Mortal Bones

Because his trip to the wilderness this time, on the surface, was to ask for the Buddha's fate for Xuanhuangtian, so as to balance Jiuyuan.

But in fact, he and his master Lu Daoxuan were making a move for Shangqing to bear the Taixu calamity together in the future.

According to Lu Daoxuan, without this step, the difficulty of Shangqing to fight against the Taixu calamity will increase dozens of times.

Is to sacrifice the Zhenwutian in front of him to exchange a chance for the entire Shangqing world before the Taixu calamity.

Or ignore the Taixu calamity that will destroy the entire Shangqing world in three hundred years and save Zhenwutian.

This heavy choice fell on Xu Taiping's shoulders alone.

Just when Xu Taiping was in this difficult decision, Lian Tong's voice suddenly sounded in his mind--

"Xu Taiping, even if this bright moon falls on the land of Zhenwu Heaven, at least the immortal sect headed by the Nine Prefectures of Zhenwu Heaven will not be completely destroyed."

"And your Qingxuan Sect is safer than other sects because it has already opened the mountain sealing formation."

"Of course, from now on, the decline of Zhenwu's luck will become a foregone conclusion."

"But even so, I still suggest you to protect Zhenwu Heaven."

Xu Taiping frowned and asked:

"Why?"

Lian Tong replied:

"People are short-sighted. They will not be grateful to you for the life in the Taixu Calamity hundreds of years later. They will only remember your decision today, which buried hundreds of millions of lives in Zhenwu Heaven."

Xu Taiping shook his head expressionlessly and said:

"Why do I need their gratitude?"

As he said this, he looked up at the mirage in the sky again, then took a deep breath and said:

"I can't save many people, I just want to fight for a chance of life for my master and all the brothers and sisters in Qingxuan Sect."

After saying this, his eyes, which were originally a little confused, suddenly became firm again.

Immediately, he straightened his chest again, and then said with a firm look in his eyes: "As long as I can do it, even if I bear the infamy of the entire Shangqing world, what does it matter?"

When Liantong heard this, he laughed and said:

"Very good, you are worthy of being the person I chose to be in harmony with the Tao!"

"I will bear this infamy for thousands of years with you!"

Xu Taiping nodded expressionlessly, then looked up at the phantom of the mirage and said loudly:

"Wuxin Demon Emperor, losing the Falling Moon will only make your Jiuyuan's doomsday come faster!"

When the people watching the battle heard this, they were stunned at first, and then they all exclaimed in surprise.

Even Xiahou You was puzzled and asked:

"Is Xu Taiping planning to give up Zhenwu Heaven?"

Almost at the same time, the Heartless Demon Emperor shouted coldly:

"Xu Taiping, have you thought it through?"

Xu Taiping did not answer the Heartless Demon Emperor, but turned to look in the direction where the ancient Buddha Randeng's voice came from before, and said loudly:

"Ancient Buddha Randeng, please use Xuanhuang as your dojo in the future to forge a Buddhist sword for Shangqing to expel Jiuyuan!"

Soon, the voice of the ancient Buddha Randeng resounded through the Wild Heaven again:

"Randeng, I will definitely live up to the trust of Taoist Taiping!"

This statement was the final word for Xu Taiping's decision to abandon Zhenwu.

For a while, the overwhelming curses and insults, like a tide, gathered towards the Wild Heaven where Xu Taiping was.

But Xu Taiping still had a firm look in his eyes and stood upright in the same place, without the slightest sign of wavering.

That look seemed to say, come on, curse me.

Even if there are tens of millions of people who curse me and hate me.

Even if this curse will be remembered for thousands of years.

I, Xu Taiping, can shoulder it today.

…

Zhenwu Heaven.

Qingxuan Sect.

Youxuan Demon Cave.

“Boom boom boom…”

Accompanied by a heavy sound of the mechanism turning, the demon-sealing door in the Youxuan Demon Cave, which had been sealed for nearly a hundred years, slowly opened.

A skinny old man with iron chains all over his body walked out of the door with firm steps.

The old man was Lu Daoxuan.

After walking out of the Demon-Suppressing Door, Lu Daoxuan walked to the huge spiritual mirror in the center of the Youxuan Demon Cave without saying a word.

Zhao Qian, who was standing next to the spirit mirror, said solemnly:

"Uncle Master, Taiping finally chose to bear the infamy and abide by the agreement he made with us that day, and landed in Xuanhuang."

Lv Daoxuan did not speak, but silently looked at the figure of Xu Taiping standing with his back to the crowd in the spirit mirror, listening to the abuse in the spirit mirror that was like a tide rushing towards him.

After a long time, Lu Daoxuan finally spoke:

"Disciple, you have worked hard these days."

"You have been making decisions all along, and today, let me, your master, share some of the burden for you."

When he said this, Lu Daoxuan's eyes were stern and he said:

"How can I, your master, watch you bear this eternal infamy!"

When he said this, Lu Daoxuan looked at Zhao Qian and asked:

"Zhao Qian, is everything ready?"

Zhao Qian looked serious and his eyes were firm He nodded firmly and said:

"In Qingxuan Sect, except for the peak master, elders and disciples of the same generation as Linglong, all inner and outer disciples have been sent out of Yunlu by me!"

Lv Daoxuan nodded and asked:

"How many people are left in Qingxuan now?"

Zhao Qian replied:

"Including you and me, there are a total of 367 people!"

Zhao Qian immediately added:

"Although there are not many people, they are all Qingxuan elites, and each of them can die for Qingxuan."

Lu Daoxuan looked at Zhao Qian deeply, then stretched out his hand and said: "Give me the imperial seal."

Zhao Qian took out a brocade box from his sleeve, handed it to Lu Daoxuan, and said solemnly:

"Little Master Uncle, after using this imperial seal, both the corpse in the devil's cave behind you and Yu Xuzi who has been sealed will definitely wake up one after another."

"And the Qingxuan Sect will... also be swallowed up by the Yunmengze Secret Realm and the Taixuan Sect ruins, and will become part of the Taixuan Ghost Domain from now on."

"Until the door to the Yunmeng Secret Realm is reopened, it will be possible to come out."

"However, it will take at least a hundred years for the Yunmengze Secret Realm to be opened this time. With just 367 of us, it may be difficult to sustain it until then."

Lu Daoxuan asked with a smile:

"Are you scared?"

"Afraid, of course." Zhao Qian grinned and nodded:

"But what I'm afraid of is that our death will be too ugly. When Taiping and the others enter the Yunmeng Secret Realm a hundred years from now and see our bones, they will laugh at me."

Lu Daoxuan smiled heartily when he heard this, then took the imperial seal and promised:

"Don't worry, as long as your junior uncle and I are here, I will never let you die in an ugly way!"

Zhao Qian grinned again when he heard this.

Then, he looked at the Fang Emperor's Seal in Lu Daoxuan's hand and asked curiously:

"Uncle Junior, after taking over the position of Emperor Zhenwutian, can you still stay in the Taixuan Ghost Realm with us?"

Lu Daoxuan raised the corner of his mouth and smiled:

"Your junior uncle, I am not one of those half-hearted emperors. It was me who asked for this Zhenwu Emperor's Seal, not me who asked for it!"

"So as long as I want, I can stay or go without any hindrance!"

After saying this, Lu Daoxuan glanced at Xu Taiping in the spiritual mirror, then stretched out his hand to hold the Fang Emperor's Seal firmly and injected his true energy into it.

"boom!!……"

Along with an ear-splitting sound of Qi explosion, a wave of aura like the power of heaven suddenly spread from Lu Daoxuan's body.

Immediately, Lu Daoxuan said loudly:

"The new emperor of Zhenwutian is Lu Daoxuan!"

"Today, shout to the five directions of heaven and earth!"
