In the middle realm, Tian Shifu.

    Above the misty peaks of the mountains, an imposing palace stands majestically, as if it were theCelestial Palace in the heavens. Above it, the sky is draped in dense black clouds, and thunder rolls continuously.

    Boom

    A bolt of thunder suddenly strikes down, hitting the imposing palace. Flames erupt on the tiles and roof, consuming the entire structure.

    Inside the palace, it was extraordinarily quiet, as if it were in a separate world.

    An old man in a white robe, with a beard like a mountain goat, stands in the back hall of the palace, leaning against the wall and looking at a blue light column with his hands on his back.

    A faintly visible figure of a spectral white appeared within the empty light column.

    Clad in the same white robe, his appearance was exceedingly aged, as if he had entered his twilight years. But in the next moment, his features underwent a transformation; his white hair gradually turned black, and his appearance also grew younger.

    In a vague way, his appearance could be seen to be similar to Xiao Tianyi, especially his eyes. But there were also several layers of hardness and sternness in his eyes.

    "Zhang Daocheng, the 13th Tianshi in the Thirteenth Generation of Tian Shifu, greets the First Ancestor."

    The white-robed elder bowed with both hands, bowing respectfully and humbly.

    Zhang Tianling, the first Tianshi of Tian Shifu, the founder of Tian Shifu. He was also the one who, with his own strength, saved the world from chaos and saved nine countries from water and fire. Later, he was revered by people as the Martial Ancestor.

    Under his guidance, martial arts flourished across the nine countries. The world's strongest warriors gathered in Zhongzhou. Later, he made Tian Shifu the most powerful force in the nine countries and ruled them for ten thousand years.

    And within this column of light, the man who is gradually becoming younger, under the guidance of the elder, is none other than Zhang Tianling, the first-generation Tianshi who founded Tian Shifu.

    "My disciple is ungrateful, I couldn't save the old ancestor in time, causing him such great hardship..."

    The white-robed elder Zhang Daocheng sighed lightly, his voice tinged with a hint of self-blame, "But I do not understand who the person named Chen Mo is. Why must he kill the old ancestor... Though my disciple is proficient in divination, I have only calculated that he will harm the old ancestor. There is no way to know why he does so."

    Zhang Tianlin's expression was not good, and his eyes flickered slightly, "He always anticipates my moves and constantly pressures me. There must be an expert behind him guiding him. If I'm not mistaken, he might be just a pawn in someone else's hands..."

    Zhang Daocheng gently touched his white beard, his old eyes narrowed slightly, and there was a slight fierce color in his gaze. "The old ancestor was only concerned with the great cause of our human race, but little did he know that someone would harm you so ruthlessly. They don't fear becoming the villains of our human race?"

    Zhang Tianlin nodded slightly, his face serious and earnest. "A great calamity looms over our race, but merely one-grade strength is insufficient to protect our human race. To gain immortal power and an immortal body, I am willing to reincarnate nine times. All of this is for the grand cause of our human race..."

    "And they continue to harm me only for their own selfish desires. They don't care about becoming sinners of the human race; they are only interested in seeing me die..."

    "The one who always outwits you and always holds you in check, old ancestor, do you know who it is behind this?"

    Zhang Daocheng stroked his white beard, curiously inquiring.

    Zhang Tianlin coldly laughed, "Just remnants from ten thousand years ago."

    "Remnants from ten thousand years ago? Old ancestor, I have heard that when Tian Shifu was first established ten thousand years ago, there were many people who opposed us. Are the remnants you mentioned those people?"

    "Yes."

    Zhang Tianlin's eyes flashed, and he nodded seriously, "They are people who do not care about the safety of our human race. It was I who saved the human race from destruction. They not only don't appreciate it but also repay me with malice, truly being petty and narrow-minded..."

    Zhang Daocheng paused in deep thought, his expression filled with confusion. "Old ancestor, what happened ten thousand years ago? Why did they want to oppose our Tian Shifu?"

    Zhang Tianlin clenched his fists, keeping them hidden behind his back without showing any emotion. "You need not inquire further about this matter. You just need to know that our Tian Shifu is for the greater cause of the human race. It doesn't matter if others don't understand me. As a Tianshi, you must support me in any way."

    "Student, remember well."

    Zhang Daocheng bowed respectfully, not pursuing any further questions. Instead, he changed the subject and said, "Now that the old ancestor's plans for this life have completely failed, what should we do next? Must the old ancestor come back in another life?"

    To forge an immortal body and gain immortal power, Zhang Tianlin needs to undergo continuous reincarnation and rebirth to temper his three souls and seven spirits. Each soul or spirit requires a single life to complete, totaling ten reincarnations.

    He has already completed nine lives, and with one more, he can obtain immortal power. The immortal body is also under preparation. However, he never expected that Chen Mo would destroy everything at this crucial moment.

    "No."

    Zhang Tianlin shook his head, "In that earlier battle with Chen Mo, I injured my fundamental essence, losing all three souls and seven spirits. Without enough spiritual power for reincarnation and rebirth, this matter is temporarily put aside. Let's talk about it after I recover."

    Since Zhang Tianlin had other plans, Zhang Daocheng also continued to press on, bowing and gesturing for the former to call him again when necessary, before turning to leave. However, he was suddenly called out.

    "There is something that truly requires your assistance."

    Zhang Daocheng was slightly taken aback, "Old ancestor, please speak. If my disciple can do it, I will not refuse."

    "Now, I only have my spirit body and my three souls and seven spirits are completely damaged. I need to prepare many precious materials to restore them..."

    "The old ancestor needs whatever it takes, and my disciple will definitely find it for you."

    "No need, you just need to summon a few people for me. This matter does not require your trouble..."

    Zhang Daocheng hesitated for a moment before nodding seriously. After a round of inquiries, he left to help him find the people he needed.

    Zhang Tianlin's expression turned dark as he watched the distant figure fade away. "This Zhang Daocheng talks about the great cause of our human race, but he seems to be of little use. I still need people I can trust." Zhang Tianlin's right hand clenched into a tight fist, and a hint of malevolence flashed in his eyes. "Chen Mo, I remember this grudge. One day, I will make you repay it a hundredfold. You, along with the people behind you, your relatives and friends, none of them will be spared."

    "Chen Mo, just wait for me."

    ...

    "Achoo"

    Chen Mo sneezed and then slowly opened his eyes, looking at the spacious palace chamber before him. He couldn't help but rub his nose. "Has the weather cooled down? Yes, it's autumn already."

    Chen Mo yawned and then stood up, stretching his arms. It had been over a month since he was forcefully brought to Tian Mo Sect by Liu Wuxin.

    For the past month, under Liu Wuxin's protection, his life had gradually returned to normal. Each day was spent either in cultivation or wandering around the palaces of Tian Mo Sect.

    With the abundant resources of Tian Mo Sect, his qi and blood realm had unconsciously broken through the seventh realm, and the sixth realm was just around the corner.

    In Tian Mo Sect, Chen Mo had almost nothing to worry about. Whatever he wanted, Liu Wuxin would provide for him. At this moment, he felt like a pampered playboy kept by a wealthy woman.

    But at the same time, Chen Mo also discovered a very serious problem...

    Chen Mo pushed open the door of his bedroom, and at the door, Ning Xin and Li Yueyue were waiting outside. Upon seeing him, both of their faces lit up with warm smiles.

    "I want to go for a walk."

    Chen Mo paused for a moment before saying.

    Ning Xin and Li Yueyue immediately changed their expressions, "Mr. Chen, the emperor said that it's dangerous outside. Without her order, you must not leave at your own will. Please don't make it difficult for us..."

    Yes, the serious problem that Chen Mo realized was that he had been under house arrest...
