’According to this spy, it seems Xu Tianzhi’s disappearance is closely related to the Heaven-Breaking Army!’

’This Heaven-Breaking Army was just a not-so-powerful rebel army years ago.’

’At that time, I was in fierce combat with the old Nineteen and the old Thirty.’

’I had no time to deal with this rebel army.’

’Back then, according to intelligence, although this rebel army occupied the Southern Domain, its strength was indeed not significant.’

’Just by sending two noble families, this rebel army could have been completely wiped out.’

’However, little did I expect that this rebel army would now have such strength...’

The Crown Prince’s mind raced, pondering for a while, then he turned his horse around and said, "Let’s go back, I need to meet Master Kong Wo."

Since the Heaven-Breaking Army might possess the power to defeat Xu Tianzhi, then it wouldn’t just be him; even him and the armies of the Nineteen Prince and Thirty Prince would be in danger upon entering the Southern Domain.

Therefore, he wanted to ask the Abbot Kong Wo from the Great Buddha Temple for help.

Ever since the Abbot Kong Wo of the Great Buddha Temple engaged Xu Tianzhi and then led the martial monks of the Great Buddha Temple to slay some believers of the White Lotus Sect, he had temporarily returned to the Great Buddha Temple.

According to Kong Wo, although he was subduing demons and eliminating evil, after all, it was still slaughter.

So, he had to return to the temple to chant scriptures to purge some of the killing karma.

The Crown Prince’s martial arts were not weak; he was also a Gang Condensing Realm Martial Artist.

He performed lightweight skill, along with another Gang Condensation Realm Martial Artist in the army, heading towards the Capital City.

Their True Qi was enduring, their lightweight skill not weak, and after half a day, they returned to the Capital City.

Upon returning to the Capital City, he first visited the Abbot Kong Wo of the Great Buddha Temple.

Kong Wo was a monk who had lived for over two hundred years.

He was tall and sturdy, slightly overweight.

The most striking feature was the black beard under his chin.

When the Crown Prince arrived at the Great Buddha Temple, Kong Wo was in his quiet room, meditating and practicing.

Upon hearing of the Crown Prince’s visit, Kong Wo didn’t hurry; he slowly ended his practice.

He went to his bedroom, changed clothes, put on his robe, and headed to the Buddhist Hall to receive guests.

Upon seeing Kong Wo, the Crown Prince immediately told him about Xu Tianzhi’s disappearance in the Southern Domain.

Upon hearing this, Kong Wo’s thick, brush-like black eyebrows furrowed:

"Initially, when Xu Tianzhi escaped, I did not pursue him."

"One reason is he has the Summoning Skill of the White Lotus Sect, his power can suddenly increase, making it much more troublesome to deal with."

"Secondly, besides Xu Tianzhi and other remnants of the White Lotus Sect, most of the White Lotus Sect demons were subdued by our temple’s martial monks."

"With our Great Buddha Temple overseeing, relying only on Xu Tianzhi and other remnants, they wouldn’t be able to stir much trouble."

"Now, hearing what you say, you suspect that within the Southern Domain, there is a Martial Artist even more powerful than Xu Tianzhi?"

The Crown Prince nodded: "The Patriarchs of various noble families were killed, and multiple sects experienced raids."

"I think within the Liang Country Martial Arts, there must be an extremely formidable Martial Artist stirring up trouble in secret."

"Xu Tianzhi’s disappearance in the Southern Domain, I suspect, is because he encountered this mysterious warrior."

Upon hearing this, Kong Wo’s eyes gleamed a few times with brilliance.

"Do you suspect whether this Martial Artist belongs to any force?" Kong Wo asked the Crown Prince.

Although the power of the Great Buddha Temple was much stronger than the Crown Prince’s, it did not frequently gather intelligence like the Crown Prince.

However, the reason the Great Buddha Temple helped the Liang Court was also due to treating the Liang Court as a tool for gathering information and resources.

And so, they could focus on cultivation instead.

The Crown Prince recalled the spy’s information and replied: "Can’t really tell, we don’t even know when such a formidable person appeared in Liang Kingdom."

"Moreover, we don’t know who he really is."

"Some witnesses only saw him wearing a mask."

Upon hearing this, Kong Wo slightly lowered his eyelids, pondering.

In fact, the gods of various forces in the Upper Realm set their sights on the Three Thousand Worlds below.

Competition among various forces is fierce, thus all wish to attract Martial Artists capable of ascending from the Three Thousand Worlds into their sect, or forces in the Upper Realm.

Kong Wo belongs to the Buddhist Sect, entrusted by Buddha, and naturally needs to pay attention to this world from time to time.

Observing whether there are Martial Artists with the potential to ascend to the Upper Realm in this world.

If there are, if he himself can subdue this formidable Martial Artist, he will do so.

Then ordain him and train him in the Great Buddha Temple.

If that person is destined to ascend, he will notify the Receiving Arhat of this world to receive that person up.

If he cannot subdue this formidable Martial Artist, then he will inform the Receiving Arhat of this world.

Let the Arhat come down and take that formidable Martial Artist to the Upper Realm.

After hearing the Crown Prince’s words, he felt that the mysterious Martial Artist might not belong to any force, meaning he is not a follower or retainer of any deity in this world. Thus, he intended to visit the Southern Domain and induct this person into the Buddhist Sect.

Then hand this person over to the Receiving Arhat of the Upper Realm.

If the Receiving Arhat sees this person as useful, they will bring Celestial Medicine down from the Upper Realm for him.

After consuming the Celestial Medicine, his Martial Arts Cultivation can greatly improve.

Perhaps, he might also be chosen by the Receiving Arhat, and taken to the Upper Realm.

"Perhaps this person is destined for me, Buddha," Kong Wo pondered for a while, then told the Crown Prince:

"You should send troops to advance into the Southern Domain and search for this person."

"I will take refuge in a Buddhist Temple near the Southern Domain, waiting for news from you."

"If the old monk can meet this person, he will help you convert him."

Upon hearing Kong Wo offer assistance, the Crown Prince was overjoyed and immediately sent someone to inform the Nineteen Prince and Thirty Prince, asking them to also dispatch troops to the Southern Domain to search for this mysterious warrior.

...

Dragon and Serpent Mountain Range, True Profound Sect.

In front of Celestial Soldier Zheng Yue, Master Xuanxin bowed respectfully and said to Zheng Yue, "Celestial Soldier Sir, the information on that mysterious warrior you wanted is available."

Zheng Yue, upon hearing this, his eyes gleamed sharply and said to Master Xuanxin, "What information is there?"

His primary reason for descending to this world was precisely for this mysterious warrior.

Now, upon hearing news of this mysterious warrior, his interest was naturally piqued.

Master Xuanxin said, "A few days ago, the White Lotus Sect was besieged by the Court and the Great Buddha Temple together, and the White Lotus Sect Leader Xu Tianzhi escaped to the Southern Domain, but mysteriously disappeared."

"Xu Tianzhi is a renowned expert, defeating him does not exceed five fingers in number."

"Moreover, among these people, each is a well-known figure."

"Now, his disappearance in the Southern Domain, most likely he encountered that mysterious warrior with extraordinary prowess."

"And that mysterious warrior is most likely in the Southern Domain."

"The Nineteen Prince from the Liang Court has already sent someone to ask our True Profound Sect for assistance."

"To prevent encountering this person and letting them escape."

"Sir Celestial Soldier, I think this individual is the one we are meant to find, shall we embark on a journey?"

Celestial Soldier Zheng Yue pondered briefly after listening, then said, "Then let’s journey, but I need to disguise myself a bit."

Immediately, Celestial Soldier Zheng Yue retracted his Divine Power.

Instantly, the golden light generated by the flow of Divine Power on his body dissipated.

He then had Master Xuanxin find him a Daoist Robe.

Soon, Master Xuanxin ordered someone to bring the Daoist robe.

Before becoming a Celestial Soldier, in the world he originated from, he was a Daoist; wearing the Daoist robe gave him a sense of familiarity.

After tidying up, Celestial Soldier Zheng Yue, along with the members of the True Profound Sect, headed towards the Southern Domain.

...

Su Que tested the power of the Ten Yang Heaven-Burning Technique, and his lifespan increased by another thirty years.

Remaining lifespan: 3597

Seeing dawn approaching, he glided back to Jiannan Prefecture City from the sea.

Silently returning home, he sat cross-legged on the bed, cultivating the Dao Heart Demon Planting Technique.

The Demon Seed in his Dantian emitted a purple glow, illuminating the world around him.

Because these days, the desires and heart demons born during the cultivation of warrior, who were implanted with the affiliated demon seeds by him, were magnified several times by the affiliated demon seeds and transformed into spiritual waves, transmitted to his body through the connection between demon seeds.

This spiritual wave would normally damage the body and spirit of Martial Artist.

However, after reversing the side effects on his body, it began to benefit his physical body and spirit.

Dao Heart Demon Planting Technique (4th Realm Elite 85%), Dao Heart Demon Planting Technique (4th Realm Elite 86%)...

The progress in the cultivation of Dao Heart Demon Planting Technique gradually increased.

The number representing his remaining lifespan continued to flash.
