"Not from the Sea of Realms?"

Ji Jingqiu was taken aback, which meant his earlier assumptions had been completely overturned.

Not being from the Sea of Realms also meant it wasn't an old acquaintance he had met on the Path of Return to Truth.

No, not necessarily...

Ji Jingqiu's pupils contracted slightly, a startling thought emerged, he quickly said:

"She comes from the Other Shore? All three invincibles of this shore are from the Other Shore?!"

Feng Ming pondered and said, "That I'm not sure of. I only had a confrontation with this person, at that time she wasn't called Red Lotus, her strength was not weak, but she was constantly 'excluded' by Heaven and Earth, it felt like the whole world did not accept her."

Feng Ming added, "The nature of the power she commands is quite peculiar, which left a deep impression on me, so I paid attention, and even consulted the Ancestor Master about it. At that time, the Ancestor Master had just returned from the Void Realm, and after hearing about this, he was unusually concerned and specifically searched for Red Lotus's trace, but ultimately to no avail."

"It was also the Ancestor Master who personally asserted that she should not be a being from the Sea of Realms."

Shou Ji's voice suddenly recalled: "The three on this shore only became active after the known Transcendent Ancestors visibly left the Sea of Realms. Whenever a new ancestor is born, they fall silent."

The sword light hummed, a chilling Sword Intent locked onto Feng Ming: "Ning means... she was knocked down from the 'boundary'?"

It wasn't until now.

Feng Ming noticed the presence of this one.

Previously it made no sound, silent as if merging into the void, with no sense of existence until it took the initiative to reveal its track and show its edge, abruptly breaking into everyone's perception.

Even as strong as Feng Ming was, it was no exception.

Upon hearing the voice, Feng Ming initially only glanced but instantly became solemn, and with an exceptionally polite demeanor, said:

"May I ask, are you the 'Sword Light of Peace' left in the world by the 'Taiping Sword Master'?"

Ji Jingqiu's expression was odd, so it wasn't the Moon-cutting Sword Light, but the Taiping Sword Light?

Then why are you slashing at the moon every day?

Shou Ji and the others' expressions changed drastically, as transcendence disciples, they were well-versed in the history of each Transcendent Ancestor.

This one is not merely the sword light left by the Sword Master, but a special existence akin to an anchor in the world, saying it's his clone wouldn't be an issue!

"Greetings, senior!"

"Greetings, senior! I come from the Eternal Pavilion, the handwritten notes left by the Ancestor Master mentioned the elegance of the senior!"

All the mighty ones respectfully greeted.

Only people like Shou Ji from the Pantheon felt somewhat awkward.

This Sword Master once left a Taoist Inheritance called the [Human World Pavilion], which was later taken down by their own ancestor from the Pantheon, annexed, becoming one of the many halls.

Though the ancestor did not drastically transform the Human World Pavilion, retaining its original Dao lineage, and did not interfere with its inheritance operation, the fact of annexation could not be changed.

Moreover...

Why does this one guard by Ji Jingqiu's side?

The sword light shimmered slightly, responding with a tone neither warm nor cold:

"Hmm."

"Back then, was it Ning who personally determined the person was not from the Sea of Realms, but from the Returning to Truth Land?"

Feng Ming cupped his hands and said: "Indeed, but the Ancestor Master never said she was from Returning to Truth Land."

The sword light transmitted to Ji Jingqiu:

"It's eighty to ninety percent probable, in fact, the reason the ancestors know about Returning to Truth Land is not only because 'You' claimed to have personally visited but also because occasionally people fall from the interface into the Sea of Realms."

"These people, for various reasons, fall into the Sea of Realms, always with the intent of returning to their homeland, even seeking out the ancestor-level figures, hoping for their power to return to Returning to Truth Land."

"Think back carefully, have you seen her on the Path of Return to Truth—I mean, as your opposite."

The sword light intended to remind Ji Jingqiu to focus not on the people from various gates but on the enemies they encountered after embarking on the Path of Return to Truth!

Ji Jingqiu seemed to be pondering, but he was considering something else.

Didn't this fellow have no memories related to the Path of Return to Truth?

Why does he now know so clearly?

"Are you saying that the reason this person fell into the Sea of Realms could potentially be related to me?" Ji Jingqiu communicated spiritually with the sword light.

"I'm not sure, but her attitude towards you is distinctly peculiar; her killing intent is firm, yet she forcibly suppresses it as if there's no urgent rush." The sword light said.

Ji Jingqiu murmured: "Back then, you also slew countless enemies, so did all the ancestors. It might not be me."

"Whoever leads, bears the grudge." The sword light remarked nonchalantly.

Ji Jingqiu's mouth twitched, what truly made him unable to hold back was the message subtly revealed by the sword light. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

How did this guy know it was him leading on the Path of Return to Truth?

In an instant, Ji Jingqiu guessed the answer.

It's no coincidence, first, there was Master Ning, and now the sword light.

There might even be others!

This Xu guy...

Ji Jingqiu ground his teeth, sensing Green Master's silence.

The spirit of the Divine Weapon began merging with Green Master, during this period he couldn't leave the Void Realm and even needed to proceed to the River of Destiny, using the river's power to temper the sword body.

During this, he might also make up for the lack of Heavenly Destiny's response when he broke through to Heavenly Venerable.

Ah well, considering this grand gift, let's not argue with that fellow.

As for Red Lotus...

Ji Jingqiu truly couldn't remember.

On the Path of Return to Truth, the 'enemies' they encountered, as per Xu and others, were mostly Heavenly Souls and Earthly Souls.

Once beings from the Sea of Realms reincarnate, the Heavenly Soul and Earth Soul scatter, leaving only the Seven Spirits intertwined with the Human Soul.

No one knew where the two souls of Heaven and Earth went until they reached the opposite side of the Path of Return to Truth.

Back then, the master of Nether Mansion intended to promote the establishment of reincarnation, probably because he had long known all of this.
