The "Primordial True Scripture" is currently still in its draft version, suitable for Initiate Realm and bloodstain, but not quite realistic for achieving the Dao Body Realm.

Taking advantage of the current stable situation in Central Earth, with no major crisis erupting.

He must take this time to quickly sort out and deduce the Dao Body Chapter of the "Primordial True Scripture."

After all, his first disciple, Xiahou Shan, only has nineteen years left.

...

In the blink of an eye, five years have passed.

Inside the Hunyuan Palace, a hundred First Generation Disciples sit cross-legged on a White Jade Square, each with a solemn expression, breaths long and continuous, surrounded by intermittent, seemingly real yet illusory Primordial Qi, inhaling and exhaling endlessly.

Beside these First Generation Disciples, External Incarnations in various forms stood with a slender black ruler in hand.

If any young boy or girl makes a mistake in their Qi practice, becomes distracted, or faces an error.

A strike of the ruler immediately gathers their mind, calms the chaotic Qi, and returns them to the proper path.

"When I was practicing back then, if I had such treatment, I'm afraid I could now glimpse the Primordial Spirit Great Path." On a petal of Qinglian, Qi Xiu slightly opened his eyes, gazing at the disciples below diligently cultivating, a smile curling at the corner of his lips.

"Can you be the same as them?"

The tiny figure of Xu Zhitian transformed, standing on Qi Xiu's shoulder, lightly stroking his long beard:

"These youngsters all have mediocre aptitude and if it weren't for joining your borrow-law-for-cultivation Primordial Method, they wouldn't achieve Initiate Realm even if they practiced for a hundred years.

And with you as such a towering figure, they will never surpass you.

For them, just following in your footsteps step by step, their future minimum achievement would also be True Monarch of the Dao Body.

And all as top-notch True Monarchs like you.

This has already broken free from their original Dust Destiny.

But you are a person Asking the Dao, a pioneer, a destiny-defying man.

Under the blessing of all kinds of fates, who else should suffer if you don't? I think you've suffered too little."

Shaking his head and gesturing at Qi Xiu, Xu Zhitian continued:

"Also, that anomaly from Outside the Domain, I've almost completely investigated.

Judging by the technique of that Sword Mark from Outside the Domain, it resembles my old friend greatly."

As Xu Zhitian's words fell, Qi Xiu's eyes suddenly focused.

Five years ago, it was Xu Zhitian who told him that he sensed the aura of this old friend taking action.

He was very shocked by this news.

After all, that Shock World Sword Immortal is from the Near Ancient Era, alive until now would be tens of thousands of years.

And inadvertently, through conversations with Dongfang Qing and Shen Wansan, discovered that neither Human Clan's True Venerables nor the Dao Alliance knew about it.

Thus, the matter seemed quite strange.

Following Xu Zhitian's suggestion, Qi Xiu did not reveal this matter, but let Xu Zhitian first explore Outside the Domain to see if the source of the aura was indeed his old friend.

Now the answer is out.

"But it's not entirely the same, it can't be ruled out that someone obtained his inheritance, mimicking his actions." Xu Zhitian's speech, taken in deep breaths, made Qi Xiu momentarily speechless.

"Can't you just say it all in one breath?" Qi Xiu said helplessly.

"This is just one possibility, my old friend had incredible means, unfathomable mysteries, even I do not know how many trump cards he had.

He left for Outside the Domain that year, disappeared without a trace.

Rumor had it he felt he couldn't survive the next Primordial Spirit Tribulation.

So he went Outside the Domain, seeking a way to overcome the tribulation.

And he never returned thereafter, considered to have failed in the tribulation and perished.

However, I still don't believe he'd die under the Primordial Spirit Tribulation."

Mentioning his old friend, Xu Zhitian sighed deeply, always keeping suspicion about the seemingly enigmatic cause of death.

Especially sensing his aura unexpectedly this time, confirming his suspicion further.

"The aura of the person taking action is seventy to eighty percent similar to his, but lacks a slight essence.

Yet even so, he could dominate the present world.

His cultivation technique can only be learned by the Human Race, do you know of any True Venerables in the Human Race proficient in it?"

"There are indeed few Sword Dao True Venerables in the Human Race, and the current Dao Alliance leader is a Sword Dao True Venerable, but these True Venerables clearly aren't your mentioned old friend, otherwise, they would've been recognized long ago.

As for other Human Sword Dao True Venerables..."

Frowning slightly, Qi Xiu searched his vast knowledge in his mind, suddenly a spark of inspiration flashed, revealing a shadow of an ancient, simple three-foot-long sword.

"Got it!"

"Got it?"

"In the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains, there's a mysterious being, the demons all call him Mr. Li.

This person has a mysterious background, terrifying means, able to suppress the group of demons in the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains, ordering them around.

That year, Gao Tianxiong, the Military Governor of Dianchuan, set up a plot with the land of a province, sacrificed demons to cultivate the "Nine Deaths Immortal Heavenly Skill," reborn anew.

According to him, this "Nine Deaths Immortal Heavenly Skill" was something he obtained during a blood battle deep in the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains from the demons, who had unearthed the clothes and tomb of a mysterious existence..."

"You mean..."

Listening to Qi Xiu, Xu Zhitian slightly furrowed his brow:

"My old friend left a Daoist Inheritance in the form of a clothes tomb in the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains, but it was broken by demons, and then by chance obtained by a Human Cultivator.

This person, after cultivating, became the supreme existence of the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains."

"Only this explanation makes sense." Qi Xiu said.

"Hmm, if you put it that way, it's reasonable, after all, my old friend was eccentric and unrestrained, but often acted seemingly casually yet with hidden mysteries.

He didn't leave the inheritance in Central Earth; instead, he left it in the demon-concentrated Hundred Thousand Great Mountains.

Perhaps not without certain special intentions."

Xu Zhitian nodded, then said:

"However, why did the one who obtained his legacy not return to the Human Race, but instead become a giant of the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains, even commanding demons against the Human Race, what's the story behind it, makes one so curious.

But currently, he should still be protecting the Human Race."

"Oh? How do you say that?" Qi Xiu, hearing this, was puzzled and inquired with curiosity.

"I went to the place where the aura burst, where a whole starry sky had been obliterated, erased thoroughly.

Only a Sword Mark stood there.

Based on this person's sudden action.

I suspect that it was an alien race preparing to invade the Tianyuan Main Realm that he detected, so he took action to destroy it, leaving that Sword Mark to deter other alien races."

"What? Alien races have already arrived?" Compared to the revelation of the Shock World Sword Immortal's inheritor, the emergence of alien races weighed more heavily on Qi Xiu.

The Calamity had only begun for over a decade, and already an alien race was preparing to invade the Tianyuan Main Realm.

This was much sooner than he expected.

"It should just be an isolated incident, although the Heavenly Dao has started to gradually fade, it's not that fast yet.

I think the approaching alien race intended to seize the initiative, aiming to enter the Tianyuan Main Realm one step early, to gain an upper hand.

Only to find the strategic advantage slipping away, clashing headlong with the Sword Point." Xu Zhitian laughed.

"But it's clearly a bad signal." Tapping his finger lightly on his knee, Qi Xiu furrowed slightly, showing a contemplative look.

The Calamity started, the main characters of heaven and earth are re-selected.

Alien species from beyond the heavens are rushing in.

As the Original Ancestor Land, the Tianyuan Main Realm would sooner or later become a scorched battlefield, this is an unchangeable trajectory.

But whether it's Dao Alliance's simulations or historical records.

After the Calamity began, it would take at least several hundred years for the Heavenly Dao to fade completely, and only then could alien species from beyond the heavens enter the Tianyuan Main Realm to compete with the Human Race for the new round of heaven and earth's main character.

Yet now, only more than ten years have passed, and an alien race couldn't resist the urge, heading straight for the Tianyuan Main Realm.

Although it has been slain by that incredibly mysterious Mr. Li.

But this also revealed a troublesome piece of information for the Human Race.

The longing of alien species beyond the heavens for the Tianyuan Main Realm, for the main character of heaven and earth, is far more crazy and extreme than the previous Calamity!
