Chapter 567 -406: Defeated Before the Battle
“I will not go, farewell.”
Song Lingxue spoke, her tone still devoid of any fluctuation, and after speaking, she turned around and left.
Such a straightforward attitude left the many Divine Martial Heavenly Generals in the hall momentarily stunned.
Fu Pinglan was also momentarily taken aback, but he did not say much. Retrieving some memories after regaining his eyes had greatly increased his tolerance, and Song Lingxue’s attitude now seemed at most a bit neglectful and disrespectful.
Song Lingxue left the great hall, walked away from the core area of the Martial Hall, and then sent a message towards the Immortal Domain.
…
…
Inside the great hall.
With Song Lingxue taking the lead, some of the Divine Martial Heavenly Generals immediately spoke up in succession:
“My injuries have not healed, I need some time to recuperate, it is difficult to fight, I hope the Hall Master will forgive me.”
“Recently, the Immortal Alliance has shown some movements. I still have the Martial Ancestor’s orders to inspect the border, it’s inconvenient to go.”
“Within the All Heavens Realm, the cleanup work is not yet finished, I cannot leave my post, it’s difficult to serve the Hall Master.”
In the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, nearly half of the Divine Martial Heavenly Generals had successively found various reasons to leave, not intending to participate in the pursuit of the Daoist Ancestor Zheng Chu and the Chaos Sea.
Among them were not a few core elites of the militant faction.
As for whether those words were true or just excuses, that was another matter.
Fu Pinglan’s expression was calm, showing no sign of happiness or anger. He glanced at the remaining people in the hall and nodded:
“We depart in six Hours. Everyone, prepare yourselves.”
As soon as the words fell, in the blink of an eye, only Fu Pinglan and Heavenly Punishment were left in the hall.
“Are you really confident in killing the Daoist Ancestor?”
A hint of hesitation appeared on Heavenly Punishment’s stern face.
That is the Daoist Ancestor, who retreated unscathed from that terrifying battle in Ancient Times and is the only one who has survived to this day, controlling a quarter of Heaven’s Fortune alone.
Even if he was confident that in the Ancestor Realm Domain he was not weaker than others, at this moment, his heart still felt uncertain. Could they accomplish what the Ancient Martial Ancestor and the Ancestor of Ancient Immortals could not?
Even with the help of the Martial Dao Ancestor Soldier, the odds for the two of them joining forces might still not be great.
“Wan Wenfeng will also be going on this journey.”
Fu Pinglan shook his head slightly, thoughts surging uncontrollably in his eyes:
“What I want to kill is the present Zheng Chu, not the Daoist Ancestor of those times. The quarter of Heaven’s Fortune is no longer with him.”
Hearing this, Heavenly Punishment couldn’t help but be taken aback, and blurted out, “Where is Heaven’s Fortune then?”
“I don’t know. When Heaven’s Fortune was hidden, he didn’t take me with him.”
Fu Pinglan’s breathing was slightly heavy, and his expression became more suppressed: “Do you know how I regained my eyes?”
Before Heavenly Punishment could speak, Fu Pinglan continued:
“When I went this time, he said my death was imminent, so he returned my eyes to leave a complete body.”
Blood vessels faintly appeared in his eyes, and his killing intent was near boiling:
“From my years beside him, I saw some clues. The Zheng Chu I saw was not born in the past but came from the future!”
“The future?”
Heavenly Punishment was momentarily stunned, then suddenly realized: “Are you saying that he might not have become an Ancestor yet?!”
“Perhaps even weaker! Zheng Chu was able to find future allies in that Ancient battle precisely because he himself is from the future, so naturally, some would help him!”
Fu Pinglan’s tone trembled lightly, eyes filled with nearly frenzied excitement:
“In this era, Zheng Chu might be at the weakest point in his life!”
“Heavenly Punishment, if we kill Zheng Chu at this moment, it means there might be a chance to rewrite the past. The Ancient Martial Ancestor might not fall, and then there would be an opportunity to alter fate for the Martial Path!”
“But…”
Hearing this, Heavenly Punishment hesitated to speak, with no hint of joy in his expression, instead falling into a long silence.
Fu Pinglan sensed his odd reaction, a trace of doubt in his expression:
“Speak freely if you have something to say.”
Heavenly Punishment took a deep breath and said slowly: “If you and I achieving the Ancestor results now, does it not already imply that the past has undergone no change?”
If everything Fu Pinglan just said was true, and the Daoist Ancestor is indeed a being from the future, then this time, it seems they are doomed to the outcome even before their intervention. ƒreewebηoveℓ.com
They absolutely could not kill the Daoist Ancestor.
Defeated without a fight.
These words were like a bucket of cold water, instantly bringing Fu Pinglan to his senses.
He understood that what Heavenly Punishment said was correct.
If the Ancestor Realm in the era of the Ancient Martial Ancestor does not die, how can there be a chance for later generations to emerge?
Moreover, if the Daoist Ancestor had not emerged, causing the turbulence in fate, whether the Martial Path could rise would also be questionable.
He was confused by being in the situation, blinded by the river of time, anger clouded his mind, leading to too one-sided considerations.
“Between Zheng Chu and me, if he does not die, I certainly will.”
Coming to this realization, Fu Pinglan did not abandon his previous thoughts, and with an expression of solemnity, he spoke slowly:
“I will eventually fall by his hand. Returning my eyes, letting me come back to die, is what he foretold about my future. This battle is unavoidable, and now my only option is to strike first.”
“If so, then let us fight!”
Upon hearing Fu Pinglan’s words, Heavenly Punishment immediately nodded without a trace of hesitation, and the blood stain in his brow glowed brilliantly:
“As people of the Martial Path, how can we avoid the edge of others for the sake of preserving our Blood Qi? Cultivation itself is going against the current, either you die or I die. This is what you taught me back then.”
After saying this, he raised another question: “But would the Ancestor Realm of this Vast Universe be willing to lend a path?”
“From my time beside Zheng Chu, I have gained some things after all. Using a favor of his should not be difficult.”
Fu Pinglan nodded slightly: “Taking this opportunity, first gather that Half of Heaven’s Fortune from the Chaos Sea. Now, Zheng Chu might not even know where the quarter of Heaven’s Fortune is hidden.”
…
…
Immortal Domain.
Great Immortal Realm.
Above the sky, ninety-nine rounds of crimson-gold suns pierced through by chains made of Immortal Flame, flanked by thousands of stars arrayed like shattered jade set in the heavens, their scorching Immortal Light spreading through layers of cloud seas, reflecting myriad colors like glazed glass.
An entirely jade-white Fairy Palace hung invertedly in the sky, with Jade Bells hanging from the flying eaves, swaying gently in the breeze, echoing with ethereal reverberations.
Inside the hall, only one silhouette sat cross-legged, exuding dense Moonlight that obscured the form and appearance.
She looked down at the message in her hand, seemingly deep in thought.
“Chaos Sea…”
