An old man glanced in the direction of the tall figure, then looked at Taixu beside him, and said solemnly, "Taixu, Elder Tianji and Tongtian are together, it seems they have some plan!"
"Over the years, there have been many practitioners who have had ulterior motives, but has anyone succeeded?" Taixu said calmly.
"That's true!"
After these words were spoken, the old man and the burly man beside him could not help but nodded.
Over countless years, there have been many practitioners who have been planning in secret, but no one has been able to take any step forward, and some have even died as a result. At their level, there is no need to take risks and they can just accumulate step by step.
"However, old man Tianji has strange methods and is good at deducing. With him around, even if Tongtian cannot take that step, I'm afraid his strength will become even stronger." The burly man frowned slightly.
Upon hearing this, the old man sneered and said, "Even if Tongtian becomes stronger, would he still dare to go to war with us? Those three will definitely not agree."
Hearing this, Taixu could not help but nod in agreement, and then he said, "The three of you would not pay attention to our usual little fights, but if something like what happened last year happens again, the three of you would definitely not sit idly by."
"It's just that seeing Tongtian becoming stronger makes me feel a little uncomfortable." The burly man said with a wry smile.
He also understood what Taixu and the old man said, but the three of them and Tongtian and his group had never gotten along well. Watching Tongtian grow stronger, he naturally felt uncomfortable.
"If you can't take that step, it will be meaningless even if you become stronger." Taixu said lightly.
After these words were spoken, the old man and the burly man fell silent. They, as practitioners, had tried countless methods, but in the end they were still unable to take that crucial step and reach that level.
The burly man seemed to have thought of something, and couldn't help but say to Taixu beside him, "By the way, Taixu, if nothing goes wrong with your disciple this time, he should be heading to my place. Do you want me to help him secretly?"
“No need for that. If he can’t even pass this test on his own, even if he is lucky enough to enter the Martial Emperor realm in the future, he won’t be able to go too far, let alone reach our level.” Taixu shook his head slightly.
When the old man heard this, he was a little amused and said, "Taixu, you are too strict with your juniors. To reach our level, it takes more than just talent and potential. You also need enough luck."
“If we can’t even reach your and my level, it will be even harder to take that step. Over the years, you basically haven’t accepted any disciples. You should know why.” Taixu sighed lightly, his expression showing a hint of sadness.
As Taixu finished speaking, the two of them immediately fell into silence.
"Forget it, forget it. Anyway, I am Taixu's disciple. You can do whatever you say. I am still happy and relaxed." The burly man chuckled.
A cup of tea was not a long time. After everyone communicated for a while, they removed the isolation formation, and the figures disappeared one by one. Soon, only Taixu and old man Tianji were left in the hall.
Taixu looked at the old man Tianji who was not far away, and said with emotion, "As expected of you, you are the old man Tianji. You are really good at deducing a path. You even knew I was looking for you."
Old Man Tianji's strength and means were far inferior to his, but his achievement in the art of deduction was beyond the reach of others, even he was far behind.
"I just deduced that there would be an unexpected gain this time, but I didn't expect it to be Senior Taixu." Old Man Tianji said with a calm smile.
Taixu heard this and couldn't help but ask curiously, "Why isn't it Tongtian?"
"What Senior Tongtian is planning is too dangerous. With his strength, it doesn't matter. If he fails, the damage won't be too great. But I don't have that ability." Old Man Tianji said with a wry smile.
When Tongtian came to him, he had already deduced and found that the matter was too dangerous. Tongtian had the ability to save his life, but he did not. Don't think that Tongtian's promise was very good. If he died, Tongtian would not have to pay anything.
A gleam of brilliance flashed in Taixu's eyes, and he slowly uttered two words, "Ancient?"
Old man Tianji smiled bitterly and nodded.
"Tongtian is really bold. He actually dares to set his sights on going there. He is not afraid of being seriously injured." Taixu snorted coldly. Although he had some guesses at the beginning, he was a little frightened when he really learned about Tongtian's plan. Practitioners at their level are very clear about the dangers there.
"As long as you don't die, there is no loss at all for practitioners at your level, right?" said old man Tianji.
Hearing this, Taixu fell silent. Indeed, as long as they were not dead, it would mean no loss to them. However, at their level, there were very few dangers that could cause their death.
Taixu looked at the old man Tianji and said slowly, "Tongtian's plan is dangerous, but I have a good opportunity here and would like to ask you for help. I will not be too involved. You and Wushi will go there. Are you interested?"
"Um?"
As soon as these words were spoken, old man Tianji's eyes lit up. The opportunities that Taixu and Tongtian, at that level, were seeking were really not something he could get involved in now. However, if he were to work with Emperor Wu Shi, it would be quite suitable for him now.
"It seems that my decision to stay this time is the right one." Old Man Tianji said with a smile.
Old Man Tianji believes that destiny is in the hands of practitioners themselves, so he gives practitioners different choices. The same is true for Old Man Tianji himself. In his view, every choice in life is a process of changing the infinite possibilities for the future.
…
Tianqian Palace.
In a wide formation, two figures were constantly fighting, and these two figures were none other than Li Chengfeng and Yang Qi.
During this period of time, Yang Qi has been practicing the Source God Canon and the Shadow Way. The Source God Canon has already reached the sixth major level of success, and is not too far from the sixth level of perfection. However, as for the Shadow Way, he is still some distance away from reaching the level of practicing the Shadow Clone.
"Bang~"
Inside the formation, a low muffled sound exploded, and two figures separated.
Li Chengfeng looked at Yang Qi in front of him and couldn't help but chuckled, "Junior brother, your strength has improved a lot during this period. You have almost reached the level of a one-star Martial Emperor in the middle stage. Ordinary one-star Martial Emperor in the early stage is no match for you."
Yang Qi's talent and potential were much higher than his. At that time, when he was at the peak of the Martial King, he barely had the combat power close to that of a half-step Martial Emperor. It was not until he followed the Great Emperor Wu Shi and became his disciple that his strength improved rapidly and he was able to fight against opponents of higher ranks. (To be continued)
