The Devilish Immortal Chapter 24

Chapter 24 The Origin

“That, that… three ancestor seniors, is there any wrong in the swordsmans.h.i.+p of mine?” Lyu Liang tried to stay calm. He scratched his head and had no choice but to speak first.

“Your, your swordsmans.h.i.+p! Are they Unification Move and Wind-dodging Move from the Xuanyuan Swordsmans.h.i.+p?” Hunyuan Sword Immortal came to consciousness first, face full of incredibility.

Lyu Liang was in a panic! How come? This sword technique should be created by the cheap master and was reserved for his pro-disciples. How could others know so clearly? Was it that while master and others were fighting, he was seen by those with intentions?

On the occasion when Lyu Liang was having an unsettled state of mind, the founding father of Sword Character made a heavy sigh. He walked to Lyu Liang and said sternly, “I could have searched your soul, but in that case, immeasurable damage will be made on your Divine Soul. So, I hope that you can tell me some things originally. Of course, you can listen to me and then make a decision. Even if you insist on not saying it, I will not blame you. I will not search in your soul. However, I can no longer accept you as a disciple of the Sword Character Immortal Palace.”

Subsequently, the eyes of the founding father of Sword Character suddenly became soft. He looked Lyu Liang up and down and said with a smile, “If there is no accident, you should have the Five-element Bead, and your const.i.tution is five elemental too. Your Mind Mantra must be Xuanyuan Mantra. This Feiling sword was the one that big brother robbed from me in the past. Now it seems that not only you are the master of it, but the sword had produced its spirit.”

Lyu Liang’s body trembled tremendously. He looked at the Almighty Immortal ancestor in front of him. He muttered to himself, “Elder, elder brother? You, you…” He didn’t know what to say, the founding father of Sword Character seemed to know more details than the Hunyuan Sword Immortal. Not only that, looking at his meaning, the Dreamless Heavenly Lord was somehow his elder brother?

“The founding father of Sword Character was just the name that the outsider named me when I created the Sword Character Immortal Palace. You called, I called, others called, and no one remembered my original name. My common name is Zhang Mengzu, and Zhang Mengdao is my biological elder brother! He should be the one who pa.s.sed you the mind mantra and swordsmans.h.i.+p. For you, he should be the Dreamless Heavenly Lord, and that may make you more familiar.” The founding father of Sword Character seemed to be speaking to himself. He stared at the sky. n.o.body knew what he was thinking about.

After a while, he turned his attention to Lyu Liang, and his eyes were full of caring love. “You should have entered the s.p.a.ce he created, and you are also a pro-disciple of my elder brother, right? Is his life-bonded magic treasure Virtual Sacred Tree still there? There is also a woman of the Xuanli Clan from the Devil Realm, is she okay there? Her name is Xuanli Feiwu, isn’t it? Now I think of it, the one-off attack that you killed the enemy of Nascent Soul Stage, was not some one-time usage strange treasure. I remembered that elder brother once took out a devil treasure called ‘Devil Thunder Wing’ and showed off its power to me. It seems that it is similar to the scene he described at the time.”

At this point, Lyu Liang had no more doubts. Now, his over-pressured body and mind suddenly had a kind of relief like when he dispelled the clouds and saw the sun. For a long time, this was the top-secret message that he couldn’t pa.s.s on the ears of others, so he had to avoid getting along with others, and always beware of others’ detection.

But now, he had met Master’s younger brother, who also knew the existence of Senior Feiwu. These secrets in Lyu Liang’s heart, in the eyes of others, were so clear without any doubts. What else was there to hide? There was no need to hide it. How can Master’s biological younger brother hurt him? If he was really malicious, it was impossible for him to have a heart-to-heart with Lyu Liang!

Thinking of this, Lyu Liang’s tears have flowed down the cheeks. Those grievances and the burden of weight that he bore seemed to found a gap to release eventually. He could not control but to burst out.

“Then, then senior was counted as my Martial Uncle? All good! They are all good! Senior Virtual Sacred Tree, Senior Feiwu are all good. However, my master went to the Sunset Kingdom of Ghost Realm thousands of years ago, and has not yet returned…” When he mentioned the clueless Dreamless Heavenly Lord, Lyu Liang’s heart wrenched fiercely. His face couldn’t help but reveal a sorrowful look.

But now, there was another one that was more emotional than Lyu Liang, that was, the Xuan Nyu Fairy. At this moment, the Almighty Immortal, already burst into tears, like a weak woman. She rushed over and pulled Lyu Liang’s arm, crying and sobbing uncontrollably, “I beg you, tell me! Where is Big Brother Mengdao? I beg you!”

Lyu Liang was stunned for a moment. Even a fool could see that Xuan Nyu Fairy definitely had a special feeling for his master. “Oh my G.o.d, did she like master? Err, think about it now, Senior Feiwu seemed to…” Lyu Liang exclaimed! Master was a master, really not an ordinary person. Needless to say that he had an Almighty Immortal brother, and there was also an Almighty Immortal admirer. Oh, yes, Senior Feiwu was not weak either. Back then, she was the number one fighter in the Devil Realm! Was Master really an old man? Not likely…

Lyu Liang hesitated no more and narrated everything that happened after he had entered the Virtual Land. He even revealed his own secrets of life without any reservations. At the same time, Black also emerged from the top of Lyu Liang and met several people.

A one-horned little guy also emerged from the head of the founding father of Sword Character, and it was the Heaven Peeking Beast. It was also very happy to see Black coming out. Soon, the two chaotic divine beasts went to talk among themselves.

“No wonder during the Spiritual Root test, Little Tian did not manage to detect you! I still wondered why it didn’t tell me afterward. It turns out that you are also a contractor of chaotic divine beasts.” The founding father of Sword Character suddenly realized everything.

When Lyu Liang mentioned Xuanli Feiwu, the eyes of the Xuan Nyu Fairy dimmed for a moment, but then they gave off a sharp light. She still pulled Lyu Liang and asked, “Sure enough, the result of my heavenly body prediction is to fall on you! You said your master went to the Sunset Kingdom of the Ghost Realm thousands of years ago? Then there is no news of him?”

“Junior Sister, don’t worry since there is no change in the Virtual Sacred Tree, the elder brother must be still alive. However, it is possible that he was finding a target but could get it or he might be trapped somewhere temporarily. You also know about the special features of the Sunset Kingdom. It’s not a place that we can go easily.” Founding father of Sword Character had wholly recovered to his normal state. Now, he also began to persuade the Xuan Nyu Fairy. He knew too clear about his sister’s feelings for his elder brother.

The founding father of Sword Character looked lovingly at Lyu Liang in front of his eyes and said, like an elder caring for the younger generation, “You are still somewhat unclear about our relations.h.i.+p with your master. I will explain to you one by one. I am born with your master, and we are biological brothers. We grew up in the Tianshui country in the Wufang Territory. After entering the path of cultivation, until we reach the Gold Core Stage, we explored and fought together and did not join any clan.

“Later, when we traveled to the Imperial Mausoleum country of the Canglan Territory, we met a powerful figure senior. After he saw the two of us, he nodded to me first. Then he shook his head towards my elder brother. He said I was born with the spiritual roots of the three attributes of gold, fire, and water which were suitable for inheriting his mantle in Sword Tao, Pill Tao, Talisman Tao, and Formation Tao. So he hoped to accept me as the only pro-disciple. As for my big brother, he had a swordsman body that was rare to see between heaven and earth. Only the top powerful figure of Sword Tao could craft and make the best of it. Although my master had great achievements on the four Taos at that time, the Sword Tao was not his strongest. He was a bit far from the top standard too. Therefore, if he taught my elder brother, then it might mislead him.

“At the time, the ability to get the favor of that power figure can make us crazy. I immediately wors.h.i.+pped the teacher and expressed willingness to enter his guild to be his disciple. But I also hope that the Master can help my elder brother. Sure enough, Master did not let us disappoint. Under his recommendation, elder brother joined the top clan of the Canglan Territory, the Yishui Clan. The chief of the clan was the top powerful figure in Sword Tao recognized by the Mortal Realm. Tianjian Saint was also a powerful Almighty Immortal. Before the separation, Master gave the elder brother a piece of jade. It was said that as long as the energy of jade was stimulated, big brother could find our aura so that we brothers could meet in the future.

“At this time, I also knew the name of Master. He was the Tianbao Saint, one of the three most famous Free Immortals in the Mortal Realm. At that time, Master had been wandering in his life, and his life was bland. The only joy in life was to accompany his wife. Also, my Master’s wife was also the Xuan Nyu Saint, another one of the three great Free Immortals. Later, I followed the Master back to their cave in Tianshui Country. After another month, I saw that the Master’s wife also brought a pro-disciple back. It is now the Xuan Nyu Fairy.

“Under the coaching of Master and Master’wife, the junior sister and I made rapid progress, and soon we reached the early-stage of Void Return. At this time, my big brother also came. To my surprise, he had already reached the middle-stage of Void Return and actually realized the power of the law, which was impossible to comprehend at the stage. He was even listed as the head disciple in Yishui Clan! I was sincerely proud of my elder brother!

“Later, my brother often came to talk and train with me. My junior sister also became a good friend with him at that time. I remembered that the last time I saw my elder brother, his eyes sparkled with unprecedented excitement. He said that he finally found a good opponent of the same stage! A Devil Clan woman who had defeated him five times! The last time I saw my eldest brother, he was already in the late-stage of Void Return. That time he told us that he had seen the hope of defeating his opponent and that next time, when he came back, we could wait for him to come and drink the celebration wine.

“Unfortunately, my elder brother failed to fulfill his promise of the time. After a few days, the news of elder brother betraying the clan and escaping to the Devil Realm came over. My junior sister and I were shocked at the moment! We didn’t believe it, we went crazy and wanted to go to the Imperial Mausoleum Country for an answer. But we were stopped by Master and his wife. They asked us to settle down first, and he would personally go to Yishui Clan to ask clearly.

“After a month, Master returned. I could feel that he was several times older than before. He told us that the Blood Divine Sect and the Yishui Clan cooperated with the two big families from the Devil Realm and eradicated the Xuanli Clan. And my elder brother, in order to save those Xuanli people who had entered the deadly trap, chose to be enemies with Yishui Clan. Eventually, he was exhausted and escaped to the Devil Realm, and no one knew about his whereabouts since then.

“Master warned us that with our current strength, we were not qualified to dig out the truth. The only thing we could do was to upgrade our strength. Since then, my junior sister and I had started to practice like crazy. About a hundred years later, both of us successfully survived the ordeal and became a Fairy Immortal.

“At that time, Master and his wife, who had already reached the peak of the Almighty Immortal, were also preparing to overcome the great heaven ordeal and then go to the Heaven Realm. It was gratifying that Master and his wife successfully survived the ordeal!! Before leaving, Master said that the most guilty matter in his life was to introduce my elder brother into the Yishui Clan. After he reached the Heaven Realm, he and his wife would definitely try their best to find out the whereabouts of his eldest brother.

“After a thousand years, my junior sister and I both upgraded to Almighty Immortal. In the process, we also learned that the Yishui Clan and the Blood Divine sect were giants that we were unable to fight with personally. So, I made a promise with my junior sister. Each of us would build a powerful clan that did not lose to them!”

“I first accepted four pro-disciples who were very talented in Sword Tao, Talisman Tao, Pill Tao, and Formation Tao. Then I set up the current Sword Character Immortal Palace. Later, as my reputation grew, others called me the founding father of Sword Character. At that time, the junior sister’s Xuan Nyu Sect was also on the rise. Soon, we became the top few powerful clans of Tianshui Country.

“After this, one day in sudden, my elder brother appeared in front of me! Under the surprise, I also let the junior sister quickly rushed over. Seeing how junior sister and I were now, he smiled with gratification. It had been thousands of years since I last saw the elder brother and he seemed to be more mature and full of vicissitudes. He seemed to know that we have too many questions to ask him, so he was not in a hurry to leave. For three days, from his escape to the Devil Realm, to the upgrading to Heaven Realm, he told us everything in originals.

“At that time, we also knew that elder brother was already in the rank of Heavenly Master, but he was suppressed by the power of the law. So his cultivation was only at Fairy Immortal Stage. But even so, I had a feeling that I was still not the opponent of the elder brother.

“Elder Brother said the reason he was here, was first because of the Soul Cultivation Tree and the second was to pa.s.s on his mantle. Both of us completed your current Xuanyuan Mantra and Xuanyuan Swordsmans.h.i.+p. With the elder brother as the main and me as the auxiliary. At that time, he saw Feiling sword was good and s.n.a.t.c.hed it from me, and he rushed to say that he would leave it to his future pro-disciples.

“However, the Soul Cultivation Tree, even in the case of junior sister and I, not many big clans in the Mortal Realm were willing to take it out. That is, even the exchange of the rare magic treasures was useless! Finally, the elder brother directly hit the shot. With only the cultivation at late-stage of Fair Immortal, he could actually fight four Almighty Immortals and held the upper hand. After that battle, those clans with the Soul Cultivation Tree handed them to the hands of my elder brother submissively.

“After collecting the Soul Cultivation Tree, and later merging the Xuanyuan Mantra and Xuanyuan Swordsmans.h.i.+p into ‘Xuanyuan Skill’, the elder brother was also ready to leave. He was going to find a way to restore the body of that woman from Devil Clan. Before separation, I gave the elder brother a Five-element Bead that I obtained by chance. He liked it and decided to make it a gift for the future disciple together with the Xuanyuan Skill. Junior sister also gave a rare s.p.a.ce genre magic treasure, ‘Interspatial Bracelet’ to the elder brother.

“After the elder brother left, the Mortal Realm established the Immortal Allies. My junior sister and I joined in order to help the elder brother better. Originally we thought that there would be a meeting someday soon, but I did not expect that this wait lasted for nearly 10,000 years.”

At the last words, the eyes of the founding father of Sword Character were full of tears. He stared at the sky quietly. He was completely back in the memory of the three of them using chrysanthemums to boil the wine, talking and laughing.
