After a brief silence, Huai Yin instinctively asked, "Did he leave a piece for me?"

For some reason, his voice suddenly changed, becoming cautious and probing.

It was as if he was expecting something, yet unbelievable.

"Yes, your disciple narrowly escaped death and charged into the Penglai Fairy Island to snatch this piece of Eternal Bone."

Taihua's eyes flickered as he softly said, "The reason is that I casually mentioned there might be something in the Sea of Eternal Life to ease your pain, and he went for it. Originally, these matters had nothing to do with him."

There was a long silence on Huai Yin's end, as if he exhaled a breath.

"I will share this piece of Eternal Bone with you."

Taihua suddenly said, "The condition you mentioned last time, I can consider it."

Huai Yin seemed surprised, exclaiming, "You've figured it out?"

"But I have only one request."

Taihua coldly said, "I want to know everything about this child."

Huai Yin sighed softly, "Why go to such lengths? You should be enjoying your twilight years, getting involved in such trivial matters does you no good, nor does it help the world. Don't forget, you are the President, many things can't be done according to your whims and temper, you have a responsibility to this world."

"I am his Grandmaster."

Taihua however said coldly, "I have my own plans."

"Alright, this matter is significant, I'll talk to you when I return."

The booming sound from Huai Yin's side sounded like the collapse of heaven and earth, he softly spoke: "Candle Dragon Venerable is about to awaken. This time the situation is a bit different, I sensed his Spiritual Domain, it seems abnormal. Unprecedentedly empty, devoid of any emotions, compared to the past, he is like a different entity, like an empty shell."

Taihua frowned, knowing what he was referring to.

As the President, she naturally had also crossed paths with that strongest Supreme.

Since ancient times, Candle Dragon Venerable has always been a god rich in emotions.

One could even describe him with the words "emotional sensitivity".

"This time, Candle Dragon Venerable isn't even singing. What a pity, I wanted to hear it again."

Huai Yin sighed: "I'm starting to act, you can begin on your end too."

Taihua acknowledged with a hum and hung up the phone.

Gu Jianlin slammed his fist against the light barrier at the door, drenched in sweat, panting heavily.

His front hair was already soaked with sweat, his gaze sharp as a knife.

Half an hour had passed, no matter what method he used, he couldn't break the light barrier in front of him, it was like an insurmountable chasm, completely blocking his path, making him realize the difference in power.

This is the absolute power gap brought by Rank differences.

"Don't waste your efforts, the woman who cast this light barrier is unfathomably strong, definitely above Demigod Level, her mastery over the Heavenly Person Realm is extraordinary, you have no chance of breaking through, even if you use me, it's futile. This power's source is roughly equivalent to a Lord in a human form."

Jiuyin in his hand trembled slightly, "Even if you break me, it won't help."

Gu Jianlin fell silent, casually tossing Jiuyin onto the bed, sitting on the chair, panting.

Damn.

These old guys really have no sense of integrity.

Playing dirty tricks on him.

As the saying goes, accept one's help, one loses one's strength; accept one's meal, one loses one's soft voice.

This person really took things and turned cold on him.

Now he knew.

The big shots of this world, their skins are really thick, and their hearts truly dark.

Four hundred-year-old elders bullying a seventeen-year-old child.

"Is there really no way?"

Gu Jianlin asked, "Is this all the strength you have?"

Jiuyin said eerily, "That's only if I recover to my full strength, I also need to grow, my power is closely tied to yours, even if we gave it our all now and used the Lord's power, we still wouldn't be able to break through! Speaking of which, I sense the soulful fragrance of a Lord on you."

Gu Jianlin thought, "Fragrance of the soul, my foot."

Jiuyin asked eagerly, "Have you met the Lord?"

This stupid blade hadn't been taken into the Reincarnation Nirvana World, but left in the dream of Penglai Fairy Island.

Thus unaware.

Gu Jianlin, in a bad mood, said coldly, "Yes."

Jiuyin pressed, "What did you do?"

Gu Jianlin said flatly, "Nothing much, engaged in a friendly and deep exchange to solidify bilateral relations and expressed the longing from days of separation. The Lord is about to ascend, and told me to protect her well."

Jiuyin was shocked, hissing, "The Lord is about to ascend, and you're not by her side, what should you do? Don't worry, I'll think of a way! Can't let the Lord fall into danger!"

Gu Jianlin paused for a moment, indeed this stupid blade is the one even old monsters complain about.

This intelligence, truly unrivaled.

At this moment, the voice of Taixu sounded in the room.

"Zunjin's Omega Sequence. According to the superior's instructions, to prevent you from feeling anxious and bored during this confinement period, I will specially broadcast the battle situation of Buzhou Mountain for you to watch and learn!"

Gu Jianlin was stunned, not expecting this turn of events.

The projector in the lounge automatically turned on, the light screen condensed in the darkness, reflecting the fragmented sky dome, the broken upright pillar reaching the sky, the surging Nether River, and the terrifying Dragon Roar.

It is as clear as a Blu-ray blockbuster, with world-destroying special effects.

If this were a movie, an estimated billion dollars would be burned in a minute.

In the realm stood a silhouette frost-white as snow, it was a woman akin to a peerless Sword Immortal, countless flying swords slashed through the sky like a burning meteor shower, falling toward the broken Heavenly Pillar.

Silver King!

The phantom majesty of Gold overlooked the earth like a giant god, above his head was a golden sword that pierced the Sky Dome, tens of thousands of splendid sword lights crisscrossed, Sword Qi bursting forth.

Golden King.

Finally, there was a massive green Qilin that seemed to prop up the sky, trampling the earth.

And atop the Qilin sat an elderly man with white hair.

His weapon was unexpectedly... a fishing rod!?

Gu Jianlin was shocked, his teacher's style was indeed different from others.

"Such strong humans, I didn't expect that after hundreds and thousands of years, humans have truly mastered such forbidden power. These are the Golden and Silver Kings you mentioned before? Yes, they are indeed at the forefront of the Evolution Path. Wait, that old man must be your teacher, right? This guy is at least Quasi-Supreme Level!"

Jiuyin seemed somewhat apprehensive, surprised, "He seems more like the Ancient God Clan than the Ancient God Clan themselves?"

Just as the words fell, it began to tremble wildly, as if it saw something exciting.

Because above the Sky Dome, thunder and lightning flashed, the solemn Ancient Dragon coiled at the extreme of the sky dome, a pair of emotionless blood-red eyes were terrifying like the fissures in time and space, the majestic Dragon Roar pierced through the heavens and earth.

As the bloody rain poured down, the Mandala Flowers of the entire world were in full bloom.

Faintly, a peerless woman danced at the edge of the world.

Countless threads of bloody light swirled, just like her skirt!

Like a peerless dance!

As if traversing time and space, a massive majesty came pressing.

Gu Jianlin couldn't help but lean back!

Old monster!

Didn't expect to see her again.

The last separation wasn't long ago, but seeing her again felt like an acute stress response.

However, for a moment, he felt something was off.

Because this time's appearance of Candle Dragon, though as powerful as ever, gave him a different vibe.

Not so real.

Instead, it felt like an empty shell.

"Demon Soul Dance! This is the Lord's Demon Soul Dance!"

Jiuyin became excited, "But the Lord's grace remains, queenly and city-toppling!"

Gu Jianlin asked suspiciously, "What's the Demon Soul Dance?"

Jiuyin huffed, "The Lord's Authority is Karma, it can only be fully unleashed in the state of Primordial Return. When she performs the Demon Soul Dance, it means she is barely serious, because these three humans are indeed strong."
