He was almost stupefied.
Naturally, he could distinguish that the slightly flawed Medicine King Cauldron should be inferior goods that were left behind during the migration.
However, the traces of time on it cannot be falsified.
So what was happening?
Could it be a problem with the Array Technique chronology?
Ling Huchang didn’t answer, rushing back to his room.
Then he carefully confirmed it once again.
There was absolutely no mistake.
Ever since the Era of Autumn Dreams Array was activated, and everyone in the sect fell into a deep sleep.
Indeed, only twenty-four years had passed.
“So, were those monsters outside lying?”
Murderous intent gradually rose in Ling Huchang’s heart.
Just then, he heard the other party say: “There’s actually a very simple way to verify this.”
“After the Great Calamity of Heaven and Earth, you cannot cultivate both Immortal Law.”
“If you don’t believe it, you can try to practice your own Techniques.”
“The outcome will reveal everything.”
Upon hearing this, Ling Huchang’s first thought was that it was absurd.
It wasn’t like the legendary Fruit of Eternal Life position; how could he not cultivate both Techniques?
However, seeing Xiao Heng’s sincerity, Ling Huchang, with the attitude of giving it a try, started using the Medicine King Sect’s true inheritance, “The Sutra of Longevity for the Salvation of the World.”
The next moment, he was completely stunned.
The Spiritual Energy circulated several times around his body, but it felt like a futile effort.
Not only did he not have any growth in cultivation, but a voice also echoed in his Spirit Consciousness.
“The Sutra of Longevity for the Salvation of the World: Unified Dao Technique.”
“Current number of practitioners: Four hundred and sixty-two.”
“What is this?”
His face turned pale, and beads of sweat began to slide down Ling Huchang’s forehead.
“No, this can’t be right. I must be hallucinating.”
he thought, completely unable to believe it.
Taking out several Elixirs, Ling Huchang swallowed them all.
Like a man possessed, he once again circulated his Techniques.
Again and again, after a hundred cycles.
Not only did his cultivation level remain unchanged, but he became even more frustrated.
Even in his Spirit Consciousness, he had a strange sensation.
He could clearly sense the direction of the other 461 disciples who were practicing “The Sutra of Longevity for the Salvation of the World.”
“Kill them! Kill all of them!”
A thought suddenly surged in his mind.
But he immediately reacted and shivered.
“How could this be, how could this be…”
His current predicament had completely exceeded all his previous understanding.
Although he did not want to admit it, Ling Huchang now understood in his heart.
The things those three men outside said could be true.
His people had just had a sleep, shorter than a seclusion period.
But countless years have already passed in the Xuanhuang World.
“But…”
“How can this be?”
In his fear, Ling Huchang lapsed into endless bewilderment.
Hearing silence from the room, Xiao Heng and others finally came in.
“Comrade, were our words… false?” Xiao Heng quietly asked.
Ling Huchang didn’t respond.
“Actually, we’re quite curious about what happened to the Medicine King Sect back then.”
“You might as well tell us in detail what exactly happened after Sect Master Liu left with the Cauldron to break the boundary.”
“Maybe with collective wisdom, we can get to the bottom of why all this happened.”
Xiao Heng continued to persuade.
After a long silence.
A somewhat confused Ling Huchang began to speak: “Actually, I’m not quite sure what happened.”
“It was really like a dream.”
“Back then, Sect Master Liu used his Great Divine Power to break the shackles of the Xuanhuang World, and drove the Medicine King Cauldron to the depths of the Void.”
“The original plan was to search for other rumored Immortal Cultivation Worlds, but…”
Ling Huchang paused, seemingly recalling the scene at that time.
“Not long after, warnings were issued from various parts within the Cauldron.”
“They said that they were being pulled by an unknown force and had lost control of their direction.”
“They told us to return to our rooms and prepare to enter the Era of Autumn Dreams Array for hibernation.”
“Later, the Medicine King Cauldron started shaking more violently. Even the activation of the Era of Autumn Dreams Array was affected and failed.”
“After that…”
Ling Huchang’s eyes narrowed slightly.
“The Sect Master transmitted a message saying that the plan to break out of the world had failed and had to be forcibly returned to the Xuanhuang World.”
“The Medicine King’s Cauldron was severely damaged and could no longer be manipulated.”
“In order to protect it, all the remaining power was used for protection.”
“The Medicine King Cauldron was left to free fall towards the Xuanhuang World.”
“After that, important functions within the Cauldron were shut down one after another, and my fellow disciples and I were forced to hibernate.”
“I was refining an elixir in the Alchemy Room at the time. By the time I returned to my room, I didn’t have time to close the door completely.”
“The Medicine King Cauldron started to shake even more violently.”
“In the midst of violent shocks, I passed out.”
“When I woke up again…”
“I saw you guys.”
Ling Huchang slowly said.
Xiao Heng and Zhang Haobo looked at each other, both puzzled about this bizarre incident.
But Su Xiaomei asked: “But according to your account, you guys never left the Xuanhuang World—you just took a stroll around it and came back?”
Ling Huchang nodded, “Indeed.”
“You entered hibernation just as you were about to fall back into the Xuanhuang World?” Su Xiaomei asked again.
“That’s right.” Ling Huchang confirmed.
“What are you saying ‘right’ for!” Su Xiaomei’s voice suddenly increased.
“From our perspective, the Medicine King Cauldron has gone from the Xuanhuang World for thousands of years and only recently returned.”
“At that time, all the cultivators in the world saw the Medicine King Cauldron turned into a Fire Meteor falling from the sky.”
“Oh yes, that should have been twenty-four years ago.”
After speaking, Su Xiaomei suddenly fell silent.
