Noticing that everyone sat down, she subconsciously followed suit, but her eyes were hollow... as if there was no life in them anymore...

Gu Han took in a deep breath, colorful light circulated around his body, his Xuan Qi changed in colors from black, then red, green... after changing numerous times, he spat out a dark, black blood clot.

Then, his festered flesh and charred skin begin to slowly fall off from his body. After the scabs fell off, a new layer of white flesh was revealed.

Had it been any ordinary person, with such a severe injury, he would have probably died numerous times over. But Gu Han managed to completely recover in such a short period of time. At least, on the surface.

His injuries were no longer an issue, but his appearance...

Gu Han had coordinated with Jun Mo Xie to force Zhan Lun Hui into the volcano earlier. He used all his cultivation on the pushing force, lowering his defenses to the lowest. All his clothes were burnt away. Even his hair and brows were damaged. It wasn’t an issue when he was in a completely sorry state earlier, completely pitch-black from head to toe. But right now, his body had recovered, his new milky, tender flesh looks pretty good, but he was completely exposed... making it a little...

Young Master Jun sniggered internally. When he first met this old man, he had an air of carefreeness and gracefulness, the endless splendor of an otherworldly expert. Right now, he was so sorry-looking. But Jun Mo Xie’s first thought was to retrieve a robe and hand it over!

Gu Han took it subconsciously, but realization struck him and he couldn’t help but turn bright red, putting those robes on in a fluster. His injuries have recovered, but his appearance was extremely unbecoming. He wasn’t that different from how Zhan Lun Hui looked earlier. Although there was an urgent matter they had to see to, and a man of character did not bother about trifles, but there were women present here...

It was not like the rest from Heaven Saint Palace did not think of this, but they weren’t like Young Master Jun who carried a world everywhere he went to produce clothing anytime. If they wished to offer clothes, they’d have to give the ones on their bodies, which was already torn and tattered...

“Zhan Family! The culprit that had caused this disaster is Zhan Kuang!” Gu Han scoffed and said through gritted teeth. “Zhan Family is the ancestor of the Zhan Family of the Misty Illusory Manor. And at the same time, one of the eight disciples of the first Manor Lord of the Misty Illusory Manor, Miao Qing Cheng. The only one that remains!”

Jun Mo Xie nodded his head. “En. What is the cause?”

Gu Han scoffed as his face contorted. “Everything started from greed. For ten thousand years, since the Misty Illusory Manor was established, it had an inseparable relationship with the three Holy Lands! When Ancestor First Young Master sealed the Pillar of Heavens Mountains that separated the continent into two, for the sake of ensuring the seal lasts for eternity, he set up a ‘Nine Illusory Quicksand Nirvana Formation’ in the ancestral shrine of the three Holy Lands, using it to absorb the Heaven Earth Spiritual Qi and transforming it into the Nine Illusory Quicksand. Then the Nine Illusory Quicksand ensured the continuity of the Formation, constantly producing the energy needed to keep the seal on the Pillar of Heavens Mountains and thus ensuring that the strange races will never step foot in the Xuan Xuan Continent easily for the rest of their lives!”

“The Nine Illusory Quicksand... Nirvana Formation!” Jun Mo Xie mumbled. “So that’s the reason.”

“And the reason why the Misty Illusory Manor can be formed is because of the Nine Illusory Divine Pearl that the Nine Nether First Young Master left behind. That is also a complex Heaven and Earth Formation that is able to move Heaven and Earth, Sun and Moon into a small space! Which led to the formation of the Misty Illusory Manor! But if the Misty Illusory Manor wishes to continue existing, every thousand years they will have to enter the formation to top up a certain amount of Nine Illusory Quicksand. The moment this is broken, it means that the entire realm of Misty Illusory Manor will crumble.”

Gu Han let out a deep sigh. “And the disaster today had started from this matter.”

Jun Mo Xie came to a complete realization.

“If the formation in Misty Illusory Manor is not provided with the Nine Illusory Quicksand, the Rainbow Holy Tree, which is the source of life in Misty Illusory Manor, will wither and die in the shortest time. If the Rainbow Holy Tree dies, the entire Misty Illusory Manor, along with all the lives in it, will all turn into dust!”

“Back then, the Nine Nether First Young Master had his qualms that the three Holy Lands would intentionally wipe out the Misty Illusory Manor. Although the Nine Illusory Quicksand Nirvana Formation, being the seal of the Pillar of Heavens Mountains, is set in the boundaries of the Holy Land, this formation needs to be maintained and operated, and it can only be done by someone from the Misty Illusory Manor.”

He raised his head to look at Jun Mo Xie, knowing that he was confused. “The Nine Nether First Young Master had once imparted a set of Xuan skills, but later, it was improvised and ultimately imparted to the four great disciples. But the effects of their Xuan skills were all different. Of which, Senior Miao Qing Cheng’s line of descendants received the skills that can truly drive the Nine Illusory Quicksand Nirvana Formation. And only those with cultivation of a Saint Venerable and above can do it.”

Jun Mo Xie nodded his head. This was the best plan for mutual cooperation and coexistence.

“And aside from its effect as the seal of the Pillar of Heavens Mountain, this Nine Illusory Quicksand Nirvana Formation also has immense power. Those who are a Saint Venerable and below have completely no way to enter it! Even if a Saint Venerable enters it, all their strength will vanish the moment they enter it! No matter how powerful they were! They become the equivalent of an ordinary folk!

“With the strength of an ordinary person, the amount of Nine Illusory Quicksand that they can bring out is just sufficient for a thousand years. Perhaps, a little more, but it won’t be significant.”

Jun Mo Xie took in a deep breath. He suddenly developed a genuine admiration for the Nine Nether First Young Master. This brazen, number one lunatic in all of history, had been so intricate in his considerations for his disciples. This set-up was undoubtedly almost perfect.

It suppressed the three Holy Lands from developing wicked intentions of becoming the only power and also cut off Misty Illusory Manor’s possibilities of doing the same. And forced them to last and coexist harmoniously for eternity.

No wonder the three Holy Lands could last for ten thousand years... so everything, the real reason is because of this Nine Illusory Quicksand Nirvana Formation!

“Every thousand years, Misty Illusory Manor will come forth to collect and maintain the circulation of the Nirvana Formation. This has never changed for the past ten thousand years, and there had never been any accident. And the three Holy Lands also built rapport with Misty Illusory Manor for this relationship concerning our existence. Every time the Misty Illusory Manor comes, they will bring two bunches of the Seven Colored Holy Fruit. And the Holy Land will gift them with two Exquisite Lotus. Call it exchange, or returning politeness for politeness, ten thousand years passed like this, peacefully...”

Gu Han said solemnly: “Numerous days ago, that Zhan Lun Hui, which is the reincarnation of Zhan Kuang, suddenly came to Mount Heaven Saint and requested for an audience with me. Saying that the War for Seizing the Heavens was impending, he was afraid that it would disturb the Holy Land’s preparation for the War for Seizing the Heavens, and specially came to maintain the formation, and at the same time, retrieve the Nine Illusory Quicksand for this thousand of years.”

Jun Mo Xie raised a brow, a questioning look on his face.

Gu Han chuckled bitterly. “You don’t need to ask. It was indeed not a thousand years yet. It was indeed sudden for Zhan Lun Hui’s arrival. But since the Pillar of Heavens Mountains collapsed once, eight thousand years ago, it left a huge impact on the Nine Illusory Quicksand Nirvana Formation. In recent times, the seal of Pillar of Heavens Mountains occasionally showed signs of loosening. The War for Seizing the Heavens is just around the corner, and three Holy Lands is indeed weak. We do not have the confidence of complete victory. It is also possible that we are completely wiped out in this battle.”

Zhan Lun Hui coming for maintenance also got use thinking that: even if we all die in the battle this time, this Nine Illusory Quicksand Nirvana Formation will still be able to continue to work, and at least, it can last for a thousand years. The strange races can still invade the Xuan Xuan continent, but only those who are extremely strong will be able to come in. At the same time, we believed that the Misty Illusory Manor would not sit and watch their own source of life being left in the hands of others. For a long time, even if the three Holy Lands waned, Misty Illusory Manor would also come and defend this place of their own accord... So after all of us discussed it, we agreed to Zhan Lun Hui’s request. At that time, we all did not know that he was the Zhan Kuang from back then! Although he also revealed his strength of a fourth level Saint Venerable, we did not pay mind to it.

Gu Han let out a bleak chuckle. “We may not be extremely powerful, but we are confident of dealing with a fourth level Saint Venerable. Even if he intended to play tricks, we will be able to stop him in time! But who knew...

Gu Han’s face began to turn red and he coughed violently, a look of hatred on his face. “Who knew... This Zhan Lun Hui is... he is the ancestor of the Zhan Family in Misty Illusory Manor, Zhan Kuang!

“Zhan Kuang is completely insane, taking advantage of his cultivation that had long surpassed a Saint Venerable, Saint Monarch, and almost reaching the realm of a Sage. The Nine Illusory Quicksand Nirvana Formation had almost no effect on him, so he forcibly retrieved large amounts of the Nine Illusory Quicksand from the formation! All the accumulation from ten thousand years, he took off with all of it! Not leaving a single bit of it!”

As he spoke, everyone from Heaven Saint Palace clenched their fists tightly, a look of anger and frustration on their faces.

“The Nine Illusory Quicksand that Zhan Kuang took can supply the Misty Illusory Manor for a million years! Zhan Kuang is truly the best disciple of Miao Qin Cheng; as expected, he plans far ahead. Haha, this move truly gets it done once and for all!”

“But when he took all of the Nine Illusory Quicksand, the Nirvana Formation can no longer work! There is no way we can gather enough Nine Illusory Quicksand to keep the Nine Illusory Quicksand Nirvana Formation going within a couple of days!” Gu Han laughed bitterly. “Without the Nine Illusory Quicksand... then can it still be called Nine Illusory Quicksand Nirvana Formation?”

“At the same time Zhan Kuang came out, the Pillar of Heavens Mountains suddenly began to sway! I knew something was wrong and immediately questioned Zhan Kuang, ‘What exactly did you do in there!’” Gu Han’s face twitched. “Zhan Kuang tried to give the explanation that after the maintenance of the formation this time, the seal of the Pillar of Heavens Mountains will be even more secure after this round of quaking!”

Jun Mo Xie rolled his eyes. This Zhan Kuang is really not bad, to be able to be this shameless, it’s really a realm of its own already...
