Tang Lian looked around and said blankly, "State Preceptor, did you come by boat?"

Qi Tianchen shook his head.

Tang Lian thought about it, and then said, "Then, you came by riding on a crane?"

Qi Tianchen still shook his head.

Tang Lian was very confused. "Then, State Preceptor appeared out of thin air?"

Qi Tianchen nodded this time.

Tang Lian smiled wryly. "State Preceptor, please don't make fun of me."

"The State Preceptor is profound and enigmatic. He couldn’t be bothered to make fun of a kid like you." Baili Dongjun had also hurried back to their sides. "You were right, the State Preceptor really appeared out of thin air?"

"Spirit Wandering Profound Realm!" Tang Lian suddenly realized that the State Preceptor’s cultivation must also have reached the Spirit Wandering Profound Realm, and his spirit wandered here from tens of thousands of miles away.

Qi Tianchen smiled and shook his head. "I'm not as good as Citymaster Baili. I haven't reached the Spirit Wandering Profound Realm. This time, with the support of my four shidi to fortify my Daoist arts, I used the power of the Dragon-Seeking Array to project my spirit here from thousands of miles away."

"The State Preceptor has been half a step away from the Spirit Wandering realm for many years. Why be so humble?" Baili Dongjun smiled. "With the State Preceptor here, Dongjun finally feels a little more confident in my heart."

Tang Lian was stunned for a moment. "But, based on what the State Preceptor is saying, you’re not really here in person. Then, how can you fight?"

Qi Tianchen smiled and said, "Must we fight?"

Tang Lian was puzzled. "Is there another way?"

Qi Tianchen pointed a finger at his own mouth. "We Daoists pay particular attention to the five elements. Some cultivate the Fire Release techniques, some are proficient in the secret arts of Water Release. This Qi is not talented, and I cultivate the sixth element, Mouth Release."

"Huh?" Tang Lian was even more confused.

Baili Dongjun chuckled. "State Preceptor is still full of humour. But Dongjun would like to advise the State Preceptor. Mister Mo is no longer the same person as the Mister Mo I met back then."

"The world is so mundane. If I don’t hold some humour, how could I cultivate longevity?" Qi Tianchen tipped his toes a little and flashed a few steps forward. "Shidi, your shixiong is so happy to know that you’re still alive. How is our old shifu?"

Mo Yi replied. "Our old shifu passed away twenty years ago."

"Did he leave you any last words before he died?" Qi Tianchen didn't seem surprised.

"Shifu said, if I can cultivate into a true immortal, it’s due to the obsession in my heart. If I can't cultivate into a true immortal, it’s also because of the obsession in my heart," Mo Yi said.

Qi Tianchen nodded. "Then what do you think?"

"I think shifu’s cultivation of Daoism is far inferior to mine, so how can he evaluate me?" Mo Yi said arrogantly.

"As expected of my little shidi. Based on your present achievements, you are already the most outstanding person in the last three hundred years of the history of Beili. Indeed, even our shifu is not qualified to evaluate you," Qi Tianchen said slowly. "But are you willing to listen to a few words from this shixiong?"

"Shixiong, please speak," Mo Yi said.

"The person in your past had passed away decades ago. Their flesh and blood have turned to bones, and the bones have turned to ashes. Even if you have become a true immortal, how can you resurrect the dead into flesh and bones?" Qi Tianchen asked.

Mo Yi shook his head. "I have found a new body for her."

Qi Tianchen looked around, and when he spotted the talisman seal on the cliffside, he was slightly startled. "Gates of Hell array? You intend to summon her soul?"

"Yes," Mo Yi answered simply.

"Haven’t you considered that your sister’s soul might have rested in peace a long time ago? Doing this will only disturb the peace of the deceased. Even if you succeed later, can you really guarantee that the one who came back to life is truly your sister?" Qi Tianchen's voice held a faint trace of anger. "As a successor of Huanglong Mountain, you actually used the Gates of Hell array? Don’t you realise that you’ve already deviated into the ghost path?"

Mo Yi's face remained calm. "I won’t know until I try."

"But whether or not you succeed, she won’t die." Qi Tianchen pointed his horsetail whisk at Ye Ruoyi who was behind Mo Yi. "Like your little sister, she is also a life."

Mo Yi sneered. "Why should I care about the lives and deaths of others?"

Qi Tianchen sighed. "You have changed. You used to tell me that every life and every soul was precious."

"The person who told you that was the mortal Mo Yi. I am now the immortal Mo Yi," Mo Yi said.

Qi Tianchen sighed heavily again. "How can I stop you?"

"You only have one possibility." Mo Yi's sleeves flew up. "Become stronger than me. Unfortunately, nobody can do it. Not even you, shixiong."

Qi Tianchen flicked his horsetail whisk. "Did you really think I traveled thousands of miles here without a way to stop you?"

"Shixiong, back when I left the mountain, you were already beneath me. Now, the difference in realm between you and I is a gap as wide as Heaven and Earth. What are you going to use to stop me?" Mo Yi said arrogantly.

Qi Tianchen was known as the most powerful Director in the last three hundred years of the Directorate of Astronomy. He was the most revered State Preceptor amongst those who cultivated Daoism in Beili. Even the Sectmaster of Wudang Mountain would have to bow with respect when they met. Now, he was able to use his Daoist arts to allow his spirit to travel thousands of miles, his capabilities were even more like a divine immortal. But in Mo Yi's eyes, he was just his ordinary shixiong whose talent was far inferior to his own.

"Shidi, don't underestimate your shixiong too much." Qi Tianchen flicked his horsetail whisk and slammed it down at Mo Yi’s head. "Kneel."

Stroke the top of an immortal’s head, the pressure can make a mountain kneel.

Mo Yi really bent his legs and knelt down, and his body fell sharply. One of his legs cut off the peak of the mountain.

"I'll let shixiong make three moves." Mo Yi said mildly. "Kneel once to repay our meeting."

"Kneel again!" Qi Tianchen shook his horsetail whisk again.

Mo Yi flew back abruptly and landed on the sea. He bent over and knelt again, and his kneeling caused a tide to surge hundreds of zhang.

"Second kneel to repay our sect."

"Kneel again!" Every strand of horsetail on Qi Tianchen's whisk stood on their ends like the feathers of a bird.

Mo Yi suddenly appeared at the foot of the pavilion, and he leaned over to kneel lightly on the ground.

Lei Wujie was so shocked that he pulled Xiao Se and Sikong Qianluo to retreat.

But when he knelt this time, it was quiet and gentle.

The world seemed to stand still for an instant.

They could only hear Mo Yi's voice speaking evenly.

"Third kneel on account of our fellowship."

Mo Yi stood up.

"I'm done kneeling." Mo Yi raised his head. "Then, shixiong, please go and die."

He jumped up instantly, his sleeves danced wildly, and he slapped a palm at Qi Tianchen. He reduced the horsetail whisk into powder instantly, and he waved his long sleeves again. In another moment, he was going to sweep Qi Tianchen's entire body into ashes.

Qi Tianchen stretched out two of his fingers and gestured hurriedly across his chest. A huge bagua appeared, blocking Mo Yi's blow.

The ultimate produces two forms, the two forms produce the four phenomena, and the four phenomena produce the eight trigrams. It was exactly the same move as the one Mo Yi used earlier. This was the consummate knowledge of Huanglong Mountain, the Bagua Core Formula.

Qi Tianchen was knocked back and he retreated hurriedly. Mo Yi followed his example, and gestured quickly across his chest as well.

"The ultimate produces two forms, the two forms produce the four phenomena, and the four phenomena produce the eight trigrams. Shixiong, your bagua is too small."

Another bagua appeared, but it was nearly ten times larger than the one created by Qi Tianchen earlier.

"The eight trigrams create all life." Mo Yi hooked two of his fingers and sneered.

Qi Tianchen exclaimed. "I didn’t expect that the difference in realm between us was really that wide."
