My Master Knows It All

356: Chapter 156 Debts of Sin Must Be Repaid_3 356: Chapter 156 Debts of Sin Must Be Repaid_3 Earth Immortal Realm, to become an Immortal on the spot!

Longevity Period, a lifespan of ten thousand years.

He could clearly feel the intense life force emanating from Jue Ying, many times stronger and denser than his own.

The difference between the Longevity Period and the Wind Fire Tribulation was only one step, yet that step was incredibly vast and varied.

He had even heard before that one in the Longevity Period could easily kill several who had survived the Wind Fire Tribulation.

However, at this moment, being thankful to oneself…

Cao Zhen quickly stopped Jue Ying and called out, “Don’t thank me just yet.

Now that you are an Earth Immortal, you’ve become much stronger than before.

There’s a problem with the mountain’s seal; shouldn’t you first go and repair it?”

“It is indeed so.”

Jue Ying gave a slight nod, quickly taking Cao Zhen and Lan Pili and flying toward the direction inside the mountain.

However, this time, he was not walking through the mountains but flying directly towards the summit.

As they returned, within a coffin in the mountains, the voice that had previously misled Jue Ying once again spoke up, now filled with a threatening tone, “Jue Ying, think carefully.

Do you truly want to help them?

You are now an Earth Immortal, you have just become one.

Are you really willing to be killed by the Grand Preceptor?

The Qiankun small epoch is approaching; chaos will reign throughout the land.

After the Qiankun small epoch, who knows how the world will change.

If you help us now…”

The other party was still trying to mislead, but now, without needing Cao Zhen to speak, Jue Ying did not even bother to pay any heed, swinging his palm and casting spells in quick succession.

For a moment, the surrounding mountains all trembled slightly, and whether it was an illusion or not, Cao Zhen even felt that the mountains had each moved a bit.

Afterward, Jue Ying let out a long breath and lamented, “I can only repair the Great Formation’s seal so much.

After all, the seal was originally laid by the Grand Preceptor.

To fully repair the seal, I, a mere individual in the Longevity Period, cannot possibly accomplish it.”

Cao Zhen was speechless.

What do you mean ‘a mere Longevity Period’?

Do you know how powerful the Longevity Period is?

Before, facing Jue Ying in the Wind Fire Tribulation, he felt there was a slim chance to struggle and escape.

But with Jue Ying in the Longevity Period, if he truly wanted to act against him, he would not have the slightest chance to flee.

Jue Ying seemed to know what Cao Zhen was thinking and sighed again, “I know what’s on your mind.

Indeed, the Longevity Period is incredibly strong.

I can feel how much stronger I am than before.

But it’s precisely because I’ve reached the Longevity Period that I can even more keenly feel the terror and strength of the Grand Preceptor, and the gap between us.”

With that, he pointed at the seal and said, “Under normal circumstances, this seal could last for a while longer.

But with the Qiankun small epoch imminent and the Heavenly Dao constantly changing, the seal might not hold out for much longer.

I will find a fellow disciple to come and guard the Formation while we must make haste to the Capital City.

Of course, I know I am guilty.

After all, many people have died here, and their deaths are related to me, as well as the three Dao Companions from the Dharma Apex Sect.

In the end, their deaths are on me too.

I will report all of these to the Sect.

If, after informing the Grand Preceptor of everything, he decides to execute me on the spot, I will beg him—not for mercy, but for permission to go to the Dharma Apex Sect.

I will ascend to the Dharma Apex Sect and offer my apologies, informing them of everything, and then, regardless of whether they decide to kill or flay me, I will leave it all in the hands of the Dharma Apex Sect!”

Cao Zhen was profoundly moved; he began to recognize once more the sense of responsibility of a disciple from a top-ranking Immortal Sect!

What is called a sect of noble lineage?

Why ‘noble lineage’?

Why ‘sect’?

It’s because when you make a mistake, you dare to admit it, dare to bear it.

That is what makes a sect noble!

In the past, while on Earth, reading those Xianxia novels, what kind of noble lineage were those depicted sects anyway?

They, one by one, used the reputation of being righteous but ended up with the attitude of ‘If you dare kill my people, kill my friends.’

I wouldn’t care about how those around me acted, or whether my friends were murderers or wrongdoers.

After all, I’m the protagonist; I am justice, and I will prevail over you!

Those so-called righteous sects were even more internally murderous, bereft of any integrity, where plotting and harming fellow sect members were commonplace, including even disciples who killed their masters.

What kind of fellow disciples are they?

They are clearly from evil sects!

Cao Zhen looked at Jue Ying and finally understood with utter clarity that the people brought up in noble sects carry the appropriate sense of responsibility, just like the three from the Dharma Apex Sect before, just like Jue Ying before him.

They might make mistakes, they might stray, but when they finally come to face their inner selves, they demonstrate sufficient responsibility!

That is what truly defines a noble sect!

They had arrived at this place yesterday noon, and after Jue Ying’s tribulation had consumed a great deal of time, after all the struggles, it was already the next morning.

Jue Ying quickly burned a Sect’s chart and, while flying towards the city with Cao Zhen and the others, said, “I have already reported everything directly to the sect.

I expect that in about five days or so, someone from the sect will come to take over for me.

And in these days, I have one more thing to do.”

Cao Zhen looked at Jue Ying’s face, which showed a hint of murderous intent, and immediately understood, asking, “Is it about those empty coffins?”

Jue Ying looked at Cao Zhen with surprise.

Had Peak Master Cao already found out?
