Everlasting Immortal Firmament - Book 06 Chapter 075
Book 06 Chapter 075: Heavenly Access’s Shock
Outside a large hall, Myriad Age Daoist Sect:
A few Myriad Age Daoist Sect disciples paced around the large hall.
“The third lord was lectured by the sect master again?” a disciple said softly.
“I heard about it too. The third lord wielded the Immortal Executioner Sword and killed his way from the Full Moon Sect’s first lunar altar to the eighteenth lunar altar. He even massacred everyone at the main altar. He was covered in blood when he returned. The sect master found out and punished him with seclusion in the meditation hall while copying the scriptures, to cultivate his mind,” another disciple said softly.
“What did the Full Moon Sect do to anger the third lord so much?”
“What else did they do? Those monks from the Full Moon Sect like to twist facts. They thought themselves very incredible and accused the third lord and the Six Paths Veritable Lord of harboring malicious intentions when they provided relief and rescued those in need. They claimed that while the two were overtly rescuing people, the two were secretly harming those people. The third lord adores the Six Paths Veritable Lord the most. It was one thing for the Full Moon Sect to accuse the third lord, but they even accused the Six Paths Veritable Lord. Angered, the third lord…”
“Then, it serves the Full Moon Sect right. Right now, the entire world is praising the Six Paths Veritable Lord. Even Heaven is full of praise for the Six Paths Veritable Lord. To think that the Full Moon Sect is so reckless!”
“Unfortunately, the third lord ran into the sect master. The sect master said he was too bloodthirsty and wanted him to reflect on his actions.”
“If I were that capable, I would seek justice from the Full Moon Sect too. The third lord did nothing wrong!”
The disciples conversed in low voices as they circled the meditation hall.
The doors to the hall were shut, and the interior was dark, with only a golden candle burning inside. A black-robed man sat cross-legged in the center of the hall.
This man was none other than the Myriad Age Daoist Sect’s Sect Master Heavenly Access.
Sect Master Heavenly Access gritted his teeth as he copied the scriptures.
“I did not do anything wrong. How could I be wrong? Humph! Why is First Senior Brother punishing me?” Sect Master Heavenly Access muttered under his breath, feeling uncomfortable.
“Those baldies from the Full Moon Sect refused to provide help when the surrounding citizens were suffering a calamity. The Six Paths Veritable Lord went to help, and they claimed that the Six Paths Veritable Lord was harboring malicious intentions? Humph! Humph! Humph! A bunch of fools that twist facts. What is wrong with killing them? They even claimed that the Six Paths Veritable Lord was harming the world. Screw them!”
Snap!
In his anger, the brush in Sect Master Heavenly Access’s hands snapped.
This furious Sect Master Heavenly Access appeared rash and impulsive.
Just then, a wind came from the tightly shut doors.
Whoosh!
The strange wind rushed at Sect Master Heavenly Access, causing the candle flame to flicker intensely as if it would die at any moment.
“What…?!” Sect Master Heavenly Access’s expression changed as he sensed something wrong.
It felt like something had entered his body.
Buzz!
Sect Master Heavenly Access trembled, frozen in place.
He remained frozen for a while before awakening with a shiver.
When Sect Master Heavenly Access returned to his senses, his angry and frustrated expression vanished, leaving only a grave and confused look. He seemed to have matured in an instant.
He frowned heavily, his pupils constricting as he looked at his hands, then took in the decorations around him and the candle flame.
“The Supreme Ascendant Mind Focusing Candle? This was used up eight hundred thousand years ago. Why…?” Sect Master Heavenly Access felt slightly startled.
He looked at the scriptures on the table and the broken brush in his hand.
Whoosh!
Heavenly Access sprang to his feet.
Buzz!
Seven swords suddenly floated around Heavenly Access.
He held the seven swords in his hands, showing some surprise in his eyes. “The Heaven Splitting Ax fragments are missing. My cultivation also somewhat regressed? Well, cultivation is secondary; I can recover it in the blink of an eye.”
Creak!
Heavenly Access flung out his sleeves, and the doors opened.
Some of the Myriad Age Daoist Sect disciples outside goggled.
“Third Lord, the time is not up yet. You cannot come out. Otherwise, the sect master will be angry!” a disciple called out worriedly.
Sect Master Heavenly Access narrowed his eyes. He could not recall the person before him. He only remembered this person after searching through his memories for a while.
“It’s you? You are not dead yet?” Sect Master Heavenly Access felt slightly startled.
“Dead? What do you mean ‘dead’? Third Lord, what are you saying?” that disciple asked in confusion.
“Third lord? You addressed me as third lord?” Sect Master Heavenly Access frowned at the sky.
Like before, there were blessings above the Myriad Age Daoist Sect. However, these were just the amount of a middle-tier sect.
“The Myriad Age Daoist Sect? A middle-tier sect? Third lord? Eight hundred thousand years ago?” Sect Master Heavenly Access’s pupils constricted.
Now, he remembered.
Isn’t all this the scene from eight hundred thousand years ago?
Back then, I was the third lord of the Myriad Age Daoist Sect. I was not the sect master yet. I am not the sect master?
“Third Brother, are you ignoring First Senior Brother’s words? He told you to stay in the meditation hall and copy the scriptures. Why are you out?” A cold shout rang out.
A man in elegant robes appeared nearby. There was a red dot on his forehead, and he showed a cold gaze; he gave off a noble air.
“Salutations, Second Lord!” the Myriad Age Daoist Sect disciples said respectfully.
“Essence Genesis? You look the same? There’s no change at all? Hahahahaha!” Heavenly Access laughed, his eyes lighting up.
“What nonsense are you saying?” Essence Genesis said with a glare.
“It looks like it’s true. Old Mister Guan Qi? How capable of you! The time laws? I returned! I really returned!” Shock appeared on Heavenly Access’s face.
“Third Brother, are you going to cause trouble again?” A stern voice suddenly rang out.
Sect Master Heavenly Access did not get angry at being scolded. Instead, his figure stiffened as he turned his head to the source of the voice.
An old man in loose, white robes glowered at Sect Master Heavenly Access from nearby.
“The Full Moon Sect only voiced their thoughts. However, you destroyed the entire sect just because you disagreed? What did I teach you? Keep your mind as calm as still water. Yet, you were so violent, destroying another sect and not sparing anyone? How infuriating! I told you to reflect on your actions and calm your mind, yet you came out after writing just a few words? Who are you going to kill now? How about you kill me as well?” The white-clad old man glared at Sect Master Heavenly Access.
Sect Master Heavenly Access did not rebut this criticism. Instead, his eyes turned moist.
Why is the third lord crying? 6444
The surrounding Myriad Age Daoist Sect disciples lowered their heads and averted their gazes, not daring to look.
“Oh? Third Brother got scolded to tears. This is unlike you. Don’t you have a very thick skin?” Essence Genesis said with a frown.
Sect Master Heavenly Access ignored Essence Genesis, staring at the white-clad old man. Then, he suddenly dropped to his knees.
“First Senior Brother, Heavenly Access realizes his mistake. It is great to be able to see you again. Hit me! Scold me! First Senior Brother, Heavenly Access missed you!” Sect Master Heavenly Access suddenly started crying, tears flowing down his cheeks.
“Huh?” This startled Essence Genesis, shocking him.
The nearby white-clad old man was naturally the Myriad Age Daoist Sect’s sect master, the Supreme Ascendant.
The Supreme Ascendant looked at Heavenly Access in shock. “What are you doing? What trick are you pulling this time?”
“When Master died, Second Senior Brother and I were still young. First Senior Brother brought us up, teaching us in place of Master. You even took good care of us. This junior brother was ignorant and brought First Senior Brother a lot of trouble. First Senior Brother, hit me. Just go on and hit me! Junior Brother has let you down!” Heavenly Access suddenly cried, feeling incredibly upset.
Essence Genesis goggled. He could not understand why his third brother, who often caused trouble for their first senior brother and bickered with him, suddenly became like this.
The Supreme Ascendant had come to scold Heavenly Access. However, when he saw Heavenly Access reacting like this, he forgot about scolding Heavenly Access.
“What’s wrong? Did someone bully you? Who?” The Supreme Ascendant’s eyes turned cold. He was ready to stand up for Heavenly Access.
Seeing the Supreme Ascendant’s expression, Heavenly Access felt a warmth in his heart.
“No, no. I just missed First Senior Brother. First Senior Brother, I gave you a lot of trouble in the past!” Sect Master Heavenly Access said with bloodshot eyes.
“There’s really no one?” the Supreme Ascendant asked suspiciously.
“No, none!” Heavenly Access immediately shook his head.
“Since there is none, why are you crying? Alright. Collect yourself before you come with me to pay our respects to the dead of the Full Moon Sect. Hah…,” the Supreme Ascendant sighed softly.
The Supreme Ascendant was benevolent. He felt guilty towards the Full Moon Sect and wanted to pay his respects and offer sacrifices to them. As for punishing Sect Master Heavenly Access, he no longer had any thought of it. He clearly pampered Heavenly Access a lot.
Heavenly Access was about to nod instinctively. However, he suddenly trembled. “Oh no! Oh no! I have to leave the Myriad Age Daoist Sect immediately. First Senior Brother, Essence Genesis, don’t look for me. Don’t look for me. Even if I die outside, don’t look for me and don’t pursue the matter.”
The trembling Heavenly Access remembered Old Mister Guan Qi.
According to the rules of the game, he had to kill all the Six Paths Veritable Lord in this one year before Six Paths usurped Heaven. His mission was to kill the Six Paths Veritable Lord. The Six Paths Veritable Lord’s nine clones should have possessed their past bodies and would also remember this.
People from eight hundred thousand years later were coming to stop the Six Paths Veritable Lord from usurping Heaven. Would that not mean the Six Paths Veritable Lord would attack everyone? Once the Six Paths Veritable Lord found out, he would immediately eliminate all possible dangers from eight hundred thousand years later.
Since Heavenly Access knew about everything, the Six Paths Veritable Lord was bound to as well.
The Six Paths Veritable Lord would probably arrive at the Myriad Age Daoist Sect soon.
I need to go. Immediately. Otherwise, everyone in the Myriad Age Daoist Sect will be implicated.
Essence Genesis’s and the Supreme Ascendant’s expressions changed at Heavenly Access’s panic.
“Third Brother, are you in some trouble aside from the Full Moon Sect?” Essence Genesis asked, his face suddenly sinking. He also felt very concerned about Heavenly Access.
“What’s going on? This is not your style. Why are you showing such an expression? Who is it? Who is targeting you? Tell me. I’ll stand up for you!” the Supreme Ascendant said coldly, having noticed Heavenly Access’s fear.
Heavenly Access felt touched. However, he shook his head the next moment. “You can’t. This time, it’s the Six Paths Veritable Lord who wants to kill me. He will not stop until he does.”
“The Six Paths Veritable Lord? How can that be?” Essence Genesis showed a shocked expression.
The Supreme Ascendant looked at Heavenly Access somewhat blankly.
Just as everyone felt confused, a loud shout came from outside.
“Six Paths seeks an audience with the three lords of the Myriad Age Daoist Sect!”
The Myriad Age Daoist Sect had a ritual array protecting the sect; no one could enter. The voice that rang out outside sounded extremely polite. However, it sounded like a death knell to Heavenly Access.
The Six Paths Veritable Lord has already made his way here?
