Yiu Ruo was indeed not well-known for her talent in cultivation back then. She was outstanding and had such an excellent reputation because she was the daughter of the Zhou Family Leader, and partly because she had a wide range of friends and had close relationships with many famous Heavenly Gifted Individuals at that time. As a result, her reputation spread far and wide.
However, her talent should not have been outstanding back then. Otherwise, the Zhou Family Leader would not have thought of marrying her off instead of cultivating her in the family.
However, more than six thousand years have passed now. The famous prodigies of those times withered one after another, while that unremarkable young girl rose and reached the present level on the contrary.
After the Demigod Stage, one would become a quasi-Heavenly Venerate. When one cultivated to the peak of this level, one would be able to possess some magical abilities at the Heavenly Venerate level and become a half-step Heavenly Venerate.
You Ruo was currently at this level. Bai An observed that her foundation was profound and had been polished to the extreme. There were not many flaws, as seen with his current vision. If she tried to break through with this kind of foundation, the probability of advancing successfully was extremely high.
In other words, there was a high probability that Yiu Ruo would succeed in advancing and transforming into a Heavenly Venerate, just like Bai An now. Bai An couldn’t help but feel a little magical when he thought of the outcome.
Bai An didn’t know how much suffering he had gone through along the way to advance to his current level. Even so, he was only able to reach his current level step by step with the help of the ancient sword.
Yiu Ruo had not appeared for thousands of years, and At the very least, Bai An had never heard of her reputation. With her identity as a traitor of the Zhou family, if she appeared in the outside world, it would immediately stir waves of commotion, making it easy for problems to arise.
And since there was no news, she had most likely been living in seclusion for thousands of years, where she had cultivated to this extent.
‘This was really…’
“You seem to be very surprised, Brother Bai.” You Ruo smiled and looked at Bai An. That smile was as sweet as ever, just like in the past.
Time seemed to have gone wrong. Although the location was different, the two were still the same as before. Both Bai An and Yiu Ruo were still young, looking like a pair of young boys and girls, just like in the past.
Hearing Yiu Ruo’s words, Bai An calmed himself down and sighed, “It was a little unexpected. If others knew about this news, it would be hard not to be surprised.”
“Maybe.” Yiu Ruo smiled and invited him, “Since it’s rare to meet in this vast world, why don’t you come over as a guest, Brother Bai? Let me host you.” Bai An did not refuse and nodded before he followed her into the grass house.
After entering, the space around him swayed, and a new change vaguely appeared. It looked like a grass house from the outside, but the space inside was beyond imagination. It was as gorgeous as a palace, far from being as shabby as the grass house seemed from the outside.
This was an inexplicable method. It moved the space and forcefully opened up an area similar to a secret realm inside the thatched cottage using a magic formation. Yiu Ruo had an awe-inspiring method and was terrifying based on this point alone.
She casually sat down in a large hall and started brewing tea, with tea leaves boiling in the water. Bai An couldn’t help but glance at her, as the entire process was filled with an exuberant spiritual aura and a fleeting Dao rhyme.
The tea leaves used to brew seemed to be a kind of divine medicine, which was good. The water was also the essence extracted from the spirit spring, suitable for refining medicine. It didn’t take long for a cup of tea to be brewed.
The two sat facing each other, “We haven’t met for so many years. Do you have something to say, Brother Bai?” Yiu Ruo said with a smile as she poured a cup of tea for Bai An.
“You’ve been here all these years?” Bai An’s face remained calm and said after hesitated for a moment.
“Most of the time, but I’ll leave sometimes.” Yiu Rou smiled and continued, “This wasteland has a lot of great nature creation, with more than one Heavenly Venerate corpse in it. It’s a perfect place.”
“The battlefield of the Heavenly Venerates?” Bai An nodded as he suddenly understood.
The more advanced a cultivator was, the more terrifying their influence would be on the surrounding heaven and earth. When a Heavenly Venerate dies, his corpse will leave behind terrifying traces, but it will also impact the world around him.
If Bai An were to transform into a Heavenly Venerate and die somewhere, he would be able to change that area into a holy land of cultivation. If many Heavenly Venerates were to die in this area, it would be expected that the site would become a wasteland.
After all, even if a Heavenly Venerate had fallen, the killing intent and death aura they left behind was also astonishing. It was a fatal attack for those who had not reached the level of a Heavenly Venerate.
The two began to chat about what had happened in the past.
“My physique is extraordinary.” You Ruo told Bai An the truth, “Not long after I was born, I could often see many inexplicable scenes. Sometimes, it was just some ordinary, trivial things, but sometimes it was terrifying images of Gods and demons. Some of these images originated from the past, and some came from the future.” Bai An’s heart skipped a beat hearing this, and he immediately thought of something.
“That’s right.” Looking at the change in Bai An’s expression, You Ruo smiled and continued, “This was how I knew about your father back then. Also, I would find you and ask you to help me leave the Zhou family. It was also because I had seen your appearance in the future, so I knew that you could help me leave.”
“I see…” Bai An was shocked to hear Yiu Ruo’s words before he came to a realization.
Then, he could not help but sigh when he heard Yiu Ruo’s words, “This kind of physique is shocking, feeling the universe and knowing the past and the present…” He was amazed by Yiu Ruo’s words.
This kind of physique was too shocking to know and sense the past and future trajectories. To discern the future, one could find out about the natural creation of various regions and even know the future powerhouses from multiple areas and excavate them in advance.
Regardless of whether it was used to intercept the nature creation or to recruit those Heavenly Gifted Individuals in advance, this ability was highly outstanding and was a little too powerful.
Yiu Ruo’s reputation was well-known because she had befriended many Heavenly Gifted Individuals when they were weak and maintained an excellent relationship with them.
In other words, with her extraordinary ability, she could accurately find those Heavenly Gifted Individuals who had yet to rise in the crowd. Including the fact that she had grown step by step over thousands of years, reaching her current level with a not-so-outstanding aptitude.
After all, the advantage of knowing the past, present, and future was simply too great, making Bai An feel jealous at this moment.
“Speaking of which, I have been waiting here for you.” Yiu Ruo’s words sounded again, with a smile on her face. “A thousand years ago, I had already predicted that you would come here one day in the future, so I did not leave and have been waiting here all this while. You are finally here.”
“Specifically waiting for me?” Bai An frowned in confusion, ‘She stayed here just to wait for me to arrive? Was there a deeper meaning behind this?’
“I’m waiting for you here to tell you something.” Yiu Rou continued, “Brother Bai, do you know about the opening of the Immortal Sect?”
“The opening of the Immortal Sect?” Bai An frowned and began to think about it solemnly.
Then, he said with some uncertainty, “Were you referring to the legend of the Immortal Sect that opens once every ten thousand years?”
There had always been a legend among the cultivators in this world. Legend had it that there had always been a hidden Heavenly Divine Weapon in the depths of the world, at the Immortal Sect. With all kinds of mysteries, it is incredibly mysterious and unique.
This Immortal Sect would only appear at particular times upon meeting stringent conditions. However, one could enter the legendary Immortal World through this sect and cultivate there once it appeared.
The legendary Immortal World had an even more unique environment. Even a nascent soul cultivator could enjoy a long life, comparable to an ancient Heavenly Venerate.
The existence of the Immortal World had always been a legend. Whether it existed was also a mystery that had never been proven. However, Bai An had browsed through relevant information when he was in the Eternal Dynasty. The so-called Sect of the Immortal World should exist.
The Eternal Heavenly Venerate, who founded the Eternal Dynasty and built it single-handedly, and had almost unified the entire cultivation world, was suspected of leaving this world to the Immortal World through the Immortal Sect.
Bai An had been skeptical about this record and had never thought much about it in the past. However, he had never expected to learn about the Immortal Sect from Yiu Rou.
“Is what you said true?” Bai An sat on the ground and thought for a while. Soon, he came to his senses, and his eyes became extremely bright. His gaze was fixed on Yiu Rou, and he couldn’t help but become interested.
“Naturally.” Facing Bai An’s gaze, Yiu Rou smiled and then continued, “I wouldn’t deceive you on this matter.”
