“Saintess Tianxuan?”

The mention of this name sent a shock wave through Yang Zhen’s heart. A holy woman, a grand saint, whose legendary tales were told from ancient times to the present day. It was said, with a simple gesture, she could move mountains and fill ravines—a stupendously earth-shaking existence.

A Grand Saint!

The moment they heard this title, all the practitioners in the Nether State turned pale, even Yang Zhen felt his blood boiling. Because in his heart, he too carried a great saint, one who stood equal to the heavens, battled with the gods, and feared no immortals or Buddhas!

Mo Xueling exclaimed in surprise, horrified, she said, “Saintess Tianxuan, I can’t believe she has two Ascension Orders at once!”

Sao Cat’s face looked strange, he was uncertain as he looked at Sao Chicken, who after showing off his skills retreated to keep a low profile, leisurely grooming his wings.

Seeing Sao Chicken’s nonchalant expression in the face of impending doom, Sao Cat muttered under his breath, “Damn, this Sao Chicken is getting more mysterious. Not only can he emit a pinch of Golden Crow flames, he even knows that Saintess Tianxuan had two Ascension Orders. How many secrets is this bastard keeping?”

Yang Zhen also looked at Sao Chicken with a strange expression. The chicken seemed to be more reliable than Sao Cat. Even though he always acted arrogantly, at least he did not suffer from amnesia, which made him seem more reliable than Sao Cat, who was always inconsistently lazy.

Glancing at the Ascension Order inside his spiritual consciousness, Yang Zhen’s expression was filled with suspicion. This thing was actually a natural treasure from the ancient times, a secret treasure of the universe, and an extremely powerful item that had existed since ancient times. Even Grand Saints coveted it – he hadn’t expected to obtain one.

But this so-called Ascension Order seemed too dangerous. Without a certain amount of power, one could not casually comprehend it. Otherwise, they might end up like Medicine Madman, dead at the end of cultivation without achieving anything.

The Medicine Madman had time to leave some legacy behind, but as Yang Zhen thought about it, he wondered, what would he leave behind if he suddenly died?

How to flirt and be frivolous?

Would… anyone inherit that?

While Yang Zhen was lost in thought, Hua Youyue came before him. Her gaze was fixed on him as she slowly said, “The Dao contained in the Ascension Order is too profound. You should not rush to comprehend it. At least wait until after you have crossed the Tribulation, understood the laws of heaven and earth, and gradually comprehend it. Otherwise… you will undoubtedly die!”

Upon hearing her words, Yang Zhen’s heart seemed to stop for a moment. Seeing the serious look in her eyes, he realised, she seemed to know some of the horrors of the Ascension Order, and nodded, “Alright, Damsel, a man ought to be kind to himself. I am not foolish enough to casually comprehend things like heaven and Dao. Besides, my current strength is sufficient, I don’t plan on advancing further in the near future.” n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Hua Youyue showed a slight smile, nodded and said, “Laying a solid foundation is an absolute advantage.”

Yang Zhen was taken aback, facing Hua Youyue, he asked, “Did you remember something else?”

Hua Youyue nodded, looking in one direction, she said, “I must go there. My legacy is there.”

Looking at the direction Hua Youyue was facing, Yang Zhen’s heart skipped a beat and he let out a sigh.

That direction led to Bone Mountain, as Yang Zhen remembered clearly.

“What do you mean by ‘your legacy’?” inquired Mo Xueling out of curiosity. Even she felt that there was something special about Hua Youyue. She grabbed Hua Youyue’s hand, and warmly said, “Junior Sister Hua, whatever happens, you must be careful!”

Slightly startled by the words, Hua Youyue looked at Yang Zhen and said, “I will!”

Suddenly, Sao Cat cried out, shouting, “I remember now!”

Yang Zhen jumped in fright and spat out irritably, “Damn it, can’t you stop being so dramatic? You’re going to scare me to death!”

“I remember now!” Sao Cat repeated, the baffled look still plastered on his face, as though it was a matter of life and death.

Yang Zhen looked at Sao Cat, perplexed, he asked, “What did you remember just now, why are you so shocked?”

Sao Cat, in a murmur of disbelief, blurted out, “Saintess Tianxuan—that crazy woman—accidentally got two Ascension Orders and spent ten years comprehending them. She even reached the fifth step, leading to a sudden rush in her strength. But… alas… this crazy woman, in the name of love for a man, forcibly used the sixth step and ascended straight to the sky. She devastatingly destroyed a piece of heaven and earth.”

“What?” Yang Zhen’s body shivered in shock.

Damn it! For a man, she even destroyed heaven and earth. Was this woman obsessed with romance?

The despicable cat seemed to notice the strange expression on Yang Zhen’s face and said, “Kid, what’s with that look? The Saintess Tianxuan wasn’t trying to save that man, she was trying to kill him!”

Yang Zhen jumped in fright, “Who was that powerful?”

“Forgot about him, who would remember a dead person!” The despicable cat sneered, and mumbled:

“Damn, things are getting exciting. In the legend, Saintess Tianxuan at that time connected with the celestial bodies; heaven and earth were in chaos. That part of the universe was completely blocked off and forcibly separated from the main world. Since then, the order of heaven and earth was terribly chaotic, it became a place totally opposite to the main world. There was no life there, even the breakdown of heaven and earth hurt Saintess Tianxuan. It took her hundreds of years to recover.”

Having said that, the despicable cat’s eyes were filled with uncertainty. Looking at the surroundings, he said, “Afterwards, that day and land were called…”

“The Forbidden Land of Life?” Yang Zhen suddenly interrupted with a weird look on his face.

“Congratulations, you’re right!” The despicable cat joked, but his face was pale as a ghost.

Yang Zhen was no longer in the mood to joke with the despicable cat. This was serious now. Unexpectedly, they had ended up in the part of the universe destroyed by Saintess Tianxuan.

Mo Xueling’s face turned pale. She said anxiously, “If this is really the part of the universe Saintess Tianxuan destroyed, then… aren’t we…”

“Unable to get out!” Yang Zhen said, breaking into laughter.

Damn it, he should have known it wouldn’t have been that easy. A place that hadn’t been entirely destroyed even by a cosmic catastrophe wasn’t something that could be opened by a few practitioners in the Tribulation Crossing Period.

They were in now, but trying to get out probably wouldn’t be as easy.

Yang Zhen looked absent-mindedly around as if he was on a joy ride. He glanced at the young girl’s serene smile, blinked, took a deep breath and said, “Now that we’re here, let’s find out what makes this god-forsaken place so special!”

Mo Xueling gave Yang Zhen a deep look and said, “There are thousands of practitioners here, maybe more. And who knows how many will continue to come. If they found out they couldn’t leave, then…”

“Then we don’t tell them!” Yang Zhen turned to walk away, “Sometimes ignorance is bliss. With no fear, there may still be a turn of events. Let’s go check out Bone Mountain first.”

Upon hearing ‘Bone Mountain,’ Hua Youyue shuddered. She approached Yang Zhen, took his hand, and quietly looked at him.

Yang Zhen was a bit creeped out by Hua Youyue’s calm gaze. He turned his head and asked her, “Young lady, what’s wrong?”

Hua Youyue smiled, as radiant as a sunset, her hair fluttering around, moving all beings.

“The epiphyllum flower is quietly beautiful, blooming in an instant!” Hua Youyue said something utterly inexplicable and looked at Yang Zhen, “Yang Zhen, the things you said at the Hua Family, did you mean them?”

“No!” Yang Zhen answered straightforwardly, without any hesitation.

Hua Youyue gave a mournful smile, nodded her head and said, “If… I mean if… would you remember a young girl gradually descending from the wooden stairs in Changyue Tower?”

Yang Zhen frowned at Hua Youyue, “I would not remember, and I do not want to remember. Young lady, what are you trying to say?”

“Nothing!” Hua Youyue slowly let go of Yang Zhen’s hand and started to walk towards Bone Mountain.

Yang Zhen watched Hua Youyue’s almost desolate figure and said, “I only remember one thing I said, ‘If the heavens want to harm you, this Sao Saint will stab it with three knives and six holes.'”

Hua Youyue’s body shook, the smile on the corner of her mouth bloomed brightly, like the fleeting epiphyllum flower, brought brightness to the world.

The despicable cat and the saucy chicken looked at each other, completely baffled.

“Is it dawn?”

“Idiot!”
