Chapter 113: The Pollution Crisis! The Son of Destiny in Xuanzhou!

Year 12!

【“Young friend, no need to compare her with others. She must have had a high cultivation before being sealed. It's just that her cultivation was lost due to the sealing, but her original realm is still intact.”】

【Upon hearing Wuji Heavenly Venerable's explanation, a look of realization appeared on your face.】

【“No wonder!”】

【“Hmm? Why are you staring at me like that? Is there something on my face?”】

【Xuanyuan Tianji, noticing your gaze, curiously asked.】

【Realizing she caught you staring, you awkwardly smiled.】

【You told Xuanyuan Tianji that you were planning to return to Sword Pavilion.】

The next day!

【You returned to Sword Pavilion.】

【After the Blood Demon Secret Realm had been open for so many years, everyone in Sword Pavilion had made rapid progress in cultivation.】

【Lin Tian had broken through to the peak of the Deity Transformation stage, while Gu Xinyue and Fang Jingchun had reached the late Void Refinement stage.】

【What surprised you even more was that Ye Chuxue’s cultivation was on the verge of breaking through to the Integration stage.】

【However, you were worried when you noticed Ye Chuxue’s change.】

【She had become distant and cold, speaking less and showing no smile on her face.】

【Thankfully, after talking to her, you realized that she was still the same Ye Chuxue, although her personality had changed somewhat. She hadn't been possessed by the Lord of Taiyin as you feared.】

【Though Ye Chuxue was fine for now, you couldn’t shake the feeling that her situation was precarious.】

【The Lord of Taiyin was a ticking time bomb, and you didn’t know what Ye Chuxue would become in the future.】

【You decided to wait until you returned to the Blood Demon Secret Realm before asking Xuanyuan Tianji if she knew anything about this situation.】

Three days after your return to Sword Pavilion, Zhuge Qing appeared outside the pavilion.

【This was your first time seeing Zhuge Qing since leaving the Heavenly Void.】

【Just as you were about to catch up with him, Zhuge Qing spoke first, asking,】

【“Has there been a strange situation in Youzhou and Qingzhou? Where once the spiritual energy of secret realms was fine, now it’s inexplicably polluted?”】

【Upon hearing this, your body tensed, and you froze in place.】

【Zhuge Qing noticed your shock and furrowed his brows.】

【“Has it happened?”】

【You nodded, then sighed deeply.】

【“The Fallen Immortal Secret Realm has been polluted for over a decade now!”】

【Zhuge Qing’s face grew serious.】

【“I didn’t expect this issue to have been discovered as early as ten years ago.”】

【“Time is running out for the human race. Once all the secret realms in the Canglan Realm are polluted, the human race will have no chance of turning things around.”】

【Zhuge Qing then asked if you knew the cause of the pollution.】

【Zhuge Qing mentioned that he had tried to deduce the cause but was blocked by an invisible force, as if the Heavenly Dao itself was preventing him from continuing his deduction.】

【You immediately understood why Zhuge Qing couldn’t make any progress. As a Son of Destiny, the Heavenly Dao was protecting him.】

【Though you knew the Heavenly Dao itself was struggling, as the only hope for the Heavenly Dao, it would undoubtedly do its best to protect the Son of Destiny.】

【You told Zhuge Qing everything you knew about Lin Qi and the Children of Destiny.】

【After hearing this, Zhuge Qing fell into a long silence.】

【When you mentioned that the Heavenly Dao had been polluted by the Bizarre Insect Progenitor and had placed its hopes on the Children of Destiny, only for them to also be subtly polluted, Zhuge Qing felt an overwhelming sense of helplessness.】

【“I can’t believe it! The one preventing my deduction was the Heavenly Dao itself!”】

【He had suspected that something was wrong with the Heavenly Dao, but he didn’t expect it to be this serious. It seemed as though the Heavenly Dao had already sided with the Bizarre Insect Clan.】

【Zhuge Qing even suspected that the Bizarre Insect Clan had intentionally influenced the Heavenly Dao to shift its power to the Children of Destiny, leading to the Canglan Realm’s complete fall.】

【After telling you his thoughts, you too felt a sense of conspiracy.】

【You knew that if the Heavenly Dao continued in this direction, you couldn’t allow the Children of Destiny to keep polluting the secret realms. Even with the help of the Great Calamity, you wouldn’t be able to defeat the Bizarre Insect Clan.】

【And that defeat would be irreversible.】

【Zhuge Qing told you that he couldn’t deduce the exact location of the Children of Destiny, but you were the only one who could.】

【You looked at Zhuge Qing in confusion.】

【“If even you can’t do it, why do you believe I can?”】

【Zhuge Qing confidently nodded and smiled at you.】

【“You were the one who deduced the location of the Heavenly Secrets Pavilion and the Great Calamity in the future. I believe the Heavenly Dao can’t stop you.”】

【Hearing this, your mouth twitched.】

【The location of the Heavenly Secrets Pavilion had actually been deduced by Zhuge Qing himself, through his life, and the Great Calamity had been something he personally experienced in past simulations.】

【“Are you sure?”】

【Seeing your hesitation, Zhuge Qing spoke again.】

【“You are the one foretold in the prophecy of the Heavenly Secrets Pavilion’s leader. Your future is shrouded in mystery, and even the Heavenly Dao can’t interfere with it!”】

【At Zhuge Qing’s strong recommendation, you returned to the grass hut alone to start your deduction.】

Seven days later!

【You walked out of the grass hut with a serious expression.】

【Upon seeing your solemn expression, Zhuge Qing instinctively thought you had failed.】

【“I didn’t expect... even you couldn’t deduce it.”】

【“No! I deduced it!”】

【“But the results surprised me!”】

【Zhuge Qing’s eyes brightened.】

【“Where?”】

【“There’s not just one!”】

【“I deduced two locations, one in the Central Continent and one in Xuanzhou!”】

【When Zhuge Qing heard Xuanzhou, he froze.】

【He hadn’t expected that there was another Son of Destiny in Xuanzhou.】

【The only human cultivator you encountered there was Bai He from Shuiyue Sect.】

【“Could it be... Shuiyue Sect?”】

【You shook your head and looked at Zhuge Qing with a complex gaze.】

【“I’m not sure!”】

【“Currently, my Heavenly Secrets Art has only reached the fourth level, so I can only deduce a rough location. To get more specific, I need to advance my Heavenly Secrets Art.”】

【Since returning from the Heavenly Void, you had neglected your Heavenly Secrets Art, focusing entirely on the Chaos Immortal-Demonic Art.】

【Zhuge Qing asked again.】

【“If you meet this person, can you directly deduce it?”】

【This time, you confidently nodded. With the help of the Eye of Truth, you could easily discern someone’s innate talents.】

【After receiving your answer, Zhuge Qing smiled and nodded.】

【Zhuge Qing then asked if you wanted to bring Zi You along.】

【“Senior Sister is probably off stealing treasures from some royal dynasty again!”】
