Chapter 162: Obtaining the Purple Firmament Immortal Ganoderma, Zi You Enters Seclusion!

【The moment you thought of the Purple Firmament Immortal Ganoderma, you also recalled once again that bizarre scene you had witnessed in Xuanzhou.】

【You remembered that after the Tribulation Realm mighty expert of the Purple Firmament Sect seized the Purple Firmament Immortal Ganoderma, he was still taken away by members of the Bizarre Immortal Race even after successfully undergoing tribulation.】

【Although at the time that person had broken through from the Lower Three Realms to the Middle Three Realms, you could not be sure whether someone breaking through from the Mahayana Realm to the First Tribulation Realm would already be watched as well.】

【You did not dare gamble with Zi You’s life, so you asked Xuanyuan Tianji whether there was any method to conceal oneself from deduction.】

【“Deduction?”】

【Upon hearing this, Xuanyuan Tianji frowned deeply.】

【After a long while, you saw Xuanyuan Tianji let out a long sigh and shake her head.】

【“It can’t be done!”】

【“There is a way, but under the current conditions in the Canglan Realm, it is simply impossible.”】

【Xuanyuan Tianji asked you why you suddenly needed a method to conceal oneself from deduction.】

【You told everyone that now that Blood Demon Heavenly Venerable had returned to the Purple Firmament Holy Land, they had at most only two to three years of breathing room left.】

【You looked at Zi You and told her that you knew of a place where there was a Purple Firmament Immortal Ganoderma, and that, together with the five spiritual herbs you possessed, there was a strong chance it could help her successfully undergo tribulation.】

【After hearing that Zi You had a chance of successfully undergoing tribulation, a trace of hope once more appeared on everyone’s faces.】

【Then, however, your next words plunged them into despair again.】

【You told everyone that although Zi You had a high probability of successfully undergoing tribulation, after doing so she would most likely face the same kind of situation as the Great Calamity of Heaven and Earth, and be taken away by an unknown creature.】

【“Even so, I am not afraid!”】

【Zi You suddenly stepped forward and looked at you with a resolute expression.】

【“Little Junior Brother, this is the only chance before us. We cannot refuse to act simply because it might fail. We no longer have a choice!”】

【Looking at the determination in Zi You’s eyes, you nodded heavily.】

【Since Zi You herself was unafraid, you had even less reason to retreat.】

【At that moment, Xuanyuan Tianji suddenly spoke.】

【“Perhaps things are not as serious as you imagine. It is possible that this sort of thing will not happen again.”】

【You turned your gaze toward Xuanyuan Tianji and asked whether she had discovered something.】

【Xuanyuan Tianji raised her head thoughtfully and looked toward the sky, seemingly lost in thought.】

【“I do not know whether it is just my imagination. I still need to observe for a while longer.”】

【After hearing Xuanyuan Tianji’s ambiguous answer, you did not press further. Instead, you told Zi You that you would take her to Xuanzhou next to search for that Purple Firmament Immortal Ganoderma.】

【The next day!】

【You and Zi You repeatedly used the Great Void Technique as you made your way to Xuanzhou.】

【In order to save time, you chose to pass directly through the Endless Sea and reach Xuanzhou as quickly as possible.】

【Two months later!】

【You successfully arrived in Xuanzhou and soon entered the sphere of influence of the Watermoon Sect.】

【This time, you went straight into the Watermoon Sect to look for Bai He.】

【When Bai He saw Zi You, she was slightly stunned.】

【Bai He had not expected Zi You to come looking for her.】

【“You know me?”】

【Zi You looked at Bai He curiously. From Bai He’s eyes, Zi You could tell that she recognized her.】

【Bai He nodded and told you that after the Great Calamity of Heaven and Earth, she had seen Zi You slaughtering her way through the Purple Firmament Sect.】

【“So that’s how it is...”】

【Immediately afterward, you told Bai He the truth about the Great Calamity of Heaven and Earth, and also explained the current state of affairs in the Canglan Realm.】

【You told Bai He that Blood Demon Heavenly Venerable had broken the seal and had now returned to the Purple Firmament Holy Land, and that in no more than a few years he would return to the Tribulation Stage.】

【“So you came here to ask me for help?”】

【“But I am only at the Mahayana Realm myself. I have no way to face a Tribulation Realm mighty expert.”】

【Bai He looked at you in confusion, not understanding why you had come to find her at such a time.】

【After exchanging a glance with Zi You, you told Bai He the purpose of your visit.】

【“The Purple Firmament Immortal Ganoderma?”】

【“There is actually such a spiritual treasure inside the Forbidden Land?”】

【Bai He looked at you in shock. She had never imagined that even as the Sect Master of the Watermoon Sect, she did not know what was inside, while the two of you, as outsiders, knew that there was a Purple Firmament Immortal Ganoderma within.】

【“How did you know?”】

【“I possess the Heavenly Secrets Art. All of this was deduced by me!”】

【You told Bai He that everything you knew about the Watermoon Sect had come from your deductions. Otherwise, how could you have known so much about the Watermoon Sect?】

【At the same time, you also told Bai He that only you could break the formation inside the Watermoon Sect’s Forbidden Land. It was a formation from the Heavenly Secrets Pavilion; in the entire Canglan Realm, aside from you, only Zhuge Qing could break it.】

【“You even know that?”】

【After hearing about the formation inside the Forbidden Land, Bai He completely believed you.】

【After thinking for a moment, Bai He nodded and agreed to take you into the Forbidden Land.】

【Not long afterward, Bai He brought you to a waterfall.】

【You nodded to Bai He, stepped forward, and quickly broke the formation.】

【Now that the Purple Firmament Sect no longer existed, you were not worried that a Tribulation Realm mighty expert would come seize this Purple Firmament Immortal Ganoderma.】

【The only thing that worried you was that you did not know whether Bai He would truly hand the Purple Firmament Immortal Ganoderma over to you so easily. After all, no matter how one looked at it, this spiritual treasure belonged to the Watermoon Sect.】

【After seeing the look in your eyes, Bai He smiled faintly.】

【Bai He told you that you could take this Purple Firmament Immortal Ganoderma. In her view, you were fighting for the sake of the entire Human Race, so this Purple Firmament Immortal Ganoderma ought to be given to you.】

【And as for her, Bai He had not made any contribution in this war either. She also wanted to do something for the Human Race.】

【After hearing this, you understood that Bai He was kind and gentle at heart.】

【Bai He needed to protect the mortals here, as well as the villagers here, so she could not go fight without any attachments.】

【You could understand Bai He. The moment she selflessly gave you the Purple Firmament Immortal Ganoderma, she had already helped the Human Race.】

【After obtaining the Purple Firmament Immortal Ganoderma, you bid farewell to Bai He and left.】

【As you were leaving, Bai He told you that if you ever needed help, you could come to her, and she would lend you a hand.】

【Two months later!】

【You and Zi You returned to the Sword Pavilion.】

【Your trip to Xuanzhou and back had taken less than half a year, and time was growing increasingly tight.】

【After returning to the Sword Pavilion, Zi You entered seclusion.】

【Before Zi You entered seclusion, you handed over the five soul-nourishing spiritual herbs on you as well, hoping that she would successfully break through.】

【After Zi You entered seclusion, you went to find Xuanyuan Tianji.】

【Now that only the two of you were present, you asked Xuanyuan Tianji what she had meant by those words she said before your departure.】

【“It changed!”】

【“The Laws of the Canglan Realm have changed!”】

【Xuanyuan Tianji pointed at the sky and slowly spoke.】
