"Holy…shit… Is that the Evergreen Sword Saint?!"
The murderous intent on Chu Changshan's face vanished in an instant, replaced by a look of sheer terror and astonishment!
The aura emanating from Chu Yi was so intimidating that it struck a primal fear into him, rendering him utterly incapable of resistance, leaving him trembling uncontrollably!
Chu Yi's cultivator aura was now completely unmasked, sweeping through the area unchecked!
The sky was filled with a swirling mix of azure light and demonic flames, intertwined with a formidable psychic force that exuded a terrifying majesty. It was as if an invisible Mount Tai was pressing down from above, weighing heavily on the shoulders of everyone around!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
A series of muffled thuds sounded!
Several National level elders standing by Chu Changshan's side couldn't withstand the terrifying pressure and were smashed straight from the sky to the ground!
Dust billowed, and stones flew in all directions!
The ground was pitted with several huge craters!
The elders lay there, panic-stricken to the extreme, desperately trying to free themselves from the invisible crushing force!
But they were all martial artists who relied on their internal strength and were utterly helpless against this psychic oppression!
Even Chu Changshan, who had reached the pinnacle of the spiritual realm, felt an immense pressure that caused sweat to bead on his forehead, his face filled with horror.
How could this man's psychic power be so incredibly strong?!
Chu Changshan was completely dumbfounded. He had thought his own psychic power ranked within the top three in the spiritual realm of today's martial world!
The strongest spiritual realm martial artists of the present age couldn't possibly exert such a terrifying psychic pressure on him!
Chu Changshan even began to entertain a delusion.
It was as if he wasn't facing a martial artist, but a supreme deity, looking down upon all living beings!
The terrifying psychic pressure was as vast as an abyss!
It was something no spiritual realm master of today could withstand!
"Who on earth is he?!" Chu Changshan exclaimed in shock, his gaze towards Chu Yi filled with nothing but fear.
The Evergreen Sword Saint? The head of a martial family?
Absolutely impossible!
His aura was almost reaching that legendary realm above the spiritual realm!
The pinnacle of martial arts, a terrestrial immortal!
Even if the spiritual energy was revived, even if the martial world had another five years!
It would still be impossible for a terrestrial immortal to emerge!
All the spiritual realm masters of the current martial world had lived for hundreds of years, their talents long exhausted, and those with innate celestial physiques who were Biotics Men were just starting on their cultivation journey.
The path of martial arts was easy at first but became increasingly difficult.
Even during the heyday of martial arts hundreds of years ago, when those with innate celestial physiques were common, very few could achieve the realm of terrestrial immortality!
Therefore, in the consensus of the martial world, even with the revival of spiritual energy, it would take at least ten years to give birth to a new terrestrial immortal.
Then… what was happening right now?
Was this man ascending to terrestrial immortality?
Chu Changshan had no time to ponder further; he felt the threat of death and, without a second thought for the struggling elders below, turned around and desperately tried to flee.
However, he had barely flown ten meters when he slammed into an invisible barrier with a thud!
"What?"
Chu Changshan was stupefied, reaching out to touch the invisible barrier, and immediately recoiled as if electrocuted, his face filled with horror!
A formation?
A confinement formation!
Chu Changshan was shocked not because the Evergreen Sword Saint could set up formations—after all, any continental spiritual realm martial artist could create formations with a single thought.
But… this formation had nothing in common with any formation in the current martial world!
It even exuded a sense of sophistication and mystery!
In comparison, the formations of the current martial world seemed like crude imitations by primitives.
At this point.
Chu Changshan was utterly convinced that the Evergreen Sword Saint was not from the current martial world!
Who exactly was he?
And why did he look so young?!
Soon, he had the same thought as Chu Changhong.
"A terrestrial immortal, reborn through possession?!"
Chu Changshan sharply turned his head to look at Chu Yi, who was sitting with his back to him, his heart filled with shock and confusion.
Any person from the martial world witnessing this scene could only think of this possibility.
Could the terrestrial immortals who disappeared hundreds of years ago still be alive?
And to have possessed a young man?
Even more so! He was cooperating with China!
How could that be possible?
Chu Changshan couldn't believe it.
The terrestrial immortals from hundreds of years ago were the ancestors of the martial world!
After rebirth through possession, instead of helping the martial world, they were aiding modern China, the enemy of the martial world?
Chu Changshan couldn't fathom why.
However, at that moment, Chu Yi's voice echoed in his mind: "Terrestrial immortal? What the hell is that? Repeat after me, Golden Elixir, that's what it's called, Golden Elixir, got it?"
Chu Changshan: "???"
He was completely dumbfounded.
Wait… didn't the Evergreen Sword Saint's voice sound familiar?
Chu Changshan became uncertain, and upon closer thought, his expression drastically changed.
He had previously used a soul-searching technique on Mu Lengyu to confirm her hatred for China.
In her memories, the deepest grudges were all related to Chu Yi.
Chu Changshan had a vivid impression of Chu Yi's appearance and voice.
He had felt a sense of familiarity when he saw Chu Yi's silhouette earlier.
But Chu Changshan had automatically dismissed this possibility.
After all, the Ninth Elder had already taken Mu Lengyu to kill Chu Yi.
How could he possibly be alive and appear here?
But now, even the voice matched…
Chu Changshan exclaimed in shock: "Chu Yi?!"
Could it be that Chu Yi had been possessed by the soul of a terrestrial immortal from hundreds of years ago?!
He was the Evergreen Sword Saint?!
Was the so-called promotion to National level just this terrestrial immortal recovering his strength?
Including the scene before him, was it the same?
But Chu Changshan had no time to think further; he only wanted to survive.
He turned to look at the confinement formation, feeling the profound and powerful aura.
Chu Changshan felt he had no chance of breaking through the formation under the terrifying psychic pressure of the Evergreen Sword Saint.
So, he gritted his teeth, landed on the ground, and with a respectful bow to Chu Yi, he pleaded: "Esteemed terrestrial immortal, I was merely passing by! I had no knowledge of your presence here to recover your cultivation. Please show mercy and allow us to leave!"
Chu Changshan had come to terms with reality; if the person before him was truly a reborn terrestrial immortal.
Then even if the other spiritual realm masters arrived, they would only be coming to their deaths!
Only by begging for mercy could he hope for a sliver of a chance to live!
