Chapter 1375: Truth

As Chen Mobai’s voice faded, the mist around the island also began to slowly dissipate, and a person who surprised everyone walked out.

“San Jue, how could it be you?”“I can’t believe you’ve been hiding so deeply!”“That’s impossible. If you had achieved God Transformation with the Evergreen Cultivation Method, how could there have been no phenomena?”Seeing San Jue walk out, everyone from the Immortal Sect looked incredulous.

But a few others had expressions of sudden realization. After all, there were only a handful of individuals in the Immortal Sect who could achieve God Transformation, and San Jue was one of them, having also received resources for God Transformation. In their view, San Jue must have succeeded but deliberately claimed to have failed.

“No, you don’t cultivate the Evergreen Cultivation Method.” At this moment, Qian Xing shook his head. Although he hadn't fully recovered to his peak state, his Spatial Scripture realm hadn't fallen.

Because the Path of Sagely Virtue had no master, if Jiang Zhi wanted to reach the first tier, he could only choose pre-heavenly paths related to Sagely Virtue. He knew it was time for a showdown.

Qian Xing, Old Ancestor Wen Ren, and others, however, were shocked when they saw the white-haired youth, clearly having never expected him to be the mastermind behind the scenes.

His name was Qiao Boyong. After undergoing the baptism of Zi Xiao Palace, that sword had gained supreme Sagely Virtue and was now a top-grade eighth-tier item.

Just as Chen Mobai flew out, a voice very familiar to everyone in the Immortal Sect came from within the Dharma Realm.

“It’s actually him!”“No, he is not me.” Without that grand formation, even all the cultivators of the Seven Peaks Immortal Mountain combined would not be a match for the power of the Evergreen God Transformation.

It was still the Evergreen God Transformation who answered. After listening, Yuan Yang Sword nodded, indicating he understood. Seeing this scene, the expressions of the Immortal Sect members changed slightly.

But after checking the information, Gong Jiangzhi shook his head and said, “As he spoke, Yuan Yang Sword activated his divine sense, and the sword, now completely transformed and radiantly lustrous, had already flown out from the Dharma Realm.”

Because the oppressive feeling given by the Evergreen God Transformation before him was, in his two thousand years of life, second only to the Death God Incarnation.

“One of the Immortal Sect’s Four Ancestors is still alive?!”

The Spirit of the Great Chun couldn’t help but speak up to plead for Wen Ren Gongjiang. The Immortal Sect members immediately followed along, their minds wondering who San Jue’s master was. Although cultivators of the Evergreen Cultivation Method form a contract with the Spirit of the Great Chun, if their own realm is insufficient, they can only passively draw upon the Grand Dao of Life when they die. Clearly, the Evergreen God Transformation also held Wen Ren Gongjiang in high regard.

When his divine ability was broken, Changchun Gongjiang was alarmed. The Divine Peach Tree, where he now resided, was also one of the hubs of the Heaven Net Earth Vein Grand Formation. With Yuan Yang Sword making no attempt to conceal his presence, he naturally sensed the latter's existence.

“How is that possible?”

Yuan Yang Sword used his Heavenly Computing Pearl to search through images of all teachers and students in Ju Mang Daoist Academy, and quickly found out the origin of the white-haired youth before him. Such active displays, and clearly of an extremely profound realm, had only appeared once in the several millennia of Ju Mang Daoist Academy’s history. Upon hearing this, Bei Ming felt ashamed for his earlier targeting of Old Ancestor Wen Ren.

“Great Chun is my closest companion. I will never be able to harm you.”

Everyone present understood that Yuan Yang Sword was giving San Jue an out. As long as he claimed to have been coerced, at least his life could be saved.

He wore the oldest green daoist robe of Ju Mang Daoist Academy, standing beneath a peach tree with falling blossoms. Endless vitality surged within him, like a roaring furnace, making it impossible for even high-level Nascent Soul cultivators to look directly at him.

In the eyes of the Immortal Sect, even if Chen Mobai and the other Four God Transformations could reach Void Refinement in the cosmic starry sky, the possibility of their return was extremely slim. Although the Immortal Sect currently had many cultivators, without the Heaven Net Earth Vein Grand Formation, they would absolutely not be a match for Changchun Gongjiang.

“Then, we shall only punish the ringleader.”

The Spirit of the Great Chun had not yet expressed its stance, but Changchun Gongjiang already shook his head and spoke, expressing his displeasure that Gong Jiangzhi was still lying even now. “Senior…” At this moment, Old Ancestor Wen Ren, with a heavy tone and a mix of reluctance and understanding, bowed to the Spirit of the Great Chun and said, “I am an Immortal Sect cultivator. If the Evergreen God Transformation truly intends to devour the essence of the Earth Star to reach Void Refinement, I can only stand with the Immortal Sect.”

Gong Jiangzhi also showed an appreciative expression, thinking to himself, “As expected of my confidante, like attracts like. She possesses the same realm of righteousness as me. In the future, she could perhaps switch to a pre-heavenly path related to Sagely Virtue; who knows, she might achieve even greater accomplishments.”

This was an extremely young man, yet his eyes were aged and his hair snow-white. But he hadn't expected Qian Xing to reincarnate into the Wu Qi Daoist Academy.

“No wonder he could hide so deeply…”

“As expected of the Immortal Sect’s foremost figure throughout history. I, Changchun, am by seniority, a peer of Yun Yazi from their Wu Qi lineage.”

The Evergreen God Transformation smiled slightly, and then a dense, verdant spiritual light surged into the sky not far away, indicating the location of the Great Chun. The Great Chun’s eighth-tier spiritual energy merged with the ceaseless Evergreen True Qi within him, transforming into an immortal aura brimming with vast vitality.

Even if he were to use the Evergreen Cultivation Method to devour the planet's essence to achieve Void Refinement, it would be more difficult from a lower position. Instead, it made Old Ancestor Wen Ren furrow her brows, a hint of anger on her face.

Although it was known that if the Evergreen God Transformation revived, the Divine Great Chun Tree, being his native spiritual asset, would certainly stand with him, Yuan Yang Sword, out of old ties, decided to give her a chance to turn back from the abyss.

“Does Cui’er know?”

“I am speaking to Senior Great Chun, not to him.”

Wen Renwei furrowed her delicate brows, looking at Juesha. Her mind struggled to comprehend the scene and the events.

The Evergreen God Transformation also highly valued this most talented cultivator in the Immortal Sect’s history, feeling he had to display his full power.

But given that he had once saved Chen Xiaobai, he still gave him a chance: “San Jue, were you acting under duress, or are you complicit in this?” Firstly, Yuan Yang Sword held great prestige. Secondly, as a doctor, San Jue had basically been owed favors by everyone present.

Others did not know Changchun Jiang’s realm, but this native spirit tree was the clearest. It could have stepped into the Void Refinement stage at any time, but it had no physical body, and the spiritual energy was insufficient, so it had always restrained itself.

“Hmm, you’ve merely not experienced hardship; you’re a bit naive. I will shatter all the beautiful things you cherish and make you face reality.”

Because this was indeed an ability only possessed by cultivators at the Evergreen Cultivation Method realm, and not just ordinary cultivators; at the very least, one needed to comprehend and control the Grand Dao of Life.

A golden-haired Spirit Venerable stepped out from within, a faint, unreadable smile on his lips, his eyes slightly narrowed as he stared coldly at the Evergreen God Transformation.

“Didn’t you long ago achieve Nirvana?”

But San Jue ignored the crowd. With a sigh of emotion, he merely bowed to Chen Mobai: “Greetings, True Monarch Pure Yang. I never thought I would live to see your return to Earth Star.”

“Is this the profundity of the Evergreen Cultivation Method?!” A green and white immortal light shone beside the Evergreen God Transformation, and countless flowers on the island gathered, transforming into the appearance of the Spirit of the Great Chun.

As long as the Evergreen God Transformation could emerge, then the Divine Great Chun Tree, which was the spiritual vein center of Earth Star, would naturally obey his command. In this way, the Heaven Net Earth Vein Grand Formation, the Immortal Sect’s greatest reliance, would no longer be an obstacle to them.

Although he was confident he could reach Void Refinement, the Evergreen God Transformation still wanted to leave behind a legacy. Old Ancestor Wen Ren would be the best choice.

At the same time, True Monarch Yun Hai also thought of something. He quietly activated his eighth-tier Heavenly Computing Pearl, but soon, his expression changed drastically: “Not good! The Spirit of the Great Chun is counteracting the Heaven Net Earth Vein Formation!”

“If we don’t act now.” Even Changchun Gongjiang and San Jue were somewhat confused.

Upon hearing this, Yuan Yang Sword nodded heavily, indicating he understood her resolve.

“Pure Yang, you never intended to fulfill that promise, did you? You’re trying to deceive Great Chun again to sway her heart. That would truly disappoint me, who originally held you in such high regard.”

In response, everyone remained silent. Which old senior was still hidden within Ju Mang Daoist Academy?
