Chapter 318: Guo Qing, a benefactor of the Southern Regions!
In the Immortal Realm, the Saints deduced through the slave marks on those controlled by his father, Jiang Fushan, that something had happened to him, but he wasn't dead.
That's why they used Heavenly Thunder to attack the cultivators of the Southern Regions.
Moreover, the display in this simulation showed that the plan of the Saints in the Immortal Realm was indeed quite good.
They could advance or retreat as needed!
The risk they took wasn't too great.
However, Jiang Yifeng was pondering whether his father, Jiang Fushan, had deliberately spared Immortal One... Immortal Thirteen back then.
Did he plant slave marks on them?
Could it be that his father had laid this trap early on?
Could it be that when his father returned, he was severely injured?
Was the suppression of all Saint-level powerhouses just a bluff?If the opponent really fought desperately, was there no guarantee of victory?
So, did he subdue Immortal One, Immortal Two... Immortal Thirteen in stages?
Was the purpose to show the Saints of the Immortal Realm?
To make them speculate about his condition because of these people?
To make the Saints in the Immortal Realm hesitate to act rashly?
Was it actually to buy time?
To give him a chance for reincarnation and re-cultivation?
The more he thought about it, the more Jiang Yifeng felt this was likely.
If not, according to common sense, Immortal One... Immortal Thirteen should have been taken back to the Southern Regions by his father, Jiang Fushan, to protect him!
Thinking of this, Jiang Yifeng smiled slightly.
It seemed he had misunderstood his father before.
In previous simulations, he always thought his father, Jiang Fushan, was just a hot-blooded brute.
Now it seemed that wasn't the case.
His father, Jiang Fushan, indeed had some tricks up his sleeve.
Brutishness appeared to be just his father's outward demeanor!
Afterward, Jiang Yifeng stopped thinking about it.
He continued to look at the simulator.
[After the Saints in the Immortal Realm made their plans, they began to gradually send Immortal Lords of the Golden Immortal level to execute them.]
[Initially, those dispatched Immortal Lords were very cautious, not daring to unleash too strong Heavenly Thunder attacks on the cultivators of the Southern Regions.]
[It seemed to be a kind of training for the cultivators of the Southern Regions.]
[Under such circumstances, although the cultivators of the Southern Regions were miserable, there were no casualties!]
[Instead, some Chosen ones emerged.]
[In the same realm, most of these people surpassed the older generation.]
[However, good times didn't last long.]
[As time passed, the power of the Heavenly Thunder released by those from the Immortal Realm gradually increased.]n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
[Gradually, some cultivators from the Southern Regions with insufficient foundations began to die under the Heavenly Thunder.]
[For a time, many cultivators began to flee, trying to escape the Southern Regions.]
[But when these cultivators reached the edge of the Southern Regions, they found they couldn't leave at all.]
[They were trapped within the Southern Regions.]
[It's worth mentioning that the formation in the Southern Regions was actually only at the peak of the Quasi-Saint level.]
[If there were a large number of powerhouses at the Great Principal Golden Immortal level, it could be forcibly broken.]
[However, due to the ongoing war between the Immortal Realm and the Nine Mystic Realm below the Saint realm,]
[The powerhouses of the Southern Regions had long gone out to support.]
[At this time, where could a group of Great Principal Golden Immortal level powerhouses come from within the Southern Regions?]
[As for seeking help from outsiders?]
[It's also unlikely!]
[The powerhouses of the Nine Mystic Realm outside the Southern Regions were at a disadvantage in their battles with the people of the Immortal Realm; they could barely take care of themselves.]
[Moreover, everyone believed that your father, Jiang Fushan, was in seclusion in the Southern Regions, thinking it was the safest place.]
[They wouldn't deliberately come to check the situation!]
[Now, the only person in the Nine Mystic Realm who knew about the situation in the Southern Regions might be Bai Moyu.]
[Unfortunately, Bai Moyu was too timid.]
[He had already guessed that your father might have had a problem, and he didn't dare to show himself at all!]
[In the blink of an eye, nearly a million years passed.]
[Time came to around ten million years ago in the real world.]
[One day, the severely injured and dying Guo Qing arrived in the Southern Regions.]
[His physical body was destroyed, and he didn't want to go back and implicate his timid master, Bai Moyu.]
[So, he wanted to reshape his physical body in the Southern Regions.]
[In his view, the Southern Regions were still the safest place.]
[Not only was there the protective formation set up by his master, but also your father, Jiang Fushan, a peak half-Dao level powerhouse, was stationed there.]
[However, decades later, he realized how absurdly wrong his idea was.]
[The constant harassment of Heavenly Thunder made it impossible to peacefully reshape his physical body.]
[He wanted to rush out of the Southern Regions and kill the Immortal Clan members releasing the Heavenly Thunder.]
[Unfortunately, he couldn't get out either.]
[The current formation in the Southern Regions had no cracks; it was a formation that only allowed entry, not exit.]
[To get out, the formation had to be shattered.]
[In his current state as a mere remnant soul, Guo Qing didn't have that strength.]
[Guo Qing's situation was also known to Bai Moyu.]
[For the first time, he stepped out of his Bronze Gate, heading towards the Southern Regions with Bai Ruoxue.]
[Wanting to rescue Guo Qing.]
[Unfortunately, as soon as he appeared, he was blocked by the Saint-level powerhouses from the Immortal Realm.]
[Quasi-Saint Bai Ruoxue wanted to fight desperately; however, Bai Moyu ultimately chickened out!]
[Without any chance of victory, how could he, a Saint realm, and his daughter Bai Ruoxue, a Quasi-Saint, possibly be opponents for the many Saint realm powerhouses of the Immortal Realm?]
[Fighting now wouldn't save Guo Qing and would even cost Bai Ruoxue, and possibly himself.]
[Bai Moyu just took one look at the Southern Regions and decisively fled with Bai Ruoxue.]
[After this, Bai Moyu, fearing Bai Ruoxue would do something foolish, sealed her memory and cultivation.]
[And hid with her inside the underground Bronze Gate of the Celestial Verdant Sect.]
[As for Guo Qing?]
[Knowing that reshaping his physical body was hopeless,]
[He left numerous cultivation secret realms throughout the Southern Regions, hoping to leave a legacy.]
[After completing everything, Guo Qing laughed heartily, merging his remnant soul into his sword, becoming a Sword Spirit.]
[He only hoped that one day he could fight the Immortal Clan again as a Sword Spirit.]
[The place where he became the Sword Spirit of the Heavenly Profound Sword also became his most important legacy site!]
[Although you only reached the Six-star Ancient God realm in this simulation, you had the strength to rival a Quasi-Saint.]
[You could still observe everything happening in the Southern Regions.]
[You saw it all with your own eyes.]
[Of course, as an invisible person now, you could only watch and couldn't change anything.]
[Time passed, and in the blink of an eye, millions of years went by.]
[At this time in the Southern Regions, the power of the Heavenly Thunder, which struck every few decades, had become terrifying.]
[Although it wasn't necessarily fatal,]
[The number of people who could withstand it was dwindling.]
[The few Chosen who managed to withstand a wave were essentially crippled.]
[Gradually, the number of cultivators in the Southern Regions dwindled!]
[Those who could break through to the Immortal realm were almost nonexistent.]
[The Southern Regions almost truly became a land of mortals.]
[Fortunately, Guo Qing left many legacies, scattered across the Southern Regions.]
[This prevented the path of cultivation in the Southern Regions from being completely severed.]
[Seeing this situation, you couldn't help but murmur, "Guo Qing, the benefactor of the cultivators in the Southern Regions!"]
