Chapter 19: True Spirit Immortal Method and Request for Aid (Part 3)
Yuan Shui Saint Emperor laughed and said: "I wasn't referring to that matter, but the Eleventh Realm junior suppressing the Black Abyss. Wasn't it you who secretly cultivated him? Before Xing Yuan left, he asked us to take care of his forces..."
That's the reason he brought it up.
Xing Yuan was willing to explore the path.
Naturally, there were conditions attached, including taking care of his forces.
This was a promise, and not just an ordinary promise. Breaking it would result in significant losses for them.
If not for this, he wouldn't care about the "minor issues" of the Eleventh Realm; he was afraid of an accident affecting himself.
"It wasn't me, rest assured. As for the Black Abyss, I will also take care of it; nothing will go wrong."
Of course, nothing will go wrong, that is all.
As for the opportunity, whether it can be preserved or not has nothing to do with him; it wasn't part of their agreement with the Star Abyss Saint Emperor.
"Then I can be at ease!"
The Boundless Saint Emperor no longer mentioned it but changed the topic, saying: "I wonder what this gathering is for this time..."
"Who knows..."
It wasn't just them discussing; others were puzzled too.
Soon, a voice came through.
"This matter is related to Xing Yuan you just mentioned." The convener of this gathering, Hong Yun, appeared.
Hearing Hong Yun's words, the Saint Emperors present all stiffened.
Xing Yuan had gone to explore.
Could something have gone wrong?
Would it affect their plans?
All the Saint Emperors were filled with thoughts.
"Hong Yun, just say it, what happened?"
Hong Yun didn't beat around the bush and directly said: "Not long ago, Xing Yuan used a special method to contact me."
"Has Xing Yuan reached the Newborn Land? According to the original estimate, wasn't it still a hundred years away?"
They knew the method of contact between Xing Yuan and Hong Yun, but according to the original plan, they were to wait until he entered the Newborn Land.
There was still a long way to go.
As expected, Hong Yun shook his head: "Xing Yuan hasn't arrived yet. He contacted me with only one purpose, to request help!"
Request for help!
The Saint Emperors were all shocked inside; this wasn't good news.
"What trouble did Xing Yuan encounter?" a Saint Emperor directly asked.
"He said he didn't know why he awoke early and got trapped. He needs us to rescue him so he can continue moving forward," Hong Yun explained.
Xing Yuan was sent out in a pseudo-dead state, allowing revival.
However—
"A premature revival, and being trapped, what did he encounter? During the crossing of realms, there shouldn't be such conditions, right?"
Revival was possible, but it was supposed to happen only upon reaching the Newborn Land, and only then could revival occur.
Hong Yun continued: "Xing Yuan himself isn't clear on the details, communication is difficult. He could only explain the basic situation, but the good news is he's found a way to rescue himself. It's just that with his own strength, he can't get out. He needs to rely on both external forces and his own strength to resonate so that he can escape."
"Rely on external forces, do you mean we should act?" someone asked.
"No, it's the people of the Newborn Land who need to act. He's closer to the Newborn Land now, so he needs the forces there."
"What a joke; if we had a way to influence the Newborn Land, we wouldn't need to spend so much time implementing the plan..."
"Isn't this making it difficult for us?"
Hong Yun remained unfazed, then said: "Do you really have no way? Remember, we made a promise that if we could help, we would definitely help. If there's truly no way, then so be it. But if there is a way and we don't help, that would be retribution, cutting off our own path of cultivation."
As beings of the Twelfth Realm, they wouldn't utter such childish words without reason.
Aside from taking care of forces, this was also one of the promises, and breaking it would have even more severe consequences.
It might even affect their path of cultivation.
This, for them, was one of the most serious outcomes.
After he said this, someone finally drew a breath and stood up, saying: "I have a way to contact a cultivator in the Newborn Land, but there's only one chance... Hong Yun, are you sure you really have a way?"
"Rest assured, Lord of Light, Xing Yuan wouldn't gamble with his own life."
The person who stood up and spoke was a mighty being enveloped in white light, making others feel like a spring breeze and wanting to be embraced and merged with him.
All the Saint Emperors present knew this famous Saint Emperor.
Lord of Light!
He is the source of faith for one of the largest faith cultivation schools in the Old Land Starry Sky, a fearsome powerhouse.
On the surface, he redeems and embraces everything, but in reality, he devours everything.
"Lord of Light, do you really have a way? The Newborn Land isn't that easy to contact..."
The Lord of Light's voice was gentle: "Since I've stepped forward, naturally, there's a way. Do any of you remember the heretic of my Light Faith, the Silver Light Lord?"
Present are all Twelve Realm Saint Emperors; once they know, they won't forget, thus they immediately recalled.
Hong Yun spoke: "The Silver Light Lord who was killed by the Boundless and sent to the Newborn Land?"
The impression of the Silver Light Lord was not shallow among the Saint Emperors present.
The Eleventh Realm beings killed and sent to the Newborn Land were either lone wolves or cultivators from non-Saint Emperor-seated forces.
The Silver Light Lord was the exception.
The Silver Light Lord, originally the strongest under the Lord of Light, was sacrificed by him.
Because the Silver Light Lord wanted to replace the Light Faith with Silver Light Faith to absorb faith and achieve the Twelfth Realm.
Eventually, the Lord of Light proposed the Silver Light Lord's execution, carried out by the Boundless Saint Emperor.
