Chapter 2156: Chapter 766: Six Divinity Transformation Experts Appear Together
Tai Geng Divine Venerable responded coldly upon hearing this: âSince you know this item came from Changchun Venerable, you shouldnât doubt its authenticity. As long as you help the Human Clan this time, itâs yours for free!â
âAlright, I can strike, but the item must be handed over to me first!â
Lingfeng Venerable, his gaze flickering for a moment, agreed coldly.
However, upon hearing this, Tai Geng Divine Venerable shook his head and said: âIf someone else said this, I wouldnât doubt it at all. But you, Lingfeng, such a heartless person, I cannot trust you!â
With that, he flipped his palm to take the item back, responding lightly: âIâll keep it for now. If you want it, do your part honestly; otherwise, you wonât have a chance with it.â
Continuing, he mockingly said: âBy the way, donât think youâre indispensable for everything. Xuanwu and Guanghan have been invited by Changchun Venerable; even without you, we can still fend off all invading alien races!!â
Upon hearing these words, Lingfeng Venerable couldnât help but frown slightly, then after a moment of silence, nodded and said: âI presume you donât dare to go back on your word, I agree.â
This threatening tone naturally made Tai Geng Divine Venerable quite displeased, but he knew there was no need to argue with this guy, so he just coldly replied: âIn that case, just wait for my message.â
Then he left the uncomfortable place without wanting to stay a moment longer.
After leaving Lingfeng Venerableâs Cave Mansion Daoist Temple, Tai Geng Divine Venerable proceeded east and quickly arrived at the ice plains east of the Ice Barbarian Country.
He traveled east on the ice plains and soon reached the top of a deep ice mountain.
The ice mountain was several thousand zhang high, its surface covered in tens of zhang of snow, with pure solid ice inside, lacking any mud or stone for support!
Even with Tai Geng Divine Venerableâs abilities, whether using Dharma Eye to observe the mountain or Divine Sense to probe, he couldnât find any signs of life within the ice mountain.
Yet he was absolutely certain that one of the oldest surviving God Transformation Venerables of the Human Clan, Guanghan Venerable, was self-sealed within the ice mountain to reduce or even halt the depletion of his lifespan!
This method of self-sealing to extend lifespan is commonly used by many God Transformation Venerables for longevity.
However, even if ordinary God Transformation Venerables use Secret Technique to self-seal for longevity, it only extends their lifespan by several hundred to a thousand years at most, so itâs not very effective.
Moreover, many self-sealing Secret Techniques have flaws; once unsealed, the lifespan will rapidly deplete multiple times faster!
Therefore, if one still has a hundred years of life left, self-sealing for a year and a half every so often doesnât work.
However, Tai Geng Divine Venerable knew that Guanghan Venerableâs self-sealing Secret Technique was different, combining his True Intent of Great Dao to slow the passage of time in a space through special environment and Formation using Ice Sealing Great Dao.
That way, although each time he self-seals heâd consume precious Spiritual Objects, the rapid depletion of lifespan upon unsealing wouldnât occur.
Otherwise, he wouldnât seal himself with just a hundred or two years of life left, hoping to breakthrough to Mid-stage of God Transformation for extended lifespan.
After repeated searches yielded no sight of Guanghan Venerableâs self-sealed figure, Tai Geng Divine Venerable, though amazed, quickly took out a Jade Talisman made of [Myriad Year Cold Jade], and infused his Mana to activate it.
This Jade Talisman was a token personally crafted by Guanghan Venerable before his self-sealing, handed with his own hands to Changchun Venerable, saying it could be used to awaken him when needed.
Now, Tai Geng Divine Venerable with the token activated it at Guanghan Venerableâs self-sealing location; a figure inside an Ice Coffin made of [Myriad Year Mysterious Jade], a dignified noblewoman in a white palace gown, suddenly sensed something and slowly opened her eyes.
âThe token has been activated; has Changchun Venerable encountered some difficulty?â
The noblewoman murmured with a low voice, waved her hand, opened the Ice Coffin and soon appeared outside.
âWhy is it you, Tai Geng, here? Did you activate the token?â
Beyond the ice mountain, after appearing, Guanghan Venerable frowned slightly and questioned Tai Geng Divine Venerable.
Tai Geng Divine Venerable replied respectfully: âSorry to disturb you, Guanghan senior. Changchun Venerable sent me with the token to awaken you. Our Human Clan is facing a great crisis and urgently needs your assistance to overcome it!â
This attitude was completely different from his dealings with Xuanwu Venerable and Lingfeng Venerable.
The reason wasnât that Guanghan Venerableâs power was much stronger, but because she was indeed a true senior in the Cultivation World, and had done many beneficial things for the Human Clan, even leaving a token for awakening despite self-sealing.
So Tai Geng Divine Venerable respected Guanghan Venerable for her character and reputation, not just her Cultivation Level.
After listening to Tai Geng Divine Venerableâs account, Guanghan Venerable, her face icy, quickly said: âGood, these alien races must be tired of living, daring to insult our Human Clan!!â
