Chapter 244: Parting is the Norm

Ten years passed in the blink of an eye. Now, with the help of Wu Yidao and the command of Lin Yahuan, the Heavenly Martial Sect had entered a state of near-stability.

As Sect Master, Lin Yahuan had already reached the True Immortal Peak. As for Tang Yan, he had awakened nine years ago, and due to the materials used to reshape his Physical Body, his talent was exceptionally terrifying.

In the short nine years since he awakened, he had broken through from a Mortal all the way to the True Immortal Peak. Coupled with the foundation and knowledge he possessed, even those at the Golden Immortal Middle Stage or even Late Stage were no match for him.

Standing on the highest peak of the Heavenly Martial Sect, looking down at the entire sect, and seeing that everything was in order, Wu Yidao's eyes were filled with satisfaction. With things this way, he could leave with peace of mind.

Just then, a figure came up behind him, gazing at Wu Yidao without speaking. Her eyes were filled with affection for Wu Yidao, which she could not hide at all.

"I am leaving. From now on, the Heavenly Martial Sect will be left to you to manage. If Wu Shengna ascends, then hand the Heavenly Martial Sect over to him. Go do your own things."

Wu Yidao did not turn around, remaining with his back to Lin Yahuan.

Hearing this, Lin Yahuan was silent for a long while before finally speaking.

"Wu Yidao, I… I like you!"

Lin Yahuan knew that if she did not confess her feelings to Wu Yidao now, she would likely never have the chance again. After all, based on her understanding of Wu Yidao, apart from this time, it would be very difficult to find another opportunity to interact with him in the future.

However, it was clear that Lin Yahuan did not understand one principle: if you confess when the other party has no feelings for you, the failure rate will reach ninety-nine percent.

Sure enough, after hearing Lin Yahuan's words, Wu Yidao couldn't help but sigh inwardly. He hadn't expected his charm to be so great that women would be moved by him wherever he went.

But Wu Yidao did not have feelings for Lin Yahuan; agreeing would truly be unfair to her. Therefore, without hesitation, just as Wu Yidao turned around intending to refuse, Lin Yahuan stepped forward quickly and covered Wu Yidao's mouth, saying:

"Don't speak. Give me a memory to hold onto, even if you want to reject me."

After saying this, Lin Yahuan did not wait for Wu Yidao and turned around to run away.

Seeing this, Wu Yidao couldn't help but stop his footsteps as he wanted to chase after her. He couldn't help but sigh, ultimately saying nothing more. If Lin Yahuan was willing to wait, then let her wait.

He had never promised anything. If he had to agree to everyone who liked him, wouldn't he have to accept everyone? Wu Yidao was not that pathetic; one must be decisive when necessary, otherwise, one would suffer from the chaos.

Taking one last look at the Heavenly Martial Sect, Wu Yidao resolutely left the Heavenly Martial Sect and headed in the direction of Mount Buzhou.

Meanwhile, Lin Yahuan, who was not far away, witnessed Wu Yidao's departure. Two lines of tears fell silently from her cheeks, making her look somewhat pitiful.

Standing beside her, Tang Yan couldn't help but sigh.

"Tell me, why do you torture yourself like this? He is clearly a man you cannot win over."

"Master, in this world, there are not so many 'whys'. There is only fate."

Lin Yahuan's tone was full of sadness. She did not regret falling in love with Wu Yidao; she only regretted meeting him. If she hadn't met Wu Yidao, would she not have fallen in love with him?

But fate is just like that. Without being strong enough to a certain degree, one is simply powerless to resist.

And the reason why she fell in love with Wu Yidao was merely due to fate. When Wu Yidao saved her, she had already fallen hopelessly in love with him.

Watching his Disciple in this state, Tang Yan also sighed, ultimately saying nothing more. After all, even he had an unattainable love in his heart.

He just didn't know how she, the one in his heart, was doing now.

As for Wu Yidao, his heart had been touched when Lin Yahuan expressed her feelings, but now it had returned to calm. He knew his mission; now was not the time for romance.

Furthermore, he really didn't have much interest in Lin Yahuan. After all, he wasn't a stallion, falling for every woman he met.

He quickly buried the matter of Lin Yahuan deep in his heart.

"Next is heading to Mount Buzhou. However, Mount Buzhou is the largest mountain in the entire Upper Realm; even if the Holy Lord and others were to take action, they could not destroy it. It is said that Mount Buzhou is protected by the power of the Heavenly Dao."

After arriving at Mount Buzhou, Wu Yidao looked at it from a distance, his expression extremely solemn. Upon arriving at Mount Buzhou, he perceived waves of magnificent aura emanating from within. Before Mount Buzhou, whether one was a Mortal or an Immortal Emperor, one could feel their own insignificance.

Inside Mount Buzhou, there existed many legacies of powerful beings and Secret Realms. At the same time, many powerful Yao Beasts existed on Mount Buzhou, establishing their own factions.

From Great Emperors to Immortal Emperor-level Yao Beasts, they all existed on Mount Buzhou. Although Wu Yidao's cultivation had not improved much in these ten years, he was only one step away from breaking through to Immortal King.

Not to mention that now he had the help of the Chaos Bell, making a trip on Mount Buzhou was not a difficult task.

"However, according to what the Holy Lord said, it seems that when the Founding Ancestor left the Holy Land, he also revealed that he was going to Mount Buzhou. I just don't know what exactly happened on Mount Buzhou?"

Thinking of this, Wu Yidao's expression was slightly solemn, but he did not retreat because of it. He had a premonition that he might be able to gain quite a lot from Mount Buzhou.

Meanwhile, in the Five Elements Holy Land, Qin Zijun had already arrived before Wu Zhene.

The moment he saw Qin Zijun, Wu Zhene understood and nodded, saying:

"Master, let's go."

"Mm."

Qin Zijun nodded, and the next second, he took Wu Zhene to the Forbidden Land of the Five Elements Holy Land, explaining to him while they walked.

"The Secret Realm for the Five Elements trial is located within the Forbidden Land of our Five Elements Holy Land; it is a Secret Realm. According to the guidance of the Founding Ancestor, only a person who can make the Five Elements Bell ring nine times can ignore the Restriction of the Five Elements Secret Realm and enter it."

Just as Qin Zijun finished speaking, a huge Space Gate appeared before Wu Zhene. On it, there were illusory chains that emitted a chilling cold, as if one would be frozen just by reaching out a hand.

And this was the entrance to the space for the Five Elements trial.
