Tianxuan wants to save the world

In this ten-thousand-word long manifesto, the Cultivator Gu Xinghan revealed the true face of the Heavenly Mystery Spirit Locking Array to the world.

It replaces the heavens with its Formation, usurping its authority.

Like a shadow, it monitors the world.

It extracts cultivation to serve Tianxuan Locking Spirit.

It treats Zhong Sheng as cattle and horses, blocking the Dao.

The manifesto enumerated the evils of the Lock Spirit Array and pointed out that the true body of the Heavenly Mystery Spirit Locking Array was actually the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance's supreme treasure, the tianxuan mirror.

The tianxuan mirror aimed for Transcendence by using all Cultivators in the world as sacrifices.

Gu Xinghan called upon Cultivators to unite, shatter the Lock Spirit Array, and restore a bright and clear Xuanhuang World.

Although the Sky Alliance immediately debunked the rumors, denying the matter and issuing a Heavenly Execution Order for Gu Xinghan.

However, the various strange changes that occurred in the world after the Heavenly Mystery Spirit Locking Array became widespread over the past century were evident to all.

The Sky Alliance's strong denial could not silence the numerous Cultivators.

For a time, Cultivators were filled with righteous indignation.

However, the Sky Alliance had ruled the Xuanhuang World for thousands of years, and its prestige remained.

The number of Cultivators who responded to Gu Xinghan's call and dared to truly stand up and resist was negligible.

These scattered individuals were quickly suppressed by the Sky Art Masters dispatched by the Sky Alliance.

Only Gu Xinghan was never caught.

His efforts were not entirely in vain.

The seed of doubt had been planted.

Cultivators became more vigilant towards the tianxuan mirror and the Heavenly Mystery Spirit Locking Array.

Cultivators throughout the Xuanhuang World began secretly researching methods to evade the tianxuan mirror's prying eyes.

Fissures gradually started to appear within the Sky Alliance.

News spread of Cultivators serving in the Sky Alliance privately expressing dissatisfaction with the Lock Spirit Array, only to be arrested and severely punished as a warning to others.

In Anchor Year 268, an image was projected onto the green sky of the Xuanhuang World.

Although it was quickly blocked, and the subsequent content could no longer be seen.

But the brief moment it appeared before everyone's eyes was enough to completely ignite a wave of resistance among Cultivators.

A wall, towering into the clouds, located somewhere unknown.

Countless Cultivators were suppressed and lay dormant within the wall.

On the wall's surface, only faces with closed eyes and eerie smiles were visible.

"Fellow Daoist, this is the Eternal Immortal Wall. All the Cultivators who have disappeared over the past century have been imprisoned here by the Sky Alliance…"

The slightly urgent voice-over abruptly ended.

It was only a fleeting glimpse, but the densely packed faces on the Eternal Immortal Wall were enough to send chills down the spines of all surviving Cultivators in the world.

To be immersed in an illusion, suppressed for all eternity, how was that different from death?

The Sky Alliance's actions were truly too horrifying and exceeded the Cultivators' bottom line of tolerance.

For a time, cries to overthrow the Sky Alliance and shatter the Lock Spirit Array rose one after another throughout the Xuanhuang World.

And within the Sky Alliance, the opposition, which had been dormant since the Lock Spirit Array became widespread, also launched its attack at this time.

The flames of war instantly spread across the Xuanhuang World.

Xiao Heng's Resurrection Immortal was also one of the many resistance organizations.

Han Wuyou, along with Xiao Heng, Su Xiaomei, and other old acquaintances from the Li Realm, reunited and began their war against the Sky Alliance.

The combined strength of the vast majority of Cultivators in the world was undeniably powerful.

However, the number of Sky Art Masters in the Sky Alliance far exceeded people's imagination.

The great war lasted for three full years.

Cultivators continuously suffered casualties, but the number of Sky Art Masters never decreased.

If the Sky Art Masters had not held back their full strength in an attempt to capture Cultivators alive, the Cultivator side would probably have been defeated long ago.

The decline was evident, and no light of victory could be seen.

Cultivators gradually collapsed.

The war slowly evolved into a one-sided capture.

In Anchor Year 273, the Sky Art Masters discovered the Resurrection Immortal's stronghold.

Zhang Haobo and Su Xiaomei tragically died in battle to cover the retreat of the others.

But they still could not prevent the demise of the Resurrection Immortal.

At a critical moment, Su Changyu made a Breakthrough during the battle and perished with the Sky Art Masters who came to capture him.

Xiao Heng, Han Wuyou, and others thus escaped with their lives.

In Anchor Year 274, Xiao Heng was severely wounded and died of his injuries.

Before his death, he entrusted the Resurrection Immortal Legacy to Han Wuyou.

Han Wuyou accepted with tears in his eyes.

Relying on Only Hand Covers the Sky and the Myriad Phenomena Furnace Art, Han Wuyou constantly hid, never being captured.

In Anchor Year 290, the number of surviving Cultivators in the world was sparse.

The Sky Alliance's arrests slowly eased.

In Anchor Year 304, the Sky Alliance issued a general amnesty, stating that as long as Cultivators were willing to return to the Sky Alliance and Cultivate the Heaven Mending Record according to their quota each year, all past offenses would be forgiven.

Cultivators successively returned to the Sky Alliance from the wilderness.

In Anchor Year 315, it was discovered that the Cultivators who had returned were not in danger, and more Cultivators chose to return.

In Anchor Year 324, the Sky Alliance began construction projects of unknown purpose in various states and regions. Huge golden obelisks rose from the ground, standing in the center of each state.

In Anchor Year 369, Han Wuyou made a Breakthrough to the Nascent Soul Late Stage. He changed his name to He Buyou, returned to the Sky Alliance, and went into潜伏 again.

Han Wuyou discovered that at this time, the identity of the personnel in charge of affairs within the Sky Alliance had all become Sky Art Masters.

For Cultivators who surrendered, the Sky Alliance would still provide corresponding Cultivation resources.

The price, however, was the need to Cultivate the Heaven Mending Record even more.

In Anchor Year 370, Han Wuyou temporarily suspended his own Cultivation and began to diligently study the Heaven Mending Record.

In Anchor Year 393, because of his twenty years of unwavering and focused Cultivation of the Heaven Mending Record, contributing a large amount of Heavenly Dew points, Han Wuyou was praised by the Sky Alliance.

He was granted the identity of a Level 4 Sky Art Master and received the position of Immortal Official, responsible for managing and supervising the Celestial Repair work of over a thousand Cultivators.

In Anchor Year 404, throughout the Xuanhuang World, huge beams of light erupted from the tops of the obelisks, shooting straight into the sky.

The earth and sky both trembled.

The energy eruption from the obelisks lasted for seven days.

In Anchor Year 412, Han Wuyou, who had been researching for nearly forty years, combined the Formation knowledge he had gained from the Formation-breaking disk and comprehended the function of the Heaven Mending Record.

The Heavenly Mystery Spirit Locking Array usurped the authority of the heavens, attempting to replace it.

But the core of the Lock Spirit Array, which was the tianxuan mirror, overestimated its own abilities.

Only under an overloaded state could it barely maintain the normal operation of all Lock Spirit Arrays.

Therefore, it needed external help to share some of its pressure.

Only Cultivators could achieve mutual communication with 'heaven and earth'.

This was also why the Sky Alliance needed Cultivators to Cultivate the Heaven Mending Record, and Sky Art Masters could not.

Han Wuyou vaguely saw hope for overthrowing the Lock Spirit Array.

But at the same time, he was slightly worried.

Because if the tianxuan mirror achieved Transcendence and completed its transformation.

It would no longer need Cultivators to Cultivate the Heaven Mending Record.

Without making a sound, Han Wuyou kept this matter to himself, continuing to lie low and wait for the opportune moment.

In Anchor Year 434, Han Wuyou was ordered to go with a team of Sky Art Masters to Tianpan State to handle a 'Wicked' incident.

In casual conversation, Han Wuyou learned that in recent years, the world's wickedness had shown a tendency to gradually spread.

In Anchor Year 459, the obelisks once again shot out beams of light.

Rumbling sounds continuously came from the sky.
