Chapter 1438: The Monk's Goal

it may take several days." 。"Fang Yu said," 。"Well " 。Ye Shengxue wanted to go too, but Fang Yu didn't speak up, so she didn't dare to ask. 。Late at night, Fang Yu thought about it and gave Qin Lang a...Wu Chenzi listened to the monk's words, frowning.

He had anticipated the appearance of this holy relic even during his cultivation within the Holy Temple.

It's not just him; everyone who has ever entered the Sanctuary should know what the appearance of this holy artifact means.

Wu Chenzi naturally wanted to obtain this holy artifact.

But Fang Yu's presence made him hesitate.

He fought Fang Yu head-on, proving completely helpless and directly resulting in the loss of his physical body.

And just the other day, Fang Yu demonstrated to various regions how he slaughtered ten supreme beings.

Faced with Fang Yu... Wu Chenzi had no confidence whatsoever.

Even now, he has almost fully comprehended the second Dao Fruit he cultivated in the Holy Institution.

He could just give up that holy artifact... But he really wasn't willing to.

If one could obtain that artifact, the chance of ascending to immortality... would increase by at least tenfold!

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!

On one side is the enormous threat from Fang Yu, and on the other... is the hope of immortality.

Between these two, Wudengzi had not yet made a choice.

"Let me remind you again, many Saints have already gone to the Tiannan Mountain Range." The monk continued, "If you don't go, you'll just waste this opportunity."

Hearing this, Wuchenzi's heart skipped a beat.

"Fortune, it always hides within danger." The monk said calmly, "If you don't want to take risks, then don't expect to find fortune."

"This is the law from ancient times."

Wudchen lowered his head, his heart conflicted.

Go or not

Go or not

That artifact cannot be destroyed, Wu Chenzi did not go... It will inevitably end up in the hands of some alien race, or a saint.

By then, Wuchenzǐ will have no further chance.

If he now goes to the Tiannan Mountains, there is a chance he could obtain this holy artifact and rise to prominence!

He couldn't deny it; Wudouzi's words had touched his heart, changing his mind.

"Master, I've always had a question in my heart... are the visions of the Immortal Realm that the Holy Institution shows us... real" Wudengzi asked, looking up.

“Of course it is real.” The monk said calmly.

Upon receiving this answer, Wudouzi nodded and was about to leave.

But before leaving, seeing the smiling monk, he thought of something again and asked in a deep voice, "Monk, since this holy artifact is so powerful... why... are you not interested"

The monk chuckled softly, then turned away, facing the other direction from Wudengzi.

"Wu Chenzi, you always want to know everything about the world," the monk said. "But there are things in this world that you cannot and are not qualified to know."

At this point, the monk's tone turned icy cold.

Although he had his back to Wudengzi, Wudengzi could still feel a sharp and cold glint like a sword locking onto him.

"...I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said that." Wudichen's face changed, and he immediately lowered his head to apologize.

Recently, due to anxiety and unease about the future, he did overstep boundaries when interacting with the monk.

Although the monk had never laid a hand on anyone, he was well aware that given his close ties with the monastery and the academy...

The monk's power was far beyond his imagination.

Even if we set aside the matter of strength, monks are still people you shouldn't offend.

Because the monk was his benefactor.

Had he not been guided into the sacred grounds by a monk, today he... would simply be an ordinary cultivator, perhaps even having long since run out of his lifespan centuries ago.

"But I can tell you the answer to that question. The reason I am not interested in this sacred artifact is because... it has no use for me." The monk said calmly, "Also, I know you've always been curious about what I want... I might as well tell you that too."

At that moment, the monk slowly turned around to face Wuchenzi.

Wu Chenzi's heart trembled, his face changed slightly as he looked at the monk.

"I've always been waiting for a moment, a long-awaited moment." The monk still smiled.

"What... time" Wudouzi asked.

"Tell me first, what moment are you waiting for" the monk countered.

"I... want to become an immortal. I'm waiting for the moment when the Immortal Dao opens again!" Wuchenzi hesitated for a moment, then answered firmly.

"I... I'm just like you." The monk said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Wuchenzi was stunned.

He really didn't expect that the monk's ultimate goal would be to become an immortal as well!

Before, the monk had never expressed such intentions.

... but the monk's displayed strength and seniority ... seem indifferent to attaining immortality.

"Monk, you also want to ascend to immortality..." Wuchenzi said in surprise.

"No, I don't aspire to ascend. To me, the Immortal Realm... is merely a return."

At this point, the smile on the monk's face suddenly vanished.

Those eyes, which had always crinkled at the corners when he smiled, were now wide open, revealing pupils that gleamed with a cold light.

These pupils, like a viper's eyes, radiated an aura of extreme danger.

Just by coming into contact with that gaze, Wuchengzi felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave, his whole body numb and stiff.

Return to...the Immortal Realm!

That is to say, monks are... immortals!

"Wuchenzi, I have satisfied your curiosity. You... should leave now." The monk's eyes narrowed again, he said.

Wu Chenzi was still in shock, but hearing the monk's words, he dared not disobey.

"I... shall be leaving now."

Wuchenzi bowed his head in acknowledgment to the monk, then stepped back two paces and circulated his incantations, leaving the space.

The monk watched as Wudouzi left, then lowered his head to gaze at the reflection in the clear spring.

"It's almost here, that moment is finally approaching," the monk murmured to himself. "I can finally... leave this barren land and return to the upper realm."

"I should get some things ready."

Saying that, the monk suddenly stood up.

At this moment, the scene around him suddenly rippled like water.

The clear spring beneath my feet vanished, and the surrounding scenery returned to nothingness.

The monk stood still, lifting his head and squinting slightly.

"Zeng!"

The next second, his body vanished.

……

Tiannan Mountain Range, central region.

Fang Yu was blasted back hundreds of meters, stabilizing his body in mid-air.

Now, looking back at the original spot, all that could be seen was a thick cloud of smoke billowing into the sky.

And the beam of light that had crashed down from the heavens had already dissipated.

One could clearly sense the terrifying aura emanating from within the layers of smoke and dust.

That which is guided by the laws of life... has finally taken shape.

Things have come to this, Fang Yu is no longer in a hurry.

What could possibly be the thing that drew so many foreign tribes to this place He was very curious.

Thinking this, Fang Yu suddenly rushed towards the smoke and dust ahead.

"Whoosh..."

Just then, dozens of portals appeared in the sky above the Tiannan Mountains.

And within these portals, figures flashed in and out with astonishing speed.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate! me know." 。"Fang Yu said" 。"Alright, the gift I have for you today is these three men." 。Huayanyan turned around and said: 。Fang Yu looked at the three white-masked men who stood straight and silent,...
