I Can See Through Everything - Chapter 714

Chapter 714: Sky-breaking Sword Sect, Signs of a Great Disaster
“Old Thirteen,” under everyone’s gaze, felt a pang of anxiety.
He knew this was his chance to shine.
If he could answer to the clan leader’s satisfaction, his status within the clan would rise, and he would have more resources to gain.
He considered his words, thinking carefully before speaking slowly.
“Clan leader, I have an idea. How about we find someone to join forces?” As soon as
these words came out, everyone shuddered, as if startled.
Some, even more furious, showed on their faces.
The most furious among them was undoubtedly “Old Seven.”
“Good old Thirteen, I thought you had some good plan, but you’re just trying to cooperate with outsiders? Do you know how many people out there are coveting the token we hold, and yet you’re still trying to bring in a wolf?”
“Indeed, our immortal clan’s token is a legacy passed down from our ancestors. We absolutely cannot share it with outsiders!”
“Thirteen, have you accepted bribes from someone, so you’re deliberately instigating us here?”
“Old Thirteen, do you intend to make my clan a sinner?”
Amidst these stern shouts, the purple-robed middle-aged man’s expression grew serious.
Seeing this, Old Thirteen’s heart skipped a beat, and he quickly declared, “Everyone, things aren’t as you think. I have absolutely no suspicions about my clan. If this is false, may I be struck by lightning and be instantly struck by the Five Decays of Heaven and Man, so that we won’t survive the next soul tribulation!”
Hearing the oath emanating from Old Thirteen’s soul, everyone froze.
Because the oath Old Thirteen had sworn was a soul-defying oath aimed directly at the heart of the Dao.
It wasn’t something to be sworn lightly. If violated, while it wouldn’t necessarily come true immediately, it certainly would significantly impact one’s future path, making it more difficult and obscure.
Seeing Old Thirteen boldly swear such a soul-defying oath, the crowd finally stopped criticizing him.
The purple-robed middle-aged man’s expression softened slightly.
“If you have no ulterior motives, then why did you make such a suggestion? Don’t you know that the token of entry into the Guixu Secret Realm is the hope of our immortal race, and outsiders must not be allowed to meddle with it!”
“Of course I know, but Clan Leader, I’m not trying to boost your morale, but you’re well aware of the strength of those major sects.
While our clan has a strong foundation, seizing opportunities from them would be a stretch.”
The purple-robed middle-aged man fell silent.
He wasn’t one for arrogance, so he knew what Old Thirteen was saying.
Even Old Thirteen’s words were an understatement. With their current immortal clan’s strength, if they truly faced those clans, it wouldn’t just be a struggle; they’d be extremely difficult to defeat.
However, they were determined to obtain the treasure within the Guixu Secret Realm. It was crucial for their clan to regain its former glory and reunify the Great Yuan Immortal Realm.
As long as they could obtain that treasure, any price would be worth it.
Thinking of this, the purple-robed middle-aged man had already made a plan.
“It seems, Old Thirteen, you have everything planned out. So, tell me. Who do you want our clan to partner with? Or, which clan contacted you and asked you to come and persuade them?”
Initially apprehensive, Old Thirteen heaved a sigh of relief at the clan leader’s words, a smile breaking across his face.
He knew the clan leader had finally been persuaded.
…
Somewhere in a vast galaxy outside the Great Yuan Immortal Realm, in a secret starry realm.
Within this secret realm, countless sword-like peaks reached the sky, seemingly cleaving through it all.
Amidst countless peaks, a flash of sword light flickered and wandered. After a few breaths, it landed on the summit of one of the most majestic peaks in the secret realm, revealing a young man in white.
“Master Sword Master, you’ve sent a message to your disciple. What’s the matter?”
The young man in white respectfully saluted a gray-robed elder on the mountain peak.
“A few days ago, a treasure enshrined in the sect’s ancestral hall suddenly moved. I think the Guixu Secret Realm is about to be unveiled.”
The gray-robed elder spoke slowly, his back to the young man, his hands clasped behind his back.
“Guixu Secret Realm?”
The young man in white was stunned at first, then his eyes suddenly widened as if remembering something.
“Master Sword Master, are you talking about the Guixu Secret Realm that appears once every hundred thousand years and is said to have been left behind by the Huadao Immortal?”
“Yes, that’s the secret realm.” The gray-robed elder nodded. “Rumor has it that within the Guixu Secret Realm lies a relic left behind by the Huadao Immortal. Its appearance will inevitably attract competition from many factions.”
“What do you mean, Sword Master?”
“The relics left by the immortal Huadao are of great significance. Whoever obtains them will probably change the power structure of the surrounding immortal realms. Naturally, we cannot sit idly by.
However, it is rumored that the Guixu Secret Realm has been restricted by the Guixu Taoist, and only cultivators at the Yuanshen Realm can enter.
If a strong person above the Yuanshen Realm breaks in by force, he will surely die unless he is stronger than the Guixu Taoist.
You should select some Yuanshen Realm disciples from the sect, and wait until the day when the Guixu Secret Realm opens, lead them into it, and see if you can seize the opportunity.
Even if you can’t seize it, you must not let it fall into the hands of the demonic forces.”
After hearing the gray-clothed old man’s instructions, the young man in white became serious: “Yes, Master Sword Master!”
“There is no need to be too anxious about this matter.” The gray-clothed old man said, “According to the files left by the ancestors, the unusual movement of the token only means that the Star Sea is fluctuating. There is still some time before the Guixu Secret Realm is truly born. You don’t have to rush to select disciples.” “Disciples
know.”
“There’s one more thing,” the gray-robed elder continued. “Not long ago, I received news that a peculiar young man, wielding our sect’s Heaven-Splitting Sword Intent,
caused quite a stir in the Tianyuan World within the Great Yuan Immortal Realm, killing several Soul-Realm cultivators there.
The human forces within the Great Yuan Immortal Realm have protested this.
In your free time, send someone to investigate and find out what’s going on.”
“A young man who understands the Heaven-Splitting Sword Intent?” The white-robed youth was stunned. “Anyone who can kill Soul-Realm cultivators must have at least achieved Soul Accomplishment. When I return, I’ll investigate who has recently been training in the Tianyuan World.”
“Alright, then you go and see.”
The gray-robed elder nodded and waved his hand.
“I’ll take my leave.”
The white-robed youth bowed, then transformed into a streak of sword light, soaring into the sky.
After the white-robed youth had departed, the gray-robed elder turned around, a trace of worry on his weathered face.
“The emergence of the Guixu Secret Realm draws ever closer to the time warned by the Third Patriarch, yet we still have no idea what the so-called Great Tribulation will be.”
Thinking of the Third Patriarch’s instructions, the gray-robed old man grew increasingly solemn.
The descriptions in those instructions were truly too astonishing.
“We can only take things one step at a time. I hope the emergence of the Guixu Secret Realm will reveal a hint of the Great Tribulation.” (End of Chapter)
