Ringing the Bell for a Hundred Years, I Became the Sect’s Ancestor – Chapter 163

Chapter 163: The Bronze Gate

The Yellow Wolf Demon Saint reacted very quickly. With a wave of its hand, streaks of demonic energy shot out, striking the void. Immediately, billowing mist rose, sealing off the area.

Both it and the Eagle Demon completed their demonic transformations simultaneously. Their massive bodies emitted a terrifying aura, and their formless Myriad Images Demonic Consciousness swept the surroundings.

But at this moment, a brilliant sword light descended from the sky, directly cleaving through the layers of mist.

In an instant, a figure descended from the sky, accompanied by the rolling expanse of the Blood and Qi Sanctuary.

“Not good, it’s the Blood and Qi Sanctuary!”

The Yellow Wolf Demon Saint’s expression changed drastically.

But there was nowhere for it to escape.

In an instant, it was engulfed by the Blood and Qi Sanctuary. Its demonic body rapidly shrank, returning to its normal size, and then it was pinned to the ground by a sword Qi.

The other Eagle Demon, without any suspense, was also pinned to the ground by sword Qi. Although it struggled, it was completely useless.

Their Myriad Images Demonic Consciousness had no effect on Li Qian whatsoever.

With a wave of his hand, Li Qian completely suppressed the demonic bodies of the two powerful Demon Saints.

“Mar━ Martial Saint.”

The Yellow Wolf Demon Saint’s face was extremely unsightly as it saw Li Qian walking in.

Because the opponent’s sword Qi contained a terrifying pure Yang energy, which was formed after tempering through the Thunder Tribulation.

Undoubtedly a Martial Saint.

They had just mentioned Martial Saints, and unexpectedly, one had appeared at their doorstep.

Not even formations could stop him.

“I’ll remember you.”

The Yellow Wolf Demon Saint stared fixedly at Li Qian, suddenly spoke, and then an invisible Myriad Images Demonic Consciousness dissipated from its body. Its body was devoid of any life force.

It had actually directly abandoned its demonic body.

The Eagle Demon on the other side sighed, “Ah, I forgot to consult the fortune teller before leaving. I shouldn’t have come here.”

After speaking, the Myriad Images Demonic Consciousness on its body also began to dissipate.

The two powerful Demon Saints had both decisively chosen to abandon their demonic bodies.

Looking at the two demonic bodies, Li Qian hadn’t expected these two Demon Saints to be so decisive. They probably didn’t want to be humiliated by him.

As for being remembered by these two Demon Saints, he didn’t care much.

He had probably exterminated the demonic consciousnesses of six Demon Saints in total.

One more wouldn’t make a difference.

As long as the Mortal Realm’s barrier remained intact, what could they do to him?

Perhaps outside, he, a newly ascended Martial Saint, would be at the bottom of the pecking order, but in the Mortal Realm, he was invincible.

With a wave of his hand, the sword Qi pinning the demonic bodies vibrated, instantly tearing them apart.

In the end, only two fist-sized Demon Stones remained.

Adding the three Demon Stones he obtained last time, he now had five Demon Stones, enough for him to use for a long time.

Next, Li Qian thoroughly cleared out all the demons in Lion Camel Demon City.

Thus, the Lion Camel Demon City forces were completely eradicated.

Next, he began to study the formations within Lion Camel Demon City.

Although he could easily enter and exit the grand formation now, it was actually because his mastery of the Lion Camel Ridge Formation Manual had reached the Major Completion level, and the grand formation was not perfect.

If the grand formation was complete and he didn’t understand formations, it would be very difficult for him to enter and exit.

For the next period of time, Li Qian would return to Time Bell Pavilion before the Mao Hour to cultivate through bell ringing, and then go to Lion Camel Demon City at night to study formations.

From time to time, lesser demons would return to Lion Camel Demon City, and Li Qian would conveniently eliminate them.

Thus, the various martial arts forces in Taiwu Circuit were surprised to find that the demons that used to frequently appear seemed to have completely disappeared from a certain point in time.

Taiwu Circuit finally ushered in a period of stability.

No one knew that Lion Camel Demon City, the source of the demonic calamity, had been completely wiped out.

However, the various forces still didn’t dare to venture deep into the Returning Dragon Mountain Range to investigate.

Therefore, no one would disturb Li Qian as he studied formations in Lion Camel Demon City every night.

The most troublesome thing was traveling between Time Bell Pavilion and Lion Camel Demon City every day.

With his flying speed, it was equivalent to commuting between two points.

Over time, he gradually adapted to this kind of life.

The situation in Taiwu Circuit stabilized.

The demonic calamities and traces of demons in other circuits of Great Chang also seemed to be subsiding. Even if there were occasional traces of demons, they were not as frequent as before.

On the other hand, other countries surrounding Great Chang were still in dire straits. Demonic calamities and traces of demons continued, showing signs of intensifying.

Time flew by, and five years passed in the blink of an eye.

For Taiwu Circuit, these were five rare years of peace.

There had not been a single trace of demons.

Even within Great Chang, the number of traces of demons was pitifully small, and the few demonic calamity zones seemed to have quieted down.

The various Daoist Prefecture forces within Great Chang were puzzled by this situation.

It was too abnormal.

They suspected that the demonic forces were brewing a major conspiracy.

Because the demonic calamity situations in several other countries outside Great Chang were becoming increasingly severe.

During these five years, Divine Sword Sect had also undergone significant changes, with three more Celestial Beings emerging in succession.

One of them was even Sect Master Feng Shaoyu.

Three years ago, in order to seek a breakthrough opportunity to become a Celestial Being, the Sect Master resigned from his position and devoted himself wholeheartedly to cultivation, finally stepping into the Celestial Being Realm a year ago.

Including Li Qian, Divine Sword Sect now had an astonishing nine Celestial Beings.

Time Bell Pavilion.

The Mao Hour.

The clear and melodious sound of the bell rang out, echoing throughout the entire Divine Sword Sect.

At this moment, all the disciples of Divine Sword Sect, whether Inner Sect Disciples, Odd-Job Disciples, or elders, were all engaged in cultivation.

Bathed in the sound of the bell, Li Qian began to cultivate.

Although his cultivation speed was now extremely slow.

He persevered, maintaining his daily cultivation routine.

After a session of cultivation, Li Qian suddenly had a thought and summoned the system interface to check the latest information.

Martial Saint Realm （Early Stage 9/100）.

Time Bell （Spirit 7226/100000）.

Great River Sword Qi （Third Level 3/100）.

Heartless Sword Intent （Myriad Images 2/100）.

Blood and Qi Sanctuary （Second Advancement Stage 11/100）.

Lion Camel Ridge Formation Manual （Major Completion 70/100）.

Looking at the latest information, Li Qian felt deeply moved. The speed was too slow.

This was still with the assistance of the bell sound in his cultivation. Otherwise, he couldn’t imagine how slow it would be.

For example, his Myriad Images Sword Intent had only increased by one point of progress in five years.

The only difference was that with this one point of progress, he felt that his Sword Intent had indeed improved.

According to what he learned from the Universe Bag left by Circuit Lord Yu Song, it was mentioned that Myriad Images Martial Intent supposedly had nine levels.

His current two points of progress should be equivalent to the second level of Myriad Images.

As for his Martial Saint cultivation, it had only increased by three points in five years, which meant it took a year and a half to increase by one point.

At the current rate, it would probably take him over 150 years to reach the Middle Stage of Martial Saint.

The third level of Great River Sword Qi was closely related to Sword Intent, so its progress was also very slow, taking about three years to increase by one point.

The Blood and Qi Sanctuary was slightly better, increasing by one point every two years.

The fastest progress was made in the Lion Camel Ridge Formation Manual, which had increased by more than forty points in these five years.

The reason for this was that he had spent a lot of time studying the formations in Lion Camel Demon City, which had greatly improved his formation mastery.

Once he completely deciphered the formations in Lion Camel Demon City, he would definitely move the entire formation system from Lion Camel Demon City to Divine Sword Sect. With the protection of such a grand formation, even if there were major changes in the Mortal Realm in the future, Divine Sword Sect would be much safer.

However, with his current formation mastery, it would definitely be difficult to completely decipher the formations in Lion Camel Demon City in a short period of time.

“After reaching Martial Saint, the cultivation speed is so slow, even with the assistance of the Spirit Instrument Time Bell. It’s most likely due to the suppression of the Mortal Realm’s barrier.”

Li Qian muttered to himself.

Within the Time Bell Domain, he felt the suppression from the Mortal Realm’s barrier was relatively light.

But outside, it was much more severe.

He had tried cultivating outside. Under the constant pressure, he felt somewhat powerless when cultivating, as if something was constantly interfering with his thoughts and consciousness, making it impossible for him to calm down.

Even studying the formations in Lion Camel Demon City was affected to a certain extent. Otherwise, he felt that his efficiency would be even higher.

Suddenly, Li Qian looked at Chai Shao who was cultivating below, a hint of surprise on his face.

“Is he finally about to break through?”

With a flicker of his figure, he floated down from the bell tower and arrived beside Chai Shao.

At this moment, a huge transformation was taking place within Chai Shao’s body.

The Sword Intent within his body was being drawn by an invisible force towards his Qi Sea Dantian, where it began to melt.

“Calm your mind, relax your spirit, and let the Sword Intent nourish your physical body, completing the final fusion.”

Li Qian’s voice rang out in Chai Shao’s mind.

Hearing the voice, Chai Shao immediately felt at ease.

A long time later, a powerful suction force suddenly erupted from Chai Shao’s body, and the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi from the surroundings began to gather.

After cultivating the Immaculate Sword Body, Chai Shao was finally about to break through to the Perfect Innate Realm.

It had taken him a full ten years to cultivate the Immaculate Sword Body, and only today did he finally succeed.

Compared to the lively and impulsive Bai Yun, Li Qian was more satisfied with Chai Shao.

To be able to calm down and cultivate the Immaculate Sword Body for ten years without giving up midway, such perseverance and steadiness were very rare.

After all, Bai Yun had already become a True Qi Realm martial artist seven years ago, and now she had even reached the Late Stage of True Qi Realm.

Chai Shao was still only at the Ninth Level of Postnatal Realm. If it were an ordinary person, they definitely wouldn’t be able to endure such torment.

Fortunately, this disciple had persevered.

A long time later, the gathered Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi dispersed, and Chai Shao’s breakthrough finally came to an end.

He slowly opened his eyes, his spirit radiant, and his whole body exuded an indescribable ethereal aura.

This was unique to those who had achieved Perfect Innate.

Li Qian suddenly had a thought and used the Spirit Sensitivity Technique to check Chai Shao’s Root Bone.

The next moment, his heart was filled with astonishment.

In his perception, the spiritual light emanating from Chai Shao had become incredibly radiant.

“After his Hidden Root Bone manifested, it was only at the Jade Bone level, but now it’s completely at the Treasure Bone level.”

Li Qian marveled.

Moreover, Chai Shao’s Treasure Light was very strong, definitely not Low-Grade Treasure Light level.

He had secretly observed the Treasure Bone level geniuses discovered by Divine Sword Sect a few years ago. Although they also emitted Treasure Light, it was completely incomparable to Chai Shao’s.

“I’m also at Perfect Innate, so my Root Bone talent should at least be at the Treasure Bone level as well. Moreover, my Immaculate Sword Body has transformed into the Immaculate Holy Body, so it might be even higher.”

Li Qian thought to himself.

Unfortunately, he couldn’t check his own spiritual light.

Treading Clouds Mountain Range.

Located in the heartland of Great Chang, Zong Province, it belonged to Hengwu Circuit.

Treading Clouds Peak, the highest peak in Treading Clouds Mountain Range, soared into the clouds. It was said to be the highest peak in Great Chang.

However, the location and name of this peak could never be found on the maps of Great Chang.

Even if one entered Treading Clouds Mountain Range, they would never be able to find Treading Clouds Peak.

At this moment, on the summit of Treading Clouds Peak.

The place was covered in snow and ice, extremely cold.

But on this summit, there stood a massive bronze gate. The two doors, carved with countless strange patterns, were tightly shut.

Outside the bronze gate stood ten people.

Two women and eight men, all appearing middle-aged or elderly.

If Li Qian were present, he would be able to recognize one of them as the donkey-riding old man who had given him the Great River Sword Qi.

Suddenly, the bronze gate emitted a faint glow.

All ten people looked serious.

The glow on the bronze gate gradually intensified, and finally, the two bronze doors slowly opened, revealing a deep, sea-like darkness inside, as if this bronze gate connected to a hellish world.

Suddenly, a strong energy fluctuation erupted from within the bronze gate.

◈◈◈

The ten people were already prepared and didn’t approach, but stood at a distance.

Woooooo.

Accompanied by waves of ghostly wails emanating from the bronze gate, a figure gradually emerged from the darkness, solidifying from false to real, and finally stepped out of the bronze gate completely.

When the people present saw this person, their expressions were all shaken, and their faces revealed awe.

“Greetings, Senior Brother Wang, welcome to the Mortal Realm.”

The person who walked out of the bronze gate was a middle-aged man who looked to be less than forty years old. Dressed in a green robe, his whole body exuded an ethereal aura with an invisible majesty that inspired awe.

The middle-aged man, Senior Brother Wang, simply nodded slightly.

“Senior Brother Wang, why have you come personally?”

The Celestial Image level ancestor of Zhenwu Temple asked curiously.

This Senior Brother Wang held a very high position within the sect. Although he wasn’t a Martial Saint yet, he was already a Top-Tier Celestial Image level Celestial Being. His future ascension to Martial Saint was basically a certainty.

Moreover, this Senior Brother Wang possessed exceptional innate talent. He was a rare High-Grade Rosy Cloud level genius.

If Treasure Light level genius represented the potential to reach Celestial Image level Celestial Being, then Rosy Cloud level genius represented the potential to reach Martial Saint.

High-Grade Rosy Cloud, even within the Martial Alliance, was a martial arts prodigy that only appeared once in a century.

“Do you know that a Martial Saint has been born in the Mortal Realm?”

Senior Brother Wang, the middle-aged man, said in a deep voice.

“What?”

Everyone present exclaimed in shock.

“Senior Brother Wang, how is that possible? With the restrictions of the Mortal Realm’s barrier, it’s impossible for anyone to achieve Martial Saint. What’s more, apart from those who possess National Treasure Artifacts in various countries, even native Celestial Image level Celestial Beings haven’t been able to achieve it.”

The Zhenwu Temple ancestor hurriedly said.

“Five years ago, a Thunder Tribulation appeared outside and bombarded the Mortal Realm’s barrier, causing large-scale irreversible damage. After a long investigation, we were able to roughly determine the location where someone in the Mortal Realm underwent the tribulation. It should be within Great Chang, where you are located.”

Senior Brother Wang said.

“Within our Great Chang?”

The several Celestial Image level Celestial Beings looked at each other in dismay.

A Martial Saint had been born within Great Chang, and they were completely unaware of it.

Suddenly, a Celestial Image level Celestial Being had a flash of inspiration and hurriedly said, “These past few years, the demonic calamities and traces of demons within Great Chang have shown signs of subsiding. Could it be related to the birth of a Martial Saint?”

“It should be. The demonic calamity in the Returning Dragon Mountain Range in Taiwu Circuit hasn’t shown any signs of activity these past few years, not even a single trace of demons.”

The Zhenwu Temple ancestor said.

He was the Circuit Lord of Zhenwu Circuit. After the previous Taiwu Circuit Lord fell, in order to prevent the demonic calamity in the Returning Dragon Mountain Range from spreading, he had joined forces with several other Circuit Lords to patrol twice over the years. Apart from the formation’s shroud, there had been no activity from that Yellow Wolf Demon Saint.

“No wonder the demonic calamity in my Yangwu Circuit has also been mostly quiet. That Yuan Shou Demon Saint hasn’t shown his face for many years.”

The Yangwu Circuit Lord suddenly realized, “Perhaps he has already been dealt with by that Martial Saint.”

“Therefore, the reason I’ve come to the Mortal Realm this time is to find that Martial Saint and try to win him over. If he can cooperate with our Martial Alliance to clear out the demonic calamity, perhaps we can delay the collapse of the Mortal Realm’s barrier.”

Senior Brother Wang said.

“Senior Brother Wang, is the barrier really going to collapse?”

The Zhenwu Temple ancestor asked in disbelief.

“The Martial Alliance has decided not to maintain the barrier anymore, so its collapse is probably unavoidable. Six years ago, Supreme Sage Baihe of our Dao Sect passed away. Now, Supreme Sage Wuxu of the Law Sect is in charge of the Martial Alliance, and the Supreme Sages of the other three factions have also been persuaded.”

Senior Brother Wang sighed and said.

“Supreme Sage Baihe has passed away?”

The ten people present were all shocked.

After all, they were all from Dao Sect and naturally held great respect for this Supreme Sage.

They knew that this Supreme Sage had been seriously injured before. Now that he had passed away, it meant that Dao Sect’s strength had greatly diminished, and its influence within the Martial Alliance would definitely be significantly weakened.

Moreover, Supreme Sage Baihe had strongly advocated for maintaining the Mortal Realm’s barrier.

Now that this Supreme Sage had passed away and Supreme Sage Wuxu, who represented the other faction, had ascended to power, he would definitely push for the second option.

“Senior Brother Wang, if the Mortal Realm is ultimately going to collapse, then delaying it doesn’t seem to make much sense, does it?”

A Circuit Lord couldn’t help but ask.

“Sooner or later, the situation will definitely be different.”

Senior Brother Wang shook his head, “If Great Sage Moli of our Dao Sect can achieve Supreme Sage before the barrier collapses, there might still be a chance to reverse the situation.”

When the few people present heard the name Great Sage Moli, they all showed respect.

This Great Sage was the most powerful Great Sage in Dao Sect after Supreme Sage Baihe.

Moreover, he was also the youngest Top-Tier Great Sage in Dao Alliance, said to possess Aurora level talent. Such talent was something that only appeared once in several hundred years within the human Martial Alliance.

In the future, he had a certain chance of breaking through to the realm above Martial Saint.

Once this Great Sage Moli achieved Supreme Sage, his status within the Martial Alliance would skyrocket, and he would have a lot of influence.

“Therefore, I hope you can all cooperate with me in finding that Martial Saint.”

Senior Brother Wang said.

As long as they had the cooperation of that Martial Saint, clearing out the demon race forces in the Mortal Realm wouldn’t be too difficult.

Even if this Martial Saint had just broken through, he would be absolutely invincible in the current Mortal Realm.

What’s more, the damage to the Mortal Realm’s barrier was also caused by that Martial Saint’s tribulation.

In terms of reason and sentiment, this Martial Saint should also step forward and take responsibility.

“Rest assured, Senior Brother Wang, we will definitely do our utmost to assist you.”

The ten Celestial Image level Celestial Beings hurriedly said in unison.

Senior Brother Wang nodded and then said, “Now tell me about the situation in Great Chang.”

“Senior Brother Wang, allow me.”

The Zhenwu Temple ancestor hurriedly said.

Then, he described the current situation in Great Chang in detail.

“Since Taiwu Circuit lacks a Celestial Being to oversee it, I’ll go there.”

Senior Brother Wang nodded and said.

He was different from the other Celestial Beings. He was only temporarily stationed here. After finding that Martial Saint, he still had to leave.

Staying in the Mortal Realm had too much of an impact on his cultivation.

He was already a Top-Tier Celestial Being and couldn’t stay for too long. If it affected his subsequent cultivation and his breakthrough to the Martial Saint Realm, it would be troublesome.

The reason Dao Sect sent him in this time was also to show their respect for that Martial Saint.

Moreover, it also involved a certain major secret that even Top-Tier Celestial Image level Celestial Beings might not know. Senior Brother Wang held the status of a Dao Child within Dao Sect, a position comparable to a Martial Saint, so he had the authority to know.

The Yu Family suddenly received news that a new Celestial Image level Celestial Being would be coming to Taiwu Circuit Lord’s Residence to assume the position of Circuit Lord.

The Yu Family was initially nervous, thinking it was a Celestial Image level Celestial Being with a family who would settle down in the Mortal Realm.

Then, they would have to move out of Taiwu Circuit Lord’s Residence and even give up most of their territory.

When the new Celestial Image level Celestial Being arrived, he was alone and even allowed the Yu Family to remain in Taiwu Circuit Lord’s Residence to serve him.

Only then did the Yu Family feel relieved.

Upon the Yu Family’s notification, the various forces in Taiwu Circuit quickly learned that a new Celestial Image level Celestial Being had taken over as Circuit Lord of Taiwu Circuit Lord’s Residence. They all sent their Celestial Beings to pay their respects.

For the past few years, Taiwu Circuit had been without a Celestial Image level Celestial Being, and the demonic calamity in the Returning Dragon Mountain Range had not been eradicated. All the forces had been living in cautious anxiety.

Although there were other Daoist Prefectures around Taiwu Circuit, if a major incident occurred, distant water couldn’t quench their immediate thirst.

Now, they could finally breathe a sigh of relief.

Li Qian was surprised to learn from his master that a new Celestial Image level Celestial Being had arrived at Taiwu Circuit Lord’s Residence.

However, surprised as he was, he didn’t care too much.

After all, he had already become a Martial Saint, so a mere Celestial Image level Celestial Being was nothing to him.

What’s more, wouldn’t having a Celestial Image level Celestial Being overseeing Taiwu Circuit reduce his burden?

In the future, if there were any serious demonic calamities or traces of demons, he wouldn’t have to be the first to respond.

Lion Camel Demon City.

Li Qian stood in an area, using his Spiritual Sense to perceive the fluctuations of the grand formation, searching for its patterns.

Over the years, he had been studying the grand formation in Lion Camel Demon City, and his formation mastery had improved significantly. However, he still hadn’t fully understood the operating mechanism of this grand formation, which was clearly a level higher than the Lion Camel Ridge Formation Manual.

“The Lion Camel Ridge Formation Manual I obtained was from the corpse of that Wolf Demon. Perhaps it’s not complete.”

Li Qian stroked his chin.

After all, the true core inheritance of the Lion Camel Ridge formations wouldn’t casually appear on a Wolf Demon.

The Lion Camel Ridge Formation Manual he had obtained was likely only a part, or a simplified version.

“I can only slowly improve my formation mastery. Once I completely grasp the Lion Camel Ridge Formation Manual and reach Perfection, perhaps I’ll be able to connect the dots and decipher the true core of this grand formation.”

Li Qian shook his head.

He wasn’t in a hurry for the time being. He could take it slow.

He looked up at the sky and realized that it was already bright.

Sometimes, he became too engrossed in studying formations and lost track of time.

So, Li Qian flew towards the outside of Lion Camel Demon City.

Just as he was about to fly out of Lion Camel Demon City, he unexpectedly sensed a green-robed figure hovering in the air outside.

The aura was very strong.

Clearly a Celestial Image level Celestial Being.

It should be the new Circuit Lord who had just arrived at Taiwu Circuit Lord’s Residence.

Li Qian didn’t intend to meet this person, nor did he want this person to know of his existence, so he decided to leave in a different direction.

But at this moment, the green-robed figure cupped his hands and said, “Senior, please reveal yourself. This junior has an important matter to request.”

“Huh?”

Li Qian was a little surprised. How did this person detect his presence?

Although he had used his Spiritual Sense just now.

However, Spiritual Sense was a higher level than ordinary spiritual consciousness. Even a Celestial Image level Celestial Being shouldn’t be able to detect his Spiritual Sense perception, right?

“How did you know this old man was here?”

He remained hidden in the mist and didn’t reveal himself. His hoarse voice rang out beside the green-robed figure.

“Although Senior is a Martial Saint and possesses Spiritual Sense, ordinary Celestial Image level Celestial Beings cannot detect it. However, this junior has a special secret talisman. If there’s any Spiritual Sense probing, it will issue an alert.”

The green-robed figure hurriedly said.

He hadn’t expected his luck to be so good. He had only arrived in Taiwu Circuit a few days ago and had a sudden urge to come to the Returning Dragon Mountain Range today. Unexpectedly, his talisman issued an alert, indicating that a Spiritual Sense was probing him in secret.

In this Mortal Realm, those who could possess Spiritual Sense were either demon race Demon Saints or that mysterious Martial Saint who had just broken through.

There was a big difference between the Demonic Consciousness of a Demon Saint and the Spiritual Sense of a Martial Saint.

Using the talisman on his body, he could naturally distinguish between the two.

Li Qian frowned slightly. This person actually had a secret talisman that could alert him to Spiritual Sense?

It seemed that in the future, he couldn’t casually use his Spiritual Sense to probe just because there were no other Martial Saints in the Mortal Realm.

“What do you want from this old man?”

Li Qian’s hoarse voice rang out again.

“Senior, you may not be aware, but due to your tribulation, the Mortal Realm’s barrier has been severely damaged. The infiltration of demon race forces will accelerate. Therefore, I request Senior to lend a hand and assist our Martial Alliance in clearing out the demon race forces in the Mortal Realm and maintaining its stability.”

Senior Brother Wang, the green-robed figure, cupped his hands and said.

Although this Martial Saint’s tribulation had damaged the barrier, it also presented an opportunity to completely clear out the demon race forces in the Mortal Realm.

A Martial Saint in the Mortal Realm would be absolutely invincible.

The demon race would have no choice but to abandon the Mortal Realm.

Once Great Sage Moli broke through to Supreme Sage, they would have a reason to persuade the various sects of the Martial Alliance to continue maintaining the Mortal Realm’s barrier.

“The damage to the Mortal Realm’s barrier is related to my tribulation?”

Li Qian frowned.

When he underwent the tribulation, an invisible net had appeared in the sky, weakening the power of the Thunder Tribulation. It seemed that while the Thunder Tribulation had been weakened, the Mortal Realm’s barrier had also been damaged.

It was as if the Mortal Realm’s barrier had taken a hit for him.

The power and terror displayed by the Thunder Tribulation back then were extraordinary. Without the support of the Time Bell Domain, he might not have been able to survive it.

“When will your Martial Alliance be able to completely repair the Mortal Realm’s barrier?”

Li Qian asked in a deep voice.

If the barrier could be fully restored and the demon race forces couldn’t enter, he would be able to live a carefree life in the Mortal Realm, peacefully cultivating through bell ringing.

Even if his cultivation speed was slower, it wouldn’t matter. He had plenty of time.

As long as the Time Bell remained intact, he, its Sacrificial Master, wouldn’t die.

It was another form of immortality.

If possible, he was willing to stay in the Mortal Realm forever, until he could no longer improve his cultivation realm.
