  Inviting God was a special ability for the people of the Heavenly Dao Sect.

  However, they could only use it once in their life.

  The only use was to communicate with the seniors of the Heavenly Dao Sect who had left traces in the long river of history. At a huge price, they would communicate with these peak powerhouses to obtain key information and then use it to improve themselves.

  This was equivalent to paying a certain price in exchange for a chance to break through.

  In the past, the Heavenly Dao Sect had produced many powerhouses. The Inviting God mystic technique was part of the main reason.

  Unfortunately, due to the chaos of war and other reasons, the Inviting God mystic technique had already been lost.

  It was only when Lin Jiufeng gave the mystic technique, the Universe Clock, to Miss Hong that she comprehended the Inviting God mystic technique.

  She could only use this technique once in a lifetime. She could have used it to break through to the next realm, but now, she was willing to use it to solve Lin Jiufeng’s problem.

  In the dark hall, Miss Hong sat down. Her hands were placed on her lower abdomen. Her breathing was calm, and her glabella shone. A wisp of divinity erupted, bringing her soul into a mysterious world.

  Pu!

  In the very next moment, blood flowed from her nose. It was as if all her energy had been sucked out of her body. She instantly became weak and aged ten years.

  This was a very heavy loss for an immortal.

  She had injured her source energy.

  Moreover, this injury would continue as the time needed to execute the technique increased.

  As long as she didn’t stop channeling this technique, this kind of injury wouldn’t stop. Over time, it would cause permanent damage.

  At this moment, Miss Hong didn’t realize that her body was already bearing a huge burden. Her consciousness left her body and came to a magical space.

  It was a boundless wasteland. The sky was crimson, the ground was brown, and there were large ruins in the distance.

  Miss Hong’s spiritual body looked down and was instantly stunned.

  She was actually in the void at this moment.

  In the endless void, there was a world that seemed to have been destroyed.

  On this ruined world sat an old man. His face was aged, his hair was scattered, and his gray hair was mixed with white hair. He looked extremely old.

  Miss Hong walked over and looked at this old man. Suddenly, her hands formed a seal. A special seal that only the people from the Heavenly Dao Sect knew made the old man’s eyes light up.

  “I didn’t expect that a descendant of the Heavenly Dao Sect would come to look for me.” The old man’s voice rang as he laughed.

  “Miss Hong of the Heavenly Dao Sect greets Senior Elder Universe.” Miss Hong bowed.

  “Little girl, you are already at the Nine Restrictions of the Immortal Realm. You came to look for me this time because you want to ask about the method to break through to the next realm, right?” Elder Universe asked.

  “It’s a pity that you came too early.”

  “You shouldn’t have come to look for me to break through from the Nine Restrictions. This threshold isn’t a problem for the people of the Heavenly Dao Sect. You should have come when you want to break through from the Immortal King Realm. That way, your body can still persist for a long time. I can completely unfold the path of the Immortal King for you to comprehend in detail.”

  “You are still too weak. You can’t withstand my realm. You won’t be able to stay for long and can’t learn anything. All you can learn now is just the knowledge of the Nine Restrictions, it’s not worth it.” Elder Universe shook his head and sighed, saying that Miss Hong was too anxious.

  But in the next moment, Miss Hong shook her head and clarified, “I’m not here to ask about these. I’m here to ask Senior some questions for a friend.”

  Elder Universe was stunned. He looked at Miss Hong and asked, puzzled, “You know the price of executing Inviting God, right?”

  “I know.” Miss Hong nodded.

  “Since you know, why did you waste the Inviting God technique that can only be used once in your life on others?” Elder Universe asked, puzzled.

  Miss Hong was silent for a while before saying, “En, I feel that I should help him. He has also helped me a lot.”

  “This person is a male child, right?” Elder Universe chuckled.

  Miss Hong’s face was very calm. She wasn’t shy from Elder Universe’s teasing laughter. She faced it rather calmly. “Yes.”

  “What kind of male child is worthy of you paying such a huge price?” Elder Universe’s gossipy heart perked up.

  “Senior, I don’t have much time. My body won’t be able to withstand for too long.” Miss Hong reminded Elder Universe.

  “It’s fine. I will help you offset some of the pressure. When one is old, one will love to listen to gossip. You are the descendant of the Heavenly Dao Sect, which means you are also my descendant. I have no relatives in my life. The Heavenly Dao Sect nurtured me, and I treat the descendants of the Heavenly Dao Sect as my own children. Now that you have crossed endless time to come and find me, I naturally have to ask. This is probably the last time I get to communicate with the descendants of the Heavenly Dao Sect.” Elder Universe sighed.

  He raised his hand. His skin was dry and thin like chicken claws. There wasn’t much flesh left on him. He gently stroked Miss Hong’s forehead.

  Miss Hong didn’t refuse. She only felt her body relax, and her spiritual body became slightly more complete.

  The vast majority of the pressure was offset by Elder Universe.

  “Are you that powerful?” Miss Hong asked in surprise.

  The Elder Universe in front of her wasn’t a physical body. Moreover, he was different from Miss Hong. Miss Hong was a spiritual body while the Elder Universe here was only a wisp of mark that had been branded in the long river of time in the past countless years.

  But it was this mark that could help her resist so much pressure.

  Elder Universe’s power was really terrifying!

  “Do you see the ruins behind you?” Elder Universe sat on a huge rock and pointed behind him.

  Miss Hong nodded.

  “Do you know where this is?” Elder Universe asked again.

  Miss Hong’s eyes narrowed as she guessed. “It’s the Immortal Court, right?”

  She heard from Lin Jiufeng that in Elder Universe’s final battle, he killed his way into the Immortal Court and buried the immortal spirits of the old era, the gods, and the Immortal Court!

  This should be the Immortal Court.

  “That’s right. The Immortal Court that once ruled the world for tens of thousands of years was personally destroyed by me. The Immortal Court that was infinitely glorious and had extremely terrifying powerhouses and background was shattered by me. There won’t be another Immortal Court in the future.” Elder Universe smiled proudly.

  “You are really powerful.” Miss Hong praised sincerely.

  “Actually, the joy of destroying the Immortal Court isn’t as great as your arrival. I’m very happy to see you at this moment, so tell me, what kind of outstanding person is that male child to be willing to let you give up so much?” Elder Universe continued to gossip. His arrogance and smugness from before disappeared, like a grandfather of an ordinary family who was concerned about the gossip of his granddaughter.

  Miss Hong recalled and said, “He is a great hero, an idealist, and also a practitioner. The ideals of the Heavenly Dao Sect were implemented very thoroughly by him. He did what our Heavenly Dao Sect hasn’t done for tens of thousands of years.”

  “There’s such a person?” Elder Universe didn’t believe it and was very suspicious.

  He knew how ideal the ideals of the Heavenly Dao Sect were. Realizing it was really difficult.

  “The world is peaceful, the people are united, the common people at the bottom live and work in peace. There is no killing. Everyone has a bright future. Someone actually managed to realize such an ideal?” Elder of the Universe felt that Miss Hong was bragging.

  “Yes, it has been realized.” Miss Hong smiled for the first time. It was a happy, beautiful smile. She said it firmly.

  “In the future, the children of the farmers, the children of the merchants, the children of the scholars, and the children of the aristocratic families will all have a bright future. A nation called the Yuhua God Dynasty conquered the world, treated the common people well, and reformed all the bad habits. Countless immortals were born, and no faction dared to behave atrociously in front of the Yuhua God Dynasty. The Myriad Races actively integrated into the Yuhua God Dynasty, and there are new changes in the Yuhua God Dynasty every day.”

  “All of this was brought here by a person called Great Emperor Jiufeng.”

  “He’s the supreme powerhouse of this era.”

  “He saved me many times. I need to repay him.”

  “Moreover, he also actively investigated the Immortal Court and the God Race. He’s a person that I have to look up to.”

  Miss Hong said seriously.

  This was her true feelings for Lin Jiufeng.

  She had been paying close attention to what Lin Jiufeng had done. Even deep in the Northwest Territory, her source of information had never stopped. She was very clear about the latest events.

  “You praised this person too much.” Elder Universe curled his lips.

  Miss Hong said, “He deserves such praise.”

  “Alright, since you praise him so much, what exactly is the matter that he asked you to do?” Elder Universe asked.

  “After the passage of time, we are no longer able to find the original location of this map. Senior, please advise me.” Miss Hong took out the map.

  Elder Universe didn’t take it. Instead, he glanced at it. He raised his brows and asked, “Isn’t this a map of the Third World?”

  Miss Hong looked at Elder Universe in confusion. “?”

  “That was the world of the God Race, but it was subsequently destroyed by the Immortal Court. Then, it became a village, and this map was created. If you really look for it according to this map, it will be very difficult to find. It should have been closed, and the passageway to it from the main world has been sealed.” Elder Universe explained.

  “Then, how do we find the village in this?” Miss Hong asked.

  “Well, I’ll give you a solution. Back then, I even went into this place before. It was a magical place. If that whatever Great Emperor Jiufeng wants to go, you have to go too. You can learn a lot over there. You are too weak now, you have to improve yourself.” Elder Universe reached out and patted Miss Hong’s forehead. A memory was stored in her mind.

  Miss Hong nodded. She understood how to find the village now.

  “You still have a little time. Since you are here, I can’t be stingy. I will teach you some of the Great Dao so that you will take fewer detours on the path of cultivation. Perhaps in the future, you can bear some heavy responsibility!” Elder Universe said solemnly.

  Miss Hong asked curiously, “What do you mean? What will happen in the future?”

  “I don’t know. After I buried the immortal spirits, gods, and the Immortal Court of the old era, I discovered that there are many secrets behind them. I didn’t figure them out, so I didn’t tell you. But the Immortal Court will definitely recover in the future at a certain time,” Elder Universe said affirmatively.

  “Wasn’t the Immortal Court buried by you?” Miss Hong pointed at the distant ruins.

  “That’s only the tangible stuff. I can destroy the tangible ones, but I can’t destroy invisible ones. The tangible ones aren’t terrifying, but the terrifying ones are the invisible Immortal Court. You are the hope of the Heavenly Dao Sect, you have to work hard. I examined your body just now. You cultivated my Universe Clock, so I will teach you all my comprehension of the Universe Clock in my life. This pressure will be quite huge. Once you comprehend it, you will definitely be very powerful. The Immortal King Realm won’t be too far away for you,” Elder Universe said solemnly.

  Boom!

  After saying that, he directly injected a large ball of light into Miss Hong’s spiritual body without giving her much time to react.

  Miss Hong’s body trembled violently. She cried out involuntarily and floated up. She was surrounded by a large ball of energy and couldn’t move at all.

  Elder Universe waved his hand and directly sent her away, disappearing from this strange space.

  …

  In the hall, shrouded in darkness, Miss Hong had already fainted on the ground. Her face was pale and she was drenched in a cold sweat as if she had been fished out of water.

  Her body was stained with blood, and her limbs went soft.

  Although Elder Universe blocked most of the pressure for her, with his terrifying strength, the remaining pressure she needed to bear wasn’t something that the current Miss Hong could easily withstand.

  In a daze, Miss Hong woke up.

  She looked at her current tragic situation. She got up with difficulty and washed her body with her power. The long robe magic treasure on her body changed and washed the bloodstains away. Then, she let herself recover a little strength before she opened the door.

  Lin Jiufeng stood outside the door, his brows tightly furrowed. He couldn’t see what was happening inside.

  However, he smelled blood. He could also feel Miss Hong’s rapidly weakening aura.

  Perhaps executing the Inviting God technique wasn’t as easy as Miss Hong said.

  Lin Jiufeng’s mood was complicated.

  For his matter, Miss Hong actually paid such a huge price.

  He remembered this favor in his heart.

  When the door opened, what Lin Jiufeng saw was the delicate and weak Miss Hong.

  If the previous Miss Hong was a large red peony that bloomed beautifully, then the current her was a peony that had been beaten by the wind and rain. The leaves had drooped, lost their luster, and lost their vigor.

  “Why is your body so weak?” Lin Jiufeng asked in concern.

  “It’s nothing. This is just a simple sequela.” Miss Hong’s body still didn’t have much strength. She leaned against the door, revealed a pale smile, and said softly.

  “You injured your source energy.” Lin Jiufeng looked at Miss Hong solemnly.

  “I shouldn’t have come to look for you. I can look for others to decipher the map, but you injured your source energy because of me. This shouldn’t have happened.” Lin Jiufeng blamed himself.

  Miss Hong smiled slightly. “In actual fact, you really can’t find anyone else to help you on this. I should be the only one in this world who can solve this map. Even if others know the information of the map, they won’t be able to bring you in.”

  Lin Jiufeng looked at Miss Hong, puzzled.

  “I met Elder Universe, a senior of our Heavenly Dao Sect. I communicated with him and he told me the details of this map,” Miss Hong said slowly.

  She was very weak. She leaned against the door, her body weak.

  Lin Jiufeng hurriedly supported her to a chair and let her sit down, watching with concern.

  “You need to recuperate now. You can’t act rashly regarding matters of the source energy. Let’s talk about the map in the future,” Lin Jiufeng said solemnly.

  “It’s not a problem. I will recover this little bit of source energy after resting for a period of time. Elder Universe has already helped me resist a lot of pressure. Because my cultivation level is too weak, I can’t withstand the pressure of his huge cultivation base. This is why my source energy is injured. But if there’s a price to pay, there’s also a reward to be gained. I’ve already figured out the information on the map,” Miss Hong said.

  “Alright, let’s not talk about the map first. You need to rest, I will help you to your bed. Just rest and recover your source energy first. When you are better, we will discuss this matter again. Your body is important, I’m not in a hurry at all.” Lin Jiufeng interrupted Miss Hong and forcefully brought her to rest. He didn’t dare to be careless regarding the injury of the source energy.

  If anything happened to Miss Hong because of him, Lin Jiufeng would feel guilty for the rest of his life.
