The ninth heaven had collapsed for ten thousand years, and during that time not a single cultivator had managed to ascend and become a true God. Not only did none of them manage to become true Gods, but the loss of the ninth heaven hence the spiritual energy in the world became increasingly and more thin. Many senior cultivators estimated it to be less than ten thousand years later if the ninth heaven did not also open, the spiritual energy would probably completely disappear.
Liang Song looked around, he and his young disciple were no longer on the battlefield but a familiar secret room. His memories were again revolving around that fierce battle, how true cultivators were slaughtered by bloodthirsty demons and demon cultivators. A heroic young man wielding a sword, fearlessly clashing a weapon with the demon lord. Liang Song remembered the name mentioned by his young disciple, Liu Xing Sheng!
Wasn't that the name of the Soaring Cloud Sect disciple who had a Heavenly destiny?
He took out the jade bell that was now lying on the table, the spiritual riot had also previously subsided, "Fengying, it was not in the thought that you would get a big harvest." Liang Song said suddenly, his eyes twinkling while his face revealed a satisfied look.
"This bell, the teacher knows?" Bai Fengying looked at the bell in her teacher's hand, at a glance there was nothing special about it.
"What we saw just now should have been a future outlined, a disaster written in the book of divination. Yuan Qing had returned to his bloodline, Liu Xing Sheng being the most promising young man in the cultivation realm. The only artifact that can reverse time and is bell-shaped; the cause of the war of Gods and Demons ten thousand years ago, the Destiny-breaking Bell."
When he heard the name, Bai Fengying's countenance instantly became horrified. Not expecting something that he thought the beautiful ornaments of the Gods turned out to be heavenly artifacts.
"It seems that this is the destiny of heaven, the Sky sect has not only a divination book, but also an artifact capable of taking one to another time!" Liang Song lightly patted his young disciple on the shoulder, then said, "Fengying remember, heaven has given way. The safety of this realm is in the hands of our noble sect!"
"Teacher's right, Fengying will help with all her might!" Bai Fengying replied without hesitation.
"What is your current level of cultivation?"
"Reply teacher, be on a final stage soul adventure!" Bai Fengying replied with pride. Although in the younger generation of him there was Liu Xing Sheng whose growth challenged the heavens, but in his own generation despite not being the first, he was not, he would be second only to Xue Hualing who had reached the nascent soul realm.
"Very good!" Liang Song nodded a few times, looking satisfied with the achievements of his young disciple. "Teachers will research how to use the Destiny-breaking Bell and when the time comes the teacher will tell you" he said then gestured for Bai Fengying to retreat.
...****************...
Hualing gasped, every breath heavy. His current condition was enough to scare Xie Shaosheng to death, not only did he look pained, but also his face was as pale as paper.
Slowly Hualing released his grip, he looked at Xie Shaosheng who did not show a good expression. Worry was radiating in the soft eyes, "all is well, brother don't worry." Hualing endured the lingering discomfort and softly said, trying to calm down. He did not know if those words were for Xie Shaosheng or for himself.
Unexpectedly, the thing he was afraid of was actually happening with such a close period of time. However, with all the happenings and ambushes against Yuan Qing, making the Sky sect the holder of the Destiny-breaking Bell was not something surprising. Things regarding future destiny, it was not the turn of humans to interfere even though they established themselves as immortal cultivators. Unless there was an external factor that allowed him to meddle in the path of heaven, and that external factor was him.
"Is it a counterattack because you told him the secret of heaven?" Xie Shaosheng was unable to think of any other possibility besides that.
"It's true about the secrets of heaven, but it's not about you. It's about me." Hualing knew his words would not be able to appease Xie Shaosheng who had always loved him, but it was better than to have his brother overwhelmed with guilt.
"Ling'er.." You can tell brother, Xie Shaosheng wants to say that, but he knows even if Hualing says it, not necessarily he can help, "I'll find a teacher!"
"Brother, there's no need to tell the teacher about this. However, I have something to ask you." Said Hualing looking at Xie Shaosheng who was still standing beside him. The look of his face was stiff, his usual clear eyes now looked deep.
"Ling'er could say," Xie Shaosheng sat himself in the chair he had previously sat in, looking directly at the glare of the eyes he had never seen in Hualing's eyes.
"It's about the blue flower bell. Whether my brother feels comfortable carrying it or handing it over to someone else,"
Xie Shaosheng looked at his original form that had been forgotten. He was silent for a while with his forehead fused together, as he solemnly considered a few things, "it was actually a little uncomfortable to bring it on his own, not knowing if Ling'er objected to helping keep it." he replied later.
"Ling'er has no problem keeping it, but it would be better if it was left to the teacher."
Xie Shaosheng looked at the calm look of his youngest sister then recalled the ability of the blue flower bell. Although it is not heaven-defying, but to be able to prevent the change of destiny due to the interference of the Destiny-breaking Bell, is not something simple.
"Ling'er can arrange it" said Xie Shaosheng, handing over the blue bell. In his heart he believed that Ling'er knew something uncomfortable to talk about, and that it had to do with the secrets of heaven.
