"Old man."

While there was still noisy outside, Shangguan Xin came to Huang Zi's courtyard.

Huang Zi lazily raised his head and glanced at Shangguan Xin, and said feebly: "You're back."

Shangguan Xin glanced back, then felt the surrounding environment calmly, and even his own little world unfolded.

"You don't have to be so serious. As long as you enter my house, no matter how loud the noise is, you won't be able to hear it from outside." Huang Zi curled his lips, "I see that your shackles have loosened a little. I think you are ready?"

"

"Two hundred years ago, in order to break through the bottleneck, I went to Nanzhou. As a result, I accidentally entered the ancient battlefield of the Netherworld. I had to modify the treasure body technique. It was equivalent to cutting off an arm, but I finally got over it." Shangguan Xin snorted coldly,

Then he said, "And I also successfully broke through to the Earthly Immortal Realm... Later, what I saw, heard, thought, felt and understood in the Netherworld Ancient Battlefield also benefited me a lot. So fifty years ago,

I have already entered the Taoist realm."

"Very good." Huang Zi nodded.

Shangguan Xin sneered: "You asked me to go to Nanzhou back then, did you have a premeditated plan?"

"I'm not a magician like Ye Yan and Gu Sicheng. How can I predict what will happen two hundred years later?" Huang Zi rolled his eyes, "And even they can only deduce a hint of heavenly secrets at most, and then leave the rest.

You can only rely on your own speculation... No one in this world can accurately predict the future."

"Indeed." Shangguan Xin nodded, "Lao San also said that no matter it is my era, or the later Second Era, or the Fourth Era, there are only a few words left by history to record it. Although there are many historical legacy

There are many unsolved mysteries, but the development and evolution of many things are basically known to people.”

Having said this, Shangguan Xin paused for a moment, then spoke again: "Only the Third Era we are currently in...does not have any records."

Huang Zi chuckled lightly, his tone and posture were as lazy as ever.

"Then you must also know the only reason why this situation occurs."

"This world... is shattered, and all souls are annihilated." Shangguan Xin looked solemn. "But if this happens..."

"There won't be a third era? Right." Huang Zi chuckled, "Your era was shattered? Penglai, Kunlun, Fangzhang, Yingzhou and other five great immortal lands were directly shattered? There are still some incomplete remains floating today.

In the Dead Sea.Second

When the era broke, the eighteen continents were directly shattered and sank? They were almost extinct. Nowadays, it is only possible to find clues in some residual worlds and secret worlds... So tell me? Such a situation? Do you think this history is still true?

?”

"Old man, what do you mean..." Shangguan Xin frowned slightly and pondered for a moment before saying, "The third era we are in...is not broken? But it has just become a special area like the residual world? But there is no one there.

It was excavated, so that’s why it disappeared?”

"Of course, there are two other possibilities." Huang Zi shrugged, "One is that they are people from the Fourth Era? Deliberately erasing the news about our Third Era."

"What about the second one?"

"Why do you think the era I am in now is really the third era?"

Shangguan Xin was suddenly startled.

An incredible look appeared on her face.

"According to the theory of the era, the depletion of spiritual energy is the catastrophe of the end of the law, and when the spiritual energy in this world revives again, it will be the beginning of a new era." Shangguan Xin said in a deep voice, "If we can let the spiritual energy circulate around

And the beginning again? If it lasts for a long time, then one era can span a very long time... If there is no water in what Lao San said, the fifth era may be the most prosperous era in this mysterious world."

"Do you know the identity of Dieffenbachia?"

Shangguan Xin shook his head.

"He is the gatekeeper of the Netherworld Ancient Battlefield." Huang Zi said lightly, "His existence is to suppress the aura of the Netherworld Ancient Battlefield, causing unsuspecting people to stray into it and become the nourishment of the Lord of Heavenly Demons.

Help him get out of trouble."

Shangguan Xin's pupils shrank suddenly: "Is it because you are a thief?"

"It doesn't count." Huang Zi shook his head, "At best, I was just... scared to death. Then this flaw was taken advantage of by someone who wanted to, and that's how the following series of things happened... I asked you to go to Nanzhou before.

, firstly, that is indeed your place of nirvana, and secondly... I also wanted you to go over and spy on the situation of the Nanzhou Monster Clan. But I didn't expect that the people from the Peeping Immortal Alliance had already helped Ao Hai and Wannian Qing set up a trap.

The line was broken, that time you..."

Speaking of this, Huang Zi also sighed softly: "It's probably because Ao Hai accidentally killed him."

Shangguan Xin suddenly fell silent.

When Huang Zi said this, her mind changed and she understood what Huang Zi meant.

At that time, Ao Hai was secretly discussing cooperation with Wannian Qing, which was a major event for the demon clan.

And Huang Zi is the strongest person in the human camp, and she is the most capable disciple in Taiyi Valley. She is almost recognized as the successor of the next generation of martial arts, so her sudden appearance in Nanzhou will inevitably cause demons.

The clan's vigilance. In line with the principle of preferring to kill the wrong person rather than miss it, she was forced into the ancient battlefield of the Netherworld by the Blue Sea Dragon Guard at that time, and was trapped for more than two hundred years.

When Shangguan Xin thought of this, her teeth itched with hatred.

"Are you plotting against me?!"

"How can this be said to be a calculation?" Huang Zi rolled his eyes, "You came to me for advice at that time, don't you think I pointed it out to you... At best, it can only be said that you were unlucky at that time, so

You can’t blame me for this.”

Shangguan Xin snorted coldly, the anger still lingering on his face: "What on earth are you planning?"

"I don't have a plan, don't talk nonsense."

Shangguan Xin stared at Huang Zi, who still looked lazy and tired. Even his posture had not changed. Shangguan Xin knew that he could not get anything out of Huang Zi's mouth.

As for Huang Zi's statement that he had no plan, Shangguan Xin absolutely didn't believe it.

With her status and cultivation in the past, she naturally knows that people with their level of cultivation are no longer fighting for luck, but for the way of heaven.

Therefore, the plans laid by such people are far beyond the vision of other monks. They are even willing to spend thousands or tens of thousands of years waiting, laying out, and planning, just to accumulate a little advantage for themselves.

.

Just like Jiuliyou.

She would rather ruin two eras and almost destroy the entire mysterious world than admit her failure, just to get the last chance to make a comeback.

But it's a pity...

In the end, the success fell short.

Others may not know it, but Shangguan Xin knows that Jiu Liyou woke up and was born early, which made her like a premature baby with congenital deficiencies. And it is precisely because of this congenital deficiencies that she needs to be in the mausoleum.

He went on a killing spree to stabilize the foundation of his realm, hoping to break out of his cocoon again.

But she didn't expect that she was also in the Netherworld Ancient Battlefield, so all her plans came to nothing.

And all this is due to the double coincidence between her and Su Anran.

Others may think this is just a coincidence.

Even the Demon Alliance would think so.

After all, Shangguan Xin has been trapped in the ancient battlefield of the Netherworld for more than two hundred years, almost to the point of being forgotten by the outside world. But Su Anran has only begun to make a name for herself in the mysterious world in recent years, and this time she went to Nanzhou to provide support.

In order to give him some experience, it was even more unexpected that he would be involved in the Netherworld Ancient Battlefield. After all, the Demon Alliance launched a surprise attack at that time, which attracted the attention of the Netherworld Ancient Battlefield. It was impossible to predict who would be involved.

But Shangguan Xin would never think so.

If she accidentally entered the ancient battlefield of the Netherworld two hundred years ago, was it Huang Zi's arrangement?

Is it because at the last moment, she can act like a surprise soldier and kill Jiu Liyou, who is inherently deficient due to his premature awakening?

After all, it was Huang Zi's idea to go to Nanzhou in the first place.

As for Su Anran...

If it weren't for the fact that there was a soul in his divine sea that must have had the strength of the Taoist realm during his lifetime, then he would never have been able to subdue the Netherworld Ghost Tiger in the Netherworld Ancient Battlefield; and if there hadn't been the Netherworld Ghost Tiger, he would have disturbed

Without disturbing the balance of yin and yang in the ancient battlefield of Netherworld; and if the balance of the ancient battlefield of Netherworld was not disturbed, Jiuliyou would not be able to wake up early, and she would not be able to notice the changes in the ancient battlefield of Netherworld.

One coincidence is a coincidence, two coincidences can still be said to be coincidences, but if three coincidences occur at the same time...

Shangguan Xin never thinks that this kind of thing is a coincidence.

Even further extrapolating, why does Su Anran's divine sea host the soul of a powerful Taoist realm?

Is this Huang Zi’s deliberate arrangement or guidance?

At the very least, Shangguan Xin believed that if Huang Zi really wanted to take action, it would be impossible for the remnants of the soul in Su Anran's divine sea to remain in Su Anran's divine sea.

Various signs made Shangguan Xin insist that Huang Zi must be planning something.

He even suspected that Huang Zi might have already taken that step.

"Stop thinking nonsense, I am your master, how can I still deceive you?" Huang Zi felt a headache when he saw the suspicious look on Shangguan Xin's face.

Among the ten disciples, because of the height Shangguan Xin had reached, it was destined that her vision was never low. In addition, due to her previous status, she naturally knew many secrets.

In today's era, there is no room for casual cultivators to survive, not only because all kinds of cultivation resources are controlled by sects, but the most important thing is the experience in cultivation, various secrets, and so on.

This is also one of the main reasons why those small sects cannot compete with the big sects.

Because there is no real powerful person in charge, the sect lacks the vision and structure from a high position, and the competition for resources is difficult, which naturally leads to the extremely slow development of the sect. Therefore, even if these small sects have any good ideas
