"What is this?" Everyone was confused by the scene, not understanding what had just happened.

Even Xu Zimo hesitated for a moment.

After the Codex of Life and Death flew into his True Fate World, it actually hid itself.

"You took the Codex of Life and Death?" the Sky Shroud War God asked in shock.

"It seems to have entered my body and hidden itself," Xu Zimo thought for a moment and replied.

He couldn't reveal the truth about God World, so he could only say this.

"Can you try to summon it?" the Heaven-Saber War God asked hopefully from the side.

Xu Zimo shook his head and said, "It’s not under my control. I probably won’t be able to use it for a while."

He needed to study the Codex of Life and Death slowly in private. For now, he couldn't show them God World. After all, creating a world was too shocking.

"No one knows if this Codex of Life and Death is good or bad. Now that it has entered your body, there's nothing more we can do. Just keep your guard up," the Sky Shroud War God said. "I’ve also spoken to the spirit of the Abyss of Life and Death. If anything happens, feel free to e find me."

"Thank you, elders," Xu Zimo bowed slightly.

"Go now. Work hard for the Heaven's Will, but don’t die under it," the Sky Shroud War God reminded.

Xu Zimo nodded and turned to leave Imperial Valley.

As he watched Xu Zimo leave, the Sky Shroud War God looked at the other two and asked, "What do you think?"

"Not simple. I’ve seen the Holy Sons from these past few eras, but he’s the only one I can’t read," Xingzhe said from the side.

"All the previous Holy Sons who met us elders were either nervous or afraid. Only he remains calm and posed. He’s a good seedling," the Heaven-Saber War God nodded in agreement.

"I know all that. I’m asking about his True Fate," the Sky Shroud War God said. "What exactly was that thing? Even I felt uneasy."

"Why overthink it? Everyone has their own fate. Maybe the emperor of this era will e from our True Martial Sacred Ground," Xingzhe laughed.

……

Leaving Imperial Valley and the Abyss of Life and Death, Xu Zimo returned to the canyon.

At this moment, the surrounding core disciples were still waiting for Xu Zimo to emerge.

Seeing that he hadn’t e out for so long, many began to have bad assumptions.

"Did that guy actually make it in?" someone asked.

As they were talking, Xu Zimo slowly walked out of the Abyss of Life and Death.

"Zimo, how was it?" Lin Ruhu quickly stepped forward and asked.

"It was alright. Just chatted with the elders for a bit and then came out," Xu Zimo said.

"You really met the elders?" Xiang Qianheng asked in shock from the side.

Xu Zimo nodded slightly, glanced at the other disciples, and sighed, "Useless."

Watching Xu Zimo leave again, some disciples were quietly motivated.

"I’m going to try," said a disciple who hadn’t gone in yet.

After leaving the back mountain, Xu Zimo planned to visit the Scripture Pavilion to research some things and parted ways with Lin Ruhu.

He wanted to check into matters related to the Heavenly Dao Academy, the Mortal Dust Palace, and the Stone Race.

These would be his focus moving forward.

Upon arriving at the Scripture Pavilion, Xu Zimo used his status as Holy Son to go straight to the third floor.

The truly secret information of the True Martial Sacred Ground was kept there.

As for the fourth floor, that was the legacy of the four Grand Emperors.

He read through several books, including Chronicles of the Heavenly Dao Academy, Ten Forbidden Grounds: Mortal Dust Palace, and The Hidden Stone Race.

He basically read everything relevant.

This took him a full week.

The intelligence work of the True Martial Sacred Ground was indeed impressive.

They had intel on many hidden factions and movements.

Even though they resided in a corner of the far west of the Eastern Continent, they had a grasp on most of the changes across the continent.

Their network spanned all five continents.

After more than seven days, Xu Zimo left the Scripture Pavilion.

He had basically learned everything he wanted to know.

After returning to Yannan Peak, Xu Zimo resumed his cultivation.

He planned to first cultivate the Gate of Eternity from the Heaven-Unity Three-Gates God-Scripture, then condense the Power Vortex within his soul.

The closed-door session didn’t last long before his father, Xu Qingshan, sent someone to summon him.

When he returned to Green Mountain, winter had already begun.

Though it wasn’t snowing heavily, light snowflakes drifted in the air.

The trees on Green Mountain were still lush green.

Snowflakes settled on the branches, blending vibrant green with pure white.

Climbing the peak, Xu Zimo saw four people had already gathered.

They were Xiang Qianheng, Sword Monarch, Xia Zihe, and Jiang Xi'er.

When Xu Zimo arrived, the others didn’t say much, only Jiang Xi'er’s gaze flickered.

Sixth Grand Elder, Xiao Yuexuan, had already been released from confinement.

Though she had made many mistakes, she had also contributed much to the sect over the years.

Under the Sacred Lord's suggestion, the Baili Imperial Clan had essentially formed an alliance with the True Martial Sacred Ground.

Baili Xiao was not only the Baili Imperial Clan’s saintess, but had now returned the Soaring Immortal Physique, officially being part of the True Martial Sacred Ground.

Xu Zimo had anticipated this oute.

If Baili Xiao were just an ordinary disciple, the sect wouldn’t care.

But setting everything else aside, just being the female Grand Emperor’s personal disciple was enough for the sect not to make her an enemy.

In the struggle for Heaven's Will, the more people, the better the chances.

As for Baili Xiao, Xu Zimo would handle her himself.

……

“Father,” Xu Zimo greeted.

Xu Qingshan nodded, hands behind his back, and said, “I’ve gathered you all to share some news.”

“Is it about the Martial Heaven Tournament?” Xiang Qianheng seemed to know something and asked ahead.

“That’s right. You may have heard rumors already, once every hundred years, the Martial Heaven Tournament will officially begin soon. In the past, each session was hosted in rotation by one of the eight great imperial lineages of the Eastern Continent. This year, it’s the Baili Imperial Clan’s turn,” Xu Qingshan explained.

“The Martial Heaven Tournament is the largest petition in the Eastern Continent. Not only will disciples from the eight great imperial lineages participate, but countless top- and second-tier factions from across the East will join too. Especially now that the era of Heaven's Will is approaching, this tournament is even more significant.”

“Vice-Lord wants us to represent the sect?” asked Sword Monarch.

“Yes. You five have been chosen,” Xu Qingshan said.

“I will personally lead the group to the Baili Imperial Clan. You have three months to prepare. I’m telling you now so you can make proper arrangements.”

“Can I not participate?” Jiang Xi'er suddenly asked from the side.
