From Xu Huanshan's original intention, he might not have abandoned the sect and selfishly pursued his own path. However, judging from the actual outco, it was precisely because he had been absent for many years, mysteriously disappeared, that led to the decline and fall of the Yellow Lotus Sect, a once prosperous Primordial Spirit sect.
Perhaps many of the younger disciples of the Yellow Lotus Sect, when recalling the glory of their predecessors, could not help but complain about Xu Huanshan, the Cult Master. However, they had to admit that only Xu Huanshan's return could resolve the current chaos within the Yellow Lotus Sect. For centuries, many descendants of the sect had invested considerable ti and effort in searching for Xu Huanshan's whereabouts, hoping to retrieve their Cult Master. Unfortunately, all their efforts yielded no results due to various obstacles and Xu Huanshan's mysterious disappearance.
When Xu ngying beca the Saintess of the Yellow Lotus Sect, being Xu Huanshan's descendant, she naturally put in extra effort to find him. As True Monarch Mountain Peak rose to power, Xu ngying refused to submit and resisted the True Monarch Mountain Peak's authority. As she gradually fell behind in the confrontation, she pinned her hopes on finding Xu Huanshan to turn the tide.
The mbers of the Yellow Lotus Sect always believed that Xu Huanshan had mysteriously disappeared and had not fallen, mainly because his soul lamp on the Main Altar of the Yellow Lotus Sect had never been extinguished. However, when Xu Huanshan left years ago, he used so thod to voluntarily sever the special connection between himself and the soul lamp. While they could still sense Xu Huanshan's life and death through the soul lamp, they could not locate his exact position. According to the general speculation within the Yellow Lotus Sect, Xu Huanshan might be trapped in so perilous place, making it impossible for him to escape.
Unfortunately, neither the mbers of the Yellow Lotus Sect nor other Primordial Spirit True Monarchs could find Xu Huanshan's whereabouts; their efforts to help were futile. But Xu ngying, as the current Saintess of the Yellow Lotus Sect, proved to have a vast Divine Ability. She paid a considerable price and finally obtained a clue about Xu Huanshan's location.
As for how Xu ngying obtained this information, she did not disclose the detailed process to ng Zhang.
At this point, Xu ngying paused for a long ti, probably considering her next words carefully.
Amidst her speech, Xu ngying observed ng Zhang's facial expressions, particularly when she ntioned that Xu Huanshan had fallen deep into demonic ways. She beca cautious.
ng Zhang's expression remained unchanged, but upon hearing this, even though Xu ngying didn't explicitly say it, he had already made so guesses.
Another individual willing to go to any lengths to break through for the sake of their own path.
How could a once respected Primordial Spirit True Monarch easily fall into demonic ways? ng Zhang also recalled the past encounter with Xu ngying in the area occupied by demons.
ng Zhang can be reasonably certain that Xu Huanshan most likely willingly fell into demonic ways to break through the bottleneck of his cultivation base. In the past, True Monarch Tian Zhu also reached the Primordial Spirit late stage but couldn't see a way forward. Unwilling to accept his fate, he resorted to unorthodox ans, seeking to possess the Fifth Rank Earth Spirit's body. While True Monarch Tian Zhu deviated from the right path, Xu Huanshan fully embraced the demonic path.
ng Zhang has not yet reached the Primordial Spirit late stage, so he cannot fully understand the despair of having no path forward. However, as a cultivator himself, he empathizes with their plight. Even at the peak of its power, the Taiyi Sect never produced a great power in the Return to Emptiness realm. ng Zhang recently obtained many Taiyi Sect inheritances from the Void Cauldron, but none contained information on breaking through to the Return to Emptiness realm. When he eventually reaches the Primordial Spirit late stage, he will also face the sa problem as Xu Huanshan and True Monarch Tian Zhu.
The Primordial Spirit late stage seems distant for a Gold Core cultivator like ng Zhang. For now, he puts this matter aside and focuses on the present. According to Xu ngying's account, after Xu Huanshan fell into demonic ways, he was not content with remaining in that state and actively sought a way to save himself. Over the centuries, he struggled countless tis against the demonic thoughts within, but he never gained the upper hand. Instead, he sank deeper into demonic ways, inching closer to complete demonization.
Now, Xu Huanshan is beyond redemption. He can no longer maintain the last trace of clarity in his mind. To prevent Xu Huanshan from becoming a demonic overlord and wreaking havoc on the world, Xu ngying had no choice but to make the righteous decision and kill him.
As Xu Huanshan's strength is formidable, even if he suppresses his power and offers no resistance, a Primordial Spirit True Monarch's instinctive response can resist Xu ngying's attacks. Alone, Xu ngying lacks the ans to kill Xu Huanshan. This is why she sought ng Zhang's help.
Xu Huanshan's intention in delving into demonic cultivation was to break through his cultivation base bottleneck. He didn't want to embrace demonic cultivation but underestimated its power, and the force of demonic demonization was overwhelming, even for a cultivator of his caliber.
ng Zhang's Divine Ability, Mind Reading, cannot decipher Xu ngying's thoughts, but his special Spiritual Awareness, stemming from his divination abilities, didn't sense any malicious intent from her. It seems Xu ngying is sincere and genuinely seeks ng Zhang's assistance.
Regarding her ntion of "Tian Dao rit," ng Zhang has a hunch about what she ans. Demonic cultivation often poses a greater threat than demonic beasts, causing more harm. Soone like Xu Huanshan, who can break through various barriers and reach the Primordial Spirit late stage, is an absolute genius and a remarkable figure. If he were from one of the prestigious Holy Land Sects of the Middle-Earth Continent rather than from a remote area like Jiuqu League, his achievents would be even more extraordinary. It would not be impossible for him to beco an unrivaled talent.
However, if such a remarkable figure completely falls into demonic ways and embraces demonic cultivation, it would signify a significant victory for the demonic path. This would not only be a loss for the entire Cultivation World but also potentially cause imasurable destruction to the Grand Dust World. The possibility of wreaking havoc and causing harm for thousands of years is very real.
If a cultivator were to kill Xu Huanshan before all of this could unfold, it would be a severe blow to the demonic path and averted a catastrophe for the Grand Dust World. Such an act could bring down heavenly rits as a reward from the Tian Dao, the heavenly way.
