Chapter 1114: Chapter 518: Huai Yin vs. Vermilion Bird
Gu Jianlin once saw the conversation between the Qilin Venerable and the mysterious man within a projection on the Destiny Mud Tablet.
Unfortunately, the projection on the Destiny Mud Tablet was too blurry to make out clearly. He guessed it was probably because the mysterious man had such a high rank that it couldn’t be fully recorded, just like the Qilin Venerable’s appearance was also vague.
Of course, the features of the Qilin Venerable are too distinctive, making it easy to confirm his identity.
However, the identity of the mysterious man has always remained an enigma.
Now, the truth has erged.
"There aren’t many who can co before ."
In the silence, the ancient whisper of the Qilin Venerable echoed:
"Even I did not expect that there would be soone as peculiar as you in this world."
His voice was like rolling thunder, filled with majesty and anger.
"So many years have passed, and there are still occasionally a few like ."
Huai Yin was not real, but rather a remnant image from the past. Naturally, he wouldn’t know the person before him was no longer the First Generation Qilin Venerable. He answered on his own: "Of course, what I am may not matter to you. What matters is that I’ve actually found traces of the Vermilion Bird in the Qilin Immortal Palace. This is surely intolerable for you, isn’t it? Perhaps you realized his existence even earlier than I did, and thus you know you have lost."
He paused for a mont: "Such imnse anger, tearing through dinsions, arriving out of thin air, truly terrifying."
The Qilin Venerable responded indifferently:
"Unfortunately, even though I acted, I still couldn’t stop him."
The tomb began to tremble slightly, showcasing his rage.
Huai Yin said lightly: "The prototype of the Third Law cos from the fusion of Ancient God Gene and human gene, but to truly reach the level of law, it requires the baptism of the Stairway to Immortality. Only then will the powers of the Candle Light and You Ying truly be completed within the body. By the ti you erge, the Vermilion Bird and Candle Dragon Supres will have already taken the lead."
"But how could the Qilin Venerable lose?"
He shifted his tone: "I think you’re already prepared, aren’t you?"
This ti the dialogue differed from the projection on the Destiny Mud Tablet.
The Qilin Venerable coldly asked: "Have you found a successor for ?"
Huai Yin took out a smartphone from his pocket, spent quite so ti just finding the album, and swiped vigorously with his finger to display it: "This thing is called a phone, a product of modern technology, a little creation from us humans, not considered advanced by your standards, but it should be interesting."
The focus wasn’t on the phone itself.
The focus was on the photograph, a black-haired boy sitting by the seaside, his school uniform billowing in the sea breeze.
"This is the successor I’ve chosen for you, quite a remarkable child, isn’t he?"
Huai Yin smiled and said: "I think with your keen eye, you can instantly see his uniqueness. That’s right, he’s Gu Ci’an’s son... More importantly, this child has an irreconcilable vendetta with the Vermilion Bird Clan."
The Qilin Venerable seed to be gazing at the boy in the photo, remaining silent for a long ti.
"There will also be soone standing in front of
in the future."
He answered indifferently: "The one you’re referring to is a different person."
Huai Yin chuckled quietly: "My junior’s person, huh? Seems our tastes are quite sharp. We both have arrived on the sa Mother Star where you were born, and have experienced what you went through. There’s no one else in this world who understands you better than us brothers, and of course, we’ll know... how you’ll choose."
In the darkness, there echoed the malicious, joyful laughter.
The Qilin Venerable seed to foresee the events about to unfold in the future, laughing loudly.
"Transplantation, defying the heavens to change fate, an unprecedented achievent, unparalleled through the ages."
Huai Yin sighed: "Even the Candle Dragon Venerable wouldn’t have imagined you had such ans. Truly you’re the deepest-hidden Ancient Supre. Truly you’re the Qilin Venerable, my admiration!"
Boom.
The fragnted golden brilliance flashed, piercing through the dark tomb, like the rising sun.
"I have glimpsed your end, human."
The Qilin Venerable spoke coldly: "It seems the Vermilion Bird won’t spare you, the disruptor."
Huai Yin was silent for a long ti, softly sighing: "One who wields the power over life and death can naturally foresee my end. But then what? That child was originally my choice for a successor. I’ve watched him for years at that broken delivery station, like an old man waiting for the gourd to ripen, hehe."
"All those years he didn’t know who I was, yet during the festivals, he’d co to pay his respects, and I’d casually give him a red envelope. I watched him go to school, watched him call
Lao Zhang, occasionally helped him send deliveries. Sotis I even had the illusion of when I gained another child?"
He laughed silently: "I was the earliest to see through his talent, initially wanted to use him as a tool, but later gave up. I hope this child can grow up safely, happily, and healthily. But then, the Vermilion Bird Clan found him and transford him into that state. That day, I kept vigil at the hospital all night, as he clenched his fist tightly even in a coma, his fingers bloodstained."
The Qilin Venerable fell silent, seemingly reminiscing about the past as well.
"How similar is that child to you, Venerable."
Huai Yin said softly: "So full of hatred, so full of anger... That’s when I knew he’s not yearning for the world he’s in, but wants to wield the blade and sword, to venture into the blood and fire. I finally changed my mind, instead of watching him grow diocre, why not protect him with my own hands, and give him a path to ascend to the heavens."
"The Vermilion Bird Clan and I have old grudges, how can I watch them bully my students again?"
He lifted his eyes: "This is my revenge, Venerate."
"No wonder you are the most like the Ancient God Clan among humans."
Qilin Venerable asked indifferently, "Perhaps for you, there is nothing on Earth worth longing for. Your true life has already... been buried in the past along with my mother star."
"Therefore, life and death are no longer important to . We have a common enemy. Throughout the ages, for soone like
to cooperate with a great existence like you is indeed an honor."
Huai Yin lifted his eyes, and a black Ink Jade Mask floated in the void before him: "I was not born to look up to others. Since I cannot beco a True God, then... neither can anyone else."
He held the Ink Jade Mask in his hands, turned around, and walked into the light, disappearing without a trace.
"Farewell, Venerate."
Boom!
Gu Jianlin abruptly awoke, the projection from the past had crumbled amidst the roar, and as the tomb’s doors burst open, the canopy of the Candle Light Divine Tree ca into view, like a sea of gold.
But in this mont, the Candle Light Divine Tree was suddenly engulfed by vermilion flas, and the call of the Vermilion Bird resounded across the sky!

The battle among the catastrophes was undoubtedly the pinnacle of the Human World. Four strongest who shared the sa master fought from the East to Siberia, crossed the snowy plains to reach the Ice Sea, then traversed space-ti from the Extre North to Western Europe, waging war all the way to the Himalayas, with the final battlefield appearing in the western Tibetan Region.
At the site of Gangrenboqi Peak.
"The teacher’s consciousness has dissipated."
Jiang Yanli gazed into the distance, lanting, "The old man is finally gone."
Huai Yin bowed his head, stroking the head of a snow leopard, seeing its docile yet fearful expression, he smiled: "For the teacher, this is a form of liberation. The dust of the past age should have long vanished. To let him see the strongest inheritor in history before dying is surely a beautiful thing for him."
Clearly, amidst their battles, these apprentices were also concerned about the affairs in Magic City.
Two streaks of sword light flashed across the vast sky, slicing through the clouds with Sword Qi.
That was Gold and silver.
They too realized that the teacher’s consciousness had dissipated and gave up the battle to rush back to Magic City.
The Qilin had already risen, and the Order World was about to be entirely destroyed by him.
If Gold and silver do not return to defend, their grand plan will be completely ruined.
"Do you want to go back, or should I?"
Jiang Yanli said with a smiling squint: "How about flipping a coin?"
"Stop pretending. Don’t I know you?"
Huai Yin sneered: "This was your plan all along, right? My ally is that black Supre, and your ally has always been that blood Supre. Now your rank is not as high as mine, Vermilion Bird Venerate will surely kill
first, then turn back to kill you. Since it won’t be easy to kill
otherwise."
Jiang Yanli’s smile remained unchanged as he stepped back, speaking lightly: "Is our collaboration over?"
In the wind and snow, his smile beca blurry, and his silver hair fluttered in the wind.
"It’s over, get lost."
Huai Yin said blandly: "Just as well, I’ve disliked the Vermilion Bird for a long ti."
On the snowfield, Gangrenboqi Peak was suddenly lit up by blazing golden light, and the sky was ripped open by a massive rift in ti and space. A Golden Ancient Tree appeared, its roots interlaced, piercing through the wind and snow. Even if it was just a part of its body, its splendor and grandeur were plain to see, as if it connected two worlds.
Rumble.
The roots of the Golden Ancient Tree descended from the sky to the peak, with its glorious patterns spreading throughout the entire mountain range, causing the ground within miles to tremble, and animals and insects to flee in panic.
The sky seed to have been torn apart, with the Sun descending!
The snow of Gangrenboqi Peak lted, like the Sun’s rings layering and expanding in the atmosphere.
The snow under Huai Yin’s feet cracked, golden patterns ran through the entire snowy field, and the snow leopard had long since fled recklessly, sensing the arrival of so suprely fierce being.
He looked up, and in his turbid pupils lay a majestic blue Qilin.
"It really has co."
Even Jiang Yanli, who had experienced life and death, felt the overwhelming pressure: "It is said, Phoenix Perching in the Parasol Tree, Candle Light Divine Tree, and the Supre of the Vermilion Bird Clan... indeed a fitting match."
Faintly, the call of a bird was heard.
With vermillion flas lting the snow peak, a man wearing the Vermilion Bird Mask walked out from the light, clearly taking only one step, yet it seed as if he walked from Heaven to Earth, his wings obscuring the sun.
