Chapter 3802: The Aural Heavens Elder
Each of the dozen or so Immortal Exalts represented a peak organisation on the Hall Brilliance Heaven. At this moment, they all still followed the Warring Old Freak.
“Transcension, I know you won’t admit it unless you’re faced with the grim reality. Take a look at this memory crystal,” the Warring Old Freak said emotionlessly as he radiated with pressure. He directly tossed a memory crystal over to the Transcension Ancestor.
The Transcenion Ancestor accepted the memory crystal and took a look. His face immediately sank. He crushed the memory crystal furiously and said in pain, “What a Space-purging. He appeared all righteous on the surface, but never did I imagine he would actually… actually… actually do something so vicious. Our sect is truly unfortunate, truly unfortunate…”
The Transcension Ancestor’s face was filled with self-blame. He acted as if he was too ashamed to stand before everyone. He clasped his fist towards them and said, “I’m truly at fault. Space-purging defied the orthodoxy, and my Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodiment was completely unaware of it. That is shameful of our sect. Please don’t worry, everyone. Our Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodiment will definitely get to the bottom of what Space-purging has done on the Hall Brilliance Heaven over the years.”
When he reached there, the Transcension Ancestor paused. He gritted his teeth as if he had made some kind of important decision and said, “And from this day onwards, Space-purging is no longer a disciple of our Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodiment. He will be eliminated from the sect register forever.”
The Flying Leaf Ancestor appeared behind the Transcension Ancestor. Listening to his words, she was filled with anguish.
“Transcension, stop playing the fool. I’ve already received precise information. The person behind the smaller organisations of the Hall Brilliance Heaven, as well as the person who ordered them to kill innocent cultivators, is you.”
“You needed them to do that to nurture the Fiend Soul Banners. You are the person forging the Fiend Soul Banners.”
The Warring Old Freak’s voice boomed thunderously, echoing through the surroundings and making the mountains shake.
“Fiend Soul Banners? What are those?”“From the name, it seems like a demonic item…”
......
…
Many disciples in the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodiment were puzzled. They had never heard about Fiend Soul Banners before. Only a few Immortal Emperor great elders who were senior enough and had been cultivating for long enough possessed the right to know some incomplete information about Fiend Soul Banners. Everyone’s faces changed drastically.
“Impossible. Senior Warring, senior brother Transcension is a man of great prestige on the Hall Brilliance Heaven. With senior brother Transcension’s status, why would he forge such a vicious demonic god artifact? After all, that is a tremendous taboo. It’s enough to doom the entire sect. Senior brother Transcension cherishes the sect more than anything, so why would he do that?” The Flying Leaf Ancestor immediately denied the accusation. She was aware that she could not let them establish a connection between the Fiend Soul Banners and the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodiment no matter what.
“You can’t just make claims like that, Warring Old Freak. You’re saying that I forged the Fiend Soul Banner, so do you have any evidence to prove it? Don’t tell me you’ve concluded this just from what you divined? Or are you trying to forcefully impose the crimes that Space-purging committed outside onto our Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodiment?” The Transcension Ancestor’s clone rebuked with composure.
It was true that the memory crystal did not contain any explicit mention of the Fiend Soul Banner. It only mentioned some heinous deeds that had been committed.
However, heinous deeds covered a wide range of actions. It did not necessarily point to forging Fiend Soul Banners.
Using this hole in the evidence, the two ancestors of the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodiment put on an aggressive defence, denying any connections to the Fiend Soul Banners. They engaged the various organisations that had come to punish them in an intense verbal battle above the sect.
In the end, the Transcension Ancestor opened all of the forbidden grounds of the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodiment to everyone again, letting these Immortal Exalts search through them freely.
Afterwards, everyone carried out a second close search of the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodiment. They were clearly even more careful this time. They used all sorts of secret techniques and abilities, but they still found nothing. They did not find any useful information.
At this moment, the Warring Old Freak stood inside the three towers where the Immortal Exalts had gathered. He glanced around and said sternly, “Out of the entire sect, the three towers are the only place where we can’t find anything. All of the traces here have been erased. We cannot recover the past.”
When he heard that, the Transcension Ancestor furrowed his brows and said unhappily, “This is where the three of us spend most of our time cultivating. It’s regularly rinsed by the laws. If you want to turn back time using secret techniques, you obviously won’t find anything.”
“After all, how can a place where an Immortal Exalt cultivates be peered into so easily?”
The Warring Old Freak smiled slightly and said, “The Fiend Soul Banner is such a powerful demonic artifact, so it must have left behind some traces. In the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodiment, this is the only place that remains unknown to us, so I believe that the three towers are the only point of vulnerability.”
“Warring Old Freak, if you insist that there are some unspeakable secrets hidden here, then go on ahead and search for it. However, let me make this clear. I’ll only give you three days. If you still haven’t found clear evidence after three days, then you better all give our Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodiment an explanation,” the Transcension Ancestor said coldly. He was completely composed.
The Flying Leaf Ancestor who stood behind him had been unsettled the entire time. She was extremely uneasy.
That was because for a very long period of time, the three of them had held all of their secret conversations within the three towers. They concealed their secret conversations with their powers each time and had erased all traces. Even if a late Immortal Exalt was present, they would not be able to find anything.
However, something could always go wrong.
In particular, the Warring Old Freak’s confidence left her feeling even more uneasy.
“Three days? No, we won’t need that long.” The Warring Old Freak smiled mysteriously. He slowly turned around and suddenly looked outside the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodiment with his sombre eyes. He clasped his fist and said firmly, “Fellow Aural Heavens, I’ll have to trouble you with everything to follow.”
With the Warring Old Freak’s strength and status, it was as clear as day just how great this person’s status was with how politely he referred to him.
The Immortal Exalts gathered within the towers all narrowed their eyes after hearing the Warring Old Freak’s words. They looked outside the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodiment with some surprise and curiosity.
An old man with white hair and eyebrows silently appeared where they were looking. His presence was perfectly concealed, so none of it leaked out.
The old man’s eyes shone brilliantly, giving off a sense of vigour. His white robes glistened with light that resembled the stars, giving off a profound presence like the manifestation of the laws.
“The Aural Heavens Elder!” The Transcension Ancestor immediately recognised the old man. His eyes narrowed slightly as he blurted out uncontrollably.
When the Immortal Exalts of the Hall Brilliance Heaven heard the Transcension Ancestor’s cry, they were surprised at first. They started trying to recall who the Aural Heavens Elder was.
But very soon, they seemed to remember something, and their faces immediately changed, becoming filled with seriousness and respect.
“The Aural Heavens Elder! It’s actually the Aural Heavens Elder! That’s a supreme expert of the Merchant Union of Star Brilliance. He spends most of his time at the headquarters of the Merchant Union of Star Brilliance on the Plain Subtlety Heaven.”
“The Aural Heavens Elder has actually come to our Hall Brilliance Heaven personally. That’s a supreme expert of the Seventh Heavenly Layer…”
......
…
The arrival of the Aural Heavens Elder immediately caused quite a stir among the Immortal Exalts of the Hall Brilliance Heaven. Many of the early Immortal Exalts looked at him in reverence.
On the Hall Brilliance Heaven, even the strongest, the Warring Old Freak, was only a Sixth Heavenly Layer Immortal Exalt. He was the undisputed greatest expert of the Hall Brilliance Heaven. Although the Warring Old Freak had already remained at his present cultivation for several million years, it was still unknown whether he could reach the Seventh Heavenly Layer of Immortal Exalt in his lifetime.
However, the Aural Heavens Elder was different. He was a true Seventh Heavenly Layer Immortal Exalt.
The Sixth Heavenly Layer belonged to mid Immortal Exalt, while the Seventh Heavenly Layer belonged to late Immortal Exalt. There was an intrinsic difference between the two.
As a result, when an expert like this suddenly appeared on the Hall Brilliance Heaven, it had an unimaginable impact on the heaven.
