My Enemy Became My Cultivation Companion

That is a secret that ordinary disciples cannot reach.

Waves rise and fall on Heart Lake, ripples endless until after a long while, like the first light of dawn. Zhao Tong took a deep breath and sighed, "Back then, when the Heavenly Masters of our sect first entered the Dragon and Tiger Mountain, they saw that all the ghosts and spirits here wreaked havoc on the world, disturbing the people, slaughtering animals. The populace suffered yet were not granted protection; on the contrary, they suffered misfortunes, with countless people meeting tragic, untimely deaths. It was for this reason that the Heavenly Masters of our sect were ordered to open the mountain, cut down the mountain and destroy temples, sweep away demons and monsters, eliminate the old air of the Six Heavens, and wipe them out..."

Before the words were finished, a cold female voice interrupted, "It seems they were not swept away cleanly, nor cut down completely."

Zhao Tong's expression remained unchanged, but his eyes flickered slightly, and he fell silent for a moment.

That's just her temperament… even if no one noticed, Chen Yi shrugged to himself.

But he wasn't really unnoticed, as the small gesture fell into Yin Weiyin's eyes.

She suddenly turned her eyes, startled, another new Immortal Lady?

She clearly warned him not to be bewitched by the Immortal Lady!

Yin Weiyin gritted her teeth in hatred, but with the previous experience, she subconsciously reconsidered, wondering if she was being too sensitive. Perhaps it was just a normal acquaintance, a mere friend...

Besides, this Immortal Lady was indeed cold, but quite ordinary, lacking remarkable beauty.

Everyone's eyes converged on Zhao Tong, who shook his head slightly, sighed deeply, and revealed the truth:

"The renunciants do not speak false words, and indeed, Fellow Daoist Qingyuan's words are not false. Even though the Heavenly Masters of successive generations have skills that reach the heavens, the ghosts and spirits here were long entrenched, unable to be completely cut down or swept away. Therefore, those stubborn residual spirits could only be suppressed together with the Evil-Slaying Sword within this tower, using the sword to suppress these myriad residual spirits.

Among these ghosts and spirits, there are those who are kind-hearted; however, their path is different and does not join ours. Despite repeated persuasion and teaching, they refuse to obey, and thus we could only suppress them together here, hence the deep-seated resentment.

I didn't expect that after so long, they still haven't been eradicated and refined."

Upon hearing these words, everyone's eyes grew heavy, and they looked at each other in dismay.

Chen Yi raised an eyebrow; this indicates that his previous instinct was correct, that the quest for the sword on Dragon and Tiger Mountain was indeed not just to deal with the White Lotus Sect, but for another plot.

It might even be that the deity behind the White Lotus Sect is one of the residual spirits that escaped from this White Tower...

Just as he was thinking this, Chen Yi's heart was violently shaken.

The Ancestor God in Heart Lake, which had somewhat calmed, suddenly became frenzied and restless, violently surging outward, emitting a heart-wrenching wail!

"But the records say that when cutting down mountains and destroying temples, they were all evil ghosts and depraved deities..." a young Taoist seemed to be in disbelief.

Before the words were finished, Zhao Tong seemed to sense something, and shouted harshly, "Shut up!"

The stone chamber suddenly fell into an eerie silence; all the Taoists' feet lightly swayed, initially like an illusion, then growing increasingly intense, making it seem as if the entire world was overturning, with cracks tearing open on the ground!

"Why, why is it moving?"

"Is it the earth dragon turning over?!"

"No, something is coming out!"

Amid the Taoists' frantic confusion, Zhao Tong roared, "Form the array! Sweep the old air of the Six Heavens!"

Chen Yi maintained a stern demeanor, sensing that something here had been provoked, faintly perceiving one by one the "dead" staggering from the ground, pouring their burning resentment onto these Taoists of Dragon and Tiger Mountain, intent on tearing them bone from flesh, flaying skin, grinding bones to ash, burying them deeper inside this tower, with blood soaking deeper!

Dragon and Tiger Mountain's campaign to cut down mountains and destroy temples has now lasted nearly two thousand years...

Is the grudge of nine generations still repayable?

Even the grudge of ten generations can be avenged!
