Chapter 762: Heaven and Earth Reestablish Order

After Xu Bai carefully understood the cause of the incident, he did not think about how to suppress the heated public opinion.

Instead, his original body, thousands of miles away, directly looked at his [Return to the True] panel.

The upper limit of physiological age has not been reduced.

But Xu Bai did not think that Peng Qing's words were nonsense.

The Heavenly Venerable Wangsheng first attained enlightenment in the white mist.

As we all know, the white mist is called "Eating Yuan White Mist" and can devour the life span of cultivators.

Peng Qing suddenly died, and his tragic condition before death was almost the same as that of the cultivator who died in the white mist.

All these things cannot be explained by the word coincidence.

However, in order to prevent the situation from escalating, Xu Bai first silenced all the witnesses of the day through coercion and inducement.

Then he sent cultivators to spread all kinds of more bizarre and shocking remarks.

For example: A cultivator in a certain place died as miserably as Peng Qing. At the same time, he shouted: "The one who destroyed the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance is the Heavenly Lord who spread the law."

For example, Peng Qing is not Peng Qing. The real Peng Qing had died many years ago. The one who died in front of everyone that day was the clone created by the cultivator named [Thousand Faces Demon Lord] of the Five Elders Association. He had ulterior motives and wanted to create chaos in the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance.

...

For a time, there were many different opinions, and it was difficult to distinguish the truth from the false.

Gradually, although the heat of the matter did not diminish. However, not many people cared about the real crazy remarks made by Peng Qing before his death.

In this way, more than ten days passed.

The Peng Qing incident was gradually forgotten by everyone. Fewer and fewer people discussed it. In the end, public opinion was completely calmed down.

It was as if this incident had never happened in the world.

Xu Bai was lucky to fulfill his mission, and Nangong Shirong was also very satisfied.

It was rare for him to be generous and rewarded a lot of merits and contributions.

He also gave Xu Bai a statue.

"This is..." Xu Bai held the statue in his palm, and a mysterious feeling came to him.

It was like holding another body of his own.

"This is the [Decree of Rebirth]." Nangong Shirong introduced with a smug look on his face.

"Not long ago, I was rewarded with three statues. One was kept for myself as a backup, and it was useless to carry the extra one with me. This time you have made great contributions, so I will just give it to you."

"With this thing, even if you die, you can reincarnate and revive immediately."

Xu Bai's face was full of joy: "Thank you for your kindness!"

Since the establishment of the Rebirth Palace, Xu Bai, as a state liaison envoy, has not found out how to obtain the many treasures in the Rebirth Palace.

Although it was announced to the world at the beginning, it was said that as long as the contribution was made, everyone could obtain it.

But the gates of the Rebirth Palaces in various states were closed.

Not to mention ordinary cultivators, even Xu Bai could not enter at all.

Not to mention exchanging various materials in the Rebirth Palace.

Although there are many dissatisfactions among the cultivators in the world, the Rebirth Palace is not controlled by the states.

He dismissed the questioning on the grounds that the treasures were not ready.

Putting away the [Decree of Rebirth] solemnly, Xu Bai suddenly asked before leaving: "Lord Nangong, before Peng Qing died, he said that a thief had shortened his lifespan..."

"Is it true?" Xu Bai lowered his voice.

"If it is true, then it can only be suppressed for a while, not for a lifetime."

Nangong Shirong was silent for a moment, and shook his head slightly: "Since everyone can be resurrected, lifespan is not that important."

"For us, achieving immortality is simply an unattainable fantasy. In this case, why bother about so much?"

Nangong Shirong paused, and changed the subject: "However, not all cultivators in the world can be as open-minded as me. Sooner or later, someone in various places will notice this matter. It can't be suppressed."

"What we have to do is to resolutely prevent this matter from breaking out in our Tianliang Province."

Nangong Shirong said coldly.

His words were no different from confirming the truth of Peng Qing's words before his death.

Xu Bai remained silent and nodded heavily.

On the way to leave, Xu Bai's mind was full of thoughts: "Reducing his lifespan..."

"Is it the necessary means for the Heavenly Venerable Wangsheng to complete the resurrection of the true spirit of the cultivator by not completely going against the principles."

"Or..."

"Intentionally imitating Ruo Mu in ancient times?"

This Heavenly Venerable Wangsheng, from revealing his traces to officially going against the principles.

All revealed a bit of weirdness.

"Tianxuan Mirror replaced the sky."

"The Heavenly Venerable Wangsheng, replaced Ruo Mu."

...

Xu Bai suddenly thought of something, and his steps and body suddenly froze.

Like the previous Purple Sky Venerable, he looked up into the sky imperceptibly.

Then he quickly lowered his head without leaving a trace and hurried away.

——

Tianquan Prefecture, Shuo Feng's courtyard.

"Brother Li?"

Shuo Feng's somewhat surprised voice came.

In the competition between the two just now, Shuo Feng was having a great time.

Li Fan was suddenly stunned. The attack that he could have easily dodged hit him directly.

The mighty sword energy was raging, and Li Fan's lower body was directly cut into nothingness.

Fortunately, it is now the era of the new law.

This minor injury is not a big deal for a Yuanying cultivator.

In just a breath, Li Fan's body quickly recovered in the slight roar of the cave.

Li Fan looked apologetic: "I just mastered this life-slashing magical power not long ago. I have been fighting with you, Brother Shuo, for several days, and I have become a little distracted."

Shuo Feng suddenly realized: "I was negligent. I was excited for a while, but I forgot that this top-level magical power must be extremely consuming."

"Hahaha, it's all my fault for being too excited. I haven't encountered such a miraculous method for a long time."

"It can even affect my control of the sword..." Shuo Feng praised.

"Brother Li, take a break."

As he spoke, the sword flashed, and Shuo Feng cut off a few strands of white hair on his head.

Then he shouted loudly, and his whole body was like a snake shedding its skin.

He peeled off the body that looked a little old and dilapidated like "taking off clothes".

Shuo Feng, who had regained his youth and strength, flicked his fingers and turned the old body into ashes.

He sighed: "Daoyou's [Drawing Silk to Cut Life] magical power is really extraordinary. In terms of actual combat effect, it is the only one I have ever seen in my life."

"If it weren't for my special physique, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to fight you so recklessly."

"If an ordinary cultivator is hit by your magical power, it's probably not half a day before he dies."

Li Fan pretended to be exhausted and waved his hand: "Don't mention it. Although I worked hard to create it, it's a pity that it can't keep up with the changes of the times."

"Now the Rebirth Palace stands in the sky, and everyone can be resurrected. My magical power is strong, but the deterrent power is several times weaker. Anyway, everyone can be resurrected, so what if the body is broken?" Li Fan sighed.

Shuo Feng shook his head: "Brother Li, don't be so modest. Resurrection..."

"Humph."

"A truly powerful person in the world would definitely not care about your magical power. With this move alone, you have already surpassed countless self-proclaimed heroes in the world."

"Well, it's time to improve your treatment. It's a bit unfair to you to be just a junior worshiper."

Shuo Feng touched his chin and said slowly.
