Eternal Tale

Boom!

The sky trembled as one Three-Eyed Clan powerhouse after another stepped through the air, led by an elder—Di Si.

Their figures weren’t towering but rather modest, showing respect to Chen Xun and Black Bull with every move.

”Great Elder, this person...”

”Did you hear what Fellow Daoist Chen Xun said?”

”Of course, we will handle it ourselves.”

”This person will be imprisoned for a thousand years, subjected to punishment, stripped of his law power, but must not be killed. That will suffice.”

A glint flashed in Di Si’s eyes as he looked to his side. ”Understood?”

Everyone nodded slightly, understanding.

Di Si turned his head, a slight smile on his face, and instantly appeared on the ground not far from Chen Xun. ”Fellow Daoist Chen Xun, Fellow Daoist Ximen, I am Di Si, the Great Elder of the Di lineage.””Greetings, Great Elder.”

”Moo moo~~!”

Chen Xun and Black Bull also smiled, finding the Three-Eyed Ancient Immortal Clan increasingly pleasing to the eye.

”Bull... look at the Three-Eyed Ancient Immortal Clan, with an extra eye, they indeed have a deeper understanding of the world’s truths.”

Chen Xun secretly transmitted a rare compliment, ”So the rumors are unreliable; you have to see for yourself.”

”Moo moo!” Black Bull also secretly responded, maintaining absolute affirmation and praise for the Three-Eyed Ancient Immortal Clan.

Di Si took a few more steps forward and said, ”Fellow Daoists, shall we enter the hall for a chat?”

”Of course, please, Great Elder!”

Chen Xun relaxed, showing great respect and trust towards the Three-Eyed Ancient Immortal Clan, and glanced at Black Bull. ”Bull, let’s go.”

”Moo moo!”

Black Bull squinted its eyes, understanding immediately. The good fruits were already prepared, and the entire stock was brought out!

The Three-Eyed powerhouses behind Di Si nodded to Chen Xun and Black Bull, though still somewhat wary. This man and bull were powerful and mysterious, quite dangerous.

Although Lu Li was a Tribulation Crossing Venerable, he was calmly escorted away. A thousand years of imprisonment was something he could endure, as long as he lived, there was hope.

As he was taken away, he gave Chen Xun and Black Bull a deep look but said nothing more.

Di Si led Chen Xun and the others to another region.

In the ancient domain, at a central shrine.

The interior was grand and magnificent, with every inch of material being ancient, capable of bearing great fortune, leaving Chen Xun and Black Bull dazzled.

Di Si sat at the main seat, unhurried, waiting for them to admire.

After a stick of incense.

Chen Xun and Black Bull sat at the side, the seats quite spacious, made of Destruction Stone, a level above the Destruction Artifact of the boundary era, making them take a closer look.

”Fellow Daoist Chen Xun, Fellow Daoist Ximen.”

Di Si smiled, his face somewhat aged but still imposing.

Especially that third eye, like a gift from heaven to this clan, not at all eerie but rather sacred.

Chen Xun’s expression turned solemn, standing up instantly, looking at the surrounding Three-Eyed Ancient Immortal Clan powerhouses. ”We came today, first to retrieve our sect’s disciples, and second to thank the Three-Eyed Ancient Immortal Clan for their great kindness!”

”Thank you all for your rescue! Thank you!”

”Moo moo! Moo moo moo!!”

Black Bull’s expression also became extremely solemn, bowing its head to the crowd.

This scene made many Three-Eyed Ancient Immortal Clan powerhouses’ eyelids twitch slightly, and a few couldn’t help but gasp. These two made quite the grand entrance.

Yet they turned out to be so well-versed in immortal etiquette, making many powerhouses furrow their brows slightly, holding these boundary openers in higher regard, considering them unique.

Boundary powerhouses generally held a grudge against the Three-Eyed Ancient Immortal Clan, as did the Nine Heavens Immortal Alliance, and especially the openers.

Di Si also stood up at this moment, solemnly saying, ”Fellow Daoists, your sect and those mortal beings were saved by Di Tian’s ancestor, unrelated to us, not deserving of such gratitude.”

”Are they the beings sealed in the boundary?!”

Chen Xun looked up, a gleam in his eyes. ”Where is this person now? Bull and I must thank them properly.”

”Hehe, they are on their way back now.”

Di Si spoke frankly, not hiding anything. ”Our clan merely provided them with some space to survive, but their cultivation is too weak, only able to live on the outskirts of the forbidden area, not intentionally.”

”Of course, of course!” Chen Xun’s expression was somewhat excited. ”Although our sect’s disciples were saved by the ancestor of the Heavenly Emperor... no, Fellow Daoist Di Tian, without the Three-Eyed Ancient Immortal Clan’s assistance, how could they have survived until now!”

”Moo moo!!” Black Bull nudged Chen Xun hard, though it liked the name Di Tian, it still felt Heavenly Emperor sounded better!

Moreover, though they hadn’t read much, they understood enough to know that saving so many beings couldn’t be decided by one person alone. The Three-Eyed Ancient Immortal Clan was truly too modest.

Di Si’s pupils trembled, the title of Heavenly Emperor couldn’t be used lightly. He was about to respond when a loud shout shook the entire shrine.

”Bull!”

”Moo!”

”Bring out a box of the best fruits! Though we don’t have much, let’s not be stingy!”

Chen Xun shouted in a low voice, ”The Three-Eyed Ancient Immortal Clan saved so many of our beings, never stingy, spending so much divine soul of the forbidden area to seal life, were they ever stingy?”

”Moo~~~” Black Bull let out a long cry, also getting excited, its divine sense diving into the storage ring.

Di Si and the other Three-Eyed powerhouses’ eyes widened slightly, their necks subtly stretching a bit. Why did those words sound so pleasing... what are these good fruits...

Boom!

A giant Crane Spirit Tree box suddenly appeared on the ground, made from a fifty-thousand-year-old Crane Spirit Tree, in its prime, crafted by Chen Xun’s mortal skills!

Chen Xun and Black Bull had studied the Crane Spirit Tree for many years, concluding that the fifty-thousand-year-old Crane Spirit Tree was the strongest, the best choice for materials, a testament to their absolute sincerity!

Chen Xun smiled, explaining to the front, ”This is the Taiwei Purple Immortal Fruit, one can extend life by three thousand years! Up to five can be consumed, extending life by fifteen thousand years!”

”There are a thousand in this box, as a token of our gratitude to the Three-Eyed Ancient Immortal Clan!”

”Moo moo!!”

”Ah?!”

Di Si’s expression finally faltered, instinctively exclaiming, the long-lost Taiwei Purple Immortal Fruit! It was indeed it!

His expression also became excited, his face changing wonderfully, somewhat unable to react...

The Three-Eyed Ancient Immortal Clan powerhouses’ pupils also contracted, their fists subtly clenching... their expressions varied.

Chen Xun frowned, looking at the powerhouses’ expressions, they seemed somewhat dissatisfied.

”Bull!”

”Moo!”

”Bring another box, the Three-Eyed Ancient Immortal Clan is in the midst of a great battle, we were too stingy with just one box, aren’t we underestimating the great Three-Eyed Clan!”

”Moo moo~~~”

Black Bull’s eyes shone with wisdom, realizing the oversight!

Boom~

Another loud noise echoed in the shrine, another fifty-thousand-year Crane Spirit Tree box appeared, carved with a Flaming Red Ancient Lion, lifelike, casually carved by Chen Xun.

”Ah?!” Di Si’s fingers trembled, his three eyes wide open, what a shocking gesture... he even forgot to speak.

”Hehe, it seems you still don’t believe.”

Chen Xun’s gaze swept over the powerhouses, he smiled calmly, placing a hand on Black Bull. ”Bull and I have traveled the world of immortals for many years, understanding one thing, repay kindness a hundredfold, Bull!”

”Moo moo~~!”

”Damn it, bring another box of good fruits, let’s properly replenish the Three-Eyed Ancient Immortal Clan’s lifespan!”

”Moo moo!!”

Boom!

The shrine echoed with loud noises, finally, after half an hour, a great battle broke out...

”Fellow Daoist Chen Xun, Fellow Daoist Ximen, enough, enough!!”

”Enough!! Enough!!”

”Fellow Daoist Chen Xun, Fellow Daoist Ximen, we believe, we truly believe, thank you both for your generous gifts!!!”

”Someone, prepare a feast! Bring out our clan’s treasures!!”

...

The shrine was filled with constant shouts, many Three-Eyed powerhouses acted together, almost embracing Chen Xun and Black Bull.

Their eyes were slightly red, these two were like fathers descending to the world!

Di Si was the most excited, his aged shout the loudest, lacking the demeanor of a Great Elder, like a common old man carrying Chen Xun.

If they gave more, the Boundless Myriad Clans would come to snatch it!

”Hahaha...”

Suddenly, laughter erupted in the shrine, harmonious and joyful, all the powerhouses no longer wary, surrounding Chen Xun and Black Bull, speaking freely.

Chen Xun took a deep breath, cupping his hands with a hearty laugh, ”Fellow Daoists, let’s eat first, let’s eat first.”
