The Immortality Saint could not tell what Fang Xingjian was thinking. He said directly, “I wonder if Brother Fang Xingjian has heard the recent rumors about the Divine Sun Emperor’s treasures?”
Fang Xingjian said, “I know about some. Could it be that the Immortality Saint knows the inside story?”
The Immortality Saint smiled. “It’s a long story. Is Brother Fang aware that amongst the three Saints, the Phenomenal Saint upholds the law, the Oceansky Saint takes charge of missionary work, and that I’m in charge of the historical records and the understanding toward religious doctrines?”
Fang Xingjian nodded. The three Saints were in charge of different areas. Regardless of whether it was law, missionary work, or history and religious doctrines, all three areas were extremely important and had a lot of authority involved. This was also the reason why over so many years, the three Saints had been on equal grounds, with no victor decided from between them.
“1,000 years ago, seven devils came from the Western Land and caused great bloodshed. In the end, the strongest Tulip Dynasty contacted the three strongest experts of the time—Saint Adam, the Formidable Divine King Dante, and the Pope of that time. They joined forces and sealed up the seven devils in succession.”
The Immortality Saint sighed and said, “In order to prevent the seals from being undone, the three great experts sealed up all information so that no one could locate the seven devils and undo their seals.
“However, just in case, the Pope from that time also left behind a last measure. Once there are signs that the seals are breaking, the Saint in charge of history will receive a warning.”
As he spoke, his white robe shook slightly, and streams of golden words floated out from his long robes.
The white robe worn by the Immortality Saint was no ordinary item. It was a level 35 Divine Remains Equipment called the record all of the Church of Universal Truth’s secrets and histories.
This long robe was given to the Saint who was in charge of documenting history and interpreting religious doctrines. It was said that the golden runes on the long robe recorded all of history from the time of the world’s creation.
RIght now, the words revealed by the Immortality Saint formed the history about the seven devils.
When the seven seals showed signs of weakening, the Transmigration Robes presented the history from 1,000 years ago.
“These seven people called themselves the Plenary Foundation Septet—where ‘Plenary’ refers to being all-comprehensive, and ‘Foundation’ is referring to the foundation of the great Dao. According to the records, the seven of them came from the Western Land and are likely to be the Divine Sun Emperor’s successors. Their objectives for coming to our land was to search for the Divine Sun Emperor’s treasures.”
Hearing this information, Fang Xingjian’s gaze flickered. “The Divine Sun Emperor went to the Western Land? And to think that those seven people are still alive even after 1,000 years have passed?”
“To us, the Western Land is considered a superior realm,” the Immortality Saint said. “The experts there possess a method to extend their lifespans. Therefore, when some Divine level experts feel that their lifespans are close to reaching an end, they head out in search of the Western Land.
“And it’s because these seven people have the method that allows for conversion between lifespans and strength that they are able to keep on surviving in the seals.”
“In search…?” Fang Xingjian said, “Is the Western Land very hard to find?”
The Immortality Saint smiled and looked at Fang Xingjian, saying, “You come from Earth and should know that although the way to return to your world is through the seas, your world doesn’t belong to our seas.
“It’s the same with the Western Land. If we keep on advancing toward the Western Sea, there will be an area of overlapping space and then we will be able to arrive in the Western Land. However, that area of space appears and disappears irregularly. It isn’t easy to discover.”
A hint of comprehension flashed in Fang Xingjian’s eyes, and he finally understood what the Western Land was about.
