Reverse War Surpass Immortal

"If it were someone else, Duan Gujin would absolutely not believe them.

But what stood in front of him now was Lie Lei Deputy Sect Master, who died tragically protecting the disciples of Green Cloud Sect under the siege of the Netherworld Sect, Duan Gujin fully believed him.

The next day, Duan Gujin met Zhu Ge Hongyun.

Upon seeing Zhu Ge Hongyun, Duan Gujin inhaled a breath of cold air.

He knew that without Zhu Ge Hongyun's Green Cloud Sect in his previous life, there would be no rise of Duan Gujin later on.

"Young man, let's skip the formalities, let's speak directly and simply, you must answer honestly! If you have difficulties and cannot answer my questions, just say so directly, I do not want to guess back and forth!"

Zhu Ge Hongyun said earnestly.

"Sect Master, please rest assured, whatever I can tell to the Sect Master, I will not withhold anything. What I cannot tell the Sect Master, I will share whatever I can with you!"

Duan Gujin responded.

"Good! Then please tell me about your Master, I want to know what kind of achievements he has made on other continents?"

Zhu Ge Hongyun's eyes were filled with expectation.

Duan Gujin's eyes flashed, saying: "My Master's name is taboo, I cannot say it, his highest cultivation is the Breakthrough Realm! The so-called Breakthrough, is being on the verge of touching the Heavenly Dao! In his plane, my Master is among the top hundred powerhouses!"

Hearing Duan Gujin's words, Zhu Ge Hongyun's eyes lit up.

Seeing Zhu Ge Hongyun's eyes shine like a child's, Duan Gujin suddenly felt speechless.

With a quick thought, he understood why it was so.

The martial artists of Qiankun Continent are limited by the Rule Power here, they can't cultivate to the ultimate.

If they want to cultivate to a higher realm, they can only be in a plane where the Rule Power is more complete.

Only by entering a plane where the Rule Power is more complete, can they have the opportunity to cultivate to higher realms.

For Zhu Ge Hongyun, having cultivated for many years, his greatest wish is to break through the realms of Qiankun Continent, but he has failed for many years.

Thus, he quickly asked a question that had troubled him for a long time.

"Duan Gujin, do you know if the plane of Qiankun Continent can allow martial artists to break through to higher realms?"

"Cannot! The martial artists of the Qiankun Continent, if they want to break through to higher realms, must go to other planes! The Rule Power of Qiankun Continent is incomplete, lacking the Rule Power that lets the martial artists here break through to higher realms! Without that kind of Rule Power, the martial artists here are doomed!"

"So that's how it is!"

Hearing Duan Gujin's words, Zhu Ge Hongyun suddenly felt deflated.

Looking at Zhu Ge Hongyun, Duan Gujin's eyes twinkled, he originally wanted to tell Zhu Ge Hongyun he could take him to other continents.

But if Zhu Ge Hongyun left, then the enemies of the Green Cloud Sect would be even more unbridled.

Unless he could, together with Zhu Ge Hongyun and others, completely eliminate the forces that would destroy the Green Cloud Sect in the future, only then could they leave Qiankun Continent with peace of mind.

Otherwise, it would be best for Zhu Ge Hongyun to stay in Qiankun Continent to protect the Green Cloud Sect.

"Disciple dares to ask the Sect Master, what is your current cultivation level?"

Duan Gujin's eyes flashed and he thought of a plan, he wanted to encourage Zhu Ge Hongyun to cultivate diligently.

"Martial Sect Ninth Layer!"

Zhu Ge Hongyun answered.

"Please demonstrate all your strength, Sect Master!"

"Alright!"

Zhu Ge Hongyun walked out from his chair, immediately releasing all his Primordial Power.

"Green nine thousand Heavenly Dragon Martial Souls!"

Duan Gujin exhaled a breath of turbid air, he didn't expect that Green Cloud Sect's Sect Master Zhu Ge Hongyun had actually cultivated to nine thousand Heavenly Dragon Martial Souls, and also opened the fourth Martial Meridian.

"Really did not expect, the previous life's Zhu Ge Hongyun was so powerful, yet he ultimately failed to prevent the destruction of Green Cloud Sect, how did the people of the Netherworld Sect do it?"

Duan Gujin's mind raced, he originally thought Zhu Ge Hongyun's cultivation was possibly between the Sixth and Seventh Level of Martial Arts, but he didn't expect Zhu Ge Hongyun's power to actually be at the Martial Arts Ninth Layer.

"That means Zhu Ge Hongyun's strength is the strongest in the Qiankun Continent, then why couldn't he prevent the destruction of the Green Cloud Sect?"

Duan Gujin's mind raced and he inhaled a gasp of cold air, he originally thought that the strength of the Green Cloud Sect's Sect Master was slightly inferior compared to other sects, but he didn't expect that Zhu Ge Hongyun's strength was already the first in Qiankun Continent.

In his previous life, Zhu Ge Hongyun had a fierce fight with the people of the Netherworld Sect, and at that time, Duan Gujin was too weak and could only focus on escaping for his life, he couldn't have watched the battle between Zhu Ge Hongyun and the experts of the Netherworld Sect.

Thus, he didn't know how exactly Zhu Ge Hongyun died.

"I previously saw Han Zhanyi of the Netherworld Sect, his strength did not seem that strong! Even if the Netherworld Sect joined forces with other sects' experts to move against Green Cloud Sect, Zhu Ge Hongyun and the experts of Green Cloud Sect shouldn't have been unable to hold off!

What exactly happened to the Green Cloud Sect back then?"

Duan Gujin took a deep breath, he now knew there were many details of the destruction of Green Cloud Sect he did not know.

"I need to unravel this mystery!"

Duan Gujin's eyes suddenly shone, a determined look flashing through his gaze.

Zhu Ge Hongyun did not know what was going through Duan Gujin's mind. When he released all his Primordial Power, he was secretly observing the changes in Duan Gujin's expression.

He noticed that Duan Gujin did not appear very shocked, which immediately made him realize what this meant.

"It seems that Duan Gujin has indeed encountered masters stronger than me in his past!"

Had it been someone else, witnessing the level of power he now displayed would surely shock them, but Duan Gujin did not react as such; instead, his expression filled with oddity.

Zhu Ge Hongyun sensed what Duan Gujin might be thinking.

"He must be wondering why, despite my current realm, I have still not managed to break through to a higher realm."

Duan Gujin's eyes flickered a few times, and he then asked Zhu Ge Hongyun.

"May I ask Sect Master Zhuge, who wields the greatest strength in the Qiankun Continent?"

"I do!"

"And besides you, who else possesses the greatest strength?"

"Netherworld Sect Master Han Zhanyi!"

"What is his realm of cultivation?"

"Martial Sect Seventh Level!"

"And who has the greatest strength before him?"

"His subordinate, Dong Tianheng!"

After a series of questions, Duan Gujin frowned and thought for a while, then felt that the previous destruction of the Green Cloud Sect was very likely a conspiracy by the Netherworld Sect.

"Right, Sect Master, compared to your sect, which sect is more powerful?"

Duan Gujin asked.

"Our overall strength is superior!"

The information Duan Gujin was inquiring about was not a secret, so Zhu Ge Hongyun did not hide the truth from Duan Gujin.

"Why are you so concerned about the Netherworld Sect?"

Zhu Ge Hongyun suddenly grew interested.

Duan Gujin said, "My master mentioned that he discovered the Netherworld Sect's Sect Master Han Zhanyi and Deputy Sect Master Dong Tianheng are involved in an internal strife, seemingly over a treasure that led to their conflict."

Hearing Duan Gujin's words, Zhu Ge Hongyun's heart was filled with doubt. He couldn't fathom how Duan Gujin's master came into possession of such information.

"Yes, yes, I've heard that too!"

Zhu Ge Hongyun then thought that Duan Gujin's master might have already established a very powerful force in the Qiankun Continent.

"If Duan Gujin's master really intends to dominate the Qiankun Continent, then no one here could stop him!"

Zhu Ge Hongyun immediately worried that Duan Gujin's master might cause a devastating conflict in the Zheng Qiankun Continent, so he cautiously asked, "Duan Gujin, does your master have any plans in the Qiankun Continent?"

Duan Gujin immediately understood the implication behind Zhu Ge Hongyun's question and hurriedly explained, "My master has no intentions toward the Qiankun Continent; he only wishes to return to other continents as soon as possible, he has no attachments here!"

"That's good!"

Relieved by Duan Gujin's words, Zhu Ge Hongyun sighed.

"Then what level of Alchemist is your master?"

"King of Pills! My master instructed me to only reveal that he is a King of Pills, and forbade me from disclosing more! Some people who know of my master can identify him just by knowing his level, I really can't say more."

"I understand, I absolutely won't pressure you to speak!"

They exchanged questions for a while, and through this, they both learned more about the true situation and gained a certain level of trust in each other.

Returning to his own residence, Duan Gujin carefully pondered the words of Zhu Ge Hongyun, sorting through all the information he had gathered, and finally reached a conclusion.

"I can now be certain that the destruction of the Green Cloud Sect in my previous life had many hidden elements that I was unaware of. The Green Cloud Sect's current strength is still extremely formidable. If the Netherworld Sect didn't employ any schemes, it would almost be impossible to defeat the Green Cloud Sect purely based on strength! There's only one explanation; the Netherworld Sect must have plotted something!"

He meticulously recalled the information he had gathered after the demise of the Green Cloud Sect in his previous life, immediately feeling that the downfall of the Green Cloud Sect was shrouded in deep mystery.

Meanwhile, Zhu Ge Hongyun, having talked with Duan Gujin, consulted Lie Lei. After analyzing the information previously provided by Duan Gujin, they agreed that Duan Gujin's master likely posed no threat to the Qiankun Continent.

"It's just uncertain whether Duan Gujin's master can lead us to other continents," Lie Lei remarked.

"That's hard to say, but Duan Gujin mentioned that once you enter another continent, returning to the Qiankun Continent becomes extremely difficult!" Zhu Ge Hongyun said.

"Oh!"

Lie Lei's eyes flickered, realizing that if he were allowed to enter the Qiankun Continent but the cost was giving up everything he currently possessed in the Qiankun Continent and starting over in another continent, he definitely would not agree.

"I think we elders are better off staying in the Qiankun Continent. If we were hundreds of years younger, I might consider leaving here, but I'm too old now to start afresh in another continent—that's impossible!" Lie Lei said.

"Right! You're absolutely correct!"
