Terran Guardian - Chapter 4117

Chapter 4092: A Narrow Gap

“A reclusive supreme being!”

“The Seven Profound Dao Sect is truly unfathomable!”

Inside the Six Desires Immortal Sect, Liu Xunhuan’s expression was solemn, his sense of crisis growing stronger.

From the battle in the Cloud Sea Mountains, he had a vague premonition that the Yaotai Holy Land had little chance of winning.

Therefore,

since then,

Liu Xunhuan had remained hidden within the Six Desires Immortal Sect, observing the situation.

If the Yaotai Holy Land won, he would have sufficient reason to claim that the Six Desires Immortal Sect had suffered heavy losses in the battle of the Cloud Sea Mountains and had no strength left to intervene.

After all, with the five major forces destroyed, whether the Six Desires Immortal Sect intervened or not was entirely up to him.

In the end,

the Six Desires Immortal Sect had not suffered no losses at all.

The deaths of many disciples were enough to justify the situation.

Later, when news of the Yaotai Holy Land’s crushing defeat arrived, Liu Xunhuan secretly rejoiced.

At that moment,

he no longer intended to be an enemy of the Seven Profound Dao Sect.

However…

On the surface, the Six Desires Immortal Sect is affiliated with the Taiyi Immortal Sect. If it were to directly side with the Seven Profound Dao Sect, the Taiyi Immortal Sect would

undoubtedly be enraged. The Six Desires Immortal Sect could not withstand the wrath of such an unparalleled power.

But now—

first, a Great Sage appeared in the Taiyi Immortal Sect, and then news spread that the Seven Profound Dao Sect had a reclusive supreme being.

Liu Xunhuan understood that his time was running out.

The Taiyi Immortal Sect had suffered such a great loss and would certainly not let it go; similarly, the Seven Profound Dao Sect would likely not give up either.

More importantly,

the Jiang family stood behind the Seven Profound Dao Sect.

The Six Desires Immortal Sect was caught in the middle; one wrong move and it would be utterly destroyed.

Thinking of this,

Liu Xunhuan flipped his hand, and nine copper coins appeared in his palm.

Pei Chenshan, standing beside him, also became solemn upon seeing this.

At this moment…

Liu Xunhuan closed his eyes, as if silently deducing something. After a moment, he flicked his hand, and nine copper coins, seemingly imbued with life, landed on the stone table before him, forming a straight line.

The instant Liu Xunhuan’s gaze fell upon the stone table, he felt as if struck by lightning. He let out a muffled groan, and a slight sweat appeared at the corner of his mouth, his once black hair

now streaked with gray. But after a moment, these gray streaks returned to black.

The difference was that, along with them, a faint black aura swirled around Liu Xunhuan, emanating an eerie and ominous presence.

“Sect Master, what is the divination result?”

Pei Chenshan asked anxiously.

Liu Xunhuan remained silent for a long time before uttering a single word: “Death!”

This single word

caused Pei Chenshan’s body to tremble, and his face paled slightly.

Pei Chenshan was naturally aware of the Sect Master’s methods of divination.

Although Liu Xunhuan rarely used such methods, each divination was remarkably accurate.

The divination he received so far was a death omen, which naturally alarmed Pei Chenshan.

Liu Xunhuan said, “I originally intended to divine the fate of the Taiyi Immortal Sect, but such a supreme power is ultimately beyond my comprehension.

Therefore, I divined the sect’s future, what would happen if they remained inactive.

But now it seems that if the sect remains inactive, it will face certain death!”

A bitter expression appeared on Liu Xunhuan’s face as he spoke.

He didn’t doubt the validity of his divination.

The divine power he used was called “A Line of Heaven,” a legacy of a supreme expert from the ancient times.

The so-called “line”

refers to finding a glimmer of hope amidst the mysteries of heaven.

Since cultivating this divine power, Liu Xunhuan’s sixth sense had become exceptionally sharp, often allowing him to escape danger.

However, the sixth sense isn’t always useful.

Especially when disaster strikes, the mysteries of heaven are confused, making the sixth sense even more vulnerable.

Therefore,

only by personally using divine power to divine can one find that glimmer of hope.

However—

such supernatural abilities to glimpse the secrets of heaven come at a heavy price.

Not only does it shorten one’s lifespan, but it also weakens a cultivator’s fortune.

For a half-saint, the former is naturally insignificant; after all, half-saints are immortal, so the loss of lifespan is a negligible side effect.

But fortune is different.

Once one’s fortune is severely diminished and entangled in misfortune, there is always the possibility of death.

For this reason, Liu Xunhuan rarely uses such supernatural abilities.

After all, once fortune is damaged, it is not so easy to recover.

But in the current situation, Liu Xunhuan has no choice but to use methods to find a glimmer of hope. Hearing Liu Xunhuan’s words, Pei Chenshan’s expression

turned solemn: “If it’s a death omens, does the sect leader have a way to break the deadlock?” Liu Xunhuan pointed to the divination hexagram before him and said in a deep voice, “Life and death are intertwined; the path to survival naturally lies within this hexagram of death. If we remain inactive, we will face certain death. Conversely, if we take action, we may find a glimmer of hope.” “What does the Sect Master mean?” “The Seven Profound Dao Sect!” Liu Xunhuan said, each word distinct, his expression resolute, his eyes unwavering. “That glimmer of hope lies with the Seven Profound Dao Sect. Right now, it seems our only chance to escape the annihilation of our sect is to pledge allegiance to them.” “However, nothing is absolute. Whether pledging allegiance to the Seven Profound Dao Sect will truly secure that glimmer of hope, I cannot guarantee. But it is certainly better than waiting to die!” Even the most powerful supernatural abilities cannot be perfectly foreseen. The future is constantly changing. Liu Xunhuan knew very well that the future he had divined was only one of countless possibilities. But regardless, now that he knew where the path to death lay, he was determined to gamble on a path to survival.

Otherwise, the Six Desires Immortal Sect couldn’t just sit and wait to die.

Pei Chenshan understood this as well, and then took a deep breath: “Sect Master is absolutely right!”

“Alright, I will handle this matter properly. Don’t spread the word about the divination. For the next period of time, you will be in charge of the sect’s affairs. I need to personally go to Taiyuan Prefecture!”

Liu Xunhuan didn’t dare to delay, and after giving Pei Chenshan some instructions, he set off for Taiyuan Prefecture. A

death divination was before him!

No one could be sure when such a death divination would come true.

Therefore,

Liu Xunhuan needed to find that glimmer of hope as quickly as possible.

In less than half a day,

Liu Xunhuan had already entered Taiyuan Prefecture, arrived at the Seven Profound Dao Sect, and stated that he wanted to see Shen Changqing.

The disciple in charge of guarding the mountain gate, upon learning of the other party’s identity, did not dare to neglect him and immediately sent a message back.

A moment later.

The disciple said, “The sect master is in the Cangwu Hall. Please come with me!”

“Thank you for your trouble!”

Although the disciple before him was only at the Ancient Immortal Realm, Liu Xunhuan still had to show him some politeness because the other party came from the Seven Profound Dao Sect.

One must have the proper attitude when asking for a favor. He naturally understood

this .
