There are always various reasons for the decline of a sect.
From ancient times to the present, no sect has ever been able to endure for a long time.
However, in Li Ye's view, there is no doubt that the Tiansheng Sect in ancient times, if not the overlord of one party, was at least far beyond the power of Xinghai Mansion, the most powerful among the eighteen regions of Xinghai today.
"Did Senior provoke an enemy that cannot be provoked?"
Li Ye could only think of this explanation to allow the whole sect to seal the small world.
After all, the small world is a place independently developed by the strong. Once sealed, unless someone is powerful enough to destroy the small world, no one can enter and harm the people inside.
In ancient times, many sects would choose to do this after encountering an invincible enemy.
As for destroying the small world, Li Ye had at least never heard of such means, or even if there were, it was far beyond his imagination.
"enemy?"
A strange look flashed across the face of the leader of the Tiansheng Sect, and then he nodded, "It can be said that our sect was traveling back then, and accidentally released a certain peerless demon due to greed."
As the leader of the Tiansheng Sect told him, Li Ye finally understood why the Tiansheng Sect became what it is today.
All because of the helpless actions of the entire Tiansheng Sect after facing a terrifying enemy that they could not defeat with all their strength.
In the end, it was beyond Li Ye's expectation.
The Tiansheng Sect sealed off the small world where the sect was located, not to be a coward, but to fight to the death!
The entire Tiansheng Sect, in order to kill that peerless demon, did not hesitate to do anything, sealed the exit of the small world, fought to the end, and finally managed to seal the demon with a result of almost total annihilation.
But this battle made it almost impossible for the Tiansheng Sect to continue to exist. At the same time, the Tiansheng Sect was unable to completely kill the devil. It could only suppress it with all the luck of the sect!
Hearing this, Li Ye couldn't help but feel slightly moved!
A sect fights to the end without hesitation! Use the sect's luck to suppress the devil! From then on, the sect disappears from the eyes of the world, and even cuts off its inheritance!
How great is this, what feelings and ambition!
Li Ye asked himself, if it were him, it would be absolutely impossible!
Maybe he could run, hide, or even try his best to kill the devil. But even if it didn't work, in his mind, it would have nothing to do with him if the sky fell and someone was standing tall.
He will not become a hero, because originally, he is just an inconspicuous little person among all living beings.
But this does not mean that Li Ye will not respect the great ideals of the Tiansheng Sect, which sacrifice themselves for the sake of the world.
At least, according to the head of the Tiansheng Sect, that peerless devil once caused almost total death and injury to countless sects in the world. The horror of it was beyond the imagination of Li Ye.
"Senior, is that devil still alive?"
With a sigh, a wry smile appeared on the face of the leader of the Tiansheng Sect, "This sect is incompetent. In the end, nine of the ten elders of the sect formed a nine-star chain of magic sealing formations to suppress it and seal it. For this reason, this sect
After consuming all their luck, the remaining disciples of the sect did not hesitate to turn into dark spirits and guard here forever, in order to prevent the devil from breaking out of the seal one day!"
That's it, Li Ye nodded.
Li Ye finally understood why the disciples of Tiansheng Sect turned into dark spirits.
"Then senior, you..."
"This sect is not a dark spirit, but it is only relying on the remaining spiritual energy of Shengyuan Temple to support itself until now."
Li Ye indeed saw that the leader of the Tiansheng Sect in front of him was not stable, and his soul was obviously at the end of his life.
"What is the last test that senior said?"
"This last test is related to the devil."
"oh?"
Li Ye was shocked.
"You don't have to be afraid. Although the demon is not dead, he has not broken out of the seal for so many years. However, the demon sealing formation back then has been too long and it is almost unbearable now. What I want you to do is,
Just strengthen the demon-sealing formation again, and at least for ten thousand years, the demon will never leave!"
At the end of the sentence, the face of the Tiansheng Sect leader also showed a determined expression!
Even though no one in the entire sect survived, even though the Tiansheng sect disappeared in the long river of history, Li Ye could only admire this great righteousness.
"Senior, please tell me! How to do it?"
"Our sect has been able to persist until now only because of the support of Shengyuan Palace, but we can no longer leave here. Once we leave, our sect will disappear in an instant. Therefore, our hope is only you."
After listening, Li Ye knew what the leader of the Tiansheng Sect wanted him to do.
It turns out that in this holy city, in addition to the Shengyuan Palace, there are four other palaces, which guard the demon sealing array in the entire holy city in the direction of the four divine beasts.
"Go to these four palaces as soon as possible and use these to place them on the demon-subduing pillars in the palaces."
The leader of the Tiansheng Sect spread his hands, and in his hands, four blood-colored crystals appeared, exuding rich spiritual power fluctuations.
Its richness far exceeds even the highest-grade holy crystal that Li Ye has ever seen, and is hundreds of times more powerful!
Obviously, these four blood-colored crystals are a more advanced spiritual stone.
"Just put it in the Demon-Suppressing Hall?"
He didn't expect it to be so easy, and Li Ye felt a little surprised.
"Remember, don't be affected by anything in the Demon-Conquering Hall. After so many years, although the demon has been suppressed, it has also allowed the demon to influence the world all the time, including many disciples of Tiansheng Sect.
had an impact.”
Li Ye thought of the lonely ghosts on the plains at night. These were obviously the demon's moves, and they seemed to be trying to surround the Holy City.
He nodded, "Senior, don't worry, junior will definitely do his best!"
Although there is no peerless treasure as he expected, the inheritance of an ancient sect is undoubtedly more gratifying than the peerless treasure.
Of course, Li Ye also sincerely admired Tiansheng Sect's great righteousness back then.
After all, this is not something that anyone can do easily, let alone the entire sect who has to guard a demon even if they are never reincarnated.
Now, he finally understood why the disciples of Tiansheng Sect were so unwelcome to him. They were obviously afraid of violating certain taboos.
While it was still dark, Li Ye quickly found the four demon-suppressing halls that the leader of the Tiansheng Sect said were located in the four directions of the divine beasts.
Outside one of the demon-suppressing halls, Li Ye took a deep breath.
Stepping into the palace, Li Ye did not dare to let down his guard, because the moment he stepped in, waves of murderous intent descended upon him.
At a glance, he saw a figure sitting cross-legged in the middle of the hall, slowly standing up.
