Guarding the River of Time

Chapter 199: Endless Fire Domain The Growth of the Flame Emperor


Who will compile this massive amount of information?

Once upon a time, it took a hundred great scholars a century to sort out rough information, and the current volume is countless times that.

The third brother also noticed the elder brother's confusion and immediately said, "Brother, leave this matter to me."

"Do you remember Zhang Taixuan?"

Upon hearing this, the elder brother's eyes lit up, as he almost forgot about this person.

Back when he and the third brother conquered the Great Woe Immortal Realm, Zhang Taixuan played a very important role in stabilizing the situation, public opinion, and faith.

Zhang Taixuan, once revered by everyone in the Great Woe Immortal Realm as Celestial Master Zhang, is still known as Celestial Master Zhang today. Moreover, with the support of the elder brother and the third brother, Zhang Taixuan holds a very high status in the Great Woe Immortal Realm.

The "Taixuan Sect" he founded is the primary sect in the Great Woe Immortal Realm, with tens of thousands of disciples.

The apparent role of founding the "Taixuan Sect" is to assist the elder brother and the third brother in stabilizing the situation, preaching across the Immortal Realm World, and spreading the teachings.

But in fact, Taixuan Sect has another crucial role, which is serving as the best "main brain" under the elder brother and the third brother.

.....

"Brother, you might not be aware, but the scale of Taixuan Sect is now very large."

"Moreover, over the past ten thousand years, I've noticed you've been too busy, so I've entrusted some of the tedious affairs of the Great Woe Immortal Realm to Taixuan Sect, and you've seen the effects, there have never been any issues."

"Therefore, handing over the compilation of this information to Taixuan Sect is most fitting."

The third brother slowly analyzed.

Upon hearing this, the elder brother's eyes lit up: "Have Zhang Taixuan come here."

....

Zhang Taixuan thought for a moment after listening, then asked: "Great Venerable, this task is indeed complex, but it should be doable, though it will take some time. Do Great Venerable and Three Venerables have any time requirements?"

After hearing this, the elder brother slowly said: "The Domain Conquest War will commence in a hundred years. You should at least aim to organize all the information within ninety-nine years, leaving us a year for buffering."

.....

"Great Venerable, it shouldn't take that long, approximately fifty years to complete the entire compilation."

Zhang Taixuan said with a cupped fist.

Upon hearing this, the elder brother's eyes lit up, expressing surprise: "Fifty years?!"

"Yes, although the disciples of Taixuan Sect are generally not very strong, each one possesses extraordinary skills. They are storytellers, preachers, and book compilers who deal with text daily. They are entirely capable of handling the task of compiling information."

They also knew Zhang Taixuan; he had never exaggerated. If he claimed something could be done, it certainly could be done.

"Fifty years, that would be even better."

The elder brother joyfully thought that the decision to utilize Zhang Taixuan back then was indeed a wise one.

"Whatever you need, feel free to ask, and we will try our best to meet your needs."

The elder brother said with a smile.

.....

"Great Venerable, once the task is completed, I have a small request." Zhang Taixuan stood up and said to the elder brother with a cupped fist.

"Taixuan, please sit down, no need to be so formal, feel free to state your request."

The elder brother gestured for Zhang Taixuan to sit down.

"If Great Venerable and Three Venerables conquer the Ancient Wilderness Immortal Realm, could I request the Lord to allow Taixuan Sect an opportunity to establish a Dao lineage in the Ancient Wilderness Immortal Realm..."

Zhang Taixuan bowed deeply with his hands cupped.

He knew very well that once the Great Venerable and the Three Venerables subdued the Ancient Wilderness Immortal Realm, they would also bring under their control many other powerful sects that surpassed Taixuan Sect, which could mean Taixuan Sect might become a discarded piece.

So, Zhang Taixuan's real intention was to hope that the elder brother and the third brother would not abandon Taixuan Sect in the future.

Hearing these words, the elder brother was initially stunned, as he could certainly hear the underlying meaning in Zhang Taixuan's words.

"Taixuan, you worry too much, rest assured... Taixuan Sect will not become a discarded piece."

"After we conquer the Ancient Wilderness Immortal Realm, I will also support Taixuan Sect to become the premier sect of the Ancient Wilderness Immortal Realm, allowing you to manage the teachings, faith, scholarship, and documentation, ensuring your status will not be lower than it is now."

The elder brother said with emphasis on each word.

"Thank you, Great Venerable, thank you for giving Taixuan Sect such an opportunity, we will certainly not let the Lord down."

Zhang Taixuan also solemnly promised.

....

Among the Ten Thousand Realms, there is a special Great World known as the "Endless Fire Domain."

Within the Divine Flame Hall of the Endless Fire Domain exists a small world inside a cave.

In this small world of the cave, beneath a fiery red mulberry tree, sit two figures.

One of them, dressed in a red-gold python robe, with chiseled features and unparalleled aura, has flickering immortal flames in his eyes and a hint of stubble on his chin, showing a slight sense of weathering by time.

Opposite the man sits a white-haired gentleman, tall and elegant, with an equally outstanding demeanor, but the ravages of time have shown on his face.

"Master, what do you think of the message from above?"

The man in the red-gold python robe is none other than Xiao Huo, the Emperor of the Endless Fire Domain.

As soon as he finished speaking, the white-haired man picked up a white piece from the board and, after placing it, said slowly: "Just do what you ought to do."

The white-haired man is not only Xiao Huo's master but also his guide and Guardian, one of the most important people in Xiao Huo's life, Elder Yao.

...

"Master, I want... to participate in the main battlefield of the Domain Conquest War."

Xiao Huo picked up a black piece and, as he placed it, made the whole game tense and murderous.

Upon hearing this, Elder Yao didn't answer but focused on the board. After pondering for a while, he placed a piece, instantly dismantling the tense and murderous situation Xiao Huo had designed, leading to a potential overthrow, making Xiao Huo's advantage instantly disappear and even putting him into a deadlock.

After placing the piece, Elder Yao slowly raised his head and looked at Xiao Huo, saying each word with emphasis: "Disciple, I know you are eager to show your worth."

"But you must understand, the Lord is attacking an Immortal Domain, and it's an Upper-Rank Immortal Realm at that."

"With our Endless Fire Domain's strength, heading to the main battlefield would only end in us being cannon fodder."

"Just like this game, you were too hasty, and it backfired."

Elder Yao said with emphasis on each word.

What he said was indeed correct.

They ascended step by step from the Fighting Continent to the Upper Realm and established the "Endless Fire Domain" in the Upper Realm.

Yet despite this, there is still a significant gap between the Endless Fire Domain and a Lower-Rank Immortal Realm.

Because after he cultivated to the Dou Emperor Realm in the Fighting Continent, and ascended to the Upper Realm to establish the Endless Fire Domain, his combat prowess, when compared to the All Heavens and Myriad Realms, should be in the True Immortal Realm.

At this moment, Xiao Huo's cultivation is at Earth Immortal Perfection.

"Master, I have a bold idea." Xiao Huo said to Elder Yao, having thought of something.
