Elder Ancestor Bai nodded. He did not want to waste time talking nonsense. Even though the three of them had different views on the matter, they all had the same interests in sealing the Space Passage.
Though Earth occupied a vast space, who would want another person to share it with?
If they managed to finish all arrangements before the saints of the Upper Realm descended, once the saints arrive, they could straightaway display their power forces. With that, how would the saints have the opportunity to rise?
Therefore, no matter how much he despised these two fellows who had harmed him a couple of times, he still would not play any tricks on them. On the contrary, he would do his very best and perform perfectly.
With that, Elder Ancestor Bai said decisively, "I know several places that can easily recall the main Space Passage. Come on, follow me."
Fang Ning and Bodhisattva Spirit King nodded.
"Sir System, seize me for a bit, " Fang Ning said boldly.
"You're doing a good job pretending though, why do you need me?" Sir System was confused.
"Rubbish, they're going to use the Void Diversion in a bit and I don't know how to do it, " Fang Ning replied plausibly.
"This is the first time I'm hearing someone who 'doesn't know' speak so loudly..." Sir System said angrily.
"Thank you for the compliment, Sir System, " Fang Ning responded shamelessly.
System Notification: [The System has seized the Host's body. ]
Sure enough, the next moment, Elder Ancestor Bai drew out some space coordination in the air, an extremely queer-looking pattern that was three-dimensional which was glistening appeared. Whatever it was, Fang Ning did not understand it and in his eyes, they were just a bunch of scrawly handwriting twirling around.
"The two of you should be able to understand this, right?" He questioned softly.
Bodhisattva smiled whereas Vigilante A nodded.
Then, the three of them disappeared at the same time.
The very next moment, the three of them appeared at the side of some mountains.
A disgusting stench, seemingly from a swamp, could immediately be smelled.
The abandoned hills were on their left. It was September, the end of summer and autumn was coming. That was why the mountains were turning from green to a yellow shade.
On their right was a large swamp. Pools of mud were everywhere and who knew how much rotten stuff was hidden beneath the sandy brown water surface.
"This is one of the Space Passage's capillaries. Most of the devil creatures like to come out from here because they're most easily attracted to the swamp's stench, " Elder Ancestor Bai explained softly.
"Next, I'll use it to recall one of the main Space Passages that is commonly used by the demons, " Elder Ancestor Bai continued the introduction.
"Alright, just do it. With me guarding you over here, I believe nobody will come and disturb us..." Vigilante suggested lightly.
Elder Ancestor Bai nodded, then reached out both hands. His fingers were extended out as if he was calculating something.
From what Fang Ning observed, this fellow seemed to be typing on a keyboard. Was it possible that he, too, had a computer system?
Impossible, absolutely impossible. Sir System was one of a kind.
After a long period of time, the sky had darkened. Daylight and darkness had come and gone for at least five times or more.
During this period, some poisonous demons and monsters had crawled out from time to time, but as soon as they appeared, they immediately fled the area. None of them dared to come near the three.
This was actually something normal, as among them there was a dragon, a tyrant of the demons, and a bodhisattva. None of them was someone nice to provoke.
"Alright, I've finally found it." Elder Ancestor Bai stopped his hand movements and let out a long breath of relief, his entire head dripping with sweat.
"The realm moves as time passes and the Heavenly Axiom shifts around. This main passage has changed as it seems to have expanded a lot. Looks like the fellow who's descending may be a bit stronger, " he continued explaining.
"Oh, so that's what it is. No wonder five powerful arhats appeared the last time, " Vigilante A nodded.
"Five arhats?" Sensitive as always, Elder Ancestor Bai noticed something off.
"That's got nothing to do with you. Now, tell us how can we seal off this passage?" Vigilante A asked in return.
Elder Ancestor Bai could only secretly take note of this matter in his head. He understood that this was absolutely no simple matter. Arhats were direct descendants of the ancestral gods, the disciples of the ancestral gods.
If five of them were sent to the Lower Realm together, it would mean that the Upper Realm's Buddhists were planning to make a big move.
That was no wonder even someone as strong as Vigilante A was struck with panic and would risk releasing someone like himself just to seal off the Space Passage.
"Destroying a passage is practically impossible, but blocking it is much easier. There are three ways to do it. The first one is to use a large amount of magic and infuse it to break the vulnerable points of the passage so when the Space Passage collapses, it'll naturally be blocked; the second way is to use some spatial talisman to blast the passage, which can also cause the passage to collapse; the third way is to jam something up the passage, preferably a powerful talisman..." Elder Ancestor Bai went on and on happily, not bothering to conceal information.
In the System Space.
Fang Ning had a frown on his face as he was listening when suddenly, the green-skinned frog from the Divine Monument and the blue macaw from the Earthly Monument jumped out.
"Master, the Heavenly Axiom ordered us to go seal those Space Passages, " the green frog said gloomily with his baggy eyes wide opened.
The blue macaw was also flapping its wings with a dejected look, its eyes glistening with tears.
"What? How can that be possible?" Without a second of hesitation, Fang Ning immediately refused and said, "It's the Space Passage. Not only is it boundless, but it's also extremely dangerous. I know you guys are strong, but you can't possibly be able to resist the strong forces of so many mighty beings of the Upper Realm! Even if it's an order from the Heavenly Axiom, it's still too dangerous and I won't allow this."
"Oh, thank you for your concern, Master..." The green frog and the blue macaw were moved by his words.
If they had a different master, perhaps the other side would succumb to the pressure of the Heavenly Axiom, or at least hesitate.
After all, this was an order from Earth's Heavenly Axiom. Furthermore, they were the Heavenly Axiom Treasures that belonged to the Heavenly Axiom so it was only natural for them to devote themselves to the Heavenly Axiom.
As for the master standing right in front of them who straight up refused the Heavenly Axiom's order fully proved his caring heart. There was not an ounce of false pretense in him.
Clearly, they had no idea that in Fang Ning's eyes, the Heavenly Axiom was not placed the highest. Both him and Sir System had already successfully dealt with two arcane realms' Heavenly Axioms.
Although they were far different from Earth's Heavenly Axiom, they were still essentially a kind of existence.
Therefore, Fang Ning was not afraid anymore since the mysteriousness of a Heavenly Axiom no longer existed.
Moreover, the Earth's Heavenly Axiom was still requesting for him so it was even impossible for him to send out two out of three of his most cherished treasures.
If he were to lose these two, not only would he not be able to move freely, but he would also be in a disadvantaged position when he argued with Sir System in the future as he would not have the power to fight back.
Therefore, no matter what the reason, there was no way he would use these two treasures to block the Space Passage.
"Well, let me think of something. You two should go back and rest first. I won't let this happen, " Fang Ning assured.
"Thank you for your concern, Master." With that, the two sapient tools immediately disappeared.
System Notification: [Compatibility between the Heavenly Axiom Treasure Divine Monument, Earthly Monument, and the Host has greatly increased. The formidable power of fusion increases. ]
"Damn it, you just simply say something and you've gained all the benefits. Sigh, I'm really upset..." Sir System argued resentfully.
"Why are you even upset?" Fang Ning asked curiously.
"Nonsense, I'll be the one who's going to help them think of a solution, yet I don't get anything in return, " Sir System retorted.
"You're the one spitting nonsense. If I benefit from it, it'll be yours too, no? The Maxim stated that the formidable power of fusion has increased, but isn't my body seized by you? If the fusion of me and the two treasures increase our powers, won't you be like a tiger who's gotten wings when you battle?" Fang Ning responded boldly.
"Oh, my bad that I've blamed you wrongly, " Sir System said lamely, "It's all because how much you've neglected me in the past, so subconsciously I thought I was doing free labor once more. Since that's the case, I'll build a few more spatial talismans of poor quality as replacements to block the Space Passage then."
"That'd be nice. Well, you're still a heroic System and a reasonable one too. I'm relieved, " Fang Ning said happily.
"Of course. I've always been an innocent and honest system, " Sir System responded proudly.
