Realizing This Is Wuxia World After Cultivating For 300 Years

Li Cheng and Li Wei's expressions froze when they heard this. The two of them seemed to instantly turn into wooden puppets and did not move, their eyes filled with fear.
In the past few days, be it ordinary people or martial artists, they were very polite to them, as if they were entertaining guests.
This even made them subconsciously forget their true purpose.
They were here to investigate the death of their great-grandfather, Li Fa, and this matter was most likely related to His Eternal Majesty Cui in front of them. This is a life-threatening problem!
"Your Majesty, we ..." Li Cheng hesitated for a moment, but he decided to tell the truth. "We are indeed descendants of our great-grandfather, but we are not here to take revenge. We just want to investigate the reason for his death.”
This is true.
After all, Li Fa had already died over 6,000 years when they were born. In the mortal world, this matter was completely unrelated to their bloodline. They have absolutely no feelings for each other.
The reason why they had come to investigate was because the reward given by the Nine Death Heavenly Sect was too tempting.
The mission request did not say that they should avenge Li Fa. They just need to investigate the cause of death.
At this moment, Liu Litao, Chen Tong, Lu Zhengming, and the others also looked at Li Cheng. They're very curious. What kind of guts did he have that dared to come here to investigate?
Is he tired of living?
“I can tell you the cause of Li Fa's death.” Cui Heng smiled without changing his expression. “6,700 years ago, the Golden God rode a shuttle into the universe from here.
He met Li Fa at the Tianzhu Star and there was a conflict between the two sides. Li Fa was killed by that Golden God, but marks were also left behind in that Golden God.
After that, this Golden God used a secret technique to hide himself. He died over 3,000 years ago, handing the Eternal True Essence over to his son.
His son is now my Realm Guardian Spirit Beast.”
He had considered the situation before explaining it directly.
Although Cui Heng was cautious, he did not behave carefully just for the sake of it.
After understanding the situation in the Chongyang Star, he already understood that the power in the Chongyang Star could not threaten him.
Because of this understanding, his style of doing things naturally became straightforward without hesitation.
However, this sudden explanation left Li Cheng and Li Wei terrified. Their faces turned pale as they looked at Cui Heng with fear.
The person he wanted to investigate was actually the Realm Guardian Spirit Beast from Immortal Venerable Cui!
Although they did not understand how the human they had investigated back then and had now become a Realm Guardian Spirit Beast, this did not affect them to understand Cui Heng's intent.
This clearly tells them that it is time to take sides.
Should they stand by the side of the Nine Death Heavenly Sect and treat Cui Heng as an enemy? Should they fight to the end, or should they succumb to this hatred and firmly choose to stand by Cui Heng's side and explain the situation to the Nine Death Heavenly Sect?
Answer's clear.
They don't even have to think about making a choice.
Li Cheng and Li Wei looked at each other and knelt on the ground at the same time.
Then, Li Cheng bowed respectfully and said, “Your Majesty, actually, we brothers have absolutely no feelings towards Li Fa. Our bloodline connections are also very thin. We are not here to take revenge.
Just because the Nine Death Heavenly Sect took out three pieces of Immortal True Core as a reward, we came to investigate Li Fa's death for the sake of the family's strength.”
In his panic, he did not even dare to call Li Fa his great-grandfather, just calling him by his name.
After all, it had been passed down for countless generations.
"I understand. I wonder why the death of the Half-step Golden God is still being investigated after 6,700 years. Cui Heng slightly nodded and said, "Why does the Nine Death Heavenly Sect appreciate it so much?"
From what he had learned from Li Cheng and Li Wei earlier, the Half-step Golden God should not be an important figure in the Chongyang Star.
Even if Li Fa had once been valued by the Hermit of the Nine Death Heavenly Sect, there was no way he would still remember it after 6,700 years.
This was almost the age limit of a Sage.
It could almost be said that the Sage had borne this grudge for most of his life. That's really unbelievable.
“Your Majesty, it is said that Li Fa went looking for a method to reach the Sixth Peak Realm.” Li Cheng told his guess. “In addition, from the rewards of the Nine Death Heavenly Sect, Li Fa most likely had found some clues back then.”
“How to step onto the Sixth Peak of Nature?” Cui Heng thought hard upon hearing this. Then, he nodded and said, “This is indeed possible. For a Sage who is about to die, no doubt this is the most important thing.”
This news was relatively important to him.
Now, he only knew half of the cultivation method for the Nine Realms of the Eternal World, which was the method of the Boundless Golden God at the Peak of the Fifth Realm to step into the Sixth Realm and become a Sage.
As for how to break through to the Peak of the Sixth Realm, he had no idea at all. He did not even know what the Sixth Peak Realm was called or what characteristics it possessed.
If he could investigate this, it would definitely make his Nascent Soul cultivation increase by leaps and bounds.
To the current Cui Heng, any important news could be said to be a great tonic.
Knowledge and information were equivalent to cultivation and strength!
Li Cheng lowered his head and did not dare to continue speaking
If he continued to ask, he would ask if Cui Heng had already understood the clues Li Fa had found since he had conquered the son of the person who killed Li Fa.
According to him, if he really asked that, he would be nearing death.
Li Wei also understood this logic and lowered his head, remaining silent. "No need to be nervous." Cui Heng looked through the sibling mentality and smiled. “I really don't know if Li Fa has found anything. The person who killed Li Fa back then probably didn't know either.
Perhaps in this world, only he would know if there were any clues about this cultivation method. No, there's nowhere else. The clue might be in Tianzhu Star. That was where Li Fa was buried, and also the last place he hid.
If there really was a clue, it was most likely hidden in Tianzhu Star. Because he was also buried in Tianzhu Star. Naturally, no one mentioned this clue anymore.”
Thinking of this, he firmly said to Li Cheng and Li Wei, “You guys should have a directional guide to traverse the vast universe through the shuttle. Something similar to Star Map, right?”
"Yes there is." Li Cheng hurriedly nodded and said, "There's a Star Map on the Star Shuttle to guide our goal and adjust the direction."
As he spoke, he took out a palm-sized shuttle model from his sleeve and tapped it gently.
Then, a light blue light screen flew out of the shuttle.
It floated above the aircraft and countless starlight spread out, forming several starry skies.
In this thin curtain, there were countless stars, and many stars were marked with names.
Especially the stars with life.
Almost everything has a name.
When Cui Heng saw the Star Map hovering above the shuttle, he was about to observe it carefully when he suddenly felt that the Star Map was a little familiar.
He hurriedly looked closer and his eyes lit up.
“The Star Map in this area is almost identical to the one I saw in the Purple Extreme Palace. This is the existence of Qiqi.”
