"If the Divine Son is so strong, why didn't we seal him while he was sleeping?" Li Xuan asked after some thought.
Jian Nancang smiled bitterly and replied, "This is also something we can't figure out. Every time the Divine Son is heavily injured, he is taken away by a mysterious force. Even if we break into the Divine Realm Continent, we still can't find him."
"More importantly, once we break into the Divine Realm Continent, we won't just be facing the forces of the Divine Realm Continent. As I said before, the Divine Realm Continent is no less than our Immortal Realm Continent. The three powers are intricately complicated, and the high-end combat power is difficult to resist."
"Is there no complete solution?" Li Xuan frowned and said.
Jian Nancang smiled bitterly and said, "It's not that there isn't one, unless there is a person who can break the deadlock. This person can overpower the Divine Son, or even kill him completely. But tens of thousands of years have passed, and this person has not appeared. As we progress, so does the Divine Realm Continent."
Li Xuan sighed speechlessly. Both sides had top-tier combat power, but the Divine Realm Continent was clearly stronger. Moreover, with the existence of the Divine Son, the cohesion of the Divine Realm Continent was naturally incomparable to the Immortal Realm Continent.
As for the appearance of someone stronger than the Divine Son, it was simply too difficult. Otherwise, the situation would not have remained the same for tens of thousands of years.
"In the past, there was indeed no such person to break the deadlock. But now, this person has appeared." Jian Nancang suddenly said.
Li Xuan was stunned and asked, "If that's the case, why haven't we acted yet?"
Jian Nancang looked at Li Xuan meaningfully and said, "This person who can break the deadlock is you, but your current strength is probably not enough to fight the Divine Son. Even I am probably not the opponent of the Divine Son, let alone the strong protectors of the three forces around the Divine Son."
"Me?" Li Xuan was instantly stunned. Although his strength was unrivaled at the same level and he could even fight across levels, how could the Divine Son who ruled the entire Divine Realm Continent be someone he could contend with now?
Jian Nancang seemed to see through Li Xuan's thoughts and nodded, "You are indeed not the Divine Son's opponent now. But you are the chosen one. If even you cannot break the deadlock, then perhaps no one in this world can."
"Master, you're putting too much pressure on me," Li Xuan said with a bitter smile.
"You don't need to be so modest. Think about it, our Sword Sect has continuously lost to the Martial Academy in competitions, but your appearance has directly reversed this situation. Let's put it this way, have you seen Wu Hao Tian? Who in the Sword Sect now can fight against him?"
Jian Nancang smiled and continued, "But you not only won, but you also improved further because of it. Even I would probably have to use seventy percent of my strength to suppress you. With such talent, are you still afraid of that Divine Son?"
"Master, although I know you're using provocation, I'm really not afraid of that so-called Divine Son. But not being afraid doesn't mean I'm arrogant. Even if I can't defeat the Divine Son, I'm confident I can still take a piece of his flesh." Li Xuan said calmly.
Jian Nancang nodded slightly and said, "You are about to enter the Years Walker realm, aren't you? When you enter the River of Time to cultivate, the gap between you and the Divine Son can still be shortened."
Li Xuan's heart stirred and he asked, "Master, is there an Emperor of Time who governs the River of Time?"
Jian Nancang's eyes flashed with surprise and he nodded, "There is a legend of such an existence in the River of Time, but he is rarely seen. Moreover, once we overuse the power of the River of Time, we will suffer backlash, and even be expelled from the River of Time. All of this, to some extent, has something to do with this person."
"Holy cow, I didn't expect this guy to be so strong," Li Xuan said with a strange expression.
Jian Nancang's gaze shifted and he asked, "Disciple, have you seen that existence?"
Li Xuan nodded truthfully and said, "I saw him in the River of Time during the competition at the Martial Academy. That flag was also brought to me by him."
Jian Nancang looked at Li Xuan in shock and said, "Such a person actually appeared voluntarily! Although I said I wouldn't inquire about your past, at this moment, I can't help but be curious. Never mind, since you have gained his favor, after you enter the Years Walker realm, you will probably have many benefits."
"Young master, if your cheap master knew that fellow called you 'young friend' and begged you for help, he would probably fall off his jaw," the voice of the Heavenly Dao Pen sounded in Li Xuan's mind.
Li Xuan: "..."
Cang Ling Pagoda: "..."
"Master, I want to know how much time we have left?" Li Xuan asked Jian Nancang.
Jian Nancang pondered for a moment and said solemnly, "Every time the Divine Son awakens and takes action, it will be within ten years. As I said before, the Divine Son has been awake for five years, so we only have five years left."
A sharp glint flashed in Li Xuan's eyes.
"Five years... It seems I really have to go all out to improve myself."
