Longevity Martial Arts: I have a Mysterious Water Snake Avatar-Chapter 503 - 398: One flower does not bring spring; a garden full of blooming flowers signifies the arrival of spring.
The Supreme Saint Cave Heaven, dense with a scholarly atmosphere, was filled with academies.
The East Supreme Saint paid no heed to these, heading straight to the core of the Supreme Saint Cave Heaven.
There lay a Holy Array, within which waves surged tumultuously, and thunderous roars echoed continuously.
Upon closer inspection, one would discover this Holy Array was primarily formed by a torrential river, its tides raging and sweeping in all directions. Most peculiar was that this river flowed in reverse.
Within this Holy Array resided a strange and mighty Great Power that seemed capable of reversing heaven and earth, forcibly altering the rules, rendering Holy Artifacts and Divine Powers utterly unusable.
Reverse River!
Or rather, it was an ultimate Holy Array formed with the Reverse River as its core, known as the Reverse Saint Array, its might illustrious.
The Reverse River, which Hong Yuan had sought for so long, lay peacefully within the East Supreme Saint’s Cave Heaven.
This Reverse Saint Array was precisely the East Supreme Saint’s method to restrain the Eastern Wilderness Divine Continent. It was the foundation of his confidence that no Saint would dare interfere when the nine Great Dream Seeds clashed in the Eastern Wilderness Divine Continent!
There was a clear distinction between the Holy and the mundane.
To nurture the strongest "King Worm" Destiny, the East Supreme Saint had indeed expended immense effort and concern.
"Xuan Guangqiao..."
"Great Dream Emperor..."
"I have only a little over two hundred years of Life Span left; time waits for no one..."
The East Supreme Saint stood with his hands clasped behind his back, gazing at the surging Reverse River, his eyes deep with contemplation. If possible, I wish I could personally end Xuan Guangqiao. Regrettably, he always stays within the Dragon God Sacred Land, preventing me from taking action. However, it’s precisely because of Xuan Guangqiao’s "steady" conduct that my killing intent has grown even stronger. He had better not give me an opportunity, or I will make the world understand what Thunder God Might truly is!

The night was hazy, the bright moon shining with pure clarity.
On the Sky-connecting River, where the Phoenix Creek Sect resided, a lone boat shaped like a leaf drifted downstream with the current.
Illuminated by the moonlight, the river’s surface shimmered with countless ripples. Occasionally, a fish would leap from the water, creating a splash and sending out concentric waves. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦
The mountains on both banks stood in solitary silence; even the sounds of insects and birds had faded away. The night was utterly tranquil, imbued with a profound sense of peace.
Shi Lingfang stood on the deck of the small boat, bathed in moonlight.
This was an Incarnation condensed from Temporal Tao Divine Power. Its cultivation was only at the sixth order, far below her Original Body, and its aptitude was also far inferior to that of her Original Body.
Shi Lingfang’s black hair cascaded like a waterfall, her skin was like suet jade, and her white dress fluttered gracefully, giving her the pure and ethereal appearance of a water nymph.
However, at this moment, a stunned expression was on her face as she received intelligence transmitted from Treasured Yellow Heaven.
Bo Qing, while fighting and retreating, not only wasn’t killed by the Seven Saints of the Sect, but he even managed to turn the tables, suppressing them and nearly killing Ansheng Martial Saint!
Even though I am a descendant of the Dragon Sun Emperor and a seventh-order Temporal Tao Saint, if I were at the same cultivation level, I would find it difficult to achieve what Bo Qing did. At most, I could remain undefeated, but I would hardly be able to mount any effective counterattack.
Bo Qing’s talent and brilliance had once again astonished Shi Lingfang.
At this thought, a flicker of pained reluctance crossed Shi Lingfang’s eyes.
With a clench of her jaw, she turned and walked into the boat’s cabin.
Inside the boat, Li Shenyu was seated with an old man dressed as a fisherman, sharing wine and engaged in a very pleasant conversation.
This fisherman-garbed old man was none other than the current Phoenix Creek Great Saint of the Phoenix Creek Sect, a figure ranked among the top five within the Sect Alliance, his name Fu Yanjiang.
Fu Yanjiang had been a rising star, a prodigious talent, ever since his debut. In his early years, upon opening his spiritual awareness, he had formed one of the legendary Ten Extreme Bodies: the Northern Ming Ice Soul Body.
The Northern Ming Ice Soul Body was a forbidden constitution of the Ice Tao and Soul Tao. If one did not become a Saint within the specified time, they would self-destruct and die.
Anyone else obtaining such a body would surely be filled with dread or develop a perverse temperament, ultimately perishing helplessly.
But Fu Yanjiang was different. He held grand ambitions within him. Furthermore, he used unconventional and cunning methods to rapidly enhance his cultivation.
By the time he advanced to the peak of the fifth order, he had suppressed the nine great figures of the Phoenix Creek Tutelage.
Afterward, he ventured out from his Sect to challenge the heroes of the world, defeating every young contender in the Eastern Wilderness Divine Continent to the point where no one dared to claim supremacy.
His most peculiar battle was against the Daxuan Dynasty’s Saint, "Falling Wind Marquis." The Marquis attacked him dishonorably, but Fu Yanjiang utilized his own Saint Achievement Immortal Transcending Tribulation to defeat him decisively.
What was even more terrifying was that Fu Yanjiang was a Heavenly Talent Martial Saint accepted into the Eastern Wilderness Academy, and he had even received a summons from the Heavenly Palace.
However, his heart was tied to the Phoenix Creek Sect. Until he found a successor, a seed for the next Phoenix Creek Great Saint capable of shouldering the Sect’s responsibilities, he would not step into the Heavenly Palace.
For such an existence, Shi Lingfang and Li Shenyu naturally showed great respect.
Even though the Phoenix Creek Great Saint had become much frailer with the passage of time, his combat strength was less than fifty percent of what it had been in his prime!
"Senior, I have a Time Phoenix Grass..." Shi Lingfang said in a clear voice, extending her hand to reveal a phantom-like divine medicine shaped like a cyan phoenix.
TING!
At that moment, Li Shenyu looked at Shi Lingfang in surprise, while the Phoenix Creek Great Saint narrowed his eyes.
Time Phoenix Grass was an exceptionally rare Temporal Tao divine medicine, growing only within the river of time. It was effective even for cultivators at the Great Saint Level.
Its effect was to allow the user to return to their peak condition for a period of three years!
This was a divine medicine that could be considered the foundation of a Sect, a treasure of such caliber that perhaps only Shi Lingfang, a descendant of the Dragon Sun Emperor, could produce.

"Dream Tao Divine Power—Reversed River Protective Dream Robe!"
A vast river of azure waves materialized out of thin air, swirling around Hong Yuan’s Sword Body. It quickly formed a light blue robe, fortifying him.
Not only that, but the mist formed from the water vapor also undulated faintly, concealing lethal intentions.
