Chapter 14 — My Destiny Is Seventh Brother

A black air slowly rose from the top of my head, winding like an ugly worm. Tiet Mac's eyes were filled with murderous intent: "Demon Immortal seed... Since when..." Elder Duoc Vuong carefully collected the black energy into a jade bottle: "At least three hundred years ago." Three hundred years? Is this the right time for Thien Am to fall into trouble? Tiet Mac was struck by lightning: "You mean... Before Thien Am died, he was pinned to that seed?"

“That's right,” the Medicine King elder sealed the jade bottle, “Furthermore, this method... only Demon Immortal Venerable can do it.”

I leaned weakly on Tiet Mac's shoulder: "So... what does this mean?" Elder Duoc Vuong and Tiet Mac exchanged looks.

“I mean,” Tiet Mac said hoarsely, “Thien Am's destruction was not an accident, but a carefully calculated plot.”

Elder Medicine King nodded: "The Demon Immortal seed will slowly penetrate the host's origin, eventually turning them into a Demon Immortal clone." I suddenly remembered something: "My Am Palace Master... she just now..."

“She is testing to see if the Demon Fairy seed in your body is activated or not!” Tiet Mac suddenly understood.

Elder Medicine King checked again, then breathed a sigh of relief: "Fortunately, it was discovered in time, the Demon Fairy seed has not fully awakened yet."

“Can I take it out?” Tiet Mac quickly asked.

“Difficult,” the elder Medicine King shook his head, “It has been attached to the origin of Thien Am for three hundred years, and forcibly removing it will damage the foundation.”

Tiet Mac clenched his fists, his knuckles turned white: "Is there another way?"

“Yes,” the elder Medicine King said thoughtfully, “We need to find the person who pinned the Demon Immortal seed and understand the specific method to be able to solve it.”

Leaving Medicine King Coc, it was already dark. Tiet Mac was silent all along the way, in his eyes were storms silently rising. Returning to Thanh Thien Cung, he immediately activated the highest level defense formation.

“Now, don't leave my sight.” He said seriously.

I nodded, suddenly a dizziness came over me, I almost fell. Tiet Mac quickly caught me: "What's wrong?"

"My head... hurts so much..." I rubbed my temples, "It feels like something... is about to come out..."

Tiet Mac immediately carried me back to my room and gently placed me on the bed.

"It's Thien Am's memory," He rubbed my temple, "The Demon Immortal seed was stimulated, the seal was loosened."

When he gently rubbed, the pain gradually subsided, but strange images continuously appeared in my mind: A crystal palace... My Am Palace Master talking secretly with a shadow... Ma Tien Ton sneered...

“Ah!” I held my head, curled up in pain.

Tiet Mac hugged me and gently comforted me: "Relax, don't fight, let the memories pass naturally..." I took a deep breath, trying to accept those pieces of memory. Gradually, the pain subsided, but consciousness began to become vague...

"Thanh Thien Su Brother..." I heard myself say in an unfamiliar voice, "Do you still remember our promise?"

Tiet Mac stiffened slightly: "Thien... Yin?"

“It's me,” My voice continued uncontrollably, “It's also To Li... we are one body…”

Tiet Mac took a deep breath: "What do you want to say?"

“Be careful My Am… she betrayed us…” My voice became weaker and weaker, “The night of the lunar eclipse… they wanted…”

Not finished speaking yet, My eyes went dark and I fainted. When I woke up, it was late at night. Tiet Mac leaned on the bed and closed his eyes to meditate. I gently moved and he immediately opened his eyes.

"Are you awake? How do you feel?"

I checked my body's condition again: "It's better... What happened just now?" Tiet Mac's face was complicated: "Thien Am's consciousness temporarily took over your body, giving us a warning."

“What warning?”

“Master My Am Palace really betrayed us, and they have a plan on the night of the lunar eclipse.”

The night of the lunar eclipse... I try to remember but only have vague impressions.

“When is the next lunar eclipse?”

Tiet Mac calculated: "Seven more days." Time is urgent!

“So we…”

"Let's rest first," Tiet Mac pulled the blanket for me, "Tomorrow I will thoroughly investigate My Am Palace."

I nodded, suddenly thinking of a question: "Tiet Mac... If Thien Am's consciousness becomes stronger and stronger, will I... disappear?" Tiet Mac grabbed my hand: "No. You are not a replacement for Thien Am, but a continuation of her. Your souls have merged into one, it's just that your memories are not completely synchronized." This answer makes us feel much more secure. Late at night, Tiet Mac was in the study looking up ancient books, I went to bed alone. In my dream, I went to that crystal palace again. Fairy Thien Am stood in the center, a worried expression on her face.

“Time is running out,” she said, “The Demon Immortal Seed has begun to affect you.”

“What should we do?”

“Learn how to control the power of Thien Am,” she pointed to a corner of the palace, “There is my cultivation experience.”

I went in the direction she pointed, and sure enough, I discovered a row of jade slips. When I pick up a piece, huge information immediately floods my head! The entire 《Thien Yin True Understanding》… 《Ice and Fire Heart Sutra》… 《Tai Yin Shape Refining Technique》… These techniques seemed to be deeply ingrained in the blood, immediately and smoothly.

“Practice well,” Thien Am's voice gradually faded, “Before the night of the lunar eclipse, at least master three cities…”

The dream scene changes, we enter a battle. Thien Am fights alone with a number of powerful enemies, including My Am Palace Master!

“Why did you betray me?” Thien Am questioned.

My Am Palace Master smiled faintly: "Who told you to block my way? Thanh Thien Su Brother was originally mine!" The war broke out, although Thien Am was strong, it was difficult to deal with many people alone, in the end...

“Ah!”

I suddenly sat up, panting. Outside the window, it was morning. Tiet Mac heard the sound and quickly ran over: "Is it another nightmare?" I shook my head: "No, it's a memory... I saw the truth about Thien Am's death!" Tiet Mac immediately sat down: "Tell me." I recounted everything I saw in the dream in detail, especially the betrayal of Mi Am Pavilion Master. Tiet Mac's face was as dark as water: "It's really her... No wonder why she always targets you."

"She also said... Thanh Thien was originally hers..."

Tiet Mac smiled coldly: "A vain dream. I have never had even half the feelings for her." He gently wiped the cold sweat from my forehead: "What else do you see?"

“Nguyen Anh taught me to practice, saying that before the lunar eclipse we must master at least three parts of Nguyen Anh's power.”

Tiet Mac mused: "It seems that the night of the lunar eclipse is the key... From today, I will practice with you special episode.” After breakfast, we went to the martial arts training ground behind the mountain of Thanh Thien Cung. Tiet Mac activated the protective array: "Try the techniques you learned in your dream." I recalled the secret in 《Nguyen Anh Chan Giai》, forming seals with both hands.

“Nguyen Anh Ice Soul!”

A stream of blue light shot out from the tip of the finger, hitting the far away touchstone.

“Cut!”

The hard test stone immediately froze solid, then broke into powder with a "bang" sound! Tiet Mac's eyes widened: "This power... is almost five times that of Nguyen Anh in the past!" I was also startled: "I haven't used all my strength yet..." Tiet Mac was both happy and worried: "Continue!" That whole day, we practiced many exercises. What surprised me was that I could do many complex spells after just looking at them once, as if I had practiced them thousands of times. In the evening, Tiet Mac received a message from the Immortal Emperor and had to leave for a while.

"I'll be back in a moment," he warned many times, "Don't leave the martial arts training ground, this place is protected by a large formation."

I nodded in agreement and continued practicing.
