Tear Open the Great Curtain

"Legend has it that her father was a supreme Daoist Master from three thousand years ago, who controlled thunder and rain, and whose cultivation was unfathomable!"

The mini version of Sword Immortal tells the story of the Red-clothed Demon Immortal's Roots, analyzing her strengths and weaknesses.

Although she is called Demon Immortals, she has human blood. She deliberately hides her true origins. The path she walks is shrouded in drizzle, like a woman from a water town in Jiangnan. But this is just an illusion. Once she activates her innate ability—the Thunder of Ten Thousand Demons' Tribulation—she can annihilate Transcendent Immortals of immortals.

"Her mother was Twelve-tailed White Fox, exceeding the extreme number of nine, with three more tails, and was said to be even stronger than her father. She inherited all the advantages of both of them, surpassing them in every way."

Wang Xuan was moved. The Red-clothed Demon Immortal was indeed someone of importance. He frowned and said, "This means that there may be two powerful figures behind her?"

Sword Immortal shook her head and said, "After those two entered the behind the Great Curtain, there was no news of them. They disappeared completely. It is speculated that something may have happened to them."

"It seems the competition within the main storyline is exceptionally fierce. Those who have survived to this day and achieved such great fame are no ordinary people," Wang Xuan warned.

Especially the Red Female Demon Immortal, who personally killed a peerless expert. This was a record earned through battle. When Wang Xuan obtained the Nurturing Life Furnace, he saw some of the imprints of the great battle Transcendent Immortals in the past.

"She claims to be Demon Immortals, but in reality, she was born with a human body and only has half-demon blood. She is suspected of having studied a Golden Bamboo Slip from the Pre-Qin Daoist practitioners. If you treat her as a pure demon, you will definitely suffer a great loss. Of course, her demon methods are also very powerful."

Next, the Sword Immortal told him all the details, and Wang Xuan learned a lot.

He always felt that the Red-clothed Demon Immortal would not abandon him and might appear at any time, so it was necessary to do his homework and be on guard now.

"Fairy, what grudge do you have against her?" Wang Xuan asked.

"She was very domineering. A long time ago, she defeated our Sword Immortal Sect's founder and stole the Sword Manual. Unfortunately, I wasn't even born then."

The Sword Immortal said, looking very unwilling, feeling that if she had lived in the same era as the Red-clothed Demon Immortal, her cultivation would not have been weaker than hers.

She vowed to defeat the Female Demon Immortal and retrieve the sword manual.

"Is that scripture important?" Wang Xuan asked.

"Our sect's highest classic text is of course important. There are many things I haven't learned, so I have to create them myself," she replied listlessly.

"Creating your own might make you even stronger," Wang Xuan comforted him.

"If I had the original sword manual, I could create my own based on it and become even stronger," the miniature Sword Immortal muttered. She looked very young, with a childlike face and a slightly delicate demeanor.

"Simple. I'll give you a few sword manuals. What do you want to learn? Sword Control Technique, classical immortal swords, primordial spirit sword cultivation techniques, or boundless immortal swords."

The Sword Immortal looked puzzled and asked, "Have you read these sword manuals?"

Wang Xuan nodded and said, "I even have the Sword Classic chapter from the Pre-Qin Golden Bamboo Slips — the Dao Slaying Sword."

At this moment, the Sword Immortal was lost in thought. Some sword scriptures had long been lost, and she couldn't help but Transcendent Travel, looking adorably dazed again.

New Star appeared, a vast curtain shrouded the sky, and a multitude of Transcendent Immortals, demons, and other beings emerged together, like heavenly soldiers and generals descending upon the world, causing a tremendous sensation.

There was some unease among all parties, but no bloodshed occurred.

In the sky, a man holding Ascension Banner, with a full head of white hair, a few wrinkles at the corners of his eyes, and deep eyes, stood high in the sky, looking down at the world. He was wearing a fairy robe woven from the silk of the Yin Yang Divine Fire Silkworm.

His name Heng Jun. Before the curtain fell, he was the first peerless expert to obtain the supreme treasure. Although he had not yet fully refined it, he had already gained a general grasp of the Ascension Banner.

Otherwise, so many people wouldn't follow him, including two experts of the same level who really couldn't fight against him.

But Heng Jun never dared to easily tear open the Great Curtain and step out. He was suspicious of why several treasures suddenly appeared in this Exhausted Era.

After breaking through the behind the Great Curtain, can he really stop the Old Testament?

At the same time, he didn't want to leave either. He wanted to obtain some of the good fortune in the Immortal Realm and also kill some of his mortal enemies.

The curtain fell, close to the ground.

With a whoosh, Heng Jun took action to test it. He used the Ascension Banner to cut a slit in the curtain, which indeed broke the barrier locked by the Old Testament!

Behind him, the Transcendent Immortals exclaimed in surprise, their eyes filled with envy, but no one dared to make a move; they too were somewhat hesitant.

"Go into the real world and have a good chat with the various factions on this planet," Heng Jun said, pointing to some people.

In an instant, more than a dozen immortals emerged and passed through the opening in the curtain. Everyone stared at them, eager to see the outcome.

They didn't explode, their primordial spirits weren't torn apart, and they seemed to have passed through safely, but soon their expressions changed.

Their physical spirituality vanished, their primordial spirit dimmed, and the rules they had mastered were no longer suitable for this world. It was as if a powerful aquatic creature had come to land, struggling to stay afloat, but growing weaker and weaker.

"This world is no longer suitable for Transcendent Immortals," a person who had crossed over from another realm said bitterly.

He was a true immortal, originally very powerful, but now, his extraordinary essence is dissipating from his body, and there is no way to stop it. The symbols of order he constructed in his primordial spirit are rapidly blurring and disappearing.

This is terrifying. They were all perfectly fine when they left, but in an instant, much of their cultivation had dissipated.

Heng Jun's eyes were deep and unfathomable as he gripped the Ascension Banner tightly. He was worried that such a thing would happen, that he would inevitably fall after crossing realms and become a mortal.

"Although the Old Testament is not directed at us, there are indeed no Supernatural Rule in this world anymore," a Demon Immortals said bitterly.

It wasn't until much later that they settled down, all in the early stages of the Carefree Journey, which can be considered as breaking through the "ceiling," which was no easy feat.

For so long, even with the protection of peerless experts, sending Transcendent Immortals here would still result in problems, with their physical bodies and primordial spirits being torn apart, and their strength ranging from the fifth to the eighth stage.

Even with the protection of the Demon Pool and the obstruction of the Spiritual Mountain, it only allows a few individuals to maintain their ninth-level achievements, but they still cannot break through the ceiling.

Moreover, the cost is enormous, often requiring the consumption of the Ancestor Blood of the Demon Pool and the great power of Spiritual Mountain, which were prepared by the Demon Ancestor, Shakyamuni, and others for their own cross-realm crossing.

"This is incredible. It can send everyone to cross realms with the strength of a broken barrier without consuming the true blood and cultivation of a peerless expert. It truly deserves to be called a treasure."

Some people sighed, saying they were already quite satisfied with the result. After a moment of silence, Transcendent Immortals also felt that this situation was completely acceptable.

"Would you two like to go over there? You two are likely to be able to preserve your Earth Immortal Dao Fruit." Heng Jun spoke, looking at the two powerful figures on his left and right sides, both of whom were top figures in the Immortal Realm.

The two fell silent, then shook their heads, deciding they didn't want to cross over for the time being and would wait a bit longer.

They looked at the Ascension Banner. Possessing this treasure would most likely allow Heng Jun to retain some of his Dao Fruits above the Earth Immortal level, making his cultivation realm definitely higher than theirs.

They traveled along the special passage between the curtains and arrived at the curtain corresponding to the Old Earth the next day!

Some roads were originally blocked, but with the help of the Ascension Banner, Heng Jun led his followers to clear the way and, with the light rain, arrived at another immortal realm in a single day.

On that day, a grand curtain descended from the sky, as if heavenly soldiers and generals were about to descend, startling everyone in the Old Earth, and leaving ordinary people utterly shocked.

"Are those ancient people coming back?"

"They're all gods! They're so numerous, filling the entire sky!"

Heng Jun waved the Ascension Banner and once again opened the curtain, sending over two groups of people. The first group consisted of six people who headed towards Ping City to negotiate with relevant high-level officials and discuss matters in detail.

The second group of eighteen experts dispersed immediately after crossing over; some went to Kunlun, some to the Earth's Core, some to the Qinling, and some went directly to sea...

The second group consisted of Heng Jun's disciples and followers, his direct descendants, and they seemed to be searching for something.

"Wang Xuan, the beings behind the Great Curtain have arrived. There are two groups of people, all of them are powerful experts at the early stage of the Carefree Journey. This has changed the world and broken the balance," Chen Yongjie informed immediately.

The first group of people in charge of the negotiations were very assertive. After arriving in Ping City, they traveled to other places and met with some important figures in various locations, but they never smiled.

"You'd better stay out of here and avoid being the target of their attacks." Wang Xuan felt the problem was serious; a creature at the Carefree Journey had actually appeared, and he was under immense pressure!

As the curtain enveloped the high heavens, he saw it too. This was definitely thanks to the Ascension Banner, which preserved the strength of the Transcendent Immortals to cross realms to the greatest extent possible.

"They have huge appetites. They want historical records and local gazetteers, as if they're looking for something." Chen Yongjie felt immense pressure. He really couldn't beat someone at the level of "Carefree Journey."

Wang Xuan and Qing Mu have returned to Ancheng. Various news has come in, and the situation is not optimistic. The Old Earth has clearly been dug up. What are those people looking for?

That peerless expert, who wielded the Ascension Banner, was still preoccupied with something, making Wang Xuan realize that the Old Earth still held secrets and was far from simple.

"Where did they all go to search? Since they all have physical bodies, shouldn't the Heavenly Eye be able to detect them?" Wang Xuan asked.

"What time is it? Do you still want to snatch food from the tiger's mouth? Don't overthink it!" Chen Yongjie reminded him not to do anything reckless, but still told him the whereabouts of those people.

Wang Xuan noted down those places: Kunlun, Qinling, Qingcheng Mountain... When he heard this, a thought struck him. He remembered something that he would take back first, regardless of whether it was useful or not.

"Old Qing, what about that strange artifact I dug up in Qingcheng Mountain? Has it been deciphered yet?"

That was Wang Xuan's first time participating in an expedition, and he obtained two strange items, one of which was five pages of Golden Book, which was suspected to be a physical technique from the Daoist Ancestral Court passed down by Old Zhang.

There is also a Silver Animal Hide scroll, even more mysterious, hidden in a more secret Underground Palace beneath the five pages of Golden Book.

At that time, there was a top-notch Daoist Master sitting cross-legged, his black skin gleaming, his face ruddy, his eyes like stars, lifelike, holding a silver scroll and reading it.

As someone approached, he silently vanished into dust, turning everyone who touched him into a blood mist, leaving behind only a beast-hide book with a faint silver glow.

At the time, they speculated that the animal skin book, which could make an immortal Daoist Master so obsessed and engrossed in reading it, must have had an extraordinary origin.

The Daoist Master priest was so engrossed in his work that he seemed to have forgotten that his time was up and he Ascension to Immortality. His eyes were only on the silver scripture, and it was unknown whether his primordial spirit eventually entered the curtain.

"That thing is of great importance now?" Qing Mu was taken aback.

"I don't know, it's better to keep it for now. Have you found anyone to decipher it? Will word get out?" Wang Xuan asked.

"No results. No one could recognize those tadpole-like characters or scribbles." Qing Mu shook his head helplessly, then added, "Don't worry, I didn't show them the whole animal skin. I took each character out separately, traced it onto other pieces of paper, and sent them over for research."

"That's good!" Wang Xuan nodded.

Qing Mu was very efficient; in no time, he personally brought back the Silver Beast Skin Book and handed it to Wang Xuan to study.

"What era is this from? I don't recognize a single word!" Wang Xuan sighed. He had seen quite a few unusual scripts before, but even after looking at it again and again, he still had no clue.

The key point is that there were no brand marks left on the Silver Animal Hide.

After becoming an extraordinary being, one can resonate with the Spirit Imprint on both the Pre-Qin Golden Bamboo Slips and the Five-Colored Jade Book, and understand their meaning.

The animal skin book has endured for thousands of years, always bearing a faint silver glow, yet it remains silent and offers no clues whatsoever.

Wang Xuan turned it over and over to look at it, even trying to tear it open with his hands to check the inside, but he couldn't pull it apart; it was strangely sturdy.

He used his Spiritual Heavenly Eye to observe, and indeed there was nothing inside.

Whoosh!

After various attempts, he actually managed to store the Silver Beast Skin Book into his life soil, which made his heart pound wildly.

There weren't many things he could bring in; they were all top-tier treasures, such as his God Slaying Banner and the Pool of Rebirth of the Old Zhong family.

The God Slaying Banner had been planted in the soil of his life. Wang Xuan's heart stirred, and he beckoned it over, placing it next to the Silver Beast Skin Book to compare their materials.
