The Golden-Winged Roc glanced coldly at the Human Clan, then opened its mouth wide, runes flashing within, and a devouring power emerged from nowhere, attempting to directly consume this blood meal.
Overwhelmed by the terrifying aura of the Golden-Winged Roc, Lin Jia's knees buckled and she collapsed. Her delicate body was stained with blood, and the light in her eyes faded. She whispered, "It's over. I never thought this journey between immortals and demons would end like this."
However, the next moment, a scream echoed throughout the Immortal Valley. Lin Jia was somewhat confused. She opened her eyes, and a tall, slender figure was reflected in her dark pupils.
The young man had a flawless face, long hair flowing down his shoulders, and his body was surrounded by Chaos light. He subdued the peerless ferocious bird of the Immortal Platform Secret Realm with a single hand.
" Lin Jia, it's been a long time!" Su Yu said softly with a gentle smile.
Seeing that familiar gaze, Lin Jia felt a sense of relief. Remembering the giant bronze coffin, she said wearily, "You are...?"
Su Yu remained calm as he raised his hand and suppressed the Golden-Winged Roc beneath him. At that moment, Lin Jia Jiaqin's head drooped, and she fainted.
He stretched out his large hand, Chaos light flew out, bringing Lin Jia up. Then he picked the Heavenly Net Herb.
The Golden-Winged Roc was resentful and struggled fiercely, but the man on its body was like a Demon Mountain, pressing down on it and making it hard to breathe.
Seeing that the divine bird was still resisting, Su Yu's eyes turned cold, and he struck down with his palm, causing the Golden-Winged Roc to crack all over its body, cough up blood, and have no choice but to submit.
Finally, the roc spread its wings and carried the two into the depths of the Feathered Immortal Valley...
In the Central Region of the Eastern Wasteland, atop an ancient palace, the starlight and moonlight shone down, casting a soft glow that rendered everything in a hazy, dreamlike state.
Su Yu was drinking with Ye Fan, while the Xiao Nannan sat quietly at the table, looking at the lapis lazuli mask in her hand...
"You said that the Xiao Nannan found a bronze sword in the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land." Su Yu raised an eyebrow, his heart churning with turbulent emotions.
Ye Fan's eyes were clear as he retrieved an ancient bronze sword from the Bitter Sea and handed it to Su Yu, saying sincerely, "I owe you too many favors, and it's a pity I couldn't bring out the Sacred Fruit Divine Spring that time. I can only repay you with this sword!"
Su Yu stared at the mottled bronze sword in front of him, while Xiao Nannan stopped looking at the lapis lazuli mask and looked at Su Yu with her big, bright eyes.
The bronze sword was dull and lacked luster, with faint sacred divine patterns swirling on its surface, emanating a complex and profound Daoist charm. Although extraordinary, it was at most a Great Saint Weapon, incomparable to even Extreme Dao Emperor Weapon, let alone a Celestial Artifact.
But this is only the appearance. Su Yu had personally witnessed the supreme divine power of this divine sword. The immortal Immortal Sword revived on its own and cleaved the Void Ancient Mirror. The aura of destroying the past, present, and future and reopening the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths was absolutely the most powerful he had ever seen in his life.
This is the difference between divine weapons of Xian Dao and Emperor Weapon of mortals; the distinction between immortals and mortals is simply Yanming.
Su Yu sighed inwardly, thinking to himself, "Perhaps in the future, when I recall this moment, I can say, 'Once, there was a celestial artifact placed before me, but I did not cherish it...'"
Under the Xiao Nannan's gaze, Su Yu shook his head and said gently, "This divine weapon is extraordinary. Perhaps you can take it into the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land, but you should keep it for yourself."
Seeing that Su Yu refused, Ye Fan remained silent for a moment, then took out a Xuanhuang Cauldron shrouded in primordial energy.
"That's enough. It seems the only way is to tell the truth, otherwise you won't be at peace."
With a wave of his sleeve, Su Yu reduced the size of the Cauldron of All-Things Mother Qi to a tiny square inch and flew into the Xiao Nannan's hand. The little girl looked at the exquisite cauldron in her hand, somewhat bewildered, not knowing what had happened.
"The truth?" Ye Fan's heart skipped a beat, as if he had thought of something.
Meeting Ye Fan's gaze, Su Yu said softly, "This is not a sacred magic artifact, but a supreme immortal weapon."
"A celestial weapon?" Ye Fan exclaimed in surprise, "Could it be a weapon belonging to a Great Emperor?"
Su Yu shook his head and said seriously, "No, this is a True Immortal's Immortal Sword."
" True Immortal? Are there really immortals in this world?" Ye Fan asked absentmindedly.
"There were indeed True Immortal in the Chaotic Ancient Era, but after the Chaotic Ancient Era, this world was flawed and could not trigger the Immortal Ascension Tribulation, so there was no trace of True Immortal anymore." Su Yu took a sip of immortal wine and slowly recounted the ancient history.
Although he cannot obtain the Immortal Sword, he can at least observe its Immortal Sword patterns. If he can comprehend even a trace of Xian Dao patterns, it will undoubtedly improve his swordsmanship.
"The world is flawed... and I actually obtained a True Immortal weapon."
Ye Fan was horrified. Then he looked at the Xiao Nannan. This was truly a dream. His sister had actually found a celestial artifact.
Holding the Immortal Sword, he looked at the ancient and mottled bronze sword, still somewhat incredulous. "I tried to activate this bronze sword, but I could only unleash the power of Inherited Saint Weapon. Although it was stronger than my battle halberd, it was far from comparable to Extreme Dao Emperor Weapon."
"Its brilliance is restrained, and divine objects conceal themselves. To truly activate a celestial artifact, you must achieve a fully formed Sacred Body. For now, you can treat it as a Saint Weapon. If you wish to unleash its divine power..."
Su Yu took out a Chaos Green Lotus and then released a wisp of extreme Dao energy towards the bronze ancient sword.
In an instant, the ancient sword rang out with a resounding clang, carrying a heavy and intimidating pressure. One after another, Order Divine Chains emerged, like clusters of flames, converging towards Ye Fan and entangling him.
"It truly unleashed imperial might!" Looking at the Immortal Sword trembling slightly before him, radiating divine light, Ye Fan was speechless with astonishment.
Gazing intently at the gleaming surface of the Immortal Sword, Su Yu's expression turned solemn as he murmured, "You can regard it as a wondrous artifact, growing stronger with each encounter, capable of contending with all ancient artifacts of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths."
Suddenly, Su Yu's expression shifted slightly. He thought of Shi Hao from Perfect World; the two were so alike. Shi Hao's Great Luo Sword Embryo was also like that—growing stronger when facing stronger opponents, capable of contending with any divine weapon. Was this another kind of Lunhui?
Is it possible that Heavenly Emperor Ye, who once rode a cauldron, is also going to switch to cultivating the sword path?
On the other side, the Xiao Nannan casually played with the Cauldron of All-Things Mother Qi and the Mother Gold Mask, a faint smile on her face. The imperial might that was enough to suppress the Holy Lord seemed to be non-existent in front of her, unable to affect her at all...
Ignoring Ye Fan, Su Yu looked at the Xiao Nannan and asked softly, "Does the Nannan like these?"
"Thank you, big brother, Nannan like it very much."
The Xiao Nannan was like a delicate porcelain doll, well-behaved and pretty, and lovable. She was playing with Ghost Face Mask made of Sky-Blue Mother Gold. The ghost mask looked creepy to outsiders, but she was quite fond of it.
Ye Fan also looked over. Hearing his sister's words, Ye Fan opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but ultimately didn't.
Poverty makes one lose ambition. If he possessed supreme Immortal Gold, he could have reciprocated with Immortal Gold. However, he is currently in dire straits and has nothing of value to offer except for immortal artifacts.
"Looks like I'll have to go to the Holy City." With a hint of resentment in his eyes, Ye Fan thought of his precious land.
Seeing that the Xiao Nannan accepted the divine jade Mother Gold he had given her, Su Yu smiled. It was good that she accepted it; what he was afraid of was that she wouldn't accept it.
In his eyes, the master of the Immortal Sword was not Ye Fan, but this person. As long as he cultivated a good relationship with him, it would mean that he could borrow this immortal artifact at any time.
Rounding up, it's equivalent to him also possessing a celestial artifact.
As for the Nine Heavens Divine Jade and Sky-Blue Mother Gold used this time, they are just a drop in the ocean. In particular, the Sky-Blue Mother Gold came from Xiang Yufei. The Central Emperor is also a person with great fortune. Although he has never obtained the Supreme Immortal Gold, he has a large piece of Quasi-Emperor Divine Gold.
After doing all this, Su Yu drifted away. Now, all he had to do was wait for Ziwei's main body to emerge from seclusion, and as an avatar, he could also successfully break through to the next realm.
After the owner of this place left, Ye Fan held the Xiao Nannan in his arms. He looked up at the eternal sky and thought of the girl in purple, feeling a pang of pain in his heart.
Some things, once they happen, cannot be undone. In addition, this time, the Ji Family twice used Emperor Weapon to hunt him down. He actually knew about the incident in the Northern Region, but he was unwilling to pursue it.
But this time was different. He almost died outside the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land. If Su Yu hadn't come to save him, he and his sister would have died. Since he descended to Big Dipper, this was the first time he had felt such deep hatred for a force.
Having sworn the blood oath, he vowed to invade the Southern Region the day his Sacred Body was fully formed.
Chapter 398 Heavenly Venerable Sword Art
Ziwei Star Domain, Northern Kuru Reed Continent, Inscribed Ancient Region.
The magnificent palaces atop the sacred mountain resemble grand and imposing ancient celestial palaces. From afar, countless wisps of divine light swirl and shimmer, creating a halo of auspicious radiance.
The area around the temple was entwined with countless runes, and the ethereal immortal Immortal Qi was ever-present, permeating the magnificent palaces and condensing into the form of Immortal Spirit.
A blue light flowed and shimmered, and a Azure Dragon coiled around it. Its scales were cold and radiant, exuding divine light. Its whole body was crystal clear, and each scale was as if it were cast from divine metal, sparkling and possessing the coldness and weight of metal. There were mysterious and complex traces of the Great Dao on it, and it exuded Immortal Qi, making it look extremely otherworldly.
A True Phoenix body entirely blood-red, flapped its wings and cried out, spitting fire in the Void and drawing streaks of crimson flames. Magnificent red clouds painted the nine heavens, condensing into a Chaos light.
On the other side, a terrifying White Tiger lay crouching, its body radiating a dazzling aura of Geng metal killing intent. This was a manifestation of the great laws of heaven and earth, sending chills down one's spine.
The clang of metal rang out, auspicious colors spread across the clouds, and a magnificent Purple Qilin appeared and disappeared; above the sky, a Three-Legged Golden Crow burst forth with Wuliang light, the True Solar Fire shook the vast ocean, and scattered endless radiance...
The Ebony Temple exhales the energy of the Sun-Moon, and stars, within which lies a hazy darkness, indistinct and impenetrable. In the deepest part of this darkness, a Chaos Dao Diagram floats and sinks, it is this diagram that devours all light, plunging this place into darkness.
The Immortal Map is ancient and vast, covered with talismans, as if it contains a world, rather than being a simple magical artifact. It is a symbol of the Great Dao formed after cultivating to the extreme, and now it has transformed into this shape, truly manifesting here. It is so solid, like the most terrifying physical Dao Artifact.
Beneath the Chaos Dao Diagram sat a person with his eyes closed, his black hair loose, and purple and white light swirling around his hair, shimmering like starlight. In front of him was a blood-red metal book.
The Bodhi Wood futon exuded a refreshing aura, and faintly, the sound of endless chanting arose, hazy and indistinct, indistinct yet resonating throughout the universe, as if three thousand gods and demons were chanting. This vast and powerful force was like a reappearance of Mythological Era, utterly incredible...
"Buzz!"
Suddenly, a wisp of purple light swirled between Su Yu's brows. He opened his eyes, which were filled with an extremely dazzling purple light, and the terrifying divine light directly tore through the Void.
At the same time, the surrounding area was filled with demonic energy, and a huge imperial star rose in the distance, radiating Eternal divine brilliance. He seemed to have become an unparalleled celestial demon, Reign Over All Under Heaven. This aura was in no way inferior to that of the Sky Demon King, and even touched upon the path of sainthood.
The ancient book, made of crimson gold, gleamed, its dense patterns lighting up like countless glittering stars, revealing its extraordinary nature.
As the Underworld Blood Book stirred, the Chaos Dao Diagram floated and sank, and a purple blood divine chain emerged, swaying and dancing within the Immortal Map. It contained the most mysterious bloodline power, appearing incomparably complex and profound, as if concealing a great cause and effect.
For millennia, countless cultivators have meticulously studied the power of bloodlines, for it truly is a path to Tongtian, capable of creating a Supreme even with incomplete bloodlines...
Su Yu's eyes remained calm as he gazed at the crystal-clear Heavenly Demon Blood Chain before him, his awe of the Devouring Heaven Demon Art growing ever stronger.
Originally, this bloodline power was hidden in the deepest part of the essence blood. Only Quasi-Emperor could analyze it to some extent. Cultivators below the Quasi-Emperor could not even touch the essence of the bloodline, let alone utilize it.
However, the Empress, with her astonishing talent throughout the ages, forged "True One" through the Dao of Devouring, creating an alternative path of bloodline and opening a door for weak cultivators, though this path was not easy to traverse...
Su Yu reached out and took the Purple Blood Divine Chain into his hand. The Heavenly Demon Origin shone brightly, like the most beautiful purple diamond in the world, Perfect World and flawless.
As the young man's eyes opened and closed, the surging demonic energy that had soared to the heavens dissipated, returning the body to its previous state. He gazed at the bloodline chain and sighed, "What a pity, if only it were Heavenly Demon Physique at the Saint Realm..."
Then the Chaos Dao Diagram descended, devouring the Heavenly Demon's essence. Su Yu's gaze was calm, his body was surrounded by Immortal Qi and mist, and he exuded an otherworldly aura, much like Xian Dao being.
This is precisely why the " Indestructible Heavenly Art " is called a celestial scripture. Putting aside its demonic nature, it truly deserves to be called a Wuliang Immortal Scripture.
Su Yu gazed at the two origins in the ancient Dao diagram before him. The eerie purple blood and the sacred light blood intertwined, swirling with Chaos energy, and gradually dissipated within the ancient scroll.
This time, he wanted to find a different path to enlightenment, to analyze the power of his bloodline in another way and strengthen his own Chaos origin. However, after expending a lot of Heartforce, he chose to give up and used the Devouring Heaven Demon Art to devour the Sky Demon King and the Light King.
There is no such thing as having it all. To want the Devouring Heaven Demon Art to absorb divine bloodlines and improve one's origin, while not wanting to be bound by the Empress's Dao Seal, is almost impossible for him at this stage.
Without reaching the Quasi-Emperor level, it is difficult to master the Bloodline Divine Chain; this is an ironclad rule of the Shrouding the Heavens era.
Although the Ruthless Great Emperor was stunning, her Lifetime incarnation, the Chaos Body, was still incomplete and needed to evolve into Divine Embryo to fill in the gaps...
After refining the heavenly demon's true blood and the bright divine blood, Su Yu took a step and escaped into the sky-swallowing demon jar. Then he waved his wide sleeves and took out two pages of red and gorgeous scriptures. This was the ancient scripture of the gods that contained the secret of the word "Zhe".
Yang Yi has already demonstrated all the divine techniques involved, and the avatar he left behind has also obtained the mental cultivation method and Dao patterns of the Zhe Character Secret.
However, that was only the inheritance of divine techniques. This ancient scripture also contained the inheritance of mental states, which Yang Yi sealed away and left to him...
However, this kind of mental transmission still needs to be done with caution. After all, the Longevity Heavenly Venerable is still alive, and there is such a risk. Entering the Devouring Heaven Demon Jar is the most appropriate way to do it, since this imperial artifact is very special and can isolate everything.
Su Yu pointed his fingers together as a sword, and a wisp of Chaos light flew out from his fingertips. In an instant, the two pages of the ancient crimson-gold scroll merged into one, and a clear phoenix cry flew out. Thousands of divine flames rose up, as if to incinerate everything.
The Phoenix Blood Red Gold, was as red as blood and radiated countless divine rays. Its ancient and weathered charm remained unchanged, undoubtedly the work of an ultimate being.
The ancient scrolls billowed with mist, their brilliance boundless. Crimson clouds dyed Su Yu's entire body red, making him almost translucent. A phoenix's cry rang out, clear and resounding.
Su Yu moved his hands, outlining the Chaos Dao Seal. In an instant, myriad auras filled the air, the Great Dao roared, Enlightenment Ancient Tea Tree Pendant emitted a faint luster, crystal clear.
At this moment, his Immortal Platform was completely clear, like the embodiment of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, and he could clearly perceive the veins of the surrounding Dao tracks.
In his eyes, everything changed shape. Strands of Dao patterns floated in the light mist all around. In the distance, rows of folds appeared in the boundless Void, dotted with stars. According to some inexplicable pattern, these were nodes of spatial Dao patterns. It was these spatial nodes that cultivators used to traverse the Void.
Su Yu pointed a finger, and Chaos energy emanated from it, entering the Phoenix Blood Red Gold Book. In an instant, auspicious colors appeared, divine rays shone in myriad directions, and countless crimson ribbons fluttered down, interwoven with runes, exuding boundless Daoist charm.
An ancient Innate Dao Diagram spread out in the Void, exuding boundless Dao charm. The densely packed small characters in the diagram kept jumping and emitting extremely intense light. When connected, they resembled a dazzling Immortal Phoenix, radiating mysterious and unpredictable brilliance. A hazy Chaos light also flowed around Su Yu.
