"Your Highness, what's wrong...?"
The silver-haired female Ancestor King was somewhat puzzled. She had a thin bloodline of the Blood Phoenix Clan flowing through her veins. Although she could not compare with Lan Qi and was only a peripheral branch of Blood Phoenix Mountain, her high-level Saint King realm was enough to make up for it.
When she was captured by the Island Master Cangyue, her cultivation level was at the eighth Saint King Eighth Heaven of the Saint King realm. During this period, she was baptized by the Divine Spring and then cultivated with Su Yu, where she was cleansed and refined by the Chaos divine power, thus entering the Ninth Heaven of the Saint King Realm, similar to the realm of the Divine Silkworm Princess.
By cultivating with a female Saint King who is stronger than himself, Su Yu can gain many benefits.
"Keep a cool expression on your face. I'll pass on a scripture to you, and also, your..." The black-haired youth said calmly, his face expressionless.
"Promise!"
The Silver Phoenix Maiden responded softly, her tone gentle, but this gentleness did not win Su Yu's favor.
Once you've seen the ocean, other waters seem insignificant. Both were peak Saint King, both were female Saints from Ancient Emperor Clans, but the situation had completely changed.
The next moment, the Silver Phoenix Maiden was enveloped in shimmering light, transforming into a serene queen with an air of authority in her eyes...
Chapter 478 Reigning Central Province, Soaring Across the World
His primordial spirit entered a wondrous state. Su Yu closed his eyes, restrained his aura, and his expression became somewhat cold as he recalled some past events.
After a long while, he opened his eyes, his silver robe with cloud patterns fluttering, and appeared on the carriage.
"My lord!"
Beside him, Shi Zhongyu held up a jade plate with both hands, on which were six lychee-sized sap grains of Dragon Marrow juice, shimmering with a crystal-clear brilliance and containing boundless Life essence.
Su Yu remained calm and said indifferently, "Your lifespan is limited, so these Dragon Marrow are yours!"
Six drops of top-grade Dragon Marrow are a treasure to the Holy Lord, as they can nourish the spine and moisturize the body. However, their effect is greatly reduced for cultivators at the Third Heaven of the Immortal Platform, and they are almost worthless to Saint. He has no shortage of such treasures.
The Purple Jade Holy Lord paused, his hands trembling slightly, but he quickly regained his composure, bowing his head even lower as he respectfully said, "My Lord, I have not rendered any service whatsoever, how could I possibly deserve this..."
His current body is as tall as an ordinary person, but it is only a phantom form; his true body has not changed!
"Just a few drops of Dragon Marrow."
Su Yu's eyes flickered as he interrupted Shi Zhongyu, saying gently, " The Nine Heavens Divine Jade, being spiritually connected, already possesses the qualities of Saint. This world will soon be revived, and the end of the Dharma Ending is approaching. Since you are driving my chariot, you should broaden your horizons!"
As he spoke, three streams of Immortal Qi swirled around him, densely packed with symbols, mysterious and unpredictable, shrouded in Chaos light, as if they did not belong to this realm, so profound and mysterious!
Listening to the words of the Saint, Shi Zhongyu seemed to be bathed in a rain of light, his body and soul imbued with Immortal Qi, and also imbued with a touch of otherworldly charm.
"Thank you, my lord!" Jade Spirit did not refuse again, but knelt down, her attitude very respectful, and her eyes showed gratitude.
"Just a bit of Dragon Marrow, and just because I am Saint, I can win the heart of a Holy Lord..." Su Yu heard Shi Zhongyu's thoughts, his mind was in turmoil, his gaze was complicated, and he thought of the Divine Silkworm Princess.
Perhaps, he shouldn't have had that delusion in the first place!
What Saint King would care about the admiration of an ant at the Four Extremes? The difference in status between the two is like that between heaven and earth; generally speaking, they would never intersect.
Besides, she still had a fiancé, although she wasn't anymore...
At this moment, the light lines fluttered, and patches of pure white light rained down, exuding a faint sense of melancholy that filled the spring pool.
For Su Yu, it was merely a random flow of thoughts, yet it triggered an unusual phenomenon: the laws of ice and darkness rose and fell, outlining a cold moon that hung in the void, condensing into endless frost.
Sensing the Saint's slightly melancholy mood, Shi Zhongyu put away the jade plate and returned to the Immortal Palace. In his hand, formed from purple jade, he held nine silver divine chains, which guided nine Big Dragon.
The next moment, water mist filled the sky, auspicious clouds burst forth, and nine dragons pulled the spirit palace, roaring through the heavens and earth as they rushed out from the hidden place of the Mountain Treasure. The surrounding Void rumbled and was crushed by the terrifying Chaos aura.
Some fragments of space, scattered across the earth, resembled the Milky Way falling from the sky, complementing the red waterfall and creating a misty landscape...
In another part of the Qinling, two figures, bathed in moonlight, slowly moved one after the other through the secluded primeval forest. The bright Mingyue shone among the pines, and a clear spring flowed over the rocks; only the gurgling of the water could be heard, making the dark night even more tranquil.
The old man in hemp clothing had gray hair and was weak; there was nothing particularly special about him. People like him could be seen everywhere in the world.
He wandered aimlessly, seemingly oblivious to the young people around him.
As dusk fell, Ye Fan's black hair cascaded down his shoulders, his face was round and somewhat plump, giving him a chubby appearance.
Before coming to Central Province, he had used the Great Art of Changing Heaven and Earth" to change his appearance and used Duan De's portrait without permission.
This time Ye Fan came here for the secret of the word "bing", but all the clues were interrupted in the Qinling Mountains, leaving him somewhat unable to start.
Unlike the original timeline, this time he did not receive guidance left by the Saint Qingxuan, nor did he encounter Princess Yue Ling.
Because he was wary of the conversion technique, Ye Fan passed by the Qin Sect without entering, Perfect World avoiding it with the Nine Secrets: Bing. However, he later encountered the old man in a village, and the two joined the Qin Sect together, confirming that there was a great secret within it.
But he still couldn't figure out the secret of the word "bing". Although he had some clues, he couldn't find the back mountain. He didn't know where the ninth secret was...
The two wandered slowly, venturing deep into the Baiwan Mountains, and came to a group of lakes.
It was September, and the falling leaves added a touch of melancholy to the landscape. The autumn water was crystal clear, and a weathered, ancient stone tablet stood out on the lakeshore.
The old man in hemp clothing stood in front of the stone tablet for a moment, then jumped into the lake. After searching for a while, he came out disappointed and then embarked on his journey to find the lake, walking through the Million Mountains.
Ye Fan carefully examined the stone tablet but found nothing, so he followed the old man again.
The forest was quiet, time passed without a trace, a moment felt like Eternal. The trees were covered with dense grass and thorns, and the forest path seemed to have no end, sending chills down one's spine.
"Brother, what exactly are you looking for?" After walking for hundreds of miles, Ye Fan finally couldn't help but ask the old man in hemp clothing.
The old man was unfathomable; Ye Fan couldn't fathom his depth. He had previously given him some pointers, informing him that the main peak contained Deity-Deliverance Art that would likely bring misfortune if he went there.
It was precisely because of this that Ye Fan learned the hidden truth of the Qin Sect. The current Jade Green King had fallen into it and been converted by the secret technique, which was truly terrifying.
"I am seeking a destiny of immortality, but alas... it is something that cannot be sought but only encountered by chance. It seems I have little hope." The old man in hemp robes sighed softly, a complex emotion in his eyes.
" Qinling... a chance encounter with immortals? Brother, are you looking for the Immortal Transformation Pool? Is there really a chance encounter with immortals in there?" Ye Fan asked in surprise.
The old man had been searching for a lake these past few days. He wasn't the only one; many cultivators were also looking for the Immortal Transformation Pool in the Qinling, but Ye Fan didn't pay any attention to it.
Now that the mystery of the word "bing" is almost gone, he cares more about the Nine Secrets than the illusory Immortal Transformation Pond!
"Do you know why the Azure Emperor was able to attain the Dao and become an Emperor in the Post-Desolate Ancient Era, shaking the world and becoming the first person in 100,000 years?" The old man in hemp clothing had a leisurely expression, a very gentle attitude, and a kind face.
"Could it be related to the Immortal Pool?" Ye Fan wondered.
"Initially, there was a great connection. He was born in the Immortal Transformation Pool and received immense benefits." The old man in hemp robes was very mysterious and knew many unknown secrets. His words left people speechless.
"That was a Immortal Pool, and heaven knows what treasures it held. The Azure Emperor was a Green Lotus, which, at its inception, took root in the mud beneath the lake, planted on a piece of Green Copper."
"What?" Ye Fan was startled. He immediately thought of the three Green Copper blocks inside his body, and a lot of information came together.
According to Senior Su, the Green Copper is a fragment of the Immortal Cauldron. The Azure Emperor and the Immortal Cauldron have such a connection, no wonder the Demon Emperor's Mausoleum contains fragments of Green Copper.
" The Immortal Transformation Pool is a true immortal Immortal Pool. From the ancient times to the present, it contains endless divine materials, and even some immortal treasures are immersed in it. In fact, the Green Copper block is also a kind of immortal object. If it is complete, it can compete with the heavens for Fortune. Perhaps there are still a few pieces in the immortal Immortal Pool." The old man in hemp robes had a look of longing in his eyes and sighed.
He then shook his head, his tone slightly changing, and said, " The Cai Clan has great opportunities; some members have even entered the Immortal Transformation Pool..."
Ye Fan's heart skipped a beat. The reason why the Azure Emperor destroyed the Cai Clan might be related to this information. The mystery of 30,000 years ago was immediately blown away. The origin of this Immortal Pool was frightening, perhaps no less than the Nine Secrets.
The old man in hemp robes sighed softly and didn't continue. Instead, he spoke of some other secrets, saying, "At the end of the Immortal Road, who stands at the peak? Upon seeing the Wu Shi Dao, all is in vain. Tens of thousands of years ago, that Great Emperor, wanting to refine an Emperor Bell with immortal treasures, also came to the Immortal Transformation Pool."
"You even know such a secret..."
Ye Fan was startled and couldn't help but scrutinize the old man closely. He was dressed in gray linen clothes, with gray hair, and looked to be in his sixties or seventies. He was in good spirits, but it was hard to say what era he actually lived in.
"I learned this from an elder. Young man, don't look down on me; I'm just an old geezer," the old man in hemp clothing said calmly.
Ye Fan nodded outwardly, but inwardly he didn't believe it at all. This person was at least a Immortal Platform cultivator, and might even be an old emperor. Otherwise, how could he know so many secrets!
Unfortunately, the Qin Sect was too powerful, and even the old man in hemp robes could not enter. He tried to join the inner sect, but was rejected by the elders and returned disappointed. After that, he devoted himself to finding the Immortal Transformation Pool.
This alone tells us that this person is definitely not simple...
The next moment, the old man's eyes shone with chains of order, and the lines in his eyes intertwined as he looked into the depths of the Qinling!
"This is..."
Ye Fan was also extremely astonished. He opened his mouth, his eyes stinging from the oncoming celestial light.
A Seven-Colored Immortal Gold palace, pulled by nine imperial Purple Dragon, rumbled in, releasing Chaos energy and descending with the Mother Qi of All Things, startling all the heavens.
The sight was astonishing: the precious light of the seven kinds of supreme Immortal Gold, the brilliance of the Black-Yellow Source Root, and the richness of the Mother Qi of All Things made this chariot unique in the Cangming, shocking countless cultivators.
A hazy, misty light enveloped everything within the palace, revealing only a figure shrouded in chains of order, radiating the aura of Saint who had transcended worldly concerns, descending upon this realm!
" The Immortal Gold, the Imperial Dragon Qi is transformed into a mount, and the Nine Heavens Purple Jade King, a spiritual being, is driving the chariot. It is either a Saint who has just broken through to the next realm, or another Forbidden Zone Heir has been born!" The old man in hemp robes frowned, his heart was very unsettled.
Such a grand gesture makes it hard not to think of the forbidden zone, especially after Ji Zi was seriously injured, some ancient beings learned some details about the battle of the imperial princes.
Feeling the intense pressure of the sacred Dao, Ye Fan stared intently at the distant chariot, thinking to himself, "This is the radiance of the Source Root of Mother Qi of All Things. Could there be someone in the world who possesses such immortal material?"
He hadn't guessed that Su Yu was the one to be considered. That senior had only just entered the Immortal Platform Second Heaven a few years ago, and it was impossible for him to become a sage in such a short time!
"A realm beyond our comprehension... This is... the ancient Saint!" In the vast mountains, some old Sect Master trembled, every inch of their flesh and blood shook, and even their souls shuddered.
The stronger a person's spiritual power, the more they can sense the immense power present within the hall.
Hearing the exclamations of the sect elders, some of the younger disciples trembled, their eyes blinded by the Immortal Gold light.
Legend has it that the ancient Saint possessed boundless magical powers and were omnipotent. No one could fathom their abilities; they were practically gods walking among the earth, inspiring awe and reverence.
Such a person would be rare even in ancient times, which is why he is revered Saint, admired by all races, and respected for all ages.
In the Qinling, top-tier sects from all walks of life, including Desolate Ancient Family, sacred sites, and Buddhist Sect demon palaces, have emerged. Some elderly people, bathed in the glow of the sunset, pause in the celestial canopy to pay homage to the sages.
Even the current royal family descended. The old emperor of Ancient Hua appeared, riding in a bronze chariot, and flew to the side of the Immortal Palace to accompany him, his attitude very respectful.
In the northwest direction, Ji Biyue and the old Holy Lord of the Ji Family also appeared, accompanied by a group of people. The Eighth Elder of the Ji Family, dressed in a black robe, stood beside the old Holy Lord.
Now, the Ji Family is in turmoil. Ji Haoyue has entered the God and Demon Land and demons, where the Ji Family's Great Saint has set up a trial. If he can pass through it, he will be reborn; if he cannot come out, everything will be in vain.
Riding on the momentum of her victory over the defeated Divine Body, Ji Biyue gained the support of many elders and became a candidate for the Holy Lord of the Ji Family. She was highly sought after, and barring any unforeseen circumstances, she was destined to become the Holy Lord of the Ji Family!
"At this time, another Ancient Saint has actually appeared..." The pearl of the Jiang Family paused in the Void, her beautiful eyes shining with extraordinary light.
Jiang Caixuan's black hair was loose, and her beautiful face was filled with surprise, along with a hint of regret. She whispered, "I wonder how the God King Ancestor is doing?"
In recent years, ancient sages have appeared one after another: the Victorious Fighting Buddha of the Western Desert, the Old Madman of Tianxuan, the master behind the Green Lotus Imperial Dynasty, the ancient ancestor of the Ji Family, and now another one has appeared, possessing such a precious Saint Weapon!
Beside her were Jiang Yifei and Jiang Yichen. The young master of the Jiang family remained expressionless, but a glint of malice flashed in his eyes. He kept a certain distance from Jiang Yichen.
In the void, an old man's brow furrowed slightly, his expression changing slightly, before he regained his composure, seemingly unconcerned...
Thump!
On the horizon, colorful clouds burst forth, celestial light soared to the heavens, and nine dragons pulled the palace, making it appear even more sacred and peaceful.
Shi Zhongyu sat upright in the Immortal Gold Palace, facing the assembled Holy Lord with an unchanging expression, remaining calm and composed.
Many people know him; he is the invincible Holy Lord of the Nine Heavens Purple Jade King, and his fame is immense.
The Silver Moon hung high, and countless mountains fell silent. Everyone retreated, leaving only the Holy Lord to accompany them, occupying the sky.
