Now, with the water overflowing and the two tribulations descending simultaneously, the Dao Flower within his Immortal Platform shines even brighter, surrounded by wisps of Chaos light, like a celestial flower, magnificent and mysterious.
After circulating Purple Mansion inner energy for thirty-six cycles, Su Yu stood up, staring intently at the ruined gate ahead, his eyes flashing with a sharp light, wanting to find out what was going on.
He couldn't enter the Immortal Pass, but the oppressive aura outside the city had lessened considerably, as the Lotus Platform Demon Jar meant it wasn't a forbidden area.
"Sword in hand, mounted on horseback, unleashing a rain of ghosts; white bones piled high, birds startled into flight; the mortal world surged like a tide, people flowed like water; alas, how many return from the Immortal Road!"
The twelve-petaled lotus platform floated in the air. Su Yu sighed softly, recalling the scene of the Road to Immortality.
The Supreme Beings were merely latecomers; before their emergence, countless cultivators had already rushed headlong down the Road to Immortality.
However, they couldn't even withstand the Immortal Spirit mark, and could only become the white bones before the Immortal Pass, lying there as corpses.
Most of the remains here are the bones of Saint who have lost their essence, and there are even broken remains of Great Saint!
Su Yu walked for over a hundred meters without finding a single ancient artifact containing Dao patterns. Many Saint Weapon had crumbled, covered in rust from the erosion of time, their internal patterns long since obliterated, rendering them ordinary objects with little value.
The fields are strewn with pale, skeletal remains; the heavens seem to crumble, and the sun shines dimly.
Time flowed by like water. Su Yu walked silently along the Bone Path and happened to encounter a broken ancient artifact, within which remained a fragment of divine consciousness.
It was a mournful sigh, filled with despair:
"I have seen immortals in this world, but the Immortal Pass are difficult to cross. Alas, alas!"
This is a Dao weapon left behind by Quasi-Emperor. It is a divine spear broken in two. However, after millions of years, the spear is mottled and buried in the mud and dust.
The Quasi-Emperor Dao patterns on the weapon were also obliterated, leaving only a mournful cry of despair at the end of the road.
Holding the rusty bronze spear, Su Yu was overwhelmed with sorrow. He began to recite the " Deliverance Scripture," mourning the souls of those who had perished tragically on the Road to Immortality...
After doing all that, he moved on.
He had traveled an unknown amount of time, covering a third of the distance. He was getting closer and closer to the ruined city, and the terrifying killing intent was becoming increasingly fierce, as if it could sever one's soul and tear one's limbs apart—an unparalleled terror.
He stopped there. Even with the blessing of the Emperor's Artifact, it was useless. That pressure touched his soul. The Devouring Heaven Demon Jar and the World-Purifying White Lotus isolated him from the nine layers of killing intent, but the remaining wisp of extreme power was beyond his ability to withstand.
"Going any further would mean certain death!"
Su Yu murmured, gazing at the ancient city, longing to cross this place and enter the Chaos Cave behind the ruined pass.
If he guessed correctly, that was the true Chaos Immortal Land, perhaps nurturing rare treasures, but...
"Those two arrived two thousand years ago. Laozi should have Extreme Dao Emperor Weapon, a primordial spirit at the peak of the Quasi-Emperor, and an imperial body. This immortal city couldn't stop them. Any rare treasures would have fallen into their hands."
Su Yu remained calm and did not press the matter further. He sat cross-legged on the spot, using the overwhelming killing intent to hone his primordial spirit.
Although there are no celestial ingredients here, the Emperor's Hand exudes an eternal and indestructible pressure, which is equivalent to a Shura field for geniuses. It can draw killing intent into their bodies, temper their flesh and soul, and make them flawless...
Chapter 494 The Winds of Change Stir, Trouble Begins in the Northern Plains (8k update, please vote!)
As the year draws to a close and the Sun-Moon pass, time flows like water, and countless threads of cause and effect quietly emerge, like the accumulation that heralds the beginning of a golden age.
Central Province, the Yin-Yang Divine City.
This is the pure land of the Yin-Yang Sect. From afar, one can see dragon energy rising, auspicious colors shining everywhere, and pure white mist spreading, exuding a transcendent Daoist charm.
A Big Dragon coiled in the sky, exuding a majestic aura comparable to that of Great Power.
Many great religions in Central Province did the same, building cities to nurture dragon energy. Over two hundred thousand years, this place has long since become a divine land.
"You've chased me down time and again, this time it's my turn to pay the price!" Ye Fan sneered, his eyes revealing an undisguised murderous intent.
He formed hand seals and activated the Origin Heaven Divine Formation.
From the four directions—east, west, south, and north—a dragon's roar resounded, and countless runes appeared, activating the earth's veins.
Ye Fan was very patient. He spent a full half month painstakingly studying the layout and imprinting countless runes on the earth to set up an unparalleled Origin Heaven Divine Formation.
This formation is incredibly profound, trapping the entire city within it. It draws upon the terrain, the power of the stars, and the ancient dragon energy.
In an instant, ten thousand dragons roared, and eighty-one underground dragon veins rose up, completely changing this land.
With the blessing of dragon energy, Ye Fan, who had just entered the Immortal Platform Secret Realm, Sacred Body able to fight against the Holy Lord. He soared above the world and directly entered the Yin-Yang Divine City, unleashing an earth-shattering massacre.
Half a day later, half of the Yin-Yang Divine City was shattered, and a red and black ancient mirror hung high between heaven and earth, fixing the endless dragon energy and preventing the Yin-Yang Pure Land from being destroyed.
"You little beast, the Yin-Yang Sect Undying let you go!" The Supreme Elder roared as he chased out of the ruins, his hatred reaching its peak.
Upon seeing the Inherited Saint Weapon appear, Ye Fan remained fearless. He let out a soft shout, and a plain, mottled, and old bronze sword appeared in his hand.
As the ancient sword was swung, stimulated by the sacred pressure of the Yin- Yin-Yang Mirror, it also unleashed boundless sacred power, terrifying beyond compare, showing no sign of being at a disadvantage.
Two ancient artifacts, clashing like the Sun-Moon, collided, causing the winds and clouds to reverse, the Sun-Moon to lose their luster, and a great catastrophe to begin.
The Yin-Yang Sect suffered countless casualties. The city, which was already only half intact, collapsed with a roar, unable to withstand the collision of the two holy powers, and exploded.
At this moment, the Yin-Yang Sect members wept bitterly, cursing Ye Fan incessantly, hoping that the Supreme Elder would annihilate him...
Ultimately, the news spread that the Yin-Yang Divine City had shattered, while the Sacred Body escaped unscathed. He later reappeared in the Eastern Wasteland, drinking with the successors of the Ten Great Places of Romance, displaying the demeanor of a master.
This incident has tarnished the reputation of the younger generation.
Inside the Yaoguang Holy Land, the Holy Yaoguang Holy Son remained calm. In recent years, he had kept a low profile and concealed all his brilliance, which drew criticism from many, but he remained unmoved.
Upon hearing the news of the Sacred Body, the Yaoguang Holy Son opened and closed his eyes, his gaze complex.
He wasn't thinking about Ye Fan, but about that person. He didn't understand why that person would do this—giving him the secret technique, yet then ignoring him completely...
"How could he be so strong? He was clearly a cripple back then, why..." In a cold, gloomy tomb, Li Xiaoman's expression was indifferent, her fair fingers clenched tightly, her heart was far from calm.
In another large tomb, Hua Yunfei finished devouring the essence of an Ancient Emperor. He looked towards the Eastern Wasteland, lost in thought. The Source Arts was such a mysterious and profound thing, yet it possessed such great power, which amazed him.
However, he didn't care much. The Source Arts had great limitations, and it would become ineffective once the Dragon Qi was depleted. It couldn't be considered as a combat power of the same level, and it was useless to rely on this to compete for supremacy on the Emperor's Road!
In another part of Central Province, an earth-shattering battle began, with Yin Tiande Southern Demon engaging in a bloodbath.
The former has made extremely rapid progress and is already close to the Holy Lord Realm. Moreover, he has received Laozi's inheritance. His Taiqing Sacred Art is unparalleled, making him seem like an ancient Sect Master. His every move exudes Daoist charm and an invincible aura.
On the Fuzhou City, two figures were locked in a fierce battle, their crystalline divine blood constantly spilling out, shimmering with iridescent light under the sunlight.
Looking at Qi Lin, who had revealed his true form as a celestial demon, Yin Tiande remained calm. He formed a hand seal, and three streams of pure energy flew out from above his head.
The moment " One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones " was activated, it possessed the power to tear apart heaven and earth. Three avatars appeared, and the four of them combined their strength to unleash an invincible attack...
Qi Lin was no match for the enemy and bled on the spot. He only managed to escape by using the Heavenly Demon Secret Technique, and he almost perished.
With the appearance of the Ziwei cultivators, a collision between the two imperial stars is inevitable.
This clash among the younger generation was merely the beginning; the outcome was clear: Southern Demon, hailed as the number one prodigy of the Big Dipper, was defeated, leaving many Big Dipper cultivators disappointed and unwilling to accept it.
"Where is the Eastern Celestial Master? Where is the Central Emperor, who is hailed as invincible in the Central Province? If even one of them were here, what would our Big Dipper fear from the Ziwei!"
Some people went directly to the Qishi Mansion and the Chaos Palace, hoping to summon these two to fight Yin Tiande, but the sealed invitations disappeared without a trace, and there was no follow-up...
In the Northern Region of the Eastern Wilderness, the afterglow of the setting sun spread across the sky, and patches of orange-gold clouds reflected on Purple Mountain, shimmering and refracting countless rays of light.
This ancient land possesses a unique enchantment; its dark purple mountains rise majestically, stretching endlessly before you, shrouded in mystery.
From afar, this Demon Mountain resembles nine Purple Dragon roaring at the Sun-Moon, majestic and imposing, with the power to part the clouds and pierce the moon...
Inside the Ancient Emperor Mountain, the Innate Sacred Body Dao Embryo avatar sat cross-legged before the stone scripture, immersed in a dream.
His long black hair cascaded down his shoulders, and he was surrounded by crimson clouds, exuding a rich fragrance of Divine Medicine. A faint phoenix cry could be heard, chirping and dancing, making the palace incredibly fragrant, like a fairyland.
Suddenly, the black-robed youth opened and closed his eyes, purple Dao patterns flowing within them. His two pupils transformed into innate runes, terrifying beyond compare, like a manifestation of the laws of time, causing the surrounding Dao to pause for a moment.
"The complete Nine Secrets: Lin'!"
Shi Ming carefully considered the profound mysteries of the Nine Secrets. His forehead was crystal clear, flowing with countless strands of purple light, blending with this world.
He did not possess a complete Innate Sacred Body Dao Embryo; his bloodline had flaws. Although he was comparable to Ancient Emperor, he was far inferior to Chaos Body.
However, under the blessing of the "Lin" secret technique within the Divine Forbidden Domain, his internal magical power surged, merging with the Great Dao, Ultimate Sublimation and entering a brand new world...
The black-haired youth stood up, bowed deeply to the mountain wall in front of the stone scripture, then waved his sleeve, summoning the Calamity Blue Gold Sword, and began to carve it on a nearby purple stone.
This time, he started from the Space Great Dao, moving from afar to near, discovering the extraordinary in the ordinary.
After carving ten murals, the patterns shifted, instantly becoming mysterious and complex, brimming with Daoist charm and sword light. Each thread was a spatial sword light, enough to annihilate Great Accomplishment King.
The Way of Void, the Law of Annihilation, the Five Elements Great Escape, the Technique of Realm Annihilation, the Taichu Abyss, the Manipulation of Heaven and Earth and Earth, the Golden Light Traversing the Earth —all sorts of mysterious and divine powers appear, hidden within these sword diagrams, radiating terrifying sword light.
These murals are incredibly dazzling, translucent and shimmering, shrouded in a Chaos mist, emitting thousands of auspicious rays and countless strands of divine light, dazzling and captivating, with countless Daoist auras surging forth, containing a terrifying black light.
In a sense, this is not an ordinary secret pattern, but a spatial killing array. If one were to mistakenly enter it, even ancient sages would perish.
Immediately, Shi Ming's sword tip shifted, the original sky-piercing momentum subsided, the brilliance disappeared, and it exuded a simple and unadorned charm.
His gaze was calm as he thrust his sword horizontally, creating a wisp of Dao pattern.
"Buzz!"
In an instant, purple mist swirled and smoke billowed out, overflowing from the patterns of time, impossible to conceal. The terrifying aura of time swept across the sky, instantly filling the stone palace.
The young man's face was calm and composed as he focused on writing, etching his understanding of the Time Great Dao.
The purple-gold Dao patterns flowed out continuously, gradually losing their luster and becoming ordinary and unremarkable, their sharpness concealed, as if carved by a child, showing no power.
After an unknown amount of time, Shi Ming thrust his sword forward, leaving a mark on the end—a mysterious rune, and the image of a figure with a large bell on its head...
Thirty-six secret patterns appeared on the stone wall. The first eighteen spatial Dao diagrams shone brightly. The patterns were like shattered diamonds, with sword-like strokes that soared into the sky, exuding a terrifying pressure.
The last eighteen murals depict the laws of time, while the first nine murals shimmer with purple-gold light, exuding unparalleled holiness and peace, and flowing with Chaos light.
The last nine murals are simple and natural, as if drawn casually by children at play, yet they possess a divine and ingenious charm. The profound and boundless Daoist power contained within them is like a vast ocean; if it were to pour out, it could turn black hair into snow and rosy cheeks into withered bones.
Shi Ming withdrew his Dao weapon and quietly gazed at the secret patterns. His hands flew, casting a series of hand seals to connect the stone carvings into a magnificent array that rotated Immortal of the Foreign Realm in the Void.
After several dozen breaths, the originally strange wall carvings became simple and natural, with a restrained luster, unremarkable, imprinted on the purple mountain body.
"What is Wu Shi? What is Wuzhong? Wu Shi and Wuzhong, these are the essence of the Spacetime Great Dao. Such is the Dao Fruit, untraceable. Shi Ming is willing to spread the Dao to Great Emperor Wushi!"
Shi Ming's expression softened, a smile playing on his lips, as he carved his heartfelt thoughts beside the stone scripture.
This time, he experienced a great dream in which he obtained the secret of the character "Lin" and also brought out the Divine Phoenix Immortal Medicine.
In essence, he was nothing more than an opportunist who, by relying on the trust of the deity of the Beginningless Bell, obtained the Wu Shi Token and thereby initiated the Purple Mountain inheritance.
He has now obtained everything inherited from Purple Mountain and can freely enter and exit the Chaos Immortal Land in the Wushi Scripture.
"The next Innate Sacred Body Dao Embryo will have to wait another 300,000 years. I wonder if the Chaos Dao Embryo can inherit the Wu Shi Dao Lineage!" Shi Ming's eyes were deep, his thoughts were in turmoil, and then he turned and left.
In this Lifetime, he Dragon Transformation, receiving generous gifts from his predecessors. He will surely repay everything in the future!
The ancient path was quiet and secluded. A beam of crystalline purple light pierced through the air, and the young man in black robes stepped onto the passage and flew towards the outside world.
