Hearing Su Yu's words from within the stone vein, Zhang Lin nodded hesitantly, then said with some relief, "That's good, she didn't choose the wrong person."
"One of your descendants has also emerged with the potential to become King Physique. He may not become Great Saint, but he should have no problem becoming Saint King. Would you like to meet him?" Looking at this pitiful man, Su Yu calmly uttered a message that was half true and half false.
Although the King Physique is real, it is King Physique bloodline potion refined from the Eternal Kingdom.
This special potion is extremely valuable; generally, only three King Physique can refine a single bloodline potion. The Eternal Civilization is skilled at raising animals to extract blood, so the loss is lower, but the price is still very high, enough to make Saint feel the pinch.
The King Physique bloodline of Zhang Lin's descendants was specially approved by Su Yu, and their status entered the Tai Shi stage. Moreover, he also specially bestowed upon them an Emperor Scripture.
The reasons for doing this include Yang Yi's influence, and also out of respect for the sage who, in the original timeline, destroyed the Spirit Valley before his death...
Chapter 555 Forbidden Artifact, Intending to Connect with the Divine Embryo of Jade Lake
In the dim light of the earth's veins, the Fifth Generation Source Heavenly Master's gaze shifted, landing on the stone wall inscribed with delicate characters. He was filled with mixed emotions, unsure of what to say.
Over the years, Ye Fan had visited this place and met him twice, which allowed him to learn a lot about the outside world, including about his descendants.
Those people lived well, but no truly powerful individuals emerged from their ranks.
Ten years is but a blink of an eye; not even a generation can grow up, so how could a King Physique possibly emerge...?
Zhang Lin understood the specific reasons, and could only express his gratitude silently.
"When I was out of my mind, I once obtained a rare treasure of extremely high status, which was very likely forged by the Undying Heavenly Emperor..." Zhang Lin spoke softly, his eyes revealing a carefree attitude that seemed to have seen through life and death, a transcendent charm that was not concealed by his terrifying appearance.
With a flick of its large, red-haired hand, a surge of dark light erupted, and eighty-one black banners rose up, fluttering in the air and emanating powerful energy.
This is the strongest ancient treasure of the guardians of Ancient Emperor Mountain. It was personally refined by the Undying Heavenly Emperor of that time, and is composed of eighty-one banners, possessing unparalleled Ancient Emperor power.
Ninety thousand years ago, the Great Emperor Wushi, eliminating a large number of the Heavenly Emperor's generals. This forbidden artifact was also lost, and came into the possession of Zhang Lin, who had lost his will...
Although time is merciless and the banner is incomplete due to its antiquity, it was forged by Ancient Emperor and still possesses Immortal of the Foreign Realm divinity, surrounded by dark light that blocks sound waves.
The eighty-one large flags were translucent and deep, surrounded by a dark light, and had fine cracks on them, clearly indicating that they could not last long.
They are indeed engraved with Ancient Emperor patterns, but they are not made of immortal materials such as Phoenix Blood Red Gold, or the Mother Qi of All Things. At most, they can be used once or twice, after which they will self-destruct and become the embers of time.
Su Yu looked at the person in front of him quietly, sighing inwardly. After all, he was still the same person he remembered. What a pity for such a talented person.
"The eighty-one banners can destroy the heavens and the earth once; you can decide when to use them. However, they are about to collapse after being brought out and cannot last long."
Zhang Lin withdrew his divine imprint, and the dark banner suddenly shrank, returning to its original state, transforming into a small, crystal-clear, deep black banner, no bigger than the palm of his hand, which floated in front of Su Yu, exuding a dreamlike aura.
Having done all this, the Fifth Generation Source Heavenly Master's eyes dimmed, as if he had made a decision, and he said to Su Yu, "Help me find liberation. My wish has been fulfilled, and I no longer wish to live in a daze."
As he spoke, a grayish-white light clouded Zhang Lin's eyes, and his pupils gradually blurred, clearly indicating that he was already contemplating death.
Actually, he wanted to see Yang Yi one last time.
However, that would affect the two of them now, so he didn't say anything...
"Your calamity originates from the Underworld, stemming from a curse cast by the Supreme using a celestial artifact!" Su Yu reached out, took the small black flag into his palm, and said calmly.
"Actually, I have some guesses about these things, but they're meaningless. Even if it's the suppression by Extreme Dao Emperor Weapon, it's just to keep me rational."
Zhang Lin glanced at his grotesque appearance and let out a bitter laugh, "These strange things have robbed me of my mind, but they've also allowed me to survive. There's no way to undo it... Perhaps the legendary Divine Flower can change things... What a pity..."
At this point, Zhang Lin stopped speaking. He had reached the Saint level in cultivation and had a deep understanding of this world, knowing many ancient secrets.
The more you know, the clearer your understanding becomes, the more powerless you feel.
The Human Origin Fruit and the Earth Life Fruit are traceable and are rare treasures among stones. They are products of different stages in the evolution of the same divine object. The first two fruits can be found in the world, and the Earth Life Fruit is not much worse than the Immortal Medicine.
The Divine Flower is different; this wondrous flower doesn't even exist in this realm, but only grows in the Immortal Realm.
In the past, all those who sought the Divine Flower, including the fourth-generation Source Heavenly Master, never truly obtained it, leaving behind only ethereal legends.
Such celestial treasures capable of bringing the dead back to life are never seen, for they only grow in the Immortal Realm. Legend has it that when the Earth Life Fruit evolves into the Heavenly Mandate Fruit, it is accompanied by a flower called the Divine Life Flower...
Seeing the previous Source Heavenly Master in such a state, Su Yu stroked the Heavenly Emperor's forbidden artifact, feeling a similar sadness.
He is very strong now, capable of slaying Great Saint. If all his Dao Fruit were to be unified, he could be called invincible below the Quasi-Emperor level, enough to sweep away all cultivators of the same level.
However, he was powerless against the curses inflicted by several Supreme using celestial artifacts.
Using the Immortal Sword to suppress the soul and freeze that moment would grant Zhang Lin a brief moment of brilliance, allowing him to escape this state. However, he would still die that way!
Because time is irreversible, Zhang Lin exists in the world forever. Once he regains his senses, the past years will overwhelm him and instantly destroy him, unless someone can touch the past.
In the original timeline, Ye Fan attained the Heavenly Emperor's body and rescued Zhang Ziling, who had been reduced to Desolate Slave.
That backlash of time lasted only 6,500 years, nothing to the Heavenly Emperor, who could easily restore the lifespan of the lost.
Zhang Lin's imprisonment for ten thousand years was more difficult than Zhang Ziling's, and Su Yu also failed to become the Heavenly Emperor.
The moonlight spread out, and the black-haired man continued walking forward, leaving Zhang Lin with a message.
" The Road to Immortality will soon open, and you will meet immortals in this Lifetime. Perhaps then there will be a turning point, and everything will still have a chance to turn around."
"To become an immortal..."
A brilliant light shone in Zhang Lin's eyes, clearly moved by those two words, and then the spark of life flickered uncertainly.
If this was said by the future Chaos Heavenly Emperor, he would believe it!
Passing through the magnificent palace and the jade steps, Su Yu returned to the Wu Shi Stone Palace and sat silently in Wushi Dao Platform.
This is a forbidden area. Without the Emperor's Jade, no living being can enter. Otherwise, they will all suffer the onslaught of the Chaos Waterfall, and Quasi-Emperor will perish.
Su Yu did not bring the Imperial Jade; instead, he wore a token at his waist, which signified his status as the Lord of Purple Mountain.
As time passed, he came to know everything about this forbidden land, including the Gu Tianshu sealed within the Divine Source.
On the vast Dao Platform, countless Chaos wisps of mist flowed, intertwining with a pattern of the Great Dao. The pressure was like a prison. This was the Dao Law left behind by the Heavenly Emperor. Once it was revived, its power would be enough to pierce through the Six Realms and sweep across the present, past, and future. Even imperial artifacts could not stop it.
Su Yu sat cross-legged on the Dao platform, silently experiencing the state of mind of the Great Emperor Wushi in the past.
Around him, one after another, symbols of the Great Dao shone, imprinting themselves into the Void, like Taiyang, dazzling and radiant, flowing with a majestic Daoist aura, as if they were one with this great world.
Three days later, Su Yu stood up, pondered for a long time, and then drifted away. Before leaving, he handed over a letter to Yang Yi and disappeared into the boundless Northern Region.
He didn't care about Zhang Lin and Yang Yi's past.
That Jade Lake Fairy wasn't the Heavenly Empress; she wasn't willing to give up everything for a position second only to the Emperor...
After the standoff at the Reincarnation Sea, most of the royal family moved away, many races were wiped out, and the remaining weaker races also left.
The Northern Region are now desolate; everything from the past can never be recovered.
The years in the Divine City left a deep impression on Su Yu; the memories of cutting out the Divine Medicine seed and marrying Yao Xi seemed like yesterday.
Now the Divine City is rising again. Entering its heart, the world is vast and few know of it. A new generation replaces the old, and most of those from the past have departed.
Those former holy sons and daughters have become Sect Master of their respective sects, ruling over their respective regions, and no longer come here specifically.
Su Yu concealed his aura and walked through the mortal world like a noble young master newly arrived in the world, with impeccable manners and flawless appearance, giving people a very ethereal feeling.
" The Chaos Young Emperor!" someone exclaimed, trembling with fear.
Now, his portrait is naturally held by various powerful forces, so it's not surprising that some people recognize him.
The news caused a sensation in the Eastern Wasteland, and all directions were shocked. The people of the Divine City held this Lord of West Kunlun in high esteem, and an old Saint King appeared to invite Su Yu to take a seat.
"The number one bandit, I never expected you to have reached this level!" Su Yu smiled; he and the other party had some past grievances.
In the past, Tu Tian and Tu Fei were killed by him in order to seize the body of the Devouring Heaven Demon Jar. After this incident, the First Bandit secretly searched for some clues, but later found that the Primordial Ancestral King was involved. Due to the deep taboo surrounding it, he automatically forgot about that cause and effect.
Now that they have met again, Su Yu's attitude is very gentle. He does not dwell on the past, drinks a cup of wine with the old man, and laughs off all the past events. Then he disappears into the mortal world. In a single step, he transcends time and space. This is an astonishing escape technique that surpasses even the understanding of Saint King.
In the Jade Lake Sacred Land, the former holy maiden has become the Queen Mother of the West, growing even more beautiful. Her pair of clear, autumn-water eyes are still bright, but they have been tinged with the marks of time, and she exudes an air of nobility and authority that makes people dare not harbor any thoughts of disrespect.
"Greetings, Lord of Chaos!"
A melodious, clear voice rang out, and the Jade Lake Saintess bowed, her Tingting figure embodying beauty itself.
This woman was once one of the most beautiful women in the Eastern Wasteland.
When Su Yu first began cultivating, he wanted to capture her alive and take her back to warm his bed. Later, their paths diverged, and many things happened, causing their karmic connection to weaken. They hadn't seen each other for a long time...
Especially after the other party's aunt became Su Yu's concubine, the possibility of a relationship between the two became even lower.
Su Yu also passed through that period of indulging in the pleasures of the land and did not engage in any forced abduction, which was inherently wrong.
Of course, although he didn't target the Jade Lake Saintess, he did ambush the former Queen Mother of the West. That high-ranking woman, who was arguably the most powerful in the Eastern Wasteland, eventually entered Kunlun...
"Long time no see, you've become a saint too!" Su Yu said with a gentle smile.
The Jade Lake Saintess stood to one side, her beautiful eyes sparkling, her smile enchanting, as she welcomed Su Yu inside.
Although she has achieved sainthood, she is still quite far behind Ye Fan, and has fallen far behind the top-tier geniuses...
Meanwhile, Weiwei, the Lord of Yaoguang, has already reached the Seventh Heaven of the Saint Realm in recent years, surpassing others and beginning to break through the barrier of Saint King. Compared to her, the Jade Lake Saintess is much slower.
Now that things have come to this, many past secrets have become clear. Yao Xi and Zixia, these two former saintesses, have long since become saints, and their cultivation is improving extremely rapidly. Zixia has already entered the Saint King Realm.
In the past few years, Zixia returned to the Purple Mansion Holy Land and was honored as the Purple Mansion Holy Lord Holy Lord, and the Purple Mansion Holy Land also received many benefits.
With the wisdom of the Jade Lake Saintess, she naturally understood everything that had happened.
Cao Yusheng risked his life to save her and bestowed upon her the incomplete sacred artifact, but all of this was ultimately a prelude to obtaining her. This Chaos Body may have already set his sights on her.
However, just as she was about to refuse him outright, he vanished without a trace, like a gust of wind, and with incredible speed became a Saint Realm figure, surpassing Holy Lord.
At that time, the Jade Lake Saintess was wavering in her heart and felt a little longing for him, but she still disliked Su Yu's large number of concubines, and besides, none of the previous Jade Lake Saintess had ever married outside the palace...
After their first encounter at the Immortal Transformation Pool in the Qinling, the two parted ways. Now, only a few decades have passed since they last met, and everything has changed.
She surpassed numerous prodigies, achieving sainthood in the Eastern Wasteland, while her opponent illuminated several star regions, directly confronting the ancestral saint of the Ancient Emperor Clans, and ultimately even provoking the forbidden zones to intervene, resulting in Supreme confrontation.
He is destined to attain enlightenment.
This is how all living beings perceive the Chaos Body... This has also stirred the hearts of many contemporary saintesses.
The Chaos Young Emperor, who sought Yao Xi and abducted Zixia, had a long list of misdeeds and a bad reputation.
However, this lecherous man did not make a move on the other saintesses, clearly indicating that he did not fancy them, and this contempt bothered them greatly.
The competitive spirit among women...
The Jade Lake Saintess naturally wouldn't think that way, but facing the rising Chaos Young Emperor, she sometimes felt a sense of bewilderment. If she had taken the initiative back then, it seemed that her future path would have been much easier.
Although he's a kept man.
But... being a kept man is really delicious.
Not to mention he's the future Chaos Heavenly Emperor's kept man, saving people Douluo 1.
