"I can't be sure either. As I understand it, you only fought his mark. However, this mountain is very unusual. It's called the Imperishable Peak. Perhaps it really can affect the balance of time, forcibly allowing you to witness the end of the Immortal Ancient Era and encounter He Wushuang's true form."
Shi Hao lowered his head, looking at the fifth Reincarnation Seal on his palm. The truth would only be fully understood when he met He Wushuang.
Xiao Ye's deduction leans more towards the idea that Shi Hao really did arrive in the Immortal Ancient and fight He Wushuang.
However, it wasn't as tragic as depicted; the two ultimately perished together.
Or perhaps both sides fought to the death, but He Wushuang had Immortal of the Foreign Realm on his side who saved him.
The original text describes how several Immortal of the Foreign Realm intervened to open the Imperishable Peak, which is why He Wushuang was able to obtain the Indestructible Scripture. He Wushuang himself could not have opened the Imperishable Peak on his own.
In addition, the Immortal King of the Foreign Realm Kui Huo, who appears in the story, is the Immortal King of the Foreign Realm (the weapon seal) who was killed by Shi Hao after he became king and rushed into the Foreign Realm to kill the Scarlet King.
[In the end, an Immortal King of the Foreign Realm was pierced through by him, his weapon, a large seal, was shattered by the impact, and finally, he was blasted apart by a fist imprint from Shi Hao's true form.]
A minor character in the Quasi-Immortal King of the Foreign Realm.
When Shi Hao, Mortal World Immortal, infiltrated the Foreign Realm, he killed a middle-aged man with blond hair who was the son of the Immortal King of the Foreign Realm.
In the original work, only two Quasi-Immortal King of the Foreign Realm were described: one was him, and the other was faceless, which was just a large paw.
Then Gu Ancestor appeared, trying to cover for Shi Hao, and then sighed and said that he didn't expect Number Ten to be so strong, and that he shouldn't have come out.
You should all be familiar with this plot.
Writing fanfiction with original characters isn't very good; Xiao Ye's later works are basically all minor characters from the original story.
If there's really no other way, add a name.
The name Kui Huo was also conceived after considering the names of kings from the Foreign Realm.
An Lan, Yu Tuo, Kundi, Wu Shang, Luomo, Qu Chong.
The Red-Haired Ancestor was quite skilled at naming children.
If there were a True Immortal or Immortal of the Foreign Realm named Zhang or Liu, their prestige would immediately drop.
Chapter 820 The Tribulation Sword Immortal
The skull was snow-white and broken, with a sword mark on the top of its head; the wound was gruesome.
Over the long course of time, even divine gold will lose its essence and become mortal, let alone a piece of gold. The marks of wind and frost, the erosion of time, have left it pitted and riddled with honeycomb-like holes, and it is already on the verge of complete rot.
"Humans are not human, I am not myself, different scenes in the same place, is it the dream of Lunhui? Or something else?" the young man murmured to himself, tears streaming down his face, filled with melancholy, regret, confusion, and reminiscence.
The world was shattered, ancient peaks collapsed, and everything changed.
Shi Hao stood there, motionless, as if he had truly experienced a Lunhui.
All that has happened before is like a past life.
The first half of that Lifetime was beautiful and sacred. Born in the Garden of Longevity, he became a disciple of the Immortal King and merged with the nascent seed of the universe, shining brightly among the younger generation.
What followed were cruel, dark years, with friends and family dying one after another, and one heartbreaking tragedy after another...
To this day, his body still trembles slightly, and his spirit is wounded.
Shi Hao held the head in his hands, as if looking at another version of himself. In the "experience" just now, he had died once in battle, and with a final punch filled with anger and resentment, he pierced through He Wushuang's forehead bone, killing him instantly.
He himself was also severed from the brow by the opponent's finger sword, his primordial spirit destroyed, and they both perished here.
This snow-white skull was exactly the same as the sword wound in his memory; just looking at it made Shi Hao's forehead ache.
On the ground, golden Heavenly Horned Ant revived, their bodies glowing, and climbed onto Shi Hao's shoulder.
At this moment, a special connection seemed to be formed between the youth, the skull, the Heavenly Horned Ant, and the small ant that had just pushed the skull away...
"Cause and effect..."
Not far away, Su Yu whispered, her eyes shining brightly.
From his perspective, the mortal ant was imbued with a trace of the Great Dao's fortune, and from nothing, it was born with the potential for cultivation—truly wondrous.
The wind howled across the land. The former battlefield was desolate and lifeless, devoid of vegetation, like a deathly graveyard.
Su Yu strode over, the cold wind howling, lifting his silver hair and revealing the silver mark on his forehead.
He reunited with Shi Hao and Heavenly Horned Ant.
Emerging from nothingness, without any trace, Shi Hao suddenly saw a figure, and his body tensed.
He didn't recognize the creature before him, but he felt a faint sense of oppression, which stirred his soul as if a celestial being had descended.
"I am the master of the Immortal Palace. In the Immortal Ancient Realm, one of my avatars left the Shangqing Inscription there," Su Yu said.
Upon hearing this, Shi Hao was greatly alarmed, and immediately thought of the supreme being who suppressed the Immortal of the Foreign Realm Foreign Realm and rode the Peacock Ghost Immortal during the Great Red Heaven Incident.
"An Longevity being..." He felt his throat go dry and was somewhat incredulous that he could actually encounter such a being. He immediately bowed deeply in worship.
"Did you drink the wine from the Immortal Ancient Era before coming here?" Su Yu asked.
Shi Hao was taken aback, hesitated slightly, and after a moment of silence, chose to confess.
Some time ago, he ventured into an ancient realm and encountered a woman who appeared to be True Immortal in a corner of a dilapidated palace.
The latter contains a wine pot filled with fine wine, its light flowing eternally.
"According to that woman, the wine contained an entire Immortal Ancient Era, and I... drank a portion of it," Shi Hao said.
As he spoke, he inexplicably felt a sense of pressure, because what he said was too absurd and unconvincing.
After Shi Hao finished recounting his experiences, Su Yu's eyes flickered slightly. He knew less about Shi Hao's story, and they couldn't corroborate each other's accounts.
Where is the Scarlet King?
Where is the woman in white?
"Will there be any unexpected events when consuming the elixir?" he asked.
Shi Hao shook his head, indicating that the whole process was very calm. Only when he touched the wine pot did his body start to crack, but he overcame it.
"Apart from that, nothing has changed."
"What happened eons ago? The Scarlet King failed to intervene..." Su Yu pondered, then smiled, gazing towards the Foreign Realm, and murmured to himself, "Will that Time Ancestral Beast undergo rebirth and rebuild itself?"
Without further thought, Su Yu stepped forward, preparing to break the seal on this place.
"Was everything just now a dream, or Lunhui reincarnation... Immortal Slaying Technique, All Laws Return to Nothingness..." Shi Hao was still pondering, communicating telepathically with the Heavenly Horned Ant.
The Heavenly Horned Ant shook its head. If this were a real scene, it would take an incredibly powerful method to create it.
" The Immortal Slaying Technique? Is that what you mean?"
Su Yu slightly raised his right hand, and a mysterious power spread out. With A Will Eternal, he Tongtian, and the killing sword energy flew out from the beginning of Chaos, terrifying beyond compare.
"It really exists!"
Shi Hao's body trembled, and he shouted excitedly, feeling the familiar ripples of the technique. He had used it when he fought He Wushuang.
The Heavenly Horned Ant's expression changed drastically. Unlike Shi Hao, it had a much higher level of knowledge and knew of the existence of the Immortal Slaying Technique. This was an invincible offensive technique, mastered by very few even in the Foreign Realm. It was a supreme secret method created to kill True Immortal.
It's unbelievable that this person has mastered it.
"Capture a pure-blooded female descendant of the Foreign Realm Imperial Clan, and this technique will be yours... well, not counting the Scarlet King Clan or the Kundi Clan." Su Yu said calmly, not stingy with his immortal techniques.
"Pure-blooded... female descendant..."
Shi Hao was confused. He had never been in contact with the Foreign Realm Imperial Clan before and didn't know what this title represented. But he had a feeling that completing it would be extremely difficult, since it was a mission that could exchange for a celestial technique.
He casually opened a side quest, and with a flick of his sleeve, Su Yu carried the Heavenly Horned Ant and Shi Hao into the mountain range, and then quickly ascended the magnificent Imperishable Peak.
Compared to Immortal Ancient, this place is far more severely damaged. The mountains have been flattened, turning a dark gray color and bearing terrifying bloodstains. Countless years have passed, yet the dark red bloodstains have not faded.
" Indestructible Scripture? Those golden scrolls have disappeared." Shi Hao was also unable to remain calm. He had gone through too many twists and turns to get here. If he found nothing, it would truly be disappointing.
The Heavenly Horned Ant were even more nervous and searched diligently.
This time, it was the Old Heavenly Horned Ant that guided them to this place and gave it a key, saying that it could be used to open the seal.
If the Indestructible Scripture cannot be found, all efforts will be in vain.
Su Yu paid no attention to the two little ones.
With a flick of his sleeve, the ancient land shook, rumbled, and glowed, but no longer brilliantly; it was a dark light, as if it had been corrupted by some terrible force.
"Quack!"
A burst of dark light erupted, and a crow spread its wings, breaking free from the misty light. In this desolate place, in this ancient Burial Ground where heroes were buried, an indescribable ominousness arose.
"The dark crows formed from the gathering of ancient heroic spirits." Su Yu's gaze was profound as he revealed the origin of the crows.
" Great Red Heaven's Tribulation Sword Immortal... you survived and came to this Lifetime!"
The crow's voice was hoarse, bathed in black mist and firelight, as it looked at the intruder, its eyes flashing with divine flames.
"Ah? The Sword Immortal! He's the one who fell from the Immortal Ancient Sword..."
Shi Hao and Heavenly Horned Ant were both taken aback, never expecting that the Great Power beside them would have such a background—an invincible Sword Immortal immortal who opened up a glorious chapter in ancient history.
A terrifying existence, fighting to the death for the title of the Immortal King of the Foreign Realm!
This is simply unimaginable.
"No wonder it could suppress Immortal of the Foreign Realm Foreign Realm; it turns out it was an invincible powerhouse from the Immortal Ancient who made the move." The Heavenly Horned Ant clicked its tongue, its heart filled with excitement.
It had previously been wary of this mysterious Immortal Palace master, and its reluctant greetings were only out of consideration for the other party's pacification of the Crimson Sky Chaos.
Unexpectedly, it encountered an ancient person.
Shi Hao was overwhelmed with emotion, thinking of so many things: the changes in the Sin Province, the shifts in the Immortal Palace's policies...
Previously, his feelings towards the Immortal Palace were complicated, because he knew that it was the Immortal Palace that suppressed the Sin Blood, and he also knew about some of the Immortal Palace's bad deeds in the past.
He firmly believes that the marks left by his ancestors are not sins, but honors!
Now everything is clear: the changes in the Immortal Palace were all caused by one person.
When the topic turned to his Lifetime in the Immortal Ancient Era, Su Yu's face remained calm. With a flick of his wrist, he produced a white bone key, its surface as smooth and warm as mutton fat jade.
He made a hand seal and used the bone key to activate the shattered Imperishable Peak.
As the key flew into the Imperishable Peak, this world underwent a dramatic change. The Sun-Moon alternated, the mountain melted, and divine light and auspicious colors moved, creating an extremely magnificent spectacle.
The crumbling mountain was cracking, and its interior emitted an even more dazzling golden light, like the world's most terrifying volcano cracking in the night. From those cracks, scorching light appeared, looking like molten metal flowing.
