Even if the opponent were at their peak during the Immortal Ancient Era, they wouldn't be able to defeat Immortal King, let alone now, having only crawled out of the Death Realm for a few hundred years, yet they've already reached this level.
Even the Lord of the Hou Clan fell silent, his gaze deep as he stared intently at Su Yu. But as the Lord of the Forbidden Zone, he quickly regained his previous expression.
"I didn't expect you to have reached the level of Ten Fiends. No wonder you dare to act so presumptuously here." He said coldly, a white light flashing in his hand, revealing a pure Ruyu bone tower, ready to be unleashed at any moment to suppress his opponent.
He didn't want to offend the other party, but at this point, if the other party continued to provoke him, then a battle would be unavoidable.
"A mere True Immortal has shown hostility towards me; such punishment is far too lenient."
Su Yu remained indifferent, maintaining the same demeanor he had when he entered the Fallen Immortal Ridge, as if the clan leader here was no different from the previous True Immortal.
Chapter 846 The Curtain Falls, Traces Left for the Future
Nestled in the mountains, a solitary peak bearing the indelible mark of the Scripture of Indestructible Scripture stands proudly, its surface densely covered with Immortal Ancient inscriptions. Countless broken bones lie scattered around it, some still emanating an aura of Xian Dao.
As Su Yu approached, he stopped, his gaze falling upon the dark red demonic soil.
Buried here is an immortal, his body intact, his head lifelike, yet he can no longer rise, alone with death and withered earth.
Those who can become True Immortal but are unaware of forbidden zones easily demonstrate their lack of foundation; otherwise, why would they provoke the forbidden zones?
After a moment of silence, Su Yu's eyes filled with azure light as he looked at the wall carving.
After a day and a night, he finished recording the Indestructible Scripture, combined it with his own teachings, and obtained the complete text. At the same time, he integrated the Indestructible Scripture with his own Dharma and Tao, and gained new insights, reaping considerable benefits.
Then, a golden divine path tore through the sky, the beam shooting upwards towards the Great Red Heaven.
They came as a shadow, they left as a trace; the creatures that trespassed into the Life Forbidden Zone simply vanished...
"Ancient Ancestor, why don't you take him down?" The Golden Hou, whose head had already been reattached, had a gloomy expression and was very unwilling.
The higher a person's status, the more they value dignity. This time, he was trampled into the mud, beheaded, and forced to kneel. Even though he was Longevity Hou, he still couldn't maintain his composure and wanted to go berserk.
"This kind of thug should be beaten to a pulp, just like he was a century ago..." he thought bitterly.
The being described here is the very True Immortal who stormed into this place after the Immortal Ancient. His strength was extraordinary, almost comparable to that of Quasi-Immortal King. He ran rampant without restraint, and even True Immortal in forbidden zones were no match for him and could not stop his advance.
But in the end, the clan leader was born, and no matter how amazing that genius who rose in the early era was, it was useless. With just a few gestures, he killed the opponent's immortal soul and dissipated his true spirit.
Clearly, the Hou Clan leader values this descendant of True Immortal highly; how could anyone else dare to speak like this?
The clan leader, shrouded in Chaos, remained silent, his leaden gray eyes fixed on Su Yu's departing figure, like an Immortal of the Foreign Realm statue.
After a long silence, the Lord of the Forbidden Zone said in a deep voice, "This person carries a heavy burden of karma. Although I can suppress him, I may not be able to kill him, and the consequences could be dire..."
His meaning was clear: he wanted to get rid of Su Yu, but he wasn't sure he could succeed.
That's why he revealed the previous cause and effect, allowing the other party to observe the Indestructible Scripture.
Several potential problems were also eliminated...
In the Great Red Heaven, Su Yu sensed several familiar auras with a thought, one of which was clearly from the same lineage as the Bronze Immortal Palace.
His lips moved slightly, and he looked thoughtfully at Fallen Immortal Ridge, then smiled.
"It seems this beast has figured something out..."
The next moment, Su Yu closed his eyes, his A Will Eternal Tongtian. From the center of his brow, endless immortal light poured out, surging in the Void. The voice of the Great Dao resounded, and the boundless starry sea trembled.
In the endless distance, the four Remnant Immortal, expelled from the forbidden zone, are fleeing.
They witnessed the terrifying scene at Fallen Immortal Ridge, their hearts sinking to the bottom, knowing that this time it was an absolute death trap. Therefore, after being moved out of Fallen Immortal Ridge by the master of the forbidden area a day ago, they fled for their lives, trying to find a safe and hidden place.
Among them, the Immortal Palace Remnant Immortal threw himself into another dilapidated forbidden zone.
This is a forbidden zone created by a being similar to the Lord of the Hou Clan. It existed since the Immortal Ancient Era, but it has now fallen into decline, and its ruler perished long ago...
The other three immortals were also searching for a hiding place.
The master of Fallen Immortal Ridge gave them a glimmer of hope, driving them away before Su Yu could comprehend the Indestructible Scripture. However, he clearly did not expect that Su Yu would only need one day to comprehend it.
The four Remnant Immortal stirred up a great storm after the Immortal Ancient Era, controlling the power of a realm, and no one dared to provoke them.
Because of the existence of darkness, no true Longevity can be born in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.
This seems to be the work of fate; after the Great Devastation that followed the World War, hope was born amidst the annihilation and depletion.
Destroyer, Calamity!
From the Chaotic Ancient Era to the present, the first-rate geniuses born in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths —talents with the potential to become immortals, and even a glimmer of hope to become Immortal King —were ruthlessly annihilated by the Scarlet King of the Foreign Realm across the long River of Time.
There was originally one last seed left, but it broke free amidst the chaos of the heavens, encountered He Wushuang, and perished in the Border Wasteland, failing to grow.
Compared to those nameless ones who have fallen into obscurity, the 'famous ones' of this era are secondary.
Since the Realm Annihilation, four people in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths have come close to becoming immortals, or rather, all of them have become immortals: Ye Qianyu, Mo Wudao, the Demon Venerable, and the Cold Realm Supreme of the Immortal Ancient Realm.
Without exception, they all encountered strange occurrences that prevented the birth of Longevity in this world.
It was against this backdrop that the Immortal Palace Remnant Immortal and others rose to power.
For countless ages, their true forms have never appeared, yet the legacy they left behind is enough to command the Nine Heavens —how magnificent!
But today, their story comes to an end.
A surge of celestial light appeared. Su Yu remained silent as four chains flew out from between his brows, snatching four crippled immortals from the endless Void. No one knew what kind of great divine power he had used or where he had obtained them.
"Boom!"
In the end, he brutally killed the Immortal Palace Remnant Immortal, and the intertwined rules refined his immortal soul and body into the Bronze Immortal Palace. In addition, Su Yu extracted the essence of heaven and earth and took some of the spoils he had collected, leaving some of the primordial energy source root and Divine Dao Mother Gold in this Immortal Palace for the future person.
This tactic terrified the other three.
The sight of skinning people, extracting their blood, forging it into laws of order, and then applying it to the bronze palace was so terrifying that it made their very souls tremble with fear.
"Puff!"
The next moment, a giant hand descended, crushing the three of them. The remaining immortal Xian Dao rushed into the two pure lands, turning the emerald green pool water golden. In an instant, mountains and rivers intertwined, and the essence of heaven and earth poured forth, giving that small heavenly pool the prototype of the Dragon Transformation Pool of later generations...
"You have wreaked havoc on this world; now that you are returning your spoils, the karmic debts will be settled."
Su Yu murmured, the Bronze Immortal Palace in his palm rising and falling. As he annihilated the Remnant Immortal, the aura of time emanating from him became increasingly ethereal. At the same time, the immortal might on his primordial spirit grew ever stronger...
In the following period, Su Yu began to study the Indestructible Scripture.
His current state is very special, unlike most beings who have reached this stage.
During his trip to the Immortal Domain Realm, in the Immortal Pit, his primordial spirit underwent a special transformation. The past, present, and future alternated, causing his soul light to sublimate to a terrifying degree.
This is also why he is fearless towards the owner of the penalty area.
Compared to his primordial spirit, Su Yu's Quasi-Immortal King- level physical body was considerably weaker, making the Indestructible Scripture the best way to break the deadlock.
Compared to Shi Hao, who achieved the status of Mortal World Immortal in the original novel, his situation is much better.
The physical body is easy to cultivate, but the primordial spirit is difficult to achieve.
Of all the secret techniques known in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths that can enhance the primordial spirit, only the " Chaos Calming Art" is effective for Xian Dao beings.
Su Yu's primordial spirit has met the requirements; now all he lacks is the Immortal King Body...
Chapter 847 An Lan Knocks on the Gate
Imperial Pass.
Same time period, different appearance and weather.
In the original story, at this time, the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths were silent and desolate, with only Meng Tianzheng and a few old men holding the Border Wasteland, relying on nothing more than a Immortal-Suppressing Stele.
It's difficult to stabilize a country, and it's equally difficult to subdue an immortal!
It is something that can be hoped for but not hoped for, something that is difficult to pass on the family line, something that has not been achieved, something that is not good jade but not good jade... These are the prophecies that circulated when the Ancient Immortal Ming Kingdom of the previous era perished. They have been passed down to later generations, but only a bleak and cold reality remains.
Since An Lan crossed over and shattered the Immortal Stele with a flick of her finger, the unyielding high-ranking Longevity have all perished, and the flexible and immortal families have paid a price to enter the Immortal Domain. The most talented young people in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths were harvested and incorporated into the Immortal Domain, becoming the fresh blood of that immortal homeland.
As for the middle period of the Chaotic Ancient Era, the Great Purge began, leaving only Shi Hao to accompany the passing years in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths. After his calamity, the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths were ravaged. For the next 500,000 years, the remnant realm drifted in turmoil, and the flame of civilization flickered like a candle...
This space-time is completely different.
Within the Imperial Pass, there Longevity, not just one. Above the vast ocean, one after another, divine figures appeared, like towering deities, even higher and more majestic than Mount Tai, exuding Immortal Qi.
Furthermore, a supreme king resided in the Empty City, emanating Immortal King- level aura, as bright as daylight illuminating all directions, supremely holy and powerful, completely igniting the hope of all beings in this realm.
In the central area, the Bronze Immortal Palace floated on the water, with two rows of Supreme beings standing outside the palace, their armor imposing, creating an exceptionally oppressive atmosphere.
The Bronze Ancient Hall and Immortal Gate serve as the boundary, with the outer area being the high Nine Heavens, including Wang Changsheng and other Supreme from the Longevity families.
In the past, their status was extremely prestigious, standing at the very pinnacle of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths. But now they have been reduced to bystanders, unable even to enter the Immortal Gate, forced to bow their heads and wait, not daring to even breathe loudly.
Since the arrival of immortals from the Immortal Domain, this group of people has become increasingly humble. The awe-inspiring presence of the Longevity from the Immortal Domain far surpasses that of the immortals who survived the Immortal Ancient Era, stirring up the inferiority complex deep within them...
Immortal Gate, a group of immortals gathered, including nine from the Immortal Domain.
At first, only one Xuancao Quasi-King and two Immortal Kings from True Immortal King families came here as envoys, and they left very quickly.
However, Su Yu later used a powerful medicine to alleviate the injuries of the king hidden in the Imperial Pass. When the news reached the Immortal Domain, the kings issued decrees and officially dispatched a batch of reinforcements to the Lower Realm as a fresh force for the interdimensional war.
The beings of the Immortal Domain Realm have always been arrogant, but upon arriving at the Imperial Pass and gazing upon the Immortal King's Sun, which hangs high and is formed from the laws of the Immortal King, they instantly became humble.
Only true immortals can comprehend the vastness of the Immortal King's realm. In this respect, the people of the Immortal Domain are completely different from the beings of the Nine Heavens and Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, and their understanding differs greatly.
There are still some hidden gaps here. After all, none of the True Immortal who were sent down did so voluntarily. With the interdimensional war about to begin, rushing to the aid of the Nine Heavens would be tantamount to exile.
Some powerful immortals harbor secret conspiracies, hoping to seize the opportunity to return to the Immortal Domain.
But the dissenting voices quickly disappeared!
At this moment, all the immortals sat silently cross-legged in the Bronze Ancient Hall, like sculptures left over from countless ages ago, desolate and lifeless...
Thump!
A single drumbeat shook the entire city.
Then, horns sounded across the sky, the Ancestral Dragon Horn was blown, and two blood-red flags fluttered in the wind, stirring up a storm in the region.
The secrets of the universe are shrouded in mystery; not only in this space-time, but the entire River of Time is in disarray.
In another corner of the Heavenly Abyss, a massive Foreign Realm army surged forth like a tidal wave, a vast black ocean filled with overwhelming killing intent and millions of ferocious soldiers.
Beyond the terrifying celestial phenomenon, a deafening explosion ripped through the sky, shaking the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.
There was a battle halberd, its runes timeless, its golden light endless, poised to cleave the boundary membrane, its power vast and boundless.
"The weapon of the Immortal King of the Foreign Realm!" On the Imperial Pass, Meng Tianzheng held the Immortal King Burial Shroud, his eyes deep as he gazed at the desolate land engulfed in flames and smoke.
