When the towering and majestic Undying Mountain came into view, Xiao Ping'an couldn't help but feel a surge of emotion. He hadn't seen Undying Mountain for so many years; now it was lush and verdant, with ancient trees reaching for the sky and all sorts of exotic flowers and rare herbs.
Rare birds and animals roam freely here, making it feel like a botanical garden or zoo.
Xiao Ping'an and Bai Feng'er went directly into the Undying Mountain.
As they passed by a place called the Yellow Springs, a powerful aura suddenly surged into the sky and locked onto Xiao Ping'an.
A gigantic tentacle emerged, like a demon from hell, its body covered in toad-like bumps and oozing slime. It seemed to want to grab Xiao Ping'an and drag him to the Yellow Springs to devour him.
"It's an octopus! Its entire body is shrouded in deathly aura and filled with corrosive power. Such a huge octopus is truly a rare species."
In the Yellow Springs River, a gray octopus the size of a mountain appeared, its body emanating a deathly mist and an aura of destruction and death.
This prehistoric octopus, I wonder where the Undying Heavenly Emperor caught it from, it seems he used it as a watchdog.
This is an undead spirit, exuding overwhelming yin energy. Its flesh and blood are formed from the flesh of a quasi-emperor after death, possessing the strength of an early-stage Quasi-Emperor. It is indeed quite powerful.
However, he seems to be a bit slow on the uptake; instead of kneeling and bowing in worship when he sees someone like the Overlord Heavenly Venerable, he actually dares to attack.
He might seem imposing to outsiders, but in front of Xiao Ping'an, he's utterly insignificant.
With a gentle tap from Xiao Ping'an, the enormous octopus deflated like a punctured balloon, falling into the Yellow Springs River with a series of mournful howls before sinking to the Yellow Springs River, never to emerge again.
Crossing the Yellow Springs River, you will arrive at the core of the Undying Mountain.
There was a thick fog that shrouded the magnificent palace.
Xiao Ping'an and Bai Feng'er entered the palace, and he casually dispelled the fog in front of them.
"That is the Undying Heavenly Emperor," Bai Feng'er said, her voice trembling.
Above the main hall, a blood-red fleshy ball appeared in the Xukong, resembling a large silkworm cocoon.
Beside him, the Undying Heavenly Blade floated.
Above it stands a large bell, protecting it.
"It's actually the Kunlun Immortal Bell!"
Xiao Ping'an was also taken aback. He hadn't expected that the Undying Heavenly Emperor had actually gained the favor of the Kunlun Immortal Bell and, unlike in the original story, hadn't left him. Instead, the bell had been protecting him as he transformed.
Ding! Ding! Ding!
The sound of the Kunlun Immortal Bell was crystal clear and resonant, shaking the very soul.
The Kunlun Immortal Bell is surrounded by Hundun energy, intertwined with bolts of lightning, and imprinted with endless runes, each of which contains a strange power.
That feeling of being deeply moved was very unique.
Upon seeing the Kunlun Immortal Bell Kunlun Immortal Bell, Xiao Ping'an and Bai Feng'er immediately felt their blood boil and resonate with it—a very strange sensation.
Then the Kunlun Immortal Bell trembled slightly, having no effect on Xiao Ping'an, but nearly shattering Bai Feng'er's soul.
Fortunately, Xiao Ping'an used his White Bone Saber to block the attack and forcibly cut off the terrible impact; otherwise, Bai Feng'er might have been shattered.
"Is this the Kunlun Immortal Bell?"
"That's terrifying!" Bai Feng'er said, her expression horrified.
The Kunlun Immortal Bell was surrounded by countless laws of the Great Dao, intertwined with lightning and filled with Hundun energy.
Sensing someone's arrival, it roared and transformed into a streak of light, pressing down on Xiao Ping'an and engulfing both Xiao Ping'an and Bai Feng'er.
Xiao Ping'an casually took Bai Feng'er into his body.
Alone, he confronted the Kunlun Immortal Bell.
That inexplicable pressure made the blood in Xiao Ping'an's body begin to boil.
The Kunlun Immortal Bell cast down wave after wave of immortal light, Xiao Ping'an calmly accepted, using the countless immortal runes within to temper his body.
The bell tolled softly, and immortal runes cascaded down like a waterfall, as if a world were pressing down to crush Xiao Ping'an into pieces.
If it were anyone else, they certainly wouldn't be able to withstand the terrifying pressure of the Kunlun Immortal Bell.
Xiao Ping'an is different. At his level, his physical body is already as hard as the Nine Immortal Gold, and his soul is even more powerful.
There's no need to use forbidden techniques; one can withstand the Kunlun Immortal Bell with sheer physical strength.
Xiao Ping'an reached out and gently lifted the Kunlun Immortal Bell, preventing it from being suppressed.
The weapon deity of the Kunlun Immortal Bell seemed to be enraged, bursting forth with dazzling light that pierced through the eternal starry sky.
Countless immortal runes also burst forth from Xiao Ping'an's body; these were the immortal runes imprinted on him when he was comprehending the Kunlun Immortal Bell.
There are also Immortal Ascension Cauldron, the White Bone Saber, the Bronze Coffin, and the Desolate Pagoda.
In that instant, Xiao Ping'an seemed to have found their shared immortal runes.
He was suddenly struck by a realization: to become Immortal Artifact, besides their unique Dao, one must also possess this universal celestial rune technique.
Could it be that all Immortal Artifact possess these immortal techniques and runes in order to truly ascend to the status of Immortal Artifact?
In the blink of an eye, Xiao Ping'an felt as if the fog in his heart had been blown away instantly.
He took out his Overlord Heaven Bell and casually imprinted the universal immortal rune he had just comprehended onto it.
The Overlord Heaven Bell hummed, then burst forth with countless immortal runes.
It was as if the flame of immortality had been ignited, burning fiercely in an instant, and in the blink of an eye, it had become a Immortal Artifact.
In his fourth incarnation, Xiao Ping'an actually forged a Immortal Artifact?
It seems strange, but it's not strange at all.
Since he had indeed reached the strength of an ordinary True Immortal, it was only natural that his weapon would evolve into an ordinary Immortal Artifact.
With a deafening roar, Xiao Ping'an severed time and space, firmly binding the Kunlun Immortal Bell.
His Overlord Heaven Bell charged straight at it, its blazing Dao Fire clashing against the Kunlun Immortal Bell without being at a disadvantage, a truly astonishing sight.
" Kunlun Immortal Bell, don't you recognize me?" Xiao Ping'an shouted.
"It really is you, Overlord Heavenly Venerable! I never imagined you'd live another Lifetime. Truly admirable and awe-inspiring."
"I apologize for my rudeness!"
Both being Immortal Artifact, neither was willing to yield to the other. The Overlord Heaven Bell even wanted to fight against the Kunlun Immortal Bell, so Xiao Ping'an summoned it back.
Then the Kunlun Immortal Bell recounted its alliance with the Undying Heavenly Emperor.
Because the Undying Heavenly Emperor came from the Immortal Domain Immortal Domain and knew a lot about it, Xiao Ping'an, after refining the Demonic Seed and possessing its body, naturally also learned a lot about the Immortal Domain.
After some conversation, the Kunlun Immortal Bell indeed confessed to the Undying Heavenly Emperor that he also came from the Immortal Domain and had fallen to this world from Immortal Domain.
It was once a powerful Immortal King Weapon, but unfortunately it fell into the mortal realm, its power declined, and even after becoming Immortal Artifact, its power was repeatedly weakened. Now it is just an ordinary Immortal Artifact.
However, after nurturing himself for so many years in this world, he felt that he had made great progress. If he could enter the Immortal Domain, he would definitely be able to recover and become Immortal King Weapon as quickly as possible.
He felt that the Undying Heavenly Emperor did indeed have the potential to enter the Immortal Domain, and hoped that when the Road to Immortality opened in the future, the two of them could enter the Immortal Domain together.
It's that simple.
Xiao Ping'an also found it somewhat unbelievable.
However, the Kunlun Immortal Bell seemed unaware of the mysterious connection between Xiao Ping'an and the Undying Heavenly Emperor.
Seeing the Undying Heavenly Emperor transforming into a giant fleshy ball, Xiao Ping'an took out some of the Supreme's flesh and blood and casually tossed it over.
In an instant, this flesh and blood were swept by a five-colored divine light, transforming into the most primordial blood and laws, which were then devoured by the fleshy ball.
This looks like a very terrifying sight.
When the Undying Heavenly Emperor transformed, he did indeed exude a demonic power that influenced people's thoughts, making them unable to resist offering sacrifices and dedicating their own life essence.
Bai Feng'er almost couldn't withstand the influence just now and nearly sacrificed herself.
If Xiao Ping'an hadn't intervened, he might already be dead.
Just as Xiao Ping'an was pondering this question, the Kunlun Immortal Bell suddenly rang out, and a piece of immortal runes flew out from it, transforming into an Immortal Bell exactly like the Kunlun Immortal Bell, flashing with immortal divine light.
The Overlord Heaven Bell, like a gaping maw, swallowed the immortal Immortal Bell formed from the celestial talisman in one gulp. Clearly, this was a gift from the Kunlun Immortal Bell to the Overlord Heaven Bell; both were weapons, and the Kunlun Immortal Bell, sensing the Overlord Heaven Bell's potential, had taken the initiative to show goodwill.
Upon seeing this, Xiao Ping'an was speechless, never expecting that this weapon deity would also understand human relationships.
Knowing that it's good to establish a positive connection beforehand.
After devouring the flesh and blood of those Supreme, five-colored divine light emanated from within, resounding like five divine swords, dazzling and beautiful.
Clearly, he was thanking Xiao Ping'an for his help, while also telling Xiao Ping'an that he was doing well now, but that he still needed time to transform and live a new Lifetime.
Seeing that the Undying Heavenly Emperor was still undergoing transformation, Xiao Ping'an had nothing to say.
He then left.
Then Xiao Ping'an entered Purple Mountain again, and with a wave of his hand, moved Purple Mountain to Heaven-Reaching Ancient Star.
Bai Feng'er and Phoenix Nest naturally moved from this Purple Mountain to the Heaven-Reaching Ancient Star.
The latest novels are first published on 69shuba!
Xiao Ping'an set up a dense array of restrictions, turning that place into the Purple Mountain Forbidden Zone.
Bai Feng'er was only at the Quasi-Emperor Ninth Heaven realm, and in this era, there was no hope for her to attain enlightenment.
Since Xiao Ping'an had plenty of time, Xiao Ping'an readily accepted the wife that the Undying Heavenly Emperor had given him.
He spent over a thousand years in the Phoenix Nest with Bai Feng'er, until Bai Feng'er attained enlightenment through Alternative Dao Attainment and was then resealed. Only then did Xiao Ping'an leave the Phoenix Nest, Purple Mountain, and Heaven-Reaching Ancient Star.
Following that unseen connection, he went to search for the Primordial Ancient Mine and to find the Hundun Heavenly Venerable.
This Body of Faith, which he had painstakingly crafted, has been freeing itself ever since it was granted an independent life.
Later, he even transformed into a beautiful loli, just like the Chu Heavenly Emperor Chu Loli in later generations. Although he was a man, he was as beautiful as a flower.
After devouring the essence of a female immortal's corpse, she simply transformed into a woman and walked the world in her female form, leaving Xiao Ping'an feeling utterly astonished.
He truly never imagined that the Body of Faith he had created would become so unrestrained.
At one point, it was even suspected that the Power of Faith might be poisonous.
It destroyed his Body of Faith.
He quickly found the Primordial Ancient Mine. Although it Primordial Ancient Mine hidden in the Hundun, he found it soon by relying on the mysterious connection he had with the Body of Faith.
However, it seems an earth-shattering battle is taking place there. Apparently, a Dark Supreme has discovered the Primordial Ancient Mine Primordial Ancient Mine and wants to seize it?
Primordial Ancient Mine.
Everywhere were silvery-white Primordial Fate Stone, radiating a surging, vibrant life force.
Everything was quiet and peaceful, filled with an atmosphere of holiness and vitality.
Just then, one of the Primordial Fate Stone suddenly exploded, and clouds of black mist billowed out, instantly enveloping the nascent Primordial Taichu.
While he was focused on cultivating the Heaven-Mending Technique, hoping to nurture Taichu at a faster pace, he hadn't even had time to react before he was instantly enveloped by the terrifying black mist, which blocked his divine sense and all his aura.
" Saint Spirit Immortal Fetus?!"
"Haha, what a fresh and delicious body! He's mine now. I'll use his body to live a new Lifetime." A decaying and ancient voice emanated from the black mist.
"Ah, the Dark Supreme from the Hades era is still alive..." Sensing an aura that was even more ancient and distant than the Mythological Era, Taichu instantly sensed that special feeling and judged that this was a Dark Supreme who had survived from an era even more distant than the Mythological Era.
"We've been targeted by the Dark Supreme, what should we do?"
"Senior Desolate Pagoda has gone to explore the Immortal Domain Rift, to explore the Road to Immortality, and has not yet returned."
" The Hundun Heavenly Venerable is attempting to live out his fifth incarnation using the Saint Spirit's methods; it's unknown when he will appear."
"I wonder how Master Xiao Ping'an is doing now."
What should I do? Can anyone help me?
Taichu panicked. Although he had several powerful backers, he couldn't contact them or rely on them now. What could he do?
"Haha, my little darling, let me possess your body. When I attain immortality, you will become an immortal too." The Dark Supreme laughed wildly.
Faced with the primordial energy and vitality of the Primordial Taichu, this ancient ghost, lurking in some forbidden zone, unexpectedly discovered the Primordial Ancient Mine.
Unbeknownst to them, they had infiltrated the Primordial Ancient Mine.
He exuded an incredibly thick black mist, a putrid aura, as if he were Yin God born from the Netherworld. It was unknown what kind of Dao he cultivated, for he was so strange and terrifying.
The black mist condensed into one after another divine refinement of the Great Dao order, like Dragon Marked Black Gold, layer upon layer, binding the Taichu.
That ghost-like Dark Supreme, seemingly without a body, transformed into a black mist, attempting to devour the Taichu Spirit and seize his body.
Taichu has been cultivating the Heaven-Mending Technique for a long time. Although he has not started cultivating the major secret realms of the human body, he has begun cultivating in another way. His body is radiating countless immortal runes as he fights against the invasion of the black ghost mist.
"You old devil, you actually tried to possess my body!" Taichu roared.
"Hehehe..."
The eerie, terrifying laughter sent shivers down one's spine.
It was as if it were not a Supreme who once dominated the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, but a ghost that crawled out of the netherworld, exuding a chilling aura.
"Our ancestor has an extremely keen sense for the aura of Immortal Fetus. Throughout history, he has devoured countless Immortal Fetus nurtured by heaven and earth to survive to this day."
"I never imagined that a casual stroll would lead to the discovery of such a mysterious mining area. The Heavens has truly been kind to me."
"This Primordial Ancient Mine is now mine."
"Your body is mine now."
A thick, black fog filled the air, within which was a blurry human figure.
His body had long since rotted into ashes, and his primordial spirit had transformed into a ghostly mist, just like a demonic mist, carrying an incomparably dense aura of death and corrosive power.
"Could you be an old ghost born from the Netherworld Underworld?"
Taichu knew that his master had been guarding the Underworld for a long time. He wondered if this old ghost knew his master and if he could try to establish a connection.
"Heh, the Underworld?" The black demon said disdainfully, "The Netherworld Underworld nothing but a fart before me."
"The place where I was born is Burial Earth far superior to the Netherworld. There are no more Burial Earth in the entire universe now, and I am unique in this regard."
"Little brat, do you even know what Burial Earth means?"
"That's a place countless times more advanced than the Underworld, a legendary Netherworld that can nurture Immortal King."
"What? Do you have relatives in the Underworld? Trying to establish a connection with me? Haha..."
"Don't waste your time. My heart is as hard as iron. No matter how many reasons you have, you won't escape my clutches."
"I have imprinted countless dense divine runes of the Great Dao here. No one should even think of escaping from my grasp, not even if you are Immortal Fetus from the Primordial Ancient Mine," the black figure said arrogantly.
Taichu realized why he felt as if there were invisible shackles firmly controlling him. Countless terrifying Great Dao Runes flashed, making him feel his primordial spirit weakening and wanting to fall into a deep sleep.
He knew he absolutely could not fall asleep; if he did, it would be the end for him.
"This Primordial Ancient Mine is even better than any of the Life Forbidden Zone I've ever seen, and I never imagined it would fall into my hands like this."
"From now on, I am the Lord of the Forbidden Zone. I no longer need to wander. Haha..."
"Aren't you afraid that my body won't be able to handle it and that this Immortal Fetus will be wasted?" Taichu said.
"I have tried to possess many Immortal Fetus, but none of them succeeded. Either their bodies couldn't withstand my primordial spirit and suddenly shattered."
"But you are different. You are Immortal Fetus nurtured by the Primordial Ancient Mine for countless millions of years. As long as you do not die, you will surely attain enlightenment in the future. I see the hope of becoming an immortal in you."
The old ghost in the Lust Ghost mist Taichu had a pale light in his eyes, staring intently at Tai Chu, wishing he could completely seize control of his body in the next moment.
