Chapter 1559 'Transcendent Immortal Emperor' Level Beast Tide
Chapter 1559 A Beast Tide of 'Ten-Turn Immortal Emperor' Level
"where are we going?"
The three unscrupulous individuals huddled together and whispered for half an incense stick's time. The youngest, Little Fatty, the unscrupulous Taoist priest who had been 'harmed' by Wang Xian's power of time, finally spoke up to ask a question.
In fact, thousands of years have passed in the 'Eternal Universe', and the residual power of time on the chubby Taoist should have dissipated long ago.
However, this guy wanted to use the power of time within his body to comprehend the laws of time, but somehow, the power of time within his body was directly 'imprisoned,' resulting in him remaining in his current 'child' form.
The fat Taoist priest slapped his thigh suddenly, his eyes, as bright as copper bells, gleaming: "How about... we dig up the graves of the Taoist clan?"
He had just returned from the Chaos Sea with Wang Xian and only knew a superficial understanding of the various forces in the Eternal Universe. However, just hearing the words "Dao Clan," he felt that this must be an ancient and mysterious race.
If a race is ancient and mysterious, then its great tomb must hold endless secrets and treasures.
"Are you fucking crazy?!"
The second fat Taoist glared at the big fat man, his brows furrowed, and said anxiously, "Let's not even talk about how the Taoist clan is the mother's family of the Dream Ancestor, and they're practically inseparable from Lord Wang Xian. Just look at Lord Ye Ancestor, he's a supreme expert who can break through the Nine Domains' restrictions! You dare to touch their ancestral graves? I'm afraid not even ashes will be left!"
The chubby Taoist priest nodded quickly: "Brother, you really can't dig up the Taoist clan's tombs, and the Taoist clan really doesn't have any tombs."
The Dao Clan is a race born from the Great Dao. Even in death, they return to the Great Dao. The Dao Clan does not build tombs for the dead.
Therefore, the Daoist clan does not have any large tombs at all!
The fat Taoist priest was dumbfounded. After a long while, he clutched his chest and sighed deeply. His voice was so mournful that it could startle strange birds three miles away: "Such a mysterious and powerful race has no ancestral tombs... This is simply the greatest insult to our 'archaeological cause'!"
He pounded the ground with his fist in anguish, causing it to churn. Several three-eyed insects hiding in the soil scurried out with squeaking sounds, only to be stomped back into the ground in a panic.
The three of them huddled together again, heads touching, whispering to each other.
Big Fatty pulled out a crumpled animal hide map from his pocket, with crooked symbols drawn on it in cinnabar. It was said to have been dug out of an ancient tomb.
Erpang pulled out a tortoise shell, closed his eyes, and shook it, making a "clattering" sound, while muttering incantations.
Little Fatty pressed his ear against the broken bowl in his hand, occasionally making an "hmm" sound, as if there was a know-it-all hidden in the bowl.
After a short while, Erpang suddenly opened his eyes, slapped his thigh so hard that the tortoise shell flew off: "I've got it! The Divine Firmament Holy Court!"
"The Divine Firmament Holy Court?"
The fat Taoist priest was puzzled.
The fat Taoist priest pointed his finger at the area marked with a red circle: "A top-tier power in the 'Eternal Universe'!"
Little Fatty held the broken bowl, his eyes sparkling. "Last time, my second brother and I were being chased in the Heavenly Realm. We hid in an old monster's cave and overheard him chatting with his disciple. He said that there was a great tomb from before the Primordial Era buried under the Divine Firmament Holy Court, and the treasures inside would make even a 'Tenth-Rank Immortal Emperor' fight tooth and nail for them!"
He lowered his voice and whispered in the fat man's ear, "That old monster also said that the Holy Court's protective mountain formation was modified from treasures found in the tomb, which shows how rich they are!"
Big Fatty's eyes lit up instantly, and he stuffed the map into his pocket: "This is it! Forget about the Holy Court, let's dig!"
Just leave.
Little Fatty put the broken bowl on the ground and muttered a spell that no one could understand.
The bowl suddenly swelled to about ten feet in size, and dense star runes appeared on its rim, moving along the bowl's walls as if they had come to life; black mist seeped from the ghostly patterns at the bottom of the bowl, condensing into a swirling vortex at the rim, through which the starry sky on the opposite side could be vaguely seen.
The three of them quickly jumped inside. The broken bowl emitted a clear, melodious hum, and with a flash of white light, it tore through the void and disappeared without a trace.
Two figures emerged from the void; they were Wang Xian and Yao Yao.
Wang Xian stared in the direction where the broken bowl had disappeared, his brows furrowed so deeply they could trap a mosquito.
"These three guys...aren't they going to cause some trouble?"
He had also heard of the Divine Firmament Holy Court.
The Divine Firmament Sacred Court.
The 'Eternal Great Universe' is formed by the fusion of nine inner universes. In the former 'Immortal Great Universe', due to the fusion, in addition to the remaining nine domains, some areas remained. Among them, the 'Divine Firmament Holy Court' is one of the forces in one of the remaining areas.
However, the area where the 'Divine Firmament Holy Court' is located was once an untouched region in the 'Great Universe of Immortals', so no one knew about it.
After the nine inner universes merged into the 'Eternal Great Universe', coupled with the improvement of the 'Data-Driven Rules' and its own inherent strength, the 'Divine Firmament Holy Court' has become one of the top forces in the 'Eternal Great Universe'.
Even more deadly is that the Holy Court's protective mountain formation is made up of ninety-nine star cores containing chaotic power, which are rumored to be able to withstand the attacks of a "Ten-Turn Immortal Emperor".
“I’ve heard that the Divine Firmament Holy Court has dozens of peak 'Nine Revolutions Immortal Emperors',” Wang Xian’s voice deepened, “and if they’re hiding 'Ten Revolutions Immortal Emperors'…”
He didn't finish his sentence, but his meaning couldn't be clearer.
A powerhouse of this level, let alone the 'Thief Lord' who has completely lost his memories, even Yao Yao who has recovered a small portion of her memories, would not necessarily be a match for him if she didn't use some of her trump cards.
"Don't worry, the Thief King has many tricks up his sleeve."
Yao Yao remained calm.
As one of the Ten Venerables of the Celestial Realm, she knew the Thief Venerable very well. Even though the current Thief Venerable had no memories of the Thief Venerable, he must have left behind many methods, otherwise he wouldn't have split into three and prevented the three bodies from having any memories.
Of course, it's also possible that the Thief Lord's secret technique has malfunctioned, but in any case, the Thief Lord must have a way to protect his three bodies.
Wang Xian thought about it and agreed.
These three guys are incredibly despicable. They cause trouble all the time and still manage to live a comfortable life. They must be quite capable.
Just as I breathed a sigh of relief and was about to turn around, Yao Yao grabbed me.
Yao Yao's fingers were icy cold as she gripped Wang Xian's wrist tightly. Her beautiful eyes were fixed on Wang Xian, a rare seriousness churning within them. Even her usually upturned lips were pursed into a straight line: "When do you plan to break through to the Immortal Realm?"
"It should be soon."
Wang Xian answered.
Having retraced his steps and gained some understanding of the 'Laws of Destiny,' and with all the barriers to breaking through to the 'Immortal Realm' gone, he could easily break through to the 'Immortal Realm' once he had enough 'experience points.'
Yao Yao remained silent for a moment, then ran her fingertips across Wang Xian's wrist, leaving a cold mark.
Her voice was low, with an almost intuitive certainty: "I don't know the specific reason, but I recently recovered some of my memories, and these fragments of memories make me feel that you will have big problems if you step into the fairyland."
She paused, her beautiful eyes narrowing slightly. "It's like... something is waiting for you to cross that hurdle, a trap set specifically for you." Her memories weren't complete, just fragments, some of which didn't even contain any record of anything related to Wang Xian. But she just felt that some of the seemingly unrelated things in those fragments made her think they were connected to Wang Xian.
Wang Xian was stunned.
Yao Yao, a truly top-tier expert, has an incredibly accurate intuition; such experts almost never misjudge danger.
"Okay, I'll hold off on breaking through for now."
Wang Xian nodded, suppressing the urge to break through.
He trusted Yao Yao's intuition!
Breaking through to the 'Immortal Realm' can indeed greatly enhance one's strength, but he is not without other ways to improve his strength now.
After all, with the existence of the 'Ultimate Law,' there is no limit to his strength improvement, and he doesn't need to break through 'realms' to increase his strength.
Yao Yao breathed a sigh of relief, and with a flicker of her figure, she disappeared into the void, returning to Wang Xian's inner world to tinker with her inventions.
Wang Xian then returned to the Hongmeng Mountains behind the Immortal Palace territory through the spatial passage of the inner world.
The Hongmeng Mountains are shrouded in the Five Elements Qi all year round, with auspicious five-colored clouds floating on the mountain peaks, and the faint shadows of dragons and phoenixes can be seen playing in the clouds.
The stream at the foot of the mountain is formed by the convergence of liquid spiritual energy, and the stones along the stream are all jade-colored. Even picking up just one stone would make 'Immortal Venerable' level cultivators fight tooth and nail for it.
Wang Xian found a cave dwelling almost entirely enveloped by a liquid stream formed from the condensed energy of the Five Elements, intending to once again enter seclusion for cultivation.
Sit cross-legged and begin practicing the exercises.
The five energies suddenly seemed to find an outlet, surging wildly into his body—the cyan energy nourished his meridians, the white energy tempered his bones, the black energy warmed his immortal abode, the red energy forged his soul, and the yellow energy stabilized his foundation.
The five streams of energy circulated within his meridians, eventually condensing into a five-colored band of light that flowed slowly.
During the monotonous years of spiritual practice, the changes in the outside world never ceased.
Five years later, the air in the 'Eternal Universe' seemed to solidify, making it hard to breathe.
The reason is that more cultivators from the 'Chaos Sea' have entered, and some forces from the 'Chaos Sea' have even moved their entire forces to the 'Eternal Universe'.
Not only the forces of cultivators in the 'Chaos Sea', but even cultivators and many forces in the 'Gods and Demons Sea' have come to the 'Eternal Harmony Universe'.
The cultivators of the 'Sea of Gods and Demons' were able to come to the 'Eternal Great Universe' entirely by using Wang Xian's inner world as a springboard to enter the 'Chaos Sea' and finally arrive at the 'Eternal Great Universe'.
Wang Xian knew that the Chaos Sea and the God-Demon Sea must have reached some kind of agreement or cooperation, otherwise the Chaos Sea would never have allowed the many cultivators and forces of the God-Demon Sea to pass through.
Friction between foreign and local forces is increasing, and the secret realms marked as 'top leveling areas' by data-driven rules have become the focus of contention between the two sides.
Strangely, no matter how fierce the fight was, both sides tacitly avoided killing the 'Immortal Emperor' level cultivator.
It's like there's an invisible red line binding all cultivators!
The casualties among those below the Quasi-Immortal Emperor level were heavy. In the battle of the 'Seven Star Sea Palace' secret realm alone, dozens of Quasi-Immortal Emperors and tens of thousands of Immortal Venerables perished. The number of cultivators below that level was countless. However, Immortal Emperor level cultivators at most suffered minor injuries and no one died.
Wang Xian sat in his cave, his fingertips twirling a wisp of five-colored energy, which condensed into a small vortex in his palm.
He wondered to himself, "What could be the trigger?"
He thought the war would break out soon, but he never expected that it would take a century.
Over the course of a century, he absorbed nearly half of the Five Elements Qi of the Hongmeng Mountains, causing the five-colored auspicious clouds on the mountaintop to fade considerably, and the phantom images of dragons and phoenixes to become blurred.
Wang Xian's aura became increasingly unfathomable, and the numerous laws surrounding his body condensed into a tangible band of light, capable of tearing everything apart with a mere flick.
The external situation remains deadlocked.
Of course, Wang Xian wasn't without entertainment during the past hundred years, namely watching the wicked journey of three unscrupulous Taoist priests.
He left a 'time-space imprint' on the three unscrupulous Taoist priests, using the imprint to track their movements.
Just as he and Yao Yao had predicted, the three unscrupulous Taoist priests indeed caused quite a stir in the Divine Firmament Holy Court—first, they stole the treasure of the Holy Court's treasury, which was said to be a bead that could bewitch living beings.
Then, the area where the ancestral graves of the Divine Firmament Holy Court were buried was filled with Yellow Spring Grass. That grass specifically absorbs soul power, which almost made the Holy Lord break through on the spot.
Even more outrageous, they stewed the only tortoise shell used by the Divine Firmament Holy Court to deduce heavenly secrets into soup. It is said that they also added some potent medicine to the soup, causing the elders of the Divine Firmament Holy Court to suffer from diarrhea for three days and three nights.
The cultivators of the Divine Firmament Holy Court were furious and sent twenty elders at the peak of the 'Nine Revolutions Immortal Emperor' level to hunt them down. However, every time they were about to succeed, either the Second Fatty Taoist would smash a path through them with his arm, or the Little Fatty Taoist would teleport them to hundreds of millions of miles away with his broken bowl.
The fat Taoist priest was even more divine, always able to give a warning half an incense stick's time in advance, and could even avoid the deadly formation set up by the Divine Firmament Holy Court.
“These three guys…”
Wang Xian looked at the three guys sitting around a large pot, which was stewing some mythical beasts and elixirs they had stolen from who-knows-where, and shook his head helplessly.
After confirming that the three scoundrels were alright, Wang Xian resumed his seclusion.
Several months later, the Hongmeng Mountains suddenly trembled violently, and the five-colored air currents outside the cave exploded with a "whoosh," condensing into vortexes.
Wang Xian, who was meditating, suddenly opened his eyes, a solemn expression appearing in them.
He could sense that the oppressive atmosphere of the 'Eternal Universe' had been suddenly ignited at this moment, and the starting point of that ignition pointed directly to the direction of the Divine Firmament Holy Court.
Without the slightest hesitation, Wang Xian communicated with the 'time-space imprint' left on the three unscrupulous Taoist priests.
The image appears!
Upon seeing the scene clearly, Wang Xian's pupils instantly contracted to the size of pinholes.
Ferocious beast!
Ferocious beasts roam the land!
Of course, the sheer number of ferocious beasts alone wouldn't have been enough to shock Wang Xian. What truly shocked him was that each of those countless beasts exuded the aura of a 'Tenth-Rank Immortal Emperor'!
Even more terrifying is that many of these ferocious beasts exuded an aura that actually reached the 'Heavenly Emperor level'!
Wang Xian could hardly believe what she was seeing!
When will ferocious beasts at the 'Ten-Turn Immortal Emperor' level be able to gather in large numbers?
wrong!
It's not enough to describe it as a "crowding"; "beast tide" would be a more appropriate description!
