Terran Guardian - Chapter 3423

Chapter 3403 Immortal Mine

“Your Majesty, that person has refused!”

Within the Divine Sun Immortal Court, Immortal Emperor Dayi arrived to report.

His words

caused Emperor Shenyang’s expression to darken slightly, but he quickly recovered.

“Since they’ve refused, so be it. There’s no need to force it if we’re not destined.”

The Divine Sun Immortal Court, with its eons of heritage, was now the unrivaled power within the Divine Sun Realm. To personally send someone to recruit an Immortal Emperor was a tremendous honor.

Had the other party refused, the Divine Sun Immortal Court naturally wouldn’t have persisted.

After all   ,

even such a   supreme power had to maintain respect. Normally, a mere Immortal Emperor wouldn’t have been worthy of their attention.   At this point,   Emperor Dayi added, “However, rumors spread that the Heavenly Demon Holy Land possesses an ancient Immortal Mine, mined since ancient times and never depleted—”   ”According to you, only the Immortal Mine of Immortality could achieve this. So, this Tailuo Mine is indeed an Immortal Mine of Immortality!”   Emperor Shenyang said calmly.   An Immortal Mine of Immortality!   Even if a being aspiring to immortality perished and their corpse were buried within the immortal mine, their inherent Dao rhyme energy would escape, potentially transforming into immortal ore.   The greatest characteristic of this immortal mine is that it remains untapped until the immortal energy is exhausted.   At this time,   the Great Yi Immortal Emperor declared, “This Tailuo Immortal Mine is rich in top-grade immortal stones. If nothing unexpected happens, it should be a sage-level immortal mine.   Furthermore   , the immortal stones produced by this mine are located right here!”   With a flick of his hand, the Great Yi Immortal Emperor revealed a Tailuo Immortal Stone.   The Divine Sun Heavenly Emperor, with a single glance, discerned the Tailuo Immortal Stone’s identity.   ”Hmm, it truly is the aura of a sage’s Dao rhyme. In that case, this immortal mine must belong to the Immortal Court!”   A sage-level immortal ore represents a significant opportunity, even for the Divine Sun Immortal Court.   If it were merely a semi-sage-level immortal ore, the Divine Sun Heavenly Emperor would not have cared.   But at the sage level, the situation was different.   With this immortal ore, and with the help of immortal stones of this caliber, the Shenyang Immortal Court could at least cultivate a group of Immortal Emperors, and even enhance the strength of some semi-saints.   After all,   a sage’s Dao rhyme is still a sage’s Dao rhyme.   Even if the sage’s Dao rhyme contained in these immortal stones is weak, it still has a certain effect on cultivators below the level of saints. It’s   simply   a matter of how much.   In this era, immortality cannot be achieved before the arrival of the great catastrophe, and the number of truly immortals who can walk the mortal world is always limited.   The number of Immortal Emperors is a formidable factor for any force.   Therefore, if the Shenyang Immortal Court were unaware   of this level of immortal ore,   it would be fine. But now that it knows about it, it naturally cannot miss it.   Although   the Shenyang Immortal Court also controls immortal mines, and not just one,   the question is:   who would be dissatisfied with too many resources?   Immortal Emperor Dayi said, “The news of the Tailuo Immortal Mine is spreading like wildfire right now, fueled by forces behind the scenes.   As far as I know, this matter is inextricably linked to both the Hidden Sword Sect and the Jueqing Immortal Sect.”   ”There’s no need to worry about these two mere Immortal Immortal Sects. Since the news can’t be concealed, let’s see how they perform. A Sage-level Immortal Mine is already worth the Immortal Court’s investment,”   Emperor Shenyang said calmly.   Two Immortal Immortal Sects, each commanded by a mere Semi-Saint, are only worthy of the Shenyang Immortal Court’s attention in this era.   During the Great Tribulation, such power would have been easily annihilated by the Shenyang Immortal Court.   But even in this era, Emperor Shenyang considered the two Immortal Immortal Sects mere trifles.   A Sage-level Immortal Mine—such an opportunity—was one that the Shenyang Immortal Court absolutely couldn’t miss.   Even if they couldn’t secure the mine entirely, they at least had a share.   ”Any immortal mine may contain the legacy of a past sage. The mine and the immortal stone are secondary; the true purpose is to strive for the legacy of the sage!”   said the Divine Sun Emperor.   Upon hearing this,   the Dayi Immortal Emperor remained silent.   At this moment, the Divine Sun Emperor’s voice rang out again.   ”I have already made arrangements for this matter. You proceed. You have also made some contributions to the discovery of the immortal mine.   When the Immortal Court seizes this mine and secures the legacy of the sage, you will be handsomely rewarded!”   ”Thank you, Your Majesty!”   The Dayi Immortal Emperor’s expression remained calm, and he was about to bow and withdraw.   However,   just as he was about to leave, the Divine Sun Emperor suddenly spoke again.   ”Over countless years, countless powerful figures have fallen from the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm. Even within high-level immortal realms, their foundations are far more complex than they appear.   Since the Tianxing Domain has discovered an immortal mine, it’s likely that other immortal realms also possess mines.   You should send personnel to secretly investigate these other immortal realms. If you discover any, report immediately!”   ”Yes!”   Emperor Dayi replied respectfully.   ”Go!” Emperor Shenyang waved his hand,   and   the latter retreated several steps before leaving the immortal palace.   Meanwhile,   news of the Tailuo Immortal Mine spread like wildfire.   Many factions, inspired by the news, entered the Tianxing Domain, hoping to seize the opportunities within.   Furthermore,   some top factions, drawn to the news, also turned their attention to the Tianxing Domain.   Simultaneously,   all the secrets surrounding the Tailuo Immortal Mine spread.   ”The Immortal Mine of Eternal Life!”   Inside the Immortal Palace of Tianchen Holy Land, Shen Changqing looked at the news coming from Tianyao Holy Land, and his eyes couldn’t help but move slightly.

One reason he left a bloody avatar in the Heavenly Demon Holy Land was to gather news from the Celestial Star Region, keeping himself informed.

After all,

Chaos is vast.

Most communication methods are limited by distance.

While many communication methods can still communicate smoothly across various Immortal Realms,

the reality is…

How big is the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm? How

vast is Chaos?

The former is but a drop in the ocean compared to the latter.

Communication methods that can connect across Immortal Realms within the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm might not be effective within Chaos.

After all, no matter how vast the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm is, it can never compare to Chaos.

The latter is so vast that even those striving for immortality struggle to truly explore its boundaries. Under such circumstances, many communication methods are naturally ineffective.

But—

the avatars are different.

These avatars are part of Shen Changqing.

Their means of communication are naturally beyond the reach of ordinary communication methods.

Although Shen Changqing doesn’t know the limits of these avatars’ connections…

at least…

From the Tianchen Holy Land, communicating with the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm is a piece of cake.

By comparison,

Daojian and other communication jade talismans are now ineffective.

As

news of the Tailuo Immortal Mine spread, its secrets were discovered by the Avatar, and subsequently passed on to Shen Changqing.

Only now

did he truly understand the existence of the so-called Immortal Mine of Longevity, beyond ordinary immortal mines.

“If the rumors of the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm are to be believed, the Tailuo Immortal Mine must be the so-called Immortal Mine of Longevity, and the being buried deep within it must be a fallen saint!”

Shen Changqing’s eyes narrowed slightly.

“But—” “

The saint’s remains within the Tailuo Immortal Mine have likely undergone some strange transformations. They are definitely not just ordinary saint remains!”

Shen Changqing recalled the beating heartbeat he had heard in the Tailuo Immortal Mine.

The being buried deep within the mine was definitely not a dead object, but a living being.

So…

the outside world speculated. The claim

that the remains of a saint were buried there wasn’t entirely correct.

If nothing unexpected happened,

perhaps the remains of a saint were indeed buried there, but over time, they underwent a transformation, gradually resurrecting in some mysterious way.

If so,

it would be difficult for other forces to seize the Tailuo Immortal Mine.

However,

these matters had little to do with Shen Changqing.

He had already taken most of the resources within the Tailuo Immortal Mine. He

had no intention of coveting the remaining so-called saint’s legacy.

In the past, he

was unaware of the Tailuo Immortal Mine’s origins.

Now,

even if he knew, he wouldn’t have any desire to seize such an opportunity. The

mere thought of a saint’s corpse that had undergone a strange transformation was terrifying.

A powerful being of this caliber, unfathomable in life, remained equally formidable even after death.

Without absolute certainty, it was best not to provoke them.

Currently,

Shen Changqing’s strength rivaled Changsheng’s.

But the problem was…

A Semi-Saint at the Nine Tribulations.

His current strength, compared to those who aspired to the pinnacle of this realm, presented an insurmountable chasm.

He couldn’t even handle a stronger Semi-Saint, let alone a revived Saint’s corpse.

Beings of this caliber, even if less powerful than at their peak, were still far beyond the reach of ordinary cultivators.

Therefore,

Shen Changqing naturally wouldn’t seek trouble.

Unless—unless

he used Jiuye’s trump card.

But the problem was,

whether Jiuye’s trump card could handle such a being was uncertain.

Even if it could, whether the benefits of using it against a revived Saint’s corpse were worth the effort was also worth considering.

From any perspective, staying out of the situation was the best outcome.

With this in mind,

Shen Changqing stopped thinking about the matter.

He had already done what he needed to do. Now it was up to the various forces to see how they would respond.

Anyway.

The Heavenly Demon Holy Land has changed its name and is recuperating in the chaos. Even if other forces are aware of its departure, locating it would be extremely difficult.

Therefore,

even if a catastrophe strikes the Heavenly Star Region, or even if the remains of a saint are resurrected, it will have no impact on them. All

Shen Changqing has to do is watch.

No matter how powerful the waves are, they will not be able to affect him in the slightest. (End of this chapter)
