Terran Guardian - Chapter 3692
Chapter 3670 The True Colors Are Revealed
On the immortal ship,
all one hundred Immortal Kings from the Miscellaneous Peaks were present.
Sect Leader Huang Liang was also among them.
Originally,
he didn’t want to go to the so-called Immortal Cliff Domain.
After all, a low-level Immortal Domain’s secret realm was no different from junk in Sect Leader Huang Liang’s eyes .
However ,
he couldn’t refuse the orders of the Miscellaneous Peaks elders.
Therefore,
to avoid exposing himself, Sect Leader Huang Liang had no choice but to go along.
After all, before he had prepared everything needed for the body-seizing, he naturally wanted to ensure everything went smoothly.
A trip to the Immortal Cliff Domain wasn’t a big problem.
Therefore,
Sect Leader Huang Liang simply went along with it.
Now,
listening to the conversations of the other Miscellaneous Peaks disciples, his expression remained calm, showing no emotional fluctuation.
“Junior Brother Fang doesn’t seem very interested in this secret realm?”
a voice came. Fang Du didn’t need to look to know who spoke.
He shook his head and smiled, “Junior Brother, I’m just worried about whether there are any dangers in this Immortal Cliff Domain secret realm.
Such a secret realm, suspected to be of ancient immortal origin, is probably not so simple.
“
Senior Brother Lin nodded in deep agreement, “You’re right. Ancient Immortal Realms are indeed extraordinary. Speaking of which, I once explored one with others. More than twenty Immortal Kings went in, but less than five came out alive.
The secret realm left by the ancient immortal wasn’t a source of inheritance at all; it was a trap deliberately set by the immortal.”
Senior Brother Lin finished speaking through gritted teeth.
Fang Du was speechless.
In his view, most of the secret realms in the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm were traps.
The reason was simple.
He sometimes liked to leave behind so-called secret realms to trap and kill other cultivators who entered.
His reason for doing so was purely for fun.
In reality,
how many people would truly be willing to leave behind a secret realm to benefit future cultivators?
Most cultivators were cunning and would leave behind a secret realm to accompany them in death.
Even now, there are still many secret realms he left behind in the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm, used to trap and kill other cultivators.
However, Sect Leader Huang Liang didn’t voice these thoughts.
“Judging from Senior Brother’s experience, could this secret realm also be a trap?”
Sect Leader Huang Liang raised an eyebrow.
Senior Brother Lin shook his head: “It’s hard to say, but even if it’s a trap, we’re not afraid. Our Nine Peaks have a total of nine hundred Immortal Kings. Let alone an ancient immortal secret realm, even a living ancient immortal would be enough to overwhelm it.
So, you and I don’t need to worry too much.
For us, the most important thing now is to see if we can find any opportunities in this ancient immortal secret realm!”
For cultivators of average talent like them, to advance further, they need sufficient opportunities.
Without great opportunities ,
the possibility of breaking through to the ancient immortal realm in the future is not high. This
is true for most cultivators in the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm.
This is why, even though many secret realms are huge pitfalls, many cultivators are willing to plunge in headfirst.
They are gambling, gambling that the secret realm isn’t a trap, but a true opportunity.
Hearing this,
Sect Leader Huang Liang remained noncommittal.
Seeing that he wasn’t very willing to talk, Senior Brother Lin didn’t say much more.
…
It took several months to travel from the Xuan Tian Dao Sect to the Immortal Cliff Domain.
When the immortal ship broke through the air and entered this immortal domain, many cultivators looked at the scene before them with complex expressions.
Mountains and rivers collapsed!
The earth cracked!
Thin immortal energy, and immortal mountains and cities reduced to ruins.
All these traces indicated that this immortal domain had completely become a desolate wasteland.
Without a long period of recuperation, it would be difficult to truly recover its vitality.
However,
despite this,
everyone quickly recovered.
This wasn’t the first time they had seen such a scene while traversing the immortal domain.
The immortal domains most affected by the Calamity of Calamity and the Dark Turmoil were those ranked lower.
These immortal domains were weak and had no ability to resist the calamity.
Even a slight calamity was enough to wipe out the life of an entire immortal domain.
As the immortal ship ventured deeper, a mountain range came into view, shimmering with celestial light and emanating a mysterious aura. The space itself seemed to distort and ripple slightly, as if something was hidden behind it.
“We’ve arrived!”
“This is the ancient immortal realm!”
“Be careful, don’t let this opportunity turn into a trap!”
Some cultivators were excited, but most remained calm.
As disciples of the Xuan Tian Dao Sect, they had seen much of the world. While an ancient immortal realm was precious to a Celestial King, it wasn’t something to be utterly coveted.
Soon,
the Celestial King disciples, led by Jiu Feng, discussed their options, and then entered the realm one after another.
The Yellow Liang Sect Leader also stepped into the realm. A spatial fluctuation came through, but sensing no threat, he didn’t resist.
But the next moment,
the spatial fluctuation dissipated.
The entrance to the realm vanished,
yet he remained in the same spot.
This scene
caused the Yellow Liang Sect Leader’s expression to change slightly; he reacted immediately.
Before he could make a move, a figure in purple robes slowly appeared.
“Sect Master… bah, how did you discover me?” The
Yellow Liang Sect Leader instinctively shouted, then realized his mistake and his expression turned cold.
Shen Changqing’s presence here spoke volumes.
Clearly,
the other party had discovered his whereabouts.
Those disciples who entered the secret realm were all transferred elsewhere by that spatial power, leaving only himself behind; his purpose was self-evident.
However,
what truly puzzled Huang Liang was that he believed he had concealed himself well enough that even a Nine Tribulation Half-Saint would find it difficult to detect anything.
How could a Celestial Emperor have discovered his problem?
Shen Changqing stood with his hands behind his back, his gaze towards Huang Liang filled with seriousness.
“From the moment you entered the Xuan Tian Dao Sect, I discovered you, but it was inconvenient to act within the sect.
However, I am more curious about what a dignified Nine Tribulation Half-Saint intends to do by infiltrating my Xuan Tian Dao Sect?
Furthermore… what is your identity?”
Shen Changqing did not immediately attack but instead voiced his many questions.
Upon hearing this,
Huang Liang smiled: “So, I underestimated you!”
He hadn’t expected a Celestial Emperor to possess such means to see through his disguise.
Then,
Huang Liang’s smile vanished, and his eyes turned icy.
“Since you know my strength, yet you still dare to come alone, do you think you can be my opponent with your own strength?” As
his words fell
, an invisible aura emanated from him, causing the vast immortal realm’s void to freeze. A powerful and terrifying pressure, like a towering mountain, pressed down on Shen Changqing.
“Boom!!”
The space instantly crumbled. The terrifying pressure made Shen Changqing feel his body sink, the void beneath his feet suddenly exploded, his blood and qi stagnated, and even his body, bearing the black armor, seemed unable to withstand the pressure.
Fortunately,
Shen Changqing ultimately withstood this pressure.
The black armor was, after all, a half-step second-grade innate imperial weapon.
Bearing such a treasure, his physical defense had correspondingly reached that level.
A ninth-tribulation half-saint was indeed terrifying.
But to say that he could suppress a half-saint with his own aura was impossible.
Seeing Shen Changqing block such power, the Yellow Liang Sect Master narrowed his eyes.
“Those cultivators who can reach this level in the Immortal Emperor realm are extremely rare throughout the countless years of the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm.
Originally, I didn’t want to act so quickly, waiting until I was fully prepared before possessing you.
Now that things have come to this, I have no more worries!”
Now,
the Yellow Liang Sect Master no longer wanted to waste time. So be it if
his identity was exposed.
As long as he suppressed this Xuan Tian Sword Master, he could slowly gather the necessary materials for possession later.
Besides,
suppressing and imprisoning the opponent would reduce many variables.
With this thought,
the Yellow Liang Sect Master immediately made his move. He took a step forward, and behind him, a vast river of the Great Dao surged forth, its terrifying Daoist power manifesting as the Great Dream Heavenly Monarch Dharma Form.
This technique resembled a Nine Heavens deity overlooking the mortal world, its vast and abyss-like power suppressing the entire Immortal Realm.
“Great Dream Heavenly Lord…you are a member of the Yellow Millet Divine Sect!”
The moment Shen Changqing saw this Dharma Image appear, all his remaining doubts were completely confirmed.
“That’s right…I, the Dream Lord, offer you my physical body; this is the greatest honor of your life!”
The Yellow Millet Sect Master no longer bothered to hide his identity; he spoke indifferently.
At the same time, the Great Dream Heavenly Lord Dharma Image behind him moved, its right hand, large enough to blot out the sky, grabbing down, intending to completely suppress Shen Changqing.
This terrifying power of a Nine Tribulation Half-Saint Realm expert, even before truly touching him, made Shen Changqing feel an extremely terrifying pressure.
Nine Tribulation Half-Saint!
This was the most powerful opponent he had ever faced.
Before the power of this attack had fully landed, Shen Changqing seemed to hear his own body and blood groaning; his proud foundation appeared weak and feeble in the face of absolute power.
However—
even so,
Shen Changqing was not afraid.
With a thought, he summoned the crimson immortal sword from his sea of consciousness, his immortal power surging towards it like a burst dam.
In a mere instant, Shen Changqing’s immortal power was completely depleted.
At the same time,
an ancient power, seemingly capable of severing countless ages, arose from the Soul-Destroying Sword, and an indistinct phantom appeared from the void.
This phantom gripped the hilt and casually swung its sword at the Yellow Liang Sect Leader.
This seemingly effortless strike silently shattered the void, the crimson sword light seemingly capable of piercing through the chaotic universe and severing all paths of heaven and earth.
The power of the Great Dream Heavenly Monarch’s Dharma Image couldn’t withstand even a single round against the crimson sword light, collapsing instantly.
An unprecedented sense of terror welled up from the Yellow Liang Sect Leader’s heart; his previous confidence vanished, replaced by horrified eyes. (End of Chapter)
