The area enveloped by the dark clouds was much larger compared to any of the mountain ranges Qin Wentian had been to before. Qin Wentian would occasionally stop and occasionally sit down to comprehend. Just like this, three years passed and he still hadn't walked out of this space. However, he grew more and more sensitive to the laws of heaven and earth.
During these three years, he saw many different sceneries. He had no way to imagine how vast this ancient battlefield was. If there really was a great battle here, the number of experts who participated in that battle definitely wasn't something he could imagine.
At this moment, Qin Wentian sat before a gigantic tree. This gigantic tree was so tall that its roots reached the heavens. Even if a thousand people tried to wrap their arms around it, they might not be able to wrap their arms around it. This ancient tree exuded a terrifying law aura of destruction, forming a terrifying law domain around it.
Naturally, Qin Wentian suspected that this ancient tree itself was formed from laws. If he was to use Wu Xiu's cultivation base to classify it, this ancient tree would be a body of laws.
Qin Wentian sat there in cultivation, quietly sensing the flow of the laws of destruction, wanting to comprehend the language of the laws of destruction. After several months, he could already use the law energy of destruction in his body. Even if he didn't use his immortal-foundation, he could still create the law energy of destruction around him. This wasn't a small improvement and he knew that he was getting closer and closer to the realm he wanted to reach.
Qin Wentian closed his eyes. In his perception, in the formless space around him, black-colored destructive runes flowed uncontrollably. The him now, it was still very difficult for him to fully control them. If he could do that, he would be infinitely closer to the immortal king realm.
After a long time, Qin Wentian stood up and walked towards the gigantic tree. The closer he got, the stronger the destructive energy. Luckily, this gigantic tree wouldn't take the initiative to attack him or he would definitely be a peak-stage immortal king.
After walking to the front of the tree, Qin Wentian already felt that his body couldn't endure it any longer. If it wasn't for the fact that he also cultivated this energy, he wouldn't have dared to get so close.
Taking out a divine weapon, Qin Wentian stabbed it into the ancient tree. The sharpness of the divine weapon was incomparably sharp, but the law energy of destruction instantly corroded it. Qin Wentian immediately let go, causing the divine weapon to fall to the ground. The destructive qi flowed around it, Qin Wentian didn't dare to take it anymore. He lifted his foot and turned to leave.
Several months later, Qin Wentian came to a valley filled with dark clouds. This place was incomparably heavy, containing the law energy of gravity. Every step Qin Wentian took caused him to feel a sense of terror. It was extremely difficult for him to even lift his feet as he advanced step by step. His entire body was bent from the pressure. Finally, he saw the origin of the law energy of gravity. It was a gigantic boulder on the mountain. The shape of this boulder was extremely irregular, but it was extremely lustrous. There was actually a law light flowing around the surface of it.
"The heavens and earth are truly wondrous, able to create all sorts of miraculous sights. Could it be that the reason why life is born in this world, is it because there is a type of law energy in this world?" Qin Wentian suddenly had a thought as he mumbled. He sat on the ground and endured the terrifying gravity, quietly comprehending the law energy and the flow of it.
After a long time, he continued on his journey. On the way, he saw all sorts of miraculous sights, broadening his horizons.
Qin Wentian had already completely lost his sense of direction. He also didn't know where he was now. Luckily, he didn't encounter any dangers. It's just that ordinary people would find it hard to exit this place. However, he still had a trump card. If there was no other way, he could only use the Heavenly Talisman Realm to open a spatial tunnel to leave.
Another few years passed. Qin Wentian has been in the Darknorth Immortal Mountain for a very long time. Right now, his face was filled with the vicissitudes of life. This space seemed to have no end, there was no way for him to exit it forever. However, Qin Wentian still chose to cultivate here. There was no other place more suitable for him to cultivate.
This was a forbidden ground, a sacred ground for cultivation. Once he breaks through to the immortal king realm, he would open a spatial tunnel to leave this place.
"What a powerful suppressive aura." At this moment, Qin Wentian sensed an extremely tyrannical aura. He walked in that direction and after a long time, his steps halted as he stared at the sky in a daze.
"This …" Qin Wentian was speechless. In front of him, there were two gigantic stone monuments that radiated a boundless divine glow. Up in the sky, resplendent beams of light cascaded downwards, landing on the stone monuments. These beams of light were akin to the radiance of the constellations, illuminating the entire space, dispersing the clouds and revealing the sun.
"Don't tell me that this is Astral Resonance, directly borrowing the light from the nine heavenly layers." Qin Wentian felt incomparably shocked. This was the means of an immortal emperor. Right now, such a terrifying scene appeared on the two stone monuments. How could one not sigh in admiration?
"RUMBLE!" Abruptly, Qin Wentian discovered that he couldn't move at all. A supreme suppressive light bore down on him, causing his blood, flesh, tendons and bones to feel immense pressure. With a groan of misery, he coughed out fresh blood and directly slumped to the ground as his countenance turned pale.
Only to see one of the stone tablets moving. That's right, under Qin Wentian's shocked gaze, that gigantic stone tablet flew towards Qin Wentian as a pressure that could collapse the heavens gushed forth. However, it didn't land on Qin Wentian's body. He only felt a sense of terror. If not, he would have already died.
Qin Wentian's body gushed forth with suppressive might, but it was like an ant trying to shake a tree. When he saw the stone monument flying towards him, he only felt despair.
He didn't expect that he wouldn't die in the hands of the zombies but would die in the hands of a stone monument instead?
But at this moment, the stone monument suddenly halted. The gigantic monument actually shrunk to the size of a human and floated above Qin Wentian's head, stopping just like that.
Qin Wentian stared at this scene in astonishment. Could this stone monument have gained sentience? Could it be that it had intelligence?
With a flash, Qin Wentian stood up and fled. However, the stone monument followed right behind him and instantly caught up. Before Qin Wentian could take two steps, he was directly suppressed to the ground, causing him to cough out another mouthful of blood.
However, the stone tablet was still merciful and did not kill him. Otherwise, with how terrifying the stone tablet was, it could have destroyed him with a single attack and killed him right away.
"Junior unintentionally intruded into this place. If senior's spirit is here, please show mercy." Qin Wentian spoke. After that, he stood up and continued to flee. The light from the stone monument flowed and Qin Wentian only managed to take two steps before he was suppressed to the ground, unable to get up.
Qin Wentian didn't give up. He repeated the same thing over ten times and the bones in his body felt like they were about to break. He only felt incomparably depressed. This stone monument was clearly toying with him.
This time around, Qin Wentian who was lying on the ground formed a series of hand seals. A moment later, a spatial fluctuation gushed forth as the heavens and earth changed color. The stone monument trembled slightly as though it was looking at him.
"I mustn't open a spatial tunnel in front of others. This stone monument might have a spirit but it can't be considered a human." Qin Wentian recalled the rules of the Heavenly Talisman Realm as he mused in his heart.
"Bzz!" A terrifying pressure bore down on the spatial tunnel. However, the spatial tunnel still appeared there, it didn't collapse from the pressure. Qin Wentian dashed forward. This stone monument was too intelligent, he hoped that it wouldn't kill him directly. He could only go all out.
Abruptly, Qin Wentian brandished the demon sword as he flew towards the stone monument. His body flew towards the spatial passageway and just when he was about to step into it, a terrifying pressure bore down on him as the spatial passageway was actually forcefully closed.
"This …" Qin Wentian's countenance turned as pale as paper. The stone monument blasted the demon sword away and once again unleashed its might, Qin Wentian coughed out fresh blood. Qin Wentian was on the verge of collapse. Would this forbidden ground be his burial ground?
"RUMBLE!" An overwhelming pressure bore down on Qin Wentian, he was directly forced to the ground. Was this a dead end? He was filled with reluctance.
However at this moment, the pressure suddenly vanished without a trace. Qin Wentian was bewildered. He inclined his head and his heart trembled. In front of him, a silhouette appeared.
The long hair of this silhouette had already reached the ground, resembling a ghost.
"A living corpse?" Qin Wentian's eyes flickered. After which, he saw the silhouette turning around. The silhouette's face was also covered by the long hair, but a pair of pitch-black eyes could be seen, gleaming with a faint sharpness.
"A living corpse." Qin Wentian's heart trembled as he called out, "Senior."
"Return." That silhouette glanced at the stone monument. Momentarily, the stone monument flew over as a terrifying energy enveloped Qin Wentian. After which, his body was restrained and he couldn't move at all. He floated in the air, following behind the silhouette, his body completely out of his control.
"Is this person a human or a ghost? If he's a stellar martial cultivator, how strong is he?" Qin Wentian simply had no way to imagine. That stone monument was already extremely terrifying, it was actually able to absorb the astral radiance of the constellations. Yet, this person was able to repel it with a single sentence. Also, this person seemed to have been living in this secret realm for a very long time. How many years had he lived for?
Qin Wentian floated there, staring at the sky as intense waves rose in his heart. He walked past the two stone monuments only to see that the stone monument that chased after him earlier transformed back into a gigantic one, absorbing the astral radiance from the nine heavenly layers.
"Bzz!" Qin Wentian only felt his body being flung through the air. After which, he landed on the ground. That pressure vanished. He stood up and stared at the mysterious figure before him. However, the mysterious figure wasn't looking at him, but was staring ahead instead.
Qin Wentian also stared ahead. After which, his gaze froze. A majestic city had transformed into ruins. Numerous palaces could be seen there, but all of them were in ruins.
"I'll give you a year's time to cultivate here. If you can't break through to the immortal king realm, you shall die." That mysterious figure spoke before vanishing from sight.
Qin Wentian was astonished. Breaking through to the immortal king realm in a year's time? What did this mysterious figure mean by that?
Who was he exactly?
What secrets were hidden in this forbidden ground?
