Qin Wentian stared at the disappearing silhouette of the other party. He thought back to the words spoken to him earlier as his heart trembled.
Within the forbidden ground, the major characters of the immortal realms came here to explore, thinking that they would be able to unravel the secrets within. But little did they know that everything was actually controlled by this mysterious character. The places he saw were only the places he wanted others to see. He didn't act to kill or no matter which major character entered the forbidden ground, only death awaited them.
This mysterious character, was the true king of the forbidden ground.
Expelling the distracting thoughts in his heart, Qin Wentian calmed his heart and drew in a deep breath. After that, he continued his cultivation journey.
"There's a dao in the heavens and earth, I need to explore it." Qin Wentian mumbled as he strolled around the city. Every time he came to a terrifying place, he would sit down and comprehend, sensing the flow of the runic patterns in the world, feeling how the laws were born. Gradually, he tried to control them, to evolve them, to forge his own dao of laws.
The city was boundlessly vast, like another world within the forbidden ground. If this place really belonged to a power of the past, Qin Wentian didn't dare to imagine how strong this power was. Most probably, it was a supreme power of the ancient era. In that era, were there ancient emperors? There definitely were.
In fact, Qin Wentian was thinking that in this era, were there really no ancient emperors at all? Just because they didn't go out, it didn't mean that they didn't exist. They might be hiding in the world and even if they truly existed, they couldn't be considered a symbol of an era.
Time flowed by, Qin Wentian has already been in the forbidden ground for several years. During this period of time, undercurrents flowed in the Eastern Regions. Although the major powers didn't directly erupt into war, there would occasionally be some small-scale battles. For example, the disciples of the Evergreen Kingdom clashed with others when they roamed the outside world. But because they were scattered in different locations, it was inconspicuous. But there were already many disciples of the Evergreen Kingdom who went out to temper themselves, or even those with nobility level, who lost their lives in battles.
In this case, it was extremely abnormal. Evidently, someone had acted, slowly nibbling away at the power of the Evergreen Kingdom, weakening it.
This kind of battle seemed to be invisible, but in reality, it was extremely dangerous. It was a surging undercurrent, and once it erupted, it could be world-shaking.
Qin Wentian vanished. The people of the Eastern Regions had no idea where he went. There were rumors saying that back then, he returned to the Immortal Qianbian Gate from the Evergreen Kingdom and entered closed-door seclusion. It seemed that he was preparing to break through to the immortal king realm.
Therefore, during this period of time, the Immortal Qianbian Gate did not have an easy time. The Dongshengxian Gate began an expedition on a larger scale than before. Armies led by many Immortal Kings began to invade and attack the cities at the borders of the major cities, gradually nibbling away at the territory of the Immortal Qianbian Gate.
As for the Immortal Qianbian Gate, they mainly adopted a defensive stance, retreating step by step. As for the Dongshengxian Gate, they were extremely aggressive. In fact, among these invading immortal kings, the Immortal Qianbian Gate could even sense the presence of experts that didn't belong to the Dongshengxian Gate.
However, although both sides were well aware of this, there was nothing they could do. Now that the situation has already been set, unless immortal emperors stepped out to initiate a final battle, they could only compete with each other in terms of strength.
Battles in the immortal realms would often be drawn-out battles. And clearly, a conflict has already erupted in the Eastern Regions. Sooner or later, a drastic change would occur.
At the same time, in the Immortal Qianbian Gate, Qin Wentian's family and friends were all entrusted by Qin Wentian to the Emperor Of Qianbian, silently sending them to various places for cultivation.
In a certain immortal mountain in the Eastern Regions, there was an immortal-emperor-ranked power named the Unaging Immortal Mountain.
The lord of this mountain was an extremely ancient immortal emperor. In fact, his age was even older compared to Eastern Sage and Emperor Of Qianbian. However, his cultivation base was extremely low, stuck at the initial-stage of the immortal emperor realm. Hence, although it was an immortal-emperor-ranked power, it couldn't be considered the hegemon of the Eastern Regions.
In addition, the Unaging Immortal Emperor didn't seem to have any ambitions. He was proficient in concocting immortal pills. Hence, the other major powers didn't dare to offend him and maintained a friendly attitude.
Hence, the Unaging Immortal Mountain was like a piece of pure land in the Eastern Regions. It was similar to the God Hand Mountain Manor before Emperor Yu was exposed, quietly standing in the Southern Regions. It was just that Emperor Yu's manor didn't accept disciples. Emperor Yu was a hermit and had always concealed his cultivation base. His purpose of staying there was to silently guard the entrance of the Battle Saint Tribe.
The Unaging Immortal Emperor was different. He had many disciples and on the mountain, there were many ancient peaks. Each peak was filled with the disciples and grand-disciples of the Unaging Immortal Emperor.
In one of the ancient peaks in the Unaging Immortal Mountain, there were waves of commotion during these years.
It was only because a few years ago, a disciple of the Unaging Immortal Mountain Manor came here. This disciple was extremely beautiful with a single glance. Her beauty was unparalleled, like a celestial maiden, causing many females to be jealous and males to be in love with her.
It was fine if it was merely her beauty. But after that, she also displayed shocking talent in the dao of alchemy and was highly regarded by her master, treating her as a treasure.
At this moment, this female stood before the cliff of the ancient peak, staring at the clouds ahead. Her beautiful eyes seemed to be staring into space, as though she was in a daze, as though she was thinking of some people, some things.
"Qingcheng." At this moment, a beautiful female walked over and stood beside her. Staring at her perfect profile, she smiled, "Staring at the clouds in a daze again, who are you thinking of?"
"Senior sister." Mo Qingcheng smiled lightly but didn't reply. She was nameless and although she was Qin Wentian's wife, other than the people of the Immortal Qianbian Gate, not many people knew of her existence. Let alone here. Although the Monarch arranged for her to come here, she didn't borrow the Monarch's name and relied on herself to enter the Unaging Immortal Mountain for cultivation. Hence, no one knew of her.
However, even if they didn't know of her, it didn't mean that they didn't know of Qin Wentian's name. Right now, this name was extremely famous in the Eastern Regions. Even in the Unaging Immortal Mountains, there might be people who have heard of him before.
"A few senior brothers from the main peak came here again. Who doesn't know of their intentions? Ever since you came here, the frequency of them coming here has clearly increased. Qingcheng, your charm is truly great." That beautiful female smiled. Mo Qingcheng's expression didn't change at all. She merely smiled and continued staring at the clouds in a daze.
"Senior sister, I came to the Unaging Immortal Mountains only for the sake of cultivation. I don't wish to be disturbed by mundane matters." Mo Qingcheng spoke in a low voice. She knew how outstanding Qin Wentian was. Although she didn't wish to catch up to his footsteps, at the very least, she mustn't remain at the same level and should continue moving forward. Only then would her cultivation base not fall too far behind and wouldn't wither away in the future. Naturally, if she could be of some help to him, that would be for the best.
She had also put in a lot of effort when she came here, focusing wholeheartedly on pill concoction. Although her talent couldn't be compared to Qin Wentian, after Qin Wentian's meticulous modifications and the baptism of the Sacred Luminance, she was also someone who had entered the Tiandao Sacred Academy and listened to the dao lectures there. Even in the Unaging Immortal Mountains, she could still be considered extremely outstanding.
"But there are a few senior brothers who are doted on by the ancestor. Junior sister, don't you want to consider them?" That female smiled.
Mo Qingcheng shook her head and didn't say anything. That female then spoke, "In that case, I won't disturb junior sister any longer."
After speaking, she turned and left, arriving at another location where many young men could be seen.
"Is junior sister Mo not here?" A young man asked.
"Junior sister Mo has an empire-toppling countenance and outstanding talent. However, she looks down on all of you senior brothers and has no time to entertain you all." That female smiled, causing the expressions of the young men here to change.
"Hmph, thinking too highly of yourself. You only want to chat and you actually dare to put on airs." A person coldly snorted and flicked his sleeves as he departed.
Mo Qingcheng naturally didn't know what happened behind her. She was still staring at the clouds. Extraordinary people were destined to be admired, envied and envied by others. She just didn't care about all of these. It was just that she didn't know how Qin Wentian was doing now. She missed him very much.
From the clouds, a handsome face appeared. Mo Qingcheng also had a smile on her face that could topple the world.
He was so outstanding and would definitely break through to the immortal king realm soon. She had always believed in him.
Just like what Mo Qingcheng had expected, Qin Wentian was indeed working hard. At this moment, he was sitting cross-legged in a dilapidated palace. Not far away from him, a gigantic long spear was stabbed into the ground. A terrifying aura of destruction permeated the surroundings, enveloping an extremely vast area.
"Law, law." With an intention of his will, the destructive energy in the surroundings started to flow according to Qin Wentian's will. After that, the destructive energy flowed towards his body, entering his immortal-foundation.
At this moment, Qin Wentian suddenly stopped. He opened his eyes, gleaming with sharpness.
"It's done. I'm only left with the final step." Qin Wentian stood up. His silhouette flashed as he found a spacious area. There were no law attribute auras here to disturb him. Only by doing so would he be able to rely on himself to form a law attribute that belonged to him.
"There are still a few more months. I hope I can make it in time for the final step." Qin Wentian closed his eyes and sat down, sensing the dao of heaven and earth in the surroundings. After that, under the control of his immortal sense, the space around him started flowing. His long robes fluttered and there seemed to be a formless flow of energy in this space. It couldn't be seen or touched and could only be sensed.
"RUMBLE!" He released his astral soul. It was an ancient halberd of destruction. In just an instant, the law attribute energy was unleashed, gradually fusing into his immortal-foundation. Although his immortal-foundation already had laws, if he wanted to become an immortal king, he had to create his own law domain, astral soul, and body of laws.
This was a very long process. Qin Wentian used his immortal sense to communicate, wanting to form a resonance. The energy in the surroundings flowed unceasingly, as though there was a pattern to it. Gradually, these currents formed a connection with Qin Wentian, resonating with him. After that, a black-colored current of destruction appeared. Although it was only a trace, it was a huge breakthrough.
Qin Wentian suppressed the excitement in his heart and continued to sense. At this moment, he was only a step away from the immortal king realm!
