When Qin Wentian woke up, many pieces of information appeared in his mind, including the words of that old freak. Even though he was unconscious, the voice of that undying freak was still imprinted in his mind. Qin Wentian cursed that undying freak in his heart.
"Undying Scripture, Death Scripture? What the hell are these? " Qin Wentian mumbled in his heart. He suddenly thought of those zombies. Could it be that they could revive the dead? This was impossible, it defied logic. Death was death, it was impossible to revive them. Those zombies were merely walking corpses, they had no thoughts of their own.
"Soul, that undying freak could actually force my soul out of my body and even return it to its original location." Qin Wentian thought back to his earlier experience as his back was drenched in cold sweat. Even now, he still felt terror in his heart. If the undying freak wanted his life, it would be as easy as flipping his palm. The strength of this undying freak had already surpassed Qin Wentian's comprehension.
Given his current cultivation base, even if immortal emperors wanted to kill him, they wouldn't be able to do so silently. They would have to unleash their strength first. Even for peak-stage immortal emperors, they would have to use the laws of the heavens and earth to deal with him. But this undying freak was able to kill with just a single voice. Even if his soul left his body, he could easily destroy it. This was simply too terrifying.
If Qin Wentian had to describe this undying freak, he would only be able to say that he was unfathomable.
Qin Wentian closed his eyes and calmed his heart to comprehend the Undying Scripture. Very swiftly, he understood what sort of cultivation art the Undying Scripture was. It was a soul cultivation art.
Although he had never come into contact with a soul cultivation art before, this Undying Scripture was definitely a supremely terrifying soul cultivation art.
There was no one in the world who couldn't die. Regardless of their body or soul, as long as they existed, they could be destroyed. It was just a matter of whether one's strength was sufficient or not. This Undying Scripture naturally didn't mean that one wouldn't die if they cultivated it. It was just that the terrifying part of the Undying Scripture was that if one cultivated it to the extreme, even if their body was destroyed, their soul wouldn't be destroyed. In fact, there were many other terrifying effects, such as the ability to reconstruct one's body.
Of course, this was not the only use of the Undying Scripture. It was an extremely perfect soul-type cultivation art.
"Why do I feel that from the very beginning, I was dragged here by that undying freak as a scheme?" Qin Wentian mumbled. If it wasn't for the undying freak's intentional actions, how could he still be alive now?
"Maybe it's because my talent is outstanding, unparalleled in the heavens and earth, and the old pervert has taken a fancy to my talent. He doesn't want to enter the world and hopes to find an outstanding successor, so he deliberately makes things difficult for me?" Qin Wentian shamelessly mused. After which, he felt that the possibility of this happening was extremely high. He involuntarily nodded his head, "That must be the case. After all, there are too few people like me with such outstanding talent. That old freak must have never met one before."
"Mhm, but luckily that undying freak didn't say that he wanted me to join his power and didn't accept me as a disciple. Most probably, he knows his own limits and isn't qualified to be my master. This can't be considered breaking the rules of the Heavenly Talisman Realm. After my cultivation base reaches grand completion, I will find him to settle the debt." Qin Wentian continued to shamelessly think. If the old freak knew of his shameless thoughts right now, he wondered if he would directly separate his soul from his body.
Lowering his head and staring at the divine weapon on the ground, Qin Wentian felt panic in his heart. His earlier experience was simply too tragic. Right now, he still felt a lingering fear in his heart. Seems like he had to focus on cultivating the Undying Scripture. If not, the next time he tried to use it, he would definitely suffer a fate worse than death.
As he thought of this, Qin Wentian closed his eyes and calmed his heart. He began to cultivate the Undying Scripture, starting from the most basic point of comprehending the existence of the soul.
Because he had never come into contact with soul cultivation before, his starting speed was extremely slow. Before this, he had never truly sensed the existence of the soul, nor did he pay attention to the connection between the soul and the fleshly body. Only when he grabbed the divine weapon earlier did he truly sense the existence of the soul.
The soul residing within the fleshly body was extremely weak. If it left the body, it would be easily destroyed. Once the soul was destroyed, the fleshly body would become a dead body. There was no meaning to it. Hence, the soul of a cultivator would always exist alongside the fleshly body, inseparable.
Luckily, Qin Wentian had a similar experience in the past. In that case, the first step wasn't too difficult. He used a period of time to sense the existence of the soul, knowing where it was and controlling its existence. Only then would he be able to cultivate his soul.
Qin Wentian once again entered a state of oblivion, unaware of the flow of time. Before this, he didn't expect that after he broke through to the immortal king realm, he would continue to cultivate here. After comprehending his law domain, he continued to cultivate his soul. His experiences during this period of time were truly bizarre.
Luckily, the old freak already promised him that as long as he could obtain the divine weapon, the old freak would let him leave. This day would eventually come and at that time, he would be able to leave this forbidden ground.
Over ten years passed by in the blink of an eye. He had no idea what was going on in the outside world. Let's hope that there wasn't a huge commotion. After all, immortal wars between peak powers were a very long process. Before there was an extremely strong provocation, emperor-ranked battles wouldn't erupt. Back then, the Skymist Alliance felt that victory was already in their grasp and directly suppressed the Evergreen KingdomPalace. Now, both sides had already reached a certain level of strength and didn't dare to act recklessly.
This time around, his cultivation speed was the slowest. Even when he broke through to the immortal king realm and comprehended his law domain, it wasn't so slow. After all, the cultivation of energy was something that could be traced, it was a sublimation of one's strength. However, the cultivation of the soul was like starting from a blank piece of paper. This was extremely difficult. The Undying Scripture was something that complemented the other unique ability of his seventh astral soul. He had to comprehend it well as it would surely be of great use to him in the future.
As he cultivated, Qin Wentian's soul energy grew stronger and stronger. In the end, he was able to allow his soul to leave his body and even caused his soul to shine with corporeal light. This was simply shocking. It was unknown how many times stronger his soul was compared to before he started cultivating the Undying Scripture.
Finally, one day, after many failures, Qin Wentian finally picked up the divine weapon and held it firmly. Although his soul was still shaken greatly, he was already able to reduce the impact to the minimum.
The figure of the undying old freak appeared. He stared at Qin Wentian and shook his head, "You actually used such a long time. How disappointing, too weak. If I knew this would happen, I would have set a time limit for you."
The moment Qin Wentian saw this undying old freak, he felt his blood boiling as he gritted his teeth in hatred.
"Why? Do you have any objections?" The voice of the undying old freak turned cold. In an instant, Qin Wentian felt his soul trembling. "How would junior dare?"
"Ai, it's good that you know you don't dare to. After cultivating here for so many years, your strength has improved greatly. This is all because of me, I don't need you to feel grateful. Just accompany me here for eight to ten years and chat with me before you leave." The words of the undying old freak instantly caused Qin Wentian's eyes to roll back. He almost collapsed to the ground, foaming at the mouth.
"This, this …" Qin Wentian wanted to die. Stay here with this undying old freak for eight to ten years? Chat? Even if he didn't die, he would go crazy.
However, if this undying old freak really had such thoughts, the pitiful Qin Wentian basically had no strength to resist.
"Not willing?" The undying old freak combed his long hair, revealing a pair of eyes and a pale old face. He stared at Qin Wentian, "Do you know how many people want to see me but are rejected? For countless years, I've only seen you and that little lass, yet you are still unwilling to stay with me? If you accompany me for eight to ten more years, your cultivation base would definitely improve."
Qin Wentian's gaze flickered, he suddenly wavered. If he could really improve his strength, he could consider sacrificing himself.
"Don't even think about it. Right now, even if you beg me to stay here, I won't agree. Scram, scram." The undying old freak waved his hand. Instantly, Qin Wentian felt his body rising uncontrollably into the air. His speed was inconceivably fast, as though he was shuttling through space. Terrifying gusts of wind whistled through the air.
"BOOM!" Qin Wentian's body directly slammed into the ground, creating a large crater. He cursed in a low voice as his silhouette flickered and leaped out of the crater, his eyes narrowing as he stared at Qin Wentian.
"This …"
Qin Wentian stared ahead. He actually returned to the place where he entered the forbidden ground, the periphery of the Darknorth Immortal Mountain.
That undying old freak waved his hand and blasted him back. This undying old freak was too monstrous.
Without any warning, Qin Wentian was blasted back.
Those guards glanced at Qin Wentian as their gazes abruptly froze. Qin Wentian had actually returned. Wasn't he one of those who entered the forbidden ground tens of years ago? He actually managed to come back alive?
An immortal-foundation expert, he entered the forbidden ground and didn't die?
Qin Wentian didn't care about their strange gazes. He stared in the direction of the forbidden ground as he sighed in his heart.
After a moment of silence, Qin Wentian bowed in the direction of the forbidden ground as he silently mused, "Old freak, I hope you can wait until I have enough strength to enter the forbidden ground again. At that time, I will definitely fight a great battle against you."
After bowing for a long time, he stood up. After that, he elegantly turned and walked towards the exit of the Darknorth Immortal Mountain.
His silhouette flickered, Qin Wentian's speed was extremely fast, passing through the mountains one after another. After that, he came to the peak of a mountain and stared at a figure before him.
This figure quietly sat on the mountain, playing a zither. The melody contained a feeling of longing, as though the person playing the zither had always been waiting for someone. Qin Wentian quietly stood there, staring at the beautiful melody as a faint smile could be seen on his face.
He didn't expect that for this trip to the immortal mountains, he would be together with Zhiyin. Both of them broke through to the immortal king realm. This was truly a stroke of good fortune.
The zither melody continued on unceasingly until it naturally came to an end. Only then did the melody gradually dissipate. Zhiyin's beautiful eyes opened as a radiant smile could be seen. She stared at Qin Wentian, "I knew you would return. Hence, I have been waiting here for you."
"Why did you wait for me?" Qin Wentian shook his head and smiled.
"Since we came together, we will naturally leave together." Zhiyin spoke in a light voice. Her reason was extremely simple, yet it seemed to be very logical.
"Let's go." Qin Wentian smiled. After that, Zhiyin stood up and the two of them walked side by side, heading towards the exit.
Outside the Darknorth Immortal Mountain, there was an expert who saw Zhiyin and Qin Wentian coming out. After that, he couldn't help but to be startled. After that, he spoke, "The two of you, Princess Nongyue has given the order. If the two of you come out, immediately inform her. Princess Nongyue will personally come over."
"Princess is too polite." Qin Wentian smiled. He stared at Zhiyin, "In that case, let's wait here for Beiming Nongyue."
"Right." Zhiyin nodded.
