"Senior, why are you stopping us from entering the Immortal Realm? Aren't you letting us in to increase the Immortal Realm's power? "Shen Lang looked at the old man in confusion.
The old man laughed bitterly. "Not everyone can become an immortal. The Immortal Realm is the end of all the worlds. If you can become an immortal, you can control all the worlds. Every time an immortal is born, there will be a redistribution of benefits. This is why we don't allow people to become immortals. I'm just following orders."
Shen Lang understood now. It turned out that immortals were also selfish. It was just like the Zhenwu Continent back then. The Central Plains was firmly controlled by the 21 major forces, and no one was allowed to interfere. There were only 21 of them. If not for the appearance of the Eternal Life Palace later on, secretly destroying the alliance between the 21 major forces and the rise of the Underworld, the Zhenwu Continent would probably still be under the control of the 21 major forces.
The Zhenwu Continent was a microcosm of the Immortal Realm. The Hades and the Temple of Eternal Life were the new immortals. When they appeared, the alliance of benefits between the 21 major powers was broken. It was the same with the emergence of new immortals in the Immortal Realm. The benefits were redistributed.
"Senior, are all immortals the same strength?" Shen Lang continued to ask.
The old man looked at the sky warily and whispered, "Their strength is basically the same. Only a few old immortals who were born in the Immortal Realm may be stronger under the support of the power of the worlds, but there is a limit. Immortals are the strongest in the world. There is no distinction between realms and levels."
Shen Lang nodded in understanding. "Then senior, you have the strength of an immortal?"
The old man laughed bitterly. "Little friend, you're wrong. There is an Immortal Transformation Pool between the Immortal Realm and mortals. If you want to transform mortals into immortals, you'll shed your mortal shell and become an immortal body. Then you'll be immortal and indestructible. When you attack, you'll have the power of an immortal.
"As for me, I can be considered the pinnacle of martial arts. I can't be considered an immortal."
Shenlang was shocked. He finally understood the difference between immortals and mortals. A Demolisher could be considered half-immortals, and each of their attacks contained the power to destroy worlds. But compared to a true immortal, who could destroy millions upon millions of worlds with a wave of their hand, they were nothing.
"Alright, I've said everything that needs to be said. If you're free, would you like to play a game of chess with me?"
The old man invited.
Of course, Shenlang wouldn't refuse. Even if he didn't take into account that the old man had told him so much, he still had to take into account the old man's strength. If he made the old man unhappy and killed him with a slap, he would really be wronged.
Shenlang had a lot on his mind. The old man's words had already washed away his joy of breaking through. There was a huge difference between immortals and mortals. So, immortals were the true rulers of the world. It seemed like he had to increase his strength quickly. After all, the old man had told him how strong the first Heavenly Sovereign was. If he didn't have enough strength before the first Heavenly Sovereign returned, he might have to kneel.
Muddleheaded, he played a game of chess with the old man. The old man shook his head and smiled. "Little friend, you have too many things on your mind. I won't waste your time. Seeing that you've given me so much face, I'll give you a good fortune."
The old man stretched his hand out and the surrounding mists instantly roiled. Next, a strand of extremely formidable essence energy took shape on the old man's palm. "This is essence energy. Although it is nothing much in the Immortal Plane, it is very rare in the myriad of planes. I will give it to you now, little friend. Hopefully, it will be able to help you."
Boom!!!
The Qi of Origin was instantly injected into Shenlang's glabella by the old man. Shenlang's Insightful Emptiness Realm suddenly rose again. In the blink of an eye, he broke through to the Immortal Martial Realm.
Seeing that Shenlang had broken through to the Immortal Martial Realm, the old man smiled. "I'll give you two things."
"Heaven Slayer, Earth Destroyer, come out."
As the old man's voice fell, the entire dreamland suddenly shook. Then, two rays of light shot up into the sky. A longsword with a sword intent and a saber that emitted a destructive aura appeared in the air.
"They were nurtured by me using the Qi of Origin here. Although they can't be considered divine weapons, they're much stronger than ordinary divine weapons."
The two saber and sword seemed to know their fate. Suddenly, they cut through space and appeared in front of Shenlang.
Looking at the two saber and sword, Shenlang couldn't help but get excited. These two saber and sword could definitely be considered as the top divine weapons in the Zhenwu Continent.
There were no divine weapons in the Zhenwu Continent. The only ones that could be called divine weapons were the weapons of the True God experts in the Immemorial Era, such as the Executing Heaven Sword, Green Dragon Heaven Slaying Saber, etc.
Those weapons were only at the pinnacle of the Heaven Tier. It was only because their owners were gods that they were given the title of divine weapons.
"Heaven Slayer, Earth Destroyer."
Shenlang murmured.
The saber and sword chimed together, as though answering Shenlang's call.
"Senior, I'll definitely repay you in the future."
Although Shenlang had a cold personality, he wouldn't let go of some karma. After all, the old man had provided him with too much help. If he had the strength, he would definitely repay the old man.
The old man nodded his head. With a wave of his hand, Shenlang exited the dreamland.
When Shenlang tried to enter the dreamland again, there was no response.
"What's going on? Could it be that I can't go there in the future? "
Shenlang didn't think too much about it. Perhaps that place was temporarily sealed by the old man. When he was strong enough, he would find a way in.
This was because he knew that it was the Road to Immortality. If the first Celestial Master could enter, so could he.
Looking at the Heaven Slayer and Earth Destroyer that had restrained their light, Shenlang couldn't help but smile.
The weapon box opened and the saber and sword disappeared in front of Shenlang. Now, Shenlang had a total of four sabers and swords in the weapon box.
They were the Heaven Slayer, Earth Destroyer, Snow Drinker, and the Unparalleled Sword.
After He Tianxing and Jing Weizhuang, the head of Qingcheng School, were killed, the Unparalleled Sword was sent to him by the Empress. However, the Unparalleled Sword was too sensitive, so Shenlang had never used it. He had been looking for a sword that could replace the Unparalleled Sword. Now that he had the Heaven Slayer and Earth Destroyer, he could finally relieve the pressure.
In fact, Shenlang still didn't understand the power of the Heaven Slayer and Earth Destroyer. The saber and sword that the old man gave him could be said to be the best divine weapon below the immortal weapon. Even the Xuantianxie Emperor's Constellation Calamity and Guilt Madness might not be stronger than the Heaven Slayer and Earth Destroyer.
...
Half a year had passed since the Hades annihilated the Blood Demon Sect and Kōshū. Shenlang didn't rush to cultivate after breaking through to the Immortal Martial Arts Realm. He needed to stabilize his foundation and continue to use the Power of the Origin to break through. Anyway, the Power of the Origin had always been in his body. If he wanted to refine it, he could do so at any time.
The Power of the Origin that the old man gave him wasn't completely absorbed. It was only a small part. He estimated that if he refined all of the Power of the Origin, he should be able to reach the Void-breaking Realm or even the True God Realm.
The residual shadow of the first Celestial Master he met on the last step should have been left behind by him. His purpose should be to monitor the situation on the Road to Immortality so that he could understand the situation at any time and adjust his countermeasures.
