Just as Shenlang was searching cautiously, he suddenly saw a black dot in the distant horizon. As Shenlang got closer, the black dot became clearer.
When he saw the black dot clearly, Shenlang's expression changed.
It was a barren tree without a single leaf, but this tree was very strange. Its entire body exuded a majestic vitality. The vitality of a withered tree was even stronger than those towering ancient trees with luxuriant leaves. How could it not be strange?
"Parasol Tree."
Shenlang knew that the tree in front of him was the legendary Parasol Tree.
This Parasol Tree was no ordinary Parasol Tree. It was formed by the power of this world. If it was in the outside world, it could be considered a divine tree. The place where this Parasol Tree was located was the center of this world.
At this moment, there was a person sitting cross-legged under the Parasol Tree. His black hair was like a waterfall, and he was wearing a spotless white robe. His entire body was emitting a cold aura that kept people away.
Perhaps sensing Shenlang's arrival, that person's tightly shut eyes slowly opened.
As that person opened his eyes, flames spewed out from the sky and the ground. In an instant, a terrifying temperature swept across the entire world, turning the entire world into a sea of fire.
Shenlang released his True Qi to resist the terrifying heat and flames.
"You're here." That person said coldly, without a trace of emotion.
Seeing the person's face clearly, Shen Lang could not help but frown. This person actually looked exactly the same as Yan Ruyu. The only difference between the two of them was their temperament. Yan Ruyu's temperament belonged to the kind of temperament that was gentle with a hint of nobility. On the other hand, this person was cold, so cold that there was not a trace of emotion. He was like a god from the nine heavens, indifferent to all living things.
"You're Ruyu's previous life, right?" Shenlang asked calmly.
That person stood up slowly. As she stood up, the flames in the entire world began to dance.
"That's right. I'm her previous incarnation, the Zi Hua Immortal King." The Zi Hua Immortal King replied indifferently as he glared at Shenlang with a killing intent.
As if sensing the killing intent of Immortal King Zi Hua, the flames that enveloped the entire world began to gather towards Shenlang, preparing to burn Shenlang to ashes.
Shen Lang turned a blind eye to the strange movements of the flames and said fearlessly, "Where is Ruyu?"
"Are you talking about her?" Immortal King Zi Hua opened her palm and a ball of energy appeared in her hand.
Looking at Yan Ruyu's soul in the ball of energy, Shenlang nodded. "Yes, that's her."
"Hehe, people like them will die sooner or later. They are nothing more than sacrificial offerings." Immortal King Zi Hua closed his palms and kept Yan Ruyu's primordial spirit.
Shenlang shook his head and sighed. "If it was before you met me, Ruyu might have been a sacrificial offering. But after you met me, who knows who the sacrificial offering is?"
"Before I met you, I also met the reincarnation of an Immortal King. Unfortunately, that person insisted on going against me. Do you know the ending?"
Immortal King Zi Hua glanced at Shenlang indifferently. "Since you can stand here, the ending is already clear. However, you underestimate Immortal Kings too much. Even in the Immortal World, Immortal Kings are supreme existences. Since we are called Immortal Kings by others, it is a symbol of strength. Even in the Immortal World, there are only a handful of Immortal Kings. If it wasn't for that great battle that caused us to suffer heavy losses, mortals like you wouldn't even be able to see an Immortal King in your lifetime."
"Although there are people in the myriad of worlds who have reached the level of Immortals, they are only Immortals. And in order to become an Immortal King, the first factor is to have an Immortal Body. The second factor is to control more world energy."
"You come from the Zhenwu Continent of the five main worlds. The Transcendents of your world should be the so-called True God experts, right?"
Shen Lang didn't know what Transcending Stage expert Zi Hua was talking about, but he still knew about True God experts.
As if he could see through Shenlang's doubts, Immortal King Zi Hua slowly said, "The so-called Transcendents are existences that have surpassed the Great Dao."
Shenlang understood. Transcendents were indeed the specialty of True God experts. After all, True God experts were infinitely close to becoming Immortals. Their bodies had formed their own world, and they had already surpassed the Great Dao of the main worlds.
"And your so-called True God experts are nothing in the eyes of Immortal Kings like us. If we want to kill them, we only need to expend a little of our source energy."
Immortal King Zi Hua didn't know what he meant by saying this to Shenlang, but when Shenlang heard about the source energy, his heart skipped a beat. He understood the source energy too well, because he had it in his body. If not for that source energy, he definitely wouldn't have been able to reach his current realm so quickly.
Now, Shenlang was a little confused. Since the Immortal King valued the source energy so much, why did the guardian give it to him so generously? Wouldn't it be better for him to absorb it himself?
Shenlang used to be very grateful to the guardian, but now he was on guard. Who exactly was the guardian?
He did not believe that the guardian was just a chess piece of those people from the Immortal World. Since the guardian was able to obtain the Origin Energy, it meant that he was not simple. And if he could obtain one Origin Energy, he could obtain a second one. Now that he thought about it, Shen Lang felt a lingering fear. He had been too careless. Back then, the guardian's performance was indeed impeccable. He could not raise his guard at all.
And now, Shenlang felt that something was wrong. If the guardian was really as he said, and the old Empyrean of the Temple of Eternal Life could defeat him, then the guardian was too weak. An immortal and indestructible person who had lived even longer than the old Empyrean of the Temple of Eternal Life. Moreover, he had the ability to absorb the source energy. After so many years, how did he cultivate? Even if he was a pig, he should have become a spirit by now. How could he be surpassed by the old Empyrean?
Shenlang's thoughts flashed through his mind. He believed that these questions would slowly be solved. At that time, it would be clear who the guardian was.
The source energy was actually the source energy of thousands of worlds. Once a world's source energy was snatched away, it would quickly weaken. In the end, that world would gradually head towards destruction.
The Zhenwu Continent was like the source energy that was snatched away because the Zhenwu Continent was gradually declining. If it weren't for the appearance of the Diagram of the Heavenly Dao in the end and the slow repair of the world, the Zhenwu Continent might have died in the end.
However, for a main world like the Zhenwu Continent, the source energy should be very powerful. It might even have developed intelligence. It wasn't that easy to snatch the source energy of the main world. Even an Immortal King would find it difficult. Moreover, the powerhouses of the main world wouldn't allow it.
