(Chapter 1, Arrived! 6,000 Words!) Chapter 472 – The Saintess!
"Longevity Palace?" Xuanyuan's heart skipped a beat when he heard that. He recalled that along the way, the Longevity Immortal Aura covered hundreds of miles and was extremely vast. Being enveloped by the Longevity Immortal Aura, it made sense for it to be called the Longevity Palace. ()
"What kind of place is the Longevity Palace?"
"In the primordial era, there was a Daoist known as the Longevity Daoist. He was the personal disciple of the founder of the Emergence Dao Sect. His strength was extraordinary and was comparable to a Great Emperor. Could this Longevity Palace be related to the Longevity Daoist?" The Great Pig could not hide the shock in his eyes as he mumbled to himself. It was obvious that he had never seen the Longevity Daoist before and everything was just his guess.
Xuanyuan and the rest came to the walls of the Longevity Palace and looked at the stone paintings that were carved by people using great magical powers. On the paintings, there were the humans fighting against the Primordial Alien Races, the humans fighting against the Heavenly Dao, the humans working hand in hand to overcome natural disasters, epidemics, floods, earthquakes, and many other scenes. The brushstrokes were like dragons and snakes, and the strokes were like iron and silver hooks. They were vivid and realistic. However, due to the erosion of time, some of the paintings on the walls were already weathered and blurred, and some could not be seen clearly.
Xuanyuan felt something. He closed his eyes and used his hands to caress the carvings on the walls. Through the deep scratches, he could feel a resonance that intertwined with the Heavenly Dao. It was as if he was carving the Force Pattern himself, using his own willpower and spirit to understand the Dao of Heaven and Earth.
Even though these stone carvings contained the mysteries of the terrain, every stroke was a profound path. The carvings depicted a kind of understanding of the life and death of the ancient races, a kind of comprehension of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth. It was boundlessly beneficial.
In front of this Longevity Palace, Xuanyuan felt that he had become so insignificant. In the face of history, everything had become too insignificant. Xuanyuan stood in front of the stone paintings. It was as if he could see millions of soldiers and horses, the deafening battle cries, the millions of corpses, the flowing blood, and the flames of war. The entire world seemed to lose its color. It was an illustration of the era when thousands of races coexisted, and the momentum of conquering the world!
That was an era where kings rose in droves. It was a grand flourishing age in the world of battle qi. It was the golden age of life. There were sacred ancestors, god-kings, and great emperors of the ancient races. All of them stood out from the rest, slaughtering their way out of this world of battle qi!
"Xuan Xuan, what are you thinking?" Qian Duoduo looked at Xuanyuan with an intoxicated and infatuated expression. She felt that Xuanyuan might have been bewitched by the patterns on the stone paintings because he had been looking at them for three days and three nights without moving. Qian Duoduo used the Immortal Awakening Tone of the Myriad Treasures Gold Amassing Great Immortal Art.
Xuanyuan was jolted awake by Qian Duoduo's call. It was as if he had woken up from a dream. In an instant, he understood what was going on. He broke out in a cold sweat and heaved a sigh of relief.
He smiled and said, "On the stone paintings on the walls of the palace, there are insights intertwined with the Heavenly Dao when the ancestors carved them. Unknowingly, people were immersed in them. Thanks to Miss Qian, otherwise, I might not have been able to hear it after a long time!"
Xuanyuan looked not far away and saw many new corpses. They were all people who entered this place later. Obviously, they were also attracted by the stone paintings. Xuanyuan even saw some people standing dead in front of the stone paintings. It could be imagined how much magic was contained in the stone paintings. For those who cultivated fighting and killing techniques, these might be as simple as a painting. However, for those who cultivated in 'Shi' or 'Stone Techniques', they were extremely rare treasures. Those who could enter the 'Profound Frost Mountain Domain' were not weak. In particular, their attainments in 'Shi' were stronger than Xuanyuan's. Otherwise, they would not have been able to enter this place.
Along the way, Xuanyuan discovered that many of the terrains had already been deciphered by others. Otherwise, it would not have been so easy for him to enter.
"These stone paintings are both a blessing and a curse. If someone can gain enlightenment from them, then it is a blessing. If they fall into it and are unable to escape, then it will be an endless disaster. It seems that countless people have already proven this point." Xuanyuan sighed with emotion. Those who could enter this place were all people with great attainments in 'Shi'.
"My husband, did you fall into it just now?" Hwang Yue-chan covered her mouth and laughed.
"Yes, I learned a lot of things. When I was inscribing, there was a mysterious feeling when I converged with the Dao of Heaven and Earth, causing the world to resonate and the Dao to sense it. I believe that my cultivation of 'Shi' will improve in the future." Xuanyuan was overjoyed.
Xuanyuan walked towards the people who had died in front of the stone paintings. He originally wanted to obtain something from them, but too many years had passed. Everything they had turned to dust with a light touch from Xuanyuan. Xuanyuan returned in disappointment. It would be great if he could obtain some 'Shi' from these people. That way, he would be able to make the Exalted Sutra even more perfect. One had to know that the Exalted Sutra had so many powerful 'Shi's, and they were all collected and organized by the Exalted Immortal Emperor along the way.
"Alright, kid, you've seen it all. Hurry up and enter the 'Longevity Palace'. It seems that the secret of longevity is inside. Otherwise, why would there be so many people fighting and killing each other? It's not as simple as the extermination of an entire clan."
The Great Pig was very excited. However, the terrifying murderous intent and cold currents were enough to threaten a Life Immortal expert. Xuanyuan had Emperor Yingtian's sackcloth, while Hwang Yue-chan and Qian Duoduo each had a leg of the wooden bed that Emperor Yingtian slept on. He didn't even have a single hair, so he naturally didn't dare to leave the range of the Great Emperor's aura.
Hearing Xuanyuan's words, Xuanyuan's heart burned with passion. The secret of longevity was more precious than many treasures. When people were old, they couldn't maintain the vigor of their qi and blood. Their strength would weaken, and they wouldn't be able to compare to when they were at their peak. For example, the War God of Sengoku's qi and blood had already declined. If his qi and blood were vigorous, he would only be stronger. The feeling of not aging would give people more virtue and enlightenment. When the qi and blood began to decline, the hero would be past his prime. It would be even more difficult to break through.
Walking along the palace walls, they arrived at the entrance of the 'Longevity Palace'. It was a thousand meters tall and a hundred meters wide. The ground was littered with rubble. The door of the 'Longevity Palace' had long been destroyed by force. It was wide open, and there was nothing that could stop anyone from entering.
Walking through the door and into the 'Longevity Palace', they saw ghostly spirits wandering around. Their faces were ferocious, and their auras were terrifying. They gathered a cold current and murderous aura on their bodies. As they wandered, they let out ghostly howls that sent chills down people's spines.
The arrival of Xuanyuan's group instantly attracted their attention. In an instant, the ghostly spirits pounced towards them. Each ghostly spirit's strength was extremely terrifying. They were at least at the Life Immortal Realm. This made Xuanyuan's group pale with fright.
This aura was too terrifying. It was impossible to defend against, not to mention there were so many ghostly spirits. There were at least thirty to forty of them.
"It's over. We're going to die here." Xuanyuan panicked. He shouted at The Great Pig, "Hurry up and activate the Teleportation Prohibition Spell to leave!"
The Great Pig remained calm and did not respond to Xuanyuan. The moment the ghostly spirits pounced towards Xuanyuan, they were shattered by the Great Emperor's aura. They let out miserable howls and could not take another step forward!
Seeing this scene, Qian Duoduo, who was so shocked that her face turned pale, patted her chest and rejoiced.
"Looks like they can't penetrate the Great Emperor's aura to attack us."
"'Great Emperor Yingtian' is really powerful. After so many years, the aura contained in his clothes is enough to help us resist such fierce ghostly spirits." Hwang Yue-chan was also very emotional. Only a person with amazing luck like Xuanyuan could obtain such a personal item of the Great Emperor. Ordinary people would not have the chance to enter this place.
"Hmph, these ghostly spirits are just evil spirits left behind by the remnant thoughts of the dead. They gather here day and night to form. They can't compete with the Great Emperor's aura at all. Every existence that becomes a Great Emperor is unfathomable. The Great Pig clearly knew about this.
Xuanyuan breathed a sigh of relief and walked in with the others. Many ghostly spirits pounced on them and howled in pain, but Xuanyuan ignored them. The evil spirits were shattered and turned into nothingness.
The Longevity Palace was paved with white jade. There was not much splendor, only simplicity and solemnity. The interior of the Longevity Palace was very big, tall, and wide. Ninety-nine white jade pillars supported the dome. Many of the white jade pillars were broken and cracked. The battle here was far more tragic than the outside world. The ground was full of cracks.
In front of him, the white jade steps were stacked on top of each other. At the same time, many of the white jade steps were broken.
The Qi inside the Longevity Palace was even more terrifying. This place was still littered with corpses. It was extremely tragic. Xuanyuan experienced what it meant to exterminate an entire clan. There was no one left alive. Otherwise, no one would have come to collect the corpses after so many years.
"It's too scary. Look at their bones. There's earth qi faintly seeping out from them. Obviously, they were at least in the Earth Immortal Realm. There were many Celestial Immortals as well. But they all died just like that. This kind of battle is too tragic." Qian Duoduo pointed at the corpses on the ground. Earth Immortals were the weakest here. There were many Celestial Immortals here.
After all, an expert at the Earthly Immortal Realm was sufficient to assume the position of Palace Master or Supreme Elder of an immortal estate, and they were extremely precious existences. A Heavenly Immortal was even capable of becoming a great figure that held down the karmic luck of an immortal estate, clan, or dynasty, yet they were densely packed here. From this, one could see how prosperous the world of Dou Qi had been during the Immemorial Era. In contrast, the current Human Race was declining. If the Immemorial Royal Clans of the various Forbidden Grounds were to make a comeback, it was likely that the Human Race, with the exception of those factions that possessed supreme Dao tools, would find it difficult to resist.
It was no wonder that their remnant thoughts could form ghost spirits that were comparable to Life Immortals. They protected their corpses and prevented them from being destroyed by outsiders.
Xuanyuan was also very shocked. This kind of battle was absolutely earth-shattering. There were countless broken magic treasures on the ground. Before they existed, they were at least Upper Grade Immortal Weapons, Supreme Immortal Weapons, and even Lower Grade Dao Instruments and Middle Grade Dao Instruments. However, after countless years of erosion, their power had been completely drained. They were dim and dull. It was a pity that they could be crushed with a pinch.
"Let's go and take a look up the stairs. Let's see what's at the top!" Xuanyuan said slowly as he felt the desolate atmosphere in the Changsheng Palace. He could feel the sorrow of countless people who had died in the palace.
The Great Pig quickly stopped Xuanyuan and said in a heavy voice, "Wait, let's search again.
"Wait, let's scavenge a bit more. These are all people with high cultivation levels. Maybe they'll leave some treasures behind. I can't miss it. I'd rather kill 10,000 than let one go." The pig-headed emperor's heart was filled with hope. He was extremely greedy.
"Alright." Xuanyuan had no choice but to nod. At least he had obtained the Chain of Devouring. It could not be said that he did not gain anything. Moreover, it was true that it had been around for countless years and was definitely a rare and supreme immortal treasure.
The Great Pig's golden fur trembled and the 12 black holes shook at the same time. The corpses and broken magic treasures on the ground were turned into dust. They were existences that had turned into dust in the passage of time. When the evil spirits saw the countless corpses being crushed by the Great Pig, they almost disregarded their own lives and rushed forward. The result was obvious. They were all destroyed by the aura of the Great Emperor. Their existence was to protect the sea of knowledge from being desecrated by outsiders. However, when their corpses were destroyed, their existence became meaningless.
The Longevity Palace wasn't too big, but it wasn't too small either. According to the pig-headed emperor's instructions, he walked around the entire Longevity Palace and destroyed quite a few ghosts. He didn't expect that he would actually gain something.
A golden jade pendant floated in mid-air. This golden jade pendant emitted a warm heat. Just the fact that this golden jade pendant had existed for such a long time showed how precious it was.
There was a Daoist carved on this jade pendant. He sat cross-legged on the edge of a cliff. His expression was calm and serene, and he wore a smile on his face. He looked at the setting sun, and there was a supreme Daoist Rhyme flowing in his every movement.
The Great Pig was very excited.
"This is carved from the Sun Immortal Jade. This level of Sun Immortal Jade is a top-grade celestial treasure. Moreover, the carvings on the Sun Immortal Jade are definitely the work of a sage. That's why the Sun Immortal Jade can maintain its eternal brilliance until now!"
The Great Pig found it in the stomach of a dead Primordial Alien Tribe member. That Primordial Alien Tribe member was at the Heavenly Immortal Realm. Clearly, the person who cleaned up the battlefield did not expect that someone would swallow this Sun Immortal Jade. Only someone like the Great Pig, who destroyed corpses in search of treasures, could obtain it.
"What do you mean? At least it was the work of a sage? How can you be so sure? "asked Xuanyuan, puzzled.
"Just like the clothes you're wearing and the Heavenly Immortal Sword, the Great Emperor Heavenly Immortal was also a very ancient figure. So many supreme immortal treasures outside have been destroyed, so why hasn't your sackcloth been destroyed? On one hand, it was made from the skin of a Primordial Alien Tribe member. On the other hand, it was stained with Great Emperor Qi from Great Emperor Yingtian. On top of that, it was carved with the Great Emperor's markings. That's why it was preserved so well! "The Great Pig was in a good mood, so he explained everything to Xuanyuan.
"Well said. I see. It's mine now!" While the Great Pig wasn't paying attention, Xuanyuan reached out like lightning and grabbed the Sun Immortal Jade in his hand. He felt a warm feeling flowing into his palm, and it felt very comfortable.
The Great Pig's eyes almost popped out of their sockets. He looked anxious and his face darkened.
"Kid, I found it. Give it back to me!"
"That's mine too. You've already got the Devouring Chain. I didn't take it from you. Are you still not satisfied? One for each. That's only fair! "Xuanyuan said righteously.
"So what? Give me back the Sun Immortal Jade." The Great Pig bared his teeth. This time, he was really anxious. He looked like he was ready to fight with Xuanyuan.
Xuanyuan was wary of the Great Pig. He said disdainfully, "If I hadn't used the Great Emperor's Armor to avoid the cold and murderous aura, would you have been able to get it? There are so many corpses. Who knows, there might be other treasures. How about this, let's continue the treasure hunt. The next treasure is yours, one for each of us. Otherwise, don't even think about getting anything else. Search for it yourself if you can! "
Outside of the Great Emperor's aura, the cold and murderous aura was extremely terrifying. It sent chills down one's spine. The ghostly spirits circled around Xuanyuan and the others. They didn't dare to come close. They had obviously developed intelligence. Some of the ghostly spirits didn't want to protect the corpses anymore. They wanted to cultivate day and night and leave this place. They were so powerful that they instinctively retreated from the Great Emperor's aura around Xuanyuan. However, if there was an opportunity, they would not hesitate to attack.
If the Great Pig stepped out of the range of the Great Emperor's aura, he would be torn to pieces and eaten by these ghostly spirits.
The Great Pig trembled at the sight of these ghostly spirits. He said fiercely and unwillingly, "Fine, kid.
"Alright, you brat, you win. I'll give it to you."
The pig-headed emperor's heart ached as he said this. His heart was bleeding. A piece of Sun Immortal Jade that could be preserved from that era to this day must contain a lot of secrets.
After obtaining the Celestial Jade of the Sun, Xuanyuan's heart was also filled with excitement. He walked up and down the Palace of Longevity. He almost reached the top of the stairs, but he didn't even get a single strand of hair, because there were no corpses at the top of the stairs. It was a pure land, and no one knew what was at the top. Everyone decided to wait until the last moment before going up.
The Great Pig's face darkened. He bared his fangs and claws at Xuanyuan, ready to pounce.
"Give me back the Sun Immortal Jade."
"Damn it, stupid pig. You can only blame your bad luck. I didn't know there was only one Sun Immortal Jade here. If you yell again, I'll kick you out. " When Xuanyuan saw that the pig didn't get anything, he wanted the Celestial Jade of the Sun back. In order to avoid more trouble, he threatened the pig fiercely.
When the pig heard Xuanyuan's words, he was terrified. The ghosts outside were like a pack of wolves, looking for the best opportunity to attack. If he went out now, he would be severely injured, even if he didn't die. It hadn't been easy for him to come this far, and he didn't want to be beaten back to his original form and become an egg again.
"You win." The pig-headed Great Emperor cursed. His face turned black.
Qian Duoduo and Hwang Yue-chan couldn't help but cover their mouths and laugh when they saw the Great Pig being humiliated. Their laughter was very charming, which made the Great Pig even angrier.
"Pig, don't be angry. What's yours is Xuanxuan's. It's the same no matter who has it," Qian Duoduo comforted.
"That's right. The Holy Beast of All Transformations was born from the Body of All Transformations. Giving it to Xuanyuan is the same as giving it to yourself. What are you dissatisfied with?" Hwang Yue-chan and Qian Duoduo used both carrot and stick.
The Great Pig's face was as black as charcoal.
"Alright, let's go up to the peak of the Longevity Palace." Xuanyuan looked at the long white jade stairs stacked one after another. They all led to the peak of the Longevity Palace. Although he didn't know what was up there, Xuanyuan felt an extremely powerful aura. It formed an independent space and became a pure land. No dust could touch it.
The white jade stairs within 300 feet were not damaged at all. They were intact and flowing with a warm light.
The group walked up. Just as Xuanyuan was about 300 feet away, he felt a powerful aura. It was as if it was suppressing him, preventing him from moving forward. Everyone felt the same.
"Go, let's go up!" Xuanyuan was dressed in sackcloth. His emperor's aura was no weaker than this powerful aura. Xuanyuan could clearly feel the two auras fighting against each other.
"There's definitely something extremely terrifying up there! Perhaps the real treasure is up there! "The Great Pig made such a conclusion.
"Forget it. If there was any treasure, it would have been taken long ago. Why would it still be here today?" Xuanyuan rolled his eyes.
"Xuanxuan has a point," Qian Duoduo said.
"But since we're already here, let's go up and take a look." Hwang Yue-chan and Qian Duoduo gripped the wooden bed leg made from the branch of the Immortal Herb King that Yingtian Emperor had slept on. They also emitted a great emperor's aura to resist the oppressive aura.
The two auras fought against each other. Xuanyuan and the group walked up.
200 feet, 100 feet, 500 feet, 300 feet, 10 feet....
Finally, at the top of the Longevity Palace, there was a bed of Profound Ice Jade, and on it sat a woman with a stunning appearance. She exuded an unparalleled aura, and no words could describe her. Everything else paled in comparison to her. This was an aura that stood at the pinnacle of the world.
The moment the pig-headed emperor saw the woman, he cried out in surprise.
"That's a female sage! Oh no, run! One finger of hers is enough to crush all of us! "
Qian Duoduo and Hwang Yue-chan's expressions changed. They looked at the woman with admiration.
"Who is she?" Xuanyuan was a little dazed. A question arose in his mind. He clearly did not hear the Great Pig's words.
