"Fake."
These two simple words caused Yan Liusu's expression to stiffen. She secretly transmitted her voice, You mean that this girl is an illusion created by the illusion?
"That's right," Ling Xian replied.
Ling Xian responded. He had checked with his Qi and found out that this woman was not a person with flesh and blood. She was merely an illusion created by the Hidden Territory.
He was not surprised by this.
Although Yan Liusu was somewhat surprised, she did not ask. Instead, she remained calm and followed Tan Meng into the room.
Ling Xian did the same.
He followed behind Yan Liusu in silence. His expression was as calm as water.
Then, the two of them sat down on the red wooden chairs. Tan Meng personally poured them a cup of tea.
"I wonder what brings you two true immortals to my humble abode?"
Tan Meng's faint smile was so beautiful that it could topple cities.
"It's not a big deal. I just want to borrow your collection of ancient books," Yan Liusu said with a smile.
"Borrow ancient books?"
Tan Meng frowned, then relaxed. "If this was anyone else, I would not allow it. But since it is Immortal Fu Long's request, I have no grounds to refuse."
"You must be joking. If you don't lend it to me, I will not use force," Yan Liusu said with a smile.
"Is that so …"
Tan Meng brushed away her bangs and smiled, "Then I won't lend it to you."
As soon as she spoke, Yan Liusu spat out the tea in her mouth. She did not think the woman would do something like that.
"I'm just joking. I'm sure with Immortal Fu Long's heart, he won't stoop to my level."
Tan Meng pursed her lips. Without another word, she walked to the west wall.
There, there was a very ordinary painting of mountains and rivers.
After that, she took down the landscape painting and pressed a red button.
Squeak …
The east wall suddenly split in two. Then, a wave of vicissitudes and the smell of books washed over them.
"That is my study. Immortals, feel free to read." Tan Meng smiled and extended her arm, indicating for Ling Xian and Yan Liusu to do as they please.
Her casual attitude made Yan Liusu hesitate slightly.
"Don't overthink it. Our capabilities are the best in this world. What's there to be afraid of?" Ling Xian grinned and walked straight into the study room.
"That's true. I was thinking too much." Yan Liusu felt ashamed as she followed.
After Ling Xian entered the study room, his eyes flashed with shock.
The reason for that was because there were simply too many books here. Even though the place wasn't very big, the number of books here was not one bit inferior to those of peak powers.
"Interesting."
Ling Xian faintly smiled and manipulated his Qi. As he blocked Tan Meng's detection, he also began to scan the entire study room.
Yan Liusu was the same.
He scanned the room with his Divine Soul. Whenever he encountered a book related to history, he would place it on the ground so that he could read it later.
Just like that, books related to history were picked out by the two of them. After searching the entire study, the ancient books on the floor had already piled up into a small hill.
"It looks like we need to spend some time." Yan Liusu smiled helplessly.
"Don't worry, just read it patiently."
Ling Xian calmed himself down, picked up an ancient book, and began to read it carefully.
Yan Liusu was the same.
Just like that, time passed by little by little.
The pile of books on the floor was getting smaller and smaller. Ling Xian's frown was also getting tighter and tighter.
Because up until now, he had found nothing. He had not found anything related to this world.
Yan Liusu was the same.
He was full of annoyance. If it weren't for Ling Xian, he would've given up already.
"Could it be that there are really no ancient books related to this world?"
Ling Xian frowned and continued to read, unwilling to give up. Finally, after half an hour, he found some clues.
Although the words on the ancient book were somewhat blurred, he could still recognize the four words at a glance.
Huang Zhen Xian.
The identity the Hidden Territory arranged for him.
This made Ling Xian very happy. Even though it wasn't very useful, at least it proved that he was heading in the right direction. As long as he continued to search, he would find something.
Just then, Yan Liusu sent over some good news.
His face was full of excitement as he waved the ancient book in his hand and shouted, "Look, I found it!" Hearing this, Ling Xian's spirit lifted. He instantly appeared next to Yan Liusu and took the book from her hand.
Then, he flipped through the book to see what kind of clue could make Yan Liusu ecstatic.
At first, he could maintain his composure. But as he continued to read, his expression changed. Shock, fear, coldness, and other emotions appeared on his face. It was hard for others to believe that this was an expression he would make.
Yan Liusu was the same. Her initial ecstasy had long disappeared. Other than disbelief, there was heaviness.
Because this ancient book recorded a cruel history that confirmed Ling Xian's guess. It could even be said that it overturned everything they knew.
Originally, Ling Xian thought the Realm of Immortals was an independent existence. Only by reaching the peak can one fly up and enter the Realm of Immortals.
But after reading this book, he realized that millions of years ago, the Realm of Immortals did not exist. Everyone lived in one world.
During that era, there were five peerless True Immortals who ruled over the world. They were True Immortal Profound Yellow who ruled over the East, True Immortal Crouching Dragon who ruled over the West, True Immortal Daoless who ruled over the South, and True Immortal Punisher who ruled over the North.
And Ao Tian Xian who guarded the central area.
These five immortals were also known as the Five Sky Rulers. They ruled the world. Among them, Ao Tian Xian was the strongest, followed by Huang Zhen Xian.
The five immortals were best friends. They ruled the world together for the good of everyone.
But one day, the Realm of Immortals appeared.
This group of strange creatures came aggressively and were incomparably powerful. They were stronger than the other races in all aspects. Only the seven royal kinds could compete with them.
What was even more troublesome was that there were nine powerhouses among the Realm of Immortals!
Every single one of them was extremely powerful and could fight against the Five Sky Rulers. They were the true powerhouses of the universe!
Just at this time, the strongest of the Five Sky Rulers, Ao Tian Xian, betrayed them.
Perhaps it was because of the disparity in strength, or perhaps he had been bought by the Realm of Immortals a long time ago. In other words, he truly betrayed them.
In this way, the situation of the battle became even worse, and it was in imminent danger.
With Huang Zhen Xian as the leader, the Ten Thousand Clans fought a bloody battle. But they could not stop the power of the Realm of Immortals. Whether it was the battle of the strongest or the battle of the lowest leveled cultivators, the Ten Thousand Clans did not have the advantage.
Even though they were already very powerful, their opponents were unimaginably terrifying!
At this critical moment, Huang Zhen Xian made a decision. He planned on creating an independent world and sending the Ten Thousand Clans away.
At the very least, he could leave behind a seed of hope.
Back then, the Ten Thousand Clans were without a doubt going to lose. If they continued to fight, they would be completely wiped out.
Therefore, nobody objected to Huang Zhen Xian's decision.
After that, the great Supreme True Immortal burned the essence of his Immortal Dao and split the original world in half.
One half was the Ten Thousand Clans.
The other half was the Four Supreme Immortals!
With an indomitable spirit, they fought against the nine Realm of Immortals and fought for the last chance of survival for all living beings!
