Ling Xian heard the woman's sigh and agreed with her.
The Fallen Immortal Cave was an extremely dangerous place, definitely not inferior to the Saint Sunset Mountain. Even he didn't have the confidence to escape unscathed.
"It's a pity that the art of physiognomy can't predict my fortune."
Ling Xian softly sighed and shook his head.
So what if it could be calculated? For the sake of Lin Qingyi, he had to make this trip. Even if it was a disaster, he would not retreat.
At once, Ling Xian's gaze turned determined. His wings pierced through the sky and traveled thousands of miles in one breath.
Three days later, he saw a strange mountain range.
The reason why it was eerie was because the mountain was emitting a strange energy. Just by getting closer, Ling Xian's eyes turned red.
It was as if he was about to fall into depravity and become a demon. His consciousness was a little fuzzy.
"What a terrifying place!"
Ling Xian's heart skipped a beat. He quickly used the Incantation of a Calm Heart to wake himself up.
However, it was only able to resist the strange energy, it was unable to completely isolate it.
"As expected of an Ominous Land that's as famous as the Saint Sunset Mountain. It's indeed terrifying."
Ling Xian's expression turned serious. He summoned the Incantation of a Calm Heart and the Shang Qing Technique at the same time to defend against the invasion of the strange energy.
Then, he landed in the depths of the mountain range, or rather, in front of a deep cave.
This cave was pitch black and deep, and it emanated boundless Depravity Energy. It caused all the living beings in an area of 5km to lose their minds and transform into monsters that only knew how to slaughter.
"Is the origin of the name of the Fallen Immortal Cave because of this terrifying and strange power …"
Ling Xian squinted his eyes. Inner demons are the biggest enemies of cultivators. Even those who are enlightened don't want to encounter them.
This cave could actually release the power of depravity, luring living beings into becoming devils. How terrifying was this?
Even Ling Xian felt a chill down his spine.
However, it could not shake his Dao Heart, nor could it shake his determination.
At once, Ling Xian stepped out and entered the Cave of the Fallen Immortal.
Suddenly, the power of corruption enveloped his body. Even with the protection of the Tranquil Heart Incantation, his mind was in a mess.
"Luckily, I have the Three Pure Ones Heavenly Art. Otherwise, I wouldn't have the ability to enter this place."
Ling Xian softly sighed, feeling extremely fortunate.
Although he did not cultivate the Three Pure Ones Heavenly Technique, he could conjure scriptures and dispel the power of depravity.
At that moment, hundreds of silver ancient characters appeared. Clear light circulated, and Daoist Rhymes filled the air.
The moment this technique appeared, the power of corruption immediately retreated and could no longer invade Ling Xian's consciousness.
"As expected of the Three Pure Ones Heavenly Art. It is indeed mysterious."
Ling Xian faintly smiled. Using an unparalleled technique to protect himself, he entered the Cave of the Fallen Immortal.
This place was strange. There were no forks in the road, only an endless passageway that led into the unknown.
Ling Xian was on high alert and careful. Not only did he put on the Armor of the Royal Spirit, he also activated the three flowers of the Great Path.
It couldn't be helped. This was a dangerous place that was as famous as the Saint Luo Mountain. Even if a god came, he would have to be careful.
Strangely enough, other than the power of the fallen, Ling Xian didn't run into any other dangers. It was as if the Cave of the Fallen Immortals, which everyone's face turns pale at the mention of, was merely an undeserved reputation.
"The universally recognized ominous place definitely doesn't live up to its reputation."
"The current calm seems to be the precursor of a storm."
Ling Xian squinted his eyes. He remained cautious and didn't dare to relax.
However, after walking for a full four hours, he did not encounter any danger. It was as if he was walking in his own backyard, and there was no danger.
"What is going on? The Cave of the Fallen Immortals is a place that even gods don't dare to enter. How can it be so peaceful?"
Ling Xian's brows were tightly locked together. To not run into any danger at such an ominous place was something that didn't make sense.
Just as he was wondering, a cold voice suddenly arose. It made his hair stand on end as if he was facing a great enemy.
"I don't want you to die. Who dares to take your life?"
Hearing this, Ling Xian's expression changed and his body tensed up.
He didn't sense this person's Qi at all. In other words, this person's capabilities were far above his. Why wouldn't he be shocked?
"No need to be nervous. If I wanted to kill you, the Cave of the Fallen Immortals wouldn't be this peaceful."
The cold voice arose again. It seemed near and far, making it hard to tell where it came from.
"Who are you?" Ling Xian's brows were tightly locked together as he regained his normal calmness.
After all, he was used to seeing storms and waves. He could even see the mysterious eyes of the Saint Luo Mountain calmly. Naturally, he calmed down quickly.
"Who are you?"
The emotionless voice silenced. Moments later, it said something that shocked Ling Xian.
"I come from the same place as you."
At those words, Ling Xian acted as if he was struck by lightning and froze.
If this person was a foreign being, then he wouldn't have said something like that. In other words, he could tell that Ling Xian came from the universe.
Therefore, why wouldn't Ling Xian be shocked?
Only after a long while did he digest this shocking news, "You … you really came from the universe?"
"Do you know why this place is called the Cave of the Fallen Immortals?"
"It's not because of the power of corruption, it's because there is a fallen immortal here."
The cold voice arose. There was no guilt or sadness.
"A fallen immortal?!"
Ling Xian's heart was thrown into turmoil. Not even in his dreams did he think that a real immortal would betray the universe and take root in the foreign land!
Then, his expression turned cold, "The fallen immortal, it's you!"
"That's right."
The cold voice arose, "However, I don't like that title. You can call me the leader of the forbidden area."
"You are allowed to betray the universe, but I am not allowed to call you a traitor?"
Ling Xian's eyes shot out electricity and his killer's intent was cold.
To protect the universe, the last Immortal King died on the battlefield and the immortals fell one after another. Yet this immortal betrayed the universe and joined the foreign land. Because of this, he deserved to die!
"A good bird chooses a good tree to nest in. Why can't I betray the universe?"
"I merely changed to a brighter sky. What's wrong with that?"
The leader of the forbidden area spoke softly. He was not angry at all.
"You are not wrong. You are just despicable."
Ling Xian's eyes were cold, "The brighter sky you speak of, is it this small Cave of the Fallen Immortal?"
"I am eternal and I am free and unfettered. What is the difference between this tiny place and all nine levels of Heaven and 10 levels of Hell?"
The leader said softly, "The war between two heavens and earth will end with the destruction of the universe. Being in the universe means losing immortality."
"If I lose my backbone, so what if I have immortality?"
Ling Xian's expression was cold and fearless.
After finding out that the leader of the forbidden area was an undefeatable real immortal, he was no longer afraid.
If the undefeatable real immortal wanted to kill him, all he needed to do was think about it. No matter how scared he was, it would be useless.
"My generation has been through so much and has gone against the heavens. What we seek is immortality and freedom."
The master of the forbidden land said indifferently, "For the sake of immortality, what does it matter if I lose my backbone?"
"Our ideals are different. There is no need to say more."
Ling Xian flapped around his sleeve, "If you want to kill me, do as you please."
"I told you, if I wanted to kill you, I wouldn't have kept you alive until now."
The leader said softly, "The reason why I spoke was because I wanted to chat with you. After all, it's been so many years since I've seen someone from the universe."
"Against you, I have nothing to say."
Ling Xian's expression was emotionless. Even against a living undefeatable real immortal, his back didn't bend even an inch.
"Let's talk about your goal."
"Everyone knows that the Cave of the Fallen Immortal is filled with death. If you didn't have an important goal, you wouldn't be here."
