Inside the stone room, Ling Xian sat on the ground in a lotus position and pondered with a frown.
Based on what was shown in the video, he was able to get two important pieces of information. For one, the omnipotent knew of the existence of the black energy. The reason was because when the black energy appeared, he didn't appear surprised and set up his grave beforehand.
For two, the thing that stopped him from becoming an immortal was the black energy.
Every time he thought about the strange black energy that consumed an omnipotent within seconds, Ling Xian's entire body turned cold as if he had fallen into an icy hell.
"What is it … could it be a curse?"
Ling Xian mumbled to himself. This was the only guess he could make. Because based on the video, the black energy came from the omnipotent's body. There were no enemies, so the only possibility was a curse.
But what kind of curse was it that could make a peerless almighty who was only a step away from the Celestial Realm feel helpless?
Just the thought of it was enough to make one shudder!
"How terrifying …"
Ling Xian exhaled a long sigh. Especially when he remembered how nobody has been able to ascend in 30,000 years, his entire body felt cold.
Regardless of whether that strange black gas was a curse or not, there was at least one thing that could be confirmed. The main reason why the omnipotent failed to ascend to immortality was because of the black energy.
From this, could it be deduced that the reason nobody has been able to ascend in 30,000 years was because of the black energy?
If that was the case, then it would be far too terrifying.
"I seem to have discovered a huge secret."
Ling Xian sighed deeply. He felt like he was surrounded by layers of fog. Thousands of questions and questions from the past appeared in his head.
The Painting of the Nine Immortals, the Great Mausoleum, the pool of blood, and the eerie black energy all intertwined with each other, giving him a splitting headache and making him sweat.
These things were repeatedly entangled in his mind, as if they were forming a path. But as to what it was exactly, Ling Xian couldn't figure it out and he didn't dare to think about it.
In the end, one thing was for sure. He had found out the secret to ascension. To put it more accurately, it was the secret that nobody has been able to ascend in 30,000 years!
If this news gets out, the entire Taoism community will fall into a state of shock like never before!
Of course, Ling Xian wasn't dumb enough to spread the news. He knew very well that once the news about the black gas gets out, he would be in endless trouble.
"Han Qing Xue and the others are all dead. Only I saw what happened before the omnipotent died. This secret must not be leaked. "
Ling Xian softly sighed and muttered the Incantation of a Calm Heart. He suppressed all the questions he had and didn't dare to think about them anymore.
Otherwise, he would be driven mad before he could come up with an answer.
Therefore, he muttered the Incantation of a Calm Heart to calm himself down. A moment later, he stood up and returned to his normal state.
"Let's not think about this for now. The truth will come to light one day. Now, you should think about how to get out of here. "
Ling Xian bitterly smiled. Though he had arrived at the place where the omnipotent died, this was not a safe place.
In other words, he was still in danger, and it was unknown whether or not he could get out. "Take your time to search. There will always be a way out."
Ling Xian softly sighed and marched towards the ice coffin. There was nothing inside except for the coldness that continued to seep out.
This made him exclaim. The omnipotent of his generation didn't even leave behind a corpse. It was a little pitiful.
At the same time, he felt more and more terrified.
It was just a few strands of black gas, yet even the apex powerhouses had no way of resisting and were devoured cleanly. This was simply inconceivable!
If it was anyone else, they would be terrified to the extreme!
For Ling Xian to be able to analyze things rationally was already very rare.
"I am sorry for disturbing your rest. But do not worry, if I can get out, I will seal this place and stop anyone from disturbing you. "
Ling Xian softly sighed and placed the four treasures into his storage pouch. Then, he once again looked at the red word "hate", as if trying to memorize it.
"Heroes are lonely, heroes are sad. How can an immortal's heart be broken?"
Ling Xian exclaimed and uttered out a statement that was hard to understand.
"Aye, becoming an immortal is hard, and immortality is hard."
After those words, Ling Xian marched forward in giant steps and returned the way he came.
He had searched with his Qi. There were no exits and no traps. In other words, this path was blocked. He could only return to the first stone room and continue his search.
After he entered the path, the swords attacked again and slashed his body.
Ling Xian didn't care at all. He used his physical body to defend and walked towards the first stone room.
After a while, he returned and once again summoned the Plate of Escape. At once, this object emitted light and emitted a mysterious energy that searched for all eight entrances.
This time, the Plate of Escape didn't have the wrong four pointers. Instead, it stopped at the position that represented the fire.
"It looks like this is the way out. I hope I don't make any more mistakes."
Ling Xian mumbled. He marched forward in giant steps with his head held high.
The moment he entered the exit path, he was drowned by an infinite amount of fire. The high temperature expanded, as if it could burn the sky and boil the ocean.
Ling Xian didn't panic. He summoned the Fire Taming Pearl and it suspended above his head, emitting a mysterious energy.
At once, the fire on both sides retreated as if it had seen its nemesis and automatically formed a path.
"This path isn't easy to walk on. If this was a normal person, they would've been burnt to ashes."
Ling Xian softly grinned and his eyes flickered with anticipation, "But this also means this is a way out. As long as I can get through this, I will be able to see the light of day again."
Then, he manipulated the Fire Taming Pearl and blocked out the endless amount of fire. He marched forward in giant steps.
Just like he said, other than the fire, he didn't encounter any other traps. After some time, he successfully walked out of the tomb.
And the moment he left the ground, the cracked ground automatically closed up, no different from normal ground.
"It was a thrilling journey. Fortunately, I survived. Furthermore, I've also learned a huge secret. "
Ling Xian softly grinned. He flapped around his sleeve and multiple arrays formed, surrounding the area.
This was to prevent others from noticing the strangeness of this place. But that was basically impossible. After all, Han Qing Xue only found out about the omnipotent's tomb after she got the key.
"I will go find Jiu Ge. Then, I will wait for the Palace of Heaven's Favorites to open. As for the eerie black air, I will let it be. "
Ling Xian softly sighed. He then tore open the space and returned to the entrance of the tomb.
There, Feng Jiu Ge was wearing a long white dress. Like a lotus that was not tainted by mud, she was noble, holy, and out of this world.
However, her tightly knitted brows revealed her worry at this moment.
However, when she saw Ling Xian's arrival, she immediately revealed a smile. Her beauty was enough to cause the downfall of a nation.
