"Whoosh!"
When that golden light, which was also Fang Xing's divine sense, came into contact with the stone tablet, Fang Xing immediately felt dizzy. A terrifying gravitational force appeared from the stone tablet and directly pulled out all of his divine sense from the golden lotus and into the stone tablet. He was shocked by this turn of events. He subconsciously thought that this was a plot by Di Liu, who had deliberately allowed the stone tablet to pull away the parasitic golden lotus he had left in his sea of knowledge so that he could get rid of him …
But before he could shout in anger, he was already speechless.
At this moment, even his divine sense was not clear, and he was suddenly faced with endless illusions …
After strengthening his Dao Heart, Fang Xing basically would not fall into illusions again!
There were not many illusions that could make him fall into them!
But at this moment, he suddenly fell into an illusion and could not resist at all.
He quickly understood that this was not because he had fallen into an illusion, but because it was a memory …
Or rather, it was a kind of inscription, the inscription on the stone tablet!
There were indeed many things recorded on the stone tablet, but strictly speaking, they were all related to the same thing.
The death of the previous Di Family Patriarchs …
"Kill …"
Fang Xing heard the roars in his ears. When he opened his eyes, he saw countless strange and ferocious creatures of the God Clan rushing towards him like a tidal wave. That kind of momentum almost drowned him, and he himself turned into a general of the army, surrounded by cultivators who charged together with him. They rushed into the endless God Clan creatures, killing and fighting non-stop. This was an incomparably tragic and long battle. It went on for a full three months, and he had also been fighting for three months …
The people around him decreased, but the number of Shen Clan creatures seemed to increase!
In the end, he was the only one left. He no longer had the slightest bit of Immortal Qi on him, and he was seriously injured. A great Tribulation Passing cultivator did not even have the strength to lift his weapon. In the end, he was surrounded by countless Shen Clan creatures, and his body was torn apart …
…
…
"It's a vast land, a fairyland …"
Once again, Fang Xing seemed to have transformed into another person. Facing the worried gazes of countless people, his face revealed a resolute light. "So, no matter how fierce and powerful those monsters are, we must seize a foothold for ourselves. For this, what is there to be afraid of cultivating demonic arts? You guys are worried about Qi deviation, but I'm not afraid. Let me cultivate in seclusion first. Once I've mastered my godly skills, I'll lead the army and charge forward like my father did. I'll take the head of that demon and offer it to my father in front of his tomb … "
But in next to no time, Fang Xing once again saw that he was in a gloomy abode, suffering from qi deviation while cultivating a devil art. He wanted to shout out, wanted to find someone to ask for help, yet he was unable to say a single word. In the end, he quietly died amidst the boundless pain …
…
…
"I heard that there's a treasure bestowed by the heavens that can help us overcome the Tribulation Transcendence realm. Let's go and snatch it. Even if we have to put our lives on the line, we have to snatch it back …"
…
…
"I am the leader of the Di Family, how dare you hurt me?"
…
…
Scene after scene, life after life, countless illusions appeared in Fang Xing's heart. He passed by countless people on the verge of death, as well as the marks they left on the stone tablet. He saw generation after generation of leaders of the Di Family. Some died because of fighting with the God Clan, some died because they forcefully raised their cultivation and Qi deviation. Some died while fighting for the first batch of Immortal Lives with other Immortals from Tian Yuan. There were even some who were assassinated by some mysterious assassins, and died in the end with unwillingness …
If these deaths were normal, but the illusions after that made him feel more and more strange!
"I didn't expect that old bastard to break through to a new realm. I have to go into seclusion and break through again …"
…
…
"My Di Family is facing a great disaster. If we can't get through this, won't our bloodline be cut off? You guys go, I'll stand guard! "
…
…
"Sigh, this is a one in a million opportunity. If I succeed, so what if I die? The Di Family will become the ruler …"
…
…
This time, what he saw was another way of dying. Some of the previous Di Clan Masters died when their Immortal Origins shattered while they were exploring new cultivation realms. Some died when their clan was being hunted down by enemies. There were also some, or rather many, who willingly gave up their lives when the Di Clan and other Immortal Clans were fighting for the chance to become Celestial Emperors …
"Is this the tablet of glory that the Di Family built for their ancestors?"
Amidst the endless illusions, Fang Xing's only trace of clarity began to fill his heart with endless doubts.
Then, the illusions that continued to appear made him immediately reject this idea.
"I've been in charge of the Heavenly Court for three thousand years. My lifespan has reached ten thousand years. What's the point of continuing?"
He turned into a skinny old man who was indescribably noble. He curled up on a huge chair. The hall was empty. There was not a single person. Or rather, the hall was filled with people. However, there was no one in his eyes. He seemed to have endless power in his body. It was as if he could do anything with just a wave of his hand. However, his heart was extremely tired. All his thoughts were dried up. He fell into a deep, death-like pain. In the end, he laughed bitterly and dispersed his spirit!
…
…
"Eight thousand years of Di Family. Unheard of …"
The scene changed again. Fang Xing sat on that huge chair again. This time, he was not so tired. Instead, he was filled with anger. He looked at a middle-aged man who was equally angry. He heard him roar, "You've been the Celestial Emperor for long enough. Why are you still not willing to get down from that chair? How long are you going to be the ruler of the myriad realms? I've had enough. I've had enough of you always being above me. So, Imperial Father, step aside. It's my turn as the Celestial Emperor … "
…
…
"Imperial Father, you're old. You no longer have the courage to advance. You haven't broken through to the next realm for two thousand years. I've already surpassed you. So, there's no harm in giving up the throne. Just stay here and live in seclusion …"
Very soon, he saw another handsome and domineering man speaking to him with a smile on his face. This time, he didn't even feel anger in his heart, only terror. Because in his eyes, that man, the man that he was very familiar with, actually possessed a cultivation that was even more terrifying than his own. He didn't even dare to move a single finger …
"Imperial Father, I've changed my mind. Living in seclusion isn't the best outcome. As long as you're alive, there will always be people who want to use your name to develop ambitions and shake my rule. It's very annoying. So, you should … return to the heavens and earth!"
The scene changed again. It was still the same man. However, this time, he was not persuading him to step down!
…
…
"What right do you have to continue sitting on that throne? You haven't been involved in politics for thousands of years. Why don't you just give up the throne to me? No one in the entire universe is satisfied with you. They're all willing to let me sit on the throne. So, just give up … "
Once again, he saw countless experts surrounding him. Their murderous intent swept over like a tide.
…
…
"Haha, I knew this day would come since the day I took your grandfather's throne. Come, my son. I've taught you everything. I've been waiting for this day. Now, show me all your abilities. Let's see who's more worthy to sit on the throne. Don't bother about the others, even if they destroy the Heavenly Court …"
Once again, Fang Xing saw a young man appear in front of him. Then, a world-shaking battle unfolded!
…
…
"Phew …"
After an unknown amount of time, Fang Xing suddenly broke free from the endless illusions. When he sensed his own consciousness again, he felt a sense of relief that he had not felt for a long time, as if he had just woken up from a nightmare. That feeling was almost like freedom …
"Haha, now you know the curse of our Di Clan, right?"
Di Liu's voice rang out, making Fang Xing believe that he had indeed broken free from the terrifying illusions.
"Damn it, what kind of things did your Di Clan raise? Killing your own father is like playing with a ball …"
Fang Xing only heaved a sigh of relief before he started cursing.
He could not be blamed for cursing so harshly. It was because he had seen too many things in this stone tablet. Indeed, it was as he had thought before. The past generations of Di Clan leaders had all kinds of ways of dying. Some of them were not even recorded on this stone tablet. They had simply disappeared. Some had gone mad, some had been assassinated, some had fallen into a death formation, and some had even gotten tired of living and freed themselves. However, this was not the main reason. The most common way of dying was actually generation after generation of patricide. They were killed by their own sons!
Especially in the later generations, it had been the same for several generations.
That kind of immersive feeling made his Divine Sense suffer indescribable pain and torture.
"This is the fate of our Di Clan!"
Hearing Fang Xing's curses, Di Liu didn't get angry. Instead, he sneered.
However, the Immortal World is different. With an Immortal Fate, as long as you want it, you can avoid all calamities and even live forever. This is longevity, but longevity also brings many problems. Just like my Di Clan, even if we can live forever, there has never been an eternal Immortal Emperor. There will always be a son who will come to kill you and take your position … Just like me, from the day I became the Di Clan's Prince, I knew that sooner or later, I would have to face my father. If I didn't kill him and replace him, or if he killed me … "
At this point, a strange smile appeared on Di Liu's face as he softly said, "We sought immortality but failed. Instead, generations of our people died unnatural deaths, just like a curse. This is the legendary Longevity Calamity of my Di Family!"
