"Who is speaking!"
Su Chen was stunned.
It was not that he was shocked by the inexplicable sound, but the Immortality Tree in his body, at this moment, seemed to be howling in the wind, and countless leaves were rustling.
next moment.
The owner of the voice appeared.
He was an old man, wearing a grey robe, leaning on a cane, with a huge tortoise shell on his back. His cloudy eyes were devoid of any light, as he had long been blind.
In a trance.
On the old man's body, Su Chen saw a terrifying giant turtle.
Why is this giant turtle so terrifying!
Just because it is a little too huge.
I can’t see clearly what level it is!
but.
The only thing that is certain is that, given the size of this giant turtle, even the vast mountains and seas can be swallowed by it in one gulp.
It may, at its peak, be able to feed on the great world.
not only that.
On his body, Su Chen saw the unique longevity fire in the world. The brilliant color of this longevity fire could not be described in words.
How long has this old turtle lived?
Tens of thousands of years?
Maybe there's more to it than that.
Even so, this old turtle still has more than tens of thousands of years to live.
The ancient immortal era known to the Mountain and Sea Realm lasted only a million years, and the current immortal era has only been around for about 100,000 years. For this old turtle, it is only one percent of the time he has lived.
"what do you!?"
Su Chen seemed shocked.
especially.
What shocked him was the title of the fairyland.
The Tree of Immortality rustled, and it was this word that reacted violently.
Fairyland?
Through the ages.
In the world of mountains and seas, whether it is the countless small human worlds or the five domains of the big world, there are legends about the fairyland. It is rumored that it is the source of the immortal way.
There, there is a prosperous world of immortals.
There, it's like a myth!
but.
This world before my eyes, which seemed to have been dead for many years, was the fairyland in the legends and myths! ?
"Is the final trial an illusion?"
Although everything before his eyes was real, the information it conveyed was so horrifying that Su Chen could not believe it. He closed his eyes, and [Way of Reincarnation] appeared in his hand, trying to break through this illusory world.
pity.
All in vain.
"hehe."
"once Upon a time."
"There were also five little guys who were looking for a way above the Incarnation Realm from other paths and found this place. When they learned that this was the Immortal Realm, their reaction was similar to yours."
"Shock, horror, fear, disbelief, and silence..."
"Tsk, tsk."
“I really miss it when I think about it.”
The old man with a tortoise shell shape was laughing while leaning on a crutch.
This is the fairyland.
The source of immortality that countless immortal realms yearn for.
The fairyland that had long been destroyed.
Su Chen basically didn't need to guess that the five little guys mentioned by the old man Turtle Shell were the five great Dao Masters of the Mountain and Sea Realm.
Apart from them, no one else can find this place.
The source of immortality, the legendary immortal world, has long been destroyed!
Such is the truth.
No one can accept it.
not to mention.
There are five Dao Masters who have reached the top of the Mountain and Sea Realm, trying to find a way to transcend the Mountain and Sea Realm.
Can be imagined.
How complicated are the emotions of the Five Great Dao Masters.
"However, those five little guys probably can't remember anything about the fairy world."
"It's just a dream."
"Once you wake up from a dream, you naturally can't remember everything in the dream."
“If they were to remember that the Immortal Realm had been destroyed, their own foundations in the Immortal Path would probably be affected, and they would fall from their position as Dao Masters…”
The old man with the tortoise shell slowly began to tell the story.
The trial stele of the Red Martial City.
It appeared there as early as when the mountain and sea world was conceived.
Or.
The Immortal Realm is connected to every great immortal world. Every prosperous immortal world has a coordinate like a trial stele that can lead to the Immortal Realm.
"There is more than one big world in this world, the Mountain and Sea World?"
Su Chen is asking questions.
although.
He had long guessed that since this vast starry sky was dotted with countless stars, there must be more than one mountain and sea world, and there must be other worlds.
However, he had been to the outer battlefield.
Apart from the battlefield outside the sky, there is nothing outside the sky, no stars, no roads to other worlds, and no signs of other worlds. Only nothingness and chaos envelope the mountain and sea world.
"some."
"Naturally there is."
The old man with the tortoise shell said this with a smile.
Subsequently.
I didn't go into detail.
Just continue to narrate this final trial.
The final trial is not actually a trial.
It is nothing more than a qualification screening. When the fairy world has not yet been destroyed, the most evil beings in the world will be screened out and ascend to heaven directly.
"If the immortal world has not been destroyed yet, ascending to immortality directly is a great opportunity."
"It's even more terrifying than the Transformation Spirit One Leap Daoist Master."
"But it's a pity."
"now."
"You can only take this broken sword back with you."
The words fell.
In an instant.
Everything around me changed.
In a blink of an eye, Su Chen and the old man in the tortoise shell came from the desolate and silent wilderness to a towering ancient palace.
Half of this hall has been reduced to ruins, but the other half is relatively intact. It is the only relatively intact building in this destroyed immortal world.
On this intact half of the hall, one can still vaguely see horrific scratches and horrific marks left by terrifying weapons. Even after a long time, powerful power still remains in these marks.
"This is……"
Su Chen stared for a long time.
boom!
next moment.
Just when he was in a trance and his soul was about to leave his body, the Longevity Tree extended its tendrils and grabbed the floating soul back into Su Chen's body.
"You are quite brave, little kid."
"The five little kids didn't dare to stare at these traces. These were all left behind by those peerless and powerful beings in the battle that destroyed the immortal world..."
“Let alone becoming a god, even if the Dao Master stares at it for too long, he will be killed by its intent!”
Although the old man with tortoise shell was surprised that Su Chen was safe and sound, he was not surprised.
Subsequently.
He looked towards the hall and saw the remaining weapons floating in the air. Each one was incomplete, but they all retained extraordinary meaning.
A look of regret appeared in the eyes of the old man with the tortoise shell. He stretched out his hand, grabbed one of the broken swords, which was only half left, and threw it to Su Chen.
"Here you go."
"You are the second person who has been recognized and can directly descend to the fairyland and ascend to immortality."
"pity."
"The immortal path has long been destroyed. Now, even if you ascend to immortality, you will not be able to obtain even a little bit of luck! All I can give you is this broken sword..."
"Speaking of which, this item is destined to be with you. After all, you happen to be a sword cultivator, and you can allow the sword spirit nurtured by the sword in your hand to reside in this soulless broken sword..."
"Moreover, he is also an immortal who came from the Mountain and Sea Realm. He can be considered your 'predecessor'."
The old man with the tortoise shell kept chattering.
hum!
next moment.
The Xichen Sword appeared on its own without waiting for Su Chen to summon it. It had been with Su Chen for hundreds of years. Although it was also an immortal sword, it could not reach the level of a divine sword in battle.
All along, whenever Su Chen fought with powerful celestial beings or gods, he never used the Xichen Sword, because once it was used, the Xichen Sword would inevitably be destroyed.
now.
Xichen Sword got a chance to be reborn.
"This sword is extraordinary."
"Even though the sword soul has perished, after countless years, not a speck of dust has stained it. I even feel that it can cut through the immortal body of a god..." "Why did his master perish?"
Su Chen stared at the black broken sword for a long time and said so.
"That's ancient."
"Tsk, tsk."
"In a hall, there are these remaining weapons. Each of them is the ruler of a certain immortal world. In the past, when the immortal world was at its peak, they fought together with the immortal world to resist powerful invading enemies."
"pity."
"In the end, they were allowed to die in battle along with the Immortal Realm."
The old man with the tortoise shell shook his head and said no more.
obviously.
This seems to be a taboo.
Indescribable.
Even this old turtle that has lived for tens of thousands of years and is still guarding the Fallen Immortal Realm is particularly wary of this.
"Ancient?!"
Su Chen murmured.
Indeed, there are still some ancient books that have been passed down to later generations.
just now.
The great era is coming.
One after another, ancient lives were born, vying for the opportunity to see the great age coming.
But in ancient times...
Everything is extinct.
There was no trace of anything.
Be it people, objects, or any classics or legends, there are none of them. Even in the Mountain and Sea Realm, both in the present world and in ancient times, people are doubting whether the Mountain and Sea Realm of ancient times really existed.
next moment.
The Xichen Sword disappeared.
Instead.
There was a broken sword in Su Chen's hand, and it had more spirituality. This was the spirituality of the Xichen Sword. It was cheering and seemed happy that it could continue to follow Su Chen's steps and move forward side by side.
"All right."
"There's nothing more to say."
"Leave."
"Forget the fairy world."
After doing all this, the old man in the tortoise shell was no longer willing to say anything. He waved his hand and drove Su Chen out of the fairyland.
"senior!"
Su Chen instinctively wanted to resist, and his soul consciousness of ninety million miles burst out.
pity.
But it was like a gentle breeze, unable to shake the tortoise-shell old man's attack in the slightest.
Everything is calm.
In this dead fairyland.
The earth veins were churning, and a huge, rotten green dragon slowly crawled out from the ruins of the abyss. He stared at Su Chen who was leaving and uttered an incomprehensible whisper.
"Tree!"
"Old turtle."
"Does the fairy world really have a future?"
"In that battle, countless heroes died, but we still had to protect the tree that was sent away. Can it really bring new vitality to the fairyland..."
Qinglong is narrating.
His eyes were fixed on the direction where Su Chen left.
Don't know either.
Looking at the trees.
Still looking at people.
"I don't know either."
"but."
"This is the only hope for the fairy world."
The tortoise shell man disappeared, and was replaced by a huge blind tortoise. Even worse than this rotten green dragon was the giant, decaying tortoise.
"White Tiger is dead, Suzaku is dead, and I will die soon, but you are the only one who can survive!"
"Old turtle."
"If there really is a day when the fairy world revives, I'm afraid I won't be able to wait for it."
"You... must live to see that day."
"Show me the new fairyland!"
At this moment, the Rotten Green Dragon completely fell. A mysterious spirit bead in its mouth absorbed all his vitality and luck and descended upon the old turtle.
"Will do."
"There will definitely be such a day."
The spirit pearl nourished the old turtle and turned into one of his eyes.
But this was the result of the fall of Qinglong.
Sad?
The old turtle was very sad.
But countless years have passed, and it has seen the passing of one companion after another. It has long been numb with sadness and can no longer show the slightest bit of sadness.
It did not see the fall, turn into a world of dead trees, and merge into the fairyland.
"There will be a day like this."
"We will wait."
"The day when the immortals defeat the gods again and reign supreme over the nine heavens..."
It's whispering.
It's waiting.
Waiting for that person's return, so that the immortal can return to the position that rightfully belongs to him.
……
……
When Su Chen opened his eyes, he had actually appeared in the trial space of Lingyun City. At this moment, a three-legged golden crow, like the sun, was staring at Su Chen in horror.
"You've already passed the final trial?!"
"It's so fast!"
"Boy, what does it look like to pass the trial!"
A series of anxious voices were heard.
At this moment.
Su Chen discovered that in addition to the golden crow that was as tall as the sun, there were also various phantoms in the entire trial space. They were all images of mythical beasts in myths and legends, and they were looking at him eagerly.
The final trial!
This is the final test in the legend.
These trial spirits, just like chasing stars, are waiting for Su Chen to speak and answer their questions about the final trial.
"The final trial..."
"strangeness."
"What's in there?!"
Su Chen rubbed his brows, trying to recall, but inexplicably he felt that he could not remember anything about the final trial.
The memory is clearly there.
But I just can’t remember it.
The Tree of Immortality, for unknown reasons, also became silent, as if it had fallen into a deep sleep.
"strangeness."
"What exactly is this final trial like?!"
"I just can't remember anything at all."
Su Chen was stunned for a moment and did not pay attention to these trial spirits. Instead, he looked at the black broken sword that appeared inexplicably in his hand. This was a very terrifying sword of incarnation.
wrong.
Perhaps, it is not the sword of incarnation.
"This is……"
Su Chen narrowed his eyes slightly.
He did not see any marks of deification on this black broken sword, but rather a more mysterious mark.
what is this? !!
"It feels like something that is superior to the Dao Mark of Transformation..."
This conjecture made Su Chen stunned.
Above the level of incarnation?
This is the ineffable Dao Zun...
Or something else?
Buzz!
The black broken sword trembled, and Su Chen only then realized that the feeling given to him by the broken sword was actually the same as that of the Xichen Sword.
Or.
This is his Xichen Sword!
It was just like a dream, he couldn't remember anything at all. If he forced himself to recall, Su Chen felt as if something terrible would happen. (End of this chapter)
