The Corpse of a Loose Immortal
Chapter 270 The Corpse of a Loose Immortal
The gate to the celestial realm is like a towering mountain, tens of thousands of feet high, seemingly close at hand, yet also as far away as the ends of the earth.
Apart from the gate to the immortal realm and the ground beneath their feet, there are no other landmarks in the immortal domain.
This brings the advantage of having an unprecedentedly good field of vision, allowing people to look thousands of miles away, thus greatly increasing the chances of discovering the remains of immortals.
Similarly, it also greatly reduces the possibility of ordinary cultivators quietly devouring the remains of a wandering immortal.
After separating from Yi Yuanshi, Lueying, and others, Li Xian tried to merge into the void and fly through the air.
However, due to the heavy space, the speed is not fast. In a single breath, it can't even fly more than ten miles. Even the Void Sword Escape technique is greatly affected in this area, and the limit is that it can travel a thousand miles in an instant.
Li Xian did not rush to search for the remains of the scattered immortals, but instead carefully sensed the underlying reasons for the influence contained in the void of the immortal realm.
After a long while, he vaguely sensed something...
This influence stems from the collision and superposition of the void force field of the True Immortal Great World and the void force field of the suspected Immortal Realm, resulting in interference and suppression.
It's like bringing two balloons close together; the area with the strongest compression will inevitably be the area where they are close together.
The changes in the Immortal Realm seem to reflect this.
Of course, this is just his speculation, and the actual situation is clearly beyond his current understanding.
"The Celestial Realm."
Li Xian couldn't help but look towards the gate to the immortal realm, which seemed both far and near to him.
The grandeur of that gate extends beyond just the visual level; it also extends to the dimensional level.
Just as the sun hangs high in the sky, immense and vast, no matter which direction the creatures on the ground run, it remains suspended there. The distance between them does not become shorter as they run past, nor does it become farther as they turn around.
This is a size misalignment caused by distance and dimension.
Just as Li Xian was sensing the changes in the void and examining the gate to the immortal realm, he suddenly sensed something.
Suddenly, the enormous gate to the celestial realm, as massive as a mountain, began to tremble slightly.
This level of vibration...
"No, the tremor isn't coming from the gate to the Immortal Realm, it's from the Immortal Domain itself!"
Li Xian suddenly looked up and saw ripples spreading in the direction of the gate to the immortal realm.
This ripple traveled through space, creating turbulent disturbances at the spatial level. Along with it, several almost invisible streams of light were projected out from within.
This sign...
"Ripples, moving so fast!?"
He was somewhat surprised.
Didn't they say that Void Ripple only happens thirty or forty times a month?
Fifty times is considered extremely rare.
But how long have they been in the Immortal Realm?
It will only take three or four hours.
At this rate...
Over a month, that's at least a hundred times!
Just as Li Xian sensed this frequency, three of the streams of light that emanated from the gate to the immortal realm seemed to be forcibly captured by some terrifying force and were blocked within the gate's range.
The other three streams of light that had been heading in three different directions were soon captured and pulled toward the gate to the celestial realm.
Only two of them flew rapidly in two different directions, gradually disappearing into the distance.
This strange phenomenon...
"There are people near the gate to the immortal realm!"
Li Xian, and almost everyone who witnessed this scene, simultaneously realized the truth.
Someone is blocking the gate to the celestial realm.
They wanted to stop the corpse of the scattered immortal the moment it was swept out of the gate of the immortal realm.
Then, recalling that power that far surpassed that of a Pure Yang True Immortal...
"A Celestial Immortal specializing in the Void Realm has made a move. Using the power of his Celestial Realm, he forcefully suppressed the Immortal Domain and delivered the person directly to the gates of the Immortal Realm..."
Fairy!
In the entire True Immortal Great World, only the Nine Heavens Holy Land and the Heavenly Origin Sect possess True Immortals of this level.
The Dragon-Controlling Sect's guardian beast might possess the combat power of a Celestial Immortal, but...
Just like the Great Luo Immortal Sect has the Miluo Heaven as its foundation, such beings cannot be regarded as the regular combat force of Celestial Immortals.
Therefore, we can infer...
"That figure at the gate to the immortal realm is either Zhang Taiyuan, Gu Xianyi, or Song Yunqing!"
After Li Xian realized this, his eyes gleamed. Without any hesitation, he soared into the air and rushed towards the gate to the immortal realm at full speed.
but……
After flying for a while, he seemed to sense something.
But then a streak of light flashed across the boundless void, drifting thousands of miles away, and suddenly…
It was the corpse of a wandering immortal!
This discovery surprised Li Xian slightly.
Although there were many remnants of scattered immortals in the Ancient Burial Ground, they were not the true corpses of scattered immortals. Taking advantage of the situation, Li Xian slightly changed his flight angle and headed straight for that stream of light.
With the sword soaring through the air and several consecutive Void Sword Escapes, a towering figure nearly two thousand meters tall appeared before us.
"A top-tier immortal!"
Li Xian's pupils contracted slightly.
The Primordial Spirit Immortals are merely in the form of a primordial spirit. After their fall, their souls dissipate and their spirits disperse, leaving no substantial remains.
Only immortals can leave behind their remains.
The body of a human immortal is also known as the true form of the Dharma body or the innate Dao body.
Only after forging a human immortal body can a primordial spirit immortal rely on the profound mysteries of the body to rediscover the Great Dao, and further cultivate the Great Dao to a high level, even to perfection, thus preparing for future union with and proof of the Dao.
Myths have circulated since ancient times that humans are born with the Dao body, containing the three thousand Great Daos, which is why they can become the darlings of heaven and earth and the protagonists of the world.
But in reality, this statement is both true and false.
Ordinary humans naturally do not possess such supernatural abilities.
But when the primordial spirit of a wandering immortal truly forges the body of a human immortal, the legend can become reality.
Those who cultivate to the level of a true deity with a primordial Dao body are indeed able to perceive the three thousand Great Daos.
The true form of a typical immortal can reach a size of a thousand meters. As cultivation deepens, the true form will become increasingly larger, eventually reaching over two thousand meters.
Although the corpse of the human immortal in front of us did not reach the two thousand meter limit, it was still 1,900 meters tall, which is considered top-tier among human immortals.
The treasures carried by such a mortal immortal... After examining them, Li Xian quickly found a storage ring.
Immediately following, he used his magical power to guide the manifestation of three Daoist auras.
only……
Both the storage ring and the three Daoist auras were damaged.
In particular, the three Daoist auras belong to three Daoist artifacts, one of which has reached the quality of a superior Daoist artifact.
However, these Daoist auras have been almost completely exhausted, leaving only remnants that prove they were once part of a Dao artifact.
Especially one of them; when Li picked it up, he seemed to have used a little too much force, and as a result…
A magnificent Dao artifact shattered with a single "crack"...
It turned into dust and scattered.
This scene left Li Xian speechless.
After a while, he finally turned his gaze to the two clusters of Daoist energy.
"The superior-grade Dao artifact is severely damaged and can only be melted down into materials to repair compatible superior-grade Dao artifacts in the future. The other ordinary Dao artifact, however, has only suffered severe depletion of its Dao essence... It has the potential for repair... but the cost will be relatively high..."
While examining the two Dao artifacts, he also glanced at the storage ring with his divine sense.
Compared to the two Dao artifacts that had suffered significant damage, the contents of the storage ring were more unexpected to him.
Almost all restorative pills and life-saving items were used up.
But inside, he actually found several materials that could be used to forge Dao artifacts, and there were also some strange treasures with different effects.
He did a quick calculation and estimated the value of the two severely damaged artifacts...
The valuation is between 400 billion and 500 billion.
However, the materials in the storage ring are worth at least 600 billion.
in other words……
"The spoils from just this corpse of a rogue immortal amount to trillions."
Li Xian thought to himself.
Trillions!
What does this even mean?!
Many cultivators at the Foundation Establishment stage cannot accumulate even 10,000 units of merit in a year. If they want to accumulate this amount of funds, it would take them a full 100 million years if all goes smoothly.
This was because several of the Dao artifacts on the corpse of this wandering immortal were shattered, and many of the resources in the storage ring were exhausted.
Otherwise, wouldn't the wealth of a human immortal be worth trillions, or even tens of trillions?
"call out!"
At that very moment, six streaks of light arrived simultaneously from the horizon.
The six people appeared to have formed a small team and were moving in groups.
However, when they finally arrived within a thousand miles of the immortal's corpse and saw the figure who had arrived first, their expressions changed simultaneously.
"Someone!"
"It's Li Xian! Li Xian who killed the Demon Lord Rahu!"
"True Lord Chi Li, what should we do!?"
The men spoke with apprehension, their gazes almost simultaneously turning to the leader.
The leader, True Monarch Chi Li, shifted his expression for a moment, but then ordered without hesitation: "Go!"
After saying that, he was the first to turn and leave.
"Walk?"
One of them hesitated, "True Lord, that immortal corpse is clearly that of a top-tier immortal. It might even possess a superior Dao artifact. We..."
"Go if you want! Don't take me with you!"
True Monarch Chi Li said in a deep voice, "Tantai Yue has reminded us time and again that Li Xian's true strength is greater than everyone guessed! Outsiders speculate that the death of Demon Lord Luo Hou may have been caused by Lu Linyuan, the sect master of the Great Luo Immortal Sect, but she firmly believes that the one who achieved such a feat was Li Xian! With our lineup, are we going to send someone who can even kill a Heavenly Monarch to their death?"
Hearing what True Lord Chi Li said, the others suppressed their restless desires and quickly left.
When they appeared a thousand miles away, Li Xian naturally saw the six figures.
"It looks like True Lord Chi Li?"
He was a little unsure.
There are only a handful of top True Monarchs in the Eastern Continent, and Chi Li is one of them.
Like Leng Xingchu, he was the number one expert in the Dao Realm of the Great Yu Immortal Dynasty.
The two are evenly matched.
Li Xian and Leng Xingchu had fought before, and Li Xian wasn't badly hurt...
But it's only not bad.
It's impossible to force him to use his full strength.
Therefore, he wasn't very interested in Chi Li Zhenjun, whose strength was similar to his own.
Seeing them leave, he did not pursue them, but instead turned to the corpse of the immortal. After searching for a while and confirming that no treasures had been missed, he hesitated for a moment, and then put away the corpse of the immortal.
Now that we have obtained its magical artifacts and treasures, we should let it rest in peace when the time comes.
Having done all this, he soared into the sky and continued his journey toward the gates of the immortal realm.
There……
That was the place he longed to fight.
……
While Li Xian was rushing to the gate of the immortal realm, many people also had the same guess as him because of the strange movements of the gate of the immortal realm.
In an instant, the Undying Black Dragon, a descendant of the demon god Xiang Liu of the demon race, the god race's Aolai and the Nine Spirits Twin Star Gods, a young man from the Dragon Control Sect who rides a dragon, including Song Yunqing from Tianyuan Mountain and her little-known junior brother, four groups of people simultaneously broke through the air and headed straight for the gate to the immortal realm.
With the opening of the Immortal Realm, some people have come seeking the remains of wandering immortals.
Others, however, came specifically to suppress the prodigies of various races.
and……
Number one in the Dao Realm?
Their supernatural abilities...
It's certainly worth striving for first place!
