#254 - Buried for nine days
Mystic runes surged into his legs, continuously imprinting themselves onto his flesh and blood.
During this process, Jun Wuxie's body and meridians couldn't withstand so many mystic runes, causing his already shattered meridians to completely break down almost instantly.
"Life Blood Pill!" the mysterious woman reminded him.
He immediately refined several Life Blood Pills, using their essence to forcibly repair his meridians, barely managing to hold on.
Several days later.
The runes imprinted on the flesh and bones of his legs gradually generated a large amount of information that flooded into his sea of consciousness.
This was a secret technique for cultivating a divine ability.
Divine Speed, No Distance!
Moving like a divine wind, ignoring distance!
Under the influence of the mystic runes, his legs laid a solid foundation for cultivating this divine ability.
He clearly felt that his legs were somewhat different from before.
But he couldn't quite put his finger on exactly where the difference lay.
This divine ability was extremely profound and mysterious.
However, upon awakening, he automatically gained entry into it.
It was just that, to improve this divine ability, he needed to slowly comprehend it.
"Well, not bad, you successfully opened the first Mystic Gate," the mysterious woman said indifferently.
"I say, Miss Qingxue, shouldn't you praise me a little, like saying I'm divinely gifted, amazingly talented, and unprecedented in history? I would be very happy."
Jun Wuxie grimaced, his body still experiencing a strong sense of pain.
Although his physical body strength had increased dramatically and his blood energy was much purer than before,
the damage to his physical body was still present and had not been completely repaired.
He refined all the remaining Life Blood Pills, slowly repairing his body.
"It's enough that I'm happy, does your happiness matter?"
Jun Wuxie's mouth twitched a couple of times.
It was really hard to be friends with her.
Her words were too harsh.
After his body was completely repaired,
he got up and stretched his muscles and bones.
As he moved his arms, golden blood energy surged, and he felt that every inch of his flesh and blood was filled with explosive power!
He carefully felt the changes in his physical body strength, checked the purity and storage of blood energy in his blessed land, and even he himself found it hard to believe!
Moreover, he discovered that his talent level had increased by a full four levels!
Opening the Mystic Gate actually directly increased him from a Threefold Ancient King to a Sevenfold Ancient King!
His strength had increased four or five times!
This was just a simple increase in strength. If you add the physical defense strength and the awakened divine ability, Divine Speed, No Distance, the overall strength improvement would definitely be more than four or five times!
As for the Primordial True Eye, he hadn't studied it yet, and didn't know what special abilities it could grant him.
"Miss Qingxue, can I go into the Town Suppressing Tower to take a look now?"
He had always been thinking about the Town Suppressing Tower, wanting to know what kind of fierce and evil thing was suppressed inside, and what it looked like.
At the same time, he was even more looking forward to cultivating that heaven-defying divine ability—the Primordial Undefeated Golden Body!
That was a divine ability that could cultivate an incarnation with 99% of the true body's combat power!
It seemed that he should meet the cultivation conditions now, right?
Ye Qingxue had said that to cultivate the Primordial Undefeated Golden Body, he had to enter the Town Suppressing Tower.
Only inside the Town Suppressing Tower could he find something to help him cultivate this divine ability!
The mysterious woman didn't respond, quietly looking at the Town Suppressing Tower, and remained silent for a long time.
Just as Jun Wuxie couldn't help but want to ask her a second time, she turned to look at him and said very seriously, "Once you step into the Town Suppressing Tower, your life can only follow that path, and there is no possibility of turning back. Have you thought it through clearly?"
Jun Wuxie was stunned, looked at her serious eyes, and said, "Is that path the same as the path you are walking?"
The mysterious woman nodded without saying a word.
Jun Wuxie suddenly smiled and said, "Aren't we already bound together? The path you want to take is the path I will take in the future. I can hardly turn back anymore, so what is there to consider?"
"Follow me."
The mysterious woman didn't say anything more, and walked towards the Town Suppressing Tower.
Jun Wuxie, filled with strong curiosity, followed behind her and came to the gate at the bottom of the Town Suppressing Tower.
"Remember, anything you see inside, you are not allowed to mention after leaving the Eternal Divine Palace!"
She said solemnly and seriously.
Immediately, with a wave of her long sleeve, she disappeared with Jun Wuxie in front of the tower.
Jun Wuxie only felt that the scene in front of him suddenly changed.
He appeared in a vast and boundless void.
The sky in the void was fiery red, filled with endless golden-red divine flames.
But he didn't feel any heat.
Upon closer inspection, he felt something was wrong.
How did those divine flames look like huge and boundless feathers?
"Master."
A female voice came from within the boundless divine flames.
Jun Wuxie was taken aback. After looking at it for a long time, he finally saw clearly that it was actually a Vermilion Bird!
This Vermilion Bird covered the vast universe, its body so huge that it was beyond imagination!
The mysterious woman led him forward, traversing the endless void.
A three-meter-long bronze coffin appeared in sight.
The mysterious woman stopped in front of the bronze coffin.
Jun Wuxie felt that familiar aura, eerie, evil, and indescribable!
That aura came from the bronze coffin in front of him!
Circles of bronze chains engraved with runes were wrapped around the bronze coffin.
"This… is that the fierce and evil thing suppressed inside?"
Jun Wuxie swallowed, whether it was the bronze coffin or the bronze chains, they were covered with dense runes, looking a bit terrifying.
"See for yourself."
The mysterious woman gently waved her jade hand.
In the middle of the coffin lid of the bronze coffin, a rune array lit up.
Jun Wuxie took a deep breath and stepped forward a few steps.
Through this rune array, he saw the scene inside the coffin.
It was a corpse, lying quietly inside, with bronze chains engraved with runes wrapped around it.
The surface of the corpse was covered with order runes, constantly evolving, making it impossible to see its facial features clearly.
This corpse didn't have any red hair, completely different from the claw he had seen protruding from the crack in the tower door before.
As he watched, the corpse in front of him gradually changed in his eyes.
This corpse gradually turned into nothingness in his eyes, turning into a vast and boundless starry sky and universe.
In that universe, endless stars were being destroyed, like blooming fireworks.
One universe soon became two universes, three universes…
Jun Wuxie couldn't remember how many destroyed universes he had seen, it was simply countless!
It was an infinite number of Ganges sands of universes being destroyed!
The scene made his head ache, his mental power was severely depleted, his head was heavy and his feet were light, and he staggered, almost unable to stand.
At this moment, the mysterious woman waved her hand.
The rune array went silent.
Jun Wuxie's spirit and gaze were instantly disconnected from the scene.
He staggered back several steps, his whole body covered in cold sweat like rain, and looked at the mysterious woman, shocked, and said, "What exactly is buried inside? How could a corpse turn into an infinite number of destroyed universes? Am I hallucinating?"
"You are not hallucinating," the mysterious woman shook her head gently and said, "What is buried inside is Heaven…"
"What is buried?"
Jun Wuxie was dumbfounded, unable to believe his ears.
"You heard right, what is buried inside is Heaven," the mysterious woman repeated.
"This…"
Jun Wuxie couldn't speak for a long time.
This subverted his imagination.
Before coming in, he thought it was a three-headed, six-armed monster.
But it turned out to be Heaven being buried?
Is that Heaven that fierce and evil thing?
The mysterious woman ignored his shocked expression and said, "He is one of the Nine Heavens. The Town Suppressing Tower suppresses the Nine Heavens. In the cultivation world, since ancient times, nine has been the extreme number. The so-called Nine Heavens does not simply refer to nine heavens, but means Ganges sands, an infinite number of universes."
"The Nine Heavens are different from the Heaven you understand. They are not the destiny and order of Heaven transformed by the rules of the universe, but humans who have cultivated to a certain realm. These nine humans travel through endless universes, kill the original destiny of those universes, and refine endless universes into their own bodies, becoming the masters of Ganges sands of universes…"
"Were they born eerie and evil?"
Jun Wuxie really couldn't imagine how strong such beings were.
They actually killed the destiny of Ganges sands of universes and refined them into their bodies!
The mysterious woman shook her head and said, "No, they were later contaminated by the power of the Dark…"
Jun Wuxie: …
He felt a chill run down his spine!
Such beings would actually be contaminated by the power of the Dark?
"Who… killed them?"
He really wanted to know now, which strong man could do this, kill the Nine Heavens, and suppress their corpses here!
The master of the Town Suppressing Tower, or the master of the Eternal Divine Palace?
Or is it the mysterious woman Ye Qingxue in front of him?
"Don't look at me with that kind of gaze. I can't kill the Nine Heavens. In my peak period, I could barely fight one of the Nine Heavens to a draw. They cultivated for endless years, but I only cultivated for thousands of years, and my realm was slightly inferior."
"Then you now…"
"My current strength is less than one ten-billionth of my peak period. These years of suppressing the obsessions of the Nine Heavens, and enduring the long years, have almost exhausted me to the point where the oil lamp is dry…"
"How can you recover, I can help you!"
Jun Wuxie blurted out, and only after saying it did he realize that he was simply overestimating himself too much.
How could he help such a being?
"Find the Primordial Divine Gold and repair the Town Suppressing Tower, so I don't have to expend my power to suppress the Heavens on the upper levels, and I will slowly recover naturally."
As she said this, she pointed to the bronze coffin and said, "The Primordial Undefeated Golden Body you are about to cultivate requires the essence and blood of the Nine Heavens as a guide, merging a drop of its essence and blood into your avatar."
"What? Merge the essence and blood of the Heavens?"
Jun Wuxie was stunned. Such an existence, let alone essence and blood, even a single strand of hair drifting out could crush the universe.
How could he withstand its essence and blood?
"Only by merging the essence and blood of the Nine Heavens can you cultivate an unparalleled and supreme avatar. As for the problem you're worried about, I will solve it. I will seal the power of the Nine Heavens' essence and blood to a level that you can currently withstand. As your realm improves, the seal will be gradually unlocked, releasing the power of the essence and blood. This will steadily ensure that your avatar maintains the highest strength at each stage."
"Let me digest this for a moment..."
Jun Wuxie felt his brain was a bit muddled.
Coming to this Town Universe Tower, what he saw and heard was simply unimaginable!
Before this, he would never have dreamed that it would be like this...
