#2827 - Shanhe Di Jing
A touch of melancholy appeared on the handsome face of the white-robed youth.
At this moment, he seemed to have suddenly become somewhat sentimental.
Thinking back to the past, his younger self was once carefree.
Although he later awakened his bloodline and learned of his special identity, he had spent some years walking on thin ice.
Fortunately, he had family who loved him dearly, and a very doting older sister.
Besides his sister, there were many, many others who had been good to him.
With their help, he had won his battle against fate that one time.
But this path was destined to be fraught with difficulties, and the road ahead was full of thorns.
Later, one thing after another happened, leading to where he was today.
He wondered if his old friends were well, and where they were now.
"Heh…"
Thinking of this, the white-robed youth gave a desolate smile.
Perhaps when they met again someday, even his own family would despise him as he was now.
So unscrupulous, so cold and ruthless.
But he was unwilling to resign himself to this. If he were to become a stepping stone for others, and ultimately lose his life, he would never be able to see those he cared about most.
"What have I done wrong? I just want to live, to forge my own brilliant path, to reunite with my family one day.
I am not wrong!"
His expression gradually turned cold, and his words were filled with determination.
It was as if he were speaking to himself, and also to his family who were far away in some unknown place.
"Sister, if we meet again one day, and you know what I have done, would you still draw your sword and point it at my throat as you did when I made mistakes in the past?
Actually, I know you love me the most. Back then, you were just upset, disappointed that I didn't live up to my potential, and only wanted to scare me…"
…
At the same time, near the entrance of the Immortal Palace, the true disciples of the Four Great Dao Lineages finally suppressed the Ghost Witch Curse.
The immortal power cocoons on their bodies gradually dissipated, and the eyes of all the disciples focused on their faces.
They were completely relieved when they saw that the black纹痕 on their eyes, faces, and necks had all disappeared.
"We have finally suppressed it. After this incident, we must be more vigilant and not fall in the same place a second time.
Especially you!"
The true disciples looked at the inner disciples of their respective sects, "We may still be able to deal with it with our own cultivation.
But you, once you encounter such an event, you will surely die!"
The disciples who had tried to touch the corpses earlier felt a chill down their spines upon hearing this.
"Alright, let's continue deeper."
The true disciples said no more.
Jun Wuxie quietly followed behind.
In the process of going deeper into the Immortal Palace, the disciples of each Dao Lineage were very careful, searching along the way with their eyes while advancing.
However, after going deep for a long distance, they did not find any opportunities, but saw many corpses.
The corpses looked exactly the same as those seen near the entrance before.
But this time they did not pay too much attention, only glanced at them a few times, and detoured far away.
The experiences of the senior brothers and sisters were still vivid in their minds.
The corpses in this Immortal Palace contained a great ominous curse. Once contaminated, only those with the realm and strength of true disciples had a chance of survival, otherwise they would surely die.
"We had too high expectations, thinking too well of the Immortal Palace.
We originally thought that there would be many opportunities left by the master of the Immortal Palace here.
We never thought that there would only be danger and no opportunities!
Along the way, we have passed so many places and have not seen anything left by the master of the Immortal Palace.
This hall is also the same…"
At this time, they were in a great hall.
The hall was indeed magnificent, with immortal韵 flowing.
The top of the hall was very high, and there were many small frames on the four walls, which at first glance were used to store certain items.
However, now the frames were already empty, with nothing at all, as if they had been looted.
Secret Scripture Pavilion was the name of this hall.
They originally thought that it contained the cultivation methods and immortal techniques left by the master of the Immortal Palace, and even his own cultivation insights and feelings.
But there was nothing, empty.
Looking at the environment and furnishings here, it did not seem like it had experienced fighting, it was very clean, and there were no traces of battle.
This place must have once stored many scriptures.
But later they disappeared.
Since they were not destroyed in battle, then someone must have collected them and transferred them to other places.
This person should be the master of the Immortal Palace.
This was the unanimous thought in everyone's mind.
"What a pity, if the scriptures and secrets here were still here, it would definitely be very beneficial for us!
I don't know why the master of the Immortal Palace took away all the things here back then.
Could it be that he was afraid that the creatures from the underground alien space would break in, causing everything here to fall into the hands of the enemy?"
"That's not right, the Immortal Palace clearly has a field, those creatures don't dare to approach at all, let alone enter the Immortal Palace."
"There are no gains here, let's continue deeper to see."
The true disciples did not want to waste time here.
They wanted to end the Immortal Palace trip as soon as possible, so that they could wholeheartedly refine the evil curse in their bodies.
After a long time, not to mention other things, just the fact that they had to suppress it every moment was already a very exhausting thing for their spirit, energy, and spirit.
As their spirit and immortal power continued to be consumed, once their spirit, energy, and spirit were weakened to a certain extent, the curse in their bodies would inevitably launch a counterattack.
At that time, it would probably be difficult to suppress it again, and they would also be completely eroded by the curse, lose their minds, and become evil puppets controlled by the curse, the consequences were unimaginable.
The disciples no longer stayed and left from the gate deep in the hall.
Not long after, the vision ahead gradually widened, and a vast and majestic mountain range came into view.
Rivers flowed between the mountains.
The river was very wide, the water flow was turbulent, and it rolled up hundred-zhang giant waves, like a tsunami.
Between the rushing river, the waves crashed against the shore, making bursts of roars, and the momentum was huge.
The geographical position where everyone was at this time was relatively high. At a glance, they could see a large area of mountains and rivers, what a magnificent picture.
"Have you felt the Dao rhyme?"
Lei Huang suddenly looked at the true disciples of other Dao Lineages beside him.
Several people nodded, with a hint of yearning and excitement between their expressions.
The Dao rhyme was very faint, but it was extremely profound.
"You quickly follow us!"
Several true disciples, at this time, could no longer care about the orders of the sect's high-level officials. Instead of following behind the disciples, they took the lead and ran to the front.
Such Dao rhyme made them yearn for it, and they couldn't wait to see what was going on and where the Dao rhyme came from.
When the disciples heard this, they also became excited.
They did not feel any Dao rhyme.
But the senior brothers and sisters had said it, so the Dao rhyme must exist.
Because their strength was too weak and their divine sense perception was not enough, they had not sensed it.
Being able to make the senior brothers and sisters behave like this, they couldn't help but feel excited. They could imagine how attractive the Dao rhyme was.
For a time, the disciples ran wildly.
The speed of the true disciples was too fast.
Although they had slowed down their pace to allow the inner disciples to keep up, the speed was still too fast for the inner disciples.
They had to run at full speed to barely keep up.
Flying was not possible within the Immortal Palace. The field here had an air ban effect.
Not to mention these inner disciples, even the true disciples could not stay in the air.
Everyone followed the true disciples over several mountains and came to the rushing river.
When they got here, the mysterious and profound Dao rhyme became clearer and stronger.
The true disciples were shocked and had the urge to sit down immediately and experience the Dao rhyme properly.
But they restrained themselves.
Before finding the source of the Dao rhyme, they had to find out what was going on first.
They continued to move forward, came to the river bank, walked along the river bank, and went to the place where the Dao rhyme was getting stronger and stronger.
Not long after, in the winding upper reaches of the river, they saw a huge bluestone ancient monument.
The bluestone ancient monument stood in the middle of the river bank between the river and the mountain range, like a giant sword inserted into the ground.
The ancient monument was filled with vicissitudes of ancient meaning and had a strong aura of years.
But what impacted people's hearts the most was not these, but the dense scriptures on the ancient monument.
The scriptures were profound and flowed with immortal light. The moment their eyes focused on the scriptures, they seemed to see endless sword energy rushing out from within the scriptures.
Immediately, the sword energy turned into giant waves, like the rushing river next to it, coming mightily. The power of the sword energy waves was suffocating.
The sword energy that surged like giant waves had a very heavy feeling, making people unable to breathe.
On the great river phenomenon evolved from sword energy, a continuous, majestic, and vast mountain range emerged, rising and falling with the crests of the waves, as if to suppress the heavens for eternity with the long river of time, domineering and boundless!
"Mountain and River Emperor Scripture!"
Several true disciples recognized the ancient writing.
That was the writing of the Immortal Ancient Era!
They had a wide range of knowledge and naturally understood this ancient writing.
The inner disciples could not understand it and had never been exposed to it before.
Although they could not understand it, they could feel that the scriptures on the ancient monument were very terrifying, the Dao rhyme was too strong and too domineering.
Now they heard the senior brothers and sisters say that the scriptures on the ancient monument were the Mountain and River Emperor Scripture, and they were shocked!
Anything in the cultivation world, whether it was a cultivation method, immortal technique, or resource material, as long as it had the word "Emperor", it was a peerless level!
What was an Emperor?
That was the supreme existence that had once appeared in the Hunyuan Great World from ancient times to the present!
The Emperor was on par with the heavens, possessing a status equal to the Dao of Heaven.
Their methods were heaven-defying, and under the mighty power of the Emperor, all races worshipped and obeyed!
The Emperor, the strongest in Hunyuan!
How many Emperors had appeared in the long river of time from ancient times to the present?
You could count them on two hands!
There are only ten historical records about Emperor Realm existences!
They were all existences who sat in charge of several eras, existences who sat in charge of epochs.
In every era with an Emperor, the order of the world was at its most stable, ushering in a golden age.
The world would become much more peaceful.
However, those Emperor Realm existences from ancient times are long gone.
Historical records state that eight out of the ten Emperor Realm experts died in the borderlands!
They shouldered the responsibility of guarding the Great Mixed Origin World, facing the encirclement of the Dark Emperors until the very last moment of the battle.
In the end, they were still outnumbered.
Alas, no matter how amazingly talented or invincible in one-on-one combat the Emperor Realm existences of the Mixed Origin were,
they were still at an absolute disadvantage in terms of numbers.
Each of them would be besieged on the dark battlefield, eventually fighting to the point of exhaustion, basically dying from overwork.
At the moment of death, they would burn their Emperor's Divine Soul, extract their Emperor's Dao Bone, and forcefully kill or severely injure a Dark Emperor, thus fading away, their Emperor's blood staining the borderlands.
The remaining two Great Emperors also participated in the war against the darkness.
They did not die on the battlefield, but they were left with very serious injuries.
After the darkness retreated, they disappeared.
In the long years that followed, there was no news of them, and no one saw their踪迹.
The world speculated that the Great Emperors were too seriously injured to heal and had passed away in some mysterious space.
There was also speculation that the Great Emperors had healed their Dao injuries and left to seek their own future, to pursue even stronger power.
However, all the speculations have not been confirmed.
No one knows what happened to those two Great Emperors.
Everything about Emperor Realm experts is fascinating and admired.
Now, there are Emperor-level scriptures in the Immortal Palace!
Could this be a cultivation method created by a Great Emperor?
"Our opportunity has come!
Mountain and River Emperor Scripture, I have seen legends about the Mountain and River Emperor Scripture in ancient books.
The Mountain and River Emperor Scripture was created by an Emperor Realm expert called Mountain and River Sword Immortal during the Immortal Ancient period, and it is the method he cultivated!
I didn't expect that the Mountain and River Sword Immortal's method would be encountered by us today and appear in this place.
What is the origin of this Immortal Palace?
Or rather, did the master of the Immortal Palace obtain the inheritance of the Mountain and River Sword Immortal? Otherwise, how could there be ancient steles in the Immortal Palace?
I wonder if these bluestone ancient steles and the scriptures engraved on them are from the hands of the Mountain and River Sword Immortal…"
The true disciples of the Four Great Dao Lineages were all extremely shocked and excited.
The true跡 of an Emperor Realm expert!
If these characters were all personally engraved by the Mountain and River Sword Immortal.
Then, the value of this ancient stele is even more immeasurable!
"Quick, sit down around the ancient stele, and enter the state of enlightenment by receiving the Dao rhythm of the ancient stele's scriptures!
A good comprehension is better than ten thousand years of cultivation!"
After Lei Huang finished speaking, he walked directly to the ancient stele and sat down, and then, a clone was separated from his body to silently guard beside him.
Immediately afterwards, Lei Huang closed his eyes and entered enlightenment.
The other true disciples saw this and stepped forward to comprehend the Emperor's rhythm.
The inner disciples were also the same, following suit.
What kind of good fortune would one have to have the opportunity to observe the handwriting of an Emperor Realm expert?
Moreover, it is still the cultivation method scriptures of an Emperor Realm expert.
Each of these scriptures contains the Dao rhythm of an Emperor Realm expert, containing his sword intent.
Not to mention comprehending how much, even if you can comprehend a trace, it will be a great opportunity, better than everything.
…
Jun Wuxie witnessed this scene on a nearby mountain and was a little surprised.
He didn't expect that there would be such an ancient stele here, engraved with Emperor Scriptures.
Those true disciples can't see it, but he can see at a glance that these Emperor Scriptures are not of the Great Emperor level, but of the Heavenly Emperor level.
However, the Emperor's Sword Intent Dao rhythm contained in the scriptures engraved on the ancient stele has not reached the Heavenly Emperor level.
Obviously, the person who engraved the scriptures was not a Heavenly Emperor, but a Half-Step Heavenly Emperor Realm.
Undoubtedly, the person who engraved the scriptures must be the Mountain and River Sword Immortal himself.
Another amazingly talented and extremely excellent person.
Being in the Half-Step Heavenly Emperor Realm, he was able to create Heavenly Emperor-level scriptures. What kind of comprehension and talent is this?
It's a pity that the heavens are turbulent, and the era is too cruel. There was not enough time for him to grow stronger, and he eventually fell during the dark invasion.
