I'm Really Not a Witch

Reborn a few years in the past, she can only become a villain to save her life!

Xu Xianxian asks, "Have you ever seen a villain as pure and unpretentious as me?!"

Causing troubl...

Chapter 494: Grand Palace (VIII)

Outside Wuguang City, in a dilapidated Taoist temple.

Xu Xianxian sat upright behind the broken statue, quietly feeling the vast amount of immortal energy flowing within this small world.

Two hexagonal crystals were quietly rotating in her pupils. "The immortal energy around us is almost condensed into substance. I wonder what level of strength the indigenous creatures born here possess."

Judging from the quality and quantity of this immortal energy, this Great Bright Palace might have been created by a celestial immortal. The life derived from a celestial immortal has an average quality that is definitely higher than that of creatures in the ordinary world, and there may even be strong ones above the level of earthly immortals.

But this is not what Xu Xianxian cares about.

What she cared about was that there seemed to be a living celestial being in this Great Light Palace.

"Generally speaking, the immortals of the Great Bright Palace must have fallen, otherwise the palace they inhabited wouldn't have been left in a magical world. These two systems conflict," Xu Xianxian pondered, then looked up at the statue next to her. "Also... the Taoist temple within the Great Bright Palace is so dilapidated, it no longer receives incense and offerings, which means the original prototype of this statue no longer exists."

She reached out and touched the broken statue. The clay sculpture felt only a sense of calm, but nothing else remained.

Compared to the unloved demigod totems seen in the Bloodline Gate, the owner of the Great Light Palace at least still has a legacy, and a very strong presence. All the life born in this palace represents the traces left by this celestial being.

The immortals are indeed beyond time. Even if they fall, they still leave a deep mark in the long river of time.

"Even the true God above the universe will fall?"

Xu Xianxian had only seen similar records in mythology and had never witnessed it with her own eyes, so she couldn't help but have an inexplicable question about this.

Demigods no longer die naturally; having left their mark on the river of time, their lifespans become immensely long. Furthermore, even if they aren't killed accidentally in this life, but simply decay and wither through the normal decay of their souls, they can still return from the river of time and be revived in the next life.

This is the power of a demigod.

The only thing that can kill a demigod, besides paying the price for the throne of the true god, is the backlash brought about by the failure of the cycle of fate.

Not to mention the throne of true God.

Xu Xianxian had seen the throne before. It was the sum total of all matter in the multiverse, the physical throne that symbolized the personification of matter. It was so illogically powerful and immortal that she couldn't imagine any way to deal with it.

She was silent for a moment, then focused her gaze on the small words carved beside the statue, her eyes gradually becoming more profound: "...Heavenly Palace, Twenty-Eight Constellations, Angri Star Official."

Whether it is the twenty-eight constellations or the solar constellations, they are not too unfamiliar terms for an earthling.

Just like Zeus, Odin and Osiris in Western mythology, there are still various myths circulating in the East.

Angri Star Official is one of the twenty-eight constellations. It is represented by a big rooster and has appeared in many legends.

"Could this palace... once have been the residence of the Angri Star Official?"

Xu Xianxian frowned slightly.

It's not that she has never been exposed to the way of immortals. In her previous life, when she was Xu Xian'er, she practiced the Qingmu Xuanfa, which was left by the Qing Emperor, one of the Five Heavenly Emperors. Her lover and best friend were both demon immortals, but even so, she had never seen any immortals who descended from heaven.

I remember Zhuyeqing also said that Earth was a world abandoned by the Heavenly Court, so it became a separate world. So it can be said that when she was born in her previous life, the Heavenly Court no longer existed.

"If Heaven truly exists, why would it abandon Earth? And why did the residence of the Orient Star Official fall into the Gravity Continent? Is this Gravity Continent connected to Heaven?"

The more Xu Xianxian thought about it, the more headache she got.

Her understanding of this information was fragmentary, and she was still missing a lot of important knowledge and intelligence to complete these fragments.

If Bamboo Leaf Green Snake were here now, it would likely learn a lot of information. After all, that green snake is the oldest known creature on Earth. The others have either left, died, or reincarnated.

Patta——

Just as Xu Xianxian was lost in thought, hurried footsteps suddenly came from outside the door, and then several young people ran in in a panic.

The girl frowned, and the nails on her hands suddenly grew long and black. The dark poisonous gas condensed into liquid and dripped from her fingertips, directly corroding the large stone slabs.

No wonder she was so cautious. She had explored many ruins and small worlds and had accumulated a lot of experience. Although this kind of place was not large in area, it had a self-contained ecological structure and countless traps. It was really dangerous.

"Second brother, do you think we can escape to Tianguang City in the east?"

A crisp female voice sounded not far from Xu Xianxian.

This slightly reduced the girl's murderous intent. These young people who came in didn't seem to notice her, and judging from their aura, their strength was not that strong, and they were far from being human immortals (Nine-ring Great Wizards).

Tianguang City in the east?

Xu Xianxian silently memorized the name of the city. It seems that there is not only one place called Wuguang City in the Great Guangming Palace.

"It should be fine." The man next to him was silent for a moment, then he slowly said, "We've walked out of the illusory jungle, and those corrupted jackals won't be able to catch up with us for a while."

"Xiaolong is right. Let's take a break and recover some mana. Then we can continue our journey to Tianguang City."

Another strong male voice sounded next to him.

It is no longer possible to stay in the Lightless City. More and more monks have fallen into depravity in the city. They are all infected by the terrible plague and then lose their minds and go crazy. They are not only trying to rob property and magic weapons, but also to devour people.

Like a hyena, mad as a jackal, no longer a human being.

"Alas... This horrible plague, I wonder how long it will spread..."

The young man called 'Xiaolong' sighed.

Unless it is absolutely necessary, who would want to abandon the hometown where they grew up and flee to another city?

"Tianguang City has a powerful Earth Immortal in charge. They should be able to develop an antidote to the plague." The man with a strong voice continued, "As long as we can escape this disaster, we should be fine."

"Oh no...Brother, my fifth brother is injured...!"

Xiaolong was checking everyone's condition. When it was the fifth brother's turn, he saw that the clothes on the other person's arm were stained with a large area of ​​slightly gray-black blood.

He lifted up the man's sleeve and saw a huge sharp tooth mark on it.
