Chapter 454 The Mystery of the Immortal Dynasty's Demise: Divine Transformation Treasure

What may seem like trash, the barrier-breaking talisman, is actually a controlled resource.

Whether in Chiyuan or Taihu, it will not be open to ordinary cultivators. Wang Yu has accumulated this batch for countless years, with a quantity exceeding five hundred.

Faced with special talismans that can break through restrictions.

A large hole was suddenly torn in the protective layer of the Eastern Palace, and Wang Yu flew inside. The restrictions were quickly restored in the cycle of the palace layout.

Wang Yu glanced back at it and then stopped caring.

The Eastern Palace is both important and unimportant, but it certainly contains some fine treasures.

Entering through the main gate, there were no traps or anything like that. Unexpectedly, a coffin was placed in the hall in a very unusual way.

Wang Yu immediately became much more cautious and did not approach rashly.

There are many versions of the legend about the destruction of the ancient immortal dynasty, the most widely circulated and accepted one being that it was caused by the ancient demon breaking the seal.

After all, most of the ruins of the ancient immortal dynasties have severe signs of battle damage, and it is not unfounded to conclude that they were destroyed by ancient demons.

Given the powerful cultivation world of ancient times, only the ancient demons could cause such severe damage, even completely destroying the Immortal Dynasty.

The Taiyin Gate was built on the ruins of the Immortal Dynasty.

The fact that the coffin was placed in the Eastern Palace in this way suggests that the person in question is not ordinary. After looking around and not finding any ancestral tablet, Wang Yu couldn't help but feel suspicious.

"Could the crown prince be inside...?"

However, as soon as he thought about it, Wang Yu rejected the idea himself. Given the importance of the Crown Prince, even if he died at the end, he shouldn't be placed here directly.

It's more likely that the Crown Prince arranged it.

After searching without finding anything else, Wang Yu returned to the coffin. He transformed his divine sense into threads, which spread out to cover the entire area, sensing the situation inside the coffin through gaps, corners, and even directly penetrating it.

Inside the coffin.

As soon as Wang Yu's spiritual threads entered, it was as if he had stepped from the height of summer into a freezer. A chilling coldness ran from head to toe, even freezing his spiritual sense.

Now, Wang Yu was even more curious.

While pondering, he took out the Feng Shui Plate. The Ancestral Water Decree emitted a hazy blue light, and with the enhancement of the Ancestral Decree, Wang Yu's Feng Shui skills were greatly enhanced.

With his golden eyes, he could see through the obstructions of buildings, and things related to feng shui patterns radiated a different kind of spiritual light in his eyes, as his gaze swept to the bottom.

Wang Yu was shocked for a moment.

The thick ice crystal channels converged from all directions, and the dense Yin energy was comparable to the small world of the Heavenly Yin Pool.

All of it was poured into the coffin, including a transparent power that was clearly beneficial to the divine consciousness, which traced its source through those secret channels.

Wang Yu discovered that the source of Yin spiritual power came from various places in Dongjijing. The original Tianyin Pool was one of the largest providers, but unfortunately, he took it away, leaving the pipeline empty and almost abandoned.

The source of the transparent power was the houses in the inner and outer cities, where the ancient corpses still contained remnants of soul power after Dongjijing was buried underground.

The endless Yin energy nourished and nurtured these ancient corpses.

Having existed for so many years, these ancient corpses should be incredibly powerful. It is precisely because of the arrangements made by the Eastern Palace that these ancient corpses have always been weak.

Except for a few special individuals.

Every wisp of soul power that is generated is sent to the coffin.

Naturally, they're incredibly weak!

"Nurtured by the soul power of millions of ancient corpses for so many years, and with an almost inexhaustible supply of Yin spiritual energy, even a pig would have been transformed into an incredibly terrifying monster."

Muttering to himself, Wang Yu suddenly felt a chill run down his spine, sensing that he was in deep trouble.

He took the Heavenly Yin Pool with him, and the ancient corpses in the inner and outer cities were killed and captured on a large scale by the intruding cultivators. The more powerful fourth-order three-eyed corpse infants were all captured.

The power transmitted through these pipelines becomes extremely weak.

Regardless of the strategist's purpose, once the strategizing methods become meaningless, there will inevitably be a backup plan that directly triggers the next stage.

Looking around, still hesitant about whether to open the coffin.

A beam of starlight suddenly descended from the sky, and the dome, which had been perfectly normal before, revealed a completely different appearance. Wang Yu looked up and was astonished to discover the full extent of the strange feng shui arrangement of this place.

"The Celestial Star and Earthly Yin Resurrection Soul Formation?"

The layout arranged by feng shui techniques is essentially a simple formation, but it requires precise control over the timing, location, and orientation, with deviations not exceeding half a finger's width.

Some extraordinary formations can only be arranged during specific celestial events.

The so-called "Heavenly Star Earthly Yin Resurrection Formation" originates from the second Earthly Bureau, named the "Hou Tu Rebirth Formation," which has been researched and improved by Feng Shui masters.

The power of Houtu, which bears the earth, is replaced by celestial stars and earthly yin. Both of these strange formations have the effect of resurrection, but the artificial version can only achieve the return of the soul.

Ultimately, it also involves the path of possession and rebirth.

After his initial surprise, Wang Yu quickly regained his confidence, fearing that those powers might have nurtured a monster that only a Nascent Soul cultivator could deal with.

If it's used for resurrection, then it's nothing to fear.

"It seems that the one lying inside must be the Crown Prince of the Immortal Dynasty."

It's not entirely wrong to place your hopes on the Crown Prince, even if he was suppressed by the Emperor during his lifetime, he's guaranteed to have at least a Nascent Soul cultivation level.

Achieving the Nascent Soul stage using the remaining resources of the Immortal Dynasty should not be difficult.

It's too late to revive him now, and there might be other unforeseen circumstances.

After assessing the situation clearly.

Wang Yu kicked out suddenly, his toe striking the corner of the coffin, which blew the entire top cover off.

In an instant.

The surging, pure Yin spiritual energy transformed into a pillar of light, directly shattering the dome of the East Palace. The dark gray pillar of light even went further, breaking through the restrictions of the East Palace.

Amidst the turbulent energy tides, the faint wails of countless wronged souls could be heard, followed closely by a storm of soul power.

Wang Yu had no choice but to retreat several steps. He temporarily constructed a semi-circular spiritual shield in front of him with his demonic energy. Even with his divine sense and the Taiyin Nether Eyes used simultaneously, he was still unable to see through the energy tide that had accumulated over 100,000 years.

Opening the coffin is an ominous sign!

Literally speaking, things have developed in a way that has once again exceeded Wang Yu's expectations, because what appeared inside was a plump female corpse, completely naked.

The woman's face was stunningly beautiful, surpassing all the women Wang Yu had ever seen in his life. Even Xiao Chan'er seemed to pale in comparison.

Lifeless, withered white hair drifted by.

Aurora was already emanating from Wang Yu's body, indicating he was ready to escape at any moment. He had only been separated from the Proud Sun Demon for a short time, and the Demon had definitely not yet entered the Longevity Medicine Treasury.

If we run there now, there's still a chance to save them.

Within the terrifying chilling currents of the Yin spirits, the aura emanating from the female corpse subtly surpassed the limits of the Nascent Soul stage.

As the female corpse opened her eyes, the pure white eyeballs without pupils gave them an even more eerie appearance, and her full lips opened and closed... as if she were muttering, or as if she were clinging to some kind of obsession.

"My husband~~~"

Wang Yu broke out in a cold sweat, knowing very well that the other party was not calling him. There was no reason for the Crown Prince not to give him such a precious chance to return to life.

But given the result, Wang Yu suspected that the female corpse might be the Crown Princess, or some other beloved person, either way.

His steps slowly retreated, and more barrier-breaking talismans appeared in Wang Yu's left hand behind his back, his desire to escape had reached its peak.

The next moment.

All the strange phenomena vanished at once, and pupils appeared in those pure white eyes. Suddenly, the surrounding curtains flew in, covering that alluring, snow-white body.

The woman sighed sadly and looked at Wang Yu.

What year is it tonight?

"About 100,000 years after the fall of the Immortal Dynasty, the exact time is no longer known."

Wang Yu also had doubts when he responded.

The resurrection ritual has both advantages and disadvantages. The female corpse woke up too late, and the feng shui magic was no longer effective; she could not survive.

If there is a chance of resurrection within a thousand years of death.

But nearly 100,000 years have passed, and even a stone would have turned to dust by then. Therefore, the female corpse did not regain consciousness immediately, and her soul was nourished and did not suffer much damage.

But the physical body had already completely perished, and the moment he regained consciousness, the decay of his soul also began, as the great power of time was applied to him.

She had to relive those lost 100,000 years.

Even a Nascent Soul cultivator should die by now.

Upon hearing that so much time had passed, the female corpse indeed seemed to daze for a moment.

"You said... you would stay with me forever, is this the forever you chose?"

The female corpse reached into the coffin and took something out.

It was a bone whistle. He rubbed it against his cheek with great care, then put it in his mouth and blew it.

At the same time.

In an imperial mausoleum of unknown location, in the tomb of the Crown Prince of the Immortal Dynasty, who was buried as the heir apparent, an object shimmering with spiritual light shot into the sky and quickly disappeared into the heavens.

The female corpse, or rather the Crown Princess, then turned her attention to the cautious Wang Yu.

"I am not a murderer, so you can rest assured."

"Senior is too kind. I rose from humble beginnings and have long been accustomed to being cautious and meticulous. I can't change it."

"You speak just like your fathers."

Wang Yu hesitated, his lips trembling as he tried to speak, but he couldn't utter a word. However, his curiosity about history soon overcame his caution.

"I wonder if you could tell me the truth about the fall of the Immortal Dynasty? The cultivation world is now working towards the same goal."

The Crown Princess had no reason to hide it; from the moment she was taken out of her coffin, her life had already begun its countdown.

Since Wang Yu asked, she answered.

Upon seeing the other party speak so readily, Wang Yu quickly used the Six Senses Concealment Technique to guard against eavesdroppers and observers from outside the Ice Prison Realm.

The Crown Princess had no objection and said wistfully.

"At that time, the Sword Master and the Soul Master were bewitched by the Ancient Demon of Slaughter. In their later years, they went into a state of madness and used killing as a way to sacrifice to the Ancient Demon, which allowed the Demon of Slaughter to break free."

"Are they Asuras and Rakshasa?"

"Yes, it seems you know quite a bit about the Immortal Dynasty."

"Not much, just this little bit."

Seeing this, the Crown Princess continued.

"After the demon's physical body was freed, it began to follow its instincts and began to wreak havoc in all directions. At that time, Venerable Futu of the Buddhist sect wanted to convert it, so he secretly gathered several Buddhist venerables."

"At a time when the Celestial Dynasty was not yet certain of its victory, it faced the Demon Slayer head-on... and the outcome was as expected."

"Complete annihilation?"

Wang Yu frowned. This Buddhist master seemed to have some intellectual issues. Having reached this level, he should have some knowledge of the origins of the ancient demons.

How could you be so reckless?

As if she could see through his thoughts, the Crown Princess sighed.

"The Buddhist sect is actually confident. The Prajna Heart Sutra passed down in their sect can cultivate an extremely high spiritual realm, which is specifically designed to suppress the erosion of the killing intent of demons."

"After the Ice Prison Realm was modified by the rules of the immortals of the upper realm, the power that the ancient demon's physical body can exert cannot exceed the Nascent Soul stage, unless an apostle corrupted by the demon uses a secret method to help the ancient demon break the rules."

The answer is self-evident.

The Asuras and Rakshasa used their own blood sacrifices to increase their demon-slaying power, which in turn corrupted the Buddhist venerables, and from then on, the situation became uncontrollable.

The ancient immortal dynasty was able to honor Buddhism as its state religion because it possessed many Venerable-level combatants. However, it was suddenly corrupted by demons, causing Buddhism to rapidly fall into an abyss from top to bottom.

They turned against the Immortal Dynasty in the final battle between the Immortal Dynasty and the Demon Slayer.

This severely damaged the dynasty's vitality, leading to a long and protracted war. During this time, a second ancient demon, "Moon," appeared, becoming the final straw that broke the immortal dynasty's back.

After a complete defeat, living beings faced the desperate situation of being slaughtered.

Until the immortals from the upper realm descended to save the world, and the story reached its most crucial point.

The Crown Princess's expression was filled with resentment and sorrow.

"The immortal swallowed the fire spirit to save the world, and sentenced the entire lineage of the Immortal Emperor to be executed for the crime of negligence in guarding the palace. After my body and soul were severed, I was saved by my husband and barely kept on my breath."

"Who would have thought that the fire spirit vein that devoured the spirit would be punished by heaven? In order to save himself, the immortal used a demonic secret method, which almost wiped out the cultivation world at that time. He used a huge amount of life essence and pure spiritual energy to recover from his injuries, but in the end he still failed."

"I watched him vanish into thin air over Dongji Capital!"

As the story came to a close, Wang Yu keenly sensed the key point.

"Senior, are you saying that the first immortal to save the world in history ultimately perished in Dongjijing?"

"We'll talk about leaving behind the things later."

The words had barely left his mouth.

A streak of light flashed across the sky and landed in the Crown Princess's hand, she explained.

"After this person died, all his belongings were placed in my husband's tomb. What came in response to the Bone Whistle was a supreme treasure of the Human Emperor."

"If you can find the Crown Prince's tomb in the future, you will naturally obtain the immortal's treasure. I'm giving this to you, young brother, hoping you can do me a favor."

The so-called Human Emperor's Treasure is actually a coiled dragon ring. Its quality is beyond doubt; it is a fifth-order Nascent Soul spiritual treasure, and a superior one at that!

The moment one receives the treasure, it signifies taking on the next chapter of cause and effect.

"That's what the Crown Princess said."

"This is the Blood Feud Source Pearl. I demand that you swear by your Dao Heart to annihilate every living being in the Ice Prison Realm that can make this pearl glow!"

Wang Yu had no idea who her enemy was.

But he clearly had no leverage to refuse. After a brief silence, he made a vow of Dao and signed a contract to guarantee it.

He obtained a Divine Transformation Treasure and a Blood Bead.

The Crown Princess's physical body began to dissipate, returning to the world as it turned to dust, with tears seemingly glistening in the corners of her eyes.

He murmured.

"My husband, Ruoshui has come to see you."

After a few breaths, the Eastern Palace returned to silence.

Wang Yu scratched his chin, lost in thought. The trip to the Eastern Palace was unexpectedly quick; everything was resolved on the first day, although he had taken on another "task".

But the reward had already been received in advance, and there was no requirement to search for anything; it was simply a matter of killing whatever was encountered, which was relatively simple.

"The Emperor's most precious treasure..."

Looking at the ring in my hand, as a spiritual treasure, this object possesses abundant spirituality, like a vibrant child of a few years old.

Touch it with your divine sense, and the demonic essence will be refined.

Without any resistance along the way, Wang Yu sensed the true effect of the Panlong Ring, and an idea quickly popped into his mind.
