Chapter 210: The Past of the True Immortal
Xiao Heng rubbed his eyes and looked around dazedly.
The eerie atmosphere coming from all around made him feel uncomfortable instinctively.
In the distance, five extremely eye-catching strange white pillars stood crookedly, reaching into the sky.
Xiao Heng looked down at his feet and saw the ground was also made of the same white material.
"here it is……"
Xiao Heng was a little confused.
He remembered that he should be on some uninhabited island, right?
Could it be that I am dreaming?
Xiao Heng pinched himself subconsciously.
"pain!"
The intense pain made Xiao Heng wake up immediately.
"Not a dream?"
Xiao Heng suddenly became frightened.
He shuddered and looked around.
In the distance is the endless void of darkness, filled with an ancient atmosphere.
The ground under your feet and the five white pillars in the distance are connected as one.
Floating alone in this space.
Xiao Heng suddenly felt that this place looked familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere.
After looking carefully for a while, a picture suddenly flashed through his mind.
The more details you look at, the more similar they become.
Xiao Heng was so frightened that he fell to the ground, trembling all over.
"Is this... the white bone jade hand?"
Such a strange thing was beyond Xiao Heng's understanding.
Fear instantly took over his mind, causing him to subconsciously curl up into a ball, like an ostrich, burying his head in his arms.
But after all, a newborn calf is not afraid of a tiger.
After a long time, there was no other movement in this space.
Xiao Heng's curiosity gradually overwhelmed his fear.
He climbed up and carefully explored the space.
The metacarpal area where we are currently is relatively open, so there is no need to worry about slipping and falling into the endless void.
There are mostly ruins here, as if a very fierce battle had taken place there, destroying all the buildings.
After walking through the ruins for a while, something caught Xiao Heng's attention.
A broken sword stuck straight into the ground.
The sword was covered with dark red blood.
But when Xiao Heng walked in, he found that the long sword first pierced a skull and then nailed it to the ground.
"I don't know how long this place has existed. This sword has been preserved for so long and is not damaged at all. It must be an incredible treasure, right?" Xiao Heng thought so and slowly walked forward.
He held the sword with both hands and pulled it hard.
Pull out the sword.
However, before the happy Xiao Heng had time to look at the treasure he had just obtained, the ground beneath his feet suddenly shook violently.
"Despicable Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance!"
The skull that was pierced by the sword actually let out a roar and soared into the sky.
Xiao Heng was so frightened by this scene that he fell to the ground.
The long sword in his hand fell to the ground with a clang.
It seemed that the sound attracted the skull's attention, and a dark light shot out from its dark eyes and hit the sword directly.
"Bang!"
The sword turned into ashes in an explosion.
At the moment the light was emitted, Xiao Heng subconsciously jumped and avoided the explosion.
But I was also shocked and broke out in a cold sweat.
"Senior, spare me! Senior, spare me!" Xiao Heng knelt on the ground and kowtowed. He kowtowed and shouted, staring at the skull, ready to run away if the situation got bad.
It seemed that Xiao Heng's shouting had worked.
The skull's voice became a little confused: "Huh? Not the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance? Where did this little kid come from?"
The skull then flew high into the sky and took a tour.
After a while, he returned to where he was, and said with a sense of loss, "It turned out that so much time had passed..."
Xiao Heng breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the skull didn't seem to have any hostility.
He asked tentatively: "Senior, where is this? Can you let me go back?"
The skull sneered: "You are really a strange kid. Since you can come here, you don't know where this is? And you come to ask me?"
Xiao Heng said innocently: "Senior, I'm not lying. I really don't know where this is!"
"snort!"
The skull was full of disbelief. It flew closer quickly and turned several times.
He looked at her carefully with his dark eye sockets.
"Huh? There are no signs of rituals. How did you get in?" After a long time, as if discovering something, the skull said in doubt.
"Ah?" Xiao Heng was confused by this question.
But soon, he realized: "Hand bone! I have a hand bone exactly like the one here!"
"Senior, this is inside the hand bone, right?"
"Hand bones?"
The head suddenly realized: "So this is how it is."
"Little kid, you are not from the Xuanhuang Realm, right?" asked the skull.
"Xuanhuang Realm? What is that?" Xiao Heng was a little confused.
"Haha, it's what we usually call the world of immortal cultivation. Little kid, are there any legends of immortal cultivators in the world you live in?"
Xiao Heng had a strange look on his face. After thinking for a while, he confessed honestly, "To be honest, Senior. The place I was originally from was called Dali Dynasty. However, not long ago, I and a few people from my hometown were brought to the world of immortal cultivation by a senior immortal cultivator."
"What?" The head seemed a little shocked, and asked anxiously: "Your real body is in the immortal world right now? Are there any immortal cultivators from the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance around you?"
Xiao Heng shook his head: "The immortal cultivator who took us away from Dali seemed to have encountered a cultivator from the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance. He said he had committed some crime of treason, and then the two sides started fighting. We took the opportunity to escape to a deserted island."
"Although that senior cultivator found us later, he unfortunately died."
"Humph, the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance has done so many evil things. They only helped mortals return to the world of immortals, but they actually accused them of being traitors. They really can find a pretext to accuse someone of a crime!" The Skull said with great anger and disdain.
"Little kid, you must remember not to let the monks of the Ten Thousand Immortals League find the white jade hand bone on your body."
"Otherwise, your life will be in danger!"
The skull admonished.
"How could this happen?" Xiao Heng widened his eyes.
"This involves the feud between a great being and the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance." The Skull sighed, and then told Xiao Heng a story from the past.
A long, long time ago, a true immortal descended into the Xuanhuang Realm.
He is kind and benevolent, and cares about all living beings in the world.
He knew the difficulty of spiritual practice and the hardship of cultivating immortals, so he spared no effort to explain and teach the principles of spiritual practice to immortal cultivators all over the world.
Many practitioners benefited from his kindness and their strength improved by leaps and bounds.
As a result, the world of immortal cultivation ushered in a period of great prosperity.
However, when the time that the true immortal has stayed in the lower world has reached its limit and is about to return to the fairyland.
But they were attacked by a group of immortal cultivators.
This group of people have high skills and are fearless of death.
The passage connecting the Immortal Realm and the Xuanhuang Realm was directly destroyed, leaving the True Immortals with nowhere to escape.
Under the endless rounds of consumption, the True Immortal's injuries became more and more serious.
In the end, he still fell in the Xuanhuang Realm.
Although the true immortal died, his obsession remained.
Before his death, he took one last look at the Xuanhuang Realm.
He memorized all the scenes and things in the world. After that, the immortal's obsession lasted for a long time, and after thousands of years of evolution, it formed a huge world of consciousness.
Falling Immortal World.
The group of cultivators that attacked the True Immortals back then was the original Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance.
…
This story contained so much information that it took Xiao Heng a long time to digest it.
"Senior, why does the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance want to attack the True Immortals?" Xiao Heng asked.
"Why? Of course it's for the sake of profit! True immortals come from the upper realms, and they have countless immortal arts and artifacts on them."
"Getting any one of them is a great fortune."
"Take the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance's foundation, the Mysterious Heavenly Mirror, for example. It was one of the immortal artifacts that the True Immortals carried with them in the past."
“It has infinite uses.”
The Skull explained, his tone filled with resentment towards the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance.
Afterwards, he introduced the mysteries of the Tianxuan Mirror to Xiao Heng.
Xiao Heng had never seen such a treasure before, and his eyes lit up.
Afterwards, he could not help but say fiercely: "The Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance is so despicable!"
After a while, Xiao Heng asked again: "Who are you, Senior? How did you become like this?"
The skull was silent for a long time, as if lost in memories.
Then he slowly said: "Not all immortal cultivators are as crazy as the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance back then."
"There are also many cultivators who have received the grace of the True Immortals and are extremely grateful and respectful to them."
"After hearing the news that the True Immortal was ambushed by the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance, they were heartbroken and vowed to avenge the True Immortal."
"They spontaneously formed the [Resurrection of Immortals] organization to fight against the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance."
"It's a pity that the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance is too powerful and Fu Xian is far from being able to catch up."
"After thousands of years of extermination, the number of immortals who have revived has become smaller and smaller. Now, I am the only one left alive in this world."
The words of the skull contain an endless sense of tragedy.
Xiao Heng, who had a strong sense of justice, couldn't help but be infected by it and his eyes turned slightly red.
"Senior..." He wanted to say something comforting, but was interrupted by the skull.
"Haha, I don't need a little kid like you to pity me!"
"Before, I was left with only my consciousness, surviving in the cracks of this Fallen Immortal Realm. There is no one left to succeed me in my restoration."
"I hope God will not allow me to [restore my immortality] and send you to me!" A faint light shot out from the eye sockets of the skull, covering Xiao Heng.
"You are a rare genius in cultivation that is rarely seen in a thousand years. It would be great for you to join us [Resurrection of Immortality] and take over the banner of fighting against the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance!"
As he spoke, Xiao Heng noticed a storage ring appear in his hand.
At the same time, a lot of information suddenly appeared in my mind.
Most of them are common sense required for practice, and even include a skill called [Dinghai Divine Sword].
The skull retracted the dim light and said slowly: "I have taught you all the knowledge from the early stage of cultivation. It is enough for you to cultivate safely to the Golden Core Stage."
"But remember, you must be careful to hide yourself and not expose yourself. The Immortal Alliance's Immortal Immortal has unfathomable cultivation. Thousands of years have passed, and his strength is probably not inferior to that of the True Immortal back then."
Xiao Heng's face became serious. But then he asked awkwardly: "Senior, I'm so young and alone, and you want me to fight against the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance. Isn't it a bit..."
The skull shouted angrily, "Stupid! You can recruit people! If you meet any companions with good talents, you can invite them to join us [Fuxian]. We Fuxian have been silent for thousands of years, and it is time for fresh blood to join us."
"Just make sure the other party is someone you can trust, and there are no spies mixed in with the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance."
Xiao Heng was a little surprised when he heard this and said, "That's great!"
The skull continued, "I have consumed too much energy in teaching you my skills. I am about to fall into a deep sleep."
"For some time to come, the matter of [Resurrection of the Immortal] will be handed over to you."
"If there is a new member joining, take him to the middle finger bone."
"There is an altar there, which is our [Resurrection of Immortality]'s rare treasure. Through prayer, you can obtain skills and items."
"But the altar has a spirit, and it will only respond to reasonable requests. You'll know the details when you use it."
The sound of the bones became weaker and weaker, but they continued to give some precautions.
"Senior, how long will you sleep before you wake up?" Xiao Heng asked with concern.
“Haha, that’s hard to say. I was originally a dead person, but I am only able to survive by relying on a trace of obsession.”
"It's possible that he will wake up in a year or two, or he may never wake up again."
"However, if you are willing and have the ability in the future, you can help me collect the foundation-building artifacts that are extracted from the dead monks. These things have lost their wonders and are useless to others. But they can help me recover."
The skull said slowly.
Xiao Heng nodded repeatedly and kept it in mind.
"Remember, there is one more thing. If you sense that my breath has completely disappeared, it means that this place is likely to have been exposed. Destroy the hand bones immediately and never come here again." The skull warned again.
"Okay, that's it." The skull seemed to have become too weak to support itself any longer.
"Senior!" When the skull was about to fall into a deep sleep, Xiao Heng hesitated for a moment, but still asked the question in his mind.
"You haven't told me your name yet?"
"...You are not worthy of knowing my name yet. When you can really shoulder the heavy responsibility of resurrecting the immortal, you will know it."
After saying this, the skull became illusory and disappeared into the darkness.
"Senior? Senior?" Xiao Heng called out a few times, but no one answered.
With a regretful sigh and looking at the empty area around him, Xiao Heng took out a silver necklace from his storage ring.
Following the method taught by the predecessor, the heart was moved and the silver necklace emitted a burst of light.
Then Xiao Heng's eyes went dark, and a moment later, he was back in the flying boat on the deserted island.
The companions around were still sleeping soundly, and everything that just happened seemed like a dream.
But there was an extra ring in her hand and a necklace hanging on her chest.
Reminding Xiao Heng that this was not a dream.
The young Xiao Heng bore a burden that he shouldn't have to bear at such a young age.
Exhausted mentally and physically, he soon fell into a deep sleep.
Early the next morning, he woke up earlier than everyone else.
He came to the beach alone, recalled the skills taught by Senior Skull, closed his eyes, sensed the spiritual energy around him, and began to practice quietly.
Half a day later, Ye Feipeng, who woke up and couldn't find any trace of Xiao Heng, sensed the fluctuation of spiritual energy at the seaside and walked over.
He looked at Xiao Heng who was meditating with his eyes closed, and didn't notice anything at first.
When he got closer, Xiao Heng suddenly opened his eyes, and a light blue water sword, which was faintly taking shape, suddenly appeared.
The guard stood in front of Xiao Heng, with the sword pointing directly at Ye Feipeng, and was about to launch a fatal attack.
Ye Feipeng suddenly staggered and fell to the ground as if he had seen a ghost.
He pointed at Xiao Heng with his finger, his body trembling, and he couldn't utter a word for a long time.
There will be another chapter later.
