Chapter 146: The Immortal Taoist in the Holy Cliff
Chapter 146: The Immortal Taoist in the Holy Cliff
The Holy Cliff is located at the junction of the Central Region and the Northern Region of the Eastern Wasteland, and its location is extremely special.
But in the eyes of the world, this is an ominous place. Although it is not a life forbidden zone, it is no less dangerous than the five major life forbidden zones in the Eastern Wilderness today.
According to legend, a powerful man once died here, and his blood shed on the holy cliff. A more specific statement is that this is the place where a great holy body of the past fell. That holy body died here in his later years, with his blood staining the dry cliff.
Such a legend undoubtedly shocked too many adventurers. After all, the Great Saint Body is an almighty being comparable to the ancient emperors and can compete with those who have achieved enlightenment, but it ended up with such a fate.
How can such a thing not make people feel scared?
But today, the Holy Cliff, where no one had ever dared to go deep, welcomed a visitor.
I saw a golden light flashing across the sky, just like the Emperor of Heaven traveling.
The golden light stretched out and turned into a road, spreading out in the void. It ignored the dangers in the Holy Cliff and went deep into it.
On the golden avenue, there was a young man in a golden robe who exuded an imperial aura and wore an imperial crown. It was Xuan Hui!
At this moment, Xuan Hui looked at the Holy Cliff in front of him and felt a sigh in his heart.
The so-called Holy Cliff is clearly a section of the Immortal Mountain, cut off!
That’s right, the so-called Holy Cliff, although the name sounds like a cliff, but in fact, it is extremely magnificent. It is a real mountain with majestic and powerful momentum, stretching endlessly above the earth.
Xuan Hui took a glance and saw more than fifty ancient mountains as black as ink standing together. They were majestic and even the lush ancient trees on them could not conceal their true colors.
Therefore, anyone who sees the true appearance of the Holy Cliff will, like Xuan Hui, instantly think of the Immortal Mountain, which is also pitch black.
In fact, this is indeed the origin of Shengya.
In the ancient times, during the hundreds of thousands of years when the nine holy bodies were born one after another, there was a great holy body in the middle. It was extremely powerful and dominated the world. It suppressed all unrest and darkness, and was respected by all the heavens.
At that time, the main opponent of this great holy body was the Immortal Mountain, which was still a forbidden zone for life.
During that period of time, the Great Holy Body had been in long-term confrontation with the forbidden area of the Immortal Mountain and had fought against them several times. The Holy Cliff before him was the trophy of one of his great battles.
It’s a pity that God has unpredictable circumstances, and people have misfortunes and misfortunes.
When this great holy body was growing old and his body was slowly weakening, an accident occurred – the Immortal Taoist who was still living in the Immortal Mountain at that time and stirring up disputes in various forbidden areas and unrest in the human world took action and launched a sneak attack at a critical time point, causing the great holy body to die suddenly.
At this point, the holy land that should have been sacred and peaceful turned into a disaster land, and the holy cliff that symbolized the glory of the holy body lineage became the bloody place of that generation of great holy bodies.
A pity, sigh.
Of course, God has his own way and no one can escape punishment.
The fate of the Holy Body lineage is truly beyond the imagination of ordinary people. Not long after, another great Holy Body appeared, who was the most valiant among the nine Holy Bodies.
He is said to be brave, not because of his cultivation or battle record, but because of his special achievement –
This holy body married a woman who was born with a Taoist fetus. Later, that woman became the emperor of that life, the most powerful person of that era.
This woman was revered as the “Western Queen” by later generations.
Later, the Western Emperor and the Great Saint Body had a son, the only innate Saint Body Taoist fetus in ancient times, named Wu Shi. Wu Shi took the initiative to take over the past cause and effect of the Saint Body lineage. After the Immortal Queen launched the East Wasteland turmoil, he suppressed the woman and repelled Ning Fei, and also led out the Immortal Taoist who lived in the Immortal Mountain.
In the end, the Immortal Taoist was completely defeated in one battle, and his body and soul were forcibly dismembered and separated, and sealed on the Holy Cliff.
For this purpose, the Wu Shi Emperor specially prepared the List of Gods to suppress the Immortal Taoist.
Now, the Immortal Mountain camp has changed its leader, and the Immortal Mountain side led by Xuan Hui is about to go to war with the Underworld and the Immortal Emperor.
Xuanhui came to the Holy Cliff naturally to study the Immortal Taoist and to find out some weaknesses of the Immortal Emperor so that he could launch a targeted attack.
The Immortal Taoist is the incarnation of the Immortal Emperor’s god. He was baptized by the Immortal Emperor’s immortal blood and practiced the latter’s secret scriptures and techniques. The connection between the two is indeed very close.
Xuan Hui felt that it was very possible to achieve the goal of targeting the Immortal Emperor by studying the Immortal Taoist.
……
Almost in the blink of an eye, Xuan Hui had landed deep in the Holy Cliff.
This is completely different from the treatment Ye Fan will receive in the future when he enters the Holy Cliff as a weak child. Now Xuan Hui is completely undisguised, and his aura is so strong that it is simply frightening. Naturally, the Immortal Taoist does not dare to appear at this moment and deceive him.
However, Xuanhui naturally doesn’t care about these little things. If Shan doesn’t come to find me, the worst that can happen is that I will go find Shan.
With this mentality, Xuan Hui came to the top of the Holy Cliff and saw an ancient coffin, which was a hundred feet long and covered with green hair. It looked extremely strange and terrifying.
And above the ancient sarcophagus, there is a roll of golden gods’ list hanging high, which is extremely dazzling and sacred. It is the ancient holy object refined by the Wu Shi Great Emperor, the List of Gods.
At this moment, Xuan Hui looked up and vaguely saw the shadow of a huge hand pressing down, suppressing the dark mountain and sarcophagus in front of him.
Upon seeing this, Xuan Hui made a hand gesture and chanted a mantra softly. However, within just a few breaths, the golden light emitted by the List of Conferred Gods was restrained, as if it had stopped moving, and it just floated quietly in the void.
At the same time, Xuan Hui walked closer to the sarcophagus and looked at it in front of him.
However, a stick of incense passed quickly, but there was no reaction in the sarcophagus, as if there was no living person in it.
In response, Xuan Hui stretched out his right hand, clenched his fist, and knocked on the wall of the sarcophagus with the back of his hand.
“Immortal Taoist, why don’t you come out?”
“Today, since you can’t escape and you can’t be my opponent, why don’t you surrender obediently? This will save both you and me trouble.”
After saying that, Xuan Hui waited for a moment. This time, there was still deathly silence in the sarcophagus, with no response at all. It was obvious that the Immortal Taoist was planning to pretend to be dead to the end.
This made Xuan Hui feel somewhat helpless. As expected, the lineage of the Immortal Emperor was incompatible with him and could not cooperate with him at all.
“Well, if you don’t want to, I’ll just catch you. It’s always the same.”
