Chapter 1506: Bizarre Immortal Art

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

On the black lake, those white-robed immortal masters who were meditating were all unmoved. They turned a deaf ear to Xu Qing’s arrival and words.

The white Immortal Arts Hall was completely silent, giving no response as well.

Xu Qing held the Ruler’s token and stood in the air. After waiting for thirty breaths of time, he calmly spoke again.

“Before the Ruler was summoned by the Demon Feather Great Emperor, he reminded me three times that it was inconvenient for him to come personally to avoid hurting the harmony. Thus, he sent me to observe the immortal art. He will later view it through my memory.”

“If the Immortal Arts Hall doesn’t lend it, I can only tell it to the Ruler. At that time, the Ruler will come personally.”

Xu Qing’s voice was deep. After he finished speaking, he looked at the white Immortal Arts Hall in front of him.

He knew that this wasn’t a place he could barge into casually. If bringing out Lu Lingzi’s name didn’t work, he could only think of other methods.

After all, he was borrowing the tiger’s skin to do things this time.

Lu Lingzi’s attitude was displayed clearly on the Seventh Ruler Mountain. He had gained the initiative and was finally summoned by the Great Emperor.

The attitude revealed by this series of events allowed the experts of the West Demon Feather to have a better understanding of this new Ruler.

A long time later, the gate of the Immortal Arts Hall slowly opened. A man and a woman walked out, both dressed in white.

The woman was behind, looking elegant and beautiful, while the man was in front, appearing handsome and striking.

The moment they appeared, all the immortal masters who were comprehending opened their eyes and lowered their heads slightly to show their respect.

Xu Qing also looked over.

Under his gaze, the youth who walked out of the Immortal Arts Hall raised his head and looked at Xu Qing, speaking calmly.

“Immortal arts can only be comprehended by an immortal master. However, since you have the Ruler’s order, my West Demon Feather Immortal Arts Hall can give you a qualification.”

“However, those who seek immortal arts have to go through the Five Tribulations of Life and Death, during which their survival is of no concern.”

Here, at the Immortal Shelter Lake, find any spot and submerge yourself. The five tribulations will befall you, equivalent to observing the art.”

After saying that, the youth coldly looked at Xu Qing.

Xu Qing pondered as he looked at the Immortal Shelter Lake below.

“Why? You don’t dare?”

Outside the Immortal Arts Hall, the youth calmly spoke.

Xu Qing was unmoved and continued to observe. A while later, he headed straight down. After he landed on the surface of the lake, he directly sank into it and disappeared.

As he disappeared, the gazes of all the immortal masters who were comprehending on the surface of the lake flickered. They looked at the place where Xu Qing had sunk. Some shook their heads and some sneered.

“This Xue Chenzi really has a death wish.”

“There are countless Five Tribulation losers buried in the Immortal Shelter Lake. Even if he is lucky enough to survive, it’s impossible for him to succeed.” After everyone’s gaze swept over, they retracted their gazes and stopped paying attention.

Even though Xue Chenzi was famous during this time, to them, it was not as important as comprehending an immortal art.

As for the youth standing outside the Immortal Arts Hall, the corners of his mouth curled into a cold smile. However, the woman behind him revealed a hint of worry.

“Senior Brother, Master hasn’t returned from his travels, and the new Ruler of the East Demon Feather is in the limelight. Moreover, Xue Chenzi is not an ordinary person. In the past half a month, he has become quite famous.”

“You could have just rejected him according to the rules. Why do you have to lure him into a situation where he has a slim chance of survival?”

“The Five Dogs Heaven World is hidden in the Immortal Shelter Lake. Intruders rarely survive, and even if they do, they ultimately fail to comprehend it. After all… to comprehend the Five Dogs Sheltering Immortal art requires a special ritual.”

The woman sighed softly.

When the youth heard this, his gaze was still cold.

“Before he entered, I already told him about the danger in front of so many witnesses. He was the one who wanted to go, I didn’t force him.”

“He has a death wish. It has nothing to do with me.”

With that, the youth flicked his sleeve and turned to enter the Immortal Arts Hall.

The woman looked at the surface of the lake and shook her head. She knew that it was meaningless to say anything more, so she didn’t speak anymore and returned to the Immortal Arts Hall.

At that moment, Xu Qing didn’t feel anything abnormal after entering the Immortal Shelter Lake.

Although the lake water was pitch-black, there were no anomalous substances inside. Instead, it had a sense of lightness, with only an obstacle to divine sense, making it difficult to perceive the entire lakebed with a single thought.

Xu Qing sensed it and spread out his divine sense, searching the surroundings bit by bit.

After fifteen minutes, Xu Qing’s eyes narrowed.

At this moment, when his divine sense was searching the bottom of the lake, he saw bones…

As he investigated, more and more skeletons appeared.

In the end, when Xu Qing searched the entire bottom of the lake, he saw a large number of bones, at least thousands of them.

There were men and women, old and young.

Their eyes were open, their skin pale, even their eyes were the same, and their hair was also white.

On their faces, there was a bizarre expression that was neither quite crying nor quite smiling.

Xu Qing also saw a huge rune that was imprinted at the bottom of the lake.

This rune was white and its range occupied more than half of the lakebed, emitting an ancient feeling. What Xu Qing paid the most attention to was that all the corpses were… on this white rune.

Xu Qing observed.

A long time later, he carefully approached.

While approaching it, his divine sense had already probed many times. After finding nothing, Xu Qing pondered. Ten breaths later, determination appeared in his eyes.

He directly stepped on the huge rune.

The instant he landed, Xu Qing’s mind trembled. He felt his mind continuously sinking. After that, his vision blurred. When everything became clear, he was no longer looking at the lakebed.

He was looking at the sky!

In the blue sky, white clouds filled the air. Under his feet, the ground couldn’t be seen. There was only a thousand-foot-thick white line that meandered into the distance…

It was like a strand of white hair that had been magnified countless times.

Xu Qing didn’t act rashly. He spread out his divine sense and observed the thick white line under his feet.

After using a wide perspective to check, Xu Qing immediately saw that this white line had formed a rune.

This rune was exactly the same as the rune at the bottom of the lake.

“Looks like this is the Five Tribulations that the youth mentioned. This person clearly has evil intentions. However… since I chose to come here, I won’t be afraid because of evil intentions.”

Xu Qing mumbled inwardly. He didn’t move forward immediately on this white line. Instead, the authority that belonged to the Six Thieves Delusions flashed in his eyes.

“People can’t live long because of the delusions of the Six Thieves. The eyes see wrong, the ears hear wrong, the nose smells wrong, the mouth tastes wrong, the body moves wrong, and the mind thinks wrong, ultimately unable to return to the true essence.”

The Dao mark circulated and the Six Thieves Immortal Art suddenly rose in Xu Qing’s body.

The threads of seven emotions and six desires spread out invisibly around Xu Qing.

“The six thieves and the five dogs were originally one…”

Xu Qing narrowed his eyes and walked forward on the white line. Through his six thieves authority, he sensed everything.

At the same time, the information about the Five Dogs Sheltering Immortal that Eldest Senior Brother had told him back then appeared in his mind.

“The Five Dogs are miserliness, greed, delusion, evil, and precipice.”

“Refusing to part with possessions is miserliness. Insatiable desire is greed. Creating false standards is delusion. Winning arguments through deceit is evil. Refusing to accept the truth and obstinately rejecting the three paths to liberation is the precipice.”

As for the Seven Kills and Eight Sins, Yue Dong and her junior sister didn’t understand either.”

“Simply put, this immortal art states… When the miserly dog enters, one loses treasures; when the greedy dog enters, one is bound; when the deluded dog enters, one falls into the cycle of life and death; when the evil dog enters, one falls into hell; when the precipice dog enters, one forever loses human form.”

As he pondered, he used his perception and moved forward.

However, as he walked, Xu Qing suddenly stopped in his tracks. The seven emotions and six desires threads in his surroundings were fluctuating intensely, as though they were blocking something. In fact, there were even concave bends.

However, there was nothing in front of him.

The next instant, the seven emotions and six desires threads returned to normal.

Xu Qing was vigilant and observed carefully. However, no matter what, he didn’t sense anything abnormal.

After confirming that there was nothing wrong, he frowned and continued forward.

However, after taking three steps, Xu Qing’s expression darkened.

“That’s not right.”

“It’s impossible for the seven emotions and six desires thread formed by the Six Thieves Delusions to act so abnormal for no reason. Then, where did a problem occur…”

Xu Qing frowned even more, but he found nothing even after thinking for a while.

However, an uneasy feeling continued to rise.

Hence, Xu Qing didn’t continue forward. Instead, he stayed where he was and recalled all his actions previously.

In the end, he discovered that the abnormality of the seven emotions and six desires threads seemed to have appeared after the information his Eldest Senior Brother had told him appeared in his mind.

Hence, he immediately recalled the memories that had surfaced earlier.

Xu Qing’s eyes narrowed.

“There seems to be something wrong with that memory…”

He faintly sensed that his memories earlier seemed a little abnormal but he couldn’t find the reason no matter what. Xu Qing didn’t hesitate at all and the Ming Fei’s eye in his body suddenly opened.

This eye could break through the void barrier!

The instant it opened, Xu Qing instantly sensed the source.

In his memory, Yue Dong somehow had a junior sister!

However, Yue Dong didn’t have a junior sister.

Lan Yao wasn’t Yue Dong’s junior sister either.

However, this junior sister’s figure hid from Xu Qing’s perception. It was as though she had fused into his memories.

It even penetrated all the scenes in his memory of Yue Dong.

For example, in the scene when Feng Lintao, Lan Yao, and Yue Dong first met Xu Qing, Yue Dong’s junior sister was beside those three people.

After that, when he and Eldest Senior Brother captured Yue Dong alive, they also captured her junior sister along with her.

However, because of his soul search, Yue Dong’s junior sister’s soul was destroyed.

This memory caused Xu Qing’s eyes to narrow.

He felt that this was indeed his memory, as though this was the truth.

However, in Ming Fei’s eye, this memory was external!

“Then who is this woman who appeared out of thin air in my memory?”

Xu Qing’s expression instantly darkened, especially when he discovered that

even though he could tell that something was wrong with this memory, he could only recognize it and couldn’t erase it. A cold glint flashed in his eyes and the divine authority of fate erupted in his body.

The carving knife pierced through fate and slashed fiercely at Yue Dong’s junior sister in that memory.

There was a cracking sound.

Yue Dong’s junior sister’s figure instantly shattered into pieces.

However, Xu Qing’s heart still sank.

This was because the moment Yue Dong’s junior sister’s figure was destroyed, that memory scene turned into a withered white hair, piercing through half of his memory.

In the memories that were penetrated, the white hair was merging and the number kept increasing and spreading.

This feeling was extremely bizarre and hard to describe.

It was as if a completed artwork had suddenly been altered, filled with countless strands of white hair.

Vaguely, a sentence from the Five Dogs Sheltering Immortal appeared in Xu Qing’s mind.

“Refusing to part with possessions is miserliness… When the miserly dog enters, one loses treasures.”

these white hair that appeared seemed to have opened a door in a sealed secret chamber.

This door was circular.

At that moment, it suddenly opened up, emitting a white light.

It was like a white eye.

Greedy dog had entered!
