Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil in the Cultivation World

Chapter 417: The Origin of the Ancient Calamity Tree of Eternal Life (2)


Swoosh!

With this thought, the black entity couldn't worry about anything else. Its form flashed, and it attempted to escape from here, causing ripples to appear in the surrounding void.

Undoubtedly, it had mastered the ability of instant teleportation, and not even the restriction array here could stop it.

"Trying to run? Dream on."

Jiang Fan's eyes gleamed with a hint of cold light. He was quite surprised, as it was his first time seeing an evil creature capable of withstanding the burning of the True Sun Fire, even if only partially, but it was still quite astonishing.

However, through fate's indication, he had long been aware of this.

He activated the power of the Primordial Talisman Pen.

Immediately, the Primordial Talisman Pen radiated a faint dark golden light, with the tip suffused with the terrifying Power of Sharpness, each strand of hair containing a terrifying kill intent and sharpness.

At this moment, the Primordial Talisman Pen completely locked onto the black entity's aura.

Boom~~

A terrifying golden light blasted out, tearing through everything at an unimaginable speed, arriving in front of the black entity in the blink of an eye, then effortlessly pierced through its body.

"Ahhh!!"

"Human, how dare you kill me."

"You're doomed, completely doomed, no one in heaven or earth can save you."

The black entity let out a shrill scream.

Instantly, its body crumbled inch by inch, completely disappearing from this world, seemingly leaving no trace behind.

"How... how could there be something strange on me?"

Daoist Yuanqing naturally saw the scene just now, his face turning ashen, cold sweat streaming down.

At this moment, he understood why the Child of Destiny would act against him.

It turned out they had long known about his anomaly.

If the other party hadn't noticed this, it might have doomed them.

But the other party, as expected of the Child of Destiny.

To even be able to perceive this was truly unimaginable.

If such an existence were present, perhaps they could really survive the apocalypse of the Void Realm.

"I didn't expect those guys to have secretly left a trap on me."

"Fortunately, young friend, you detected it in time, or else I would have caused a disaster."

"No wonder we from the Taixu Sect lost so miserably."

Daoist Yuanqing looked bitter.

He originally thought there was nothing wrong with him, but he didn't expect to have fallen into the enemy's trap.

Now he recalled the events of the Ancient Era.

It seemed that the Taixu Sect had long been calculated by the enemy, but he was unaware.

That war was doomed from the start.

"Senior."

"What happened in the Ancient Era, who is the real enemy?"

Jiang Fan asked.

He looked at Daoist Yuanqing, and now fate's indication did not warn him, which also meant that the calamity should have passed; the Daoist Yuanqing in front of him should be trustworthy.

Even if the other's memory was altered, at least some portion of it was genuine.

Since he was already caught in the scheme, he could not escape.

So, knowing who the enemy was beforehand would help him better respond.

"The enemy is not demons."

"Petty demons cannot destroy the Void Realm."

"The strangeness earlier affected my memory, making me say those things."

"Now that the strangeness was killed by you, my memory has partly restored."

"The calamity of the Ancient Era came from the Immortal Realm."

"The enemy is the Immortal Race."

Daoist Yuanqing said murderously.

Immortal Race?!

Upon hearing this, Jiang Fan's pupils contracted; he recalled the words left in the ruins of the Primordial Talisman Sect, seemingly related to the Longevity Tribulation—could it be greatly related to the Immortal Race?!

He felt that many of the mysteries of the Ancient Era were beginning to be unveiled.

"But the Immortal Race is taboo and cannot be mentioned in the outside world."

"Otherwise, it will surely be overheard by the strangeness."

"Then they'll surely come knocking."

"But here in the Taixu Hall, it's a space of its own, isolating all external karma."

"So I can reveal some things about the Immortal Race here."

Daoist Yuanqing took a deep breath and revealed that the true ancient enemy of the Void Realm was indeed the Immortal Race.

"The Immortal Race of the Immortal Realm? What are their origins?"

Jiang Fan squinted his eyes.

He sensed that the four words 'Immortal Race' seemed to carry the weight of a thousand pounds, containing the power of taboo.

Only within the Taixu Hall could he utter these words.

If spoken outside, it might bring calamity.

At this moment, all of his magical treasures were silent, listening to Daoist Yuanqing's words.

"I don't know much about the Immortal Race either."

"I only know a little, that they are a terrifying race born in the Immortal Realm."

"Born as a Longevity Species, gaining a long lifespan."

"It's said they were originally ordinary immortals."

"But they suddenly rose, gained terrifying power, then swept across the Immortal Realm, initiating an unprecedented war, causing numerous immortals to fall."

"In the end, this war also spread to the Mortal World, affected the Void Realm."

"And those strange entities are the servants of the Immortal Race."

Daoist Yuanqing explained.

A calamity from the Immortal Realm?!

Hearing this, Jiang Fan understood why the once-magnificent Void Realm faced apocalyptic disaster.

Indeed, the Void Realm was powerful in the Mortal World, almost unrivaled.

But compared to immortals from the Immortal Realm, what did it amount to?

If an immortal took action, no matter how many mortal cultivators there were, they would face certain death.

"But why would they target the Void Realm?"

"After all, it's said to be the Immortal Realm, the endpoint of all worlds, the abode of immortals."

"In terms of resources, it's countless times richer than the Mortal World."

"The immortals couldn't possibly be interested in the Mortal World."

Jiang Fan said.

"Normally, that's indeed the case."

"But we don't know their true purpose."

"We only know that the immortals from the Immortal Realm descended, bringing the Longevity Seed."

"Then planted this seed in the Void Realm, which grew into the Tree of Eternal Life."

"However, this tree from the Immortal Realm is terrifying, able to draw the world's source energy."

"Once this tree matures, the entire world will be completely destroyed."

"Billions of beings will turn to dust."

"To destroy this Tree of Eternal Life, we waged war against the Immortal Race."

Daoist Yuanqing sighed, feeling helpless.

If possible, they naturally didn't want to battle the immortals.

The problem was that they had come to their doorstep, intending to destroy the entire world.

So, no matter what race in the Void Realm, they couldn't allow this to happen.

"So the decline in the Spiritual Qi of the Void Realm is because of this Tree of Eternal Life?"

"Didn't you win that battle?"

Jiang Fan was shocked.

Now he understood why the Void Realm's standard kept declining, and the concentration of Spiritual Qi was rapidly dropping; it all stemmed from this Tree of Eternal Life.

The Longevity Tribulation likely not only represented the Immortal Race but also the Tree of Eternal Life.

And indeed, it was doomsday calamity.

If they couldn't stop the Tree of Eternal Life from continuing to grow, then this world was indeed on the brink of destruction.

This was only a matter of time.

"If we had won, how could we have vanished from the Void Realm?"

"We vanished precisely because we completely failed."

"However, those immortals who descended also didn't fare well; we killed some, and even severely injured the remaining enemies, forcing them into slumber, buying the Void Realm some time."

"We can only say that what we did merely delayed the Void Realm's destruction."

"Otherwise, the Void Realm should have been destroyed in the Ancient Era."

Daoist Yuanqing explained.

"Wait, fell into slumber?"

"You're not saying the enemies haven't left and are still in the Void Realm?"

Jiang Fan was stunned.

He felt like he was hearing an earth-shattering secret, his heart surging with waves.

The enemies from the Ancient Era weren't dead, hadn't left the Void Realm, merely fell into slumber.

This was too exaggerating.
