Chapter 242: Breakthrough, End-Realm Sacred Domain Master!

"This is unknown. However, the Ancestral King once said: unless there is an Immortal King suppressing the world, never open this place for eternity.

I suppose the object suppressed within must have a great connection with an existence of the Immortal King level."

The Lingxuan Sacred Domain Master spoke. He actually did not understand either: since there was an era when an Immortal King was in the world that could open this place, why didn't the Ancestral King of that time open it himself? Qin Jiang had the same doubt. If it could be opened when an Immortal King was in the world, it meant the Lingxuan Xianwang felt that one Immortal King could resolve the suppressed object here.

Then why not resolve it personally?

"Since the time of the Lingxuan Xianwang, how many Immortal Kings have appeared?" Qin Jiang looked at the Lingxuan Sacred Domain Master.

There were some forces on the continent that had produced Immortal Kings, but it was difficult to define the years of their existence.

Because an Immortal King could step into the past with their true body and could withstand the backlash of the River of Time to change history on a small scale.

Therefore, it was difficult to determine in which era the Immortal Kings who appeared at that time had attained the Dao.

Only ancient forces like the Lingxuan Sacred Domain and the Dizu Imperial Dynasty would have records.

The Lingxuan Sacred Domain Master could not help but look at Qin Jiang upon hearing this. "Immortal Monarch, you joke. How could an Immortal King be achieved so easily? Since the Ancestral King ascended to heaven back then, no Immortal King has appeared in the world."

Speaking of this, he raised his eyebrows. "However, there were two visions some time ago, stars covering the sky, and supreme existences revealing their forms.

I discussed it with several old friends and guessed it might be related to the legendary Nine Luminaries Immortal King.

Coupled with the emergence of the Nine Luminaries Immortal King's ruins on the border of the Eastern Region, perhaps that person is about to return."

Qin Jiang was slightly surprised. "After an Immortal King ascends to heaven, can they still return?"

The so-called Immortal King ascending to heaven was actually a secret belonging to the existence of Immortal Kings. Why they ascended and where they went after ascending,

besides the Immortal King themselves, no one knew.

But since ancient times, it had never been heard that an Immortal King who ascended to heaven could return.

For no reason, he thought of his Potential Panel, the Hell Gate that would emerge at an unknown time, his Qingdi Longevity Record, and the mysterious Daoist who passed down the Demon Ancestor Sweeping Heaven Record.

He had once suspected that the mysterious Daoist was the one who left behind the Sea Abyss, but that was clearly something only an Immortal King could do.

And in the current world, there should be no Immortal Kings left.

A feeling that a chaotic world was coming rose in his heart, but there was no clue.

"The Ancestor once said that before the Ancestral King ascended to heaven, he once watched the moon alone at night and sighed that perhaps he really wouldn't be able to return after this departure.

If it were as the Ancestral King said, there should be a chance to return, but there has never been a recorded precedent," the Lingxuan Sacred Domain Master said.

This was also a tacit understanding between the major forces that had produced Immortal Kings: as long as their own Ancestral King still had a sliver of a chance to return, it was equivalent to having a death-immunity medal in hand.

Even if it were a hatred of life and death, they would leave behind a bloodline and preserve the name of the Immortal Sect.

Qin Jiang nodded slightly. He looked at the statue; if there were no surprises, this statue should be that Xuanwu Xianwang.

He lowered his head and looked at the complex array patterns on the altar at his feet.

Since an Immortal King was so difficult to achieve, did the Xuanwu Xianwang not think of this point back then?

Or did he think of it, but... Suddenly, his eyes sharpened, staring fixedly at the altar, as if wanting to see through the concealment of the array patterns.

Unless there was a living creature under this altar! The Imperial Dynasty that established its capital here back then held a grand sacrifice every year, so even if it was being suppressed, the living creature under this altar still maintained its activity.

Moreover, this living creature was a threat even to an Immortal King, perhaps even a fatal threat! But if one waited until the next Immortal King appeared, at least a million years would have passed. By then, perhaps it would not be necessary to pay such a great price.

He looked at the Lingxuan Sacred Domain Master. "Sacred Domain Master, has the strength of the nematode creatures in this water area changed?"

The Lingxuan Sacred Domain Master was somewhat puzzled. "According to the records in the sect, when the Ancestral King opened the Dao Land back then, Sacred Domain-level nematode creatures once appeared in this water area.

However, they were all suppressed and killed by the Ancestral King. Later, Sacred Domain-level nematode creatures did appear a few times, but the frequency became less and less.

To this day, there hasn't been a Sacred Domain-level existence for hundreds of thousands of years."

Speaking of this, he looked outside the fluorescent blue light barrier. "However, these few might have a chance to break through."

Qin Jiang also looked over, and just as he was about to take action, he was stopped by the Lingxuan Sacred Domain Master.

"Immortal Monarch, no need to take action. These nematode creatures cannot be killed when they are below the Sacred Domain level, especially in this water area.

But when this kind of nematode creature reaches the Sacred Domain level, it can leave this water area. Only then can it be ground away."

Qin Jiang frowned slightly. "You mean these nematodes cannot be taken away from this water area?" He looked at the ball of threads in his hand. If they couldn't be taken away, it was a bit troublesome.

"Once nematodes below the Sacred Domain level leave this water area, they will quickly wither into dust," the Lingxuan Sacred Domain Master said.

Qin Jiang looked at the ball of threads in his hand, released green light, and wrapped it with the power of the Qingdi Longevity Record.

Almost instantly, the ball of threads surged, and sharp teeth appeared on the surface to bite the green light, but under Qin Jiang's continuous infusion, they couldn't bite through the green light at all.

The Lingxuan Sacred Domain Master looked at the ferocious, surging nematodes, his pupils shrinking slightly. He had never seen the nematodes in this state before.

Hmm, after going back, I must record this.

With a flip of his palm, the green light ball imprisoning the ball of threads was collected by Qin Jiang into an alien space.

Almost instantly, the Sand Scorpion King sleeping in the alien space rushed out with a 'whoosh'.

It jumped directly onto Qin Jiang's palm, waving its front pincers, as if complaining about something.

Qin Jiang looked at the Sand Scorpion King with some surprise. Did it perceive something? Or was it instinct?

He gently stroked the Sand Scorpion King, placed it on his shoulder, and then looked at the Lingxuan Sacred Domain Master. "Sacred Domain Master, I will leave now. Those antiques and old objects, I'll trouble you."

"Immortal Monarch, you are too polite. It's just a small effort. If you have other needs later, just say so directly," the Lingxuan Sacred Domain Master laughed.

"Then many thanks, Sacred Domain Master."

Having said that, Qin Jiang waved his hand to separate the water area outside the fluorescent blue light barrier and left directly.

The Lingxuan Sacred Domain Master standing in place looked at Qin Jiang's back with some surprise. I... I have a teleportation array.

He glanced at the nematode creatures around him. If calculated by time, it would take about another thousand years for a Sacred Domain-level existence to appear.

This was a bit of a pity. Looking at Immortal Monarch Qin's appearance, he seemed to want to study them.

If he could capture a Sacred Domain-level nematode creature and gift it to Immortal Monarch Qin, it would likely be excellent.

Shaking his head, he activated a secret artifact and left.

After he left, the nematode creatures around did not disperse as usual.

In the water area crowded with nematodes, a flash of blood light appeared, and a blood-red nematode only as thick as a hair burrowed into the fluorescent blue light barrier.

It fell directly to the ground, twisting and crawling toward the base of the statue. When it was within one meter of the base, fluorescent blue light shone down from the turtle shell in the statue's hand.

Immediately, white smoke rose from the blood-red nematode's body. Its speed increased, and it rushed directly into the crack under the base and disappeared.

Three months later, on the road to the Northern Border of the Eastern Region, in a certain valley, a complex concealment array pattern rose, shrouding the entire valley.

In the valley, Qin Jiang sat cross-legged, his gaze falling on the panel.

Over these few months, besides the Lingxuan Immortal City, he had also ransacked another Immortal City and several Divine Cities.

With the full help of the Lingxuan Sacred Domain, the efficiency was very high.
