Chapter 2534: Forbidden Zone Ancient Emperor: Immortal
The distance between them is unknown, in this place where the Immortal-Falling Realm has fallen, two Forbidden Zone Ancient Emperors coldly gaze upon each other.
The air is oppressive, as if solidified.
In this heaven and earth exists something extremely heavy, the space pierced by the Extinction Law Pupil recovers swiftly, and the heavy chaotic void once again blocks the gazes of the two Forbidden Zone Ancient Emperors.
Both are far from their peak state, moreover suppressed by the time of the Golden Great Age.
"This is the second time."
"Truly, a very good old thing — "
Jiang Ding Zi murmured.
The first time was before he attained the Dao, when he fought the Phoenix True Immortal Maiden; at the moment of her death, her flesh and blood essence strangely vanished, and this occurred in an era before the attainment of the Ancient Emperor Dao, terrifying beyond measure; to this day, Jiang Ding has not figured out how the Immortal Ancient Emperor achieved it.
He actually possesses the ability to interfere with the present world in an era before the attainment of the Ancient Emperor Dao!
Even until now, Jiang Ding cannot fully determine what path the Immortal Ancient Emperor walks, only able to judge it as possibly the Nether Great Dao, Immortal.
This Ancient Emperor is too ancient, too mysterious; no one knows where he came from, in which era he attained the Dao, what he experienced, what he arranged; even for the Tai Shang Da Ri Forbidden Zone Ancient Emperor, this person is too ancient, everything already buried in time, unknown to anyone.
"This seems to be an old thing that does not like frontal slaughter, preferring to harm from the shadows."
Jiang Ding judged thus.
Clang!
He drew his sword, the Tai Qing Flying Sword emerged from its sheath, yet it did not slash at any enemy, but directly at his own immortal body, his own immortal soul, his own Dao heart.
Following this, the sword light of the Extinction Great Dao swept across, and a terrifying scene appeared.
The white, vibrant body of the green-clad youth stood like a banished immortal amidst the mortal world, but within a hazy sword light, his body suddenly changed, his skin turned bluish-black, his pupils widened terrifyingly, and blackish blood tears streamed down, his black hair became foul and matted, his entire body covered with fine black threads emitting black aura, slicing his skin into small squares.
At this moment, the Tai Shang Da Ri Ancient Emperor resembled a corpse-like vengeful ghost suppressed in a coffin!
"When?"
Jiang Ding's mouth twitched, a deep dread arose in his heart.
How many years?
How many years, always him sneaking up on others, moving stealthily to reach the battlefield, always seizing the initiative, although this initiative is often unused.
Yet he did not expect that upon just arriving in the Golden Great Age, he would be silently ambushed, only now discovering it!
This is a Forbidden Zone Ancient Emperor extremely skilled in concealment and survival!
"This Golden Great Age truly produces unparalleled talents generation after generation."
Jiang Ding revealed a hint of admiration amidst the flashing black and white light.
Clang!
The Tai Qing Flying Sword's light flashed, destructive sword intent humming low.
Jiang Ding extended his hand, instantly inserting it into his own body, extracting from within something like an embryo and seed; this flesh-and-blood monster bore black threads on its body, connecting to patches of skin; at this moment, as it was forcibly pulled out, black threads like meridians were forcibly drawn out, bringing forth much flesh and blood.
"Waa waa waa — "
"Wuu wuu — "
This ghost-infant-like monster wailed mournfully, emitting sharp cries.
"Interesting."
"It is something of curses, life, and the Nether direction."
Jiang Ding stared at the ghost infant for a long time, the Extinction Law Sword Qi in his hand erupted, grinding it into fragments; the black threads likewise instantly turned to ash.
Finally, the attack from the Immortal Ancient Emperor was severed.
This was not easy; the Tai Shang Da Ri Ancient Emperor paid the price of severe injury, his foundation diminished by at least thirty percent, his recovery speed further lagging behind that of the Immortal Ancient Emperor, seemingly becoming a fixed state.
The Immortal Ancient Emperor's purpose was achieved.
"If not for environmental factors, I could now temporarily shift strategy.
Jiang Ding whispered.
One contact, instantly weakened by thirty percent foundation, severely injured, the opportunity already gone; even the innate ability of the Great Day Sword Dao would not deliberately empower the enemy before the Immortal Ancient Emperor, nourishing the opponent's growth; the Great Day Sword Dao in combat is extremely sharp and professional, accurately judging the enemy's strength.
Of course, this substantive failure can find reasons.
For example, the Immortal Ancient Emperor first shed the time mark, seized the initiative, not due to inferior strength; if both were in the same state, they would not so easily lose the Dao.
Again, if charging forward head-on, the Immortal Ancient Emperor would likely retreat, not engage in direct combat, and the curse attack intensity would similarly be greatly weakened — and so on; all such reasons are absolutely true, perfectly reasonable objective facts.
But these reasons are all meaningless.
Between sword arts, there is only life and death, only victory and defeat, no reasons.
If the enemy did it, then it was done.
Every Forbidden Zone Ancient Emperor is not an easy opponent.
Time flows slowly.
Many historical Ancient Emperors clearly feel that the suppression of heaven and earth upon them is weakening; some Ancient Emperors even see terrifyingly extreme immortal Dao fortune gathering toward a certain direction; the flow of immortal Dao matter and countless heaven-favored talents has already substantially influenced some operations of the universe.
In the leisurely passage, millions of years have passed.
The Great Day Forbidden Zone.
The Tai Shang Da Ri Ancient Emperor sits cross-legged on a mountain slope, before him a pool of rippling water, in the pool a twelve-petaled lotus platform
swallowing chaos, raising spiritual mist and rule torrents like a violent storm; the creation unimaginable to mortal beings slowly accumulates within.
Within the lotus platform, a yellowish tender leaf has already become visible to the naked eye.
This is the fourth-life immortal medicine of the Forbidden Zone Ancient Emperor, containing unimaginable creation; any point of it can reforge the immortal body of mortal beings, grant innate divine abilities, lay a terrifyingly deep immortal foundation, allowing one to take several steps on the path to immortality, becoming the supreme opportunity for mortal beings.
Although, such an opportunity is nearly impossible to obtain.
This opportunity has an owner.
"After I shed part of the time mark, I recovered part of the ability to swallow heaven and earth's spiritual energy; the growth speed of the Tai Shang Da Ri Immortal Medicine has accelerated."
"Still need — twenty-five hundred million years."
Jiang Ding calculated, his eyes showing some helplessness.
In shallow water, it is difficult to give birth to flood dragons; a flowerpot-like bonsai is likewise difficult to grow into a towering tree; the four-generation immortal elixir is a cosmic-level creation, not something that can be nurtured in a single place.
Silently pondering some problems, he deduced some non-essential experiments of the Eight Characters Immortal Classic under energy-saving conditions, and time passed in this way.
Years later, Jiang Ding directed his gaze toward the edge of the Great Sun Forbidden Zone.
Fate, in the eyes of the ancient emperor of the forbidden zone, was as clear as the lines on one's palm, especially when concerning the fate of a place rather than the entire universe.
At the edge of the Great Sun Forbidden Zone, more than a dozen cultivators at the Nascent Soul, Soul Transformation, and Void Refinement realms approached cautiously.
