Chapter 210

~7 min read 1,354 words

Beidou…… I've heard of it too; it's said many great emperors emerged there, and even more than one immortal medicine— I don't know if it's true or not.

Li Tian, who was gnawing on meat, walked over curiously; aside from Zi Wei, he had only heard of such a vast Gu Xing in the outer realms.

Not a small number. Yang Zhu replied.

How is this possible? A star field can at most produce one immortal medicine, yet Beidou has so many!

Li Tian stared agape, utterly shocked— immortal medicine is too miraculous; a whole heaven and earth can barely grow one, so where did the others come from?

Your vision is shallow; just because you haven't seen it doesn't mean it doesn't exist.

Duan De sneered, wearing the look of one who regards a country bumpkin; they'd gotten along for half a year, their relationship was decent, at least not yet grown distant.

You think Beidou is what kind of place? Inside, every single one is a tough character……

The big black dog muttered, leaving aside other things, just speaking of the seven great life‑forbidden zones, even a great emperor would feel his scalp tingle upon going there.

The Void Emperor spent his life in conquest and only brought away five at his death, yet within the Primordial Ancient Mine alone, the dormant supremes number no less than ten!

Cry!

The Divine Phoenix spread its wings, like a slowly rising ball of light, shooting out from Yang Zhu's body; instantly, the rich medicinal fragrance permeated heart and spleen, almost enough to intoxicate.

Roar!

The True Dragon shot forth, its whole body glittering gold, an extremely pure life aura sweeping forth; specks of light halo poured down, and the mountain range within tens of miles instantly turned lush and verdant.

Roar……

The Qilin soared, its whole body crystalline and translucent, shining brightly; after long cultivation, it had become considerably sturdier than at the start.

Immortal medicine— each stalk is a supreme immortal treasure; once it appears, the universe trembles, no race can remain indifferent, and even the ancient great emperors would be moved!

Damn! Three immortal medicines……

Li Tian and Yan Yixi's hearts skipped a beat, they held their breath, their emotions beyond shocked— before them appeared three genuine immortal medicines, true supreme immortal treasures! The three creatures coiled around Yang Zhu's side, intimately close, and the immortal phoenix even landed on his shoulder, letting out a few soft cries.

I understand.

Yang Zhu's expression shifted slightly, then he nodded heavily.

The three creatures continually gazed northward, a strange glint flashing in their eyes; after circling for a while, they returned to Yang Zhu's body.

Don't eat, head to the North Sea—the Fusang ancient tree has appeared.

It turned out just moments ago, the Immortal Divine Phoenix Medicine sensed the Fusang immortal medicine, which had already risen from the North Sea's sea‑eye, seeking Yang Zhu to subdue it.

Fusang ancient tree? Let's go, go, go!

Upon hearing it was immortal medicine, the big black dog's eyes lit up; he dropped the meat and immediately began setting up the domain gate.

Brother Yang, you actually have three immortal medicines……

Yan Yixi thought he'd seen some of the world, but at this moment his excited and shocked feelings could not be suppressed.

There's still one more; I just didn't bring it.

Duan De and the big black dog teamed up, carrying out the setup together, occasionally inserting a remark.

As Yang Zhu said, this time we must cross over a million li; the complexity is imaginable, and we cannot allow any deviation— no carelessness permitted.

……

Upon hearing that, Yan Yixi and Li Tian stared at each other, unable to utter a word for a long time.

Even the ancient great emperors might not possess one stalk, yet Yang Zhu alone has four, and it seems the Fusang ancient tree is also determined to be obtained.

Just how heaven‑defying talent must one have to attract so many immortal medicines to follow, and how terrifying must one's foundation be to act with such fearless confidence?

Simply unimaginable, unheard of since ancient times! "Ah— finally done!"

After two hours, the big black dog and Duan De, exhausted to near collapse, finally finished laying the domain gate. Activating the gate, several people vanished from the spot, crossing the void.

The North Sea, a vast expanse of darkness, black waves surging, immense and boundless.

In Zi Wei, there are many legends about it.

It is said that in the depths of the North Sea lies a boundless sea‑eye, a place where ancient great emperors exiled criminals, imprisoning only the most vicious and evil.

Once drawn into the sea‑eye, one cannot escape even across ten lives and ten worlds; even ancient sages could only perish trapped within— truly terrifying.

Is this the North Sea?

Li Tian wore a five‑colored ceremonial robe, dazzling and eye‑catching; gazing at the scene before him, he stood dazed.

The boundless ocean, black waves rolling up to the high heavens, shaking the clouds in the sky apart, a terrifying sight.

As the sea surged, occasionally an ancient creature would reveal a section of its body, as large as a mountain, nearly capable of shielding the sky, shocking and heart‑pounding.

How should we search?

The big black dog muttered, all around an endless expanse of black seawater, making one's heart involuntarily tighten with anxiety.

Wait while I study it a moment.

Yang Zhu took out a sea chart; its pattern must correspond to the myriad heavenly stars before a route can be slowly deduced— quite marvelous.

As for how the sea chart came about, naturally it drifted down slowly from the Wuji Immortal Platform when he arrived in the Zi Wei star field.

This is also why Yang Zhu must come to the North Sea; it is highly likely that the Fusang divine tree is the goal of this stop.

Let's go deeper first; we'll only need the sea chart then.

After half an hour, Yang Zhu put away the sea chart; having deduced it, the chart pointed to a mysterious place— Tang Valley.

For now, we have just entered the North Sea; we don't yet need the chart— we only need to press deeper.

Yang Zhu led the group in a swift dash across the sea; each seemed like a divine ray, cleaving the horizon, leaving brilliant ripples along the way.

The endless ocean is ink‑black, boundless and dark, waves rolling up to a thousand feet, the tremendous sound unceasing in the ears.

Here, shrouded in endless darkness, the view is a lifeless desolation, devoid of any vitality, with no other beings active upon the sea.

Brother Yang, why did the ancient great emperors all head for Beidou?

While on the road, with nothing else to do, Yan Yixi kept asking, wanting to learn more.

To become an immortal.

Many Great Emperors, in their later years, would go to the Northern Dipper, because there is something there that attracts them.

The ancient Great Emperors, each one a supreme existence, reaching up to the Nine Heavens and down to the Nine Netherworlds, overlooking the vast universe, having no rivals.

What can attract them, besides the Immortal Medicine, is only the two words 'become an immortal'! 'You wouldn't also have an Imperial Weapon, would you?'

Yan Yixi pondered for a long time, as if recalling something, suppressing his excitement, and asked this question.

'Naturally.' Yang Zhu did not deny it, nodding his head.

'Ah, your opportunity and foundation are truly terrifyingly great!'

Finally, Yan Yixi let out a long sigh, his eyes flashing with divine light, not too disheartened, because he already knew Yang Zhu's identity.

But what puzzled him was that Yang Zhu was clearly just an Imperial Son, yet his foundation felt even greater than that of a Great Emperor...

(Wushi Great Emperor: a trivial matter.) Just four stalks of Immortal Medicine—throughout history, no Great Emperor or Human Emperor has ever possessed such a quantity.

If not seen with one's own eyes, nobody would believe it was true, only thinking this person is mad.
