Bearing the pressure from above, he stepped forward toward the skeletal remains. The Nine Heavens Shadow Clan never had a member who died on their knees.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His lips were crimson, stained with blood, and his eyes grew more determined. Power surged within him, shaking the land marked by runes. \"Old Man Crossing the World... dare you face me, Immortal Absolute, in battle...!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Immortal Absolute's fists pressed against the ground, his body shrouded in a mist of blood. An overwhelming physical pressure spread in all directions, leaving a trace of shock in the eyes of all the guilty souls on the White Bone Land.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beneath the skeletal remains, five powerful figures from the Immortal Prison frowned in secret. After half a month of continuous battle, such a powerful trump card was still hidden. This clan was too well-suited to the rules of the Immortal Prison.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Immortal Absolute's massive body turned into a shadow, suddenly disappearing from its original spot!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In just a moment, he appeared atop the skeletal remains. His punch was like a mountain torrent, resonating loudly in all directions, showcasing the immense power gathered in that strike!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Crossing the World!!!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Immortal Absolute roared, his punch crashing down without any unnecessary movements, even causing the entire skeletal remains to sink slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A cold and calm moo echoed in all directions. Black Bull's eyes narrowed, transforming into a black whirlwind, charging upward!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boom—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thunder roared in mid-air as two fist shadows collided, their power immense, as if the entire sky trembled at their clash!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sudden burst of momentum made the surrounding air incredibly heavy, causing all the guilty souls to feel an indescribable sense of oppression, as if time in the Immortal Prison had stopped at that moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The strong souls on the White Bone Land frowned slightly, all looking up at the sky. What a terrifying Immortal Absolute...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two figures clashed for just an instant, and blood suddenly splattered in mid-air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Immortal Absolute felt as if his bones were about to shatter from that punch, even his soul trembled. He let out a muffled groan, falling from the sky like a meteor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His eyes lost focus... he couldn't even defeat Old Man Crossing the World's black bull spirit beast...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bang!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dust rose from the top of the skeletal remains as Immortal Absolute landed right in front of Chen Xun, coincidentally half-kneeling, one hand trembling on his knee.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Immortal Absolute's eyes trembled as he looked down at the human figure below, a great terror suddenly descending upon his heart, invading his mind!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Immortal Absolute, that's enough.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Xun spoke calmly, his eyes lifting to gaze into the distance. \"I've obtained your clan's blood essence. We have no enmity, and we won't trouble you. Whether you leave or stay is up to you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Immortal Absolute's situation was dire; he could no longer move.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That black bull's punch had shattered all his remaining strength, but he refused to fall, maintaining his posture.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He spoke in a low voice, \"Crossing the World, you're not a human being...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That doesn't matter. I now acknowledge that you're indeed strong, and I admire you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Xun's silver hair fluttered, his eyes cold. \"However, Bull and I never fight alone. In the struggle of the immortal path, you chose the wrong opponent.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Most importantly, this wasn't even their true power. The real duel would begin when ten primordial spirits gathered for a group fight. Of course, this wasn't needed in the Immortal Prison for now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Moo~\" Black Bull had returned to Chen Xun's side, fiddling with the booklet of all clans.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But upon hearing these words, Immortal Absolute almost choked on his last breath! His face twisted in disbelief. What kind of person could say such things with such ease?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, such words couldn't possibly come from a cultivator of the same realm. It was as if an ancient monster from the past was looking down on him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This mindset had already transcended their level, not to be viewed with the same perspective.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I've lost...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Despite having countless words in his heart, Immortal Absolute could only utter this sentence, without any reason. \"These are the blood essences I've collected. I'll give them to you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He slightly opened his mouth, his blood energy flowing over his body, and droplets of blood essence gathered above, shooting toward Chen Xun.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The latter's eyes focused, a hint of expression finally appearing in his cold gaze. \"Thank you, fellow prisoner. We'll accept these.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a gentle wave of his hand, the black jade blood lotus began transforming into a pure white, its brilliance falling from above, showering Immortal Absolute, whose injuries started healing rapidly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Immortal Absolute looked up at the sky, feeling his blood energy reviving, his injured bones quickly reshaping, but he couldn't discern what kind of celestial flower this was!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His eyes showed intense shock, his words carrying a hint of inquiry. \"This thing can actually refine the blood essence of all clans. If it could take form, it could become a clan of its own, and its talent would not be beneath my clan.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Xun raised his eyes slightly. \"It's something to look forward to, but why do you collect blood essence?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn't answer Immortal Absolute. The rootless essence flower wasn't a treasure; it was the flesh and blood essence of their bodies, reopening another path of physical cultivation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This path could only be sustained by a body enhanced by the system; otherwise, there would be limits to the realm, and ordinary beings would have long exploded and died, unable to replicate it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Immortal Absolute now felt his senses returning, beginning to sit cross-legged on the remains, while Chen Xun appeared as a small figure before him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he no longer had the arrogance from the beginning, his eyes showing respect. Crossing the World had the demeanor of a true strongman.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He spoke in a deep voice, \"Cultivating my clan's divine abilities, refining the flesh and blood form, but not using blood essence to strengthen one's blood energy and realm, though it's quite troublesome and has many limitations.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Immortal Absolute didn't explain much, like why one couldn't directly use the blood essence of predecessors to cultivate, refining the physical form, as the blood essence of living beings must be imbued with one's own battle intent, etc.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These things couldn't be explained in a few words; they were the legacies of his own race. If he could obtain Old Man Crossing the World's blood essence, he would surely soar to great heights.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, Immortal Absolute's eyes no longer held any fighting spirit, only waiting to break through to the Unity stage, hoping to close the distance between them. Everything imagined now was but an illusion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I see, it seems the path of physical immortality we walk is not the same.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Xun nodded, his words carrying a sense of grandeur. \"Let me spend the remaining years in peace in the Immortal Prison. Don't come seeking me again.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He looked toward the bottom of the skeletal remains, where people voluntarily followed him, helping him collect the blood essence of all beings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This Immortal Prison was vast, and even a thousand years was but a fleeting moment in this endless prison.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Human effort has its limits; it's impossible to achieve perfection without any oversight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Xun and Black Bull naturally didn't want to waste these thousand years. With more people, there was more strength, and they engaged in blood essence transactions on this skeletal remains, mainly because it was quite conspicuous here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn't want to waste a thousand years in such a prime location, only to find the rootless essence flower neither high nor low upon release. Obtaining the blood essence of all clans outside would be much more troublesome.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, upon reaching the top of this skeletal remains, they discovered some secrets.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But according to the rounding method, this place was ownerless. Now that they were here, the skeletal remains belonged to them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Xun's aura retracted, preparing to enter meditation. The rootless essence flower was nearing completion, and the Nine Heavens Shadow Clan was crucial. The next step was to harvest the skeletal remains, a thousand years in the Immortal Prison, love...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Crossing the World!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Speak.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I wish to leave the prison with you and temporarily follow you. Please teach me the method of physical cultivation!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Immortal Absolute suddenly spoke, surprisingly adopting the human gesture of cupping his hands, his posture quite humble and sincere. \"I, Immortal Absolute, am never afraid of defeat on the path of immortality, only of not being able to grow stronger!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh? And what's in it for me?\" Chen Xun smiled, suddenly looking at Black Bull. \"It seems like you're getting a great deal, Bull, don't you think?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Moo?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Black Bull was startled, still checking which clan's guilty souls hadn't been caught. Why did Chen Xun suddenly ask him? It responded perfunctorily, \"Moo moo~\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Immortal Absolute's gaze was solemn, staring intently at Chen Xun, speaking in a deep voice, \"Your benefit is the future of Immortal Absolute... would you be willing to bet it in today's Immortal Prison?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Xun lowered his head, revealing a meaningful smile. \"Interesting.\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1541,"2026-06-10T05:20:16.016Z",1,"novelbin.me","6324ce55aa84180a164809aefdd8dcc34e5aeb16aac401eef190880ec1e5a88c","eternal-tale-chapter-508","eternal-tale-chapter-506",979,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Feternal-tale-cover.jpg"]
