Chapter 2429: The Sky Has Fallen!
After entering the light gate, Ye Zhangqing only felt himself in a turbulent great river.
All around were the surging, tumultuous river waters; there was no way to control his body, he could only let himself drift with the current.
The others were the same.
Fortunately, after a bout of dizziness, everyone passed through the light gate unharmed, arriving in a completely new space.
All they saw was a space like chaos, and at its center was a huge purple‑gold light cluster.
Around the light cluster was a ring of auspicious clouds, and at that moment everyone stood upon those clouds.
"Master."
"Father."
At this moment someone shouted in surprise; not far away, the senior experts who had entered through another entrance earlier also appeared here.
In that case, everyone could be considered to have successfully entered the Immortal Artifact Space.
Ye Zhangqing also spotted Huang Lao at the front of the crowd at a glance, and upon seeing Ye Zhangqing, Huang Lao likewise gave him a knowing smile.
Seeing that Ye Zhangqing was unharmed, Huang Lao finally let out a sigh of relief.
Earlier, in the entrance space, he had actually carried out a major deed together with the Heavenly Family's elder and Miao Cuihua.
Originally, the Blood Refining Grand Formation had already touched the bottom line of the three; it could only be said that He Yingqin had gone too far.
It had already given the three murderous intent, though they were merely waiting for an opportunity.
And in the entrance space, just before the second trial, the independent space where everyone was located was the perfect battlefield.
First, there was no need to worry about affecting the Immortal Realm; second, that space was extremely stable, after all it was born of heaven and earth, more than enough to withstand the aftershocks of battle from experts like Huang Lao and the others.
So, the three immediately joined forces.
In response, He Yingqin, although he did not surrender, fought back desperately.
However, Huang Lao and the two others, who held an absolute advantage, naturally would not give him any chance; they would rather pay a heavy price than fail to kill this old thing here.
A heaven‑shaking battle thus erupted; as for the final result, He Yingqin was slain.
Meanwhile, the senior experts who had accompanied them witnessed the entire process from start to finish.
Although no one dared to intervene, each person's heart was still filled with panic.
After all, He Yingqin's status was that of the elder of the Ultimate Bliss Palace, one of the present era's strongest.
Yet now he had been killed by the combined efforts of three other present‑era powerhouses; this is absolutely a sky‑piercing matter, enough to alter the entire landscape of the Immortal Realm.
Especially those forces affiliated with the Ultimate Bliss Palace, who watched He Yingqin being slain helplessly; although Huang Lao and the others ultimately did not act against them, their hearts were already stirred by tremendous upheaval.
Thus, at this moment, although they had successfully entered the Immortal Artifact Space, the senior experts still wore complex expressions.
That heaven‑shaking battle just now, even until now, everyone finds it hard to accept.
"Kid, we've killed that old thing He Yingqin; what about An Sheng Xin?"
At this moment, Huang Lao looked at Ye Zhangqing before him and briefly recounted what had happened earlier.
Since He Yingqin is dead, killing An Sheng Xin is just a matter of convenience.
But upon hearing those words, Ye Zhangqing was left stunned; He Yingqin had been killed?
Their efficiency, Huang Lao and company, is not lacking compared to my own.
After a moment of stupor, Ye Zhangqing came to his senses and said.
"An Sheng Xin is also dead."
"Huh???"
Upon hearing that, Huang Lao glanced at the crowd—indeed, there was no sign of An Sheng Xin—then looked at Ye Zhangqing and grinned.
"You kid, not bad; have you handled the life‑transfer token?"
"Done."
"Good; the Ultimate Bliss Palace still doesn't know these two are dead. Once we wrap up here, we'll wipe out the Ultimate Bliss Palace outright."
Upon hearing that Ye Zhangqing had also prepared the life‑transfer token without prematurely revealing An Sheng Xin's death, what a coincidence—they had done the same.
Having prepared the life‑transfer token in advance, they temporarily stabilized He Yingqin's life token.
This way, they could catch the Ultimate Bliss Palace off guard.
After all, for the Ultimate Bliss Palace, at this point they still don't know that their patriarch and holy son have already died, so they won't have any defenses.
Thinking of this, Huang Lao casually asked Ye Zhangqing who he had chosen as the life‑transfer token's bearer, making sure it couldn't be someone who would die.
Ye Zhangqing pointed to Tie Dan not far away; upon hearing that, Tianxing Lao Ren snapped his head up, his eyes filled with disbelief.
Tie Dan actually became the life‑transfer token bearer for An Sheng Xin—this this this…
No wonder Tianxing Lao Ren is so surprised; he is the life‑transfer token bearer for He Yingqin.
What's going on—are these father and son so fated?
Not to mention those two, even Huang Lao and Ye Zhangqing were stunned upon learning this.
"Are these two father and son?"
"I just picked them at random; I didn't know."
"Me too."
They were just casually chosen; after all, there are no particular requirements for the life‑transfer token bearer, as long as the person doesn't die.
But who would have thought that the casually chosen person would turn out to be a father‑son pair—is this fate?
Yet this fate is something Tie Dan and Tianxing Lao Ren absolutely do not want; the father and son locked eyes, their eyes full of bitterness.
They felt they were simply damned to the core.
"Ah………………"
A silent sigh rose in their hearts.
Since He Yingqin and An Sheng Xin are dead and things have gone so smoothly, all that remains is to wait for affairs here to conclude.
Immediately, Ye Zhangqing and the others also turned their gaze toward the purple-gold light cluster not far away.
Since entering this Immortal Artifact Space, everyone still hasn't seen a trace of the Fairy Artifact.
After looking around, they also didn't discover any other exits in the surroundings.
This space seems to be a sealed space.
Since it's a sealed space, the Fairy Artifact should be right here.
"Could it be that this cluster of purple-gold light is the Fairy Artifact itself?"
The Heavenly Family Ancestor murmured in speculation, otherwise there shouldn't even be a trace visible.
Upon hearing that, everyone's attention naturally also focused on that cluster of purple-gold light.
The Heavenly Family and the Wushen Palace each possess their own Fairy Artifacts, so the Heavenly Family Ancestor and Miao Qianqian are naturally familiar with Fairy Artifacts.
Huang Lao has also seen a Fairy Artifact before, so he knows what one looks like.
But as for this cluster of purple-gold light, setting aside its strange form, the problem is that it doesn't even have a hint of Tiāndào qìxī.
Fairy Artifacts are born of heaven and earth, not artificially refined, so every Fairy Artifact should be tinged with Tiāndào qìxī.
Put simply, heaven and earth are the forgers of Fairy Artifacts; it is heaven and earth that forge these immensely powerful Fairy Artifacts.
"There should still be some kind of test."
Huang Lao continued, estimating that the restrictions of this Immortal Artifact Space's rules have prevented everyone from reaching that point, so the Fairy Artifact hasn't fully manifested.
Once the unique rules of this space are satisfied, the Fairy Artifact will naturally appear, and only then will it be time to seize the Fairy Artifact.
Upon hearing that, the Heavenly Family Ancestor and Miao Cuihua both nodded; that reasoning does make sense.
