Chapter 262

Approaching the black Undying Mountain, those Kings of Mountains and Emperors of Peaks were towering and majestic, their terrifying energy causing one's heart to palpitate.

Fortunately, Lin Xian sacrificed the Great Emperor Dao fruit, Little Nan Nan, standing on invincible ground and becoming immune to the Forbidden Zone's pressure.

The Tianxuan Holy Master attacking a Forbidden Zone is a tradition; how could he let his predecessors have all the glory?

"I, along with Little Nan Nan, shall suppress the Life Forbidden Zone, deter the Venerables, and descend upon the Undying Mountain."

Lin Xian spoke proudly, meeting countless disdainful gazes, yet his expression did not change. He simply coughed, letting the Master Master Hei Huang carry Little Nan Nan ahead while he and the Fighting Victorious Buddha brought up the rear.

In the past, the Wu Shi Great Emperor walked his dog in the Undying Mountain; the Venerables dared not speak, and the Forbidden Zone was as silent as a cicada in winter.

On this day, Lin Xian descended upon the Undying Mountain, and the Venerables likewise had no reaction at all.

Therefore, he, Lin Mou, = Wu Shi Great Emperor.

"Proceed with caution," the Fighting Victorious Buddha urged. Although he was not a Venerable, he had touched the Quasi-Emperor realm, allowing him to bypass most of the restrictions and lead everyone safely deep inside.

They stopped their steps before a lake that looked like a gemstone, because going any further would truly mean entering the core area of the Undying Mountain.

"There is an ancient tree over there that glows..." Little Nan Nan pointed innocently toward the depths of the Undying Mountain range.

"It must be the Ancient Tea Tree of Dao Enlightenment!" the Master Master Hei Huang barked excitedly: "In the past, the Wu Shi Great Emperor once said that even among the Undying Divine Medicines, the Dao Enlightenment Tea Tree counts as one of the most precious."

There are gaps between Undying Medicines; some bear fruit every four or five thousand years, while others take ten thousand or even tens of thousands of years. Some, like the Green Lotus Divine Medicine, even take human form—if it weren't for its own bad luck, it would have almost stepped onto the immortal path.

The Fighting Victorious Buddha's eyes bloomed with divine light, unleashing his Fiery Eyes of Truth. He didn't just see it himself; he shared his vision, allowing everyone to see the Dao Enlightenment Tea Tree together.

It was an ancient tree with a trunk as sturdy as a dragon, covered in leaves of different colors and shapes—golden, crimson, and pure white—flowing with radiance. On them, Dao patterns of Qilin, Phoenix, and Divine Dragon swirled, totaling one hundred and eight leaves.

In extremely special years, the Dao Enlightenment Tea Tree would not only bear fruit but also grow three thousand immortal leaves.

What are the three thousand Great Daos? They were manifested vividly on this divine tree; each leaf represented a different Dao, holding extremely important significance for enlightenment.

"Can we dig it up?"

Lin Xian muttered, his gaze still burning. If he could move this Undying Medicine into his Wheel and Sea, he feared his small world's three thousand Great Daos would all be complete.

The Green Emperor, without relying on the power of the external myriad heavens, wanted to rely on himself to evolve an Immortal Domain; if successful, he would be a true Red Dust Immortal.

Unfortunately, this path is extremely difficult and is a dead end.

It cruelly left an Immortal King reincarnation half-dead.

After witnessing this, Lin Xian settled for the next best thing: he wanted to borrow the power of the external myriad heavens, sponge off eternity, and utilize all immortal medicines, immortal artifacts, immortal Qi, immortal light, immortal Daos, and immortal talismans to forge a miniature Immortal Domain.

"The Undying Mountain is a mysterious place, one of the universe's original immortal soils. Only this place can grow the Dao Enlightenment Tea Tree. In the past, the Wu Shi Great Emperor tried to dig it up, but it could not survive in the outside world."

The Master Master Hei Huang gritted his teeth, extremely unwilling to accept this, saying that if he could have dug up the Dao Enlightenment Tea Tree, this big black dog would have long ago slandered it to the Wu Shi Great Emperor to take this Undying Medicine away.

"In the past, the Great Completion Holy Body was able to carve out a section of the Holy Cliff from the Life Forbidden Zone to deter the Venerables."

"In the future, we might not be unable to move the Undying Mountain away as well."

Lin Xian suddenly had a bold idea: to eat the mountain and the tree together, a true swallowing of heaven and earth.

If there is no immortal medicine in the Wheel and Sea Secret Realm, move it from the great universe; if there is no immortal mountain in the reincarnation realm, take it from the Life Forbidden Zone.

Lin Xian is not the creator of the Immortal Domain; he is merely the mover of the Immortal Domain.

Everyone was startled by Lin Xian's bold and arrogant idea. The idea was beautiful, but reality was cruel.

Life Forbidden Zones are inhabited by more than one Venerable. At their peak, several Life Forbidden Zones could very well have a dozen or even twenty Venerables, just like the Primordial Ancient Mine; that would be a despairing number.

Even now, the weakest Forbidden Zones, like the Undying Mountain and the Reincarnation Sea, because they frequently launched dark turmoils and were suppressed by successive Human Emperors, have experienced hundreds of thousands of years of consumption, yet they still have three or four Venerables.

The Eastern Wasteland Heavenly Court and the Western Desert Buddhist sect alliance, gathering two contemporary Venerables and countless Emperor weapons, barely had the ability to wrestle with the weakest Forbidden Zone, the Undying Mountain.

Without this great guarantee, no one would dare to actively test a Forbidden Zone.

"Even the Wu Shi Great Emperor did not sweep through the Forbidden Zones; he only destroyed some Venerables."

The Master Master Hei Huang sighed: "This problem is unsolvable. As long as people continue to attain the Dao in later generations, the Life Forbidden Zones will exist eternally, unless the immortal path opens wide..."

There were dark turmoils in the Mythological Age, the Primordial Age, and the Desolate Ancient Age; they never ceased. Life Forbidden Zones only wither, but they never disappear.

The story of the dragon slayer eventually becoming the evil dragon has been staged repeatedly across eras, stretching through eternity and shaping countless joys, sorrows, and monstrous blood cases.

Only three words can describe it: Immortal Calamity!

"The Immortal Calamity will be resolved in this lifetime; the eternal problems will all have answers in this lifetime."

Lin Xian said decisively: "The eternal dark Venerables have come to this lifetime, and the Emperors of the past have also left behind backup plans. In the ultimate collision between light and darkness, everything will be revealed."

"Uniting the thirty eternal Emperors who care for all living beings, and uniting all forces that can be united—isn't this the meaning of the birth of the Immortal Alliance, and isn't this the direction of the Heavenly Court's efforts?"

"In fact, we have already succeeded; we have taken the first step and arrived in the Undying Mountain."

The spokesperson of the Emperors, the messenger of the Heavenly Court, the executor of the eternal grand plan.

This is the true meaning of Lin Xian's identity; the Temple of Ten Thousand Emperors exists because of this.

"Good, good, the little friend is indeed worthy of the title 'Heavenly Master'." The Fighting Victorious Buddha sighed with emotion: "To be a disciple of Heaven and calculate eternity—you simply don't look like a contemporary cultivator."

Yes, not just Ye Fan and the Master Master Hei Huang's group, but even the Fighting Victorious Buddha began to suspect that Lin Xian was some old monster who had lived a second life and was reborn into this lifetime.

"The Heart of Heaven is not the highest; the hearts of people are the first."

"If it weren't for the efforts of generations of Human Emperors and Ancient Sovereigns, what plans would I have to execute?"

Lin Xian said modestly: "I am merely a humble social instrument of the Heavenly Court, used to contain the fruits of the deep deliberations of the eternal Emperors."

"Fighting Victorious Buddha, please look—those are the Dao patterns left by the Void Great Emperor in the Undying Mountain; they are one of the Void Great Emperor's backup plans."

On a small black mountain not far away, there were ancient carvings that looked mysterious and unpredictable, like an invisible net sealing this place.

Those are the traces of the Void Dao.

The Void Great Emperor fought with the Undying Mountain for his entire life, engraving his most proud Void Dao patterns into the Forbidden Zone and forming an array map.

This is also the reason why the Void Emperor Mirror hangs high outside the Undying Mountain yet has the confidence to receive everyone out at any time.

Void is not inferior to anyone in his life.

The Void Dao is the ultimate of space; it can attack and retreat. He was a hot-headed youth who dared to trade blood and life with Venerables, yet he could also fight guerrilla warfare, retreating and maneuvering at any time to consume the Venerables' blood energy.
