Chapter 211: Luring a Supreme from the Forbidden Zone

~14 min read 2,775 words

The three of them discussed quickly, but the controversy was also quite significant.

The Cai Family Great Saint felt that wasting an Undying Divine Medicine was truly excessive; that was, after all, a Supreme Divine Medicine capable of extending the lifespan of even a peak Great Emperor by one lifetime.

If possible, he would rather see such an Undying Divine Medicine used on Gai Jiuyou, allowing Gai Jiuyou to live out a second life during such Dark Turmoil.

Using it for his own breakthrough to Quasi-Emperor was far too wasteful.

God King Jiang Taixu did not quite agree with this plan either, mainly feeling that it was too risky.

Clearing out some individuals who harbored great malice toward the Human Race was indeed a good thing.

Clearing out some who harbored ulterior motives within the Human Race was also a good thing.

After all, for the future resistance against the Dark Turmoil, it would be better for such characters to die sooner.

However, causing too much of a stir because of this matter was also not very acceptable.

"I think it can be debated; you all don't understand the Seven Forbidden Zones of the Eastern Wasteland, but I know a great deal."

Seeing that he couldn't quite convince God King Jiang Taixu and the Great Saint, Zhang Xuan brought out another trump card.

"What?"

As soon as these words were spoken, both of their eyes went wide.

The Seven Forbidden Zones of the Eastern Wasteland had been the most terrifying places since ancient times, always a nightmare lingering in the hearts of all cultivators.

"Hmm?"

Just as Zhang Xuan was about to speak, the void before him fluctuated silently, and then Jizi emerged from within.

What made Zhang Xuan raise an eyebrow was that Jizi had actually succeeded in Severing the Dao, becoming a Severing Dao King.

Although he had only just stepped onto this level and had not yet reached the peak, he was already leading his peers at this time.

Zhang Xuan was somewhat surprised by Jizi's cultivation speed; as an Emperor Son, Jizi's talent and potential were naturally top-tier, and with the support of the Strongest Bloodline Evolution Fluid, he had already reached the peak of the Immortal Second Realm quickly, but succeeding in Severing the Dao in such a short time was still somewhat unexpected.

After all, throughout history, no one had found it easy to cross this threshold; several Ancient Great Emperors had nearly died when they passed this stage in their youth.

Seeing Zhang Xuan looking at him, Jizi nodded slightly: "I had already considered what path I would take back then; now I am merely putting my ideals into practice. As for the accumulation of cultivation realms in the early stages, it is not too difficult as long as one reaches the point of crossing this threshold."

Zhang Xuan nodded slightly and continued the previous topic: "The Ancient Race has intricate connections with the Taichu Ancient Mine within the Seven Forbidden Zones of the Eastern Wasteland. If we can push the Ancient Race to a certain extent, forcing them to go deep into the Taichu Ancient Mine...

"And lure out a Supreme sealed within, then hundreds of years later, when the Immortal Path opens, perhaps things will be much easier."

Zhang Xuan's tone was not high, but when the few people present heard it, it was as if thunder had exploded in their ears.

Even Jiang Taixu, who was always bold and magnanimous, felt a shock in his heart and felt somewhat faint.

As a figure from a Desolate Ancient Family, he knew exactly what kind of characters stayed within the Seven Forbidden Zones; they were the most powerful figures throughout history, and any one of them walking out could be invincible in the Universe. Except for the appearance of an Ancient Great Emperor, no one in heaven or on earth was their match.

And Zhang Xuan, here and now, was actually plotting to target them.

"I'm afraid we can't do it."

God King Jiang Taixu spoke these words with great difficulty; he did not want to admit it, but the facts were just so.

The further one advanced on the path of cultivation, the more one could understand the power of an Ancient Great Emperor, and the more one could understand how terrifying the Supremes who had Slashed Their Own Blades in those zones were.

They were truly invincible in the world; every one of them had once ruled the entire Universe, and their existence represented invincibility.

Jizi, who had just appeared, also had his expression change constantly; he was moved, and a strange color flashed in his eyes.

As the direct descendant of a Great Emperor, he knew more and understood more clearly.

When his father was alive, all Seven Forbidden Zones of the Eastern Wasteland had shown signs of unrest.

That was known as the most difficult and painful era; his father clearly possessed an Undying Divine Medicine, yet he only lived for one lifetime.

If he could, Jizi would have loved to charge into the Forbidden Zones and slay the Supremes within, but he also clearly knew that with his strength and realm, he was far from qualified.

"I'm afraid we can't do it!"

Jizi also spoke, his words difficult, clearly suppressing many emotions: "And if we trigger them and no one can suppress them, it might cause the Dark Turmoil to erupt early; that would truly be tearing the heavens apart."

"There are only a few hundred years left until the Immortal Path opens; I think the other side will maintain a considerable degree of restraint. Even if someone cannot hold back, it is only possible for one or two to emerge.

"If we can trigger it early, it would actually be a good thing given our current situation; killing one more now means one less during the Dark Turmoil."

Jizi was tempted, but he still shook his head firmly.

"It's very difficult, almost impossible to achieve; they are too strong."

"But I think it is quite feasible. Senior Gai Jiuyou's blood and energy are currently at their peak state; in his condition, if he were to fight a Supreme who has Slashed Their Own Blade head-on, there is a great hope."

Once these words were spoken, the three people present all showed expressions of bewilderment. Even though their identities, origins, and backgrounds were astonishing, they did not believe that a figure like Gai Jiuyou could fight a Supreme to the death.

"There are basically no such figures in historical records; unless there is a Great Accomplishment Saint Body, otherwise it is very difficult."

The Cai Family Great Saint also shook his head; he knew Gai Jiuyou was astonishingly strong, terrifying to the extreme, but he did not think Gai Jiuyou could fight a Supreme to the death. He had never heard of such a figure in history.

The more they listened to Zhang Xuan, the more they disagreed; this was completely pulling chestnuts from the fire, walking on the edge of a blade.

Yet, at this moment, Zhang Xuan instead revealed a smile: "A Great Accomplishment Saint Body is not impossible. If you are truly certain you can lure out a Supreme from the Forbidden Zones, I can find you a peak Great Accomplishment Saint Body."

"What?"

The few people present felt they had never received as much shock and surprise in their entire lives as they had today.

"Aren't all Great Accomplishment Saint Bodies already dead? The only Saint Body currently alive hasn't even entered the Immortal Embryo Realm. Could it be that you can make a Saint Body reach Great Accomplishment in a short time?

"Even if you refine the Nine-Turn Strongest Bloodline Evolution Fluid, there is no such possibility; at most, it would allow the Saint Body to step into the Quasi-Emperor Realm early, it is impossible to make the Saint Body reach Great Accomplishment."

The Cai Family Great Saint shook his head, but upon hearing Zhang Xuan's words, a sense of hope inexplicably arose in his heart.

Since Zhang Xuan appeared, various situations had changed; the things Zhang Xuan promised had always succeeded, and he had never said anything that didn't come to pass.

Whether it was the Strongest Bloodline Evolution Fluid or the remnant of the Nine-Turn Immortal Pill, every step of Zhang Xuan's promises had been successfully realized.

Facing the shock of the few, Zhang Xuan softly revealed a earth-shattering piece of news.

"I know of a Great Accomplishment Saint Body that is still alive, only the state is very poor, in a muddled stage, and the blood and energy have already decayed to the limit."

"Is there really a Saint Body still alive? Which one of those nine Saint Bodies that were invincible in heaven and on earth in ancient times is it?"

God King Jiang Taixu was shocked, and even Jizi's eyes were shining, but they soon dimmed again.

"Can he really fight a Supreme in such a state?"

Several people all shook their heads.

Zhang Xuan, however, chuckled and said, "Are you not curious? The many residual Nine-Turn Immortal Pills in my hands were all refined by me back then, but have you not considered my alchemy skills? Do you have so little confidence in me?"

God King Jiang Taixu was stunned for a moment, then suddenly widened his eyes: "You mean?"

Zhang Xuan raised his hand, and the shell of a pill he had previously refined was held in his hand.

Just during the time they were chatting, he had placed the shell of this pill into the Shenmu World, frantically extracting the Immortal Substance collected from the spiritual herbs in the Plantation, and then fiercely replenished it with Immortal Substance from within the Shenmu World.

He estimated that this wave of Immortal Substance could extend a person's lifespan by three thousand years.

It was even more special than the Nine-Turn Immortal Pill, which was claimed to be able to extend the peak imperial lifespan by two thousand years.

"This..."

The Cai Family Great Saint stared at the plain-looking pill in Zhang Xuan's hand, his eyes filled with immense shock; he tried to reach out to touch it, but pulled his hand back halfway.

"Is this... is this the legendary Nine-Turn Immortal Pill refined by the Emperor in the Mythological Era?"

"It is worthy of being a complete Nine-Turn Immortal Pill, without any spiritual light blooming at all, looking as if it were refined from the most ordinary spiritual herbs, yet internally it contains an extremely dense amount of Immortal Substance."

"I never expected that in my lifetime, I would actually be able to see a complete Nine-Turn Immortal Pill."

The Cai Family Great Saint's eyes were full of shock, and God King Jiang Taixu also stared at the plain-looking Nine-Turn Immortal Pill in Zhang Xuan's hand, unable to help but softly mutter: "According to the classics passed down from the Mythological Era, the true Nine-Turn Immortal Pill is recorded as having extremely dense spiritual energy and containing the most peculiar substances; once it appears, it can harmonize with the Great Dao of heaven and earth. Looking at it now, that record is completely false, fabricated by others. The true Nine-Turn Immortal Pill is actually so simple and unadorned."

Hearing Jiang Taixu and the Cai Family Great Saint praising him so much, Zhang Xuan felt a little embarrassed inside.

In fact, a true Nine-Turn Immortal Pill should be incomparably miraculous, harmonizing with the Great Dao of heaven and earth, with endless Essence circulating.

But the pirated Nine-Turn Immortal Pill that Zhang Xuan made was just ordinary spiritual herb balls rolled into a lump, then sealed on the outer skin with a powerful array, and frantically injected with Immortal Substance inside.

What stood out was simply brute force; the spiritual herb materials were very simple and useless, only the Immortal Substance inside was real and true.

"If there is a living Human Sacred Body, then this matter can be done. I am willing to take the initiative to lure and challenge the Saint Kings among the Ancient Race!"

God King Jiang Taixu spoke decisively. Once he heard there was a Human Sacred Body, he did not hesitate to be the bait, bearing the risk of a nine-in-ten chance of death.

This was the prestige earned with their lives by the nine great Human Sacred Bodies of the ancient times, who were invincible across heaven and earth.

In the ancient period, the Sacred Body was merely called the Undying Golden Body, considered the most special among many physiques; the name was grand, but it was not considered very special, and it was not called the Human Sacred Body.

Later, nine Human Sacred Bodies appeared one after another, constantly suppressing the Dark Turmoil, fighting with their blood, and only then did they win the common respect of the Human Race, allowing the Undying Golden Body to be called the Human Sacred Body.

That was supreme glory forged with blood and Bone.

To this day, such a belief has been passed down.

The Human Sacred Body might have to fight with their life, but God King Jiang Taixu, who went to fish, also had to take a very big risk.

After all, there were many Great Saints among the Ancient Race; for a Saint King level figure like him to go fishing, a slight carelessness would mean death.

"I will go to the family to request the Void Mirror!"

Jizi was a man of few words, but saying this indicated that he also agreed with Zhang Xuan's idea.

"No need to be so nervous."

Zhang Xuan reached out and pressed down, signaling that everyone did not need to be so nervous.

"This is just a backup; it is better to be prepared. In reality, the situation may be far from reaching that point."

The Cai Family Great Saint silently threw the Seven Tribulations Earth Essence into the Hengyu Furnace, letting the Seven-Turn Bloodline Evolution Fluid in front of him flash with brilliance.

"Refine another portion. I heard that Wei Yi's fellow apprentice still has one more, who is also not dead, and whose strength and realm have also reached an incredible level. Let another Great Saint come."

"Peace talks, peace talks my ass! Fight until the other side doesn't dare to speak!"

The words of the Cai Family Great Saint were not loud, but they made a smile appear on Zhang Xuan's face.

"Then let's prepare like this. First, the younger generation will compete. If any of the older generation makes a move, you will act first."

"You must make the Ancient Race know how formidable we are as much as possible!"

"If possible, try to lure out a Supreme from the Taichu Ancient Mine and let them wake up early."

"As for the awakening of the Human Sacred Body, I will handle that aspect. I can also find a way for the Undying Divine Medicine needed for the Nine-Turn Bloodline Evolution Fluid."

Zhang Xuan thought, and he already had a rough plan in his heart.

Among the Seven Forbidden Zones of the Eastern Wasteland, there were actually only six that were truly threatening.

The Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land had been occupied by the Ruthless Great Emperor years ago, and all the self-sealed Supremes had been cleared out by the Ruthless Great Emperor.

Inside, apart from the Ruthless Great Emperor, there was only one living Human Sacred Body. Because of the Ruthless Great Emperor's special state, that Human Sacred Body had been self-sealed in the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land all along, but they had already reached their later years, their Essence was declining, and their state was very poor.

If the trajectory was not changed, when the Immortal Path opened, this Human Sacred Body would rush out from within and fight head-on with Changsheng Tianzun, who had sealed himself since the Mythological Era and lived until today.

Both would perish together.

That Human Sacred Body truly practiced their philosophy with their life and actions, worthy of the name of the Human Sacred Body.

Zhang Xuan felt that it would be very appropriate to take the newly made complete Nine-Turn Immortal Pill in his hand into the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land and feed it to that Human Sacred Body.

"Of course, I cannot go directly. The Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land is still too dangerous, and the state of the Ruthless Great Emperor is still incomprehensible."

Zhang Xuan touched the Immortal Treasure Map in his bosom that no longer flashed with any brilliance, and a smile could not help but appear on his face.
