Chapter 317: The Supremes Stir, the Secret of Becoming an Immortal
This was the most earth-shattering scene.
It was as if, in ancient myths and legends, Hou Yi had fired an arrow at the sun in the sky, intending to shoot it down.
The invincible Ancient Emperor hung himself upon that peerless power, using that power as the vanguard and arrowhead, while he acted as the arrow shaft, charging together toward this Shi Jie.
The Ancient Emperors and Supremes within the Forbidden Zones could no longer sit still upon seeing this scene.
They did not care about the life or death of Shi Huang.
But Shi Huang could be called the first person in history to go to the Immortal Realm and then return by relying on that supreme power.
Everyone wanted to know the specific situation of the Immortal Realm and wanted to understand the secrets of the Immortal Realm.
At the same time, they could all see that Shi Huang had paid a great price in this process; his whole body was covered in blood, his Heaven Desolation Halberd was cracked, yet he still gritted his teeth, clutching a piece of a Stone Tablet in his arms.
That figure in the Immortal Domain, suspected to be a True Immortal, glanced over here but did not follow.
They merely turned their head calmly and fixed their gaze on other figures within the Immortal Domain.
Although they did not speak, everyone seemed to be able to feel the contempt and disdain of that peerless figure.
It did not even require careful calculation for the many Ancient Emperors and Supremes to feel that the most terrifying power was unable to open the connection between Beidou and the Immortal Domain world.
That power was indeed incredibly formidable; the distance between worlds was leveled, spanning a supreme distance.
But because it spanned too far, and that supreme figure had not truly exerted their strength, this power would strike the passage between Beidou and the Immortal Domain as it had before, vibrating the sky with dust, yet ultimately unable to cross over.
It was just like the earth-shattering sound of the war drums from before.
If Shi Huang had been willing to wait for the third or fourth roar, perhaps the passage between the worlds would have torn open at that time.
But Shi Huang could no longer hold on; that figure suspected to be at the True Immortal level forced him to take the risk prematurely.
Although such a risk was basically the same as waiting for death.
He had rushed to the periphery of the world barrier, but with Shi Huang's power in his severely wounded state, he absolutely could not tear through the barrier.
Shi Huang was gambling.
But the Ancient Emperors and Supremes in the Forbidden Zones were truly hesitating, because they saw Shi Huang lift that tablet inscribed with golden characters with all his might.
Just by taking a single look, many figures felt a sense of intoxication.
The scripture of the Amitabha Great Emperor's path to becoming an Immortal.
The secrets regarding the Immortal Domain that Shi Huang understood.
There was no need to spend much time judging; seeing that Shi Huang had already crossed to the very front, but that the power was growing weaker and weaker, someone finally could not hold back and rushed out.
A supreme fluctuation stirred within the Undying Mountain; a peerless figure emerged, and in the shortest possible time, raised their power to the absolute peak. When they rushed out, a supreme strike was already brewing.
It bombarded the layer of the world barrier outside the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land that seemed to have become transparent.
Even their mouth was roaring.
"The secret method of becoming an Immortal, the secrets of the Immortal Realm, this is our only chance, we cannot miss it!"
"You missed the chance to become an Immortal just now, and now someone has returned with the secrets of becoming an Immortal; are you still going to endure and wait?"
A Phoenix Wing Gilded Tang carrying endless radiance also vibrated upon hearing these words, carving out the most terrifying arc as it bombarded that area.
At the same time, an extremely intense spiritual intent was spreading.
"If we cannot open this path at this very moment and Shi Huang is stuck there, then everything will be lost!"
A third peerless radiance flashed, the light soaring into the sky, surpassing everything.
Then, in the shortest time, they made their judgment and calculation; the most brilliant light struck the world barrier, and at its weakest point.
It was precisely when they made the same move that Shi Huang and that silent power collided with the world barrier; originally, it could not be pierced or broken through.
But by chance, encountering the power of three peerless Ancient Emperors, that force directly tore through this place.
Covered in blood, with even his bones exposed, Shi Huang rushed out clutching that Stone Tablet.
Then, in this most tense moment, he did not immediately flee, but instead backhanded his Heaven Desolation Halberd behind him, and instantly the most intense explosion rang out there.
Boundless Hun-tun Qi submerged everything, and the world barrier, supported by one powerful rule after another, rapidly repaired itself.
Many figures could hear the heaviest and most terrifying footsteps coming from the boundless distance, seeing that figure surrounded by endless Hun-tun Qi rushing toward this place at an incredibly fast speed.
That speed was terrifyingly fast, horrific to the extreme.
Boundless power surged between heaven and earth, causing the three Ancient Emperors who had struck to change color.
Fortunately, in the next moment, the world barrier healed at a rapid speed, and as that figure rushed to the edge of the Immortal Domain, due to the interval between the worlds.
They actively stopped their footsteps and did not continue to charge; only a peerless fist light rushed out from that area.
"That is?"
The most terrifying fist light slammed into the world barrier, as if an ancient God were beating a drum using heaven and earth as the drumhead.
The entire heaven and earth, and perhaps even the entire Universe, trembled.
Shi Huang struggled to stand up; boundless light from the Universe submerged into his body. He was weaker than ever before, yet also more vigorous than ever before.
The gazes of the three Ancient Emperors nearby flickered; among them, some had originally wanted to strike from the shadows, directly kill Shi Huang, and plunder the Stone Tablet in Shi Huang's hands.
But at this moment, they paused slightly, because boundless power was surging around Shi Huang's body; that was the most terrifying power in heaven and earth.
Especially Shi Huang, whose life force was extremely vigorous and youthful at this time, having extended his lifespan by at least several hundred to a thousand years.
There was even a surge of vigorous power flowing within his body; if he finished digesting it, perhaps he could maintain his peak state for even longer.
The hearts of many figures trembled.
Although they had many thoughts and intentions in their hearts, they suppressed them at this moment.
Boom!
It was also at this moment that a golden fist imprint appeared before them, slamming into the world barrier, its knuckles distinct.
Shi Huang looked on, also slightly moved, and then softly spat out five words: "Six Paths of Reincarnation Fist!"
The expressions of the three Ancient Emperors also fluctuated slightly; they had once explored the Immortal Path and had a certain understanding of it.
More importantly, there was a Stone Tablet in the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land, suspected to have been taken out from the Immortal Realm.
The Stone Tablet is engraved with the complete Six Paths of Reincarnation Fist, and there has always been speculation that the Six Paths of Reincarnation Fist should be a technique from the Immortal Domain.
Now, seeing a figure from within the Immortal Domain unleash such a supreme technique, many figures have their own suspicions.
Some figures have changing expressions as they look toward Shi Huang, but Shi Huang does not answer immediately.
Instead, he stands in place, and boundless Heaven and Earth Essence flows from between the stars of the Universe, merging into his body.
That kind of Essence is boundlessly vast, and infinitely wide.
The three Ancient Emperors and Supremes who took action are slightly shaken, because Shi Huang is even more domineering and terrifying than before he entered the Immortal Domain.
The power within his body is far stronger and far more terrifying than before.
Although the time spent in the Immortal Domain does not seem very long, and he even escaped after being suppressed by a terrifying enemy, his realm and strength have not suffered the slightest deficiency, and are even stronger.
The shortcomings of his lifespan have been replenished, and he is faintly in a state of recovering to his peak or even taking a step further.
Among them, the gaze of the Ancient Emperor originating from Undying Mountain flickers; he can feel that the spiritual light of Shi Huang's Sendai is even more rounded and complete.
Originally, one should have waited for Shi Huang to recover completely before anyone asked questions, but at this moment, a Supreme originating from Lunhui Zhidi takes action.
With one hand covering the heavens and earth, the Essence of the entire Universe is suddenly cut off; Shi Huang only recovered the surface, while the interior remains in a state of severe injury, unable to continue.
Facing Shi Huang's gaze, this peerless figure says very calmly: "We broke the Immortal Source to take action for you, and the cost was immense, so we also need you to provide sufficient compensation."
He does not hide it at all, staring directly at the Stone Tablet in Shi Huang's hand, and says calmly: "I want the secret to becoming an Immortal, I want the method to become an Immortal!"
This is both a demand and a threat; if Shi Huang does not give it at this time.
He will directly and brazenly take action, intending to swallow Shi Huang's Essence blood while Shi Huang is in a severely injured state, and then take away the Immortal-becoming method that Shi Huang brought back from the Immortal Domain at the cost of his life.
The other two Ancient Emperors and Supremes are slightly silent, but they do not step forward at this time; they neither force him nor offer advice, which already indicates their own attitude.
They also want sufficient rewards.
If Shi Huang is unwilling to give it, they will treat him with indifference; in any case, the most important thing is to get the Immortal-becoming method into their hands, and as for where it was taken from, no one cares.
Those who remain here and have not entered the Immortal Path to venture forth are basically peerless figures who have stirred up Dark Turmoil.
Perhaps they were once very arrogant in their hearts, with no one in heaven or earth worthy of their respect.
They also disdain using any underhanded means, but at this current moment, all their Dao hearts have been destroyed; apart from what can still be considered invincible power, they have nothing.
Originally thinking Shi Huang would submit, Zhang Xuan, who is impersonating Shi Huang, sees such a scene and, instead of being uneasy, sneers.
"Something I obtained at the cost of my life, and you want to take it away with empty words?"
"If you did not actively force me, and were willing to submit to me, I might have considered sharing it with you; since you want to force me, then let us determine who is superior!"
Zhang Xuan is eager to stir up trouble.
He ignores the other two, and amidst the astonished gazes of the three Ancient Emperors and Supremes, he raises his hand and throws a punch.
Furthermore, he directly unleashes the supreme technique from the Forbidden Chapter.
"Sacrificing to Immortals with Divine Blood!"
That is the most forbidden technique, claimed to be able to slaughter True Immortals descending from the heavens.
Now, unleashed at such a moment, it is terrifying beyond compare.
Although that Supreme was on guard, he did not expect Shi Huang to start with such a major move, and the most terrifying one at that, so he is immediately frozen in place.
What is even more terrifying is Shi Huang's grasp of timing, which is perfect to the finest detail.
He was previously in a severely injured state, and in the Immortal Domain, he was beaten into a severe injury by that figure wrapped in endless Chaos Body with just a few moves, which led people to underestimate him.
But at this very moment, erupting here, he displays his truly invincible magic power.
Endless rules seal this area, and then freeze that Ancient Emperor.
The purest Origin is frozen in an instant, revealing the true appearance of this Ancient Emperor; he is actually the White Tiger, one of the Four Great Holy Spirits of heaven and earth.
At this moment, he transforms into his primordial spirit and lets out a roar that shakes the heavens and earth.
The heavens and earth seem to be torn apart, yet he is still unable to escape the restraint; the purest light of flying Immortals and the power of Origin freeze him, causing his flesh and blood to evaporate, his bone marrow to wither, and even his Origin to be consumed.
The other two Ancient Emperors and Supremes are shocked, not expecting Shi Huang to be so domineering even in a weakened state.
At the same time, they did not expect that Shi Huang could display such strong strength while severely injured, and was completely in the realm of Extreme Sublimation.
Previously they were not discovered, and only now do they discover the mystery within this.
Shi Huang's state is strong to the point of being invincible, terrifying beyond compare.
He is the most formidable and terrifying figure between heaven and earth.
At this time, they want to take action to prevent this fellow Supreme from dying, but they are stared at by Shi Huang's cold gaze; he speaks while attacking that supreme figure.
"Any figure who has shown me kindness, I will reward normally, but any figure who wants to target me, I will also give a reward!"
He does not say much more, simply standing that Stone Tablet to one side.
Such words, combined with the Essence blood boiling to the extreme within his body, make the two Ancient Emperors hesitate, and they do not take action immediately.
And in this moment of hesitation, the White Tiger, one of the Four Great Holy Spirits, is already roaring, and its body is exploding.
Shi Huang is terrifying to the extreme; while multitasking to converse with others, his movements are not slow at all, and a whole set of combos is extremely smooth.
This White Tiger fell into a disadvantage first, and then was completely beaten up.
In an instant, thousands of moves merged into one, pinning the White Tiger in that area, and then layer upon layer of terrifying power attacked, tearing the White Tiger's physical body apart and shattering its primordial spirit.
Even the White Tiger wanted to perform Extreme Sublimation, but before it could finish, it revealed a flaw midway; in an instant, a lapse appeared, and it was shattered by one set of combos after another.
A second terrifying beating occurred.
Boundlessly terrifying power, round after round, tears the White Tiger's body until blood flows, and that sacrifice is still ongoing; the terrifying sacrifice is like praying to the heavens, and also like offering to Shi Huang himself.
Clusters of mysterious Origin merge into the void and disappear; vaguely, it seems to be communicating with the Immortal Domain.
"Are you still not taking action to stop him? Later, when he picks you off one by one, my fate today will be your fate tomorrow."
The White Tiger screams, but the other two Ancient Emperors and Supremes remain silent, not saying a word.
Then they watch him being shattered, and right here, a peak Ancient Emperor is beaten to death just like that; the world is silent!
