356. Chapter 346: The Daily Life of an Immortal King

The divine power left behind by the deceased Ancestor Dragon still remains there, dyed into a boundless golden ocean.

The entire Long Dao is surrounded and enclosed; outsiders have no way to set foot on this mysterious land.

After any figure arrives on Long Dao, they have no way to break through to the Demigod stage, which is the Imperial Sky Realm.

No matter how powerful the race, even if they have already reached the Longevity Realm, they will have their divine sense obscured and turn into beasts upon landing here.

It was precisely because of this characteristic that Zhang Xuan specifically boarded Long Dao back then.

Because there are no top-tier figures in this world, he could wantonly practice the Swallowing Heaven Demonic Art on Long Dao, using this opportunistic power to grow rapidly.

After all, while the power of the figures on Long Dao is not very strong, their Origin is terrifyingly robust; the Origin of the descendants of the Dragon King is not even inferior to a Great Emperor.

Now, revisiting this old place, Zhang Xuan remains calm and at ease.

Long Dao is still primitive and wild, with only many members of the Dragon Race living freely within it; even if they are suppressed and cannot manifest their wisdom, divine abilities, or magic power, they remain the kings of this land.

Zhang Xuan did not interfere too much.

He simply walked directly toward the deepest part of Long Dao; even the Heavenly Stele on Long Dao had no way to suppress him at this moment.

He already stands at the very pinnacle of heaven and earth; all problems are no trouble to him.

Walking all the way, he arrived calmly and without worry before that Heavenly Stele, and then Zhang Xuan stepped inside, following that path directly toward the Si Wang Shi Jie.

Only the dead can live in such a world, but today Zhang Xuan successfully walked into that world in the guise of a living person; the world is boundless, vast, and incredibly wide.

Yet it lacks vitality; the entire world is in decay, and as far as the eye can see, the boundless world is filled with layers upon layers of Bone.

There is even bone powder formed after the bones were crushed, scattered evenly across the land.

Throughout the ages, no one knows how many figures have died; this place seems to be the destination of all things, the place where everything ends.

Only ghostly green will-o'-the-wisps flicker within this world, with faint light flowing.

Occasionally, one or two psychic bones walk and shuttle across the land.

This is the Si Wang Shi Jie, the end of all life.

But within the boundless death, there is also the opportunity for life; if one can thoroughly comprehend the mystery of life and death here, one can turn from death to life.

According to Legend, one of the ancestors of the Nine Provinces Human Race who had long since died, Nuwa, once died and was reborn in this place, stepping onto a truly unique path.

Zhang Xuan gazed at this boundless land; in the depths of this world, at its very core, one Black Death City after another floated there.

I still remember that when Zhang Xuan first boarded Long Dao, he was terrified by such a scene and wished he could escape immediately; when he first boarded Long Dao, these death cities were also a boundless shadow in his heart.

Now, looking at those towering Black Death Cities, Zhang Xuan instead feels a different kind of pleasant surprise.

Those are supreme existences who were above the True Immortal Realm, attempted to break through, failed, and met death.

Such existences are top-tier in any heaven, earth, or world, and only against the concept and background of the Chang Sheng Jie can they stand here one after another like cabbages on the side of the street.

Even so, these death cities have accumulated over hundreds of millions of years.

These are all the precious essence left behind by this world after accumulating for countless years; of course, it is the essence of failure.

"Sigh, I am still as thrifty as I was back then, picking up scraps everywhere!"

Zhang Xuan could not help but sigh; he is still that same youth from before, without the slightest change.

It is just like going up to Sheng Ya to utilize the corpse of the deceased Great Accomplishment Saint Body, to go into the Wheel Sea of the Heavenly Venerable, and absorb the Origin of the Cang Tian Tyrant Body and other supreme Divine Bodies.

Those were already corpses that became the most solid foundation on his path to becoming the strongest.

Now that he is already above the Immortal King Realm, he still does not forget his original intention and continues to pick up these waste materials that others do not use much.

It can be said that he is quite diligent and thrifty.

Quietly walking onto a death city, he felt the dead, silent brilliance and dim light inside.

With a point of Zhang Xuan's fingertip, this death city disappeared silently.

And in an instant, the Nine Heavens and Shi Di gained a pitch-black death city the size of a mountain.

Just under Zhang Xuan's will, he squeezed all the Essence and Origin of this death city clean.

The vigorous life vitality spread in all directions, centered on where Zhang Xuan was.

And the sturdy, immortal death city left behind in the end was transformed by Zhang Xuan with supreme great magic power into a brick, built into the Heavenly Court he was constructing, becoming a foundation stone.

Such movements were smooth and joyful, very stable, moving forward all the way without pause.

In just a short time, Zhang Xuan had already collected five death cities, none of which had any personnel inside.

Such massive death cities are impossible for others to digest or use.

Figures below the Ancestor God realm cannot digest them, and those above the Ancestor God realm who have successfully become Stone Man Kings find these useless when they look at them.

It can be said that Zhang Xuan has done a very good job of recycling trash.

He has played an exemplary leading role in the recycling and reuse of heaven and earth energy.

Zhang Xuan feels quite good about this; after all, he is helping the great cycle of heaven and earth.

He is letting energy that could not be used originally be utilized once again.

These powerhouses who have stepped onto the path of the Stone Man King are all the top figures between heaven and earth.

If one were to compare, they are roughly at the stage from the peak of the True Immortal Realm to the Immortal King Realm; unfortunately, this stage is also the biggest and most difficult obstacle on the path of cultivation, at least on the path of cultivation in the Chang Sheng Jie world.

Throughout the ages, very few people have been able to cross this threshold.

For the vast majority of people, this path cannot be walked to the end at all; it is too difficult and too terrifying.

This also conforms to the situation of the entire Cultivation World; even in the Perfect World, wanting to break through from the True Immortal Realm to the Immortal King Realm is equally incomparably difficult.

Throughout the ages, no one knows how many people have been stuck.

In that era, such people were a dime a dozen, but the method of breakthrough in the Chang Sheng Jie is quite peculiar; if the breakthrough fails, one becomes a death city, standing quietly here, much like a dead person.

Those who have not reached the Stone Man King realm cannot break such ancient cities, and those who have reached it do not care about such ancient cities.

Only a freak like Zhang Xuan, whose personal strength and realm are connected to heaven and earth, would be very interested in such ancient cities.

One death city after another disappeared silently between heaven and earth; some figures noticed this, but most did not care.

Heaven knows how many cities have accumulated over countless years within the Si Wang Shi Jie.

The quantity is nearly infinite; if a few collapse or disappear occasionally, not many people care, as they have more important things to worry about.

With that time, wouldn't it be better to cultivate more and accumulate a bit more power?

Only in the Chat Group was Xiao Chen extremely excited to hear that Zhang Xuan was coming to his world to wander and travel; he was simply excited beyond words.

Then, upon hearing that Zhang Xuan was still roaming within the Si Wang Shi Jie, he was a bit speechless; he didn't even know where the gate to the Si Wang Shi Jie opened.

He was still struggling to survive within the Chang Sheng Jie.

Zhang Xuan did not mind.

The Si Wang Shi Jie he selected in this expanse of heaven and earth had all undergone a certain degree of screening.

They were all places where the figures inside the Dead City basically had no living aura, or only a tiny bit of aura, which already proved that they had met with total failure on the path of the Stone Man King.

Only then would he take action; he would not move against anyone who had a hope of success.

But looking around, they were basically all failures; throughout history, very few have been able to walk this path to the end.

As for whether acting so arrogantly would attract the attention of others, Zhang Xuan indicated there was no need to worry at all.

Between this heaven and earth, because top-tier predecessors of the Human Race like Pangu and Nuwa had been working hard, the heaven and earth had undergone fundamental changes.

The Stone Man King realm was the peak that everyone could reach in their cultivation; if one continued to break through above this realm, not only would it not make their strength stronger, but it would instead lead them step by step toward self-destruction.

This heaven and earth could fundamentally no longer accommodate supreme figures above the Stone Man King realm.

In other words, Zhang Xuan was the ceiling of the entire heaven and earth, the limit of limits.

And the domain of the Immortal King was already on par with the Stone Man King.

In terms of individual attack power and combat capability, Zhang Xuan considered himself no worse than any Stone Man King.

He didn't need to worry at all about those in the Si Wang Shi Jie who hadn't walked this path to the end.

And in the entire heaven and earth, apart from the Primordial Heavenly Realm which had Stone Man Kings who had walked this path to the end, the only other areas with supreme figures were the Foreign Realm, which was constantly experimenting with the Chang Sheng Jie.

Zhang Xuan did not intend to go directly to these two areas.

Therefore, he had no major connection or relationship with these figures; walking in the Si Wang Shi Jie could be said to be a smooth path, and occasionally, peerless figures who saw Zhang Xuan would immediately turn around and run, not daring to stop at all.

After all, the strongest figures living and walking in the Si Wang Shi Jie were only the Death Monarchs.

Occasionally having one or two monarchs walking between this heaven and earth was already a very shocking matter.

But Zhang Xuan was already above everyone's realm; seeing Zhang Xuan, they had to worry about being beaten to death by him, rather than worrying about anything else.

"Sigh, although recovering this kind of energy is very comfortable, and every one of them is a figure above the True Immortal realm, it is very fulfilling.

"But compared to finding the body of a Great Accomplishment Saint Body just after stepping onto the path of cultivation in the Zhetian World, it is much worse; it's not as exciting!"

Zhang Xuan couldn't help but sigh; nowadays, the energy possessed by any Dead City was countless times higher than the body of a Great Accomplishment Saint Body.

But this kind of action and behavior, where one could pick up a Dead City without any illness or disaster and without worrying about anything, was actually less exciting.

"It's a bit too dull, it makes one lose motivation!"

Of course, despite this sigh, Zhang Xuan, who had already picked up dozens of cities in the blink of an eye, still felt that both his physical strength and his primordial spirit were a notch stronger than before.

For powerful existences above the True Immortal realm and below the Immortal King realm, squeezing out all their energy and feeding it back to the heaven and earth was an unimaginable feedback and reward for the heaven and earth.

On the Sin Province of the Nine Heavens and Shi Di, even Liu Shen was eating with great relish.

After all, such powerful and vast Origin, along with related power, had a very great effect on a figure like her who was in a growth and development period.

Not only them, but top-tier geniuses like the True Dragon, Meng Tianzheng, and the Heavenly Horned Ant were all full of curiosity about this place.

In the end, there was a faint feeling of it becoming the center of the Nine Heavens and Shi Di.

Even though this area was neither a place where traditional True Immortals stayed, nor a place where Immortal Kings liked to preach in the past.

But when Zhang Xuan stood here, and when that unique Heavenly Court building complex was constructed, everyone's gaze could not help but look there.

Having that figure there was already the most unique and profound Creation between heaven and earth.

Top-tier figures like Meng Tianzheng, Dugu Baitian, the Demon Lord, the Ghost Lord, and the Human King would all cultivate in that brand-new city.

The only area and zone in the entire Nine Heavens and Shi Di that could provide them with endless Life Essence was this one.

At any time and any place, endless Essence and laws of profound meaning were merging into that location from above the firmament.

The help Zhang Xuan gave to this heaven and earth was truly too great, making this area a land of Creation.

Heaven and earth had no way to record Zhang Xuan's merits, so the place where he stood was the supreme place for enlightenment.

Standing within it, the many rules of heaven and earth would actively open up, pouring into the body in an overwhelming manner.

Shi Hao, Shi Yi, and others were taking off just by staying there.

They crossed multiple small realms of early cultivation in succession, and there was a possibility of taking off at any time.

Of course, they also focused on combat and tempering; they often entered the Ancient Stele left behind by Zhang Xuan to fight to the death with the Great Emperors and Ancient Emperors of their youth at the same realm.

After many battles, they even reached a peculiar and strange conclusion.

Compared to the techniques born from their innate bloodlines, the techniques that those figures tempered and created later were stronger and more suitable, even a notch stronger than their Supreme Treasure Trees.

In terms of technique strength alone, theirs had more advantages, but their casting pre-swing was longer, and it was not as smooth and fluent as the opponent's.

Even though the techniques were weaker than theirs, they could produce better effects.

It forced such geniuses to change in this aspect and no longer rely on innate techniques.

They were all trying to find treasures that could be peerless only through acquired effort, and in Shi Village, there was no lack of these: True Dragon Technique, True Phoenix Technique, Kunpeng Technique, the Heavenly Horned Ant's Power of the Extreme, Thunder Emperor Technique, Willow Deity Technique...

There were too many of the most powerful methods; they could all study and understand them, as long as they passed the relevant assessments.
