Ascension of The Unholy Immortal-Chapter 359: Trinity Palace

The moment the Immortal Fox lady’s slender fingers touched Liang’s forehead, he felt a surge of strange energy coursing through his body, causing his physical form, soul, and spirit to freeze instantaneously. Darkness enveloped his vision, and in that brief moment of sensory deprivation, he felt his consciousness and bloodline source being forcibly extracted from his being. A few heartbeats later, the sensation abruptly ceased, and the suffocating darkness around him began to dissipate.

Regaining his senses, Liang opened his eyes and found himself in a completely unfamiliar environment. It was a boundless expanse, stretching endlessly in all directions, with no discernible boundaries or horizons. A sense of awe washed over him as he realized that he was suspended in a realm that seemed to exist outside the confines of time and space, his connection to his body, soul and even inner universe was cut.

"Impressed?" An ethereal voice echoed through the void sounding both melodious and otherworldly.

Liang’s gaze shifted towards the source of the voice, and his eyes widened in astonishment. Before him stood a figure of ethereal beauty, adorned with an intricate gown that shimmered with iridescent colors. Nine ethereal tails cascaded down her back, each one as delicate and graceful as a wisp of smoke.

Although her true features were obscured by a veil of mist, Liang couldn’t help but feel an inexplicable sense of allure and mystery emanating from her presence.

"Why not take a moment to examine your current state?" The nine-tailed figure suggested before Liang could even ask.

With a flicker of curiosity, Liang turned his attention to his own body and was greeted by a sight that filled him with equal parts surprise and wonder. Instead of his familiar human form, he now found himself enveloped in a swirling vortex of primordial energy—his bloodline source manifested in its purest and most potent form.

"What’s this place?" Liang asked, looking at the woman deeply, believing that she must have a greater purpose than just to show him his true form.

"Look upward," the nine-tailed figure replied enigmatically, her eyes twinkling with amusement.

Liang followed her gaze and gasped in amazement. Suspended high above them in the celestial void was a majestic palace, its spires reaching towards the boundless expanse like grasping fingers , as if carved from a single, flawless crystal. But what truly captivated Liang’s attention were the four colossal pillars that supported the palace at each corner.

These pillars were not made of stone or metal, but of countless bloodline sources, each one pulsating with an unimaginable amount of energy. Liang realized with growing astonishment that these pillars were formed from the combined bloodline sources of countless beings, each one representing a different lineage and heritage.

"This is a special dimension that exists outside the three realms," the nine-tailed figure explained, her voice echoing through the void. "It is a place where beings can only exist in their bloodline source form."

Primal Crucible!

The words flashed through Liang’s mind, a term he had encountered in the ancient texts in the Boundless Void Depository, The Primal Crucible was a legendary domain, said to be the birthplace of all bloodlines and the ultimate crucible where bloodline sources originated.

Noticing Liang’s lack of reaction, the nine-tailed figure chuckled softly. "This place is called The Primal Crucible, although its existence is not entirely a secret, only those who have reached the Celestial step in their cultivation are typically aware of it."

Liang nodded slowly, absorbing this new information. He understood that being brought to such a place was a rare and extraordinary opportunity.

"What of that palace?" Liang asked, his gaze still fixed on the magnificent structure before them.

A hint of pride flickered in the nine-tailed figure’s eyes. "That is the Trinity Palace."

"Trinity Palace?" Liang repeated, the name resonating within him. He had read about the Trinity Palace, a powerful and enigmatic force that wielded influence across countless domains. Even the Infernal Void Emperor, a being at the peak of the Divine step, was said to tread carefully around them.

Across the vast expanse of the infinite domains, cultivators from across the myriad domains embarked on their respective paths of cultivation, their progress measured against the ancient power classification known as the Eternal Bridge.

According to the Eternal Void Emperor knowledge, the Eternal Bridge consisted of five distinct steps: Mundane, Mystical, Celestial, Divine, and Primal.

Liang being from a Mundane level domain, had spent years toiling at the Mundane step. Only by breaking through to the Void Return Realm would he attain the qualifications to stand at the pinnacle of the Mundane step and glimpse the threshold of the Mystical step.

As Liang stood before the enigmatic nine-tailed figure, his heart pounded with a mix of curiosity and trepidation. The Trinity Palace, a power shrouded in mystery, was a place that only True Spirits and Primordial Spirit beings had the privilege of joining.

"Have you heard of the Trinity Palace before ?" the nine-tailed figure inquired, looking at Liang with amusement.

Liang’s lips parted in a slight chuckle and shook his head, "From what Young Miss said, This Trinity Palace should be a force beyond my knowledge, how would I possibly know of its existence ?"

The nine-tailed figure nodded sagely, "Indeed, the Trinity Palace’s fame resonates throughout the upper domains, but for a cultivator from a mundane realm, its existence would probably remain unknown."

Liang’s mind raced with questions as he sought to unravel the purpose of his presence in the Primal Crucible. "May I inquire as to the reason for my the Young Miss brought me here, Is it... because of my bloodline source?"

The nine-tailed figure shook her head gently. "While a bloodline source holds inherent potential, it is but a dormant ember without the proper fuel to ignite its flames. Only when paired with a cultivation technique specifically tailored to its unique energies can one truly unleash their potential and ascend to greatness."

A glimmer of realization dawned upon Liang’s face as he recalled the presence that had observed him while he cultivated at the Immortal Dragon Spring, she was evaluating whether to invite him or not.

"At your level, creating a cultivation technique should be child’s play, Liang mused, his mind racing with thoughts. Why not tailor a perfect technique for each of your followers, bringing them here?

"You may be wondering why I can’t simply craft a suitable technique for each individual and decide who to bring here," the enigmatic nine-tailed figure remarked, her voice even and dispassionate.

Liang’s pulse quickened at her words, a shiver crawling up his spine. Could she truly read minds? He cleared his throat, attempting to mask his unease.

The nine-tailed figure bore into him with her piercing gaze, an intensity that felt like a tangible force. "The little monkey once posed the very same question."

Nodding, Liang absorbed this, his intuition already guiding him toward a deeper understanding. I anticipated some form of trial that would test comprehension, that’s why she waited to see if he would succeed in fusion the three techniques,reasoned silently, poised to hear more from this captivating, yet unnerving, entity.

"The reality is rather straightforward," she resumed. "Once you enter the palace, you will face a critical trial. Fail, and great consequences will await you."

"A great consequence?" Liang asked, an involuntary shudder running through him. "What sort of trial are we discussing?"

Th𝗲 most uptodate novels are published on ƒгeewёbnovel.com.

Her lips curled into a faint smile as she shook her head. "I can’t disclose the specifics. However, I can assure you that your success or failure hinges entirely on your ability to comprehend."

Despite having anticipated this revelation, he feigned surprise. "Then, what kind of consequences are we really facing?"

"Death." The nine-tailed figure’s eyes sparkled coldly.

Liang remained silent, his mind racing. The monkey had succeeded in comprehending the techniques and being admitted to the Trinity Palace. If that was the criterion, why would he, Liang fail?

As if sensing his thoughts, the nine-tailed figure’s gaze pierced into him. "So, what is your decision? Will you enter the palace and face the trail, or will you retreat now and escape the potential consequences?"

Liang’s pulse quickened, but he managed to keep his voice steady. "That’s a great opportunity. Of course, I will not miss it."

A hint of appreciation flickered in the nine-tailed figure’s eyes," Indeed, a meaningful death is more dazzling than a life full of mediocrity and regret."

With a flick of her hand, she formed a hand seal, causing the majestic gates of the Trinity Palace to creak open. "Take your time inside. Remember, the Primal Crucible exists outside the three realms, unaffected by the laws of space and time. Whatever time you spend here will be but a second in the outside world."

Liang nodded solemnly, his eyes fixed on the palace before him. He took a deep breath and stepped across the threshold, disappearing into the depths of the Trinity Palace.

"I wonder if what I’m doing is right," the nine-tailed figure murmured under her breath, watching the palace gates slowly close.
