My Immortal Cultivation Game Life-Chapter 748 - 352: The Missing Immortal Kings and Immortal Emperors_2
Chapter 748 -352: The Missing Immortal Kings and Immortal Emperors_2
Hearing this, the eyes of Lu Yi and the four Liu Ningshuang people lit up as they all turned to look at the pale red silhouette.
“You know the reason? What exactly is the reason?”
The pale red silhouette looked at Lu Yi and chuckled lightly, “Didn’t the young friend just ask me how those Immortal Kings and Immortal Emperors went missing?”
Upon hearing this, Lu Yi was startled, “Could it be that these two matters are related?”
“Of course, they are related.” The pale red silhouette said indifferently as if reminiscing, “Back then, my original body left behind a Residual Shadow of its power, while it itself joined a war, the great battle between the real universe and Jiuyou. Initially, when Jiuyou just began to erode the real universe, due to the presence of nine Immortal Emperors and numerous Immortal Kings, the real universe actually had a slight advantage. However, because the Jiuyou Qi was too infectious, the situation got worse and worse. Eventually, as Jiuyou eroded a broader expanse of the universe, there was no choice but for the nine Immortal Emperors and a group of Immortal Kings to decide to enter Jiuyou and combat the Jiuyou Demons there. This was because when the Jiuyou Demons entered the real universe, they merely projected their powers with the sole purpose of spreading the Jiuyou Qi. To completely annihilate the Jiuyou Demons, one could only enter Jiuyou and kill every last one of their true forms.”
Lu Yi and the four Liu Ningshuang listened calmly to the recollections of the pale red silhouette. When it paused, Lu Yi couldn’t help but ask, “What happened afterward?”
“Afterward? Hehe, my real body didn’t know whether this journey would bring fortune or doom, so it left me and the Golden Flame Ring here, and it created a small cosmic area, leaving behind inheritance. Just in case… just in case my real body perished, his legacy would not be severed,” said the pale red silhouette calmly.
Lu Yi and the four Liu Ningshuang fell somewhat silent. They exchanged looks, eyes flickering, faces showing complex expressions.
“So, those Immortal Kings and Immortal Emperors disappeared because they all entered Jiuyou, and not one returned?” Yun Xi’s ethereal voice sounded.
The statement sent shivers down the spines of Lu Yi and the others.
Those were all the Immortal Kings and Immortal Emperors of the entire universe, the pinnacle of strength across the cosmos.
They entered Jiuyou, and not a single one returned?
Jiuyou must be terrifying beyond measure.
The pale red silhouette nodded slightly, “I’m afraid that’s the case. They entered Jiuyou intending to destroy it completely. But now it seems they failed.”
Seeing the grim expressions on the faces of Lu Yi and the others, the pale red silhouette chuckled, “Don’t worry too much, they probably haven’t fully failed.”
This caught Lu Yi and the others off guard.
Then their eyes lit up, and Jian Ruyu said, “Senior, are you suggesting that the reason why Jiuyou doesn’t seem strong now is also because of the battle back then?”
“Exactly. Jiuyou and the real universe are one dark and one light, originating from the same source. The difference in strength shouldn’t be unimaginably vast. Back then, all the Immortal Kings and Immortal Emperors of the universe took part in that battle. Even if Jiuyou managed to win, it was probably a pyrrhic victory. A massive upheaval must have occurred in Jiuyou; otherwise, with its strength at the time, a universe that only had Immortal Venerates would have been unable to resist Jiuyou’s invasion. It would have been completely devoured within years,” the pale red silhouette shared its speculation.
Lu Yi and the others arrived at the same conjecture.
And it allowed them to breathe slightly easier.
But they hadn’t completely relaxed.
Not knowing the true strength of Jiuyou, they probably wouldn’t have been too concerned, but now that they knew how formidable Jiuyou was, that even so many Immortal Kings and Immortal Emperors were deployed and still failed to annihilate Jiuyou, without a single one returning.
Even if Jiuyou was also seriously injured at the moment, what if it recovered? Would the current universe be able to withstand it?
They probably couldn’t resist at all.
A chill ran through Lu Yi’s heart.
Fearlessness stems from ignorance. Knowing the strength of Jiuyou, they really couldn’t be at ease.
At that moment, Lu Yi and the others felt as if a shadow had been cast over their hearts.
Seeing Lu Yi and the others in silence, the pale red silhouette didn’t rush them, also falling into silence.
The pale red silhouette had been waiting here for who knows how many years, not expecting to receive such news in the end.
Within the vast crimson space, the atmosphere was somewhat silent.
A moment later, Lu Yi recovered and lightly chuckled, “Senior, thank you for sharing all of this with us. Otherwise, we might never have realized how terrifying Jiuyou truly is.”
Although Lu Yi had previously tried to overestimate Jiuyou, he never imagined he had still underestimated it so drastically.
That Jiuyou had kept nine Immortal Emperors and numerous Immortal Kings there, even if Lu Yi advanced to an Immortal King, he probably wouldn’t be able to settle it.
If Lu Yi were to break through to the Immortal Emperor, with his foundations, he would certainly be much stronger than the average Immortal Emperor. At that time, I wonder if he could level Jiuyou?
Perhaps, it would be difficult for him alone to achieve such a goal.
The more powerhouses, the better, after all.
Lu Yi felt somewhat sentimental inside.
It would be best if Jiuyou recovered later rather than sooner.
The Residual Shadow shook its head and then spoke, “Now that I have answered the young friend’s questions, it is time for the young friend to answer mine.”
Lu Yi answered with a smile, “Of course, Senior may ask.”
The Residual Shadow fell silent for a moment, seemingly organizing its thoughts, and then with a smile said, “Actually, most of what I wanted to ask has been answered in our earlier conversation, but I still have some doubts. You must have received the inheritance of the Fate Immortal King, haven’t you? Haven’t you ever met the Fate Immortal King?”
“Fate Immortal King?”
Hearing this name, Lu Yi’s pupils constricted, and he immediately thought of the time when he explored the Abyss Ruins in the Crystal Spirit Battlefield, the strong being who had escaped the ruins. At that time, he had mentioned the words ‘Fate Immortal King’.
This was what Yu Hanguang had told him back then; if it wasn’t for the Residual Shadow’s mention now, he would have long since forgotten it.
Now, hearing these four words again, Lu Yi began to recall the past.
The Residual Shadow assumed he had received the inheritance of the Fate Immortal King because he practiced the Secret Technique of Destiny?
Yet, the Secret Technique of Destiny was initially brought out of the Abyss Ruins by the Yu Family Ancestor, and he had merely obtained this secret technique from the Yu Family. Through this technique, Lu Yi had even mastered the Perfect Level Destiny Law.
It seemed, then, that the Abyss Ruins could very well be the Inheritance Land left by the Fate Immortal King?
However, the Abyss Ruins were a well-known Cosmic Forbidden Zone— if it was really the Inheritance Land left by the Fate Immortal King, it would be far too dangerous.
Just make a comparison with this place.
This Small World is also the Inheritance Land left by an Immortal King, but apart from some Immortal Beasts which are a bit troublesome, this place is only a bit hot and not at all too dangerous.
Why is there such a vast difference?
Additionally, what concerned Lu Yi the most was, if the Abyss Ruins truly were the Inheritance Land left by the Fate Immortal King, then why did that Jiuyou Cultivator lead so many people into the Abyss Ruins previously?
Lu Yi could not understand.
He hesitated for a moment and then said, “Senior, the Secret Technique of Destiny I practice was obtained from a Cosmic Forbidden Zone. As for who it originated from, I do not know.”
“Obtained the Secret Technique of Destiny from a Cosmic Forbidden Zone?” The Residual Shadow clearly didn’t expect Lu Yi to say such a thing, pausing in surprise, then with a slightly peculiar expression looked at Lu Yi: “Are you saying… you merely relied on a secret technique to comprehend a Perfect Level Law by yourself and even reached a point where you can communicate with the Tao and see through destiny?”
Lu Yi nodded somewhat sheepishly, “Indeed, no one taught me this Secret Technique of Destiny.”
Frankly, one of Lu Yi’s masters got completely tricked; she is now weaker than him despite practicing the same secret technique and has to ask him for advice on how to practice it.
Lu Yi is now confused about who actually is the master.
He even felt that maybe he should have someone call him ‘Master’ instead.
The Residual Shadow: “…”
It looked at the somewhat shy Lu Yi with a numb expression, thinking, “What the hell?”
To merely rely on one secret technique to comprehend such a profound Law—what kind of monster is this?!
Even though his true form was an Immortal King, the Residual Shadow was shocked.
Did any of those nine possess such talent?
This is without a doubt the bearing of an Immortal Emperor!
