Chapter 1458: Chapter 1295_3

“No idea yet, how the Watcher managed to leave.”

…

For thousands of years, the Mystic Immortal Boat’s legacy never ceased. Once united, they soon confirmed that the exit from this place was within those Nine Yin Yang Beads.

Having carefully selected one, the Mystic Immortal Boat flew into it.

Upon seeing the endless corpses over the Ice sealed Ocean with their own eyes, the Members of the Immortal Ark still felt an indescribable fear in their hearts.

Inside the Yin Yang Bead, once again far from the Watcher, they could finally communicate through Divine Sense.

...

“Xuanhuang Watcher, why collect so many corpses?”

“It seems to be a mysterious Array Technique here.”

“It appears that the decision made by the ancestor of the Mysterious Merchant back then wasn’t wrong. In the eyes of a True Immortal, Cultivators are no different from livestock.”

…

The members of the Immortal Ark communicated amongst themselves.

“Teacher, about the records discovered by the ancestor of the Mysterious Merchant, they really can’t be found anymore?” Li Fan asked Ai Tianjue through sound transmission.

Li Fan keenly sensed that there had been communications between the head of the Immortal Axis Institute and several Elders of the Broken Immortal Tower just now, hence the question.

A hint of hesitation flashed across Ai Tianjue’s eyes.

Originally, Li Fan was not supposed to know this secret of the Immortal Ark. However, just now, Li Fan had risked his life to scout for the Immortal Ark, ultimately bringing back crucial information.

Calling him the hero that saved the Mystic Immortal Boat was no exaggeration. Thus, there was no need to hide anything anymore.

After consulting with the other Elders and finally obtaining permission, Ai Tianjue then answered: “The chief did not speak idly; indeed, the ancestral teachings are no longer within the Mystic Immortal Boat…”

Li Fan then understood what Ai Tianjue implied: “Not on the Mystic Immortal Boat. Does Teacher mean…”

“On the Merchant Immortal Boat?”

Ai Tianjue nodded: “Back then, the internal strife within the Immortal Boat split it in two. Our Mystic Immortal Boat, though it seized the ‘Hundred Hearings Immortal Record,’ the most important part of those items ended up on the Merchant Immortal Boat.”

With Ai Tianjue’s personality, discussing this matter also brought him a slight regret.

“The most important thing?” Li Fan’s eyes flashed.

“Back then, after the ancestor of the Mysterious Merchant left his homeland, fearing he might be tracked by the Watcher, or even a True Immortal, he drifted in the Star Sea while trying to find a way to completely escape from the True Immortal,” a glint of longing flashed in Ai Tianjue’s eyes.

“It is said that Immortal Laws differ. Even if combining paths, in front of a True Immortal, all are no different from ants. Ordinary methods to escape a True Immortal are nothing more than foolish dreams…”

“But, the ancestor of the Mysterious Merchant indeed did it.”

Li Fan’s eyes revealed a moment of enlightenment: “Immortal Instruments?”

“Correct. And not just that,” Ai Tianjue said somewhat melancholically.

“You also know that in ancient times, some from the Immortal Cultivation World had particularly close connections with the Upper World. As time passed, some Immortal Instruments were scattered everywhere. The Mystic Commerce Immortal Vessel traveled through the Star Sea, collecting Immortal Instruments. And also, trying to decipher the power of Immortal Instruments, making it their own…”

“Back then, they certainly achieved certain results. Unfortunately, before these research findings could be transformed into practical application, a sudden change occurred in the Star Sea,” Ai Tianjue sighed.

“The internal strife within the Mystic Commerce Immortal Vessel caused it to split in two. Our Mystic Immortal Boat seized most of the stored resources, which included the ‘Hundred Hearings Immortal Record.’ The Merchant Immortal Boat, however, took the research findings and an unknown number of Immortal Instruments into its bosom…”

Li Fan was slightly shocked: “Does this mean that in the internal strife of that year, our Mystic Immortal Boat was actually the loser?”

Ai Tianjue nodded: “You could say that.”

Li Fan then fell silent.

He thought to himself: “No wonder everyone on the Mystic Immortal Boat has always been extremely secretive about the information on the Merchant Immortal Boat.”

After a while, Li Fan, showing a puzzled expression, asked again: “The Mystic Commerce Immortal Vessel had been drifting in the Star Sea for a long time, how could they just engage in internal strife due to the arrival of Tribulation?”

“Even facing a nearly desperate situation like the Watchers earlier, our Mystic Immortal Boat didn’t succumb to chaos. The Mystic Commerce Immortal Vessel from back then shouldn’t have been any worse, should it?”

“That’s because, the leader of the Mystic Commerce Immortal Vessel back then, wanted to do something crazy that would lead everyone on the boat to their deaths,” Ai Tianjue said coldly.

“Hmm?”

“They wanted to pilot the Mystic Commerce Immortal Vessel, to crash into the High Wall, attempting to break out of this Star Sea,” after a short silence, Ai Tianjue slowly spoke.

Li Fan was taken aback.

…

Just when everyone on the Mystic Immortal Boat was still searching for a way out within the Yin Yang Bead.

The changes in the Xuanhuang World had already entered a new phase.

The Emperor, who was evenly matched with the Celestial Dharma Bearer at the moment, couldn’t help but get distracted looking towards the anomaly in the sky.

The fusion of many Residual Realms had preliminarily completed.

The White Mist Barrier that originally spanned across Heaven and Earth, under the overwhelming inner force of decay in the Xuanhuang World, started breaking apart one after another.

The vast Cang sky enclosing all the state regions revealed itself to Xuanhuang Cultivators for the first time.

The dispersed Immortal Spirit Energy of the world had been completely absorbed by the Xuan Huang Heavenly Earth.

The Cultivators also slowly awakened from their greed and madness.

They stared blankly at the clear sky they had never seen before, standing still.

Boom…

Amidst the slight trembling of Heaven and Earth, it seemed something was activated.

Traces of lines flashed across the Vault of Heaven and then disappeared.

Even with the Emperor’s power, he couldn’t discern their reality and illusion.

The moves of the Celestial Dharma Bearer became increasingly fierce. Li Ping could feel that the Celestial Dharma Bearer was no longer holding back.

Knowing in his heart that the most crucial moment was coming, the Emperor exhausted all his strength, trying to stop the Celestial Dharma Bearer.

The rumbling of Heaven and Earth became louder.

Yet, a sudden unease surged in the heart of the Emperor.
