Chapter 3784 A Familiar Name
I don't know how much time has passed.
A majestic immortal city came into view.
This immortal city is vast, seemingly stretching across the heavens and earth. On its ancient and mottled walls are traces of dried blood, and an immense, abyss-like pressure suppresses all directions.
When Shen Changqing looked at this immortal city, his expression was also stern.
"The City of Fallen Immortals!"
According to the guidance of the Myriad Immortals Compass, this is the City of Fallen Immortals.
An ancient immortal city on the same level as the Heavenly Dao Immortal City of the Divine Sun Domain.
the difference is.
These ancient immortal cities appear somewhat dilapidated, yet terrifying Daoist auras linger, telling the story of the astonishing battles that once erupted here.
Outside the immortal city, there were many cultivators coming and going.
When Shen Changqing and Ji Kong arrived at the Fallen Immortal City, they each paid the fee of a high-grade immortal stone.
Although the Burial Immortal Continent suffered a great calamity in ancient times, resulting in the extinction of all living beings, the Fallen Immortal City, as the oldest immortal city in the Myriad Immortal Domain and the location of the Heavenly Dao Divine Stele, naturally attracts the attention of many forces.
However, these forces also know that it is absolutely impossible for them to monopolize the Fallen Immortal City on their own.
and so.
The various forces then united to jointly take control of the Fallen Immortal City.
It is just like the six sects, nine dynasties, and thirteen holy lands of the Divine Sun Domain.
These forces are basically backed by immortals.
In this regard.
Shen Changqing naturally had no intention of breaking off relations with him.
After all, it's just the entrance fee for a top-grade immortal stone, nothing to brag about.
but--
Shen Changqing could also keenly sense that when he stepped into the City of Fallen Immortals, many eyes were already on him in the shadows.
However, since these eyes were watching from the shadows but did nothing, he naturally didn't pay much attention to them.
the other side.
Ji Kong also vaguely sensed something, and his expression turned slightly serious.
"Master!"
"No need to worry about it. We killed quite a few cultivators on this trip, so it's normal for the forces in Fallen Immortal City to get some information."
As long as they don't take action, just pretend you didn't see anything.
Shen Changqing stood with his hands behind his back, his steps unhurried, and his expression as calm as ever.
Upon hearing this...
Ji Kong didn't say anything more.
……
The City of Fallen Immortals is very large.
As the oldest immortal city in the Myriad Immortal Realms, this immortal city is naturally extraordinary.
Even after enduring the great calamity of antiquity, this immortal city was not truly destroyed and was still preserved.
but.
Compared to the Heavenly Dao Immortal City.
The order in the City of Fallen Immortals is obviously much more chaotic.
Shen Changqing had already seen many cultivators fighting each other in the Immortal City.
However, these cultivators who made their moves were clearly quite restrained, obviously afraid of disturbing other powerful figures and bringing about their own demise.
at the same time.
No force stepped forward to maintain order.
It is clear.
The various forces that jointly control the Fallen Immortal City have no intention of establishing order. For these forces, controlling the Fallen Immortal City and collecting entrance fees is enough to provide them with an extra source of income.
As for other things, there's absolutely no need to interfere too much.
after all.
To maintain order in a region, one must pay a corresponding price.
however.
No one wants to bear such a price.
Shen Changqing was aware of these circumstances, but he didn't pay much attention to them.
Whether the City of Fallen Immortals is in chaos or not is unimportant; his purpose in coming here is solely for the Heavenly Dao Divine Stele.
and so.
After entering the City of Fallen Immortals, Shen Changqing led Ji Kong straight to the Heavenly Dao Divine Stele.
Although the City of Fallen Immortals was very large, he was naturally familiar with the aura of the Heavenly Dao Divine Stele.
After a while.
The two then arrived at the location of the Heavenly Dao Divine Stele.
"This is the Heavenly Dao Divine Stele!"
Ji Kong gazed at the four ancient immortal steles, their aura, which seemed capable of suppressing the long river of time, made him feel suffocated.
Four Immortal Steles!
It seems to have existed since time immemorial.
Even time cannot diminish it in the slightest.
Ji Kong had heard of the existence of the Heavenly Dao Divine Stele more than once during his many years at the Lingxiao Sword Sect, so he was very familiar with it.
But rumors are rumors, and actually witnessing it with your own eyes is another matter entirely.
now.
Only when he truly stood before the Heavenly Dao Divine Stele could Ji Kong understand the true nature of this ancient immortal stele.
His gaze swept across the Heavenly Dao Divine Steles.
Immortal King's Stele!
Ancient Immortal Stele!
Immortal Emperor's Stele!
……
Each Heavenly Dao Divine Stele is engraved with numerous names.
The difference is that the names on the Immortal King Stele seem to change every moment; a name that was on the list just a moment ago will disappear the next.
But every name on it was unfamiliar to Ji Kong.
Let's take another look at the Ancient Immortal Stele.
The names on it change occasionally, but very slowly, unlike those on the Immortal King Stele.
As for the Immortal Emperor Stele, the many names on it seem to have existed since time immemorial, without any change whatsoever.
only--
When Ji Kong looked at the highest point of the Immortal Emperor Stele, the name hanging there made his pupils shrink suddenly.
The Immortal Emperor's Stele is number one!
Shen Changqing —
This moment.
Ji Kong stared intently at that name, forgetting to breathe, completely stunned.
Shen Changqing!!
What is the name of one's own master?
to be frank.
In the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm, there are at least 800,000 to 1 million cultivators named Shen Changqing, which is not unusual at all.
There is absolutely no basis to conclude that someone is their master based solely on a name.
but--
Ji Kong was absolutely certain that this name was left by his master.
Until this moment.
All of Ji Kong's doubts suddenly vanished.
Why does Master need to hide his identity?
Why is Master's strength so terrifying that he can kill a hall master of the Immortal God Sect with ease!
Why was Master able to gain a foothold in Dongming Immortal Prefecture and make even a force of the level of Fuyao Holy Land submit to him?
It turns out that everything was because of their master, who was the one who ascended to the top of the Immortal Emperor's Stele.
The Immortal Emperor's Stele is number one!
Ji Kong understood the true value of this.
Despite the fact that the Lingxiao Sword Sect has been passed down since the ancient times, the number of powerful individuals who have actually been able to set foot on the Immortal Emperor Stele over countless years is extremely limited.
According to the records of the Lingxiao Sword Sect, among the powerful figures of the sect throughout history, the highest ranking on the Immortal Emperor Stele was only thirty-ninth.
Even so.
The other party's name was also recorded by the Lingxiao Sword Sect, passed down through the ages, for future generations to admire.
The Thirty-Nine Immortal Emperor Stele is already like this.
One can imagine what kind of existence the first one on the Immortal Emperor's Stele is.
"Master!"
Ji Kong took a deep breath and looked at Shen Changqing beside her, her eyes seemingly seeking an answer.
The latter put his hands behind his back and said calmly, "There are some things you can keep to yourself; there's no need to tell others."
"...Disciple understands!"
Ji Kong remained silent for a long time before finally exhaling a breath of stale air, his expression becoming excited.
This is the answer.
This is undoubtedly a tacit admission.
The fact that the first place on the Immortal Emperor Stele was actually his own master was a sudden and unexpected shock, which even made Ji Kong, with his strong Dao heart, feel somewhat excited.
All the powerful individuals listed on the Immortal Emperor Stele are among the top-tier individuals below the Half-Saint level.
Even his other master from the Lingxiao Sword Sect, who was the master of the first peak, was not qualified to be included in the Immortal Emperor Stele.
Just this one point.
This alone is enough to demonstrate how terrifying the Immortal Emperor's Stele is.
now.
In Ji Kong's mind, the words Jiang Daoyuan had once said came to mind again.
"Any Immortal Emperor on the Immortal Emperor Stele is the strongest being below the Half-Saint realm. Those who have stepped into the top ten of the Immortal Emperor Stele can even compete with Half-Saints."
If one can rank among the top three on the Immortal Emperor's Stele, one will be truly qualified to stand shoulder to shoulder with a half-saint.
Barring unforeseen circumstances, these powerful individuals will undoubtedly be able to attain immortality and reach the realm of half-saint or even saint!
This.
These are Jiang Daoyuan's original words.
now--
My master has reached the top of the Immortal Emperor Stele, so his strength can be called the number one Immortal Emperor in the world.
Such an existence is probably no weaker than a true immortal demigod.
This is understandable; it explains why the other party was so confident in coming to Burial Immortal State.
If one possesses the strength of a half-saint, one can go not only to the Burial Immortal Continent, but also to any region in the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm.
Simultaneously.
The pressure from those secretly watching him when he first entered the City of Fallen Immortals has now dissipated in Ji Kong's heart.
With their own master protecting them, there will certainly be no problem on this trip.
As his thought settled, Shen Changqing's voice followed.
"The Ancient Immortal Stele is right before you. Go forth and seize the opportunity that belongs to you!"
"Disciple understands!"
Ji Kong took a deep breath to calm his turbulent mind, and then headed towards the Ancient Immortal Stele.
now.
Although there were many cultivators around the Heavenly Dao Divine Stele, there were no cultivators within the stele's range.
When Ji Kong stepped into the area of the Ancient Immortal Stele, he immediately attracted a lot of attention.
"Another cultivator has come to try the Ancient Immortal Stele!"
"Hmph, the Ancient Immortal Stele isn't so easy to enter. Looks like another overconfident junior!"
Many cultivators showed disdain and had no opinion of Ji Kong.
After all, the Ancient Immortal Stele covers all the ancient immortal cultivators in the Upper Realm. Only the strongest one hundred ancient immortals are qualified to leave their names on the Heavenly Dao Divine Stele.
The City of Fallen Immortals is frequented by numerous cultivators, and the number of ancient immortals who come to the Ancient Immortal Stele is not just a hundred million, but tens of millions. However, not a single ancient immortal has been able to ascend the Ancient Immortal Stele.
and so.
In their view.
The cultivators of the past were no good, and neither is Ji Kong of today.
However, some powerful cultivators couldn't help but look somewhat solemn when they saw Ji Kong.
"This boy is no ordinary person!"
An old Immortal Emperor slowly spoke.
With his years of experience and insight, he could vaguely discern the extraordinary nature of Ji Kong.
Compared to other ancient immortals, the opponent's foundation was particularly strong. Every move he made could draw upon immortal power and Daoist charm, a quality that ordinary ancient immortals could not match.
Despite the many ancient immortals who come and go, only a handful truly possess such profound knowledge and experience.
Of course.
Although Ji Kong gave off an extraordinary feeling, the other powerful figures still didn't hold out much hope that he was qualified to ascend the Ancient Immortal Stele.
After all, the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm is too vast, and to truly stand out among all the ancient immortals, one must be an unparalleled genius.
