820: Attack the Immortal City, the old man falls

Undying City.

Located three hundred thousand miles north of Danxuan Province, Undying City, as one of the Nine Great Forbidden Zones, is naturally fraught with unpredictable dangers.

Since ancient times, countless powerhouses and forces have attacked it, but unfortunately, very few have been able to emerge alive.

Undying City is a City even larger than Danxuan Province; it is a City, and even more so, a vast great province.

There are many legends about Undying City. People of the Eastern Barrens generally believe that Undying City harbors the secret of immortality and contains a chance for longevity.

Though its name is Undying, there is no trace of life within it. It is filled with a dense aura of death, and even the thousand-mile radius around Undying City is devoid of any life, completely desolate.

According to ancient legends, the Longevity Great Emperor once entered Undying City, gained a heaven-defying fortune within it, comprehended the Great Dao of Longevity, and ultimately became a Great Emperor, known as Longevity!

After the Longevity Great Emperor achieved his Dao, he never set foot in Undying City again, nor did he mention anything about Undying City to future generations.

Some say that the Longevity Great Emperor had some kind of transaction with Undying City; he obtained the opportunity to achieve his Dao, and due to the transaction, he could not reveal too much about Undying City.

Others say that the Longevity Great Emperor seized the fortune of Undying City, which allowed him to achieve his Dao, but he was wary of the existence within Undying City, so he dared not step into it again!

As for the true situation, no one knows.

Thirty miles from Undying City.

At the summit of a towering mountain, numerous ancient warships appeared, along with countless rogue cultivators who came to watch the excitement. They all stood on the mountain, staring at the front with faces full of apprehension.

Under normal circumstances, they would not dare to get this close. Only today, with many powerhouses gathered here, did they dare to approach.

Senior Xiu Tianchen and others stood on the ancient warships, their expressions solemn as they stared at Undying City ahead.

They had already prepared for the worst on this trip, but as they truly approached Undying City, they still felt an inexplicable sense of oppression.

"..."

Xie Weilou stood among the crowd, gazing at Undying City in front.

The Undying City ahead was immense, its interior entirely gray, with gray mist rising and mysterious buildings faintly appearing. The aura of death was extremely dense.

Although still thirty miles from Undying City, he could sense waves of heart-palpitating auras from a distance.

This Undying City was extremely strange. If one carelessly trespassed, it would be extremely difficult to emerge alive.

Xie Weilou then looked at Senior Xiu Tianchen and the others. There were five individuals who intended to attack Undying City this time.

Each of them was an absolute old monster, exuding terrifying pressure. The weakest among them were in the Creation Realm, and they were all venerable elders of various major forces.

"Senior Xiu Tianchen, the First Alchemist of the Eastern Barrens, the Old Ancestor of the Qingwu Sacred Dynasty, and the venerable elders of major forces like Zhou Tian Holy Land, Myriad Sword Holy Land, and Bright Holy Land—with such a powerful lineup, do they have confidence in attacking Undying City this time?"

Someone gazed at Senior Xiu Tianchen and the others on the ancient warships, their eyes filled with reverence.

These five powerhouses, the weakest of whom were in the Creation Realm, and some even at the Supreme level, were all famous figures.

Now that their lifespans were nearing their end, they had no choice but to attack Undying City. The outcome was unpredictable, which made people sigh.

No matter how strong one's cultivation, one could not outlast Time, unless one could become a Great Emperor of legend, perhaps then one could achieve eternal imperishability.

But even a Great Emperor might not dare to speak of true eternity; in the face of the years, who would dare to claim eternity?

Throughout the long history of the Eastern Barrens, many Great Emperors had been born, but all of them had vanished without a trace.

To this day, the last Great Emperor was the Human Emperor from a hundred thousand years ago, but he too disappeared.

Perhaps even a Great Emperor, strong as he was, found it difficult to achieve eternity, and thus needed to continue advancing.

Senior Xiu Tianchen glanced at the four old men beside him and said with a faint smile, "Four fellow Daoists, are you prepared to die?"

The Old Ancestor of the Qingwu Sacred Dynasty, a white-haired, hunchbacked old man, smiled and said, "I have long seen through life and death, what is there to fear?"

He conjured a green longsword, and his aura surged wildly.

"Qingwu Sacred Sword! Fellow Daoist, entering Undying City this time, a sacred artifact might not hold up."

Senior Xiu Tianchen shook his head.

The Qingwu Sacred Dynasty had produced peerless powerhouses who refined this inherited divine sword, but this sword was not an supreme emperor artifact. Entering Undying City, it might be difficult for it to return.

"No matter!"

The Qingwu Old Ancestor smiled as he caressed the longsword.

Senior Xiu Tianchen then looked at the other three: "And the three fellow Daoists?"

The venerable elder of Zhou Tian Holy Land conjured a bronze gate.

This gate was extraordinary, covered with dense, mysterious runes. Even before fully awakened, it already exuded an aura that made one's soul tremble.

The venerable elder of Myriad Sword Holy Land, on the other hand, conjured a pitch-black longsword.

The venerable elder of Bright Holy Land conjured an ancient, mysterious white divine coffin.

"Gate of the Hegemon Emperor, great luo heavenly sword, Bright Emperor Coffin!"

When everyone saw these three weapons, their eyes narrowed.

The three weapons were all supreme emperor artifacts of the three great Holy Lands. Only when attacking a forbidden zone would these old monsters use supreme emperor artifacts.

The venerable elder of Zhou Tian Holy Land smiled and said, "Coming with supreme emperor artifacts, we hope to seize a sliver of life."

Even with supreme emperor artifacts in hand, they had no confidence whatsoever.

Previously, wasn't the venerable elder of Longevity Holy Land holding the longevity cauldron when he attacked Guangyin Ridge? Yet, it didn't even cause a ripple.

Senior Xiu Tianchen smiled and said, "Since preparations are complete, let's enter Undying City!"

With that, he took the lead and rushed forward.

"Go!"

The four old men did not hesitate, immediately charging towards Undying City. They traversed the thirty-mile distance in an instant, directly rushing into Undying City.

The powerhouses of the Qingwu Sacred Dynasty, Zhou Tian Holy Land, Myriad Sword Holy Land, and Bright Holy Land all took out jade talismans—these were soul tablets.

Their eyes showed apprehension. If a soul tablet shattered, it meant that the venerable elder had fallen.

"..."

The onlookers held their breath, watching intently.

Boom!

Not long after, within Undying City, bursts of roaring sounds suddenly erupted. The pressure of supreme emperor artifacts emerged, constantly blasting in all directions.

Space shattered, the gray mist in the City was dispersed, and many faintly appearing buildings were blasted apart.

"They're fighting!"

Everyone's pupils constricted, their expressions incredibly solemn.

Unless they encountered an absolute killing intent, these old men would definitely not easily use supreme emperor artifacts.

After all, using supreme emperor artifacts required a huge price.

This Undying City was indeed dangerous. The moment they entered, they began to fight.

The sounds of battle lasted for a moment, then instantly ceased. The ultimate emperor might dispersed, and Undying City returned to its original state, shrouded in mist with buildings faintly appearing.

"It shattered... The Old Ancestor's soul tablet shattered."

The powerhouse of the Qingwu Sacred Dynasty looked at the shattered soul tablet in his hand, a hint of sorrow in his eyes.

"..."

The powerhouses of Zhou Tian Holy Land, Myriad Sword Holy Land, and Bright Holy Land also looked at their shattered soul tablets, their expressions incredibly downcast.

Their venerable elders had also fallen. Even holding supreme emperor artifacts was useless.

They had just entered Undying City, barely causing a ripple, and the people had already fallen. Undying City was, after all, Undying City. Any living creature that stepped in was doomed to die.

Even though they knew it was a certain death situation, they still held a glimmer of hope, but at this moment, that hope was gone.

Forbidden zones, after all, were not areas that external living beings could tread upon!
