70: Chapter 69: Reversal! Suppressing the Immortal King's regret for a thousand years

Chapter 69: Reversal! Suppressing the Immortal King Remnant, Thousand Years of Refinement!

The glazed skull blossomed with brilliant light, permeated with Dao Qi, and enveloped by immeasurable Karma, it floated before Gu Shengge, who solemnly asked:

"Little fellow, are you willing to accept my Legacy and become my Disciple, the Immortal King of Karma and Reincarnation?"

Gu Shengge came back to his senses, looked at the Immortal King Remnant before him, and without hesitation, immediately nodded:

"This Junior is willing."

"Good! I can rest assured knowing that even as I dissipate, I can still accept you as a Disciple and pass on my Legacy. Come, accept my Legacy!"

The Immortal King of Karma and Reincarnation exclaimed, telling Gu Shengge to open his Heart-Nature and accept his Legacy.

Gu Shengge, without suspicion, followed the Immortal King Remnant's guidance and opened his Heart-Nature.

Swish!!

Without any hesitation, the Immortal King Remnant instantly detached from the glazed skull and shot into Gu Shengge's glabella.

But just as the Immortal King of Karma and Reincarnation entered Gu Shengge's Sea of Consciousness, a purple Jade Disc, covered in cracks, appeared out of thin air, unleashing billions of strands of Dao Qi, vast and overwhelming, covering the sky and earth, suppressing the Immortal King Remnant!

"What!"

The Immortal King of Karma and Reincarnation was greatly alarmed. Without time to think, he punched towards the jade disc of creation. With his punch, Karma moved, and myriad cycles of Reincarnation perished. Shaking the heavens was easy, but shaking Creation was difficult.

As the supreme treasure that once bore the Three Thousand Dao, even though the jade disc of creation was severely damaged, it was not something a mere Immortal King Remnant could shake.

Even if the Immortal King's punch light could pierce through all the heavens and myriad realms, it was still powerfully obliterated by the jade disc of creation. The Dao Seal suddenly enveloped the Immortal King Remnant, instantly suppressing him on the spot!

Once the Immortal King of Karma and Reincarnation was completely sealed, Gu Shengge appeared in his Sea of Consciousness, coldly observing him.

"Little fellow, what are you doing? Hurry and release me! Don't you want to obtain my Legacy anymore?"

The Immortal King Remnant, while struggling against the Dao Seal, urgently questioned Gu Shengge.

Gu Shengge looked at the Immortal King Remnant, who was like a trapped beast, with an indifferent expression, no longer humble as before, his eyes calm as an ancient well.

"Senior, do I look very naive?" Gu Shengge asked indifferently.

Upon hearing this, the Immortal King Remnant stopped struggling. He looked coldly at Gu Shengge and spoke in a deep voice, filled with unwillingness and doubt.

"Little fellow, when did you start suspecting me?"

Gu Shengge: "Senior, offering courtesies for no reason indicates ill intent. Although you tried your best to appear harmless, repeatedly emphasizing that you were just a Remnant, incapable of Possession, and wanted to bestow the Legacy upon this Junior, the more you did so, the more it aroused suspicion."

The more a person lacks something, the more they pretend not to need it.

The Immortal King Remnant's act was too much.

If he had been more aloof, Gu Shengge would not have believed him.

Compared to Legacies from Remnants or remnant souls, Gu Shengge preferred those preserved as text on Jade Slips.

Moreover, the seemingly uneven strange stones arranged outside the Legacy Tower actually contained sealing power.

Presumably, they were meant to seal the Immortal King Remnant, suppressing him within the tower and preventing his emergence.

The destruction of the Forgotten River Holy Courtyard might also be related to the Immortal King Remnant.

As for why the Immortal King of Karma and Reincarnation didn't immediately possess him, Gu Shengge thought it was because the jade disc of creation protected him.

Immortal King Remnant: "Heh heh, you are quite cunning, aren't you? But I'm more curious, why did you go against your original intention, even though you clearly wanted to accept my Legacy?"

"Senior, the human Heart-Nature is unfathomable. Surely you understand such a simple truth." Gu Shengge said indifferently.

The Immortal King of Karma and Reincarnation was slightly stunned, as if remembering something. He self-mockingly said: "Yes, the human Heart-Nature is unfathomable. I've already stumbled once, and I didn't expect to stumble again."

The reason they lost the world war back then was because they underestimated the human Heart-Nature!

"Senior, if you have no other last words, then this Junior will see you off."

Gu Shengge still maintained respect for the Immortal King Remnant, not mocking him or kicking him while he was down just because he was trapped.

The Immortal King of Karma and Reincarnation's eyes narrowed, and he said sharply: "Little fellow, I made a misstep and lost to you, but don't think that you can refine me just by relying on this supreme treasure. Immortal Kings are indestructible through myriad kalpas, immortal through all heavens. Even if I am just a Remnant, I am not something you can refine!"

"But you are not a true Immortal King after all." Gu Shengge said lightly.

"So what? Little fellow, an Immortal King cannot be insulted. If you release me, I will not hold your scheming against me. Otherwise, I will self-destruct my Remnant and drag you down with me!"

The Immortal King Remnant threatened coldly. Gu Shengge shook his head: "This Junior will watch. Do as you please."

Seeing that firmness didn't work, the Immortal King of Karma and Reincarnation changed his tone and began to use gentler persuasion.

"Little fellow, even with this supreme treasure, it would take you at least a thousand years to refine me. Why don't you let me go? I won't possess you, and as compensation, how about I give you an Immortal King Legacy?"

Gu Shengge shook his head again: "Please allow this Junior to refuse. At worst, this Junior will accompany you sitting for a thousand years. If I don't refine you, this Junior won't sleep peacefully."

"I &# 々 ￥…"

Seeing that he wouldn't budge with either hard or soft tactics, the Immortal King Remnant could no longer hold back, spewing out foul language in the Immortal tongue.

He had thought he'd found a little lamb that met his requirements, with a Heaven-Defying Heart-Nature, Opportunity, and talent, but he didn't expect it to be a wolf in sheep's clothing.

Alas~ He could only blame himself for being too confident. Even after his demise, he still maintained the arrogance of an Immortal King and did not put a mere Nascent Soul Cultivator in his eyes.

Who knew he would fall into a trap and end up being imprisoned and refined.

If he had known this, he shouldn't have allowed Gu Shengge to return. He should have let him be trapped and die in the fragments of the Primordial Immortal Realm.

Gu Shengge no longer wasted words with the Immortal King Remnant. He controlled the jade disc of creation, absorbed him into it, and began to slowly refine him. A thousand years was not long.

After confirming that the jade disc of creation could completely seal the Immortal King Remnant, Gu Shengge breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, this Immortal King Remnant was too arrogant, thinking the situation was settled, otherwise he might not have been able to take him down.

To be honest, he was actually a little afraid of the Immortal King Remnant self-destructing. Even if he was just a Remnant, he was essentially an Immortal King's Possession.

Once he self-destructed, it was unknown if the jade disc of creation could withstand it.

Gu Shengge's Heart-Nature returned. He looked at the glazed skull floating before him. Although it had lost the Immortal King Remnant's blessing, it still exuded an unimaginable aura of the Dao, terrifying to the extreme.

This was an Immortal King's skull, the remains of the strongest being in the Immortal Realm.

Just as Gu Shengge was thinking about how to retrieve the Immortal King's skull, the jade disc of creation flew out of his Sea of Consciousness and directly devoured the Immortal King's skull.

Gu Shengge smiled wryly, not dwelling on it too much, but he looked at the void space he was in, frowning slightly.

How was he supposed to get out?

Gu Shengge released his spiritual power, attempting to explore the void space.

This should be inside the Legacy Tower. There must be a door, but it was hidden by the Immortal King Remnant.

As Gu Shengge's spiritual power searched again and again.

Heaven rewards the diligent. He finally found the key to getting out.

That was to refine this Legacy Tower!

More precisely, to refine this Immortal King artifact!
