213: Chapter 212 Opening the Treasure Vault, the Immortal King's Legacy!

30,000 meters beneath the Demon Suppression Division headquarters.

This was an absolute forbidden zone; even someone at the level of Vice Commander like Liu Ming was not qualified to set foot here on ordinary days.

The surroundings were a massive natural limestone cave, artificially excavated to become extremely spacious. The rock walls were covered with dense array patterns. These patterns were ancient and complex, emitting heart-palpitating fluctuations. Even after tens of thousands of years, they still circulated with a faint glimmer, suppressing all Aura here.

Lin Feng, with Liu Ming and several core Elders, stood before a hundred-zhang-tall bronze giant door.

This door was too massive, so large that it made people feel suffocated.

Standing before it, humans were as insignificant as ants. The bronze door was carved with a magnificent war relief: countless hideous demon gods were roaring, and above the demon gods, a towering man holding a long sword and stepping on the stars was looking down upon all living beings—that was the Demon-Sealing Immortal King, the Dharma form of Sword Demon Zhang Cheng.

Even as just a relief, that Aura of looking down upon the world still made people dare not look directly at it.

"This is... the Demon-Sealing Tomb."

Liu Ming swallowed, his eyes filled with reverence and excitement. This was the greatest secret of the Demon Suppression Division, and also the reason they had held their ground for ten thousand years.

Lin Feng took a deep breath, calmed his mood, and stepped forward.

He raised the combined [Demon Suppression Order] in his hand and aimed it at the circular groove in the center of the giant bronze door.

"Open!"

Lin Feng gave a low shout and pressed the token fiercely into it.

"Click."

A crisp sound of a mechanism engaging echoed in this silent underground space, appearing exceptionally thrilling.

Immediately after.

"Rumble—!!!!"

The giant bronze door, silent for tens of thousands of years, emitted a thunderous roar. That was the heavy mechanism operating, the sealed history being reopened.

Dust fell in rustles, and the earth shook violently, as if a small earthquake had occurred.

The two heavy giant doors slowly opened to the sides.

An ancient, vicissitudinous, yet extremely tyrannical Aura, mixed with thick, inseparable Immortal Qi, rushed out from the crack of the door!

Even with Lin Feng blocking in front, Liu Ming and the others were forced to retreat repeatedly by this pressure, their faces pale, their internal Qi and blood churning.

"Such a strong Aura... Is this the might of an Immortal King? Just the residual Aura makes us unable to stand?"

The gate opened completely.

Lin Feng stepped inside, his pace firm.

However, the scene of mountains of gold and silver, piles of Magic Treasure, and Immortal Pills everywhere that he had imagined did not appear.

Here, it was just an empty, huge stone chamber.

The stone chamber was extremely simple, the four walls desolate; there wasn't even a table or chair.

Only in the very center of the stone chamber floated a small stone platform made from a single piece of star meteorite iron.

On the stone platform, only two things were placed, lonely and solitary.

One was a seemingly ordinary Jade Slip, radiating a faint golden light, with no text on it.

The other was a drop of... blood.

A drop of blood as red as if it were about to drip, only the size of a fingernail, yet it seemed as heavy as a star!

It floated quietly above the stone platform, the surrounding space slightly collapsing because it could not bear its weight, appearing with tiny black cracks.

Within this drop of blood, it seemed to contain a complete world; there were countless gods and demons roaring, sun, moon, and stars evolving, and birth, aging, sickness, and death in Reincarnation.

Even just glancing at it made one feel a trembling at the level of the Soul, as if facing the entire Universe!

"This... this is..."

The Elders behind were already speechless, their legs softening, instinctively wanting to kneel down.

Lin Feng walked to the stone platform, his gaze burning, his heart beating like thunder.

His System interface flashed crazily at this moment, red warning text filling the screen!

[Ding! Detected supreme energy source!]

[Item Name: Essence Blood of the Demon-Sealing Immortal King (contains complete Immortal King Dao Fruit and Law, those without great Luck will die upon touching it)!]

[Item Name: Cultivation Technique Eternal Undying Sutra (Beyond Immortal Grade · Forbidden Level · Fragment)!]

Lin Feng's pupils constricted, his breathing rapid.

Sword Demon Zhang Cheng... that is, the Demon-Sealing Immortal King, actually left behind such a Heaven-Defying thing back then!

He picked up the Jade Slip with trembling hands, his Divine Thought carefully probing inside.

Boom!

A heroic, desolate, yet unyielding voice exploded in his mind:

"I am Sword Demon Zhang Cheng, whom the world calls the Demon-Sealing Immortal King."

"I fought all my life, killed countless demons, pacified the chaotic world, but was ultimately backstabbed by my most trusted brother, Seven Luminaries, leading to my death, my Dao dissipating, and dying with hatred."

"But this is just the beginning, not the end."

"Before I died, I used a great Divine Ability to deduce the heavenly secrets, knowing that there would be a variable ten thousand years later, and someone would come holding my order."

"This Eternal Undying Sutra was obtained by me after nine deaths and one life in the Chaos forbidden zone; it cannot be cultivated without great perseverance and great Luck. Once cultivated, the Physical Body will not perish, the Divine Soul will exist forever, and one can break the shackles of the Immortal King to glimpse that legendary Emperor Realm!"

"As for that drop of essence blood, it is transformed from my lifelong cultivation and insights; it is the final gift I leave for my successor."

"Latecomer, if you can walk to this place, you are my successor."

"Kill Seven Luminaries for me! Raze the Immortal Court! Return a clear and bright Universe to this world!"

The voice dissipated, leaving only Lin Feng standing in place, unable to calm down for a long time.

So, this was the truth.

This was the truth that Wan Sanqian dared not say and Liu Ming dared not think of.

That high-and-mighty Immortal Lord Seven Luminaries (now the Immortal King Seven Luminaries) was a hypocrite who climbed up by backstabbing his brother and stealing the fruits!

"What a Seven Luminaries, what an Immortal Court."

A cold, sharp glint flashed in Lin Feng's eyes.

"Since I have taken your things and accepted your favor, then this grudge, I, Lin Feng, have accepted."

He looked at the drop of Immortal King essence blood emitting terrifying pressure.

For ordinary people, swallowing this drop of blood, even a Grand Unity Golden Immortal, might directly explode and die because they could not bear that violent energy.

But he was different.

He had the System, had the perverted Cultivation Technique Myriad Dao Furnace Sutra that could devour all things, and had the newly awakened Dao Realm Sword Intent to protect his body.

This was the best fuel for him to take off!

"You all retreat and guard the entrance."

Lin Feng said to the crowd behind him without turning his head, his voice low. "No matter what happens inside, you are not allowed to come in. Even if this place collapses, guard it for me!"

"Yes!"

Liu Ming and the others, although worried, knew that this level of Legacy was not something they could interfere with, and staying here would only distract Lin Feng.

The crowd immediately bowed and retreated, working together to close the heavy bronze door.

In the stone chamber, dead silence returned, leaving only Lin Feng.

He took a deep breath, sat cross-legged, and opened his mouth.

That drop of Immortal King essence blood, heavy as a star, was drawn by the pull and slowly flew into his mouth.

"Boom—!!!!"

The moment it entered his throat, Lin Feng felt as if he had swallowed a supernova that was exploding!

The terrifying heat and energy instantly erupted within his body, his five viscera and six bowels turned to ashes in an instant, and then reborn under the effect of the Myriad Dao Furnace Sutra!

"Myriad Dao Furnace! Refine it for me!!"

Lin Feng roared, golden flames spewing from every pore on his body, and his whole person turned into a man of fire.

A transformation of shedding the mortal body and exchanging bones, rising from death, began!
