174: Chapter 174 The Immortal King's Shroud, the Artifact for Suppressing the Immortal King!
The Eternal Dao circulated and Eternal Power spread out, enveloping Eastern Emperor Mountain on his shoulder and firmly protecting everyone atop it.
For Xu Jinhuan, although the traps here were dangerous, they were not fatal; he possessed the terrifying strength of the Eternal Chaos Body, enough to withstand the killing power of the Formations and move through them freely.
But the others on Eastern Emperor Mountain could not.
“Lord, what are you trying to...” Fang Qingyao watched all this, somewhat bewildered.
Xu Jinhuan smiled slightly and explained to her via Divine Sense transmission: “This Power of Destiny serves as both a defense and an alarm. I could break it, but that would expose our presence and let that old thing realize his nest is being raided.”
“In that case, how are we supposed to get through?” Fang Qingyao became increasingly confused.
“Simple, just watch.”
After Xu Jinhuan finished speaking, he actively allowed his body to fall, sinking into the Power of Destiny.
“Danger!”
Fang Qingyao let out a cry of alarm, but her voice came to an abrupt halt as she was surrounded by the Power of Destiny.
Because that Power of Destiny, which was enough to suppress an ordinary Immortal King, actually posed no great threat to them!
Xu Jinhuan's attention was now focused on himself.
Within the 'moat', there was an astonishing power that made one's Divine Soul tremble and eyes blur, as if one's soul were about to return to the netherworld, never to be reborn.
“What formidable Power of Destiny, its lethality is shocking, especially against the Divine Soul.” As he commented, the Eternal Power on his body grew even denser, constantly dissolving and neutralizing the washing waves of destiny power.
Finally, they entered the interior of the Immortal Kings Dao Field without further incident.
The sky was filled with the circulation of Immortal King Dao runes, brilliant light feathers, and a kaleidoscope of colors; the power of the Immortal Dao was incredibly dense.
Such a blessed land was undoubtedly a cultivation Holy Land, capable of easily nurturing all kinds of precious treasures and significantly increasing one's cultivation speed.
Even a mundane swine could easily achieve Immortal Ascension here, and even Breakthrough to the Heavenly Immortal Realm!
“Jinhuan, the other half of the golden book... ran away!” Luo Qingxian's urgent transmission rang out.
Xu Jinhuan turned his head and saw that the half-page golden book, which had been silent just a moment ago, had now turned into a streak of light with a 'whoosh', attempting to rush into the distance and escape his vicinity.
In the distance, in the direction the golden book was heading, a divine mountain stood tall. On the mountain, countless immortal fields steamed with auspicious mist, where immortal herbs and treasures were rooted, emitting strange fragrances and flowing with immortal light.
“Is it actually trying to escape my capture by leading the way? It seems the intelligence of this golden book page has accumulated to a shocking degree, nearly becoming sentient!”
Xu Jinhuan rubbed his chin and smacked his lips.
In the next moment, he appeared on the divine mountain. With a wave of his sleeve, all the treasures vanished instantly. The originally dazzling herb fields became empty in a flash, and even the immortal soil on the ground was swept away by over three zhang, exposing the ordinary stubborn rocks at the very bottom.
“Young Master, the golden book is glowing again, don't let it get away!”
An anxious, urging transmission came from Eastern Emperor Mountain.
Xu Jinhuan, however, was not too worried.
“It's fine, let it fly for a while. I'm a stranger in a strange land here, and I just happen to need a local to lead the way.”
The Immortal Kings Dao Field was vast and boundless, being a Small World hidden within the deep turbulence of the Void Realm, and surrounded by the suppression and monitoring of the Power of Destiny.
Being inside it, Xu Jinhuan could only use his Pupils of Insight to observe; he could not use his Divine Sense to search for treasures.
Now that there was a local treasure leading the way for free, he certainly wouldn't be so foolish as to seize it so early.
Soon, following the footsteps of the half-page golden book, Xu Jinhuan arrived at an ancient bronze palace. It contained countless killing weapons and layers of Formations, and at its deepest part, there was even an Immortal King weapon sealed.
“This should be the spoils of war collected by the Immortal King of Destiny over the long years—the palace and weapon of a deceased Immortal King.”
Xu Jinhuan strolled through it, his body enveloped in Eternal Power to completely conceal his aura. He walked as if on level ground; the killing Formations and weapons before him were like mere decorations, and he encountered no obstacles along the way.
At the deepest part, a blood-stained piece of cloth lay quietly in the center of the hall. The center was tattered and riddled with cracks, and the dark red blood seemed to still be flowing, emitting a heart-palpitating aura.
This was an Immortal King Artifact!
“The immortal king shroud!”
Xu Jinhuan recognized the item's origin at a glance, and his heart was shaken, making him even more wary of the Immortal King of Destiny.
“To be able to force an Immortal King to the point where even their shroud is mostly shattered, this person's combat power is definitely among the best even among Peak Immortal Kings!”
“As expected of a powerhouse standing at the peak of the Great Dao of Destiny!”
While he was dazed, the immortal king shroud suddenly trembled and teleported directly in front of him.
The residual blood of the Immortal King boiled, and a pressure no weaker than an Immortal King's Divine Might erupted, attempting to suppress Xu Jinhuan on the spot.
Clearly, this tattered cloth took Xu Jinhuan for a subordinate or descendant of the Immortal King of Destiny.
Such a sudden change caused the people within Eastern Emperor Mountain on Xu Jinhuan's shoulder to instantly cover their mouths. The eruption of an Immortal King Artifact was truly too shocking; they were about to be exposed!
Just an instant before the Immortal King's pressure could completely spread out—
“A mere Immortal King Artifact, how presumptuous!”
Xu Jinhuan gave a cold snort, and a vast, matchless power that could obliterate everything spread from his body. It directly enveloped a million-mile radius, sealing the heavens and locking the earth, isolating everything so that no sound or movement could escape.
Eternal Chaos Domain!
Unfold!
Instantly, the entire ancient bronze palace was suppressed and locked down by him. The immortal king shroud, which had just tried to erupt with Immortal King pressure, was now like it had fallen into an inescapable quagmire, almost unable to move. Only the residual blood containing the Immortal King's lingering prestige still had the ability to move freely.
However, it couldn't stir up any trouble either, barely able to budge.
After all, it was only the residual blood of an Immortal King powerhouse and did not possess the true Divine Might of an Immortal King.
Xu Jinhuan took a step forward, arrived before the immortal king shroud, reached out a hand, and grabbed it in his palm, clutching it tightly as he questioned it.
“Do you submit?!”
Sizzle sizzle—
The Immortal King blood drove the shroud to twist and shake its head frantically, as if desperately refusing.
Crack crack!
Xu Jinhuan increased his strength, and the Eternal Power following his fist instantly transformed into a fishing net, tightly binding and netting the shroud.
“One last time: surrender, or die!”
Zzzt zzzt...
The Eternal fishing net suddenly contracted, frantically eroding the blood-stained shroud. Billowing mist began to rise, as if it could be ignited at any moment.
Feeling the shocking force coming from Xu Jinhuan and the terrifying erosion of that strange net, the immortal king shroud trembled violently again, like a startled small beast in a landslide.
The dignified Immortal King weapon actually showed emotions of pity and fear at this moment...
Such a scene directly left the girls on Eastern Emperor Mountain dumbfounded, questioning their reality.
“Just how strong is the Young Master?”
“I must be dreaming. Junior Sister Yuebai, come here, let me try slapping you.”
“Get lost, you stinky Luo Yi, why don't you slap yourself?”
“Hehe, isn't it because I'm afraid of the pain?”
Xu Jinhuan ignored the joking and playing of the women on Eastern Emperor Mountain and continued to pressure the immortal king shroud before him.
Finally, just before the Eternal Power was about to shred the cloth, a naive thought was transmitted from it.
The voice was crisp and pleasant, like a silver bell, sounding like a romantic young girl in the prime of her youth.
“Big Brother, I am willing to submit, please let me go!”
