Born with immortal seed

Chapter 893 The Sound on the Execution Platform

"The blood of the true spirit is the essence of the Azure Dragon..."

Bai Taotao squeezed out a low murmur, like a groan, her emotions complex.

It remained trembling the entire time, not even moving a finger.

It's not that I don't dare, it's that I can't do it.

Under the pressure of the true spirit, it was not even an ant, even if it was just a drop of true spirit blood.

But among all living beings in the Three Realms, how many have the opportunity to see even a glimpse of the true spirit?

Even the important figures in the Demon Emperor's Palace listened to the imperial decree remotely.

Among the many true spirits in the Heavenly Demon Realm, Azure Dragon is undoubtedly the most suitable match for White Peach.

If this drop of essence blood were to fall on its head, it could even directly lead to the perfection of the Void Refinement stage.

However, Bai Taotao never dared to hope for this, and she was well aware of the vast difference in status between herself and Gun Gun in her master's heart.

One stayed by my side when I was still struggling, while the other came to join me halfway through life; they are not comparable.

But when the moment actually arrives, one can't help but feel a surge of ambition.

"To advance to the Demon God level while lying down, what incredible luck! Those so-called Holy Sons of the Heavenly Demon Realm would be green with envy..."

The white peach's body reveals subtle wood grain patterns, and its originally smooth, jade-like skin has grown fine down in recent years.

Like tiny mouths, they all opened wide, greedily absorbing the silver threads scattered from the twelve-winged cicada.

Over the years, it has been influenced by the twelve-winged cicada, and its physical nature has begun to change.

Originally just a spiritual root and body created by heaven and earth, it has now gradually become the manifestation of the lifespan of heaven and earth, silently reaping the lifespan of nearby living beings with every move it makes.

The area affected has expanded from ten zhang around its body to several li.

When you fight with someone, you unknowingly steal away your lifespan.

Although it is simply the Great Dao of Longevity, to outsiders it is not much different from the Great Dao of Time.

However, the stronger she became, the less Bai Taotao dared to leave her master's side for even a moment, for fear of being captured.

"Without achieving fusion, I can forget about walking alone in the Immortal Realm. I'll just have to stick close to a powerful figure..."

Bai Taotao raised her arm, and an enticing fragrance wafted up, making one want to take a bite.

As it gets closer to the Great Dao of Longevity and reacts with its innate spiritual root, in a sense it is transforming into an elixir of immortality.

The body parts, flesh, and hair are all top-notch longevity-enhancing spiritual objects.

While the claim that eating a piece of its flesh grants immortality is an exaggeration, it can certainly extend one's lifespan by a thousand years.

As soon as it appears outside, it won't be long before a powerful being at the Fusion Realm personally intervenes and keeps it captive.

"As long as the master can merge with the body, the Great Dao of Time will manifest in the world. Perhaps the lifespan of all people will increase dramatically, and longevity-extending spiritual objects will emerge in endless streams. I can reach the seventh level without much effort."

Bai Taotao's heart calmed down, and a sense of clarity washed over her. The residual true meaning of the River of Time that had swept through the cave earlier surged towards her, and a warm, jade-like light shone on her face.

……

A blood-stained platform, where curses can be heard from the moment one gets close, a sound that has lingered for millions of years.

Even a million years from now, this curse, a mixture of defiance, resentment, and pleas for mercy, will not fade away, for far too many powerful individuals have perished here.

Over time, their lingering resentment did not completely dissipate, leading to this unique phenomenon.

No cultivator dared to approach; this complex obsession could plunge everyone below the Integration stage into a state of confusion.

The malice of those who died will drag every living person into it, until they lose themselves and become soulless walking corpses.

This is the Execution Platform, whose fearsome reputation has spread throughout the Three Realms!
Eight innate deities, three ancient beasts, hundreds of powerful beings from other races, and countless powerful human beings all perished on the stage.

It was originally a supreme treasure forged by the Heavenly Emperor, and with the added enhancement of obsession, even a seventh-level perfected body tempering cultivator who was brought to the Execution Platform could not withstand the second strike.

When his fearsome reputation was at its peak, those captured cultivators preferred to commit suicide rather than face the execution platform.

He was slashed by the Immortal-Slaying Flying Dagger, his soul was annihilated, and he had no chance of reincarnation.

Amidst the rumbling wind and thunder, a plain-looking man in white robes, carrying a large gourd, walked over from afar.

The various strange phenomena at the Execution Platform were of no concern to him and posed no obstacle whatsoever.

Even after they had reached the foot of the stone platform, the curses became so clear, as if they had just been shouted in their ears.

One after another, illusory figures rushed out, their faces covered in blood, some headless, some cut in half at the waist, dragging half of their bodies as they moved.

All of them were powerful figures from various races who died on the Execution Platform, showcasing the formidable martial prowess of the Dao Court during its heyday.

The resentment and hatred materialized, wave after wave, enough to make even a Nascent Soul cultivator's heart tremble and their face change color.

The man in white robes walked to a spot where he could reach the execution platform, clasped his hands together in prayer, and took down the large gourd from his back.

"When the Heavenly Emperor was alive, everyone in the Three Realms was terrified at the mention of the Execution Platform, fearing that it would be their turn to go up there... But today, it is as desolate as a wasteland, and even activating it once again is a luxury."

To maintain the Execution Platform, at least one Celestial Venerable-level cultivator must be stationed there year-round, supplemented by a dozen or so Nascent Soul cultivators for it to function properly.

The Dao Court still has the power to spare, but it's impossible for it to pay such a huge price for a single Execution Platform. The other departments can't function properly.

Similarly, the Heavenly Palace also attempted to take over the Execution Platform to demonstrate its legitimacy, but abandoned it in less than a century.

Later, the Daoist court took a huge rock from this place, transported it back, and used it to build a replica of the Execution Platform. It took countless rare and precious materials to achieve the level of a Purple Mansion treasure.

The large gourd was placed upright on the ground, the stopper was removed, and endless golden energy was emitted, containing all the world's most dangerous weapons.

"At the Dragon Flower Grand Gathering at Jade Pool, all spirits are united in spreading the Dharma... The immortals offer longevity wishes, and the saints raise their cups in celebration..."

The man in white robes chanted in a low voice, and wisps of malevolent energy came from all directions, rushing into the mouth of the gourd.

The malevolent energy on the Execution Platform is the result of countless years of accumulation, a byproduct of those malicious obsessions.

Attached to those three gleaming Immortal-Slaying Flying Knives, the ferocious aura was enough to increase the power of some sixth-tier magic weapons by one level.

Of course, the fact that the magical artifact was invaded by evil energy and its body cracked and disintegrated is another story.

The large yellow gourd swallowed hundreds of streams of evil energy without showing any outward signs of abnormality; in its place, the golden energy inside grew louder and louder.

It was like thousands of weapons clashing and colliding, creating a tremendous din; you could tell this gourd was no ordinary object.

The man in white remained calm, as if he had foreseen this situation.

After an unknown amount of time, the dark clouds in the sky thinned out a bit, and the giant gourd finally felt full and began to jump around on its own.

It let out a burp, then bounced back to the white-robed man's feet.

The remaining malevolent aura in the sky has re-emerged, as if nothing had changed.

"The ancient Golden Illusion Technique can only be quickly mastered by using the Execution Platform. If you change the scene, you can't master it without using thousands of damaged divine weapons. You also have to constantly kill living beings to cultivate ferocity."

The man in white robes picked up the large yellow gourd and shook it with satisfaction, a hint of joy appearing on his face as he listened to the piercing clang of metal clashing inside.

"It is said that the past 100,000 years have been dominated by the sword, and the glory days of our Five Elements magic have passed for too long. But as long as we are united, we are not necessarily inferior to the prominent sects of today."

Three hundred thousand years ago, spiritual objects for body tempering were frequently produced, and great medicines would even fall from the sky, making body tempering cultivators the most popular.

At its most extreme, two of the five sons of the human race were at the seventh level of perfect body tempering.

Five hundred thousand years ago, the five elements rotated and were exceptionally active, giving rise to the Seven Mountains Sect, which is famous for its changes in the five elements.

Nowadays, every now and then, celestial stones suitable for sword forging fall down, and the difficulty of breaking through in swordsmanship has been significantly reduced, with sword intent becoming more closely connected to the Great Dao.

This is the natural order of things, which cannot be reversed by human power.

However, this does not mean that other cultivators have no way out; they simply cannot catch a ride on the wave of opportunity and must continue their normal cultivation.

The Ancient Golden Illusion Technique ranks among the top ten of all the supernatural abilities of the Seven Mountains Sect, and its pure destructive power is second to none.

Furthermore, since the golden energy can transform into any divine weapon, it can also benefit from the light of swordsmanship, giving it an even greater advantage in this era.

The white-robed man was able to walk down the Execution Platform with his perfected Void Refinement cultivation, not only because he was exceptionally talented, but also because he had a good background.

This gourd grew from a celestial vine at the beginning of creation, and after being tempered by earth, water, wind, and fire, it can contain all things in the world.

It was originally used to store the heaviest pure yin water in the Earthly Immortal Realm; a single gourd could hold enough water to submerge a small thousand world.

Later, it changed owners and was filled with the most insidious Primordial Poison Flame in the Immortal Realm. While other containers would be corroded inside, it was the only one that did not have to worry about leakage or wear.

After changing hands several times, it ended up in the hands of the Seven Mountains Sect's predecessors, but its usefulness was not discovered at first.

It wasn't until the emergence of the ancient Golden Illusion Technique that this great supernatural power, with its sharpness capable of penetrating golden energy, needed a sufficiently sturdy container, which led to its being conceived.

With the yellow gourd, the difficulty of cultivating this great supernatural power has been reduced many times over.

Otherwise, relying solely on the golden energy attached to the divine weapon, it would be extremely difficult to cultivate it.

The idea of ​​extracting the evil energy from the Execution Platform to accelerate cultivation was a huge shortcut.

With the large yellow gourd in hand, before the golden energy inside was exhausted, he could be regarded as a cultivator with the level of a combined attack.

"Slay me, you must slay me... slay me..."

Just as the man in white was about to leave, he suddenly heard a different sentence amidst the various curses.

This voice also carries a deep obsession, but it is not one of resentment or hatred; rather, it is one of earnestness and anxiety.

Aside from those like him who need to stay under the Execution Platform for a long time to cultivate supernatural powers, and who have a special treasure that protects them from the impact of malicious obsessions, other cultivators would find this to be extremely rare, perhaps even close to zero.

I doubt anyone would stay and listen carefully to what difference there is between these curses.

"A request to be killed? Is that even a strange request?"

The man in white robes was taken aback, but there were far too many powerful figures who had died here, so it was not surprising that a freak had appeared.

"After leaving Tianyuan, the Pavilion Master of Tianjian Pavilion entered the Demon Realm and killed three seventh-level demons. According to Master's guess, he has widened the gap with the other four of the Five Sons of the Human Race... Personal strength is one aspect, but the improvement of swordsmanship also has a great impact."

"Our sect has been declining for too long. If we don't speak up soon, we'll soon disappear from the ranks of the top-tier forces in the Immortal Realm. We might lose our advantage in the great upheavals to come... My master wants me to challenge the direct descendants of several other sects to make a name for myself. How about I start by practicing against the disciples of the Heavenly Palace?"

He carefully put the large yellow gourd back on his back, and the white-robed man's not particularly outstanding features radiated confidence.

The disciple with the highest overall aptitude in the Seven Mountains Sect in 300,000 years, regardless of his talent in the Great Dao, his comprehension of magic, or his talent in combat, is a genius.

In terms of just one aspect, one could trace back several generations to find a disciple who surpassed him.

Such a well-rounded and balanced group of disciples is truly unique.

In other sects, such comprehensive training may not be necessary; as long as one has a strong enough specialty, they can still receive optimal training.

But the Seven Mountains Sect is different. It was born from the Five Elements magic, and its several fundamental techniques all require the use of skills to advance the Dao. No part of the technique can be missing.

He is the only one who can bring great glory to the Seven Sacred Mountains sect.

……

Light shone into the dark room, and the middle-aged man in the green robe and the young man in the purple robe woke up at the same time, their eyes meeting.

"Fire Lotus Child is dead?"

"Gao Zhen's divine seed has also returned to the map of the gods and spirits..."

“Three people who had reached the peak of the Void Refinement stage died, and twenty-seven people who had reached the peak of the Nascent Soul stage… no, thirty-three, it’s become fifty-seven…”

The casualty figures kept fluctuating, clearly perceptible without leaving the Dragon Pool; there was no more accurate feedback than the Ghost and God Position Chart.

The crucial formation at Rotten Axe Mountain showed no reaction, and there was no powerful aura emanating from the island, yet large numbers of disciples perished.

"Shao Yang personally took action, and he even mastered some new supernatural power!"

The middle-aged man in purple robes spoke with certainty: only by combining forces could this level be achieved.

The Fire Lotus Child and his companions are quite powerful. Although their supernatural abilities are singular and highly homogeneous, when they activate them, it's as if they've cultivated for millions of years, leaving no flaws whatsoever.

Being instantly killed without even having time to send a warning can only mean that you've encountered an enemy on a completely different level.

When Rotten Axe Mountain was first established, Shao Yang did not make a move when 'Lu Zhengyang' first appeared in Five Dragons Sea, nor did he make a move when the battle with Four Views Island was raging. Today's decisive arrival, coupled with previous intelligence, can be used to deduce the source of Shao Yang's confidence.

They must have mastered powerful supernatural abilities or obtained some supreme treasure, and felt that their strength had greatly improved, before they dared to take the initiative to come to my door.

"Perfect timing! Time to test the sword I've nurtured for so many years!"

The two stood up at the same time, smiled at each other, and returned hand in hand to Shaohua Cave.

Faced with the combined entity, the two avatars, which were only at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage, were far too fragile.

A single glance, a single breath, and he could be shattered to pieces; his mere presence on stage only adds to the trouble.

The original body returned to the real world, and its aura was still fluctuating. It took several breaths for it to stabilize at the peak of the Void Refinement stage.

"I've tried many battles in the lower realms, from Core Formation to Nascent Soul, and from Nascent Soul to Deity Transformation... I never thought that even after coming to the Earthly Immortal Realm, I still couldn't escape the fate of fighting against opponents of higher levels. Why can't I just cultivate peacefully to the Integration stage?"

The world around Bai Zichen was still undergoing subtle adjustments, as if the void and the real world were not completely in sync, with a blurry, chaotic boundary.

After shaking back and forth a couple of times, it returns to normal and truly arrives in this world.

boom!
In Bai Zichen's line of sight, a tall figure suddenly appeared, filling the sky and the earth, wearing a twelve-tassel crown and a robe draped with the sun, moon and stars.

Surrounded by purple aura and imbued with morality, he instantly became the center of the entire world.

The primordial energy of heaven and earth, the yin and yang, the five elements and the four symbols all revolve around him.

"Shao Yang!"

Even though they had never met before, Bai Zichen immediately confirmed the identity of the person who came. This was the first time he had faced a powerful cultivator at the Fusion Stage who was filled with killing intent and was determined to fight to the death.
