Perfect World: Start by traveling to the Wuwang Mansion

Chapter 254: The War That Lasted Ten Thousand Years

Densely packed in the void, the mighty power they connected together caused the void to tremble slightly.

Just as Shi Qingyun was secretly on guard, a man slowly walked out from among the many cultivators above the sky.

A stern gaze fell on him, and he felt an extreme sense of crisis at that moment.

Tu Tao looked at the white bones lying at Shi Qingyun's feet, his eyes flashed with brilliance, and then he turned his gaze to him.

"Someone from the Immortal Ancient Realm?"

"What do you want to do in this God-forsaken place?"

There was a flash of red and white in his eyes, and he could see through Shi Qingyun's background at a glance.

At the same time, he couldn't help feeling a little surprised. His current cultivation level could not recover to the previous level of Escape One, but his understanding of the Great Dao had indeed not diminished.

He had already sensed the aura of the forbidden way from Shi Qingyun, and in his heart he felt both joy at seeing a Nine Heavens cultivator again and a sense of relief.

"I don't know how many years have passed."

“Has such a genius appeared in the Immortal Ancient Realm? At this age, he is even more talented than Master Wuzhong.”

"It seems that the Immortal Ancient World has not fallen in these tens of thousands of years."

"These tens of thousands of years of time and this battle are worth it."

Shi Qingyun felt the sound like a huge bell ringing in his ears. Just one word caused the surrounding avenue to become unusually active.

The Tai Chi Dao Seal that had originally emerged also slowly retracted, although in his perception, the man only had the cultivation of Divine Fire.

But whether it is the understanding of the great Dao or the combat experience, they are superior to him.

"Is this guy some old monster reborn?"

"But it's not invincible."

He swept his gaze across the sky full of cultivators, and his figure flashed and appeared in mid-air, with the power of divine fire bursting out from his body.

"I came for the Tao, and I came to seek the Tao."

"I have heard that there are great treasures here, so I came here to take a look."

"I wonder who you are?"

Tu Tao looked at Shi Qingyun with admiration in his eyes. Then a gleam of light flashed in his eyes, signaling the other party to come over to him.

Shi Qingyun hesitated for a moment, the space under his feet folded up, and he just took a step forward and landed next to Tu Tao.

"I am Tu Tao, and I have been staying in this desolate place for tens of thousands of years."

"I never thought I would meet someone from the Ancient Immortal Realm here today."

When Shi Qingyun heard this, he was shocked, but after looking at the monks around him who looked like zombies, he reluctantly believed it.

Immediately, he couldn't help but ask Tu Tao, his curiosity could not be concealed in his eyes.

Tu Tao felt the familiar aura coming from Shi Qingyun and felt very happy. He did not hide anything and told him everything about this world.

"I was originally a proud person in the ancient immortal world. When the war came, I thought it was just an ordinary war."

"Until the battle line completely collapsed, Lord Wuzhong and others disappeared one after another."

"I led a group of monks to join the battlefield and followed an immortal king to resist the enemy."

Tu Tao seemed to have not spoken to others for a long time. When he talked about his youth and his roaming the world, a rare flash of pride appeared in his eyes.

"I said goodbye to my Taoist partner and relatives and came here, but I didn't expect that there would be no chance to go back."

"I think everything has turned to dust by now."

As he said this, the guilt and sadness in his eyes could hardly be concealed, and a sense of sadness emanated from him.

"Master Immortal King has severely injured the Immortal King from another realm, but he himself has also reached the point of being annihilated and destroyed."

"In the end, the Immortal King used up his last bit of strength to form this great formation, suppressing the Immortal King from another realm, and wasting away his essence and soul every moment."

"And we are also fortunate to be able to survive like this under the power of the Immortal King."

"After tens of thousands of years of fighting, the souls of the remaining cultivators have all dissipated in one battle after another, leaving only their unyielding fighting spirit to control their bodies in battle."

Tu Tao's voice became softer and softer, but his eyes became brighter and brighter, and the strong fighting spirit in his body was also aroused.

The fighting spirit that has spanned thousands of years is still high today.

Those monks who originally had gloomy, numb faces and low breath also had bits of blood-red light shining on their bodies.

Waves of terrifying power burst out from them, and their pale eyes turned red again.

Tu Tao stared straight ahead, tightly holding the spear that had accompanied him for tens of thousands of years. Ancient and complex runes were flashing on the blood-colored armor.

"I know your intention. It is of no use to a dead person like us."

"As long as you do me a favor, I can give you the Spiritual Liquid!"

"You can think about it."

Tu Tao looked at Shi Qingyun without blinking, his tone very solemn and serious, and he really hoped that he could agree.

However, as a fellow member of the Ancient Immortal Realm, he was unwilling to use the so-called righteousness to force Shi Qingyun, which was what he despised the most.

Shi Qingyun couldn't help but fall into deep thought when he heard this. Although he respected these cultivators who had fought for the Nine Heavens for tens of thousands of years, he still had to be cautious when it came to his life.

“The greater the risk, the greater the reward.”

"I'd better listen to what he wants me to do first before deciding."

Just when Shi Qingyun was about to ask, Tu Tao spoke first:

"I guess you must have seen the black fog when you came here."

"That black mist is the source of power for those bones, and within that black mist is the skeleton of an Immortal King."

When Shi Qingyun heard about the corpse of the Immortal King, his expression changed. Could it be that he wanted him to destroy the corpse?
If it really was the corpse of the Immortal King, it would probably have been crushed by the power emanating from it before it even got close.

"On top of the Immortal King's corpse is a black soul crystal made up of murderous aura, resentment, and dead souls."

"And it is the source of the black fog. I want you to help me break it!"

Tu Tao spoke to Shi Qingyun word by word, and when he mentioned the black fog, the hatred in his eyes could not be hidden at all.

"The power of the Immortal King is unfathomable. With my limited divine fire realm, I'm afraid I'll die before I even reach it."

"How can we talk about shattering and destroying it?"

Shi Qingyun faced Tu Tao's scorching gaze, looked helpless, and said to him.

"You don't need to worry about these. The immortal corpse has already been suppressed by the spirit-absorbing formation and can't cause any trouble."

"You just need to get close to the crystal and absorb the life energy."

"And you know exactly what I'm waiting for."

"But if you don't want to go, that's fine. Everything will be settled after this battle."

"It's just to add an extra layer of insurance."

Seeing Shi Qingyun's hesitation, Tu Tao did not say anything more. The fact was indeed what he said, but he always had a bad feeling in his heart. That's why he asked Shi Qingyun for a deal.

After Shi Qingyun understood the cause and effect of the situation, he made a decision in his mind. With Tu Tao and others holding the enemy back, the difficulty would be much lower.

"In that case, I am willing to lend a helping hand."

"Help to annihilate the enemy."

When Tu Tao saw that Shi Qingyun agreed, he patted his shoulder happily, with satisfaction in his eyes without any concealment.

"Tu Tao, I haven't seen you for ten thousand years. Has your brain been corroded by the passage of time?"

"You actually asked a young boy for help."

"Hahahaha, what a coward."

Just when Shi Qingyun and the other person were still discussing some of the details, a sound like the sound of a Huangzhong Dalu echoed from afar.

When the two of them looked closely, they saw Tu Ran floating in the air, with such extraordinary power that the void was shaking.

Above the sky, the Spirit Absorbing Array was operating madly, with streams of pure spiritual energy descending and smashing straight towards Tu Ran.

But just as it landed on him, it was swallowed up by a rising black mist, and wisps of mist lingered around him.

When Tu Tao saw the person coming, his expression instantly became much more solemn, especially when he sensed the strange aura from him, the ominous feeling in his heart became stronger.

"Tu Ran, your mouth still stinks after not seeing you for ten thousand years."

"Has lying among the corpses every day already made you taste good?"

Tu Tao's expression became calm again, and he retorted to Tu Ran mercilessly, his tone full of contempt.

"you……"

Tu Ran's expression instantly turned gloomy, and he stared at the two of them. If looks could kill, they would have died countless times by now.

As the conversation went back and forth, it was suddenly filled with tension and the atmosphere suddenly became tense.

"Humph, just talking tough before dying."

Tu Ran snorted coldly, stretched out his hand and spread out the tattered and bloody cloak behind him. Suddenly, wisps of black air seeped out in the void.

The already dim world became even darker at this moment, and the soul-sucking formation above the sky flickered for a moment.

In a short while, the place where Tu Ran had just stood had turned into a dark world, with thick black fog covering the sky.

A bloodthirsty and oppressive feeling swept out from it, and dense blood-red light flashed in the black fog.

As waves of terrifying power erupted, those blood-red lanterns slowly walked out of the black fog, revealing those horrific white skeletons.

Skeletons stood in the void, with a ball of black air constantly churning in their bodies, and their blood-red eyes gave people a great feeling of oppression.

And just as these skeletons appeared, the fighting spirit of the many monks behind Shi Qingyun also rose.

The two sides confronted each other, and the powerful force caused the void between the two sides to break into pieces, and terrifying thunder flashed.

"Tu Tao, the grudge that has entangled us for tens of thousands of years should finally be resolved."

"I will give you another chance. If you join my clan and lead us to escape the cursed land, I will definitely grant you immortality."

"By then, your cultivation will be restored immediately with the help of our Immortal King."

Tu Tao was already accustomed to this kind of temptation. His expression showed no emotion at all. He just looked at Tu Ran quietly with a fanatical look on his face.

"It doesn't matter where you die, man."

"As soon as I entered this battlefield, I knew I would let down many people in my life."

"But I will never abandon the land that gave birth to me and raised me."

"So, Tu Ran, let's fight!"

"This is our destination, the best destination!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he led many monks to rush forward. They swarmed forward like locusts, and the monks rushed forward in an array, blocking out the sky and the sun.

Suddenly seeing Tu Tao who was as difficult as ever, the corners of his mouth curled up strangely, and his eyes were full of madness.

"What a bullshit destination!"

"I want longevity, transcendence, and immortality!"

"Since you don't want to follow the right path, then just stay here forever!"

A blood-red ancient sword surrounded by black air appeared in his hand. As soon as he grasped it, sharp sword energy flew out.

Everything that stood in his way was turned into dust in an instant, and he stomped heavily on the void and shot out directly.

"Clang clang clang!"

Tu Tao and Tu Ran were the first to collide with each other. The fierce battle made it impossible for anyone to get close to the two within a few miles.

Although their cultivation was only at the Divine Fire Realm, every move they made was in accordance with the Great Dao, and they could use all kinds of Taoist methods at will.

The fierceness of controlling the world with the sword and the dominance of ruling the world with the gun.

The battle between the two of them once again refreshed Shi Qingyun's understanding of the great Dao and the realm.

His eyes were filled with shock as he watched the two of them fighting in the sky. He wondered how long it would take him to figure it out on his own.

However, now is not the time to comprehend all this here. The shadow of Kunpeng emerged behind him and rushed directly into the black cloud.

His figure shuttled across the battlefield like a ghost, killing all the skeletons on the ground with one punch and one palm.

Suddenly seeing the shadow of Kunpeng behind Shi Qingyun, a terrifying and murderous light suddenly flashed in his eyes, and he immediately ordered the white bones to stop Shi Qingyun.

Feeling the number of skeletons coming towards him suddenly increase, the pressure on his body also suddenly increased.

"Assist Fellow Daoist Shi to break the siege!"

At Tu Tao's command, those cultivators involuntarily gathered towards Shi Qingyun's direction.

The battle suddenly fell into a stalemate.

Shi Qingyun felt the dense white bones in front of him, and knew that it would be extremely difficult to enter the black cloud.

"In that case, let's fight our way out!"

The might of the divine fire in his body burst out without reservation, a surge of fighting spirit emanated from him, and wisps of blood-red mist echoed around him.

The murderous aura turned into substance, and his murderous intent was no less than those of the warriors.

"How many people will be killed with such horrible murderous intent? It's a pity that such a genius is going to perish here."

"Hahaha"

Tu Ran, who had been paying attention to this place, was also surprised by the power that Shi Qingyun burst out, but he was just surprised and did not take it to heart at all.

With so much power at stake, how big a ripple can Shi Qingyun, a small stone, cause?
Tu Tao ignored his words and just kept waving the spear in his hand at him, murderous intent spreading out with every move.

Shi Qingyun's body shook slightly, and a huge sun rose up behind him. He swung his sword and slashed it away.

The skeletons surrounding him melted instantly like snow in the first rays of the sun.
