Immortal Demonic Path

Chapter 295 Fragments of the Immortal Realm

Lan Xin'er bid farewell to her father and, surrounded by her maids, returned to her palace.

Not long after, a maid came in and brought books.

Lan Xin'er flipped through the new book, which contained information about fragments of the Immortal Realm.

The celestial realm was shattered, with countless fragments drifting in the void.

Over countless years, many fragments of the immortal realm have been found, but some remain elusive in the void.

"Has this fragment of the Immortal Realm evolved into a star?"

A strange look appeared on Lan Xin'er's face: "Being able to evolve stars, it's not much smaller than what the Five Great Sages sent out back then, is it?"

The fact that the Five Great Sages sent the Lesser Immortal Realm away was no secret.

"Back then, when we sent the Little Immortal Realm out, my Space Clan did our part, but the Five Great Saints didn't leave any benefits for our clan." Lan Xin'er said angrily.

Back then, their Space Clan provided a great deal of assistance to the Five Great Saints.

Even though it was help given out of necessity, it was still help.

"In general, there are old monsters sealed away in the fragments of the immortal realm. Hopefully, the old monster sealed away this time won't be too strong."

Lan Xin'er pondered.

Those old monsters have terrible tempers; if they are disturbed, it will be a devastating disaster.

In the past, some families, while exploring fragments of the immortal realm, disturbed ancient beings that had been sealed away for centuries.

After that ancient being resurrected, it didn't waste any words and immediately began a massacre.

Those families, too, became nourishment for the old monster, disappearing into the passage of time.

This fragment of the Immortal Realm is very large, and there's a high chance it contains ancient monsters that have been sealed away for generations, and their strength will be considerable.

According to the book, this fragment of the immortal realm is filled with terrifying sword energy.

"Sword energy? No wonder the Sword Lord has returned."

Lan Xin'er frowned: "If the Sword Lord benefits from this, his strength will probably increase even further. The Sword Realm is truly a great opportunity."

The fragments of the immortal realm, filled with sword energy, should contain ancient sword-wielding traditions.

If we can obtain these sword-wielding inheritances, then the sword world may very well surpass other families and even its heyday.

This is not good news!

Originally, the major powers maintained a balance, but if the Sword Realm becomes the dominant power with many strong contenders, this balance will be broken.

  

Moreover, the new heir, Sword Lord, is notoriously arrogant.

"Never mind, that's something for Father to worry about."

Lan Xin'er closed the book and opened another book—The Five Great Sacred Deeds.

The record states that the Five Great Sages embarked on the path to immortality from the starry sky.

To establish the Nine Cities of Immortality and resist the evil immortals.

The supernatural powers and chaotic immortal power of the Five Great Sages are also recorded in great detail.

The Five Great Saints' might suppressed the path to immortality, causing countless forces to bow down, and even the Space Clan lived in their shadow.

During that period, the prestige of the Five Great Sages shook the path to immortality.

Whether they were immortals or wicked immortals, they all trembled with fear at the mere mention of their name.

Tens of thousands of years later, the lifespan of the five saints came to an end.

Everyone was waiting for the five saints to die of old age, and then they would vie to eat them.

But as a result, the Five Great Sages disappeared, and an even more terrifying being appeared.

It intimidated all the major forces, causing the evil immortals to flee in disarray, and continued its advance into the starry sky.

Since then, six of the Nine Cities of Longevity have been emptied, and the remaining three cities are now only filled with killing formations.

Legend has it that there is an inner city in the Ninth City, but no one has ever been inside.

Only the one who claimed to be the successor of the Dragon King Ao Yu entered the inner city, but he died tragically there.

Lan Xin'er fell into deep thought: "Where does that Dragon King's descendant come from?"

Could it be the sealed place of the Dragon King Ao Yu?

Or is it that Ao Yu has already perished, but merely picked up the inheritance?

Lan Xin'er kept sending relevant books, hoping to find clues.

But as a result, there were no clues.

There is no relevant record in the Lan family's books.

Lan Xin'er had no choice but to give up her exploration and wait until later to ask her father to see if he knew the answer.

Sitting cross-legged in meditation.

Two days later, a maid came to report:

"Miss, Young Master Nie Yun requests an audience," a maidservant said respectfully as she arrived.

"Nie Yun?" Lan Xin'er pondered for a moment, "Please invite him in."

"Yes," the maid replied respectfully.

A moment later, the maid arrived with the young man in white robes.

"Brother Nie Yun," Lan Xin'er bowed slightly and said, "Have you come today with any clues?"

"I went back and looked through the records, and found information about the Dragon King Ao Yu."

Nie Yun said, "The one from three thousand years ago emerged from a spatial turbulence. Behind that spatial turbulence should be the Dragon King, which involves the Dao of Space. That's where Junior Sister Lan comes in."

"Where is that spatial turbulence?" Lan Xin'er asked.

Nie Yun didn't hide anything and sent the location of the spatial turbulence to Lan Xin'er: "After we explore the Immortal Realm fragments, we can go and investigate."

"Mm." Lan Xin'er nodded.

"I'll go back and prepare now. Junior Sister Lan, you should also get ready. This fragment of the Immortal Realm is no ordinary object," Nie Yun said.

"Take care, senior brother." Lan Xin'er gave a slight bow, watched him leave, and couldn't help but call out, "Senior brother."

Nie Yun stopped in his tracks and turned around, asking, "Junior Sister, what is it?"

"Sword Lord is back," Lan Xin'er said in a low voice.

"Let him come back if he wants, just don't provoke him," Nie Yun said.

Lan Xin'er wanted to say something, but ultimately remained silent.

With a soft sigh, he realized he could only offer a subtle hint; if he were too explicit, his father would be angry and it might cause trouble.

"What has the sword world taken a liking to about those two families?"

Lan Xin'er was puzzled, but she could only suppress her thoughts.

Putting aside her thoughts, Lan Xin'er focused on her cultivation.

On the sixth day, a maid woke Lan Xin'er: "Miss, the master requests your presence."

"Understood." Lan Xin'er got up and left.

After leaving the celestial palace, they arrived at the palace where the middle-aged man was located, along with two elderly men and three young men.

"I have met my fifth grandfather and sixth grandfather, and my three elder brothers."

Lan Xin'er bowed in greeting.

The two old men nodded and said, "Let's go, we will travel with you this time."

"On this trip to the Immortal Realm Fragment, you must stay close to us and not cause any trouble," the middle-aged man said solemnly.

"Don't worry, Patriarch, we will definitely not do anything reckless," the three young men said in a deep voice.

Within the fragments of the immortal realm, there are usually ancient monsters that have been sealed away for ages. If they act recklessly, they will only face certain death.

Spatial power fluctuated, and the Lan family patriarch tore through the void, leading them into the space.

Inside Lan Xin'er's body, Li Changsheng once again sensed the fluctuations of the Great Dao of Space.

The head of the Lan family, an immortal being, could open spatial passages with ease; his mastery and application of space far surpassed that of others.

It's something I should learn from!

In the blink of an eye, they had arrived in a void.

A distant star floats in the void, its surface permeated with various laws, leaking out and sealing it off.

The rich, ethereal aura had turned into mist.

It's no less than a miniature fairyland!

In the distant void, an intense sword light shone, and figures rushed towards them.

"The Space Clan is indeed one step ahead."

An aged voice rang out, and a sword light transformed into an old man with white hair and beard, and long eyebrows and beard that drooped down to his chin.

"For us, the Space Clan, the only advantage left is to escape."

The Lan family head bowed slightly and said, "Comparable to your Sword Realm, the White-browed Sword Ancestor has already touched upon the Immortal King realm, hasn't he?"

The White-Browed Sword Ancestor laughed and said, "I've only just touched upon it. It's still a long way from becoming a Celestial King."

As they were talking, five more sword lights arrived. They were all young people, and the young man in the lead had an arrogant air about him and exuded a sharp sword intent from his very bones.

Sword Master!

"The Sword Ancestor is truly confident, coming alone."

An aged voice resounded, signaling the arrival of yet another force.

"Ha, White Eyebrows, you're still alive! The Great Sage Equaling Heaven didn't even kill you back then!"

A pink light filled the air as a woman in red arrived, accompanied by three young women.

The White-Browed Sword Ancestor's gaze turned cold: "You mere Great Sage Equaling Heaven can't kill me, the Sword Ancestor!"

"Ha." The woman in red scoffed coldly, "I wonder who it was that knelt down and begged for mercy back then, keeping the Sword Realm closed for tens of thousands of years, only daring to emerge after the Five Great Saints disappeared."

"Jun Luo, do you want to die?" the White-browed Sword Ancestor said coldly.

That period was a disgrace to the sword world, and also a disgrace to him!

Back then, the Great Sage Equaling Heaven almost wiped out the Sword Realm with his own strength.

In the end, the Sword Realm did beg for mercy, remaining sealed off for tens of thousands of years, afraid to emerge.

This time, the White-browed Sword Ancestor has come out to wash away the shame of the past!

Of course, it's not about finding the Five Great Sages to cleanse you; you can't find them, and even if you did, you couldn't defeat them.

Then we have no choice but to find these forces and establish our authority!

"The mortal world is not afraid of your sword realm!" Jun Luo said coldly, showing him no respect whatsoever.

"Alright, enough talk, let's focus on the Immortal Realm fragments."

The Lan family head spoke up to smooth things over, looking ahead: "More friends have arrived."

Rays of light traversed the void, each one a descendant of an Immortal Immortal leading a junior Dao Immortal.

Nie Yun was among them, along with several other forces, both large and small.

Some powerful forces, unafraid of the Sword Realm and disrespectful to the White-browed Sword Ancestor, did not hesitate to reopen his old wounds.

The White-Browed Sword Ancestor was furious, but he did not retaliate, because the Sword Realm was indeed powerless against these powerful forces at present.

However, this fragment of the Immortal Realm may very well contain a sword-wielding inheritance!

Once you get the chance to advance to the Immortal King level, everything will change.

"Everyone's here, let's begin, the usual routine?" Jun Luo's voice rang out.

"It's the same old rule, we'll start it and the younger disciples can hone their skills," the Lan family head said calmly. "We'll first scout ahead and search for any long-forgotten ancient monsters."

"Alright, let's get started."

The White-browed Sword Ancestor struck first, unleashing a sword beam entwined with Dao patterns as it slashed towards the fragments of the Immortal Realm.

The Lan family head, Jun Luo, and the other powerful figures also made their moves.

Streams of immortal light arrived in the stars of the Immortal Realm, transforming into a vortex that forcibly isolated the leaking laws of the Immortal Realm.

"Let's go," said the head of the Lan family.

The White-browed Sword Ancestor transformed into a sword light and arrived at the vortex first. A towering sword beam flew out to support the vortex.

The other immortal immortals also took action to stabilize the vortex.

A sharp sword aura permeated the air, and in the void, there seemed to be a vast kingly aura, far surpassing that of immortals, filling every corner.

"The aura of a Celestial King?"

The White-Browed Sword Ancestor was overjoyed: "The Immortal King Sword Path, there must be an opportunity for the Immortal King Sword Path here."

Jun Luo's expression turned solemn: "Don't be too happy yet. This Immortal King Sword Dao is so clear, it may be a sealed Immortal King old monster."

The White-Browed Sword Ancestor's expression hardened; it really might be true.

"If it is a sealed Immortal King, it is impossible for him to reveal his sword intent unless he has been resurrected."

The Lan family head pondered, "But a Celestial King wouldn't revive for no reason; it's highly likely that it's a Celestial King-level sword treasure."

"Speculation is useless, little ones. The tempering begins." The White-browed Sword Ancestor looked at the youths behind him: "Go, accept the tempering of the Immortal King's sword intent, and become Immortal Venerables."

"Yes, Sword Ancestor," Sword Lord and the others replied respectfully.

The younger generations of the other families also transformed into streams of light and entered the celestial star realm.

The White-browed Sword Ancestor and others then flew through the air, heading towards the depths of the Immortal Realm's stars.

The celestial realm is filled with stars, lush vegetation, and abundant medicinal herbs.

In the distance, mountain peaks are broken and ravines spread out, indicating that a great battle once broke out long ago.

As Lan Xin'er descended from the sky, she also felt immense pressure.

Suppressed by the Immortal King's sword intent, her Dao Immortal strength could only reach the peak of the Heavenly Immortal realm.

The others were in a similar situation, and at that time, the cultivators of the Sword Realm were not suppressed much.

Since we both practice swordsmanship, I gained the upper hand!

"We won't stay with you." Sword Lord raised his head slightly, glancing contemptuously at the crowd. "Let's go, this is our opportunity."

Several Dao Immortals from the Sword Realm nodded and left with the Sword Lord.

"Hmph, you're just lucky." The immortal from the Mortal World Dao Sea snorted coldly and got up to leave.

"Xin'er, where are we going?" The three young men looked at Lan Xin'er.

Lan Xin'er shook her head slightly: "I don't know either, and my father didn't give an explanation."

"Junior Sister Lan, let's act together," Nie Yun said.

The young man in black robes who had been there earlier also came to their side, along with several other young men: "Let's go together, it'll be safer."

Lan Xin'er hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said, "That's fine, it's better to have more people to help each other."

Ultimately, I couldn't bear to refuse, so I didn't.

Even if the Sword Realm is rampant, they probably won't target the Space Clan, right?

They are a space race, renowned for being the best at traveling across space, making them difficult to kill.

They also cooperated with various forces through the art of space.

The three parties joined forces and moved forward.

Before long, a wide river appeared ahead, and flowing in the river was—sword energy!

Streams of sword energy converged into a surging river; the sharp sword intent was so intense that just one glance was enough to sting one's eyes.

"Retreat quickly!" Lan Xin'er's expression suddenly changed, and she retreated rapidly.

bang

As soon as he finished speaking, a terrifying sword light flew out from the river, engulfing them all like a torrent.

Lan Xin'er immediately used the Dao of Space, causing the surrounding space to layer and distort the void.

A torrent of sword light shattered space. As streaks of cold light flashed, several cultivators from both sides were a beat too slow and their bodies were cleaved into a bloody mist, leaving no trace of their corpses.

The sword light shattered more than ten spatial rifts before finally disappearing.

Lan Xin'er's face paled, secretly relieved, while silently asking herself, "Who are you? Why are you inside me?"

A voice inside her reminded her just in time.

Otherwise, she would definitely have been one of the corpses just now.

However, there was no response.

"Thank you for reminding us, Sister Xin'er. Otherwise, we would have been in danger," the three young members of the Space Clan said with lingering fear.

Nie Yun and the black-robed youth looked sorrowful. This was only the beginning, and now only they remained of their family.
