A person in the heavens, starting with a Chaos Emperor Dao Fruit

To be precise, it was Zhenyuan Immortal King who knew where it was.

This Celestial King from the Fallen Emperor Era was extremely learned, knowing far more than the average Celestial King.

He is proficient in all kinds of supreme ancient arts and techniques, and he also knows these kinds of secret knowledge like the back of his hand.

It would be an injustice if he didn't die, because he's practically the template for a destined old man.

Both strength and erudition are meant to better assist the protagonist.

The old man will only lose his role and complete his mission after the protagonist reaches the pinnacle.

Only after that did the old man take off.

"Fellow Daoist seems quite confident," Pan Wang said with a smile.

"Just a little bit," Yunhua said modestly, observing the expressions of the kings.

"Fellow Daoists, if you are willing, you may also come with me. Perhaps we will share a destiny with each other."

Chapter 1363 The Ancient Land of Heaven

The kings were intrigued, and even the Holy King and the others wanted to go and see for themselves.

In the end, all I could say was, "Thank you for your help." There was simply no way to refuse.

The futons that had just warmed up cooled down again, and Yunhua and the others left the Panwang territory.

Then Zhenyuan Immortal King gave them directions.

This time, when Yunhua went to the Immortal Realm, he brought Zhenyuan Immortal King, Crystal Skull, and the other two along with him.

Eras change across the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, but the Immortal Realm remains different.

The Immortal Realm has existed since time immemorial, and will remain intact unless there is a Great Purge or Dark Turmoil.

People from other realms also like to venture into the Boundary Sea, but not many of the kings of the Immortal Realm share this preference.

Therefore, the kings of the Immortal Realm all lived for a relatively long time.

Pan Wang knew Zhenyuan Immortal King, this supreme ancient powerhouse, as well as the three people with the Crystal Skull. Pan Wang even had a karmic connection with the latter three.

He attained immortality through the elixir of life; I dare not say anything else, but his lifespan would certainly be extremely long, and he would know many people.

I thought they were all dead, but I didn't expect them to still be alive. The family reunion was indeed a success.

Under the guidance of Zhenyuan Immortal King, Yunhua and his group of Immortal Kings marched in a grand procession, traversing countless universes and crossing countless starry skies.

They truly crossed realms and traversed stars. Finally, the group arrived at a desolate expanse of starry sky.

Strangely enough, there is only one star in this part of the night sky.

The starry sky is vast, but only one star hangs alone in it.

That star exuded an ancient and wild aura, but it was a dead star, devoid of any living beings.

"This is it," said Zhenyuan Immortal King.

"Legend has it that this was once a life-bearing planet, but it is now desolate."

"Many people have come here, including some at the level of Immortal Kings, but very few have actually entered; they only exist in legends."

"Yes, this is an ancient land, and also a demonic land," Pan Wang sighed softly.

As someone old enough, he also had some knowledge of this place.

"It would require the mighty power of an unparalleled immortal king to open this place," said Zhenyuan Immortal King.

In the original story, he brought Shi Hao here by offering a drop of Immortal King's essence blood, which, combined with Shi Hao's own extraordinary abilities, allowed them to successfully open the ancient land.

However, that was only necessary when Zhenyuan Immortal King was powerless, requiring the sacrifice of the Immortal King's essence blood.

There are plenty of living Celestial Kings here now, so there's no reason why it has to be the essence of a Celestial King.

Whether it's the essence of a Celestial King or a living Celestial King, their commonality is nothing more than the power at the Celestial King level.

This is one of the conditions for opening this place.

"I'll do it." The Holy King stepped forward, unleashing his supreme power as an Immortal King.

All the kings of the Immortal Realm turned their heads in surprise; even in the Immortal Realm, a supreme Immortal King was the pinnacle.

Whether in the Immortal Realm or the Otherworld, powerful figures rarely emerge.

The Celestial King's power resonated with the mysterious forces of this place, and everyone was carefully observing the area, hoping to discover something special.

Yun Hua's soul merged with the void, and his body suddenly glowed, creating an astonishing phenomenon that resonated with the ancient star below.

“There is hope.” Zhenyuan Immortal King’s expression brightened, though he didn’t understand why such a change had occurred.

At this point, any change is a good thing; the worst thing is no reaction at all!

The kings all looked at Yunhua, wanting to find out the reason for the change.

Why did Yunhua and Tongtian Ancient Land react here? They were naturally curious.

Yunhua was also carefully experiencing the feeling at this moment. In the original storyline, Shi Hao's Transformation of Freedom technique was activated, and the Heavenly Land was successfully opened.

Yunhua had also read about the Paranirmitavasavartin Dharma, but at this moment Yunhua was absolutely certain that the current commotion had nothing to do with the Paranirmitavasavartin Dharma.

"So that's how it is..." Yunhua murmured, he understood the reason.

Or to put it simply, there are the necessary hidden conditions for entering the Heavenly Land.

This is related to time and space. To open this place, one must be someone who belongs to the present world, but also has a mark in the past before one's birth or in an uncertain future.

Simply put, it means living before birth and living after "death".

Only through the intersection of time and space can the requirements be met, and this place be resonated with in the darkness, thus opening the gateway to heaven.

Shi Hao meets this condition, and Yun Hua also meets this condition.

Throughout history, most of those who have had the opportunity to enter this place have met this condition.

The reason I say "most" is because Yunhua guesses that there should be more than one hidden condition necessary to enter the Heavenly Land.

It should be fine no matter which implicit condition is met.

As for the well-known explicit condition, it is naturally the power of a Celestial King, whether he is a living Celestial King or a dead one, it doesn't matter.

This is also a mandatory requirement.

Suddenly, a crack appeared in the void, widening rapidly to the point that it was passable.

Clearly, they succeeded; the entrance to the Heavenly Land has been opened.

"Fellow Daoist's methods are unfathomable," a Celestial King from the Celestial Realm exclaimed in admiration.

They couldn't figure out how Yunhua had opened the Heavenly Passage, but it was precisely because they couldn't figure it out that it seemed even more unfathomable...

Stepping into the crevice, one finds a heavenly path leading to an ancient cave that spews forth chaotic energy.

That ancient cave is the destination of this trip, a place that leads to heaven!

The kings surveyed the place; it was vast and silent, devoid of any living beings.

This place was meant to be this way; it was unlikely that anyone would ever come here in all the ages. It was Yunhua and his group who broke the ancient tranquility.

In the original storyline, when Shi Hao came here, he would encounter a group of Thunder Spirits carrying the corpse of the Thunder Emperor, intending to bury the Thunder Emperor here in the hope that the Thunder Emperor would return.

However, it's still a long time before those lightning spirits arrive here, so it would be strange if they were here.

Yunhua wasn't disappointed that she wouldn't get to see the group of Thunder Spirits.

Yunhua will sense anything that Shi Hao sees, hears, or encounters that she needs.

Oh, by the way, a dog will also appear here in the future, bringing with it a drop of the Immortal King Wuzhong's essence blood and a fragment of the Immortal Bell, wanting to resurrect Wuzhong.

That's right, that dog was the predecessor of Black King.

It's hard to say whether the Black Emperor's predecessor's plan was a failure or a success, since Wushi did indeed appear in later generations.

As for whether Wushi's appearance and this place are related to the actions of the Black Emperor's predecessor, that remains unknown.

Yunhua guessed that there probably was.

But now there are no Thunder Spirits or dogs here, only them.

As you travel along the celestial path, with each step you take, the starry sky changes, and different universes are left behind.

With each step forward, the heavenly path behind Yunhua and his companions would disappear, as if they were forever standing at the starting point.

Chapter 1364 Reversing the Flow of Time

However, even the weakest among those present was a True Immortal, so they could naturally tell that they were constantly moving forward, not standing still.

Finally, they stepped into the ancient cave, and the sky path behind them had completely disappeared.

The journey home is over; it seems that one is only allowed to enter, but not to leave.

Just like the six realms of reincarnation. Once you enter reincarnation, how can you turn back?

The ancient cave was deep and secluded. Yunhua and the others continued onward. Large swaths of chaotic mist floated around, and the primordial energy of all things rose and fell, creating a rich atmosphere of immortal energy.

It is even more concentrated than in most places in the Immortal Realm.

At the deepest point, there is a stone chamber. Inside the chamber, there is a stone wall with an ancient and natural path.

Yunhua's target was this stone wall.

"Anything can happen in the Tongtian Land, but the most sinister and mysterious thing is this stone wall," said Zhenyuan Immortal King.

This stone wall is said to connect heaven and earth, to the workings of creation, and to the past and present.

"This stone wall is eerie; it can swallow people up, leaving them forever lost, never to return."

"It's almost the same as being dead."

Everyone stood outside the stone chamber and did not go in. Even the Celestial King was wary of this stone chamber and dared not overstep his bounds.

Because this place is too eerie; even a Celestial King has gotten lost here before.

Their innate spiritual awareness was also warning them, telling them not to enter this place lightly.

“This stone wall is my target,” Yunhua said. “Don’t worry, I’m confident.”

He is the one who opened the Heavenly Pass this time. He meets the requirements and conditions, so there is no problem for him to enter.

As for whether one will remain lost forever, that depends on one's own abilities.

"You can wait for me here, or you can go out first." After saying that, Yunhua strode into the stone chamber.

A violent flash of light appeared, and when everything subsided, Yunhua's figure had vanished.

They vanished into thin air, leaving no trace.

Yunhua disappeared, but the stone wall changed, and a hazy figure appeared on the stone wall.

Although the people could not see it clearly, they knew in their hearts that it was Yunhua.

"I am unharmed." A voice came from the stone wall, and Yunhua was still able to transmit her voice into the mortal world.

"Where are you now?" the Lord of the Forbidden Zone asked.

"A place beyond description," Yunhua's voice rang out.

The light and shadow on the stone wall shifted and changed, revealing a scene from the era of the fallen emperor.

None of them had lived from the era of the fallen emperor to the present day, but when they saw the things manifested on the stone wall, they understood what era it was.

In the darkness, divine secrets are revealed.

Yunhua was standing in a bizarre and surreal space, where the things around her were twisted and strange, beyond description.

Those scenes cannot even be referred to as objects.

This is abstract, conceptual, primordial, and cannot be described by common sense.

Up could be down, down could be up, life could be death, death could be life, water could be fire, fire could be water...

Anything can be what, and anything can not be what.

If I had to put it into words, this place has a flavor of a place close to the Dao in this world.

But this place is definitely more complicated than the shortcut.
