YM778.TV Chapter 200: 179 Terrifying Forbidden Area_1
Because she understood very well that the pen tainted with the aura of the Immortal King was terrifying.
Moreover, she even faintly guessed that Senluo Immortal Monarch’s so-called master…
was lurking in the shadows!
She had achieved Immortal Certification, and the recent outbreak of an Immortal-level battle had caused a commotion; there was no reason it wouldn’t disturb the Immortal Domain.
Yet until now, there was still no sign of any reaction from the Immortal Domain.
There was only one possibility.
There was an extremely terrifying presence that concealed everything happening in this part of the Void Sea Domain, preventing even the Immortal Domain from detecting it.
This kind of existence…
could only be the Immortal King!
Although Xinning was confident, she was not foolish. She did not believe she was powerful enough to contend with the Immortal King.
To the Immortal King, Immortals were nothing more than ants!
Therefore, at this moment, she decisively turned and fled!
She ran away quickly!
In an instant, her figure had disappeared into the Heavenly Realm.
She directly stepped into the Southern Territory!
Cangli Mountain Range!
She landed in front of a small mountain village.
“Ah, isn’t this Miss Xinning? Why are you panting? What happened?”
At the entrance of the village, Elder Zhao was basking in the sun and spoke up in surprise when he saw Xinning running up in a hurry.
“Second Elder… there are bad people chasing me!”
Xinning said.
Upon hearing this, Elder Zhao immediately rose from his Taishi Chair, his eyes widened, and said,
“Who dares to cause trouble in our village? Girl, you go find Little Li, I’ll hold off the bad guys!”
“Thank you, Second Elder!”
Xinning quickly ran towards a small courtyard!
And not long after she left, a man holding a black Senluo Pen appeared outside the village!
Senluo Immortal Monarch, he had followed her!
However, just as he landed, Senluo Immortal Monarch’s expression turned solemn!
He looked at the small mountain village ahead.
His entire being was greatly shocked!
“What… what kind of place is this?!”
He was astonished!
The small mountain village before him was clearly enshrouded with boundless paths of the Great Dao, terrorizing forbidden powers intertwining in complex ways!
Dangerous, unfathomable!
This was his only feeling.
This kind of feeling… only appeared when facing some primal forbidden areas in the Immortal Domain!
“Impossible, how could there be a forbidden area here? In the Lower World, only the Three Great Heavenly Realms have forbidden areas, and most are just transformed by Immortals who failed to impact the Great Primordial Path…”
He muttered to himself!
But the myriad threads of the forbidden area’s aura distinctly gave him a feeling of heart-pounding terror!
Just then, at the entrance of the village, an old man with white hair appeared. He stared at Senluo Immortal Monarch and said,
“What are you doing here?!”
Hearing this interrogation, Senluo Immortal Monarch’s pupils constricted even further!
What situation was this? There were living beings here… alive?!
Beings of a forbidden area?!
At this moment, he instantly upgraded the danger level of this place in his heart by a notch!
Forbidden zones are many, and they spring from various origins—some are created by Immortals who failed to breach the realm of the Immortal Kings and thus became tainted with ill omens, while others are the result of Immortal King-level entities undergoing bizarre transformations. There is even the legendary “Yang Ban” that is said to be so perilous that even Immortal Kings must circumvent it!
But no matter what kind of forbidden zone it might be, any creature that emerges alive… signifies that the master of the forbidden zone is most likely still alive!
Such forbidden zones are places even Immortal Monarchs wouldn’t dare to barge into recklessly; they would only skirt around them, for inside there must certainly lurk an immense misfortune!
“May I ask who you are, and why have you taken her in!”
Senluo Immortal Monarch asked in a deep voice!
He felt that the matter had become complicated—instantly so!
Yet, the white-haired being opposite him suddenly slammed his Dragon Head Cane onto the ground and exclaimed angrily:
“What do you want? We took her in—are you saying you have a problem with that?!”
Senluo Immortal Monarch’s heart skipped a beat; indeed, this being was worthy of being a creature from a forbidden zone.
So arrogant! Even before him, an Immortal Monarch, there was complete disregard!
Such was the flavor of a forbidden zone!
Moreover, when the other had just lightly struck the ground with his cane, he distinctly felt a terrifying aura emanate!
If it were any other time, he might have endured it and simply walked away.
After all, beings from forbidden zones should not be provoked, especially those so bold as to defy Immortals!
But this time was different—the matter was of great importance, and it concerned his own possibility of surpassing immortality to become an Immortal King!
He could not retreat!
Furthermore, his master, the great Immortal King himself, was still concealing his fate within the Void Sea Domain for him.
If anything were to happen, his master would be there to assist!
He immediately stepped forward and said solemnly:
“I just want to take her away. Please hand her over, and Senluo will be in your debt!”
“Otherwise, Senluo will have no choice but to be impolite!”
…
Meanwhile, inside the small courtyard.
“The weather has been getting worse day by day lately.”
Li Fan looked up at the sky, somewhat puzzled as he spoke.
Just now, the sky had appeared as if it was about to thunder and rain, rumbling continuously.
But then, it didn’t rain at all.
Hearing Li Fan’s words, Nan Feng and a group of disciples had complex expressions.
The master… was indeed fearsome.
It was the battle of the Immortals.
In the master’s eyes, however, it was merely bad weather!
“Sister Xinning has ascended to immortality… it’s simply unbelievable.”
Nan Feng touched the strings of his instrument, still somewhat in disbelief as he sighed.
“Every time the master sends us out, we encounter great fortunes…”
Long Zixuan felt emotional—Dugu Yuqing and Lu Rang had gone out and both received something from the Immortal King, and later when Zi Ling went out, her Art of Painting improved greatly. Now Xinning had gone out just once and directly ascended to immortality…
He was beginning to look forward to it—who knew when the master would send him out on such a trip…
As for that grand battle.
They had all witnessed it, and they were shocked at first since the commotion was truly massive.
But when they realized that Li Fan was merely lamenting the poor weather, they understood.
Sister Xinning’s ascent to immortality, the battle among the Immortals—everything was within the master’s calculations!
“Perhaps, this is a trial the master arranged for Sister Xinning.”
Nan Feng speculated.
“An Immortal appearing—how could they escape the master’s notice? We don’t need to worry.”
Long Zixuan thought thus.
So, they were all calm.
“Big Brother,”
At this moment, Xinning’s voice came through, and the door to the courtyard was pushed open.
Xinning arrived, panting heavily.
Li Fan was somewhat puzzled—why had Xinning returned alone?
At that moment, Xinning took the initiative to speak up, saying,
“Big Brother, we used the talisman you drew to capture those two ghosts; the ghosts have been extinguished…”
“But the guy who let that ghost out has chased us to the entrance of the village, and he probably has an invisible entity following him…”
She briefly explained the situation.
She believed that this senior would surely know everything and that she didn’t need to say much.
Upon hearing this, Li Fan was momentarily stunned.
Were there really ghosts?
And his ghost-drawing talisman actually worked?
It’s no wonder—it is a world of cultivators, where even ghosts exist. This is simply too wild.
But listening to Xinning, those two ghosts were released by someone?
And they dared to chase right up to the village entrance?
That was just too arrogant!
“Yuqing, Jiang Li, you two go and take a look. Don’t let him disturb the peace of our village!”
Li Fan gave the order directly.
Dugu Yuqing often went out to fight in groups and had rich experience. It was right to send him, and Jiang Li, who had just arrived, could learn from Dugu Yuqing how to fight!
Without a second thought, Dugu Yuqing responded,
“Okay!”
Immortal? He truly had quite the experience when it came to facing Immortal-level adversaries!
After all, he had even met the Immortal King…
He immediately took the Broken Sword with him.
“Disciple obeys!”
Jiang Li also spoke up, preparing to leave with him.
“Junior Brother Jiang Li, we’re going to fight, you need to bring a weapon!”
Dugu Yuqing pointed out.
A weapon? Jiang Li pondered for a moment; he didn’t have any handy weapons.
“Here, take this!”
Dugu Yuqing shoved the chessboard that was on the stone table into Jiang Li’s hands and said,
“Aren’t you fond of chess? You’ll definitely handle this smoothly, and it’s so sturdy that not even an axe can chop it—it’ll be a fine weapon for a fight!”
He could tell that this chessboard was also a real treasure.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Li was shocked.
To fight… with this chessboard?
Oh my, this was a chessboard of a legendary Immortal King…
Even if there were Immortals outside, Jiang Li still felt that using this object to fight was a bit…
A bit too much!
A bit too much like bullying!
His expression complex, but he still said, “Thank you for your guidance, Senior Brother.”
He promptly took the chessboard and left.
Seeing this, Li Fan was also speechless.
His disciples really weren’t made for fighting—every time they fought, some would grab a Blazing Staff, some used chopsticks, pens, brooms…
And now even a chessboard was involved.
Forget it, this was probably for the best. Let them intimidate the people outside the village, to avoid any bloody incidents that would be hard to settle.
Seeing this, Xinning was delighted and said with a laugh,
“Thank you, Big Brother!”
She quickly left with Dugu Yuqing and Jiang Li.
It didn’t take long for them to briskly make their way to the village entrance.
And at the village entrance…
Elder Zhao saw Senluo Immortal Monarch approaching step by step.
He immediately became furious, raised his Dragon Head Cane, and pointed it at Senluo Immortal Monarch, exclaiming,
“Try coming any closer!”
As he raised his cane to point, Senluo Immortal Monarch, who was advancing, suddenly felt an ominous killing intent!
His face turned pale, and he quickly retreated!
The next moment, he clearly saw that the very spot he had been standing at moments before was obliterated, the spatial laws vaporized!
Hss!
The adversary could actually injure an Immortal?!
He was shocked—this being was simply an outpost guardian of the restricted area?!
What terrifying creatures must reside further inside, let alone the master of the restricted area…
What a terrifying restricted area!!
Once again, he hesitated in his heart!
But after a brief moment, he gritted his teeth and stepped forward, saying,
“I must take her with me!”
For his own King’s Path Dao Fruit, for achieving the Great Primordial Path… he could not back down!
Elder Zhao was so angry he could barely contain himself, continuously pointing the cane at him while cursing,
“You reckless fool, you’ve got some nerve! Do you really think our village is easy to bully?”
“Don’t believe me? Come in standing up and you’ll be carried out lying down!”
He was making threats!
Meanwhile, Senluo Immortal Monarch was dodging again and again. He narrowly escaped the terrifying onslaught of attacks, and it was only by using the Senluo Life-Death Pen that he managed to suppress the assault!
Was he unable to break through even a mere gatekeeper of this restricted area?
Is this the confidence of the restricted area?!
His heart sank further, and a desire to retreat began to surface!
After all, attacking a restricted area? He wouldn’t dare even if he had ten times the courage!
“Continue to probe this area; there is something peculiar here,”
But at that moment, a grand and ancient voice rang out in his mind!
His expression lifted instantly.
Was his master, who was concealing the heavenly secrets, finally paying attention to this place?!
He was overjoyed!
His own master was an Immortal King, a being who could converse with many masters of the restricted areas!
Now that his master had spoken, what was there to fear?
He pressed forward relentlessly!
As he continued to advance, he also noticed that this white-haired guardian of the restricted area seemed to have very few means of attack!
He relied heavily on that cane in his hand!
With this realization, Senluo Immortal Monarch felt even more elated.
“I won’t stop until she is handed over today!”
Moments ago, he was anxious, but now, he was the one making bold declarations!
At the village entrance, Elder Zhao’s beard was bristling with rage. Bad people these days were just too arrogant!
So arrogant they were reaching for the sky!
No, this called for reinforcements; he needed to call the villagers out to beat this intruder!
Elder Zhao was ready to take serious action.
But, just then, a voice from behind rang out,
“Second Elder, we’re here!”
Elder Zhao turned around and saw Xinning had arrived with Dugu Yuqing and Jiang Li!
