Terran Guardian - Chapter 4045

Chapter 4020: The Immortal City of Immortality Appears!

“Not bad!”

After refining the second Dao Soul Nourishing Fruit, Jiu Ye’s divine soul aura became even more terrifying, but in Shen Changqing’s eyes, the difference was negligible.

After all, an existence of this level was beyond his comprehension.

Seeing that the other party had finished refining, Shen Changqing asked, “Senior, how well has your strength recovered?”

“I can destroy a Great Sage, and even fight a Supreme!”

Jiu Ye replied casually.

This sentence

greatly reassured Shen Changqing.

Two Dao Soul Nourishing Fruits were enough to restore this person’s strength to this extent.

If there were a few more Dao Soul Nourishing Fruits, then the other party’s strength would definitely recover even more.

Of course,

to say that he could completely recover to his peak state,

relying solely on Dao Soul Nourishing Fruits was probably impossible.

At least—

the Dao Soul Nourishing Fruits of the Crimson Jade Dao Palace could hardly achieve that.

After all, the Dao Soul Nourishing Fruits here were formed from the fall of a Dao Venerable.

For a powerhouse of Jiu Ye’s level, there was naturally an upper limit.

Regardless, the fact that Jiu Ye’s strength had further recovered made Shen Changqing’s trip worthwhile.

Afterwards,

Jiu Ye went into seclusion again.

Shen Changqing carefully sheathed the Soul-Destroying Sword.

In the following days, he no longer confined himself to the Great Dao Heaven, but traveled throughout the starry sky, seizing opportunities that had emerged.

Rare natural treasures fell into his grasp, and Shen Changqing was naturally satisfied.

Until one day,

a mysterious aura suddenly emanated from the depths of the starry sky. Any cultivator who sensed this aura felt a strange sense of awe.

Immediately afterward,

the light of the Great Dao swept across the sky, the Three Thousand Great Daos pressing down on the endless starry sky, and the phantom of a supreme immortal city stood atop the starry sky, above all living beings. All the cultivators immediately

looked up at that ancient immortal city that seemed to suppress the river of time. Then, a majestic figure standing at the end of the Great Dao crossed the river of time, his majestic and awe-inspiring voice reaching the ears of every cultivator. “On the road to immortality lie only corpses!” “The ancient immortal city buries heroes!” “Today, the Immortal City of Immortality opens! All geniuses who possess the Immortality Token may enter and vie for the opportunity to achieve immortality!” … The moment these words fell, the entire starry sky erupted in commotion. All cultivators gazed at that ancient immortal city, their eyes burning with fervor. The opportunity to achieve immortality! These simple four words were enough to drive most cultivators mad. After all— it was the opportunity to achieve immortality! No matter how exceptional your talent, if you do not achieve immortality, you will ultimately turn into a handful of dust. However, immortality is difficult to attain! Since ancient times, how many cultivators have truly been able to take this step? Even powerful figures like the Nine Mountain Immortal Emperors have failed to achieve immortality, needing to rely on immortal elixirs to live another life in order to seize immortality. Now, the opportunity to achieve immortality is right before their eyes; how could these cultivators restrain themselves? In that instant , almost all cultivators headed towards the Immortal City of Immortality. In the starry sky… Shen Changqing stared at the supreme immortal city, his face filled with shock. “This is the Immortal City of Longevity!” The overwhelming divine might of that city made him feel an indescribable, terrifying pressure. ” On the path to immortality lie only corpses! The eternal immortal city buries heroes! ” These few words contained astonishing killing intent. Just then, Jiu Ye’s voice rang out. “The Immortal City of Longevity…this immortal city is quite extraordinary!” Hearing this, Shen Changqing’s expression froze. Extraordinary? For this person to utter the words “extraordinary,” it truly was extraordinary. Jiu Ye said, “If I am not mistaken, this immortal city was forged from the remains of a Sovereign. The Crimson Jade Dao Palace you are currently in is utterly insignificant before this immortal city.” Sovereign’s remains! Shen Changqing’s expression changed again. “Senior is right! The Immortal City of Longevity before us is forged from the remains of a Sovereign!” A Chaos Sovereign! That was a supreme existence surpassing even the Dao Venerable realm. An ancient immortal city forged from the remains of a sovereign—how could it not be astonishing? Even the Crimson Jade Dao Venerable , at his peak, hadn’t reached the realm of a sovereign. Yet, within the Crimson Jade Dao Palace lay a sovereign immortal city—a truly unexpected development. Then, suppressing his shock, Shen Changqing took a step into the air, a hurricane swirling around him, transforming into a phantom of a roc, heading straight for the Immortal City of Longevity. Once the Ninety Thousand Mile Divine Power was unleashed , it reached its extreme speed— many cultivators only felt a gust of wind rush past them, barely able to catch a glimpse of Shen Changqing’s back. “So fast!” “This is the Kunpeng Divine Power—” Some seasoned Immortal Emperors with discerning eyes narrowed their pupils sharply, their faces showing shock. Among all the ferocious beasts in the world , those whose speed surpassed that of the Kunpeng were few and far between. It could be said that among all the chaotic ferocious beasts, the Kunpeng’s speed was among the most exceptional. However… These chaotic beasts’ supernatural powers are difficult to comprehend, and most cultivators, even if they are fortunate enough to see them, do not have the qualifications to study and cultivate them.

Seeing a cultivator wielding the Kunpeng Divine Power naturally startled them.

However—

some sharp-eyed cultivators caught a glimpse of a familiar purple-clad figure.

“That’s the Xuan Tian Sword Master, Shen Changqing!”

But before the words could even finish, a vast golden light surged forth, and golden lotuses bloomed in the void. A white-robed monk ascended barefoot, his target clearly the Immortal City of Longevity.

“The Glazed Buddha’s Disciple, Bao Chan!”

Upon seeing him, the other cultivators’ expressions changed again.

The third on the Immortal Emperor’s Stele!

The Glazed Holy Land’s Buddha’s Disciple, Bao Chan!

The next instant.

An unparalleled sword intent shook the heavens, its power, like a divine sun, piercing the void. A figure in green robes inspired awe.

Immediately afterward.

The Great Dao River traversed the universe, and a white-robed Daoist ascended its banks.

Shen Jianxin!

Luo Xinghe!

…

One by one, the powerful figures whose names were recorded on the Immortal Emperor’s Stele made no attempt to conceal their intentions, heading straight for the Immortal City of Longevity.

There were many more cultivators whose names he couldn’t recall.

The Immortal City of Longevity seemed so close, yet in reality, it was separated from the other cultivators by billions of miles of void. Even with

Shen Changqing fully activating his divine abilities, it took him a full half-hour to finally arrive before the Immortal City of Longevity.

“The Immortal City of Longevity!”

He gazed at the majestic and ancient city before him, its imposing, abyss-like power suppressing the heavens, its majestic might covering everything.

Shen Changqing looked up and saw the city walls disappearing into the depths of the starry sky; he couldn’t see the end at a glance.

Standing before such an immortal city, he felt as insignificant as dust.

Seeing the Immortal City of Longevity in the starry sky was completely different from actually standing at its foot.

Suppressing his shock, Shen Changqing looked towards the city gate and then stepped into the void to proceed.

However—

just as he was about to step into the Immortal City’s territory, he saw a gray-clad figure appear. The figure had an ordinary face and indifferent eyes, devoid of any emotion a living person should possess.

Yet, the mere presence of this figure made Shen Changqing feel a fatal crisis.

He couldn’t possibly defeat him!

This was the only thought that crossed his mind.

Even

within the Crimson Jade Palace, where his strength was suppressed, with the Nine-Star Mace in hand, facing a top-tier Half-Saint wouldn’t have given him this feeling.

The gray-clad figure before him must have broken through the limits of Half-Saint, stepping into a higher level.

“A Great Saint Realm puppet, interesting!”

Nine Leaves’ voice rang out, resolving Shen Changqing’s doubts.

But upon hearing this, he was even more shocked.

A Great Saint Realm puppet!

Such an existence still existed in the Immortal City of Longevity!

At this moment ,

Shen Changqing was increasingly astonished by the methods of that Crimson Jade Dao Venerable.

After all, being able to refine a Great Saint Realm puppet was naturally terrifying.

Just then…

The gray-robed man spoke slowly, his voice indifferent: “Those who possess the Longevity Token may enter the Longevity Immortal City. Those who trespass will die!”

This simple sentence contained boundless killing intent.

Shen Changqing naturally had no doubt that a Great Saint Realm expert possessed the qualifications to suppress everything.

At least within the Crimson Jade Dao Palace, the man was invincible.

In that instant,

Shen Changqing took out the Longevity Token he had obtained.

The gray-robed man reached out and took the token, a subtle fluctuation appearing in his indifferent eyes.

Then

, with a flick of his sleeve, the token returned to Shen Changqing’s hand before he stepped aside.

“Rumble!!”

A heavy, buzzing sound echoed as the ancient immortal city’s gates slowly opened. Shen Changqing looked through the gates, seeing only a thick fog. He couldn’t see

anything!

He couldn’t see clearly either!

But Shen Changqing didn’t hesitate for long. He took a deep breath and stepped towards the Longevity Immortal City.

Not long after he entered the Immortal City of Longevity, other cultivators arrived.

The gray-robed man looked at the arriving cultivators and repeated his earlier words.

“When did the Immortal City of Longevity have such an existence!”

Bao Chan frowned. He suddenly realized that he knew absolutely nothing about the Immortal City of Longevity. The Glazed Sacred Land had information about the Immortal City of Longevity, but there was no mention of the gray-robed man before him.

However,

despite this

, Bao Chan didn’t say much. Instead, he directly took out the Longevity Token and handed it to the gray-robed man.

He couldn’t discern the strength of the person before him, but there was no doubt that such an existence was definitely not someone he could provoke.

Facing an unknown being, Bao Chan naturally wouldn’t rashly offend him.

The gray-robed man glanced at the Longevity Token and then returned it.

Seeing this, Bao Chan chanted a Buddhist prayer.

“Amitabha, thank you, senior!”

The gray-robed man remained indifferent, as if he hadn’t heard Bao Chan’s words.

Seeing this, Bao Chan said nothing more, simply clasped her hands together, bowed, and then walked towards the Immortal City of Longevity.

The moment she stepped into the Immortal City of Longevity, Bao Chan felt a tremor in her sea of consciousness; the power that had been concealing her seemed to vanish silently.

Looking at the scene before her, Bao Chan was slightly taken aback, then a meaningful smile appeared on her face.

“Amitabha, what a magnificent Immortal City of Longevity! Such methods are truly inconceivable!”
