Saint Emperor Devourer of Heaven
#2325 - The Curse of the Fallen Immortal
“My two esteemed brothers, what exactly is inside that Ancient Mine? Or rather, what have your people encountered inside?”
Jun Wuxie wanted to learn more about the mine from them.
Since the Ancient Mine was mined by various forces in rotation, both the Ziwei Sacred Land and the Ziyun Immortal Palace had been inside the mine more than once.
Hearing this, Ji Yuan and Yun Qingyang looked at each other. At that moment, they both knew that Dao Wu Fa was really targeting the Ancient Mine, otherwise, why would he ask so many details?
“We know very little about the dangers inside, only the tip of the iceberg.
Judging from the situations encountered by various forces, there is at least a mysterious power similar to a curse inside, which is very terrifying.
This curse power alone is enough to make all forces fearful.”
They said that it was possible to be infected by the curse even in the shallow layers of the Ancient Mine.
According to the research of the strong from various forces, this curse should be the Fallen Immortal Curse.
That is a legendary and terrifying power, existing in a special environment.
Ancient books once recorded that in the universe, mountains, rivers, and earth, in extremely special places, there exists this terrifying curse power, dormant deep within the earth and rocks.
The Fallen Immortal Curse power of the Ancient Mine exists within the strata.
Sometimes, when mining Immortal Origin Stones, one can be unknowingly infected.
If one encounters a relatively concentrated Fallen Immortal Curse power, once infected, it is almost impossible to strip it from the body. Even a Grand Luo Golden Immortal would be devoured by the Fallen Immortal Curse, resulting in a terrifying mutation.
They told Jun Wuxie that several Grand Luo Golden Immortals from several forces had died because of the Fallen Immortal Curse.
But they did not die from the Fallen Immortal Curse itself, but at the hands of the strong from their own sects, and were suppressed and killed by several Grand Luo Golden Immortals.
Those Grand Luo Golden Immortals who were infected with the Fallen Immortal Curse all grew fangs, had long gray hair, their skin was covered with gray咒纹, the whites of their eyes disappeared, replaced by gray eyeballs and pupils, they lost all sanity, were violent and murderous, and loved blood.
“Little friend, you haven’t seen that kind of scene, it’s chilling just to think about it.
That scene was simply…
At that time, all the people from those several forces who entered the Ancient Mine died, killed by their own mutated Grand Luo Golden Immortals, their blood sucked dry, their internal organs hollowed out, it was a terrible sight…
As for what is deeper in the mine, no one from any force knows.
We have all sent people to explore deeper, but all those who went in disappeared without a trace and never came out again.
Even a Grand Luo Immortal Lord realm expert from a certain force wanted to go deep to find out, and followed in their footsteps, never to return!
Therefore, little friend, it’s best not to consider the Ancient Mine.
Now, every force has their lower-cultivation, lower-talent disciples enter to mine Immortal Origin Stones, and they only stay in the shallow layers.
Although accidents often happen, after all, it’s not the geniuses or the strong who are lost. Compared to the benefits brought by the mined Immortal Origin Stones, everyone feels it’s worth it.
It’s just, pity those disciples.”
“There’s no way around it…”
Ji Yuan and Yun Qingyang sighed, “Although we are major forces, little friend should know that the major forces in the world, even those that appear harmonious and non-aggressive on the surface, are actually fiercely competitive in secret.
Everyone is doing this, if we don’t do this, we will inevitably fall behind in the acquisition of Tianyuan Immortal Jade.
At that time, all the forces will be developing rapidly in this special era, while we will still be standing still.
Then, what awaits us will be self-evident.
There will be a disaster of annihilation.”
“I understand this naturally.
In the end, it’s still the result of mutual competition, treating each other as opponents.
Otherwise, the Grand Luo Immortal Lord realm experts from each force could completely enter the mine themselves, only mining shallow Immortal Origin Stones, and there would likely be no problems.
Even if they were infected with the Fallen Immortal Curse power, with the strength of a Grand Luo Immortal Lord, the shallow curse should be able to be suppressed.”
“That’s the reasoning, but every major force is unwilling to take the risk, fearing that if a Grand Luo Immortal Lord dies inside, it would be an unimaginable loss.
Moreover, once a Grand Luo Immortal Lord is devoured by the Fallen Immortal Curse and loses his mind, before other Grand Luo Immortal Lords arrive to join forces to kill him, it will inevitably bring an uncontrollable disaster.
The disciples of each force are very clear about what mining the Ancient Mine means, and its significance to the sect and family.
Therefore, it’s basically not coercive, they all go voluntarily.
Some people are driven by a sense of honor and responsibility, while others want to gamble for better resources.
Those disciples have lower talents, and their status in the sect or family is relatively low, so the resources they can be allocated are also relatively poor.
Going to the Ancient Mine to mine Immortal Origin Stones will get better resource rewards.
Among so many disciples, some are afraid of death and unwilling to go, while others are unwilling to accept their fate and want to seize the opportunity to gamble for a more exciting life.
Those with bad luck lose their lives because of this; those with good luck get resources that they couldn’t get before and break through their realms.”
“My two esteemed brothers, when will it be your sect’s turn to mine the Ancient Mine?”
“Our Ziyun Immortal Palace will have to wait several months before it’s our turn.
However, Daoist Ji Yuan’s Ziwei Sacred Land should be next month, right?
It’s almost the end of the month, in a few days, the people from Ziwei Sacred Land will go to the Ancient Mine.”
“Yun Qingyang, why are you so talkative!”
Ji Yuan glared fiercely at Yun Qingyang and said, “You know little friend’s intentions, yet you still tell him this!
Aren’t you making things difficult for my Ziwei Sacred Land?”
Speaking of this, Ji Yuan looked at Jun Wuxie with a solemn expression and said, “Little friend, if you want to enter the Ancient Mine, please forgive this old brother for not being able to agree!
This matter is no small matter, once infected with the Fallen Immortal Curse, what will happen?
At that time, wouldn’t this old brother be burdened with the crime of killing his benefactor?
With your means, if you want to obtain Tianyuan Immortal Jade, you don’t need to take risks at all. You can disguise yourself and go to the various stone shops to select stones, which is much safer than personally going down to the Ancient Mine!”
“No, I need a massive amount of Tianyuan Immortal Jade, so I must go down to the Ancient Mine.
Brother Ji Yuan, if you really want to do me good, let me go down to the Ancient Mine with your people next time.
If brother refuses, I will have to cooperate with other forces.
I believe they will not refuse.”
“Little friend, why won’t you listen to advice?”
Ji Yuan looked at him in astonishment. In order to go down to the mine, he could actually come up with the idea of cooperating with other forces.
Isn’t that like seeking skin from a tiger?
To put it bluntly, it’s completely sending yourself to their doorstep.
Even if you are not infected with the Fallen Immortal Curse in the mine, and you also get a lot of Immortal Origin Stones containing high-quality Tianyuan Immortal Jade.
How could the people from various forces possibly watch him take the Immortal Origin Stones away?
Those people will definitely be guarding at the entrance of the Ancient Mine, laying down a net.
As soon as he comes out, they will capture and suppress him, and snatch away all the Immortal Origin Stones.
Then, the various forces will definitely try every means to control him, and make him frequently go down to the mine to mine Immortal Origin Stones for them, completely treating him as a mining tool!
“How dare I take on this job without the right skills.
Brother Ji Yuan, you have to believe in me.
The Fallen Immortal Curse is certainly terrifying, but I shouldn’t be so easily infected.
You also said that the Fallen Immortal Curse power is dormant in certain mining layers, as long as you don’t touch it, you won’t be infected.
I may have a way to avoid the Fallen Immortal Curse power.”
“This…”
“Ji Yuan, let little friend try.
Little friend is taking a risk, there must be a reason why he has to do this.
Otherwise, why would he go to such lengths?”
“Alas.”
After a moment of silence, Ji Yuan let out a long sigh, “Alright then, I will personally arrange it at that time.
Little friend, you need to disguise yourself, you must not let people recognize you, and quietly enter the mine.
Otherwise, once the news leaks and the various forces know that you have entered the Ancient Mine, the consequences will be unimaginable.
Now everyone knows your Immortal Jade appraisal skills.
They will definitely think that if you bring Immortal Origin Stones out of the mine, those Immortal Origin Stones can all produce high-quality Tianyuan Immortal Jade.
No one can resist such temptation.”
“Of course, then it’s settled.”
Jun Wuxie nodded and looked at the battlefield in the sky above the lake. More than half of the ten-odd Supreme Elders of the various forces had already been lost.
The remaining ones had no fighting spirit and were fleeing, but two of them were intercepted by Chu Moli and Chu Yudie.
Those two people knew that they would hardly survive today, and roared like wild beasts, looking like they were going crazy.
Among them was the Supreme Elder of the Xuanmen Immortal Sect.
He was able to survive until now because Chu Moli and Chu Yudie deliberately did so, and did not kill him before.
“I have to say, sister-in-law is really too strong.
The Yuan Immortal realm, yet her physical body is so much stronger than the Nine Heavens Sacred Immortal.
This old man prides himself on having a good physical strength, far superior to most people in the same realm, but it’s not as vigorous and long-lasting as sister-in-law.”
“Ah!! How dare you do this, our Grand Luo Golden Immortals will not let you go, wait for the crazy revenge!”
A strong man let out a hysterical voice before his death, uttering harsh words, full of resentment.
Immediately, his voice stopped abruptly, his Yuan Spirit was killed, and his entire head was shattered.
The Supreme Elder of the Xuanmen Immortal Sect was suppressed.
The rest had already fled without a trace.
The people who came with the Supreme Elders of the various forces had already escaped long ago.
Chu Yudie wrapped the Supreme Elder of the Xuanmen Immortal Sect with blood energy and returned to the island, throwing him in front of Jun Wuxie.
“Kneel down!”
Chu Yudie’s voice was cold, and the blood energy was oppressive, wanting to make the Supreme Elder of the Xuanmen Immortal Sect kneel.
This old thing had been targeting her husband at the Stone Selection Ceremony, and she had long wanted to deal with him.
“How unreasonable!”
The Supreme Elder of the Xuanmen Immortal Sect was full of humiliation, but he did not resist Chu Yudie’s blood energy pressure, and knelt down in front of Jun Wuxie in humiliation.
However, apart from Jun Wuxie, no one saw the fleeting, cold glint deep in the eyes of the Supreme Elder of the Xuanmen Immortal Sect.
The instant he knelt, he suddenly reached out to grab Jun Wuxie's neck.
A powerhouse of his realm was as fast as lightning, especially at such close range.
He was confident that Dao Wufa would not be able to dodge.
Even a Nine Heavens Saint Immortal would not be able to dodge, let alone Dao Wufa, a cultivator of a lower realm?
The moment he attacked, his face was filled with a grim smile.
He couldn't defeat Ji Yuan, he couldn't defeat Yun Qingyang, and he couldn't defeat the two women beside Dao Wufa.
But as long as he controlled Dao Wufa's life in his hands, he would have a bargaining chip to make them all wary!
Therefore, Dao Wufa, the weakest of them all, was his only chance to survive today and turn the situation around!
"You dare!"
Ji Yuan and Yun Qingyang were shocked, their expressions changed drastically.
The two of them attacked almost simultaneously, trying to stop the Supreme Elder of the Xuanmen Immortal Sect.
But they were farther away and reacted later, so they were too late.
Just as their hearts sank and they secretly cried out in alarm.
The Supreme Elder of the Xuanmen Immortal Sect's hand, which was reaching for Jun Wuxie's neck, was suddenly locked.
It was a hand flowing with a faint chaotic golden light, its five fingers locking his wrist like iron pliers.
The Supreme Elder of the Xuanmen Immortal Sect's hand remained in a grabbing position, only two inches away from Jun Wuxie's neck, but it could no longer move forward.
The grim smile on the Supreme Elder of the Xuanmen Immortal Sect's face froze, and a look of horror appeared in his pupils.
He only felt that the power coming from the five fingers that locked his wrist was terrifying to the extreme.
That kind of power made him use all his strength, but he couldn't shake the five fingers even a bit.
When his blood energy tried to shake those five fingers, the blood energy was directly rebounded and dissipated, his entire arm was numb, and the bones in his wrist seemed to be breaking!
Ji Yuan and Yun Qingyang were also stunned.
They looked at Jun Wuxie and the Supreme Elder of the Xuanmen Immortal Sect with disbelief.
Watching the Supreme Elder of the Xuanmen Immortal Sect trying to pull his hand away, but he couldn't break free, and he couldn't even shake those fingers!
How could Dao Wufa's little friend's physical divine power be so terrifying?
What realm is he in?
This is too subversive, simply unbelievable, unimaginable, like a fantasy!
To be able to do this, to make the Supreme Elder of the Xuanmen Immortal Sect unable to shake him, his physical divine power is probably similar to his two junior sisters, right?
"Impossible, how can you have such power!
Your realm is so low, impossible, I don't believe it!"
The Supreme Elder of the Xuanmen Immortal Sect roared in despair.
His last glimmer of hope was shattered.
He was originally confident, but suddenly stepped into the abyss!
"You people are hopelessly lost in your own world."
Jun Wuxie patted the Supreme Elder of the Xuanmen Immortal Sect's face.
"Boy, don't be too proud!
You will pay a heavy price for what you do today!
Once our Great Luo Golden Immortal powerhouse arrives, none of you will survive!"
"Noisy."
Jun Wuxie slapped him on the head.
The Supreme Elder of the Xuanmen Immortal Sect screamed, his eyes wide open, blood flowing from his seven orifices, his entire head turned into mush, his sea of consciousness collapsed, his primordial spirit shattered, and he died on the spot.
"Husband."
Chu Yudie took out the corpses of those Nine Heavens Saint Immortal realm powerhouses who had been killed from her storage ring.
Ji Yuan and Yun Qingyang looked at her in astonishment, wondering what she was doing with the corpses of the Supreme Elders of various forces.
Then, they looked at Jun Wuxie in astonishment again as he waved his sleeves and collected all the corpses.
"Little friend, what is this?"
They felt very strange in their hearts, how could anyone like to collect corpses, could this be Dao Wufa's little friend's special hobby?
Thinking of this, they suddenly shuddered, feeling that something was not right.
Jun Wuxie knew that they had misunderstood from their micro-expressions, but he did not explain, only saying: "Two old brothers, there is one more thing, I still need your help.
I heard that there is a palace that moves on its own recently. If there is any news about that palace, please let the two old brothers know."
Ji Yuan and Yun Qingyang were stunned for a moment.
They didn't expect that Dao Wufa would also be interested in that palace.
They couldn't help but wonder in their hearts, where did Dao Wufa come from?
Is it really as he said, just a casual cultivator master?
The Primordial Mine is extremely dangerous, he wants to go.
That palace that runs away on its own, that is the target that all the major forces are tracking, he also wants to go.
Does a casual cultivator really have such courage to act like this?
Although they were suspicious in their hearts, they did not ask.
Everyone has secrets, especially cultivators.
Since the little friend has fabricated the saying of a casual cultivator master, he probably doesn't want to reveal his true origin.
If they ask again, wouldn't it seem that their emotional intelligence is too low?
No matter what his origin is, they only need to know that he is not their enemy, but instead helps them, why bother caring so much.
"There is no definite news about that palace yet.
Our many forces have been tracking it, but it is too mysterious, and it always gets rid of the lock very quickly.
Tracking it is not an easy task.
But little friend, don't worry, once there is definite news, we will definitely inform you as soon as possible."
"In that case, thank you two old brothers.
Let's separate here, the two old brothers leave your contact information.
When Old Brother Ji Yuan's ZIwei Dao Earth takes over the mining rights of the Primordial Mine, we can contact each other in time."
"Okay."
Ji Yuan and Yun Qingyang each took out a jade talisman from their arms and handed it over, "There is our secret method in the jade talisman. This thing is similar to a forbidden weapon. Since it is a non-attack forbidden weapon, the number of times it can be used is still okay.
Little friend holds this thing, and we can contact little friend ten times. After ten times, the jade talisman will crack and lose its effect."
Speaking of this, Ji Yuan took out a scroll from his storage ring and said: "This is a map of the internal sub-regions of the secret earth, with the names of various places marked on it.
At that time, the old man will contact the little friend and say where to meet, and the little friend can find it according to the map."
"Okay, then I will wait for the old brother's news."
Jun Wuxie put away the map.
"Little friend, we are leaving, you and your junior sisters must be careful.
Now all the forces are looking for you, you must take care!"
"Little friend, take care!"
Ji Yuan and Yun Qingyang took a deep look at Jun Wuxie, and then broke through the air and left.
"My Lord, where are we going now, are we going to wait for the powerhouses of the various forces to find us here?"
Chu Moli knew that he wanted to lure out the Great Luo Golden Immortals of the various forces.
Jun Wuxie shook his head and said: "No, the plan has changed. There is no need to use each other with the various forces, because I have other ways to enter the Primordial Mine.
Now, let's go cultivate. There are still a few days left. Using the double time symbol array, we will have hundreds of days to cultivate.
Fortunately, there are now reincarnation fruits and high-quality Tianyuan immortal peridot on my body.
These days of waiting cannot be wasted."
After he finished speaking, he walked straight towards the depths of the island.
Chu Moli and Chu Yudie hurriedly followed.
Jun Wuxie did not intend to leave this island.
After arriving at the depths, he casually found a valley, sacrificed the Eight-Nine Mysterious Palace, turned it into a pebble in the valley stream, and then pulled Chu Yudie and Chu Moli into the space inside the palace.
He left one of his Primal Avatars outside, using the Little Void Art to hide it, so that Ji Yuan could contact him a few days later.
Otherwise, if he was in the Eight-Nine Mysterious Palace, Ji Yuan would not be able to contact him through the jade talisman.
