Chapter 1279 Five Great Immortals’ Ruins
Wuwu
The wind blew strongly.
Lin Feng’s tattered robe rustled, as if carried away by the wind. He retreated hundreds of thousands of meters in one breath, until the silhouette of Burial Sword Mountain completely disappeared behind him. Only then did he stop, his breathing already slightly labored!
Recalling the scenes from moments ago, his mind couldn’t calm down. Looking back, everything behind him was peaceful, as if nothing had happened!
Burial Sword Mountain had fallen silent, and Jige had disappeared!
Along with him,
Tens of thousands of cultivators!
So many people, all perished in that instant.
“Jige!”
Lin Feng murmured.
His relationship with Jige wasn’t particularly close; they both had ulterior motives. He wanted to use Jige’s power, while Jige coveted the seven-colored figure inside his body!
So his feelings toward Jige had always been indifferent, even somewhat resentful!
Yet now,
Jige had died for him!!!
Was Jige really dead?
Buried within Burial Sword Mountain?
Or as he claimed, no one in heaven or earth could kill him?
Lin Feng didn’t know,
His mind was in chaos, his thoughts blank.
“Brother Lin.”
Huo Miaomiao’s sorrowful voice sounded in Lin Feng’s ears.
Lin Feng looked down at Huo Miaomiao, his expression somewhat dazed and confused.
If not for Huo Miaomiao, he would have just left!
But because he saved Huo Miaomiao, he implicated Jige. Jige had desperately tried to stop him, but he wouldn’t listen. As a result, he was fine, but Jige was gone.
Truly, the great Dao is merciless,
To gain something, must one lose something else?
“It’s my fault. If you hadn’t saved me, you wouldn’t have harmed your friend.”
Huo Miaomiao felt guilty,
She wanted to cry, but seeing Lin Feng’s lost expression, she couldn’t. Instead, she felt a deep ache in her heart.
“I’m not blaming you, I’m just thinking about some things! This damn world!”
Lin Feng smiled bitterly and shook his head.
He put Huo Miaomiao down, but couldn’t let go of her hand. She held his hand tightly, unwilling to release it.
Lin Feng didn’t mind, as he was pondering Jige’s words!
What scheme?
What earth-shattering secret?
Burial Sword Mountain was located on the outskirts of the Taixu Forbidden Zone, and perhaps had some unknown connection to the interior of the zone. He had stumbled upon something by accident, causing hidden secrets to surface, which led to everyone being silenced!
“Actually, places like Burial Sword Mountain, there are five such locations around the Taixu Forbidden Zone. In legends, they’re all sites left behind from battles between immortals!”
Huo Miaomiao suddenly said.
“Five locations?”
Lin Feng frowned.
“Yes, according to ancient records, an immortal’s sword strike created Burial Sword Mountain. After his death, his immortal blood formed Taixu Lake, his torso became Taixu Ancient Forest, his limbs transformed into four heaven-reaching pillars, and his head became the Taixu Secret Realm!”
“Burial Sword Mountain, Taixu Lake, Taixu Ancient Forest, the Heaven-reaching Pillars, and the Taixu Secret Realm are all products of immortal ways, containing immortal energy. Legend has it that these five places hold secrets that can help people become immortals, which is why so many people rush here from all directions.”
Huo Miaomiao explained softly.
Lin Feng felt a chill throughout his body upon hearing this.
After experiencing what just happened, he knew that Burial Sword Mountain didn’t contain any secrets to immortality, but was instead a massive trap, designed to devour the essence blood and souls of cultivators who tried to comprehend it!
What about the other four locations?
They must be the same as Burial Sword Mountain!
The battle between immortals occurred at the beginning of creation, ten thousand years ago. During such a long period, how many people had died in these five immortal sites?
The more Lin Feng thought about it, the more disturbed he felt. Combined with what Jige had said, he seemed to be touching upon some terrifying secret.
The strange beings on the immortal path,
The immortals in the Tribulation Temple,
And the Taixu Forbidden Zone,
What did it all mean when put together?
“You said these five places surround the Taixu Forbidden Zone, so what exactly is the Taixu Forbidden Zone?”
Lin Feng asked solemnly.
“I’m not sure about that either. Some say the Taixu Forbidden Zone isn’t anything special, just the place where the immortal battle occurred, and the destructive energy from their fight lingered, forming the forbidden zone!”
“But others speculate that after the immortal’s death, his heart transformed into the Taixu Forbidden Zone! There are many theories, all kinds of explanations!”
Huo Miaomiao shared everything she knew.
Upon hearing this, Lin Feng thought of something and immediately flew upward, soaring toward the sky. Having studied formations and domains, he wanted to observe the geographical layout of the Taixu Forbidden Zone from above.
But after flying for just a while, Lin Feng immediately felt an intense pressure. Even with his strength, he couldn’t withstand it. If he flew any higher, even his immortal body might collapse!
Left with no choice, Lin Feng had to descend!
“Brother Lin, why did you fly so high? The Taixu Forbidden Zone has a no-fly domain; cultivators can’t fly very high here!”
“I heard this no-fly domain is a formation set by immortals long ago. Many powerful figures who came here wanting to fly high were forced down! Throughout history, it seems only one person has flown above ten thousand miles high!”
Huo Miaomiao quickly explained.
“Who was that person?”
“I think his name was Ye Xuan!”
Huo Miaomiao replied.
Lin Feng was shocked to hear this.
Because too many incredible things had happened around Ye Xuan!
Ye Xuan was the only person to walk out alive from the depths of the Taixu Forbidden Zone, and also the only one who had encountered strange beings on the immortal path and successfully escaped. Now, he was also the only one who had flown above the Taixu Forbidden Zone and observed its domain!
“What kind of secret is hidden in this place? And what does Ye Xuan know?”
Lin Feng’s expression was complex.
He really wanted to grab Ye Xuan and question him thoroughly, but his strength wasn’t sufficient. Besides, even if it were, given Ye Xuan’s deadpan personality, he probably wouldn’t reveal anything.
“Swoosh swoosh swoosh…”
As they were talking,
Many cultivators were gathering from all directions,
All attracted by the disturbance from Burial Sword Mountain.
Just now, the aura of that battle was too terrifying, changing the color of the sky above. Even tens of thousands of miles away, it could be clearly felt!
“Burial Sword Mountain is one of the five immortal legacy sites, and has always been peaceful and serene. But just now it emitted such a terrifying fluctuation. Could someone have comprehended the immortal sword intent?”
“No way! If someone could comprehend the immortal sword intent, that would be too frightening! The balance of the world would change, and a fifth major power would rise!”
“Hmph! How could immortal sword intent be so easily comprehended?”
People discussed among themselves as they flew toward Burial Sword Mountain.
At this moment,
Someone’s eyes flashed, noticing Lin Feng and Huo Miaomiao below. Both were covered in dust, especially Lin Feng whose clothes were torn to shreds. Anyone could tell something was wrong.
“Kid, you came from Burial Sword Mountain, right? What just happened over there?”
A burly middle-aged man directly questioned.
His gaze fixed on Lin Feng, his eyes sharp as swords, his entire being exuding the authority of a powerful expert!
