Chapter 256: Chapter 253: The Seventh Pillar of the Sky-reaching Pillar_2
Once we’re out, find time to erase the imprint of the Ten Thousand Aspects Immortal Emperor and refine it!
Back at the Pill League, Li Cheng clearly sensed that Emperor Qing had immediately released his Immortal Sense, uncertain of his intentions.
Bai Xian was staring at the Wordless Heavenly Scripture with excitement, “We actually brought it out, we really did!”
The Wordless Heavenly Scripture was also trembling slightly, as if overjoyed, but as it trembled, the laws within this world became much more active.
As Bai Xian had said, upon the appearance of the Wordless Heavenly Scripture, the entire ambiance of the Kunlun Realm was elevated.
As one of the ten great Heavenly books, it seems the Wordless Heavenly Scripture was born in the Kunlun Realm, just like the Chaos Yuan Heavenly Scripture.
“Where’s the last page?” a voice from the Heavenly book inquired, belonging to the spirit of the Heavenly book.
Suppressing his excitement, Bai Xian replied, “It has also taken form, and is now cultivating at the Heavenly Mechanism Sect in the Southern Domain.”
Upon the mention of the Heavenly Mechanism Sect, Emperor Qing also retracted his Immortal Sense, looking forward with expectation at Li Cheng and Immortal Emperor Tianyuan. In his eyes was a longing for his descendants at the Heavenly Mechanism Sect, whom he had not seen in over a hundred thousand years.
But he did not mention this, knowing that the escape of the Ten Thousand Aspects Immortal Emperor from the Three-way Abyss was the more urgent matter at hand.
After a brief moment of contemplation, Emperor Qing said, “The entrance to the Three-way Abyss is atop the seventh pillar, a billion miles east from here. If the Ten Thousand Aspects Immortal Emperor has left the Three-way Abyss, he definitely would have emerged from there.”
The nine Sky-reaching Pillars crafted by the Chaos Clan were later arranged within the Divine Palace Region, the seventh being situated in the east.
He had investigated with his Immortal Sense earlier to see if there had been significant changes within the Divine Palace Region over the past hundred thousand years.
The Wordless Heavenly Scripture gave a cough, “Yes, I mentioned the nine Sky-reaching Pillars because one of them harbors the entrance to the Three- way Abyss. I just wasn’t certain which one it was. Unexpectedly, he knew.”
Immortal Emperor Tianyuan turned to Li Cheng, “Ready for another battle?”
Li Cheng’s Immortal Sense reached towards the location mentioned by Emperor Qing, “If he’s already left the Three-way Abyss, finding him will be difficult. If he hasn’t left yet, blocking him is not a certainty either, so whether we fight again is a matter of luck.”
If the Ten Thousand Aspects Immortal Emperor had left the Three-way Abyss, he would certainly hide and secretly integrate with his other selves.
Should he still be inside, he’s surely trying to breach the Netherworld’s entrance in search of the Book of Life and Death.
After all, he has not cultivated the Chaos Yuan Heavenly Scripture; unlike Li Cheng and Immortal Emperor Tianyuan, he cannot move the stele freely.
However, now that Li Cheng held the Judge Pen, he wasn’t worried about the Ten Thousand Aspects Immortal Emperor being able to break the dual seals of the Chaos Yuan Divine Temple and the Chaos Yuan Heavenly Scripture.
Immortal Emperor Tianyuan pondered for a moment before nodding, “Indeed, he most likely has already left. Every region in Kunlun, and even realms outside of Kunlun, contain his avatars. It’s likely that he won’t appear in the Kunlun Realm for a while.”
Li Cheng nodded, and while speaking, his Immortal Sense detected a vast lake that spanned thousands of miles, more than a billion miles east.
The central area of the lake was thousands of miles deep and featured an even deeper abyss at its bottom.
Within this abyss, Immortal Sense was completely blocked, but it was not a direct obstruction; rather, the blockage increased with depth, creating the impression that it was due to extreme water pressure that one couldn’t probe further.
There, Li Cheng noticed Emperor Qing’s Immortal Sense, which clearly indicated that the seventh pillar he spoke of was located here.
Compared to the Sky-reaching Pillar, Li Cheng thought that it might be more apt to call it the Sea-extinguishing Divine Needle…
“Once he resurfaces, who knows how strong he will have become. Li Cheng, I think you should return to the Heavenly Mechanism Sect and continue your seclusion!” Immortal Emperor Tianyuan suggested.
Indeed, the Ten Thousand Aspects Immortal Emperor was powerful; even as a Perfect Immortal Emperor, Emperor Qing could barely withstand a single move from him.
But for Li Cheng, the most troublesome aspect was the Ten Thousand Aspects Immortal Emperor’s Law field.
His Law field only integrated the extreme Laws of life and death, both exceeding sixty thousand in number, far more than Li Cheng’s, leaving him only to be suppressed.
However, Li Cheng wasn’t particularly worried about facing the Ten Thousand Aspects Immortal Emperor now. As long as he refined the Judge Pen and used his cultivation to wield it, he could easily break through the Ten Thousand Aspects Immortal Emperor’s Law field.
Ultimately, he was just lacking a powerful Law Immortal Artifact.
At the Immortal Emperor Realm, ordinary Immortal Artifacts didn’t hold much significance.
“Moreover, the Judge Pen holds the imprint of the Ten Thousand Aspects Immortal Emperor. I believe Tianji Zi will find a way to deduce that fellow’s whereabouts or extract the imprint as a precaution,” Immortal Emperor Tianyuan added.
Li Cheng nodded, “We’ll talk more when we get back.”
At the Heavenly Mechanism Sect, Qingxuan was excitedly standing in front of the Transmission Array, frequently clenching his fists.
Husband, relax a little. Your father won’t be able to return until tomorrow,” Qing Yun’s mother consoled.
Qingxuan took a deep breath, though his gaze didn’t leave the Transmission Array, and nodded, “I understand, it’s just that after so many years, I don’t know how my father is faring. Elder Li didn’t mention it in his message!”
Qing Yun looked at Qingxuan beside her, “Father, what exactly has grandfather been doing all these years?”
Qingxuan sighed, “Your grandfather didn’t say, perhaps there wasn’t time. He only sent the Pen of Life and Death back, let’s not dwell on it. You’ll see your grandfather tomorrow; we can ask him then!”
The next day when Li Cheng and the others returned, quite a few people were already waiting outside the Transmission Array.
Li Cheng was surprised; he had just messaged Qingxuan about Emperor Qing’s return, and didn’t expect that so many of the higher-ups of the Heavenly Mechanism Sect would come.
Were these fellows from the Heavenly Mechanism Sect so idle?
Father! Qingxuan was the first to rush forward, overjoyed to greet Emperor Qing.
The smile on Emperor Qing’s face grew wider and wider. He patted Qingxuan’s shoulder, then shifted his gaze to Qing Yun, and his eyes sparkled ever more strongly, “Good! Good!”
