Chapter 420: The One Who Defied The Old Covenant And Survived

Although the Little White Tiger was very angry and wanted to hang the Ghost Monk up and beat him. In the end, she still ran back.

"You're lying!" she exclaimed with her round face, big eyes and fat cheeks. A white tiger's manifestation appeared behind her. It roared and tried to highlight her powerful demeanor.

However, with her plump appearance and in the form of a young girl. She couldn't exude any dignity. It was like a little kitten looking in the mirror and thinking it's a tiger king. She was just feeling good about herself.

"What the novice said is all true." said Wukong with a kind face. He was dressed in a plain and simple monk's robe and was looking honest and sincere, just like a monk who never tells lies.

"So old yet still pretending to be young!" said the White Tiger. The round-faced girl couldn't stand the Ghost Monk no matter how she looked at him. She was wishing to find a hundred faults in every word he said.

Of course, she didn't forget the main issue. Regardless of belief, she had to further inquire about the details about why the strongest had come to him.

"Don't mislead me. As you know, this might involve the parents of the Demon Lord. If she's unhappy, the consequences will be severe!" she threatened. It was like a tiger with the fierceness of a fox.

In the immortal realm, many people knew that the parents of the Demon Lord were extremely powerful. Not to mention her father, her mother alone was extraordinary. She was a twelve-tailed white fox that transcended the celestial fox lineage. However, this couple who were at the height of their power unexpectedly disappeared. There were various rumors, and many believed they had been killed.

"That night, there was a ball of lightning with terrifying thunder, and there was also a soft white light accompanying it. My heart trembled, but I could only grit my teeth and answer." said the Ghost Monk.

"What did they look like?" The round-faced girl became alert and asked carefully, such as whether there were people in the light, what they looked like, and how their spiritual fluctuations were.

"I couldn't face it directly. The lightning was so intense that it was shaking one's spirit unstable. I was unable to see what was inside. The soft white light was ethereal and celestial, but without a specific form. I feel they didn't have physical bodies." the monk replied.

The Ghost Monk was actually very strong, he was close to the quasi-supreme level. However, when faced with those two lights, his spirit trembled. Those two lights must be very strong!

"That night, the heavens and earth were abnormal. There was a sea of thunder, as if the Milky Way was pouring down to submerge the earth," further described the Ghost Monk, and he expressed some speculations.

"I believe it was the resurrection of the highest-level beings. The strongest are awakening from their slumber and it is triggering intense turmoil of the remaining extraordinary rules between heaven and earth. It was extremely terrifying. I was just a hair's breadth away from breaking through to quasi-supreme level, but that night, my spirit was shaken out of my body, and my flesh trembled," he said.

His words left the round-faced girl stunned. It had been a long time since she had heard such a commotion. She estimated that it wouldn't be weaker than the Demon Lord, Yan Yan.

"Where did it happen?" she further inquired. Her small round face tensed up and became extremely serious.

"It happened near these mountainous areas," replied the Ghost Monk.

The round-faced girl was skeptical, saying, "You coincidentally encountered them right after their resurrection. Isn't that too coincidental? You're nothing special, old and dark-looking. Could it be that you accidentally disturbed their slumber?"

"I am very respectful," the Ghost Monk clasped his hands together.

"I've been separated from the Demon Lord for some time. If those two big shots have truly resurrected, I wonder if they've gone to see the Demon Lord!" muttered the White Tiger to herself.

Half a month ago, the Demon Lord embarked on a journey, riding the blood-stained spaceship with Fang Yuzhu. They entered the depths of the universe, not knowing when they would return.

The Ghost Monk said, "I feel that the world is about to be in chaos. Even rumors of the deceased strongest from two or three thousand years ago seem to be reappearing. Anything is possible. The last remnants of the transcendent flames, the resurgence of light, the Demon Emperor, one or two ancient emperors who survived from antiquity, they might all come out and cause various disturbances."

"You old ghost, your words are really ominous. What 'dead'? They haven't died at all, theyre not that far away. This can only be considered as powerful companions walking the earth!"

In An City, under the clear sky, dark clouds suddenly rolled in and lightning streaked across the sky like silver waterfalls. It was then followed by torrential rain that was exceptionally frightening. The entire sky and earth were filled with rainwater as if there was a flood in the sky. It was pitch black until the point that one was unable to see anything. The downpour could be seen hanging in the air only when there were flashes of lightning.

"This isn't rain, it's more like a river pouring down!" In the Immortal Tea House, Huang Ming exclaimed. As a cunning yellow weasel spirit he felt a deep fear stemming from his bloodline and innermost being when faced with such tremendous thunder and lightning.

Obviously, many transcendents realized that this kind of dark cloud storm coupled with the vast thunder and lightning was extremely abnormal. It was like someone was undergoing an unprecedented heavenly tribulation. In this era, theoretically speaking, there shouldn't be any peerless beings being born in the mortal realm.

"It shouldn't be a tribulation. It's most likely the work of the strongest in the immortal realm. It's somewhat frightening. Who could be behind this?"

"I reckon someone is sending disciples across realms. With a considerable number of people, it's extremely difficult to resist the old covenant, resulting in this situation. I heard that major factions are probably going to come over one after another. The delay can't go on any longer." People were discussing.

Wang Xuan had been sitting since noon and it was already approaching evening. Including Zhou Qinghuang, Gu Mingxi, Qilian Dao, Cao Qingyu, and others, none of them had left.

"It shouldn't be that Celestial Sword Maiden, right? Not only does she need to break through the constraints, but she also needs to break through several levels. It's said that her celestial sword has been nurtured for five hundred years. It was waiting for the moment of Nirvana." someone said.

"It's unlikely to be her. I heard she entered a higher spiritual realm, either at the summit of Mount Bu Zhou or in Yao Pool, so she couldn't be near the mortal realm." another replied.

Wang Xuan was astonished, knowing who they were talking about. It must be the Celestial Sword Maiden. The fact that she had nurtured her sword for five hundred years was quite terrifying because it accounted for more than half of her lifetime. She wasn't really old as she seemed to have been born after the Song Dynasty. However, Wang Xuan was sure that this commotion had nothing to do with the Celestial Sword Maiden. She wasn't near the mortal realm, nor was she in Yao Pool or Mount Bu Zhou. Instead, she was in a higher spiritual plane, the Guanghan Palace. Currently, only he knew about her location. The Celestial Sword Maiden was indeed about to break through to the peerless realm.

Outside An City, heavy rain poured down from the pitch-black sky to the earth. It was like the Milky Way pouring into the mortal realm. In the dark clouds, terrifying figures appeared and were silently tearing through the sky. It was as if something was coming! There were more than one terrifying figure. The shadows were like monuments that were occasionally outlined by lightning in the darkness. They appeared eerie amidst the rain curtain.

Swoosh!

A living being was approaching and it was rushing towards the earth like a comet crashing into the Old Worlds soil. Initially, it was pitch-black like ink but it started to emit a dazzling light in the rain curtain later on! Until the end, a living being crashed into the mountains outside An City. It pierced through the surface and headed straight down. It was unstoppable and almost unbelievable. The dazzling light dimmed slightly but the speed didn't decrease. It continued plunging downward and was heading towards the core of the earth as if it was targeting it. At the end, the living being emitted ripples akin to transcendent sonic waves. It probed and expanded deep into the earth then continued forward. After a long time, the living being cleared a path with terrifying weapons and dashed with extraordinary powers. Finally, it arrived at the deepest part of the underground that was close to the Earth's core. Finally, it stopped and its radiance converged. In the darkness, it wore a black cloak and its entire body was shrouded within.

This was a decaying world. There was another world deep underground that was near the Earth's core. It was a fragment of a land of blessings with quite a significant origin. Its scale was not small and was occupying a vast area. With its supernatural materials dried up, medicinal fields depleted, and all divine trees and spirit grasses dead and decayed. However, deep within this decaying fragment of the land of blessings, there stood a giant palace. Its gates were tightly closed and occasionally emanated faint traces of deathly aura.

"Friends, are you still living in the mortal realm? I've come to visit," the figure in black robes spoke with a hoarse voice, as if its throat was injured. The tone was unpleasant, making it difficult to distinguish whether it was male, female, or a beast.

It moved forward, crossing through the withered medicinal fields and passing by the desolate divine lake. This place was bleak and devoid of vitality. It reached the front of the giant palace, and it took out a bamboo staff from the black cloak then used it to tap on the palace door.

Thud thud thud!

In the pitch-black darkness that was deep underground and within this decaying fragment of the land of blessings, this sound spread exceptionally far. It broke the silence of thousands of years. It was quite chilling. Even in the transcendent realm and in the immortal realm, very few people knew that there lay such an ancient giant palace at the core of the Old World, with someone tightly closing its doors and lurking inside. Amidst the persistent knocking, the doors of the giant palace silently swung open. Immediately after opening, a putrid smell emitted from within. Inside it, one could see a floor littered with corpses. They were all desiccated, rotten, and in miserable states.

"True immortals who forcibly remain in the mortal realm, unwilling to abandon their physical bodies and enter the immortal realm. Many cultivators end up with such a fate," echoed the hoarse voice of the figure in black robes underground. Naturally, he knew what this place was. Those who became immortals but chose to stay in the mortal realm to continue their cultivation. They endured many years and violated the old covenant. Inevitably, they faced the Heavenly Five Decay Disease as their bodies were bound by rules. Their end was always tragic. However, some still chose to stay and resisted the decay. They persisted and were unwilling to leave the mortal realm. The outcome was destined to be far from wonderful.

The bodies on the ground were enough to tell the story. Some were decomposed and some depleted of their trans material. Originally immortal beings, they ended up in tragic deaths. However, the figure in black robes knew that there might still be living beings inside this giant palace. Because back in the day, there were individuals from the peerless level who chose to stay and did not enter the immortal realm.

Enduring immortality and breaking through to peerless levels naturally brought about indescribable great fortunes. Otherwise, they would have long since rotted away if they had not decayed and died shortly after becoming immortal.

"Sigh!" Sure enough, from the depths of the giant palace came a sigh. There were indeed living beings here, or more accurately, the strong peerless individuals who were still alive with their physical bodies!

The figure in black robes was shaken. Originally, he wasn't very sure whether there were true immortals still alive here. He only came back to take a look as per the agreement. Now, he was surprised. There were still people alive in the giant palace, which was somewhat frightening. The foundation of the people here was beyond imagination!

He spoke, "Friend, you have defied fate, resisted the old covenant, and persisted to this day. It's truly unimaginable! If you persist until the old covenant fails, will you transform into a dragon and roar through the heavens and earth? Will you break through the fog and soar freely?"

Outside An City, within the deep curtains of rain, a furry hand slowly reached out towards the earth!
