Chapter 601: Impending Catastrophe (1/2)
Upon reaching the doors, a gentle yet demanding voice suddenly echoed in their ears, ”Friends, this is not a place you can just go whenever you want. I advise you to step back and go back from whence you came.”
Sure enough, the ancestors of the Wind Gate didn't welcome them. Although the tone was gentle, it had carried the supremacy of being an apex existence.
Jin Rou's group felt an intense pressure that they never felt in their lives. It was a warning from an immortal that one step closer might lead to losing their lives.
”We are here because of an important reason.” Jin Rou smiled. He wasn't affected by the pressure the voice gave, ”If you shoo us away, your gate will be done for.”
”We are the strongest powerhouse in the whole Immortal. Who could give us a the pending doom you're talking about?” The gentle voice became cold, ”Or are you saying that you will bring us that doom?”
”Although I have the capabilities, I don't much have much interest in your Wind Gate. Furthermore, your gate has benefited so much that I couldn't do something about it.” Jin Rou chuckled, ”I'm just here to return the favor. To help your Wind Gate survive this catastrophe.”
The other side of the door didn't answer immediately. It seemed that it was contemplating about something. As apex experts who stood at the very top of the world, they could distinguish the lies and truths as a whole.
”What is this catastrophe you're saying?” Finally after a whole hour of silence, the other voice suddenly asked.
”If you want to know, you have to open the door for us.” Jin Rou said. His demand wouldn't change no matter what.
Then without further ado, the ancient door opened slowly.
”I like decisive ones.” Jin Rou smiled and entered the hall. The others followed suit, afraid that they might fall behind.
Once they entered the door, the ancient door closed once again and the candles in a perfect row lit up. What met their eyes were two statues sitting in lotus position. They had green robes that perfectly match their appearances.
”Immortalization, the act of becoming a stone to preserve one's life.” Zachary gasped. This was the first time he had seen this, though he had read some of this in old records.
”That's right, it's an Immortalization.” Jin Rou confirmed. They were the very first immortals he met that could accomplish such a hard feat.
Take note, not all perfect immortals have the capability to do Immortalization. It required so much comprehension of life and understanding about the dao. Many experts claimed that one have to prove his dao first before reaching this state.
The old man immortal in Jin Rou's group was also in amazement. Remember, he was also a perfect immortal but he still couldn't do this!
