Chapter 614 - Mysterious Passage Connecting the Ordinary World and the Immortal World (1/2)
Everyone nodded and did not have any objections to the skull-faced Supreme Eternal’s words.
“What he said is true. If we’re talking about the art of infiltration, there is indeed no one here who is better than you.”
“Then I’ll have to trouble Brother Skull Face to go and scout around first to see if the Xuan Yuan god clan has any defense mechanisms.”
“Alright, everyone, please wait for a moment. I’ll be back soon.”
…
On the Phoenix Plains’ side, Ye Xiao still did not know that the Xuan Yuan god clan had already been targeted by someone. At that moment, he was deep into that bottomless cave in the Phoenix Plains.
He had no idea how far he had descended, yet he still could not see the bottom.
“This cave is really deep!”
Ye Xiao’s brows raised slightly. He had already descended so deep, yet he still could not see the bottom and did not know the end.
Just thinking about it made him angry.

Just what was going on?
‘Why don’t I try using the Space-time immortal technique?’
Ye Xiao had only used the Space-time immortal technique when he first came in. After that, he chose to descend slowly and did not advance too quickly.
Since he did not know what exactly was down there, he still needed to be more cautious.
Of course, even if it was said to be a slow descent, with his normal speed, it was still as fast as the speed of light.
After taking a deep breath, Ye Xiao increased his speed. The Space-time immortal technique took a full minute to reach the end of that tunnel.
However, he had just arrived at the entrance of the cave when he felt a wave of dense spiritual energy!
“Hiss! What dense spiritual energy!”
Ye Xiao could not help but suck in a breath of cold air, and his scalp went numb.
That shocked him greatly!
One had to know that although he was not a Supreme Eternal, he was already comparable to one!
His strength was unquestionable.
However, when he stepped foot there, he discovered that the energy and aura in that place had already exceeded the limits of his physical body.
The power was too strong. Once it entered his meridians, it actually began to damage them. However, all the immortal techniques within him quickly began to circulate again, slowly digesting that portion of energy and repairing his injured body.
No, it was not spiritual energy, it was immortal energy!
Was that… The immortal world?
Ye Xiao’s heartbeat could not help but accelerate.
However, if it was really the immortal world, then why was it in the Phoenix Plains?
Moreover, the Phoenix Empress did not tell him that there was such an important passageway leading to the immortal world and there was no way she would not tell him about it.
Then there was only one possibility. She did not know about the passage.
Could it be that the Phoenix god clan’s ancestors created the passage?
In Ye Xiao’s previous discussion with the Blood Venerable One, including his discussion with the Phoenix Empress, he knew that the immortal world and the ordinary world had been one entity a long time ago.
However, because there were too many martial arts prodigies later on, it resulted in an imbalance. There was no other way. The almighty martial arts prodigies used powerful methods to separate it and built a barrier, causing the immortal world and the ordinary world to be separated. They were martial arts prodigies above the Supreme Eternal realm and they could no longer affect the ordinary world.
That was also why that immortal could not come down to deal with him.
Suddenly, he had actually found a passageway that allowed him to freely travel between the two worlds!
That passageway was very likely to have been secretly left behind by a mighty figure during the immemorial era when those mighty figures built the barrier between the two worlds.
It was also very likely that the mighty figure was the Phoenix god clan’s ancestor. It was just that no one knew about it. Even the Phoenix god clan’s descendants did not know about it. It was only when the Phoenix Empress transcended the tribulation and advanced to the True Immortal realm that the passageway was inadvertently activated.
The corners of Ye Xiao’s mouth curled up slightly.
That was a good thing!
Back then, those mighty figures had divided the world into the immortal world and the ordinary world. Not only did they separate the strong from the weak.
At the same time, they also separated the stronger and purer material energy.
In other words, the immortal energy of the immortal world and the spiritual energy of the ordinary world were two different concepts, or rather, it was an even more condensed version of spiritual energy.
Only by advancing to the True Immortal realm could one progress to the immortal world and absorb the immortal energy!
Otherwise, it would be impossible to absorb the immortal energy otherwise.
Moreover, the speed at which one absorbed the immortal energy to increase one’s cultivation was definitely faster than the speed at which one absorbed the spiritual energy.
It was equivalent to inadvertently giving oneself a chance to speed up cultivation again!
Throughout his cultivation, he had been one step faster than others in the case of advancement speed. However, after reaching the lesser Supreme Eternal realm, he did not have the energy to quickly increase his cultivation, so he had no choice but to block the Supreme Eternal Lighting Tribulation, extracting the power of laws from it.
