Chapter 125: The sun illuminates the mountains,rivers and flowers
This was definitely a peerless individual of the past, it was a pity that his bones were buried here, forgotten with the passing of time.
In the ancient times, countless cultivators had sorrow in their hearts, in the later years of these strong practitioners, they were still uncertain till their deaths.
Ye Fan could not find an exit, he could only decide on a direction before moving forward. Not long after, he discovered another set of skeletal remains lying on the ground, its lower jaw was lowered, as though it were filled with desolation before its death. There were also bloody words written on the ground as Ye Fan crouched down to decipher them. “Becoming an immortal…… Difficult! Difficult! Difficult!” These words were filled with a sense of bitterness, as though this person was filled with helplessness in his death.
“There are still some words here!” The purple cltohed lady looked towards the area below the arms of the skeleton.
Ye Fan gently pushed aside the arm as it immediately turned to dust, there were a few barely discernible words written: Celestial Rotating Jade, Yang Yizhen.
“Heavens!” The purple clothed lady was shocked, her cute red lips were wide open as she exclaimed: “Yang Yizhen of the Celestial Rotating Jade Sacred Ground, that is a peerless expert who has been recorded within the ancient annals of the Eastern Badlands. Fifteen thousand years ago, his name resounded throughout the Eastern Badlands, there were few who could match him, so he actually died here…….”
Hearing these words, Ye Fan was stunned, the Celestial Rotating Jade Sacred Ground was no more, only the crazed old man remained.
This immense palace actually held the remains of several peerless experts, they had flown in like moths to a fire, seeking the chance to become immortal but failing and dying in this place.
The third set of skeletal remains caused the young lady to scream, she was extremely excited, although the bloody words were blurry, it was still possible to discern them, the corpse was a famous person within the Ji Family.
“It’s an ancestor of our Ji Family from over nine thousand years ago, he was not only recorded within the annals of our Ji Family, even the annals of the Eastern Badlands have his name, who knew…….”
Ye Fan continued to move forward, he had seen over thirty corpses, a number of them had left their names and they were all peerless experts recorded within history.
Within the empty bronze palace, it was vast without end, there was simply no way to find an exit, the water from the lake did not flow into the palace, this was a space that was sealed off.
“Becoming an immortal is so difficult……” Ye Fan was moved, since ancient times there were several peerless experts within the Eastern Badlands who had stood at the pinnacle but had failed to attain it.
“How did these people die here? If we were to die here, even our remains would turn to dust.” The young lady was depressed, she would never have imagined that such a day would come to her.
“We can’t continue to stay here like this……” Ye Fan silently contemplated but could not come up with any ideas, so many talents had perished here, how could he escape from the confines of this place?”
Suddenly, the bronze palace began to tremble as an immense pressure like that of the universe began to descend, making one feel stifled
It was misty within the bronze palace, primordial chaos was swirling, thick and dense as it drowned towards the two, filled with desolation that simply could not be fended against.
This was an energy from the source, akin to the energies during the creation of the universe, creating countless worlds and starry filled skies, the primordial chaos explosively moved forward, impossible to deflect. If the two were drowned within, they would definitely die.
“I don’t want to die…….” The young lady moaned, reciting the names of the few famous people from the ancient past.
Ye Fan was thoroughly stunned, he did not have any methods to defend against the primordial chaos energy, in this moment several figures flashed through his mind, as though he had lived an entire life in a single moment.
Suddenly, Ye Fan’s Wheel and Sea began to gently tremble, the silent aurichalcite began to sway as the primordial chaos energy suddenly halted.
Thereafter, he felt the spring of life within his body become empty, the ancient aurichalcite actually flew out of the wheel and sea as it floated before him, it was without any lustre or energy, simple and unadorned.
“What is that?” The young lady was wide-eyed as she stared at it, her eyelashes were fluttering, clearly filled with curiousity.
Towering waves surged within Ye Fan’s mind, the aurichalcite had actually flown out on its own, this was something unprecedented, it gently trembled before him instantly causing the surroundings to become peaceful.
The aurchalcite flashed before burying itself within Ye Fan’s spring of life, his emotions simply could not remain calm. The young lady was extremely shocked as she continually questioned, however, he did not reply.
The bronze palace was desolate and silent, Ye Fan and the purple clothed lady were stunned to realise that they were no longer at their original positions, two doors had actually appeared in front of them.
There were over ten sets of skeletal remains on the ground, they were shining brightly with a brilliant lustre, they were wholly intact, clearly showing that they were far from ordinary.
Ye Fan walked forward as he gently knocked, the skeletal remains gave off metallic clanging noises as though they were made from metal, they were clearly far from ordinary and even the passing of time had not caused them to disintegrate. The skeletal repains had bloody words written next to them, one set of them caused Ye Fan to feel stunned.
“I have the heart of an immortal but have been confined in this place, when can I see the light of day again, viewing the countless mountains and clouds.”
This was a form of lamentation, a feeling of helplessness and hopelessness. When one reached such a realm, they were surely existences which had shaken the ancient past, however, they had still failed to attain immortality, these words were filled with indignation and aggrievement.
“This person……” The young lady seemed to blank out for a moment before muttering: “It was rumoured that this person had attained immortality, who knew that he actually died here.”
A person who was recognised as having attained immortality had actually fallen here, this made one question whether immortals actually existed.
Ye Fan began to carefully scrutinise the ten odd sets of skeletons, his heart was filled with questions, were there really immortals who had appeared within the Eastern Badlands?
Walking past the ten odd skeletal remains and coming before the two doors, Ye Fan felt his heart tremble. The two doors came together to form a Tai Chi symbol, the left door was that of the black Yin fish while the right door was that of the white Yang fish, both were irregularly bent like a crescent moon.
