Be the Hardest Working Demon Cultivator!-Chapter 562 - 301, The Fabricated Past and Future_2
Chapter 562: 301, The Fabricated Past and Future_2 Chapter 562: 301, The Fabricated Past and Future_2 However, the affairs of the Immortal King had nothing to do with her.
She didn’t care what secrets they held!
All she cared about was her foundation for attaining Dao, the River of Sword Dao that she forged through countless hardships, and someone dared to call it a “casual creation!”
“Since two Daoists take pleasure in your work, let me join in as well,” said the ultimate being of the Banhu Realm, gazing at the Long River of Time, instantly revealing countless figures.
Quickly, she locked onto a figure.
At the moment this figure was locked, all images related to this figure manifested.
These included not only the experiences of the figure but also the thoughts in its mind.
...
“Investiture of the Gods? Four Swords of Exterminating Immortals?”
“An intriguing concept, since that’s the case, let me help you turn this illusion into reality!”
As these words fell, a turbulent flow surged within the River of Sword Dao, and the land of the past connected by this river was struck by the torrent, unleashing an illusory world.
However, although this world was originally illusionary, the moment it manifested, all beings within came vividly to life.
Moreover, this illusory world reached a level comparable to the Ten Desolation Realm.
In the Land of Primordial Slumber within the Banhu Realm, to take a second step, it created the Ten Desolation Realm, aiming to evolve its entirely new foundation and elevate its qualifications to a point hopeful for the third step.
But because it desired too much, this eventually led to failure in the final step, with the True Body slumbering and only nine desolaces evolving from the intended ten.
Updated from freewёbnoνel.com.
Nine is the limit of numbers, and ten is perfection.
Achieving this perfect state is naturally difficult, as it exists only in theory and not in reality.
At the moment this false world was born, it produced a strange attraction toward Tan Shuchang, and an incredible Sword Dao power pierced directly through the road of the past.
This caused all the figures in the Long River, who were part of the past in the Banhu Realm, to show surprise.
Thus, those in the first step of Banhu Realm chose to cooperate with this Sword Dao power, sending the figure from the Long River to an extremely distant past.
Meanwhile, the figures in the second step of the Banhu Realm, recognizing the trace of the original source of Sword Dao power, realized whose power it was.
Therefore, these figures at the second step also did not obstruct.
Although these figures at the second step did not assist, they merely observed indifferently, as long as the Banhu Realm figures of this time period did not obstruct, then the Sword Dao power could flow unhindered!
Thus, quite swiftly, Tan Shuchang was handed over by the Banhu Realm figures to this ancient location in the Long River of Time.
And during this period, due to the difference in realms, Tan Shuchang completely failed to notice.
However, as a disciple of the Sacred Gate, being suspicious was inevitable. Tan Shuchang had also experienced the legends of the Long River several times and understood his traces within it, but something was clearly amiss now.
He had been in the Long River for far too long!
And his soul had consistently felt no discomfort!
Tan Shuchang knew he could become a supreme being within Heaven’s Authority’s Righteous Law, and clearly understood that even Heaven’s Authority’s Extreme couldn’t stop him.
But this combat ability was useless in the Long River.
His soul couldn’t withstand such a prolonged journey through the Long River of Time.
“Has something unexpected occurred?”
“Or is it man-made?”
Tan Shuchang pondered because he couldn’t leave the Long River of Time, and considering there were no apparent enemies from the Banhu Realm, he naturally wondered if it was deliberate… after all, suspecting had no downside.
Suddenly, Tan Shuchang sensed that he could detach from the Long River of Time and immediately without hesitation, he withdrew.
In an instant, a dense spiritual energy rushed toward him.
Tan Shuchang looked at the scenes of this world, and for a moment he was somewhat perplexed. He had sensed this world and not only was it not within the Ten Desolation Realm, but it was also in a world called “Primordial.”
Primordial, without a clear referent, usually means ancient or from a long time ago.
This term could be applied to the Fifth Realm or the First Realm, the Land of the Four Pillars, the Five Layers World, and even the Nanzhan Continent of the Ten Desolation Realm, to specifically indicate a past era.
However, if it were merely the name of a world, called Primordial, then Tan Shuchang would not be so uncertain. The reason he felt this way was that he saw various feudal lords in this world, and there was a dynasty called Shang, where in a place called Xiqi, an army was rising to overthrow the Shang Dynasty.
Additionally, this conflict between the two dynasties surprisingly attracted a large number of cultivators.
Among these cultivators, there were those who had not yet become immortals, but also those who had already become immortals, possessing extremely profound Immortal Path cultivation to the level of Heaven’s Authority’s Righteous Law.
Immortals and mortals coexisted and battled together!
“Is this really that ‘Primordial?'” Tan Shuchang frowned slightly, sensing everything felt incredibly real, yet he was still somewhat doubtful.
Thus, Tan Shuchang could not help but sense more carefully.
After a moment, having confirmed that everything in this world was very real, Tan Shuchang could not help but think, “Could it be that I have inherited this from my mother?”
After all, the nature of the Ghost Mother, known for her suspicion, was infamous.
“No, perhaps it is actually a problem with this world. Primordial is just a mythological story in my memory. Given that the Banhu Realm can traverse the Long River of time as easily as walking on flat ground, it would be quite reasonable to create something in the past or future.”
“So, is this the doing of someone from the Banhu Realm?”
Tan Shuchang instantly thought of the Karma Venerable from above the Heavenly Realm of the Five Layers World, but upon further thought, he felt that was not the case, as this Karma Venerable clearly lacked something.
According to Daoist Shi Xin, the Karma Venerable’s state in the Banhu Realm, in some ways, could only be considered partial, fundamentally incomplete!
After all, having cultivated to a realm beyond Heaven’s Authority’s Extreme yet being trapped in one place unable to free himself did not seem like a description fitting for someone of a realm above Heaven’s Authority.
Moreover, even though the Karma Venerable possessed the power of the Banhu Realm above the Heavenly Realm, his power significantly diminished once he left that realm.
“Then, could it be the power of the Banhu Realm that appeared in the Ten Desolation Realm?”
Tan Shuchang thought carefully, then shook his head.
As he had enhanced himself with the power of the Banhu Realm, the adversary had indeed forced him into the Long River of time in an instant, but Tan Shuchang had also clearly understood the adversary’s essence.
The adversary demonstrated a might equivalent to his own; however, he was clearly more proficient in wielding the power of the Banhu Realm.
“So, boldly assuming, could this be the work of a third Banhu Realm entity that I am unaware of, operating covertly?”
Tan Shuchang thought for a moment and instantly focused on that river flowing with various swords.
Without a doubt, it belonged to the master of this River of Sword Dao.
“By intruding upon it, did I anger the other party?” Tan Shuchang’s gaze shifted slightly, prepared to use the power of the Banhu Realm a second time.
However, at that moment, a resonating sound suddenly erupted throughout this world.
Tan Shuchang’s gaze swept over and found that a Sword Array had been broken, and four swords full of lethal energy were about to break free from the formation.
“Four Swords of Exterminating Immortals?”
Thus, Tan Shuchang stretched out his hand and directly snatched them from the air.
Although those four swords had initially been controlled by four individuals, Tan Shuchang’s snatch caused them to break free from control and then flew into his hands.
Then, Tan Shuchang began to carefully examine the four swords in his hand.
“It truly is the Banhu Treasure, a semi-finished product mentioned by Daoist Shi Xin…” Tan Shuchang could barely contain his surprise and at the same time, he confirmed that his arrival here was the doing of the master of the River of Sword Dao.
At this moment, due to Tan Shuchang’s sudden action, the gazes of six figures were already looking his way. Naturally, there was no need to elaborate on who these six were.
However, it was interesting that when Tan Shuchang used a small technique derived from his first application of the power of the Banhu Realm, he observed that these six figures were all faceless!
“Is it because this level of realm is involved, it’s not good to really create something out of nothing, so they can only create the shape, and not the substance?” Tan Shuchang pondered thoughtfully.
