Evil Venerable of the Sword Dao

Chapter 1484 - 8: Eternal Life Seven Rules

Hong Yuqiao arrived in front of the Heavenly Monument, glanced at it, and finally breathed a sigh of relief, saying, "There are three marks on the surface, enough to indicate that only three beings have entered. It should be the other three Fairies. Now, there are two remaining spots, just perfect for you. You should hurry up."

"The Heavenly Monument is right here, why hurry?"

Zhou Yan replied.

Hong Yuqiao rolled his eyes and gave Zhou Yan a captivating look, saying, "No matter which direction you go, after walking a million years, you will encounter the Heavenly Monument. The Heavenly Monument is definitely not the only one, so do you think a moment’s time is not important? A difference of a millionth of a breath, do you think it matters?"

Hong Yuqiao’s explanation finally made Zhou Yan’s expression change slightly.

Zhou Yan’s heart tightened, and he immediately flew towards the Heavenly Monument at full speed.

At this moment, Hong Yuqiao’s face showed surprise, seemingly sensing a change in the Heavenly Monument, and immediately disappeared into it.

Seeing this, Zhou Yan instantly knew that another being might enter the Heavenly Monument. With a flash of light, the evil spirit energy erupted, and Zhou Yan also transformed into a beam of light rushing towards the Heavenly Monument.

"Buzz——"

The void flickered, and Zhou Yan found himself entering an independent world.

This world was a real world, completely different from the previously inverted Heaven and Earth, causing Zhou Yan to fly into the sky as soon as he entered, even standing upside down.

This space wasn’t particularly large, but it was nearly a thousand meters in size.

The space inside resembled an ancient sacrificial platform, taking the shape of a cross.

The sacrificial platform was in the center.

On three sides of the sacrificial platform sat three extraordinarily beautiful women.

Zhou Yan knew these three women.

Not only did he know them, but he remembered these three women deeply.

Among them, Shennong Fairy Zhao Xiaoxiao, Kunlun Immortal Qin Ruyu, and Qin Se Fairy Yun Shiyin occupied three directions.

Zhou Yan noticed that Yun Shiyin, like Ji Wu, was a single person with an avatar inside, equivalent to one person possessing two people’s abilities.

The originally vacant direction was chosen by Fierce Sun Immortal Hong Yuqiao, who had already sat on that path and started practicing.

Once Zhou Yan entered, he was glanced at by the four women and then no longer paid attention to.

The four were fully focused on comprehending their cultivation, their aura expansive, and their origin extremely profound.

This level of strength was at the Nine Great Perfection of the Eternal Nine Rules Realm, far stronger in aura and power than Jiang Yuning and others.

Zhou Yan even felt that Qian Luoshui might not compare to any of these four.

This place was indeed extraordinarily powerful and abnormal.

Feeling helpless, Zhou Yan glanced at the sacrificial platform, thought for a moment, then flew up to it.

At that moment, the four women glanced at Zhou Yan with curiosity but still said nothing.

Feeling completely clueless about this place, Zhou Yan didn’t ask questions. Instead, he sat down on the sacrificial platform to contemplate his insights and simultaneously establish the form of the King Creation Immortal Principle.

After testing the stability and creating the Immortal Principle, Zhou Yan’s realm could be improved.

This enhancement in realm would further elevate Zhou Yan’s combat power and other aspects.

Thinking about the scenes on the Heavenly Road, Zhou Yan fused the evil spirit aura with the Creation Immortal Principle, recalling the Sword Body Dao of the Destruction Sword Body, and resonating with the ability of past Three-Eyed Clan members, he created a unique eye at the center of his brow.

This eye, condensed with evil spirit aura and Creation Immortal Principle, concealed the aura and creation of Zhou Yan’s sword-shaped Thunder Seal mark, forming a veil.

In such circumstances, it somewhat fit An Rufeng’s ability, as An Rufeng’s dual-eye ability was quite remarkable, though his unique talent was never truly revealed.

Zhou Yan considered this to better utilize and manage the unique power of the evil spirit.

The power of the evil spirit was strong, offering powerful protection and a very formidable endurance.

Such energy would not be missed by Zhou Yan.

As for whether it would affect, Zhou Yan always believed that energy itself has no distinction between good and evil. The distinction lies in the beings wielding and using it.

Utilizing this method, Zhou Yan initiated the Eye of Destruction, creating a source of evil spirit energy.

Thus, when the eye of the evil spirit manifested, Zhou Yan’s Nine Great Perfection of the Eternal Life Six Rules Realm reached its pinnacle, breaking through to the Eternal Life Seven Rules Realm.

The Seventh Rule, Zhou Yan directly achieved Eternal Immortality.

Eternity is the research and understanding of the essence of eternal life. It’s a rule of deduction and contemplation for the qualification of eternal life.

This rule, to comprehend the Eternal Immortality Principle, is not too difficult. With Zhou Yan’s current ability, if he truly wants to deduce and understand this immortality principle, he will progress quickly, reaching the Great Perfection of Nine Layers in at most a year.

However, for the King’s Immortal Principle of eternity, the difficulty is exceedingly great. It’s like creating the King’s Immortal Principle of eternal life, akin to creating the origin of life, with difficulty similar to allowing the Eternal Spirit to nurture descendants.

In this situation, Zhou Yan’s choice even relates to whether he can become a king in a short time.

Nevertheless, Zhou Yan did not hesitate. Even though comprehending the eternal rule of the Eternal Immortality Principle earlier might enable him to achieve kingship sooner, because of the foundation of the six major King’s Immortal Principles, if he doesn’t continue this foundation afterward, it would be equivalent to wasting the groundwork of these six major King’s Immortal Principles.

Achieving kingship does not look at the strongest King’s Immortal Principle, just like how much water a bucket can hold does not depend on the longest plank but on how short the shortest one is.

If all strengths exist, but the final plank is too short, it drags down the overall understanding.

Zhou Yan also doesn’t want the previous King’s Immortal Principles to be wasted, so he can only choose to continue creating the eternal rules of the King’s Immortal Principle without hesitation.

As such, Zhou Yan’s realm merely crossed one layer and had to stop there.

"Your talent remains as poor as ever. A million years of enlightenment, and you’ve only just crossed one layer, and merely brought together your talent at a point forming a talent like the Eye of Destruction of the Three-Eyed Clan... I really don’t know what you’re thinking."

After Zhou Yan finished his cultivation, Hong Yuqiao was already by his side, speaking in a tone filled with a flippant and sarcastic meaning.

Zhou Yan nodded casually, neither responding nor explaining anything.

"Hong Yuqiao, is this the person you said saved you? Also known as An Rufeng? It doesn’t seem like much."

Qin Ruyu looked at Zhou Yan, measuring him back and forth. After a while, she couldn’t help but laugh, joking.

"Indeed quite ordinary, but with some unique charm. For the Eternal Spirit, a charming life is indeed better than those with handsome appearances."

Yun Shiyin also couldn’t help but smile gently, saying.

Among them, only Zhao Xiaoxiao remained silent.

She glanced at Zhou Yan indifferently, then chose to ignore him completely.

"Second Layer Heaven, the Land of Heavenly Fire, holds even more challenges. We will likely experience fates worse than death, and the time might still be millions of years, possibly tens of millions or even longer."

"So, if nothing else, prepare, and then we will leave this Heavenly Tablet Land. We cannot stay here too long; otherwise, it will diminish our cultivation talent."

Zhao Xiaoxiao said coldly.

She no longer seemed like the weak, gentle girl from the past, having changed to a state almost devoid of emotion.

Zhou Yan completely did not understand these matters, so he didn’t express any opinions.

However, since the Four Great Immortals had not attacked him, Zhou Yan felt a bit more at ease.

If a fight really broke out, he wouldn’t have it easy in this place.

These people are the top-tier power beside the Lord of Ice and Snow. Each has terrifying combat power. Figures like Hong Yuqiao are no less talented and fortunate than Zhou Yan himself. If they really fought, the other party wielding abundant Evil Spirit talents, Zhou Yan might find it difficult to resist without displaying the King Dao.

Even if he performed the King Dao, the opposite side might still have undisclosed cards.

Zhou Yan briefly assessed, concluding that in case of combat, he would need to retreat to avoid being captured by them.

If they combined forces, it would likely be unsolvable.

Zhou Yan was neither underestimating the enemy nor denying himself, yet his judgment was extremely precise.

Thus, Zhou Yan appropriately distanced himself from these women.

Zhou Yan’s actions didn’t go unnoticed by Hong Yuqiao and the others, but no one cared since Zhou Yan was not of the same faction as the four of them, so it made sense to be cautious.

After Zhao Xiaoxiao finished speaking, she was the first to approach the altar and walk up to Zhou Yan.

Zhou Yan instinctively moved aside a bit, whereas Zhao Xiaoxiao merely cast a cold glance at Zhou Yan, with an icy indifference penetrating deep into his spirit.

After that one glance, she proceeded to the depths of the altar, performing a blood sacrifice of a drop of her Eternal Spirit’s origin essence blood.

Her Eternal Spirit’s origin also appeared as a seven- or eight-year-old girl, incredibly cute and innocent, with a chubby pink face, dressed in a light yellow princess dress derived from the Shennong Cauldron, adorably charming.

Nonetheless, after her Eternal Spirit appeared, neither Hong Yuqiao nor the others showed any surprise or emotion, as if this scene was entirely normal.

The Eternal Spirit spurted a mouthful of origin essence blood, causing a blood light to illuminate the altar, enveloping Zhao Xiaoxiao, who instantly vanished.

Following that, Qin Ruyu also stepped forward, activating her Eternal Spirit in the same manner.
