Extreme Almightiest Young Master

Chapter 1415 - 1413: So that’s how it is...

When everyone heard Su Zhong say this, they all breathed a sigh of relief. Three days wasn’t long; it would pass in the blink of an eye. However, they all started contemplating ways to open one of the pill furnaces, as the elixirs inside were incredibly valuable. If they could open even one, their trip to the Heavenly Immortal Mansion Ruins would be immensely rewarding.

Compared to Su Zhong’s side, the Hidden World cultivators with Chen Qing chose to give up after just one day. They believed that this was intentionally done by the Yuanxu Heavenly Immortal. Once these valuable cultivation techniques and other books were released, they would undoubtedly have a massive impact on the Cultivation World outside. Thus, the Yuanxu Heavenly Immortal never intended for these to be taken by anyone, perhaps only those who had received his legacy could take these books.

After leaving the Wanjuan Pavilion, they arrived at a large hall nearby. The plaque above the door read "Pill Cultivation Palace," which immediately excited everyone. From the name alone, they knew it must have something to do with elixirs. With this in mind, they rushed into the hall.

Inside this grand hall was an imposing ink-colored pill furnace standing several feet tall, appearing ancient and elegant, exuding a faint black glow—a clear indication it was not an ordinary item. The walls around the hall were lined with shelves, stocked with bottles and jars, but nothing else. Everyone immediately understood this was a place for alchemy, not for storing elixirs!

Seeing this scene, no one could remain calm. They rushed madly towards the shelves on the walls to search through them. To their delight, there were no energy shields on these shelves, so anyone could take the items on them.

Everyone went crazy with delight. After all, this was where the Yuanxu Heavenly Immortal did alchemy. Even if they couldn’t find any finished elixirs, obtaining some alchemical materials would be enough to make them happy. So everyone spread out, relying on luck to find any remaining alchemy ingredients on the shelves.

"Wow, look what I found, Jade Marrow, real Jade Marrow!"

"Heavens, Three Spirit Five Common Leaves!"

"This... This is the top-grade Myriad Years Lotus Dew!"

...

Exclamations of surprise rang out as the materials they found left them all in a daze. They couldn’t believe that the remaining alchemical materials from the Yuanxu Heavenly Immortal here were all high-grade. The parts they recognized were only a small portion, yet even this small portion consisted of legendary items in the outside world. It left them elated and at a loss for what to do.

Wasting no time thinking about other things, everyone started searching frantically...

In the blink of an eye, they spent several two-hour periods combing through all the shelves in the hall. Each person gathered quite a harvest. Although most of the bottles and jars on the shelves were already empty, the mere remnants were enough to satisfy Chen Qing and his companions. After securing their rare materials, Chen Qing led the group towards another grand hall.

Meanwhile, Xia Guangze and others emerged from Jingyang Palace—not because they wanted to leave, but because the peculiar lamp had stopped emitting golden light, making cultivation inside meaningless. Although they had considered taking the lamp, they failed. Even Xia Guangze and other Human Immortal Realm experts couldn’t approach within three feet of the lamp, prompting them to abandon their cultivation plans.

After leaving Jingyang Palace, they headed towards another grand hall. This hall seemed significantly larger than the others, and the plaque above the door read "Myriad Beasts Garden," which left everyone puzzled, wondering what this Myriad Beasts Garden actually was.

With curiosity, they pushed open the hall’s massive doors, and the scene inside stunned them. The hall appeared to be several miles in circumference, undoubtedly containing a formation resembling a small world. But that wasn’t the main point; the focus was on this space filled with countless Demon Beast specimens. Each Demon Beast was meticulously preserved, and if not for careful observation, one might think they were still alive.

With anxious hearts, they stepped into the hall and began exploring.

As they approached the first Demon Beast specimen, they saw that it wasn’t very large, only about ten feet long. It had the appearance of a giant bear, but its fur was an eerie blue, and its eyes were even more bizarre, blood-red in color. The bear’s paws had claws that seemed like they were made of steel, still gleaming coldly. No one had ever heard of such a Demon Beast.

"Look over there!"

Everyone was drawn to this Demon Beast, curious about what it was. Leng Hao suddenly noticed a tag hanging from the beast not far away, so they all went over to see. Inscribed on the tag was: Blue Blood Ice Bear, mid-level Demon King, masters Freezing Breath, primarily consumes Ice Spirit Jade, of violent nature, slain in the Ice Barrens at five years old.

The words on the tag made everyone gasp. They all knew the strength of a mid-level Demon King, roughly equivalent to a late-stage Divine Change Realm cultivator. Yet the Yuanxu Heavenly Immortal managed to slay it at the age of five, an indication of his god-like strength, and it was so exaggerated that no one could believe it.

With hearts full of awe, the group followed the path inward, becoming more astonished the further they went. They saw one Demon Beast after another, each with a placard detailing its origins, allowing them to understand what these unfamiliar creatures were. Many were existences from legends, and they never expected to encounter real specimens here.

After making a round and arriving beside the last Demon Beast, they looked at this creature that seemed like the mythical Giant Dragon. They were utterly stunned; no one had imagined that dragons truly existed in this world. They thought, how could this be possible, that such Divine Beasts as dragons really exist in this world...

The Five Elements Jade Dragon, a junior Demon Saint, ranked ninth among the top ten Divine Beasts, was encountered at Five Elements Jade Peak Mountain at the age of over 700 years. After battling for more than three years, it was subdued, and later died in battle with the Blue Underworld Heavenly Immortal. To commemorate it, its physical body was sealed here as a tribute.

Reading the placard in front of them, waves of shock surged within everyone’s hearts. Only now did they realize what the previous world was truly like, beyond their imagination, where even real Divine Beasts had been subdued by the Yuanxu Heavenly Immortal. This was simply incredible!

With overwhelming amazement, the group stayed only briefly before leaving, needing to explore other places. They couldn’t continue to waste time here, but what they’d seen was enough to provide conversation fodder for the future...

Outside, while everyone was treasure hunting, Wang Batian, holding a special Jade Medallion, entered an Underground Palace. Before him, several rays of light in midair locked onto a sword. About three feet and seven inches long, its hilt emitted a chilling light like white bone, while the blade was jet black, making the whole sword appear extraordinarily eerie.

"With my ancestors above, unworthy descendant Wang Batian can finally retrieve the ancestral sacred artifact. Once I obtain the Yuanxu Heavenly Immortal’s legacy and find the remains of the Yuanxu Heavenly Immortal, I shall crush them to pieces to avenge the past!"

Staring at the eerie sword, Wang Batian spoke with overwhelming excitement. As the direct descendant of the Blue Underworld Heavenly Immortal, his entire clan had awaited this day for countless generations. Only in his generation had the Yuanxu Heavenly Immortal’s ruins reappeared, giving him this chance to reclaim the ancestral Divine Weapon.

After speaking, he raised his right hand, black Gang Qi swirling. Instantly, a drop of blood flew from his fingertip, shooting toward the sealed, eerie, black longsword in midair. As the blood smoothly landed on the blade, an unbelievable scene unfolded.

The black longsword began to emit black light, opposing the surrounding lights. Within a brief moment, it shattered those lights, then flew directly in front of Wang Batian, suspending in the air.

Wang Batian wasn’t in a hurry to fetch the sword; instead, he knelt on the ground to bow. After his bows, he stood up, grasping the bone-like hilt with his right hand.

Immediately, Wang Batian’s entire body trembled as if electrocuted, and then he fainted. What no one could see was that the eerie black longsword began to emit countless black lights, merging with Wang Batian...

...

In the blink of an eye, several days had passed. On the plaza, Lin Feng remained like a statue, while the boy on the screen wall had grown into a young man, treading the void and galloping across the clouds for ten thousand miles, with the mountains and rivers below stretching majestically.

Lin Feng had become completely absorbed by the growth trajectory of the Yuanxu Heavenly Immortal. He vaguely sensed something special, something that could only be understood but not expressed. He hadn’t fully grasped it yet, so at that moment, Lin Feng was entirely focused on capturing that insight.

Yes, it’s this insight!

Staring at the Yuanxu Heavenly Immortal on the screen wall, Lin Feng suddenly had a flash of inspiration. He realized a problem: in every stage of growth, the spells used by the Yuanxu Heavenly Immortal were different. As time progressed, these spells continued to change. In other words, the Yuanxu Heavenly Immortal’s cultivation spells weren’t pre-existing but were self-created from the start, just like his own!

So that’s what it was!

In his mind, scenes replayed continuously. Even his past life on the island resurfaced in his thoughts. These fragments intertwined, allowing Lin Feng to finally grasp that particular insight, immersing him deeply, all else around him forgotten.

At this moment, Lin Feng seemed to be wandering the Four Seas, completely immersed in the world painted in his mind. Meanwhile, his body underwent another transformation. The Gang Qi, which had transformed into human form and battled, now dissipated completely, condensing everything around Lin Feng. From a distance, Lin Feng seemed to be within a massive piece of Seven-Colored Profound Ice, appearing extraordinarily mysterious...
