The Eternal Calamity of the Heaven-shading

Chapter 16 Ancient Mine and Immortal Tombs

"There will come a day."

Someone was whispering in the dark, staring at the departing figure of Yongjie Tianzun with unfriendly eyes.

Chen Wu didn’t know. Of course, even if he heard it, he would just smile indifferently. He still had to rush to the Taichu Ancient Mine.

Among the six supreme beings who were born before, three of them belonged to the Burial Land. Cang Xu came from the Xu Cave, Jing Xuan lived in the Immortal Tomb, and Kun Yu came from the Taichu Ancient Mine.

In this world, the Big Dipper of the Emperor Burial Star has not yet been refined, and the major forbidden areas are very far apart. Without the help of teleportation arrays, an ordinary cultivator may not be able to cross from one forbidden area to another in his entire life.

Of course, this was not a problem for Chen Wu. It was just a matter of a few steps. He also tacitly allowed those passers-by to follow the Golden Avenue. Otherwise, how could a group of ordinary saints keep up with the pace of the Heavenly Venerable.

"Eternal Tribulation Heavenly Lord has descended upon Taichu Star!"

The news was quickly spread to all parts of the universe.

This time, the people who followed the Golden Avenue with the intention of witnessing history did not dare to approach the star field where the Taichu Star was located. They could only watch Yongjie Tianzun walk in alone.

Because the Taichu Ancient Mine is located here, along with the nearby star fields, it is a restricted area.

Compared with the entire Taichu Star, the Taichu Ancient Mine is not large, but it cannot be ignored. It gushes out auspicious clouds as if it is breathing, and its ups and downs reveal ripples one after another, sweeping across many stars.

This may be the most ancient forbidden area, so old that it is frightening. It is said to have existed before the Immortal Ancient Era. It was filled up at the end of the Immortal Ancient Era, and then dug up again in the Chaotic Ancient Era. There is a big secret hidden inside.

Of course, the Taichu Ancient Mine in the Era of Shrouding the Sky cannot be compared with the Ancient Times of Chaos and the Ancient Times of Immortality. The Taichu Ancient Mine in its heyday was the habitat of the Immortal King.

As for the present, it is at most a waste mine, but for the cultivators in the human realm, it is still a supreme treasure land.

Chen Wu did not land directly on the Taichu Ancient Mine because there were more than twenty powerful forces blocking him. It was the supreme being of the Taichu Ancient Mine who took action. Compared with the Burial Ground and the Ruins Cave, there were much more supreme beings living in them. Falling directly from the top of their heads was a slap in their faces. This was a bottom line issue and there was no room for negotiation.

So, Chen Wu walked alone on Taichu Star and saw the ancient mine from afar. It was swallowing up the sun, moon and stars. For a moment, the sky was extremely brilliant. Countless big stars fell, leaving brilliant tails of light in the void, and then all sank into the cave.

As the distance gradually shortened, the Taichu Ancient Mine was also constantly changing. At first, it was shining with fairy light, then gradually it returned to its original state, and finally it turned into a black hole, as if warning him to stop.

Chen Wu slowly stopped at the edge of the ancient mine and stared into the dozens of pairs of eyes inside. Silver fairy light flickered, and a vast eternal calamity floated above his head.

A completely different aura of the highest order rose as Yongjie Tianzun fought single-handedly against dozens of supreme beings from the Taichu Ancient Mine!
If this news were to spread, it would be enough to shock the world, although the confrontation of the laws of the universe does not represent actual combat, and both sides have not used their full strength.

"What a great Eternal Tribulation Heavenly Venerable! The secret realm technique is indeed extremely mysterious and has the potential to become an immortal."

Deep in the ancient mine, someone was marveling at the discovery.

"I want four Taichu Life Stones." Chen Wu spoke directly and asked for them.

The Taichu Life Stone is a lucky stone created after the creation of the world, engraved with the secret of immortality. This thing is only produced in the Taichu Ancient Mine. Compared with the outside world, the Life Stones in the ancient mine are not rare, but the number is definitely not large, not to mention that there are so many Supremes to share.

Someone immediately denied it, saying, "Four pieces are too much. You can do whatever you want with Kunyu's body. He is not worth that much."

"The Taichu Ancient Mine is so big, with so many divine objects in it. It's ridiculous that Kunyu still needs to go to the outside world to reap all living beings." Chen Wu sneered.

"Eternal Tribulation Heavenly Lord, this is my Taichu Ancient Mine's business, you don't need to interfere. Four Taichu Life Stones are too many, I can give you two, and let's leave Kunyu's business for now."

"Add one more piece of fairy gold." Chen Wu bargained.

Strength is always the ultimate basis for negotiation. If Chen Wu did not have enough combat power to make them fearful, the supreme beings inside would have taken action long ago and would not have endured until now.

What's more, there is still a Heavenly Lord who has not appeared.

Deep inside the ancient mine, several divine thoughts were communicating. Someone was about to refuse without hesitation, but was stopped by another supreme being.

Finally, after some discussion, they reached a consensus.
"Can!"

Two millstone-sized Taichu Life Stones flew out. They were silver-white in color with fairy light flowing on their surfaces. If you looked closely, you would find fine lines. Those were the Taichu Life Lines, which contained the ultimate secret of "life".

In addition to this, there is another piece of fairy gold of the same size, with divine phoenix patterns on it. It is as red as phoenix blood, brilliant and glorious, and extremely beautiful. This is phoenix blood red gold.

"Eternal Tribulation Heavenly Lord, you can leave now. The Taichu Ancient Mine does not welcome you."

A cold voice came from inside the ancient mine, ordering everyone to leave.

Seeing that the goal was achieved, a smile appeared in Chen Wu's eyes, and then he turned and left.

When he walked out of Taichu Star, he met an unexpected person, a young man in green clothes, who was probably only about five hundred years old, very handsome, and had actually touched the edge of the Supreme (quasi-emperor).

"My name is Qingyu. I am honored to meet the Eternal Tribulation Heavenly Lord. I am here to invite you to have a chat on behalf of the Supreme Lords of the Immortal Tomb." Qingyu bowed calmly, with neither servility nor arrogance.
He is the messenger of the restricted area of the Immortal Tomb. It seems that his status in the Immortal Tomb is not low. He is not at all nervous because of the presence of the Heavenly Venerable.

"Immortal Tomb?"

Chen Wu looked at the young man in front of him and said, "I will go. You are very good."

The other restricted areas were afraid that he would come to collect the debt, but the Immortal Tomb was the only one that actually took the initiative to send an envoy to invite him.

"My father once said that the forbidden area is just a group of like-minded people who gather together to study the path to immortality. There is no coercion. Although Jingxuan Supreme came from the Immortal Tomb, his actions cannot fully represent everything. The Heavenly Venerable's achievements are comparable to those of the Creation. It is his fate to fall in the hands of the two of you. What can the Immortal Tomb blame for this?"

"Who is your father?"

"My father is the master of the Immortal Tomb." Qingyu replied calmly.

"So he is the descendant of the Supreme Being. No wonder he has such a magnanimous demeanor."

"Thank you for your praise, Heavenly Lord. My father once had high hopes for me, hoping that I could break the curse of becoming the Supreme within 500 years. However, Heavenly Lord achieved enlightenment against all odds at the age of less than 700. With such a great achievement, it is really hard for us to even dream of matching him." Qingyu replied, still speaking in the same gentle and soft tone as before.

"It's just luck. Walking fast doesn't mean anything. Let's go to the Immortal Tomb."

Chen Wu's eyes moved, and the golden avenue extended towards the center of the universe.

"My father is looking forward to meeting you, Tianzun, please."

As soon as Qingyu finished speaking, he saw the surrounding sea of stars moving rapidly backwards and turning into a blurry stream of light.

"Is this the extreme speed of the Heavenly Lord? He can travel across the heavens and universe in a single thought."

Surprised, Qingyu fell silent.

The conversation between the two was obscured, and the saints who were watching could only watch from afar as Yongjie Tianzun disappeared on the spot with a young Taoist priest.

"Eternal Tribulation Heavenly Venerable went to the Immortal Tomb, and it seems that the forbidden area took the initiative to invite him."

The news spread wider and wider.

……

Xianfen is a very mysterious place. It is said that immortals are buried here. It is also one of the forbidden areas where the largest number of supreme beings gather.

It is a common consensus in the world that the Immortal Tomb can be ranked alongside the Taichu Ancient Mine and the Kunlun Immortal Mountain. These three forbidden areas are the most powerful. Compared to the barrenness of the burial soil, they contain the most divine objects.

Under the guidance of Qingyu, the descendant of the master of the Immortal Tomb, Chen Wu quickly entered the Immortal Tomb.

After entering, I saw a desolate scene everywhere, with tombs everywhere. Each tomb was not very tall, but its imposingness was amazing.

Some are filled with gloomy air, some are filled with auspicious clouds rising into the sky, and there are also many living creatures moving around among the tombs. If they were placed outside, they would at least be able to rival saints, but here they are just the lowest level creatures.

Let's not talk about the vast amount of divine objects that would surprise even the Heavenly Master.
Along the way, Chen Wu has seen at least three immortal medicines, a laurel tree, a suspected apricot tree, and a smart little Qilin, which is the Qilin Immortal Medicine.

The immortal tomb is indeed extraordinary.

Chen Wu has always suspected whether the Immortal Tomb is the later Immortal Mausoleum, as the two are too similar. Changsheng Tianzun, one of the Nine Heavenly Lords in later generations, is suspected to be the founder of the Immortal Mausoleum. He was invited by the Emperor to be born in the late mythology, and briefly resided in the underworld. After the collapse of the Heavenly Palace, he returned to the Immortal Mausoleum...[Note 1]
From the immortal tomb to the immortal mausoleum, something must have happened in between, which was probably related to what Chen Wucao Yusheng were going to do.

now,

Dozens of supreme beings in the immortal tomb woke up, and they watched Chen Wu walk by with layer after layer of divine consciousness. No wonder he dared to display the elixir of immortality so openly without fear of being snatched away.

"Is this the Eternal Tribulation Heavenly Lord? He looks quite young."

"The secret realm cultivator is indeed powerful. Even Jing Xuan died at his hands."

"Heroes emerge young, and a new generation of supreme being has risen."

"I heard there's another one outside."

There was a supreme being who had just awakened and was communicating in secret.

　Note 1: The speculation that Changsheng Tianzun founded the Immortal Mausoleum is based on the original work. He is the master of the Immortal Mausoleum. It is also clearly stated that Changsheng Tianzun is the oldest surviving person, who almost spanned the mythological era. He must be at the forefront among the Nine Tianzuns.

　　Therefore, this article sets Changsheng Tianzun as the second of the Nine Tianzuns. After transcending the calamity, he returned to the immortal tomb and renamed it Xianling.
