Young master, why not become a corpse immortal?

Chapter 438 Immortal Arrival
Lin Jiang felt an indescribable drowsiness flowing through his mind.

He was enveloped in an extremely comfortable warmth, which both held his body and held his thoughts still.

It looks just like a blanket with an electric blanket plugged in on a winter's day.

And so, a faint sense of drowsiness flowed through the depths of his mind, making him unable to resist immersing himself in this warmth.

Just as Lin Jiang was drifting off to sleep, a woman's voice suddenly rang in his ear.

Can you hear my voice?

The voice sounded like a woman's, yet it seemed to come from a very distant place.

Lin Jiang didn't want to open his eyes for a moment, but the sound kept echoing in his ears like a machine gun.

"Wake up?"

"..."

Lin Jiang suddenly opened his eyes.

The warmth around him gradually dissipated, replaced by an indescribable feeling of swelling.

Immediately lower your head and look inward, and you will find that your inner palace is already full.

The once pitch-black inner palace had become as bright as day; a black mist shimmered with pure and dazzling white light in the sky.

The shimmering light was so dazzling that Lin Jiang could barely see anything else around him.

He immediately noticed that the little golden figures were desperately trying to close the door to the inner vision space, but the flow of Qi into his body was too great, like a surging river, even shattering the doorway.

These little golden figures were scattered and broken, some of them being swept directly into the city by this massive flow of energy, where they spun around endlessly.

The city of Dafang has been submerged by the Qi Sea, leaving only a few high-rise buildings with their roofs partially visible.

All the Qi in the sea eventually flows into the black beach not far away; the black beach silently accepts everything, absorbing all the flowing liquid into itself, remaining completely still.

Lin Jiang instinctively felt that something was wrong with his current state.

His meridians had been stretched slightly at this point, and the bones throughout his body were crackling continuously. The wounds that the mist had previously cut into his body were oozing Qi that had not been fully absorbed, but it was then flowing back into his body in a swirling motion.

This causes the wounds to expand further, with the skin and flesh being torn and destroyed repeatedly, only to regenerate again.

If things continue like this, he doesn't know if the Black Sea will be able to fill up; he himself might be squeezed to bursting by this thing.

Lin Jiang immediately exerted his strength, trying to pull himself up from the spot, but he soon realized that his body was firmly bound by the Qi and he could not move at all.

What should I do?
Lin Jiang frowned slightly.

What should I do next?
How can I squeeze myself out of this situation?

As Lin Jiang was pondering, he suddenly felt a strong sense of being watched coming from a great distance.

That seems to be...

In the sky!

Although his physical body was still unable to move, his mind could still forcefully look upwards.

In that instant, perhaps due to the immense amplification of his Qi, Lin Jiang's gaze passed directly over the sealed dome, over that secluded immortal mountain, and saw the blue sky and white clouds outside.

As the perspective leaps even higher, the pure blue slowly disappears, turning into a deep black.

After a moment of silence, everything before Lin Jiang's eyes suddenly became dazzling.

Seven-colored stars form an ocean, crisscrossing the entire sky, accompanied by waves surging from the darkness.

His gaze had already fallen upon the Boundary Sea, where he saw a vast expanse of dazzling stars.

But this gaze has not yet ceased.

Expand your horizons and deepen your vision.

Lin Jiang saw a void among the stars.

The empty space was completely devoid of anything, as clean as pure darkness.

The moment Lin Jiang fixed his gaze on that direction...

He heard a sobbing sound beside him.

That was a mournful cry.

Lin Jiang could sense that this was a cry of grief based purely on instinct, like a child whose food had been taken away and whose body had been cut by a knife.

Any living being, when faced with suffering, will utter such a lament.

This is the soul of an immortal.

The instant Lin Jiang turned his gaze in that direction, he suddenly felt that the void over there seemed to have sensed his gaze as well.

The mournful cries from the void vanished in an instant.

Immediately afterwards, as if two people were gazing at each other across the vast expanse of stars, Lin Jiang and this void formed a certain connection.

At that very moment, Lin Jiang sensed something different from what he perceived from that empty body.

That is……

joy!

A unique joy that comes from the heart and is hard to describe!

It's like a thirsty person finding water, or a dying person finding medicine.

Immediately afterwards, Lin Jiang felt as if something was descending directly into the depths of his consciousness from that extremely long distance.

These thoughts flowed incredibly fast, arriving almost instantly within the surging Qi. Lin Jiang noticed that the Qi emanating from his palace had changed from its original pure milky white to a pale gold, and that the essence of this Qi seemed to have undergone some kind of transformation.

Some memories, techniques, methods, and even consciousness appeared out of thin air in his mind.

And outside that day,
The originally peaceful celestial phenomena gradually began to change.

……

Gong Xuan lifted the curtain of the carriage and peeked out to see what was happening outside.

They were in a pitch-black forest, with only a few stars hanging in the sky above, barely providing them with any light.

The entire team strictly adhered to the only dirt road in the middle of the forest, and no one dared to leave this road easily.

This is the law of the forest: once you stray from the main road and enter the forest, there is no way to return.

No one can escape the constraints of this law.

In front of the forest, amidst the dense branches, stands a tree that looks quite unusual.

The tree was much thicker than the others, and there was a faint glow behind it.

Gong Xuan watched as their carriage circled the tree, and when they turned around again, they found themselves in a vast desert under the blazing sun.

Gongxuan saw several cities situated at the edge of the horizon.

The entire city was partially obscured by the sandstorm, as if the scenery here had been draped in a thin veil.

This is the divine city.

They have been on the road for three days since they set off.

In just three days, they covered a distance that would normally take a year for a caravan.

This journey was not without its sacrifices. One of the horses in the rear supply corps got spooked and ran into the forest with a box of supplies. A soldier on duty tried to salvage the supplies, but in doing so, he accidentally stepped on half an inch of soil outside the designated route.

He vanished from the spot as if he had disappeared into thin air.

It was as if this person had never existed.

There are always some places in this world that even someone as skilled as Gong Xuan, who has reached the Star Point realm, cannot see or understand clearly.

Fortunately, apart from the young man, no one else was injured.

After arriving here, they were still three days' journey from the nearby Blue Mountain.

This is the maximum speed they can achieve.

It's almost impossible to go any faster.

Zhao Liulang, inside the carriage, glanced at the army outside. After a moment's thought, he ultimately decided not to let the army continue its journey.

"Let's take a short rest before continuing our march."

Once they arrived in this region, besides facing this desolate Gobi Desert, the greater threat they would face was the people from the Dust Kingdom.

The Emperor of Daxing led his elite troops directly to this place, which could be considered a serious military offense from any perspective.

The probability of a conflict arising between the two sides is not low.

Zhao Liulang was naturally not afraid of the people from the Dust Kingdom. He could easily suppress the Dust Kingdom in terms of both his methods and his cultivation.

However, if he really forced the other party into a desperate situation, causing them to set up a forceful delaying tactic, that would be something Zhao Liulang absolutely did not want to see.

The surrounding troops naturally obeyed their emperor's orders and began to rest in place.

At this moment, Zhao Liulang was also leaning back on the bench. He let out a long sigh and closed his eyes to rest.

Gong Xuan looked at the other person and could tell that Zhao Liulang was quite anxious at the moment.

Actually, he was the same.

Perhaps I should offer the other person some words of comfort?
Considering Zhao Liulang's identity, Gong Xuan swallowed all his words.

On the way, Zhao Liulang had already told Gongxuan about his affair with Lin Jiang.

After hearing the whole story, Gong Xuan was dumbfounded and quite speechless.

If Zhao Liulang hadn't repeatedly stated that he wasn't joking, Gong Xuan would probably have really thought that Zhao Liulang was just making fun of him out of boredom.

The experience was so bizarre that Gong Xuan felt anyone who heard it would be stunned for a moment.

The army had already begun preparing food. First, the sorcerers placed warning talismans nearby and then used the altar to eliminate the smoke trails. In this way, they could ensure that their troops would not be discovered by people in the distance to the greatest extent possible.

They brought only the finest Qiankun bags, which contained a lot of fresh food.

Most cultivators who have not yet reached the Star Point stage are still bound by their desire for food and drink, and if possible, they would definitely prefer to eat fresh food.

However, just as the cooks distributed the food to each soldier, before they could even take a few bites, something suddenly changed in the sky not far away.

Everyone instinctively looked in that direction.

In the far distance, amidst those dense clouds...

The once clear sky suddenly turned pitch black.

When they finally reached the distant horizon, the sky turned as dark as night.

Stars flowed through it, and colorful light shone in the sky.

And at the very center of it all...

A huge void is slowly emerging.
