At the same time, the Immortal Ancient Secret Realm shook, as if it was about to disintegrate at any moment. The huge crack in the void suddenly expanded several times over, making cracking sounds that were terrifying.

"Oh no! The Immortal Ancient City is about to crack open, and creatures from the outside world are about to invade!" someone shouted.

This sound was truly earth-shattering, and everyone felt as if they had been struck by lightning.

The indigenous people broke out in a cold sweat as the Xiangu cave cracked open, unsure whether it was a blessing or a curse.

The prodigies of those powerful forces beat their chests and stamped their feet, revealing their regret.

"What a pity, it's too late, we've already missed it." someone lamented.

If the Immortal Ancient Secret Realm were to crack open before the Gate of Light appeared, then the powerful members of their sect would surely be able to reach this place. At that time, the ownership of the ultimate great fortune of the Immortal Ancient Realm would not be something that young people could decide.

Unfortunately, the dust has settled, the final opening of the Immortal Ancient Arena has ended, and Shi Yi has become the ultimate victor.

On the arena, the four prodigies all sighed with regret, having missed their ultimate opportunity. No one could calm down; it was destined to be a bitter pill to swallow.

Until they discovered that the gate of light had not disappeared and was still there.

The Immortal was the first to move, using the Heavenly Phoenix Technique to rush towards the gate of light. Unexpectedly, he succeeded, and his figure disappeared from the arena.

Seeing this, the others immediately set off to follow. The ten-time champion strode like an emperor on a journey, stepping into the gate of light.

Shi Hao and Ning Chuan followed closely behind. Not only the four young supreme beings, but also the ancient freaks below the stage returned to the arena to try to enter the light gate. As the first person succeeded, the others rushed in one after another.

Of course, this portal has a threshold; one must demonstrate sufficiently strong vitality or combat power to enter.

Furthermore, their treatment differed from Shi Yi's. Shi Yi was the winner and was directly teleported to the destination after entering the portal, while the beings who entered later had to run forward along a passage constructed by laws.

Shi Hao, the Ten-Crown King, the Immortal, Ning Chuan, and a host of other ancient oddballs, without exception, all burned their magic power and consumed their life essence, rushing towards the end of the passage at top speed.

Everyone remained silent, wondering whether Shi Yi, who arrived first, would seize an unimaginable opportunity, or whether those who were a step behind would end up with nothing.

At this moment, Shi Yi had arrived at a mysterious place.

In the distance, all was pitch black, while nearby, a soft light flowed, swirling with spiritual energy that converged into a small stream. Countless petals drifted down, creating a colorful spectacle, and wisps of ethereal beauty spread out, making it incomparably holy.

He stood still, his eyes slightly closed, listening quietly. In a daze, he seemed to hear the sigh of a true immortal. In an instant, he seemed to have experienced thousands of lifetimes and witnessed the changing of the ages in the ancient immortal era, seeing many living beings and scenes of battle.

The heavens wept blood as the corpses of powerful warriors fell from the sky, crashing onto the earth and staining the vast land red.

This was the cruelty of the end of the Immortal Era. Immortal Kings were killed, and True Immortals perished in droves. All living beings entered the cycle of reincarnation, and an era ended and was buried.

Shi Yi sensed a sense of despair and tragedy; the broken marks seemed to be conveying a message to future generations.

"It's better to be ignorant than to repeat despair, living in a daze life after life, than to be tragic and desolate."

This is the emotion expressed by that shattered, broken mark in the Immortal Ancient Creation Land.

The next moment, all the wonders vanished. The celestial aura and flower petals were like a dream. All that remained in front of Shi Yi was a dark stone wall with some blurry carvings on it.

Shi Yi knew that this was a test left to future generations by the ancient sages. If the newcomers also felt despair and could not see any hope, they would gain nothing and would have to turn back.

He certainly wouldn't do that.

Shi Yi clenched his fist, and three thick streams of immortal energy swirled around it, enhancing the punch.

"Boom!"

With the support of the three immortal energies, his fist power was unparalleled. He punched the dark stone wall, and the wall trembled violently, as if acknowledging Shi Yi's strength, and a human-shaped entrance appeared.

At this moment, the feeling of despair and frustration intensified, but Shi Yi ignored it and walked straight over the wall of despair.

It was as if he had entered a vast universe, with many magnificent stars floating and sinking in the cosmos.

A stone staircase came into view, shrouded in chaotic energy, exuding a grand aura, leading to the end of eternity and the unknown.

Without hesitation, Shi Yi stepped onto the stone steps. At that moment, he was shaken. Walking on the stone steps felt like traversing through time and space, traveling through one great world after another.

Each step felt like ascending to a higher heaven.

And so he ascended to the Ninth Heaven, where a massive burial mound stood on the ninth level.

The dark red earth was barren, and the mounds of earth stood eerily quiet, making one hold their breath.

Shi Yi continued forward, passing through a passage and entering the depths of the burial mound.

This is a vast underground palace, located beneath the burial mound. As far as the eye can see, one jade coffin after another lies there, motionless.

These coffins were quite special; they emitted light in the dimly lit underground palace, exuding an aura of immortality. Some of the coffins were even transparent, allowing one to see the figures lying inside.

Shi Yi opened his double pupils and looked into the inside of these coffins. One after another, immortal corpses appeared in his eyes, all of them headless, with dazzling immortal blood flowing from their wounds.

He knew that these were the remains of true immortals from the Immortal Ancient Era. The reason they lost their heads was because they fell into darkness, and a dark primordial spirit was born inside their heads. After the heads were cut off, the bodies could still remain pure. However, these remains were all illusions.

Sure enough, when they looked again, the headless immortal's corpse had disappeared, transforming into a jade book and an ancient seed.

Without a doubt, the Jade Book is the legacy of these true immortals, and the Ancient Seed is the Dao Seed they fused with during their cultivation.

Shi Yi did not linger; his goal was to go deeper into the underground palace, where there was the inheritance of the Immortal King and the so-called ultimate great fortune of the ancient immortals.

Chapter 279 Perfect Ancient Seed

Shi Yi ventured deep into the imperial palace and finally reached the end of the underground palace.

Before him stood a magnificent altar, like an ancient mountain reaching to the heavens.

The altar is engraved with various patterns, from a mayfly to the vast universe, all living things, and even true immortals and immortal kings.

Ancient patterns, from the previous era, spanning the long river of time, simple and natural, permeated with the rhythm of the Great Way.

It is very tall; if you climb up, you can overlook the entire underground palace.

The so-called ultimate creation of the immortals is enshrined on the altar.

Beneath the altar lay several enormous ancient coffins, cast from special jade, shrouded in a hazy, ethereal aura. These coffins were many times larger and more imposing than the previous coffins of true immortals.

Shi Yi knew that this was the ancient coffin of the Immortal King, and inside lay many figures. However, in the blink of an eye, these figures disappeared and transformed into a jade Dao book and a Dao seed.

As he observed the coffins and the magnificent altar before him, a voice suddenly rang in his ears, ethereal and hazy, like the celestial music of the Great Dao, calling to him and resonating with him.

"Ok?"

Shi Yi was surprised, his eyes shining brightly in the dim void. He turned his head to look in one direction, where there was a giant coffin of a celestial king, and all the fluctuations and sounds came from inside.

Clearly, the inheritance within this giant coffin of the Immortal King was a perfect fit for him, and he was chosen directly.

As long as Shi Yi stops in front of the giant coffin and slightly comprehends the Dao within, he can take away the inheritance jade book and the incomparably precious Dao seed.

However, Shi Yi did not rush to seize the inheritance, because he knew that a jade box was also enshrined on the magnificent altar.

Its unique features, which distinguish it from the jade coffin below the altar, must explain why it was placed there. He naturally wouldn't miss it.

With this in mind, Shi Yi did not hesitate and climbed the towering altar.

Sure enough, a jade box came into view. It was extraordinary, enveloped in chaotic energy, and was the only object on the top of the entire altar.

Shi Yi walked straight over, grabbed the jade box, and the process went very smoothly without any obstacles. However, he knew that it wouldn't be that simple.

Soon, the jade box began to glow, and a voice suddenly rang out.

"Want to take it away? Let's see if you're qualified."

The next moment, beams of light rose from the altar, like celestial swords, while chaotic energy spread out, making the place even more mysterious.

Amidst the rising clouds and mist, a terrifying force swept in, attempting to refine Hua Yi.

He tried to move his feet, but they were firmly planted in place, and he could only endure the pain.

Shi Yi did not panic. He exerted all his strength to resist that force. Three thick streams of immortal energy surrounded his body, and the Divine Ring of the Cave Heaven and the Forbidden Sea of ​​Bitterness hung high above him, making him impervious to all magic.

"Buzz!"

The radiant light surged and rose, coalescing in the void to form a cauldron that pressed down upon Shi Yi's head.

"break!"

Shi Yi coldly shouted, and a beam of light burst forth from his Taiyin Double Pupil, capable of destroying everything.

"Crack!"

The cauldron shattered upon impact.

Then came a furnace and a cage, both of which were shattered by Shi Yi's double pupils opening the heavens.

"Crash!"

A loud rushing sound arose, and two great rivers suddenly appeared around the altar, the water of the moon and the essence of the sun, both rushing towards Shi Yi.

With all his might applied, he was attacked over a hundred times in a short moment. Even someone as strong as Shi Yi was struggling to withstand it. Fortunately, he held on and survived the onslaught without serious injury.

Before he could catch his breath, another chaotic hill fell from the sky, pressing Shi Yi down and making him bend over.

This thing is so heavy that it feels like carrying the eternal blue sky on your back.

"Crack!"

He heard the sound of his bones breaking, not just in one place, which was terrifying; his capillaries were also bursting open in patches.

It is unknown how much time passed, but Chaos Hill finally disappeared, and the pressure also vanished with the wind.

Shi Yi used the True Phoenix Treasure Technique to heal his injuries.

Immediately afterward, another object flew over and pressed down on Shi Yi's crown. This time it was a black World Stone. This was not the first time Shi Yi had seen this thing. Back in the lower realm, on the Sun God Tree, he had seen it and obtained a piece.

The World Stone was incredibly heavy, constantly releasing the power of the world's rules, making it difficult for Shi Yi to get up. Blood gushed from his body, making him look quite miserable.

Despite his best efforts to resist, he was still severely injured by the impact.

Moreover, countless immortal swords floated in the void, slashing towards his primordial spirit.

If it weren't for the countless trials and tribulations, Shi Yi's primordial spirit might have been reduced to ashes in an instant. This was a test prepared for those with three strands of immortal energy; a slight mistake could lead to certain death.

Even those with three strands of immortal energy might die, let alone those ancient freaks; they probably wouldn't even pass the first test.

As time passed, Shi Yi silently withstood the final wave of impact. His entire body and primordial spirit were covered in cracks, tattered and piled up in a heap. He almost died and his soul dissipated.

As the flames of rebirth ignited and roared, his figure reappeared, instantly returning to normal.

At this moment, all the tribulations disappeared, and Shi Yi successfully withstood the test. He could now take the jade box with him.

He tried to move his feet, and this time, there was no obstacle.

Shi Yi put away the jade box and walked down from the altar without stopping. He then stood in front of the giant jade coffin that had called him, closed his eyes slightly, and listened quietly to the supreme scriptures coming from the giant jade coffin.

The passage was muffled and indistinct, but it gave Shi Yi a general idea of ​​the direction of the text.

He used his Taiyin Double Pupil to continuously analyze the symbols and the sounds of the scriptures, deepening his connection with the jade book and the Dao seed in the jade coffin.

Gradually, a holy mist rose from Shi Yi's body, connecting with the jade coffin. The connection between them was gradually deepening, and it wouldn't be long before they could communicate and he would receive the inheritance.

At the critical moment, a group of uninvited guests barged in. It was Shi Hao and the Immortal who had rushed over from the portal.

They saw Shi Yi standing in front of a giant coffin before the altar, his body shrouded in immortal mist and emitting profound immortal sounds, as if he were comprehending some extraordinary method.

"The Great Dao Scripture?"

"The supreme treasure of the immortal abode!"

Without hesitation, the group immediately clenched their fists and charged forward, intending to interrupt Shi Yi's enlightenment process.

In their view, with so many giant coffins here, and Shi Yi arriving first, he must be after the best one.

"There are many opportunities here, you can seize them yourselves. There's no point in targeting me," Shi Yi said calmly without turning around.

Shi Hao and the others were slightly taken aback and stopped what they were doing.

In particular, the three of them—the Ten-Crown King, the Immortal, and Ning Chuan—felt a strange connection as soon as they entered this place. Each of them was connected to a giant coffin, which emitted a hazy Daoist sound, calling them to come closer.

The three sensed that the three giant coffins contained the most suitable scriptures for their cultivation, aligning with their path.

Only Shi Hao showed no reaction whatsoever. He looked around at the giant coffins, but they remained completely still and did not establish any connection with him.

As the other three found their own giant coffins and began to sense the Great Dao within them, Shi Hao frowned slightly, feeling somewhat resentful. Why was he chosen instead of the Immortal King's inheritance?

He looked toward the magnificent altar at the deepest part of the underground palace. Since no giant coffin had chosen him, he would climb the altar and see.

However, the altar was empty, with nothing on it. Shi Hao was not surprised by this scene. Even if there were good things on the altar, they must have ended up in Shi Yi's hands, since he was the first to arrive at this place of fortune.

Shi Hao stood atop the altar, overlooking the underground palace. He saw several beings who had cultivated immortal energy and arrived later. They had also received a share of the inheritance. Chang Gongyan, the chubby Cao Yusheng, and others had all obtained a fortuitous opportunity.

"Since they won't choose me, then I'll just go and steal it," Shi Hao muttered to himself, since many of these people were hostile beings anyway.

His first target was Ning Chuan, a creature who constantly spoke of the Sin Clan. Shi Hao had long disliked him, so he went straight for him and killed him.

Ning Chuan was furious and immediately started fighting with Shi Hao.
