Ancient Godly Monarch

Chapter 1014: Life and Death Unknown

Translator: Lordbluefire Editor: Lordbluefire

When the people of the Battle Sword Sect had just arrived in the immortal realms, they settled down in this small Worryfree City. For them, each day was a constant struggle for survival. It was naturally difficult for them to have connections to major powers like the Thousand Transformations Immortal Sect. Worryfree City was too small. It was a mere city from the Jiangling Country, one of the 81 countries of the Cloud Prefecture. Its people wouldn't even think about the Thousand Transformations Immortal Sect as that was something too far away for them.

Qin Wentian didn't know how to explain it as well. He couldn't divulge the secret of the Heavenly Talisman Realm, and strictly speaking, the Thousand Transformations Immortal Sect wasn't his real sect. There was only a connection between the Heavenly Talisman Realm and the Thousand Transformations Emperor Lord.

"You'll all know once you get there." Qin Wentian smiled. "Sis Lingshuang, the immortal sense I will leave on you can be activated at any time. However, it's merely a representation of my will and consciousness—it doesn't possess any attack power. I will know whatever you do though… will you mind?

Ye Lingshuang blushed slightly. She rolled her eyes at Qin Wentian, "Okay, but you are not allowed to see the things you shouldn't see."

"Mhm, definitely not." Qin Wentian nodded. This particular strand of immortal sense had no attack power and wouldn't last forever. He wanted to leave it on her as a means of communication, and if the situation in his particle world were to exceed his capabilities, he might need help from the Thousand Transformations Immortal Sect.

This was also the reason why Qin Wentian asked the Battle Sword Sect to head over to the Thousand Transformations Immortal Sect. From what he'd heard from Lou Bingyu, the situation in their particle world was extremely serious.

"No problem, just leave a strand of your immortal sense on me," said Ye Lingshuang. After which, Qin Wentian closed his eyes as immortal light flared from his immortal foundation, wrapping around Ye Lingshuang, seeping into her body before dissipating altogether. This was the first time Ye Lingshuang experienced such a strange sensation and she couldn't help but turn red. But she and Qin Wentian were foster siblings, and she didn't really mind it that much either.

Qin Wentian opened his eyes. With a wave of his hands, several immortal-ranked weapons appeared. He passed them to the old ancestor, "Old Ancestor, all of you should hold on to these immortal weapons."

"Okay." The old ancestor of the Battle Sword Sect didn't stand on ceremony and accepted all the weapons.

"Remember, hurry to the Jiangling Country's capital and look for the country's king. Get him to send you all to the Thousand Transformations Immortal Sect. Try not to cause trouble during the journey, you might encounter more situations like today's incident in the immortal realms." Qin Wentian glanced at the experts of the Battle Sword Sect as he clasped his hands. "I will return to our hometown first. Let's meet again in the Thousand Transformations Immortal Sect in the future. Farewell."

After speaking, he immediately soared up into the air as Purgatory followed closely from behind.

"Farewell!" Little Rascal waved his paws at Ye Lingshuang. After that, a raging wind gusted and he transformed into a golden-winged roc, shooting up into the sky with lightning speed. He appeared right below Qin Wentian and Purgatory, and they both mounted the roc.

"This…"

The people of the Battle Sword Sect started in surprise. Even Little Rascal had ascended to immortality?

Ye Lingshuang's beautiful eyes flashed as a radiant smile appeared on her face. "This brat… he became a dragon after stepping into the immortal realms."

"When one achieves the Dao, even chickens and dogs can ascend to the sky." The Plum Mountain Sword Sovereigness felt melancholy in her heart as she stared at the three silhouettes soaring up into the sky. She involuntarily cast a glance at her disciple Lou Bingyu. She suddenly felt that as a master, she might have been delaying Lou Bingyu's progress. If Lou Bingyu were to follow after a character like Qin Wentian, her accomplishments would undoubtedly be higher by now.

"Pack up, let's prepare to leave," said the old ancestor of the Battle Sword Sect. "That brat left behind his immortal sense on Lingshuang, so he must be extremely worried about our particle world. We'd best not delay. He might need reinforcements from the Thousand Transformations Immortal Sect."

"Roger!" Everyone nodded, they had a rough idea regarding Qin Wentian's intentions as well.

...

Qin Wentian soared into the air. Immortal-foundation experts were able to break through the bindings of the world, enter true space and head over to the layer where countless particle worlds were located.

Gradually, overwhelming law energy descended onto him. He could feel the shackles of the world's bindings restrict his movements. Little Rascal, who had transformed into a golden-winged roc, gave a roar as his golden wings flapped rapidly, and he rushed straight through the clouds. Their bodies flew higher and higher, and after some time had passed, Qin Wentian glanced downwards, and he could no longer tell which direction was up or down. It was the exact sensation he'd felt back when Li Mubai brought him to the immortal realms.

The vast immortal realms were so large that they had no boundaries. And as they flew higher and higher, the places they could see grew in number.

Finally, another sharp sound rang out as the golden-winged roc broke through the last layer of bindings. Instantly, the oppressive law energy vanished, and they appeared in the starry space where countless particles that were pinpoints of light floated before him. They looked to be extremely close, but in reality, they were an inconceivable distance away.

Many of the particles looked extremely tiny. However, each particle, no matter how small, represented a world.

"Little Rascal, can you sense it?" Qin Wentian asked.

"Mhm." Little Rascal nodded. Spreading his wings, he rapidly shuttled towards a specific direction. There were countless particle worlds, but the perception of a stellar martial cultivator was extremely sharp. This ability is further enhanced after ascending to immortality. They could sense the coordinates of the particle world they used to live in. Qin Wentian could sense it, and naturally, so could Little Rascal.

A human and two powerful demon immortals soared into space. Qin Wentian's eyes turned toward a certain direction. He could see figures shuttling through space as well. They should be experts heading to other particle words.

In fact, Qin Wentian was thinking that in this boundlessly vast space of stars, how many existences like the immortal realms would there be? Most probably, only a very rare few knew the answer.

Traveling through the stars would naturally cause one to feel tiny and inconsequential when compared to the majesty of the constellations in space.

After a very long time, a few figures broke through space, descending into the Royal Sacred Region's atmosphere. The golden-winged roc returned to his original form and jumped into Purgatory's embrace. Qin Wentian swept his gaze at the surroundings—they were in a city belonging to the Royal Sacred Region. The city was extremely populated and its citizens were all turning their attention to these figures who had just appeared in the sky. They could sense that these newcomers were extraordinary, but they had no idea who they were and where they had come from.

Qin Wentian landed on the ground. His immortal sense swept across hundreds of miles, and soon he knew where they were. They had actually arrived at the Grand Zhou Empire.

"We will head to the Royal Sacred City." Qin Wentian stepped out, directly vanishing from sight. The people who were staring at him suddenly froze as looks of surprise painted their faces. What rapid speed. Who was that young man exactly?

Although the Royal Sacred Region was extremely vast, it was too small in comparison to the immortal realms. Now that Qin Wentian had become an immortal, it didn't take him long to travel from Grand Zhou to the Royal Sacred City.

The Royal Sacred City was just as flourishing as before. Endless streams of people came and went. Back then, the Medicine Sovereign Valley had relocated to the Royal Sacred City, fighting against the then #1 sect, the Royal Sacred Sect, for the hegemony of this world. After that, Di Tian led several immortals to destroy the Royal Sacred Sect while the Medicine Sovereign Valley replaced it as the strongest power in this world.

By right, the Medicine Sovereign Valley should be as majestic as ever. But when Qin Wentian saw the scene before his eyes, he could scarcely believe it. It was a scene of shocking destruction; all the buildings had been demolished from fissures that had wrecked the earth. This holy ground which had once been incomparably glorious, had now become a dead zone where nobody dared to step into.

Qin Wentian's silhouette flickered as he stood atop a mountain peak. This was a place where he'd once lived with Qingcheng. But now, all the lush ancient trees were uprooted, turning this place into rubble.

Qin Wentian's countenance appeared calm, yet his heart was incomparably cold. The Medicine Sovereign Valley had been destroyed.

The only one with enough power to destroy the Medicine Sovereign Valley was undoubtedly an external power, foreign to the Royal Sacred Region.

Right now outside the valley, several powerful figures with cultivation bases at the Celestial Phenomenon Realm could be seen. People from afar were quiet out of fear as they stared at these experts.

"They're from the Star River Association. Who are those two that still dare to go into the Medicine Sovereign Valley? That's simply courting death."

"The Star River Association have already sent out a command to hunt down the remaining survivors of the Medicine Sovereign Valley. Those who dare to step into that location shall be killed with no mercy. Who would have thought that there were still people who dared to enter? They simply must be tired of living." The people from afar were discussing, their voices drifting into Qin Wentian's ears. Qin Wentian immediately headed straight outside of the Medicine Sovereign Valley, and stared at the ascendant-level experts.

The Star River Association destroyed the Medicine Sovereign Valley, and had even given out a command to hunt the remaining survivors?

"Qingcheng." Qin Wentian closed his eyes. However, right now, the group of ascendants had already surrounded them. They looked coldly at Qin Wentian and Purgatory. The man in the lead coldly demanded, "Give me a reason not to kill you all."

"Are you guys from the Star River Association?" Qin Wentian asked, his eyes still closed. The experts frowned, but before they could say anything, Qin Wentian asked again, "Where is the Medicine Sovereign now?"

"You are courting death," one of the experts said coldly. But at this very moment, Qin Wentian's eyes snapped open and a terrifying coldness gushed out. In an instant, a stifling pressure descended, and all the countenances of the ascendant-level experts drastically changed, becoming extremely unsightly to behold. They discovered that they had no way to move underneath the pressure. They could only tremble with fear as they asked, "Sir, who might you be?"

"I'm the one asking you a question." Qin Wentian stepped out. The moment his foot landed on the ground, a voice screamed. The heart of the person on the left was instantly crushed. An expression of terror was on his face as his body limply fell from the air.

The countenances of the others were as pale as paper. They heard Qin Wentian asking again, "Is the Medicine Sovereign still alive?"

"I don't know, the Medicine Sovereign fled for his life after being heavily injured. No one knows if he's dead or alive," a person mumbled after Qin Wentian stared at him. He didn't dare to say anything.

"How about his disciple, Mo Qingcheng?" Qin Wentian asked again.

"I have no idea." That person shook his head. "Senior, who are you exactly? Our Star River Association has already taken over this world. Even if you are an immortal foundation existence, you won't be able to win against us. Senior, you'd better not throw your life away."

He knew his life was in Qin Wentian's hands. And as he tried to dissuade Qin Wentian, he didn't forget to use the name of the Star River Association to pressure him.

"Within our ranks, experts are as common as clouds. Our Star River Association knew that the Medicine Sovereign Valley once led a troop of immortal foundation experts to destroy the Royal Sacred Sect. But even so, an army of immortal foundation experts would never be able to stand against our Star River Association. Nobody can violate the prestige of our Star River Association," that person continued coldly, his tone hardening.

Qin Wentian's entire being exuded coldness. He turned and stepped out. "Kill them."

As the sound of his voice faded, immortal might gushed forth from the young lady standing behind him. Numerous dazzling feathers flashed through the sky, slashing down with no mercy. The experts from the Star River Association trembled; they had no time to react before blood rained from the sky as their bodies fell and slammed onto the ground.
