Chapter 1616
Only, the youngsters on the immortal road fort were too arrogant, carrying indifferent expressions, as if they were high up above, overlooking every living being with apathy.
They saw Shi Hao, Sanzang, and the others. At first, they revealed shock, but soon afterwards, it changed to an ‘Only I am supreme’ confidence, a type of loftiness of not placing the creatures of the lower realms in their eyes.
Even though later on, they did their best to appear gentle, even revealing faint smiles, their previous true thoughts couldn’t be hidden, which was how much they looked down on outside creatures.
“Heh, things are interesting now.” Sanzang chuckled, only, it was a bit cold. It wasn’t revealed outwards, only, there were some emotional fluctuations that were picked up by Shi Hao.
Shenming was also like this, carrying a smile, but it was definitely not sincere.
They were Golden Undead Knights, yet they were actually looked down on here, their eyes even carrying such contempt, looking down on them. This made both of them sneer inwardly.
Regardless of whether it was Shenming or Sanzang, both of their statuses were special. Golden Undead Knights were extremely rare, related to Burial Kings. Together with the fact that they had entered Burial Abyss with Shi Hao, seeing Origin Ancient Artifact, obtaining that type of experience and encounter, they became even more extraordinary.
Right now, the youngsters actually looked down on them like this, as if they were looking at beggars, regarding themselves as just that important. This clearly made the depths of the two great Golden Undead Knights’ eyes become cold.
Shi Hao didn’t say anything, looking calmly at those people just like that.
On the city wall, there were also a few soldiers, covered in armor, hard to see what level they were at, but they were definitely powerful individuals. They held war lances, long blades, heavenly spears, and other weapons, all of them releasing terrifying killing intent.
Even if there was a fort in the way, with a barrier produced by symbols in between, it still passed through.
Those young men and women, in terms of status alone, they were definitely far superior to those soldiers. One of them was dressed in golden robes, wearing a golden crown, full of a heroic aura, looking like he was just twenty something years old. His gaze was like lightning, passing by Shi Hao and the others’ bodies one by one.
Behind him was a blazing golden sun that flickered with raging flames, as if it could ignite the heavens, impressive bearing intimidating.
Shi Hao suspected that this might be a Golden Crow, one who was superior to the species of the Nine Heavens, its bloodline several times richer than even the most pure-blooded species he had encountered so far!
Sure enough, when one looked carefully, a Golden Crow could vaguely be made out from the golden blazing sun behind his head!
This was an extremely terrifying and powerful youngster, body carrying immortal energy. Even though he wasn’t a true immortal, his bloodline was definitely related to them!
He was like a crown prince, possessing a type of dignified appearance, as well as a type of arrogance. When his eyes opened and closed, golden electrical radiance flickered about, fiery light overflowing.
There was a woman by his side, beautiful beyond belief. Her silver hair was like snow, soft and shining. Her wonderful figure was curvy, face an oval shape, spotlessly white like jade. Her red lips were bright colored, fine nose sticking out, eyes intelligent, actually having silver pupils.
Behind her was a sacred diagram that was like a halo, but also like a spirit offering diagram. A white peacock was faintly discernible within the divine ring.
Shi Hao suspected that this young lady was most likely from the Divine Peacock Clan, status extremely high!
Apart from this male and female, there were two other males and one more female, their statuses of similar level. Only, at this time, there was immortal mist that swept over, making their figures a bit blurry.
“So these are Immortal Domain’s youngsters? They really are quite scary, cultivations terrifying.” Shenming said.
Shi Hao felt like she didn’t want to give praise, but those youngsters’ accomplishments really were terrifying, this was fact.
“It’s actually Lightning Spirits, so many of them!”
A voice sounded from the giant city gate tower, carrying surprise. When those youngsters noticed the Lightning Spirits and their numbers, their expressions changed, no longer that calm.
The Lightning Spirits gathered from all directions, when several hundred of them stood up, now together, it really was too eye-catching.
This type of creature was extremely rarely seen. For so many of them to gather together really was too uncommon. At the very least, this was the case in the world beyond, which was why the youngsters on the city gate were all moved.
Jiu jiu...
The Lightning Spirits released strange noises, requesting for the opening of the gates. Their bodies were all tense, releasing dazzling divine lightning radiance from their entire bodies.
“Interesting, so many Lightning Spirits appeared at once. Was it you all who activated the city gate just now?” That golden-robed male spoke up, the great sun behind his head shining.
His voice was extremely grand, shaking up this place, but the words were too archaic, impossible to understand. The reason why they could understand his intentions was because his divine will spread out.
Immortal Domain’s gate couldn’t be activated, this was how it was for a larger half of a great era, no one able to move it.
Yet today, this gate shone, becoming almost transparent, completely an exception. Otherwise, no creatures would ever appear here.
This was precisely the reason why Sanzang and Shenming were alarmed. Today was too strange.
Open the city gates!
This was what the Lightning Spirits were asking for. Their language was quite unique, the divine will fluctuations intense, expressing their request extremely clearly.
“You think we are going to open up just because you all tell us to? What kind of place do you treat this place as? Also, those mortals over there, do you all also want to enter Immortal Domain?” The prince-like golden-robed male asked coldly.
“We have yearned for Immortal Domain for a long time, greatly desiring to enter.” Sanzang said. It was unknown if this was his true intentions or insincere, speaking like this.
“Haha...” On the city gate tower, another young man laughed loudly. His violet-gold armor appeared, carrying dense immortal energy, figure tall and straight, long hair flying about.
It was a bit blurry where he stood, but a wave of terrifying pressure could still be felt. This person was so young, yet his blood energy was too vigorous, exceeding normal reasoning!
“Immortal Domain has been closed, the connection between the two worlds severed, this isn’t a place you all should have come to. Dragons have dragon nests, ants have ant caves, so know your place and remain in your lower realms, stay where you all show be. Stop holding onto unrealistic delusions!” The purple-robed young man said.
He stood on top, overlooking the area below, speaking with an extremely cold voice. The meaning of the so-called ants had ant caves was just too obvious, an analogy for where Sanzang, Shi Hao, and the others should stay.
“Are immortals that strong? Is Immortal Domain the highest pure land?” Sanzang laughed, a bit cold, and also a bit cruel, eyes deep and chilly.
“What are you trying to say?” On the city gate tower, the purple-robed young man asked coldly.
Even the Golden Crow, White Peacock, and others focused their attention on Sanzang.
Shi Hao stopped him to avoid him saying anything too sharp, because he had things to ask of Immortal Domain. Being able to find this place really was unexpected, he really wanted to ask for help.
Shi Hao cupped his fists, extremely sincere, informing them of his identity, that he came from Desolate Border.
He spoke things as they were. The other side came knocking on their doors again, bloodiness about to descend onto the Nine Heavens Ten Earths once more, the great earth about to be covered in flames. The people were in a terrible situation, so he wanted to ask Immortal Domain to take action, stop the other side’s army from crossing over!
“Heh, they didn’t break through yet, right? You can go back, these are things we already understand.” The golden-robed male said.
He had a smile on his face. It was extremely half-hearted, not looking like he cared that much at all.
This immediately made Shi Hao’s mind sink. Ever since they met, the individuals on the gateway were extremely arrogant, looking at them like dragons down on ants.
Even though the youngsters on the gate tower were also smiling, moreover, even concealing their expressions a bit, anyone could sense the deep contempt, not treating the creatures of the Nine Heavens Ten Earths as anyone important at all.
This was completely different from what Shi Hao originally thought!
So these were the reinforcements Imperial Pass’ cultivators were hoping for? The other side didn’t care much about those outside at all!
This was especially the case when Shi Hao thought back to Immortal Ancient Great Era’s final battle. When Imperial Pass was broken through, the creatures of all clans almost eradicated, Immortal Domain’s gates still didn’t open.
In the end, there were people who took action, but at that time, the Nine Heavens Ten Earths were already destroyed, life practically completely eradicated, only then did they appear, coming too late!
“You can go back, we have our own considerations, we will make our move when we should. We are aware of everything.” The golden-robed youngster impatiently waved his hand. That type of expression, that type of attitude were too casual, an expression of disgust on his face.
Right now, Shi Hao’s expression became cold, his eyes deep. He didn’t say anything anymore. Previously, he still carried hope, but it was now this result. These were the so-called reinforcements Imperial Pass was waiting for?
If not for holding himself back, Shi Hao really wanted to slaughter his way up the gate tower!
Then, the golden-robed young man looked towards the Lightning Spirits, saying, “Also, you all, even though you all are special, are Lightning Spirits, you’ve all sunken to a ruined and corrupted world, so you cannot return.”
“You all even brought back a dead person. Do you all want him to be buried in Immortal Domain? This is even more laughable! Just go back where you all came from!” The golden-robed male spoke, waving his hand, full of loathing, as if he was chasing away flies.
The Lightning Spirits were angered. Their tempers were quite great, extremely direct. They all got up, and then like divine arrows, were about to rush towards the city wall.
“I am warning you all! If you dare attack Immortal Domain’s gates, all of you will be slaughtered without exception!” That purple-robed male spoke, voice cold.
The Lightning Spirits’ scales unfolded, dragon patterns appearing, all of them infuriated, lightning surging, absolutely deafening.
“Do you all want to be annihilated?” The golden-robed male walked up, voice cold.
The Lightning Spirits didn’t act too rashly, withdrawing to the woven mat, raising that person up, protecting him at the center.
“They activated the city gate, so they definitely have some keepsakes. We should take a careful look, perhaps they truly can enter the city.” At this time, the silver-haired exceptional beauty spoke up. Behind her, magical force condensed into resplendent brilliance, a white peacock faintly visible.
“Ou la...” The Lightning Spirits uttered, as if they were making a sacrifice, releasing a grand sound, carrying great sadness.
At this time, the chest of the one on the woven mat shone. His supreme treasure appeared once more, but it was still hard to see clearly. It flew out from the blood-soaked tattered battle armor, rushing towards the stone gate.
“Wait, that is...” The silver-haired woman cried out in alarm.
Hong!
The supreme treasure smashed into the stone gate, releasing blinding symbols.
“Open the city gate!” Right at this time, a shout sounded from the city, the voice extremely aged.
Regardless of whether it was the stone gates or the wall, they were both sparkling and translucent, revealing the scene behind.
That wasn’t a city, within it endless rivers and mountains. Immortal mist pervaded the air, the great earth boundless, mountains and valleys majestic, impossible to see its limits!
As expected, this was a great world, the Immortal Domain. It was who knew how many times greater than the Nine Heavens Ten Earths!
The youngsters on the fort were all shocked. At the same time, the stone gates opened, opened up by someone.
The Lightning Spirits raised the one on the woven mat, releasing sobs of grief as they entered Immortal Domain.
Sanzang’s pupils rapidly contracted, inwardly trembling. Immortal Domain’s gates couldn’t be opened at all, so why did they make an exception for a corpse? This was inconceivable!
It was clear that that person had a tremendous past!
“Are we going in?” Shenming said, asking Shi Hao and Sanzang.
As for the Kun Fry, it had long mixed with the Lightning Spirits, entering, not being stopped.
Shi Hao took steps, walking forward. The two Golden Undead Knights also followed!
“Stop!” The golden-robed youngster shouted, stopping them.
Then, those youngsters appeared, stopping them.
“They can enter, you all cannot!” The golden-robed male said with a cold voice.
