Chapter 752: Chapter 332: Ancient Gods’ Body, Art of Transforming Thoughts

Black Flame Profound Immortal fled to the north, and half a month later, he stopped at the edge of the endless void and sat cross-legged, no longer speaking.

One of the two True Immortals behind him hesitated for a moment and asked:

“Elder, is Linghua Immortal Monarch really coming to pick us up himself?”

“Why go through so much trouble when we can just send them directly with the coordinates? Would that not be more convenient for the Immortal Monarch?”

The other True Immortal did not speak, but his faint silver eyes looked into the boundless void, filled with speculation. Clearly, he had no shortage of doubts either.

Black Flame Profound Immortal did not turn his head, still calmly looking at the endless void in front of him.

“According to legend, in the ancient period before the ancient era, there were only three races between heaven and earth.”

“Gods, Immortals, and Ancient Evils.”

“These three races, known as Ancient Gods, Ancient Immortals, and Ancient Evils, existed since a time even older than the ancient era.”

“However, the ancient era collapsed, the Ancient Gods perished, and the Nine Realms formed, marking the first epoch of the ancient era, which lasts to this day.”

“The cause of the Ancient Gods’ demise lies within the endless void.”

“I guess Linghua Immortal Monarch must have found the relics of the Ancient Gods, which is why he keeps it so secret. This is a heavenly Immortal Affinity for him. He might be able to decipher the mystery of Daluo and ascend to the position of Immortal Venerate.”

“All these things are too high-level for me to even comprehend, so I can only guess and dare not probe.”

“Let’s wait and see.”

After saying this, Black Flame Profound Immortal spoke no more. Instead, he closed his eyes, sat cross-legged in the void, and his breath rapidly dropped until it became as faint as if he were a stone.

Behind him, the two True Immortals had different expressions, and each had their own thoughts. Seeing Black Flame’s change in breath, they knew it was not appropriate to ask more questions and sat down in silence at the edge of the void.

Three days later, Black Flame Profound Immortal suddenly opened his eyes and stood up. The two True Immortals behind him sensed it and stood up as well.

As the trio stood up, a figure appeared from the depths of the endless void, crossing it within three breaths, and standing in front of Black Flame Profound Immortal.

He was an elderly cultivator with an elusive aura, white hair coiled up, and long eyebrows that reached his chest. In his hand, he held an ordinary-looking wooden dragon cane.

However, the three Immortals did not dare to neglect him and bowed their heads respectfully, for the visitor was none other than Linghua Immortal Monarch.

“Greetings, Immortal Monarch.”

Linghua Immortal Monarch nodded, looked directly at Black Flame Profound Immortal, who immediately reacted and drew a phantom light group from his forehead with his fingertip.

Upon close inspection, one could see that within this light group was a not-so-small mountain range where more than 3,000 cultivators were scattered, some sitting cross-legged, others conversing.

This was a corner of Black Flame Profound Immortal’s Immortal Spirit Realm.

Linghua Immortal Monarch gently wiped the light group, and the fearful and uncertain cultivators within it disappeared without a trace.

He then turned and walked into the endless void without saying a word. Within three breaths, he vanished before the others, leaving even Black Flame Profound Immortal unable to see him.

Between coming and going, he only took a few breaths and did not say a single word.

“It seems the Immortal Monarch is in a hurry.”

The questioning True Immortal behind Black Flame Profound Immortal whispered softly, his voice not deliberately concealed. Both Black Flame Profound Immortal and the other True Immortal could hear him.

“This means that it might be close to a crucial moment.”

“Perhaps, our Age Candle Immortal Court will have another Daluo Golden Immortal in the near future.”

“It would be a great blessing.”

Black Flame Profound Immortal said ‘great blessing’, but his eyes flashed with doubt and heaviness.

He did not mention the strange feeling he had sensed when Linghua Immortal Monarch wiped the light group.

Ancient Demon aura?

No, not quite the same as the Ancient Demon aura either.

Although the moment was too short, he was certain that he hadn’t sensed it wrong. As someone who had fought with Ancient Demons in the extraterrestrial void battlefield south of the Daluo Fairy Court, he was very familiar with the aura of Ancient Demons.

As Linghua Immortal Monarch wiped his hand earlier, transferring all the cultivators away, a strand of aura entered Black Flame’s Immortal Spirit Realm for a brief moment. The Immortal Spirit Realm was the core of Black Flame’s cultivation, so he had a strong grasp of it and sensed the abnormality in Linghua Immortal Monarch’s strand of aura.

“Could it be even more refined than the Ancient Demon aura? Could it really be an Ancient God?”

Black Flame Profound Immortal thought of an ancient legend and trembled in his inner heart.

The rumor was that one of the three Ancient races, the Ancient Gods, gave birth to the Ancient Demons after their demise at the beginning of the ancient era.

Thus, from the beginning of the ancient era, there was the saying that gods and demons were one and the same.

Thinking of this, Black Flame Profound Immortal shook his head, for no matter what, he was not qualified to get involved in the affairs of the Immortal Monarch, nor did he dare to. Perhaps just one glance or a snap of Linghua Immortal Monarch’s fingers, and his tens of thousands of years of cultivation would vanish.

However…Nôv(el)B\\jnn

He would still report the discovery of that strange aura, as it is the responsibility of a member of the Immortal Court.

No matter what, if something happened to Linghua Immortal Monarch, it would pose a significant threat to the entire Immortal Court.

As for how to deal with it later, that was not something he could interfere with.

“Let’s go.”

He did not respond to the True Immortal’s whisper, only uttered these two words in a low voice, and turned around, heading south to return to the Age Candle Immortal Court.

The previously silent True Immortal followed him closely while the one who had whispered looked deeply at the endless void, their eyes filled with speculation. However, they did not dare to enter the void on their own and instead turned and followed Black Flame Profound Immortal as he left.
