Chapter 359: Immortal King and Immortal King Realm

Boom!

A seriously corroded five-colored skeleton fell into the ruins.

Black Skeleton immediately ran over and picked up the five-colored skeleton’s soul flame.

“This is a fresh soul flame. Its will has been severed, but it still has pure energy. It’s just nice to absorb it and improve one’s strength,” Black Skeleton said in delight.

Behind it, White Skeleton also came. It said calmly, “Those present should all get a share of it!”

Black Skeleton wanted to curse.

But the crystal skull also floated over and said, “Everyone gets a share!”

Black Skeleton endured its heartache. Under Lin Jiufeng’s gaze, it divided the five-colored skeleton’s soul flame into three.

“This one-third of the soul flame is better than nothing, right? This five-colored skeleton has just advanced to this realm not long ago, it definitely hasn’t been for more than a hundred years. Its strength is average, but Immortal King Lin, aren’t you too powerful? You killed it just like that?” The crystal skull looked at Lin Jiufeng in surprise. Because its soul flame had been nourished by a third of the five-colored skeleton’s soul flame. It had already recovered to a normal state, reaching the level of an immortal-level soul flame.

At the very least, it could protect itself, hide, and also do its best to escape.

It was much better than the previous wisp of weak soul flame.

“That’s right. Great Emperor Jiufeng, you’ve only just broken through. How can you be so powerful?” Black Skeleton asked curiously after absorbing the soul flame.

White Skeleton also looked at Lin Jiufeng.

“Among those of the same realm, I’m invincible. I can even kill enemies of a higher realm than me. But I wonder how powerful a crystal skeleton is,” Lin Jiufeng said confidently.

“You won’t be able to defeat a crystal skeleton,” the crystal skull said affirmatively.

“Why?” Lin Jiufeng humbly asked.

“Because although the gap between the crystal skeleton and the five-colored skeleton is only one realm, there are Nine Heavens to be climbed between these two realms!” The crystal skull explained.

“You’re saying that there are still Nine Heavens in the Five-Colored Skeleton Realm, which is the Immortal King Realm?” Lin Jiufeng asked solemnly.

He really didn’t know anything about the Immortal King Realm.

Previously, Lin Jiufeng thought that after a five-colored skeleton broke through, the next realm would be the crystal skeleton.

But from the looks of it, that wasn’t the case.

The two skeletons also listened attentively. They were both golden soul flames now. They had absorbed a third of the Immortal King’s soul flame, and they also needed to break through from the Five-Colored Skeleton Realm in the future. Therefore, they listened extremely carefully now.

The crystal skull said, “In the Immortal King Realm, there are Nine Heavens to cross. But in the Death Realm, among the five-colored skeletons, it’s not called the Nine Heavens, but the nine levels.”

“Using the five-colored soul flame as the foundation, the five-colored skeleton that you easily killed was at the first level.” The crystal skull explained in detail to Lin Jiufeng and the others.

“I understand. So that’s the case.” Lin Jiufeng was enlightened.

His thinking was still a little simple previously.

There were Nine Heavens in the Immortal King Realm. He was only at the first heaven of the Immortal King Realm now.

“How did this Nine Heavens come about? I’ve never heard of it before,” Black Skeleton asked curiously.

“Me too. Perhaps it’s because we’ve always stayed in the periphery and are ignorant. But in the past realms, there were very few so-called Nine Heavens,” White Skeleton said.

Lin Jiufeng was also very curious, but the priority now was to leave this place.

“Let’s talk as we walk. A huge battle happened here, it will definitely attract the attention of the other five-colored skeletons. If a five-colored skeleton of the fourth or fifth level comes, I might not be able to defeat it.” Lin Jiufeng knew himself very well. He knew that he could kill enemies of a higher level, but he wouldn’t be able to do so if the enemy is several levels higher.

If he had the Light of the Homes, the General Appointing Platform, the Life-Reversing Great Dao Array Formation, and the Sword of the Holy Church, he would dare to fight a crystal skeleton head-on.

But now that he had only newly come to this realm, it was better to keep a low profile.

‘I shall wait until I familiarize myself with the depths of the Death Realm before I make a move to suppress this place.’ Lin Jiufeng thought to himself.

They didn’t stay any longer and quickly left this place.

Black Skeleton carried its bronze tablet.

White Skeleton carried the coffin of the King of the Netherworld.

The crystal skull floated in the air on its own.

They were wrapped by Lin Jiufeng’s True Qi and instantly disappeared, leaving the ancient city.

Previously, it was still a dilapidated ancient city. But now, there was no trace of it at all.

It was completely destroyed by the battle just now.

A minute after they left, three five-colored skeletons descended with a bang.

These three five-colored skeletons were tall and had thick bones. Each of them was more than ten meters tall.

“Someone killed the five-colored skeleton of our Giant City,” a giant skeleton said.

“It was directly crushed and killed. The cultivation technique used is unheard of.” The soul flame of a giant skeleton was pursuing the Nine Pure Immortal Lights that Lin Jiufeng had used just now.

“In that case, a new skeleton came to the Death Realm. After entering this place, it became an Immortal King and killed its way into the depths of the Death Realm,” the tallest giant skeleton said.

“That should be the case. A new five-colored skeleton appeared with a new immortal technique.” The giant skeleton that spoke first nodded.

“Find it and invite it to come to our Giant City as a guest. Let it tell us everything it knows.” The tallest giant skeleton gave an order.

“Yes, Lord Lin An!” The two giant skeletons cupped their fists and said.

The tallest giant skeleton was called Lin An. Its soul flame was thicker and more terrifying than the other two five-colored skeletons combined.

…

Lin Jiufeng didn’t know about these yet. He brought the two skeletons and the crystal skull along with him. Along the way, he heard the crystal skull talking about the origins of the Nine Heavens of the Immortal King Realm.

As Lin Jiufeng advanced, he listened attentively.

He had just entered the Immortal King Realm and knew nothing about this realm. Although the crystal skull only had a skull left, it had at least crossed the Nine Heavens of the Immortal King Realm and entered the next realm.

Hence, it definitely knew a lot.

The crystal skull said, “According to my understanding, it was actually many years ago, probably 100,000 years ago. The Immortal King Realm isn’t called the Immortal King Realm yet, nor is there the so-called Nine Heavens. Everyone’s title of this realm varied, each of them being different. The titles of different factions and races for this realm are all different.”

“Then why did it become the current Nine Heavens of the Immortal King Realm?” Black Skeleton asked curiously.

“I want to know too. Moreover, how did you know about what happened 100,000 years ago?” White Skeleton asked.

“How would I know what happened 100,000 years ago? Let’s talk about this question in the future.” The crystal skull refused to answer this question. It answered Black Skeleton’s question. “The former titles for this realm became the current Nine Heavens of the Immortal King Realm because of a single person!”

“A single person?” Black Skeleton looked at the crystal skull in surprise.

“Yes.” The crystal skull nodded firmly.

“Who? He’s so powerful that he changed a major realm?” White Skeleton asked in shock.

Lin Jiufeng was also very curious. He flew for a long distance before stopping in front of a mountain. Then, he released the others.

The mountain was in the distance, and a clear lake was in front of them. The lake water was sparkling. This was very rare. In the Death Realm where the death energy was dense, it was rare to see such clear river water.

As for the Yin River, it was yellow in color. It couldn’t compare to this, but it was comparable to the Yellow River of the mortal realm.

Lin Jiufeng sat on the green grass and quietly observed his surroundings. Then, he listened to the crystal skull’s story.

“This person was a powerhouse called [Immortal King]. He existed 100,000 years ago. Some people said that he was a powerhouse from the same era as Great Emperor Shakyamuni. Some people also said that he was a peerless Immortal King who rose to power after Great Emperor Shakyamuni disappeared. No one knows about him anymore, but because of him back then, the realm of the Immortal King was confirmed. Until now, it still exists,” the crystal skull said.

Immortal King Lin’s heart moved. He knew about this Immortal King.

Immortal King Attacking the Nine Heavens!

Moreover, he appeared with the King of Gods and the King of Recovery back then to guide him.

Back then, when Immortal King appeared, he carried with him an invincible aura. Immortal light lingered around his body as he chanted a poem.

“I have an immortal heart that has been locked up by the dust for a long time. When the dust is gone, this heart will appear again and shine through the myriad mountains and rivers!”

Then, Lin Jiufeng signed in for the phenomenon of the Immortal King Attacking the Nine Heavens.

It was just that Lin Jiufeng had never thought that there was a connection between the Immortal King Attacking the Nine Heavens and the Immortal King Realm.

This was too unexpected.

“Why is everyone using [Immortal King] to name this realm?” Lin Jiufeng asked seriously.

This really surprised him, because he had never thought that the Immortal King Realm was actually named after a single person.

Moreover, he had come into contact with this person long ago.

Although it was just a fleeting glance and the other party was just a wisp of soul consciousness scattered in the world, Lin Jiufeng wanted to figure it out.

He discovered that he might be slowly coming into contact with the core secrets of this world.

“Because [Immortal King] did a world-shaking thing. He used his own might to name the Immortal King Realm,” the crystal skull said.

“What world-shaking matter?” Black Skeleton was very curious. Hearing the story of such a powerhouse was incomparably attractive to it.

It was the same for White Skeleton. It was also very interested in this Immortal King who had the Immortal King Realm named after him.

“Immortal King, attacking the heavens, and shattering the Nine Heavens!” The crystal skull said.

“It’s because of this matter that there are Nine Heavens in the Immortal King Realm. They correspond to the Nine Heavens that were shattered by him back then. Moreover, this event is also permanently branded in the mortal realm. The phenomenon of Immortal King Attacking the Nine Heavens is one of the most powerful phenomena,” the crystal skull said solemnly.

“Immortal King Attacking the Nine Heavens! It sounds very powerful,” Black Skeleton said enviously.

“But what exactly is the Nine Heavens? Why is the Immortal King going against it?” White Skeleton asked curiously.

Lin Jiufeng sat at the side and listened silently. His heart was surging too.

It turned out that it was because Immortal King went against the Nine Heavens back then and shattered the Nine Heavens by himself. That was why he was remembered by the world. Then, the Immortal King Realm was confirmed. Even 100,000 years later, this name was still used for this realm.

This was very terrifying.

Facing White Skeleton’s doubts, the crystal skull replied straightforwardly, “I don’t know.”

“Don’t you know a lot of things?” Black Skeleton asked in surprise.

“I know quite a lot, but I’m not omnipotent. I also heard it from others, read it in ancient books, and I also investigated it. But that era is too old, that was a matter from 100,000 years ago. Even now, information from 30,000 years ago can also hardly be found, let alone 100,000 years ago,” the crystal skull said from the bottom of its heart.

“It’s also 100,000 years ago that two powerful powerhouses, Great Emperor Shakyamuni and Immortal King, appeared. One of them established the Buddhist sect that bloomed everywhere. Even today, Buddhist sects are still around. These sects still contained sporadic records of Great Emperor Shakyamuni.”

“As for Immortal King, it was because he went against the Nine Heavens and left behind the fundamental phenomenon of Immortal King Attacking the Nine Heavens for all eternity that we were able to investigate it. But it’s been so long, it’s already not easy to have this bit of information.”

“As for what the Nine Heavens are? Why did Immortal King go against them? Was Immortal King alive or dead in the end?”

“I don’t know, probably no one in this world knows either.”

“I’ve told you all the information I know. I really don’t know anything else.”

The crystal skull was very straightforward. It shared everything it knew and then stopped talking.

“Immortal King Attacking the Nine Heavens, I have this phenomenon!” Lin Jiufeng listened for a while and said silently.

Shuash! Shuash! Shuash!

The three of them looked at Lin Jiufeng. Their soul flames were fluttering and very active.

“Immortal King Lin, you comprehended the Immortal King Attacking the Nine Heavens phenomenon?” The crystal skull asked in surprise.

Lin Jiufeng didn’t say anything else. The energy behind him exploded, and a phenomenon descended. An invincible Immortal King holding a huge ax shattered the Nine Heavens!

Boom!

This short phenomenon erupted with a huge amount of energy, especially when the Immortal King wielded a huge ax and slashed through the Nine Heavens.

The three of them were captivated by this scene. They were all astonished.

That terrifying power was augmented onto the ax. The power that erupted from it overturned the Nine Heavens, swept through the Six Paths and Three Realms, and drowned the people of the world. Although it was only a fleeting glance, this might have left them deeply shocked.

Even for Lin Jiufeng, this was the first time he saw these scenes.

He was also shocked.

“It turns out that when I enter the Immortal King Realm, the phenomenon of Immortal King Attacking the Nine Heavens will also be completed. These new scenes are the true Immortal King Attacking the Nine Heavens phenomenon. It’s too terrifying. It has the feeling of splitting the entire world apart with an ax.” Lin Jiufeng was very shocked. He immediately thought of the reason and was surprised by how terrifying the Immortal King Attacking the Nine Heavens phenomenon was.

“Immortal King Lin, how did you comprehend the Immortal King Attacking the Nine Heavens phenomenon?” After the crystal skull was shocked, it asked impatiently.

“Nothing special, I just comprehended it by chance,” Lin Jiufeng replied.

“You can bring the Immortal King Attacking the Nine Heavens phenomenon to greater heights. At that time, if you really become a terrifying powerhouse like Immortal King, you will be able to revive.” The crystal skull suggested seriously.

“Alright. Immortal King Realm, Immortal King Attacking the Nine Heavens, these topics shall end here!” Lin Jiufeng suddenly interrupted the crystal skull. He looked around and said seriously, “We are still in the Death Realm now. We still have to find the Well of Heaven Ascension and enter the mortal realm. I also have to do what the King of the Netherworld did back then and suppress the Death Realm with a flip of my palm.”

“Therefore, you should tell me where we should go next instead of continuing to discuss the Immortal King Attacking the Nine Heavens phenomenon. Leave this matter for later. There are priorities in the matters to be done.” Lin Jiufeng knew what the priority was.

The most important thing now was to establish a foothold in the depths of the Death Realm.

“Then let’s go to the Giant City first!” The crystal skull immediately said.

“Didn’t you say that the Giant City is very dangerous? Then why are we going?” Lin Jiufeng frowned and asked.

“It’s because of the danger that it’s worthy of us going. As for why we are going, it’s natural to ask the skeletons there about the current situation of the Death Realm. After all, I’ve been driven out for many years. The world has changed. The ancient cities that I knew back then have all become ruins, so we have to figure out the current situation of the Death Realm. We need to know if there is any powerful faction or anyone powerful.” The crystal skull explained seriously.

“Okay, let’s go to Giant City!” Lin Jiufeng immediately said.
