Undying Life

Chapter 925: Chapter 925: The Arrival of Ying

"What could be in Nuwa's tomb?" the Nine-Tailed Princess asked.

"Sage artifacts!" Zhong Shan replied with certainty.

"Sage artifacts?" Su Afo and the Nine-Tailed Princess's eyes lit up.

"At least sage artifacts. From the look of things, there are far too many people coming this time. Representatives from nearly every major force are arriving," Zhong Shan said, shaking his head.

"Yes, not only are the major forces from all over the world coming, but the top experts of the Fengzhong Territory will undoubtedly converge at the Snake Queen's Dojo. By now, the dojo must already be teeming with powerful figures!" Zhong Shan confirmed.

"You mean the Sage King will go too?" the Nine-Tailed Princess frowned.

"Of course. Such a significant event—how could he not? This isn't just about sage artifacts; it's about the reshuffling of powers in the Fengzhong Territory. No one knows what lies ahead, so we must go!" Zhong Shan said with absolute certainty.

"What about us? Should we leave now?" the Nine-Tailed Princess looked at Zhong Shan, her eyes full of inquiry.

"Yes, it's time. We must arrive early!" Zhong Shan nodded.

Zhong Shan, Su Afo, and the Nine-Tailed Princess set off at great speed toward the Snake Queen's Dojo.

At Sima Qing's mansion.

Sima Qing looked at the head of the Sima family, Sima Yuan.

"Father, the Snake Queen's Dojo depends on you this time!" Sima Qing said respectfully.

"Hmm, the Sima family has endured for so many years. The time has come. I will handle matters at the Snake Queen's Dojo. As for you..." Sima Yuan looked at Sima Qing.

"Rest assured, Father. I will handle everything perfectly!" Sima Qing said confidently.

"Hmm, I trust you," Sima Yuan nodded in satisfaction.

"Then I will await your triumphant return at Qingqiu."

"Indeed!"

In the Qingqiu Imperial Palace.

The Taichu Sage King looked at Mr. Li and said, "This trip to the Snake Queen's Dojo will be long and inconvenient. I'll leave the affairs of Qingqiu in your hands."

"Don't worry!" Mr. Li nodded.

The Taichu Sage King nodded and disappeared.

Forces from all sides were heading toward the Snake Queen's Dojo.

The Snake Queen's Dojo was located in the western part of the Fengzhong Territory.

During the past hundred years, Zhong Shan had been hovering at the peak of the Ninth Heaven of Immortals, while Su Afo had reached the Great Immortal Realm thirty years ago.

The three of them traveled as fast as possible, but it still took them half a year to reach the Snake Queen's Dojo.

The area around the dojo was already surrounded by countless powerful figures, all staring at the main peak in the distance.

A massive mountain loomed overhead, shrouded in infinite merit, with countless figures of merit radiating brilliant light.

Beneath the vast merit was the Snake Queen's Dojo.

The top of the mountain seemed to have been sliced off, leaving a huge plateau filled with numerous palaces. Many experts of the Snake Queen's Dojo stood on the plaza, glaring coldly at the countless powerful figures from all directions.

Leading them was a man in a green robe with a handsome face, wielding a green longsword. The sword emitted a myriad of green sword auras, soaring into the sky and intimidating all around.

"That's Feng Xingyun Daojun of the Snake Queen's Dojo. Aside from the Snake Queen herself, he holds the highest position in the dojo," the Nine-Tailed Princess said, pointing to the man in the green robe.

"Feng Xingyun?" Zhong Shan frowned.

He had learned about Feng Xingyun during his data collection. Feng Xingyun was a peerless genius of the Snake Queen's Dojo, at the pinnacle of the Great Immortal Realm, just one step away from becoming an Ancient Immortal. This wasn't the critical point, though. The key was his surname. In the Snake Queen's Dojo, only he bore the surname Feng. Nuwa, also known as Feng Lixi, shared the same surname.

What was Feng Xingyun's true identity?

The valley and its surroundings were the territory of the Snake Queen's Dojo. Many places were protected by formations, but the outermost area was not. It was packed with powerful figures from all directions, both from within and outside the Fengzhong Territory. These forces varied in strength. The strong ones could seize a mountain peak, as if everyone was waiting.

Zhong Shan was about to survey the various forces when a sudden scene caught everyone's attention.

Five figures flew towards the main peak at the center.

Standing on the main peak, Feng Xingyun coldly watched the five approaching figures.

"Feng Xingyun, move aside!" the leader shouted.

It seemed everyone's target was the grand hall at the center of the main peak. That hall appeared to be an entrance to a small world, similar to the Changsheng Realm in Zhong Shan's small world, but the Snake Queen's Dojo was peculiar. The endless merit wasn't within the small world but on this main peak.

"I'll say it again: Lady Nuwa left a decree. Since we cannot prevent it, the Nuwa Realm will open. However, the time has not yet come. We have one more month! No one is to trespass!" Feng Xingyun said sternly.

"Trespass? Hmph, there are sage artifacts inside. One more month? Are you planning to refine the sage artifacts within that month? Dream on!" the leader scoffed.

"Whoosh—"

With a flick of Feng Xingyun's green sword, a massive green sword scar mysteriously appeared in the air.

"I won't repeat myself. This line—anyone who crosses it dies!" Feng Xingyun said coldly.

"Die? Ha! You're just a Great Immortal. There are five of us. What can you do to us?" the Great Immortal sneered.

In a flash, he stepped across the green line drawn by Feng Xingyun.

"Buzz—"

A sword hum echoed in the void. A green light flashed, and countless sword auras suddenly shot out, carving terrifying streaks through the air, forming a swirling vortex of sword energy that looked extremely domineering. Feng Xingyun's sword energy extended to ten thousand feet in length.

"Boom—"

With a loud crash, Feng Xingyun returned to his original position, while the Great Immortal in the air was sliced in half by Feng Xingyun's sword and was further obliterated by the infinite sword rain, dying instantly.

A one-hit kill!

The eyelids of countless powerful figures outside twitched violently. A Great Immortal versus another Great Immortal? A one-hit kill?

"Senior brother!" the remaining four Great Immortals cried out in fury.

They charged forward, driven by anger.

"Humph!" Feng Xingyun snorted, his hair slightly moving. He swung his green sword again, unleashing terrifying sword lights towards the four Great Immortals.

This time, Feng Xingyun's power seemed even more terrifying. With one swing, eight dazzling sword lights burst forth, each as powerful as the previous one.

"Dare you—!"

A loud roar echoed through the void.

"Boom——!"

A flash of red light and another sword strike suddenly intercepted Feng Xingyun's attack.

Feng Xingyun stopped his sword and coldly eyed the red sword and the red-robed man wielding it.

The four Great Immortals who had crossed the line earlier were now drenched in cold sweat. In that brief moment, they had experienced the sheer terror of Feng Xingyun's power. His one strike had locked them in place, leaving them with no escape. The feeling of waiting for death was too horrifying.

"Master!" the four addressed the red-robed man respectfully.

Master? It was clear that the earlier charge by the five was under the red-robed man's direction, but they hadn't anticipated Feng Xingyun's strength.

"Boom!"

Feng Xingyun and the red-robed man's swords clashed and separated.

"Feng Xingyun, how dare you kill my disciple? If the Snake Queen's leader doesn't give me an explanation today, I will...!" the red-robed man said angrily.

"You crossed the line," Feng Xingyun replied indifferently.

"Ancient Immortal, Blood Sword King?" someone recognized the red-robed man from afar.

Zhong Shan had no information on the Blood Sword King in his mind, and he didn't need to know because he understood that the prelude hadn't even started.

"Haha! Crossed the line?" the Blood Sword King laughed coldly.

Ignoring him, Feng Xingyun swung his sword again. The Blood Sword King also swung his sword quickly, meeting the strike head-on.

The two sword tips clashed, and a torrent of blood waves surged around the Blood Sword King's sword, while eight strange green currents circled around Feng Xingyun, resembling sword energy and strong winds.

"Boom——!"

The eight green currents, with immense force, reversed the blood waves, and the terrifying sword intent directly pressured the Blood Sword King.

Their swords clashed.

"Ding!"

"Boom——!"

Blood waves, green currents, and endless sword energy enveloped that part of the sky. After a loud explosion, the blood waves and green currents gradually dissipated.

Feng Xingyun still stood proudly in the air, holding his sword, while the Blood Sword King had been forced back beyond the line drawn by Feng Xingyun. His clothes bore eight large slashes, tattered and torn.

Everyone understood—Feng Xingyun had won!

The Blood Sword King, an Ancient Immortal, was defeated?

That was an Ancient Immortal, a powerful swordmaster! The Blood Sword King was defeated by Feng Xingyun?

"You, you have reached the Ancient Immortal stage?" the Blood Sword King frowned.

Feng Xingyun ignored him and returned to the plaza. It was clear to everyone that the Blood Sword King no longer dared to challenge Feng Xingyun, and Feng Xingyun had indeed reached the Ancient Immortal stage.

Though he hadn't killed the Blood Sword King, he had used his power to warn everyone: no one should act rashly for the next month.

The Blood Sword King lacked the courage to step forward again. He knew that Feng Xingyun had spared him, but if he pushed his luck, Feng Xingyun wouldn't hesitate to kill him as a warning.

"Master, are you alright?" one disciple called out.

"Your master just changed his style of clothing, what's the big deal?" someone in the crowd mocked.

"Hahaha!"

"Hahahaha!"

Failed to show dominance, turned into a laughingstock. The Blood Sword King's face flushed red with anger.

He turned and flew back with his four disciples.

Not long after, they stopped, and the Blood Sword King glared coldly at his previous battlefield. During their brief absence, another group had taken their place on the peak.

"Get lost!" the Blood Sword King roared.

From afar, Zhong Shan turned to look. On the peak, three figures stood, two of whom Zhong Shan recognized. The Sage King of Great Qin, Ying!

Ying stood at the front, followed by two others. One was dressed in a black robe, completely covered, and the other was the Great Qin God of War, Bai Qi!

The Blood Sword King was shouting at Ying?
