The Eight Domains and the Three Thousand Provinces indeed have many good things. For example, the spiritual root in the Desolate Medicine Capital.
Inside is the body of the Emperor Guang Immortal King who sells fake medicine.
Among the ancient immortals of the Three Thousand Dao Provinces, there is also the immortal herb, the White Tortoise Carrying Immortal.
Inside the ominous ship lay the Great Luo Immortal Sword. But Yunhua didn't want to keep all the good stuff for himself.
“That’s true. Even if we get our hands on many things, they’re useless for the time being,” Tianhuangji replied.
Kunpengzi kept gazing outside; the uninhabited area was vast and deep. "This place is truly dangerous."
From the moment they entered the no-man's-land, they saw many strange things.
There were broken bones, bloodshot eyes, skeletons walking in all directions, and groups of people dressed in ancient attire lined up in formation.
Many things made Kunpengzi feel threatened.
However, under Qingjing's guidance, the Sun God Tree was unparalleled, and those strange creatures had no chance to stop or attack Yunhua and the others.
"The origins of these items are very complex; some are even related to deceased immortal kings," Yunhua said.
"Although the strangeness has been reduced by the erosion of time and their own consumption, they still pose a great threat to cultivators below the Supreme level."
Tianhuangji added, "There are some things I remember; I've seen what they looked like in life on the battlefield."
“There are cultivators from the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, as well as people from other realms.”
"It was truly a brutal battle," Kunpengzi sighed.
He had not experienced that war, but from some of the conditions in the no-man's-land, he could imagine some aspects of what the war was like.
"Strive to become stronger. War has never gone away. If foreign lands invade again, I don't want to add more strange things to the no man's land."
Yunhua calmly said, "Don't even let the no-man's land be blown up."
"There's something ahead," Qingjing suddenly said. "It doesn't seem strange."
"What is that?" Kunpengzi asked in confusion.
"A grove of purple bamboo." Yunhua sensed it too, and seemed to be deep in thought.
He saw a grove of purple bamboo in the no-man's-land, and he knew what it was.
"So that's where it is." Tianhuangji murmured, his tone extremely complicated.
"Should we go around it, or go straight in?" Qingjing looked at Yunhua, her expression calm and her eyes unwavering.
She wasn't worried about encountering danger because she already knew about Yunhua's situation from Liu Shen and the others.
Knowing that Yunhua could use her peak power, she could absolutely annihilate everything; what was a mere bamboo forest to fear?
Chapter 1205 The Immortal Ancient Minor World
"It is the Purple Bamboo Forest in the South China Sea during the Immortal Ancient Era, which was a very famous Taoist temple during that time."
"The Celestial King resides here," Yunhua whispered. "Let's go in and take a look; it won't harm us."
With a quiet nod, the Sun God Tree flew straight up.
Upon approaching, the purple bamboo forest came into view, filled with an ethereal atmosphere, utterly dreamlike, as if it had been preserved in this life as a former celestial abode.
But it's all fake. This is just a small space formed after the Immortal King Wuzhong and the Immortal King Liudao Lunhui of the past broke through the ages and reincarnated through the six realms.
It can reflect the past, allowing people in the future to dream back to the past.
Yunhua and the others emerged from the Sun God Tree and entered the South China Sea Purple Bamboo Forest before them.
Visiting someone's shrine and then recklessly driving around on the Sun Tree is against the rules.
The moment I stepped into the Purple Bamboo Forest from the no-man's land, the world changed dramatically, and everything was different.
The chaotic, desolate, and eerie no-man's-land disappeared, and what appeared before Yunhua and the others was a brilliant radiance of immortal light amidst surging chaos.
From the outside, it looks like a misty bamboo forest, but once you step inside, you'll find that it's actually a world unto itself.
A misty haze drifted through every corner, the mountains and rivers embodying the spirit of heaven and earth, and various celestial birds flew about, creating a scene of peace and tranquility.
The aura of immortals permeated this place, making it exceptionally sacred and solemn.
“I’ve come here again…” Yun Huaji sighed, his tone extremely complicated.
“In the past, this place was a place where geniuses paid homage, immortals resided for a long time, immortal kings preached the Dao, and all realms admired it.”
The Heavenly Desolate Halberd is a weapon that lived through the glorious era of the Immortal Ancient Age. It evokes many feelings at this moment.
Tianhuangji sighed there, and Yunhua and the others also saw many things, including a girl holding a Qilin cub and a young immortal phoenix.
There was also a young supreme being surrounded by three streams of immortal energy, carrying a divine golden sword on his back.
The sacred mountains stand tall, where precious medicinal herbs have grown for hundreds of thousands of years, possessing extremely potent medicinal properties.
As Yunhua and his companions looked around, the creatures in the distance also noticed them.
When their gazes fell upon the Heavenly Desolate Halberd, these people were taken aback and quickly came over to pay their respects to it.
"Greetings, senior." Tianhuangji looked at the young men and women, and for a moment he didn't know what to say.
He knew these people. The Celestial Phoenix and the Qilin, three streams of immortal energy, would not have remained unknown even in the ancient times; they would have been hailed as supreme geniuses and received worldwide attention.
If these people survive, their future achievements will at least be those of True Immortals, and some may even glimpse the King Realm. How could He not recognize these youths?
Of course, as Kunpeng's weapon, these prodigies naturally recognized the Heavenly Desolate Halberd.
"It's good to see you all again..." Tianhuangji's voice was deep.
"Yes, it's great to see you again, senior." The girl holding the Qilin cub smiled.
"Has Lord Kunpeng not come?" the young man carrying the immortal sword asked.
“Master…” Tianhuangji could not continue.
The young men and women opposite him looked sad when they heard Tianhuangji's words, but the sadness disappeared in an instant, as if they had forgotten about the problem.
"Have Lord Wuzhong and the others arrived yet?" Tianhuangji asked.
"Not yet," the girl who was actually a phoenix replied with a smile.
"However, many races and their chosen prodigies have already arrived. Senior, please come in with us and go see them."
"See them again..." the fairy phoenix girl murmured at the end.
“Alright, let’s go see them, let’s see Immortal Ancient!” Tianhuangji replied firmly and forcefully.
"Senior, who are these people?" The girl holding the Qilin looked at Yunhua and the others curiously.
"This is the master's offspring," Tianhuangji introduced Kunpengzi first.
Upon hearing this, the eyes of the young men lit up, and the Qilin in the girl's arms even leaped onto Kunpengzi's body.
The little Qilin sniffed hard at Kunpengzi, indeed smelling the scent of Kunpeng's bloodline, but also sensing something else. This dimmed the little Qilin's eyes, making it somewhat listless.
"The offspring of Lord Kunpeng has actually turned out like this..."
"Hahahaha." The young man with the sword on his back laughed loudly, "It is already a blessing to be able to see Lord Kunpeng's offspring today."
“This is a fellow Daoist who has awakened from an ancient era,” Tianhuangji introduced Qingjing.
Many of the young people, seeing the tranquility, couldn't help but feel a sense of awe and addressed him as "senior." They could sense the extraordinary nature of the tranquility.
"And this one, also a fellow Daoist who doesn't belong to this era, my senior." Tianhuangji introduced Yunhua last.
"It's a pleasure to meet you all." Yunhua smiled kindly.
The young men looked at Yunhua with a sense of warmth and comfort, but it was impossible for them to discern Yunhua's true nature.
But the fact that the Heavenly Desolate Halberd was created by its predecessors is enough to explain something.
The little Qilin jumped onto Yunhua's body again, burrowing its little head into Yunhua's arms.
"It smells so good, it's so comforting!" Little Qilin shouted. "Ah Ling, come and rub against me too!"
"A feeling of floating on air!"
The girl who was holding the Qilin was named A-Ling. Upon hearing the little Qilin's words, she blushed deeply.
Laughter erupted, and for a moment these people forgot to consider Yunhua's identity.
Yunhua patted the Qilin's head, and the Qilin didn't resist, instead nuzzling against Yunhua.
Seeing the Qilin made Yunhua thoughtful. If she had known she would encounter the Purple Bamboo Forest in the South China Sea, perhaps she should have brought Ge Gu with her.
But who knows what will happen?
After all, Yunhua and the Immortal Palace Supreme did not meet when they crossed the no-man's land, nor did he meet when he returned alone.
Led by Tianhuangji and the others, Yunhua and the others advanced deeper into the Purple Bamboo Forest.
The scenery along the way was truly eye-opening. Of course, in reality, it was only Kunpengzi who had his eyes opened.
Tianhuangji often came here during the ancient times of the Immortal Era, so he was not surprised; he was simply reminiscing.
Qingjing remained unmoved; the Heavenly Court of her grandfather and his ancestors during the era of Emperor Luo was even more magnificent and majestic.
Compared to the Heavenly Court, this place is just average.
Yunhua viewed all of this with a nostalgic eye, for it was here that they ambushed the foreign immortal king during the ancient battle of the Immortal Realm.
Along the way, they met many people, all of whom greeted the girls who were leading the way in a friendly manner. Regardless of their cultivation level, everyone got along peacefully.
Yunhua and his group of strangers also received courteous treatment.
Of course, this was also due to the Heavenly Desolate Halberd. However, the atmosphere here still surprised Kunpengzi.
That's right, all the surprises during the trip to the Purple Bamboo Forest were caused by Kunpengzi; he surprised everyone.
"It's so harmonious here. Everyone is talking about metaphysics and philosophy. There's no fighting or violence."
"Transcending worldly concerns, undisturbed by worldly affairs, single-mindedly seeking the Tao."
Chapter 1206 Wuzhong and the Immortal King of the Six Paths of Reincarnation
“That’s just the atmosphere in the Immortal Ancient City,” Tianhuangji said. “Most people are very peaceful, and there are very few life-or-death struggles.”
“A cultivator of immortality,” Yunhua commented.
The atmosphere of the Immortal Ancient World perfectly matches people's speculations about cultivators and immortals.
He secluded himself for many years, absorbing the essence of nature. After emerging from seclusion, he would visit friends and discuss the Dao, remaining untouched by worldly affairs, keeping company with heaven and earth, and befriending the Great Dao.
There's not so much scheming and petty calculation involved; at most, it's just that we have different principles and can't work together.
Kunpengzi shook his head, "Can cultivators raised in such an environment keep up in terms of combat strength?"
“You’re too attached to appearances. Seeking breakthroughs in battle is the Great Way, and comprehending the Way of Heaven in meditation is also the Great Way.” Yunhua shook his head.
"Even in the ancient times, there were Immortal Kings and invincible geniuses."
"You can't think there's a problem with this method or this cultivation environment just because Xian Gu was defeated."
"Faced with an attack from another realm, few great realms can withstand it; even the Immortal Realm is in danger of annihilation."
The ancient times were filled with powerful immortals, a golden age of brilliance, and this environment for cultivation was partly due to that.
Such an environment allows promising talents to grow fully, greatly reducing the possibility of them failing halfway through their development.
Seniors are happy to guide juniors, and juniors are not afraid of seniors, creating a harmonious atmosphere.
Once you reach the realm of True Immortal or Immortal King, there is no difference between fighting and meditating.
These ancient geniuses seemed oblivious to Yunhua and his companions' conversation.
And every now and then, streaks of light would flash across the sky, and ancient beasts would roar as they entered the deepest part of the Purple Bamboo Forest.
According to the girls who were holding the Qilin, these were all important figures at the immortal level.
We'll get to hear these important figures preach later.
"Dong!" Suddenly, a great bell rang out, and a large bell entered from outside, passing through the air. The sound of the bell carried a power that cleansed the primordial spirit and purified the magical power.
"Lord Wuzhong has arrived!" a prodigy shouted, revealing the name of the Lord of the Immortal Bell.
As the large bell rang, Yunhua felt that there was also a broken bell shaking inside his cave, echoing the bell outside.
The one inside Yunhua Cave is the present-day Bell of No End, while the one that crosses the sky above the Purple Bamboo Forest is the Bell of No End from the past.
