Chapter 1109 - Chapter 1109 Chapter 457 The Eighth Element of The Origin

Chapter 1109: Chapter 457: The Eighth Element of The Origin Path, Destiny God Skill_1 Chapter 1109: Chapter 457: The Eighth Element of The Origin Path, Destiny God Skill_1 Han Yi halted his steps and looked towards Yi Long Immortal Monarch, who stood at a higher position on Nine Yi Mountain, several miles away.

At this moment, Yi Long Immortal Monarch’s expression was no longer indifferent. His vertical pupils were as deep as an abyss, inscrutable.

Han Yi’s expression turned solemn. He first bowed respectfully, and after raising his head, his body vanished from the spot. When he reappeared, he had already traversed the distance of several miles and was in front of Yi Long Immortal Monarch. Faster than him was the Green Reed Sword, which by now was positioned at Yi Long Immortal Monarch’s brow.

But in an instant, time and space seemed to freeze.

The Green Reed Sword could not advance an inch further because Yi Long Immortal Monarch had lightly pinched the tip of the sword between two fingers.

In this frozen time and space, however, the Green Reed Sword started to vibrate unusually, with a frequency that was not intense, yet forced him, who had only been focused on Han Yi, to lower his gaze towards the Green Reed Sword in his grasp, and for the first time, a hint of surprise flickered in his eyes.

Immediately, he looked towards a spot ten meters in front of him. Han Yi had just appeared and was about to unleash his Ancient Gods’ power which was on the verge of eruption, but he was restrained in midair, akin to being paused, his gaze the only thing that could change, revealing a look of realization.

“This sword’s current level, though only Second-stage, has an inherently high quality. If I’m not mistaken, it definitely surpasses a Ninth-order Immortal Artifact and ought to be an offshoot of some Tao Artifact,”

“To wield this Immortal Sword, Han Yi might indeed have become assimilated.”

“To assimilate him, it at least proves that the entity behind him is at least an Immortal Venerate, and possibly even an Ancestor.”

“This explains why he possesses the combat power of a Seventh-order Ancient God.”

“Whether he suddenly recovered memories of his past life, received the inheritance of an Immortal Venerate, or awakened an extraordinary comprehension, these are all narratives set in place for the Tao Body.”

“The existence implicated behind Han Yi might even be one of those few in the Immortal Court. This matter is no longer something I can interfere with.”

“Enough.”

Upon this thought, Yi Long Immortal Monarch waved his hand gently, which held the Green Reed Sword, and along with the sword, Han Yi, who was frozen in place, vanished in a flash.

Following closely, Yi Long Immortal Monarch disappeared on the spot. Beneath his feet, the entirety of Nine Yi Mountain began to dissolve into nothingness, symbolizing its retraction into the true Nine Yi Mountain.

Elsewhere.

Han Yi executed the Sword Controlling Immortal Skill and prepared to activate the Ancient Gods’ power for an Ultimate Strike, but while suspended in air, he was immobilized by Yi Long Immortal Monarch. Other than his consciousness, he could not unleash his Physical Body, Immortal Power, or Immortal Sense.

He saw Yi Long Immortal Monarch grasping the Green Reed Sword and felt its vibrations, yet in a single breath, Yi Long Immortal Monarch’s vertical pupils flashed with an indescribable emotion before he waved his hand, and Han Yi found himself sensing a shift in space, leaving the Nine Yi Cave Sky and returning to the Immortal Palace.

Upon his arrival, the surrounding True Immortals all turned their gazes towards him. Among them, several constricted their pupils and their breath hitched, as they had encountered Han Yi on Nine Yi Mountain and had been eliminated from the competition by him.

Whether it was the annihilating Sword Qi or the power of the Ancient Gods, these had all given them the sensation of facing death itself. Of course, under the special rules of Nine Yi Cave Sky, when death loomed, time would pause, and the True Immortals would be expelled and declared eliminated.

Han Yi was aware of these gazes but remained calm. He looked towards the center of the Immortal Palace, at Yi Long Immortal Monarch and the illusory and three-dimensional light and shadow.

At this moment, Yi Long Immortal Monarch’s gaze rested on the light and shadow, with overlapping phantoms within his vertical pupils. In each phantom, there was a version of him standing atop a black Immortal Mountain, effortlessly breaking through an attacking True Immortal’s advances and gauging their combat power.

After three breaths, the illusory three-dimensional light and shadow suddenly faded a fraction. One of the overlapping light and shadow shattered, turning into a phantom, which was then absorbed by Yi Long Immortal Monarch’s vertical pupils.

Simultaneously, a True Immortal suddenly appeared in the Immortal Palace, pausing momentarily in front of a cushion before sitting down.

Han Yi, who was seated on a cushion, watched the arrival of this True Immortal. His gaze flashed because this True Immortal was none other than Xuan Cheng True Immortal.

Xuan Cheng True Immortal glanced at Han Yi, and their calm gazes met; they nodded slightly in acknowledgment before looking away.

At this moment, Xuan Cheng True Immortal felt a twinge of regret, as the six replicas of True Immortals he encountered did not include Han Yi, thwarting his intent to probe Han Yi’s capabilities.

Subsequently, six more True Immortals appeared in the Immortal Palace sequentially. When the third one appeared, Han Yi’s gaze sharpened at the sight of the middle-aged True Immortal who he had battled twice on Nine Yi Mountain.

Whether it was the Spirit Fog Jade Bottle, the Golden Silver Scissors, or the Mysterious Immortal Mirror, they had all made a deep impression on Han Yi.

After these six True Immortals appeared one after another, the center of the Immortal Palace, where the illusory three-dimensional light and shadows were, had already been wholly absorbed into Yi Long Immortal Monarch’s vertical pupils.

Seeing this, Han Yi understood that his initial guess upon entering the Immortal Palace was not entirely wrong.

He had surmised that the illusory light and shadow was an entrance to a Cave Heaven, and it was indeed so. However, this Cave Heaven, or the Nine Yi Cave Sky, could be absorbed by Yi Long Immortal Monarch into his body. Additionally, each person’s Cave Sky space was independent, a reason which he didn’t yet comprehend, but no doubt was a method only a powerful Immortal Monarch could employ.

In the center of the Immortal Palace, Yi Long Immortal Monarch, having gathered all the illusory light and shadows, merged all the phantoms into Unity, sinking them into the depths.
