Chapter 1205: Chapter 496: Lord of Beimang Mountain, Return to Age Candle_2 Chapter 1205: Chapter 496: Lord of Beimang Mountain, Return to Age Candle_2 Just at this moment.

A point of turquoise spirit light rose from the turquoise butcher’s knife, and as Han Yi’s immortal sense swept over it, he captured the core information within this light.

Inside, it included the introduction of this butcher’s knife and the related method of sacrifice refinement.

“Qingyan Knife.”

“Such a bizarre method of sacrifice refinement.”

Han Yi sneered.

This spirit light introduced the turquoise butcher’s knife in front of him, named the Qingyan Knife, which contained an astonishing legacy from an ancient immortal of ancient times.

And this legacy could be obtained in two ways.

One was through the Yama Picture.

The other was through the method of sacrifice refinement.

Han Yi did not know what the Yama Picture was, but he would certainly not engage in the second method, the method of sacrifice refinement, as it was exceedingly evil.

This method required the slaughter of over ten thousand mortals to begin with, storing their souls in the Qingyan Knife. Then, choosing a certain place, to use the Qingyan Knife as a base, to unfold the Qingyan Realm, also known as the Qingyan Illusion Realm, where these mortal souls would be released, allowed to turn from illusion to reality, to live another life again. Afterwards, when the Qingyan Realm matured, it would then be turned into an illusion once more.

Finally, the Qingyan Realm would be imprinted onto the Qingyan Knife, thereby completing the sacrifice refinement.

This was toying with souls, dominating fate, a method belonging to the category of evil immortals, and naturally, Han Yi would not do it.

However, this Qingyan Knife, unlocked to the status of a fourth-order immortal artifact, even if he could not refine it, was still high-grade and would be needed at some time.

Han Yi stored it into his Qiankun Immortal Ring.

Afterward, he officially stepped into the void, discerned his bearings, and vanished into the southwest direction; this direction was precisely the location of the Daluo Immortal Realm.

…

As Han Yi slew the masked shadow and the Qingyan Knife merged with the mask, in a distant land, within that dark palace.

The Immortal cup trembled, and the gaunt figure re-opened his eyes. Turquoise pupils shone forth, projecting an image in front of him, where unexpectedly appeared exactly the scene the masked shadow had seen.

Seeing Han Yi using the Sword Realm to block the Qingyan Illusion Realm, and in a teleportation, obliterating the shadow, as the image vanished, this gaunt figure’s eyes filled with interest.

“He’s not an immortal from Dharma Origin Sect.”

“To kill the Qingyan Avatar so swiftly, he must have the strength of a Profound Immortal at its peak.”

“Interesting.”

As the gaunt figure thought, a mask below on the wall began to distort and vibrate.

In a moment, the mask broke free from the wall and suspended itself within the dark palace.

Then, the shadows on the mask twisted again, akin to before, ultimately forming a black human silhouette.

Though the style of this mask was the same as the previous, the runes on the face of the mask-person far surpassed the last one, not merely dense but so completely covering the mask that the runes alone were described.

Furthermore, the shadow that had broken free from the mask this time did not kneel before the gaunt figure but instead stretched lazily, his hoarse and intermittent voice coming forth.

“It’s been… so long, so very long since I’ve… since I’ve been out.”

“The taste… the taste of freedom.”

These two sentences were as if he had been imprisoned for countless years and had almost forgotten how to speak. After he spoke them, his tone gradually normalized.

“What… What age is it now?”

“Oh, the eighth age.”

“That means I’ve been asleep for over a hundred thousand years.”

“Never mind, let’s see what the content is this time.”

“Hey, this Immortal Sword barrier is quite strong, able to instantly slay an avatar, that’s interesting.”

“Alright then, I’ll take action personally, surely I’ll capture him effortlessly, kill him, and bring back the Qingyan Knife.”

The gaunt figure remained silent, the shadow chatted nonstop, showing little respect and merely waving his hand before striding out of the dark palace.

Reaching outside the palace, the shadow paused mid-air, looking around at his surroundings and couldn’t help but utter with emotion.

“It’s been too many years since I last emerged.”

“In this epoch, no one remembers me as the Lord of Beimang Mountain anymore. What a sad thing indeed.”

The deep voice came from behind the masked figure’s palace. After hearing it, the figure helplessly waved his hand as if making a compromise and said,

“Alright, alright, within a year, I will definitely get things done and come back.”

Then, he sighed heavily, his figure flickered, and he vanished from the spot.

If the masked figure were to remove his mask, and if a Taiyi Realm Immortal Monarch from Dharma Origin Sect who attained enlightenment in the seventh epoch were present, they would probably recognize that this figure was once the renowned Master of Beimang Mountain.

His realm was at the peak of Golden Immortals, and he was only one step away from becoming a Taiyi Immortal Monarch.

Unfortunately.

By the time the Qingyan Avatar transformed by the Lord of Beimang Mountain reached the edge of the Void, Han Yi’s trail had already been lost.

Standing at the edge of the Void, the Lord of Beimang Mountain sensed the Qingyan Knife and discovered its location was pointing towards the southwest direction of the Void.

“How did this guy run into the Void?”

“No matter, all Qingyan Avatars can only stay within Penglai Immortal Realm and cannot leave it. For now, all I can do is wait.”

The Lord of Beimang Mountain sought out the unnamed mountain range where Han Yi had previously been in seclusion and temporarily concealed himself there.

Meanwhile, Han Yi, who had stepped into the Void, felt a sudden tightness in his heart at a certain moment, as a sense of palpitations emerged within him.

This feeling of palpitations, as if he had become prey, suggested that a hunter had appeared behind him.

As thoughts whirled, he swiftly moved the Qingyan Knife from the Qiankun Immortal Ring into one of his Divine Aperture Worlds, and around that world, he constructed additional Divine Aperture Worlds to ensure the outer world couldn’t sense the Qingyan Knife.

During his time in the Penglai Immortal Realm, aside from killing that butcher in the Miao Lei Region and slaying the masked figure at the edge of the Void, it was unlikely for him to have enmity with anyone else.

The Immortal who pursued him, able to elicit such heart palpitations, must be at the peak of Profound Immortals, or even a Golden Immortal, and not an ordinary one at that.

Although he had now ascended to the rank of Profound Immortal, he hadn’t faced peak Profound Immortals many times, not to mention confronting a Golden Immortal head-on.

Therefore, sensing danger, he quickly suppressed the Qingyan Knife. Previously, he kept it in the Qiankun Immortal Ring mainly out of concern that the bizarre knife still held deeper secrets.

But at this moment, he couldn’t afford to think too much about it.

Following that.

He quickened his pace, fleeing towards the southwest direction of the Void. As he moved further away from Penglai Immortal Realm, the sense of crisis behind him grew weaker and weaker.

Two months later.

By the time he stepped into the Daluo Immortal Realm, that sense of crisis had completely disappeared.

At this point, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

In fact.

What Han Yi didn’t know was that his current location in the Immortal Realm was almost identical to the place where he left the realm after completing the task given by Linghua Immortal Monarch on behalf of the Righteous Palace when he was only at the Nascent Soul Realm during the seventh epoch.

Back then, he was merely a small Nascent Soul Realm cultivator, but now, after several journeys, he had returned as a Profound Immortal.

Three days later.

Han Yi crossed several Immortal Domains and finally entered the territory of the Age Candle Immortal Court. This time he came from the north and headed straight for the Original Art Dojo.

Speaking of which.

His reason for going to the Outer Domain Battlefield was to intercept the invasion from the Wisdom Realm, not to mount an expedition to it.

Han Yi wasn’t sure how many in the Immortal Court were aware of this, so he didn’t go to the Sky Candle Palace or the Righteous Palace but headed directly to the Original Art Field to find the Original Art Immortal Monarch, who was in cultivation.

This was the highest-ranking person he could contact in the Age Candle Immortal Court so far, and since the Original Art Immortal Monarch had been friendly to him before, Han Yi chose to inform him first about the expedition to the Wisdom Clan, the battlefield between the two realms, the numerous Immortal Monarchs, Immortal Venerates, and even the Ancestor.

In the central position of the Original Art Dojo, within a three-story tower,

Han Yi shared the details of his journey with the Original Art Immortal Monarch.

The expedition to the Wisdom Realm, the fall of the Bull Demon King, the disintegration of numerous Immortal Castles, the Kunpeng Demon Sovereign, Ziwei Immortal Venerate, Xuanhui Immortal Sovereign, Zhurong Ancient Immortal, Haotian Immortal Sovereign, Grand Martial Immortal Sovereign, the Wisdom Saint of the Wisdom Clan, the Heavenly Lord, Giant Spirit God King, Mechanical Divine Warship, and so on.

In his simple words, he unveiled the astonishing scenes of the war between the two realms.

As for his incredible feat of snatching Life Seeds from the Mechanical Divine Warship and then encountering Li Qiankun, Han Yi did not elaborate but merely mentioned being saved by a powerful Immortal, who took him to the Penglai Immortal Realm, where he underwent the Profound Immortal Calamity, and only then was he able to return to the Age Candle.

After listening to Han Yi’s account, the Original Art Immortal Monarch’s face showed a look of shock.
