Urban Undying Lord
Chapter 314 - 314 313 Return to the Human World

314: Chapter 313: Return to the Human World 314: Chapter 313: Return to the Human World Ye Xuan was in seclusion within Weiyang Palace, a fact well-known to all.

When the various Demon Kings received Ye Xuan’s summoning message, they were immediately taken aback and dared not delay, hastening towards Weiyang Palace.

Weiyang Palace!

Clad in a black Daoist robe, Ye Xuan’s raven hair fell behind his head, and a faint Luotian Immortal Light glimmered around him.

When his eyes opened and closed, it was as if the sun, moon, and stars orbited within them, invoking a sense of mystery and elusiveness in those who beheld him.

The Heavenly Peng King, adorned in silver battle armor, was none other than the Marshal of the Heavenly Canopy, commanding a hundred thousand of the Heavenly River’s Water Army and also the one with the highest cultivation by Ye Xuan’s side.

“Emperor, may I ask why you have summoned us?” the Heavenly Peng King inquired, obviously sensing that Ye Xuan must have an extremely important matter to disclose since he had called them here.

“I have some matters that require my departure from the Heavenly Court.

However, the Heavenly Court has many eyes and ears, and should I not preside over it, I fear that some may cause trouble,” Ye Xuan said calmly.

Upon hearing Ye Xuan’s words, the faces of the Demon Kings subtly changed.

They knew that if Ye Xuan were to leave, they would lose their pillar of support.

With the intricate power dynamics of the Heavenly Court, and given that these Demon Kings were already viewed with wariness by the Group of Immortals, any disturbance could lead to an uncontrollable situation.

“Emperor, what is the matter that necessitates your personal attention?”

“Although I am merely a Taiyi Golden Immortal and not particularly brilliant, I am willing to share the Emperor’s burdens,” the Snake Demon King said with a turn of his eyes, bowing respectfully towards Ye Xuan.

“Indeed, Emperor.

We are all here because you brought us into the Heavenly Court.

Should you depart, it may lead to significant upheaval.

If you are willing, whatever the matter, we can handle it on your behalf.

Why burden yourself with such an effort?” The Heavenly Peng King expressed his support as well.

The various Demon Kings nodded in agreement, not necessarily out of undying loyalty to Ye Xuan, but because their fates were tied to his.

Should Ye Xuan leave the Heavenly Court, they too would lose their only support.

Looking at the earnest expressions of the Demon Kings, Ye Xuan naturally understood their concerns.

However, he needed to return to the Human World, and obviously, he could not let the Demon Kings know of this.

After all, he was not a native of the Earth Immortal Realm but had become an Immortal in the Human World.

Should this news get out, it would undoubtedly bring him unimaginable trouble.

“Rest assured, it will be no more than a hundred years at most, or perhaps only ten at least.

I shall return to the Heavenly Court.

During this time, you need to stay in line and avoid any conflicts with other Immortals,” he stated decisively.

As Ye Xuan declared his decision, the Demon Kings wanted to persuade him otherwise but knew that Ye Xuan was a man of his word and refrained from speaking.

They only hoped for Ye Xuan’s swift return.

On this day, Weiyang Palace garnered the attention of the Heavenly Court’s Immortals, for Ye Xuan was Emperor Dongji, commanding dozens of Demon Kings and forming a power within the Heavenly Court that could not be underestimated.

Any commotion at Weiyang Palace naturally caused the Group of Immortals to take notice.

A day passed, and the Demon Kings departed from Weiyang Palace.

Meanwhile, a rumor emerged from within Weiyang Palace—that Emperor Dongji would be in seclusion for a hundred years, and during this century, he would receive no visitors, regardless of who they were.

When the Jade Emperor and the Group of Immortals heard this news, it did not seem strange to them.

After all, it was common for Immortals to enter seclusion, and a hundred years was but a fleeting moment in the endless lives of the Immortals.

Yet, no one knew that at this moment, Ye Xuan’s presence was no longer within Weiyang Palace; he had silently descended to the Lower Realm, preparing to return to the Human World.

In the Primordial Spirit Void, situated between the illusory and the real, Ye Xuan walked through ten thousand miles of fierce wind, thunder, and flames as if no one else was present.

Crossing the ten thousand miles of fierce elements led to the vast and boundless Earth Immortal Realm.

Under the clear sky and the blazing high sun,

Ye Xuan took a step forward, and the secret technique of the Somersault Cloud was deployed, instantly covering a distance of one hundred and eight thousand miles.

Satisfied with the extreme speed his technique afforded him.

In the two hundred years of his latest seclusion and cultivation, Ye Xuan’s cultivation hadn’t improved significantly, which made him aware that such dedicated cultivation in seclusion did not contribute much to his progress.

However, these two hundred years of secluded cultivation were not spent in vain by Ye Xuan.

Heavenly Gang Thirty-Six Transformations, Earthly Fiend Seventy Two Transformations, Somersault Cloud — Ye Xuan had mastered all three of these grand Taoist Divine Powers.

Even though Ye Xuan possessed the Undying Immortal Scripture and was not lacking in Immortal Technique and secret techniques, as the saying goes, “One can never have too many skills.” Moreover, Ye Xuan wanted to see if there would be a qualitative improvement when the Heavenly Gang Thirty-Six Transformations and the Earthly Fiend Seventy Two Transformations were combined.

The Heavenly Gang Thirty-Six Transformations were acquired from the Heavenly Court Treasury, whereas the Earthly Fiend Seventy Two Transformations were learned after Ye Xuan devoured Bai Hong’s Cultivation Dao Fruit, naturally obtaining the other’s Divine Power.

In the Heavenly Vault,

Ye Xuan displayed the one hundred and eight transformations, morphing into various mysterious and mystical things, faintly merging with the Heavenly Dao, even the speed at which the immortal power within him circulated was faster than before, which immensely pleased Ye Xuan.

With the spell concluded, Ye Xuan didn’t linger any further, and he surged directly towards the location of the Reverse Passage.

The Reverse Passage connected the Earth Immortal Realm with the Human World.

In that distant past, the Human World was known as the Exile Land, where all Immortals bearing serious crimes were thrown into the Reverse Passage to fend for themselves.

But ever since the Ancient battle with Yuan Mo, the Reverse Passage had been sealed by a Group of Immortals and long forgotten as an exile place.

After Ye Xuan entered the Earth Immortal Realm, to hide his identity, he cast a spell to conceal the gateway of the Reverse Passage, so as not to expose himself.

Eastern Continent, unnamed mountain range.

Following the memories in his mind, Ye Xuan appeared there, forming Immortal Techniques with his hands.

As the Immortal Light rolled out, the gateway to the Reverse Passage also appeared before Ye Xuan.

A swirling black hole vortex resonated in the void, and without hesitation, Ye Xuan stepped into the Reverse Passage, disappearing from the Earth Immortal Realm.

All around was emptiness, filled with Spiritual Energy.

As Ye Xuan proceeded along the Reverse Passage toward the Human World, a fleeting glance of light passed through the depths of his eyes, and memories of yesteryears came flooding back.

Five hundred years ago,

he had fought a desperate battle with a Primordial Spirit; back then, there wasn’t an iota of Spiritual Energy within the Reverse Passage.

Yet, five hundred years had passed, and not only was the Reverse Passage now filled with rich Spiritual Energy, but he had also ascended to the realm of the Luotian Mystic Immortal.

The seas had changed to mulberry fields, time had transformed.

Ye Xuan didn’t know what the Human World had become after five hundred years.

Whether his mother and younger sister were still in the Human World?

Is the Netherworld still existing eternally?

Those once loyal subordinates, what Cultivation level had they reached after five hundred years?

Halted the rampage of the Blood Soul Strange Beasts from ancient times, or has humanity already perished?

Ye Xuan’s thoughts were a myriad, lost in the long memories, while in front of him a Light Gate also made its appearance before his eyes at this moment.

Gathering his thoughts and maintaining a tranquil mind, regardless of what state the Human World was in, it was still the land that had raised him.

Although he was returning to the Human World this time due to the shattering of the Bloodthirsty Demon Sword, he planned to investigate.
