Shrouding the Heavens

Chapter 145 - 146 Heaven-Shattering

146: Heaven-Shattering 146: Heaven-Shattering Editor: Atlas Studios The Bronze Immortal Palace was the Eastern Wastelands’ greatest enigma.

According to legend it was made by an Immortal, but it was impossible to confirm this.

It had appeared long before the Ancient Desolation, and there was no one who truly knew its origins.

Ye Fan’s decision was heaven-shattering.

He had only revealed this secret in order to create an opportunity for him to leave.

He expected that once this news transmitted out, there would inevitably enormous waves shaking this land.

But at this point he couldn’t take that into consideration.

Ji Ziyue’s beautiful eyes opened wide.

She had tried to transmit something to him to stop him but it was too lat.e Ye Fan had to do this to look out for himself.

“Little brat, you really know how to do things.

Do you know the results that will occur once this news passes out?

Didn’t we already agree to keep this secret?” Ji Ziyue angrily glared at Ye Fan who was not paying attention to her, tightly clenching her fists and wishing to go beat him a couple times.

Ye Fan spoke in great detail, telling them everything he knew.

It was right beside the Taixuan Sect so they could go verify for themselves easily.

There was nothing he could do about it.

This was all in order for him to be able to flee with his life, so for now he could only ignore Ji Ziyue.

“IS this really true?” The Flickering Ligth sacred lady was shocked.

Standing up, her jade-like body shined, enveloped by a gentle light, looking like an exiled immortal overlooking the world.

“You’re sure?!” Hua Yunfei was unable to maintain his calm, suddenly standing up and gazing at Ye Fan.

“Ziyue, is this really true?” Ji Haoyue looked at his own younger sister.

He knew the two of them had always been together for this period of time.

Everyone wasn’t convinced by just Ye Fan, so they all looked at Ji Ziyue.

By now there was no way she could keep this secret so she nodded.

“This is a huge matter!

Why didn’t you say anything sooner?” Ji Haoyue rebuked her.

“It’s not like this is a good thing.

Every time the Bronze Immortal Palace appears, many people will die.

In order to prevent blood from shedding, I thought it was better to keep this quietly hidden,” Ji Ziyue quietly muttered.

“I forgot to tell you, there’s also a lot of Xuanhuan there, as thick as clouds and as heavy as mountains…” Ye Fan was very thorough, once more bringing up another important piece of information.

“What, there’s Origin Qi there?” “That’s a sacred material for refining Vessels!” Everyone shouted in alarm, their eyes bulging.

Xuan as the essence of the heavens, Huang as the essence of the earth.

Together, Xuanhuan was the very essence of heaven and earth, and thus Black represented the heavens and yellow represented the earth.

“Are you sure?” Jua Yunfei was unable to recollect himself, drifting over and staring at Ye fan, once more seriously asking.

“Of course, I personally saw it.” Ye Fan confirmed it without doubt.

“Where is that lake?” The Flickering Light sacred lady’s eyes shined with extraordinary light.

The others all circled around him.

The beginning of heaven and earth had started with overflowing essence, Xuanhuan.

The amount leftover now was pitifully little, practically completely exhausted.

Peak experts would all be most attracted to it, as it was a rare treasure for refining Vessels.

Although the Bronze Immortal Palace was shocking to them, it was still somewhat ephemeral and out of reach.

Even if they obtained this news, all they could do was inform their superiors and let their Head Elders and Grand Elders decide what to do.

The so-called chance to achieve Immortality was far out of their reach.

However, the Origin Qi was not the same.

This was a rare treasure, a sacred material for refining Vessels.

If they could collect it they would benefit from it throughout their entire lives.

All of them had blazing eyes, all wanting to refine a peak peerless weapon.

“What are you doing you black-hearted brat.

You’re victimizing people!” Ji Ziyue was very sharp, secretly transmitting to Ye Fan, “You should know that the Origin Qi has already retreated back to the bronze palace.

Why would you tell them?” Ji Ziyue had failed to gain any of the Origin Qi essence from Ye Fan, so she had gone many times to that small lake to try and gather the Xuanhuan.

Although she made a big harvest, she found that the Xuanhuan had disappeared back into the palace and was not gatherable anymore.

All of these people retreated and went to their personal superior masters.

They had come with their sects’ ancestors, and this news was simply too huge.

Even people like Ji Haoyue, the Flickering Light sacred lady, and Hua Yunfei were unqualified to make such a decision on their own, so they hurriedly left.

Ji Ziyue was extremely bright.

She wrinkled her nose, angrily pulling on Ye Fan and saying, “What are you doing?!” “Don’t be angry.

You’ll get wrinkles.” Ye Fan smiled, pinching her nose.

“Little brat, your guts have grown too big today.” She was just about to put Ye Fan back in his place.

“Hurry and bring out your precious items out.

I’ll give you the Origin Qi essence.” Ye Fan quietly transmitted.

“What?!” Ji Ziyue was very amazed, her eyes flashing with light.

She had already gone to the lake and gathered Origin Qi, but it was far from comparable to Origin Qi essence.

Only the Origin Qi’s ‘foundation’ was able to truly refine a legendary Vessel into a peak weapon.

She had threatened and entreated him hundreds of times, but Ye Fan had never given her the Origin Qi’s ‘foundation.’ She didn’t expect he would actually give it to her now.

Although Ye Fan felt that Ji Ziyue was a bit weird, he didn’t think she was a bad person.

Actually, she had been defending him over these few days.

Now that he was about to leave, he felt somewhat guilty to her and decided to give her the Origin Qi essence that was a truly rare treasure to cultivators.

Although he could control the Origin Qi and was only about to bring a small amount of it to the surface of his body, Ji Ziyue had a secret treasure on her body that was able to draw it into her hands.

“Wow, it really is Origin Qi essence!” Having obtained the ‘foundation’ of the Origin Qi, her eyes lit up and she smiled, her small dimple once more appearing.

“Cultivate properly and surpass your big brother…” Ye Fan rubbed her head, then turning his head and left.

“I have things to do and I’m going to return to Zhuo Peak.” Ji Ziyue was exceptionally smart, long since sensing Ye Fan’s strangeness.

For no apparent reason he had brought up the Bronze Immortal Palace.

After thinking about, she immediately thought of the reason.

“Little brat, you don’t need to run…” She quickly chased after him.

Ye Fan had recently been studying the old madman’s footwork and although he hadn’t reached the point he could take one step to put endless mountains behind him, his speed was still at an inconceivable level.

This was a supreme secret art after all.

Ji Ziyue’s cultivation base might be higher, but she was unable to catch up and she was shaken off in an instant.

Ye Fan could vaguely hear her shout, “Little brat, don’t go…” He sighed, not looking back.

His strength was no good at this point, all he could do was flee.

Passing by Zhuo Peak, he saw Li Ruoyu standing at the mountain peak gazing towards him.

Ye Fan was a bit hesitate, but in the end he decided to fly up.

He believed in this old man.

After giving him this many instructions, he didn’t want to just silently leave.

Flying onto Zhuo Peak’s summit, he bowed deeply.

“Are you about to leave?” asked Li Ruoyu.

Ye Fan nodded.

“Then go.

Each person has their own personal Dao.” The old man didn’t say much.

He had great wisdom about cultivation.

After comprehending Zhuo Peak’s Dao, he was definitely not ordinary anymore.

Ye Fan thought about it and brought out the pure jade bottle, pouring some of the spring water and sealing it into a jade container, handing it to Li Ruoyu.

“Many thanks senior.

It is time for me to take my leave.” Ye Fan stepped across the void, using the old madman’s secret art to disappear into the distance like a ray of light.

Other than Ji Ziyue and Li Rouyu, another person had guessed Ye Fan was about to leave.

If it was about who understood Ye Fan the best, then it would definitely be Li Xiaoman.

Although they hadn’t had contact for several years, as soon as she heard him bring up the Bronze Immortal Palace she had guessed his motive.

Seeing him flash into the distance, she immediately understood Ye Fan was preparing to flee.

Ye fan didn’t pause at all, his golden Sea of Bitterness surging, lightning and thunder interweaving, using all of his divine energy in using the secret footwork.

He quickly left the Taixuan Sect behind him.

As for the old madman, he wasn’t that worried for him.

After several tens of thousands of kilometers, he finally paused.

To fly to the northern region of the Eastern Wastelands required him to waste several years worth of time.

During that time he would be unable to cultivate and it would be a completely waste.

Ye Fan was unable to accept this.

“Could it be there’s no other method?” He sighed.

The Eastern Wastelands was simply too large.

This area was just a corner of the southern region.

The distance to the northern region was absolutely incalculable.

Only when he stopped did Ye Fan learn how great the waves he had caused.

It was heaven-shattering!

In just the space of these couple days, the news that the Bronze Immortal Palace had appeared in the world passed everywhere.

By means of Domain Gates, the Eastern Wastelands’ supreme powers sent many people over.

Many powerful figures were disturbed.

Over the next few days, it was completely unstable.

Every single direction received news of this and was shocked.

It wasn’t just the human race’s powerful experts coming; even the dmon race’s famous ancestors were hurrying over.

Amongst them, many were existences that hadn’t been seen in many years, powerful figures that constantly stayed in seclusion.

However the most shocking pieces of news came today.

An almighty member of the human race who was rumored to have died five hundred years ago reappeared again in the Taixuan Sect – Nan Gongzheng.

And another shocking piece was that an almighty member of the Eastern Wastelands southern region’s demon race who had swept through the land eight hundred years ago had also appeared within Wei – the Peacock King.

Achieving Immortality was the dream of countless peak experts, their lifelong goal.

But from ancient times to now, just how many people had managed to take that step?

Ancient texts mentioned that there were some people suspected to have achieved Immortality, but there was no conclusive evidence, causing countless peak peerless figures to feel as the path in front of them was uncertain.

Many years had passed, and one arrogant great figure after another appeared before turning back into yellow soil.

The word ‘Immortality’ seemed to become more and more remote.

Just like the winter’s wind and the starless nights, Immortality caused people to feel cold and dark, completely hopeless.

Within the long history of the Eastern Wastelands, there were quite a few shockingly talented figures who were absolute kings within their portion of history, but in the end only becoming withered bones.

In that distant past, there were several huge figures whose power was astonishing, but still unable to escape the grasp of death.

Powerful figures like the previous Demon Emperor existed whose desire was higher than the sky, capable of looking down on everyone, a person who was the sole supreme within their generation.

Just how huge was the Eastern Wastelands?

The demon race was spread far and wide, but it was joined together by this single Great Emperor.

The Demon Emperor desired to form the demon clan’s celestial court, a supreme undertaking.

However, after the impact of time, his great ambition turned up empty.

He died once more returning to the dust.

From ancient times to now, the Eastern Wastelands had had legends that the Bronze Immortal Palace held a hope for achieving Immortality.

For peerless figures who could look down on the world, it naturally had a fatal enticement.

Existences like Nan Gongzheng and the Peacock King appearing was not even surprising.
