First Immortal of the Sword-Chapter 1249 - You Refuse to Heed My Advice?

“The old Horned Dragon served the Illusionist. He said he was gathering the crystals under his master’s orders, to help him escape the Divine Kingdom of Illusions,” explained the old pawnbroker.

“So that’s it.” Su Yi thought back to his time as the Temple Master, when he successfully located the entrance to the Divine Kingdom of Illusions, only to discover that it was full of terrifying waves of spatial power. It could have destroyed the body of even a Cosmic Enlightenment World King with ease!

This left him with no choice but to end his journey there. He never got to lay eyes on the true Divine Kingdom of Illusions.

But now, he suddenly understood.

The old Horned Dragon had obviously been gathering Spatial Divine Crystals to create a spatial tunnel and lead the Illusionist out of confinement!

It’s also possible that the entrance has changed since I last visited... thought Su Yi.

It had already been countless years since his last trip to the entrance of the Divine Kingdom of Illusions. He dared not assume that the entrance hadn’t changed.

After chatting a while longer, Su Yi made up his mind. He was going back to the entrance of the Divine Kingdom of Illusions!

“Your Excellency Su, you can’t! Absolutely not!”

The old pawnbroker instantly tensed up. “The Illusionist is most likely not of this era, and it’s highly likely that he really is a descendant of immortals. Even our boss has yet to return. If you go, who knows what perils you’ll face?”

The Starry Abacus and the other Xiantian treasures spoke up too.

Su Yi couldn’t help but feel curious. “Just what is your boss’s cultivation base?”

“Uh....” The old pawnbroker scratched his head. “I don’t know either. She just said that she’s never met an opponent she couldn’t defeat...” novelbuddy. com

Su Yi laughed dryly. “Then why hasn’t she returned from her duel with the Illusionist even after all this time?”

The old pawnbroker was instantly uncomfortable. “This time... might be an exception.”

Su Yi took out the paper crane and passed it to the old pawnbroker. “You hold onto this for now. That way, if I get stuck in the Divine Kingdom of Illusions, your boss won’t need to fear for her life.”

“You really plan to go?” exclaimed the old pawnbroker.

“Your boss and I are acquainted, for better or worse. How could I remain uninvolved now that she’s in trouble?”

Su Yi then turned to Meng Changyun. “You stay here until I return.”

Meng Changyun nodded.

He understood Su Yi’s disposition, and he knew that this time, he couldn’t help at all. The best thing he could do now was refrain from causing additional trouble.

“Wait a moment, Your Excellency Su!” The old pawnbroker turned and fetched a bronze box from the shelves.

“Your Excellency, this contains a jade pendant our boss left here. With it, you might be able to sense her presence.”

The old pawnbroker opened the box, revealing a perfectly round jade pendant that glowed with crimson light. He then proffered it to Su Yi with both hands. freewe bnovel.com

Su Yi took it and looked it over. He couldn’t help but exclaim, “Your boss sure knows how to throw her wealth around. She actually used Phoenix Fire Spirit Jade to make this thing? If certain World King old-timers saw this, they’d surely curse her out for desecrating a heavenly treasure.

Phoenix Fire Spirit Jade was an unparalleled divine material, the kind that could only be happened upon by chance.

Adding even just a tiny bit of it during the refining process let you make a top-class World King Dao Weapon!

Yet now, a palm-sized piece of Phoenix Fire Spirit Jade had been turned into jewelry...

Furthermore, Su Yi could indeed sense a highly distinctive presence within the pendant. It was forceful and tyrannical beyond measure.

This was the characteristic aura of the pawnshop owner.

“After I leave, don’t let any more guests in,” Su Yi softly tapped the Heart-Inquiring Bell.

“Mm!” The Heart-Inquiring Bell straightforwardly agreed.

Su Yi laughed, then put his hands behind his back and emerged from the pawnshop.

It was only after watching him fade from view that the old pawnbroker closed the pawnshop doors.

Without the Heart-Inquiring Bell as a guide, no one could locate the pawnshop, no matter who they were. This was what made it so mysterious.

Even if someone was nearby, the pawnshop was like flowers reflected in a mirror or the moon reflected in water, impossible to approach.

Mist permeated the air. Everything was still and silent.

The old Horned Dragon’s territory was like a forbidden ground!

Off in the distant mists, the bald man manifested of the Blue Demon Bird stared. His eyes widened, and his jaw practically fell off.

Just ten minutes prior, he watched as Dark Monarch Liu Xiang, Old Devil Three Eyes, and Madam Tumi entered the pawnshop.

He also watched those fearless human cultivators recklessly follow them in.

And here the Blue Demon Bird had assumed the two human cultivators were dead beyond a shadow of a doubt.

Yet now, that young man in blue was the first to leave!

And he didn’t have so much as a hair out of place!

“Madam Tumi loves nothing more than using the blood of human cultivators to brew wine. How could she refrain from attacking such a powerful human cultivator?

“And Old Devil Three Eyes hates human cultivators more than anything. He kills them on sight, so why didn’t he attack this time?”

“Something isn’t right here!”

The bald man was still confused when a bloody scene unfolded before him.

Old Devil Three Eyes’ procession had been waiting outside the pawnshop.

When the young man in blue entered, he waved his sleeves, and every yao cultivator in the procession was reduced to ash!

“He actually dared attack Old Devil Three Eyes’ subordinates!?” The bald man broke out in cold sweats.

Wasn’t this human cultivator a bit too terrifying!?

The bald man turned to flee. He dared not linger.

“Stop right there.”

A light, airy voice resounded in the bald man’s ears, but soft as it was, it went off like a thunderclap, skating his heart. His steps came to abrupt halt, and he dared not act recklessly.

Everything shifted before him. The young man in blue now stood right in front of him.

“Since you haven’t left, you can carry me to my next destination,” ordered Su Yi.

The bald man sighed in relief and smiled appeasingly. “I’m honored and flattered to serve as your mount.”

With that, he shifted in place, transforming back into a Blue Demon Bird. “Please have a seat, Your Excellency.”

How could Su Yi bother being polite to a feathered beast? He climbed right onto the bird’s back, took out his wicker chair, and sprawled out.

Whoosh!

The Blue Demon Bird took to the sky, taking Su Yi with him.

Along the way, Su Yi relied on his memories to guide its path.

The more time passed, the less nervous the bird got. Finally, it asked, “Your Excellency, forgive my impudence, but those old monsters...”

Before he could finish his question, Su Yi said distractedly, “They’re dead.”

Dead!?

The Blue Demon Bird’s wings quivered, and his soul practically escaped his body.

All three old monsters were top hegemons of the Dark Sea of Stars, yet now... All of them were dead!?

The Blue Demon Bird’s heart quivered. He was overcome with fright. Just what kind of terrifying existence am I carrying on my back?

As the bird’s thoughts raced, it became even meeker and more obedient.

Enough time to burn a stick of incense later.

Boom!

Rumbling and booming emanated from afar, shaking heaven and earth.

It was visible to the naked eye. Off in the distance, there was a waterfall of pouring light descending from the heavens, eye-catching to the extreme.

That was the power of space and time, and it was boundlessly vast. It distorted its surroundings and filled them with a terrifying aura of destruction.

Even from a distance, the Blue Demon Bird quivered. What kind of hellscape is this!?

The bird had lived in the Dark Sea of Stars for a long, long time, but it was its first time encountering such a forbidden zone.

“Enough. You can drop me off here.” Su Yi put away his wicker chair and shot toward the waterfall.

“Your Excellency, am I permitted to leave?” The Blue Demon Bird rallied its courage and asked.

“Go ahead,” said Su Yi, waving it away without so much as turning to look at it.

Whoosh!

The Blue Demon Bird turned and fled, beating its wings like mad. In the blink of an eye, it had vanished.

It was obviously scared out of its wits.

“This place really is different from when I was last here.”

Before long, Su Yi arrived at that stretch of chaotic, flowing spacetime. He put his hands behind his back as he gazed into the distance.

Boom!

A surging waterfall of time and space created waves, like the shifting of oceanic tides. This left the surrounding area contorted and tumultuous, a vision of collapse and devastation.

It was indistinct, but deep within the spacetime tides, there was the faint, ethereal outline of a doorway.

The entrance to the Divine Kingdom of Illusions!

Unlike before, the tides of space and time were much weaker than before. They weren’t even remotely comparable.

Back then, even standing at a distance, and even at the pinnacle of his strength, the Temple Master sensed a lethal threat assailing him right in the face. He dared not risk it.

But it was different now. The spacetime power had weakened, and even the entrance had solidified, becoming much clearer!

No wonder the Illusionist ordered the Horned Dragon to gather Spatial Divine Crystals. As the tides of space and time weaken, the entrance of the Divine Kingdom of Illusions will fully reappear in the Dark Sea of Stars. That will give him an opportunity to escape, thought Su Yi.

As he pondered, he approached the entrance. Spatial Divine Crystals burned between his fingers. Wisps of spatial power reminiscent of divine flames hovered around him.

This wondrous spatial power neutralized most of the threat the spacetime currents represented.

Suddenly, an aged voice spoke with great difficulty. “Young man, with your cultivation, entering this place is highly unlikely to end well for you. I suggest you stop here.”

Su Yi stopped in his tracks and gazed into the distance.

There, he saw a man seated cross-legged right in the middle of the devastating tides of spatial and temporal power. He was thin, and his hair was disheveled.

The terrifying currents of space and time frequently assailed him, slamming ruthlessly into his body. His skin was split, and his flesh was charred. Many of his bones and tendons had snapped.

But he didn’t move a muscle. He just sat there like a boulder, seemingly unmovable.

When the spacetime power receded, his wounds knit together rapidly, like dried-up trees sprouting new leaves in spring.

It was an extraordinarily startling sight.

He’s using the spacetime tides to temper his flesh and his Dao. This guy... sure is ruthless! Su Yi’s gaze focused. He couldn't help but be surprised.

He could tell at a glance that this thin, unmoving man was only in the late-stage Oneness Realm.

But his willpower and aura were terrifying beyond limit.

He was even superior to some Cosmic Enlightenment World Kings!

He was absolutely an expert!

Even in the top ten star realms, someone like him would have been considered a top-class World King. He had unparalleled foundations and spirit!

A moment later, Su Yi smiled, inclined his head, and said, “Thanks for the warning.”

Then, he looked away and continued ahead.

Off in the distance, the gaunt man frowned. You’re not going to listen?
