Longevity Clan Starts with the Patriarch’s Marriage-Chapter 788

Chapter 788: Chapter 299: The Destiny Dice, Eternal Ark, Immortal Emperor Tai Xuan_2 Chapter 788: Chapter 299: The Destiny Dice, Eternal Ark, Immortal Emperor Tai Xuan_2 “I’ve come a step too late.”

As something crossed his mind, his brows relaxed, and a smile surfaced on his face, “But it’s not without gain, at least it has truly allowed me to witness this legendary treasure.”

The towering figure did not pursue further, standing rooted to the spot, lost in memories.

This warship was the legendary Xuantian treasure, known as the Eternal Ark, rumored to have been created for the purpose of crossing over existence itself.

The Eternal Ark was said to come from a time immemorial, akin to Dadao Palace, both connected to that expeditionary Emperor of Mortal Clan.

Before his long journey, the Emperor of Mortal Clan had crafted the Eternal Ark, entrusting it into the care of someone he trusted, before leading the forces of the Heavenly Court on his expedition.

Many years later, a war erupted across all of time and space, its shockwaves reaching far and wide, awakening those in hibernation.

The awakened being immediately activated the Eternal Ark, intending to carry all beings of the Eternal World to escape, to traverse the void, to leap across time and space, to cross the Bitter Sea, and to reach the far shore.

As the Eternal Ark struggled to cross the Bitter Sea, an accident occurred, and it failed to withstand the tumultuous waters, sinking into the depths of the Bitter Sea.

...

The Eternal World, which it carried, was subsequently scattered across the Bitter Sea and shattered by the aftershocks of the great war, causing the Eternal Ark to disappear.

But in ancient times, the Eternal Ark appeared several times within the Ancient Eternal Realm, witnessed and recorded by certain special beings, confirming the reality of the legend.

Therefore, the towering figure coveted the Eternal Ark.

For the Eternal Ark was a Xuantian supreme treasure, that is, a fourth-step weapon.

The Dadao Palace that occasionally appears during each tribulation period is also a fourth-step weapon, a Xuantian supreme treasure.

However, the Dadao Palace still has a Dao spirit guarding it fiercely, refusing to reveal anything; no one dares to covet it.

Quasi Immortal Emperors and Immortal Emperors who entertained such thoughts have all perished.

The Eternal Ark, on the other hand, seems to lack a Dao spirit.

It’s uncertain whether its Dao spirit is in slumber or was annihilated back then, leading to the Ark remaining uncontrolled.

Even without its Dao spirit now, the Eternal Ark is still a Xuantian supreme treasure, an invincible fourth-step weapon; forcefully seizing it is impossible.

Although the towering figure is extremely powerful, regarded as one of the ten strongest Immortal Emperors across the myriad realms, he wouldn’t dare to clash head-on with a fourth-step weapon—it would be courting death.

“It seems my plan is beginning to bear fruit,” said the towering figure to himself, his eyes twinkling.

He was almost certain that the sudden appearance of the Eternal Ark in the Tai Chu Realm was drawn here by him.

Given the particularity of the Eternal Ark, in the absence of a Dao spirit’s control, it only appears in certain special seas, such as the Cosmic Sea, Reincarnation Ocean, Origin Sea, Dao Ocean, etc., within the myriad realms—each of these seas possessing similar natures, only differing in the Daos they involve.

The universe encompasses all space, the cosmos spans all time; Cosmic Sea is hence the Space Ocean.

The last sighting of the Eternal Ark traces back to over a hundred tribulation periods ago, appearing in the Origin Sea, a part of one of the most powerful worlds within the Ancient Eternal Realm.

The towering figure had long been paying attention to the Eternal Ark but had not made a move, waiting for a change of circumstances.

After freeing himself, he slowly set his plans into motion, and not long ago, roughly a hundred epochs previously, he discovered a potential method to attract the Eternal Ark.

So, he began to experiment, exhibiting immense patience.

For just over a hundred epochs already, he started to see results; everything was worthwhile.

If he could board the Eternal Ark, he would have the chance to control it through a special method.

Then, he would be the strongest being across the myriad realms, truly invincible, pushing aside all, and suppressing the myriads.

Even if he failed, as long as he could acquire something from the Eternal Ark, he could hope to advance a half-step forward, becoming a “Quasi Fourth Step,” still unbeatable in force.

Although he covets the Eternal Ark greatly, he had not rushed onto it previously, for he dared not, and there’s nothing wrong with admitting that.

On one hand, he feared the Eternal Ark; on the other, he feared the fog of spacetime—one of the most terrifying dangers of the Cosmic Sea, with no equal.

Only a fourth-step weapon like the Eternal Ark could treat it as flat ground.

If he followed blindly into it, the possibility of becoming lost was real.

As the proverb goes, the wise learn from the misfortunes of others.

The towering figure had to be cautious.

Now that the Eternal Ark has arrived at the Tai Chu Realm’s Cosmic Sea, it proves that his method is feasible.

From now on, there is no fear of losing track of the Eternal Ark.

He can plan slowly, for he possesses immense patience and endless time to bide.

Suddenly, the towering figure’s brows furrowed slightly as he looked towards the distant Cosmic Sea,

A flash of immortal light passed, and a massive figure in purple-gold attire stepped forward, immediately spotting the towering figure in the distance and directly asking,

“Longhan, I heard that the Eternal Ark has appeared in the Cosmic Sea, is that true?”

The towering figure was none other than Emperor Longhan of the previous dynasty, who had been lurking in the depths of the Cosmic Sea, plotting.

At those words, his gaze flickered before he spoke the truth, “That’s correct.”

“Taixuan, shouldn’t you be staying in your Land of the Supreme Heaven, daring to come out?

Aren’t you afraid of being hunted by the five emperors?”

Longhan Immortal Emperor was taken aback, giving Emperor Longhan a deep look.

He hadn’t expected Emperor Longhan to admit so readily.

“Longhan, the five emperors are nothing to worry about, as you know, the real threats are the Yuan Emperor and the Chiming Heavenly Emperor.”

“Compared to me, you are probably the one the five emperors, as well as the Yuan Emperor and the Chiming Heavenly Emperor, most want to kill,” said Longhan Immortal Emperor with a smile.

Emperor Longhan remained expressionless.

He knew that what Longhan Immortal Emperor was saying was true.

Longhan Immortal Emperor was merely the master of a prohibited area.

Although he had grievances with the Crimson Heaven Court, the prohibited area had extensive connections that were not easily provoked.

In contrast, as a former Emperor of Heaven, as long as he was alive, the Chiming Heavenly Emperor, Yuan Emperor, Ming Emperor, Black Emperor, Green Emperor, White Emperor, and Crimson Emperor—these seven Immortal Emperors—would rest uneasy.

If they knew where his true body was, they would no doubt come to kill him.

Seeing Emperor Longhan remain silent, Longhan Immortal Emperor did not continue this topic and instead probed, “Longhan, since the Eternal Ark has appeared, why haven’t you tried to storm it?”

Emperor Longhan let out a cold laugh and said indifferently, “I dare not board it; if you saw it, would you dare to?”

Longhan Immortal Emperor smiled without answering, but inside, he was gauging Emperor Longhan’s strength.

After a while, Longhan Immortal Emperor cheerfully said, “Longhan, since the Eternal Ark has vanished, I’ll take my leave.”

“You’re not being seen out.”

Emperor Longhan’s tone was cold as he watched Longhan Immortal Emperor disappear.

His eyes flashed, a snort escaped him, and murder flickered in his heart.

Longhan Immortal Emperor’s visit was probably not just to confirm the whereabouts of the Eternal Ark.

If it weren’t for the fact that Longhan Immortal Emperor was not weak, and he wasn’t sure he could suppress him quickly, Emperor Longhan would have made his move long ago.

Later, Emperor Longhan glanced at a certain place in the Cosmic Sea and vanished from where he stood.

After a while, two streaks of immortal light descended, with two Immortal Emperors arriving, tracing cause and effect, backtracking time, but to no avail.

In the depths of the Cosmic Sea, where time and space were chaotic and disordered, even the Immortal Emperors could not backtrack through time, and cause and effect were disturbed as well.

On an island deep within the Cosmic Sea, the figure of Emperor Longhan appeared with a sword scabbard at his side that held no Immortal Sword, and on the other side, there was a tripod furnace enveloped by countless specks of light.

Emperor Longhan, across endless time and space, glanced back at the two Immortal Emperors who had arrived, snorted coldly, but reined in his killer intent.

He looked at the inserted sword scabbard, pondered for a while, sighed, and thought that it had not been long since he last harvested, and to harvest again would require waiting over two hundred million years.

Emperor Longhan then looked towards the tripod furnace beside him; the furnace blazed fiercely, and within it was an Immortal Sword being forged, with only the hilt slightly sticking out.

Emperor Longhan stood with his hands behind his back, his thoughts somewhat drifting as he mused to himself, “What is Guanghan’s soul incarnation doing in the Yuankun Domain?

Did it discover something?”

Emperor Longhan’s thoughts raced as he considered using great mana to disperse the fog enveloping the Yuankun Domain, but hesitated and then decided against it.

He did not want any complications.

The people of the Crimson Heaven Court had been searching for him incessantly, and the Yuankun Domain had long been locked down by them, but the sword scabbard isolating the Yuankun Domain was not the true scabbard of his Bingtian Emperor Sword.

It was a reflection he had created through some heaven-defying Divine Skill.

This had its advantages and disadvantages: the Crimson Heaven Court could not trace him, but he also couldn’t effectively interfere with the Yuankun Domain, especially under the deliberate interference of a peak Immortal Emperor.
