The Immortal's Wine Store-Chapter 549: The Greatest Mystery

Jiu Shen eyed Lao Gou like a wolf staring at its prey.

He has been holding back his power all this time.

This was the perfect opportunity to test the extent of his abilities, so he decided to play with Lao Gou for a little while.

They might have the same level of cultivation, but the difference in their physique and techniques would eventually be revealed as their battle continues.

Jiu Shen was confident that he could overpower Lao Gou!

The insanity in Lao Gou's eyes lessened as he forcefully quelled his Heart Demon using his spiritual power.

This was only a temporary measure since Heart Demons were very difficult to remove.

"Jiu Shen, you were only a Heavenly God Realm back then, but I envied you... I have everything that anyone could only dream of, but there was one thing that I couldn't get..." Lao Gou revealed a look of melancholy as he recalled a beautiful image.

A woman with perfect facial features and otherworldly grace.

Jiu Shen went silent when he saw Lao Gou acting like this. He didn't think that such a man would show a mortal-like expression. Even so, Jiu Shen's gaze remained cold as he quietly listened.

"She was perfect... I've liked her for a long time, but no matter what I did, she never reciprocated my feelings... It was then that I discovered the reason! It's because of you! I'll fucking kill you!"

ROOARR!!

Once again consumed by his Heart Demons, Lao Gou swiped his guandao, causing the space around him to tear apart!

Chaotic energies fluctuated intensely like a raging storm!

CLAANGG!

Jiu Shen calmly blocked the golden spear with his sword, the archaic carvings on the Baleful Dragon Sacred Sword's body were giving off a faint golden glow.

Lao Gou was thrown away when their weapons clashed and he stabilized himself by somersaulting in midair. He nimbly stood on top of the clouds as he stared at Jiu Shen's figure. The man remained calm and even his white robes was still spotlessly clean.

On the other hand, Lao Gou lowered his head and saw that his hands were slightly trembling from the violent impact of their strikes.

He couldn't accept that Jiu Shen has overtaken his power after a million years of being gone. Lao Gou's eyes slowly became calm.

He lifted his head and said. "Jiu Shen, I've been wondering all this time... How were you reborn? The God Sealing Tower can even seal a Celestial's soul, so how could your soul escape from its clutches when you were only a Heavenly God Realm at that time?"

Facing the sudden question from his rival, Jiu Shen also began to ask himself. How did he escape the God Sealing Tower? "I died at that time. As to how I escape from the God Sealing Tower..." Jiu Shen shook his head, feeling puzzled.

Lao Gou frowned and stared at the skies. He muttered silently. "It seems like that man has also chosen you... If it's him... it should be possible."

Jiu Shen furrowed his eyebrows upon hearing his words. "What are you saying?"

Lao Gou turned his gaze towards Jiu Shen and gave him a cold smile. "Do you really think Celestial God Realm is the end of cultivation?! Fool! I've seen it! I've seen the power that goes beyond the realm of the Celestials! A power so strong that he could stop the destruction of a crumbling Spirit World!"

"This guandao..." Lao Gou glanced at his weapon and continued.

"I received this from him inside that Spirit World... Not even the blacksmiths of the old era are capable of making this weapon... If it's him, your revival isn't impossible, but why did he revive you?! Why?!"

Lao Gou screamed like an enraged lion. He pointed the tip of his guandao towards Jiu Shen and summoned a thousand spells.

Brilliant rays of deadly light flashed towards Jiu Shen.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Multiple explosions echoed as the ground was struck by the torrent of lights.

Hundreds of deep craters littered the once beautiful city.

Broken buildings and collapsed houses can be seen everywhere. Some weaker civilians even died during their battle. Luckily, a few benevolent experts living in the city evacuated the survivors.

At this moment, there are only a few stranded people that remained in Celestial City. It was only a matter of time before they would die from the aftermath of the ferocious battle...

BAANG!

BOOOM!

CLANG! CLANG! CLANG!

Above the clouds, Jiu Shen and Lao Gou had already exchanged thousands of moves. Their movements were swift and only their afterimages could be faintly seen.

Jiu Shen was still thinking about the words that Lao Gou has spoken.

Celestial God Realm wasn't the end of cultivation? A person whose power goes beyond the Celestials?

When he thought deeply about these words, Jiu Shen began to suspect who this person was. Why did he give Lao Gou a Celestial-rank guandao? And is it true that he was revived by this person?

It was absurd, but Jiu Shen believed that it might be possible. The strange system, the unending number of Celestial-rank items, his mysterious revival...

He had so many questions, but the only one who could possibly answer him at this moment was the crazy old man in front of him.

"Wait!" Jiu Shen casually deflected a spear strike and flew a distance away.

"There is one such place that three Celestials failed to go..." Jiu Shen said while looking at his rival.

Lao Gou lowered down his guandao and scoffed in disdain. "Are you talking about the Three Towers of Divine Dao? So you've finally realized it, huh? That's right! I suspect that the one who gave me this weapon lives in that floating city. I tried flying to that place, but I couldn't even reach halfway. Perhaps all our questions would be answered after we reach that place."

Three Towers of Divine Dao. The floating city that has become the greatest mystery in the Primordial God Realm. Many tried to fly straight into this mysterious floating city, but everyone failed. No one knew what this place was or who lives in it.
