24 Chapter 127: Be my Treasure Hunting Rat; Countless Opportunities In The Ancient Immortal Continent.

In the blink of an eye, three days had passed.

In the depths of the Heavenly Dao Immortal Palace, many cultivators gathered where the Immortal mist had been spreading as various incredible Artifacts were born.

These cultivators were all Young Supremes riding on different beast mounts.

These beasts held strange and mythical appearances, like black cattle covered in scales, and huge birds that flew like lightning as they spread their magnificent wings.

Huge flying boats and warships flew overhead, filled with young disciples from different sects.

Many of those qualified cultivators in the Immeasurable Heaven have all rushed here.

"Once the Younger Generation enters the Immortal Road, the matter of their own life and death is within their own hands. None of the Elders will intervene. Other than that, there will be no further requirements. However, they must acquire the opportunities themselves."

An Elder flew high and spoke with a loud voice for all the cultivators gathered to hear.

At this moment, everyone was staring at the big crack in the sky in front of them, with both excitement and agitation in their eyes.

Inside the crack, they could already see a stretch of Immortal Mountain Range.

There were majestic Immortal Mountains with a greenish-brown colour, while some of them were surrounded with a colourful aura that invoked a sense of fear within people.

Farther away, there were rays of Divine Qi floating with runes flickering and fading as Dao patterns flowed.

'These truly are the rare and precious treasures of the Ancient Immortal Continent which are found only once in a million years!'

Many cultivators who saw the scene in front of them thought so.

The rest of the Elders of the Heavenly Dao Immortal Palace also appeared in the sky.

Next to them were two people: one of them was a person whose sleeves were embroidered with mountains, rivers, the sun, and the moon; the other was a sovereign-like figure who wore a purple-golden crown.

There were also two Daoists, one wearing fluttering robes embroidered with mountains and rivers on his sleeves and the other was a beautiful woman wearing cloud patterned robes.

These were just some of the powerful existences that had the various Orthodox Sects backing them. They came here to guard the entrance, to prevent the natives of the Ancient Immortal Continent from coming out once it is opened.

"The deduction of the Sikong Family came true. A Fairy Spirit has truly appeared."

Seeing the dense mist and frost sweeping across the big crack, the middle-aged man with the mountains and rivers embroidered on his sleeves couldn't help but sigh.

The beautiful woman in the cloud-patterned robe couldn't help but smile when she heard this, and replied, "It is only natural. Our Sikong Family's Divine Art of Heaven and Earth is able to see all. To observe life and death, to break the essence of Yin and Yang… as such, calculating something like the birth of Fairy Spirit is not difficult in the slightest.".

"This can be called both a good and bad fortune. The recently born Inheritor of Forbidden Demonic Arts will also try to seize this opportunity."

"Thus, you should all be careful that you do not overestimate yourselves to suffer from it."

As these words echoed, the leaders from each of the respective groups of the younger generation turned into divine rays of light as they approached the front from all directions.

Peng Fei, a descendant of the Great Golden-Winged Peng Clan, whose body was bright as gold.

Ye Langtian of the Ancient Immortal Ye Clan, who is like an Ancient Emperor surrounded by spirits.

Wang Wushuang, a descendant of the Ancient Immortal Wang family, the heir of the Immortal Lake...

These Young Supremes were majestic and all-powerful. When they were born, a divine light had emerged from them as their Rune Bones were formed.

The Young Supremes' arrogant eyes swept across, like a heavenly sword causing the void to tremble as visions of clashing steel and splashing fire made many cultivators tremble.

This time, the Immortal Road was now finally opened for the younger generation to experience. This would prove to be a great opportunity for them so long as they didn't clash with any of the Young Supremes.

Whoosh!

Whoosh!

Whoosh!

A series of divine lights swiftly swept across the sky, coming from the other peaks of the Heavenly Dao Immortal Palace.

On a beast that resembled a Vermillion Bird, a large group of young men and women dressed gorgeously in numerous feathers had arrived.

Their leader has a petite figure, with white and delicate skin colour alongside exquisite facial features. She is the descendant of the Vermillion Bird Clan, Chi Ling.

Not far behind her were her large group of followers and among them was Ye Ling, who had changed faces with his face-altering technique.

Ye Ling's eyes swept across the many nearby Supreme Mountain Peaks, the sight of which overwhelmed him.

'It is indeed worthy of being called the Heavenly Dao Immortal Palace.'

This kind of place was incomparable to the other various sects he had seen before. The Heavenly Dao Immortal Palace was simply the best sect he had ever seen. Surprisingly, he managed to sneak in without any problems.

No one has yet to discover his true identity, giving him peace of mind.

'The Heavenly Dao Immortal Palace is worthy of being a great force in the Immeasurable Heaven. What I see now is likely just the tip of the iceberg, and it's definitely something that I can't just find anywhere.'

Ye Ling looked at the space crack not far away and was secretly excited. After all, according to the Old Turtle, there was an opportunity that the Ancient Deity of Reincarnation left for him in the Ancient Immortal Continent.

After claiming this opportunity, his Cultivation Base will rise to new heights, making it easier for him to clear the suspicions of him being the Inheritor of the Forbidden Demonic Arts.

Then, from the East, several terrifyingly powerful rays of divine light flashed across the sky.

A large group of powerful Young Supremes rushed over from there. Their leader had a handsome face, and a slender figure, wearing a feathered star crown and a white robe with wide sleeves. His appearance was simply one that transcended the rest.

Behind him was a large group of followers alongside the Heavenly Dao Immortal Palace's True Disciples. They all looked full of energy and vigour with an aura that shone as bright and colourful as a rainbow. Their mere presence caused fluctuations that shocked everyone as their bodies were enveloped with brilliant rays of light.

"Gu Changge..."

Ye Ling's pupils shrank slightly, showing a brief flash of hatred and anger in his eyes before they quickly returned to normal.

He hadn't seen Gu Changge before, but, at this moment, he could recognize the man in front of him as the enemy who he suspected to be the Inheritor of Forbidden Demonic Arts that had thrown the black pot on his head.

However, Ye Ling's thoughts were well hidden as he kept a calm look on his face.

He knew that, at this time, he couldn't let Gu Changge see the abnormality.

And after comparing Gu Changge with the white figure that night, he felt a resemblance between them.

Ye Ling clenched his fist at the thought of this.

But soon, he saw Chi Ling approaching Gu Changge with a smile on her face. Ye Ling was taken aback; he couldn't believe it.

"Brother Changge, I hope you will take care of me during this trip to the Ancient Immortal Continent."

Chi Ling smiled slightly with cupped hands, taking the initiative to greet Gu Changge.

Gu Changge stood still on the mountain, smiling slightly as he replied, "Maiden Chi Ling is too polite."

Behind him are a group of followers and the other True Disciples of the Heavenly Dao Immortal Palace.

These included Yin Mei, Jin Zhou, and others. They were all powerful Young Supremes, and the average Cultivation Base of their group had reached the Conferred King Realm.

During this expedition, they would all have to listen to Gu Changge's orders.

After he spoke, Gu Changge's glance lightly swept over the followers behind Chi Ling. His gaze had stopped for a brief moment as he saw a man with a pale face. To that man, he gave a somewhat meaningful smile.

He naturally knew that Ye Ling would be there.

Ye Ling's concealment methods are indeed amazing, even capable of concealing his Origin with the powers of Reincarnation.

However, he can't hide from Gu Changge's perception.

After all, he can just use the system to check the Fortune Value. Would Ye Ling really be able to hide it?

The Fortune Value was more than 5,000 points.

This made Gu Changge feel a little greedy. Naturally, he had kept the calm on his face. He was so calm it was as if he hadn't noticed Ye Ling.

'If Ye Ling is not stupid, he probably already knows that the person who framed him is me.'

'But even if you know it's me, can you do anything about it?'

Ye Ling didn't have the option to reveal anything because of his weak Cultivation Base.

Gu Changge just sneered in his heart, not caring one bit.

If it weren't for Ye Ling's current role, it would be easy for him to kill Ye Ling.

What's more, this time, he was waiting for Ye Ling to continue to play his role as a treasure hunter like a true Favoured Son of Heaven should.

Last time, the Favored Son of Heaven [1] he met in the Lower Realm helped him enter the core area of the Secret Realm easily.

[1: Ye Chen]

This time, it was natural for Ye Ling to help him find his way.

'Did Gu Changge notice?'

The moment Gu Changge looked over; Ye Ling's heart tightened slightly. He was a little worried that Gu Changge would notice his presence.

Thankfully, Gu Changge merely glanced at him without a care in the world.

'Fortunately, I told Chi Ling not to expose my existence beforehand, otherwise, it would be really dangerous. It's like walking on thin ice.'

Ye Ling secretly hated Gu Changge very much.

Afterwards, he felt incredibly uncomfortable as he glanced at Chi Ling who was talking to Gu Changge.

'I need to remind Chi Ling so that she doesn't get deceived by Gu Changge. This guy is the inheritor of the most dangerous Forbidden Demonic Arts.'

Ye Ling's eyes swept around, seeing Yin Mei wearing a red dress with a haggard look on her face among the True Disciples of the Heavenly Dao Immortal Palace. He frowned slightly.

'It seems that Bai Lie's death was a big blow to Yin Mei. She definitely didn't know that all of this was actually done by Gu Changge. I must find an opportunity to tell her this.'

Ye Ling still remembered the charming Yin Mei in his heart.

'It was said that Bai Lie was killed after meeting Yin Mei that night.'

'Yin Mei could also be a witness who can help me prove that I am not the Inheritor of the Forbidden Demonic Arts.'

[Editor's Note: I wonder what would happen if he gets to know the truth...]

Ye Ling thought at the beginning that if Bai Lie was gone, he would take good care of his sister-in-law, but he didn't expect this sentence to become a reality.

Boom!

The next moment, the divine mist from the crack suddenly erupted, shaking the spatial barrier that blocked the Ancient Immortal Continent. The winds were a terrifying force that seemed to be strong enough to tear people apart!

"The Immortal Road is open!"

An Elder yelled, his voice boomed as it spread in all directions.

The many Young Supremes present all had different thoughts as they stared at the crack in space ahead.

From the other direction came a huge fluctuation in the void. Yue Mingkong's stood proudly on the mountain peak with a pair of deep, indifferent eyes as her blue-coloured robe fluttered. Behind her, people from the Supreme Immortal Dynasty had also appeared.

She briefly glanced at Gu Changge from a distance before she withdrew her gaze. Inside the Immortal Road, the disciples of their respective sects had to report in groups, so she did not accompany Gu Changge.

She was mainly worried that, with Gu Changge by her side, she would have a hard time snatching opportunities from him, which slightly frustrated her.

Gu Changge saw Yue Mingkong from a distance and smiled at her.

As a result, Yue Mingkong gave a cold snort and looked away.

[Editor's Note: Imagine Mingkong saying "Humph!" for the above line. Thank me later.]

Many Young Supremes noticed the small interactions between the two, secretly becoming wary.

After all, in the outside world, everyone was kind. However, once you enter something the Immortal Road or something similar, nobody would care about something like relations.

Just Gu Changge alone was enough to give them a thorny feeling and an extreme headache. But if he and Yue Mingkong joined hands, they would suffer a big loss unless they were to unite against them.

'It's a shame Yue Mingkong won't be accompanying me, but that's alright. She should be able to keep the opportunities she earns.' As Gu Changge said this, he had a faint smile on his face.

Although Yue Mingkong avoided him, she did not fear him.

Gu Changge naturally knew this.

However, it's not like he cared. What mattered to him now was the Fairy Spirit, and the opportunities related to Ye Ling's Inheritance.

After all, the Ancient Deity's Inheritance involves the power of Reincarnation, which is related to the Dao of Time.

When it came to this power, it was only natural for Gu Changge to be very excited.

At that moment, he spoke to Yin Mei and ordered her to do something.

Ye Ling's sneaking glance at Yin Mie just now was something that could not be hidden from Gu Changge's eyes.

'It seems that if I want to know Ye Ling's whereabouts, I would have to rely on Yin Mei.'

'Ye Ling still doesn't know that Yin Mei is already mine, so there should not be any problems.'

Then, as Gu Changge glanced toward the East, he would find a cold and aloof girl standing there. Despite her cold expression, she had flawless, picturesque features. On her shoulder rests a big red bird.

Although she stood alone, there was an unapproachable sense about her, like the sight of an iceberg out at sea. People did not dare come within three feet of her.

'Gu Xian'er, this girl's Fortune Value has increased by a lot again. It seems that entering the Immortal Road is also an opportunity for her.'

'Tsk tsk tsk... Forget it, I shall let her go for now. Currently, I must first deal with Ye Ling before I can think of any other matter.'

After he took a look, Gu Changge quickly retracted his gaze.

He began to prepare the plan for what happens after they enter the Immortal Road.

'After entering, I must separate from the people of the Heavenly Dao Immortal Palace.'

'Even if I am the heir of the Heavenly Immortal Dao Palace, I am not their nanny.'

Each of them could help themselves to their own opportunities within the Ancient Immortal Continent. After Gu Changge checked their Fortune Values, he decided it wasn't worth caring what they attained.

All of his focus still remained on Ye Ling.

As for the remaining opportunities, if there were Young Supremes whose origins possessed a special physique, maybe he would find a way to obtain it.

But what Gu Changge truly cares about are the tombs of the Ancient Immortal Continent.

'As long as I can find an Immortal corpse with the Origin Essence, it'll be worth a lot, and it'll be far more valuable than the Origin of Young Supremes.'

As Gu Changge was thinking about this...

In the distance, Gu Xian'er wrinkled her beautiful brows, a little puzzled.

She glanced at Gu Changge in the Heavenly Dao Immortal Palace, feeling as though he looked at her just now.

'It must have been an illusion.'

'The Immortal Road's treasures will be my opportunity to surpass Gu Changge.' Gu Xian'er secretly said in her heart.

During this period of time, she was immersed in her cultivation, even managing a breakthrough in her Cultivation Base. However, she didn't have the same joy she had before.

Gu Changge also seemed to have completely forgotten about her.

The only way to keep her mind at peace and not be disturbed by Gu Changge was to cultivate.

According to the words of her Master, her heart is easily disturbed by Gu Changge.

This was not a good sign for Gu Xian'er, but every now and then, she can't help but run to the top of the mountain to have a look at Gu Changge. However, she was disappointed every time.

Except for Yue Mingkong who visited her several times, Gu Changge was nowhere to be seen.

Soon, many of the Young Supremes had all gone inside the Immortal Road.

Gu Xian'er was not with any group. She preferred to act alone, and the most important thing was that she could avoid meeting Gu Changge if she was alone.

'If he doesn't care about me, then why should I care about him?'

'I am sure I can protect myself inside the Immortal Road so I don't need to report to him.'

Boom!

Later, she saw Gu Changge leaving as he led the Heavenly Dao Immortal Palace's disciples.

Gu Xian'er didn't hesitate anymore. She turned into a divine ray of light and passed through the crack.

For a moment, Gu Xian'er felt dizzy, as if she was walking through a barrier of the world. Various scenes appeared on both of her sides, excluding the many bright rays of colourful light.

[Editor's Note: "Sword Art Online - Link Start!"]

Finally, she landed.

She was a little shocked by the vision.

There were small puddles of water and immortal fogs, liquefied because of the richness of Spiritual Qi.

The Spiritual Qi was so abundant that it almost liquefied into spring. Furthermore, there seemed to be only a few poisonous insects and fierce animals, making it a pure and peaceful land.

The place where she landed was an incredibly magnificent and vast mountain range.

Surrounded by immortal fog, the essence burst forth like dragon roars forming an extraordinary vision.

Not to mention the Law of Heaven and Earth seemed to be a bit better than the many places blessed with Law of Heaven and Earth in the Upper Realm, which is very suitable for cultivation.

When she saw this, Gu Xian'er couldn't help but show genuine excitement, "It seems that the Ancient Immortal Continent is really the same as those recorded in the Ancient Books. This place is great!"

"There might be many treasures here."

Her face couldn't help but show some joy.

The big red bird on her shoulder couldn't help but roll his eyes.

Gu Xian'er's wealth-obsessed attributes were something she was born with.
