A full million years of great fortune from the universe has accumulated here, protecting Wang Heng forever.
The divine ring was extremely bright and shining, connecting with the heaven and earth, and constructing an extraordinary field outside Wang Heng's body. It involved secrets such as heaven's will and destiny, and greatly delayed the process of the black curse devouring vitality.
Of course, this was also due to the fact that Wang Heng's cultivation was not high. The curse suffered by a quasi-immortal king like Xian Teng was so terrifying that he had no ability to resist and could only be slaughtered by it.
……
Wang family mansion, side branch.
Wang Yue, who had already merged with the prototype of the ancient universe, was now looking in horror at a human-shaped black mark on the ground not far away.
He was a True Immortal from the side branch, with profound Taoism. Although he was not as good as a Quasi-Immortal King, he was considered a strong man in the field of True Immortals. At the same time, he was also the ancestor of Wang Yue's lineage and had lived for a long time.
Who would have thought that such a powerful creature would die in a very short time, swallowed by a horrifying black symbol, and its body and soul would all be burned to ashes.
Not only this true immortal, but other creatures in the side branches were also targeted by the black symbols, which emerged directly from their blood, making it impossible to defend against them.
In just half a cup of tea, the three true immortals, a group of supreme beings, and many powerful men were all killed without a burial place. No one was able to escape.
The reason why Wang Yue is still alive is that he is only at the seed realm, so the power of the curse he suffers is not that terrible. Moreover, he has fused with a perfect ancient seed with strong vitality, which can protect him for a while.
However, he still couldn't escape death, and his fall was only a matter of time.
"How could this be?"
Wang Yue didn't understand. This was the Wang family, with an almighty immortal king in charge. Who would dare to attack this place? Where did these strange black symbols come from?
Just when he was at a loss for words, a voice sounded in his ears and let out a heartfelt sigh.
"Is it an ancient curse cast by the Immortal King from another world? Or perhaps there is an even more terrifying source. In short, there is no solution."
A figure appeared in the territory of the side branch, tall and straight, standing there like a majestic mountain, with long black hair casually draped over his shoulders, imposing and intimidating without even being angry, and on his left shoulder stood a three-legged golden crow covered in flames.
Wang Yue recognized at a glance that this was the first general under the command of the Wang family Immortal King, the quasi-Immortal King - Xun Yang.
There was hope in his eyes, and he struggled to crawl towards the other person, constantly calling for help.
"Senior Xunyang, save me."
Xun Yang looked at him, and the look in his eyes was not as kind as before, but only cold and indifferent.
Wang Yue saw the clue and had a bad feeling in his heart.
"senior……"
"I have been with your lineage for many years. It would be a lie to say that we have no friendship. It's a pity that the Immortal King wants you to die, so you have to die.
This curse saves me a lot of trouble, and I don't have to show my cold-blooded side. "
Wang Yue was stunned after hearing this. The curse came from a foreign land, and the Wang family’s Immortal King originally wanted to destroy their lineage?
"You have great talent and had the chance to reach the pinnacle. But your lineage is so ignorant that you have been in constant contact with the Immortal Realm and even dreamed of competing with the Immortal Prince. It is normal for you to be destroyed."
Chapter 56 Rebellion
Wang Yue's pupils widened when he heard this. It turned out that all the actions of their lineage were under the watchful eyes of the Immortal King.
"The Lord wanted to give you a chance to reform, but you didn't seize it, and you're even still communicating with the Wang family of the Immortal Realm. There's nothing we can do about it. Once something unexpected happens, your lineage will be the first to be destroyed." Xun Yang said.
When Wang Yue heard this, he recalled the scene he had experienced before. He was also invited to the Nanhai Zizhulin Tianjiao Gathering. After Wang Heng left in the nine-headed celestial horse carriage, he followed behind in the carriage.
As a result, he happened to meet people from the Wang family of the Immortal Realm on the way and was ultimately unable to go.
Afterwards, the top leaders of their lineage held a secret talk with the people from the Wang family of the Immortal Realm, and it was unknown what they were discussing.
Unexpectedly, Xunyang saw all of this.
At this moment, Wang Yue was in despair. He knew that he was doomed and no one could save him.
"puff!"
Wang Yue spat out a mouthful of black blood, and his abdomen shrank. The ancient universe prototype that had merged with it was completely devoured by the black curse symbol, and it suddenly shriveled up from its original full state.
"It's a pity to waste such a perfect ancient seed. This seed is actually an opportunity given to your lineage by the adults. It's sad and lamentable." Xunyang witnessed this scene and couldn't help shaking his head.
Wang Yue was in so much pain that he couldn't speak. Tears streamed down his face and his breath was barely breathing. He was dying and was about to die.
At this moment, he regretted that he should not have ignored the words of the Immortal King. Since Wang Heng came into the world, the side branch has changed. The Immortal King of the Wang family noticed it at that time, and said some words to warn them.
But the top leaders of their lineage did not take it seriously, which indirectly led to today's disaster.
Even without this horrible curse, he would probably have died at Xunyang's hands.
Soon, Wang Yue lost all his life and turned into a pile of ashes like his people.
At this point, all the living beings of the side branch died under the strange curse.
Xun Yang looked at the tragic scene here quietly without saying a word. If he hadn't been optimistic about this young creature, he would never have said so much to him. But now, the dust has settled and there is no regret medicine.
……
The secret land of chaos, where the immortal vines take root.
Wang Heng was still struggling, using all means to resist the power of the curse. Even the supreme soul seed that he had fused into his body was pushed out to ward off disaster and prolong his life.
The immortal vine not far away had only a little bit of its body left that had not been corroded, and its fall was a foregone conclusion.
Suddenly, the dying immortal vine spoke to the void, with an unusually calm tone.
"Now that you're here, why hide?"
As soon as the words fell, a strong figure walked out of the void and came in front of the fairy vine.
He was the quasi-immortal king Xunyang who had just confirmed the demise of all his collateral lineage.
After completing the Immortal King's instructions, he went straight to the place where the Immortal Vine took root. However, for some unknown reason, he concealed his whereabouts. He had to come out only after the Immortal Vine discovered his whereabouts.
"Fellow Daoist, how are you?" There was no trace of embarrassment on Xunyang's face. Instead, he asked about the condition of the fairy vine as if nothing had happened.
"My demise is imminent, why do you have to ask questions when you already know the answer?" replied the immortal vine.
"It's a pity that Brother Dao was born from the chaos, practiced Taoism for several epochs, experienced ups and downs, and gained a lot of Taoism skills. But now it's all going to be buried under this terrible curse. It's really a pity." There was sadness in Xunyang's eyes.
The fairy vine was very calm and unmoved, as if it knew Xunyang's true thoughts.
"You are here to look for the Chaos Gourd, right? I have already given it to this child. It is dripped with his blood and belongs to him completely."
"You are overthinking it, my friend. I am the number one warrior of the Wang family, how could I do such an unacceptable thing?
Just now, I was still running around for the instructions left by the Immortal King, and I watched with my own eyes as the side branch died out. "Xun Yang shook his head, indicating that he was not the kind of person who would kick someone when he was down.
"Xun Yang, you are a smart person. There is no need to hide many things. The Immortal King has not returned yet, what are you afraid of?
When we subdued you, the Immortal King and I had anticipated that this day might come. However, man proposes, God disposes. Who could have imagined that you would be cursed by an alien and that your blood would be the medium for the outbreak?
Right now, I, the only one who can check you, am cursed, and it is only a matter of time before I fall. Now, no one can check you, and you can do whatever you want. "Xian Teng was too calm when he spoke, so calm that it made people suspicious.
Xunyang naturally wouldn't really think so.
Even if a supreme immortal king encountered a great disaster at the border and was in danger of life and death, he, a mere quasi-immortal king, could not be challenged by him.
At this moment, if he took a wrong step, he would die without a burial place.
“Fellow Daoist, you are joking. If I had not joined the Wang family and had not received help from the Immortal King, I would never have achieved what I have today. How could I repay kindness with enmity?
All I did was just to stay alive.
If fellow Daoist Xian Teng is safe, I, Xun Yang, will never leave the Wang family, because with fellow Daoist around, even if something happens to Lord Immortal King, he can rest assured in the care of his son, and I will assist him. But if fellow Daoist dies, Lord Immortal King will never entrust his son to me.
So, how should I deal with a quasi-immortal king like me who knows the situation of the Wang family and Master Heng very well? My Lord should not leave such a big hidden danger and risk for the Master.
As for the safety of the Immortal King... I think that if he is safe, he will not let the curse erupt in his blood and endanger his own children."
Xian Teng sighed.
What the other party said was indeed true. The Immortal King family had many enemies. When the Immortal King in the family fell and needed to be entrusted with the care of someone, they had to find a trustworthy person, otherwise it would harm Wang Heng.
Obviously, Xunyang is not on this list.
In this case, the best solution for the Wang family's Immortal King is to eliminate all risks at once.
"So, what are you going to do? I have asked Wang Mian to invite the Immortal King, and you don't have much time." asked Xian Teng.
Xunyang's eyes flickered as he looked at Wang Heng, whose body was mostly covered by black symbols. He then looked at the Chaos Immortal Vine, whose fire of life was about to go out. He felt a little conflicted and hesitant.
In the end, reason triumphed over desire. The strength of Wang Heng's father left an indelible mark deep in his heart. He did not dare to do anything excessive for fear of losing his life.
"Fellow Daoist, you have misunderstood me too deeply. Xun Yang is not that kind of person. I'll take my leave now and we'll meet again if we're lucky." Xun Yang bowed and left without looking back. He had to escape before the Immortal King arrived, otherwise it would be too late.
Watching Xun Yang leave, the Immortal Vine breathed a sigh of relief. The Immortal King went to the border, and part of the reason it stayed behind was to intimidate Xun Yang. It thought that with it in place, even if something happened to the Immortal King, the Wang family would be fine.
Who would have thought that the foreign land was so vicious and launched such a horrible curse? No matter how much we planned, we still couldn't have expected this.
Fortunately, Xun Yang was afraid of the power of the Immortal King and did not dare to act recklessly, so he did not make a big mistake.
Chapter 57 Memory
As time went by, the life of the Chaos Immortal Vine faded away little by little, and finally it came to the final moment.
As it approached death, it had no fear and no hesitation. It was very quiet and peaceful, gazing at Wang Heng below with a kind face.
Seeing him persevering and fighting against the curse, a look of relief appeared in Xian Teng's eyes.
It watched Wang Heng grow up, from the moment he was born, to when he first began to toddle and speak, and then to a handsome young man. Every little detail of it flowed through the fairy vine's heart.
It had personally helped build the foundation for it and treated it as its own son, with deep feelings for it. But now that they are about to be separated by Yin and Yang, it naturally feels endless reluctance in its heart.
At the very least, it has not seen the day when this young man becomes invincible and attains the status of Immortal King.
"do not……"
Xian Teng sighed.
No matter how reluctant you are, you cannot reverse the destiny and change the outcome of death.
It took a last look at this world where it had fought for endless years, this immortal palace that it had guarded for several epochs, and scenes from the past flashed through its mind.
That day, a handsome and heroic young man suddenly appeared, leading the ignorant child out of the chaos and into the world. With one man and one vine, they traveled all over the country, fought on the battlefield, defeated the enemy again and again, escaped death again and again, and made a great name for themselves...
That was the most unforgettable time for Xian Teng, and he would never forget it no matter how much time had passed.
With nostalgia and regret, the last bit of the immortal vine's body was swallowed by the curse, its soul was extinguished, and it completely fell between heaven and earth.
"senior……"
