Chapter 718 Rotten Wooden Box

Time flowed on. Lin Fan and Shi Hao Cultivated here for one hundred thousand years, undergoing astonishing transformations, their strength steadily increasing.

In particular, their bodies and souls evolved time and again, forming Immortal Embryos, nearly ascending to the Emperor Realm, almost successfully establishing their footing.

However, at the final moment, they retreated.

Because they had a premonition that if they forced their way through, they would likely die; it was not yet time for it to happen naturally.

"At the end of the path, one sees the Immortal Emperor!"

Lin Fan pondered; this was the result of the deductions he and Shi Hao had made.

Next, the two began to create their own methods, pioneering their own systems, and studying peerless Emperor methods, striving for Perfection.

In the following tens of thousands of years, Lin Fan's entire body radiated clear light, his Dao aura surged, and the gates within his body were all opened.

This was the manifestation of the Using the Body as a Seed technique pushed to its limit!

By the end, he himself was like a seed, accompanied by the aura of the Dao, surrounded by the rules of the heavens.

He was contemplating the Dao, deducing his own invincible method, like a germinating Dao seed, gradually growing into a towering tree.

"Hum!"

At the same time, the aura of an Immortal Emperor permeated, shaking the river of time, terrifying to behold.

However, when Lin Fan was nearly finished, he was somewhat dazed, because the invincible method he had created was A Thought Eternal!

In the past, he had already mastered how to execute it, but in the end, after countless deductions and pioneering his own Dao, he had returned to the starting point.

"Is it really like this? The starting point is the end point, without beginning or end, only then can one transcend everything and achieve the eternal, undying Immortal Emperor realm?"

Lin Fan muttered to himself, his heart shaken.

His method was formed through various transformations and continuous deduction, yet the moment of ultimate sublimation was A Thought Eternal!

This was created from the root, from the source, yet in the end, on the day of success, it was a familiar method.

It was very miraculous and inconceivable, as if forming a closed loop; it was as if no matter how much you learned, you would eventually return to a single point!

Shi Hao had the same feeling.

His Great Method of Self-Transformation also began its deduction from the source, and finally, after reaching the ultimate sublimation, it returned to the source.

For a time, the two had preliminary guesses and insights regarding the Immortal Emperor realm, feeling that they were not far from that step.

"Come to think of it, we have the Corpse Immortal Emperor to thank for this."

Lin Fan's face showed a sly expression, then he stood up and walked toward the depths of the darkness, glancing at the massive, mutilated body.

The latter had already awakened again, opening a pair of soul-shaking eyes and looking over; this was not the first time.

Whenever he wanted to trigger the Dark Storm in the Boundary Sea to absorb the purest essence of the heavens, Lin Fan and Shi Hao would come out to stop him.

This resulted in the Corpse Immortal Emperor being incomparably furious; if he weren't trapped here, he would have long since killed his way out and struck both of them down.

"Latecomers, you defy the will of the Emperor; you are destined to die!" the Corpse spoke coldly and gloomily.

"Alright, alright, you've said that so many times already. Can't you rest for a while? If you aren't tired, my ears are calloused from listening."

Lin Fan was indifferent, a hint of mischievousness flashing in his eyes.

Then, he waved his hand, and a flash of rosy light appeared, revealing a jade table covered with fragrant roasted meat and fine wine.

Moreover, the ingredients were exquisite: the rat meat was golden and crispy, the Dragon meat was translucent, and the tiger meat was sizzling with oil—

"So fragrant!"

Lin Fan looked intoxicated, deliberately blowing the aroma over, drinking from a large bowl and eating meat in big mouthfuls right in front of him, looking very happy.

This scene was extremely spectacular; even Shi Hao was left speechless, only able to say that Brother Fan was too mischievous, actually provoking an Immortal Emperor.

He could be called the first person in history to do so!

One had to know that the other party was a supreme powerhouse; was this really okay?

"Roar!"

Sure enough, the Corpse Immortal Emperor was enraged, letting out an earth-shattering roar that shook the Ultimate Ancient Land, causing it to rumble.

This was equivalent to urinating on his head; how could an Emperor endure such a thing!

One had to know that he had been trapped in this place for countless epochs, motionless, and this was the first time someone had dared to flaunt such 'poison' in front of him.

Furthermore, eating was one thing, but rat, Dragon, and tiger meat—who were you mocking? Did you really think this Emperor could no longer wield a blade!

"Kill!"

With a great roar, his eyes became increasingly gloomy, his entire body shimmering with black light, emitting massive amounts of dark matter, surging and tumultuous.

But because it was blocked by the light screen, only a small portion could overflow; even so, it still possessed the might of a Quasi-Immortal Emperor.

However, Lin Fan and Shi Hao, after years of Cultivation, had battle power infinitely close to that of an Immortal Emperor, almost stepping into that realm.

Such an attack was a trifling matter to them; they responded calmly and quickly disintegrated it.

"Alright, he won't wake up again for a short time; let's continue our Cultivation." Lin Fan chuckled and glanced at the silent Corpse.

Afterward, the two retreated from that place; the dark Origin was too dense, and if they stayed too long, it would affect even Quasi-Immortal Emperors.

"What is going on?!"

Suddenly, Lin Fan and Shi Hao were both startled, sensing that something was wrong; an ancient wooden box was flying toward them.

Without a doubt, it was the rotten wooden box, but it had clearly been banished and left on the other side of the Boundary Sea; how did it appear here?

The two were very vigilant, immediately realizing the severity of the situation, and wanted to stop it and banish it into the Void Realm again.

"Boom!"

However, the depths of the Ultimate Ancient Land erupted with boundless light—all black light—blasting toward the rotten wooden box, causing it to crack.

The two wanted to stop it, but it was too late; a heart-palpitating power was permeating, with peerless Divine Might.

"Boom!"

The next moment, the rotten wooden box exploded, light rain falling in waves, brilliant to the extreme, enveloping the area as if the most sacred object had been born.

When everything calmed down, a temple appeared—ancient and weathered, made of wood, and very mysterious.

"Guidance Ancient Palace!"

Lin Fan and Shi Hao were shocked; in the end, the rotten wooden box had transformed into an ancient temple, its appearance very similar to the Guidance Ancient Palace.

It possessed unfathomable power, containing the aura of creation, not a product of this era, spewing out Chaos.

At the same time, it could be seen that there was a living being in the mysterious ancient temple, sitting cross-legged in the center with a solemn appearance.

A ball of light enveloped the being, shrouded in sacred mist, and then it suddenly opened its eyes.

It had no terrifying pressure, no vast power, but the feeling it gave people was extraordinary!

"Go, leave this place quickly, otherwise it will be too late!" the being spoke, sending out a Divine Thought to warn them.

"Who are you?" Shi Hao could not help but ask.

The rotten wooden box had existed for who knows how many epochs and had always been silent; today, a being had suddenly emerged from it—how could one not be curious?

"I cannot remember either; the years are too long. I am just a remnant soul, a wisp of a Primordial Spirit imprint, awakened by someone."

It was filled with melancholy, distress, and Endless regret, like a lost ghost that had suddenly arrived here.

Moreover, from its appearance, the ancient temple was too similar to the Guidance Ancient Palace, easily making people think of many things.

"Could the so-called Guidance Ancient Palace be for the purpose of guiding you back?" Shi Hao's expression changed, such a thought arising.

"I am not sure; in any case, this place is very dangerous, and you need to get away quickly." the being reminded them again.

"How did you come to the Ultimate Ancient Land?" Lin Fan asked, his expression solemn.

Compared to Shi Hao's astonishment, Lin Fan now wanted to know more about how it had arrived, and he had a premonition that something terrible was about to happen!

One had to know that this was the part of the Primordial Spirit that the Corpse Immortal Emperor had split off—the only part remaining that had not been corrupted by dark matter.
