Chapter 596: Re-entering the Forbidden Zone

Cross-shaped Yin and Yang Land.

Lin Fan arrived here again, casting a spell to tear open the Void Realm. Two great rivers flowed, and the powers of Taiyin and Taiyang converged.

Chaos Qi surged, continuously falling from the Void Realm. A portal appeared within it, and in an instant, he stepped inside.

This was a path, filled with surging domain power. If an ordinary Cultivator walked on it, they wouldn't be able to withstand it and would be crushed.

Even a Human Supreme wouldn't dare to easily trespass, because only beings who had surpassed the extreme could pass through.

One could say this was a test; those with insufficient potential would be eliminated.

However, Lin Fan was unharmed, his steps light. Although this path was extraordinary, it couldn't stop an Immortal.

His speed was very fast, and he once again saw the Life Forbidden Zone. The ruins were still there, a desolate expanse of Gobi desert.

In its depths, there was still a snow-white, incomplete skull. It belonged to the Lord of the Forbidden Zone, giving Lin Fan a different feeling.

"After an Immortal King dies, no matter how powerful or glorious they were, they ultimately cannot withstand the passage of time and turn into a handful of dust."

At this moment, as he approached, the scene changed. A cosmic lake appeared, sparkling and clear like blue sapphires.

Additionally, on the opposite bank of the lake, there was a thatched hut, and a White-robed Man appeared with it, looking as refined as jade, sitting there.

"Senior, long time no see!" Lin Fan nodded to him, his body enveloped in Immortal Qi, exuding an immortal aura.

Things were different now. With his current cultivation, he naturally saw more. The Lord of the Forbidden Zone had indeed perished, with only his obsession remaining.

"You've achieved Immortal Ascension!"

The Lord of the Forbidden Zone was very surprised, recognizing Lin Fan. After all, only twelve or thirteen years had passed since their last meeting.

Yet, it felt like an eternity had gone by.

Last time Lin Fan and the Big Black Dog arrived, their cultivation was only at the Divine Fire Realm. This time, he was directly an Immortal.

The magnitude of this leap astonished even the Lord of the Forbidden Zone.

Finally, Lin Fan moved, simply walking across the cosmic lake without a single drop of water or speck of dust touching his slender body.

"Please sit, young attendant, serve tea!" the White-robed Man said, looking very elegant and appearing to be under thirty years old.

In front of the thatched hut, there was still a tea table and two tree stump seats. The middle-aged man sat on one, and Lin Fan sat opposite him.

As for the so-called young attendants, there was one male and one female, two in total, also very young. They were True Immortals in life, but unfortunately, they had also died.

Lin Fan sat down gladly and openly. Coming to the Lower Realm this time, he had intentionally come here to ask for advice on some matters.

"Not long ago, an interesting young man also came, afflicted by the Immortal Severing Curse, carrying the jade tablet I once gave you, and passed through here."

"To be honest, that is my Junior Brother, also a Disciple of Willow God. If Senior has time, you could guide him," Lin Fan replied.

The White-robed Man nodded, signifying his agreement, but he was still more curious about the secret of Lin Fan's Immortal Ascension in such a short time.

"Dreaming back to the Era of Emperor Fall, a period of time. When I woke up again, I was already an Immortal." Lin Fan sighed softly, as if deeply moved.

Afterward, he explained in more detail; there was nothing to hide.

"So that's how it is. I've heard of that place. In the previous era, there were beings who ascended the platform, and there were indeed instances of achieving Immortal Ascension in one step."

The White-robed Man seemed interested, his voice calm and very refined. If one didn't observe carefully, they would think he was a living person.

In fact, he had been dead for tens of thousands of years, having perished at the beginning of the Immortal Ancient Era.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have successively taught nine Disciples, with the renowned Qing Yue Zhen Xian being one of them.

"You are quite lucky. This situation is very similar to a rumored place, achieving living Reincarnation," the White-robed Man praised.

"Is Senior referring to… the Ancient Passage in the Immortal Realm?" Lin Fan pondered.

"Oh, you know of it too?" The Lord of the Forbidden Zone was a little surprised.

Lin Fan nodded, but it no longer mattered. He already had his own Opportunity and no longer needed to go there.

At this time, while the two were talking, the Dao attendant on the side served tea. The fragrance was intoxicating, exuding an astonishing aroma that made one feel captivated.

Lin Fan picked up the teacup and tasted it again. It was still bitter and astringent, but much better than before.

Moreover, after breaking down the rules in the tea and enduring the bitterness, a sweetness emerged, like a taste of relief after hardship.

Of course, he didn't forget the purpose of his trip and mentioned some other matters, involving the Immortal King and Dark Immortal King levels.

"You want to deal with a surviving Dark Immortal King?" The Lord of the Forbidden Zone was surprised, genuinely startled.

The Lower Realm Eight Regions, a cage-like place, actually had a Pumo King hiding, which was truly unexpected.

Not to mention him, even Lin Fan felt a headache.

If not for having a god's-eye view, who would have thought that a tiny place harbored a bunch of old monsters?

The Ten Vicious Kunpeng, True Dragon, and crippled Kings, one by one, after being injured or perishing, all gathered in this barren land.

Even Willow God was the same.

One must know that this didn't even include the cage in the Void Realm, which imprisoned the Dark Immortal King, as well as the Second Under Heaven and the Yellow Dao Immortal Metal Daoist.

"The Lower Realm is not simple. In the past, many great vicious beings were imprisoned here. Once someone breaks free, the Chaos will be more severe than anywhere else," Lin Fan thought.

Therefore, he came to the Eight Regions to investigate, hoping to resolve some hidden dangers in advance, lest Chaos arrive and someone take advantage to cause trouble.

"Still, be careful. A Dark Immortal King is equivalent to an Immortal King. Even if he only has a remnant soul, he is still unfathomable, and it's hard to say what trump cards he might have."

The Lord of the Forbidden Zone spoke earnestly, cautioning him based on his own experience.

What was most daunting was that Pumo King was not an ordinary King; he was an extremely ancient giant in the foreign realm.

At the end of the previous era, he had stirred up boundless bloodshed, daring to fight the True Dragon, the Six Paths Reincarnation King, and the Wu Zhong Immortal King successively.

If he hadn't been so stubborn, always seeking out the strongest to clash with, he might not have fallen to this state.

However, Pumo King's plight was truly miserable.

In ancient times, he was hunted down by beings he once considered ants, losing all face, and had no choice but to hide in the Lower Realm to recuperate.

Even so, upon reaching the Eight Regions, he was not at peace, stirring up boundless winds and clouds, devouring countless beings.

Finally, the world united to suppress him, and Pumo King was forced into Baiduan Mountain, with no news of him since.

Lin Fan couldn't help but click his tongue. If it were any other Dark Immortal King, being so disheveled, they would probably die of anger.

"Now is a good time to strike. If you can kill him and obtain his imprint, it will be of great benefit to your path to becoming a King," the Lord of the Forbidden Zone added.

He was an Immortal King in life and was very familiar with this. Every King was unique, and their Dao fruit surpassed imagination.

Throughout history, it was not unheard of for people to do this, advancing further by killing, devouring, and seizing the Dao fruit of others.

Generally speaking, such things mostly occurred at the Immortal King level, because the benefits were too great, with some people leaping to become Supreme giants.

Lin Fan understood. Wasn't this equivalent to the nine-headed monster in the Immortal Realm? Patching together various Immortal Kings, neither human nor ghost.

This was not in line with his Dao. Although he wouldn't devour, if he could comprehend the path to Dao of a King, it would also be a great Opportunity.

"Thank you for your guidance, Senior."

Subsequently, Lin Fan thanked him and left the Forbidden Zone, immediately heading to the Lower Realm to search for Pumo King's whereabouts.

He remembered that this fellow had been constructing a passage to leave this realm and return to the foreign realm. If he succeeded, he would surely become a great enemy in the future.

No matter what, he had to be stifled as soon as possible.
