Supreme Emperor of Swords-Novel

Chapter 1160 Bright Moon Immortal

“Dark power?” Ding Hao lowered his head and thought for a moment before he said, “Se- uh, Fairy, do you mean Hades True Immortal?” This chapter is updated by ɴovᴇl_Firᴇ.ɴet - novelenglish.net . bin

“Hades True Immortal?” The fairy in white was stunned.

Ding Hao told her everything he knew about Hades True Immortal.

After listening carefully, the fairy in white nodded thoughtfully and said, “It turns out that he now claims to be Hades True Immortal. Yes, it’s him. He was the fire artificer abandoned by Xuan Tianzong. No one expected that he would be the one who was only one step away from eternity. Xuan Tianzong took in eight disciples in his lifetime, but ironically, his most outstanding disciples were all killed by a fire artificer!”

“Xuan Tianzong?” Ding Hao was bemused.

“He was a supreme master in the Immortal Period. That was very long ago. It is said that he existed at the beginning of the world. In that era, his name represented an untouchable legend. Even in the era when immortals appeared in large numbers, he was still the top one who could not be challenged.” The fairy in white looked indifferent, but her tone was obviously full of emotion. She said, “Some people call him Immortal Ancestor, and some people call him Immortal Father. Almost all the people on the Plane recognize his status. If it weren’t for Xuan Tianzong, there wouldn’t be immortals in this world… In short, he was the No. 1 Immortal in that era.”

“The No. 1 Immortal of the Immortal Period?!”

Ding Hao was quite shocked. Since Xuan Tianzong was known as the No. 1 Immortal among the others in the Immortal Period, who was above all the immortals, it meant that he was indeed an incredible being. He was regarded as the Immortal Father by all the immortals, and he might also be the creator of immortals. He could definitely be regarded as an unprecedented expert.

However, judging from the tone of the fairy in white, it seemed that Xuan Tianzong had died later.

How could such a figure die?

Ding Hao recalled what the fairy in white had said about being only one step away from eternity. That was to say, even someone as powerful as Xuan Tianzong couldn’t achieve eternity. Was it really so hard to achieve eternity?

“Did you just say that Hades True Immortal was Xuan Tianzong’s disciple?” Ding Hao asked.

“In that era, all immortals had to call Xuan Tianzong ‘Semi Master’. Xuan Tianzong gave lectures to preach scriptures, and those with outstanding talent could listen and comprehend by themselves. Some would gain enlightenment and become immortals, while some would become devils. The eight people with the most outstanding talent were accepted as disciples by Xuan Tianzong and were personally taught the Profound Sky Great Tao. This was a major event that shook the entire Plane in that era, and being accepted by Xuan Tianzong could be said to be the luckiest thing in the world!”

The fairy in white seemed to have sunk into her memories.

She continued, “However, in addition to those eight people, there was another one who was not very talented. He had a dull comprehension ability, a humble origin, and extreme behavior. For some reason, he was chosen by Xuan Tianzong as an attendant and became a fire artificer in charge of cooking. Although his status was not as good as those eight people, he became the envy of countless people since he could follow Xuan Tianzong and listen to his lectures of the Great Tao.”

“Is this fire artificer Hades True Immortal?” Ding Hao asked.

“Yes. He was a mystery, a figure who was forgotten by countless people after a period… A hundred years after Xuan Tianzong took in disciples, eight disciples achieved great success in martial arts and dominated the world. They were almost invincible. Each of them occupied a place and commanded heaven and earth. They were extremely noble, and they were called the Eight True Immortals. However, that fire artificer was unknown and there was no trace of him. Everyone thought that he would not be able to comprehend the Great Tao in the end. Who knew that at that time, a piece of shocking news that caught all the creatures in the world off guard was released…” Speaking of this, the fairy in white was slightly stunned. It could be imagined what kind of shock it would cause when the news was spread out.

An idea flashed through Ding Hao’s mind. He asked, “Did Xuan Tianzong perish?”

The fairy in white nodded and said, “You’re right. Indeed, known as the Immortal Ancestor and the No. 1 Immortal of the Plane, Xuan Tianzong, who was only one step away from eternity, died. As soon as the news came out, the whole world was shocked. Countless immortals felt the aura of Xuan Tianzong that had been wandering and broken before. The seal between the Immortal Ancestor and heaven and earth was slowly breaking and dissipating, which showed that the news was true. This shocked the whole world. He had been the most impossible to die, but he did perish. It was as if the sun hanging in the void had been extinguished and the world suddenly fell into darkness.”

“Did this happen because of the fire artificer?” Ding Hao asked.

The woman in white said, “That’s right. After the Eight True Immortals investigated this matter together, they finally came to the conclusion that Xuan Tianzong was killed by that fire artificer. This conclusion was hard to believe. Even if all the immortals in the world joined forces, they still couldn’t kill Xuan Tianzong. Yet, he was killed by a fire artificer. However, we had to believe what the Eight True Immortals said. Later, after all the forces pursued that fire artificer and fought several battles, they suffered heavy losses. Only then did we find that the strength of that fire artificer was terrifyingly strong. He could even kill immortals. Moreover, he was getting stronger and stronger, causing the immortals who were chasing after him to suffer heavy losses…”

“What a familiar plot.”

Ding Hao recalled the stories in countless martial arts s in his previous life. They were basically like this. As expected, the reality was more exciting than the plots in the s.

The fairy in white continued, “If the death of Xuan Tianzong was the prelude to the turmoil of that era, then the rise of the fire artificer led to the complete descent of the turmoil. In less than a year, hundreds of immortals died. There hadn’t been so many deaths of immortals since the birth of the world…”

“Hundreds of immortals died?”

Ding Hao gasped. He could imagine how tragic it was at that time. The immortals were killed at will one by one, which would be simply unimaginable in current times. There had been no immortals in this world for countless years. The strongest group of people in the world would now even fight over an Immortal Artifact at the risk of their lives. In those days, an Immortal Artifact might not be rare.

“The fire artificer was powerful, and he rose to power. In the shortest time, he developed his own forces. The dark power swept across the world. Those dead immortals were turned into dark puppets to fight for him. Some fallen immortals attached themselves to him in order to pursue power. A new overlord rose. Therefore, people turned from avenging Xuan Tianzong to fighting over the fate of heaven and earth. The Eight True Immortals kept fighting against the fire artificer, and wars were on all the time between the Eight True Immortals…” At this point, a trace of horror flashed across the bright eyes of the white-clothed fairy. She continued, “As a result, heaven and earth were penetrated, the reincarnation was ruined, and the continents were torn apart. The entire Plane was almost destroyed. The Eight True Immortals were defeated one by one, and the dark power swept the world…”

Hearing this, Ding Hao was shocked.

Although the fairy in white just said a few words, she managed to describe the dark days of the Immortal Period’s collapse. Was the destruction of the Immortal Period really caused by Hades True Immortal? This being was really countless times more terrifying than Ding Hao had imagined.

Since the Immortal Period, all the immortals had died during countless wars. Even the Eight True Immortals had died. Xuan Tianzong’s peers had all died. Only the fire artificer who had been looked down upon by others had been able to have the last laugh.

“The two divine weapons in your hands used to belong to two of the Eight True Immortals. The immortals and the demons belonged to the same force. Back then, they came from the same source, but now they have cut ties with each other…” The fairy in white sighed with emotion.

Ding Hao thought of something and said, “Immortal Period collapsed, and all the immortals died. Fairy, you are trapped here, but you didn’t die in that disaster. I guess you were also a powerful figure who commanded a region back then, weren’t you?”

The fairy in white glanced at Ding Hao, smiled, and said, “Boy, are you trying to find out my identity? I am indeed trapped here, but I did die. I… have been dead for many years. Back then, as Bright Moon Immortal, I was indeed the only woman among the Eight True Immortals who commanded a region.”

“Bright Moon Immortal?

“She’s one of the Eight True Immortals?”

Ding Hao was shocked. Although he had thought that the identity of the white-robed fairy was unusual, he did not expect that she was one of the Eight True Immortals. Her origin was a little too prominent.

“However, she just said that she has been dead for many years… Could it be…”

“What you are seeing now is just a wisp of my Divine Senses. My real body has long been dead,” the fairy in white said. “If I were alive, how could this tactical deployment trap me?”

Ding Hao was surprised and subconsciously wanted to run his Seven Star-shaped Eyes of Fate to observe carefully, but he held back his urge and did not want to be disrespectful to the fairy.

“I’ve been trapped here and have been isolated from this world for too long. At first, I wanted to know what was going on out there, but now… everything has nothing to do with me. I’m just here alone. It’s very boring.” The Bright Moon Immortal looked at the dozen or so masters of the Ceroman Clan and said, “Fortunately, these silly Ceromen found this forbidden area and broke in. I was tempted and trapped them here. Hee hee, at first, these guys were very cunning and cruel, but now they’ve become much more obedient after being taught.”

Ding Hao couldn’t help but feel worried about these Ceromen.

Sure enough, the fairy in white had saved them. Otherwise, with their cultivation in the God Realm, they would have died without a doubt before they got to break into the forbidden area.

Ding Hao suddenly realized that the master of the Ceroman Clan who had left alive at that time was released by the Bright Moon Immortal.

Although she couldn’t get out because her real body was dead, she had been trapped here for so many years and had comprehended this tactical deployment. It was possible for her to secretly instruct and release a Ceroman. She wanted to use the Ceroman to send some news to the outside world. Otherwise, how could the Ceroman get the booklet of prophecy and get out alive with his strength?

At this moment, the sound of the Life Tripod of Heaven and Earth in the distance suddenly rang out.

It was as if there was something struggling madly in it.

The fairy in white was stunned and suddenly said, “Oh no, I forgot to check the time when I was chatting with you. This fat cat will probably be cooked soon.”
