I Am the Fated Villain - Chapter 1226

Chapter 1226: He is here again, the fear of Ming King

The Heavenly Passage ancient city stood tall and majestic, exuding a sense of old wear and tear. Some areas displayed decay, marked by remnants of swords, spears, and halberds, while many spots were stained with blood, narrating the desolation of bygone days.

At this moment, the ancient city gate creaked open slowly, resembling a divine chest unsealed after a long confinement, sweeping through the clouds with an imposing spirit.

Gu Changge materialized there alongside Heavenly Maiden Tianlu, and the potent immortal essence enveloped her, betraying the surprise on her face.

Is this the immortal domain?

Heavenly Maiden Tianlu murmured, disbelief evident in her eyes. The ambient laws of heaven and earth were more conducive for cultivators to comprehend Dao-building experts, revealing numerous mysteries.

The realm constraints that had confined her began to loosen, with a substantial surge of immortal energy from her meridians and lungs hinting at an impending transformation. However, astonishment flashed across her face as she gazed upon the barren, nearly lifeless hills and ravines.

What happened here?

She was taken aback, expecting prosperity but encountering desolation. Despite spotting ancient mountains and the spiritual veins of the immortal island, the scene was dilapidated and devoid of life.

Gu Changge offered little explanation. Returning to the immortal domain, he preferred not to expose Heavenly Maiden Tianlu to the immortal calamity. Bringing her here was merely for convenience.

“The current Immortal Domain no longer resembles the transcendent realm of envy from the past,” Gu Changge remarked.

The ancients are gone, everyone is in peril, and the immortal domain has become a desolate land, devoid of inhabitants.

“When you break through the immortal realm here, no one will disturb you,” he assured. With a shake of his head, he allowed Heavenly Maiden Tianlu to undergo her immortal tribulation undisturbed, departing from the Heavenly Passage ancient city and heading into the distance.

Rumble!!!

“Husband…” Heavenly Maiden Tianlu watched Gu Changge depart, wanting to say something, but many puzzles and questions filled her mind. However, there was a better time to trouble him with inquiries.

Having reached a bottleneck in her cultivation in the upper realm, Heavenly Maiden Tianlu lacked only an opportunity.

Passing through the Immortal passage guided by Gu Changge into the Immortal Domain felt like a fish stranded on a tidal flat suddenly immersed in water. Every pore in her body greedily absorbed the essence of immortality.

In the sky above, a dull thunder appeared, and the terrifying luminosity of thunder gathered, soon transforming into a sea of thunder. Immortal energy swept the universe, reaching distant lands and causing creatures to sense the disturbance.

However, a change swept across their faces upon realizing it emanated from the Western Immortal Domain.

No one dared to investigate further. Even if they knew, there might be a Dao-building expert who survived the tribulation and attained immortality there.

Before the ancient city, many immortal kings lay in blood, including those from the Western Immortal Domain and the four foreign kings who fell a few years ago. The Heavenly Passage Ancient City had become a desolate land, fraught with terrifying perils and devoid of living beings.

For tens of thousands of miles, the landscape turned into red soil, with fallen stars creating dreadful gullies and rift valleys. In distant places, creatures from foreign lands worshiped, hoping to appease the ghosts of the fallen kings.

When the four kings arrived, a taboo figure beheaded them, turning them into nourishment. This news sent shockwaves throughout the foreign land, with ancient royal families terrified.

Some ventured to the deepest part to awaken the slumbering ancestor of the imperial clan and disclose the incident.

The sole survivor of the foreign land, King Ming, attempted to find a way to restore the scene and reveal the truth. However, he faced a severe backlash, coughing up blood repeatedly and experiencing panic.

Through him, many learned of the taboo existence behind the Heavenly Passage ancient city, potentially responsible for the Immortal Domain’s collapse, the destruction of the Original World, and the demise of the Immortal Palace countless epochs ago.

The news of the taboo existence behind the Heavenly Passage ancient city caused panic and terror to grip the foreign land. Initially, many believed it to be a resurrected old figure, but the revelation of a taboo existence left them horrified.

After countless years, the reappearance of such a being stirred notions of disaster, catastrophe, and doomsday.

Panic spread across the vast land of the foreign realm, shaking major ethnic groups and forces. The memory of the terrifying battle from the past fueled fear, rendering no one capable of remaining calm. Even the kings of foreign lands were restless, finding it difficult to sleep and eat.

Within a sacred land enveloped in a mighty gray mist, a majestic ancient city and star of life stood above the sky.

Countless people and cultivators resided in this holy land, offering devout worship to statues scattered throughout. King Ming’s mansion, suspended high in nothingness, exuded magnificence and majesty.

After escaping the Western Immortal Domain, King Ming took refuge in the estate for recovery, summoning only select descendants or trusted friends of the immortal king.

Seated on the Dao Platform in deep contemplation, King Ming suddenly opened his eyes with bewilderment and fear. The sky above the vast territory began to transform as nebulae changed and massive stars surged, colliding and exploding into powder.

In fear, people and cultivators knelt on the ground, constantly kowtowing, unaware of the cause. Meanwhile, still in the mansion, King Ming sensed the change and expressed shock.

What’s wrong with Patriarch King Ming?

Ancient true immortals emerged, their eyes reflecting astonishment.

“He is here again! He has set foot in the immortal domain again, there is absolutely no mistake,” King Ming announced with a trembling voice.

Simultaneously, King Ming felt tingling in his brows and glowing cheekbones, as if something were about to explode. His primordial spirit, previously dim, now radiated a bright light.

He realized that his survival wasn’t a fluke – Gu Changge intentionally left coordinates on him to determine his location and descended to the foreign land.

After returning, King Ming consulted an ancestor of the imperial clan to check for abnormalities. Relieved to find none, he delved into ancient books, discovering more about Gu Changge.

However, the records only deepened his fear, with the terrifying scene at the Heavenly Passage Ancient City haunting him like a nightmare.

He came to the Immortal Domain again. What is his purpose this time?

King Ming gritted his teeth, forcing himself to calm down amidst the turmoil in his mind.

As an Immortal King, King Ming’s fear during that recent moment swiftly dissipated, and he regained his composure. He understood that succumbing to fear would only disturb him further.

In the past, his emotions remained steady for tens of thousands of years, unyielding as a rock. However, discovering Gu Changge’s existence altered his perspective, realizing that to such a being, he was no more than an ant, akin to a mortal in the eyes of an immortal.

Patriarch Ming King…

A report echoed from outside the mansion, prompting numerous ancient true immortals and descendants of King Ming’s family to gather.

They had sensed the recent disturbance and sought information, recognizing King Ming as the immortal pillar of the Ming clan, shaping the family’s future. His thoughts and emotions held significant weight in the destiny of their lineage.
