Chapter 244: Chapter 212: The Black Pig Carrying the Coffin_1

The entire Northern Immortal Domain is now engulfed in a great upheaval!

The descent of eleven Immortal Monarchs into the Lower World has drawn much attention.

After all, such events rarely happen in the Immortal Domain.

Aside from the expedition to conquer the First Heavenly Realm tens of thousands of years ago, it has hardly ever happened.

As a result, none of the eleven Immortal Monarchs who descended to the Lower World returned.

Various rumors have been circulating within their Immortal Cities.

Some say these Immortal Monarchs have perished.

Some say they have encountered ominous fates.

Others even say their lives have undergone anomalies!

…

“Immortal Monarch Lan Ming and the others are all powerful beings, invincible when the eleven join forces, unless they encounter an Immortal King… how could this have happened?”

“The descent of over a dozen Immortal Monarchs into the Lower World was already quite odd, and now something has happened to all eleven… It must be no trivial matter!”

“This is too terrifying, we must also send people to investigate, but we need to be careful, careful, and then even more careful!”

No matter the rumors, all seem to indicate that something truly went wrong with the descent of the eleven Immortal Monarchs.

This has left all powers within the Northern Border of the Northern Immortal Domain in a state of shock and uncertainty.

…

Xueming Celestial Nation.

A colossal palace that spans tens of thousands of li, vast as a miniature universe in its own right.

Within the grand hall, a group of immensely powerful beings have gathered seated.

There are dozens of them!

All of them, Immortals!

On the most distinguished bronze chair at the head, carved with mysterious and unfathomable Dao Patterns of the sun, sits no one, as none dare occupy it, and to its immediate left and right sit two elders who appear extremely frail!

The left elder is clothed in a robe adorned with a golden sun, bald-headed, with a pronounced forward lean in his posture, looking quite strange!

The right elder has silvery-grey, withered hair, but it is extremely long and voluminous.

“Xuanguang Celestial Lord, what matter of urgency has led you to summon us?”

An Immortal Monarch stood up and spoke.

“Indeed, we were still in closed-door cultivation, has some significant event occurred within the Sect Gate?”

“To have both Xuanguang and Xuanguang Celestial Lords personally appear, the matter must be serious!”

“Could it be a provocation by another Immortal King-level power?”

The rest also spoke up, filled with shock and uncertainty.

The bald-headed Xuanguang Celestial Lord’s expression darkened as he said:

“Today we received word that something has happened to Guang Zhao.”

Hearing this, everyone’s faces changed!

“Guang Zhao is of Immortal King lineage!”

“Who would dare to make a move on the direct bloodline of an Immortal King? Are they seeking death?”

“Is this intended to provoke a war between Immortal Kingdoms?”

They all spoke up, their expressions icy cold!

Other Immortal Monarchs might be one thing, but Immortal Monarch Guang Zhao, being of the direct bloodline of Xueming Immortal King, if someone dared to make a move on him, it would mean declaring war on Xueming Celestial Nation!

“He took a trip to the Lower World.”

The elder with long, withered hair and a moon-embroidered robe, Xuanguang Celestial Lord, spoke in a hoarse tone.

Everyone was even more surprised – the Lower World?

The Lower World should pose no threat to an Immortal Monarch, who could move unhindered there. Even the Three Great Heavenly Realms, with their own Immortals, would not dare to strike against Guang Zhao!

“Which realm did the incident occur in? Just dispatch Immortal Soldiers, and eradicate that realm!”

“Even if we have to destroy a hundred thousand Lower Worlds, Guang Zhao must be brought back safely!”

“Since the downfall of the First Heavenly Realm, no one has dared to provoke the Immortal Domain in such a manner. If we do not execute a killing, what will be left of the Immortal Kingdom’s dignity!”

The group of Immortal Monarchs was increasingly enraged, feeling deeply insulted by the incident in the Lower World!

“Two Celestial Lords, provide me with coordinates, and I will lead the Immortal Soldiers and Immortal Generals of Guangting Immortal City to descend to the Lower World and wreak havoc!”

One of the Immortal Monarchs spoke out arrogantly!

“If the matter were that simple, why would we need to summon you here!”

Xuanguang Celestial Lord, however, spoke coldly:

“According to the message received, thirteen Immortal Monarchs from the Northern Border went to the Lower World, and all of them met with disaster!”

“This even includes the Heavenly Lord Shengqin from Xuan Yin Immortal City!”

Hisss!

Upon hearing this, everyone was shocked.

Thirteen Immortal Monarchs met with disaster, including a figure of Heavenly Lord status!?

Could it be that a terrible calamity had indeed occurred?

Ordinarily, just one Immortal Monarch’s demise would draw the attention of the entire Immortal Domain, but now thirteen have met with disaster… Such an occurrence would only be seen during calamitous or wartime eras.

“This is his Soul Lamp.”

Xuanguang Celestial Lord indifferently waved his hand, and a bizarre Soul Lamp appeared in the midst of the assembly.

The lamp’s flame was a eerie blue, flickering and uncertain, extremely sinister.

“Life anomaly?!”

Someone exclaimed loudly.

“How is that possible?”

“The Lower World, whence did such a forbidden area come?”

“Could it be the work of those forbidden existences in the Three Great Heavenly Realms?”

Their expressions became grave!

Being Monarch-level themselves, they knew all too well about the taboo of life anomalies.

It was connected to an immense horror.

Only by touching upon a forbidden zone could such a thing potentially happen.

“Two Celestial Lords, did Guang Zhao go to the Three Great Heavenly Realms?”

An Immortal Monarch asked solemnly.

But the two elder Celestial Lords shook their heads.

“It was not them, but a newly merged great world, known as ‘Heavenly Realm’, and its status is second only to the Three Great Heavenly Realms.”

“Moreover, it’s not just Guang Zhao; the Soul Lamps of the other twelve Immortals all exhibit the same condition!”

The rest of them were filled with shock and doubt!

A newly-formed great world, named the Heavenly Realm… was it possible for it to cause trouble for twelve Immortal Monarchs?

Among them was even a Celestial Monarch…

“Terrifying, far too terrifying… They must have encountered a forbidden zone created by at least an Immortal King-level colossus!”

“Indeed… The Immortal Great Calamity is about to arrive, and the Immortal Kings perished in the long river of time, transforming into forbidden zones in the Lower World… There is precedent for this.”

“The fusion of a new world… It’s mostly likely caused by the forbidden zones of the Immortal King!”

The crowd was abuzz with discussion, their expressions becoming very grave at this moment, and no one dared speak further of mobilizing troops for a crusade.

To hold an Immortal King-level forbidden zone accountable?

Unless the Xueming Immortal King personally takes action!

“Two Celestial Monarchs, this matter… I fear it has exceeded our capabilities… Would it be more prudent to report this to the Immortal King?”

An Immortal Monarch spoke up.

However, the Xuanguang Celestial Lord shook his head and said,

“The Immortal King is in a very critical period right now, he must not be disturbed!”

The crowd was puzzled:

“But, if the Lower World really is an Immortal King-level forbidden zone… who could go to rescue Guang Zhao?”

The grand hall fell into silence.

The matters involved were of too high a level.

“I do have an idea…”

At this time, the Xuan An Celestial Lord suddenly spoke up, sneering:

“Since this new world is named the Heavenly Realm.”

“Although it is unclear whether this world has any connection with the First Heavenly Realm of old… but if the Three Great Heavenly Realms get wind of this, they certainly won’t be able to sit still.”

Upon hearing this, many of the Immortal Monarchs in the hall were stirred!

“Right, a brilliant plan, truly brilliant! This way, the Three Great Heavenly Realms can become our pawns!”

Someone clapped in approval!

“Back then, the Immortal King of the First Heavenly Realm proved the Hongmeng, and it was thanks to the Three Great Heavenly Realms acting during his proof that his Dao Fruit was left incomplete, laying the groundwork for the Immortal Kings of the Immortal Domain to hunt down the First Heavenly Realm’s Immortal King…”

“If they knew that the First Heavenly Realm might have a phoenix-like resurgence, they would surely be jumping in rage!”

“Heh, let dogs bite dogs, we might as well see whether it really is an Immortal King’s forbidden zone and what terrifying aspects it possesses!”

The many Immortal Monarchs in the hall were all in agreement!

“Guangjian, you go to the Third Celestial Realm right away and pass the message to Chuan Zhen there… Heh, he was once the vanguard in the attack on the First Heavenly Realm.”

The Xuan An Celestial Lord laughed coldly!

Within the crowd, a middle-aged man immediately rose to his feet and said,

“Guangjian obeys the command!”

…

Meanwhile, at the same time.

In the Lower World, within the boundless Void Sea Domain.

The intertwining of black and white, the gathering of immortals and demons.

This place was far from the regions of the Lower World under the jurisdiction of the Immortal Domain, situated at the edge of the Lower World beneath the Immortal and Demon Domains.

It was a world where black and white intermingled and ultimately turned to gray.

Enshrouded in a gray fog, the Dao Patterns within were chaotic and discordant; the principles of the entire world were twisted!

This world seemed filled with chaos and distortion.

Suddenly, in one clump of gray fog within this world, there was a tremor.

A pitiful scream erupted!

The gray fog, as if being impacted by something, began to surge.

It seemed as if something was piercing through this world sealed by gray fog, revealing a corner of itself amidst the mist!

It was… a corner of a coffin!

A gray coffin!

It was unknown how many years the coffin had existed, ancient and time-worn, yet it had not rotted, exuding a terrifying forbidden aura!

As soon as this corner of the coffin appeared outside the gray fog, suddenly, the Void Sea Domain trembled violently!

The dreadful aura raised towering waves in the void as if a storm had descended, ripping the Void Sea Domain apart inch by inch; countless Lower Worlds near the Two Realms of Immortals and Demons were bustled into dust!

The might of a single corner of the coffin was horrific to such an extent!

The coffin seemed to be pushed by something, moving out bit by bit.

Soon after, the entire coffin emerged from the gray fog.

Behind the coffin was a gigantic pig, large as an elephant, which was actually standing upright, pushing the coffin with its two colossal hooves!

And on the massive snout of the pig, a young man lay listlessly, his wrist cut open, his blood continuously flowing into the pig’s mouth!

This young man… was none other than Chen Xuanbei!

Previously, he was reborn with a black Spirit-Sensing Pig in the Dingning Realm Chess Immortal Sect, ready to walk the Supreme path and become the protagonist of this life!

But he hadn’t expected that he would come up against a firm resistance in the Heavenly Realm, not only failing to obtain the Boundless Chessboard but also nearly losing his life.

Fortunately, the Spirit-Sensing Pig had dragged him back here.

He and the Spirit-Sensing Pig, once again breaching this world, spent three months before finally pushing this coffin out!

“Finally out…”

Chen Xuanbei awkwardly bandaged his wound and said,

“This is only the most peripheral coffin of the Nine-Lives Ashen Coffin, can it truly annihilate the mysterious being of the Heavenly Realm?”

He was still frightened by the being in the Heavenly Realm!

However, the gigantic pig, large as an elephant, revealed a crafty smile in its pig eyes, speaking with a smack:

“Rest assured, even though it’s the outermost coffin, it still holds the corpse of one lifetime of the Black and White Immortal King. If we open the coffin, both heaven and earth will tremble!”

Chen Xuanbei also nodded with difficulty, a hint of hatred flashing in his eyes.

“I will kill that being in the Heavenly Realm; I will obliterate those two trash, Jiang Li and Wu Dade!”

He harbored hate!

He was the reborn one in this life, the one who should have been the protagonist!

Unexpectedly, that Jiang Li had the gall to bully others in the end!

He was enraged!

“By the way, how will you transport this coffin?”

Chen Xuanbei asked the black pig beneath him.

The black pig suddenly reverted to standing on all fours and squeezed itself under the coffin; the gray coffin rested on its back!

“Let’s go——”

An absurd and incredibly eerie scene unfolded in the void.

A gigantic black pig, carrying a terrifying gray coffin, roamed thousands of miles across the void, shaking heaven and earth wherever it passed!

——The black pig bearing the coffin!
