Top enlightenment at 100 years old-Chapter 617 - 609: Forbidden Existence (Part 2)

At this moment, Wei Tian sent him another message.

He informed him that soon, elder-level immortals from Phoenix Mountain would be traveling to Nirvana Immortal City to give a public lecture on the Dao.

This would undoubtedly be a great opportunity and fortune for many immortals and Loose Cultivators.

By then, perhaps a grand event would be held throughout Nirvana Immortal City.

If he was interested, perhaps they could meet in Nirvana Immortal City at that time.

Phoenix Mountain, Nirvana Immortal City...?

This made Ji Haoyuan fall into deep thought.

Just from hearing the names, he knew that the so-called Phoenix Mountain or Nirvana Immortal City must be related to the legendary Phoenix Divine Beast.

He just didn’t know if Phoenix Mountain had any direct or indirect connection with the Celestial Phoenix clan of the Lower Realm.

Ji Haoyuan felt that it was indeed necessary for him to explore this matter.

This was an excellent opportunity to understand the relationship between Upper Realm forces and Lower Realm forces.

If possible, he didn’t want to miss it.

Moreover, attending a public lecture by elder-level immortals might also provide some inspiration for him.

He had now learned that upon advancing to the Immortal Transformation realm, when you reach the Immortal Transformation Sixth Layer Heaven, your immortal body can become completely perfect.

At this time, your Dao resonance, magic, divine techniques, as well as your physical body and primordial spirit, will undergo a fundamental transformation.

Thereafter, you will achieve a truly complete immortal body, and people will call you a True Immortal.

A True Immortal, continuing forward to reach the Ninth Layer Heaven, and further breaking through to step into that Heavenly Star realm, reflecting external rules onto oneself, thereby illuminating great stars within one’s own inner world, can be called a Heavenly Star Elder.

Also known as elder-level immortal.

Above that is the legendary Sect Hierarch level.

That is the true dominator of an Immortal Realm.

Each one has the ability to overlook all immortals.

Amongst them are many who have lived through more than one Immortal Dao Era.

For an existence of such a level, Ji Haoyuan is not yet able to perceive.

But he believes that with the path he is now walking, he will surely step into that domain in the near future.

Half a month later.

Ji Haoyuan, traversing many continents and worlds via a Teleportation Array, finally arrived at Nirvana Immortal City as Wei Tian mentioned.

During this time, the only notable event was that while crossing a world alone, he encountered an incredibly broken Flying Ship.

That Flying Ship was dead silent, profound, giving one a very bad feeling.

Although it emitted no abnormal fluctuations, just flying quietly in the vast heavens, it gave Ji Haoyuan an inexplicable sense of panic.

As if something horrifying were about to leap out of that Flying Ship.

So much so that he didn’t dare to use his Dao-rule Heavenly Eye to investigate.

Even so, when he had distanced himself from that broken Flying Ship and arrived in a safe region, he used the Celestial Tribulation Saber on himself, cutting out a vast swathe of black disastrous qi.

This was truly terrifying.

Ji Haoyuan had no idea when he had fallen prey, nor did he know how such a level of contamination had descended upon him.

This made Ji Haoyuan alert.

He discovered that this so-called Upper Realm was not as simple as it appeared on the surface.

There seemed to be many phenomena that ordinary immortals simply could not understand.

Roughly a few days later.

Ji Haoyuan finally met up with the Wei Tian brother-sister duo.

At this time, the cultivation of the Wei Tian siblings had noticeably improved compared to what he saw back then.

However, these were just superficial phenomena.

What truly unsettled and shocked Ji Haoyuan was that when he looked at them with his Dao-rule Heavenly Eye, he found an immortal-level Dao resonance surging from both of them.

That was not a sight that Mahayana Cultivators or even ordinary immortals could possess.

It was only at this moment that he realized the Wei Tian brother-sister he had coincidentally met were not ordinary people, but like him, were also hidden "extraordinary beings."

Moreover, their cultivation and Dao attainments were clearly higher than his at present.

It seems they weren’t far from reaching that so-called Heavenly Star realm.

This made him feel somewhat complicated.

Originally, he thought he was the only one hiding his abilities in the Celestial Extreme Garden back then, but who could have thought that the real ones were always by his side.

Fortunately, the brother and sister were truly good people.

Even though they hid their abilities, they still treated Ji Haoyuan the same as before.

"Beixuan Dao, you mentioned before that you encountered some peculiar phenomena on your way to this Nirvana Immortal City. Can you now tell us what exactly happened?"

In an ancient and elegant tea house treasure box, Wei Qinglan couldn’t help but curiously look at Ji Haoyuan and ask.

Upon hearing her, her brother Wei Tian also looked over with some concern.

Ji Haoyuan thought for a moment and felt that discussing the incident he previously encountered with them wouldn’t hurt.

Hence, he recounted his experience of encountering that broken Flying Ship to the two.

Instantly, the originally calm siblings’ expressions changed.

Wei Qinglan even involuntarily took a cold breath, then looked at Ji Haoyuan with an unusual gaze.

Ji Haoyuan, seeing her look, couldn’t help but feel uneasy and asked:

"Qinglan, is there a problem?"

Wei Qinglan didn’t answer but questioned back.

"Beixuan, do you really not know what the thing you encountered before signifies?"

Ji Haoyuan shook his head, then sincerely asked for guidance.

Finally, Wei Tian spoke up.

"To be honest, the thing you encountered on your way here, if my guess is correct, should be that legendary forbidden existence."

"Forbidden existence?"

Ji Haoyuan showed a puzzled expression.

He really wasn’t aware of what Wei Tian meant by a forbidden existence.

At this time, Wei Qinglan interjected:

"The so-called forbidden existence refers to an enigmatic, imperceptible, unpredictable, and uninvestigable existence.

From what we know, in the past, there were people like you who accidentally encountered such forbidden existences.

But most of those who encountered those forbidden existences didn’t return alive.

Even if some survived by chance, they eventually lost themselves and went mad over time."

Having said this, Wei Qinglan gave Ji Haoyuan a look filled with pity.

Evidently, she felt that although Ji Haoyuan managed to escape from the forbidden existence alive, he might end up like those people in the past, ultimately losing himself and becoming insane.

This sobered Ji Haoyuan.

If he was correct, those who managed to survive but ended up in that state likely had a significant reason that was connected to the disastrous qi they carried.

At this moment, Ji Haoyuan suddenly felt that his earlier handling was too crude, and henceforth, he must cleanse himself again with the Celestial Tribulation Saber.

It would be best to utilize the power of the broken bronze bell to see if there were any remaining lingering malicious influences on him.

"Little sister, stop scaring Beixuan,"

Wei Tian seemed a bit unable to tolerate this.

He said to Ji Haoyuan: "Beixuan, don’t take my sister’s words too seriously.

Indeed.

Many who encountered the forbidden existence faced calamities.

However, those who managed to survive, as long as they handled things properly afterward, wouldn’t face significant danger.

Coincidentally, as far as I know, the predecessor from Phoenix Mountain arriving soon at Nirvana Immortal City might have the means to help you eliminate the potential threats on you."
