Chapter 417: The Immortal World
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Someone like Zhen Nanxing was already a top existence in the cultivation world. If there were really so many more as he claimed, Su Chen did not believe they would just watch as he destroyed Qin Yuan’s Longevity Immortal Body.
After all, Qin Yuan’s talent was evident. It was impossible for every expert to ignore him, let alone have Zhen Nanxing come out to converse like this.
The reason must be those experts were not in the Shadowless Hall, or even this world.
Rumors of the Shadowless Hall’s ties to the legendary Immortal Realm were no secret. Perhaps the experts Zhen Nanxing spoke of were there!
If most were in the Immortal Realm, then for the current Shadowless Hall, having or not having these strong figures was almost the same. – those people could not interfere in this world’s affairs. Su Chen need not fear them overly.
“They are…in this world!” Zhen Nanxing stated without hesitation.
He then paused and chuckled, “In Fellow Daoist Su’s view, does our current world have a name?”
“Heavenly Martial Continent?” Su Chen replied hesitantly, confused by the question. Even a three-year-old knew this world’s name.
“No! This world has no specific name!” Long Wu interjected before Zhen Nanxing could reply.
“No name?” Su Chen frowned at Long Wu, eyes curious.
“That’s right, Master. This world has no name. As for Heavenly Martial Continent, that was likely taken randomly by someone. 1 never heard of it in ancient times,” Long Wu said seriously.
Su Chen fell silent. If he recalled correctly, when he first transmigrated, he had never heard of the term Heavenly Martial Continent either, leaving him very confused. Only later did he see it in an ancient book whose author seemed from this era!
“What if I told you this world’s name is the Immortal World?” Zhen Nanxing smiled faintly, seeing Su Chen deep in thought.
His words were calm, yet they exploded in their ears like thunder.
“Immortal World?” Su Chen’s pupils constricted as he cried out, though he quickly calmed himself.
While a little unbelievable, it was still acceptable. What puzzled him was this world hardly seemed worthy of the name Immortal World! Its surface strength was far too weak. In all the myriad worlds, worlds without true immortals were rare exceptions, yet this claimed to be the Immortal World?
“Interesting…” Su Chen remained nonchalant. “Since this is the Immortal World, where might those great emperors be now?”
Through the ages, countless great emperors had entered the legendary Immortal Realm. Just from the Shadowless Hall alone, many had been guided down an unknown path to the Immortal Realm. Now, if this was the Immortal World as Zhen Nanxing claimed, didn’t that mean those great emperors never left this world?
If so, saints would be nothing in this world now… Great Emperors should be on the top. No, even great emperors seemed inadequate!
Yet in truth, it was the opposite – great emperors were extremely rare here, not one seen on the surface. No matter how one looked, this world was unworthy of the name Immortal World!
“This is the Immortal World, but the Immortal Realm is not the Immortal World!” Zhen Nanxing shook his head, not elaborating further.
Turning to Qin Hao, he continued, “I’m telling you this to make a point. This world is not as simple as it appears! Driving back the dark creatures’ invasion relied not just on this incomplete world! The Shadowless Hall’s foundations cannot be guessed by common folk. Only by Qin Hao joining the Shadowless Hall can he stand high above others in the future!”
After hearing Zhen Nanxing, Su Chen did not pry further. Smiling, he said, “This fellow Daoist thinks so highly of you. Are you willing to join the Shadowless Hall?”
“I’ll follow Big Brother’s arrangements.” Qin Hao bowed respectfully.
He actually had no interest in the Shadowless Hall. Though it seemed glorious, with countless prodigies vying to join, to Qin Hao it was just so-so.
“Since they’ve invited you, you might as well experience it. After all, the Shadowless Hall is famed as a place that can nurture great emperors,” Su Chen said slowly, smiling.
Historically, the Shadowless Hall did have ties to many great emperors, though whether it nurtured any itself was uncertain. But one thing was sure – it held many inheritances, including the Emperor’s Scriptures and imperial weapons. The benefits for a prodigy like Qin Hao would be substantial.
Of course, another reason was Su Chen’s impending departure from the East Barrens. With the Shadowless Hall’s backing after he left, Qin Hao would have more assurance traveling outside.
“What do you think, young friend?” Zhen Nanxing asked hopefully after hearing Su Chen’s words.
With Su Chen’s approval, Qin Hao’s going to the Shadowless Hall was almost set. But he still needed to consult Qin Hao’s opinion a little.
“Then I’ll follow Big Brother and check out the Shadowless Hall,” Qin Hao said, somewhat helpless.
Seeing this, Zhen Nanxing was a little speechless. Let alone Qin Yuan, countless people in the whole world coveted joining it. Yet with Su Chen and Qin Hao, it seemed they looked down on the Shadowless Hall… Su Chen’s disdain could be expected with his rapid cultivation, plus he had many inheritances. But Qin Hao didn’t fancy them either, leaving Zhen Nanxing rather awkward.
“Since Young Friend Qin Hao has agreed, let us…” Zhen Nanxing put away his zither, nodding slightly at Su Chen to take his leave.
But before he could finish speaking, Su Chen’s laughing voice was heard..
