Eternal Tale Chapter 823: Bai Li clan's true origins

Three Thousand Great Worlds, on the battlefield beyond the boundary.

Atop the Star-Gazing Cliff.

The Blood-Clothed Immortal King stood with his hands behind his back, gazing silently into the distance.

Behind him stood a human male with an exceptionally hideous appearance, his ferocious teeth exposed, giving him a nacing look.

"Tian Li," the Blood-Clothed Immortal King spoke calmly, "It seems Chen Xun is indeed the Old Man Crossing the World."

"Yes."

Tian Li bowed his head respectfully, his eyes filled with undisguised urgency, and said in a deep voice, "Immortal King... thank you for your years of guidance!"

"Mm." The Blood-Clothed Immortal King responded indifferently, "When you see him, tell him to be wary of the Ancient Saint Clan; there are many plotting against him."

His gaze deepened as he recalled the strange events of the past, confirming that there were indeed forces at play behind the scenes, the Nine Heavens Immortal Alliance...

A flicker of murderous intent crossed the Blood-Clothed Immortal King's eyes, and the atmosphere around them suddenly grew tense. Those colluding with evil spirits from beyond the boundary to sche against the world's cultivators must be eradicated.

Tian Li shuddered at the words, looking incredulously at the back of the Blood-Clothed Immortal King. What connection did Lord Crossing the World have with the Ancient Saint Clan?!

The Blood-Clothed Immortal King let out a cold chuckle, "Just convey my ssage."

"Yes!" Tian Li took a deep breath, fearing that sothing significant had occurred on the battlefield beyond the boundary, involving so great secret.

The Blood-Clothed Immortal King did not dwell further on the topic of Chen Xun but shifted the conversation, "Tian Li, Blood Slaughter Nine Revolutions, cultivate well. Your blade should be drawn for clarity of heart."

Tian Li's eyes showed intense respect as he replied solemnly, "Yes!"

"Heh."

A rare smile appeared on the Blood-Clothed Immortal King's lips as he slowly turned his head, "So what if you were born with a fierce appearance? The world is full of diocrity. Back in the day, I slaughtered countless from various clans, and who dared to speak against it?"

"Only the strong are respected in this world, and only those with a clear Dao heart are worthy of reverence. Your path is still long; do not be bound by appearances. If your Dao heart is flawed, act as you see fit."

Though brief and filled with a sense of slaughter, his words were gentle, lacking any imposing aura, yet they left Tian Li deeply shaken.

"Tian Li, do you know?"

"Officially leave the sect and bring back the remains of your senior brother!" Tian Li roared, the mask hanging from his waist swaying in the cliff's wind, "I will rember the Immortal King's words!"

"Mm." A hint of satisfaction flashed in the Blood-Clothed Immortal King's eyes as he continued calmly, "Do you know why I favor you?"

"I don't know..." Tian Li chuckled sheepishly. The Immortal King had never said, nor had Ji Yan or Lord Crossing the World explained why they took him along.

"I, Blood-Clothed, have battled across the Eight Desolations, defeated countless strong enemies from myriad clans, and guarded the gates of the Heavenly lody Kingdom, starting as a re soldier."

The Blood-Clothed Immortal King looked up at the sky, his voice loud and clear, "I dislike the deceit and petty behavior of immortal cultivators, but I respect those with loyalty and courage. Tian Li, had you been born in the Era of Great Slaughter among the Myriad Clans, you would have walked alongside ."

"......" Tian Li stared blankly at the Blood-Clothed Immortal King, thinking it was rely because of his decent aptitude.

"You..."

"Ti is short; those who have used the divine soul cannot seal themselves."

The Blood-Clothed Immortal King looked at the void of deep space with an unrestrained laugh, "This era is sowhat dull, and the war beyond the boundary will be my last journey."

"Immortal King, there are life-extending treasures!" Tian Li's voice trembled as he instinctively took a step forward, "With your talent, how can you stop at the Venerable realm!"

"The foundation of my Heavenly lody Immortal Kingdom is beyond your imagination."

The Blood-Clothed Immortal King shook his head with a smile, a trace of ancient sorrow in his eyes, "I have already consud three types of life-extending treasures, but even if I were to sit in ditation, it should be with blood spilled on the battlefield."

"I ca today just to see you off; no need for further words."

The Blood-Clothed Immortal King's gaze sharpened, a blood-red spear slung across his back, and his imnse aura swept across the heavens and earth, "Tian Li, if you can see the future immortal realm, rember to visit the Ling family of Heavenly lody."

"Immortal King... why?!" Tian Li's eyes widened as he looked up at the Blood-Clothed Immortal King soaring into the sky.

"Of course, to pay homage to ! This is the immortal kingdom I have built for you juniors!"

In the sky, the blood-red light was vast, the overwhelming laws of the world pressing down, and the Blood-Clothed Immortal King laughed heartily, his figure disappearing with the surging blood light, leaving only his domineering words echoing between heaven and earth.

On his journey, the Blood-Clothed Immortal King suddenly glanced at a certain immortal kingdom's military court, the Battle Camp.

He smiled faintly, a look of reminiscence in his eyes, the Bai Li clan, under the Human Emperor's command... the vanguard that first invaded the Three Thousand Great Worlds!

They tread upon the ancient immortal kingdom, destroyed the immortal ancient forbidden lands, laying the foundation for the human race in the Three Thousand Great Worlds, the only terrifying immortal army that forced the Three-Eyed Ancient Immortal Clan to retreat without a fight.

Even without ever crossing paths, they were the only military court family that made the Ling family feel inferior!

In the mid-era of great slaughter among the myriad clans, the Bai Li clan retreated bravely, having lost almost all of their clan mbers, suffering the most severe losses among the human lineage, and eventually disappearing mysteriously...

Even after the era of great slaughter among the myriad clans ended, this clan never reappeared on the grand stage of the myriad clans.

Rumors say they were targeted by too many strong clans, their bloodline seed to have major issues, and even the immortal history did not record this clan, as if they were erased from human records.

Only remnants of that era like him knew of them.

"The Bai Li clan has been out of the world for a long ti, and the ancient humans of Boundless haven't taken them back..."

The Blood-Clothed Immortal King's eyes flickered with a cold light, then he revealed a aningful smile, "Perhaps true oblivion is knowing nothing at all, which might be a way to protect them."

Even the upper echelons of the strongest myriad clans of Boundless would pretend not to know, seeing no need to get entangled with this clan's karma, better to jointly expand territories and open up the immortal realm.

His gaze gradually withdrew, the battle intent in his bloodline worthy of a military court family, even after disappearing for an entire era, it could still be passed down to this day!

The Blood-Clothed Immortal King also exuded an astonishing battle intent, gazing into the chaotic deep space.

His eyes carried a hint of relief, to fight alongside this clan would fulfill an unfulfilled regret of the past.

In the distance, below the Star-Gazing Cliff.

Roar!!

Suddenly, a roar echoed, the earth shattered by a massive giant's punch, its fist radiating the power of the Five Elents, its might further unleashed.

Crack—boom! Boom! Boom!

The ground cracked, forming a terrifying chasm, the giant standing on the earth, its fierce gaze scanning the four directions, shouting, "Feathered phoenix, dare block my view again, and I'll tear you apart!"

Chirp~~~

A massive fire phoenix streaked across the sky, fear flickering in its eyes, had the Nine Heavens Shadow Clan mutated?! What body refining technique was this?!

Roar~~~~

A dragon's roar resounded, an ancient dragon overlooking the earth, its eyes filled with vigilance, this Nine Heavens Shadow Clan's immortal clan must have severed their path and started anew!

On the ground.

Immortal Absolute lightly clenched his fists, chuckling lowly, and in that instant, the world emitted a piercing hum.

As if with a gentle squeeze, he crushed the surrounding void to pieces!

The expressions of the surrounding creatures from various clans changed, all turning their heads to pretend they hadn't seen anything.

It was well-known that the Nine Heavens Shadow Clan refined their bodies, integrating the Spiritual Qi Immortal Path into their flesh, elevating their immortal realm.

Now, however... such a monster had erged!

Immortal Absolute had slaughtered all around upon entering the battlefield beyond the boundary, like a mad demon, his fists directly blasting the evil spirits from beyond the boundary into the qi of the Five Elents!

This absolute scene terrified all directions, and later, his terrifying recovery ability left cultivators from various clans astounded, needing no healing Qi-Enhancing Pills, no spiritual qi recovery...

Directly absorbing the qi of the Five Elents from heaven and earth to repair his body, wasn't this a monster?! Wasn't this an alien spirit of the grand world?!

As long as he wasn't pulverized into dust, as long as his vital energy wasn't exhausted, as long as the qi of the Five Elents wasn't depleted, he could keep fighting... without any weakness.
