Outside the six Inheritance Cultivation Towers.
A faint ripple stirred in the void.
Jun Xiaoyao's figure erged.
After coming out of the tower, he felt the flow of ti return to normal.
It had felt like he'd spent countless ages inside the tower.
But stepping back into the outside world, he realized not much ti had passed at all.
"Their speed is too slow."
Jun Xiaoyao frowned slightly. He couldn't afford to wait that long.
Because Mohoura had told him earlier that a great war had already broken out in the Borderlands.
The Jun Clan had also made their move.
No one knew how long things could be held off.
Jun Xiaoyao needed to learn the secret of the Ultimate Calamity as soon as possible.
And he also wanted to know what his father, who had never once shown himself, was planning.
Thinking of this, Jun Xiaoyao raised his hand. On his wrist, the dark hexagram mark flickered faintly.
He pondered the mark for a mont.
It wasn't rely a symbol of the Six Kings' identity.
It could also be used to sense and transmit ssages.
In just a short while, five figures erged from the Inheritance Cultivation Tower at the sa ti.
When they saw Jun Xiaoyao, Shinra showed a look of surprise and said, "First King, don't tell you've already……"
"That's right, I've already cleared it." Jun Xiaoyao said calmly.
"That fast?"
Mohoura and the others were all utterly stunned.
Compared to Jun Xiaoyao, they felt like deadweight dragging the team down.
"Then, my lord, regarding the Six Kings' ultimate inheritance……" Mohoura ventured cautiously.
"Already obtained." Jun Xiaoyao said.
This ti, everyone was shocked all over again.
But thinking about Jun Xiaoyao's talent and strength, they felt it was only natural.
"Then why did the First King call us out……" Shinra started to speak but held back.
"We don't have much ti. The great war in the Borderlands has already begun, and no one knows whether the Immortal Domain has any backup plans."
"So we need to move quickly, venture deeper into the Dark Realm, and see if we can awaken the Ultimate Calamity."
"But before that, the Six Kings' ultimate inheritance must be obtained. I'll enter the five towers and get it for you."
Jun Xiaoyao's words were seamless and airtight.
Zhuye and Yun Xiaohei opened their mouths, wanting to say sothing, but in the end couldn't get a single word out.
It was Mohoura who nodded and said, "Indeed, we should make haste to awaken the great Calamity."
"But that inheritance……" Zhuye gritted his teeth and forced himself to speak.
"What, you think I'd swallow the Six Kings' ultimate inheritance all for myself?" Jun Xiaoyao raised an eyebrow.
"I wouldn't dare……" Zhuye lowered his head slightly, the veins on his forehead bulging.
Jun Xiaoyao let out a sigh.
Truth be told, they had actually guessed correctly.
Jun Xiaoyao did intend to keep the Six Kings' ultimate inheritance all to himself.
Of course, he obviously wasn't going to say that out loud.
After that, Jun Xiaoyao continued clearing the towers one by one.
The Five Kings waited outside.
Because of the difference in ti flow between inside and outside,
they didn't have to wait very long.
They watched Jun Xiaoyao reappear, then move on to the next tower.
"My lord's strength is truly beyond imagination. With him leading us, we will surely fulfill our destiny of destroying the Immortal Domain!"
Mohoura's face was written with admiration.
Jun Xiaoyao was, aside from the Ultimate Calamity, the person he admired most.
The Five Kings watched as Jun Xiaoyao went in and out like that.
Before long, all five Inheritance Cultivation Towers had been cleared by Jun Xiaoyao.
Of course, the Inheritance Cultivation Towers weren't limited to just that.
As the challengers' cultivation levels differed upon entry, the opponents that manifested would differ as well.
So even after the Six Kings grew stronger in the future, they could still continue entering to train.
What Jun Xiaoyao had done now was simply claim the ultimate inheritance ahead of ti.
"It seems my lord has already obtained the complete ultimate inheritance." Mohoura smiled.
"Mm, there's no ti to waste. Let's continue deeper into the Wutian Dark Realm."
Jun Xiaoyao said it in passing, then headed straight into the distance.
"This……"
Mohoura was briefly stunned, but he didn't think too much of it.
Zhuye and Yun Xiaohei, on the other hand, had faces as dark as the bottom of a pot.
They always felt that Jun Xiaoyao had ulterior motives.
But given their current strength and standing, they were in no position to resist.
"Forget it. If we can truly et the Calamity, there may still be a chance for things to turn around. After all, we're all Six Kings too. Surely the Calamity wouldn't play favorites, right?"
Zhuye and Yun Xiaohei communicated quietly through their divine senses.
They could only pin their hopes on that mysterious Calamity.
Jun Xiaoyao and the others continued deeper into the Wutian Dark Realm.
Deep within the Wutian Dark Realm, an ancient chill pervaded everything.
Ti itself seed to have died here.
Everything was utterly desolate and lifeless.
Only the black mist that swirled endlessly year-round spoke of this place's mysterious antiquity, its strangeness, and its ominous nature.
After the passage of many eons,
soone had once again set foot in the deepest reaches of the Dark Realm.
Jun Xiaoyao and the others arrived here.
That eerie aura was deeply unsettling.
Even with the protection of their Six Kings status, they still felt a chill run down their spines and their hair stand on end.
Shinra and Su Hongyi both instinctively pressed their slender bodies closer to Jun Xiaoyao.
In a place this eerie, only Jun Xiaoyao could give them a sense of safety.
And just then, Jun Xiaoyao suddenly stopped in his tracks.
Ahead of him, silver light glimred and flickered, drifting through the void like swimming fish.
"What is that?"
Zhuye and Yun Xiaohei couldn't help but exclaim.
Having reached the depths of the Wutian Dark Realm, everyone's nerves were pulled taut.
The slightest change would send them into a panic.
Jun Xiaoyao frowned faintly, fixed his gaze, and said in surprise, "This is……sword qi?"
"What?"
Hearing Jun Xiaoyao's words, everyone was a little dumbfounded.
How could there be sword qi in the depths of the Wutian Dark Realm?
"And it's sword qi that has lingered for a very long ti. No telling how many ages have passed, yet it still remains here." Jun Xiaoyao said calmly.
"How is that possible? The Wutian Dark Realm is the great Calamity's sacred ground. Who could have fought here and left behind sword qi?" Mohoura shook his head, unable to believe it.
Jun Xiaoyao said nothing, but a flicker of contemplation showed in his eyes.
Just a mont ago, he had thought this sword qi might have been left behind by that ghost-masked woman.
But now, sensing it carefully, Jun Xiaoyao found that this strand of sword qi gave him a faint, elusive sense of familiarity.
"Could it be……"
Connecting it to the Jun Clan making their move at this very mont,
Jun Xiaoyao seed to have figured out what his father, Jun Wuhui, was truly planning.
"Quite the masterful sche indeed. Feinting one way while striking another."
Jun Xiaoyao had worked it all out.
Ahead in the void, more such strands of sword qi drifted and spread.
Jun Xiaoyao and the others carefully made their way around them.
Though no one knew how long these strands of sword qi had been here, the fierce sword intent they carried could still easily tear apart the body of an immortal.
After pressing deeper for a while longer,
finally,
the six of them caught sight of ruins shrouded in endless black mist ahead.
Behind the ruins lay a shattered dark cosmos, riddled with holes.
"What happened here? Could a great battle have taken place?" Mohoura couldn't believe it.
This was the Ultimate Calamity's sacred ground. How could there have been a battle here?
He naturally had no way of knowing that certain events had been erased from the ancient records by the Ultimate Imperial Clans.
It was a mory they had no wish to uncover.
And just at that mont, a system notification chid in Jun Xiaoyao's mind.
"Ding, congratulations host, you have arrived at a check-in location. Do you wish to check in?"
Jun Xiaoyao's expression stirred.
The Wutian Dark Realm within the Unspeakable Territory was, without a doubt, one of the most mysterious and eerie check-in locations of all.
He was very curious what kind of treasure he would receive from checking in here.
"Check in!"
