Chapter 487: 267, “Top of the list” is here, but no reward given_2

“Has the vortex only recently changed?” Tan Shuchang pondered as his mentor’s voice suddenly rang out.

“You Quan, leave the cliffside first.”

Upon hearing these words, Tan Shuchang’s eyes flickered with a trace of surprise. Despite his astonishment, he promptly did as instructed.

It took him only a few breaths’ time to traverse the cliffside.

Then, the voice of Shuchang’s Ancient Immortal Ancestor sounded once more, “You Quan, Feng He has been reincarnated just beyond the cliff. Since you are there, it seems you are fated with Feng He. In that case, take Feng He as your disciple! Once the deed is done, come to Tianchang Palace and take away the seven-colored palaces that have appeared, refining them as you go.”

“Yes, Master!” Tan Shuchang immediately replied. He hadn’t expected his second senior sister to have completed her reincarnation so soon after her fall; it seems she truly was the favorite disciple of their master.

...

In the Ten Desolation Realm, there was no talk of the underworld, nor of reincarnation. To undergo reincarnation, one had to rely on oneself. However, the first kind of self-reliance meant personal strength; the second kind required the backing of one’s sect.

Undoubtedly, the rebirth of the eldest senior brother, Heavenly Sword, was due to his own strength. As for the second senior sister Feng He, the Ancient Immortal Ancestor Shuchang had intervened.

As for the seven-colored palaces, those must be a set of powerful Immortal Treasures, a reward for guiding Feng He onto the Immortal Path.

“Off you go!” The voice of Shuchang’s Ancient Immortal Ancestor sounded once more, in response to Tan Shuchang.

This left Tan Shuchang feeling somewhat strange in his heart.

Because once a person becomes talkative about a certain matter, it undoubtedly indicates that the matter is of great importance to them.

In other words, his master still held great affection for the second senior sister Feng He!

But if he cherished her so much, why then was it necessary to kill her?

Tan Shuchang was puzzled, yet he showed not a hint of it, even maintaining a respectful demeanor as he returned to the region beyond the cliff.

Only then did the respectful look fade from Tan Shuchang’s face.

For he realized that the territory beyond the cliff seemed to be capable of blocking even the power of an Ancient Immortal Ancestor!

Otherwise, it would be difficult to explain why his master had asked him to leave first, then instructed him to carry out a task.

“When I first met my master, he was unexpectedly caught...”

With that thought, Tan Shuchang changed his mind.

He decided to find the power that could trap an Ancient Immortal Ancestor!

After all, as they say, ashes to ashes, dust to dust; his master had initially been trapped, so perhaps it was best he remained that way. Otherwise, it would seem a bit discordant! Besides, one must not defy the laws of nature!

However, finding the power that could trap an Ancient Immortal Ancestor proved to be a challenging task for Tan Shuchang.

Before he knew it, twelve years had passed since he had become an Immortal, and he had finally touched upon the threshold of comprehending the Heaven and Earth Tribulation.

That Immortal Island was indeed a prize fought over by those on the Immortal Path; being on the island, the insight into the Heaven and Earth Tribulation was as clear as observing fire, the only regret being that due to insufficient cultivation, he couldn’t pierce through past tribulations nor perceive future ones, only faintly understanding the tribulation he was in.

Such regret! Such regret!

He had thought he would not write a diary again, only to realize it was his own overconfidence, for what was his cultivation level? It was only enough to casually slay a Divine Spirit Immortal.

...

Since there really wasn’t much to write about, and also because it was a last-minute effort, Tan Shuchang could only write about his recent experiences with cultivation.

To prevent others from discovering it was him, he made slight modifications to the truth.

After all, in the Ten Desolation Realm, even true immortals equivalent to the Extreme of Heavenly Gang, Holy Immortals, would be slain by him in the flesh if they were without their Immortal Treasures.

The true immortal cultivation here indeed seemed as if it consisted merely of “blue stripes,” with the realm achieved only affecting one’s lifespan.

Tan Shuchang didn’t need to utilize Immortal Techniques; he could just perform the variations of mountains and seas to instantly subdue a Holy Immortal from afar.

Unless the opponent possessed an Immortal Treasure with potent offensive capabilities.

Such Immortal Treasures were actually not so rare. In the Tianchang Palace among the top ten peers, each possessed a treasure capable of releasing power akin to a casual strike by an Ancient Immortal Ancestor.

Such Immortal Treasures, Tan Shuchang needed only glance at from a distance to sense a threat.

It could only be said that the Ten Desolation Realm was not without its merits, at least in terms of Artifact Refining skills, it far surpassed the Primordial Heavenly Realm. Even his own mother did not possess such Immortal Treasures.

After finishing this diary entry, Tan Shuchang began to wait patiently for the appearance of that plain white hand.

However, he waited for a full month with no sight of the white hand.

Consequently, Tan Shuchang had no choice but to put away the diary entry.

Yet, at this moment, although the white hand did not appear, there came a being who made Tan Shuchang feel both familiar and surprisingly shocked.

A few faint and ephemeral words emerged.

“Being an Immortal is dull, please return to your position.”

That was the first sentence.

Then came the second sentence—Mr. Chu’s regards.
