Ancient Ancestral Ruins - Chapter 79 The Old Tortoise Stood Up

Even a body refiner at the Immortal level couldn’t shake it.

This left the cultivators present in disbelief and at a loss for what to do.

That makes sense.

If the stone door were not difficult to open, why would those important figures, led by Master Tianbao, have proposed the condition of giving priority to any opportunity behind the door?

After all, long ago, when the ancient celestial palace last appeared, even immortals who had arrived here were unable to open this door.

“I’ll give it a try!”

A cold voice rang out, and just by the sound it rang out, one could feel a sharp and murderous aura rushing towards them, sweeping across the heavens and earth.

The speaker was a man dressed in blue, from the Heavenly Sword Realm.

This realm is known as the Heavenly Sword, and it is said that it has inherited the legacy of ancient sword immortals, making its swordsmanship unparalleled in the world.

The man in blue raised his hand and grabbed at the air, and a dazzling celestial light condensed in his hand, transforming into a celestial sword!

This immortal sword is engraved with profound runes and exudes the aura of innate laws. However, its immortal power is restrained, so it is unknown what level of immortal artifact it is.

His sword strike appeared ordinary and unremarkable, without any particular technique, but it contained an incredibly terrifying sword intent!

This sword intent contained an indomitable momentum. The mere aura emanating from the sword intent was enough to make even a True God Realm cultivator feel a chill run down their spine, as if this sword was aimed directly at them!

boom!

The terrifying sword light struck the stone door, but the stone door remained completely still, not even trembling.

Seeing this scene.

Master Tianbao shook his head. “Fellow Daoist’s sword strike was incredibly powerful, but unfortunately it still couldn’t break through the stone gate. It seems that brute force won’t be enough to open the stone gate.”

No one refuted his words, after all, even the Xuanxian had never opened this door.

Among the people present, there were no Xuanxian (mystical immortals), at most they were Tianxian (celestial immortals).

The man in blue frowned, clearly dissatisfied with the result, but knowing that his strength was still far inferior to that of the Xuanxian Ancestor, he did not continue to attack.

“Does anyone else want to try?” Master Tianbao looked around.

“I’ll do it!”

Another person stepped out. He was a middle-aged man surrounded by celestial light, clearly a celestial being!

“An immortal from the Cloud Cultivation Immortal Sect of the Cloud Cultivation Realm!” Many people stared intently at them.

The Cloud Cultivation Realm is extremely famous among the Six Realms.

Because the Cloud Cultivation Immortal Sect is rumored to be a lineage left over from ancient times.

The middle-aged man respectfully took out a precious mirror from his bosom. The mirror had an ancient and simple design, but the aura it emitted was like that of an ancient and wild wilderness, extremely powerful and awe-inspiring.

Despite the crack on the mirror, its aura was still awe-inspiring, causing the expressions of the important figures present to change.

“A top-grade immortal artifact!”

“A supreme magical artifact that only ancient immortals could forge and create!”

Someone exclaimed in surprise.

When ancient immortals are mentioned, no one can help but feel awe, because they are beings who have successfully overcome eighteen life-and-death tribulations on the path to immortality. In the current six realms, no one has reached that point.

“Although it is somewhat damaged, it still contains the power of a true immortal, and perhaps it can truly shake this stone gate!”

Master Tianbao narrowed his eyes slightly.

Although the Myriad Treasures Realm has a rich foundation, incredible wealth, and an abundance of immortal artifacts.

However, treasures of the highest grade, such as top-grade immortal artifacts, are not comparable to ordinary immortal artifacts; they are completely different concepts.

“open!”

The immortal from the Cloud Cultivation Realm shouted, and a beam of immortal light shot out from the surface of the treasure mirror in his hand, with strands of innate laws formed by the power of true immortals spreading out.

For a moment, many people present felt an urge to prostrate themselves in worship, because the pressure of the true immortal’s aura was too astonishing!

However, everyone was filled with anticipation, as if they could already see the stone gate being opened by the divine light formed by the power of the true immortal.

The celestial light struck the stone gate, but was bounced away and shattered with a bang.

The stone gate remained completely still, as if a true immortal had arrived. Without the correct method, one could not even budge the stone gate in the slightest!

“How is this possible…”

The immortals of the Cloud Cultivation Realm couldn’t help but exclaim in surprise upon seeing this scene.

In most people’s minds, the power of a true immortal is omnipotent, representing the ultimate path to immortality!

No matter if you are a human immortal, an earth immortal, a celestial immortal, a mystical immortal, or a golden immortal, you are not qualified to call yourselves immortals in front of a true immortal!

“it’s useless.”

Just then.

The young cultivator from the Heavenly Sword Realm who had made the move earlier shook his head. “When I unleashed that sword strike just now, the immortal sword contained an extremely restrained power of a true immortal.”

Upon hearing this, everyone was startled, because when this person made his move, no one had noticed the aura of a true immortal contained in that sword strike.

This shows that this person’s cultivation of swordsmanship has reached an unimaginable level. He can even conceal the power of a true immortal to the extreme, so much so that the celestial immortals present cannot detect it.

For a moment, everyone fell silent.

If you cannot open this door, it means you cannot explore the opportunities and fortunes of the ancient celestial palace.

Of the six realms, apart from the Azure Realm, the other five realms all have Xuanxian (mysterious immortals). However, the Xuanxian did not personally descend, which means that even the Xuanxian knew how difficult it was to open this door.

The reason why the ancestors of the Xuanxian Realm did not come was partly because the stone gate could not be opened, and partly because once the stone gate was opened, what kind of opportunities or dangers would they encounter after entering the ancient immortal palace?

Therefore, when the ancient celestial palace appeared in the world, even the top powers sent celestial immortals to explore the way.

Unless some amazing, extraordinary opportunity or destiny has truly been discovered.

Otherwise, the immortal would most likely not have come.

At the back of the crowd, Lu Jiu and his group were almost invisible.

Although Cang Qingzi was a celestial being, he was used to living a lowly life, keeping his aura contained within his body and not deliberately releasing it to show off his status as a celestial being and old demon.

Although Xu Taiyi was concerned about his reputation and image, he didn’t dare to show off in front of Lu Jiu. Besides, with his cultivation level as a Human Immortal, he really couldn’t show off much here.

“Let’s all set up a formation together, using it to gather everyone’s power together, and see what happens?” someone suggested.

“It’s useless. Even if all the immortals and celestial beings present join forces to form an array, can it rival the might of a true immortal?”

“What can we do then? Are we just going to stand by and watch?”

“As Master Tianbao said, perhaps this door cannot be opened by brute force at all; we need to find other ways and take a different approach.”

Many powerful individuals exchanged ideas and discussed the matter.

“I can push this door open.”

Just then, a voice slowly came over, and none of the people present were weak, so they naturally heard it clearly.

In an instant, everyone looked toward the source of the sound. What came into view was a young man who looked slightly handsome, with a calm and composed smile on his face and a composed and indifferent demeanor.

However, when they sensed that this person’s cultivation level was only at the Qi Refining Realm, many people’s expressions immediately darkened.

Even celestial beings and true immortals have taken action, yet they still couldn’t budge the stone gate in the slightest.

You, a mere Qi Refining Realm ant, dare to spout such arrogant words?

Master Tianbao’s eyes narrowed, and he looked at Lu Jiu with a smile, “Is what you said true, fellow Daoist?”

He did not look down on Lu Jiu just because Lu Jiu was only at the Qi Refining Realm.

In fact, a shrewd and experienced person like him wouldn’t easily look down on anyone.

After all, if it were any normal person, a cultivator at the Qi Refining Realm, dared to say such a thing in front of so many immortals, would they think they were living too long?

At first glance, Master Tianbao noticed this seemingly young cultivator, and the people following him were all led by him.

Two of the three women were at the Nascent Soul stage, which was insignificant, but there was one woman whom even he, at the peak of the Celestial Immortal realm, could not see through!

There were also two elders, one of whom was at the Human Immortal realm, and the other was actually at the Heavenly Immortal realm with his aura contained!

Despite being only at the Qi Refining stage, he was surrounded by these people and made their leader.

How could it be an ordinary Qi Refining Realm cultivator?

“Opening the door isn’t difficult, but I don’t quite agree with the conditions you just mentioned,” Lu Jiu said calmly.

People like Master Tianbao are very shrewd businessmen.

But that doesn’t mean everyone is like him.

Some people are used to being high and mighty, bossy and condescending.

For example, the middle-aged cultivator who had just used the incomplete True Immortal artifact couldn’t help but sneer upon hearing this, “How dare a mere ant spout such nonsense?”

“boom!”

Without Lu Jiu needing to speak, Cang Qingzi raised his hand and produced a jade bottle.

The jade bottle floated into the air, emanating a vast and boundless celestial light. A terrifying aura, surpassing even that of celestial beings, instantly spread across the scene, overwhelming everything!

“A top-grade immortal artifact!”

“And it’s a top-tier magic weapon among high-grade immortal artifacts!”

Many people’s expressions changed drastically.

The mouth of the jade bottle was facing downwards, locking onto the middle-aged man from the Cloud Cultivation Realm.

The man’s expression changed drastically, and he hurriedly took out the broken mirror. The atmosphere instantly became tense.

A superior-grade immortal artifact, corresponding to the Xuanxian level.

Although it cannot compare to a true immortal’s magic weapon, it is not much worse than a damaged true immortal’s magic weapon.

Because the flawed magic artifacts of true immortals have a major drawback: the more times they are used, the more flawed they become, until they are completely rendered useless!

The reason it is incomplete is because the damage is beyond repair.

This jade bottle, a celestial artifact, was a fine piece of a mystical immortal artifact that Lu Jiu had collected on his way here. It contained the innate black water law, which perfectly matched the law that Cang Qingzi cultivated.

Heavenly soldiers and generals are at most at the Golden Immortal realm. There is only one person like Immortal King Xu Shan. True Immortal artifacts are not as common as cabbages; they cannot be picked up casually.

When Cang Qingzi unleashes his power with the cultivation of a Celestial Immortal, unless the opponent possesses a Celestial Artifact of the same or higher level, he can almost completely overwhelm the vast majority within the Celestial Immortal realm!

In the past, Cang Qingzi was always cautious and meticulous in his actions, to the extreme.

Now that Lu Jiu is backing him up, this old tortoise is definitely standing tall!

“How dare you disrespect the Supreme One! You’re courting death! Does your Cloud Cultivation Sect want to be wiped out?!”

Cang Qingzi’s hunched body was now standing straight, his hair flying wildly, his eyes wide open, revealing his fierce power!

Upon seeing this, Lu Jiu’s face darkened slightly.

That old turtle, what you’re saying sounds like something a villain would
