Rebirth as a Willow Tree, building the strongest tribe in all of eternity Chapter 1153

Chapter 1153: Chapter 727: Mulong Life and Ancient Guidance Palace_2 Chapter 1153: Chapter 727: Mulong Life and Ancient Guidance Palace_2 Tu Wa Zi, Gu Chen, and others also gathered around, forming a dense crowd, all staring intently at Mu Chang Sheng following Shi Hao's gaze.

They naturally knew about the curse of eternal life.

Back in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, Jiang Hui had once explained this matter to them–albeit not in great detail, knowing the general idea was sufficient.

They had met both Qin Chang Sheng and Wang Chang Sheng.

One was the ancient patriarch of Mount Immortal, swaying right before their eyes, and the other was the patriarch of the Eternal Family.

Not only had they seen them but had also interacted with them.

It was only this last individual effected by the curse of eternal life–Mu Chang Sheng–whom they had neither seen nor interacted with.

His name had circulated, but he seemed to have evaporated from the mortal world.

Had they not rushed over together, they might still be unaware of who exactly Mu Chang Sheng was.

Suddenly being stared at by so many people,
Mu Chang Sheng immediately looked startled, and his whole demeanor became extremely unnatural, looking at Shi Hao and the others with a clueless expression.

Had it not been for the fact that Shi Hao and the others did not strike, Mu Chang Sheng might have thought that another chaotic being had escaped from the Dark Cage behind him.

“Legend has it that your uniqueness is second only to Wang Chang Sheng, having replaced all your blood. Logically, if you were to start over, regardless of talent or state of mind, you should be the best among the three. So, why do you seem to be the most destitute now?”

Tu Wa Zi scrutinized him a few times and asked out loud before Shi Hao could speak, his face full of confusion and surprise.

Hearing this, Shi Hao was slightly taken aback.

To be honest, he knew the name of each of the three involved in the curse of eternal life. As for what exactly Mu Chang Sheng had obtained, he really did not know, and Qin Chang Sheng had never told him either.

Shi Hao specifically glanced at Qin Chang Sheng.

He found that the other's reaction was similar to his own.

Both appeared quite surprised.

It seemed that it wasn't intentional concealment; even he was not clear about it.

Though the three of them were all part of the curse of eternal life, they presumably were not familiar with each other at that time, and when they obtained the relic of eternal life, their perception might have been obscured, so the remnants of the fallen Immortal King did not want them to understand each other too deeply.

Hearing Tu Wa Zi's words, the one who reacted the most was Mu Chang Sheng.

He was stunned for a long time before he finally spoke.

His eyes filled with an even deeper sense of vicissitude as he looked at Tu Wa Zi, his voice somewhat hoarse: “How did you know I obtained the eternal blood?”

“What, is this matter very secretive?”

Tu Wa Zi slightly raised his eyebrows, unflinchingly replied.

“This matter is indeed very secretive, which is why I am puzzled!” Mu Chang Sheng solemnly nodded.

“If you really want to know why, you can come with us; otherwise, we have nothing to tell you!” Banished Immortal stepped out of the crowd, looking at Mu Chang Sheng and said decisively.

Tu Wa Zi remained non-committal.

“Alright!” Mu Chang Sheng pondered for two seconds, hesitantly nodded.

“Can you answer our question now? Logically, your opportunity should have been the greatest, so why are you only in the Void Path Realm now?” Tu Wa Zi continued to ask.

Mu Chang Sheng sighed.

“The so-called curse of eternal life is actually caused by some beings at the level of the Immortal King.

In the days of yore, unimaginable great purges occurred naturally, and some Immortal Kings and even giants perished.

But they left behind their bones and blood, which contained their regrets and reluctance.

Thus, with those so-called relics of immortality, they tempt the world. When there is a suitable target, the relic of immortality would automatically find its master.

The advantage is that it can help one quickly enhance their strength, but in the end, it is merely making wedding clothes for others, a point which I suppose Fellow Daoist Qin has already deeply experienced.”

At that moment, Mu Changsheng glanced at Qin Changsheng standing by his side.

The differences between the two were indeed stark.

One still appeared in the prime of his life,
while the other seemed as if he were walking towards his twilight years, his hair completely gray. Essentially, there was no difference; the only distinction was that Qin Changsheng was able to resist temptations, experiencing the least influence.

Feeling Mu Changsheng's gaze, Qin Changsheng nodded noncommittally.

The price of making wedding clothes for others was indeed too heavy.

If one completely indulged in the cultivation speed brought by the artifacts of immortality, once it reached a certain extent, the Fairy King Giants who had died in the great purge would come back by employing some bizarre methods and pathways to seize the owner's Primordial Spirit using the residual Immortal King's blood.

“Among the three of us, my cultivation speed should be the fastest, because the Immortal King's blood in me is not confined to any one area but flows throughout my body.

Whether it's the internal organs or the limbs and bones, or even the nerves, all are places that the King's blood can reach.

While still in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, I had already reached the Supreme Extreme Peak Realm early on. My peers, even the Celestial Gods, were not considered on my level, I was even slightly stronger than Wang Changsheng.

However, the price I paid was extremely heavy. I found my God Soul becoming increasingly dull, my body and Primordial Spirit increasingly incompatible. I grew fearful and wanted to stop it all, but by then it was already too late…”

Mu Changsheng shook his head slightly and sighed, “The artifacts of immortality might be able to defy the heavens and change fate, but what they bring along is more of a curse. They grant you tremendous power in a short time, but the price is your soul and Primordial Spirit. Once you become the vessel for those Fairy King Giants to resurrect, your existence will be completely erased. To cut off all these, I did not hesitate to seal my Primordial Spirit and sever the major channels of my body, thus becoming this neither human nor ghost state.

Because unlike the other two, they only had singular artifacts of immortality, but the King's blood I received contained the lingering thoughts of countless Immortal Kings. After they died, the King's blood converged together…”

Mu Changsheng couldn't help but sigh as he spoke, having once been infinitely glorious, suppressing a generation's geniuses. However, as glorious as he was back then, he was now equally wretched.

He still had some incomprehension though.

He had only stepped into the Supreme Realm, so why was the Immortal King's blood so eager to resurrect and seize his body?

Keep in mind, if the erosion isn't deep, even the lingering thoughts of an Immortal King might not successfully seize a body, let alone so many seeking to take control of one body.

“What about Wang Changsheng? His background was the most special, logically, he should also have been captured, right?” Tu Wa Zi looked around, he wasn't very close to Wang Changsheng, but since the adult had discussed the calamity of immortality, he had some impression.

“Having the artifacts of immortality within, none can escape, he just had different arrangements and was sent out,” Mu Changsheng hoarsely said.

Under the plots of those beings at the King's Domain, they had no real power for a counterattack, merely puppets on strings.

This sense of powerlessness was like up until now, they still didn't know exactly who had captured them.

“Your situation is really quite peculiar!” Tu Wa remarked in amazement.

Logically speaking, so much King's blood merging together, a normal person would have exploded and died long ago, yet Mu Changsheng was still able to persist until now, his physique was indeed marvelous.

“Brother Shi Hao, now that everyone has been found, what are your plans next?” Shaking his head, Tu Wa Zi looked back at Shi Hao.

“Let's head back to the Heavenly Court first, then make a trip to the Lower Realm, it's been a long time since I last returned to Stone Village!” Shi Hao pondered.

“That's a good idea, when that time comes, give me a shout, and I will go down with you to pay respects to Grandpa Shi and the others.”

Tu Wa Zi nodded as he spoke.

Shi Hao agreed with a nod.

Tu Wa Zi had a good relationship with Shi Yun Feng, he had mooched several meals in Stone Village and, when leaving, even took one of the village's cauldrons.

“What about this Ancient Guidance Palace?”

Gu Chen's voice sounded.

He stood tall, his eyes emitting a purple glow. While the others talked, he had already walked several laps around this grand palace, even tapping on its surface.

No sound emerged, this ancient palace seemed to possess the ability to absorb all external sounds.

“This thing probably isn't anything good, might not be worth much…” Tu Wa Zi remarked as he quickly walked, somewhat dispirited.

The adult had just personally come here and subdued the nine-headed beast.

From what he knew of the adult, if this Ancient Guidance Palace had been something valuable, it wouldn't have been left here.

Qin Changsheng, Qin Hao, and Mu Changsheng's eyelids twitched.

In their eyes, this palace was certainly not something good, it was simply a symbol of chaos and disaster. The time they spent inside made them develop almost inhuman urges, subconsciously wanting to keep their distance.
