Immortal and Martial Dual Cultivation-Novel2

Chapter 1463: As You Wish

"I have a question."

After putting everything away, Xiao Chen looked at the Heavenly Profound Holy Lady and asked, "Where is your true body?"

The Heavenly Profound Holy Lady was surprised that Xiao Chen would ask this. She shook her head and replied, "I don't know. I'm only a strand of lingering thought. After my true body successfully cultivated as a Ghost Immortal, she left this abandoned land."

"How did she leave?"

"I'm not sure. I do not know anything about what happened after she left."

When Xiao Chen heard this, he could not help feeling doubts. Since that was so, who could truly verify that the Heavenly Profound Holy Lady managed to become a Ghost Immortal?

There were only some legends. However, why would the Penglai Sea's people come because of a baseless legend, spending so many years preparing for it?

Furthermore, they even sent two Immortal Venerates and sacrificed so many experts. This was rather strange.

Someone had to have given them definitive information, proving that there were Ghost Immortals. That was the only possible reason for the Penglai Sea's group to be so crazy about this.

However, who was this person?

Could this person have seen the true body of the Heavenly Profound Holy Lady after she became a Ghost Immortal and wanted to use the Penglai Sea's people to scout the way out?

As for the way to cultivate as a Ghost Immortal, after Xiao Chen obtained more information from the Heavenly Profound Holy Lady, he came to realize that aside from her, there would not be a second person who could successfully become a Ghost Immortal.

No one else was as excellent as her and as determined, to the point of being ruthless to herself and abandoning even her own heart.

Even if others knew how the Heavenly Profound Holy Lady became a Ghost Immortal, no one would be able to succeed.

"Please fulfill the promise, then; get me the Cycle Arts." Xiao Chen stopped thinking about this and raised the main purpose of this trip.

The Heavenly Profound Holy Lady stretched out her hand, and a painting appeared in front of them from out of nowhere. Inside the painting was a scene of the Cyclic Astral Palace's group of people doing their best to break a restriction.

At the center of the restriction was an ancient black secret manual, placed on a stone pedestal, with the word "Cycle" written in an ancient script.

The Sun Palace's Palace Master Chu Tian looked at the Cycle Arts secret manual on the stone pedestal with anticipation. He wished that he could immediately charge over and take the secret manual away.

However, he still retained his rationality. No matter how close they were, they had to wait for the restriction to be completely broken before retrieving the secret manual.

The restrictions of the Mirage Immortal Palace were no trivial matter. While it looked like there was nothing, in reality, there were three formations within just one step. The formations had formations within them.

The Heavenly Profound Holy Lady gently tapped on where the Cycle Arts secret manual was and closed her eyes for a moment.

"Whoosh!"

The Cycle Arts on the stone pedestal suddenly vanished right before Chu Tian's eyes, disappearing mysteriously.

"What's going on? Why did the Cycle Arts secret manual disappear?!" Chu Tian shouted in shock, finding this incredible. He had never heard of such a strange thing happening before.

Inside the painting, Chu Tian appeared both shocked and livid, extremely frustrated and losing his grace. However, this was normal. After experiencing such a strange thing, anyone would be like this.

When the painting vanished, the black Cycle Arts secret manual appeared in front of Xiao Chen out of nowhere. Then, he reached out and grasped it.

Xiao Chen somewhat felt like he was dreaming. This was too easy. Was this really the Cycle Arts?

However, the item in his hand was very heavy and possessed an ancient aura. There was no way that it was fake.

Xiao Chen flipped the secret manual open and carefully checked it with a serious expression. The Cycle Arts was very important. He had no leeway for carelessness. He could not wait until the next time the Mirage Immortal Palace appeared again if there was some mistake.

After a while, he finally verified that the item in his hands was the genuine Cycle Arts. It was not fake.

The Heavenly Profound Holy Lady had not cheated Xiao Chen. In the end, she fulfilled her promise. A heartless person would not have the heart to cheat others.

"Many thanks." Xiao Chen expressed his gratitude as he carefully put away the Cycle Arts secret manual.

Unexpectedly, he managed to obtain the Cycle Arts so easily. It was good that he could avoid fighting with the Sun Palace's Palace Master.

"You're welcome. This is just a part of the promise. The Universe Origin Fruit that I promised you is the true reward."

The Heavenly Profound Holy Lady showed neither joy nor grief, appearing extremely calm. Then, another painting appeared in front.

This time, it was the scene of an herb garden in the Mirage Immortal Palace. There were many strong Profound Beasts in the herb garden, which abounded with Spirit Herbs. There were venomous snakes, venomous bees, and strange birds hiding there.

A hemp-robed old man sneaked around the herb garden, heading towards a Spirit Fruit in its depths.

It was Mu Yong. Xiao Chen recognized this person with just one look. Unexpectedly, this old man managed to make it all the way here.

The Spirit Fruit looked ordinary; its color was not vibrant at all. It did not give off the feeling that would make one's eyes light up when they saw it.

Instead, it would be easily overlooked, unable to catch anyone's attention.

However, such a Spirit Fruit had the exact same appearance as the legendary Universe Origin Fruit.

Only when one focused and looked carefully would one discover that the uneven surface of this Spirit Fruit had a golden light, which was hard to look at, directly gathered in it.

After one stared at it for about seven to eight minutes, its image would suddenly turn resplendent with golden light in the mind. It was like an Immortal Lord who obtained the Dao, sitting cross-legged with eyes closed. action

The mysteries behind this could not be described with words.

"I found the seed of this Spirit Fruit in an Immortal Epoch Remnant back in the past. It finally matured after more than a million years. Even I have not eaten such a fruit before. Only such an Immortal Fruit is worthy of the help you provided me."

In the Heavenly Profound Holy Lady's opinion, the Cycle Arts was useless. The Universe Origin Fruit was a much more practical reward.

The Universe Origin Fruit, also named the Universe Origin Dao Fruit, was said to increase one's cultivation by one thousand years and make one instantly comprehend the Dao after consuming it.

Even if it was not as heaven-defying as the legends made it out to be, it would not be something ordinary, either. Otherwise, Immortals would not have fought over it.

At this moment, the hemp-robed old man was carefully edging towards the Universe Origin Fruit. When looking carefully, one would discover that his hair had grayed and his complexion was poor.

Only his eyes glittered as he stared at the Universe Origin Fruit.

Mu Yong was already severely poisoned. If he was not careful, he would die on the spot.

"You know this person?" the Heavenly Profound Holy Lady asked.

Xiao Chen nodded and replied, "We came in together."

"He is about to die. He is afflicted with at least seven kinds of unusual poisons. He will definitely die in another three steps."

"Is there any way to save him?" Xiao Chen asked.

After all, this was someone whom Xiao Chen met before. Xiao Chen was not an unfeeling person.

"You want to save him? He can't be saved. He should understand himself well, but greed blinded him. He sought out this death himself."

Right after the Heavenly Profound Holy Lady said that, the hemp-robed old man stumbled and keeled over, falling to the ground.

"No! I have not obtained the Universe Origin Fruit yet. I have not advanced to Prime yet! I cannot die…"

The hemp-robed old man roared in dissatisfaction. An enormous snake stuck out its forked tongue and tasted the air as it slowly slithered over. Then, it opened its mouth and swallowed him up.

At this point, the painting disappeared, and the Universe Origin Fruit appeared out of nowhere. Like the Cycle Arts secret manual, it turned up mysteriously at this blood lake.

Even though Xiao Chen had seen many deaths, he was still somewhat shocked at this. The hemp-robed old man was very capable, but he still ended up dying like that.

Despite him waiting for several decades and arriving at the Mirage Immortal Palace after much difficulty, things still ended this way.

As Xiao Chen held this Universe Origin Fruit, he found it somewhat heavy. He was also somewhat surprised, not having expected this Immortal Fruit to fall into his hands in the end.

Before Xiao Chen came here, he did not even think about it. As long as he managed to obtain the Cycle Arts, his trip to the Mirage Immortal Palace could be considered perfect already.

"You should quickly work on recovering from your injuries. If you leave them be, they will become difficult to deal with later," the Heavenly Profound Holy Lady said.

Xiao Chen put away the Universe Origin Fruit and looked at the Heavenly Profound Holy Lady. "What about you?"

"Me?"

The Heavenly Profound Holy Lady shook her head and said, "I'm just a strand of lingering thoughts. Now that I've achieved my goal, it does not matter whether I exist or not. I'll just peacefully accompany this Immortal palace."

Xiao Chen felt stunned at first; then, he felt a trace of bitterness. In the end, this was a heartless person. This painting that could induce grief even in an outsider like him was merely a goal for her to achieve.

Suddenly, Xiao Chen thought of something. His expression changed slightly, and he stopped thinking about treating his injuries.

"There should be a group of experts wearing scarlet clothes in the Mirage Immortal Palace. Can you help me check where this group of people is?"

Xiao Chen nearly forgot about them. This strange faction was worth paying attention to.

The Blood Clad Sect was very mysterious in the first place. Their movements after entering the Mirage Immortal Palace were incredibly strange as well. The strangest thing was that the restriction that Immortal Venerate Ming Yue left behind at the doors had not blocked this group of people, either.

Back then, Xiao Chen could not help taking the risk and going through the restriction because of his suspicions.

Although the Heavenly Profound Holy Lady could not directly attack people in this Immortal palace, she clearly still had some means available to her. It would be a waste not to use them.
