Chapter 1870: Chapter 572: Xuanhuang Sect After 200,000 Years, Conquering 15,000 Worlds
“The most valuable item in the treasure vault is this Absolute Immortal Artifact.”
“It is also the Feathered Ascetic’s life-bound Immortal Artifact—Freedom Wings.”
Zhou Sui squinted his eyes.
He saw within the treasure vault a piece of Absolute Immortal Artifact; it appeared to be entirely transparent, carved with special wings, and covered with countless mysterious runes.
It was as if these wings merged into the depths of space and time, impossible to perceive its true physical location.
To know that the reason for Feathered Ascetic’s rise was his accidental acquisition of this Absolute Immortal Artifact, Freedom Wings, whose abilities are infinitely wondrous.
Once refined, the Artifact grants incredible speed that allows effortless teleportation over billions of kilometers.
It also harnesses the power of wings to evade enemy attacks.
It can even easily cross numerous Prohibition Arrays, effortlessly infiltrating some restricted areas.
Using the might of this Absolute Immortal Artifact, Feathered Ascetic ventured deep into one forbidden area after another, acquiring countless treasures.
Even when chased by enemies, he could easily escape.
This is why Feathered Ascetic could survive for so long, progressing in cultivation to the Great Luo Golden Immortal Level.
Truth be told, in the past battle with Four Sea Daoist, Feathered Ascetic truly underestimated Four Sea Daoist too much, thinking the opponent was merely a minor Golden Immortal unworthy of mention, thus engaging him directly.
Who would have expected that Four Sea Daoist could be so ferocious, and with the power of an Absolute Immortal Artifact, was enough to rival a Great Luo Golden Immortal, leaving Feathered Ascetic severely wounded.
Had Feathered Ascetic used Freedom Wings to maneuver against the opponent, things wouldn’t have turned out this way.
But in this world, there is no “if.”
Precisely due to Feathered Ascetic’s momentary negligence and excessive pride, leading to such consequences.
Yet Feathered Ascetic’s excessive carelessness couldn’t be entirely blamed.
After all, the opponent was merely a Golden Immortal, who would have thought he could truly rival a Great Luo Golden Immortal?
If he were to avoid the battle with a mere Golden Immortal, where would his dignity lie?
“Such a life-bound Immortal Artifact is placed in the treasure vault, instead of being carried personally.”
“Is Feathered Ascetic prepared for his own demise?”
Zhou Sui squinted his eyes.
He instantly understood Feathered Ascetic’s intention in detaching Freedom Wings.
Probably due to Feathered Ascetic’s worry about not surviving the impending doom, thus becoming a Dao-transformed creature.
Once transformed into a Dao creature, with Freedom Wings on him, he would likely be uncontrollable.
Hence, before shutting himself away, Feathered Ascetic chose to detach Freedom Wings and placed it in the treasure vault.
If he could pass the calamity, retrieving Freedom Wings would be no issue.
After all, staying within Feather Gate was extremely safe.
He didn’t need this Absolute Immortal Artifact for protection.
“What a pity, Feathered Ascetic hasn’t died yet.”
“This Absolute Immortal Artifact cannot be used anytime soon.”
Zhou Sui felt regret.
After all, this is Feathered Ascetic’s life-bound Immortal Artifact, wholly refined by him.
Unless Feathered Ascetic dies completely and the soul imprint within fades away, it cannot be used by others.
Yet, for Zhou Sui, this wasn’t too big of a problem.
After all, the time of Feathered Ascetic’s demise was up to him to decide.
Moreover, the Absolute Immortal Artifact was already in his possession, and no one else could acquire it.
After inventorying for an hour, he also discovered many secret treasures.
But he chose not to recount them one by one.
To Zhou Sui, the most helpful were the Bodhi Immortal Fruit and the Absolute Immortal Artifact, Freedom Wings.
Swoosh!
At this moment, Zhou Sui cheerfully exited Feathered Ascension Peak, returning to Zhen Suyan’s abode.
“What? The master means the Sect Master is close to Dao transformation?”
“Almost became a Dao creature?”
Upon hearing this, Zhen Suyan was suddenly shocked.
If it really transformed into a Great Luo Golden Immortal Level Dao creature, the entire Chu State Continent wouldn’t know how many calamities it would suffer, nor how many people would perish.
Not to mention Chu State Continent, even just within Feather Gate, all Immortals would likely perish.
“That’s correct, but you needn’t worry.”
“He is now sealed by me.”
“At least for a million years, he will not completely transform.”
“He can still persist for quite a long time.”
“Of course, if my cultivation continues to rise, I can further delay his transformation speed.”
“In short, there won’t be any issues for some time.”
Zhou Sui reassured her.
“In that case, wouldn’t the entire Feather Gate be under the master’s control?”
Zhen Suyan’s eyes lit up instantly.
Initially, she worried her actions might be discovered by Feathered Ascetic.
At such time, she might suffer.
Now, however, things changed.
Feathered Ascetic was now in a half-dead state, sealed by the master.
This means at present, the entire Feather Gate was under her master’s control.
And she became the empress, above all but him.
There was indeed nothing better than this.
“Exactly, a bold reform of Feather Gate can start now.”
“We could even unify the entire Chu State Continent, fortifying it like an impregnable fortress.”
Zhou Sui nodded.
“Yes, master.”
Zhen Suyan clenched her delicate fists, considering that following her master, her vision shouldn’t be restricted only to Chu State.
She should also cast her eyes on other human territories, possibly even the entire Immortal World.
