The Tianliang Star Lord paused slightly before continuing.
"It is rumored that the Eternal Forbidden Zone’s formation is somewhat related to the Xuan Ming Great God. After her fall, a part of her spirit and fragments of Ancestral Qi fell into this place, along with some of her legacy and the Profound Nether Treasure hidden here!"
Wu Chun Immortal Monarch’s eyes revealed waves of emotions, but his face showed a look of surprise.
"Is that so? I’ve guarded this place for tens of thousands of years, so why am I unaware of such secrets!"
He shook his head slightly and said.
"There are too many rumors in the Celestial Realm; we need not take them seriously, as most of these so-called secrets are false!"
The Tianliang Star Lord smiled slightly and chuckled.
"Who knows the truth from falsehood!"
Pausing slightly, he added.
"However, I have a friend who participated in the ancient war, and he claimed to have personally seen that after the fall of the Xuan Ming Great God, the Divine Position Treasure fell into this area, speaking with great assurance!"
Wu Chun Immortal Monarch raised his head and glanced at the Tianliang Star Lord, pondering for a moment before speaking.
"The three Supreme Treasures of the Eternal Ice Castle, the All Heaven Profound Nether Divine Banner, Profound Nether Divine Seal, and Profound Nether Divine Staff indeed have some connection with the Xuan Ming Great God. But according to legends, they were forged by the Ancient Celestial Emperor using the deceased bones after Xuan Ming’s fall. As for whether there is a Profound Nether Divine Position here, I truly do not know!"
He spoke calmly at this moment.
"I hope there is a secret stash of the Xuan Ming Great God’s Divine Position left behind!"
His path relied on the eternity and cold of this place, intending to reshape a Postnatal Profound Ice Ancestral Qi, transforming it into an Ancestral Qi Dao Fruit.
If he could obtain the Profound Nether Divine Position, his foundation would naturally increase immensely.
He might even inherit the Divine Position legacy of the Xuan Ming Great God, as well as the name of Xuan Ming.
For those incredible Divine Dao Powerhouses, acquiring their Divine Position would cause one’s own Dao Practice to surge to unimaginable heights.
This, in fact, was the biggest secret deep in his heart.
But today, it was revealed by the Tianliang Star Lord in a single sentence.
It seems quite a few Immortal Gods are interested in the Eternal Ice Castle!
Wu Chun Immortal Monarch felt a hint of unease deep within.
Noticing Wu Chun Immortal Monarch’s hesitation, the Tianliang Star Lord knew the time was not right and did not push him further.
He simply said, "Recently, that person has spread his Ancestral Qi throughout all heavens. We have been fully deducing it lately, and we should soon infer his path and the flaws in his Ancestral Qi to handle it accordingly."
Wu Chun Immortal Monarch’s eyes brightened.
"It looks like I won’t have to wait too long!"
The Tianliang Star Lord replied calmly.
"We do not have much patience!"
After a brief drink, he transformed into a starlight and returned above the nine heavens.
Remaining there, Wu Chun Immortal Monarch had a somewhat gloomy look deep in his eyes.
Not being able to control the Eternal Ice Castle was still too passive for him.
But after these interactions, he knew that the new Eternal Trace Ice Castle Celestial Monarch was not easy to deal with.
However, he must find a way to make the other leave this place.
Otherwise, he would never be able to access the Divine Position Treasure, and even if he could, it might still slip from his grasp.
...
Inside the Eternal Ice Crystal Divine Hall, the purple-gold divine light enveloped this Giant Divine Hall, transforming it into a Mountain and River Boundary, merging invisibly with countless ice-blue radiance.
At this moment, the three Eternal Supreme Divine Treasures flew out from the wooden box on the table.
A huge dark-colored long banner, inlaid with gray-white patterns.
A profound golden Treasure Seal, surrounded by countless Great Dao Patterns related to eternity, rain, and snow.
The other one was a huge Profound Nether White Bone Divine Staff, with the staff made of bones, and at the top, there was a large gemstone named the Heart of Profound Nether. It looked like a large, jet-black pupil, still spinning and possessing a soul-shaking, ice-sealing, eternal power.
The three Supreme Divine Treasures resonated in the void, with Zhang Jian seated cross-legged below.
Eternal Profound Nether Divine Light descended from above his head, and at this moment, his Dao Heart seemed to enter a state of primordial, eternal ice-sealed extinction, where time and space had no flow, and everything was submerged in annihilation.
Endless darkness, eternity, and loneliness began to corrode his heart.
Under the nourishment of darkness, eternity, and solitude, various distractions began to flourish fiercely.
The Monkey Mind appeared wildly.
Only, Zhang Jian had long forged a Dao Heart as hard as steel and iron, his form manifesting a layer of colorful flames.
That was the Vast Flame.
This flame could incinerate all distractions.
At that moment, in Zhang Jian’s mind seemed to resonate only one phrase.
"Earth, water, wind, and fire are all void, perception, attachment, and perception are unreal, and to me, there is no method in the world."
"Only my unique method!"
The vast Earth Emperor Ancestral Qi flowed out from it, evolving the appearance of Three Thousand Dao Qi, each forming a Law Light Path.
These Three Thousand Dao Qi were not literal and became even more multidimensional and diverse with the evolution of Earth Emperor Ancestral Qi in the All Heavens Void.
However, guiding the Dao Heart from countless changes to ascend and comprehend the Heaven and Earth Dao Laws from another near-Dao perspective still required him to form a complete Daoist Monarch worldview.
Luckily, he was not comprehending from scratch.
Possessing the vantage of Innate Spiritual Treasures and the sacred made enlightening the Dao Heart just a matter of time.
...
Deep inside the Eternal Ice Prison, the seventh layer of the Eternal Ice Prison.
Large movements caused the ice prison to tremble, and from within came non-human roars.
From afar, numerous prison guards gathered in front of the giant cell, shock evident in their eyes.
"It’s not good, how could this Immortal Monarch suddenly have a Demon Poison outbreak?"
"If he becomes a Fallen Immortal, we will not be able to handle it!"
...
Inside the cell at this moment, a strong demonic qi seemed to emanate intermittently, and upon seeing such changes, many observing prison guards did not dare to slack off and promptly chose to progressively report it.
Currently, the Prison God guarding the Eternal Ice Prison had been decapitated by the Celestial Court on the Immortal Slaying Platform, and the new Prison God had yet to assume office, so the message naturally reached Zhang Jian’s desk.
On this day, Zhang Jian was awakened by the commotion outside.
Within the Eternal Ice Crystal Hall, Zhang Jian opened his eyes, his presence akin to having an incomparably lofty and grand demeanor, in harmony with the Great Dao of the heavens.
It was as if he was akin to the Heavenly Dao in the void, albeit with less divinity and more humanity.
Zhang Jian understood this state was actually approaching the Daoist Monarch perspective.
Yet, his Dao Heart had not yet successfully transcended, thus unable to freely exit or maintain this state.
As the Divine Aspect gradually receded around Zhang Jian, a faint smile appeared in his eyes.
Accomplishing this step in under a thousand years, the Innate Creation Cyan Lotus had played a crucial role.
Emulating the unique perspective of the Thirty-Six Great Chaos Cyan Lotus would surely not go wrong.
However, to convert this unique perspective into one suitable for his own Dao Heart, Primordial Spirit, and Immortal Body, still required time and refinement.
At this moment, he also connected with the Void Spirit Body remaining in the Eternal Ice Castle Celestial Monarch’s Mansion, understanding the whole situation immediately.
Deep inside the Eternal Ice Prison, an Immortal God had become a Fallen Immortal.
According to protocol, he should execute this Fallen Immortal and then report to the Celestial Court.
However, the backstory of this Fallen Immortal God was very special and could not be casually executed, hence requiring Zhang Jian to personally emerge from seclusion.
Eternally stepping out from the Eternal Ice Crystal Divine Hall, he transformed into a stream of light and headed towards the void to Escape Form.
From afar, he saw several Immortal Officials waiting in front of the ice prison.
Spiritual Martial Immortal Official Yuan Jiang, along with a slender Purple Robed Immortal, wearing Python Robe and Jade Belt.
Gu Ning Daoist.
This was an Inspector Immortal Official sent by the Celestial Court.
This Immortal Official had been in seclusion and actually emerged this time.
As soon as Zhang Jian arrived, the Immortal Gods saluted quickly. Zhang Jian waved his hand and stepped directly into the Eternal Ice Prison, heading towards the seventh layer of the Eternal Ice Prison.
At this moment, deep within the seventh layer, countless terrifying demonic qi swirled within, accompanied by fearsome dragon roars.
This was a powerful Dragon God!
Zhang Jian caught sight and immediately sensed trouble.
He was aware of the identity of this Dragon God in the seventh layer of the Eternal Ice Prison. He hailed from the Celestial Realm Dimension Four Seas Dragon Race, with an extraordinary background.
The implications ran deep.
If not absolutely necessary, Zhang Jian truly did not wish to behead him.
Moreover, with his Dao Practice, he shouldn’t have fallen into becoming a Fallen Immortal so quickly, right?
