Eternal Sacred King - Chapter 2703

2703 Martial Domain Realm
Green Firmament Immortal Domain.

The Sect Master of the Academy, King Yun You and the other Immortal Kings dispersed. Some experts and factions that were initially camping around the Battle Kingdom restlessly also calmed down temporarily.

The combat strength displayed by Lin Zhan was way too powerful. He fought against six Immortal Kings almost singlehandedly!

As long as Lin Zhan presided over the Battle Kingdom, it would be difficult for anyone to take it down.

Battle Kingdom Palace.

“Why did you stop me from attacking the Sect Master of the Academy previously?” Lin Zhan looked at Immortal Queen Ling Long beside him and asked with a frown.

Immortal Queen Ling Long had a grim expression. “The Sect Master of the Academy hid his cultivation. His combat strength should have already broken through beyond the Grotto-heaven realm!”

“Hmm?”

Lin Zhan’s heart skipped a beat.

Immortal Queen Ling Long recounted the scene she saw on the Wither Star. “There were still some remnant aura of a huge battle on the Wither Star. It’s very likely that the Sect Master of the Academy has the cultivation of a quasi-Emperor.”

A quasi-Emperor!

Lin Zhan knew very well that although quasi-Emperors were worlds apart from Emperors, quasi-Emperors meant that they were already half a step into the Emperor realm!

Throughout history, countless Immortal King experts had stopped here and could not reach the Emperor realm for the rest of their lives.

From this, it could be seen how difficult it was to reach the Emperor realm.

Not to mention that Lin Zhan’s injuries had yet to recover, even if he did, he might not be able to defend against the power of a quasi-Emperor!

“The Sect Master of the Academy has hidden himself too well.”

Lin Zhan said in a deep voice.

Immortal Queen Ling Long said, “If I’m not wrong, the Three Pure Ones Jade Manual is already in his hands. Given enough time, he even has a chance of becoming a true Emperor!”

“Furthermore, there’s a high chance that the Sect Master of the Academy has schemed an incredible game of chess this time round. Not only did he want the Three Pure Ones Jade Manual, he wanted Zimo’s Creation Green Lotus and even my Six Ren Divine Calculation.”

Immortal Queen Ling Long recounted her speculation.

Lin Zhan felt a lingering fear when he heard that.

If not for the appearance of the Emperor’s Tomb on the Wither Star and Su Zimo’s warning before his death, Immortal Queen Ling Long might have been killed by the Sect Master of the Academy!

“Zimo, he…”

Lin Zhan had a grim expression as he asked in a low voice, “Is there really no chance of him surviving after entering the Emperor’s Tomb?”

Immortal Queen Ling Long was silent.

A moment later, Immortal Queen Ling Long said, “Something must have changed in the Emperor’s Tomb. Who knows, perhaps Zimo might be blessed by the heavens…”

Even Immortal Queen Ling Long did not have the confidence to say these words herself.

Even if something changed in the Emperor’s Tomb, the curse inside was still there.

As long as the curse of the Emperor’s Tomb was present, Su Zimo had no chance of survival!

…

In the dark and cold void currents, a gigantic tomb floated quietly and drifted along to an unknown place.

The moment Su Zimo charged into the Emperor’s Tomb, he could clearly sense a strange power enveloping him.

That power was pervasive and had even seeped into his body, bloodline and sea of consciousness!

It was the curse of the Emperor’s Tomb!

The moment Su Zimo entered the Emperor’s Tomb, the power of the curse had already begun to release its might and corrode his flesh and Essence Spirit!

Su Zimo’s Green Lotus Essence Spirit was already on the verge of collapse.
His Essence Spirit was wrapped in countless dark green threads of the Master Betrayal Curse. Now that it was tainted by the curse of the Emperor’s Tomb, it was even more incurable.

“Unfortunately, a curse isn’t like a poison where different poisons can counteract…”

Su Zimo laughed self-deprecatingly.

His consciousness was already gradually sinking and his vision turned black. He only staggered forward instinctively.

If not for the unimaginable lifeforce of the Grade 12 Creation Green Lotus that kept him alive as much as possible, he would not have been able to survive until now!

“I’m too tired.”

Su Zimo felt a wave of fatigue and his eyelids felt heavy. He only wanted to fall down and have a good sleep.

There seemed to be a plop in his ears.

Su Zimo fell to the ground. Through his blurry vision, he seemed to vaguely see a figure standing not far away.

“I must be hallucinating.”

Su Zimo was already a little delirious and his consciousness was starting to break down.

“Sigh!”

He seemed to have heard a deep sigh.

“He’s tainted by two curses and can’t be saved. What a pity.”

A voice seemed to sound from the horizon, extremely far away.

“That voice sounds familiar…”

That was Su Zimo’s final thought. Thereafter, he lost consciousness.

…

Hell World, Frost Springs Hell.

In the depths of the Frost Springs Palace, the Martial Dao Prime Body cultivated in seclusion in a secret chamber beside the Hell Frost Springs, silently sorting out the many sutras and secret manuals he had learned and seen over the years.

In reality, before the Nine Firmament Meet, the Martial Dao Prime Body already had a hint of inspiration for the next Dharmic formulation of the Martial Dao.

At the Nine Firmament Meet, the inspiration deepened when he saw the green halo that spread out when the Builder Tree woke up.

The fierce battle outside the Frost Springs Palace that lasted for a day and night allowed his thoughts to finally take shape.

Later on, through Consort Yu, the Martial Dao Prime Body translated the Yin Yang Talisman Sutra and browsed through the general section and Frost Springs Section of the Nine Springs Hell Sutra, reaping immense benefits.

He had accumulated for many years for the next realm of the Martial Dao. Now, everything was in place.

After the Perfected One realm, the three Dharmic Daos of immortals, Buddhas and fiends would forcefully shatter the Dao Fruit.

They would use that power to condense a Grotto-heaven.

However, for the Dharmic formulation of the Martial Dao, the foundation had always been to cultivate oneself.

At the True Martial realm, the Prime Body cultivated the True Martial Dao Body.

Countless runic profundities that contained the Martial Dao techniques were smelted on the bones and organs of the body. Through Marrow Cleansing, a complete transformation was achieved to create a powerful and invincible body—the True Martial Dao Body.

As the Martial Dao continued to advance, the runes and Dharmic Daos deepened and their strength increased.

Finally, at a certain limit, they would break through and spread out from the True Martial Dao Body.

With the True Martial Dao Body as the center, a domain intertwined with Dharmic Daos would be formed in the surroundings!

That would be the next realm of the Martial Dao—the Martial Domain realm!

The power of this domain was definitely not a part of Grotto-heaven power.

However, the Martial Domain realm corresponded to the Grotto-heaven realm of the immortal, Buddhist and fiend Dharmic formulations!

In the secret chamber.

Suddenly, the Martial Dao Prime Body opened his eyes and an extremely terrifying aura burst forth from his body, as though he had broken through a bottleneck. His aura rose abruptly and reached another level!

Immediately after, a few balls of flames emitted from the True Martial Dao Body and formed a blazing domain around the Martial Dao Prime Body, like purgatory!

This scene was similar to when the Martial Dao Prime Body fought against the army of Frost Springs Hell alone outside the Frost Springs Palace.

Any living being who stepped into this domain would be suppressed by the Martial Dao Prime Body and burned to ashes!

This fiery purgatory was similar to the green halo of the Builder Tree.

In this domain, the Martial Dao Prime Body was the only god!

The entire secret chamber was enveloped by the Martial Dao Purgatory and could not defend against that power at all. In the blink of an eye, it melted and turned into balls of hot molten iron.

The Martial Dao Prime Body was exposed around the Hell Frost Springs once more.

Even with the bone-chilling coldness of the Hell Frost Springs, it could not suppress the power of the Martial Dao Purgatory!
