The Eastern Emperor of all Heavens did not wish to become a Buddha.

Chapter 19 The Wilderness Lord's Strange Movement
"bright!"

"The fragrance of the soil!"

"Is this what they call the ancient Big Dipper?"

As the bronze coffin was opened, a fresh and fragrant breeze wafted in, and many people showed happy expressions.

Zhong Xu looked out at the world and was the first to step out of the bronze coffin. The others quickly followed.

Stepping out of the ancient coffin, the group found themselves standing on a low mountain peak, surrounded by a vast and magnificent mountain range. The peaks rose and fell, covered with lush trees, green grass, and fragrant wildflowers, full of life and vitality.

"Boom!"

A loud roar startled everyone awake, causing them to look behind them.

Nine enormous dragon corpses, along with ancient bronze coffins, were hanging on the cliff, slowly sliding down into the valley below.

Upon closer inspection, everyone discovered that the surrounding terrain consisted of nine large mountains encircling each other, forming a peculiar valley-like location.

The nine peaks are not particularly high, and the valleys surrounding them should theoretically be open fields.

However, as everyone looked down into the valley, they only saw a dark abyss with no end in sight, as if it led straight to the deepest hell.

There seemed to be some kind of special magic in the abyss, which made everyone shiver.

Rumble!
The nine-headed dragon corpse, along with the bronze coffin, slid down completely and plunged into the abyss below.

To everyone's surprise, after a long time, no sound of heavy objects falling to the bottom of the valley came from the abyss, as if it were truly a bottomless pit.

This made everyone increasingly uneasy.

Zhong Xu glanced at the abyss below, then quickly looked away, avoiding further attention for fear of attracting the notice of the two powerful figures within.

Having read the original work, he naturally knew that two of the strongest individuals in this universe were hidden beneath this abyss.

One of them was the original owner of this desolate and forbidden land, a Great Accomplished Holy Body, and the first Desolate Lord.

The other one is one of the most talented women in this universe, and could even be said to be one of the most powerful beings in this universe, the Ruthless Great Emperor.

Ye Fan was a flower similar to the ruthless emperor's brother, and had always been under his watchful eye.

Both of them now have their own flaws. The Ruthless Great Emperor is caught in the transformation of the mortal immortal path, and his mind is often not clear. The First Desolate Lord is cursed by the Holy Body, and his later years are ominous. He also often goes crazy. With the help of the Ruthless Great Emperor, he can barely maintain his sanity.

It was precisely because of their connection with Ye Fan that when the Nine Dragons Pulling the Coffin arrived at this place, they temporarily sealed off the power of the entire Desolate Ancient Forbidden Zone, making the forbidden area like a sacred place at this moment.

Under normal circumstances, the moment people step out of the bronze coffin, they will be affected by the power of the forbidden zone and die of old age.

The claim that the Eastern Wilderness has seven forbidden zones for life is no exaggeration!

Zhong Xu's small frame is no match for these two big shots. If he attracts their attention, he'll probably have to awaken the Martian Sacred Body in his mind's ocean to save his life.

That would be a terrible waste of this trump card.

After glancing at everyone, Zhong Xu turned his gaze to Ye Fan, a smile appearing in his eyes: "You all rest here for a while. I'll go and explore the surrounding area. Ye Fan, you come with me."

Now that he had come to the desolate forbidden land, Zhong Xu naturally wouldn't let go of the immortal medicine here, the Nine Wonders Immortal Medicine.

He has only recently entered the path of cultivation. If he can use the Elixir of Immortality to refine his foundation, it will certainly be of great benefit to his future growth.

As for why Ye Fan was brought along, it was naturally to serve as a shield.

The Nine-Headed Elixir of Immortality in the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land was planted by the Ruthless Great Emperor. Although she is currently caught up in the transformation of the Immortal Path in the Mortal World and is in a daze, she wouldn't notice this place. However, the first Desolate Lord himself said in the original work that when Ye Fan and the others arrived at the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land riding the Nine Dragons Pulling the Coffin, he was in a conscious state and was watching this place the whole time.

Without Ye Fan, the first generation of the Holy Body, as a guarantee, Zhong Xu would not dare to go and pick the Nine Wonders Immortal Elixir alone!
"Yes, Master."

Ye Fan nodded quickly and went to Zhong Xu's side.

Pang Bo, who was standing nearby, had an idea and quickly stepped forward: "Master, I'll go with you too."

He still hadn't given up and wanted to become a disciple of this master to obtain the methods of cultivating immortality.

Zhong Xu glanced at Pang Bo and nodded.

Seeing this, the others wanted to follow, but Zhong Xu stopped them.

The Nine Wonders Immortal Elixir can be considered as something that Ruthless prepared for Ye Fan, who is suspected to be her brother. It's fine if Zhong Xu goes to get one, but if all these people go, how many will Ye Fan be able to take?
If we anger the owner of this place, we'll be in trouble.

From the perspective of the entire universe, the Great Emperor and the Great Accomplished Holy Body are majestic, awe-inspiring, and deities who protect all living beings and are worshipped by all.

However, from the perspective of an individual living being, they should never be regarded as truly benevolent beings.

Every supreme being who reaches this realm has experienced countless killings and has blood on their hands; they are no longer concerned with kindness.

Speaking of the Ruthless Great Emperor alone, he was a ruthless character who annihilated and devoured all kings. When it comes to ruthlessness, once the Devouring Heaven Demon Art was unleashed, even the supreme beings of the forbidden zones would have to admit defeat.

With Ye Fan and Pang Bo by their side, the three headed towards the mountaintop, searching for the divine spring and sacred fruit from their memories.

Beneath the abyss of the ancient forbidden land.

In the endless darkness, a pair of blood-red eyes suddenly appeared, exuding an unparalleled domineering aura.

With a clanging sound of heavy iron chains, a majestic figure, at least ten feet tall, emerged from the abyss.

His entire body was covered in golden fur, surrounded by thick mist, and his vast blood energy was like an endless galaxy, shaking heaven and earth.

At this moment, the figure's eyes flickered, looking with a hint of doubt at the mountain peak where the Nine Dragons Coffin had fallen, and at the three figures heading towards the summit.

His blood-red eyes darted around, faintly revealing a vision of the cosmos and the destruction of stars, reflecting the image of the young monk in his robes.

"What a strange cultivation system! And even though he's not a Saint Body, why does he possess the aura of the Saint Body lineage? In fact, it seems even purer than the kid next to him!"

A slightly confused, low voice rang out, and with a series of heavy clanking of chains, the man covered in golden hair stepped directly out of the abyss.

On top of the mountain.

Perhaps it was good luck for the three of them, or perhaps the Nine Dragons Pulling the Coffin had landed not far from the Sacred Fruit, but Zhong Xu only led Ye Fan and Pang Bo for a short while before they saw a spring surrounded by old vines.

The spring pool is no more than a meter square, clear and bright, gurgling and flowing, like a divine spring of sweet dew.

Around the spring, there are a dozen or so small trees, each about half a meter tall, with broad leaves and a bright red fruit that looks like a cherry hanging from the top.

Seeing the saplings and the fruit at their tops, a hint of joy appeared in Zhong Xu's eyes.

These dozen or so small trees in front of me are one of the immortal medicines of this universe, part of the Nine Wonders Immortal Tree.

The original Nine Wonders Immortal Tree was a true elixir of immortality, capable of refreshing one's own state and allowing the Great Emperor to live a second life.

However, the Nine Wonders Immortal Medicine has now been divided into nine by the Ruthless Great Emperor, and planted on nine mountain peaks in the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land. The small trees in front of Zhong Xu and the sacred fruits on them are part of the Nine Wonders Immortal Medicine.
