Martial Arts Crossover: Me, the Immortal Venerable, Opens a Pawnshop in the Martial Arts World

Bai Zhantang cried out in surprise, and the chair he was shaking suddenly overturned and fell to the ground with a thud.

He collapsed to the ground, oblivious to the pain, only muttering in shock:

"OMG……"

"Four thousand years! Senior Xiao Sanxiao has actually lived for over four thousand years?"

"It existed since the time of the Yellow Emperor. Seeing him is like seeing the great-great ...

Lu Xiucai gave a light snort and said indifferently:

"By age, he's more than old enough to be your great-great ...

"However... Senior Xiao Sanxiao is a peerless figure ranked fourth on the Nine Provinces Heavenly Ranking. His strength far surpasses the mid-stage of the Celestial Realm."

"Throughout the world, countless people would want to acknowledge him as their ancestor; who gave you the right to ask?"

Upon hearing this, Bai Zhantang immediately curled his lip in disdain:

"Hmph, as if Senior Xiao Sanxiao would actually think highly of you!"

The people from the martial arts world around them all nodded in agreement.

With Xiao Sanxiao's unparalleled cultivation, if he truly wished to be the ancestor of all people, I'm afraid all the heroes in the world would be scrambling to kowtow and acknowledge him as their relative!

The Great Han Dynasty.

Inside the imperial study, Liu Bang, Zhang Liang, and Han Xin had long lost their usual composure.

I suddenly stood up, and only one thought surged through my mind—

Not to be trifled with! Unfathomable! That is a true deity descended to earth!

If we were to become enemies with such beings, even if the Han Dynasty were as solid as iron, it would be reduced to ashes in the blink of an eye!

Deep within an ancient tomb from the Song Dynasty.

The usually aloof and taciturn Little Dragon Girl now parted her cherry lips slightly, lost in thought, unable to speak for a long time.

Yang Guo gently embraced the beauty in his arms and sighed softly:

"I originally thought that the senior Dugu Qiubai was still alive and had already reached such a terrifying level, which has overturned my understanding."

"But unexpectedly, this Senior Xiao Sanxiao is truly beyond the mundane, leaving everyone utterly bewildered..."

Little Dragon Girl nodded slightly, a hint of bewilderment in her clear, cool voice:

"More than four thousand years... that's enough time for Yang Guo to experience countless 'sixteen-year periods'..."

The Ming Dynasty, the Forbidden City.

"Gulp..."

In an instant, whether it was Emperor Zhu Houzhao, or grandmasters like Guo Juxia and Zhu Wushi, or even every rebel and imperial guard soldier present—

As if by prior agreement, they all swallowed hard, their eyes fixed on the aged yet kind figure, as if they were in a dream!

terror!

Even if Zhu Houzhao knew that Xiao Sanxiao had been living in seclusion for a thousand years and that he would live to be at least a thousand years old.

Even though everyone knows that he is the fourth on the Nine Provinces Heavenly Ranking and his combat power surpasses that of Xiaoyaozi, his background must be extraordinary.

But who could have imagined that he would live for over four thousand years?!

More than four thousand years!

Not four years, not forty years, but a long period of four thousand years!

For an ordinary person, forty years is half a lifetime; for a master, it is a long time.

How ridiculous! ...They actually survived four thousand years!

This……

The term "old monster" is not enough to describe him; he is the ultimate being among old monsters!

At that moment, Zhu Houzhao truly realized how amazing his opportunity was!

To be able to receive help from such a godlike being!

At the same time, a burning light ignited in his eyes, and he secretly vowed: No matter what, I will do my best to make friends with Xiao Sanxiao!

Such a powerful figure stands at the pinnacle of the Nine Provinces. Even if someone surpasses him in the future, it will be impossible for them to be too far behind!

With Xiao Sanxiao's strong support, the Ming Dynasty will surely rise to great heights and become awe-inspiring for all time!

……

The scene shifts, and an epic battle begins.

Countless warriors were swept into the Shura battlefield known as the "Battle for the Deer," where they ultimately closed their eyes forever.

After three days of bloody battle, the Yellow Emperor personally led his army and finally beheaded Chi You, the leader of the Chi You tribe, defeated the main force of the enemy army, and laid the foundation for unification!

Xiao Sanxiao, as a general under Xuanyuan, fought bravely but ultimately could not escape his fate and fell amidst mountains of corpses and seas of blood.

Blood stained his battle robe, his body was covered in hideous wounds, and excessive blood loss gradually blurred his vision.

He lay prostrate on the pile of corpses, his arms hanging limply at his sides, looking like a blood puppet.

Upon witnessing this, onlookers from all over Kyushu began to discuss it again.

"This... this severe injury... Senior Xiao Sanxiao, are you truly going to perish here?"

"Fallen? Absolutely impossible! Since he ranked fourth on the Nine Provinces Heavenly Ranking, he must be alive. How could he have died in this battle!"

"Indeed! No one has ever been listed on the Nine Provinces Heavenly Ranking. Moreover, Xiao Sanxiao is clearly far from reaching fourth place!"

"Do you think... it's possible that an ancient immortal intervened and passed on the secret to immortality, allowing him to survive until now?"

"An immortal... that's not impossible. Such severe injuries would leave even a grandmaster of this era helpless..."

"So... the immortals are about to appear?"

"It's truly captivating..."

Deep within the Forbidden City of the Ming Dynasty.

Xiao Sanxiao stared at the scene appearing on the Nine Provinces Heavenly Ranking, a slight smile curving his lips, and a trace of long-lost reminiscence surfacing deep in his eyes.

Even though he has lived for over four thousand years, he is still full of gratitude for that past and for that existence.

over nine days.

Amidst the mountain of corpses and sea of ​​blood, a colossal creature suddenly appeared on the river surface beside Xiao Sanxiao—its head like a long, winding snake, its body like a steady giant tortoise, with a diameter exceeding thirty meters.

The beast slowly swam closer, carried the critically injured and dying Xiao Sanxiao on its back, and sailed against the surging river, breaking through the waves.

After an unknown journey, the man and the beast finally followed the Yangtze River into the sea, arriving at an isolated island.

Xuanwu looked down at Xiao Sanxiao, whose breath was weak and whose life hung by a thread, and a hint of human hesitation and struggle appeared in his cloudy eyes.

A moment later, it suddenly raised its head, and its whole body erupted with a world-destroying power, causing rivers to surge backward and mountains to collapse!

Amidst boundless power, a drop of crimson, radiant blood essence condensed from his body, piercing through the void and disappearing directly into Xiao Sanxiao's brow...

In an instant, his wounds healed at an astonishing speed, and he was rejuvenated.

at the same time.

On the screen, golden text slowly emerged:

In the Battle of Zhuolu, the Yellow Emperor and Chiyou clashed fiercely in the wilderness, staining the land with blood. Xiao Sanxiao, a general under the Yellow Emperor, fought valiantly, but was exhausted and on the verge of death.

[Fortunately, he was saved by the divine beast Xuanwu. On his deathbed, Xuanwu offered a drop of its primordial blood, which merged into his body, thus granting him an immortal body and allowing him to reach the realm of celestial beings!]

The world was shocked to witness this.

"No...it wasn't personally taught by an immortal?"

"Senior Xiao Sanxiao actually had such a fortuitous encounter? Was he saved by a legendary divine beast?"

"Xuanwu? Isn't that something that only exists in ancient books and myths? It actually lives in this world?"

"No wonder he has lived for over four thousand years! The reason lies here—the essence of a divine beast grants him an immortal body!"

"The phoenix once used its blood to grant people rebirth, and now the Black Tortoise is also bestowing eternal life upon them with its blood... The power of these divine beasts truly transcends heaven and earth!"

"Since the Black Tortoise and the Phoenix truly exist, there must be other divine beasts hidden in the world. If we could find them and drink their essence, wouldn't we also be able to transcend life and death and gain supreme power?"

"Trying to achieve enlightenment through the essence of divine beasts? How laughable! What kind of beings are divine beasts? With your meager cultivation, you wouldn't even be enough to fill their teeth."

"I always thought mythical beasts were just legends, but they've been appearing one after another... Is this still the world I know?"

"Yes... ever since the Nine Provinces Heavenly Ranking descended, all the legends have become reality. Those powerful figures and divine beasts that only existed in stories have actually appeared one by one..."

Yong'an is outside the gate.

Lu Xiucai suddenly clenched his fist and slammed it into his left palm, shouting excitedly:

"Understood!"

"I finally understand! This is the reason why these masters are so extraordinary!"

Xu Nian was startled and was about to scold him when he heard what the other person said. He immediately became interested and couldn't wait to ask more questions:

"You've figured it out? Tell me quickly, why are the experts on the Nine Provinces Heavenly Ranking all so ridiculously strong?"

Lu Xiucai straightened his clothes, his face full of smugness, and said loudly:

"It's all because of good luck!"

"Look at Senior Xiao Sanxiao, he was originally just an ordinary general, but he was favored by the heavens and the divine beast Xuanwu voluntarily donated his blood."

"Not only did it grant immortality, but it also allowed one to ascend to the heavens and enter the realm of celestial beings."

"If such an opportunity were to fall into my lap, I could also climb up to the Nine Provinces Heavenly Ranking... at least into the top seven!"

Guo Furong's lips twitched upon hearing this, and she mocked him mercilessly:

"You became a celestial being after drinking a sip of divine beast blood? You're only seventh in rank for such a privilege? And you still have the nerve to brag about it?"

"That's all you can think of," Xu Nian rolled his eyes and sneered.

Lü Xiucai, however, didn't take it to heart. Instead, he straightened his chest and looked completely at ease.

"Don't forget, Xu Fu, who ranked sixth, also broke through to the Celestial Realm by relying on the essence of a divine beast. It's already quite remarkable that I can follow closely behind him."

"snort……"

As the blue phoenix circled around, Old Huang and the other onlookers all snorted coldly, their faces revealing undisguised mockery and contempt, their expressions utterly disdainful.

"The mythical beast Xuanwu? There are other mythical beasts in this world?"

On a giant island off the eastern coast of the Qin Dynasty, a magnificent palace stands.

Xu Fu stared at the enormous figure of Xuanwu in the distance, remaining silent for a long time.

He once thought that among the mythical beasts, he was the only one in the entire Nine Provinces who had ever seen one.

He was the only one who successfully embarked on this path of tempering his body and prolonging his life with the essence and blood of divine beasts.

But now—

Xiao Sanxiao, who has lived for over four thousand years, has achieved immortality by relying on the essence and blood of Xuanwu!

Both drank the blood of divine beasts, but had lived through countless years. In terms of foundation and cultivation, Xiao Sanxiao's realm was probably far superior to his.

Catching up is already difficult; let alone surpassing it?

however……

That was simply because Xu Fu only possessed the power of one divine beast!

if……

"Since the phoenix and the black tortoise have already appeared in the world, then the azure dragon and the white tiger, these two divine beasts, may very well exist in the world!"

"If we can find the other divine beasts, kill them, refine them, and absorb their essence and blood... perhaps there is still a chance to turn the tide."

His gaze suddenly sharpened, his killing intent flashing like a knife, disappearing in an instant.

Xu Fu suddenly turned around and shouted sternly at the guards outside the hall:

"Someone come here!"

"Immediately assemble your forces, set sail, and search for the divine beast! A great reward will be bestowed upon any discovery! Anyone who disobeys will be executed!"

……

In the Imperial Garden of the Tang Dynasty.

Li Shimin frowned, his tone grave:

"I never imagined that the phoenix was not the only mythical beast existing only in legends..."

"Now that the Black Tortoise has appeared, if even more divine beasts are lurking in the world, doesn't that mean that if one finds a divine beast by chance and has some strength, one can instantly become an immortal and step into the realm of celestial beings?"

"If that is indeed the case, I am truly worried. I do not know when a new celestial being might emerge and shake the nation."
