Above the first-class is the ultra-class, also known as immortal, because after reaching this realm, life can be beyond ten thousand years.
To an ordinary cultivator, ten thousand years of time is as indistinguishable from immortality.
For the nine provinces of the mainland today, it is extremely difficult and hard to break through the first level and enter immortality. Even if it were a rare talent like Zhang Tianlin who spent a thousand years, they still failed to achieve their wish.
The reason is that since ten thousand years ago, to ensure the integrity of the Nine Provinces, the seven immortals jointly set a restriction, isolating the Nine Provinces completely from the land of various races.
Although this was a de facto protection of the safety of the Nine Provinces and allowed the continent to enjoy a period of peace for ten thousand years, at the same time, it also resulted in the absence of any immortal warriors among the human race.
The epoch-making war among ten thousand races ten thousand years ago and the fierce battles fought by the seven immortal kings against the powerful beings of various races until their death and disappearance... These things were vividly described by Chen Mo.
These events were long lost in the Nine Provinces, but now with Chen Mo's words, everyone in the deliberation hall is shocked.
For a long time, none of them could recover from the shock.
At the same level as the main seat, Gu Chengsheng, the head of the YinYin Academy, lowered his head slightly and thought for a moment before curiosity showed up in his voice: "Is there any connection between this alternate space and the seven immortal kings who occupy the seats of power...".
Gu's words brought everyone back to reality. They had come for the alternative space.
Although they had come to help Chen Mo, at the same time, since the Tian Shi mansion released news about the alternate space, they had also become curious about it.
"Correct"
Chen Mo nodded slightly, confirming everyone's speculation in their hearts.
"Ten thousand years ago, before the seven immortal kings died and their paths were sealed, they locked away the Nine Provinces. At the same time, they worried that there would be no successors among the human race's strong warriors, so they jointly opened up an alternate space and placed all their own treasured items within it."
Only those who can reach the level of immortality are supergrade existences, and their strength is far beyond what a common first-class cultivator can compare.
And those who sit on the throne of immortality are at the peak of the immortal realm, and the supreme treasure they use must be the supreme treasure in the world.
If one were to obtain such a treasure, it would not be just a simple opportunity; it would be something that could alter one's destiny against the heavens.
Everyone coveted it and some were already starting to stir restlessly.
Compared to others, Su Yumo, Liu Wuxin, and Gu Hengsheng were more rational. They were also powerful treasures, so their competitiveness was greater.
Even so, there have been those who fought fiercely over these treasures, leading to rivers of blood.
Thinking of Zhang Tianlin, who almost cost him his life, Liu Wuxin's heart shook in fear. If they were to fight over such treasures, wouldn't Chen Mo...
Compared to everyone else's excitement, worry dominated Liu Wuxin's face.
"May I ask, Ancestor, how many supreme treasures are there in this alternate space?"
At this moment, the master of the Xingxiu Pavilion, Chigia Jiajia, couldn't wait to ask.
Chen Mo answered without hesitation, "Seven people, naturally seven items."
The immortal treasures are the most supreme entities in the Nine Provinces. Even placed on the land of various races, they are something that countless strong warriors would vie for. Their importance is self-evident.
"The seven immortal treasures are respectively, the Sealing Demon Sword, the Chopping Dragon Knife, the Judge's Pen, the Confused Ancient Bell, the Three Realms Jar, the Reversing Three Lives Moon and the White Jade Capital."
"The seven immortal treasures are scattered in seven regions within the alternate space. If we want to obtain them, we must bring out all our strengths and not act recklessly. Otherwise, not only will we not get our hands on the immortal treasures, but we might also lose our lives."
The immortal treasures are all top-notch magical treasures. One can reverse one's destiny with just one of them, but Chen Mo also knows that one's appetite should not be too big, or it might result in losing more than gaining.
Although many people had come to help him this time, when compared to Zhang Tianlin and the old fox, Tian Ji the sage, he was far behind.
With the seven immortal treasures, he couldn't possibly collect them all, so Chen Mo's plan was to seek out the three most important ones.
The Three Realms Jar, Reversing Three Lives Moon, and the Sealing Demon Sword.
It's not to say that the other five are not powerful, but these three are the most practical for him now.
And Chen Mo naturally had no hesitation in sharing his thoughts with everyone.
After hearing this, everyone had different expressions, and the majority of those led by Liu Wuxin and Su Yumo agreed with Chen Mo's suggestion.
After hearing it, the master of the Danxin Pavilion, Gu Yuan, thought for a moment and nodded slightly, agreeing to Chen Mo's proposal.
As for Gu Jiajia, the master of the Xingxiu Pavilion beside Gu Yuan, her eyes twinkled slightly, and she showed a hint of reluctance on her face before glancing at Gu Yuan and then agreed as well.
However, the one who had been sitting next to Chen Mo, Gu Chengsheng, an old man with white beard and wrinkles on his right hand, gently stroked his white beard.
"Ancestor, it's not that I'm unwilling to follow your arrangement, it's just..."
"Master Gu, you may speak freely."
Chen Mo noticed Gu Chengsheng's difficulty and smiled warmly.
Gu Chengsheng nodded slightly, "The ancient one never mentioned anything about the events ten thousand years ago to me, but before he wandered, he instructed that in the near future, there would be an opening of an alternate space in Zhongzhou. Within it is an object that is a treasure for our scholars...”
Just now, when I heard Ancestor mention it, I guessed it must be the Judge's Pen. My intention is to respect the old ancestor's will and compete for the Judge's Pen.
Gu Chengsheng directly expressed his thoughts.
Chen Mo nodded slightly after hearing this, "If that's what Xu Lao wants, then let's follow it."
Several days later, on the snow-covered mountain in the north of the Central Plains.
One by one, figures of people appeared quietly, some standing in mid-air, and some stepping on the snow.
The night shrouded the endless snowland.
On this snowy mountain in the farthest north of the Central Plains, not only does it snow year-round, but it also seems as if there is no daylight, with each day covered by darkness for eleven hours.
This arduous and cold place is usually deserted, but today it is exceptionally lively.
All the strongmen in Zhongzhou who are known to be prominent have gathered here.
At the summit of the snowy mountain, Zhang Tianlin, the heavenly master of the Tian Shi Mansion, clad in white robes, stood with his hands crossed and his sword in one hand. His old eyes swept over the surroundings, and he murmured to himself in a low voice, "Have people all arrived?"
After a moment, a reply echoed in his heart, "Arrived."
Zhang Tianlin's eyes flashed, "Hidden quite deeply indeed. However, I wonder if they can still hide in the presence of the immortal treasures. There are seven treasures in total, and I know what the old man is interested in. Remember that anyone competing with you for the treasures is your enemy. Kill them without mercy."
Zhang Tianlin swept his eyes around again, and he darkly chuckled in his heart, "The old fellow really can hold his breath. He hasn't even appeared himself. Well, since you won't show up, I'll just wait here with you."
As soon as he finished speaking, a golden light shot up from the top of the snowy mountain, seemingly piercing the sky and breaking through the darkness of eternal night.
In the next moment, the golden light dyed the entire sky golden.
Below the snowy mountain and in the void above, a pair of eyes watched the sudden golden light with excitement, their eyes filled with greed.
Zhang Tianlin raised his sword and chopped towards the golden light. Suddenly, the sky changed color, and the golden sky returned to its original peaceful state, becoming night. The golden column was also divided in an instant.
Following this, the divided golden columns revealed twisted spaces, resembling an abnormal pool of clear spring water.
Zhang Tianlin waved his hand, looking at the crowd and saying loudly, "The door has opened."
