Chapter 1525 - Gate of Life and Death
With regards to Yuan Hong saying his name, Tang Huan was not surprised at all.
Elder Meng Ping from the Spring Dragon Immortal"s Hall, if he was only recruiting an ordinary disciple, naturally he wouldn"t need to report to the sect. However, if he wanted to give this new disciple a "Beginning Immortal Seal", he would have to inform the sect. As an elder of the Ascending Dragon Peak, Yuan Hong should have already heard about this news.
"In order to find you, this little fellow, Elder Meng had to put in a lot of effort, but he couldn"t find anything. In the end, you came to our Spring Dragon Immortal"s Hall by yourself."
Yuan Hong smiled as he sized Tang Huan up, and said, "All these years, we, the Spring Dragon Immortal Sect, have never made such a big commotion just to recruit a disciple. You are the only one, I wonder, is your Tools Method Attainments really as good as what Elder Meng said it is?"
At this point, curiosity could be seen in Yuan Hong"s eyes.
Tang Huan laughed dryly, but before he could say anything, Yuan Hong waved his hands and laughed: "It"s fine, it"s fine, you are now a disciple of our Spring Dragon Immortal Sect. The two little girls, you two wait here. Gu Ying, come with me to the "Gate of Life and Death" for a walk. "
"Yes sir!"
After exchanging glances with Gu Caiwei and Tang Manrou, Tang Huan followed behind Yuan Hong. He wanted to go deeper into the palace.
Pa.s.sing through the main entrance of the inner part of the palace, he walked around in a roundabout way on the corridor for a long time. Suddenly, he saw the open field of vision in front of him.
In the center of the square was a low round table.
On the round platform, there was a ten-meter long arch. With the arch as the dividing line, the high platform was split in half by black and green. The front half was black, while the back half was green. Two different colored auras roiled and churned, as if waves of energy were cras.h.i.+ng into each other on the round platform.
A narrow path pa.s.sed through the arch, pa.s.sing through the black and green Qi, and ran through the entire circular platform.
Tang Huan knew that the arch was the "Gate of Life and Death".
The Forging G.o.d Great World had a "Life and Death Stage", which allowed the sect"s cultivators to settle their disputes. However, the life and death gate here was completely different from the life and death arena. The black in front of the door represented the aura of death, and the green behind the door represented life.
All the newly joined disciples must pa.s.s through the "Gate of Life and Death".
Once on the stage, one"s cultivation would be completely suppressed, and the deathly aura would seep into one"s body without end. If it was made by an undead spirit, then under the situation where its cultivation level was suppressed, the invading undead gas would cause the originally suppressed power in its body to show its true form.
If it was a human cultivator, then there wouldn"t be any changes in their body. Their body would definitely be eroded by the deathly aura and show different degrees of aging.
The moment one pa.s.ses through the Gate of Life and Death, the death aura inside the cultivator"s body will be completely expelled and their vitality will be continuously injected into the body, healing the body that was eroded by the death aura. After stepping off the stage, the cultivators would be able to return to their original states. If they didn"t fully recover, the sect would also issue them pills for treatment.
"Gu Ying!" Yuan Hong indicated towards Tang Huan.
"Whoos.h.!.+"
Tang Huan nodded his head, with a slight movement of his body, he had already stepped onto the round stage.
In the next moment, Tang Huan felt a wave of energy rising from below the stage, spreading up his legs. In the blink of an eye, his nascent soul was already completely restrained, even if it was just a bit of Sky Origin Stage. Subsequently, the surrounding aura of death surged forth, drilling into his body through his pores like a spirit serpent. It crazily roamed around everywhere, and in the blink of an eye, it had covered his limbs, bones and internal organs.
Tang Huan took a deep breath and stepped forward.
Not only did it cover the path ahead, it had also covered more than half of Tang Huan"s body. However, the restraining force that was constantly transmitted from below his feet made Tang Huan unable to see the path forward, so he did not need to worry about going astray. He only needed to follow the direction of the energy.
However, after just taking two steps, Tang Huan"s mind couldn"t help but twitch.
Under normal circ.u.mstances, once a cultivator stepped onto this round table, he would basically be no different from an ordinary person. At most, he would just be an ordinary person with tyrannical flesh body. But Tang Huan was different from the rest, even though his Sky Origin Stage was sealed, the Dantian Furnace was not restricted in any way.
As if he had sensed the raging death aura, the "Nine Yang Divine Furnace" began to revolve at a fast speed, as if it wanted to send the death aura sucking in.
Tang Huan thought for a while, then stopped the cauldron. If Yuan Hong misunderstood him due to the death aura being cleansed by the sucking, it would not be good. However, although the cauldron had stopped circulating, the "Celestial Body of the Sun" that Tang Huan possessed instinctively released a tyrannical power.
Thus, a faint golden l.u.s.ter was revealed on the surface of Tang Huan"s body.
Beneath the skin, the muscles, organs, blood and even the organs were twitching violently, as if every cell and nerve in Tang Huan"s body were moving up and down.
The aura of death that had invaded his body was slowly squeezed out before it could cause any damage to his body. In regards to this, Tang Huan himself was also quite surprised. Ever since his "Sun Spirit Body" had transformed into "Sun Immortal Body", it was actually the first time he discovered that his flesh body had something like this.
"Huh?"
His expression could not help but twitch slightly and he subconsciously let out a soft cry. His sunken eyes shone with a brilliant light as he stared at Tang Huan, who was walking forward on the circular platform.
Tang Huan vaguely sensed Yuan Hong"s peculiar expression, and was somewhat hesitant in his heart.
According to Gu Caiwei and Tang Manrou"s descriptions, all the new disciples who stepped onto this round table would age as they walked along this path. Even though it was just a short ten meters, it was sufficient to turn a thirty-year-old young man into a white-haired elder.
Although Tang Huan could not see his appearance, he knew that there was no change to his appearance.
Seeing the state he was in, it would be hard for Yuan Hong to even think about it. However, Tang Huan had no other choice now. The movement of his flesh body was completely the instinct of a "Sun Immortal Body". In a situation where he could not mobilize his Sky Origin Stage, he was completely unable to change this instinct of his flesh body.
Now that things had come to this, it was impossible to retreat.
One Step
Look at this, there is a road ahead of us! Tang Huan gritted his teeth and calmed his mind. Not long later, Tang Huan had completed the route which was surrounded by the death aura, and stepped into the arch. At this moment, the power that had trapped the nascent soul retreated like water. It disappeared without a trace. The last bit of dead qi that was left inside his body was also swept away by that power.
Tang Huan"s footsteps did not stop, and he immediately pa.s.sed through the arch.
A gentle power came out from below the stage, pulling Tang Huan forward. Almost at the same time, a dense and majestic life force came roaring in from the surroundings, enveloping Tang Huan"s entire person. This vigorous life force was like a vast ocean that slowly seeped into his body bit by bit.
