2630 Loss of Connection
Thousands of thoughts flashed through his mind and the skinny palm of the old monk had already slapped the chest of the Martial Dao Prime Body.
The Martial Dao Prime Body could not move at all and was prepared to die here.
Given the strength of the old monk, even if he had a Grotto-heaven and a perfected True Martial Dao Body, he would not be able to withstand a palm strike as such!
However, the Martial Dao Prime Body did not feel any pain when the old monk’s palm descended.
To be precise, the old monk merely nudged him gently.
At that moment, the Martial Dao Prime Body was standing at the edge of the ancient well. After being pushed by the old monk, he lost control of his body and balance, falling head first into the dark and sinister ancient well!
The figure of the Martial Dao Prime Body was devoured by the darkness and he was falling into an endless abyss.
Box
The surrounding ancient city and ancient well seemed to have vanished instantly!
The old monk was the only one still around.
Arriving at the edge of the dark abyss, the old monk looked down at the falling Martial Dao Prime Body.
He smirked slightly, revealing a mysterious smile on his wrinkled old face.
A strange look flashed through the depths of the old monk’s hazy eyes.
The next moment, the Martial Dao Prime Body was completely devoured by the darkness and could not see anything.
At the same time, he lost connection with the Green Lotus True Body completely!
…
Green Firmament Immortal Domain, Battle Kingdom.
Human Monarch’s chamber.
Enshrouded by the immortal fog, Su Zimo shuddered and clenched his fists instinctively. Suddenly, he stood up with a furious expression.
When the Martial Dao Prime Body entered Greater Avici, the Green Lotus True Body’s attention had always been on the Martial Dao Prime Body.
After the Martial Dao Prime Body refined the h.e.l.l Suppression Tripod, it was equivalent to him controlling Avici.
Even though the Martial Dao Prime Body was in Avici and had even entered Greater Avici, the two true bodies could still sense one another.
Therefore, the Green Lotus True Body knew everything that the Martial Dao Prime Body experienced in Greater Avici as though he was experiencing it personally.
That was the reason why the Green Lotus True Body lost his composure when the Martial Dao Prime Body was pushed into the dark abyss by the old monk.
He had completely lost the connection to the Martial Dao Prime Body!
Su Zimo’s expression was terrible.
The Martial Dao Prime Body had just condensed a Grotto-heaven and the perfected True Martial Dao Body. In fact, he even had a direction for the Dharmic formulation for the next realm of the Martial Dao.
To think that he would encounter such an undeserved calamity in Greater Avici and his fate was unknown.
Su Zimo had not expected to encounter the old monk in the depths of Greater Avici!
Less than that, he had not expected the old monk to push him into the dark abyss without a second word!
Right then, Su Zimo felt something strange and looked over instinctively.
Not far away, Human Monarch Lin Zhan and Immortal Queen Ling Long were looking at him with worried expressions.
His mind was focused on the Martial Dao Prime Body earlier on. It was only now that Su Zimo snapped out of his stupor and recalled that he was in the chamber of the Human Monarch.
“I’m Su Zimo of Tianhuang Mainland. Greetings, Senior Human Monarch.”
Suppressing his emotions, Su Zimo took a deep breath and bowed.
Lin Zhan nodded slightly.
Immortal Queen Ling Long had a worried expression, as though she could tell that something serious had happened to Su Zimo. She asked gently, “Are you alright?”
“It’s fine.”
Su Zimo forced a smile.
Even if he revealed this matter, the Human Monarch and Immortal Queen Ling Long could not do anything about it.
Even Emperors could not come out of Greater Avici, let alone the Human Monarch who was severely injured and minor Grotto-heaven Immortal Queen Ling Long.
“How long have I been here?”
Su Zimo noticed that Human Monarch Lin Zhan had already woken up from his recuperation and realized that quite a bit of time must have pa.s.sed.
“It’s been seven days.”
Immortal Queen Ling Long said, “We saw that you seemed to be immersed in a certain state and was experiencing something. As such, we did not disturb you.”
Su Zimo sighed internally.
To think that although the trip of the Martial Dao Prime Body to Greater Avici seemed short, seven days had pa.s.sed.
Indeed, the pa.s.sing of time could not be experienced in Greater Avici.
“Seniors, have you heard of the tomb keeper?”
Su Zimo pondered for a moment and asked.
The Human Monarch and Immortal Queen Ling Long recalled carefully with lost expressions. They exchanged glances and shook their heads slowly.
Su Zimo had expected this.
Even Yun Zhu who read the ancient books and was well-versed in history did not know the tomb keeper; it was understandable for the Human Monarch and Immortal Queen Ling Long to not know as well.
“Senior Human Monarch, how are your injuries?”
Su Zimo asked again.
No matter what, the Human Monarch’s current injuries were caused because he disregarded everything and forcefully descended to Tianhuang Mainland in the past back when the human race of Tianhuang Mainland met with a calamity.
Lin Zhan waved it off and smiled in a carefree manner. “After obtaining your Nine Revolutions Soul Return Elixir and Saraca Fruit, I’ve recovered a little and my combat strength has also recovered to the Grotto-heaven realm. My life is not in danger.”
Although the Human Monarch did not say it explicitly, Su Zimo could tell.
His combat strength was probably only at the minor Grotto-heaven realm at the very most and was far from his peak!
The Human Monarch smiled. “Don’t worry about me. I’m long used to being haunted by these injuries in the upper world all these years.”
“On the other hand, you’re truly shocked me and Ling Long ever since your ascension.”
“In less than 10,000 years, your Green Lotus True Body has already cultivated to the peak of a Grade 9 Heaven Immortal. As long as there’s a suitable opportunity, you can condense a Dao Fruit at any moment and advance to the Perfected One realm.”
“Also, that true body of yours with the t.i.tle of Desolate Martial is even more powerful. You wreaked havoc at the Immortal Peach Banquet of the Jade Firmament Immortal Domain and the battle in the Nine Firmament Immortal Domain shocked the world to its core!”
“It’s unfortunate that I did not get to witness it personally. What a pity.”
Human Monarch Lin Zhan was all smiles as he praised Su Zimo with a gratified expression.
All these years, he had been plagued by injuries as well internal and external troubles in the Battle Kingdom. He was worried all day and barely smiled.
Right now, seeing Su Zimo was the happiest thing that had happened to him in recent years.
On the one hand, it was rare to see an old friend from Tianhuang Mainland and he felt extremely close.
On the other hand, he was relieved that a junior from Tianhuang Mainland managed to rise rapidly and become famous in the Heavenly World.
Back then, the reason why he endured the risk of being severely injured and forcefully descended was because he wanted to make use of Su Zimo’s body to fight against the Monarchs of the various races.
That process was equivalent to him leaving his Dharmic Dao to Su Zimo.
Before leaving, he even pa.s.sed down the position of the Human Monarch to this young man back then.
Even Human Monarch Lin Zhan did not expect that the young man back then would be able to make such a name for himself in the Heavenly World after ascending to the upper world!
“Bring me wine!”
Emotional and excited, the Human Monarch waved his hand.
Immortal Queen Ling Long pursed her lips and smiled. She said with bravado, “I’ve prepared it a long time ago. Count me in, we’ll drink to our hearts’ content today!”
“Unfortunately, we’re missing Brother Feng.”
The Human Monarch shook his head gently with a regretful tone.
Immortal Queen Ling Long took out three jars of strong wine and left one for herself before sharing the other two with the Human Monarch and Su Zimo.
