King of Assassins

Gao Xuan was also submerged by the thirty-six worlds transformed from the thirty-six pages of the Earth Book.

Each page of the Earth Book is an independent world, with its own time-space imprint and time-space law.

Gao Xuan was divided into thirty-six parts by the Earth Book, and he had to simultaneously receive thirty-six different times, thirty-six different spaces, and the endless time-space imprints brought by thirty-six independent worlds.

To leave an imprint in the long river of time and space, it must possess unique value and power.

The thirty-six pages of the Earth Book record all the mysteries of the Primordial Celestial Realm, especially the innate secrets at the beginning of the heavens and earth.

Gao Xuan found it hard to resist the temptation of these knowledge, knowing that absorbing such knowledge was very dangerous, as his divine soul could easily be divided into thirty-six parts by the Earth Book.

The Innate Primordial Chaos Dao Body emphasizes the Unity of Inner and Outer without flaw. Such division would cause fatal harm to the Innate Primordial Chaos Dao Body.

A single mishap, and he would completely dissipate into nothingness.

However, the knowledge recorded in the Earth Book was too precious.

Gao Xuan’s cultivation time was too short. His understanding of ancient times had mostly come from that old tortoise deep in the Netherworld. Unfortunately, the old tortoise’s level wasn’t high, and what he knew was very limited.

The Earth Book was different; it recorded all the information from non-existence to existence, including everything before the innate.

Celestial Immortal, Earth Immortal, Human Immortal, Spirit Immortal, all can be cultivated through acquired practice. But Daluo Golden Immortal is born from the innate. Regardless of how much one cultivates, it is impossible to become a Golden Immortal through acquired means.

This law is also an open secret. All cultivators above the Earth Immortal level know it.

After proving the Dao and becoming an Earth Immortal, cultivators can clearly feel an insurmountable high mountain above. Above the mountain are the sun, moon, and stars.

The high mountain is the Celestial Immortal realm. The sun, moon, and stars represent the Daluo Golden Immortal.

No matter how high and steep the mountain is, it is possible to climb to the summit. The sun, moon, and stars are above the Nine Heavens, and there’s no way to touch them.

The realm of Daluo Golden Immortal is so high and distant that all cultivators, realizing the gap, can’t help but feel despair.

Gao Xuan, however, was not disheartened; he always felt that if others could achieve it, so could he.

It’s just that he knew too little about the Golden Immortal realm, unsure which direction to strive towards.

This time, as the Earth Book fully opened, containing the secrets of the innate, how could Gao Xuan abandon it?

The Formless Nine Revolutions ran at full power, the wings of the Nine-Revolutions Divine Cicada buzzed vigorously.

Among the thirty-six pages of the Earth Book, only the first page recorded the secrets of the innate.

With the Spiritual Miao of the Nine-Revolutions Divine Cicada, Gao Xuan immediately locked onto the first page of the Earth Book. He poured all his divine soul power into the first page.

Regardless of the countless mysteries and laws on the other thirty-five pages flowing, regardless of the thirty-five pages’ laws constantly dividing his body, he remained unmoved.

In an instant, Gao Xuan didn’t know how much knowledge and mystery from the first page of the Earth Book he had absorbed.

Suddenly, a volume of the Earth Book closed abruptly, and the worlds unfolded collapsed and contracted.

Gao Xuan’s figure also disappeared with it.

The Earth Element Daoist Monarch, holding the Earth Book, appeared in Taiyi Hall, with a few traces of bewilderment on his face. Even now, he still didn’t know what change had occurred to the Earth Book?

However, he was sure that Gao Xuan had been suppressed and sealed by the Earth Book and was now hidden within it.

The Earth Element Daoist Monarch was somewhat hesitant; he had agreed to a discussion with Gao Xuan, but sealing him within the Earth Book seemed rather unethical?

But if he released Gao Xuan, who knew if he would become furious and fight to the death?

The Earth Element Daoist Monarch didn’t even know how the Earth Book had managed to capture Gao Xuan. If he tried again, he wasn’t confident he could suppress Gao Xuan.

Besides, considering the safety of the Primordial Celestial Realm, Gao Xuan shouldn’t be released.

The many cultivators inside Taiyi Hall were very excited. Gao Xuan had killed the Polar Star Monarch, the Ten Suffering Bodhisattva. Although he lost the sword duel to Yuan Qinglian, it actually was his great victory; Yuan Qinglian could only flee far away.

If the Earth Element Daoist Monarch were defeated by Gao Xuan, Gao Xuan would become the overlord of the Primordial Celestial Realm.

Gao Xuan’s demeanor was unparalleled, but his methods were cold and ruthless. No one wanted Gao Xuan to become the master of the Primordial Celestial Realm. Of course, except for those fools who only look at appearances.

Seeing the Earth Element Daoist Monarch seal Gao Xuan with the Earth Book, many cultivators cheered excitedly. Many others spontaneously applauded. There were loud accolades and congratulations, making the scene extremely lively and somewhat chaotic.

Some Earth Immortal powerhouses had already surrounded the Earth Element Daoist Monarch, flattering him with a tide of compliments. These Earth Immortals were genuinely happy, at the moment not caring about their face, surrounding the Earth Element Daoist Monarch with flattery.

"The Daoist Monarch is truly the cornerstone of the Primordial Celestial Realm!"

"Thanks to the Daoist Monarch for suppressing this fiend, otherwise, the beings of the Primordial Celestial Realm would be in peril!"

"The Daoist Monarch shows divine power, suppressing the rebel Gao Xuan, truly satisfying everyone’s hearts..."

"With the Daoist Monarch holding the line, who dares to act rashly in the Primordial Celestial Realm."

The Earth Element Daoist Monarch looked at these Earth Immortals, inexplicably feeling a surge of disgust. This group of people behaved this way because they feared he would release Gao Xuan.

Ultimately, it’s all for selfish desires.

At this moment, he suddenly understood Gao Xuan’s thinking; these mundane and vulgar individuals, their lives and deaths are fundamentally insignificant. If they didn’t look pleasant, they would naturally be wiped away at will.

Just as the Earth Element Daoist Monarch was about to explain to these Earth Immortals, suddenly, the Earth Book flew out of his hands into the air, and its pages quickly flipped open.

Following that, Gao Xuan’s long and elegant figure gracefully descended from the Earth Book.

The many cultivators in Taiyi Hall were dumbfounded seeing Gao Xuan escape; none could speak a word or dared to move.

The Earth Element Daoist Monarch was initially stunned, but ultimately felt a sense of relief. He hadn’t intended to trap Gao Xuan to death, and now that Gao Xuan had freed himself, it saved trouble.

Gao Xuan smiled slightly, taking in the expressions of everyone in Taiyi Hall.

The many Earth Immortals were visibly fearful, regretting having expressed themselves so eagerly before.

Many Earth Immortals cursed in their hearts: "The Earth Element Daoist Monarch is such a failure, allowing Gao Xuan to escape, making things difficult for us..."

Gao Xuan ignored the group of petty Earth Immortals. He came to the Earth Book, thought for a moment, turned it to the last page, and wrote a poem with his finger as the pen.

"Ten sufferings beset, a fierce star appears, untouched by calamity, gather the Qinglian. Opening the Earth Book reveals the innate, one poem crushes three thousand immortals."

These twenty-eight golden sparkling characters were transformed by countless Celestial Runes, leaving an indelible imprint on the last page of the Earth Book.

Gao Xuan left a poem permanently on the Earth Book. Anyone who read the Earth Book could see the poem left by Gao Xuan.

The many Earth Immortals stared dumbfounded at the twenty-eight golden characters, their divine souls firmly suppressed by the poem.

The poem’s meaning was simple, mentioning the Ten Sufferings, Polar Star Monarch, Yuan Qinglian, and Earth Book Daoist Monarch, finally stating that the poem suppressed three thousand immortals.

Indeed, the poem concealed a profound and endless dao impression, showcasing the peerless divine power that suppressed all the immortals of the Primordial Celestial Realm.

Just for this poem alone, the Earth Book Daoist Monarch had to concede defeat. The other Earth Immortals were suppressed to the point where they could only prostrate themselves, unable to muster any power to contest Gao Xuan.

Characters like Yue Honglian among the Celestial Immortals were even more shocked.

In Yue Honglian’s heart, Yuan Qinglian was originally the number one in the world, unparalleled. Now, however, Gao Xuan had completely replaced Yuan Qinglian’s position.

Under the witness of the most elite cultivators of the Primordial Celestial Realm, Gao Xuan dominated over all unparalleled powerhouses, becoming the undisputed overlord of the Primordial Celestial Realm.

His incomparable divine power, his high and transcendent demeanor, Gao Xuan’s performance at the conference made all cultivators remember him forever. It also made numerous young genius cultivators extremely envious and jealous.

At this moment, Yue Honglian had only one thought in mind: "This is how a cultivator should be..."
