Chosen Man
Four Ancient Taboos

"This ..."

On the shoulders of the giant white ape, the woman's pretty eyes widened, and a wisp of surprise appeared between her beautiful eyebrows.

What the hell's going on?

Under the river, Zhenyu's aura was restrained, yet he clearly noticed the scene in the outside world at the moment, and he was shocked until his scalp went numb.

It was because he suddenly saw a skinny figure suddenly standing on top of a lotus boat shrouded in cold starlight not far from him.

This figure was bathed in starlight, the figure was illusory as well as hazy. It was impossible to see his appearance clearly.

However, he revealed an incomparable demeanor that seemed to stand far away from the world, and he was like an immortal being that had come out from the restraints of the gods!

The aura on his body was so terrifying that it caused the heaven and earth to dim while the river water surged and rumbled.

"Very strong!!"

On the shoulders of the giant white ape, the woman's expression slightly changed as her hair stood upright. He could feel the aura of deadly danger that the illusory figure was emitting.

But in a short moment, chains of crystal starlight suddenly shot out from the prison ship.

Bang out!

The illusory figure shrouded in starlight was like it was hit by a whip that violently struck the skinny figure, causing its illusory true figure to suddenly disappear.

"So he was imprisoned by the forbidden force on that lotus ship…"

The woman reached her slight understanding from here, yet her heart surged. The aura of that skinny figure was extremely frightening and formidable, even when he was still imprisoned.

If the aura of a being in prison possessed this terrifying power, then what kind of existence would be the owner of that prison ship?

“Heh, it is already fifty thousand years after the ancient era of darkness, but that forbidden restriction energy is still not really gone. If the time was not right, those who forcefully tried to break out of the forbidden boundary would definitely die!”

In the distance, a cynical sneer suddenly rang out on the Thousand Year Island.

Two jade lanterns hung high in the sky above Thousand Year Island, and they looked like a pair of teachers and disciples as they looked towards the otherworldly prison ship.

"As expected, there was a terrifying creature hidden in that Thousand Year Island!"

Above the giant white ape, the woman's expression flickered.

Previously, he had observed from afar and sensed the indistinct life fluctuations of that Thousand Year Island.

This scene undoubtedly confirmed his guess!

“Fifty thousand years Ancient Era of Darkness? What does this mean?"

The woman was confused.

No one answered on the prison ship.

But one would know that the illusory figure that was in prison on that ship outside the other world was still there!

"Why didn't you say anything? In the countless years that have passed, only the four of us are still alive after the Ancient Guardians Energy' it appeared."

"When the ancient restriction energy came down, the others had escaped into the depths of the distant space, and I had no idea if they were alive or dead...."

"Either they have been corroded and obliterated by the terrible power of the Guardians."

The voice echoed once again. “In other words, only the four of us have the chance to break through the shackles of the Ancient Guardians Energy and appear to the world once again to reach the highest Great Dao. Why don't we join forces and unite forces?”

Yet still no one answered on that otherworldly prison ship.

The woman on the shoulders of the giant white ape was filled with shock.

He did not know what Darkness Restriction Energy was, nor did he know what the Dark Era was.

However, he can determine that

The Thousand Year Island, the White Pagoda, the God Burial Mountain, and the Prison Ship all locked onto an extremely frightening existence. These four taboos were a prison, and these people had experienced the suppression from Heaven called the Ancient Guardians Energy and they had traveled countless years to live until now!

According to what the voice that came from the Thousand Year Island said, they had been in prison for fifty thousand years, and if this Ancient Dividing Energy from Heaven were to really leave, it would be the case, then these four terrifying existences would be able to break through the suppression of the prison and reappear in the world!

"join? You have never even tried to escape and you have already planned such a ridiculous thing. Aren't you imagining too much?"

Suddenly, in the depths of the blood-red fog, the bone pagoda trembled while an extremely arrogant ice-cold voice sounded.

"So the terrifying existence on the island was known as Old Man Huo. Could he be a mighty figure from the bloodline of an evil cultivator?" The woman on the ape's shoulder thought to herself.

"Heaven is so cruel, for throwing us on this despicable land, not only that, even just us four, the old men who are able to survive the Ancient Guardians Energy."

Thousand Years Island, Old Huo's feminine voice sounded once again, "But don't worry, we can join forces to steal Luo World's Core..."

Just as he said this, a thunderous roar suddenly sounded from the distant God Burial Mountain.

"Shut up! Are you looking for death, you old bastard Huo! You even still dare to mention this !!"

It was only one sound, yet it reverberated through the nine heavens and revealed anger, and it caused the calmness of the nearby river to suddenly collapse.

The Giant White Ape felt a sharp pain in his eardrum, and his mind almost collapsed from shock.

On the other hand, the head of the woman sitting on the big white ape's shoulder buzzed when she heard this, and her expression instantly changed, and immediately he circulated his entire cultivation base with all his might to withstand the impact of that power.

“Master Gun Shi, there is no need for you to be so angry. Many years ago when the Boundaries of Darkness dropped, perhaps one should be a little afraid when discussing this matter. But now, the power of the Darkness Restriction was further weakened, and it would definitely disappear completely within the next few years. So, why should we be afraid of his strength now?”

Thousand Years Island, Old Huo spoke again, "You are Master Gun Shi, who was once a scourge and made fear in the hearts of Ashura World cultivators, he said, why is it still not able to come out of the shadow of that power?"

The mountain of the god burial, rumbling sounds echoed once more. This terrifying existence was called "Gun Shi!"

“Haha, I'm just worried that the Old Monster in the pagoda won't approve." Old Man Huo chuckled

In the depths of the blood-red fog, an extremely arrogant voice sounded once again from within the white pagoda. "If you share it with me, then how can I disagree?" This person was called Old Demon Wuling!

"Is that so? But there was only one Bone Seal from the Ghost King Hun Long. If I give it to you guys, then Martial Yujin will definitely not agree.”

Old Huo said nonchalantly, "In addition, don't forget that Martial Yujin is the strongest of all here!"

Once these words were spoken, the surroundings became silent.

When he heard that, the woman in the giant white ape subconsciously looked towards the distant prison ship. That skinny figure was called Martial Yujin.

Moreover, based on the situation, no matter if it was Old Huo on Thousand Year Island, Wuling on the White Pagoda or Gun Shi on the God Burial Mountain, the, they were all somewhat afraid of the figure imprisoned on the ship!

After a while, Old Man Huo spoke once more. "In my opinion, let's do as I suggested earlier. If we join forces, we can share the Heavenly Bone Seal. Otherwise, we will definitely suffer a great loss if we fight each other."

Just then, a cold and indifferent voice sounded from the ship's prison.

"Depends on each of you're abilities."

It was only a few words, yet it seemed to contain an extremely extraordinary meaning.

The terrifying strength caused the other three to go silent for a long time.

"Indeed, this Martial Yujin is the strongest!"

On the giant white ape, the woman's heart trembled.

After which, an indescribable gloomy feeling could not help but appear in his heart.

The ruins left behind by this Eternal Dragon Palace would definitely attract the attention of the entire world. Previously, many cultivators had entered it, and they were determined to obtain wealth within it.

Even he himself was no exception. Otherwise, he wouldn't have bothered to return to this region.

But now, the woman was well aware that no matter which cultivator came this time, they would definitely fail!

Even if they could find wealth within the ruins of the Eternal Dragon Palace, they would still be killed by the terrifying existence hidden within the four great taboos when they came out!

When he thought up to here, his heart trembled, and he stirred up the thought of retreating.

However, he did not dare to act rashly.

He knew very well that the four terrifying existences had seen him. The reason why they did not care to pay attention to him was probably because they had treated him as someone insignificant and ignored him…

When he thought up to here, the woman could only sigh.

If it was in the past, he could be said to be a legendary existence in the mortal world, and it was enough to make any cultivators to lower their eyebrows and stare respectfully.

However, at this moment, he realized that the situation looked as if the existence of Immortal cultivators were meaningless …

The atmosphere in this sea area is again oppressive and quiet.

Everyone is waiting.

…

Inside the ruins of the Eternal Dragon Palace, the unusual roars and movements from before had returned to silence.

On the nine-story jade platform.

Feng Zun looked surprised.

The Bone Seal inside the jade box he found was actually refined from an ancient Primordial Demon Bone that likely had a cultivation above the Immortal God Realm. It seemed to be only the size of a child's palm, yet it was engraved with nine layers of rune barriers that possessed the energy level of the Great Dao!

A rune was an intricate pattern that formed like a formation diagram, each layer of Dao Rune could be said to be extremely deep and vast like an ocean.

The nine-layer dao pattern barrier contained on this small Bone Seal was made to be extremely extraordinary. It could be considered a divine treasure!

When referred to as a divine treasure, it contained the secrets of the more profound Dao path, it was actually a treasure that could only be refined and used by cultivators above the Immortal God realm.

Feng Zun himself had even possessed some treasures at the Heavenly level, for example the Universe Ark and the Fantian Emperor Sword. He could use all the treasures at that level because he had an infinite supply of Qi energy and had a solid Great Dao foundation.

With the understanding of his Heavenly Treasure, he was naturally able to see some hints of this bone seal with a single glance.

This seal was left behind by the Ghost King Hun Long.

The original form of the Ghost King Hun Long was a True Spiritual Beast, “Bai Ze”. The seal that he had perfected with a piece of his own life bone would definitely be destined to be far from what an ordinary treasure could compare to.

Right now, Feng Zun could only tell from the nine-layer dao pattern spiritual power of the seal that this treasure was a secret key!

Controlling this treasure was equivalent to grasping the control of the ruins left behind by this Eternal Dragon Palace, and all of the Restriction Formation energy distributed within it could be controlled by this seal.

As for whether this treasure contained another secret, he had to investigate it with further Divine Perception.

However, Feng Zun did not do so.

Although his spiritual awareness was strong, but his cultivation level was still insufficient. It would be unwise to rashly sense the secret treasures left behind by an ancient cultivator.

After some thought, Feng Zun looked at the dark golden jade slip.

*note: Thousand Year Island is Old Huo, God's Burial Mountain is Gun Shi, White Pagoda is Wuling, and Prison Ship is Martial Yujin.
