Painting of the Nine Immortals
chapter-877

“I have three questions that I am hoping Fairy Wu could answer for me.”

Ling Xian was silent for a while before speaking out.

If he didn’t see the record from the ancient book, then he wouldn’t have any doubts. But after reading it, he decided that those four mysterious places were connected.

Therefore, he decided to ask in detail about the Great Mausoleum. From this, he would be able to tell the connection between this place, the Palace of Fortune, and the Imperishable Palace.

“You may ask.”

Fairy Wu smiled brightly. Her beauty was out of the world and irreplaceably magnificent.

“First question.”

Ling Xian’s expression was serious and he asked in a low voice, “I wonder if Fairy Wu knows about the history of the Great Mausoleum?”

Hearing this, Fairy Wu was a little startled. She shot a strange look at Ling Xian, “Do you not know? Nobody knows about the history of the Great Mausoleum. Nobody knows why it is here. All we know is that it appears once every two centuries or so. Its first appearance was about 3,000 years ago.”

“Nobody knows its history…”

Noticing the key words of this statement, Ling Xian’s expression was serious. Because this point was the same as the Imperishable Palace and the Palace of Fortune. All of these places have unknown histories and they all suddenly appear in the Taoism community.

“This is something the entire Tianzhou knows about. Why don’t you know? I am surprised.”

Fairy Wu revealed how strange she thought this was. Everyone else did the same. A guess formed in their minds.

Hearing this, Ling Xian smiled faintly and admitted honestly, “There’s no need to guess. I am not from this continent.”

“No wonder it’s like you were born out of a rock. Nobody even knows your name.”

Fairy Wu had a realization but didn’t reveal much negative emotions.

Others were the same.

Tianzhou does not easily allow outsiders to enter and leave at will but that wasn’t because it hated foreigners. Therefore, Ling Xian’s honest admittance didn’t make the others hate him or anything.

All they felt was that they found an answer to their question.

“Haha, I knew it. A Heaven’s Favorite like you cannot exist so silently. So you are a talented genius from the outside continent.” Young Master Wang laughed.

Hearing this, Ling Xian smiled and then quickly wiped off his smile. “Second question. Is the Great Mausoleum its own little universe?”

“That’s right.”

Fairy Wu nodded lightly, “Ever since 3,000 years ago with the appearance of the Great Mausoleum, countless omnipotent tried to trap it and explore it fully. However, it is an independent space and even with the alliance of all the omnipotent from Tianzhou, it could not be trapped down.”

“I see.”

Ling Xian silently sighed. This was similar to the Palace of Fortune and the Imperishable Palace. No, it was exactly the same.

This made him feel like these three strange places have some sort of connection.

“The third question. Is there some kind of restriction with the Great Mausoleum? For example, only a certain level of cultivators can enter?” Ling Xian had a serious impression on his face.

“Yes.”

Fairy Wu nodded again, “The Great Mausoleum is an independent universe with various rules. Only those of the original level can enter.”

“As I thought… the Palace of Fortune was foundation, the Imperishable Palace was completion. The Great Mausoleum is original.”

Ling Xian silently sighed and he couldn’t help but frown.

It wasn’t a matter of guessing anymore. It was basically confirmed that these three places are connected. Plus, the connection between them is a shocking secret.

He cannot guess what it is exactly, but his first instinct told him that it is not ordinary.

“Interesting. Three strange places with mysterious histories that appear intermittently. Plus, they are all limited with many treasures hiding inside.”

Ling Xian whispered to himself as he felt more and more intrigued by the three mysterious places. Then, he decided he should check out the Great Mausoleum.

Ignoring the secret revolving around this place and the Imperishable Palace and the Palace of Fortune, the treasures inside alone were worthy enough for him to check out.

Especially after hearing what Fairy Wu said next, his heart fluttered.

“I heard that there is a stream of life inside the Great Mausoleum. Acquiring it would be the same as acquiring a life.”

Fairy Wu said as she laughed. She found it hard to conceal the passion in her voice.

Everyone else did the same.

What was the Stream of Life?

Similar to the Holy Spirit water, it possesses an extremely powerful source of life. This item does not have the affect to wash away curses like the Holy Spirit Water, but it could revive someone. It was considered an immortal medicine!

Therefore, Ling Xian’s eyes brightened and he thought of the Tree of the Warming Soul from the Painting of the Nine Immortals.

That item was already dead and needed life to revive it. Out of all the treasures in the world, what’s more suitable for that job than the Stream of Life?

Nothing.

If even the Stream of Life cannot revive the Tree of the Warming Soul, then probably nothing in this world can.

However, Ling Xian believed that the Stream of Life will for sure give the Tree of the Warming Soul life!

“It looks like you are considering.”

Seeing Ling Xian’s heated gaze, Fairy Wu grinned brightly, “So what’s your decision?”

“Naturally I agree to the alliance.”

Ling Xian smiled in return. Though he was confident that he could defeat the Heaven’s Favorites himself, he cannot defeat all the forces with his two fists. If a battle the scale of a war breaks out, then it would be safer for him to have some helpers.

“Very well. Then it is settled.”

Fairy Wu’s smile blossomed like a flower. Everyone else smiled as well. There was anticipation in their eyes.

It wasn’t just because of the Stream of Life, it was also because there were countless other opportunities inside the Great Mausoleum.

“I wonder if Fairy Wu knows when it will activate?” Ling Xian asked.

“Based on what the Pavilion of Opportunities calculated, it will happen in a few days. The location will be at the East Domain.”

Fairy Wu’s lips partly slightly, “Don’t worry friend. There are records from ancient books that when the Great Mausoleum activates, the sky will change. Then at once, the entire Tianzhou will be informed.”

“The entire Tianzhou? It looks like I am going to be faced with an endless amount of battling.”

The corner of Ling Xian’s lips curled up. There was no fear, merely anticipation.

“People die for wealth, animals die for food. That is the golden rule that’s been around for thousands of years.”

Fairy Wu spoke softly, “It is very normal for cultivators to fight and steal. Therefore, I wanted to form an alliance with everyone. After all, the Great Mausoleum is far too attractive. The talents from the Monuments of Heaven’s Favorites will for sure come.”

“So let them. I sure want to witness their talents.” Ling Xian smiled. The way he looked at Fairy Wu was full of passion.

Of course, it wasn’t passion out of love. It was passion out of his desire to fight.

Sensing Ling Xian’s gaze, Fairy Wu revealed a faint smile, “This is the first time a man has looked at me this way. Pity though, I don’t want to fight you just yet.”

“Then we will wait for another day.”

Ling Xian continued to smile as he downed the drink in his cup. Then, he paid his respect to the several Heaven’s Favorites. “Since we have reached a unanimous decision and there is nothing else. I will go first.”

Hearing this, Fairy Wu and everyone else straightened their bodies and responded respectfully.

“We will see each other again when the Great Mausoleum activates.”

“Alright.”

Ling Xian smiled and nodded. He then turned around to leave the Garden and head towards his motel.
