Fantasy: I'm Really Not A Supreme Master!

Chapter 207: Chapter 185: The Investigation of the Immortal King_2

“`

Clad in a white dress that cascaded like a waterfall of tassels, her pitch-black hair casually draped over her shoulders, her graceful figure was like a masterpiece crafted by the heavens and earth.

Her delicate jade-like hands, crystal clear, gently sprinkled the last ladle of Jade Dew onto the Moon-ranked flowers. She then smiled, her red lips parted slightly, revealing a hint of pearly teeth, her smile as radiant as a crescent moon, making the flowers in the entire garden burst into bloom!

Her eyes, like the purest lakes atop the highest heavens, her nose perfectly sculpted, and her eyebrows arching like crescent moons.

“By this time next year, these Moon-ranked flowers should be blooming.”

She smiled again.

Just then, in a birdcage hanging under the eaves behind her, a parrot adorned with rainbow feathers suddenly opened its eyes, squawking loudly:

“Causality, causality, causality!”

The woman in the white dress turned slightly, and ripples gently danced across the lake-like depths of her beautiful eyes:

“What significant event has occurred in the river of causality?”

She thought for a moment and decided to take a look for herself. With a fluid movement of her lush jade hand, the light and shadows around her abruptly shifted!

She was now within the timeless river of causality.

——

“Burn away all the fog!”

Immortal King Yulan bellowed as he continuously formed seals with his hands, ancient, terrifying spellcasting methods stirring the causality within the annals of time!

Everything around him boiled and blazed. Three droplets of Immortal King Blood transformed into three fearsome suns, evaporating everything.

But the fog ahead seemed endless!

To this point, they still could not discern the true history.

The Immortal King’s Essence Blood was nearly burned out!

The fog was dense, concealing everything from view!

Seeing this, Yulan’s eyes conveyed utmost gravity:

“Antuo, this causality is too bizarre, to this extent and still beyond our comprehension… I recommend you give up!”

He sensed a bad omen!

However, the eyes of Antuo Immortal King blazed with divine light!

“Impossible!”

“The more it is so, the more I want to see the truth!”

“Causality has already formed; a battle of fate is inevitable in the future: it will be either his death or mine!”

“I, Antuo, am willing to bear all the causality with this Immortal King’s body, I must witness this truth!”

Antuo roared as he stepped forward, ready to burn even more of his essence blood!

Yulan’s face changed dramatically!

By doing this, Antuo was truly risking it all; burning too much Immortal King Blood would terribly affect himself!

Keep in mind that each drop of Immortal King Blood takes tens of thousands of years to cultivate!

In doing so, Antuo’s cultivation level might regress significantly!

But Yulan did not stop him, knowing that this causality might involve a life-and-death matter for both in the future!

Antuo’s vitality surged!

But at that moment, a faint voice arose:

“You seek to bear all causality – are you truly capable?”

Suddenly, Immortal King Yulan and Antuo Immortal King were both startled and swiftly turned to look in the direction of the voice.

They saw a woman in a white dress approaching at a leisurely pace, as astonishingly beautiful as the moon, ethereal and otherworldly, stunningly striking.

“Who are you… and how have you come here?!”

Immortal King Yulan spoke with a deep voice, his eyes full of astonishment and uncertainty!

Keep in mind that this river of causality was something he had opened for Antuo Immortal King; almost all the causality within belonged to Antuo!

Only he and Antuo Immortal King were supposed to be able to enter.

The river of causality was a secret among secrets, enigmatic and not to be interfered with or spied upon by anyone.

The most hidden of hidden!

But now, a woman had appeared!

This was too bizarre!

And Yulan, an Immortal King of the Immortal Domain, had never before seen this woman!

Anyone who could tread within the river of causality was an existence above Immortals – so why did he not recognize her?

“Why can’t I be here? Heaven and earth, Nine Nether Yellow Springs – wherever I wish to go, there I go.”

The woman in white spoke softly, directing her gaze toward Antuo Immortal King, saying:

“I advise you, don’t seek death.”

Upon hearing this, Antuo Immortal King’s expression darkened as he responded:

“Since you are not my enemy, please do not meddle in my affairs, lest you form causality with me!”

His words carried a threatening tone.

The woman in the white dress heard this and simply smiled, saying:

“You fear causality like a tiger, yet you dare to strike at this fog? Truly laughable.”

“Whether it is laughable or not, I do not need you to teach me!”

Antuo snorted coldly, turned away, and proceeded to take a step forward, heading straight into the fog!

He intended to use the Dao Fruit of an Immortal King to pierce through the fog of causality!

His body erupted in terrifying brilliance, the eternal power of the Immortal Path endowed upon him, rendering him invincible against all magic!

The fog seemed unable to stop him!

“Really though, can it be done? What exactly is hidden inside…”

Even Immortal King Yulan was becoming hopeful.

“`

“Break!”

Antuo Immortal King roared with rage, shaking the mist!

But, it was at that instant!

Within the mist, a phoenix’s cry suddenly rang out—

Clear and lofty as the sounds of the ninth heaven, profound as the sounds of the great Dao, piercing through all the mist, echoing throughout the river of cause and effect!

Within the mist, Antuo Immortal King suddenly recoiled, his figure staggering, barely able to stand, with a trace of fresh blood at the corner of his mouth!

In his pupils, an incredible light shone forth!

“Antuo, brother, what happened, what did you see?!”

Yu Luan hurried forward!

In Antuo’s eyes, flickering uncertainly, he said:

“The True Phoenix Clan still has remnants…”

He spoke eight words!

Upon hearing this, Yu Luan’s eyebrows immediately contorted!

The True Phoenix Clan still has remnants…

He was shocked!

“I understand now, you were part of the great war that exterminated the True Phoenix Clan in ancient times, so this link of cause and effect was forged hundreds of thousands of years ago… only to emerge now!”

Yu Luan spoke slowly, word by word, revealing a hidden truth!

In ancient times, Antuo Immortal King had participated in a clan-annihilating war!

“The causations of the past, resolved in this life… Although I didn’t fully discern the vision within the white fog, I have understood everything…”

Antuo Immortal King muttered, looking at Yu Luan, he said: “Yu Luan, brother, let’s retreat.”

Yu Luan, the Immortal King, nodded.

The two turned back, both gazing at the mysterious woman in white who appeared within this long river.

“I hope there is no cause and effect between us!”

Antuo Immortal King spoke icily, and after he finished, they instantly disappeared from this world.

The woman in white, however, looked toward the mist.

“The True Phoenix Clan? Why do I feel that he did not probe the true secret hidden in the white fog? He must have only glimpsed the tip of the iceberg?”

“Quite interesting…”

Having said that, she too left the place.

The next moment, she reappeared in her garden, the time brief, as if she had never left at all.

“Wang Cai requests an audience with the master!”

At that moment, a respectful voice suddenly echoed from outside.

“Come in.”

The woman in white spoke indifferently.

An old man in white walked in, his eyes wild yet very respectful at this moment, he said:

“Master, Wang Cai has come to ask for leave on behalf of my grandson…”

“Oh? Which one?” The woman in white asked.

Old man “Wang Cai” said:

“The one tending your seedling garden, his name is Bai Shaoyang… My clan is soon to hold a ‘True Monarch Blessing Convention,’ to bestow blessings on the branches of various realms, helping them purify their bloodlines. Bai Shaoyang wishes to select a few seedlings to serve you in the future.”

The woman pondered for a moment, then said:

“Go ahead, have him scout for any traces of the Phoenix along the way.”

“Keeping a Phoenix as a pet should be quite nice.”

After speaking, she herself entered the great hall.

Old man “Wang Cai” bowed deeply towards her departing figure, saying:

“Yes, master!”

Afterward, he left the Immortal Palace.

As he passed the gate, two Golden Lions standing guard at the entrance spoke:

“White Tiger Immortal King, how is the master’s mood today?”

Old man “Wang Cai” took a moment to think, then said:

“It should be pretty good, the master planted Moon-ranked flowers, and even told my grandson Bai Shaoyang to go down to the Lower World and look for Phoenix traces!”

The other Golden Lion nodded, saying:

“That’s good, White Tiger Saint Sovereign, please leave and return swiftly, it’s your turn to guard the gate tomorrow.”

White Tiger Saint Sovereign said, “I’m aware!”

A noble Immortal King, reduced to the role of a gatekeeper dog “Wang Cai” in this place, yet his expression was so natural, as if it was always meant to be this way…

…

And at this moment.

In the Lower World.

In the Heavenly Realm.

In the Southern Territory, within a small mountain village.

In the courtyard, a certain Earth Chicken that was just resting with its eyes closed suddenly opened them.

“Cluck cluck cluck~~~”

It crowed a few times, and the surrounding flock of chickens suddenly turned to look at it…

…
