261: World Passage

In the pitch-black Void Realm.

An invisible barrier lay across it, and at one point on the barrier, a misty vortex slowly spun.

Around the vortex stood more than a dozen white-haired Peak Great Emperor figures.

They unleashed powerful forces, fiercely striking the misty vortex.

But just as their attacks were about to land on the vortex, a Seal Formation imbued with Immortal Essence appeared, neutralizing the attacks of the dozen people one by one.

"Alas, it's useless. We've attacked for so many years, and this immortal Formation still shows no signs of breaking. We are destined to grow old and die here."

"Indeed, if we can't go out to find the immortal path, we are doomed."

Seeing that their attacks had no effect.

The dozen white-haired Peak Great Emperors all showed looks of despair.

These people could be said to be the top power in this world. The worst of them had absorbed fifty or sixty immortal crystals, and the highest had absorbed over a hundred immortal crystals.

But even so, the dozen of them combined had been bombarding it for tens of thousands of years, yet they still hadn't broken through this Seal.

If they couldn't break the Seal, they would only perish when their Lifespan ran out.

"Alas, Fellow Daoists, stop sighing here. Let's get to work. As long as we keep bombarding it, one day we will break it."

"Right, right, keep bombarding it! Once we break it, we can go out and seek the immortal path in other worlds."

"Exactly. If we can't break it, we'll let our descendants come and bombard it. If our descendants can't break it, we'll let their descendants come and break it. I refuse to believe it can't be broken!"

The dozen people encouraged each other, then continued to bombard the Seal on the vortex.

They also knew that the purpose of this Seal was actually to protect this world.

But now, after 100,000 years, the Demon Race outside might have long since retreated. This Seal had become their shackles, a shackle that would only let them die of old age.

Therefore, even at the risk of the Demon Race still being present, they had to break this Seal to seize an opportunity.

After all, for those of their cultivation level, being able to only die of old age and not advance further was a very painful thing.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Earth-shattering impacts echoed in this Void Realm.

The attacks of the dozen people continuously struck the Seal again, causing ripples to spread across it.

"Eh, Sect Master, there are a dozen white-haired old men here."

Just as the dozen people were working hard, an untimely voice appeared in their ears.

Immediately, Jiang Chen, accompanied by Liu Shu, transformed into two streams of light and appeared before the dozen people.

And sensing the appearance of Jiang Chen and Liu Shu.

The dozen people also stopped their attacks and all turned to look at Jiang Chen and Liu Shu.

When they saw that Jiang Chen and Liu Shu were also Peak Great Emperors, there was no expression on the faces of the dozen people.

For them, the cultivation of Jiang Chen and Liu Shu could no longer stir any ripples in their hearts.

What they cared about now was that Liu Shu called them white-haired old men.

So three of them retorted indignantly.

"Fellow Daoist, we don't like to hear that. Back in the day, the dozen of us were all handsome, graceful men. Which one of us didn't charm countless maidens? We just don't bother to dress up anymore, which is why we look old, right?"

"Exactly! Fifty thousand years ago, the maidens who admired us numbered no less than eighty million, if not a hundred million. We were only slightly inferior to the one beside you. We are not some white-haired old men!"

"That's right, people always have to mature. We are just in the mature stage now, how can you say that about us?"

The three white-haired, white-bearded Peak Great Emperors glared at Liu Shu, puffing out their beards.

The others, though silent, also stared at Jiang Chen and Liu Shu with stern faces.

They were already people unwilling to be buried, and now being called old—wasn't that just stabbing them in the heart?

Looking at the displeased faces of the dozen people, Jiang Chen deliberately put on a stern face and scolded Liu Shu, "Xiao Shu, you are too impolite. How can you call someone old in front of elders? You should praise them for being young, understand?"

After scolding her, Jiang Chen then smiled at the dozen people, "Fellow Daoists, please don't be offended. My maidservant here just likes to speak the truth."

“...”

The dozen people were speechless.

How was Jiang Chen scolding Liu Shu? He was clearly continuing to say that they were shameless, old, and wouldn't even let others say it.

"You two..." Hearing Jiang Chen's words, some of the old Peak Great Emperors were about to get angry when they were stopped by a Yellow-Robed Elder.

"Alright, Fellow Daoists, we are indeed old. What's there to be angry about?"

The Yellow-Robed Elder uttered a sentence to the group, then calmly looked at Jiang Chen and Liu Shu and asked, "Two young Fellow Daoists, you didn't come to the World Passage just to say that we old folks are old, did you?"

Facing the Yellow-Robed Elder's question, Jiang Chen smiled and replied, "The two of us certainly didn't come specifically to say that you Fellow Daoists are old. Rather, we intend to break this Seal and go play outside the world."

"What?! You two alone want to break the Seal of this World Passage?"

Hearing Jiang Chen's words, the ten old Peak Great Emperors all looked at Jiang Chen and Liu Shu as if they were looking at idiots.
