Urban Extraordinary Immortal Doctor
Chapter 2401: Immortal Suppressing Hall
"Fan Hua, don’t worry, your father will be fine..."
Fang Bai gave Fan Hua a reassuring look and then turned and walked out of the Immortal Cave.
Although the Blood Demon Powder causes great harm to immortals, Fang Bai indeed has more than one way to rescue the Antarctica Immortal Emperor.
However, Fang Bai did not want to act under the gaze of so many Immortal Emperor Realm experts, and decided to send them away first.
Fang Bai, who dislikes procrastination, handed over the promised few drops of the Water of Life and petals of the Chaos Lotus to several Immortal Emperor Realm experts outside the cave, letting them distribute among themselves.
As for how those Immortal Emperor Realm experts would distribute them, that was their own business, and Fang Bai had no intention or power to manage it.
"The Water of Life and petals of the Chaos Lotus are only these. They’re all given to you."
Fang Bai took off the Space Immortal Ring containing a few drops of the Water of Life and petals of the Chaos Lotus from his finger and tossed it to an Immortal Emperor Realm expert for verification, to show he had no hidden agenda, lest these immortals would still covet his treasures and do him harm in the future.
Fang Bai’s Five Elements Space Ring still remained on his finger, but had been concealed, blending completely with his body, so that no immortals could detect it.
In the eyes of the Immortal Emperor Realm experts present, Fang Bai no longer had the Space Immortal Ring, indicating he didn’t have any more Water of Life or Chaos Lotus petals.
Seeing Fang Bai leaving with the Antarctica Immortal Emperor and Fan Hua along with other immortals riding on auspicious clouds, the group of Immortal Emperor Realm experts started noisy distribution of the Water of Life and Chaos Lotus petals.
"Uncle, where are we going?"
Fan Hua couldn’t help but ask since Fang Bai had yet to begin treating her father.
Fang Bai replied, "When I rescue your father, I cannot be disturbed by any immortals, so I need to find a secluded place."
Fan Hua looked worried, muttering, "But, where can we find such a secluded place?"
Fang Bai chuckled and said, "Just follow me! Rest assured, your father is my closest friend, I won’t let anything happen to him."
Having spent time with Fang Bai, Fan Hua knew he’s a capable immortal and had complete trust in his words, thus didn’t speak any further.
Flying tens of thousands of miles, they arrived at a stretch of mountains, landing atop a peak towering ten thousand feet.
On the peak, there stood only one great hall. The hall looked worn and dilapidated, aged by countless years.
Standing before the hall, one could sense its majestic aura tinged with a sinister vibe, sending shivers down the spines of Fan Hua and other immortals, as if they had arrived at the underworld Yellow Springs.
"Fang Bai, what is this place?"
Xia Chenyu asked with a frown, disliking the gloomy atmosphere, eager to leave quickly.
Fang Bai pointed forward, saying, "This hall... is called the Immortal Suppressing Hall, said to have been built by a Demon Clan Emperor millions of years ago..."
Fan Hua widened her eyes in surprise, "Demon Clan Emperor? Isn’t that an existence much stronger than the Immortal Emperor? But... why would he come to the Immortal Realm to build a hall?"
Although Fan Hua’s cultivation level isn’t high, her father being at a high rank in the Immortal Emperor Realm meant she was well-versed in the hierarchy of the Immortal Realm.
The Immortal Emperor is the highest-ranking expert in the Immortal Realm, but not the supreme ruler; above the Immortal Emperor is the Great Emperor, who is truly the most powerful being.
However, for an Immortal Emperor to become a Great Emperor is like a thousand troops crossing a single log bridge, rarely happening across millennia.
Millions of years ago, the realms of immortal, demon, and monster each saw Great Emperors emerge, but after the fierce war involving all three realms, they all vanished without a trace, their fate unknown, and to this day no immortal has comprehended what truly transpired.
Why there’s an Immortal Hall built by a Demon Clan Emperor in the Immortal Realm puzzled Fan Hua.
Fang Bai said, "It’s said millions of years ago, the Demon Clan Emperor marched into the Immortal Realm alone, slaughtered countless immortals, and buried their bodies beneath this mountain, building this Immortal Suppressing Hall atop it to mark his accomplishments..."
Fan Hua, Xia Chenyu, and the other immortals frowned as they listened, thinking the rumors of the Demon Clan being cruel and violent, bloodthirsty and murderous, indeed were true; that the Demon Clan Emperor slaughtered so many immortals and even built an Immortal Suppressing Hall in the Immortal Realm, clearly mocking the immortals of the realm.
"Was the hall reduced to such ruins by later immortals?"
Fang Yun asked.
She felt that the immortals of the Immortal Realm would not tolerate such a humiliating structure in their midst and would surely try to destroy it.
Though she didn’t understand why, if the Immortal Suppressing Hall was indeed destroyed by immortals, why were there still remains?
Fang Bai said, "Later generations of immortals indeed wanted to destroy the Immortal Suppressing Hall, yet what the Demon Clan Emperor built cannot be easily destroyed. Not even the combined attacks of many Immortal Emperors inflicted any damage on it. Eventually, an Immortal Emperor acted, destroying the Immortal Suppressing Hall. However, he left it in this state as a reminder to immortals..."
Fan Hua’s eyes showed admiration, murmuring, "The Immortal Emperor who destroyed the hall must have been immensely powerful, right?"
Fang Bai replied, "Indeed, he was the Invincible War Emperor of that era, unmatched throughout the Immortal Realm..."
As he spoke, seeing Fang Yun, Xia Chenyu, and Qin Yaorao were looking at him strangely as if they had guessed something, he pointed to his nose and said, "Yes, that Immortal Emperor was me."
Fang Yun chuckled, "Little brother, isn’t this self-praise?"
Xia Chenyu also laughed, "Isn’t that Invincible War Emperor the Emperor’s Palace Master?"
Qin Yaorao said, "Judging by his proud look, he must be!"
They knew Fang Bai’s past life, thus weren’t astonished, yet Fan Hua was taken aback, looking at Fang Bai in disbelief, "Uncle, you... you’re the Immortal Emperor who destroyed the Immortal Suppressing Hall?"
Though she knew Fang Bai was her father’s close friend before his passing, and her father had told her of Fang Bai’s immense prowess when quite young, she didn’t know Fang Bai’s true background.
Fang Bai asked, "Is there any doubt?"
Fan Hua said, "But your cultivation level...isn’t it Immortal King Realm?"
She wanted to say, "You’re not even an Immortal Emperor, how could you be related to the Invincible War Emperor or the Emperor’s Palace Master," but thought that was impolite, so she expressed it more gently.
Fang Bai naturally understood Fan Hua’s thoughts, smiled, turned to Fang Yun and others, "You all stay here, explain to Fan Hua my past and present. I’ll take the Antarctica Immortal Emperor inside the Immortal Suppressing Hall to treat his wounds. If any immortals intrude during our time there, the hall’s formation will activate to protect you!"
With that, Fang Bai led the Antarctica Immortal Emperor into the Immortal Suppressing Hall.
