Chapter 178 Now I am immortal.
Good news: He's still alive.
Bad news: He's turned into a decrepit old man and doesn't have much time left to live.
But overall, it's still better than dying directly.
Then, Lin Hanzhou opened the mission page of the Samsara Palace.
Side Quest: Huang Xi's Request (Completed).
[Target: Wang Yuanjie (deceased).]
[Quest Reward: Three drops of World Source, already credited to your Samsara Palace account.]
Upon seeing this message, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly.
Wang Yuanjie, that legendary, resilient king, is finally dead. It was worth spending two thousand years of lifespan to kill him.
He finally got his hands on the biggest reward.
……
Afterwards, Lin Hanzhou began cleaning up the battlefield.
He searched the bodies of the four Taiyan Holy Land elders, who were already beyond dead, trying to find valuable items.
Although all four of them were peak seventh-tier experts.
However, under the siege of hundreds of mythical creatures, each comparable to a peak seventh-tier being, death was inevitable.
After all, the hundreds of mythical creatures that the lightning tribulation transformed into are not to be trifled with.
Each one of them alone is a terrifying existence capable of easily defeating most ordinary peak seventh-tier cultivators.
In other words, their lightning resistance is maxed out.
Otherwise, they would be dead in a single encounter with these mythical creatures.
After searching the four elders, Lin Hanzhou spent some time finding the treasures that Wang Yuanjie had dropped.
It must be said, the other party truly deserves to be called the Holy Son of the Holy Land.
The treasures he carried were more abundant than those of the four elders combined.
Seventh-tier spiritual artifacts, rare and precious materials, and a large quantity of cultivation pills and spirit stones—everything imaginable is available.
Especially those three, the most powerful protective treasures.
The first treasure is a mysterious bead that is entirely azure blue and radiates pure lightning power.
This is a [Lightning-Avoiding Divine Pearl] of the eighth rank, a low grade.
Its function is to perfectly absorb all lightning tribulation energy below the eighth rank.
It was precisely because of this that Wang Yuanjie was able to prevent his tribulation lightning from having the desired effect.
The second item is an antique black jade pendant, its texture warm and smooth, like mutton fat.
The surface of the jade pendant is engraved with some mysterious runes, the lines of which are smooth and neat.
This is also a low-grade eighth-tier treasure—[Soul-Suppressing Ancient Jade].
It can isolate all soul attacks, probes, possession, and other methods below the eighth rank.
It is a top-tier treasure for protecting the soul.
It was this treasure that caused all of his soul needles to fail during the first sneak attack.
This thing also protects the other party's soul, preventing him from invading the other party's divine palace space.
The third and final treasure.
It was a red and white necklace, made up of a string of scarlet unknown crystals and silvery-white mysterious metal, which looked both alluring and eerie.
This is a top-tier sixth-level treasure – the [Resurrection Necklace].
Compared to the previous two items, this treasure is of a much lower grade, only a sixth-tier top-grade item.
Don't underestimate this sixth-tier top-grade treasure; its effects are in no way inferior to the previous two eighth-tier supreme treasures.
It allows cultivators below the seventh level to automatically revive with full health when they suffer any fatal injury.
The fact that the other party has been able to stay alive is precisely due to the effect of this necklace.
However, this necklace is not invincible.
If the holder's soul is completely annihilated, or killed by some more special means, they will be unable to be resurrected.
This is why Wang Yuanjie always carries that soul defense treasure with him.
If it weren't for the Soul-Suppressing Jade, Lin Hanzhou could have killed the opponent with just a single Soul Needle, without having to go through all this trouble.
In addition, the resurrection necklace has another limitation: the number of times one can be resurrected.
The necklace resurrects its holder by relying on the energy within the necklace, and the maximum energy stored is only enough for ten thousand resurrections.
The source of this energy is the killing of powerful beings, who are then sacrificed to the necklace.
This request was quite simple, and Lin Hanzhou could easily fulfill it.
There happened to be four fresh corpses of seventh-tier powerhouses right next to him, though they were a bit burnt. He wondered if Xiang Lian would be a picky eater.
He immediately offered the flesh and blood of one of the corpses as a sacrifice to the necklace.
As the flesh and blood on the corpse turned into wisps of blood mist, they flowed into the necklace.
The resurrection necklace floated in mid-air, the entire necklace turning an eerie scarlet red.
After draining the corpses of two peak seventh-tier experts, the necklace returned to its previous red and white appearance, looking exactly the same as before.
Lin Hanzhou could clearly sense that the energy contained in this chain was already abundant.
Afterwards, Lin Hanzhou performed a soul recognition ceremony for these three incredibly powerful treasures.
Because of the death of its master, he instantly imprinted his divine soul on the three treasures and stored them all in his divine palace space.
Subsequently, Lin Hanzhou decided to test the resurrection ability of this incredible necklace.
Anyway, he's in a dream world now, so it wouldn't be a big problem if he really died.
In reality, he certainly wouldn't dare kill himself for the experiment.
Immediately afterwards, he took out his Sword Soul Thunder Tribulation and stabbed it hard into the Divine Palace within his body.
"Pfft!"
then……
Then, Lin Hanzhou's divine palace shattered on the spot.
That already incredibly old body collapsed on the spot, its life force completely gone.
He died successfully, as if he were dead as could be.
However, in the very next moment!
Lin Hanzhou, who had been lying on the ground with no life in sight, slowly stood up.
His shattered divine palace was instantly restored to its original state.
He was thus successfully resurrected.
After being resurrected, Lin Hanzhou looked around at himself and found that he had not changed at all; he was still the same old man who was about to die.
There were no aftereffects, and his lifespan remained unchanged.
From this, he concluded that the necklace could not revive those who died of old age due to the exhaustion of their lifespan.
To die of old age when one's lifespan has run out is clearly an extremely unusual way of dying.
Even so, this resurrection necklace is still incredibly powerful.
For cultivators below the seventh rank, this is an absolute life-saving treasure.
With this, you can just mindlessly charge into a fight when you get into a fight!
Anyway, you can be resurrected after you die, and there won't be any aftereffects.
In addition, the eighth-tier soul defense treasure makes up for the necklace's weakness to soul attacks.
In this way, he is now practically immortal!
"Hehehe..."
"Wang Yuanjie is such a good person! He traveled all the way down from the upper realm to bring me so many wonderful things!"
"You're too kind. We're brothers who've been through thick and thin together!"
