Chapter 1082: Chapter 471: Gold Relic
Inside the Selection Immortal Pavilion.
Li Donglin lay softly on the ground as if he had lost his bones.
Elder Jiang Shou presides over the Immortal Punishment Pavilion of the Great Wilderness Immortal Realm, and can decide the fate of most immortals in the realm.
Even though he is from the Qian Daoist Palace, he must also abide by the rulings of the Immortal Punishment Pavilion.
"Why am I being exiled to the Sea of Realms?"
Li Donglin could not believe that he was being treated this way just because he did not truthfully reveal the mysterious rune he had seen?
This punishment was truly too severe!
These immortals born in the Immortal Realm seldom leave the Great Wilderness Immortal Realm.
For the harsh Sea of Realms, even smelling a hint of it makes them instinctively sick, let alone be exiled there!
At this moment, Li Donglin was consumed with endless fear.
He didn’t want to be sent to the Sea of Realms, but Elder Jiang Shou’s decisions were irreversible.
Jiang Shou returned to the main seat from the central hall of the Selection Immortal Pavilion, with Han Song following closely, not daring to leave.
Jiang Shou glanced at Li Donglin, who was lying on the ground, and suddenly clapped his hands.
In an instant, a True Immortal dressed in the Immortal Punishment Pavilion uniform appeared in front of Jiang Shou and knelt down.
"Elder Jiang Shou."
In a cold tone, Jiang Shou said, "Take Li Donglin back to the Immortal Punishment Pavilion, plant the top-secret annihilation rune in his soul, and then expel him from the Great Wilderness Immortal Realm. Remember to tell him that if he wishes to return, he should know what to do."
Upon hearing this, Han Song’s hair stood on end.
Planting the top-secret annihilation rune in the soul is a Secret Technique created by the Immortal Realm to guard secrets.
Anyone with the rune in their soul who reveals relevant secrets will have their soul annihilated.
Han Song did not expect the Immortal Punishment Pavilion to treat Li Donglin this way, and what’s even more terrifying is, he will be expelled from the Great Wilderness Immortal Realm.
He felt anxious in his heart, grateful that he had chosen to speak the truth earlier, rather than hiding like Li Donglin.
Still, Han Song was shocked by Elder Jiang Shou’s punishment.
For that strange and mysterious rune, was this really necessary?
"Yes!"
The True Immortal in uniform responded briefly and decisively, grabbing the weakened Li Donglin and disappearing from the Selection Immortal Pavilion.
Thus, only Jiang Shou and Han Song were left in the pavilion.
Jiang Shou’s purple thunder immortal eyes turned back to Han Song, and he coldly said:
"Do you think my punishment is too severe?"
Han Song was surprised inside, not daring to speak directly, and instead said:
"Since Elder Jiang Shou took charge of the Immortal Punishment Pavilion, everyone in the Great Wilderness Immortal Realm praises your fairness and strictness. I completely agree with the punishment given by Elder Jiang Shou. Even if I found it too heavy, it must be due to my lack of understanding, not a flaw in Elder Jiang Shou’s enforcement."
Jiang Shou snorted, "You know how to speak."
He continued, "Now it’s just the two of us, I kept you because you didn’t lie to me."
Han Song lowered his head, almost knocking his chin against his collarbone.
"Thank you Elder Jiang Shou for sparing me."
"It’s not sparing."
Jiang Shou coldly laughed, and suddenly, his purple thunder immortal eyes shot out two purple bolts of immortal thunder.
Bang!
The thunder exploded, shaking the Selection Immortal Pavilion.
The immortal thunder didn’t strike Han Song but interwove in the void, forming a mysterious rune that then drilled into Han Song’s forehead.
Han Song trembled all over and also collapsed to the ground.
After a while, he regained consciousness and stood up with a pale face.
Han Song instantly understood what it was; he too had been planted with the top-secret annihilation rune by Elder Jiang Shou.
"Thank you Elder for the bestowed rune!" Han Song still expressed gratitude.
Jiang Shou nodded slightly.
"Well, now you are qualified to know about the rune."
Han Song raised his head for the first time, looking at Elder Jiang Shou, not daring to ask, waiting for him to speak voluntarily.
"First tell me, why did the Selection Immortal Pavilion collapse?"
"Immortal crystal spirit stones containing the power of True Immortals, Heavenly Immortals, and Golden Immortals exploded, causing the whole pavilion to collapse."
Elder Jiang Shou asked again:
"Immortal crystal spirit stones can detect any signs of becoming an Immortal in the Lower Realm, but have never experienced an explosion. What caused it to explode?"
Han Song responded: "It undeniably has something to do with that mysterious rune, Elder Jiang Shou, you should just say it, if there are any issues, I’m willing to take all responsibility."
Elder Jiang Shou said in a deep voice: "I kept you here hoping you continue to guard the Selection Immortal Pavilion, and if that rune appears again, you must inform me immediately!"
Han Song quickly nodded.
"Aren’t you curious about what that rune really is?"
"Yes!"
Elder Jiang Shou used his finger as a pen, and immortal power flowed out of him, sketching in the void.
A vague rune appeared in the void instantly.
"How similar is the Divine Text I sketched to that rune?"
Looking at the rune, Han Song immediately felt it somewhat resembled the previous one, but only superficially, without the profound quality and complexity.
Han Song directly said, "Elder, I think only the shape is slightly similar, the rest is completely different."
"Hmm, completely different," Elder Jiang Shou scoffed at himself, "That’s normal, because that was the clan symbol of the most powerful tribe in the Immortal Realm."
"Most powerful tribe?"
Han Song was tremendously surprised; he seemed to not have heard of this before.
Jiang Shou looked at him, "It’s not surprising you don’t know, in your generation, no, among those in the Immortal Realm, most no longer know the past history of the Immortal Realm."
Hearing this, Han Song asked in confusion: "Since it’s the clan symbol of the most powerful tribe, why must Elder plant top-secret annihilation runes in us? Shouldn’t their name be celebrated by all in the Immortal Realm?"
