The Ocean of Perdition

Ning Qi stood before the jade coffin.

He manipulated the Immortal Power within his immortal body, constantly trying out various Cultivation Method.

Ning Qi first circulated the method cultivated by the Mountain Ancestor.

The method practiced by the Mountain Ancestor was Inheritance from Mount Buzhou and is a technique called the Zhou Heavenly Immortal Guidance True Cultivation Method.

This Cultivation Method is quite extraordinary, lowering the entry level for cultivators to an extremely low level. Even cultivators at the Primordial Spirit stage can enter the field, which is enough for them to cultivate all the way to the Immortal Realm.

Just by hearing its name, one can tell that this Cultivation Method is profound and extensive.

Its intention is to explore the universe, using immortals as a guide, truly filled with longing for a fairyland.

This is understandable, since Mount Buzhou was the only route from the High Antiquity times.

No matter what kind of cultivator wants to become an immortal, they must make a trip to Mount Buzhou.

Therefore, Mount Buzhou was the most powerful force in the mortal realm, and they controlled the gate to the heavens.

Furthermore, they have an overbearing rule: any cultivator who passes through Mount Buzhou must leave behind their most prized Cultivation Method.

Thus, Ning Qi came to see the cliff face engraved with various Cultivation Method that he had seen inside the remnant of Mount Buzhou.

From this one corner alone, Ning Qi realized that Mount Buzhou was probably not a benevolent entity back then.

They were like emperors among mortal monks.

The emperor rules the land, conquers the people, and makes them pay tribute to support himself and his henchmen, hoping to establish a dynasty that lasts forever.

Mount Buzhou is like an emperor among mortal cultivators; any cultivator who wants to pass through its territory must leave something behind.

No one could do anything about them, yet they had no choice but to pass through, leaving behind only the fruits of their life's work.

Of course, this is not absolute.

Ning Qi found a record in the archives.

Legend has it that there were a few exceptionally talented Tiansheng rebellious individuals who stormed Mount Buzhou, forcefully blasted open the gates to the Heavenly Realm, and entered the Heavenly Realm on their own.

Ning Qi felt an immense sense of satisfaction as he read it, but such people were ultimately only a minority.

This Zhou Heavenly Immortal Guidance True Scripture is Cultivation Method practiced by the core cultivators of Mount Buzhou. It is said that they received a lot of guidance from people in the Immortal Realm, hence the name "Immortal Guidance".

Ning Qi had already comprehended it once, and now, operating with the Mountain Ancestor Immortal Body, he had a special feeling.

For some reason, Ning Qi always felt that this Cultivation Method had some kind of flaw, as if it was incomplete.

However, Ning Qi didn't care. He was only using it as a reference and wouldn't use it as his own cultivation method.

Among this Cultivation Method, there is one Divine Ability that particularly interests Ning Qi: the Dual-Faced Immortal Movement Method!

This reminded Ning Qi of the two Mountain Ancestor bodies he had encountered before. The Mountain Ancestor had cultivated a dual-faced Dharma body, yet he had destroyed half of his own Dharma body, a fact that had always puzzled Ning Qi.

After witnessing the method practiced by the Mountain Ancestor, Ning Qi finally understood the wonder of this Secret Method.

This method is not so simple. After the Mountain Ancestor practiced the method, he condensed a dual-faced Dharma body.

One Dharmakaya represents the past, and one Dharmakaya represents the future.

When the past and the future meet, the present comes into being!

The past Dharmakaya was the form in which the Mountain Ancestor practiced the Dharma, while the future Dharmakaya is a projection of one's future self, condensed from within oneself.

After eighty-one days of continuous, Secret Method and one's own mental energy are used to condense this projection, it will be born.

He represents the hope that the past "me" has for the future "me," and also the "me" that I want to become!

However, there is a trap in this Divine Ability: only the future Dharma body can truly learn the Zhou Heavenly Immortal Guidance True Scripture.

In other words, the Zhou Heavenly Immortal Guide to the True Scripture was not prepared for the past body, but for the future Dharma body.

Before becoming an immortal, I will completely sever my past self and become a completely new "me"!

Ning Qi narrowed his eyes. This Divine Ability was indeed quite strange, making him feel that there must be a trap involved.

Unfortunately, no one but the Mountain Ancestor, who personally experienced it, could truly understand what it contained.

In any case, Ning Qi always felt that the Inheritance of Mount Buzhou was somewhat strange.

Ning Qi studied the Cultivation Method engraved on the cliff face within Mount Buzhou's body once more.

Even the final Six Paths Immortal Wheel of the Mountain Ancestor gave Ning Qi an incomplete and eerie feeling.

"Am I just imagining things?"

If someone without any foundation comes into contact with those Cultivation Method, they will be overjoyed and will not be able to see anything unusual.

However, for a powerful figure like Ning Qi, who could create his own World Lord system, it was easy to perceive the strangeness in it.

Ning Qi added some of his own understanding and used the Mountain Ancestor's immortal body to experiment, which caused a riot to erupt inside the immortal body, followed by a cloud of black smoke.

Although he failed, Ning Qi still felt that the Mountain Ancestor's immortal body was incredibly useful.

Although he possessed extraordinary comprehension, he always considered every aspect when creating his own Cultivation Method, ensuring he wouldn't make a single mistake.

Now that he possesses the immortal body of the Mountain Ancestor, he can use it as a testing ground for his cultivation Cultivation Method without having to be so cautious.

What's there to be afraid of making mistakes?

In any case, this immortal body is immortal and indestructible, and can do whatever it wants without fear of side effects, energy clashes, or even Qi Deviation.

Furthermore, the Immortal Power flowing within his body is the most perfect and purest power, making it even less likely for problems to arise.

Beside them, Hai Zu and Sheng Zu watched Ning Qi's actions with utter admiration.

It has to be this guy; he always manages to come up with something new and exciting.

Seeing that the two had awakened from their immersion in Immortal Power, Ning Qi said, "I've slightly modified this immortal body, so even you can use it."

He glanced at the two of them, a slight smirk playing on his lips, and said, "Why don't you give it a try?"

"Let's give it a try!"

The Holy Ancestor, watching from the sidelines, was already itching with desire.

However, due to their insufficient cultivation level, they found it difficult to control the immortal body of the Mountain Ancestor.

Now that they've heard that Ning Qi has modified it so they can use it too, why don't they hurry up and give it a try?

Ning Qi walked to the side and sat down cross-legged.

He took out the mountain ancestor's storage ring, preparing to break it.

While the Inheritance of Mount Buzhou is valuable, it contains some strange elements and can only be used as a reference. The ancient Dao Sacred Map of the Holy Ancestor is far superior.

Hai Zu, along with Sheng Zu, began to use Shan Zu's immortal body to perfect his own path.

For a moment, the three fell silent, each absorbed in their own cultivation.

The Boundary Sea contains worlds scattered like stars, exceptionally sparse.

Somewhere in the Boundary Sea, a colorful treasure ship is sailing on the Boundary Sea.

The five-colored treasure ship emitted a five-colored light, illuminating the pitch-black Boundary Sea.

Two Black Shadow figures stood atop a five-colored treasure boat, their feet traversing the turbulent whirlpools of the Boundary Sea.

They disregarded the turbulent whirlpools of the Boundary Sea, and were not afraid of the Twisted Monsters lurking within the Boundary Sea.

The two were dressed in extremely luxurious clothes, and they were able to travel freely in the Boundary Sea, making it clear that they were not ordinary people.

Both figures were men, one standing at the bow of the boat and the other at the stern, exchanging a few words from time to time.

"Brother, you really sensed the unusual movement of the remnant of Mount Buzhou?"

The man at the stern of the boat had delicate features and appeared quite young. He then asked a question.

At the bow of the boat, a handsome man laughed and said, "What's wrong, Brother Lin Chen? You don't believe me?"

"No, Brother Wei Xian, how could I not believe you? It's just that the remnants of Mount Buzhou have been dormant in the Boundary Sea for a long time, and I thought we would never find them again."

Wei Xian nodded.

"I told you we had incredible fortuitous opportunity, but you never believed me, Brother Lin Chen. Well, we just finished cultivating the Linglong Mountain technique, and the other half of the body has appeared."

Lin Chen couldn't help but smile as well.

"Brother, are you really going to rename that remnant of Mount Buzhou as Linglong Mountain?"

Wei Xian blinked, as if she had thought of something.

"Now that it's mine, I can call it whatever I want. Isn't the name Linglong Mountain nice? Plus, it saves me a lot of trouble, and I won't be overheard when we talk about it."

Lin Chen's expression turned serious.

"It was all my fault back then; I let the news slip, which led to Brother Wei being hunted down."

Wei Xian waved his hand and said:

"Why bring this up again? My brother, you brought trouble upon your entire family while trying to help me. I feel guilty towards you."

Both of them had tears in their eyes when they talked about the past, suggesting that they had gone through many hardships along the way.

"Back then, we ventured into the Boundary Sea together. It is my great fortune to have met you, brother."

"To be honest, if it weren't for your great fortuitous opportunity, brother, how could I have obtained the Immortal Method? I would probably be a pile of bones by now."

Lin Chen was filled with emotion.

"We are sworn brothers, yet now we are both alone. Let us not dwell on the past. If we continue our cultivation, we will eventually be able to resurrect our former friends and family!"

Judging from their words, it seems that they also obtained a remnant of Mount Buzhou, which Wei Xian has renamed Linglong Mountain.

And now, they are searching for another wreckage.

The remains had just appeared in the Boundary Sea, causing a huge disturbance.

For the two men who also had physical disabilities, their perception of it was clearly exceptionally acute.

The two were silent for a while, then resumed their conversation.

"Brother Wei, what if the other side is stronger than us when we go to search for the other fragment of Mount Buzhou?"

Wei Xian narrowed his eyes.

"We went there for exchange. I think the other party has the same things as us, so it shouldn't be a problem to just have an exchange."

"Besides, they just drew upon the remnants of Mount Buzhou from the Boundary Sea. We've had Mount Linglong for thousands of years; they shouldn't be as powerful as us."

Upon hearing this, Lin Chen felt somewhat relieved, but he then said:

"How many pieces are there in the remains of Mount Buzhou?"

Wei Xian, "There should only be three large pieces; the smaller ones can be ignored."

"In other words, besides us, there should be another group that also possesses the remnants of Mount Buzhou. I wonder which force that is?" Lin Chen asked.

"It's hard to say; you'll only know when you actually experience it."

"Alright, we'll play it by ear. No matter how many difficulties and obstacles lie ahead, we two brothers will never back down for the sake of our family and friends!"

Wei Xian declared, "These are my Wei Xian brothers!"

The two boarded a treasure boat and flew continuously towards the Boundary Sea where the True Martial Spirit World was located.

Another area of the Boundary Sea is called the Ocean of Sinking.

This place emits a faint blue light, like the seabed under the sunlight; this is called the ocean.

Furthermore, because the Boundary Sea in this place has an exceptionally powerful Boundary Sea vortex, which ordinary cultivators cannot see the end of at a glance, it has been given another prefix: sinking into oblivion.

Strangely, this Boundary Sea only has this one Boundary Sea vortex.

It both influenced and protected this place.

Within the pale blue vortex, a sacred mountain rises and falls.

It's like a special kind of world, where powerful cultivators occasionally fly out, pass through the light blue vortex, and head to the Boundary Sea for training.

The sacred mountain is shaped like a pyramid, and the area is divided according to this pyramid shape.

The lowest level is where ordinary people live, and they work like servants.

Above that, the levels are divided according to the cultivator's realm, increasing one level at a time.

The higher you go, the more abundant the energy becomes, and the stronger the cultivators there are.

In short, this is a world with an extremely strict hierarchy, where the strong are respected and possess the best of everything.

Inside a palace at the very top of the sacred mountain.

Just as the Mountain Ancestor summoned the remnant of Mount Buzhou from the depths of the Boundary Sea, an old man in the palace suddenly opened his eyes.

"Hmm, the fluctuations from the remains of the sacred mountain are finally showing signs of movement!"

He suddenly stood up, his previously emaciated body instantly becoming fuller.

"It's time for my sacred mountain lineage to see the light of day again and reclaim its glory, hehehe!"

His smile was rather sinister, like a zombie awakening after countless years.

The old man took a step and appeared outside the sacred mountain.

He stared in a certain direction, his eyes like two dark abysses, capable of swallowing everything.

Suddenly, the old man squeezed out a drop of slightly congealed blood from his finger and used it to write a talisman in the air.

A moment later, a divine talisman condensed in the void.

The blood talisman flashed with divine light, and a shadow was projected from the divine mountain behind it, flowing into the blood talisman.

Instantly, the blood talisman split into two blood lines, extending outwards towards the outer Boundary Sea.

"Hmm, both pieces of the remains have appeared?"

A stiff smile appeared on the old man's cold face.

"That's perfect, it's time to unite the sacred mountains!"

He landed back on the summit of the sacred mountain, and the next moment, a vast and powerful Dharma sound resounded throughout the entire sacred mountain.

"Issue my decree: the sacred mountain has appeared! All levels must immediately send personnel to accompany me to reclaim it!"

As the Dharma teachings were transmitted, chaos erupted throughout the pyramid-shaped sacred mountain.

"Has the Black Slaughter True Immortal awakened?"

The thought flashed through everyone's mind.

But soon, endless flattery arose from each and every level.

"Black Slaughter True Immortal, his Law Power is boundless!"

"True Immortal has appeared, and the world is without immortals!"

Afterwards, the Venerables who helped Black Slaughter True Immortal rule over the various levels immediately mobilized their troops to prepare for Black Slaughter True Immortal's departure.

About half a day later, five enormous ships flew out from inside the sacred mountain, passed through the slightly blue vortex, and entered the pitch-black Boundary Sea outside.

The five giant ships still maintained a clear hierarchy, strictly following the existing layout of the sacred mountain, dividing all the traveling beings into layers.

Strangely, the lower deck of the ship contained a large number of ordinary people; their purpose remains unknown.

The five giant ships were arranged in a triangular formation, with the one at the very top naturally carrying the Black Slaughter True Immortal.

The interior of this giant ship was completely opened up into a huge palace, filled with celestial springs, celestial wines, agarwood dews, and numerous beauties, and its interior was decorated like a wine pool and a meat forest.

The old man lay comfortably on a wooden bed of unknown material, which was five zhang wide and ten zhang long—extraordinarily huge!

The old man enlarged the immortal body, and around it, three thousand beauties were using all their skills to massage it...
