Immortal Body Clones, 1.8 Billion Combat Power! Causing Trouble for the Eryi Mother Body!

Under normal circumstances, for someone at the Tribulation Transcendence peak to nurture an Immortal Body, the minimum requirement was one hundred Immortal Essence Stones.

But Chen Yi was no ordinary Tribulation Transcendence stage cultivator, and his clones were no proper clones either, so his minimum standard was somewhat higher—at least one hundred and twenty Immortal Essence Stones to start.

After all, there was a reason behind his clones. They were not sustained by the native Heaven and Earth essence of the Ziwei Continent, but by the friendly sponsorship of the Tribulation Transcendence!

One had to know that after the Ziwei Continent had undergone countless changes over the long years, it had long since become inadequate. At its current world level, it could support at most three Tribulation Transcendence stage cultivators. How could it possibly sustain Chen Yi's forty-nine one-star clones?

It still had to be his old friend, the Tribulation Transcendence, which could endlessly provide terrifying lightning power—and Chen Yi was exceptionally skilled at reverse-refining heavenly lightning into the purest origin energy!

Unfortunately, although the lightning sent down by the Tribulation Transcendence was of an extremely high grade, it was entirely condensed from destructive power. It could only be reversed into creation power brimming with vitality, which did not meet the conditions for nurturing an Immortal Body.

That was precisely why he needed to seek out ordinary Immortal Dao Spiritual Essence to nurture his Immortal Body, and in quantities far greater than those required by ordinary Tribulation Transcendence stage cultivators.

If not for the appearance of the chat group, he truly would not have known where to find so many Immortal Essence Stones for cultivation. The lower realm was simply too barren.

Now that his ammunition was plentiful, Chen Yi immediately began fully immersing himself in tempering his clones!

In the blink of an eye, half a month passed.

With an ample supply of Immortal Essence Stones, the forty-six one-star clones had all completed their Immortal Bodies!

The advantages held by the first three clones to transform their Immortal Bodies vanished completely. Once all the clones stood on the same level, they naturally became as one whole. Chen Yi's True Body could control them with a single thought, and there would no longer be any situation where a clone had thoughts of its own.

At the same time, the inner heavens and earth within the forty-nine clones began circulating, generating their own Spiritual Aura and feeding it back to the True Body!

In an instant, Chen Yi felt the marks left on his Dao body by the erosion of time's power completely erased. Moreover, the majestic Spiritual Aura from within himself formed a thick barrier that shut the power of time outside!

It could be said that as long as his clones' Immortal Bodies did not degenerate, he would no longer age, achieving a unique state of immortality!

Ding! Your strength has increased. Combat Power data updated to: 1800000000 (1.8 billion)

The chat group's notification rang out as well, precisely detecting the Combat Power of the possessing clones.

It was also at that moment that the Ziwei Heavenly Dao, which had been watching this place, immediately sent its greetings.

"Brother, you're incredible! I feel like I suddenly have it in me again too. How about the two of us give it another try? I'm ninety percent certain I can evolve sub-Immortal Dao laws again!"

Chen Yi ignored it, remaining immersed in comprehending the changes to his clones.

A moment later.

"Mm, after the clones nurtured Immortal Bodies, their base attributes increased greatly. If they were fused into a four-star Immortal Body clone again... it could probably rise from possessing sixty percent of the True Body's strength to around eighty percent. Still not quite enough..."

"Looks like I still need to find a way to break the Forty-Nine Extreme Numbers and try synthesizing a five-star Immortal Body clone!"

Chen Yi's True Body's gaze deepened. His will instantly crossed endless time and space, descending in the blink of an eye upon the two one-star Immortal Body clones guarding the cosmic void.

By now, half a month had passed since the Eryi Mother Body hid inside the spacetime rift. It had emerged once during that period, but unfortunately, it had been overly cautious. After leaving behind two mature-bodied evil demons to cover its retreat, it turned and hid again.

But now that its hiding place had been exposed, how much longer could it hide?

It was merely a turtle in a jar!

If not for the complicated situation beyond the spacetime rift, where the two one-star Immortal Body clones had taken turns entering but found nothing, it would likely have already been brutally slain!

But it could hide for a time, not for a lifetime!

Now that Chen Yi sought a method to break the Forty-Nine Extreme Numbers, this Eryi Mother Body, capable of splitting into countless evil demon clones, held tremendous reference value!

Even if it would rather be worn to death inside the spacetime rift, it would be useless. Chen Yi would send all forty-nine Immortal Body clones inside to dig three feet into the ground if necessary, just to find it!

Alive, he wanted to see the person; dead, he wanted to see the corpse!

But a living specimen was always more valuable than a corpse. Unless absolutely necessary, Chen Yi did not wish to press it too hard and drive a dog to leap over the wall. If it truly dissolved its Dao into nothingness, he would gain nothing at all.

Thinking this, Chen Yi pondered for a moment, then stepped forward and transmitted his voice toward the spacetime rift where it hid:

"I know you can hear me. You're about to run out of strength, aren't you? How about this—we make a deal. Tell me everything I want to know, and I will ensure your true spirit remains undying and allow you to reincarnate on the Ziwei Continent!"

Hearing this, the Eryi Mother Body fell silent.

It truly could not hold on much longer. It had just devoured its last mature-bodied evil demon as food, yet that had only bought it enough Spiritual Aura to last another two and a half hours.

If it continued hiding, Chen Yi would not even need to act. It would die on its own.

Should it make a deal with him?

If nothing else, this pervert's credibility was still passable.

Could it trust him?

Could it?

The Eryi Mother Body hesitated for a long while. In the end, its incomparably weakened body gave it the answer.

"Swear upon your Dao heart!"

A hoarse voice emerged from within the spacetime rift. Its source could not be discerned, nor could it be locked onto.

Chen Yi did not care in the slightest. He smiled calmly. "Fine. I swear that as long as you answer my questions, I will ensure your true spirit remains undying and reincarnates on the Ziwei Continent. I will no longer pursue you to the bitter end afterward. If I violate this oath, then let my Dao heart be veiled in dust!"

The Eryi Mother Body was silent for a moment before speaking again. "What about the Ziwei Heavenly Dao? You not killing me does not mean It cannot kill me, does it? Your heart is not sincere. I cannot trust you unless you add a condition restraining the Ziwei Heavenly Dao as well!"

Chen Yi's expression darkened. "Don't refuse a toast only to drink a forfeit!"

"Now you're the one asking something of me!" The Eryi Mother Body's attitude was forceful. It believed that since this pervert had even sworn an oath, what he sought must be far from simple. The advantage was on its side!

"Ah..." Chen Yi let out a faint sigh. "What a pity. Can't keep you."

His greatest concession was to leave it alone after its true spirit reincarnated. As for how the Eryi Mother Body would face the Ziwei Heavenly Dao afterward, that would depend on its own abilities. Death was not certain, at least there was still a sliver of life.

But who could have expected the other party to insist on courting death!

What right did it have to negotiate terms with him?!

Though a living specimen held greater value, a corpse was not impossible to analyze. It would merely take more time to comprehend.

Having made up his mind, Chen Yi's True Body inside the Phantom Star Grotto-Heaven immediately waved a hand. Apart from the one clone carrying the chat group, the other forty-six one-star Immortal Body clones set out at once!

Buzz, buzz, buzz—

Forty-six shooting stars tore through the heavens, hurtling toward the deep outer-realm void!

This spectacular sight immediately stirred the Ziwei Heavenly Dao into excitement.

The direction Brother Yi's clones were heading... was the nest of the Outer Realm Demon Race!

For eighty million years, the Outer Realm Demon Race had harassed the Ziwei Continent for a full eighty million years!

Who knew how much Heaven and Earth Spiritual Aura they had plundered? The Ziwei Heavenly Dao only clearly remembered that they had devoured 9,586,114,728,652 living beings!

Those were all children It had painstakingly raised!

The Ziwei Heavenly Dao had been furious and had resisted, but in the end, It could only muddle through day by day. It truly had no way to deal with that pack of beastly scourges.

But now, It had raised a Brother Yi who was absurdly powerful. Their end had come!

Finally! Finally!

Eighty million years of grievance, eighty million years of blood and tears, were finally released!

The next moment.

Rain fell from the clear skies spanning ten thousand miles, and a rainbow shone amid the clouds.

It was weeping, and it was laughing.
