Invading the Consciousness Demon Domain
The Consciousness Barrier, which had stood silently on the Void River for countless years, was suddenly opened on this day.
After their previous attempt to ambush the newly emerged Consciousness Demon failed, the strongest demonic Consciousness Demon in the Consciousness Demon Domain opened fire in the nearby Consciousness Domain. After suffering heavy losses on all sides, they retreated to their respective domains and went into hiding.
Therefore, they all withdrew their respective Consciousness Demon Army deployed in this area, and now only a few small fish and shrimp remain in this vicinity.
The Super Consciousness Demon concluded that the "food" on the other side of the Consciousness Barrier would not actively attack the Consciousness Demon Domain in recent years, so they stopped paying attention to this side and focused their attention on each other.
Therefore, this area has now become a gray zone within the Consciousness Demon Domain, with only some newly born Consciousness Demon lurking in the vicinity.
Therefore, when the Void Airship that rushed out of the passage shattered them with the Immortal Power cannons mounted on their bows, these Consciousness Demons were still caught up in their fierce battle and killing.
The powerful firepower of the Void Airship Fleet quickly cleared the Consciousness Domain of several nearby worlds, then deployed a blockade network to seal off these worlds, temporarily forming an isolation zone.
"There are so many scattered concepts in this Consciousness Domain. Even the Consciousness Demon we destroyed shouldn't have had this many concepts..."
Standing on the flagship of the Void Airship Fleet, the Foundation Establishment Heavenly Venerable's phantom slowly emerged behind Bai Qiuran. Then, his domain gradually spread out from under the feet of the Foundation Establishment Heavenly Venerable, slowly extending into this Consciousness Domain, gathering the scattered concepts within it.
"The Consciousness Demons are not united. In fact, according to our research, Consciousness Demon that are born naturally are often hostile to each other, and devouring each other is the norm."
The Immortals on the flagship explained to Bai Qiuran, "When the Immortal Ancestor created his own Consciousness Demon Consciousness Barrier, he was attracted by the fluctuations in the Consciousness Domain, and the Consciousness Demons found nothing. A war must have taken place here."
"You mean they started cutting right here?"
"Yes, this is the normal state of Consciousness Demon."
Bai Qiuran looked beyond the Void Airship. From the perspective of Immortals, they could only see a colorful and interconnected Consciousness Domain. But from the perspective of Consciousness Demon, they could see large and small fragments of concepts floating in the Consciousness Domain and the Void.
These concepts are not complete concepts, but merely the remnants left behind by the Consciousness Demons after their fierce battles and mutual devouring. Absorbing these remnants does not allow the Consciousness Demon to grasp entirely new concepts.
However, absorbing it isn't without its benefits. For the Consciousness Demon, anything related to Consciousness and spirit can serve as sustenance. In short, it's tasteless to eat but a pity to throw away, something like chicken ribs—better than nothing.
Since they were already there, Bai Qiuran accepted all comers without hesitation. The Foundation Establishment Heavenly Venerable fully activated the expansion of his domain, devouring all the concept fragments scattered across these worlds into his domain.
After absorbing these conceptual fragments, the Foundation Establishment Heavenly Venerable's domain also contains the "possibility" of these concepts. This means that in the future, the Consciousness Demon in the Foundation Establishment Heavenly Venerable Domain still have the possibility of comprehending and mastering these concepts. Although the probability is extremely small, it is not entirely impossible.
"Let's set up camp here, build a city, and then send people to search the Material World of these worlds."
Bai Qiuran issued the order according to procedure.
"Yes."
After the order was given, small but fast ships immediately separated from the Void Airship Fleet. Some Immortals rode in them, passed through the passage, and returned to the other side to report the situation. After a short while, one after another, transport airships slowly sailed out from the passage on the Consciousness Barrier and arrived at the predetermined locations in these worlds. Then, Immortals specializing in refining took out divine gold and precious jade from the ships and activated True Fire to refine them. Immortals Runes and Formation inscribed Formation Runes on them.
Before long, one after another, Void Outpost from the Immortal Realm appeared in the outer Void of these worlds, connecting with each other and strengthening the defensive capabilities of the blockade network.
After the outposts were built, the Void Airship slowly moved forward, forming a matrix of six transport ships and one combat ship, approaching each other and then miraculously merging together.
The Immortals on the flying boat flew out of the ship and worked together to cast spells. The matrices slowly transformed into huge Immortal City. The walls of the Immortal City were covered with various Formation Runes and densely packed Immortal Power cannons, which looked extremely powerful.
Seeing that the Immortals had completed the initial construction in an orderly manner, Bai Qiuran gave a few instructions and then delegated command to the flagship's captain. He then led a group of girls to the Material World of these worlds.
Consciousness Demons possess the Consciousness and instinct to erode and control the Material World, but they do not choose to establish Religious Sect.
The reason why the Blood Hatred Consciousness Demon and the Pleasure Consciousness Demon established their own religions was actually out of necessity. Their first wave was originally meant to devour the souls that "created" them, but Bai Qiuran thwarted them. The Pleasure Consciousness Demon was forced to vomit out Souls it had already consumed and returned to the Consciousness Domain to resurrect itself in seconds. As for the Blood Hatred Consciousness Demon, Bai Qiuran simply blocked its entrance, preventing it from even leaving the spring.
Unable to leave the Consciousness Domain to hunt living souls, they reluctantly chose to influence the Material World through dreams and Book of Questions, establishing religions based on their own concepts to strengthen themselves.
But this is the domain of Consciousness Demon, and nothing can restrain Consciousness Demon. The Consciousness Demons living here generally don't have the patience to establish any religion.
At most, they raise creatures from the Material World in a "captive" manner to slowly hunt and consume them for food.
Unlike the Consciousness Demons, the Consciousness Demon Clone on the Immortals side can preach in the Material World while fighting. When the Foundation Establishment Heavenly Venerable's domain expands, if there are still living beings in the Material World of that world, the Foundation Establishment Heavenly Venerable and a series of Consciousness Demon can accelerate the development of the local Material World through passive abilities, thereby enhancing their power. In turn, the faith of these living beings can also be fed back to the Foundation Establishment Heavenly Venerable.
The Immortals could choose to join forces with the beings of the Material World; the more food the Consciousness Demons had, the more allies the Immortals would have.
Therefore, Le Zhentian's plan was that wherever the Immortals went, they would proceed cautiously, first establishing a defense system, then exploring the Material World, and expanding the territory of the Foundation Establishment Heavenly Venerable to the Entire World.
In this way, we can gradually erode the domain of the demonic Consciousness Demon.
"Let's go."
Leaving the flagship of the Void Airship Fleet, Bai Qiuran swung her sword and cut open the entrance to the Material World, leading Jiang Lan and the others, as well as some Immortals teams responsible for preaching or conducting research, inside.
Upon entering the Material World, a gust of sand blew in their faces. Bai Qiuran raised her hand and released her True Essence to protect the group of girls. Then, the whole group walked out of the passage and looked at the Material World in front of them.
As far as the eye could see, there was a desolate desert, utterly silent and devoid of any sign of life.
