Fierce Battle in the Spirit Thunder Layer! Solo Blessed Land Plan

In the high sky deep within the Spirit Thunder Layer of the Four Realms, a huge light membrane was torn open with a hideous gap, emitting strange and fluctuating light, like a deep vortex.

Around the gap, streaks of purplish-blue, fierce and thin electric flames moved frequently within the dense black clouds, flashing wildly and emitting bursts of crackling sounds.

A small, earthen-yellow giant, about two zhang tall, hovered near the gap, its eyes emitting a gray light that accompanied its Divine Sense as it enveloped the earth below, sensing the surging, exciting energy of the ground.

He looked down at this new Cultivation World, and even though he had known about it for many years through various rumors, it was still far less exciting than being there in person now.

This is a new Cultivation World.

He could use the Earthly Immortal Orthodox Lineage he had acquired to plunder the blessed lands and the earth's energy deep within this new world.

Here, he doesn't need to abide by any rules and can plunder without restraint, so his strength can naturally increase rapidly.

Moreover, there are many more ancient and fragmented traditions in this world, traditions that are distinct from their own.

If one could obtain the immortal power left behind in those lineages, even if one could not inherit the lineage, one could still bring the Immortal Power back and trade it with powerful beings who needed it, thereby strengthening the lineage power of those powerful beings.

That was a rare resource that even Dao Integration Great Power were very interested in, and it was one of the purposes of his risky journey here.

However, at this moment, Pei Shenshu, Spirit Transformation from Outer Dao into a god, felt a mixture of joy and worry.

What's delightful is the abundance of resources in this untapped new world.

His concern was that his power had been suppressed.

Even though he had already obtained the broken inheritance of the Earthly Immortal Orthodox Lineage of this Cultivation World, he could weaken the strange suppression and repulsion of this world.

But this world is not just about one lineage, but about Five Great True Immortals.

He only obtained one fragment of the Daoist power, and he was not yet completely exempt from the rejection and suppression of 'Non-My Dao Cultivator' by this world.

Therefore, his power is weakened when casting spells, and the rate at which it recovers after being depleted is also much slower.

This is undoubtedly very disadvantageous and dangerous for him. Even if a few Nascent Soul who followed him in can help share some of the pressure, the top experts in this world are also exceptionally powerful.

At this moment, Pei Shenshu carefully sensed and familiarized himself with this world, his figure remaining by the opening into the curtain, without making any rash moves.

Compared to his caution, his two companions who were the first to break through the curtain and enter this world were much more aggressive. At this moment, he could still sense the battle fluctuations in the distant Spirit Thunder Layer.

But he has no intention of participating in the war.

Now that the curtain has been broken, and with the intervention of powerful cultivators, it will be very difficult to restore the broken portal.

He has plenty of time and opportunities to gradually familiarize himself with this Cultivation World; there's no need for him to fight to the death with cultivators of the same Cultivation World level.

Even if it's an intrusion, it can be done in a relatively gentle way; why be so aggressive from the start?

Suddenly, he sensed danger and felt a chill run down his spine.

A burly figure radiating intense Silver Light approached with lightning speed, suddenly raising his spear and throwing it out.

Boom! --

A compressed crimson Qi Pillar, condensed from boundless Spiritual Qi, tore through the thunderclouds and hurtled towards them.

"Dongfang Huayuan!? Are you insane?! How dare you attack me!"

Pei Shenshu was shocked and furious, and quickly dodged.

With a "boom," his figure vanished instantly, leaving behind a cloud of milky white mist that had been torn apart, narrowly avoiding the spear.

But in that instant, two beams of Silver Light shot out from Dongfang Huayuan's eyes, arriving first and piercing straight into them.

Pei Shenshu felt a sudden tremor in his heart, and the gray-brown stone armor covering his body began to writhe rapidly under the influence of the Earth Immortal Dao Power.

"You're the one I've been looking for!"

Dongfang Huayuan's expression was fierce. He grabbed the returning spear, his arm muscles bulged, and Silver Light burst forth. He suddenly swung it horizontally.

Whoosh!

The spear instantly transformed into a giant axe, its blade emitting a scorching red light.

With a loud "bang!"

Pei Shenshu's armor was instantly split in two, and the cut was filled with two streams of Dao power that intertwined, turning red and faintly melting.

The two forces collided and exploded, instantly striking Pei Shenshu's body.

The sudden change was too rapid; Pei Shenshu was unable to use any other Technique Method to avoid the damage. His body was wracked with pain, accompanied by a chilling sound of bones shattering.

Immediately, large fragments of grayish-brown stone, formed from the shattered armor, flew everywhere.

Pei Shenshu was struck downwards like a meteor.

While still in mid-air, another long spear flashing with Silver Light attacked like lightning.

Pei Shenshu out a long whistle and made a hand seal.

A large amount of earth energy, along with the power of the Spirit Transformation, gathered and formed Solid as Gold, round stone mountain around its body.

"Click!"

The spear landed on the rocky mountain, piercing straight in, and suddenly burst forth with streaks of root-like lightning.

The rocky mountain shattered and crashed heavily onto the plain below, unleashing a terrifying shockwave that swept in all directions.

In an instant, several small cultivation Lineage not far from the center of the explosion were affected.

Before these Lineage could even activate their protective formations, Lineage buildings shook violently amidst the earth-shaking tremors. The walls cracked and even collapsed from the spreading Spiritual Qi energy. Many Qi Cultivation Cultivator were knocked unconscious on the spot without even uttering a sound.

At dawn, the sound of the waves crashing against the rocks and sand never ceased, seemingly foreshadowing the endless struggles for profit that would rage throughout the Cultivation World.

From the various Fallen Forbidden Zone near the four seas and four regions, cultivators with strong spiritual power flew in one after another, including some powerful cultivators at the Spirit Transformation stage.

Such a person, once he appears, even if he tries to restrain himself, will still cause a subtle change in the Spiritual Qi within a radius of a thousand miles.

After observing the commotion in the Fallen Forbidden Zone for a moment, some people soared into the sky, passed through the Spiritual Qi Wind Layer, and flew up to the Spirit Thunder Layer, vigilantly observing the movements from the highest point of the four regions.

This situation is playing out across the entire world, as if they are closely guarding against the four realms behind the Fallen Forbidden Zone.

In the Spirit Thunder Layer of the Eastern Immortal Sea, a tall, imposing, and domineering middle-aged man had a cold glint in his eyes.

His gaze seemed to carry a sense of pressure, and although his clothes were simple, not even a robe, but rather the most ordinary coarse cloth clothing, they only accentuated his unique temperament.

At this moment, after observing for a while, he had noticed the battle fluctuations from the Spirit Thunder Layer in the far Inner Domain, and the Sword Qi emanating from his body became even more fierce, as if issuing a silent warning, like a fierce tiger defending its territory.

"Yongxin Sword Lord! The situation seems to be more serious than we imagined. Perhaps we should join forces with other fellow Daoists and borrow the power of Senluo to temporarily seal off the four domains."

An aged voice drifted from afar, followed by a bright light.

The air seemed to fill with heavenly praise, as if countless believers were worshipping a deity.

In the bright light, the figure of an old man dressed in white robes gradually appeared.

His white hair was loose, and he had obvious crow's feet at the corners of his eyes and nasolabial folds on his cheeks. He had a kind face and floated over, holding a cane with a peach hanging from it. His demeanor was calm and he appeared extremely gentle and confident.

His appearance seemed to make this dangerous Spirit Thunder Layer much safer, and the dark clouds were illuminated.

An aura of antiquity, composure, and peace emanated from him, inspiring respect and making one dare not show any disrespect.

Yongxin Sword Lord, his entire body brimming with Sword Intent, turned around and looked at the old man who had appeared. A trace of fear and coldness flashed in his eyes as he snorted.

"Mingguang Shangren, since you know that the Four Regions have gotten into such a huge trouble, and you even went to great lengths to plead for them at the Four Seas Cultivation Alliance meeting before, I know you're a nice guy, but you don't have to be nice to this extent, do you?"

He paused, then said with a hint of sarcasm, "Didn't you previously plead for those Longevity Sect cultivators who entered the sea?"

What? There are still quite a few cultivators in these four Inner Domain preparing to flee into the Four Seas. Aren't you going to be a good person and save them?"

The old man in the white robe showed no anger, looked ahead, and smiled gently.

"Sword Lord, it seems you have misunderstood me. Opportunity only favors the prepared. I am indeed willing to help fellow Daoists of the Longevity Sect within my capabilities, but I must also consider and be responsible for the safety of cultivators from all over the world."

The situation is different now.

The invasion of External Demonic Heresy from behind the scenes threatens the future of all cultivators across the land. Even our own survival is in jeopardy, and I, too, must take responsibility for the safety of all cultivators.

It's a pity that those cultivators within the four Inner Domain failed to escape; they didn't seize the opportunity.

"A hypocritical old fox."

Yongxin Sword Lord sneered inwardly, then turned to look at the Spirit Thunder Layer, his brows furrowing deeply, before returning to the main topic.

"I sensed fluctuations over there. Could it be that the Qu Shenzong Sect is fighting with those External Dao Malevolent Cultivators?"

This might just be the opportune moment you mentioned. We can immediately unite with fellow Daoists from the other three seas to seal off the four regions. Otherwise, if those External Dao Malevolent Cultivator manage to break free from the Qu Shenzong's entanglement, they might be able to..."

Mingguang Shangren chuckled and said, "Then why don't we all enter the Four Domains now and deal with these External Dao Malevolent Cultivators who dared to intrude, thus eliminating their claws and teeth once and for all?"

If we fail, it's not too late to join forces and blockade them again.

"I never would have guessed that Lingguang, who is usually so amiable, would be so ruthless and decisive this time?"

Yongxin Sword Lord's heart skipped a beat, then he coldly stared at Mingguang Shangren, chuckling to himself, and did not agree.

Joining forces to storm in sounds easy, but it's not.

But let's set aside the dangers of fighting against Spirit Transformation cultivator.

How many people would be willing to fight their way in is still unknown.

If things go wrong after we break in, those who stayed behind will return and block the passage again. Wouldn't that mean it's better to sacrifice our fellow Daoists than ourselves?

No cultivator who has reached the Spirit Transformation stage is easy to deal with; they certainly don't act like reckless fools.

"Let's just charge in. I suggest we seal off the area first. We should immediately establish a blockade along the edge of the Four Seas near the forbidden zone. Together, we'll set up the Four Seas Immortal Sealing Restriction, including strictly controlling any news, to avoid causing panic."

The top powers across the four seas indeed maintain extremely strict control over news from within the four Inner Domain.

Now, the leaders of all the major powers across the world who have received the news are filled with anxiety.

Those who hadn't received definite information, though initially panicked due to blind following, were also less afraid because of their lack of knowledge.

After all, ignorance breeds fearlessness, and thus one is less likely to panic.

Most other immortal sects only knew that a civil war had broken out in the four regions across the sea, causing the Longevity Sect to migrate en masse and flee to the East Sea.

Many cultivators from various immortal sects were even gloating and mocking the Longevity Sect, believing that the sect had suffered a defeat and that this once top-tier sect was now reduced to a defeated dog.

How could anyone know that what was happening in the four Inner Domain was not just a simple internal conflict, but rather the intrusion of External Dao Malevolent Cultivator behind the scenes?

The news being blocked was also beneficial to Chen Dengming and other Longevity Sect cultivators; at least the degree of exclusion they faced was much less.

Otherwise, if the various immortal sects and cultivators of the Eastern Immortal Sea knew that the curtain had been broken in the Four Inner Domain and that Outer Dao cultivators had invaded, most of them would definitely blame the Four Regions Cultivators.

At that time, Four Regions Cultivators may be like rats crossing the street, hated by everyone, and it will be more than just being ostracized.

Chen Dengming was certainly aware of this situation, which is why he always kept a low profile while wandering the world.

Even when some disciples were ostracized and clashed with local immortal sects and Immortal Sect Dao Gate, he would personally step in to quickly appease and resolve the situation, often taking the initiative to apologize to prevent the conflict from escalating.

In this way, they didn't cause any trouble along the way and lived peacefully.

However, this left many disciples feeling stifled and unable to vent their frustrations along the way.

Fortunately, they were disciples of the Longevity Sect, most of whom were well-versed in the art of survival and could hold back their anger.

If it were cultivators from the Tiandao Sect, they would have already stirred up chaos.

Even so, with thousands of people maintaining a tense atmosphere along the way, the situation was naturally far from good, and a shocking explosion could occur at any moment.

At that time, people were driven to murder, and the world was turned upside down.

At this moment, on a vast but utterly devoid of Spirit Vein, on a mortal island.

Four Longevity Sect spirit ships are anchored here, and thousands of Longevity Sect disciples have also temporarily settled on this island under Chen Dengming's arrangement.

The main force stopped here to rest and settle down, no longer continuing their journey, which gave the disciples, who were exhausted and feeling depressed from the long journey, a temporary respite.

At the seaside, Chen Dengming listened to the sound of waves crashing like the tinkling of a woman's anklets, felt the cool, moist sea breeze, and watched the bonfires rising in the distance and the houses being quickly built by his disciples. His tired mood from the past few days eased considerably.

Only then did he truly feel the hardship of being in a superior position, shouldering the heavy responsibility of thousands of disciples, and he missed the time when Xing Huiguang was still around.

"I wonder when Senior Brother Xing broke through to the Nascent Soul. Before the First Ancestor, when he contacted Third Martial Uncle, he never mentioned Senior Brother Xing."

Chen Dengming thought to himself, his gaze falling on the Black Panther who was mingling with a group of disciples who were roasting Sea Monster on the beach.

Now that it has left the Spiritual Qi rich place of the Longevity Sect, and is even inferior to Lüoshan City, which was once First-Rank Spirit Vein, the Black Panther's cultivation environment has gradually deteriorated along with its master. It can only eat Sea Monster and rely on the Spiritual Qi contained in the meat of Demon Beast to cultivate. It even has to hunt Sea Monster itself.

In Chen Dengming's view, this can be seen as a kind of tempering after going from extravagance to frugality.

Even so, this guy still didn't want to leave his side and was willing to suffer with him, truly showing his loyalty in times of trouble.

After all, apart from the two rows of characters on his stomach, Hei Zi was completely free and had never been subjected to any control restrictions or Law Artifact like those imposed on him by the Beast Taming Sect cultivators.

At that moment, several beams of light rapidly approached, piercing through the air.

Jiang Qiang, Black Wind, and the others rode on spiritual light back from the nearby mortal realm.

"Brother Chen!"

After landing, Jiang Qiang quickly bowed and saluted, then reported on his visit to the mortal country.

"As expected, the king was very willing for us to be stationed here."

The king said that the sect they were paying tribute to was called the Shuiyun Sect, and that the sect had a Golden Core Ancestor. He said that the gifts we sent had been accepted as tribute by the Shuiyun Sect, and I guessed that we had already received the Shuiyun Sect's approval."

"Shuiyun Sect"

Chen Dengming nodded slightly.

This was largely the same intelligence he had gathered from the nearby Marketplace he had sent as a cover.

Knowing that the Shuiyun Sect behind this small island nation had a good reputation and enjoyed making friends, he chose this place to house his disciples, in order to avoid conflict with the immortal sects in the sea.

This is the best possible plan we can currently devise.

To abide by the Four Seas Common Pact, they currently find it difficult to settle in places with Spirit Vein.

After all, as long as there is Spirit Vein, there will be Immortal Sect or Cultivation Family occupying it.

Even the smallest Foundation Establishment Cultivation Family cannot establish a presence near another Lineage unless the other party agrees.

Ordinary forces would never dare to invite such a large 'outsider force' to be stationed near their own territory; at least for now, they haven't encountered such an enlightened force.

Now that his temporary lodgings were settled, Chen Dengming breathed a sigh of relief and prepared to proceed with the next part of his solo journey.

The most urgent task for the Longevity Sect is to find the more than thirty blessed lands recorded on the map of the First Ancestor, select one that is unoccupied and has suitable resources, and then migrate there to establish a new sect.

In this way, it wouldn't be considered as seizing the resources of the Eastern Immortal Sea Sect. A new sect has been established, and the disciples will be able to cultivate in peace in the future. Chen Baimao can also cultivate to the Nascent Soul in peace.

But now it seems that the search for this blessed land cannot be undertaken with thousands of people traveling all over the world in a grand manner.

People have different opinions and different emotions.

Along this journey, many disciples have felt quite suppressed.

If this constant travel continues, and if further clashes occur with certain sects that deliberately ostracize him, Chen Dengming suspects that a major bloodshed may well ensue.

In fact, this is also the advantage of the Cultivation World where strength is paramount. He, along with Martial Aunt Su, Gongshu Zai, and others, possessed power that surpassed that of others. In addition, they had accumulated prestige over a long period of time and had many followers.

Otherwise, if he were to lead a group of disciples from major sects who could have enjoyed the Spirit Vein of their sects to wander overseas, living a life of exclusion worse than that of independent Rogue Cultivator, he would have been rebelled against long ago.

After all, these disciples still have no idea what exactly happened in the Four Regions.

Nowadays, some people are starting to complain, preferring to fight Devil Cultivator to the death rather than wander overseas and leave their homes.

"I'd rather fight Devil Cultivator to the death than leave my homeland. If it's just about fighting Devil Cultivator, why leave my homeland at all?"

Chen Dengming listened to the faint sounds of complaints coming from the other end and sighed inwardly.

He waved to the Black Cloud Leopard not far away.

Then, leading the haphazardly waddling Black Cloud Leopard with a grilled fish head in its mouth, they headed towards the spirit boat to bid farewell to their senior sister and Martial Aunt Su.

The search for this blessed land had to be handled personally by him, the Dao Child, who embarked on a solitary journey.

No one else could do it.

After all, the blessed lands recorded were all excellent treasures that several ancestors had searched for over thousands of years while traveling the world, and they were extremely rare and confidential resources.

The blessed lands that have already been discovered and occupied are not worth mentioning, as they have lost their value.

However, the undiscovered blessed lands are all priceless. If some immortal sects knew about them, they would definitely go to occupy and compete for them, and no one would complain that their sect doesn't have enough resources.

Therefore, the First Ancestor only handed over this map recording the resources of the blessed land to him.

With Martial Aunt Su overseeing and protecting many disciples, only he could personally go and search for them.

Replacing Gongshu Zai or instructing a group of trusted disciples to search is absolutely unreliable.

If the information were to leak out, the Longevity Sect's grand plan for future development after migrating and settling down would face a huge risk of being aborted.
