Immortal King's Mansion! A Collective Plan to Ambush! Cultivating Flowers Over the Years
"The so-called heavenly blessings are beyond the capacity of ordinary people to bear. Even those of us who have received the Immortal Celestial Lineage still find it difficult to fully control our own fortune. To cleverly take advantage of the heavenly blessings is tantamount to seizing the heavenly fortune."
Therefore, even if the Outer Realm Devil Venerable obtained the Heavenly Fortune Dao Artifact by fortuitous opportunity and absorbed some Immortal Celestial Dao Power, it does not mean that he can take over the Heavenly Fortune Hall.
Otherwise, if I had used the Three Palaces to fight him in the past, he could have already taken over the Palace of Fortune."
While Chen Dengming was still reeling from the Demon Lord's extraordinary encounter, the words from the First Ancestor dispelled many of his doubts.
Su Yan Yan, surrounded by Immortal Spiritual Energy on the opposite side, was also listening to the information that the First Ancestor was telling in detail at this moment.
"Besides the Outer Realm Devil Venerable, who is the greatest threat, you must also be wary of other powerful figures among the Outer Domain Evil Cultivator."
Among them, those at the Spirit Transformation Nascent Soul the Three Saints Palace and the Three Saints Dao Lord, were expelled and had no choice but to enter the Shattered Heavenly Immortal Realm in order to protect themselves.
"I had a plan for these people: to massacre them all in the Shattered Heavenly Immortal Realm, preventing them from joining forces with the Outer Realm Devil Venerable and other outsiders!"
Chen Dengming was startled.
So ruthless?
They actually planned to massacre all the expelled Spirit Transformation and Nascent Soul Transformation cultivators.
Although he had long suspected it, he knew that the First Ancestor would most likely not let these expelled people off easily, and would probably settle accounts within the Shattered Heavenly Immortal Realm.
However, among these people, there were six Nascent Spirit Transmutation Dao Lord and more than ten Nascent Soul True Lords, including Mochao Crown Prince Nascent Soul Perfection cultivators such as the Demon Prince.
With such a powerful lineup, even with the advantage of terrain within the Shattered Heavenly Immortal Realm, annihilating them all would be no easy task.
He was filled with doubt. Although he believed that with the First Ancestor's nearly six thousand years of experience, he must have planned and arranged everything, he still sent a telepathic message to express his concerns.
"No need to worry. Although they outnumber us, they may even anticipate our actions and prepare a counterattack. Fellow Daoist Qu and I have already devised a foolproof plan."
The First Ancestor, confident and in control, declared, "Three months from now, before the Immortal Sect opens, I will join forces with the Qu Shenzong to create the illusion of the Immortal Sect opening, luring them all into the Immortal King's Mansion's Immortal King's Mansion within the Shattered Heavenly Immortal Realm, where we will suppress and kill them!"
Chen Dengming and Su Yan Yan were surprised, "The Immortal King's Mansion?"
"Indeed, the Immortal King's Mansion."
The First Ancestor spoke in a deep voice, "When a Celestial King underwent tribulation, before transforming into the Heavenly Dao, he did so within the Immortal King's Mansion."
Therefore, the Immortal King's Mansion is extremely ominous, having become a cursed place, containing calamity-inducing power. The mad Heavenly Dao Blood also flows from the Immortal King's Mansion. I and the Qu Shenzong will join forces to massacre them all within the Immortal King's Mansion."
Chen Dengming and Su Yan Yan were immediately alarmed, realizing the underlying meaning of the First Ancestor's words: perhaps they were going to gamble everything and fight a desperate battle together with the Qu Shenzong?
Seemingly sensing their doubts and worries, the First Ancestor continued, "Don't worry, there's no need to risk your life to deal with them."
They were originally Non-My Dao Cultivator, and after entering the Shattered Heavenly Immortal Realm, they were like phoenixes in distress, let alone trapped in the Immortal King's Mansion.
Only by dealing with them can we free up more energy to deal with the Outer Realm Devil Venerable.
Your task at that time will be to ambush them outside the Immortal King's Mansion to prevent them from escaping!
Chen Dengming and Su Yan Yan accepted the order in unison.
The two knew that although the First Ancestor spoke of it in a light and casual manner, if the actual plan were to be implemented, there would inevitably be a life-or-death battle.
No matter how much the Shattered Heavenly Immortal Realm and the Immortal King's Mansion suppressed the Spirit Transmutation Dao Lord, these Spirit Transformation and Nascent Soul were, after all, ancient monsters who had lived for thousands of years and unparalleled heroes.
Trying to annihilate them will inevitably lead to a terrifying, desperate counterattack.
Next, the First Ancestor Lu Xiucheng elaborated on some speculations about what might happen after the Outer Realm Devil Venerable led the Evil Cultivator into the Shattered Heavenly Immortal Realm.
By the end, Chen Dengming and Su Yan Yan fully understood the First Ancestor's strategy and their respective responsibilities.
According to the ancestor's divination based on the will of Heaven's Will, the Outer Realm Devil Venerable might use the protection of the Heavenly Fortune Dao Artifact in the form of Flesh and Blood Devil Fetus to enter the Shattered Heavenly Immortal Realm.
At that time, they will be able to exert some of their strength in the Shattered Heavenly Immortal Realm.
It should be noted that the Outer Realm Devil Venerable is Dao Integration Great Power.
Even if he can only unleash part of his strength, it might still be comparable to his peak period in the Four Domains.
This time, however, it's even more unusual.
Having learned from the previous failure, the Outer Realm Devil Venerable will surely have learned his lesson and may share the blessed items to cover other Dao Integration Great Power as they enter in avatars.
It remains to be seen how much power this protected entity can ultimately unleash; it largely depends on the degree to which the Shattered Heavenly Immortal Realm rejects it.
At that time, the enemies that the First Ancestor Lu Xiucheng and Qu Shenzong and others will need to deal with are these top experts from beyond the realm.
However, besides these powerful figures, the outer realms will definitely also send many Nascent Soul True Lords and Golden Core Cultivator into the Shattered Heavenly Immortal Realm.
Although the Shattered Heavenly Immortal Realm suppresses "Non-My Dao Cultivator".
However, when the Immortal Sect opens, simply possessing an item of good fortune is equivalent to gaining recognition, thus significantly reducing the impact of this suppression.
The suppression of the Strength Realm caused by the Shattered Heavenly Immortal Realm is most intense on cultivators at the Spirit Transformation and above, but has almost no effect on cultivators below the Spirit Transformation.
Therefore, once a large number of Nascent Soul Cultivator and Golden Core Cultivator enter the Shattered Heavenly Immortal Realm, they are more likely to pose a threat than Spirit Transmutation Dao Lord, plunder more resources, and even help the Outer Realm Devil Venerable seize the Three Palaces of Fortune, Longevity, and Life.
The main task of Chen Dengming, Su Yan Yan, and the other Nascent Soul who entered the Shattered Heavenly Immortal Realm was to kill all the Nascent Soul and Golden Core cultivators from outside the realm who had infiltrated.
"This is yet another instance of external forces plundering Inner Domain."
However, the last plundering actually broke out from within the Inner Domain.
The Outer Realm Devil Venerable may want to first conquer the four realms, devour more Dao lineages and Dao power to strengthen his power, and ideally seize the two palaces of lifespan.
In this way, when the Immortal Sect opens, one can calmly enter the Shattered Heavenly Immortal Realm, easily control the Three Palaces, devour the Immortal Celestial Lineage, and take control of the Shattered Heavenly Immortal Realm.
After communicating with the First Ancestor, Chen Dengming's eyes flashed. "The Outer Realm Devil Venerable has failed. His plan has fallen through. This opening of the Immortal Sect will be his last chance, and he will likely be even more ferocious."
What follows is bound to be a bloody battle. It seems that after this training is over, I'll have to shamelessly try to borrow some treasures from the sect leader of Gourd Sword Island."
He felt a sense of urgency, finally understanding why the First Ancestor was so eager for them to improve their strength.
Only with sufficient strength can they kill their enemies and protect themselves in the subsequent battle in the Shattered Heavenly Immortal Realm.
And these are the ones who lead from the front, and they are the only ones who can do it.
The other Nascent Soul True Lord were willing to join the charge into the Shattered Heavenly Immortal Realm were also 'Non-My Dao Cultivator'.
Even with the protection of people like Chen Dengming, their strength would still be affected to some extent.
Those who will shoulder the main responsibility are the inheritors of their Immortal Celestial Lineage.
Chen Dengming immediately seized the time to cultivate.
At the same time, use your free time to prepare your Law Treasure for future battles.
He took out six Law Treasure from his Storage Bag, arranged them in a row, and floated them in front of him.
The first Law Treasure is naturally the Soul-Reaping Bow Staff, a powerful long-range weapon.
This staff is the masterpiece of the Seven-eyed True Lord. He forged it using materials he collected from the Below the Yin Spring, including Ghostly Dust, Styx Bone Tree, and Ghostly True Crystal, combined with the refining method he stole from the mind of the Soul Devouring Old Devil.
Not only is the material superior to the one given to Zhu Xun, but the Law Treasure's level has also reached the top tier of the fourth order.
Combined with the current spirits within the staff, Starfall Old Ghost and Northern Spirit Mother, its power is almost comparable to that of an ordinary fifth-tier Spirit Transformation Law Treasure.
The second Law Treasure was a palm-sized, dark-looking stone with a pitted surface, which released dazzling purple lightning when it hovered and rotated in the air.
This is Divine Transformation Stone that has been reforged from the meteorite that fell from the Shattered Heavenly Immortal Realm. It is a high-grade fourth-tier Law Treasure. Not only is it versatile, but it is also more durable than before. Even if he uses it in his Human Immortal Physique state, he is not afraid of it breaking.
The third item was a Broken Flying Dagger [Qi Slaying Flying Dagger]. Chen Dengming had already experienced the sharpness and ferocity of this knife from the Northern Yin Holy Mother.
This knife was accompanied by two throwing knives, the God Slaying and the Soul Slaying Knife, which may have been hidden in the Gourd Twin Swords -Dao Slaying Gourd of the Gourd Sword Island.
The fourth Law Treasure is a brick-shaped earthen Earth Tablet, heavy as a mountain and possessing a gravitational magnetic field, which can be used for both offense and defense.
The fifth Law Treasure Five Dragon Overlord Hand.
The sixth Law Treasure White Bone Thousand Soul Chariot, and the seventh Law Treasure was the complete Giant Deer Mage Robe he wore.
Today, Chen Dengming's strength has surpassed that of more than forty years ago, and his Law Treasure have also been upgraded.
He made a hand seal and pointed, and a clay pot filled with Yin soil flew out from his Storage Bag.
The Shore Flower, shaped like dragon claws, are planted in the shady soil.
At this time, the flowers and leaves had not yet emerged, making the bare ground quite unsightly.
"Xingluo, come out and tend the flowers!"
Chen Dengming looked at the Soul-Reaping Bow Staff.
A gust of Yin Wind blew, and the ghostly figure of Starfall Old Ghost emerged from the bow and staff. Trembling with fear, he glanced around at his surroundings and vaguely sensed that there seemed to be something wrong with the space-time around him.
"This..." Starfall Old Ghost's face immediately fell, and he said with a pounding heart.
"This is bad, this is bad, something terrible has happened! I have a feeling that I've gone too far from the Underworld and my time is drawing ever closer. Sect Leader Chen, where is this place?"
Chen Dengming was taken aback, only then realizing that ghosts like the Starfall Old Ghost were also quite sensitive to their own Yin Longevity.
These ghosts, Below the Yin Spring, have long buried themselves in the Yin soil to prolong their Yin Longevity.
Being in Heavenly Timing environment at this time naturally evokes a sense of impending doom and deadly threat.
"Sect Leader Chen, this is not the right place, this is not the right place! Something terrible has happened! Xingluo dares not linger any longer. Please forgive me, Sect Leader Chen!"
Almost before Chen Dengming could respond, Starfall Old Ghost suddenly turned around and, as if fleeing a disaster, disappeared back into the Soul-Reaping Bow Staff.
Chen Dengming frowned slightly, but did not stop him.
This was also influenced by Starfall Old Ghost's strong will to survive, which caused him to flee instinctively.
If he were to force him to comply, the Starfall Old Ghost would have no choice but to submit to his will.
But now he realizes it's inappropriate and immediately gives up.
These Soul Body hide within Law Treasure such as the Soul-Reaping Bow Staff, much like Little Array Spirit hide inside Soul House.
The influence of the Heavenly Timing is reduced by tens of times, and most of the damage caused by the passage of time is absorbed by the Law Treasure.
Because the Heavenly Timing is mainly controlled by the First Ancestor and affects him, rather than affecting other Soul Body, it would consume more resources of the Heavenly Timing.
Chen Dengming immediately let the Shore Flower grow on their own, leaving only a portion of his Divine Observation, while simultaneously beginning to refine the Law Treasure around him with his own Law Power.
His Giant Deer Mage Robe billowed and rustled.
The wicked eyes of the giant deer flashed with a green light, emerging from its collar, revealing a figure covered in muscle tumors on its body.
As the deer moved slightly, its enormous antlers appeared menacingly on Chen Dengming's chest, resembling a siege engine.
The muscles in his back bulged out like Chen Dengming dough, forming a solid and indestructible shield that exuded an exceptionally powerful and malevolent aura.
"Buzzing--"
The Qi Slaying Flying Dagger spun rapidly, tempered by the Nascent Soul fire that Chen Dengming exhaled, radiating a dazzling light.
Time flies.
A day in heaven is equivalent to a year on earth.
The Shore Flower in front of Chen Dengming grew at an extremely fast pace in the flowing years.
Soon, more than fifty years have passed as if it were yesterday, and the Shore Flower have gradually sprouted eye-catching green leaves.
These green leaves are also known as shahua.
Legend has it that the Shore Flower is also called Manjusaka. This legend is because there were two demons who once guarded the Shore Flower, one named Manju and the other named Shaka.
They have been guarding the Shore Flower for thousands of years, but they have never met. This is because when the flower blooms, there are no leaves, and when there are leaves, there are no flowers. The flower and the leaf never meet, forever separated.
It takes fifty years for the Shore Flower to bloom with its eye-catching green leaves.
It took Chen Dengming fifty years to raise his proficiency in the Heavenly Immortal Art to over 19,000 points.
As for the 50,000 cubic meters of Immortal Spiritual Energy that was shared equally with Su Yan Yan, it had already been completely absorbed in the first few months.
Fifty thousand cubic Immortal Spiritual Energy sounds like a lot, but it's actually just a little over ten thousand strands of Immortal Spiritual Energy. After being absorbed, his proficiency in the <Heavenly Immortal Art> increased by more than ten thousand points.
For the next fifty years, he could only cultivate at a slow pace, increasing his proficiency in Daoist techniques by a little every two days.
To this day, he is still halfway to break through to the Nascent Soul Perfection.
The next forty years or so of cultivation time will inevitably make it very difficult to achieve a breakthrough by relying on absorbing Spiritual Qi.
"Fifty thousand cubic meters of Immortal Spiritual Energy were used to refine just over ten thousand strands of Immortal Spiritual Energy, meaning almost only one strand of Immortal Spiritual Energy was extracted from every five cubic meters. This Immortal Spiritual Energy is incredibly hard-won."
Chen Dengming silently examined the panel for a while, then opened his eyes from his cultivation state, inwardly sighing at the difficulty of cultivation.
Any upward cultivation at any level is a process of refinement and purification, step by step.
Even those who cultivate from the Nascent Soul Late Stage to the Nascent Soul Perfection are no exception.
When he was in the Nascent Soul Early Stage, he could absorb an Immortal Spiritual Energy and directly convert it into three wisps of his own Law Power.
However, at the Nascent Soul Late Stage realm, an Immortal Spiritual Energy can only be transformed into a wisp of one's own Law Power.
He used to be able to generate three strands of Law Power by circulating the Heavenly Immortal Art through one Greater Celestial Circuit, but now he can only generate one Law Power.
Therefore, while his Law Power is becoming increasingly formidable, it is also very difficult for him to further cultivate and improve it.
"Senior Sister should be close to it. Her Qi is perfectly balanced, and she should be nearing the peak of the Nascent Soul Perfection stage. The next forty years should be enough for her."
Chen Dengming looked at Su Yan Yan opposite him, and breathed a sigh of relief, feeling happy for his senior sister.
Compared to him, Su Yan Yan's accumulated experience was clearly sufficient.
More than forty years ago, the other party offered to share some of their Immortal Spiritual Energy with him, but he refused.
The First Ancestor clearly placed high hopes on both of them, rather than solely on him.
He knew that Su Shijie treated him well, but he couldn't take away her resources because of that, as it would also easily disrupt the First Ancestor's plans.
Chen Dengming composed himself and his gaze fell on the Shore Flower in front of him, which had already sprouted green leaves and were exuding a faint fragrance.
With a flash of his eyes, he raised his hand and summoned the earthenware pot in which the flower was planted, which flew over and floated in his palm.
For the next forty years, cultivation must not be neglected; accumulating more Law Power would be beneficial.
But since he couldn't break through, he decided to try to comprehend the fifth principle of the Human Immortal Orthodox Lineage by relying on the Shore Flower.
If he could comprehend the Fifth Dao, or control some of the power of the Shore Flower, then even a Spirit Transmutation Dao Lord might not be able to do anything to him in that Shattered Immortal Realm.
At the same time.
Heavenly Longevity Hall, it appears as if fifty years have passed.
Fifty days have passed in the outside world, though.
On this day, thunder shook the heavens and the wind howled simultaneously throughout the four regions.
In the clouds over various places, the shadows of celestial pavilions and towers seem to appear and disappear, like palaces and pavilions of all kinds carved from white marble.
Streams of dazzling rays of light formed the shape of a magnificent gate, gradually emerging amidst the colorful glow, its imposing presence projecting its image across the four directions.
This mirage-like image immediately shook the surrounding regions.
The many Evil Cultivators, especially those exiled in the Western Regions, were all shaken and flew into the sky, their expressions filled with astonishment and doubt.
The Immortal Sect to the Shattered Heavenly Immortal Realm have opened?
As the map change approaches, I'm experiencing writer's block and writing will be slow. I'm also laying the groundwork to avoid confusion in later plot developments, hence the slower updates. Please forgive me. However, consistent updates will continue.
