Starting With 100 Million Lives
Chapter 184: Here Lies a Tremendous Opportunity
Sword cultivators are inherently proud.
Even the Celestial Book Domain, boasting 14 Book Saints, couldn't exchange a word with them despite ranking high in the Lower Realm Ten Thousand Realms.
Yet now, Jiang Cheng had received an invitation directly from the Sword Domain's leaders.
This treatment was indeed unique.
However, Brother Cheng refused without a second thought.
"Thanks for the Old Sword Saint's kindness, but the situation in the Void Immortal Realm is unclear; I'd like to explore on my own."
Not clinging to such a significant support, many couldn't understand.
But Brother Cheng had his plans.
He had to summon a disciple every day from the Xuanji Map to enhance their talent, and such matters were best kept away from outsiders.
Gui Cang Sword Saint didn't insist either.
"Then, until we meet again, may we reunite in the Immortal Realm in the future!"
With that, he led 300 people from the Sword Domain and quickly departed.
After they left, the other domains also set off in various directions.
No one, not even Lan Ti, was familiar with the Void Immortal Realm, and no one knew the path to the Immortal Realm.
This was the greatest challenge facing everyone.
For now, it was all about relying on intuition and chance.
Jiang Cheng didn't think too much and busied himself with accounting the spoils.
The results were a bit disappointing; there were no Spirit Stones or pills, though there were some Heavenly and Earthly Treasures.
Aside from that, most resources were used for Profound Spirit Domain's cultivation of beast souls, which were useless to him.
Luckily, the system could exchange them, and what was useless could be converted into points.
After all, being Saint Tier experts, the collections were the top-tier treasures of a domain.
After a round of exchanges, there were 1.2 billion points added to his account.
Once Jiang Cheng finished his tasks, Mo Chen suddenly revealed shocking news.
"I've been here before."
What?
Upon hearing these words, everyone was utterly shocked.
Three-Eyed Tiger couldn't believe it at all.
"Old Mo, don't brag. You used to be sealed in the Blood Transformation Blade. How could you have been to the Void Immortal Realm?"
"What would you, a Tiger Demon, know?"
Mo Chen gave it a disdainful glance before shifting to another expression.
"Does the Sect Leader remember the Immortal Demon War I mentioned?"
Jiang Cheng recalled when he subdued this old man, he did mention that when talking about his origins.
Though at the time, Jiang Cheng wasn't interested and didn't inquire further.
"Immortal cultivation and demonic cultivation were originally two different paths, but in the end, they became irreconcilable."
"This place was the battlefield back then."
"Such a coincidence?"
Out of everyone, Lan Ti was the most reluctant to accept this.
"How could the Void Immortal Realm be a battlefield?"
"Then why did our nine Immortal Ancestors descend from here back then?"
"Wasn't your war in the Immortal Realm?"
Mo Chen calmly said, "Our battlefield back then was indeed in the Immortal Realm, at the very chaotic center of the Immortal Realm."
The Profound Turtle King curiously asked, "What is the Chaotic Ruins?"
"A blank area with chaotic rules where even immortals cannot reside for long."
Jiang Cheng was surprised. "How could the most central area of the Immortal Realm fall to the Lower Realm?"
Mo Chen furrowed his eyebrows tightly, his eyes flickering with different expressions as if carefully pondering something.
After a long while, he sighed deeply.
"The only thing I can confirm is that the Void Immortal Realm was created by the top forces up there working together."
"They sank the Chaotic Ruins, placing it as a barrier between the Immortal and Lower Realms, disrupting the original Heaven and Earth Laws, blocking the ascension path of Lower Realm cultivators."
"Perhaps this was due to some changes after the Immortal Demon War."
Three-Eyed Tiger scratched its fur and casually asked, "So, do you know how to get up from the Void Immortal Realm?"
"I don't."
"Then what's the use of saying all this?"
Mo Chen was almost infuriated by the Tiger Demon and said angrily, "The Chaotic Ruins isn't an ascension passage. How could there be a way up?"
Jiang Cheng frowned, "So we're on a wild goose chase then?" The source of thɪs content is novel⸺fire.net
"Not necessarily."
Mo Chen shifted his tone: "Although it isn't an ascension passage, it doesn't rule out the chance of entering the Immortal Realm."
"Back then, the two armies of immortals and demons both built altars in the ruins. Finding those altars from that time might offer a turnaround."
Three-Eyed Tiger poured cold water again: "It's been tens of thousands of years; the altars in the ruins would have long disappeared."
Mo Chen couldn't help but roar, "If you don't understand, just shut up. The methods of the Immortal Emperor and Demon Emperor aren't something an ant like you can comprehend!"
Jiang Cheng waved his hand: "Do you know the location of the altars?"
"I need to first determine our current position and then calculate."
"Alright, take your time to calculate."
Having arrived in the Void Immortal Realm and fought a battle, Brother Cheng felt he really worked too hard and planned to take a nap on the turtle's back.
Mo Chen added, "In fact, for the entire Feixian Sect, this Void Immortal Realm is a great opportunity."
"Oh? What opportunity, Elder Mo, please tell us."
Three-Eyed Tiger immediately perked up, even switching back to addressing him as Elder Mo.
Mo Chen glanced at this fellow, suddenly regretting letting it listen in.
But performing well in front of the Sect Leader was more important.
"During the Immortal Demon War, countless immortals and demons died in the ruins, and their Blood Evil Qi still lingers here."
"If someone can withstand the cleansing of this Blood Evil Qi, there's a great chance to achieve a Demon Body without a Thunder Tribulation."
The Demon Body and Immortal Body are on par; achieving a Demon Body is equivalent to becoming half an immortal.
"In fact, ancient battlegrounds like this were often the favorite cultivation grounds for ancient demon cultivators."
"And no battlefield from back then could match the scale of this one. The Demon Body refined here would have exceptionally high quality."
Jiang Cheng and Three-Eyed Tiger, on the turtle's back, exchanged looks.
Damn, are you a demon cultivator?
Otherwise, why would you know this?
"What's the difference between a Demon Body and an Immortal Body?"
Jiang Cheng didn't have any particular preference for becoming an immortal cultivator or a demon cultivator.
It was just a difference in cultivation paths.
Looking at Mo Chen, this demon cultivator seemed more normal than many people from the Sacred Land.
"Immortal cultivation emphasizes the Divine Soul, while demon cultivation focuses on refining the physique. Achieving an Immortal Body makes one more outstanding in soul cultivation, whereas achieving a Demon Body provides an advantage in close combat."
"Then what are we waiting for? Hurry up!"
Three-Eyed Tiger exclaimed and flew out of the Bone Refining Banner's range.
From Sacred Body to Demon Body would be a tremendous leap.
Look at Jiang Cheng's recent battle with those three Saint Tier experts; his complete dominance in the final martial techniques was mainly because the Immortal Body surpassed the Sacred Body.
Thinking it had this opportunity too, Three-Eyed Tiger was so excited it howled.
However, that quickly turned into a wail of misery.
As a Saint Tier, Three-Eyed Tiger's Holy Sanctuary could keep out the Chaos Rule and Blood Evil Power.
But now, to accept the cleansing and refinement of the Blood Evil Qi, it had to retract its Holy Sanctuary and face the most brutal environment of the Void Immortal Realm head-on.
In the Void Immortal Realm, entering the Daoist Palace led to instant death.
Ascending to Saint level could hold off for a while, but now, having completely given up resistance, one could imagine the suffering.
Seeing it rolling on the ground, bleeding continuously, and its once white fur completely stained red, Brother Cheng was pained at the sight.
The originally eager Profound Turtle King immediately gave up.
