Cultivating for a hundred lifetimes to ascension-Chapter 1591 - 857: Cursing and Infiltrating the Taihang Sect (Part 2)

Chapter 1591: Chapter 857: Cursing and Infiltrating the Taihang Sect (Part 2)

"Reporting to the Immortal. We are all disciples of the Heavenly Demon Sect. The headquarters of the Heavenly Demon Sect is located at the Ten Evil Peaks in the Southern Domain of the Upper Radiance Continent..."

"In this realm, there are six Great Continents, namely Beiliang Divine Continent, Lower Radiance Continent, Lower Radiance Continent, East Lu Continent, West Plate Continent, and Qixia Continent..."

"...Our sect has two Supreme Sect Leaders, both of whose power is above Returning to Void... Our ancestors left behind a Heavenly Demon Cave Heaven, which has been passed down for 180,000 years..."

"Innate Divine Continent? Reporting to the Immortal, I’ve never heard of the Innate Divine Continent, only aware that there are six Great Continents in this realm, which are..."

"Perhaps the Innate Divine Continent is known by another name. The history of this realm is too ancient. Countless years ago, the six Great Continents might have had different names, and perhaps one of the Continents was once called the Innate Divine Continent."

"Reporting to the Immortal. The oldest sect in the Upper Radiance Continent is the Taihang Sect, one of the ’One Sect and Three Sects’. This sect’s mountain gate is located in Outer Lixu Heaven. However, the Lower Realm Mountain Gate of this sect is in the Eastern Domain of the Upper Radiance Continent..."

"The Taiching Spirit Realm has long been known as ’One Sect and Three Sects and Nine Mountains and Seas’. The One Sect refers to the Supreme Sect, a sect founded countless years ago... The Three Sects are the Ancient Miao Sect, the Treasure Plate Sect, and the Taiqing Sect... The Nine Mountains and Seas each possess several or dozens of Spirit Domains, with many disciples of the great sects spread across the Six Continents and Seven Seas..."

"...I would never dare deceive the Immortal. I truly do not know nor have I heard of the term Innate Divine Continent..."

Four hours later, Zhao Sheng withdrew his Divine Thought expressionlessly, feeling somewhat frustrated.

He and the Zhao Family’s many high-ranking members had considered the issue of time before but hadn’t expected the span of time to be so vast.

Now it seems that the Golden Crane Great Saint may have attained enlightenment countless years ago, and the "Innate Divine Continent" he spoke of most likely has changed its name or may simply no longer exist.

Time is the strongest force in the world; it can change everything.

Millions of years have passed, and everything has changed; nothing is more transformative.

Later, Zhao Sheng quickly changed his mind, deciding not to kill Tong Xin and others for the time being.

But while spared from death, punishment is inevitable!

Zhao Sheng scrutinized Tong Xin and the others, and his cold gaze made them tremble and pale.

Suddenly, Zhao Sheng’s brow released a radiant Divine Light, which covered Tong Xin and the others like clear water.

The next moment, countless ancient symbols emerged from the Divine Light, converging into colorful streams.

The colorful streams flowed above the heads of Tong Xin and others, sinking in through their heads’ crown...

Ah, ah, ah!

The next instant, Tong Xin and the others suddenly let out miserable screams, writhing in pain, their features extremely contorted as they wailed and screamed.

In just a few breaths, they all began bleeding from their seven orifices, their bodies battered and bloodied, their originally vigorous aura rapidly declining.

Seeing them on the verge of death, pained enough to want to commit suicide, Zhao Sheng finally stopped chanting.

"You few have already been afflicted by my Five Passes Heavenly Demon Curse. If you do not wish to experience the agony of being worse than dead, you must follow my orders. Do you understand?"

Tong Xin, as if granted amnesty, immediately prostrated at Zhao Sheng’s feet, speaking with utmost reverence: "Immortal, your power is boundless, I am willing to be a slave, hoping the Immortal will withdraw the Divine Skills."

"Old servant Gongsun Kong, pays respect to the master."

"Old servant Xue Qie, pays respect to the Immortal sir."

"Old servant..."

...

Months later, deep in the Ten Evil Peaks of the Southern Domain of the Upper Radiance Continent.

This is the Desolate Forbidden Land where mortals are entirely absent, enveloped year-round in Cloud Mist, with Miasma smoke present everywhere.

In the depths of lush ancient forests where poisonous creatures and Exotic Beasts are abundant, countless strange and powerful life forms each claim a mountain, proudly roaring through the wilderness.

Yet at the deepest part of this Desolate Forbidden Land lies a picturesque Blessed Land, with incredibly rich Spiritual Energy.

This "Blessed Land" spans nearly a thousand miles, with seventy-eight Spiritual Mountain Treasure Lands, producing countless precious resources like Spiritual Medicine and spirit beasts annually.

This Blessed Land is precisely the Lower Realm Mountain Gate of the Heavenly Demon Sect, shrouded year-round by high-level Illusion Arrays; hence from the outside, it appears as barren hills, making it unimaginable that beneath the Illusion Realm lies such an exceedingly rare natural Blessed Land.

Zhao Sheng has been in this Blessed Land for several months.

During this time, he secretly scoured the Scripture Cave of the Heavenly Demon Sect, examining heaps of Jade Scroll Bone Scrolls.

Yet despite this, he still couldn’t find a word regarding the "Innate Divine Continent."

It is known that the Heavenly Demon Sect has established its sect for 130,000 years, ranking among the most ancient sects in the Upper Radiance Continent.

Such a profoundly rooted ancient sect couldn’t find any information about the "Innate Divine Continent."

This situation is definitely abnormal!

Perhaps some True Immortal-level beings personally erased all information about the "Innate Divine Continent."

Or perhaps time has eroded all past memories.

Either possibility signals enormous trouble.

In an instant, Zhao Sheng’s heart turned cold, faintly sensing a foreboding premonition.

Inside a cave mansion at the foot of a Spiritual Mountain, Zhao Sheng sat cross-legged on a Jade Mat while Tong Xin knelt before him, respectfully saying: "Immortal, I have already placed the item into the Heavenly Demon Cave Heaven as you instructed."

"Well done," Zhao Sheng first praised him, then took out a Sumeru Ring from his sleeve, tossing it into Tong Xin’s arms.

"You go wait for Old Zhao to log in at Wuchang City. Then personally give him this ring."

"I obey!" Tong Xin nodded obediently and accepted the command.

Old Zhao is Zhao Jinhua’s code name. The Sumeru Ring holds a vast collection of Cultivation Technique Books, which Zhao Sheng had slowly gathered after scouring the Scripture Cave.

"Leave now!" Zhao Sheng casually ordered Tong Xin to withdraw.

Tong Xin dared not hesitate, although his body remained motionless, he flew flatly backward, directly out the door.

Seeing the person leave, Zhao Sheng’s figure flickered and vanished into thin air.

...

Over twenty days passed in a flash.

In Carefree City, thousands of miles away in the Eastern Domain, a weary, handsome young man arrived.

This person is Zhao Sheng after changing his appearance.

Carefree City is well-known in the Eastern Domain. Not only is it one of the ten ancient cities under the Taihang Sect’s control, but it’s also where the Taihang Sect recruits disciples.

Every hundred years, the Taihang Sect holds an Outer Disciple selection tournament in ten ancient cities.

The requirements for selection are simple; as long as you’re under a hundred, any cultivator can qualify for selection.

While obtaining the qualification is easy, securing a spot is immensely difficult.

On the day the selection tournament is held, countless young cultivators flock in, striving for just 200 spots.

With the selection tournament months away, the atmosphere in Carefree City is already vibrant.

Recently, almost every day, dozens to hundreds of young cultivators arrive at Carefree City, eager to make a name for themselves.

After entering the city, Zhao Sheng quickly found a Third-rank Spiritual Mansion to settle in, then began waiting for the selection tournament to start.

The Taiching Spirit Realm has long been known as ’One Sect and Three Sects and Nine Mountains and Seas’.

The Taihang Sect, dignified among the Three Sects, has wielded influence over the Taiching Spirit Realm for countless years, yet few know the location of the Taihang Sect’s mountain gate.

According to many Ancient Scrolls in the Scripture Cave of the Heavenly Demon Sect, the Taihang Sect’s mountain gate is a True Immortal Cave Heaven, with its vast internal space capable of housing three Upper Radiance Continents.

Due to this True Immortal Cave Heaven, the Taihang Sect hardly relies on external needs; most disciples spend their entire lives without taking a single step outside the mountain gate.

Zhao Sheng is well aware that Cave Heavens usually do not exist in the current world, mostly hiding themselves in extremely secret areas within the Divine Palace Heaven.

True Immortal level Cave Heavens are even more hidden and mysterious; except for blending in with Outer Disciples, there’s almost no way to enter.

Zhao Sheng, relying on his ’Infinite Universe Gate’ talent, dared to execute the plan of ’Deceiving the Heaven.’

Simply because even if accidentally trapped in a True Immortal Cave Heaven, he could rely on the Burial Immortal Ruins to escape.

Several months passed swiftly, and the Outer Disciple selection tournament took place as scheduled.

In half a month, Zhao Sheng cleared hurdles and defeated tens of thousands of opponents, successfully seizing a spot.

A month later, Special Envoys sent by the Taihang Sect brought their selected "Reserve Disciples," gathering at Liezi Hall, towering over Cloud Sky.

The exterior of Liezi Hall appeared ancient and decrepit, yet it was a Primordial Yang Level Spiritual Treasure.

This treasure possessed Space-Time Teleportation capability, ideally suited for "transporting" people.
