Seeking Immortality in a Bizarre World-Chapter 636 - 631 Otherworld Visitor, Shenxiao Sect Annihilation_1

Chapter 636: Chapter 631 Otherworld Visitor, Shenxiao Sect Annihilation_1

"Is this the Mysterious Realm?"

"After ten years of drifting through the void, I have finally arrived at my destination!"

The void tore open, and a figure emerged; the battered Flying Boat that had carried him was nowhere in sight.

The newcomer surveyed his surroundings, a radiant smile gracing his features.

Under normal circumstances, he would have reached the Mysterious Realm a month ago.

Unfortunately, the Flying Boat hadn’t been sturdy enough and disintegrated en route, forcing him to linger in the Void for some extra time.

Thankfully, no major problems had arisen. As long as he could enter the Mysterious Realm, it was all bearable.

"After countless years, this realm still has its charm."

"It seems it can become a new abode for me."

Tulushan felt the long-missed nature’s spiritual energy and smiled.

He rose on the wind, transforming into a gust as he traveled.

It was too soon to draw conclusions. He still needed to thoroughly investigate this realm’s situation before deciding whether to notify the alliance.

Hurrying along with his Escape Light, he moved at an astonishing speed.

From afar, he sensed the pervasive aura of Bizarre Demons.

"As expected, wherever one goes, one cannot avoid encountering disgusting Bizarre Demons; they are truly relentless!"

"Since this world cannot seal the Bizarre Demons, its actual strength is negligible."

Tulushan flew across various regions, occasionally spotting Bizarre Demons entering cultivator territories and rampaging everywhere.

Bizarre Demons besieged cultivator sects, causing innumerable deaths and injuries.

Tulushan watched quietly, like a bystander, completely unmoved.

This was only because he had witnessed far more tragic scenarios in other Cultivation Worlds and had seen powerful Bizarre Demons capable of destroying the heavens and the earth.

Compared to them, the Mysterious Realm was insignificant.

He continued to traverse the Mysterious Realm, crossing over numerous territories.

"The power of the Mysterious Realm is weaker than I imagined, not worth worrying about."

"Eh, the Lingbao Sect still exists?!"

"And the legendary Phoenix?! Indeed interesting!"

Half a month later, Tulushan arrived near the Lingbao Sect. He gazed at thirteen Complete Cryptids attacking the Breath of Stars Barrier, a peculiar glint in his eyes.

He came quickly and left even faster.

Nevertheless, the thirteen Complete Cryptids sensed the fleeting aura.

Tulushan swiftly fled, took out a huge silver compass, and quietly activated it.

The item emanated a unique aura; although it was a Sky-reaching Spirit Treasure, it contained the aura of a Mysterious Heavenly Spiritual Treasure.

Spiritual Power merged within it, forming special patterns that activated the concealed Mysterious Heavenly Spiritual Treasure aura.

The aura of the Mysterious Heavenly Spiritual Treasure transformed into an eye-like shape, seemingly touched by some mysterious force and coming to life.

The eye was blue, unlike that of a living being.

"There’s a Young Phoenix in this realm! It seems there are also three Divine Beasts that have not yet reached adulthood, all within the Lingbao Sect."

"Not long ago, a mature Golden-Winged Peng Bird appeared in the Mysterious Realm, but it was repelled by the Grand Elder of Lingbao Sect."

Tulushan relayed the most valuable information he had gathered.

After a short while, a cool voice came from within, "Good!"

The next moment, the eye disintegrated, and the aura of the Mysterious Heavenly Spiritual Treasure vanished.

"I can finally relax; no need to rush to the next world."

Tulushan put away the Fixed Star Compass, now having the leisure to look around at what would be his new home.

「...」

The thirteen Complete Form Bizarre Persons had failed to breach the Lingbao Sect despite a prolonged siege. They realized the sect possessed new methods, making it a difficult target.

"Eh, Mahayana Stage Cultivators?!"

"Their auras are unfamiliar, not those of known sect disciples. They aren’t newly ascended either. Most likely visitors from another domain."

The Hidden Cultivation Sect and Sinful Denizens knew that the Mysterious Realm was not the only Cultivation World. There were countless similar worlds in the vast universe.

The distance between each world was immense, with the Void separating them. Except for Mahayana Stage Cultivators, few could travel through the Void to other Cultivation Worlds.

Throughout history, the Mysterious Realm had received a few visitors from other worlds.

Mahayana Stage Cultivators from the Mysterious Realm who wished to enter the Void faced many challenges.

Firstly, the Mysterious Realm lacked the necessary means, making it exceedingly easy to get lost in the Void. The earliest Mahayana Stage Cultivators who ventured out never returned.

Secondly, most top sects had only one Mahayana Stage Cultivator; sects with two were rare.

Mahayana Stage Cultivators were the Sea-Calming Divine Needles of their top sects. A short departure from the Mysterious Realm might be acceptable, but a prolonged disappearance, becoming lost in the Void...

If they returned safely after a hundred years, their sect might already be... destroyed!

Such risks were unbearable for them.

For tens of thousands of years, few had ventured deep into the Void to explore, and the general attitude in the Mysterious Realm tended towards conservatism.

The thirteen Bizarre Persons halted their attack on the Lingbao Sect, their faces ominously dark.

A Mahayana Stage Cultivator from another world passing by was one thing, but if they were to ally with the Mysterious Realm, it would spell big trouble.

If cultivators gained reinforcements, annihilating them and humanity would become significantly harder.

The Saint Race had endured for countless years. Their suffering was about to end, and the Mysterious Realm would soon be theirs. They absolutely could not tolerate any unforeseen changes.

"Change of plans! Eliminate the other sects first, ensuring more of our kin obtain Complete Bizarre Bodies!"

"Deal with the tough nut last!"

"The Phoenix still needs time to reach maturity; Lingbao Sect will definitely not last until that day!"

The thirteen Complete Form Bizarre Persons retreated, switching their target to the Shenxiao Sect.

Jia Ren was still using the Phoenix Flame to cleanse the polluted Demon Origin Bizarre Qi when he soon received a message from Tian Lingzi:

"The thirteen Complete Form Bizarre Persons have been confirmed to have left. We’ve just received word from Chi Xiao Zhenjun that they are currently attacking Shenxiao Sect and are requesting aid from Lingbao Sect.

"Xuantiandao Sect, Shimo Sect, Samsara Valley, and other sects like Beyond the Heavens hope Lingbao Sect will consider the broader situation and deploy the Breath of Stars Barrier for their sects. Each is willing to offer twenty Sky-reaching Artifact Refining materials."

The Lingbao Sect had been under siege by thirteen Complete Form Bizarre Persons for over three months, yet the sect’s Formation remained unbreached.

The Bizarre Demons, having failed in their prolonged siege, ultimately turned their attention to the Shenxiao Sect. Barring any surprises, the obliteration of Shenxiao Sect was a foregone conclusion.

The Breath of Stars Barrier had become a coveted treasure for many top sects, the best defense against Bizarre Demons.

None of the top sects in the Mysterious Realm wished for their destruction and thus contacted Tian Lingzi, hoping Lingbao Sect would set up Formations for them.

"Are they dreaming?!"

"Shenxiao Sect still has the audacity to ask us for help?!"

"Lingbao Sect has faced danger several times without them ever showing up; let’s wait for their sect to be destroyed before we talk."

Although Lingbao Sect was on good terms with Shenxiao Sect, Shenxiao Sect had never shown up during the several times Lingbao Sect was in danger. This proved time and again that their friendship was only superficial.

It was understandable for Shenxiao Sect to seek good fortune and avoid disaster.

Therefore, it was only natural for Lingbao Sect to respond in kind.

"Shimo Sect, Xuantiandao Sect, and Beyond the Heavens... I wonder who gave them the nerve to think Lingbao Sect would help them?!"

All three sects had waged wars against Lingbao Sect. The skirmishes with Shimo Sect were minor, but Xuantiandao Sect and Beyond the Heavens had nearly annihilated Lingbao Sect.

Deep hatred and enmity existed between them. It was one thing not to add insult to injury, but helping them was out of the question.

"Qingxuan Zhenjun from Xuantiandao Sect has come to pay respects."

"Taishi Mojun from Shimo Sect has come to pay respects."

"The Lord of Taoist Evil Demons from Beyond the Heavens has come to pay respects."

"Yinxijiemojun from Samsara Valley has come to pay respects."

"The current Medicine King from Medicine King Valley has come to pay respects."

"..."

Renowned figures of the Mysterious Realm appeared one after another at the entrance of Lingbao Sect, each presenting their visiting cards.

Tian Lingzi’s categorical refusal did not mean they would give up.

With numerous sects in the Mysterious Realm having been annihilated, the fate of the Taiqing Sect served as a stark warning; no top sect wanted to follow in its footsteps.

Lingbao Sect was their only hope for a breakthrough.

It was understandable for the top powerhouses of the Mysterious Realm to gather at Lingbao Sect.

"See no one!" Jia Ren’s voice echoed from within Lingbao Sect.

"Elder Jia, the Bizarre Demons are the common enemy of all cultivators! Once other sects are destroyed, how can Lingbao Sect alone withstand the unending onslaught of Bizarre Demons?!"

"We cannot do something that brings pain to our friends and joy to our enemies!"

"If Lingbao Sect saves Medicine King Valley, Medicine King Valley will definitively follow your lead. Every hundred years, we will offer one Yuanhe Spirit Pill, ten Returning Void Pills, and a hundred Five Elements Spirit Pills..."

Some offered empty promises, others produced more treasures, and there were even those who wished to submit their entire sect to Lingbao Sect.

In the interest of survival, each sect exerted their Divine Skills and put forth all their efforts.

Common sects aside, the offer of allegiance from Medicine King Valley was compelling.

Medicine King Valley was the sect in the Mysterious Realm that excelled the most at concocting Elixirs and possessed a vast number of Spiritual Medicines and Elixirs. If Lingbao Sect could gain the support of Medicine King Valley, the sect’s strength would surely surge like tides. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

However, Tian Lingzi and Jia Ren exchanged glances, each sighing inwardly.

The Nine Heavens Star Luo Formation that Lingbao Sect intended to construct for them was not guaranteed to withstand thirteen Complete Cryptids.

The power of the Nine Heavens Star Luo Formation depended on the core treasure of the Formation.

The best treasure was still the Immortal Treasure, the Star Seal, and even a replica of the Star Seal could not hold up.

Lingbao Sect possessed the Xuantian Exquisite Pagoda, which could transform Star Force, and only by coordinating with tens of thousands of Spiritual Treasures could they hold their ground.

In the entire Mysterious Realm, no other sect could accomplish this.

Refine an Immortal Treasure Star Seal?

Unless an Immortal descended, no one could achieve it.

"Medicine King, let’s talk in detail!"

All other sect powerhouses were turned away at the door; only the Medicine King was invited into Lingbao Sect.

The gathered Mahayana Stage Cultivators and Nascent Soul period cultivators wore ugly expressions. If they weren’t seeking Lingbao Sect’s help, they would have left in disdain rather than humble themselves so.

Not long after, the Medicine King left Lingbao Sect, and a piece of news shook powers in all directions.

"Medicine King Valley announces its official incorporation into Lingbao Sect!"

"Beyond the Five Peaks of Lingbao, a new peak shall be established, named Medicine King Peak!"

Has Medicine King Valley gone mad?

To abandon the sect’s foundation, built over ten thousand years, and join Lingbao Sect—this makes them sinners of their own sect!

The actions of Medicine King Valley sent shockwaves everywhere, but no one could say a word against it.

After all, with the arrival of the Complete Cryptids, Medicine King Valley would be completely obliterated; any talk of preserving their legacy would be empty talk.

Joining Lingbao Sect meant losing their sect, but it allowed them to preserve their legacy. In the future, there might even be a chance to re-establish Medicine King Valley.

More importantly... it meant preserving their lives!

Most of the Mahayana Stage Cultivators from other sects turned and left without a second thought.

After all, even if they wanted to join Lingbao Sect... Lingbao Sect might not dare to accept them.

Moreover, the sects with Mahayana Stage Cultivators still had one last resort:

They could lead their sect’s geniuses deep into the Void, in search of a possible path to survival.

As they left Lingbao Sect, news spread throughout the Mysterious Realm.

Shenxiao Sect was demolished!

All its disciples perished at the hands of the Bizarre Demons; only Chi Xiao Zhenjun managed to escape into the Void unscathed.
