From the waste of spiritual roots to the practice of asking the devil.

Aside from the anomaly, Buddha Light Immortal, nine out of the eleven true immortals of the human race arrived. Zhulong and Qingdi were still participating in the event as clones, facing such a major event as the collapse of the heavens.

Even veteran powerhouses like the Demon Lord and Lingbao couldn't sit still any longer.

I originally intended to let things take their natural course and adapt to the changing circumstances.

In any case, the human race has produced a person destined for this calamity, so their destiny should not be diminished, and they may even prosper in the next era.

But the Great Dao collapsed.

With the path to immortality severed and some fundamental laws collapsing, it is almost impossible to perceive or comprehend them anymore. The next thousand years will be the last chance for all cultivators to attain immortality.

Rao is so.

Even the most coveted longevity Dao Fruit of True Immortals has become ineffective. They rely entirely on the life essence of living beings to determine how many years they can live. For those ancient beings who have exceeded the limit, this is tantamount to a death sentence.

Those who ascended to immortality before the Age of Ten Thousand Spirits, that is, those who ascended to immortality in the Ancient Emperor Era or even earlier, can be called the Ancient Ones, and they will be the first victims of the collapse of the heavens.

The main topic of this discussion revolves around these creatures. Faced with dire circumstances, they are capable of anything, and humanity must be on guard.

The Demon Lord, Lingbao, and even Wang Yu's master, Tai Xuanxian, were all True Immortals who cultivated in the early stages of the Myriad Spirits Era, and their ages had not yet reached the standard of the Ancients.

therefore.

There's no need to worry about being killed by drastic changes in the environment.

This is one of the few pieces of good news!
at that time.

On the Ancestral Immortal Hall.

The Demon Lord said solemnly, "The collapse of the heavens is what Tai Xuan called the cataclysmic calamity that will annihilate immortals, and this is only the beginning... The ancient beings were a group of people who abandoned their race and chose to sever their causal ties in order to survive."

The Demon Lord's words are not hard to understand. At the end of each era, a great calamity will descend. As long as the cause and effect are completely severed, the great calamity will be difficult to find.

therefore.

It is perfectly reasonable to say that those ancient people were merely surviving people who abandoned their race.

Lingbao Zhenxian agreed, saying, "These creatures will do anything to survive. For them, millions of years of accumulation are not just for waiting for this cataclysmic event."

It's all for that fourth step in the dark.

Even those who merely survive still have a pursuit and yearning for the Great Way!
The Sword Immortal of Separation and Hatred: "For the ancients, the depletion of their life essence is the real problem. But for such beings, replenishing their life essence is not difficult. However, if they want a long lifespan, the demonic path is the most suitable, as it replenishes itself by bypassing the life essence of other beings."

Upon hearing this...

Yi Qi Xian also looked solemn: "The ancients are no longer bound by race. To them, all the races in the entire universe are resources for prolonging their lives. They... will very likely launch a massacre!"

At that time.

The starry sky, spanning billions of light-years, would likely be littered with countless corpses.

Blood stains the sky!
At this moment, Wang Yu also realized that regardless of whether the weakness of the local Heavenly Dao was feigned, its inability to trigger a calamity capable of annihilating a true immortal was a fact.

Otherwise, there would be absolutely no need to make such a fuss.

The collapse of the heavens was the trigger. Dao Yanxian Venerable and the second alien Heavenly Dao were both used. The collapse of the Great Dao aroused the madness of the ancient true immortals of their native land, and thus a massacre was launched.

Isn't this a calamity for countless living beings?
There are also True Immortals and a vast number of beings from the Second and Third Otherworldly Realms. Although their cultivation systems are different, with the comprehension of True Immortals, they can achieve success in their cultivation after obtaining the Cave Heaven Method within a thousand years.

The Daoist temple transformed from a grotto-heaven greatly enhances the combat power of true immortals.

Whether it's the Nine Revolutions Immortal Path or the Qi Refining Immortal Path of the Third Otherworld, if a True Immortal cultivated through these two paths were to fight against a True Immortal from a Cave Heaven in a Daoist temple...

Among those of the same cultivation level, the chance of defeat exceeds 90%!
This is the advantage that the dojo brings.

Therefore.

Even if outsiders don't switch to the Cave Heaven Technique, they can be 100% certain that they also cultivate one of these techniques, such as the vast number of living beings and the True Immortal-level beings they have nurtured.

Once they perish, they transform into the Dao.

The benefits to the local Heavenly Dao will be immeasurable.

If the madness of the native ancients was the first butcher's knife, then the primordial demonic calamity of the second alien realm was the second butcher's knife, and the third alien realm had two butcher's knives: Dao Yan Immortal Venerable and the mysterious "Reincarnation Calamity".

These are all butcher knives that reap the lives of beings from the three universes!

Wang Yu always estimated things in the worst-case scenario. The feeling he got from the local Heavenly Dao was that it was a completely unpredictable and powerful force.

This attracted the Heavenly Dao of two other universes.

It was by no means a bad move, but a risky strategy that aimed to achieve big results with small investments.

'I don't know what Emperor Taiyi did to force the Heavenly Dao into this state. What we need to be wary of now is the fall of the chosen ones and the war that those ancient beings are very likely to start.'

Thinking about this...

Wang Yu stopped listening and offered his suggestions directly.

"The Great Dao collapses very quickly, but it still takes a thousand years. I have a treasure here that can help you overcome tribulations. It is called the [Innate Dragon-Phoenix Jade] and it is enough to weaken the power of the Ascension Tribulation by ninety percent."

"They can be temporarily lent to the clan's prodigies. Those cultivators like Wanbao and Tianyi, who have the potential to ascend to immortality but lack external assistance, should ascend to immortality as soon as possible to increase the strength of our human race."

Such a statement.

This made the Demon Lord, Lingbao, and the others' eyes light up.

The former was even more blunt: "Why didn't you bring out this treasure sooner? The human race's foundation is relatively weak. If we had this Dragon-Phoenix Jade, we could have gained at least five more True Immortals!"

Wang Yu raised an eyebrow but did not offer any further explanation.

Even if one survives the Ascension Tribulation, without sufficient territory, one cannot even carve out a Daoist temple. The only remaining territory is the Xuan Tian Remnant Domain opened up by Lord Ye Lan.

otherwise.

We still need to find a way to bring over some star fields and integrate them into the vast immortal realm, otherwise even if we become true immortals, our strength will not be enough. If we have a Daoist temple to rely on, it will be enough to guard the vastness.

"Senior Demon Lord, the Dragon Phoenix Jade is not a gift to the race. Remember to return it to me after you're done using it."

Such a treasure is not something that every top-tier clan possesses; it's highly likely that only the Dragon Court has a similar foundation.

Those around Wang Yu were bound to reach this point sooner or later.

There will be demand at that time.

Alternatively, it can be used as a highly valuable bargaining chip to exchange for treasures with other True Immortals.

of course.

The exchange here refers only to the opportunity to use the Dragon Phoenix Jade, not to giving the treasure to someone else. Wang Yu is not that stupid. If he were to exchange it, it would be to the human race.

Even the unrestrained and free-spirited Demon Lord had nothing to say about his remarks. His previous rebuke was merely a joke between close friends, not a genuine reprimand.

Lingbao Zhenxian said, "Since we have this treasure, let's make arrangements immediately. Fellow Daoist Yelan, you have obtained part of your Xuantian Remnant Domain Black Annihilation. The rest should be enough to establish three True Immortal Daoist Temples."

Lord Yelan waved his hand: "It's alright. As long as it can contribute to the human race, that's good. However, we also need to be wary of the Heavenly Dao of the Vast Immortal Realm."

Whether it's the Heavenly Dao of the World or the Heavenly Dao of the Immortal Realm.

Ultimately, being a lower-level entity within the Heavenly Dao of the Universe, it is indeed necessary to pay close attention at this critical juncture.

Wuliang Immortal (Azure Emperor's avatar) said, "There's no need to worry about that. Tai Xuan and I have both prepared backup plans. We can forcibly control the vast Heavenly Dao at crucial moments."

Ye Lan breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good, it's good that the seniors were prepared."

Wait until they finish speaking.

Wang Yu continued, "By the way, Senior Demon Lord, how is the Corpse Dissolution Immortal Path researched by the Nine Insect Corpse Venerable progressing? A thousand years ago, there were rumors that it was a path to immortality that could avoid the Feathering Immortal Tribulation, but the strength would be much weaker."

The Demon Lord was taken aback upon hearing this.

With a complicated expression, he said, "He has currently researched three paths to the Immortal Path of Corpse Dissolution: Corpse Dissolution, Water Dissolution, and Fire Dissolution... However, there are currently no one willing to try them."

"How to say?"

"The art of 'corpse dissolution' involves severing one's life with a weapon imbued with malevolent energy. Theoretically, if performed according to the Corpse Dissolution Method, a cultivator can be resurrected, even achieving the status of a Corpse Dissolution Immortal. However, in reality, no one dares to attempt it." Resurrection after death.

According to common knowledge, only beings with the mark of a true immortal can do this, and the research on the Nine Insect Corpse Venerable requires those at the peak of the Tribulation Transcending stage to risk their lives.

Who dares?

The methods of hydrolysis and fire decomposition are similar, but one requires choking to death and the other requires burning to death, making them extremely difficult for beings at the peak of their tribulation.

It is far beyond what ordinary water and fire can accomplish in terms of corpse dissolution.

Moreover, the Nine Insect Corpse Lord himself had never tried the Corpse Dissolution Method. He cultivated to the point of Dao Integration through the method of refining corpses, and later comprehended the Three Corpses and Nine Insects Method, slaying the three corpses and controlling the nine insects, thus achieving Mahayana.

He wasn't even a Transcendent Immortal, so who would dare to cultivate the method he had comprehended? Therefore, once the method was formed, it got stuck and fell into a predicament where no one sought to verify it.

With the collapse of the heavens now certain, it will be almost impossible to attain the true immortality of the orthodox path in the future. This path of corpse liberation to become an immortal may well be a way to continue the lineage.

Even if the immortal you become is very weak.

That completes the essential transformation; one can continue cultivating further.

Wang Yu said, "Senior Demon Lord, have the Nine Insect Corpse Venerable make a copy of the method. I will study it myself and also find some alien creatures to test it out."

Whether it's the local Heavenly Dao or the true immortals from other realms.

There's not much the human race can do, and Wang Yu also supports continuing the defensive posture. As long as it doesn't affect him, it's always good to observe and learn more.

In this situation, studying autopsy techniques might be a good idea.

This is a way of preparing for the future.

"Alright."

The Demon Lord wasn't worried that Wang Yu would personally practice the Corpse Dissolution Technique, since he had already become a True Immortal and didn't have much need for such a shortcut.

It's just for the sake of the future.

After the order was given, someone quickly transmitted the method to Wang Yu's Immortal Palace Token, so he could check it at any time.

Next.

One Qi Immortal was in charge of managing the affairs of the Immortal Palace, while the Sword Immortal of Separation and Hatred followed the True Immortal of Spirit Treasure to temporarily leave the vast Immortal Realm to contact other races in the Cultivation Alliance.

Beware of the possibility of a massacre by the ancients.

Apart from the Myriad Immortals Alliance, the existing top forces in the Cosmic Sea are all composed of various races, and it is highly likely that no ancient beings exist behind them.

Even if it exists, it's the kind where the cause and effect haven't been severed.

For these ancient beings who are deeply sentimental and entangled in cause and effect, there is no need to worry about them slaughtering living beings to prolong their lives, because they place their race above their own lives.

How could they possibly do something that would bring disaster upon their race?
Only those old, fearless villains who have no ties and are barefoot will choose the simplest, most direct, and most efficient method of slaughter and killing!

…………

…………

The second meeting of the Ancestral Immortal Hall has concluded.

Wang Yu reviewed the results of his seclusion. The Three Pure Ones Jade Scroll was extremely profound. Although it could not bring about a substantial increase in power, its potential benefits were endless.

He had already glimpsed the shadow of the ninth realm of the mind, and estimated that he would probably have to wait until the Three Pure Ones Jade Book was completely perfected before he could deduce the cultivation method of the ninth realm of the mind.

Another thing is...

Not long after the meeting ended, the jade talisman he left for the Immortal Soul Elder, who was also Lin Fan's master, was finally activated, presumably returning to this universe.

With Dao Yan Immortal Venerable setting a precedent, he gave the local powerhouses a warning, so even though the passage to the third alien realm was opened in the Origin Demon Realm, those Demon Emperor powerhouses only dared to have opinions in their hearts.

The collapse of the heavens had a similarly profound impact on the Demon Emperor.

The chaotic battle between the three factions has been suppressed, but the fuse has long been lit. The reason why the bombs are not detonating is not because they are duds, but because they are covered by a larger nuclear bomb.

As a massive influx of third-dimensional alien beings into the Demon Realm.

Many worlds in the far north were naturally "requisitioned" as temporary footholds for these alien creatures. However, the demonic energy here was too heavy, and there were countless evil spirits and malevolent forces.

It is completely unsuitable for Qi cultivators in the Third Realm.

Therefore.

Most of them are just temporary stopovers, and they will eventually move to normal star fields or immortal realms, which is why those demon emperors chose to be patient.

Not long after.

Wang Yu arrived instantly using spatial beacons.

As far as the eye could see, a massive number of creatures poured out of the alien passage like ants, quickly landing in the nearby world and beginning to build palaces and pavilions to provide a place to stay.

He only glanced at it before contacting Lin Fan's master, and the two met in the void of the outer universe.

About it.

The old man had already possessed a body and looked at Wang Yu with an extremely complicated expression.

This made him smile: "Fellow Daoist, it seems that the possibilities I mentioned last time have been verified?"

"Sigh...it's mostly as you guessed."

The old man with the immortal soul paused.

"The Immortal Venerable herds all living beings. Those who cultivate to become true immortals will undergo a unique test of the Heavenly Dao. Those who succeed will enjoy eternal life, while those who fail will only have a lifespan of a million years."

"I also went through this back then, but I never expected there to be more to it than I thought. My memory is probably faulty. The Ancestral God... which is what you call the Heavenly Dao, was mostly refined by Dao Yan Immortal Venerable."

"This is the fundamental reason why his strength exceeds one realm, but it also restricts him, preventing him from leaving that universe, unless Dao Yan can completely devour the Ancestral God."

"I see."

The situation was largely as Wang Yu had deduced.

The old man of the immortal soul didn't know much about the Qi Refining Immortal Technique. He guessed it was probably even more brutal than he had guessed, so he didn't ask any more questions, since he didn't cultivate this path anyway.

"By the way, do you have any more specific information about the cycle of reincarnation?"

"Yes, it's actually related to that kid Lin Fan."

Speaking of this...

The old man's expression became even more complicated. Clearly, much of the information he had gathered during this period had overturned his past understanding and beliefs, and he was greatly shocked.

"Lin Fan's parents most likely died at Dao Yan's hands."

Wang Yu frowned.

"How is that possible? Even if a dignified Immortal Venerable were to harvest sentient beings, there are still basic requirements. I have calculated that Lin Fan's parents are only fourth-order beings."

"Alas, the true reason for the occurrence of the Great Tribulation of Reincarnation lies in Dao Yan's method of transforming the tribulation. He refines the Ancestral God (Heavenly Dao) by harvesting all living beings."
"It also uses the lives of all sentient beings to eliminate countless eons, but this method does not cure the root cause; instead, it accumulates into this endless cycle of reincarnation."

"Within five hundred years, all those beings who died in the Dao Evolution Tribulation method will be resurrected by the Ancestral God using the ultimate principle of reincarnation, and will possess a truly immortal and indestructible body."

"They are vengeful spirits who will slaughter any living being they see. If I'm not mistaken, they should have a way to completely subdue Dao Yan Immortal Venerable."

Wang Yu was taken aback upon hearing this.

He then asked suspiciously, "You've been deceived for countless years. How could you have gathered so much information in just sixty years? Who told you this? And even... deliberately used you to tell me!"

The old man with the immortal soul suddenly laughed.

"As expected, you noticed. Those people weren't looking for you or me; to be precise, they were attracted by Lin Fan."

"Tell me more about it~"

"Okay." (End of Chapter)
