If you were asked to conquer immortality, you would just kill your way through?

With Chen Zheng, along with Linglong Immortal Venerable, Chiyuan Demon Venerable, Xinmo Elder, and the members of the Qunxing Sect leaving the Wuji Great World, the battle to destroy the Wuji Star Palace has temporarily come to an end.

This trip not only allowed me to successfully advance to the Cave Heaven Realm with tens of thousands of trillions of Nine Yang Holy Water from the Wuji Star Palace, but also yielded a celestial artifact, making it a truly fulfilling experience.

But there may be more to the story in the Wuji World.

After all, the Wuji Star Palace is the lineage of the Ninghuang Palace in the Immortal Realm. Chen Zheng not only wiped out the entire family, but also fought against the immortals of the Ninghuang Palace from afar. The other party will definitely not let it go.

Perhaps at this moment, the immortal has already gone to "Ferocious Emperor" to complain about Chen Zheng.

Chen Zheng naturally knew about Ninghuang. In fact, he had a connection with the Taiyi Sect and was one of the offspring of the Heavenly Lord of Calamity in the Immortal Realm. He was of high status, ruthless, and vindictive. After learning about Chen Zheng's situation, he would definitely try to control the rules of the Immortal Realm and send immortals or even personally descend to the mortal realm to kill Chen Zheng.

That will be another fierce battle.

Although the Ferocious Emperor was powerful, Chen Zheng was not afraid at all. If pushed too far, he would simply pay the price of being weakened for a period of time and use the Three Lives Stone to obliterate him, so that he would never enter the cycle of reincarnation again.

In short, Chen Zheng, now possessing the Three Lives Stone, is no longer the same as before and has no need to fear anyone.

Even the father of the Ferocious Emperor, the Heavenly Lord of Calamity, and even those supreme immortal kings, were not beyond his power to kill.

Back to the topic.

After leaving the Boundless Great World, Chen Zheng did not return directly to the Xuanhuang Great World, but instead led everyone to the sky above the Chaotic Continent once again.

Three people are waiting for him here, one of whom is a Daoist who is a hybrid of the chaotic primordial spirit and the artifact spirit.

The other two were a mother and daughter. The mother was plump, like a ripe peach, while the daughter had a youthful face but a slender waist and a full figure. In short, the two women each had their own merits and were both deadly weapons. They were Yun Yun and Yun Jin, who had separated from Chen Zheng's clone outside the cultivation world and came to the chaotic continent to find his original body.

Chen Zheng had already encountered them before. At that time, he wanted to destroy the Wuji Star Palace and seize the Hunyuan Wuji Diagram, so he asked them to stay here and wait for his return.

"My husband, you're amazing!"

As soon as the mother and daughter saw Chen Zheng, they happily rushed over, each hugging his arm on either side, clinging to him like little birds, and gazing at him with adoration.

They had previously witnessed Chen Zheng's invincible prowess in using the first move of the True Demon Ten Styles, "Boundless Calamity Sea," to single-handedly annihilate the entire Wuji Star Palace and suppress a True Immortal with a single drop of Calamity Water. They were all deeply shocked, admired, and felt fortunate.

I am so fortunate to be able to serve such an unparalleled man as Chen Zheng; it is truly an honor beyond measure.

Let alone the mother and daughter, even if all the women of their ancestors for eighteen generations were brought to serve Chen Zheng, they would be happy to do so.

"Let's go back to Linglong Paradise first and then talk about it."

Chen Zheng suddenly noticed that Linglong Immortal Venerable was looking at him with a somewhat unfriendly gaze, so he quickly grabbed Yun Yun and Yun Jin by the waist and disappeared from the spot.

Linglong Immortal Venerable frowned and followed.

"If I'm not mistaken, those are Yun Yun, the mistress of Jinxiu Mansion in the Great World of Cultivation, and her daughter. They have both been conquered by Immortal Venerable Chen. Immortal Venerable is quite fortunate with women."

The three elders and the others looked on with admiration, secretly praising Chen Zheng for his skillful maneuvering, and followed him.

…………

The big world of Xuanhuang.

A vast continent floats in the North Ocean, shaped like a giant tortoise shell. Its scenery is no different from that of the dynasties on land, with mountains, rivers, people, and strange beasts.

In the center of the endless mountains and rivers, numerous palace complexes rise from the ground, and layers of space are hidden deep within the palaces.

In addition, there is a semi-transparent, shimmering dome in the sky above the mainland, covering the entire continent and protecting its safety.

This is Wan Gui Immortal Island, one of the ten sects of immortality, and the tortoise-shell-shaped continent is the sect's top-grade Dao artifact.

Legend has it that long, long ago, when the founder of Wan Gui Immortal Island, "Wan Gui Zhenren," was traveling through the universe, he discovered a tortoise shell in the Milky Way. It was extremely sturdy, so he brought it back to the Xuanhuang Great World and used his great magic power to refine it into a top-grade Dao artifact, which he named Guicang Continent. He placed it on the sea as the supreme treasure of Wan Gui Immortal Island to be passed down for thousands of generations, and its power was no less than that of the Feathered Heaven Palace.

Furthermore, the Guicang Continent, after being refined by generations of ancestors on Wan Gui Immortal Island, has been connected to the sea eye deep in the Great Northern Ocean. If the sect encounters danger, it can mobilize the power of the sea eye to defend against enemies, making it as solid as a rock.

At this moment, in the very center of the continent, hundreds of people gathered in a magnificent palace carved from ten-thousand-year-old cold jade, as clear as crystal. They were all extraordinary figures, ancient giants, with more than a hundred Supreme Elders at the third to sixth level of the Longevity Realm.

Especially below the four large characters "万川归海" (All Rivers Flow into the Sea) formed by black dragons above the main hall, two middle-aged men sat suspended in mid-air, both dressed in black imperial robes. Above their heads, two chaotic holes were faintly visible, exuding a majestic aura that could swallow the sun and moon, like two black emperors. They were actually two powerful experts at the eighth level of the Longevity Realm.

Clearly, the two were the founders of Wan Gui Immortal Island. Although they were not as numerous as the three Chaos Cultivators of the Starry Sky Sect, they were still one more than the Feathered Ascension Sect.

"Two patriarchs, the offerings are ready. Shall we immediately initiate the most ancient Sea Emperor Ritual of our sect to summon the true spirit of the 'Sea Emperor' to descend to the mortal realm?"

Among the crowd below, an old Taoist priest, dressed in a long, patterned blue robe that looked as if he were wearing an ancient tortoise shell, bowed to the crowd and asked a question.

This old Taoist priest is the supreme leader of Wan Gui Immortal Island, named Wan Yushu. His cultivation level is no less than Feng Baiyu's, and he is also at the fifth level of the Longevity Realm.

As soon as he spoke, the hundreds of people in the room fell silent, all looking up at the two patriarchs in the sky, some with fierce expressions and others with expectant looks.

The Sea Emperor is one of the supreme beings in the Immortal Realm and the object of worship for all the people of Wan Gui Immortal Island. Once a sect encounters a powerful enemy and reaches the final moment of life and death, it can hold the Sea Emperor Festival to summon a wisp of the Sea Emperor's true spirit to descend to the mortal realm and annihilate the invading enemy.

However, the Sea Emperor Festival is no small matter. It has not been held on Wan Gui Immortal Island for a long time. The last time was hundreds of thousands of years ago, during the war between immortals and demons.

Moreover, each time the Sea Emperor Sacrifice is launched, it requires the flesh and souls of hundreds of billions, or even trillions, of living beings as offerings in order to successfully summon the true spirit of the Sea Emperor.

Sacrificing billions of lives is an act of demonic conduct, and Wan Gui Immortal Island, as one of the righteous paths, would naturally not do it lightly.

I dare not do it.

Once things are exposed, the situation will be dire.

Even the Taiyi Sect would use the pretext of slaying demons and eliminating evil to punish them on Wan Gui Immortal Island.

But now, even if we don't dare, we have to.

The Taiyi Sect is too busy taking care of itself to have any time to punish them.

All this is because Chen Zhengtai has become so powerful, surpassing all enemies throughout history, making everyone uneasy, as if a sharp sword is hanging over their necks, ready to fall at any moment.

If Chen Zheng doesn't die, who can have peace of mind?
Therefore, during this period, Wan Gui Immortal Island has sent a large number of cultivators to various places under its jurisdiction to capture hundreds of billions of living beings and bring them back as sacrifices, in preparation for launching the Sea Emperor Sacrifice, so that the Sea Emperor can kill Chen Zheng and protect the sect.

We are just waiting for the two patriarchs to give their orders.

“Our disciples Wan Lianshan, Wan Qin, and others offended that Old Demon Chen. Although they are dead, Old Demon Chen is narrow-minded and has now achieved great cultivation. He will definitely not let us go and wants to eliminate us completely. He may attack at any time. We must launch the Sea Emperor Sacrifice without delay.” One of the patriarchs, who was floating in the sky, said in a deep voice. His name was Wan Haiwang.

“Only by summoning the true spirit of the Sea Emperor to descend to the mortal realm and guard the Guicang Continent can we be safe. We might even be able to kill Old Demon Chen and seize the secret of his rapid rise. At that time, our Wan Gui Immortal Island might be able to rival the Taiyi Sect, or even unify the Xuanhuang.” Another patriarch, Wan Haihou, also spoke, a greedy glint in his eyes.

Upon seeing that the two patriarchs agreed, Wan Yushu was overjoyed and immediately announced loudly, "Good! Everyone, listen to my command! Immediately follow me to the altar, and release the many creatures you have captured from their respective caves and magical treasures for a blood sacrifice. Summon the Sea Emperor to descend to the mortal realm, kill Old Demon Chen, and unify Xuanhuang!"

"Slay Old Demon Chen and unify the world!"

The crowd roared excitedly, as if they could already see the Sea Emperor of the Celestial Realm descending to earth and sweeping across the world.

Swish swish!
Everyone followed Wan Yushu out of the main hall and soon arrived at the depths of the Guicang Continent, in an abyss that was thousands of miles in circumference and hundreds of thousands of feet deep.

The abyss was pitch black, seemingly leading to the deepest part of the ocean floor, the sea eye.

Beside the abyss stood an ancient altar stained with blood, exuding a chilling aura, from which the faint wails of living beings could be heard.

Atop the ancient altar stands a totem pole, adorned with countless images depicting creatures resembling humans, so lifelike they seem to be sea creatures born from the ocean at the dawn of time. These sea creatures once established an ancient civilization, now lost to the annals of history, but their worship seems to emanate a strange power.

"Push all living beings into the abyss and begin the sacrifice!" Wan Yushu's face was full of bloodlust as he led everyone to the edge of the totem pole and pointed to the bottomless abyss below, giving the order.

"Yes!"

The crowd obeyed the order and took out their magical treasures or opened their own inner worlds, creating an opening to dump the countless imprisoned creatures into the abyss like garbage.

"Ah ah ah..."

"Do not kill me……"

Thousands upon thousands of slaves, demons, monsters, humans, and some cultivators whose magic was sealed, as well as ancient giants, fell into the abyss in large numbers. While still in mid-air, their bodies were cut apart by strange forces, and they let out shrill screams.

Most of these beings were from the various dynasties and islands under the jurisdiction of Wan Gui Immortal Island. Many of them knew the elders of Wan Gui Immortal Island and served them, but now they have become sacrifices.

The people of Wan Gui Immortal Island have absolutely no compassion.

Even the sect leader, Wan Yushu, felt that people were dying too slowly, and urged with a raised brow, "Hurry up, at this rate, when will the sacrifice be completed?"

Wow! Wow!
Upon hearing this, everyone quickly widened the opening in the cave, accelerating the process of expelling the creatures.

"Didn't you promise my Sea Soul Gang that as long as we obediently serve as your slaves, you wouldn't kill us? In the past five hundred years, my Sea Soul Gang has mined countless veins for your Myriad Return Immortal Island. Why didn't you keep your promise? Why?!"

"Our sect has done countless things for Wan Gui Immortal Island over the years, yet you want to kill us! You are utterly beasts! You beasts, just wait! Immortal Venerable Chen will soon come knocking on our door, leaving your entire sect in a bloodbath, with not a single chicken or dog spared..."

Many people, seeing that crying and begging for mercy were useless, began to curse the people of Wan Gui Immortal Island in a frenzy before they died.

"Hmph, what kind of bullshit Immortal Venerable Chen is he? He's just a mere greenhorn, what's there to fear?"

"If Old Demon Chen dares to come here, Lord Sea Emperor will crush him with a single finger, turning him into a bloody, mangled meat patty, you know that?!"

Wan Yushu and the others sneered repeatedly, showing no fear whatsoever.

"Oh?"

A voice suddenly appeared from nowhere, shaking the space and time and reaching everyone's ears.

Although it was only one word, it was extremely terrifying, causing Wan Yushu and the others to tremble with fear, as if the king of heaven was judging ants, and could wipe out anyone in the world with just a thought.

"Who's playing tricks? Show yourself!"

Wan Yushu gritted his teeth and roared, his voice shaking many dimensions, intending to alert Wan Haiwang and Wan Haihou in the distant palace to come and kill this unknown powerful enemy.

Boom!

A terrifying roar shook the abyss violently, as if some peerless monster had burst forth from the earth, blasting a pitch-black hole—a spacetime wormhole—into the abyss!

"It's me, what do you think?"

A detached voice came from the end of the wormhole, so powerful that Wan Yushu and the others almost lost control of their bladders. They hurriedly looked towards the wormhole and immediately saw a towering figure standing atop a mountain at the end of that time and space, his hands behind his back, his deep eyes gazing down at the vast earth.

That was none other than Chen Zheng!

"It's you... Chen... Old Demon Chen?" Wan Yushu and everyone else's faces changed color, and they retreated one after another.

To everyone's surprise, Chen Zheng came knocking on their door immediately after they had just said they were not afraid of him.

Still at this crucial moment.

It should be noted that the number of beings currently cast into the abyss is less than one hundred million, far from enough to warrant a sacrifice.

Without offering sacrifices, they cannot summon the Sea Emperor of the Celestial Realm, nor can they contend with Chen Zheng. What can they do?
Is Chen Zheng going to wipe out their entire Wan Gui Immortal Island today?

"We will mobilize the Guicang Continent to resist Old Demon Chen. You must quickly cast all living beings into the abyss and summon the Sea Emperor. As soon as the Sea Emperor's true spirit arrives in the mortal realm, slay him in an instant!"

An anxious roar echoed through time and space, entering the abyss; it was Wan Haihou and Wan Haiwang.

Boom!

As the two spoke, the entire Guicang Continent trembled violently, erupting with boundless brilliance. This caused countless waves to surge in the vast Northern Ocean. At the same time, the brilliance formed an unparalleled immortal sword, which plunged into the abyss and struck at the other end of the spacetime wormhole where Chen Zheng was located.

"Two ants dare to claim they can kill me? Fine, I'll sacrifice you all and lure that so-called Sea Emperor down to the mortal realm to see how he'll kill me."

Chen Zheng spoke coldly, his domineering aura descending through the wormhole, annihilating the peerless immortal sword, causing the Guicang Continent to fall silent, and the endless waves on the sea to freeze instantly.

Then Wan Yushu and many other elders and grand elders were horrified to find that their bodies were out of control. They threw their magic treasures on the altar, released all the creatures in their own caves into the magic treasures, and then flew one after another into the abyss.

Not only them, but also hundreds of thousands of people on Wan Gui Immortal Island outside, as well as the two patriarchs, Wan Haihou and Wan Haiwang, were drawn by a force into the abyss and fell downwards.

Chen Zheng actually intends to throw the entire Wan Gui Immortal Island sect into the abyss as a blood sacrifice in order to summon the Sea Emperor.

Although their numbers are less than a hundred billion, their superior cultivation makes them more than capable of summoning the Sea Emperor.

"Old Demon Chen, you can't offer us as a blood sacrifice to the Sea Emperor! We are one of the Ten Immortal Sects, the righteous path, not those lowly beings!"

"Stop! Let's talk this out! You are a Celestial Venerable, you must not do such bloody and brutal things!"

"Don't you really value human life? Don't you know that what you're doing is against the natural order? You deserve to die a horrible death..."

Wan Yushu, Wan Haihou, Wan Haiwang, and the others roared in terror, begging for mercy in regret. Their souls were almost scared out of their bodies. They struggled desperately in the air, trying to break free from Chen Zheng's oppressive aura and save their lives.

But it was all in vain.

Everyone on Wan Gui Immortal Island fell into the abyss, their screams rising and falling, each one more shrill than the last.

Everyone died in the blink of an eye.

At the same time, the resentment, anger, and unwillingness of the people before their deaths transformed into a strange power that surged out from the abyss and poured into the ancient totem pole on the altar. The many sea creatures carved on the pole seemed to come alive as soon as they moved.

Boom!

An ancient ocean aura erupted from the totem pole, reviving the ancient power that had been sedimented in the depths of the sea throughout history. This power was summoned and condensed into an enormous entity above the Myriad Return Immortal Island.

This being is entirely pale blue, with an ancient face and an extremely long beard that flutters in the wind like dragons dancing wildly, like a divine statue that has stood in the ocean for millions of years.

The statue holds a pale blue giant sword with an ancient and unusual design. The two hilts are shaped like a dragon whale, and the hilt is engraved with an ancient azure dragon with ten heads, one more than the most ancient nine-headed dragon. It is unknown whether it is a dragon or another race.

An unparalleled majesty emanated from the statue, radiating across the heavens and the earth, covering the entire Northern Ocean, threatening to suffocate the countless creatures in the sea, like an unrivaled overlord ruling over the entire ocean.

He is the Sea Emperor of the Celestial Realm!

"Who is it that summoned the supreme ruler of the immortal realm, the ruler of the endless sea, to descend to the mortal world?"

The Sea Emperor suddenly opened his eyes, his voice booming and resonating with the heavens and earth, causing the boundless ocean to surge and churn, as if a celestial emperor had descended, his power overwhelming the mortal world.

His eyes, initially blank and lifeless, instantly sharpened and became piercing, fixing on Chen Zheng at the end of the spacetime wormhole. (End of Chapter)
