Cultivating Immortality in a Family: I Prove Immortality Through the Chaotic Dao Realm

Chapter 260: Sending a Message to Start a New Journey.

According to Aka's detailed investigation, the Void Demon Emperor's healing technique has now reached its most crucial moment—

The annihilation contained in the golden light descending from the heavens on the demon core has reached a state of balance with the primordial vitality stimulated by its secret technique.

In just a few more days, it will be able to completely suppress this desolate atmosphere and then slowly erase it.

Once this crucial juncture is overcome, the healing process will proceed smoothly, and the crisis of death will be averted.

This was Chen Qian's last chance to put his idea into practice.

If Kongming gets past this hurdle, then Chen Qian will have absolutely no chance of swallowing it into the Myriad Beasts Heaven.

If Kongming's consciousness were to recover even a fraction of its strength and become more vigilant, Chen Qian would have no chance.

“Master, according to Aka’s speculation… the success rate of catching this big fish is very high, but…” In his mind’s eye, Aka analyzed Chen Qian’s thoughts with a confident tone, but then took a turn.

"But what?" Chen Qian asked curiously.

Since we can succeed, what is there to worry about? But... what?
"But... after capturing this giant fish, we... not only can't do anything to it, we'll also need... to use all the power in the realm to suppress it..."

After hesitating for more than ten breaths, Aka finally spoke with some uncertainty.

"Huh?!" Chen Qian was dumbfounded.

In other words, even if we were to bring this Void Kun into the Myriad Beasts Heaven, we still wouldn't be able to devour it.
"Yes Master."

Aka continued, "Although the spiritual energy of the Destiny Wheel Realm is abundant... and can be constantly replenished by the Chaos Sea, its current level is only... second-tier, which is simply insufficient to deplete the... fundamental energy of a fourth-tier life form..."

"The reason we were able to suppress it... is because we have the Kunpeng Demon Core..."

"Once this giant fish regains consciousness and firmly guards its soul and demonic body, we will be powerless against it..."

"Moreover, the Wheel of Fate will also be greatly affected... because it will have no power... to do anything else..."

Upon hearing this, Chen Qian felt a little upset. Was he destined to be unable to take advantage of such a good opportunity and instead have to slink away in disgrace?
“Master… has a way…” Aka changed the subject.

"Huh?!" Chen Qian rolled his eyes. Little Aka! Can't you just say it all at once?

"There is a fourth-tier spiritual vein here... We can utilize its power..."

After some communication, Chen Qian finally understood the situation.

That is to say—

Given Kongming's current "cooperation," Chen Qian only needs to manifest the core space of the Myriad Beasts Heaven and use the Kunpeng Demon Core to absorb that ball of Demon Emperor's blood. The partially revived Kunpeng Domain can completely imprison and suppress all of Kongming's resistance.

However, if one wishes to destroy the Void Demon Core and its soul, it will be necessary to rely on the power of the fourth-tier spiritual vein within the Eternal Night Palace.

Because of the existence of the Kunpeng Domain, a power that is essentially far superior to the fourth rank, with the combined power of all the current Destiny Wheel Realm, plus Aka's overall control, it is even possible to accurately locate the core of the fourth-rank spiritual vein and gradually absorb it into the Destiny Wheel Realm, making it the resources for refining the Void.

But this involves an extremely serious problem, and the final outcome is difficult to predict.

That is, to forcibly use and seize the power of the fourth-order spiritual vein to enter the Destiny Wheel Realm. Once this is done, the world will of the Heavenly Realm will certainly not sit idly by.

It's hard to say how He will react.

This is also basic common sense in the cultivation world.

The way of Heaven is impartial and its majesty is unfathomable.

From the perspective of the world's will, spiritual veins below the fourth rank are not worth mentioning.

Even if a cultivator were to attempt to capture or destroy a third-tier spiritual vein, there would likely be no consequences; at most, their luck would be somewhat diminished.

As for first and second-tier spiritual veins, they are not worth mentioning at all.

These are even everyday items sold at some high-end auctions and high-end chambers of commerce, or they can also be used as a means of payment.

However, once the spiritual vein reaches the fourth level, the consequences are completely different.

Capturing or destroying spiritual veins of the fourth rank or higher will inevitably invite interference from the world's will.

The possible consequences are something even a Nascent Soul cultivator could not bear.

Before having the strength to completely break free from the Heavenly Realm, no cultivator would dare to easily attempt such a thing.

What Chen Qian wants to do now is just that.

Because simply absorbing some superficial fourth-order spiritual energy is useless in order to obliterate a fourth-order behemoth like the Void Demon Emperor; one must utilize the primordial spiritual energy of the fourth-order spiritual vein.

Not to mention, Chen Qian also wanted to take the opportunity to capture the entire fourth-order spiritual vein into the Life Wheel Realm, so that the level of the spiritual veins in the realm could achieve a leapfrog development.

This is tantamount to snatching food from the mouth of the Celestial Realm, and even trying to knock out one of His teeth.

Do you think the will of the Celestial Realm can tolerate this?
Fortunately, there are still a few days to consider it.

Once you take action, there's no turning back.

……

After leaving the Beast Heaven, Chen Qian returned to the Xuanzhu Palace.

At this moment, Shen Qianxue, an unofficial member of the Fate Wheel Realm, was chatting casually with Chen Yunxi and the other women in a quiet pavilion.

Shen Qianxue was very familiar with Chen Qian's wives and concubines.

What feels like a month outside is a whole season here.

So much time has passed, and the women have all been trying to get along well, so their relationship is naturally quite good.

It was winter outside, and sparse snowflakes were falling over the sky above Xuanzhu Palace.

This is a winter scene created by Chen Qian in a moment of inspiration. As long as the women want, they can create it at will, regardless of the season or climate.

Of course, this only applies to the Xuanzhu Palace.

In other parts of the Destiny Wheel Realm, the climate follows the laws of nature, and Chen Qian will not interfere recklessly, lest it affect the lives of the people in the realm.

Even setting aside the entire Celestial Realm, the southern part of the insignificant Eastern Abyss Dragon Tail Domain is vast and boundless.

In such a world, different climates and seasons occur every tens of thousands of miles, which is quite amazing.

It's possible that the State of Li is experiencing the height of summer, while the State of Chu is in the depths of winter.

If a high-level cultivator were to seek out secluded and scenic spots, he could experience all four seasons in a single day.

Fine white fluff drifted slowly from the sky, casting a light white hue over the magnificent palace complex.

The whole world seemed to have become much gentler, and the passage of time seemed to have slowed down.

As Chen Qian smelled the cool and refreshing scent, the anxiety in his mind gradually faded away, and his mind became infinitely open at that moment.

"Why hesitate? Just follow your heart!"

At this moment, the thought that had been stuck in my throat and I couldn't make a decision suddenly became clear.

Not only will I be able to devour this fourth-order spiritual vein, but I might even be able to devour the entire Heavenly Realm in the future!

……

The world's will targets nothing more than the stripping away of one's destiny, the locking in of natural disasters, and the connection of human calamities.

Having made up his mind to take advantage of this fourth-order spiritual vein, Chen Qian's innate divine soul merged with the will of the Destiny Wheel Realm, allowing him to quickly understand the tribulation he might be facing.

As the master of the Wheel of Fate, even though his current level of power is still low, his essence is profound, and the fortune of the Heavenly Realm cannot yet affect him.

Furthermore, since the Fate Wheel Realm cannot be perceived, even the Heavenly Calamity, as the ruler of a realm related to the divine soul, cannot lock onto Chen Qian. Therefore, the only remaining means for the world's will of the Celestial Realm to target him is through human intervention.

If Chen Qian forcibly tries to extract the spiritual energy from the source of the spiritual vein, then...

The most likely reaction from the Celestial Realm would be to teleport those beings who harbor ill will towards Chen Qian into the area of ​​this fourth-order spiritual vein.

The purpose of having these beings eliminate Chen Qian, a threat, is to ultimately protect the fourth-order spiritual vein.

Now that he had figured out the possible situations he might encounter in the future, Chen Qian naturally needed to make the necessary preparations.

This process requires the protection of others; it cannot be accomplished by one's own recklessness.

Thinking of this, Chen Qian turned his gaze to Shen Qianxue, who was smiling slightly and talking quietly with Chen Yunxi and the others in the quiet pavilion, enjoying the snow scenery together.

……

At the top of Tianfeng Pass, the milky white glow of the crystal tablet reflected the cold, frost-like face of Jade Sword True Lord.

She had just finished gaining initial control over the Lonely Star Sword Intent when she came to this top floor, wanting to take one last look at the crystal tablet before heading to the Void Island to investigate.

Her Mirror Void Token was different from those of Chen Qian and the others; it was a mid-level token, linked to the Earth Ranking of the Beast Extermination Ranking, whose members were all Nascent Soul True Monarchs.

[Eastern Abyss, Southern Dragon Tail Domain, Beast Extermination Ranking, Intermediate Mirror Sky Token]

[Motto: Exterminate the beasts and cleanse the source, trace back to the origin and return to the primordial energy; the mirror of emptiness will never perish, and humanity will endure forever!]

[Power: Cleanse the source of beasts, transform into human energy!]

[Key points: omitted...]

[Kill Points Rules]

[From late stage of Tier 1 to perfection: 1 point]

[Second Tier: Initial Stage - 10 points; Mid-Stage - 30 points; Late Stage - 80 points; Perfect Stage - 100 points]

[Tier 3: Initial stage: 1000 points; Mid-stage: 3000 points; Late-stage: 8000 points; Perfect stage: 10,000 points]

[Tier 4: The points reward varies considerably depending on the target's bloodline and potential. Early stage: 100,000 to 200,000; Mid-stage: 300,000 to 1,000,000; Late stage: 2,000,000 to 5,000,000; Perfect stage: 8,000,000 to 10,000,000]

If multiple token holders kill the same target, the points will be shared according to their specific contributions.

[The fifth-tier target is within the Heavenly Ranking. After the token holder's cultivation advances to the fifth tier, please go to the Kunwu Sect's Mirror Realm headquarters to upgrade the token level.]

Divine thought, like a sword, was poured into the Mirror Void Token, and the jade sword sent a request to view the list.

A few breaths later, a milky white spiritual energy descended from the crystal tablet and shot into the Mirror Token of the jade sword.

At the same time, a radiant silver list slowly appeared in Jade Sword True Monarch's sea of ​​consciousness.

Because of its high information level, this ranking information will not be directly displayed on the crystal tablets at the sub-ranking level. To view the ranking, the holder must send a request to view it.

Eastern Abyss Beast Extermination Ranking - [Earth Ranking] - Overall Individual Ranking (Top 1000)

[Top of the list: Jiang Huang] (Points: 1.3869573 billion)

……

[Rank 359,544: Shen Yuyu] (Points: 13,300)
Those who make the list can see their ranking alongside the top 1,000.

Seeing her ranking, she smiled self-deprecatingly. These ten thousand points were earned years ago when she killed monsters in the Dragon Tail Domain Star Pass.

Her sword has yet to draw blood during this exploration!
The jade sword's divine sense swept across the pass, both inside and out.

The eighth platform below was no longer as bustling as it had been a month ago, as most of the cultivators had already gone to the front lines.

But the traces of war are everywhere—in the distance, in the direction of Kurosawa Plain, the turbid energy of beasts and the purifying spiritual light intertwine and collide, and the roar of spells and the howls of monsters can be faintly heard.
Nearby, the cultivators repairing the array base, the shuttles transporting supplies, and the weary figures just emerging from the mission hall together paint a grand and tense picture of war.

Jade Sword's gaze finally turned to the southeast, towards the direction of Kongming Island.

The sight of Shen Qianxue being abducted before her very eyes felt like a thorn in her heart, causing her great anxiety.

Shen Qianxue had been cultivating alongside her since childhood. Although she was a junior in the clan, their relationship was more like that of master and disciple, and they had a deep bond.

Although the connection to the bloodline technique had not been severed, proving that she was still alive, her whereabouts were unknown, and being in this desolate wilderness was extremely dangerous.

Furthermore, what exactly is the state of the Void Demon Emperor's injuries? Is he on the verge of death and in hibernation, or is he recovering?
This directly relates to the course of the entire pioneering war and the safety of the cultivation world in the Li Kingdom.

"We must go and investigate," Yu Jian murmured, his cool voice carrying an undeniable determination.

Just then, a familiar sensing talisman in my arms began to vibrate slightly.

"Huh?!" Jade Sword True Monarch was taken aback. It was Qianxue!
This little girl! Is it because you're finally out of danger and willing to contact her now?

Divine consciousness probes in.

In a few breaths, Jade Sword True Monarch's expression changed constantly.

"This... is truly unbelievable!" Jade Sword True Monarch murmured softly, his tone filled with disbelief.

She moved slightly, her moon-white sword robe fluttering without wind, and a condensed, tangible sword light rose from the ancient sword box behind her—her natal flying sword, "Tai Su Ming".

With a flash of sword light, she transformed into a streak of light, tearing through the sky and shooting straight southeast.

……

The sword light swept across the sky above Kurosawa Plain.

The jade sword looked down and took in the scene of the pioneering battle.

……

In the area that has been initially brought under control, the monk squads can be seen busily setting up the "Qingyuan Formation".

The array plate was embedded in the earth's vein nodes, and rays of clear light rose up, fiercely fighting against the pervasive turbid beast energy. It was like throwing purifying light orbs into a murky inkwell, painstakingly opening up the realm of human energy.

……

A newly established cultivator stronghold is being attacked by a small group of demonic beasts.

The light barrier of the magic array flickered, and the cultivators relied on the array base to form a defensive formation, with talismans, flying swords, and spells intertwining to create a dense network of firepower.

……

In the distance, the Beast Taming Sect's warships hovered, with cultivators on board riding spirit birds, constantly swooping down to kill the demonic beasts that tried to flank them.

A team led by several Foundation Establishment cultivators was collecting various spiritual materials. They moved swiftly and kept a vigilant eye on their surroundings.

……

Deeper into the vast swamp, the beast energy was so dense it was almost tangible, and a colossal demonic shadow could be vaguely seen lurking within.

Occasionally, a powerful, probing demonic aura would surge into the sky, colliding with the oppressive force emanating from the immortal sect's warships and causing the space to tremble.

Those were some third-tier demon kings who had not yet been eliminated. Some were being besieged by human cultivators, their territories were being gradually eroded, and their subordinates were being constantly stripped of their power.

……

With the Void Demon Emperor severely injured and lying low, the human cultivators' advance is proceeding extremely smoothly, without needing any intervention from Nascent Soul cultivators.

Reclaiming wasteland is no easy task. Behind every inch of this land teeming with human energy lies the blood and sweat of countless cultivators.
