Starting Immortal Cultivation from a White Dog
Chapter 262 Taibai Returns to His Position, Demon Saint Bai Qian
The faint golden light in the palm of the Fire Star Lord pierced through layers of the sky and spread into the depths of the Nine Heavens. The end of the thin line seemed to be a serpent exploring the path, outlining a blurry trajectory in the vast Nine Heavens.
The Nine Heavens are divided into the Lower Three Heavens, the Middle Three Heavens, and the Upper Three Heavens.
The three lower heavens are collectively known as the Chaotic Heavens, filled with turbulent void currents, legal tides, and starlight and malevolent energy. The deeper one goes, the more dangerous it becomes.
The Middle Three Heavens are also known as the Azure Heaven, the place where the Heavenly Star hangs in the sky. The stars in the heavens naturally evolve into the Milky Way, also known as the Heavenly River. The ancient saying "reaching the Azure Heaven and descending to the Yellow Springs" refers to this Heavenly River.
The stars in the Milky Way are the mud and sand, and the starlight and laws are the river water. The source is traced back to the Upper Three Heavens, and finally the mud and sand flow down into the Lower Three Heavens.
The Milky Way is difficult to cross; even true immortals can be submerged in it if they are not careful. It is said that in ancient times, the Heavenly Court had a large army stationed here as one of the defenses protecting the Heavenly Court.
As for the Upper Three Heavens, also known as the Starry Sky Heaven, the ancient Heavenly Court once set up the Zhou Tian Star Array here, using 365 ancient stars to suppress and connect the three realms of Heaven, Earth, and Man. It is the root of Heaven and Earth and the source of laws and principles.
To this day, the authority of the 365 ancient stars remains the source of Heavenly Court edicts and the foundation for Heavenly Court to appoint immortals and gods and suppress the Three Realms.
Using bloodline, karma, and the power of Mars as guides, the Fire God traced the location of the Wave Moon Cave. At first, when he passed through the first three heavens, the trajectory was relatively clear, but after entering the fourth heaven, the Milky Way surged and submerged everything.
The thin line began to tremble slightly, and its forward speed slowed down significantly.
Upon entering the seventh heaven, the Zhou Tian Star Array enveloped everything, distorting even time and the void. The pale gold threads were like rowing against the current, requiring immense magical power to fight against the celestial constellations for every inch of progress.
The Fire Star Lord's eyes shone brightly as he closely followed the direction of the thin thread. However, as the thread stubbornly pierced through the seventh and eighth heavens, the direction suddenly became blurred and scattered.
Like ripples created by a stone thrown into a deep pool, countless echoes of cause and effect, difficult to discern as true or false, spread across the boundless, profound darkness of the Ninth Heaven.
"Deep within the Ninth Heaven..."
The Fire Star Lord frowned, his voice carrying a rare hint of solemnity. The Ninth Heaven, the pinnacle of the Nine Heavens, is a place of primordial chaos and disordered spacetime, a place where the authority of ancient stars converges.
It can be said to be the place where the life foundation of many star deities throughout history is located, so it is not surprising that Kui Mu Star Deity's Wave Moon Cave is located here.
However, the location of the Wave Moon Cave is in the deepest part of the Ninth Heaven. Even with his Star Lord supernatural powers, using the bloodline karma as a guide, if he wanted to investigate and locate the exact location of the Wave Moon Cave inch by inch in that dark place where time is distorted and karma does not exist, eliminate countless false echoes, avoid spacetime traps, and finally pinpoint the exact location of the Wave Moon Cave, it would probably take at least several months of hard work.
His gaze swept across the Ninth Heaven, landing on the faint aura left behind by the Great Sun Palace Master as he fled, which was gradually dissipating.
If we spend several months tracking down Wave Moon Cave now, we will not only miss a golden opportunity, giving the Lord of the Great Sun Palace a chance to catch his breath and recover, but it will also be much more difficult to hunt him down in the future.
With Cao Tiangang's true body destroyed and his Dharma form severely injured, even if he hid in the Wave Moon Cave, it would be impossible for him to cross the Ninth Heaven and return to the mortal realm on his own.
Getting in is easy, but getting out is difficult.
This person is now a sitting duck; we can deal with him calmly after killing the Great Sun Palace Master, Mu Taishu.
"Those who are surrounded and killed today will not live!"
The Fire God snorted coldly, his eyes flashing with a chilling light as he quickly weighed the pros and cons. Finally, he raised his hand and recalled the pale gold thread that had extended to the ninth heaven, transforming it into a talisman containing complex causal relationships, which floated above his palm.
"I'll let you hide in that tortoise shell for a few more days." The Fire God's voice was as cold as ice as he flipped his hand and put away the talisman. "I'll deal with Mu Taishu first, and then slowly drag you out!"
Before he finished speaking, Huo De Xingjun suddenly turned around, his vast divine sense spreading out like a net, instantly locking onto the remaining wisp of energy of the Great Sun Palace Master. He took a step forward, causing the void to tremble, and pursued him.
……
Battlefield at Qiyun Mountain.
The Yinghuo Divine Ring above Wu Tian's head was frantically devouring the fragments of Yinghuo's authority and star power. As time passed, a lifelike phantom of Yinghuo, seemingly bearing flames and calamities, slowly emerged, condensed, and finally stabilized completely in the center of the ring.
The illusory image of Mars slowly rotated, and vague illusions of volcanic eruptions, cracked earth, and clashing weapons flashed across its surface, exuding an increasingly rich and pure aura of natural disaster.
Supernatural phenomena appeared, with Mars shining overhead.
Once the Divine Ring reaches a lifespan of one thousand years, it can evolve into extraordinary phenomena and enter the second level of the Primordial Spirit Realm.
Those with supernatural power seeds of grade ten or above can directly possess a thousand years of cultivation after awakening into supernatural power, and their divine ring age can reach one thousand years, directly stepping into the second level of primordial spirit.
Wu Tian's Yinghuo destiny is a 12th-grade divine power seed. Once he breaks through, he will directly possess 1,200 years of cultivation. At this time, the formation of strange phenomena is just a natural result.
The moment the Mars anomaly awakened, Wu Tian felt a qualitative leap in his strength, speed, control over fire and calamity, and perception and utilization of the killing and chaotic aura on the battlefield.
The halo above his head shone brightly, and the ancient star phenomenon of Mars emitted an incomparably dazzling blood-red light, fluttering like a blood-red flag.
"Roar!!!"
A roar containing endless ferocity and calamity erupted from the mouth of the Fiend that Wu Tian had transformed into, resonating with the divine ring.
"Buzz!"
A visible crimson ripple spread rapidly from the center of the divine ring, instantly covering an area of ten miles in radius.
These ripples are not actual spells or supernatural powers, but rather a manifestation of a field containing the authority and principles of Mars, almost like a Taoist temple for wandering immortals.
With the body of a primordial spirit and the characteristics of a wandering immortal, the terror of the ancient ferocious beast Huodou is evident.
Under the shimmering light of Mars, the battlefield suddenly became terrifying and eerie.
The cultivators from those aristocratic families, all below the Dao Embryo stage, froze in place. Then, without warning, wisps of dark red flames burst forth from their eyes, ears, mouths, noses, and even the pores of their skin.
This flame was not an external combustion, but rather emanated from within, directly igniting their vital energy, magical power, and even their souls.
The piercing screams abruptly ceased, and even their throats were instantly charred.
In just two or three breaths, thousands of cultivators were transformed into distorted, charred corpses, which then crackled and shattered under the continued burning flames, eventually turning into a pile of black ash.
Only a few high-quality magical artifacts and weapons clattered to the ground, and most of them lost their luster.
The cultivators at the Dao Embryo Realm, with their higher cultivation levels, could barely resist the internally generated Fire of the Heart, but their minds suffered a more direct and violent impact and contamination.
The moment the divine light of Mars swept across, all the Dao Embryo cultivators felt an uncontrollable surge of violent, bloodthirsty, suspicious, and greedy thoughts growing wildly in their hearts like weeds, and their reason was rapidly collapsing.
"Kill! The treasure is mine!"
"You dare glare at me? Go to hell!"
"Traitor! You actually tried to back down just now!"
……
Anger and roars filled the air. Allies and kinsmen who were fighting side by side just a moment ago now saw each other as mortal enemies, rivals vying for opportunities, or potential traitors.
Swords and blades struck without warning, while magical spells exploded within their own ranks. The already chaotic battlefield instantly transformed into a bloodbath of infighting.
Roars, screams, the clash of magical artifacts, and the tearing of flesh intertwined, causing even those Nascent Soul cultivators to feel agitated, their blood churning, and their magical power becoming somewhat sluggish, as if an invisible calamity and killing intent had invaded their minds.
But with supernatural powers protecting them, they were still able to resist. Seeing that almost all the family cultivators were dead, and even the Dao Embryo cultivators had fallen into madness, these Nascent Soul cultivators turned pale and felt a chill run through their entire bodies.
In just a dozen or so breaths, most of the Dao Embryo cultivators who had completely lost their minds were killed or wounded in a frenzied battle, and some even went directly to kill those Nascent Soul True Persons.
The survivors, covered in blood and riddled with wounds, had only a raging, bloodthirsty killing intent in their eyes. They were completely lost, even screaming, charging at any remaining living beings like madmen.
Faced with these frenzied Dao Embryo cultivators, the aristocratic families' primordial spirits naturally could not let them go unchecked, either using supernatural powers to resist or extricating themselves from the situation.
However, these cultivators affected by the Divine Light of Mars were like maggots clinging to their bones, relentlessly pursuing them until they died.
With a single, massive opening of his mouth, Wu Tian swallowed the thick aura of blood that permeated the battlefield, the fragments of remnant souls that had not yet completely dissipated, and the more than a thousand different colored magic beads containing the essence of different bloodlines that had been extracted from the bodies of those cultivators who had fallen from the Dao realm. As if drawn by an invisible force, they transformed into streams of light that were red, blue, or purple.
His cold pupils swept across the scene. All the cultivators below the Dao Embryo level were dead, and the hundreds of Dao Embryo cultivators who were still alive were fighting each other frantically, even entangled those Nascent Soul True Persons.
Most Yuan Shen True Persons are hesitant to act decisively due to fear of harming others, and are thus constrained in their actions.
Their faces were ashen, and their eyes were filled with fear and terror as they looked at Wu Tian. This ferocious beast was too terrifying; in the midst of such a brutal massacre, it even displayed increasing strength.
Those ordinary cultivators didn't even have the right to make a move in front of him; they all burned to death with a single sweep of his divine light.
Even Dao Embryo cultivators could not resist the eerie divine light and fell into madness and slaughter.
"Damn it, is the ancient ferocious beast Huodou really this terrifying?"
"What should we do now? Should we really kill these people?"
"Try the supernatural method of suppressing the mind."
Many Nascent Soul cultivators were terrified and even considered retreating. Today's ambush has now become a complete joke.
Bai Wenxian, the patriarch of the Bai family, has perished; Lady Zhurong has fled with serious injuries; and the patriarch of the Cao family is being hunted down...
If they don't leave soon, everyone will die when Bai Qian breaks through to the next level.
Upon realizing this, some people no longer hesitated and immediately used their escape techniques to quickly retreat.
"Don't you think it's too late to leave now?"
With a slight thought, Wu Tian felt the Yinghuo Divine Ring above his head humming, and the illusory image of the ancient star Yinghuo slowly rotated, locking onto Li Yunchao, the head of the Li family, who was fleeing towards the outside of Qiyun Mountain.
Within the divine halo, the ancient star phenomenon suddenly flashed with light.
The next moment, Li Yunchao felt a surge of heat and restlessness rush into his mind, causing him to become momentarily disoriented.
There was even a layer of bloody light swirling above his head. He felt as if his insides were burning and he was extremely anxious. The light that had been escaping stopped without him realizing it.
Taking advantage of the moment when his mind was off guard and his supernatural powers were in disarray, Wu Tian, transformed into the Fiend, approached with lightning speed. His tail, burning with blood-red flames, was like a poisonous dragon, slamming down with a destructive shriek.
With a soft "poof," Li Yunchao's protective aura was directly dissipated, and the blood-red light above his head quickly transformed into flames, seeping into his body and then burning him.
"Ah! Ah! Ah!"
He let out an incredibly shrill scream, and fine cracks even appeared on his body, with blood-red flames shining through the cracks in his skin, making people's scalps tingle.
"What's going on?! What kind of fire is this?!"
Only then did Li Yunchao come to his senses, but it was too late. A claw descended from the sky and enveloped his body.
Boom!
Wu Tian slowly retracted his claws. The man's body had already turned into charred ash in the flames, and even his primordial spirit had been burned to ashes, leaving only a blue pearl containing the bloodline of the golden toad.
He swallowed the magic bead in one gulp, feeling as if killing a primordial spirit was as easy as drinking water.
The blessing of the Mars phenomenon not only boosts one's physique and combat power to a new level, but also makes it difficult for even a Nascent Soul cultivator to withstand the illumination of Mars on a single person, causing their mind to briefly fall into chaos.
In this way, they become lambs to the slaughter.
Wu Tian's massive body strode forward, illuminated by the Divine Ring of Mars. This not only greatly amplified his own abilities and weakened and influenced the minds of his enemies, but the illusory image of the ancient star Mars in the center could also, like a vortex, continuously devour the omnipresent killing, chaos, and calamity on the battlefield, turning it into his own power to heal his injuries and restore his mana.
"As expected of a ferocious beast, slaughter, calamity, and chaos only make this kind of beast stronger and more excited..."
He swiftly pursued the fleeing Nascent Soul cultivators, relying on the interference of his divine ring on their state and his own surge in speed and power to often strike with deadly accuracy.
Within ten breaths, he killed two more Nascent Soul cultivators.
Wu Tian felt that the age of the Yinghuo Divine Ring was constantly increasing, and it had now reached 1,600 years, getting closer and closer to 2,000 years.
In particular, the strange phenomenon of the ancient star Mars within the Mars Divine Ring is constantly seizing the remaining power of Mars, and he can even vaguely sense another being that possesses the power of Mars.
"Cao Tiangang, the patriarch of the Cao family?"
Just then, he suddenly looked up at the eastern sky.
Suddenly, a star appeared in the eastern sky, its light shining brightly and radiating an incomparably dazzling brilliance.
"Venus crosses the sky...and stars are visible in the daytime..."
"A killing star shines upon the world, war breaks out, and change is born!"
"Is a new star returning to its rightful place? Has a demon saint condensed the Venus?!"
The old monsters who had been living in seclusion in various places, the elders of sects with long-standing traditions, and the cultivators who were proficient in astrology and divination were all alarmed. Their faces showed horror, some were calculating, some were watching, and some were muttering to themselves, their hearts filled with turbulent waves.
The star that illuminated the sky was none other than Venus, which had disappeared at the end of ancient times. Now, this newly born Venus emitted an incomparably sharp and domineering light, and its starlight scattered across the heavens and earth.
Wu Tian looked towards Bai Qian in the crevice of the Qiyun Mountain canyon, and saw a beam of starlight descend from the sky, enveloping her body.
Like a celestial being, like a god! (End of Chapter)
