Chapter 3804 Many thanks to the sect leader for saving my life

"boom!"

In the chaotic void, a primordial being bled profusely, its body torn apart by another primordial being.

As a large amount of blood poured down, the latter let out a deafening roar.

That instant.

It seemed as if some divine secret had been revealed from the depths of the universe.

His cultivation level, which was originally at the half-step Ancient Immortal Realm, was broken through almost instantly.

There was no heavenly tribulation whatsoever!

There were no setbacks whatsoever!

With cultivation breakthroughs, everything else falls into place naturally.

"really!"

"By killing other innate beings, we can plunder their power of creation!"

This scene naturally fell into Shen Changqing's eyes.

The thirteen innate beings of the second universe fought each other, but so far, three of them have perished, becoming nourishment for the other innate beings.

As other innate beings perish, the being that slays them also becomes a source of their creation power.

Such is the workings of nature.

It can not only improve one's cultivation level, but also enhance one's bloodline power.

Shen Changqing could clearly feel that after receiving such a blessing from heaven and earth, the bloodline of that innate being became even stronger.

To know.

Even though they are all born with the same bloodline, there are differences in strength.

It's like the difference between a primordial demon god and an immortal demon god.

Both are congenital bloodlines.

But the former was born a Celestial Emperor, while the latter was born a Half-Saint.

This.

That's the difference.

The same reason.

The same is true for the innate beings in the second universe today.

By slaying other innate beings, one can obtain the power of creation from them to nourish oneself, thereby refining one's own bloodline.

If one of the innate beings could kill the remaining twelve innate beings, the opponent might become stronger than the Primordial One of the First Universe.

after all.

As the only innate being in the first universe, Yuan Chu was a being who embodied the creation of a whole universe.

But in reality, the fortune to give birth to one innate being is destined to be far less than the fortune to give birth to thirteen innate beings.

and so.

If a primordial being in the second universe could slay the other twelve primordial beings and gather all the creations of primordial beings into one's own body, then it would be extraordinary.

However, judging from the current situation, it is not an easy thing to truly kill all innate beings and gather all the creations into one person.

Just then, Shen Changqing looked towards another universe.

There.

And life is gradually emerging.

After years of nurturing, although the Twelve Heavens have not recovered much, the universe has begun to regain its vitality.

Shen Changqing watched the changes in various universes with a calm and undisturbed mind.

-

the other side.

Inside a secret palace, Xiao Ling stepped inside, constantly observing his surroundings with his divine sense, his expression extremely cautious.

He never dared to be careless about this semi-saint secret realm.

Since entering the secret realm, Xiao Ling has encountered numerous dangers.

Among them are attacks from ferocious beasts that live here, as well as remnants of the Great Dao restrictions, which can easily obliterate ancient immortals.

along the way.

If Xiao Ling hadn't been careful enough, he would have perished several times over.

now.

Upon entering this grand hall, Xiao Ling dared not be careless in the slightest.

In his view, the main hall was empty and desolate, while the walls of the surrounding buildings were covered with carvings of various things.

However, Xiao Ling could not figure out the meaning behind these portraits after observing them for a while.

finally.

His gaze fell on the center of the main hall.

There.

There was a bead, about the size of an adult's head, surrounded by purple mist.

"treasure!"

The moment Xiao Ling saw the purple bead, a corresponding thought popped into his mind.

Even so, Xiao Ling did not directly take the purple bead. Instead, he carefully approached the purple bead, used his divine sense to examine it, and only after confirming that there were no remaining Great Dao restrictions did he reach out to grab the purple bead.

next moment.

"boom!"

A terrifying power of divine thought suddenly erupted from it, and before Xiao Ling could react, it began to erode his sea of ​​consciousness.

This sudden turn of events caused Xiao Ling's expression to change drastically.

At the same time.

A chilling laugh echoed in his mind.

"Hehehe, I've waited in vain for billions of years, and now I finally have my chance? Hand over your body obediently, and you'll be spared some pain—"

The Celestial Emperor was overjoyed. Under his divine sense, he could tell that although this cultivator was only at the Ancient Immortal Realm, his foundation was extremely solid, and he also possessed powerful bloodline strength.

This physical body is practically tailor-made for me.

If I could completely possess it, not only would it be impossible for me to return to my former peak, but it might even be possible to go further.

now.

After years of waiting, the result was finally in sight, and even the Celestial Emperor Qiong Sheng could not help but be excited.

As for the possibility of failing to possess someone's body, he didn't care at all.

joke.

As a dignified Immortal Emperor, possessing the body of an ancient immortal would be an easy task; there was no reason for him to fail.

Even if the opponent has a strong foundation, they are only at the initial stage of Ancient Immortal.

at this point.

The Celestial Emperor Qiong Sheng had already seen through it all.

This is the fundamental reason why he took direct action.

If the opponent's cultivation level were even slightly higher, reaching the level of a half-step Immortal Emperor, the Celestial Emperor Qiong Sheng would not act rashly.

the reason is simple.

His divine soul had been worn down by the years and was far from its peak. Although he was more than capable of suppressing a half-step Immortal Emperor, he might still fail if he faced some top geniuses.

However, if facing a cultivator at the initial stage of Ancient Immortal, that would not be a big problem.

however.

Just as the Celestial Emperor was about to seize Xiao Ling's body, a celestial sword trembled within Xiao Ling's sea of ​​consciousness, and a terrifying and domineering divine power suddenly erupted, instantly crushing towards the former.

"No……!!!"

The Celestial Emperor Qiong Sheng was deeply shaken. His previous smugness vanished instantly, replaced by utter horror.

He wanted to escape!

But it was too late.

This power is domineering and terrifying; if he were at his peak, perhaps there would be a chance to resist it.

However, now, his own spiritual power is severely damaged, making it impossible for him to withstand even the slightest resistance.

and.

This divine power was extremely domineering, suppressing the entire sea of ​​consciousness. No matter how much the Celestial Emperor struggled, he could not escape.

finally.

This divine thought pressed down, and the soul of the Celestial Emperor Qiong was crushed bit by bit under the crushing force, and then completely vanished into nothingness.

In his final moments, the Celestial Emperor Qiong Sheng had only one thought in his mind.

Great!

……

As this thought arose, the ancient immortal emperor's soul completely dissipated.

Until this moment.

Xiao Lingcai snapped out of his shock.

He looked at the immortal sword in his sea of ​​consciousness, a look of relief on his face.

"Heavenly Punishment!"

This is a supreme treasure bestowed upon me by that sect leader, a half-step Emperor Immortal artifact.

These treasures had been with him for many years, and even after he obtained the superior-grade Emperor Immortal Artifact, the Purple Thunder Sword Pill, he still did not abandon Tianxing.

After all, for him, the Heavenly Punishment was not just a half-step Emperor Immortal artifact, but also the sect leader's recognition of him.

and so.

Xiao Ling would naturally not abandon the Heavenly Punishment.

What he didn't expect was that this treasure would save his life at a crucial moment.

It's obvious without even thinking that the burst of divine power was the power left behind by Shen Changqing.

If it weren't for this power erupting, Xiao Ling had no doubt that he would have been completely possessed by that unfamiliar Immortal Emperor.

but.

It was at this moment that...

Xiao Ling felt the pure divine soul power in his sea of ​​consciousness and almost instinctively activated the cultivation techniques from his memories.

This spiritual power was like a powerful tonic, causing Xiao Ling's spiritual cultivation to rise steadily.

……

Mid-stage Ancient Immortal!

Ancient Fairy Queen's Steps!

……

After Xiao Ling fully digested this power, his soul had already stepped into the peak of the Ancient Immortal realm.

not only that.

He plundered all the memories of that unfamiliar Immortal Emperor.

Although these memories were incomplete, Xiao Ling still managed to glimpse two Immortal Emperor divine abilities from them.

"This disciple thanks the sect master for saving my life!"

Xiao Ling looked grateful and summoned Tian Xing to bow respectfully to him.

Xiao Ling couldn't help but be excited.

This time, not only did he resolve the trouble of a Celestial Emperor trying to possess his body, but he was also able to transform the opponent's divine soul power into his own, helping his own divine soul to step into the peak of the Ancient Immortal realm.

To know.

Cultivating one's spirit and soul is difficult.

Although Xiao Ling had other opportunities and was fortunate enough to obtain a cultivation technique for the soul, his soul power had only remained at the initial stage of the Ancient Immortal realm for many years.

Unexpectedly.

This time, refining the divine soul power of the Celestial Emperor Qiong Sheng will allow me to ascend to the heavens in one step.

The divine soul at the summit of the ancient immortals!

Although his cultivation level was still at the initial stage of Ancient Immortal, Xiao Ling could clearly feel that he was much stronger than before.

of course.

Such opportunities are irreplaceable.

After all, refining the souls of others for one's own use is easy to cause memory confusion if done frequently, leading to demonic possession.

It was only because the divine soul of the Celestial Emperor Qiong Sheng was obliterated by the power contained in the Heavenly Punishment, and all the will of the Celestial Emperors was extinguished, that he was able to refine it easily. Otherwise, Xiao Ling was well aware of the consequences of forcibly refining the divine soul of a Celestial Emperor.

Suppressing all his thoughts, Xiao Ling put Tianxing back into his sea of ​​consciousness before looking at the purple bead in front of him.

"Soul-Nourishing Pearl!"

Having obtained the fragmented memories of the Celestial Emperor Qiong Sheng, he already knew the name of this treasure.

Soul-Nourishing Pearl!

Gu Mingqi's meaning.

This is to nourish the spirit and soul.

When a cultivator's soul falls into a Soul Nourishing Pearl, it can be nurtured by the treasure. Even after the passage of time, it can retain the power of the soul to the greatest extent possible, preventing it from completely dissipating and annihilating.

This is why the soul of the Celestial Emperor Qiong Sheng was able to survive for many years.

This kind of thing is of little significance to Xiao Ling.

But he was just as aware of the importance of the Soul-Nourishing Pearl.

Just because I can't use these treasures doesn't mean other cultivators can't. Taking them out could at least fetch a good price.

Immediately.

Xiao Ling then put away the Soul Nourishing Pearl, and carefully examined the main hall with his divine sense. After confirming that nothing was missing, he shook his head helplessly.

"It seems that apart from the hidden danger of the Celestial Emperor Qiongsheng, there is no other opportunity to leave this great hall!"

A thought fell.

Xiao Ling then turned and left. (End of Chapter)
