Chapter 6361: Everything for the Great Cause
Who would give up this path?
Everyone who encountered it would fight desperately.
Zhen Xian who had escaped the city hovered above the clouds, glaring at the ancient demon with gritted teeth. He muttered under his breath, "Hmph, I want to see how Jiu Chen plans to stop this!"
"Senior Brother, I think that Blood Coagulation Array is very strange. We should be cautious. If it really becomes too difficult, we should ask Master for help. Opportunities like this are rare in a lifetime. Even if our master takes most of the benefits, we can still request help from him once we return to the sect. After all, we haven't transcended yet. I would be satisfied if my life level could maintain a thousandfold," Fu Qing felt that hope was slipping away.
But Zhen Xian didn't think so; instead, he became unusually resolute.
He knew that once his master descended, all the benefits would be gone.
By the time they returned to the sect, there would be a group of fellow disciples, and he might not be able to compete with them.
The ancient demon's essence blood was extremely important; his master needed it too. Even if it wasn't useful to him, it could be exchanged with other powerful beings for treasures he required.
For a transcendent being who had surpassed mortality, their goal was to become an Immortal. How could they abandon their future for the sake of a disciple's prospects?
Even if he pleaded, it would be useless. Once his master descended, merely rescuing him would clear all debts, and there would be no rewards.
Understanding this reality, Zhen Xian was even more determined not to let his master descend, unless he was on the brink of death. Otherwise, he would never summon his master.
If he had the chance to succeed, the essence blood of the two ancient demons and the mysterious power within the blood-red altar would all be his.
At that time, he could directly break through, shatter the void, and return to the sect. In just a few years, he could transcend and become a Grand Existence. With the inheritance of the Divine Eye and his life level, breaking through to Immortal was only a matter of time.
This was the prize worth fighting for, not summoning his master to descend on the spot.
this moment, everyone had similar thoughts- the more they knew, the greedier they became.
Those who were already severely injured in the Divine Aspect Realm were about to lose their lives due to their greed.
The Blood Coagulation Array began to madly absorb the essence blood of the cultivators within the city. This essence blood was only the beginning; the bulk of it was in the blood-red altar.
The blood began to gather around Jiu Chen's towering soul.
With such a massive body, his life level was condensed to five thousandfold. He was the second greediest person present.
The first was the ancient demon.
He intended to turn the entire Crimson Eyes Realm into his own Dao Field, annihilate everyone, and absorb all the essence blood within the blood-red altar.
At this moment, he was absorbing the essence blood of all the mortals in the Eastern Lands.
Anyone caught in the light of his gaze had their flesh instantly shattered, turning into essence blood that flowed into the light and eventually returned to the ancient demon.
Few cared about what the ancient demon was doing.
Everyone had their eyes on the greater treasure.
In fact, they thought the ancient demon was right; once they killed it, they could obtain even more treasures.
In Mangshan County City.
The consciousness of Immortal Jiu Chen appeared in the underwater cave dwelling.
"Now, only the final step remains!" Immortal Jiu Chen stood at the entrance of the cave, not turning back to look at the two figures on the stone bed.
Li Miao gently laid down Lady Yi, stepped back, donned his clothes, and walked to the entrance, his voice trembling slightly as he said, "Immortal Master, I've succeeded!"
This statement was somewhat perplexing, even causing Immortal Jiu Chen to pause in confusion before he understood what Li Miao meant.
Upon taking a closer look at Li Miao, he indeed had succeeded.
Li Miao had once been an ordinary cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage, with a very low level of life essence and soul quality. Even his cultivation was merely the result of accumulating the blood essence of mortals.
Given his frail foundation, reaching the Divine Appearance stage was already difficult; and even if he did, shattering the void to ascend was simply impossible.
Yet, as their final plan unfolded, Li Miao's ambition became evident.
From a mortal emperor, he aspired to walk the path of immortality, a path filled with cruelty.
He had to gradually cleanse his mortal form.
Without Immortal Jiu Chen's guidance, how could he have known so much?
From his cultivation level to his soul, and now to the point where he had extracted the essence
of the Empress, cleansing his mortal body, and acquiring the Pure Human Physique.
This physique was of a high life essence, capable of nurturing the soul.
In fact, compared to a Special Life Form, it wasn't that special.
However, it could be used as a stepping stone.
A mortal in the Nascent Soul stage trying to become a postnatal Special Life Form was
impossible.
It was like a child learning to walk; it needed to be done step by step.
Now, Li Miao could already stand up and walk, and he was walking steadily. So, how far could The be from running?
"All for the grand endeavor, no need to..." Immortal Jiu Chen, feeling gratified as he looked at the current Li Miao, patted his shoulder, wanting to offer some words of comfort but unsure
where to start.
Li Miao nodded slightly, understanding Immortal Jiu Chen's meaning. Forcing a smile, he said, "Immortal Master, rest assured, I know what I want, and I'm clear on the path I will walk. Now that I possess the Pure Physique and have broken through to the peak of the Divine Appearance stage, the only thing left is the Blood Condensation Array. Once it succeeds and two Special Physiques are born, it will be time to ascend!"
"Li Miao, you've never disappointed me. Remember, this is just the first step. Our world is vast, and the Ancient Domain is merely one among the myriad worlds!" Immortal Jiu Chen couldn't help but sigh, recalling the days of old, which were dull and devoid of hope.
Now, when he looked up, the sky was filled with stars, each one a beacon of hope.
Thus, he had the thought of splitting, eventually separating from his original body. Now, having reached this point, he was finally about to succeed.
Li Miao also felt gratitude in his heart. From a young prince, he had come this far. No one understood him, he was dethroned, but instead of anger, he felt that the world didn't
comprehend him.
Only Immortal Jiu Chen understood his heart.
That was ambition.
The two of them had fulfilled each other.
Back then, the consciousness of Immortal Jiu Chen was very weak, accidentally taken from the Northern Ice Fields by the ancestor of the Tang Dynasty, and later attached to a toy, eventually discovered by Li Miao, leading to their master-disciple bond.
In truth, both of them had risen from the depths of the mundane world, yet they could now
ascend to the heavens.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
If not for the countless mortals they had slain, it could have been a beautiful tale.
After their reflections, the two returned to the matter at hand.
At this moment, the ancient demon was devouring billions of people from the Eastern Lands.
Once it finished, it would descend upon Mangshan County City.
Within the city was a grand array, with Immortal Jiu Chen present.
There was naturally nothing to fear.
But after years of meticulous planning, they already had a flawless plan.
The ancient demon was not a fixed variable, so they naturally didn't bet everything on
themselves; they had backup plans.
"Let's go to the city wall!" Immortal Jiu Chen said, and his consciousness vanished.
Li Miao glanced back at the figure on the stone bed, took a deep breath, and walked out of the
cave dwelling.
In Mangshan City, atop the northern city wall.
Zhang Xiansheng and the others stood there, staring at the ancient demon, no longer thinking
of escape. Their physical bodies had already been absorbed by the Blood Condensation Array; now, only their souls remained. If not for the Dispersed Death Qi Array, nothing would have been left of
them.
