Terran Guardian - Chapter 3697

Chapter 3675 Chaotic Territory

A hundred Heavenly Fiend Immortal Pills!

A top-grade Emperor Immortal Artifact!

In Shen Changqing’s eyes, these things were insignificant compared to the Chaos Spirit Embryo.

To make a horse run, you must feed it.

If these innate demon gods are to be driven around without any benefit, they will ultimately be unwilling to serve wholeheartedly.

His abundant rewards are intended to show the other innate demon gods that as long as they serve him diligently, they will receive all the due benefits.

After all, many innate demon gods are secretly connected, and even if Shen Changqing doesn’t say anything, the other innate demon gods will know about these rewards.

Then,

Shen Changqing looked towards another part of the void.

There,

chaotic immortal light swirled.

Profound Daoist charm permeated all directions.

“When chaos first opened, Daoist charm arose naturally… In ten years at the shortest, a hundred years at the longest, this Chaos Spirit Embryo should be born!”

Records about the Chaos Spirit Embryo surfaced in Shen Changqing’s mind; the birth of such a treasure was always accompanied by extraordinary phenomena.

The strange phenomenon in the chaotic void before him was identical to the recorded phenomenon of the Chaotic Spirit Embryo.

Treasures of this level were naturally born from the chaos of heaven and earth.

Therefore, their emergence was always accompanied by unusual phenomena.

The appearance of such phenomena

meant that the Chaotic Spirit Embryo’s gestation had reached a crucial stage.

This process wouldn’t be long,

at most a hundred years.   Shen Changqing could certainly wait

that long .   At the same time   , he looked at all sides of the chaos. The number of powerful figures arriving after hearing the news was steadily increasing.   However, so far, Shen Changqing hadn’t seen any familiar faces.   ”It seems the news of the Chaotic Spirit Embryo’s appearance has spread to a limited extent. I wonder if most of these arriving powerful figures are from the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm, or from the chaos itself—”   Shen Changqing’s eyes flickered slightly. The Seven Profound Divine Tower was now continuously collecting the numerous auras in the void.   So far,   he had collected the auras of no less than twenty half-saints.   As for those at the Immortal Emperor realm, there were even more.   Some of the Immortal Emperors exuded an aura that Shen Changqing found somewhat familiar.   These Immortal Emperors   were all Fallen Immortals.   However—   Shen Changqing only gave the Fallen Immortals a barely perceptible glance before averting his gaze.   Fallen Immortals may seem powerful, but this is relative.   Fallen Immortals   are essentially cultivators who cannot achieve immortality and are unwilling to die when their lifespan is exhausted. Therefore   , they cultivate forbidden techniques to prolong their lives. Thus,   the strongest Fallen Immortal is generally only at the Immortal Emperor level.   If they could reach the Half-Saint realm and attain immortality, they wouldn’t need to become Fallen Immortals.   If the Five Signs of Decay of a Half-Saint is a test from Heaven, then the Heavenly Punishment faced by Fallen Immortals is Heaven’s aversion to such beings.   Therefore,   Fallen Immortals usually hide in numerous forbidden zones, using the power of these zones to evade Heaven’s observation. Those   Fallen Immortals who can truly roam the world generally possess some means of concealing themselves from Heaven.   Otherwise,   these Fallen Immortals would inevitably die if exposed to Heaven. The reason for   this   is that Fallen Immortals are beings who defy the order of Heaven.   For ordinary cultivators, Fallen Immortals are terrifying to even mention; their mere appearance often results in the bloodshed of an entire immortal realm, causing widespread devastation.   However, for true powerhouses, Fallen Immortals are like rats in a gutter, utterly insignificant.   Not only Shen Changqing   , but other Longevity Half-Saints in the void also disregarded these Fallen Immortals.   After a long while,   Shen Changqing glanced at the continent, then found an ancient star and directly established an Immortal Abode on it, awaiting the birth of the Chaos Spirit Embryo.   Now, some of the other arriving powerhouses followed Shen Changqing’s example, establishing Abodes on stars, while others directly established Abodes in the void as their dwelling places.   All cultivators were waiting, waiting for the moment the Chaos Spirit Embryo would truly be born.   Shen Changqing paid little attention to the commotion outside; he was currently calm and focused on adjusting his own state.   Once the Chaos Spirit Embryo was born, a great battle was inevitable.   Before that…   What Shen Changqing needed to do was adjust his condition to its peak to prepare for the upcoming battle.   Fifty years later.   A familiar aura appeared, and Shen Changqing opened his eyes, looking towards the void.   There, a cultivator tore through the void and arrived. The other party was dressed in a black Daoist robe, his pale face devoid of color, and his eyes were sinister as he scanned all directions in the void.   Many Immortal Emperors were stared at by him, and a chill ran through their hearts. They hurriedly looked away, not daring to meet his gaze.   ”Yin Jiuquan of the Yellow Spring Dao Sect—”   Shen Changqing’s eyes flickered slightly. After fifty years of waiting, a familiar face had finally arrived.   He was naturally not unfamiliar with this person.   However, it was clear that   Yin Jiuquan had not discovered his presence.   After all, there were many Immortal Emperors present, and the other party could not possibly focus his attention on the other Immortal Emperors. Only the other Half-Saints were the existences that Yin Jiuquan was wary of.   After glancing at Yin Jiuquan,   Shen Changqing withdrew his gaze.   He was not afraid of Yin Jiuquan during the battle of Tianzhu Mansion, let alone now.   Compared to that battle, Shen Changqing’s strength has improved significantly.   Looking at Yin Jiuquan , however   , he is still only a First Tribulation Half-Saint.   Given the difference in their strength, Shen Changqing has no reason to fear him.   On the other side,   Yin Jiuquan looks around the void, his expression slightly grim.   ”Things are getting a bit tricky!”

The emergence of the Chaos Embryo attracted too many powerful figures. Although Yin Jiuquan was confident in his strength, seizing treasures from so many powerful individuals wouldn’t be easy.

But there was no other way.

Such an extraordinary phenomenon was astonishing.

It was impossible to truly conceal it.

For Yin Jiuquan, what he needed to do now was wait, wait for the right opportunity.

With so many powerful figures around, he might have a chance to snatch treasures from their jaws.

Thinking of this

, Yin Jiuquan’s expression returned to its indifferent state. He glanced at the various directions in the void and casually created a Daoist temple as a temporary refuge.

This time, he was the only one from the Yellow Springs Dao Sect to come.

He had already anticipated that the emergence of the Chaos Embryo would attract many powerful figures.

Within the vast Yellow Springs Dao Sect, he was the only one who had reached the Half-Saint realm.

Other cultivators hadn’t reached that level, and even if they came, they wouldn’t be able to play a significant role.

And Yin Jiuquan hadn’t noticed Shen Changqing’s presence from beginning to end.

Just as Shen Changqing had thought.

Numerous Immortal Emperors filled the chaotic void, but Yin Jiuquan never took them seriously. The only ones truly worthy of his attention were those at the Half-Saint realm.

Immortal Emperors

naturally wouldn’t attract much attention.

With Yin Jiuquan’s arrival, other powerful figures appeared one after another.

Meanwhile,

the previously quiet void grew increasingly tense.

One day,

the void exploded.

Two Half-Saints suddenly clashed, their powerful auras sweeping across all directions, drawing the attention of many powerful figures.

“Old Crimson Bone Ghost, you annihilated my Hundred Mile Immortal Clan! Today, I will make you pay for your blood debt!”

a white-robed cultivator roared. As he spoke, the Great Dao swept across the sky, its supreme sword energy cleaving through billions of miles of void, its overwhelming killing intent seemingly capable of devouring everything.

His opponent was an old man in a crimson robe, his expression equally cold, his eyes filled with chilling intent as he looked at the former.

“So you’re a remnant of the Baili Immortal Clan. If you hadn’t shown yourself, perhaps you could have preserved a part of the Baili Immortal Clan’s bloodline.

Now that you dare to appear, your Baili Immortal Clan’s bloodline will be completely exterminated from this day forward!”

Boom—

In the time it took to speak, the two sides had already exchanged blows no less than a million times, the power unleashed by their collisions sending chills down one’s spine.

“Baili Chen of the Baili Immortal Clan… I never expected this person to have such a deep grudge against the Crimson Bone Venerable!”

“Back then, the Baili Immortal Clan was wiped out overnight, and there are various accounts, but now it seems this is the one who destroyed the Baili Immortal Clan!”

“Tsk tsk, a blood feud that will never end, looks like there’s going to be a good show.”

Many powerful figures recognized the identities of the two, their faces showing interest.

To them, no matter who won, they would ultimately eliminate a Half-Saint.

This way,

when the Chaos Spirit Embryo is born, there will be one less opponent.

Of course,

it would be even better if both sides could be severely injured.

Many Half-Saints at this moment had hidden glints in their eyes, clearly intending to sit back and watch the tigers fight.

Within a star-studded immortal abode, Shen Changqing also gazed at the battle unfolding in the void.

Judging from the auras detected by the Seven Profound Divine Tower, both individuals had reached the Three Tribulations Half-Saint realm.

Such strength was naturally formidable.

“The Baili Immortal Clan…”

Shen Changqing mused to himself, overhearing the conversation among other powerful figures in the void.

Unsurprisingly,

this immortal clan was likely a force from the Chaos.

He could make this judgment because the emergence of the Chaos Spirit Embryo had attracted powerful figures from the surrounding Chaos.

Since the other party recognized Baili Chen and the Crimson Bone Venerable, it meant that the latter two were powerful figures from this Chaos.   Shen Changqing possessed considerable knowledge

of Chaos .   Most of the Chaos was chaotic and disordered.   However, in some places, many forces joined forces to suppress a region of the void, using it as their dwelling place.   Therefore,   some forces within the Chaos were naturally familiar with each other.   The reason for this was that Chaos held too many unknowns; even a Half-Saint roaming freely in Chaos might encounter insurmountable dangers.   If one could establish a fixed chaotic territory, traveling within it would be much safer.   Therefore,   these territories could largely be considered de facto safe zones.   Of course,   the term “safe zone” is only relative.   It refers to places where one wouldn’t have to worry about sudden attacks from chaotic beasts or accidentally straying into dangerous forbidden zones.   However, these places are not absolutely safe.   Battles between factions and ambushes between cultivators occur frequently.   Without sufficient strength and a powerful background, traveling through these chaotic territories is fraught with danger.
