Chapter 170: The calamity that destroyed the immortals, the fourth level of the mortal realm
"What the hell is this?"
"Let me go, asshole, let me go!"
"How come there are so many strange tentacles coming out of the immortal gate of ascension? I don't want to accompany you anymore. I'm going to run away first."
At this moment, the immortal gate, which was surrounded by immortal energy and emitting golden light of ascension, no longer looked sacred at all.
Strange tentacles twisted and extended from it, attacking the powerful cultivators around it.
The strange tentacles directly pulled everyone into the immortal gate, like a hideous and terrifying giant mouth of the abyss swallowing all living things.
For a while, no one envied Jian Wuji's ascension anymore. Their hearts were filled with fear, and they only hated that their parents had given birth to them without two legs.
Those tentacles contained extremely terrifying power. They looked soft and boneless, but were actually extremely tough.
Even if a strong man in the seventh realm attacked the tentacles with all his strength, it would be difficult to hurt them in the slightest. Once they were caught, they would have no power to resist and could only be dragged into the immortal gate.
People with sharp eyes and careful minds can easily find that those tentacles seem to contain extremely terrible neurotoxins. Even a strong man at the peak of the seventh realm will be subdued in an instant and lose all ability to resist.
And they seem to have a 'special liking' for the strong, especially those cultivators whose realm has reached the seventh realm or above, who are given special care.
Lai Yang was naturally no exception and received special attention, fighting with those strange tentacles.
The tentacles' poison has no effect on Lai Yang, so he doesn't have to worry even if he gets close to them.
Lai Yang felt heavy in his heart. He had seen these strange insect tentacles on the road to immortality. They could not be said to be similar, but only to be exactly the same.
However, the Zerg tentacles extending from the Immortal Gate are far more terrifying and powerful than those on the Road to Immortality.
Lai Yang knew very well that this would not work, as these Zerg tentacles were capturing the strong men of the Wenxian Continent.
Now that the Wenxian Sect is the closest to the Ascension Gate, it will be the first to be hit, and there is a fear that there will be a crisis of extinction.
"Close the door." Lai Yang looked at the strange fairy gate in the sky, and suddenly his heart moved. He rushed towards the strange fairy gate with a top-grade spirit sword in his hand.
The next moment, the astonishing sword energy that could cut through the sky and split the earth rushed towards the Immortal Gate, cutting off all the Zerg tentacles that stretched out from the Immortal Gate.
The cultivators who were caught by the Zerg's tentacles were then freed, but due to the neurotoxins, they were unable to exert their strength and fell to the ground one by one in free fall.
Lai Yang didn't care about them. His sword energy formed a defensive network like a tide, sealing the Zerg tentacles inside the Immortal Gate. Then he relied on his own strength to forcibly close the Immortal Gate again, and used the power of heaven and earth to set up an array and impose powerful seals.
Seeing this, everyone showed excitement and joy on their faces and shouted loudly: "It worked, the door was closed again, we are saved!"
However, before they could be happy for too long, the blue sky was suddenly torn apart by a mysterious and overbearing force, and a huge space crack appeared.
Buzz!
Countless terrifying eyes looked down at the Wenxian Continent through the cracks in space, with indifferent looks as if they were looking at the livestock they raised.
This scene was seen by countless people in the Wenxian Continent. They were so frightened that their faces turned pale, their legs trembled, and they didn't have the slightest thought of resistance in their hearts.
There were even countless people kneeling on the ground in fear, kowtowed heavily, as if they were worshiping gods.
Compared with the huge space crack in the sky, the immortal gate through which everyone ascended was like a small window.
They finally blocked the windows and thought they had prevented the external danger, but the other party chose to break in directly and aggressively.
The power of both sides is completely not on the same level.
Under the gaze of those pairs of eyes, countless negative emotions were spreading wildly.
Many powerful sects with profound heritage retreated into small worlds without hesitation to hide themselves and protect themselves, hoping to safely escape this disaster.
Finally, the pairs of terrifying eyes above the sky all looked at Lai Yang who was standing in the void. There seemed to be countless emotions surging in their eyes, but more of them were excitement and excitement, just like a person who had been hungry for a long time, and suddenly a delicious and sumptuous meal appeared in front of him, and endless greed was revealed in his eyes.
The moment his eyes met those of the space crack, Lai Yang felt that a vast and overbearing spiritual force far beyond the Seventh Realm was madly impacting his sea of consciousness.
That is to say, Lai Yang's spiritual power has already broken through the seventh realm and entered the eighth realm of mortal immortals.
Otherwise, this blow might have caused his mind to collapse.
Lai Yang stood proudly with a sword in his hand, his pair of dark and deep eyes staring coldly at the mysterious existence above the sky.
Judging from the aura emanating from the other party, it must be a being above the eighth realm, or at least a mortal immortal being in the late eighth realm.
Otherwise, it would be impossible for the other party to erupt with such a tyrannical pressure and tear open the sky of the Wenxian Continent with bare hands. The real fairyland might be behind the space crack.
But for those who ascend, entering the fairyland does not mean becoming an immortal and living forever, but rather death!
The person who truly controls the Wenxian Continent has the ability to break through the boundary at any time, but he has never done so.
As for the reason, it seems very simple, because there is no need at all!
At this moment, Lai Yang's mind flashed with what Lan Qingxian had said. Her master left them a one-word message after ascending to heaven: escape!
So this is really the case.
Ascension is an outright scam targeting the strong men of the Wenxian Continent.
Judging from the situation, the endings of those who ascended in the past were probably not going to be any better.
Lai Yang's heart sank, and he subconsciously used the system detection function on the crack in the sky.

Without a doubt, it is the most powerful existence Lai Yang has ever encountered, and all of its attribute values have broken through the level of the eighth realm.
On the other hand, Lai Yang's own attribute panel introduction:

Lai Yang has been suppressing his own realm.
There is no need for that now. Once they fight in the Wenxian Continent, the entire Wenxian Continent will probably be destroyed in an instant.
Lai Yang sighed, looked back and asked in the direction of the Immortal Sect.
Chu Xiao and the others were extremely nervous, clenched their fists, and looked up at his figure.
"What a pity! I originally wanted to stay in the Questioning Immortal Continent for a while longer, but now I'm completely exposed. I can't stay here any longer."
"Well, I will go to the fairyland to explore the way for you."
As soon as he finished speaking, the aura around Lai Yang exploded, and he no longer suppressed his own strength.
An extremely terrifying aura spread out, and even the space around Lai Yang showed signs of collapse.
Immediately afterwards, Lai Yang shot out like a flash of lightning and rushed straight into the space crack.
Seeing this scene, Chu Xiao and others' faces changed drastically.
"Sir (Master)!"
The next moment, an extremely vast new immortal power erupted from behind the space crack.
Everyone felt a familiar breath from the vast immortal power. It was Lai Yang. He had entered the realm of mortal immortal!
Afterwards, the space crack above the sky of the Wenxian Continent was restored by Lai Yang's power, and everything returned to calm as if nothing had happened.
"Master has gone to the fairyland!"
"He went to deal with that kind of opponent alone, and we couldn't help him at all. Facing such an existence, we are no better than ants."
"Master will definitely win. I believe he will win. What we need to do now is to settle everything in the sect and wait for Master to come back."
"You're right. Now is not the time to be sad. We also have things we should do."
…
On the other side, there is a battlefield outside the Wenxian Continent.
Lai Yang crossed the space crack, and his realm broke through the last thin barrier at the same time. Suddenly, he was like a dry field that had long seen sweet dew, swallowing up the energy of the fairyland. His movement was so great that in the blink of an eye, he drained out the spiritual energy of the heaven and earth within a radius of hundreds of thousands of miles, and he officially stepped into the mortal fairyland in one fell swoop.
Chongzhu witnessed this scene with his own eyes, and the many insect eyes on his head all showed expressions of extreme shock.
It had never seen any human being who ascended from the Wenxian Continent with a talent as terrifying and monstrous as his.
The strongest ascender who had ever broken through to become a mortal immortal could only absorb spiritual energy from the heaven and earth within a hundred miles and transform it into his own immortal energy when he broke through.
The noise made by this guy's breakthrough was so terrifying, it was almost as powerful as any powerful creature in the real fairyland.
After the breakthrough, Lai Yang gave Chongzhu a sense of danger, but its instinct in the face of danger made it not rush to take action itself.
After all, this is his territory. Not to mention dealing with a human who has just broken through the eighth realm, even if a strong man in the early stage of the True Immortal Realm comes, he dares to fight him.
"It's time for dinner, kids."
Following the call of Chongzhu.
In an instant, tens of thousands of Zerg monsters emerged.
Buzz buzz buzz!!!
The sight of the densely packed insect monsters of all shapes and sizes was enough to make Lai Yang's trypophobia worse.
Lai Yang frowned, glanced at the Gate of Ascension behind him, and immediately destroyed the Gate of Ascension leading to the Tongwenxian Continent with a sword.
Seeing Lai Yang destroying the Gate of Ascension, Chongzhu did not feel distressed. It had a premonition that as long as it could eat the human in front of it, it would be of great benefit to it.
It's just a useless netherworld plane. If it's lost, it's lost. It can create as many planes like this as it wants.
"Kill him."
The will of Chongzhu appeared in the heads of all the insect monsters in an instant.
After receiving the order, countless Zerg monsters rushed towards Lai Yang like fearless warriors.
Lai Yang's expression remained unchanged, and the sharp sword light seemed to weave a large net in space, killing dozens of Zerg monsters in the blink of an eye.
The system attribute bonus notification sounds suddenly rang out one after another——
[Basic Attributes +1]
[Mana +1]
[Basic Attributes +1]
However, these dozens of Zerg monsters are nothing to the endless Zerg army. The opponent obviously wants to use the advantage of Zerg numbers to exhaust his strength.
It can be seen that it is not stupid and even knows how to use the insect swarm tactics.
The insect monsters have extremely strong reproduction capabilities, and their huge numbers are their most terrifying feature.
Faced with this endless sea of insects, even a powerful person from the true fairyland would end up dying in the northwest and eventually become food for the Zerg if he was trapped in it.
But for Lai Yang who has a plug-in, what he fears least is the number of opponents. The more enemies there are, the happier he is.
Although killing weak Zerg monsters cannot trigger the system points 100%, as the saying goes, quantitative change leads to qualitative change.
Looking around, the number of the insect army seemed endless. To Lai Yang, it was like an endless supply of experience. It was so cool!
Lai Yang held a sword in his right hand, and purple lightning flashed and shot out from his left hand. His pair of black eyes as deep as the stars showed an unprecedented fiery fighting spirit.
Wake up, it's hunting time.
Totally crazy!
Lai Yang vented his own power unscrupulously. The space in the fairy world was far from comparable to the space in the Wenxian Continent.
No matter how he vents his power, he doesn't have to worry about accidentally breaking the plane and triggering a series of destructive chain reactions.
Chongzhu hid at the back of the sea of insects, staring at Lai Yang hungrily. It did not expect that Lai Yang would not flee in the face of its army, but would spare no efforts to kill it.
He will not be able to hold on for long if he squanders his strength like this. When he is weak, it will be the chance for it to devour him.
If he chose to escape, with his talent and background, there might be a chance for him to escape from its clutches.
Little did he know that Chongzhu thought Lai Yang was stupid, and Lai Yang also thought it was a big fool and gave him a lot of experience packs for nothing.
Listening to the system prompt sound echoing in the depths of his consciousness, Lai Yang's heart was filled with smiles. His physical body was constantly improving.
For strong people of their level, if the strength of both sides is equal, it is common for them to fight for several years or even decades without a clear winner.
Lai Yang was surrounded by Chong Zhu's army of insects. He seemed to be imprisoned, but he was actually enjoying the killing.
However, Lai Yang was cautious. He was worried that Chong Zhu would notice something and attack him in advance, so he deliberately let his breath become weaker slowly.
Lai Yang disguised himself very well and Chong Zhu didn't notice anything at first.
It was not until the number of Zerg monsters under its control was reduced by nearly 30% under Lai Yang's command that Chongzhu realized that something was wrong.
Such a high-intensity battle would have worn even a strong man in the early stage of the True Immortal Realm to death.
Lai Yang is a human who has just broken through the mortal realm. How did he persist until now? He must be hiding a shocking secret!
Chongzhu looked at Lai Yang with increasingly fiery eyes. No matter what secrets the other person had, they would soon become his.
In order to safely eat this damn human race, it lost hundreds of thousands of Zerg. After that, it would have to eat a dozen creatures from the mortal world to make up for it. I hope the other party will not let it down.
After catching the human in front of him, Chongzhu decided that he must savor the other person's taste carefully.
Only in this way can we justify its loss and hard work.
Little did they know that Lai Yang's physical cultivation had already broken through to the fourth level of the mortal immortal realm and became invincible.
