Chapter 682 The Theory of the Boundary Sea: Extraterrestrial Beings [Insect God Race]
Just then.
The communication jade talisman of the Mighty True Demon King Yue Zhenxiao buzzed. After Wang Yu answered the call, he agreed to the other party's request for a meeting, presumably because the other party knew more about the Demon Realm Trials than he did.
As far as he knew, the last Demon Refining Domain trial was 1,300 years ago, and none of the cultivators currently active in the Demon Refining Domain knew about it.
Yue Zhenxiao could know that it was possible that he had joined a certain demonic lineage.
Wang Yu was preparing to set off.
The message from the Demon King arrived just in time, along with the old demon Wuyan, whom he had met before. Of course, he should now be called the Wuyan King. It was this guy who achieved great things late in life and rose to prominence.
Of the two new kings, neither Chi Haijun nor Minglingzi pledged allegiance to Yue Zhenxiao or Meiguwang. Instead, they cultivated on their own, much like Wang Yu, who was accustomed to going it alone.
After receiving numerous messages, Wang Yu decided to go to Yue Zhenxiao's place first. Yue Zhenxiao's injuries had almost fully recovered by now, judging from the condition of a body cultivator.
What doesn't kill me makes me stronger!
Even if they haven't broken through to the Dao Integration stage, they should have already condensed the Essence Flower, completed the cultivation of the unity of spirit and body, and possessed an immortal physique.
He and Lao Yue were both practitioners of the dual path.
The basic levels of spiritual attainment are all the same, only the focus differs due to different body-refining techniques, but some fundamental abilities are identical.
Look at the title... Mighty True Demon King!
I imagine he has achieved even greater accomplishments in the Law of Power than I do, so we could have a discussion and exchange of ideas, which would be mutually beneficial.
And so it was.
In the blink of an eye, Wang Yu traversed space and instantly arrived at the entrance of the Laoyue Palace. He "familiarly" pushed the door open and entered. At this moment, the Black Spring King and the Evil Beast King had already arrived.
These two, especially the latter, were people Wang Yu was wary of.
As a result, when Yu Jianzhen lured the alien spies to take action last time, he had already reached the Holy Ring City, but no one betrayed him, which shows that the probability of a traitor appearing in one of the Ten Kings' positions is extremely low.
It wasn't as bad as he imagined.
The four of them gathered together, and Wang Yu's arrival made Yue Zhenxiao laugh heartily: "Brother Wuyou, I haven't properly thanked you for what happened last time."
"polite."
Wang Yu greeted the others, found a seat and sat down comfortably, then asked directly, "Brother Yue, do you know anything about this Demon Realm Trial?"
Yue Zhenxiao sighed: "Yes, since Brother Wuyou is in such a hurry, let's talk about this matter first. The so-called Demon Realm Trial is a killing trial when the Immortal Palace attacks an unknown world. The last time it was opened was 1,300 years ago."
Wang Yu raised an eyebrow: "We're the vanguard?"
Yue Zhenxiao waved his hands repeatedly.
"No, no, no, to be precise, it's a private matter for our demonic path. After the Great Demon Heaven discovers the new world in the Cosmic Sea, it will use a secret method to make it connect with the demonic cultivation world."
“Beings at the Dao Integration stage and above are dealt with by those great figures. Those below that stage are dealt with through various means, such as deceiving the beings of the other world and making them think of launching a counterattack.”
etc……
Yue Zhenxiao's words were too succinct; it took Wang Yu a moment to process them before he understood what he meant.
"You mean, the Great Demon Heaven deliberately feigned weakness, even intentionally put itself at a disadvantage, in order to hone us and make the other world want to counterattack or even plunder, thus luring them to the Demon Refining Domain for us to slaughter?"
Yue Zhenxiao nodded, though it was a bit abstract.
But that's the gist of it. After thinking about it for a while, Wang Yu felt that something was off.
The cosmic sea contains a territory ruled by celestial beings, known as the "Celestial Realm," where new worlds are discovered every one or two years.
They may have drifted from the other side of the Boundary Sea, or from the unknown cosmic sea. The so-called Boundary Sea is a pitch-black sea where the laws are forbidden.
This place is devoid of the Great Dao, and there is not even any kind of energy. It is a truly desolate place, which even a true immortal cannot cross.
The three ancient calamities were almost all related to the Boundary Sea.
All living beings in this world believe that the other side of the Boundary Sea is likely another cosmic sea, hence the name "Alternate Universe".
Imagine a natural barrier formed by the boundary sea.
To the right lies the cosmic sea of myriad races, containing both known and unknown parts. Capturing beings from the lesser and middle thousand worlds wouldn't be too difficult.
They could even take down these beings of a level that only requires sending a few Dao-Merging experts. These beings do not have the strength to travel through the universe and are essentially backward, closed-off countries.
Perhaps their cultivation systems have some reference value.
However, it absolutely cannot be used as a trial subject for the Demon Refining Domain. The reason is simple: it is too weak and completely meaningless. It would be better to just annex it directly.
The general process is: capture, conquer, transfer the spell.
Complete in three steps.
Then, through great magical power, one can integrate into the vast immortal realm, using immortal techniques to erode the world rules of the other party, and ultimately assimilate them into one's own body, thereby strengthening the great laws of the vast immortal realm.
Expanding territory is easier than conquering new lands.
Assimilation takes a long time, so they are closed off for thousands of years before they begin to come into contact with the world in the Immortal Realm and then fully integrate into human civilization.
This annexation was seen as a sign of the growth of the ethnic group.
The entire universe and all races are doing this, so it's not surprising. But according to Yue Zhenxiao, for the Great Demon Heaven to make such a deceptive scheme, it must be at least a realm of the Great Thousand World level.
Such a world often includes a series of medium and small-sized worlds, forming a complete world community.
It is highly likely that it possesses beings of the True Immortal Realm, which is extremely rare. No wonder the last Demon Realm Trial was 1,300 years ago.
Faced with such an opponent, the Demon Lord's attempt to use them as a trial for the cultivators of the Demon Refining Domain will undoubtedly encounter considerable resistance. The human race's nine realms will certainly participate in this grand feast of sharing a vast world cluster.
The details behind this are quite intriguing.
I pondered it for a while.
Black Spring and the Evil Beast King were also silently processing the information when the latter suddenly asked a question.
"Is this vast world newly discovered, or... drifted across the boundary sea from another universe?"
Obviously.
Wang Yu knew that the Evil Beast King, a core disciple who had joined the demonic path early on, would know even more, but he wasn't very bright and asked a stupid question.
As expected, King Black Spring mocked, "Is there any need to think about it? It must be a world cluster from another universe. If it were a Great Thousand-level cluster from our own universe, even if it were newly emerged, the True Immortal-level beings within it would have discovered our myriad race system in advance."
The True Immortal Realm exists, and one must possess at least one Dao Fruit.
They possess countless mysterious methods and have some understanding of the Dao of Time and Space, so it is common for them to foresee a corner of the future.
Knowing that the situation is unavoidable, they will mostly secretly contact certain groups and submit to them early on. Only those worlds lacking powerful local leaders will end up as food on the dinner table.
They were eaten by various tribes without their knowledge.
There are also those who want to maintain their independence, but the general environment will not allow it. The known universe is still dominated by the "Refining Spirits to Become Immortals" path. Even if there are niche cultivation systems, they will not be allowed to develop into the mainstream.
The reasons involved here are beyond their comprehension; they are most likely related to the laws of the Great Dao.
In conclusion.
All you need to know is that you are facing a completely unknown "alternate universe - the Great Thousand World Cluster"!
The Beast King was mocked, but he couldn't find the words to refute it.
I simply kept quiet and became a listener. I've learned a lot compared to before. I don't know if it's because I've cultivated my mind and have much better self-control than before, or if it's for some other reason.
Wang Yu seemed to be deep in thought.
After a moment's hesitation, he spoke, "Brother Yue, do you have any guidance on cultivating the nine major lineages of the Demon Realm?"
Upon hearing this...
Yue Zhenxiao asked with slight doubt: "Brother Wuyou, aren't you also in charge of the Demon Refining Domain of the Blood Demon Sword Sect? Has your lineage not contacted you?"
Wang Yu, with a thick skin, stroked his chin and said.
"No... no."
He had reason to suspect that Senior Brother Lianyun had not reported him to the Sword Sect headquarters. It was possible that he had simply forgotten, or that he had been tricked by Master Shengdan.
after all.
His desire to learn the entire Nine Meridians' lineage was never hidden from Master Shengdan. The latter wanted to do him a favor by making Lian Yun lose his memory for a period of time, or mistakenly believe that it had been reported. It was very simple.
That's a Transcending Tribulation Immortal, how can a mere Dao Integration Realm cultivator resist?
Yue Zhenxiao: "Never mind, the Sword Sect is probably all cultivating outside the realm, so the news is slower to spread. I have already joined the Undying Mountain and been taught the 'Undying Technique'."
"The order from above is for me to establish the [Undying Alliance] and use this law as a reward to recruit members at the Void Refinement stage, kill as many alien beings as possible, and send their corpses to the person in charge of the lineage."
King Black Spring responded, "Oh? Do the bodies of alien creatures have some special value... Brother Yue, could you elaborate? Has the Undying Mountain already obtained information about these creatures?"
Upon hearing this, Wang Yu nodded in agreement.
Since they've already booked the exhumation of the body, they must have some relevant intelligence. They still have three months to prepare. If they have detailed information, they can make targeted arrangements.
in addition.
He was also thinking about how to get his hands on the "Undying Law Restriction". As mentioned before, to advance the body refinement to the seventh level, he needed to condense a "Law Body" comparable to the "prototype of Dao Fruit".
This immortality technique is actually a top-tier body-condensing inheritance, which transforms the laws into a systematic set of restrictions and etches them onto the bones.
Let the laws thoroughly permeate the body.
To reach a state where every action is empowered by the power of laws.
At that time, even ordinary killing methods could not extinguish the life force of a seventh-level body cultivator, and they also had the power to resist causal methods.
The higher you go, the harder it is to kill!
The advantages of cultivating two paths simultaneously will continue to manifest, eventually leading to unparalleled dominance among those of the same level.
Yue Zhenxiao: "I do have some intelligence, but it will only be open to brothers within the Undying Alliance. You all have a good relationship with me, so I naturally invited you first. Even if you don't cultivate your body, it's not a loss to receive the inheritance of the Undying Law. You can also use your magic power to perform it."
Wang Yu asked, "Brother Yue, are there any restrictions on this Undying Alliance? What conditions must be met to exchange for the 'Undying Law Restriction'?"
Yue Zhenxiao smiled confidently: "There are no conditions. The exchange price is 100,000 corpses of alien creatures. They must be complete and retain their primordial spirit."
"Even if you withdraw from the Undying Alliance immediately after the exchange, I, Yue, have no objection. After all, you are all one of the Ten Kings, it's just a matter of giving each other face. Those lower cultivators will need to sign a Dao Contract and swear an oath of the Great Dao."
I see.
This is the tacit understanding among the nine major lineages of the demonic path. They have always been generous to talented demonic cultivators, so Wang Yu had no reason to hesitate.
Joining the Undying Alliance is just a title; treat it as an exchange platform. Given the size of a vast world community, gathering 100,000 beings is nothing special.
As for what Yue Zhenxiao can gain from it, that's up to his own abilities, and Wang Yu won't concern himself with it.
Under such broad conditions.
As expected, all three agreed to join the Undying Alliance. Next, Yue Zhenxiao began to talk about the information about these alien creatures.
"This vast world cluster was first discovered by the Celestial Venerable of the Undying Mountain, who reported it to the Great Demon Empress and obtained the right to invade first. The Demon Lord personally intervened to cover up the cause and effect and dragged it into my Vast Immortal Realm."
"The Nine Lineages of the Demonic Path currently possess relevant information about the Undying Mountain."
Kuroizumi said impatiently, "Alright, alright, let's get to the point. What kind of creature is it?"
Yue Zhenxiao chuckled and waved his hand.
In the center of the hall, there was a corpse, which was the alien creature. It was still humanoid in general, but it was over three meters tall and had a slender body like a bamboo pole.
Its appearance is ferocious and ugly, and its body is mostly grayish-black.
It has a chitinous shell, compound eyes and antennae on its head, and mouth parts similar to those of a beetle; it is completely a humanoid insect.
"They are called the [Insect God Race] by the higher-ups. They occupy the mainstream of that world and possess a mutated cocooning ability that allows them to evolve into a higher life form."
"The Black Insect Form has reached the third rank in strength, the Silver Insect Form is comparable to the fourth rank of Nascent Soul, and the Gold Insect Form is comparable to the Divine Transformation Form."
"Then comes the key point: the Golden Insect will evolve into the [Golden-Patterned Insect King], whose strength is comparable to the Void Refinement Realm. Every Insect God Clan creature possesses a Law Talent, which is comparable to the Three Thousand Great Daos. It is a talent with a high degree of randomness and is also determined by their bloodline."
“Whether strong or weak, they involve time, causality... and even completely absurd conceptual talents.”
Yue Zhenxiao explained it in great detail.
Wang Yu felt a bit of a problem. He had to be wary of things he didn't understand. At the same time, he took out an ordinary spirit sword and dissected the corpse like a butcher carving up an ox.
There were no abnormalities in the body structure and internal organs.
However, the insect god race has a very high physical base, which seems to be the inevitable result of evolution to support their talents. Moreover, an octahedral crystal covered with green patterns was found in their brains.
Faced with the questioning looks from the three people.
Yue Zhenxiao said excitedly, "This insect crystal is the key point I'm going to talk about next. It has the effect of purifying bloodlines without any side effects, and it's a law-level purification."
Wang Yu and the other two's pupils contracted, their interest surging.
The so-called law-level purification means that any bloodline aptitude, including the True Spirit Bloodline, can be improved to its theoretical limit.
Wang Yu's Ice Phoenix bloodline, which he seized, is a low-grade True Spirit bloodline. According to Yue Zhenxiao's intelligence, this insect crystal can upgrade it to a top-grade True Spirit bloodline.
It can be described as divine skill.
"What level of insect crystal can purify a true spirit's bloodline?"
Yue Zhenxiao took a deep breath.
“Any insect crystal will do.”
Holy crap!
Wang Yu knew that in three months all the demon cultivators in the Demon Refining Domain would go mad, and the half-demon cultivators in the Heavenly Demon Realm would riot on the spot. If he didn't let them in, he was afraid that a civil war would break out.
That's really an exaggeration.
