Chapter 1624
Surprise
The sound was like silk being torn apart, or like glass shattering. The surrounding chaotic space began to shake violently, and finally, with a loud bang, it exploded completely.
A powerful force swept outwards in all directions, stirring up massive waves of chaos, to the point that the surrounding void became like a vacuum.
It was thought that after the giant wave passed, the void would gradually return to calm, but unexpectedly, it triggered a chain reaction!
Rumbling--
Wherever the giant wave passed, all the chaotic spiritual energy was swept away, followed by a series of chaotic tsunamis, void turbulence, and chaotic storms!
Moreover, these terrible and horrific disasters are not limited to the vicinity, but are spreading wildly and rapidly into the distant void.
Roar!
Some chaotic beasts, who were living peacefully in their own territories, seemed to have seen some incredibly terrifying being. They let out a low growl to bluff their way out, and then turned and fled without hesitation.
"Damn it! What happened in the void that caused such a terrifying disaster!"
Several creatures happened to be training nearby, but they never expected to encounter such a calamity. They all used their best skills and fled for their lives as fast as they could.
"not good!"
Li Zhirui also sensed something was wrong immediately and used his defensive abilities and summoned his natal magic weapon to ensure his safety.
However, what happened next was far beyond his expectations. Faced with the increasingly terrifying power of the chaotic currents, his defensive measures were as fragile as a piece of paper, completely vulnerable!
If he hadn't reacted quickly enough to instantly retrieve his natal magic weapon, he would likely have suffered severe injuries in this terrifying disaster.
Even so, his blood and qi surged, and his face turned red.
As for the large number of giant spirit vines that Li Zhirui had previously spawned, they only lasted a moment in the face of this disaster before being completely reduced to ashes!
Fortunately, he was located at the center of the explosion. Although the first wave of energy was incredibly terrifying, as long as he survived it, he would be considered to have survived this ordeal and there would be no further danger.
Unlike now, the surrounding void centered on him is still being ravaged by terrifying chaotic torrents and various disasters.
"What on earth is going on..."
Even with Li Zhirui's composure, he was stunned and deeply shocked when he looked at the drastically changed void before him.
This was no longer the void he was familiar with, where every inch of space was filled with chaotic spiritual energy. It was more like a glass box, empty inside, with nothing in it!
He merely managed to burst a special chaotic spiritual land; who could have imagined it would cause such a commotion that made the world lose its color?
Fortunately, there is no world in this void, so there is no need to worry about those worlds being destroyed by this terrible disaster.
Otherwise, Li Zhirui will face the resentment, karma, and consequences arising from the deaths of countless beings in one or even several worlds!
These things alone are enough to ruin his path.
They might even be rejected by the Great Dao!
Any living being that is destroyed or killed in a world that is not due to a war between the two worlds, or due to its own internal reasons, will be rejected by the Great Dao!
The reason is simple: the strength of beings in the Golden Immortal Realm is terrifying. They can destroy a small world in no time.
What about those even more powerful beings above the Golden Immortal level, such as the Taiyi, Daluo, and even the Dao Fruit Daluo?
They could destroy a small or medium-sized world with the flick of their wrist.
That's why the Great Dao established such strict rules, in order to protect the world and prevent it from being destroyed by beings of high cultivation.
the most important is……
"Such a grand display, yet nothing was gained?!"
When Li Zhirui came to his senses, his first reaction was to look for any chaotic spiritual objects nearby.
But this place has truly become an empty void, devoid of anything, with absolutely no trace of any spiritual beings.
In other words, his actions brought him no benefit whatsoever! On the contrary, they almost harmed him.
After searching repeatedly and confirming that there were no spiritual beings in the vicinity, Li Zhirui could only prepare to leave the place with a disappointed expression.
Unexpectedly, such a special place yielded no results, and instead, a lot of my spirit stones and spirit seeds were wasted.
As for the problem of this void?
He was just a lowly Xuanxian cultivator; he had no way of solving this problem.
Moreover, the surrounding chaotic spiritual energy is already rapidly flowing into this open space, and it won't be long before things return to normal, so he won't need to do anything.
After waiting a while longer, until the terrifying disasters ended and the void gradually returned to calm, Li Zhirui left as quickly as possible.
Shortly after he left, a series of figures rushed over from afar, each one a powerful Xuanxian cultivator.
These immortals came from the same world, and their goal was to find a great world where everyone was at least at the immortal level, then launch a war between the two worlds, devour the other world, and use it as resources for their own great world's advancement.
The fact that they mobilized seven or eight Xuanxian at once, and possibly more than just their group, demonstrates the strength of their Great Thousand World. No wonder they are so ambitious, targeting Great Thousand Worlds at the Xuanxian level.
"Is this the source?" A certain immortal frowned slightly, scanning the surroundings, but found nothing suspicious.
Another immortal said with certainty, "The deduction points to this place!"
As for why he found nothing, and why it was no different from the surrounding void, he didn't know.
He had considerable faith in his companion's deductions, so he didn't press further. Instead, he asked, "Fellow Daoists, do you think that the appearance of this supreme treasure without any clues is due to the spirit choosing its own master and hiding away, or has someone already gotten there first?"
In fact, the treasure he mentioned was an extremely rare and precious Chaos Spiritual Treasure.
It should be understood that Chaos Treasures cannot be crafted after birth; they can only take shape after countless years of evolution in the void and chaos.
Most importantly, the Chaos Treasure contains corresponding and unique laws!
If one obtains a Chaos Treasure that resonates with one's own nature, it will undoubtedly be of great help to one's path of cultivation.
Even if the laws are different, one can still comprehend them and perhaps even gain insights into different laws or supernatural powers, which would give one an extra trump card.
Doesn't it look similar to a chaotic being that has developed sentience? It is said that there is indeed a close relationship between the two, and there are even rumors that the Chaotic Treasure was formed after its death, when its internal magic power fused with some spiritual objects.
As for whether it's true or not, no one has seen it with their own eyes yet, so it cannot be confirmed at this time.
On another note!
The other immortals frowned slightly when they heard this question. How were they supposed to answer it?
Neither option is a good answer. Saying that the spirit treasure will choose its own master means that they are not destined to have it. Saying that someone else has already gotten it, but the other party did not leave any clues. How can they find it in the vast void?
They were even more afraid that they would be sent out to find the other party. If the other party was powerful, wouldn't they be courting death?
"We are too dull to understand, so please enlighten us, fellow Daoist."
After much deliberation, they chose not to answer, letting him figure it out himself. "However, we are leaving the Heavenly Cloud Realm this time to search for the Great Thousand Worlds and provide resources for the advancement of the Heavenly Cloud Realm. We shouldn't waste our time and energy on other things," one of the Mystic Immortals said meaningfully.
“That’s right,” the other immortals echoed.
In short, they had no intention of searching for that possible Chaos Treasure.
Firstly, there's a high probability of not finding it, which would just be a waste of time.
Secondly, there is only one spiritual treasure, but there are so many of them, so how to distribute it is a big problem. It might even lead to a great war of mutual slaughter among them.
The immortal was somewhat annoyed, feeling that everyone was short-sighted, having discovered the trace of the Chaos Treasure, yet choosing to give up.
If primordial treasures are so hard to find, are they really so easy to find in the vast world? Isn't that just like looking for a needle in a haystack?
However, he did not show it on his face. He simply smiled and nodded, saying, "What you fellow Daoists say is very true. I did not consider this carefully."
If he weren't so powerful that he couldn't subdue these people, how could he have given up so easily?!
"Let's go, maybe we'll find the world soon."
After the immortal finished speaking, he took the lead and flew ahead.
……
Meanwhile, Li Zhirui, who had already flown far away, released Qing Si and Wu Xing from the space.
"Ninth Brother! Something terrible has happened!"
But to their surprise, as soon as they came out, they said anxiously, "There's a problem with the space!"
"what?"
Li Zhirui was shocked. Before he could ask for details, he led the two into the spatial dimension.
You should know that even now, his personal space is still incredibly important to him!
It could even be said that whether one's path is smooth or unobstructed depends half on the space available.
The moment Li Zhirui entered the space, a huge ball of light came into view.
Upon further inspection, nothing seemed amiss.
"You said something happened to the space, but it's perfectly fine here."
If I had to pinpoint it, it would be this mysterious ball of light, but it didn't cause any damage to the space.
"Ninth Brother, take a closer look, the spiritual energy in the space is decreasing!" Qing Si said anxiously.
If the light orb is allowed to absorb the spiritual energy in the space, it will not have much impact on their cultivation. At worst, they can just leave the space. However, the countless spiritual plants planted in the space will cause enormous damage!
With Qing Si's reminder, Li Zhirui observed more carefully and was shocked to find that he was right. The spiritual energy in the space was indeed decreasing, and the culprit that caused this situation was the suddenly appearing ball of light.
When did this ball of light appear?
Qing Si thought for a moment and said, "About half an hour ago, we originally thought that it was you, Ninth Brother, who brought it in. We were thinking of seeing what kind of treasure it was, but we found that it was absorbing spiritual energy, and the amount was particularly large."
It should be noted that there are multiple spiritual veins in this space, the highest of which is already a Celestial Immortal level spiritual vein. In addition, the space itself transforms chaotic spiritual energy from the void, so it generates a massive amount of spiritual energy every second.
However, even though the generation of spiritual energy remained unchanged, the amount of spiritual energy in the space was decreasing extremely slowly, which shows how terrifying the amount of spiritual energy this pearl absorbed silently was!
"Half an hour ago?"
Li Zhirui seemed to suddenly realize something. Could this ball of light be the treasure from that chaotic spiritual land from before?!
It turns out he didn't have nothing at all; the treasure had already been taken into his possession!
However, this treasure was rather strange; it was able to enter the space without his knowledge.
It should be noted that even when Li Zhirui faced a Golden Immortal, the other party did not detect the existence of the space, let alone directly break in.
But this seemingly unremarkable ball of light could actually enter his space directly.
"Ninth Brother, do you know what this is?" Qing Si knew from his expression that he probably knew something.
"I'm not entirely sure what it is, but it should be a very valuable treasure."
As he spoke, Li Zhirui probed the ball of light with his divine sense.
Unexpectedly, the whole process was not only without any obstacles, but also very smooth, and the spirit treasure that was not yet fully formed was refined directly.
"This……"
A moment later, he opened his eyes again, his eyes filled with surprise.
"This is a chaotic spiritual treasure called the Heaven-Shaking Pearl. It can contain a world and not only possesses immense power, but it can also break through space."
Therefore, it can enter space.
"Unfortunately, the Heaven-Shaking Pearl was not fully formed and seemed to have suffered some damage."
In truth, this is all Li Zhirui's own fault.
If he hadn't forcibly destroyed the chaotic spiritual land that nurtured the Heaven-Shaking Pearl, it would have been fully formed in a few hundred years.
But then I thought, by then, Lingbao will choose its own master, and it probably won't fall into his hands.
And who told that chaotic spirit to trap them?!
It can only be said that all of this was preordained.
"But leaving the Heaven-Shaking Pearl in the space isn't a solution! Who knows how much more spiritual energy it will absorb before it stops?"
Qing Si frowned and said, "What if the spiritual energy in the space becomes very low by then, and a large number of spiritual creatures wither and die due to insufficient spiritual energy?"
Indeed, this is a serious problem that needs to be addressed as soon as possible.
"The reason why the Heaven-Shaking Pearl is not fully formed is because it has absorbed too little chaotic spiritual energy, so it is absorbing spiritual energy on a large scale."
After thinking for a moment, Li Zhirui decided to try his hand at taking the Heaven-Shaking Pearl out of the space.
We dare not let it absorb the spiritual energy in the space freely, but there is no such concern about the endless chaotic spiritual energy in the void.
Fortunately, this approach succeeded!
The Heaven-Shaking Pearl left the spatial dimension and returned to the void. Instantly, it resembled a giant whale with its jaws wide open, rapidly devouring the chaotic spiritual energy. (End of Chapter)
