Cultivating for a hundred lifetimes to ascension

Zhao Sheng summoned the White Bone Treasure Shield back to his side and plucked the nondescript stone seed from atop the shield, which sank heavily into his hand as he grasped it.

Hmm,

Zhao Sheng felt a hint of surprise and thought to himself, "This thing is actually three parts heavier than an Innate Geng Metal of the same volume; no wonder it could break the shield in one strike."

He looked at it again but still did not recognize it.

Zhos Sheng casually put the stone seed into the Storage Space Seal and then paid it no further attention.

In the boundless Void of All Universes, there are far too many unknown things. Even the legendary True Immortals would not dare to claim knowledge of all things beneath the heavens.

Compared to a True Immortal, Zhao Sheng was merely an "aborigine" who had not seen much of the world, so his limited knowledge was understandable.

After flying about another two thousand li, Xian Kong Ancestor, enveloped in intermittent flashes of golden light, suddenly transmitted a weary message, "My Lord, we have been flying for so long. Shall we find a place to rest?"

Zhao Sheng scanned the others with his Divine Thought and, "seeing" that the Mana light of the five people's Magic Domains had grown very dim, relayed, "That sounds good!"

Upon hearing this, He Tai, Yama, and the others were immediately invigorated and began to slow their flight speed, all looking over in unison.

At that moment, He Tai Ancestor, with a smile in his voice, transmitted, "My Lord, just now, about thirty li to my right, there was a meteorite nearly ten li large hanging in space. Why don't we rest there for a while?"

"Lead the way!" Zhao Sheng ordered decisively upon hearing this.

The environment of the Black Abyss Domain was chaotic and dangerous, primarily consisting of meteorite dust and small meteorites; large meteorites over one li were extremely rare, and each appearance indicated a "safe zone."

Under the lead of He Tai Ancestor, the Six Escape Light abruptly turned and rapidly flew towards the large meteorite.

Shortly after, the huge gray-black Stone Meteor, pocked with pits and depressions, appeared in the minds of the six like a flattened basketball.

The Six Escape Light descended onto the Stone Meteor and instantly kicked up a large cloud of dust.

Xian Kong Ancestor's eyes rolled, and with a sweep of his sleeve, a golden light zipped into the ground.

In just a moment, an underground tunnel several dozen zhang deep was excavated.

Xian Kong Ancestor was about to make an effort to create a temporary cave mansion for everyone.

But unexpectedly... his face suddenly changed, and a streak of golden light burst forth from the tunnel.

At that moment, the golden knife's tip bore a smear of dark purple viscous liquid, resembling the blood of some creature.

"Not good, run!" Xian Kong Ancestor shouted in alarm, immediately warning Zhao Sheng and the others.

At this time, Zhao Sheng and his companions had also seen the blood on the knife and were already secretly on guard.

But before they could react, the Stone Meteor under their feet suddenly shook, and in an instant, a terrifying, vast pressure burst forth, as boundless as the sea.

Boom, boom, boom!

Zhao Sheng and the others did not need reminding. They immediately activated their Magic Domains, and each turned into Mystic Light, soaring up into the deeper Void with all their might.

However, just as their tunneling light had ascended into the air, not a hundred zhang high, the surface of the Stone Meteor violently surged with endless white light, which instantly not only "submerged" the Stone Meteor but also, like a soaring flame, covered a ten li radius with black light.

Where the white light spread, the Void suddenly developed an unimaginable "stickiness," making the originally ethereal Void become thick and muddy, like a swamp.

At this moment, Zhao Sheng felt as though he had fallen into glue, his whole body restrained by some invisible force. Not only was his speed drastically reduced, but the circulation of his Mana was also greatly hindered.

Seeing this, Zhao Sheng's heart sank. Thinking quickly, a white-gold rainbow immediately shot out from his Core Energy Sea... with a twist of light, the Thousand Flame Tripod flew above his head.

The next instant, the Thousand Flame Tripod trembled and then scattered a vast expanse of grey light.

The Annihilation Grey Light spread through the Void, instantly annihilating the invisible "stickiness" in the surrounding Void.

Yama and the other four felt their bodies lighten and, overjoyed, hurriedly used their Divine Skills to turn into light and flee in an instant.

"Hel—"

Just then, He Tai Ancestor's voice abruptly cut off.

"What?"

At this moment, having flown over thirty li, Zhao Sheng's expression suddenly changed, shocked.

Because He Tai had almost without warning vanished from his Divine Thought's sensing.

But, it was not entirely without warning.

Just before He Tai disappeared, there had been an abrupt, significant fluctuation in the nearby space-time, which lasted but a moment.

Had it not been for He Tai's sudden disappearance, he might have thought it was just an illusion.

Suddenly, Zhao Sheng felt his hair stand on end, his heart instantly filled with a dire premonition as if he was about to face a life-or-death crisis.

In that moment, he instinctively activated the Phase Shifting Divine Skill, and his body vanished from its original location.

Almost at the same instant, a dark, deep "line" three zhang long abruptly split open in the Void where he had been.

In a flash, a wide tongue covered in eerie green mucous surprisingly protruded from the "line," swiftly licking the surroundings but biting the air.

A hundred li away from the Stone Meteor, Zhao Sheng emerged from the Void, only to see a burst of Thunder Light shooting towards him.

Just five or six li behind the Thunder Light, a giant golden rat was closely pursuing, while Yama and Ou Feng trailed at the end.

Seeing Zhao Sheng appear ahead, Thunder Roc Ancestor's eyes flickered with a hint of ferocity, but he quickly dissipated his tunneling light and stopped behind his lord.

One breath, two breaths...

Xian Kong, Yama, and Ou Feng also gradually came to a stop, gazing at the Stone Meteor a hundred li away, engulfed by white light, their souls barely settled.
