Chapter 1813 9th Rank Insect Immortal
"boom--!!!"
The entire Beast Taming Void Realm was shaken!
The Time-Dwelling Mother Insect emitted a deafening roar, its voice echoing throughout the Great Dao!
Its transformation speed increased a hundredfold!
Amber light shot into the sky, manifesting countless phenomena above the Chaos Divine Sea, and finally coalescing into an unprecedented existence.
The light gradually faded.
In the center of the Beast Taming Realm, the Time-Dwelling Mother Insect finally completed its final metamorphosis.
It is no longer an insect.
It is shaped like a dragon and its entire body is translucent amber-colored.
Nine pairs of feet, each representing time and space, stand in the void, leaving behind lingering ripples of time and space with every step.
Between the opening and closing of the three compound eyes on its back, the left eye circulates dark golden demonic energy, the right eye rotates in chaos, and the central main eye flows with the long river of time.
What's most amazing is the Taoist aura that it naturally exudes.
That wasn't intimidation, but a higher level of presence.
"A ninth-tier immortal insect!"
Zhang Xuan's eyes flashed with a sharp light.
The Immortal Insect of Time slowly lowered its head, and its three compound eyes looked at Zhang Xuan at the same time.
There was no ferocity of wild beasts in their eyes, only wisdom as clear as water.
"My master has granted me new life, allowing me to merge with the origin of all spirits and forge an immortal body that transcends time and space. I hereby swear an oath to uphold the Great Dao—in this life and the next, I will forever follow my master, traversing all the heavens and myriad realms, conquering the long river of time and space. Even if I perish and my soul is annihilated, I will never change this will!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the nine pairs of Time-Space Immortal Insects simultaneously bent, and their enormous, mountain-like bodies slowly knelt in the void.
The moment it knelt down, Zhang Xuan sensed an invisible Dao contract being established between them.
This is not a master-servant contract, but a higher-level symbiotic contract of the Great Dao.
The Immortal Insect of Time bound its Dao Foundation to Zhang Xuan's Immortal Path, sharing both glory and ruin.
"Good! Good! Good!"
Zhang Xuan exclaimed "Good!" three times, his heart filled with boundless pride.
“Shiqi, from now on, you are not my servant, but my fellow traveler on the path.”
Shiqi Immortal Insect slowly rose to his feet, his voice even more resolute: "I admire Master's magnanimity."
Zhang Xuan said no more, only nodded emphatically.
Just as the Time-Dwelling Immortal Insect completed its transformation and knelt down to swear an oath, another anomaly occurred!
The Beast Taming Void Realm began to shrink, transforming into a dazzling stream of light that once again merged into the Immortal Path.
The remaining primordial essence of the Great Dao is continuously fed into the end of the Immortal Path.
The entire path to immortality emitted a continuous, resounding tremor.
"Rumble--"
The chaotic divine sea surged with towering waves.
Above the Immortal Gate, the Nine Dragon Wall originally only had eight solid phantom dragon images, while the ninth remained an illusion.
At this moment, the ninth dragon shadow began to tremble violently!
It greedily absorbed the Daoist essence flowing from the path to immortality.
"Roar--"
The ninth dragon roar finally rang out.
Unlike the previous eight roars, this dragon's roar contained a perfect Daoist rhythm, and a certain ancient deficiency was finally made up for.
The nine dragons on the Nine Dragon Wall opened their eyes at the same time!
Nine pairs of dragon eyes, eighteen gazes, all turned to Zhang Xuan at the same time.
"The nine dragons... have finally all solidified."
Zhang Xuan took a deep breath, suppressing his excitement.
The gates of immortality are about to truly open!
Zhang Xuan immediately gathered the others together.
"Gentlemen, the Immortal Gate is about to open!"
"Roar!!!"
Nine earth-shaking dragon roars resounded simultaneously!
Above the immortal gate, the nine illusory dragons completely materialized, their scales clearly defined, their dragon might overwhelming!
The moment the nine dragons solidified, the immortal gate roared.
The ancient divine patterns on the door panel lit up one by one, their light soaring into the sky, piercing through the boundary membranes of the nine divine realms, and pointing directly to the unknown and mysterious place!
When Jiao'er, You Wuyai, and the others arrived, they were also astonished by what they saw.
"Now!" Zhang Xuan shouted, "Everyone, please enter the Immortal Sect!"
Six streams of light shot into the sky.
The dragon was protected by icy blue Daoist energy, and the aura of a Golden Immortal flowed naturally.
Surrounded by nine divine dragons, the six of them entered the fully opened immortal gate.
The moment the last person entered, the immortal gate slammed shut, and the nine divine dragons returned to their phantom forms.
Within the Immortal Gate lies a vast sea of cause and effect.
Countless spatial folds twisted into threads, each formed from pure causal laws, colorful yet transparent and illusory, intertwining and covering the entire field of vision.
Fragmented images and information flow along the threads of cause and effect.
The creation of interfaces, the fall of cultivators, the emergence of treasures...
The concrete manifestation of the interconnectedness of all things unfolds here.
"Do not touch any threads of cause and effect."
The causal side branches of Zhang Xuan's Great Dao Tree glowed faintly, revealing the direction of the silk threads and the dangers they posed.
Jiao'er's icy gaze swept across the area: "This place should be inside the remains of the Heavenly Dragon. The laws are twisted, forming a causal labyrinth. We must proceed along the causal threads that are connected to the central ancestral vein."
The six people carefully made their way through the gaps in the threads of cause and effect.
The sense of time is completely chaotic here; one might step out into the outside world and several days have passed, or one might walk for a long time and yet only a moment has passed in reality.
After an unknown amount of time, an unusually large thread of cause and effect appeared ahead.
The silk thread, as thick as a mountain, lay across the way, blocking all paths.
The image of silk threads flowing across the surface is eerie and terrifying.
Countless coffins floated and sank, ghostly figures loomed overhead.
The River Styx surged, and the souls of the dead wailed.
Zhang Xuan focused his mind and sensed that the causal branches of the Great Dao Tree trembled violently.
When he awakened the Divine Cauldron Saint Body, the ten fragments of divine soul he retrieved from the connected, broken space came from…
“The Ancient Netherworld.” Zhang Xuan slowly uttered the four words.
A hint of understanding flashed in Jiao'er's eyes: "The realm formed by the Netherworld Dragon Vein, one of the nine great dragon veins, was completely abandoned during the Ancient Calamity and became the last graveyard of the Ghost Clan."
"The thread of cause and effect before us is formed from the spatial folds of the Netherworld Ancient Domain; we cannot bypass it."
Ancestor Tian Shi frowned: "We have to pass through?"
"I'm afraid so." Emperor Wei Yuxuan observed the image on the surface of the silk thread. "Moreover, since the Netherworld Ancient Domain is an abandoned domain under the Great Calamity, there may still be many resources that are useful to us. The high-level coffins made by the Ghost Clan often contain rare treasures that they collected in their lifetime."
The ninth-tier ancient whale nodded and said, "In the memories of our Ancient Whale heritage, before the Netherworld Ancient Domain was completely abandoned, a tremendous battle broke out, and several Taiyi-level Ghost Clan powerhouses perished here..."
The meaning was clear even before the words were finished.
The treasures left behind by those at the Taiyi level after their fall are probably not ordinary treasures, but rare gems that can truly help them break through bottlenecks and comprehend the Great Dao.
Even just a few remnants are enough to drive people crazy.
“Since we can’t avoid it, let’s go in and explore.” Jiao’er finally decided, “But remember, since the Netherworld Ancient Domain is abandoned, there must be strange things there. After the death of a powerful ghost, the coffin may give birth to a great ghost that is devoid of intelligence but extremely dangerous. Everyone must be careful.”
The group exchanged glances and nodded in agreement.
Zhang Xuan took a deep breath and reached out to touch the massive, dark purple thread of cause and effect.
The instant the fingertips touched—
"boom!"
The world spins and time and space are displaced.
A dark and decaying aura wafted over us.
The sky was leaden gray, with only faint will-o'-the-wisps of light floating high above.
Looking out, countless broken coffins were scattered in the desolate void.
The smaller ones are only about ten feet long, while the larger ones are as tall as mountains.
Some coffin lids were half-open, revealing the deep darkness inside, while others were completely shattered, with fragments scattered all over the ground.
The air was filled with a dense aura of death. Ordinary cultivators would lose their life force and turn into withered bones if they stayed here for a short while, but true immortals could still bear this environment.
