Eternal Tale

The massive ship sped deeper into the heart of the War Realm, entering deeper into the Black Soil Domain. Darkness surrounded them as corrupted beings no longer hid but moved in large groups. The black mountains stretched endlessly, creating an imposing and terrifying landscape.

Each member of the group focused on their tasks. When Deity Transformation stage corrupted beings blocked their path, twelve fearsome figures emerged, unleashing an Extinguishing Storm that swept the land, uprooting black mountains from their very foundations.

Xiao Chi, now larger in size, worked at the rear, using Extinguishing Spirit Stones to capture the chilling energy from the black mountains' earth veins, diligently absorbing all he could.

As they pressed forward, the oppressive and sinister energy in the air grew stronger, causing discomfort even to them. It was a level of hostility that could challenge the willpower of Deity Transformation beings.

On this day, the endless sky above emitted a grayish-blue glow, casting a desolate light on the blackened land below. It was eerie—there was no sun or moon in the War Realm. The grayish-blue light seemed to emerge from nowhere, sinking into the sea of darkness, heavy and oppressive.

A familiar system notification echoed in Chen Xun’s mind as they stood atop the crane's head.

Chen Xun exchanged a glance with Brother Ox, and they silently allocated their points to defense, as if this small boost could offer them some sense of security amidst the growing peril.

Xiao Chi, having grown much larger, shivered occasionally. The cold, sinister energy of the domain seeped deep into his being, pulling them into an abyss of despair.

Rustle, rustle.

The Crane Spirit Five Elements Tree trembled, its branches swaying as if it, too, sensed the looming danger. Below, the ground was filled with corrupted beings, their eyes locked onto the ship, unblinking, as they stared at the living beings aboard.

Enormous black mountains occasionally came into view, exuding an overwhelming sense of hostility that fixed upon them.

“Living beings!!!”

“How dare you set foot here!!”

“Kill!!!”

Three booming voices, filled with fury, echoed through the air. The overwhelming malice made all living creatures shudder. The three Deity Transformation stage corrupted beings radiated waves of tainted blood energy as they approached.

“Moo!!”

“How dare you corrupted beings shout at Brother Chen?!”

Xiao Chi, hiding behind Brother Ox, roared furiously, his voice echoing through the air, “Roar, roar!”

In the distance, the three humanoid corrupted beings glared with bloodthirsty excitement. They offered no response, rushing in from the sky. Blood-red light trailed behind them as they charged, filling the air with the sound of surging tainted blood—a life-draining technique.

Electric sparks flickered around Chen Xun, his silver hair flowing, eyes glinting with an unusual light. He decided to test the power of his newly crafted mystic-grade Seated Oblivion Talismans.

Two imposing figures appeared beside him, and they simultaneously struck with their palms, launching themselves off the ship.

Lightning split the sky as three black talismans transformed into streaks of light, darting toward the three Deity Transformation stage corrupted beings.

Chen Xun smirked coldly, pointing two fingers at the void. A surge of invisible, refined energy burst forth, merging with the talismans and pressing down like a mountain. ɽΆ₦οβĚ𝒮

“What is this?!”

“Refined energy! It’s the energy of living beings!”

“No, it’s tainted blood from our kind!”

The three corrupted beings trembled, seeing something that filled them with terror. Corrupted beings typically lack refined blood, yet they now witnessed refined energy intertwined with tainted blood!

The talismans were unstoppable; they didn’t just appear out of thin air but followed the flow of refined energy within the battlefield.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The talismans activated simultaneously, and the corrupted beings’ expressions twisted in horror. The talismans tracked their tainted blood as if homing in on it. Blood spewed from their orifices, their auras weakening as their own techniques began turning against them.

Even their life-draining technique backfired, its destructive force reversing onto them.

“No!”

Panic surged through their minds as they looked up at the silver-haired man standing in the center of the battlefield. His cold eyes carried a hint of mockery.

Killing themselves with their own powers?!

“A human being? Impossible!”

“He’s not a human being!”

“Who are you?!”

“I’m your long-lost parent.”

“Impossible! We are born of the earth and sky, not tied to the despicable relationships of your kind.”

The three corrupted beings, disoriented by the talismans’ backlash, writhed in agony. If it continued, they would perish from their own blood’s retribution.

Exchanging fearful glances, their hostility turned to dread as they stared at Chen Xun.

Swish!

Just as they turned to flee, a black axe light sliced through the sky. They only saw a flash before their tainted blood spurted upward—blood of their own.

The three Deity Transformation stage corrupted beings shuddered as a piercing scream echoed. In the blink of an eye, they were decimated, unable to put up any resistance.

The three figures moved calmly, collecting the tainted blood of the Deity Transformation beings without haste.

Their eyes swept over the corrupted beings on the ground. The creatures trembled, their consciousness obliterated instantly by the Extinguishing Storm.

For hundreds of miles around, the corrupted beings wailed and retreated. The silver-haired man in the sky was no ordinary living being!

Rumble!

The ground quaked as swarms of corrupted beings instinctively fled. They sought to destroy and torment living beings, not face something as terrifying as him.

On the ship, Brother Ox and Xiao Chi watched in awe, stunned by Brother Chen’s power.

Chen Xun’s talismans single-handedly killed three Deity Transformation stage corrupted beings. Who would believe such a feat?

Especially Brother Ox, who felt the impact personally. Defeating Deity Transformation beings seemed even easier than dealing with the Liao family cultivators during their Qi Refinement days.

People said that as cultivators advanced, their powers grew, making it increasingly difficult to kill them due to their varied techniques.

But their power had grown exponentially, and the threshold for their longevity points had also increased dramatically.

In the end, their strength would only multiply as their cultivation advanced, allowing them to overwhelm others of the same realm.

“Moo moo~~”

Brother Ox snorted, eyes wide as he stared at Chen Xun’s silver-haired figure in the distance.

Xiao Chi was utterly convinced. In this battlefield, he feared no one except Brother Chen. No one could defeat him. After all, he had never seen Brother Chen exert his full strength.

Chen Xun remained calm, effortlessly slaying the three Deity Transformation beings without a ripple of emotion.

The path of cultivation was vast and boundless, filled with countless geniuses and ancient masters. One must never grow arrogant—arrogance was the enemy of longevity.

He glanced at Xiao Chi, contemplating the bloodline transformation technique of Yu Jingxin and its connection to the Jiang family. Still, it required further refinement.

Once his rootless essence flower matured, he might attempt it.

“Brother Ox, Xiao Chi, Crane Spirit, move out!”

“Moo moo!”

“Roar!”

Rustle, rustle.

Boom!

The ship transformed into black and white light, continuing straight ahead. The grayish-blue light in the sky thickened as they ventured deeper.

After they departed, the remains of the three Deity Transformation beings continued to change. The effects of the Seated Oblivion Talismans persisted beyond death, ensuring their end.

Their shriveled bodies failed to merge with the black soil, gradually disintegrating into nothingness.

…

A year later, the ship’s speed had slowed, and the atmosphere inside was heavy with murderous intent. Behind them lay an endless sea of blood and corpses; they had slaughtered countless corrupted beings.

Chen Xun and Brother Ox had long since unleashed their life-bound magical tools, their eyes bloodshot. The air around them was filled with whirling starry disks, blazing red light, and searing heat.

Rumble!

The ground trembled as vast black mountains erupted, their crumbling echoing the terrified and angry cries of the corrupted beings. No matter how many were slain, their numbers seemed infinite.

These corrupted beings were so numerous they induced despair. Even Xiao Chi cowered beneath the Crane Spirit, holding his breath.

Buzz—

Space vibrated as the ship hovered midair. The Crane Spirit Five Elements Tree withdrew its branches, revealing a clear view ahead.

Chen Xun and Brother Ox exchanged a solemn glance, their chests heaving.

“Brother Ox… we’ve arrived.”

“Moo~~”

They slowly lifted their heads, gazing in all directions. Shock and awe filled their eyes as they remained speechless, their fingers trembling involuntarily.

Instinctively, they allocated their longevity points to defense.

Chen Xun took a deep breath and donned his straw hat. “Brother Ox, it’s time.”
