Chapter 206: Calamity Water Guides East

【What the heck?】

The Silver Stone Gate's energy was entirely focused on the fragment; at first it didn't react, but it quickly realized the meaning of Wang Ping's words.

Its tone instantly became urgent: 【Quick, first drag the fragment into the Silver Magic Cube!】

Wang Ping knew the situation was urgent, he controlled the Silver Magic Cube, increasing its suction, but it was too late; the Unicorn Heaven Thunder Beast behind had already smashed through that thin layer of spatial membrane.

Everything around was completely sealed; that fragment could not move at all, no matter how the Silver Magic Cube tried to collect it.

Thud!

The whole space shuddered; the adult Unicorn Heaven Thunder Beast had already stepped one foot into the inner layer of the space.

Creak! Creak! Creak!

As more of the Unicorn Heaven Thunder Beast's body entered, the space actually emitted a sound of being unable to bear the weight.

"Transcendent Sir! The fragment is completely secured!"

Wang Ping shouted:

【Kid! I'm about to unleash my accumulated power—seize the moment!】 The Silver Stone Gate's tone also became urgent.

Wang Ping no longer had time to reply; the aura of a True Immortal had already seeped out from the Silver Magic Cube's entrance—if not for the Silver Stone Gate blocking it, he might have collapsed straight to the ground.

Hum!

The Silver Stone Gate suddenly shot out from Wang Ping's brow, whooshing out of the cube!

In the next instant, it had become a hundred‑zhang‑tall Silver Stone Gate; Wang Ping thought it would use some divine ability, but the enlarged Silver Stone Gate instead charged wildly at the unicorn.

Its speed was so fast it surpassed Wang Ping's thoughts.

Bang!

A deep, muffled sound rang out, and the Unicorn Heaven Thunder Beast let out a roar!

Wang Ping instantly felt the suppressing force on the fragment disappear; he almost without hesitation shoved the fragment into the Silver Magic Cube—if not for the fact that, during this period in the Fallen Immortal Valley, the Silver Magic Cube had absorbed some spirit qi containing immortal aura, expanding its internal space a bit, Wang Ping might have been crushed by it; even so, he could only shrink into a corner.

Whoosh! A miniature Silver Stone Gate instantly appeared!

Then Wang Ping saw himself appear in cosmic void; the Silver Stone Gate's voice came through: 【I've sent the unicorn to a different space; with its strength, it can break free within three breaths—we need to hide quickly!】

Wang Ping loudly said: "Go back! Let's go back, lure the unicorn over, and have a big battle with the hidden forces to buy some time!"

A fierce light surged across the Silver Stone Gate: 【Haha, great idea! Go!】

Having said that, the Silver Magic Cube appeared in a passage filled with five‑colored light.

Moving at extreme speed, Wang Ping curiously gazed at the outside scenery—is this the passage he uses to travel to the Spirit Realm?

It looks very much like a spacetime passage.

Time seemed to have passed both ages and an instant; he again saw that huge six‑cornered compass, though only a fleeting glance.

Lower realm, Spirit Realm!

In Wang Ping's cave dwelling, a silver vortex appeared silently; Wang Ping walked out with lingering fear—this trip to the Spirit Realm was too dangerous, but the Silver Stone Gate having obtained his fragment made it worthwhile.

After putting away that puppet, Wang Ping sat cross‑legged on the stone bed, silently waiting for something. Meanwhile, the Silver Stone Gate had not yet returned to Wang Ping's sea of consciousness, still floating in the air.

One person and one gate waited in silence; this wait didn't last long before the peak where Wang Ping stood suddenly shuddered.

Wang Ping thought to himself: Here it comes!

Outside, all cultivators of the Spirit Realm stared in shock at the sky; just moments ago the whole earth had been trembling, the trembling had just ended, and the sky seemed to have split open with an enormous rift.

And within the rift, red lightning flickered.

All the high‑level cultivators of the Spirit Realm turned pale with fright; above, the aura emanating from the rift was too terrifying, making them tremble involuntarily.

In the desolate land, the eyes of the imprisoned demon emperor's skull suddenly opened, his purple pupils filled with shock: "How is this possible? Why would a true spirit be drawn here?"

Not only him, but the hidden masterminds outside the Spirit Realm were equally shocked; they were just one step away from sealing the Spirit Realm inside an Immortal Treasure, after which there would be no sixth demonic land in the world!

Who would have thought that at the final moment, a cluster of terrifyingly powerful lightning flew from the depths of the void, slamming hard into the Six‑Pole Immortal Net; not only did it halt the original process, that terrifying shockwave directly killed several Body‑Union cultivators of the clan, and even a few Nascent Soul cultivators spat blood, obviously suffering severe injuries!

This scene was presented before Wang Ping by the Silver Stone Gate via special means; seeing it, Wang Ping was pleased, but couldn't help thinking of another problem:

"Transcendent Sir, won't the unicorn destroy this world?"

Silver Stone Gate: 【Hehe! Don't worry, I just used a Space Replication Technique to dump all the aura near that Immortal Treasure; the Unicorn Heaven Thunder Beast won't idly go on a killing spree—now it has identified the hidden masterminds as the true culprits! Look! If these forces lack Emperor‑level Nascent Soul combat power, even holding an Immortal Treasure they'd die! But I estimate they don't have it—at least not inside the Immortal Treasure—otherwise, seizing this world wouldn't be this slow.】

Wang Ping nodded and continued to watch the scene outside the void.

In the cosmic void, a red lightning bolt came from the depths; soon appeared a creature covered entirely in red scale armor, with a white horn on its head, a hundred‑zhang tall strange beast, its four feet trampling the void.

Its mood is obviously terrible; red lightning crackles all over its body, and the white horn on its head, resembling a peerless divine sword, is constantly condensing red lightning.

Inside the Six‑Pole Immortal Net, the Nascent Soul cultivators chiefly in charge of the Immortal Treasure, upon seeing the red giant beast standing in the void, exclaimed in shock:

"What's going on? How could a true spirit come here?"

"What kind of true spirit is this? Why have I never seen it before? That red lightning is overly domineering—it actually wounded the source of the Immortal Treasure!"

Beside them, a black‑clothed cultivator panicked: "Sir, what should we do? Should we seek help from the clan?"

That Nascent Soul cultivator nodded and said: "Quickly seek aid from the clan; we'll hold out here for a moment—don't worry, this spot is a remote corner of the cosmic void, even if a true‑spirit war erupts, no one will notice for a while!"

"Good! We'll hold on for a bit!"

Just then, the Unicorn Heaven Thunder Beast let out a roar, firing a scarlet‑red lightning bolt that shot across a thousand li of void, arriving instantly and slamming hard into the Six‑Pole Immortal Net; however, by then the Nascent Soul cultivators controlling it had already prepared defenses.

The entire Six‑Pole Immortal Net had three corners faintly glow, forming a dazzling‑colored shield that blocked the red lightning from outside.

Pfft!

The black‑clothed Nascent Soul cultivator, though aided by the Immortal Treasure in blocking the attack of the red true‑spirit beast, still suffered some injury.

A mouthful of dark‑green blood spurted out; the other cultivators were greatly startled and hurriedly called out "Sir!"

He waved his hand and said: "Ultimately, my strength is insufficient to unleash part of the Immortal Treasure's power; otherwise I wouldn't be wounded here. However, what race is this red true‑spirit beast? Its sprayed red lightning is also astonishing."

No one could answer his question, and in another direction of the cosmos, human cultivators were rapidly rushing toward this void.
