Chapter 295: Immortal Domain, Immortal Domain!
Boom!
The final bolt of lightning dissipated into nothingness; the Qi and blood of the Great Accomplishment Saint Body were enough to tear the heavens and earth apart, and the Universe seemed to tremble, struggling to bear such terrifying power.
The edge of the Universe seemed on the verge of shattering, as if it could no longer hold on, yet Zhang Xuan only shook his head lightly as he watched.
From his fingertips flew another wisp of Origin from the Ghost Lord's body, and the moment it appeared, it was absorbed by this heaven and earth.
Then, the heaven and earth that had seemed to be trembling instantly stabilized, and even the Heavenly Heart Imprint of the Great Accomplishment Saint Body achieving the status of Great Emperor was concealed.
Seeing this, the Great Accomplishment Saint Body couldn't help but twitch his brows, and Gai Jiuyou also shook his head.
"I don't know if it's my imagination, but I feel like this heaven and earth is more active than before; it seems to have truly come alive."
Just moments ago, this heaven and earth of the Universe had actually pretended it couldn't bear the presence of two contemporary Great Emperors, as if it were about to collapse, but it was all a ruse, merely to beg for a few benefits from Zhang Xuan.
This state of possessing a hint of sentience truly left Gai Jiuyou and the Great Accomplishment Saint Body stunned; it was just like a pet puppy, wagging its tail to seek a reward from its master.
"It is not your imagination."
Zhang Xuan sensed it carefully for a moment, then nodded and said: "As contemporary Great Emperors, your perception of heaven and earth is precise and direct; this state is not an illusion."
"Originally, the heaven and earth shouldn't be like this, but because I used too much Origin from the Foreign Realm to feed back into this world, it gained a bit of the characteristic of being alive. The heaven and earth is further growing and recovering, and thus its intelligence has increased somewhat."
Zhang Xuan left more unsaid; he suspected that by integrating the shattered Origin of the Heavenly Dao from the Shenmu World into this world, he had caused this world to occasionally take on some characteristics of the Shenmu World's Heavenly Dao.
Of course, it was only a very faint trace; after all, the essence of the Zhetian Universe itself was quite high, so it was normal for it to carry a few traits after swallowing the Origin of other worlds.
But it would never become evil like the Heavenly Dao in the Shenmu World.
It was mostly just a bit more sentience; stones from other hills can serve to polish the jade of this one—it would only learn a little, but its true essence would remain unchanged.
The essence of the Zhetian Universe remained the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths of the Luan Gu Era.
"Is it just a faint change? This change is too great; it can even actively help us conceal the anomalies of becoming Great Emperors, the heavenly secrets are disrupted, and even with the Immortal Path opening, I cannot calculate it in my current state. You call this just a little?"
Gai Jiuyou could not understand it, and was even deeply shocked.
"Small matter, small matter. The next part is the real priority; the Immortal Path is about to open, shouldn't we prepare? Let's stop considering these issues for now and prepare for matters related to the Immortal Path."
Gai Jiuyou wanted to say more, but seeing that Zhang Xuan did not want to discuss this topic further, he opened his mouth, then swallowed the doubtful words in his heart.
"Then let's prepare for the situation regarding the Immortal Path. But how did you manage to fake the Immortal Path? Even if the heaven and earth helps you forge such anomalies, the Immortal Domain and that Immortal Path cannot be faked."
Zhang Xuan only smiled and shook his head: "I naturally have my own methods."
"This time, I estimate we can resolve a large portion of the pressure, and it will be much easier afterward."
Gai Jiuyou was puzzled, but still silently adjusted his state, and the Great Accomplishment Saint Body did the same.
In the Chat Group, someone was already replying.
Chen Nan: 【What? Dragons, phoenixes, and qilin? I do have a dragon and a phoenix by my side; if you could take this rogue dragon away, I would be absolutely happy.】
Zhang Xuan: 【No need for that, no need for that. Just catch me a few normal dragons; that rogue dragon sounds a bit too roguish, I don't think I can handle it.】
Although Zhang Xuan had never been to the Shenmu World, he still had an impression of the rogue dragon, or rather, the Zijin Shenlong.
The origin of the Zijin Shenlong was also quite remarkable; he was a Heavenly Tier figure from the ancient era, only to be reincarnated after death.
He turned back into a Zijin Shenlong, and was extremely unreliable.
Zhang Xuan did not want to invite this ancestor over.
Zhang Xuan: 【Just catch some normal dragons, phoenixes, and qilin; normal ones will do, forget the rest.】
Chen Nan: 【I think the ones around me are all quite normal. By the way, I remember you practice the Swallowing Heaven Demonic Art, right? Can you help me digest something?】
【I met Dugu Baitian, and he said his cultivation technique has reached a very profound realm; now he doesn't need the Taiji God-Demon Diagram, and mainly doesn't need physical things like the Shenmo Lingyuan. Now, the Origin within the Shenmo Lingyuan still needs him to handle it.】
【If possible, would you like to come over and pack all of this away, or should I just pack it up and throw it over to you?】
Zhang Xuan: 【...】
Does he really think he's a garbage disposal plant? Throwing everything his way. However, hearing Chen Nan say this, he was still a bit interested.
No matter what, it was still a wisp of Origin from the deaths of Gods and Demons; although not much, his Small World needed to grow, and he would never turn away such offerings.
The more that came, the better; he would never refuse.
Zhang Xuan: 【I can handle this. Also, don't you have a lack of suitable dragons, phoenixes, or qilin on hand? Then bring me a few dragon and phoenix corpses as well; preferably ancient Heavenly Dragons, I like those.】
Chen Nan: 【Deal!】
Chen Nan agreed so quickly that it even gave Zhang Xuan a strange feeling.
"Did I ask for too little just now? This agreement was too decisive."
Doubts arose in his heart, but asking for more was not Zhang Xuan's style.
Zhang Xuan: 【Then let's proceed with the exchange. I will teach you the first and second forms of the Tathagata Palm. Of course, if you want more, including the general outline of the Tathagata Palm, we can continue to trade later.】
Chen Nan: 【No problem, I am very satisfied.】
Simply like that, another transaction was completed, and Zhang Xuan felt it was not bad.
But looking at the current situation, it seemed not quite perfect enough.
Just as he paused for a moment, Chen Nan seemed impatient, and two massive Shenmo Lingyuan, including their related graveyards, were packed and sent over.
Ding, Chen Nan has sent you Shenmo Lingyuan ×2!
Zhang Xuan raised an eyebrow; one of these two Shenmo Lingyuan was the one where Chen Nan was born, and the other was hidden in the Western Continent.
If one were to talk about the Shenmo Lingyuan where Chen Nan was born, back when Zhang Xuan first obtained the Swallowing Heaven Demonic Art, the strength and quality of this Shenmo Lingyuan would have been considered quite outstanding.
After all, the weakest in the Shenmo Lingyuan at that time had reached the Seventh Tier, figures who could shatter the void with martial arts.
Of course, that was the Seventh Tier of the Shenmu World; converted to the Chat Group's standards, it was roughly at the Tier 4 to Tier 5 level.
Those with stronger power were roughly at the Tier 5 to Tier 6 level, and Seventh Tier figures were basically rare, with perhaps only a few in one graveyard.
They were top-tier figures back then, but looking at it now, it was a bit lacking.
"I can only say it's barely satisfactory; putting it in the Immortal Domain would be a bit embarrassing."
Zhang Xuan took two looks, packed up all those whose strength was only at the Seventh or Eighth Tier of the Shenmu World—that is, figures at the Immortal Martial Realm and God King level—and let their Origin be refined to strengthen his Small World.
What remained were the graveyards of those in the God Emperor realm of the Shenmu World and those approaching the Heavenly Tier.
Looking at it this way, the number of figures within the Shenmo Lingyuan has suddenly decreased by a lot.
Many tombstones have fallen silently, all being filled into the earth, digested and absorbed by the Small World.
However, looking at the overall strength this way, it is much more aesthetically pleasing all of a sudden.
It is roughly equivalent to a graveyard for figures at the level of Great Saint to Great Emperor.
As for that Shenmo Lingyuan originating from the Western world, its overall treatment is much better compared to before.
After all, they are graveyards left behind from even more ancient times, and the overall strength of the figures within is also higher; there is no shortage of God Emperors and even Heavenly Tier figures.
Zhang Xuan also saw within it the Mysterious Finger Bone that was originally supposed to suppress the entire Eighteen Levels of Hell.
That section of Mysterious Finger Bone is already as crystalline as jade, white throughout, and emitting a powerful aura.
At the same time, on the other side, there is also a tombstone stained with nine drops of fresh blood, which nimbly leaps and rotates within the graveyard, suppressing the entire Shenmo Lingyuan.
Zhang Xuan took a look and did not pay much attention to it, arranging them all within this newborn Small World of his.
It looks much more active compared to before.
A Qilin and a Phoenix shuttle through this Small World, and at the same time, one patch of graveyard after another stands in this area.
"Looking at the current situation, the flavor is still a bit lacking, but it already has a bit of the Immortal Domain's flavor."
Zhang Xuan thought for a moment, twisted the bones and skeletons of the Demon Lord together, fashioned them into a graveyard, and buried them in the center of the first Shenmo Lingyuan.
The overall appearance suddenly became much more stable.
"This aspect is about ready, but there are still too few dragons, phoenixes, and Qilins. Should I find Xiao Chen to handle it?"
Zhang Xuan rested his chin in his hand, thinking of Xiao Chen in the Chang Sheng Jie.
But after thinking about it, he shook his head; compared to the pure-blooded creatures in other worlds, the number of dragons, phoenixes, and Qilins in the Chang Sheng Jie is also extremely scarce.
There is often only one pure-blooded True Dragon; oh, that is not called a True Dragon, that is called an Ancestor Dragon.
As for other non-pure-blooded creatures, catching them and bringing them into the Immortal Domain still lacks something; it doesn't look quite right, and there is always a feeling of it being a fake, shoddy knock-off.
"How about going to the world of Ascension After to lend a hand?"
Zhang Xuan rubbed his chin, thinking of the world of Ascension After.
But thinking carefully, in the world of Ascension After, dragons, phoenixes, and Qilins are even rarer.
There are only the Four Symbols, and when the power of the Four Symbols unites, it is invincible in heaven and on earth; no one can compare to it.
Wanting the dragons, phoenixes, and Qilins from the world of Ascension After is simply wishful thinking.
"I have to give up on this directly. The combined power of the Four Symbols can even fight a God King. The Main God fell back then precisely because of the Four Symbols uniting. The Four Symbols of Ascension After are too high-end; I can't afford to provoke them."
Although he was muttering this, Zhang Xuan looked at the empty Immortal Domain and was still a bit troubled.
Having rich Immortal Substance and Changsheng Wuzhi is enough to fool figures below the Great Emperor, but it is a bit harder to fool a Great Emperor.
It is not even just a bit harder; it is much harder, and the difficulty is extremely high.
That group of old monsters in the Forbidden Zone are not to be trifled with; the time they calculate is not the correct time or the correct place to begin with.
To fool them, one must spend more thought and energy. Zhang Xuan thought carefully, but it was hard to think of a suitable plan.
"If it really doesn't work, I'll just follow the current model, place the Zhu Xian Four Swords inside, and kill as many as I can trick. If I trick too many, I'll just be cautious, ignore them for now, close the Small World, and let them circle around inside the Small World."
Zhang Xuan dragged his chin and made the decision lightly, but he still hadn't fully committed. After thinking about it, he asked for help in the Chat Group.
Zhang Xuan: 【Brothers, give me a chance, give me a chance. I imitated the method of creating a Small World from the Shenmu World to create a Small World.
【Then I took some Immortal Substance from various neighboring worlds and disguised it as an Immortal Domain. Now I want to trick the Supreme beings in the Forbidden Zone into coming in, but I feel this scam is not yet perfect and want to perfect it further.
【There can't be any problems here. If there are problems, I'll be beaten to death directly. Do you brothers have any good solutions? Waiting online, urgent, urgent, urgent!】
As soon as the message was sent, the previously quiet Chat Group suddenly became active again.
Zhang Sanfeng: 【I recognize every single character of the Daoist friend's words individually, but when they are put together, I cannot recognize them at all.
【I don't understand, but I am greatly shocked.】
Qiao Feng: 【I feel that I am too far from the Daoist friend's world. The Daoist friend has allowed me to catch a glimpse of the true world of Immortals. As for a solution, I am truly powerless.】
Xiong Ba: 【Daoist friend, can you take me along for your Small World's Ascension? I am honest and loyal.】
Zhang Xuan skipped these trash-like words directly, too lazy to pay attention. It was simply absurd, a bunch of trash.
Meng Qi: 【Damn, fellow countryman, you've already reached this step? Incredible, incredible. I even participated in this, and looking at it now, there really is a sense of holiness and history.】
Zhang Xuan: 【Stop looking, stop looking, give some help.】
Zhang Xuan glanced at the outside world and made the entrance to his Small World expand by another two points, causing the area of the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land to crack even more.
More Immortal Substance flowed out from that area. Figures with little lifespan living outside the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land smelled the strange immortal mist, watched the Qilin walking and the Phoenix spreading its wings in the hazy mist of the Immortal Domain entrance, and were dazzled and mesmerized for a moment.
"My lifespan, my lifespan has really increased. I have stopped aging. No, I am moving toward my younger years."
The substance flowing out of the Immortal Domain is not special, but after smelling a mouthful, they naturally felt as light as a swallow. Those who had reached the end of their lives were actually recovering bit by bit, and even their gray hair had black roots appearing.
This is the greatest miracle of life.
