Ascending Immortal Island, already filled with pure source Qi, and the protection array in the Star Aperture has been activated.
Tao Qian sat cross-legged in the liquefied source Qi, looking tired as he gazed at the floating Secret Book "Chaos Soul Splitting God Transformation thod" in front of him.
Only ten days and a few hours left; he could delay no longer.
Not only did he have to attend the appointnt for "the election of the Secret Demon Sect Master," but he also had his own Dao Nightmare to contend with.
These past few days, it had only grown heavier.
After solving the troubles of the Ancestor Spirit Daoist, he spent a few days with Yunrong and the Spirit Infant before having to face reality again.
Despite having the support of the Taishang Spiritual Treasure Red Infant Divine Needle and the Toad God Tile, the terror of the nightmare clearly showed on his fatigued face.
Without comprehending the Great Dao for even a single day, he could not find release.
Thus, he sat obediently within the Star Aperture, with his physical body under the protection of the Spirit Marrow Lady.
The soul body he transford into would attend the appointnt, serving both as a trial and a search for the Dao.
"Let see what kind of Secret Demon Soul Body a dignified Spirit Treasure Daoist like myself can transform into."
"Snap"
Murmuring to himself, he clapped his hands together.
Imdiately, a radiant glow surged, and the bizarrely writhing thick Secret Book transford into a mass of black mist and black water, entering Tao Qian's body.
In an instant, Tao Qian's eyes widened, his mind was about to be engulfed by unprecedented pain, but he was suddenly exempted, though his abdon swelled loudly, bit by bit, attempting to separate from Tao Qian's Dharma body.
At the sa ti, everything from his flesh and blood, mana, to his divine skills and mories within were undergoing unusual movents.
In his mind, records erupted one by one:
[Successfully practiced the "Chaos Soul Splitting God Transformation Great thod"... soul body is undergoing division... ]
[Upon sensing the mind, this soul body has certain inclinations... ]
[This soul body is replicating the Secret Demon Inheritance... ]
[The nature of this soul body is forming... it has decided to take away the parts of the main body's character that are wantonly reckless, greedy, lecherous, and unscrupulous.]
...
A certain record along the way caused Tao Qian's expression to change slightly, and a bad premonition erged in his heart.
However, while casting, he couldn't interrupt, so he had to continue forming seals, invoking divine Qi, and when the mont arrived, he opened his mouth and said: "I invite the Daoist friend to show up!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the object within his abdon instantly fell naturally.
Soon after, a mass of flesh and blood separated from Tao Qian's body, and upon landing with a thud, there was no need for Tao Qian to break through with spellcasting.
The surface of the flesh was instantly covered with sword marks.
In the blink of an eye, demon light exploded, and from within erged a slowly walking young figure.
Even before seeing Tao Qian's face, he spoke first:
"Since the main body has invited , I shall reluctantly make an appearance."
With these words, the smoke and light dispersed, and the two ca face to face.
Because of the uniqueness of the great thod, Tao Qian had no knowledge beforehand of what kind of appearance or condition this first soul body would take upon being split off.
Until this very mont of its formal birth, Tao Qian ca to understand.
In front of him stood a handso young man exuding an ominous aura.
Though he had a human appearance, it was unclear why he emanated such sinister demonic Qi, and his facial features were sowhat akin to Tao Qian's, but anyone looking could clearly tell they were not the sa, as there was an imnse difference in appearance and aura.
This soul, despite being newly born,
sohow had already "acquired" quite the intimidating attire.
Everything from demon boots, arm armor, to clothes and equipnt, all in place, yet his upper body remained bare, covered only with tattoos of All Heavens Secret Demon, and around his neck hung a black skull necklace, further accentuated by the surrounding demon fog, evil light, and red flas, even Tao Qian himself couldn't help but exclaim.
"Ancestral Land Secret Demon Child, quite the appearance..."
Tao Qian's praise was cut short, his expression abruptly changed.
He had been too busy previously, but now he finally fully perceived all of what his first soul body possessed.
Secret Demon Sacrifice Body Sword, Summoning Demon Technique, and other copied divine secret skills were not worth ntioning.
What truly made Tao Qian show a wry smile was its character.
"Wantonly reckless, greedy, lecherous, unscrupulous... how could these have anything to do with ?"
"Indeed, such techniques stolen from Gods and Demons are bound to go awry during cultivation."
"If this soul body were released, it might bring about calamities? Perhaps it should be destroyed first, and then cultivate another?"
Just as these thoughts ford,
the "Secret Demon Soul Body" standing before Tao Qian suddenly laughed.
Striding up to him, speaking while reaching into Tao Qian's arms and waistband, it took away the Ten Thousand Demon Na List and the Ten Thousand Demon Gourd, along with other treasures and good items.
"The main body must not joke for self-amusent, know that I am you, and you are ."
"For others practicing this 'Chaos Soul Splitting Technique,' calamity would surely ensue, with the soul body acting independently, breeding ambition, certainly turning against the main body."
"But for us, this consequence has long been exempted."
"You are Tao Qian, and so am I."
"If a distinction must be drawn, it can be sumd up in one word."
"I will live more joyously and recklessly than you, Master Tao."
"Hahaha..."
With that, the Secret Demon Soul Body laughed heartily and headed directly towards the Outer Realm.
Before departing, it specifically cast a gaze full of appreciation at Tao Qian's protector, the Spirit Marrow Lady, unabashedly uttering praises in a sycophantic manner.
Throughout Tao Qian's ritual, the Spirit Marrow Lady missed not a single mont.
She naturally understood there was no difference between the two, Tao Qian remained as Tao Qian.
But upon hearing that extrely flattering praise, and then looking at Tao Qian's true form, indeed seeing this fellow, though mocked by the Secret Demon Soul Body, still had a smile at the corner of his mouth, as if his thoughts had been accurately revealed.
Spirit Marrow Lady instantly understood, and couldn't help but curse:
"This child... why cultivate such strange thods."
...
Tao Qian, or rather, simply taking the Secret Demon Inheritance, and acting on whims, Tao Qian.
Borrowing the path of Ascending Immortal Star Aperture, officially left the Longevity Realm, and the first thing that caught his eyes was still that bizarre and colorful scenery with the twisting and Flashing shadows of Source Qi.
Previously, when Tao Qian's true form ca to view the Great Abyss Origin Sea, besides curiosity and expectation, there was more caution, obviously aware of the endless dangers within.
But the soul body, however, held a different attitude. Nᴇw novel chapters are publɪshed on novèlfire
At this mont in his eyes, there was more curiosity and excitent than anything else.
However, attitude aside, apart from acting recklessly, he did not forget to replicate the true form's cunning and shaless survival tactics.
Not truly moving, probing into the dangerous origin sea.
Instead, while fumbling things on himself, he muttered:
"I am a Secret Demon Seed from the Longevity Ancestral Land!"
"The enemies that Spirit Treasure Subduing Evil Daoist offended have nothing to do with , even if they see face-to-face, they probably won't make things difficult for ."
"But the origin sea is treacherous, surely hiding many gods, demons, and evil devils that feed specifically on good demons like , tender and juicy."
"There is a shortcut, only a fool would take risks and explore."
Tao Qian said this, naturally because of the prior instructions from Jiang Luan and others.
The Great Abyss is perilous, anything could happen.
Even an [Innate God and Demon] might inexplicably die halfway.
Especially those who rush headlong without consideration are almost guaranteed certain death.
However, within the Great Abyss, there also exist nurous safe paths leading to All Heavens and Myriad Worlds and various Secret Realms, known as [Secret Paths], which are not absolutely safe, but have reduced at least ninety percent of the danger.
Those who deem themselves powerful, or feel they have strong backing, can forcibly tread through the Great Abyss, swimming across the origin sea.
But the slightly cautious ones, upon entering the abyss, will by all ans seek secret paths to avoid fierce demons.
Just like this mont!
Before Tao Qian could take out an item to open the secret path, suddenly in front of him, a brilliant light flickered.
The vast starry sky rippled, and doors suddenly appeared one after another.
Behind each door, a massive path was visible.
A large number of figures, in great haste, squeezed out of these doors, eagerly drilling into the Longevity Realm.
Tao Qian clearly saw among them were Human Clan cultivators, demons, alien species, ghosts, various clan mbers... even so weak gods and demons, like [Mountain Gods], [Water Uncles] and the like.
All with anxious faces, looking around as if being thieves.
What puzzled Tao Qian the most was the leading cultivators ahead, though unfamiliar to the eye.
But from their aura, they seed to have so fate with the Spirit Treasure Sect.
In overseas territories, Spirit Treasure is dominant.
But the Spirit Treasure Sect did not occupy all the Blessing Treasure Land and allowed other cultivators to occupy, resulting in many Daoist lineages and sects.
They, however, have a general term.
Overseas Immortal Cultivators!
This group includes humans, but more are from the Water Clan.
At this mont, it was indeed them.
Only to see these overseas immortal cultivators guiding nurous oddly shaped beings, obviously from the outer realm, clan mbers and demons from All Heavens and Myriad Worlds into the realm, while lowering their voices, saying:
"Hurry, do not delay."
"This secret path opens right outside the Spirit Treasure Sect's star domain, and apart from the [Ultimate Struggle eting], the sect's cultivators generally won't co outside the realm, making it convenient for you to use this path to enter the realm, but all must rember, once entering the Eastern Sea of Longevity Realm, you must follow the rules, that [Ancestor God Forbidden Technique], although gradually thinning, still has jurisdiction over the overseas, and can monitor you."
"Moreover, the patrol immortals of the Primordial Sect, if discovered by the forbidden technique, there are still loopholes to exploit, but if caught by them, you will certainly be sent back."
Upon hearing this.
Those clan mbers and demons, weak gods and demons, while hurrying, instinctively replied:
"We understand, thank you Longevity Immortal Envoy."
"We are here to escape disaster, naturally aware of the need to follow the rules."
"Is the Longevity Realm truly as wonderful as the rumors say? Truly without any Evil Gods slumbering? Won't suddenly awaken to devour everything?"
A group of overseas immortal cultivators suddenly heard such a murmur from an outer realm clan mber.
They exchanged glances and spoke one after another:
"What's there to exaggerate? You must know the Longevity Realm is the progenitor land of all gods of the Human Clan, those Evil Gods might slumber in any world, but not in this realm, absolutely not."
"Not to ntion anything else, just the three supre gods of the Daoist are enough to protect the Longevity Realm's peace for billions of years."
"Now, as All Heavens are turbulent, all gods are awakening, to survive, one can only go to great worlds like Mountain and Sea, Longevity, although the Mountain and Sea Realm is also large, its dangers far exceed Longevity Realm, and even the gods and demons residing within often require blood food, Pure Lands like Longevity Realm are already few."
"Rest assured, once you successfully enter the realm, as long as you stay in our sects for a few years and cleanse your identity, earn so resources, your future will be extrely bright."
"Alas, in the end, still have to do nial labor."
The last sentence was evidently an involuntary sigh from an outer realm clan mber.
Who would have expected that upon saying this, it imdiately drew the anger of several immortal cultivators.
Cold laughs echoed successively, mocking unreservedly:
"Want to preserve life and yet be unwilling to pay? Where in the world is there such a good thing?"
"If you don't want to join our sects, why co to borrow the secret path into the realm?"
"If you had enough resources or backing, you could completely seek the Primordial Sect, or Si Xixin, Zhang Jinluan and those people, righteously migrating into the Longevity Realm, not only avoiding any nial labor but might even gain so Cave Heaven Blessed Land, settling down and establishing lineages, wouldn't that be wonderful?"
