Chapter 1481 - 355: An Intruder?

Chapter 1481: Chapter 355: An Intruder?

Leaving the Demon Evil Continent, Shen Changqing was still reflecting on the conversation he had with the Demon Sword.

Unconsciously.

He distractedly asked Qingyi in the Cave Heaven, "Senior, during your time, did you ever hear of the existence of that Immortal Holy Soldier we just mentioned?"

"Never heard of it."

Qingyi shook his head.

If such an Immortal Holy Soldier existed, it would be impossible for him not to know anything about it.

After all, Immortal Holy Soldiers of that level are extremely rare. If it truly existed, he should have heard of it.

"However—"

"I have been in the Chaos Forbidden Zone for millions of years since the Emperor’s fall. During this time, I have no knowledge of any Immortal Holy Soldier emerging. In my opinion, it must have appeared during that period."

If it had appeared before himself, even if it was sealed within the Demon Evil Continent, there would have been some information leaked.

Thus.

Qingyi concluded that the Demon Sword must have appeared later as an Immortal Holy Soldier.

Shen Changqing nodded. "He said the Death Forbidden Zone wasn’t there since the opening of the Heavens. Do you think he’s just talking nonsense, or is it true?"

"Naturally, it’s nonsense. The Death Forbidden Zone has existed since the derivation of the Heavens, and there’s never been talk of a sovereign in the Death Forbidden Zone. That Immortal Holy Soldier is probably using a long imprisonment to fabricate lies, trying to break the seal with borrowed strength.

If other cultivators entered, they might actually be deceived."

Qingyi spoke with disdain for the Demon Sword.

A sealed Immortal Holy Soldier dared to speak so outrageously. If he had fully recovered, he would have suppressed it long ago.

Shen Changqing nodded.

Compared to the Demon Sword, he certainly trusted Qingyi more.

After all, Qingyi had already recognized him as master and had no reason to deceive him.

"Still, the origin of that Immortal Holy Soldier is undoubtedly extraordinary. The Death Tide is so terrifying, yet it managed to avoid the Demon Evil Continent. There must be a reason behind it.

Looking at the plainness of the Demon Evil Continent, only that Immortal Holy Soldier is truly exceptional.

Hence, I suspect the reason the Death Tide avoids the Demon Evil Continent might very well be related to it."

"The master’s words have some merit."

This time, Qingyi did not refute.

From his standpoint, Shen’s speculation had a certain logic.

Then.

Qingyi said, "But there’s one thing the master needs to understand, besides the Demon Evil Clan, the Heart Demon Clan and Black Demon Divine Clan also do not fear the Death Tide. If the Demon Evil Continent’s reason is due to the Immortal Holy Soldier, what explains the other two clans?

In my view, the situation isn’t that simple."

"What you say also makes sense."

Shen Changqing nodded.

Indeed.

If the Demon Evil Continent’s safety is due to that Immortal Holy Soldier, then how do we explain the Heart Demon Clan and the Black Demon Divine Clan? Could it be that both are overseen by Immortal Holy Soldiers too?

But the possibility of this is indeed small.

Immortal Holy Soldiers are extremely precious.

If there are three Immortal Holy Soldiers in a single Death Forbidden Zone, it would be somewhat inconceivable.

Though perplexed, he could only suppress it for the moment.

No choice.

His current strength evidently doesn’t allow him to explore too much.

Otherwise.

Shen Changqing would directly storm the Heart Demon Clan or Black Demon Divine Clan to investigate the truth, rather than guessing here.

Arriving in the Void among the Human Clan, he took a step forward, immediately disappearing from sight.

At the same time.

Within the Void Realm.

Shen Changqing was already present here.

Looking at the Human Clan Realm before him, he solemnly asked, "If the realm ascends, will it trigger any major events? Could it possibly make the Void Realm unable to conceal it?"

"Rest assured, master. The Void Realm, after all, is a Divine Monarch level formation. The Mid-Thousand World ascending to the Daqian World will cause significant commotion, but with the strength of the Void Realm, it can completely conceal the fluctuations.

Qingyi replied offhandedly.

In his opinion, such concerns were entirely unnecessary.

"Divine Monarch level formation?"

Shen Changqing paused, then said, "Meaning, if a power greater than Divine Monarch arrives, it might detect the nuances of the Void Realm?"

The exact level of the Void Realm was now clear to him.

The levels of formation, like cultivators, each matches a specific magnitude.

A formation, upon reaching a certain level, corresponds to what it can counter.

The Void Realm, since it is at the Divine Monarch level, should only conceal itself from sensing by Divine Monarch powerhouses, but against stronger existences, it likely has no effect.

Qingyi said, "There’s no problem with what the master asserts. The Void Realm is a Divine Monarch level formation, hence its limits lie in concealing the perception of ordinary Divine Monarchs.

Moreover, those who constructed the Void Realm have intricate skills but didn’t fully utilize the formation’s character, so if a Divine Monarch Perfection powerhouse arrives, they might not be fooled.

Though we needn’t worry about ordinary Divine Monarchs."

"I understand now!"

Shen Changqing took a deep breath and nodded.

He had been rather naive, thinking the presence of the Void Realm guaranteed absolute security.

However, as things stand.

The Void Realm is unafraid of ordinary Divine Monarchs, yet cannot disregard more powerful Divine Monarchs.

Even though.

Currently, the Heavens Myriad Clans are ruled by Divine Lords; Divine Monarch-level powerhouses have yet to emerge, but the Heavens have existed for countless ages, maybe somewhere, Divine Monarch-level powerhouses exist.

When that time comes.

The Human Clan might be exposed.

"It’s still a matter of strength. Now I must urgently comprehend the Three Thousand Laws to coagulate the Cave Heaven Core, otherwise, once the Human Clan is exposed in the future, it would likely mean the time of extinction for our clan!"

Shen Changqing’s eyes were heavy.

Since the Void Realm is not foolproof, it will eventually be exposed one day.

The emergence of the Overlord Divine Monarch indicates that those Divine Monarch level powerhouses might still exist.

This, in turn, added a lot of pressure on him invisibly.

However.

For now, I still have time.

"When I return to the Human Clan this time, I will first upgrade Wu Shu from a Sixth Grade Dao Arm to a Seventh Grade Dao Arm!" Shen Changqing thought silently.

A Seventh Grade Legacy Dao Arm.

Is already an existence capable of deriving the Laws.

With that, my coagulation of the Cave Heaven Core would become much easier.

Of course.

To quickly coagulate the Cave Heaven Core, the Origin Point remains the only way, and he had already planned that once he returns to the Ziyun Clan, he would find a way to slay the Divine King.

With so many Divine Kings in the Five Clans, if I can slay a portion of them, the Origin Points I would obtain surely would be substantial.

"Or rather—"

"I directly use the Divine Monarch Origin to annihilate a Divine Clan, then perhaps I could directly coagulate the Cave Heaven Core!"

Shen Changqing thought to himself.

But now is not the time to think about so many things. These matters should be considered only after solving the issues on the Human Clan’s side first.

The Divine Monarch Origin must not be lightly used,

using the Divine Monarch Origin must maximize benefits to a certain extent.

Immediately.

He headed towards the Heaven and Earth.

However.

Just as he was about to enter Heaven and Earth, the barrier of Heaven and Earth suddenly became firm, like an indestructible wall, halting Shen Changqing’s steps.

"A blockage?"

His expression was puzzled.

Soon, Shen Changqing understood the reason.

If he were of the Human Clan, entering the Human Clan Realm would naturally not face any obstruction, but the problem was that he now bore the Origin of the Ziyun Clan, so in the eyes of Heaven and Earth, he was equivalent to a foreign invader.

Thus, the Heaven and Earth barrier naturally served as a blockade.

However.

Such a level of interception could barely handle a Divine King at most.

And this.

Is because the current Heaven and Earth are much stronger than before. If it were the former Human Clan Realm, it could at most intercept a powerhouse at the Half-Step Divine King Level.

But regardless of past or present, this level of interception intensity of the Heaven and Earth barrier is of no effect to Shen Changqing.

With a casual punch, he shattered the Heaven and Earth barrier.

And at the moment the barrier shattered, Shen Changqing directly entered inside.

The next instant.

The Heaven and Earth barrier healed, resembling its initial state.

...

In the Capital City of the Imperial Court.

Gu Xing, who was reviewing memorials, suddenly felt a thump in his heart, making his expression serious.

"An enemy is coming!"

Just now.

The Heaven and Earth sent a warning, letting him know that the Heaven and Earth barrier was breached, and a mysterious powerhouse had intruded into Heaven and Earth.

In such a situation, Gu Xing had to take it seriously.

After all, the current situation of the Human Clan is delicate; a mysterious intruder could bring about the trouble of extinction.

Therefore.

He immediately took out the Myriad Lands Jade Talisman to first pass this news to Shen Changqing, and then he was going to gather the Human Clan powerhouses to prepare for combat readiness.

Fortunately, at this time, most of the Human Clan powerhouses were gathered in the Capital City, completely saving a lot of effort.

"Someone invaded?"

In the Heaven and Earth Gang Wind Layer, Shen Changqing sensed the message from the Myriad Lands Jade Talisman and his expression turned somewhat curious.

Evidently.

The other party mistook his arrival for a strongman’s invasion.

To avoid causing any jokes, he immediately sent back the corresponding message.

If he was a bit late, perhaps what greeted him would be the Human Clan’s army.

"Defender Shen—"

Gu Xing’s expression moved, his action of gathering the Human Clan powerhouses also immediately halted.

He didn’t expect.

The arriving mysterious powerhouse turned out to be Shen Changqing.

Logically speaking, his return to the Human Clan shouldn’t have triggered a Heaven and Earth alert.

While Gu Xing was secretly puzzled, he saw that in the Imperial Study, a stranger in purple suddenly appeared there.

Upon seeing the visitor.

Gu Xing’s face immediately became solemn, his eyes coldly fixated on the other: "Who are you to dare trespass the Imperial Palace!"

As he spoke, his heart was extremely serious.

When the person in purple arrived, he had no awareness of it, and although the person was clearly standing there, there was nothing perceivable in his senses.

From this, it can be seen.

The visitor must be a powerful existence.
