Cultivation Starts from Killing Pigs

Chapter 427 - 347: Moon Palace Immortal Sect, Ancient Mirror Star Map

They have already become Immortals, and even though they don’t possess Zhang Kui’s powerful Immortal Skills, using Domain Power to deal with mundanities is easy enough.

After a few breaths, the Floating Island returned to a state of calm.

Yuan Huang did not take action but flew up to the Immortal Sect archway.

There were still many remnants of large chunks of strange tumor flesh within the archway. Yuan Huang saw them and understood that these were likely used by the Monarchs of the Strange to hide for countless ages before being awakened again.

Yuan Huang stared at the strange tumor flesh thoughtfully and then looked up at the massive Blood Moon, "This is how it is above the Immortal Sect, so I fear the Moon Palace won’t be stable either."

The Cyan Flood Dragon also looked serious, "Everyone must be very cautious. Ordinary strangeness isn’t much to say, but we’re afraid of the existence of Immortal-level strangeness."

"I’m more concerned about this than the strange,"

City Lord Jin stared at the Immortal Sect, curiosity filled his eyes, "This Immortal Sect connects various Star Realms, and its size is so massive. When it turns, it must be earthshattering. Why does it seem no different from ordinary objects?"

Yuan Huang slightly shook his head, "Don’t meddle with it, the Sect Leader instructed that we mustn’t recklessly touch it. He will handle it himself later. Let’s move, let’s first check the situation on that Blood Moon."

With a command, everyone immediately returned to the Starship, and with dazzling flames, the Starship quickly sailed toward the Blood Moon.

On the Moon, there is no Reincarnation, and naturally, no Star Array forms. After the Starship neared, it flew through quickly, the blood-red sandy earth below rapidly retreated like floating light and shadow, and everyone’s expression turned grave.

In the shadows of many of the Moon’s Underworld’s craters, they are all piled with huge strange tumors. If one approached, they fear it would immediately spawn the Black Tide and Monarch of the Strange.

"Where on earth did these things come from?"

Great Venerate Toad felt somewhat displeased, "Why does it feel like they’re everywhere on the Underworld moon? It’s going to take a lot of effort."

Yuan Huang’s eyes flashed with a blood-red light, "They likely migrated here after the destruction of the Immortal Dynasty. Let’s go first to the Mortal World, then later come back to handle this."

Everyone agreed unanimously.

They would not forget that those Starships on the Moon Palace’s Mortal World orbit are the primary objective of this venture.

Within the Starship, Shen Xu quickly found a node passage. With a wave of the hand, a massive white Light Sect appeared, and the Starship plunged into it, disappearing into the Moon Palace Underworld.

Just after they left, the tumors inside several craters suddenly ruptured, yet what emerged was neither the Monarch of the Strange nor the Black Tide, but rather figures clad in decayed robes, covered in abnormal tumors...

Buzz!

On the Moon Palace’s Mortal World orbit, a path of Underworld suddenly appeared as a patch of black light, followed by the Starship quietly floating out.

And around them were Starships of various sizes standing silently in the void, some collided and broken, but many more remained intact, silent like Ghost Ships.

"Haha, now we won’t be short on Divine Materials..."

Great Venerate Toad smiled broadly.

"That’s right."

"Look at that vessel, I’ve seen it on the "Starship Regulation Map"; it should be used for transporting supplies. Even if the core is damaged, it can serve as a reference..."

Everyone was in a good mood and started discussing.

Now, everyone knows the Starship plan is crucial to the Divine Dynasty. With the "Starship Regulation Map" and numerous unique Divine Dynasty methods, the only constraint is materials.

Just then, the Cyan Flood Dragon and City Lord Jin suddenly froze.

Several thousand meters away, there was a massive Starship, its Boat Pavilion resembling a palace. Though the bow sustained considerable damage, it was evident it was no ordinary Immortal’s ride.

More importantly, a dilapidated small Starship was snugly nestled next to it, precisely the one from Huo Continent that had once flown away...

...

Fallen Immortal Mountain, towering and majestic, displays myriad phenomena.

Beside the plains below the mountain, several cultivators from the Kaiyuan Divine Dynasty’s Earth Pavilion were standing and observing. They had received special orders to surveil Fallen Immortal Mountain and immediately report any unusual occurrences.

This area was already outside the Divine Land Barrier, extremely perilous, naturally not something they could handle. Thankfully, the orders also instructed not to approach unwisely.

"No movement for half a month, truly boring."

"Exactly, and I don’t know what’s the purpose of keeping this area..."

"No more talking, there’s above arrangement."

While various endeavors of the Divine Dynasty were vibrant, they were guarding a dead mountain, inevitably leading to complaints sparked by boredom.

Just then, a spine-chilling Qi Mechanism suddenly arrived, followed by white mist frantically rolling on the Fallen Immortal Mountain, as if something was attempting to break through.

"Quick, quick report this!"

Not mentioning their astonishment, inside Fallen Immortal Mountain was quite bustling.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Accompanied by persistent booming sounds, the cracks in the mountain-like Ancient Bronze Mirror grew wider and wider, even some areas had detached with a crunch.

Inside, Zhang Kui simultaneously formed a Spell with hand gestures, using the "Wall Opening Skill" to break open a path, while releasing his Void Domain to crazily devour the Golden Light of Law, unknowingly delving into the core.

Boom!

With another massive jolt, the central cabin was suddenly exposed before his eyes.

Roar!

The cabin contained numerous Immortal Corpses and strange entities, which rushed at him with a bizarre curse-like power after the copper walls shattered, but before they could approach Zhang Kui’s Void Domain, they disintegrated into ash mid-air.

Zhang Kui didn’t pay attention, glanced around, and focused his gaze on the massive bronze well in the center.

The thing was somewhat unusual, seemingly the core of the entire Ancient Bronze Mirror, where the white fog of the Little World Domain inside flowed like tides but had none of the ferocity outside, turning peaceful and harmless.

Zhang Kui’s eyes narrowed slightly, surprised.

This Ancient Bronze Mirror was extraordinarily powerful, almost like a magnified version of an Immortal, possessing its own complete Little World, but he also noticed it had no spirit at all, merely executing commands mechanically, which is why it tangled with the Immortal Ship for millennia.

It seems the periphery is just defense; if one can control here, could one then control the entire Ancient Bronze Mirror?

Having thought this, Zhang Kui promptly examined carefully, discovering large and small, round orderly arrayed runes engraved along the bronze well’s rim, abstract and distorted like those outside.

Could this be the control device?

Zhang Kui’s curiosity surged, he casually pressed one in the air, and one rune instantly lit up with white light.

Buzz!

The whole central cabin suddenly vibrated with a buzz, a vast amount of Dream Realm white fog surged out from the well, swiftly filling the entire cabin, and the surroundings instantly transformed.

As the white fog dispersed, a deep starry sky unfolded, with the stars spinning amid boundless Profound Light rising, and a Thousand-Handed Taoist stood on the river of stars, his face hazy and unclear, yet blood-red eyes on each hand seemed to gaze at the world, cold and devoid of emotion.

However, Zhang Kui seemed unconcerned, instead, observing the surroundings.

Here was devoid of any murderous intent, and the Thousand-Handed Taoist was merely an illusion; the crucial part was the surrounding starry spectacle.

Zhang Kui had obtained the Formless Celestial Star Realm Map inside the Immortal Ship and recognized it at a glance; surprisingly, it was a complete Star Map, although apart from Formless Heaven, none were familiar.

The Ancient Bronze Mirror was a tool of the Eternal Immortal Dynasty for traversing the Star Sea; this ought to be their Star Map, good heavens, fashioned like a virtual scene, more advanced than Kaiyuan Divine Dynasty’s Starships.

An idea suddenly flashed in Zhang Kui’s mind.

There are experts in Dream Realms on his side too, the women at the Black River Water Mansion cultivate through Dream Realms, though they also assist the Divine Path in managing the Divine Soldiers and Generals space, they haven’t tapped into their full potential.

Yet this Ancient Bronze Mirror has inspired him; it can be transplanted onto each Starship, with the Illusionary Star Map being just one aspect.

The Starship Fleet has a major issue that once it leaves the Divine Continent’s Divine Path network range, communication cannot be established, entirely reliant on stationed Mahayana for mutual sound transmission.

Profound Pavilion has researched countless methods but failed, yet it can be perfectly resolved via the Power of Dreams, using an illusionary manner.

Broadly speaking, the Divine Path network can be upgraded so that all Divine Dynasty residents within range can connect through dreams, communicate, and exchange Taoist Skills, akin to the internet world in a previous life.

"Ha, this journey yields substantial gains..."

Having solved the Starship Fleet’s dilemma, Zhang Kui was in high spirits, his eyes flickered, sending a Divine Thought to the Taoist’s phantom:

"Where are we now?"

Unexpectedly, the Taoist phantom immediately moved, extending a finger, instantly illuminating a star among the myriad stars.

"Is this the Celestial Essence Star?"

Zhang Kui observed closely, confirming it indeed was, with not only the Celestial Essence Star’s moon but also several nearby stars, with perfectly accurate positions.

Then he frowned slightly.

The Celestial Essence Star, unexpectedly, was at the very center of the massive Star Map!
