Cultivation Starts from Killing Pigs

Chapter 432 - 352: Investigating the Moon Palace, Disassembling the Immortal Ship

The scarlet starry sky, with massive celestial bodies slowly rotating.

If Zhang Kui were here, comparing with the Star Map he obtained, he would discover that this celestial body neighboring the Celestial Essence Star was once also a Life Star, surrounded by the Star Array, nurturing countless creatures.

But now, the Mortal World has long become a desert, filled with deathly silence, while the Underworld is a collection of towering, tumor-like mountains, forming a bizarre world of the Underworld.

This is the scene after the destruction of a Life Star.

In front of the highest tumor-like mountain on the star, the starship of the Deceitful Immortals slowly lands, stirring up a cloud of dust.

Several figures wrapped in black light appear instantly, hovering in the air, gazing at the tumor mountain. The Qi Mechanism emanating from inside is horrifying, yet they remain unfazed.

"Another one completed..."

The black-robed old man reveals a sinister smile, "Fellow Taoists, let’s begin."

The others nod, their forms flickering as they each float around the massive tumor, forming spells with their hands. The small World Domains enveloping them grow larger, beginning to connect with each other.

From afar, the sky above gradually forms a bizarre array of black light, with black patterns manifesting in space, completely encasing the tumor mountain.

As if sensing something, the gigantic tumor suddenly trembles violently, then explodes with a bang, revealing a massive black light. In the center is a grotesque being with a humanoid upper body and a thousand-legged worm-like lower body, nearly matching the size of the Guardian Ape Divine General.

An Immortal Level anomaly!

At the Celestial Essence Star Immortal Sect ruins, an old lair of these anomalies once revealed one, fortunately, it was newly born and was killed by Zhang Kui’s plan to sacrifice the starship’s core. Unexpectedly, there is another one here.

And this one’s fate is equally tragic.

Once the Deceitful Immortals’ arrays connect, the sky turns blood red, with countless voices howling madly, distorting the surrounding space and causing all images to spin.

Roar!

The central Immortal Level anomaly lets out a painful howl, its Domain’s black light seemingly being extracted by some force, transforming into endless black fog spreading towards the Deceitful Immortals.

The Deceitful Immortals take a deep, intoxicated breath, their pure black eyes filled with greed and brutality.

They are actually absorbing this Immortal Level anomaly!

With space constantly shaking and twisting, the agonized howls from above grow even more intense, as the size of the Immortal Level anomaly withers more and more, soon unable to even struggle.

Boom!

Scattered ashes fall from the sky, and the Immortal Level anomaly disappears completely.

The Deceitful Immortals disperse the array, immediately sitting cross-legged in midair, as veins flashing with black light extend like living creatures beneath their skin.

After a while, the black-robed old man slowly opens his eyes, a smile curling at his lips, "After the Emperor Venerable went missing, the Twelve Immortal Monarchs gradually became violent, we’ve suffered immensely, our lives like ants, forced to cultivate the sudden proliferation of the Yinji Scripture, yet who knew it would open up a new world."

"Indeed..."

The female Deceitful Immortal, who seized Hu Meiniang’s body, also smiles, "The laws of the Underworld anomalies are unfixed, merging and devouring each other can lead to immortality, with no end in sight, all we lack is time."

The ancient race with the blue face and sharp fangs has a chilling look in its eyes, "Now with Immortal Sect pathways destroyed everywhere, who knows to what level other Deceitful Immortals have grown, all because of that Immortal Queen, delaying us!"

"Rest assured, as long as the Red Pigeon Divine Son exterminates the native Immortal Path, we can cultivate at ease, that treacherous bird will leave once it swallows the Sun Star."

The black-robed old man nods, then glances at the figures in the tumors around, shaking his head slightly, "What a pity, the Great Star Festival’s plan ultimately failed, these Shadow Soldiers hold no future and can only serve as consumables."

"What does it matter, destiny is ultimately on our side..."

...

Time flies, and another week passes.

Ye Fei gazes silently out the porthole, as the scarlet starry sky and Blood Moon gradually recede, and the Celestial Essence Star draws nearer, with starships occasionally bursting through the black fog with silvery flames, heading for the stars.

He shakes his head slightly, a trace of helplessness in his eyes.

During this period, the anomalous Moon Palace legion has harassed a few more times, each time larger in scale, but with the Divine Dynasty’s extensive modifications to starships, they now handle it easily, a great opportunity to earn merit points.

He has already fantasized about upgrading the starship; he heard that the Profound Pavilion has now developed a Dual Core Array, greatly enhancing power.

Captains of many teams share the same idea.

If the starship was merely a weapon on the Celestial Essence Star, upon reaching this vast starry sky, one realizes the majesty and wonder of the Cosmos, driving one to madness.

Unfortunately, despite constant caution, the consequences of prolonged navigation in the Underworld Starry Sky finally manifest, with many team members’ Divine Souls beginning to experience irregularities, hallucinations springing forth, forcing them to return to the Divine Continent for recuperation.

This is also the current norm for many teams.

Upon this thought, Ye Fei spoke in a deep voice:

"Fellow Taoists, upon our return, dedicate yourselves to cultivation. Do not skimp on spending the allocated merit points, take advantage of the Pills available, don’t miss any Cultivation Skills."

"The starry sky is fraught with dangers, and the Divine Dynasty’s warfare may never cease. Next time, let’s aim to stay longer, and become the first team to equip our starship with dual cores!"

"Dual Core!"

The team’s enthusiasm ignites instantly.

Thereupon, the starship dives headlong into the black mist of the Star Array.

Meanwhile, on the Underworld orbit of the Celestial Essence Star, nearly two hundred starships are patrolling everywhere. After the Divine Dynasty urgently allocated two separate Divine Court Bells as relays, a small Divine Path network was constructed, no longer as embarrassed as before.

In the starry sky, there are also many starship wrecks, remnants after the anomalous legion was burned by the True Sun Fire, with starships conducting salvage and recovery operations.
