Chapter 3537 Immortal Naggus

"This ability is exactly what Anran and I have been researching!"

Zhang Xuezhou made a rather perilous escape from the secret place and shared his experience with everyone.

Ren Yisheng's expression was extremely complicated. His development in the Dragon Elephant Fighting Technique was about manipulating and disrupting the mind.

This is a field that Ren Yisheng has never fully explored, but it was completed by other cultivators long ago, and even caused the minds of top cultivators to be disordered for hundreds of years.

This difference left Ren Yisheng feeling somewhat suffocated.

Zhang Xuezhou and Ren Anran's approach was clearly more correct. Compared to Ren Yisheng and others who kept researching, appropriately introducing relevant content from other worlds would certainly avoid repeating the mistakes of others.

"Another wasteland!"

Li Qi looked on with a hint of regret.

It's not surprising that the space of these fire meteor beings is a ruin. If the area where these beings live had sufficient resources, they wouldn't have driven fire meteors to explore this world.

While the No. 2 sinkhole may seem to have become a sacred place for cultivation, it was once a desolate wasteland, filled with toxic smoke that made it impossible for people to survive.

Of all the people, only Nagoth was overjoyed. He could feel that the Immortal Gem no longer had an owner, and he couldn't help but brand it on the spot.

Flames spewed from Nagos's mouth, constantly striking the Immortal Gem in his hand.

A blurry human figure kept appearing on the red, crystalline gem, gradually transforming into the likeness of Nagoth.

Some listened to Zhang Xuezhou recount the situation in the secret place, while many others frequently glanced at Nagos, trying to learn from him so that they wouldn't miss the opportunity in the future.

"It's not exactly useless!"

Zhang Hao had been imprisoned in the Kunlun Holy Land for nearly a thousand years under a vow, and he knew very well the correct way to use this secret place.

Cultivators with the ability to travel through distorted and broken spaces are extremely rare. A secluded and abandoned secret place is a natural prison.

Immortality and pseudo-immortality—anything thrown into this secret place by Zhang Xuezhou would be subjected to the longest and most prolonged torture.

Nagoth's immortality has not yet been successfully imprinted, but the prison has already been prepared in advance. If Nagoth breaks his promise or becomes arrogant after entering immortality, Zhang Hao thinks it is not hard to guess what will happen to him.

Each person had their own thoughts, and because of Nagoth's attempt to become immortal, they were forced to huddle in this small area filled with blood and severed limbs.

After Zhang Xuezhou finished his brief introduction, everyone listening could only turn their attention to Nagos.

"If I could breathe fire, I'd definitely steal that gem and use it to breathe fire!"

Zhou Rihui muttered something under his breath, which made Nagos sweat and increase the speed at which he breathed fire.

"Stop talking like an old man, and don't have ulterior motives. Be a man of your word!"

Zhou Xin flicked Zhou Rihui's head with his finger, the crisp sound like metal striking metal causing everyone to move closer together and take a few steps away from the father and son.

"Focus your mind and refine it carefully," Zhang Hao said. "We're not going to be thinking about something as small as this!"

"Your virtues are noble, and I truly wish to possess you," Zhang Huang said dejectedly, "but unfortunately, I can't breathe fire!"

"You've taken the path of brute force and barbarism. The immortal gems you acquire cannot contain the elements of wind, water, fire, and earth, otherwise they won't be compatible with your body!"

Huang Daoxian lazily added a sentence, which immediately attracted Zhang Huang's attention, and he kept asking about the relevant information about the immortal gem that was suitable for him.

The ways to obtain pseudo-immortality differ in each world. If one cannot obtain the Great Dao of Immortality, this is the best choice. Even Zhang Hao listened attentively.

The difficulty in obtaining Immortal Gems lies in the first step: how to acquire Void Gold.

If one cannot find such a treasure by chance, one cannot pave the way for the next step, and even if one's spiritual power is strong enough to probe into the void, it will be of no use.

Huang Daoxian's previous entanglement with Zhang Xuezhou stemmed from this: he believed that he had paid for the Void Gold, while Zhang Xuezhou and others had received huge returns by placing their spiritual sustenance on the Void Gold, and therefore he was entitled to a share of the benefits.

"That means obtaining Void Gold, and then using your divine soul to reside within it to travel to the void!"

"Correct!"

"Then guide and induce with spiritual power?"

"Yes!" "Doesn't that sound like fishing?"

"What you said isn't wrong. Void Gold is like bait to obtain Immortal Gems, mental power is the fishing line, and we humans are the rod. What Immortal Gems we can catch and whether we can retrieve them depends on our individual abilities!"

Everyone asked questions at once, and Huang Daoxian answered patiently.

If they can survive Qin Meng's half-step ascendant hunt, and if Zhang Xuezhou and the others can explore the void to obtain the Immortal Gem, they still have some hope for the future.

A long enough time allows individual strength to accumulate and develop to its limit, as well as various void resources. If they can find new world coordinates, they can even command secret realms to escape this world and then seek development in another world.

Of course, if many people can persevere and wait until this world generates its origin a second time, they can also continue to seek the origin in this world and thus obtain the Great Dao and immortality.

Huang Daoxian was prepared to go all out, and he didn't mind sharing more of his plans.

"All our current assumptions are based on the premise of survival!"

Huang Daoxian finally wiped the dog's mouth and gave a summary.

Even the best longevity can only be enjoyed while alive. One can either seek an opportunity to kill Qin Meng, a half-step ascendant, or join the strongest group to fight against him and preserve one's life, or live a life of hiding in some secret place to avoid disaster.

Huang Daoxian ranked the various possibilities in his mind, which also involved his future survival.

He glanced at the crowd, who seemed unresponsive to the crisis. He realized that only Zhang Xuezhou, Zhang Hao, and a few others had maintained sufficient awareness, while the others lacked a proper understanding of a half-step ascendant and were completely unaware of the terrifying strength of the opponent.

He was about to laugh at these reckless fools in his heart, but when he thought that they were led by Zhang Xuezhou, his own laughter seemed ridiculous.

Zhang Xuezhou has indeed significantly narrowed the gap, and the real competition may not be as fierce as the battles Huang Daoxian experienced in his early years.

For example, these people just watched Nagoth refine the Immortal Gem, at most making some empty threats, but without taking any action to compete for it.

If this were in the era that Huang Daoxian lived through, this would have been almost impossible.

Furthermore, Nagos was not even an insider, but rather a ruler from another country.

Without doubting the goal, without internal strife, and without the need for fierce competition, the world has not fallen into chaos and conflict. Human nations have a high degree of unity and coordination. All conditions are different from the past, so we cannot simply apply old cases to the present.

If we add the possibility of unexpected events brought about by luck, Huang Daoxian is even somewhat optimistic about the current team.

Congratulations on entering Immortality!

As Zhang Xuezhou politely offered his congratulations with a cupped-hand salute, the image on the immortal gem in Nagos's palm became clearly visible, almost equivalent to a miniature version of Nagos.

The joy of achieving immortality appeared on Nagos's face. Just as Nagos was about to burst into laughter, realizing that he had finally achieved his childhood dream and thus had enough confidence, his gaze swept over Zhang Xuezhou's calm face, and the laughter in his throat was almost instantly swallowed back.

The tunnel, which was not very wide, was filled with people from the Red Alliance. Nagos and Pasteur were not particularly noticeable among them.

Achieving immortality does not suddenly increase one's strength; it merely grants a long lifespan, the ability to entrust one's life and death, and the possibility of resurrection.

Just thinking about the terrifyingly large number of Seventh Sequence members in the Red Alliance, and then about terrorists like Zhou Rihui who violently slaughtered ferocious beasts, makes it impossible for Nagos to be arrogant about achieving immortality.

Zhang Xuezhou's expression was so calm, as if he had just accomplished an ordinary task, and he did not feel inferior because Nagos had achieved immortality.

"Congratulations to everyone! We'll all have opportunities in the future!"

Suppressing the strange sense of pride in his heart, Nagos responded with a twitching face.

As if he felt that he had forcibly suppressed his mindset, but his physical behavior was still somewhat direct, Nagos quickly invited everyone to leave this area filled with bloodshed and the risk of spatial turbulence.

"We need to lock this place up completely to prevent anyone from accidentally breaking in..."

Naggus kept talking and kept bowing as he walked out.

"So many moths!"

The sound of gunfire rang out, and Nagos's expression changed slightly. He bent over and began to move forward using both his hands and feet, speeding up his pace to escape the low cave passage.

He had just crawled out to the vicinity of the hole destroyed by the excavator when he saw a moth the size of a human head swooping down.

As Naggus punched the moth away, his gaze quickly swept outside. He saw swarms of moths, like sparrows in an autumn field, flying and leaping in the air, sometimes forming various patterns, and sometimes swooping down to attack nearby humans.
