Two Realms: Don't call me evil!

Stepping out of the void portal, Su Jie escaped the pursuit of the Chaos Lord.

"Su Jie, something's not right."

Ning Yunying tugged at Su Jie's sleeve.

Su Jie also saw countless spiritual patterns emerging in the Thirty-Three Heavens, causing the entire Thirty-Three Heavens to shake violently.

Su Jie finally discovered the reason for the shaking.

But in the distance, three Chaos Lords were seen attempting to break into the Tianyuan World.

These three Chaos Lords were millions of miles long, resembling a floating continent. They had fierce faces and violent auras. Relying on their enormous and terrifying bodies, they repeatedly crashed into the thirty-three heavens of the Tianyuan World.

At this time, the Tianyuan World was affected by the Chaos Tide, and the concentration of chaotic airflow inside increased significantly. Ordinary chaotic creatures could easily enter the Tianyuan World, but the Chaos Lords could not.

The Tianyuan World is like an isolated island in a vast ocean, with the chaotic currents being the seawater.

Due to the fluctuations of the chaotic tides, the sea level rises, creating a shallow sea on the island that small fish and shrimp can enter, but large deep-sea fish will get stranded if they go in.

The Thirty-Three Heavens are the sea dike of the Tianyuan World. These Chaos Lords clearly want to destroy the Thirty-Three Heavens, allowing the surging chaotic air currents from the outside world to flow into the Tianyuan World, making the water deep enough to meet their requirements for entering the Tianyuan World.

Su Jie pondered, deducing the plans of these Chaos Lords. He had originally prepared to retreat again, but these three Chaos Lords clearly noticed Su Jie, yet they had no intention of attacking him. They were focused on attacking the Thirty-Third Heaven together, ignoring Su Jie.

Boom!Boom!Boom!
Ripples spread across the Thirty-Three Heavens, and the next moment, Su Jie suddenly felt a vast and mighty force descend upon him.

On the thirty-third heaven, a cold, ruthless, and indifferent golden vertical pupil slowly opened. This was the Eye of Heaven, the manifestation of the Heavenly Dao of the Tianyuan World.

The moment that golden vertical pupil opened, the three Chaos Lords trembled slightly and let out a roar that was both uneasy and excited, as if they were afraid of something, but more than that, they were filled with endless greed.

The golden vertical pupils stared indifferently at the three-headed Chaos Lord, and even Su Jie, who was far away, felt a jolt in his heart, as if some great terror was about to descend.

Su Jie was no stranger to the Heavenly Dao of the Tianyuan World. Because of his theft of spiritual energy to nourish Blue Star, the Heavenly Dao here had rejected Su Jie quite a bit.

However, compared to the actions of these three Chaos Lords, Su Jie was clearly insignificant. After all, Su Jie only stole some spiritual energy, while if these three Chaos Lords were to break into the Tianyuan World, they would devour the entire world.

Although the Heavenly Dao is ruthless and lacks human emotions and desires, the actions of these three Chaos Lords still provoked the Heavenly Dao's highest-level counterattack.

Rumble!
The sound of thunder echoed through the void, and the highest level of attack from the golden vertical pupils descended. Streams of chaotic lightning, like world-destroying divine whips, lashed and struck the bodies of the three chaotic lords.

This chaotic heavenly lightning is a thousand miles in diameter. Even the aftershocks can turn mountains into dust. Its power is extremely terrifying. When it strikes the chaotic lords, their solid bodies, which are millions of miles long, are instantly enveloped by the lightning. Their bodies crack open with hideous and ugly bloody mouths. Before the blood can flow out, it is evaporated by the extreme heat.

The Chaos Lord at the very front was struck by dozens of Chaos Heavenly Lightning bolts simultaneously, leaving it covered in wounds. The most severe injury was to its waist and abdomen, where a huge, gaping hole, hundreds of thousands of miles wide, appeared. Like a fountain or waterfall, pieces of its internal organs rolled into the void, accompanied by deafening screams.

However, the attack from Tianyuan Heavenly Dao did not deter them. It seemed that there was something here that attracted them greatly. Under the cover of Chaos Heavenly Thunder, they completely unleashed their ferocity and launched another frenzied attack on the Thirty-Three Heavens, shattering the void and causing the battle sounds to reverberate throughout the universe.

Click!

A crack appeared on the Thirty-Third Heaven, and a large area of ​​spiritual patterns dimmed.

The golden vertical pupils grew brighter and brighter. In a certain sea area of ​​the Tianyuan World, a huge earthquake suddenly broke out, and mountain ranges rose from the seabed.

These continuous mountain ranges look strangely shaped, vaguely forming a human face.

In the very center, surrounded by these mountains, there appeared a coffin. The coffin was vermilion, with tender green shoots growing on it, and a hazy five-colored halo emanating from it.

Upon closer inspection, one will discover that the coffin is actually a phantom projection and does not actually exist.

Upon discovering the coffin, the three Chaos Lords were immediately filled with boundless greed and began to stir restlessly.

Such a large commotion within the Tianyuan World naturally caught Su Jie's attention.

Upon discovering the coffin, Su Jie couldn't help but feel a jolt in his heart.

The material of this coffin is exactly the same as the one that Su Jie dug up on Blue Star, the one left behind by the Heavenly Martial Emperor, which contained the Immortal Finger.

Could it be that it's inside?
A guess popped into Su Jie's mind.

Just then, the coffin seemed to be pushed open by an invisible force, and a hazy five-colored halo rapidly spread out, vaguely revealing a corpse inside whose face was not clearly visible.

The next moment, countless divine runes of the Great Dao appeared, floating in the void like stars, shining brightly, with boundless and unfathomable power emanating from them.

The entire world, the entire Tianyuan World, and even the Great Dao River stretching for countless billions of miles beyond the boundary, all felt an astonishing baleful aura at this moment, causing the sky to tremble for billions of miles. Endless blood light shot straight into the sky, obscuring and spreading into the Great Dao River, its aura spreading throughout the ages.

Upon witnessing this scene, the three-headed Chaos Lord who had been attacking the Thirty-Third Heaven went berserk and roared excitedly.

Su Jie and Han Ruyan exchanged a glance. Su Jie recognized what was buried in the coffin and exclaimed in shock, "The Immortal Corpse!"

Su Jie had once obtained a section of the Immortal Finger, so he would never mistake it for the aura of an immortal.

Zizi!

Ee-e-ya!

The Thousand-Handed Centipede and the Rotifer were also extremely excited. Having fused with the Immortal Blood Gene, they were extremely sensitive to the existence of immortals. Their agitation indirectly proved that Su Jie's guess was correct.

Su Jie finally understood why these three Chaos Lords were attacking the Thirty-Three Heavens so recklessly, attempting to break into the Tianyuan World.

Rather than saying they coveted the Tianyuan World, it would be more accurate to say they coveted this immortal corpse.

As the aura of the immortal corpse leaked out, fine blood lines appeared inside the golden vertical pupil outside the Thirty-Three Heavens, just like a bloodshot eye.

But Su Jie smelled a familiar scent in those blood streaks—it was immortal blood.

The immortal corpse, which had been lying in the coffin, slowly sat up. He was wearing an ancient-style long robe, his face still unrecognizable, his skin as smooth as jade, and his ten fingers long and slender.
"Wait a minute," Su Jie suddenly realized.

It wasn't ten fingers, but nine; the immortal's left hand was missing a section of his little finger.

Su Jie suddenly realized that the immortal finger he had obtained, left behind by the Heavenly Martial Emperor, could correspond perfectly with this immortal corpse.

Just as Su Jie had this thought, the world changed once again. The immortal corpse raised its right hand, its index finger slightly bent as if flicking, and a drop of crimson immortal blood was secreted from its fingertip and flicked into the void.

Bang!
The Heavenly Dao's golden vertical pupil unleashed a round of chaotic divine lightning, but this time, the chaotic divine lightning was mixed with a trace of blood, staining the sky for billions of miles, causing spacetime to be annihilated layer by layer like a phantom.

The attack was faster than the speed of light, and it struck a Chaos Lord almost instantly.

The Chaos Lord's roar instantly turned into a wail, and its massive body, spanning millions of miles, shattered into pieces like fragile porcelain in an instant, completely annihilated.

A Chaos Lord, whose power rivaled that of a Daoist cultivator, perished.

The Heavenly Dao of the Tianyuan World was actually able to draw upon the power of this immortal corpse, and even a being like the Chaos Lord could not withstand a single blow from it.

The greed in the eyes of the other two Chaos Lords quickly turned to clarity. Fear over the death of their companions, they swung their massive bodies and flew away from the Tianyuan World at high speed.

The golden vertical pupils of the Heavenly Dao slowly dimmed and disintegrated into the void. Without external threats, the Heavenly Dao would naturally dissipate as well.

Even the immortal corpse that had appeared briefly just moments before had now returned to its coffin, its projection vanishing into thin air without a trace, as if everything that had just happened was merely an illusion.

But Su Jie knew that what he saw was absolutely real; inside the Tianyuan World, there was a celestial corpse buried.

Why did this immortal corpse perish? And why was it buried in the Tianyuan World? What is the relationship between the Heavenly Dao and this immortal corpse, and why can it draw upon the power of the immortal corpse?
One question after another arose in Su Jie's mind. The appearance of the immortal corpse made the Tianyuan World even more mysterious and unpredictable. Su Jie thought he knew this place well enough, but now he realized that there were still many secrets he did not know.

"The corpse of an immortal is unbelievable."

Ning Yunying's mouth opened slightly. Just now, it was only the fluctuations emitted by the projection of the immortal corpse. Even from an unknown distance, she couldn't help but tremble all over. Even though the immortal corpse had been dead for countless years, that aura still made everyone who sensed it tremble with fear.

"It's truly unbelievable. I never imagined that such a great treasure was hidden in the Tianyuan World."

Su Jie licked his lips, looked in the direction where the immortal corpse projection had disappeared, and his heart couldn't help but pound.

The last time he obtained a drop of immortal blood, it directly led to the birth of all life on a dead star, and Su Jie obtained a massive amount of Heavenly Dao fortune.

At that time, Su Jie was thinking that if he obtained enough immortal blood, he could directly revive planets one by one, obtain the heavenly fortune of these planets, and then refine them all into Void Realm cultivators, thus achieving a surge in his cultivation.

However, Su Jie only thought about it at the time, since the immortals were too elusive.

Unexpectedly, what Su Jie was looking for was actually buried in the Tianyuan World.

"My lord, it's very dangerous."

Han Ruyan looked at Su Jie with her bright eyes. As Su Jie's legal wife, she knew him better than anyone. Just by looking at Su Jie's expression, she knew that Su Jie was moved.

But immortal blood is not so easy to obtain. The fate of that Chaos Lord, who was reduced to ashes, is still fresh in everyone's mind. If Su Jie were to provoke an attack from the Heavenly Dao, and with the power of the immortal corpse in tow, even with the Kunlun Mirror in hand, he would probably not be able to escape unscathed.

"I understand, but knowing that the immortal corpse exists, I can't remain indifferent!"

Su Jie was well aware of the dangers involved, but as the saying goes, fortune favors the bold. If Su Jie wanted to reach the Dao Transcending Realm, using Immortal Blood was the fastest way.

This wasn't because Su Jie lacked confidence in himself; Su Jie was confident that by grinding away at it, he would one day be able to advance to the Transcendent Realm.

But how long would that take? At least thousands or tens of thousands of years.

Su Jie has been cultivating for less than a century, from the time he embarked on his cultivation journey until now, reaching the Void Realm.

Perhaps a thousand or ten thousand years is nothing to other Void Emperors. If they were confident that they could advance to the Dao Crossing Cultivator level within ten thousand years, they would probably be overjoyed.

For Su Jie, however, ten thousand years is an extremely long timescale, so long that Su Jie is unwilling to wait and would rather risk his life to obtain immortal blood.

"And didn't you notice? That immortal corpse had a section of its immortal finger severed."

Su Jie recalled the appearance of the immortal corpse he had just seen, and a slight smile appeared on his lips. He said, "The Kunlun Mirror was previously in the hands of Emperor Tianwu. Since Emperor Tianwu was able to obtain the Immortal Finger, it means that there must be a path that can get close to this immortal corpse."

Han Ruyan frowned slightly, knowing she couldn't persuade Su Jie, so she said, "I'll go with you."

The Thousand-Handed Centipede also crawled onto Su Jie's shoulder, its antennae swaying, indicating that it wanted to join Su Jie as well.

The annual rotifer, on the other hand, had a timid expression. When it saw Su Jie looking at it, it pretended not to see him and tried to shrink back into the jade box to cover itself with its jade silk quilt and go to sleep.

The domineering aura of the immortal corpse had terrified it, and even with the fusion of immortal blood genes, it still instinctively felt fear.

Su Jie nodded in satisfaction and laughed loudly, "Good, my wife, Xiao Qian, Xiao Nian, let's join hands and our strength will be unbreakable. As long as we get our hands on the Immortal Blood, we will be invincible in the world in no time."

Han Ruyan: "Okay!"

Thousand-Handed Centipede: "Sizzle!"

Rotifer: "."

Only the rotifer stared innocently with its tiny, wide eyes. Seeing that Su Jie had made the decision for it, it was so angry that it couldn't sleep.

"How about I join?"

Just as Su Jie was deciding on the next strategic direction, Ning Yunying spoke up with great interest.

"You, sister-in-law, what are you thinking? That's a celestial corpse, a celestial corpse that could destroy a Chaos Lord with a flick of its finger. Are you sure you want to come with us?"

Su Jie looked at Ning Yunying with surprise, not expecting her to have this idea.

Ning Yunying nodded and said, "I sensed the immortal blood. If I could obtain this, it would greatly enhance my 'Eternal Nirvana Technique'."

Her "Eternal Nirvana Technique" requires her to undergo tribulations to become stronger. The immortal blood contains the power of immortals. If she were to fuse with it, her physical body would certainly not be able to bear it easily. Her cells would be constantly repaired through destruction and rebirth as they absorb the power of the immortal blood. This is the growth method she needs.

"Then you're in the top ten. Remember to be careful, I don't want Xinyue to blame me later."

Su Jie did not refuse. Ning Yunying was, after all, a Void Emperor, and a powerful one among emperors. If he wanted to obtain immortal blood, he had to increase his own reserve combat power as much as possible.
