I'm in Shrouding the Heavens Practicing Eternal Life

#286 - Dark world, chaotic creatures

Divine sense entered that darkness and was swallowed, making it impossible to discover what it was.

Only, with the entry of divine sense, something was disturbed, and changes occurred. Chaotic energy surged out of the darkness, its volume so great that it could easily extinguish stars.

The chaos transformed into a passage, leading into the darkness, and it was constantly contracting, wanting to completely submerge that darkness in boundless chaos.

At this moment, the two ancient race Great Sages and Luo Mo strained their eyes and looked into the distance, operating their divine powers, and finally discovered that this darkness, which obscured half the starry sky, was actually embedded in boundless chaos. It was just because it was too huge that they hadn't noticed it at first.

Now they noticed that the nearest stars were extremely far away, and boundless chaos covered everything.

"Could this be the desolate edge of the universe!"

Silver Scale Great Sage exclaimed, "Even if we exiled ourselves without resistance, how did we end up in such a remote place!"

Dragon Horn Great Sage was also shocked, "Being in such a remote place, wanting to return is almost impossible."

They were just randomly exiled, how could they have exiled themselves to the desolate edge of the universe? They could even see the boundless chaos. If they wanted to go back, flying was impossible. Even if they flew at the speed of light, it would take hundreds of millions of years.

Their hearts instantly turned ashen. There wasn't even a one in a billion chance of survival, and Luo Mo had followed them. They wouldn't have peace even before they died!

But at this moment, something gushed out along with the chaotic energy, causing the two ancient race Great Sages to perk up and immediately use their methods to retrieve it.

It was a pool of fresh blood. Although it was full of decaying aura, some essence still remained. After the two ancient race Great Sages collected the blood, they immediately absorbed the essence to replenish their vitality. Although they had previously replenished some Pure Yang Pills, they were still extremely lacking in vitality after fleeing for their lives and exiling themselves, because they had no way to replenish it.

But, why would there be blood here?

As the chaotic energy leaked from the darkness, a creature also rushed out along with the chaotic energy, several times larger than an ordinary star. Its body was covered in cyan scales, shining with a cold metallic luster. It resembled a tiger or wolf, but had dragon horns and vermillion bird wings.

"What kind of creature is this?"

Neither of the two ancient race Great Sages had ever seen such a creature. Compared to its planet-level size, they and Luo Mo were too small.

And the blood they had just obtained should belong to this creature. Although the essence in the blood had been almost completely lost, the little bit that remained helped them replenish a lot of vitality.

What kind of terrifying creature is this?

They could feel the traces of time flowing on this creature. It had been dead for countless years, possibly even longer than the time they had been sealed.

It hadn't rotted for so long without being sealed in divine source. What exactly is this?

"A chaotic creature?"

Luo Mo said somewhat uncertainly. If it weren't for the Great Chaos Art sensing something, he wouldn't have been able to make a judgment. The realm of this creature was somewhat strange and difficult to assess.

"A chaotic creature?" Silver Scale Great Sage exclaimed, "Do such beings really exist in the world? I've only heard that innate deities are born from chaos and die in chaos, never appearing in the world. We were actually able to encounter one."

After speaking, greed arose in his eyes.

The corpse of such a creature, although it had gone through countless years, its flesh, bones, dragon horns, and divine wings were all treasures.

If they had this thing, even if they exiled themselves again, it wouldn't be impossible!

Therefore, he reached out towards this planet-sized creature, wanting to take this treasure for his own use. Dragon Horn Great Sage naturally assisted him as well.

Luo Mo was observing this creature, its body filled with chaotic energy, even emanating from its pores. For this kind of innate creature born from chaos, chaos was their divine source, which could preserve their corpses from decay.

But it still had some decay, obviously something had gone wrong, perhaps related to the huge darkness in front of them.

The two ancient race Great Sages attacked, wanting to seize this corpse and continue their escape plan.

It was impossible to defeat the ancient emperor's weapon. Only running away and trying their luck could sustain them.

However, at this time, Luo Mo had already converted the other ancestral kings and had no intention of continuing to play with them.

The Heaven Swallowing Magic Jar vibrated, scattering a piece of black light towards the two ancient race Great Sages, like a large net covering them.

"Not good!"

'Alas~'

A sigh sounded in the void. On the Heaven Swallowing Magic Jar, a terrifying aura was reviving. The aura of the supreme emperor's weapon was violent at this moment, and even the behemoth in the chaos was blasted open.

Luo Mo directly burned a hundred billion Pure Yang Pills, urging the power of the Heaven Swallowing Magic Jar to the extreme. The space turned into a tattered cloth, shaking wildly.

The two ancient race Great Sages were simply unable to exile themselves again. The space was no longer under their control. Everything was contracting towards the dark mouth of the magic jar, as if all things were about to end there.

Dragon Horn Great Sage and Silver Scale Great Sage tried their best to resist, but the dao techniques they unleashed, which could shatter stars, were nothing more than specks of dust in the overwhelming black light.

The jar lid 'clang' closed, and all the light was sucked into it. There were no longer any figures of the two ancient race Great Sages in front of Luo Mo.

Luo Mo retracted the still trembling Heaven Swallowing Magic Jar, somewhat puzzled by its current state. Why was it constantly 'buzzing' like it was in vibration mode? A powerful aura permeated, and the darkness that had just been blasted open completely shattered, revealing a huge entrance.

The Heaven Swallowing Magic Jar also has a spirit, but Luo Mo had never seen it and usually ignored it. When he wanted to use the Heaven Swallowing Magic Jar, it would exert as much power as the vitality he provided, a fair relationship between the magic weapon and the user.

But this time, the spirit of the Heaven Swallowing Magic Jar seemed to have awakened.

This was an unpredictable thing. Although it was normal for magic weapons to have spirits, the Heaven Swallowing Magic Jar was not normal. It was refined by Ruthless Great Emperor using her own lifetime body. Could its spirit be a split soul?

Fortunately, it only lasted for a short while before the Heaven Swallowing Magic Jar calmed down. The spirit inside went to sleep, with no intention of communicating with Luo Mo.

Did the power of a hundred billion Pure Yang Pills reach a limit and awaken the spirit?

But the spirit probably saw that there was nothing major happening, just suppressing two Great Sages, and went back to sleep on its own.

Luo Mo put away the Heaven Swallowing Magic Jar and took out the two ancient race Great Sages from it.

They were now tattered all over, and even their primordial spirits had suffered heavy damage, falling into a near-death state.

If Luo Mo hadn't deliberately spared their lives, they would have been crushed into dust under the power of the Heaven Swallowing Magic Jar just now.

"Repair this purple copper warship." Luo Mo gave Silver Scale Great Sage's magic weapon to the black-robed Great Sage and asked him to repair it.

As for himself, he was going to prepare to enter the darkness to investigate.

After all, this was an accident that occurred only with the accumulation of his vast power of luck during this period, and there must be good things inside.

But the only problem was that this huge dark object was embedded in boundless chaos, and only a small piece seemed to have emerged from the chaos.

And Luo Mo, who had cultivated the Great Chaos Art, knew that chaos was constantly flowing. Although there was no overall pattern, small-scale predictions could be made.

Luo Mo used the Great Chaos Art to deduce, "It appeared from the chaos two years ago. In about six years, this huge thing will be swallowed by chaos again and drift in the boundless chaos. I don't know when it will reappear in this universe, or maybe it will never return."

So this is actually a limited-time prize pool, and the window of opportunity is very short.

Chaos is boundless, and the universe is like a star to the universe in the face of chaos. This behemoth is drifting in chaos and only accidentally appeared in the Shrouding the Heavens universe. If there are no accidents, it will soon disappear again, possibly appearing in other worlds, or possibly never appearing again.

It is rare for such things to appear in chaos. Even Luo Mo has only encountered it once with the help of luck, and that time he obtained the Hongmeng Purple Qi seed.

And this time……

Luo Mo looked at the piece of darkness that had just been blasted open by the black light of the Heaven Swallowing Magic Jar, his eyes showing curiosity.

Within the blasted darkness, there was still darkness, but it was no longer impossible to explore even with divine sense. Inside was a desolate and cold space. Although the dao principles were chaotic, it was indeed a solid entity.

Through this blasted area, Luo Mo could see huge stars, but most of them were incomplete, many with only half remaining.

Silence, ruin, decay, this is a dark world. Luo Mo looked at it and saw no light at all.

Gu Li

And in the depths, there were also shadows of continents, continents that were countless times larger than stars, with stars revolving around them.

This is indeed a secret place worth exploring!

The internal space is extremely vast, and Luo Mo doesn't know what's inside, like opening a blind box.

Luo Mo threw the two Ancient Race Great Sages into the Yellow Springs River to suppress them, planning to deal with them slowly later. The current priority was to explore this secret land, as it would be swept away by chaos again in six years.

Of course, Luo Mo didn't forget to collect the corpse of that Chaos creature. This creature, covered in cyan scales and shaped like a tiger or wolf, had dragon horns and Vermilion Bird wings. Although parts of it were decayed, its power was still mighty. Based on what he had seen, Luo Mo estimated that this thing was stronger than a Great Sage, but its aura was lower than that of the quasi-emperor corpse in Kunlun.

Perhaps it was due to decay, or perhaps it was due to a lower minor realm.

In short, this should be a corpse of a Great Sage at the high level or a quasi-emperor at the initial level.

Luo Mo couldn't determine the specific situation because this corpse didn't have the five secret realms. He couldn't accurately judge its realm and could only estimate.

For the cultivators in the world of Shrouding the Heavens, this discovery alone would be astonishing, but for Luo Mo, who knew the plot, it wasn't a big deal. Judging from the way this dark world in chaos appeared, this Chaos creature was obviously not from this era, so it was normal that it didn't cultivate the human body secret realm method.

Although exploring the dark world was a top priority, dismembering the corpse of a powerful creature was also an urgent matter.

The Devouring Heaven Demonic Pot emitted several dark lights, instantly dismembering and dissecting the Chaos creature's corpse.

Skin, bones, and flesh were all separated.

Two huge eyes, a pair of Vermilion Bird wings, and a pair of dragon horns all floated in the starry sky.

Clang!

A blade of light slashed over, striking the Devouring Heaven Demonic Pot and being shattered by the pot's recoil, without harming Luo Mo in the slightest.

This was a chaotic killing intent, nurtured in the corpse for who knows how many years. Now that Luo Mo was dismembering the corpse, it flew out, but it didn't work and was shattered by the supreme emperor weapon.

"The blood essence has almost dissipated, but it can still be used to refine some pills."

Luo Mo flew among the several huge pieces of the corpse. This creature was as large as a planet. Although it wasn't as big as a super-giant star like Beidou, it was still larger than the Earth on the surface, so it was enough for him to travel between the corpses.

The taste wasn't very good, with a mixture of rotten gray mist and chaotic energy. If a cultivator below the Saint realm was contaminated with this kind of rotten gray mist, they would die immediately, and both their physical body and primordial spirit would be corroded clean.

Luo Mo summoned the Li Fire Furnace, collected all the Chaos creature's flesh and blood, rolled it with Dao fire, and then precipitated it in the Yellow Springs River to wash away impurities, turning it into pure blood pills, which were a great supplement even for Saints.

Luo Mo didn't let go of the gray mist produced by the decay either. He collected it all and refined it together with the Great Treasure Refining Art, the Great Poison Art, the Great Decay Art, and other Three Thousand Great Daos, mixing in various materials.

Finally, a huge stone gate emitting gray mist was refined and sunk into the Yellow Springs River, turning into a portal.

"Yellow Springs River, Gate of Abi, Bridge of Helplessness, all that's missing is a Reincarnation Disk and a Diagram to form the Yellow Springs Diagram."

For the signature magic weapon that the Yellow Springs Great Emperor would use, Luo Mo chose the Yellow Springs Diagram. Therefore, the Gate of Abi and the Bridge of Helplessness, which were part of the Yellow Springs Diagram set, were refined by him.

Although the functions were somewhat different from the original version, it still had that meaning.

On Luo Mo's version of the Gate of Abi, what was emitted was gray mist instead of Abi demonic energy, and what was contained was not the true meaning of pain but the Dao of Decay. If an ordinary Saint was suppressed by his Gate of Abi, in just a few breaths, both the person and their magic weapon would be corroded clean by the gray mist, leaving only the primordial spirit to be thrown into the Yellow Springs River.

"This skin and scales are also good. Even if I don't need them myself, I can reward them to my disciples."

Even if a Saint-level spirit as large as a planet had some decay, the remaining skin was still large enough to make many scroll-type magic weapons.

And the number of cyan scales on it was more than hundreds of millions. Even if it was just a small piece of scale, it would be a precious material for ordinary cultivators. With a little refining, it could become a powerful magic weapon.

Along with the scales were the fangs of this Chaos creature. Its mouth was like a Taotie, with fangs all over, both inside and out. One could imagine what the consequences would be if one was swallowed by it. The fangs had already been separated by the Devouring Heaven Demonic Pot, totaling hundreds of thousands.

Indeed, no matter how much money Luo Mo made or how many materials he found on Beidou, there was a limit.

To break the limit, he dug up the ancestral temple of the Feathered God Dynasty, dug up the Immortal Ascension Road of the North Pole, and sneaked into the Transformation Immortal Pond.

But now, going deep into the starry sky, he obtained a super-large animal skin, hundreds of millions of cyan scales, and hundreds of thousands of fangs before even entering this secret land. With his Eternal Life Method's Great Treasure Refining Art's speed of refining weapons, it wouldn't be long before he saw magic weapons appearing all over the mountains and plains.

Not to mention the abundance of these scales and fangs, it was enough to refine a King's Divine Weapon.

Even if the material wasn't as good as immortal gold and divine jade, and a lot of the essence had been lost, it couldn't be used as a material for a world-renowned Saint Weapon, but there was no problem in wholesaling it as a King's Divine Weapon, and the quantity was quite terrifying.

Would everyone in the Sun-Moon Divine Dynasty have a King's Divine Weapon?

Just thinking about it made Luo Mo feel that the scene was beautiful.

Luo Mo had already arranged the scales and fangs. As for this animal skin, Luo Mo didn't plan to use it as the 'Diagram' of the Yellow Springs.

He had the skin of the Undying Heavenly Emperor, and he planned to use the skin of the Undying Heavenly Emperor to make the 'Diagram' of the Yellow Springs Diagram, but he couldn't handle that high-level material very well yet. He would break it up for a while, improve his realm, and then talk about it.

Afterward, he collected all the bones of this creature. These bones were good treasures, and he planned to use them to refine a warship that could cross the starry sky, just like the Silver Scaled Great Sage's purple copper warship.

Or, at that time, he could directly fuse the purple copper warship with the bones of the Chaos creature and refine it again, which should greatly increase its power. He also had to convert the Silver Scaled Great Sage and teach him various ancient emperor scriptures and secret techniques, as well as the Three Thousand Great Daos Great Treasure Refining Art.

He would talk about it later.

After collecting the bones, all that was left were the Vermilion Bird wings, the dragon horns, and a pair of eyeballs.

Each of these three things could be refined into a powerful magic weapon individually. They were exceptionally powerful parts of this Chaos creature.

And when Luo Mo collected these three things, he also made an unexpected discovery.

Within the dragon horns, there was purple dragon marrow. That purple color was deep and dreamlike, even more gorgeous than the dragon marrow of the Central Province's ancestral vein. Every drop was a treasure, a precious medicine that could extend life.

The precious blood of high-realm cultivators was a precious medicine, let alone the dragon marrow inside the dragon horns of such a strange beast!

There were only a dozen drops of dragon marrow in one dragon horn, and only thirty drops in two. It could be used to refine several furnaces of life-extending pills.

The two horns were also exceptionally sharp. Luo Mo waved them casually. Even though countless years had passed, these two horns still possessed divine power, and space cracks hundreds of thousands of miles long instantly appeared in the starry sky.

Such power was stronger than ordinary Great Sage weapons.

And within a pair of Vermilion Bird wings, there was even divine wing essence blood. This was the blood of a congenital fire spirit born in chaos. For cultivators, it was a treasure. After taking and refining it, they could possess a trace of the congenital fire spirit's bloodline, greatly increasing the power of fire Dao techniques.

In addition to the divine blood that could be taken, this pair of wings could also be refined into divine wings. Holding them, one could soar through the starry sky and possess extreme speed. With a fan, there would be a storm of divine flames sweeping through.

Every feather of this pair of Vermilion Bird wings was a treasure, let alone a pair of complete wings.

Dragon marrow, divine blood, and a pair of eyeballs. It was just that the eyeballs had decayed and were severely damaged, and the essence inside had been lost. They could only be refined and repaired in shape, and then used as decorations.

"It's time to go in."

After collecting the materials, Luo Mo thought about the dark world and went there.

The dark world had an unobservable layer on the outside, and even divine thoughts could not detect it. Only the area cracked by the Devouring Heaven Demonic Pot could see inside, and Luo Mo also planned to enter from here.

Although he didn't know what that layer of darkness was, Luo Mo didn't plan to touch it rashly.

He wore the Demonic Pot on his head, prepared for protection, and then turned into a stream of light and entered the dark world from the cracked area.

At the moment of shuttling, Luo Mo's expression was dazed, and then he felt a burst of mental fatigue and drowsiness. He instantly woke up!

You must know that as a cultivator in the Eternal Life Secret Realm and the Saint Realm, how could he be tired, how could he want to sleep?

What happened? Was something dealing with him through the Devouring Heaven Demonic Pot?

Luo Mo investigated for a while, almost using the True Spirit Seal, and then surprisingly found:

He lost six hundred and seventy years of life.

Although it was just a negligible number, it was suddenly lost, not consumed by himself.

At this time, when he looked back, he vaguely felt a layer of fuzzy fluctuations remaining in the position that was blasted open by the Devouring Heaven Demonic Pot.

"The power of time? Could it be that the undetectable blackness is the rapidly passing time?"

He had not yet cultivated to the fourth level of the Eternal Life Secret Realm, the Chronos Realm, and could not control the flow of time.

Therefore, if it was the power of time, it made sense, no wonder his divine thoughts could not detect it before.
