Infinite terror invades all heavens

Ten layers, twenty layers, fifty layers... Finally, a giant root ball with a diameter of over a kilometer quietly floated underground.

Even though Wang Yi had given prior notice, the members of the Celestial Team and Wu Xian were still somewhat nervous about his actions.

Lina had even gripped her staff, ready to unleash defensive magic at any moment;

The flying sword behind Luo Yinglong also emitted a low, resonant sound.

"Don't be nervous." Wang Yi waved his hand at everyone and explained, "This is just to isolate the spread of the fluctuations. Don't worry, it's just some basic information isolation measures."

Before he finished speaking, Wang Yi raised his hand and gently pressed down in the air.

An invisible ripple spread outward from the center of his palm.

The ripples touched the ground, the dome, and every vine and aerial root around it.

The entire plant maze emitted an extremely deep resonance.

This temple, constructed of living plants, is reducing the generation of fluctuations by hedging against the same frequency.

The power of the blessed land was summoned at this moment.

As one of the foundations for the creation of this blessed land, the power of the cultivators in the world of Lord Pro was further revived after Wang Yi absorbed a large number of spiritual fragments of Gaia's consciousness from the acquired world.

The mansion domain, which once projected the power of the mansion outwards, has now transformed into a domain supernatural power.

Centered on Wang Yi, a certain range of external space was forcibly covered and transformed by him, and regarded as part of the blessed land.

For Wang Yi, this supernatural ability represents a qualitative leap in all aspects.

Whether in terms of concealment, convenience, or energy output, it is incomparable to the past.

In a flash, the dark underground cave disappeared, replaced by a garden with pavilions, bridges, streams, and an antique charm!

The mansion's style blends the flying eaves and brackets of ancient Eastern architecture with the cloisters and pointed roofs of Western Victorian style. In the center of the courtyard, a huge phantom of a world tree blocks out the sky, and each leaf on the canopy seems to carry the birth and death of a miniature world.

“Interesting.” Wu Xian raised an eyebrow. He had seen Wang Yi’s blessed land in the world of the afterlife, but he was surprised by how quickly Wang Yi’s blessed land had progressed during a mission.

But the rest of the Celestials reacted much more strongly.

Adam's pupils suddenly contracted.

He was astonished to discover that Wang Yi, who seemed unremarkable within the Central Continent Team and whose official information listed him as a healer with enhanced abilities, was actually pursuing the path of an Earth Immortal.

Judging from the energy level contained within this blessed land, although this world is not yet complete, its strictness and level of rules are already comparable to some intermediate planes.

In addition, there's the Pumo Tree outside, whose bloodline is ridiculously strong.

Another guy who pretends to be weak to actually do something big.

Luo Yinglong's eyes widened, and the yin-yang symbol deep within his pupils froze at that moment.

The Shushan Taoist tradition he inherited traces back to the world of Journey to the West.

He had seen many Earth Immortals in his family's lineage, and he even possessed more than one Earth Immortal technique himself. Some were orthodox methods passed down from the Three Pure Ones, while others were unorthodox and unorthodox methods. He believed he had a fairly clear understanding of the term "Earth Immortal."

But this is the domain that Wang Yi has unfolded before us.

wrong.

That's completely wrong.

Wang Yi is clearly alive.

Like a ferocious beast eroding the surrounding laws, it faintly exudes a domineering and aggressive aura of "I am the world, and the world is me".

Luo Yinglong's Adam's apple bobbed up and down, and he almost couldn't help but curse out loud.

Isn't this the very path that Master casually mentioned when he was drunk years ago?!

In his quest for a higher realm, Zhenyuan Daxian attempted to deduce and delve deeper into the Dao of Earthly Immortals, pioneering a transformative path of "merging the body with the realm and nourishing the body with the realm."

That road is known as the authentic heritage!

Before everyone could recover from their shock, the power of the blessed land had already quietly spread to its maximum.

A graceful figure appeared out of thin air beside Wang Yi.

She was a woman dressed in a high-slit cheongsam, with beautiful features, holding a scroll of constantly changing Qimen Dunjia formation diagrams in her hands.

As soon as Wu Ruixiang appeared, she lightly raised her hand and tossed the array diagram into the air.

"Qimen Dunjia, activate!"

The array suddenly unfolded in mid-air, transforming into a sky full of starlight.

The four illusory discs of Heaven, Earth, Man, and God manifested within the domain and slowly rotated.

In the blink of an eye, the relationships of mutual generation and restraint among the five elements within the entire domain were forcibly rewritten.

The five elements (metal, wood, water, fire, earth) are no longer fixed in their generating and restraining relationships, but have become variables that can be arranged arbitrarily.

The flow of time also began to distort; a second at the edge of the domain might be equivalent to a minute at the core.

Meanwhile, deep within the blessed land, the phantom of a huge altar appeared, inscribed with countless distorted characters and symbols.

Thus Spoke Zarathustra, the Grand Mystery, which, with the power of the blessed land, extends its own power into the realm and forcibly defines the rules within it.

Countless rules governing concealment, locking, isolation, and demonic extermination extended from the altar like tangible chains, intertwining above everyone's heads and ultimately forming an absolutely isolated domain.

From the unfolding of the blessed land to the arrangement of Qimen Dunjia, and then to the activation of the Great Secret Ritual, all of this may seem like a long process, but in reality it only takes a few breaths.

Most importantly, all the subtle energy fluctuations that appear are absorbed and digested by the layers of roots of the Pumo Tree in the simplest way, and finally completely eliminated.

Wang Yi let out a long breath.

The isolation of the plant maze, the coverage of the blessed land, and the rule-sealing of the Great Mystery of Thus Zarathustra create a triple barrier.

Each layer requires precise micro-operations down to the millimeter, and the combined mental effort required is far greater than it appears on the surface.

Especially the final secret ritual.

As the core architecture of the first project of the Republic, Thus Spoke Zarathustra itself possesses an extremely sensitive characteristic of rule interference.

If its energy fluctuations resonate in any way that is incompatible with the original laws of this area, it could very likely trigger the hidden warning nodes that the Tower of Babel has set up throughout the wizarding world.

To avoid this risk, Wang Yi used the Black Crow Tower wizards who had been completely assimilated by the Divine Transformation Technique as laborers.

Using the magic of native wizards as the underlying framework, a completely new ritual is built layer by layer from scratch.

The price was the exhaustion felt by everyone in Black Raven Tower, as if they had been completely drained from the inside out.

And a rumor about a succubus inside the Black Raven Tower who is bisexual.

"All done." Wang Yi flicked his wrist and looked at Chu Xuan. "The permissions are activated too. The rest is up to you."

Chu Xuan nodded and scanned the crowd expressionlessly.

"Too many forces from different sources together will cause interference. Wang Yi's arrangement is enough to shield most of the Tower of Babel's detection. Combined with the causal illusion I set up in advance, it can basically prevent the Tower of Babel from detecting us."

After he finished speaking, he glanced at Zhu Peng, who remained calm and shook his head.

Adam saw all of this.

He knew in a flash that if he didn't regain control of the conversation, the Central Continent Team would completely seize the initiative.

“Since we’ve come this far, I’ll take the lead.” Adam took the initiative, stepping forward half a step, his voice carrying a strange seductive quality.

"Based on the information gathered so far, whether it's the way spiritual beings are harvested, the logic behind the control of extraordinary powers, or the problems with this world's meditation system, the mastermind behind it all points to the Tower of Babel."

Adam paused, his gaze turning deep: "In addition, the timeline anchor that suddenly appeared in front of the undercover team can be basically confirmed to be a group of high-level beings who were refined into artifact spirits by the Tower of Babel, who launched a self-rescue in despair, hoping that an external variable could break this cage."

Adam spoke while observing Chu Xuan and Wu Xian's reactions.

Chu Xuan remained expressionless.

Wu Xian, on the other hand, wore an exaggerated "You're so amazing!" expression and clapped his hands casually.

Adam sneered inwardly and continued:

"Furthermore, based on the logic of the main god's mission, the most urgent task now is to gather all forces to accelerate the mission's progress. We need to achieve a snowballing accumulation to coordinate with the main god and the Tower of Babel on the front lines in the current timeline. Only when the mission progress is high enough can we..."

"Stop, stop, stop."

Wu Xian suddenly spoke up, interrupting Adam's long speech.

The coin in his hand bounced up again, spinning in the air and reflecting a cold light.

Wu Xian had a smile on his lips, but there was no warmth in his eyes.

“Captain Asia,” Wu Xian’s tone sounded like a joke, but his questions were actually veiled threats, “Can you still contact the Main God? Or did you never intend to share intelligence with us in the first place?”

He took a step forward, and the coin fell back into his palm with a clink.

"Your Celestial Team only just now revealed the information that the Supreme God has already launched a full-scale war against the Tower of Babel?"

The air froze instantly.

Luo Yinglong sensed the tension was building and quickly tried to smooth things over: "Misunderstanding, misunderstanding! I just thought everyone knew, after all..."

“So,” Wu Xian didn’t give Luo Yinglong a chance to smooth things over and continued to add insult to injury, “Captain Asia, what other selectively forgotten intelligence have you not shared? As far as I know, in business, the act of obtaining asymmetric benefits in cooperation by concealing some key information is called unjust enrichment, which violates the basic principles of fair trade and will have consequences.”

Wu Xian gestured towards Chu Xuan with his lip, his smile growing even brighter:

"Master Chu loves this kind of thing the most. He has a whole bunch of countermeasures against information asymmetry, from debt collection at the causal level to compensation for decision-making errors caused by information asymmetry. Adam, aren't you afraid that the good stuff your teammate just gave up will still end up being insolvent?"

Adam's expression remained unchanged, but his heart was in turmoil.

Wu Xian may seem to be stirring up trouble for him, inciting conflict between the Central Continent Team and the Heavenly God Team, but in reality, he is using this method to remind him of his irrational behavior.

Adam felt a surge of anger, but even more so, a chilling coldness.

In the blink of an eye, he realized that he had been tricked again.

Ever since I witnessed Chu Xuan manipulating that sixth-circle prophecy wizard with my own eyes.

Adam was extremely cautious, fearing that he might unknowingly fall into the other party's trap.

But now that I think about it, I realized that I had already fallen into their trap the moment I arrived in this mission world and first came into contact with the Central Continent Team.

Otherwise, there would be no need to hide this information, especially after witnessing Chu Xuan's methods of settling karmic debts.

If it weren't for Wu Xian's "reminder," Adam would probably have continued to cling to that little bit of information until Chu Xuan used the method of cause and effect at a crucial moment to squeeze him dry with interest.

"...The Celestial Team didn't actually obtain much intelligence." Adam paused for a moment, then spoke again, his tone devoid of any emotion. "But there is one crucial piece of information that I did hold back before."

He raised his head, looked directly at Chu Xuan and Wu Xian, and said, word by word, "The real turning point when the main god and the Tower of Babel went to war was the moment when the undercover team obtained the time anchor."

After saying that, Adam shut up and gestured to the rest of the Celestials to stop talking as well.

Seeing that no one else intended to speak, Chu Xuan stepped forward, stretched out his hand, and made a light slash in the air.

A holographic projection instantly appeared in front of everyone.

The projection showed countless interwoven data streams, worldline models, and intelligence maps labeled "unlocked," "pending verification," and "highly dangerous."

Chu Xuan tapped his finger lightly on the projection, and a large amount of information scrolled at super-fast speed, eventually settling on a few key points.

"All disseminable intelligence has been compiled and updated on the public channel." Chu Xuan pushed up his glasses, the reflection of the lenses obscuring his eyes. "But that intelligence can be transmitted through conventional encryption methods. What I'm about to talk about is a message that can only be transmitted face-to-face in an absolutely isolated environment."

He turned off the holographic projection and his gaze swept across the faces of everyone present.

"Adam has already given us the basic information," Chu Xuan's voice rang out again, "but there are a few points that need to be added."

He adjusted his glasses, his gaze sweeping over the crowd and landing on Wang Yi.

"First, as the mission progresses, some previously blocked information restrictions are weakening or even becoming ineffective. Second, the most crucial piece of information right now is that Wang Yi has obtained the transmigrator's surname."

Chu Xuan paused here, as if to make sure that what he was about to say would not trigger any causal backlash.

After a moment, he slowly uttered a single word:

"magnificent."

Wu Xian's eyes narrowed sharply.

His brain worked at an unprecedented speed, instantly connecting with the various pieces of information about meditation that he had indirectly observed while working with Chu Xuan.

That bizarre system that distorts innate sorcery into supernatural powers, and that almost greedy way of harvesting spirituality…

"Immortality?" Wu Xian's voice was heavy. "Hua Tiandu?"

These two terms, like two meteorites thrown into a still lake, stirred up a storm in everyone's hearts.

Hua Tiandu!

The ultimate villain in the world of immortality, and the reincarnation of the malignant tumor of the Gate of Immortality, the source of everything in the world of immortality.

“That’s right, the meditation methods of this world and the operating logic of the supernatural realms in the Immortal Life Method overlap significantly on multiple levels,” Chu Xuan’s cold voice rang out.
