Chapter 153: Zhong Li’s Explanation

Within the spiritual consciousness sea.

The Idea Body formed by Chen Ansheng was enveloped in a faint white light.

The Nine Orifices Cultivation Technique was running perfectly.

Alien Immortal spirit energy entered his body and circulated in a complex trajectory.

Soon, the first blood orifice was successfully opened.

Then, the second, third…

There was almost no obstruction as Chen Ansheng opened the nine orifices, then the five organs, six腑(fu – internal organs), and limbs and hundreds of bones.

Half an hour later.

Chen Ansheng’s body was surrounded in a green glow, emitting waves of Alien Immortal energy.

But Chen Ansheng did not stop cultivating and continued using the power of the Alien Immortal to practice the second cultivation technique.

This second technique was called the Dao Body Fostering Spirit Method.

Opening the nine orifices and hundred bones and six腑(fu) was merely achieving the basic qualifications for cultivation. Only by completing the Dao Body Fostering Spirit Method would one actually enter the cultivation world.

For Chen Ansheng, the Dao Body Fostering Spirit Method was even simpler. He only needed to continuously infuse Alien Immortal spirit energy into his dantian and shape the Dao embryo using mental power.

About a quarter of an hour later.

In Chen Ansheng’s dantian, a pulse of refined blood surged in, transforming under his mental power into a blood figure the size of a thumb.

This was the Dao embryo.

With this, it would be possible to transform Alien Immortal spirit energy into Alien spirit force, a means of attack.

Without any delay, he completed it smoothly.

“Huff.”

Chen Ansheng opened both eyes, emitting a mysterious surge of energy.

“Pang!”

The fine blood vessels attached to his legs shattered.

Immediately, Chen Ansheng channeled the Alien Immortal spirit energy into his skin, preventing the newly emerging blood vessels from invading him.

“Why are you staring so hard? Are you trying to take advantage of me while I cultivate?”

As Chen Ansheng looked up, he saw Zhong Li staring blankly at him.

“Go away.”

Only then did Zhong Li regain her composure.

“Never thought you, this fool, would be so adept at cultivating Alien Immortal techniques.”

Chen Ansheng proclaimed arrogantly, “Such a basic cultivation technique, anyone can do it.”

Zhong Li spat, disdainfully saying, “Show off all you want, but we need to find a way out.”

Chen Ansheng’s expression became serious.

Although this place was temporarily free of danger, they still had to find a way out. Besides, Chen Ansheng was also concerned about how Yao Jianyuan was doing.

He then asked, “Senior Sister, your sect must have made thorough arrangements for sending you here, so stop holding back. Tell me, how do we get out?”

“Are you asking me?” Zhong Li smiled, revealing her white teeth.

“I’m asking you, you ghost fool!” Chen Ansheng snapped, “We’re doing something serious. Can you stop grinning and act professionally?”

Zhong Li started at the abrupt change. When did he get the audacity to rebuke her?

Never mind, let’s not create more troubles. Rare occasion he’s serious, so let’s not stir up the mess.

Thus, Zhong Li put on a serious expression and said, “If we want to leave, we need to disrupt the formation and prevent the sleeping Immortal King from merging with the Alien Immortal.”

Chen Ansheng asked, “The key is, how do we disrupt it and stop it? Plus, once the immortal residence’s plan is disrupted by us, they would surely not let us live.”

Zhong Li said calmly, “That’s none of your concern. I have a plan.”

Chen Ansheng raised an eyebrow and said, “Tell me more about it.”

Zhong Li gazed at the blood sun in the sky and said, “See that bloody sun? It’s actually the Alien Immortal’s heart. We need only to cultivate some Alien Immortal power, attack that heart, cut off all the blood vessels connecting to it, and it will be dead. The formation will be broken.”

“So simple?”

“Simple? But not that simple.”

Zhong Li paused, then explained, “The crux lies in the speed of practice. As far as I know, within about three years, the King Immortal will merge with the Alien Immortal. If you or I can’t reach the Blood Wheel Realm within three years, we’re done.”

“What is the Blood Wheel Realm?” Chen Ansheng asked.

Zhong Li reflected for a moment and said, “Simply put, your current level is roughly equivalent to the Qi-Cultivation Stage in the Alien Immortal World, while the Blood Wheel Realm can be considered the Earth Immortal Realm.”

Chen Ansheng understood.

It’s like cultivating from Qi-Cultivation to Earth Immortal within three years.

“Doesn’t seem too hard,” Chen Ansheng assessed, “We’re not ordinary mortals. We have spiritual energy and insight. Three years is ample time.”

“You’re right,” Zhong Li nodded, “But there’s one issue. The space we’re currently in is a genuine Alien Time Crystal Space. Here, time is compressed. Three years in the outside world is only equivalent to thirty-six days here.”

In other words, one day here is equivalent to one month outside.

“???”

Chen Ansheng couldn’t help but furrow his brow.

Thirty-six days?

What the hell, that’s way too short!

“Not confident anymore?”

Seeing Chen Ansheng’s look of concern, Zhong Li smiled.

“Confidence is useless,” Chen Ansheng quipped.

“Don’t panic, let me show you something good,”

As she spoke, Zhong Li summoned a black stone tablet, with blood-red array patterns carved onto it.

“This thing, I call it the Insight Tablet. Because as long as you cultivate around it, your realm improvement speed will greatly increase. The exact increment depends on your fundamental qualifications.”

Chen Ansheng was surprised that Zhong Li didn’t take this opportunity to ridicule or strike at him. So, she has a serious side sometimes, noted down for her merits.

Then, Chen Ansheng looked at the black stone tablet, asking, “Where did you get this? Is it reliable?”

Zhong Li said indifferently, “What do you think? Do you think I’ve risked my life traversing all the forbidden zones these past years for fun? It’s all for today!”

Chen Ansheng was speechless, now he understood.

The demoness had braved death in the forbidden zones to gather techniques and treasures specifically to disrupt the Immortal King’s awakening.

After a brief silence, Chen Ansheng asked, “Sister, how deep are the grudges between your sect and that sleeping Immortal King, worth going through all these risks?”

“After he fell into slumber, my Sect Master led her disciples to kill his servants and seize his territory,” Zhong Li replied. “Is that not a big enough grudge?”

“Quite bold! You dare to seize an Immortal King’s territory!” Chen Ansheng was shocked, then asked: “By the way, as a proper Immortal King, how could his family and subordinates be so weak, completely wiped out by your Sect Master? Besides, wouldn’t he have influential friends?”

Zhong Li wrinkled her nose and said, “Do you think every Immortal King dominates the world and rules a region? According to my Sect Master, that guy achieved Immortal King status overnight by receiving some kind of inheritance in the forbidden zone, elevating from Celestial Immortal to Immortal King without much power. If the situation was not clear, she wouldn’t have acted.”

“Such.” Chen Ansheng nodded, then showed disgust and said, “Still, taking advantage during someone’s misfortune is somewhat contemptible.”

Zhong Li rolled her eyes at him, “Do you consider yourself some righteous person? Aren’t you also someone who tricks and kills for survival! Also, that nouveau riche Immortal King was not a good person either. I heard he was injured chasing another Alien Immortal who was a Celestial Immortal, trying to steal their Alien cultivation techniques. Unable to heal his injuries from multiple sources, he fell into slumber.”

Can such things happen?

A Celestial Immortal defeating an Immortal King?
