Chapter 439: Great Destruction
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The place where the Celestial Race hid their treasures was like a huge maze, layer after layer, hidden in hidden corners.
Each level was a Small World.
Each level had an Immortal Emperor secretly guarding it.
But how powerful was the current Lin Jiufeng?
The improvement in his strength was simply like riding a rocket.
From the first step to the fifth step of the Immortal Emperor Realm, the improvement in Lin Jiufeng’s strength wasn’t just a few times, but tens, one hundred, or even hundreds of times.
Now that they were plundering the treasures on the first level, Lin Jiufeng protected the rest. Black Skeleton, Black Tortoise, Spatial Slas.h.i.+ng Sword, and Primal Chaos War Spear quickly acted.
“There are so many treasures. This is only the first level of the Celestial Race’s treasure trove. It’s a Small World, but there are already so many powerful magic treasures. There are so many Immortal King-level treasures, Immortal Emperor-level magic treasures, and even some Immortal King pills and Immortal Emperor pills.” Black Skeleton discovered in surprise.
“Once we absorb and digest these treasures, we can definitely improve our strength by a level. Moreover, the other treasures can be distributed to the powerhouses of the mortal realm. It’s simply a waste of G.o.d’s given gifts to hide them all,” White Skeleton said excitedly.
Compared to the joy of Black Skeleton and White Skeleton, Black Tortoise and the other two didn’t waste time speaking. They plundered all these magic treasures quickly. As peak Immortal Emperors, they weren’t that excited. Moreover, their spiritual consciousness penetrated the layers of palaces, temples, and shrinking s.p.a.ce. Any minute magic treasures were discerned and couldn’t escape their plunder.
In this short period of time, thousands of pills, magic treasures, and materials were stored by Black Skeleton, White Skeleton, and the three divine weapons in an instant.
As Immortal Kings and Immortal Emperors, their control of the Great Dao wasn’t something that ordinary people could understand. With a stretch of their hands, they could create a miniature world out of thin air, evolving the five elements inside. Then, a weak world was born. It was similar to a storage s.p.a.ce that could accommodate countless treasures.
They used an extremely short period of time to clean up this Small World. With a grab of his hand, Lin Jiufeng used his powerful strength to bring them to the second level of the Celestial Race’s treasury.
“Who dares to barge into the Celestial Race’s treasury?”
The Immortal Emperor guarding the second level shouted in surprise.
Lin Jiufeng faced him and only flicked his finger.
Boom!
This Immortal Emperor exploded out of thin air. The gap in strength between him and Lin Jiufeng was too huge. Even though they were of the same realm and were both at the fifth step of the Immortal Emperor Realm, the incomparably powerful strength in Lin Jiufeng’s body was enough to crush him.
Because of the integration of the Sand of Time, there was a subtle change in the crystal divine kingdoms in Lin Jiufeng’s body.
After integrating with the Sand of Time, each divine kingdom expanded by at least ten times.
In fact, every crystal divine kingdom gave birth to nomological powers similar to the 3,000 Great Dao of the mortal realm.
Gradually, each crystal divine kingdom would become equivalent to a mortal realm.
To develop to this extent, it could be seen how powerful and terrifying the power of the crystal divine kingdoms in Lin Jiufeng’s body was.
Although it was just a flick of his finger, this strike erupted with the energy that could be instantly gathered by all the crystal divine kingdoms in Lin Jiufeng’s entire arm, striking out with this heavenly strike.
This Immortal Emperor of the Celestial Race instantly exploded.
This was his fate, no one could change it.
The structure of the second level’s Small World was similar to the first level. There were temples, pavilions, and even more magic treasures. Many extinct magic treasures appeared here, and incomparably huge Ancestral Dragon-grade spirit veins even appeared.
Lin Jiufeng looked at the spirit veins that were as big as the ancestor of the Dragon Race, the Ancestral Dragon. He couldn’t help but exclaim in surprise.
“Where did these huge spirit veins come from?”
It was obvious that in the Spell Realm, there weren’t many such huge Ancestral Dragon-grade spirit veins.
Hence, there was only one explanation.
These huge spirit veins were acc.u.mulated by the Celestial Race every era.
In other words, the spirit veins here came from the mortal realm.
“Plunder them all!” Lin Jiufeng shouted coldly.
He didn’t partic.i.p.ate in the plunder. Instead, he guarded the surroundings, protecting Black Skeleton, Black Tortoise, and the others.
The second Small World was also wiped out.
The two skeletons and the three divine weapons were like locusts pa.s.sing through the borders, not leaving a single drop behind.
As he waited, the second Small World became empty. Then, the third, fourth, fifth, sixth world followed…
In the blink of an eye, Lin Jiufeng led them to sweep through the 19th level of the Celestial Race’s treasury.
During this period, countless magic treasures, pills, and spirit veins were unearthed.
There were so many of them that in the end, Lin Jiufeng himself became numb.
Every time he arrived at a world, Lin Jiufeng would quickly kill the Immortal Emperor guarding this Small World.
Then, the speed at which the two skeletons and the Black Tortoise swept through was incomparable, so fast that it would make the Seven Races of the Ancient Age vomit blood.
The entire 19 levels of the treasury and 19 Small Worlds were cleaned up in less than ten minutes.
Lin Jiufeng and the others obtained endless magic treasures, pills, and more than 30,000 huge Ancestral Dragon-grade spirit veins.
If the energy and immortal energy emitted by these 30,000 plus huge Ancestral Dragon Spirit Veins returned to the mortal realm, the mortal realm would surpa.s.s the Spell Realm and become the world with the greatest amount of spiritual energy in one go.
Hence, after Lin Jiufeng cleaned up the treasury of the Celestial Race, he didn’t want to stay for even a moment. He only wanted to return to the mortal realm immediately and then begin to improve the intensity of the spiritual energy in the mortal realm.
As for the two skeletons, the Black Tortoise, and the others, they were still excited and full of firepower at the beginning. But as they constantly discovered various treasures appearing in front of them, they actually felt tired as they searched.
From just one treasure trove, one could see the huge gap between the Seven Races of the Ancient Age and the mortal realm.
“This treasury of the Celestial Race has already been wiped out by us. If we bring these treasures back to the mortal realm, we will be able to shorten the gap between the mortal realm and the Seven Races of the Ancient Age and provide some leverage for victory in the upcoming war,” Lin Jiufeng said. His expression was firm. As the most powerful person on the surface of the mortal realm now, he was already the pillar of this era.
Hence, after obtaining so many treasures, he didn’t stay any longer. He directly used great magic power to activate the Undying Substance.
The door of the Death Realm slowly appeared.
Lin Jiufeng once again opened the door of the Death Realm by relying on the Undying Substance that he obtained from signing in the last time he entered the Death Realm.
Rumble!
The energy reaction caused by the opening of the Death Realm’s door in the Spell Realm was completely different from opening it in the mortal realm.
At this moment, the treasury of the Celestial Race was trembling, triggering the tremors of the four directions. They spread out, directly awakening the sleeping antiques in the depths of the Celestial Race.
“I smell death!” In the unknown depths of the Celestial Race, an ancient existence that was powerful enough to make time and s.p.a.ce stop suddenly opened its eyes. They let out a thunderous sound, and their gaze was like a torch. They instantly penetrated through s.p.a.ce and time to look at the area where the Celestial Race’s treasury was. Then, they discovered Lin Jiufeng and the Death Realm’s door.
They saw Lin Jiufeng.
They saw the empty treasury of the Celestial Race.
They saw the Death Realm’s door.
Upon seeing the first two, this ancient existence didn’t have much of a reaction.
Although Lin Jiufeng was very powerful, his realm was only at the fifth heaven of the Immortal Emperor Realm.
The treasures of the Heaven Lord were wiped out, but it only made killing intent rise in the heart of this ancient existence.
What truly moved this ancient existence was the Death Realm’s door.
Boom!
After discovering the Death Realm’s door, the ancient existence suddenly got up and watched in disbelief. At this moment, vast divine might flowed around their body, and they let out a voice that shook one’s soul. “Impossible, absolutely impossible. Death can’t become a single world. No one can open up a world of death. If there really is a Death Realm, it should belong to the Seven Races of the Ancient Age!”
This ancient existence of the Celestial Race’s voice spread in all directions at this moment, shaking the sky.
They directly attracted the attention of the entire Seven Races of the Ancient Age.
Then, everyone simultaneously looked at the Celestial Race’s treasury and discovered Lin Jiufeng and the others.
During this period, the top powerhouses of the Earth Race also discovered the deaths of Huangfu Bi’An and a large group of Immortal Emperors. All of them shouted in shock, “These powerhouses raised in the mortal realm actually dare to barge into the Seven Races of the Ancient Age and even kill so many of us Immortal Emperors. They simply deserve to die!”
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
At this moment, the powerhouses of the Seven Races of the Ancient Age and countless ancient existences slowly woke up. Powerful killing intent filled the Spell Realm, each wisp seeming to be able to kill an Immortal Emperor.
The true power of the Seven Races of the Ancient Age began to appear.
It wasn’t because of Lin Jiufeng, nor was it because of the Celestial Race’s treasury, but because of the Death Realm’s door.
“We’re finished. We’ve been discovered by the people of the Seven Races of the Ancient Age.” Black Skeleton shouted in surprise.
“Immortal Emperor Lin, what should we do now?” White Skeleton immediately looked at Lin Jiufeng. The terrifying pressure brought by the awakening of the ancient existences of the Seven Races of the Ancient Age directly made them feel what fear and despair were.
Hence, at this moment, Black Skeleton, Black Tortoise, and the others looked at Lin Jiufeng, viewing him as their leader.
“Leave now. I’ve already opened the door to the Death Realm. Hurry up and go in. I’ll cover for you guys.” Lin Jiufeng stared at the ancient existence that had awakened in the distance and said decisively without looking back.
The ancient existence of the Celestial Race was the first to awaken. During their awakening, hundreds of flowers bloomed. The vast power of life was activated. Then, they took a step forward. Endless s.p.a.ce condensed beneath their feet, and they arrived at the Celestial Race’s treasury.
“An Immortal Emperor from the Mortal Realm Ranch can actually open the door to the Death Realm. I want to capture you now and see what the reason is.” The ancient existence of the Celestial Race’s voice was loud, and their eyes landed coldly on Lin Jiufeng.
Lin Jiufeng blocked in front of the Death Realm’s door and let Black Skeleton, Black Tortoise, and the others leave first. He faced the ancient existence of the Celestial Race.
“Who are you?” Lin Jiufeng asked with an incomparably cold gaze.
Sensing the powerful pressure from this ancient existence, every crystal divine kingdom in Lin Jiufeng’s body was boiling, providing him with energy.
“The people of the new era have long forgotten the story of the old era. I have killed countless of your ancestors. My name is Great Destruction. Remember this name. This is the nightmare of your mortal realm.” The ancient existence of the Celestial Race, Great Destruction, said with a vast voice.
Accompanied by his voice, with a loud bang, under this sky, the stars shook. A Great Destruction Spear directly spanned the world for tens of thousands of miles. It pierced through the s.p.a.ce on the spot and descended in front of Lin Jiufeng.
This Great Destruction Spear was their weapon to roam the world.
“Tell me, what exactly is the Death Realm like?” The Great Destruction held the Great Destruction Spear and interrogated Lin Jiufeng.
“I’ll tell you after you die.” Although Lin Jiufeng knew that there was a realm of difference between him and this ancient existence of the Celestial Race, he still wanted to try the feeling of battling such an existence.
The Death Realm Gate was protected behind him. The Black Tortoise, the others, and the two skeletons had long entered, but Lin Jiufeng wasn’t in a hurry to enter. Instead, he activated all of his crystal divine kingdom and his Great Dao of the Epoch, wanting to test the strength of this ancient existence of the Celestial Race.
“The races of the mortal realm are really filled with wisdom. Powerhouses of their own will be born in every era, and they will create new cultivation techniques. But it’s a pity that none of you can grow up. At a certain level, we will harvest your lives. It was like this in the past, and it’s no exception now. Many more powerful and outstanding geniuses than you have died in my hands. You actually want to use the fifth step of the Immortal Emperor Realm to fight with me? You can only court death.” Great Destruction wielded the Great Destruction War Spear and directly pierced through the world with a ferocious strike. Endless killing intent shook the entire treasury of the Celestial Race, as well as this world, and it pierced towards Lin Jiufeng’s body.
Boom!
The resplendent light that burst out from this strike covered the world. Under the dark star, the endless stars transformed into dust. Only the light of the Great Destruction War Spear shone in the night.
It was obvious that Great Destruction was no longer at the Immortal Emperor Realm. Like De Lin II’s father, King De Lin, they had also surpa.s.sed the Immortal Emperor Realm.
Lin Jiufeng’s strength had completely crushed those at the Immortal Emperor Realm. Once his crystal divine kingdoms were used, even if tens of Immortal Emperors or even dozens of Immortal Emperors joined forces, they still wouldn’t be able to defeat him. But when facing a King Realm powerhouse who had truly surpa.s.sed the Immortal Emperor Realm, he himself didn’t have the confidence.
However, Lin Jiufeng still wanted to give it a try.
The Great Destruction War Spear swept over. Lin Jiufeng immediately burned his crystal divine kingdoms and activated his Great Dao of the Epoch.
“Epoch, Seal the Heavens, Land, and the People!”
At this moment, Lin Jiufeng gathered his own Great Dao of the Epoch into his palm. He gathered it into a blade and slashed in the air, sealing the world.
He awaited the result.
The Great Destruction War Spear pierced over, but this area of the world had already been sealed by Lin Jiufeng, so it directly collided with the sealed world. The Great Destruction War Spear’s speed slowed down, but the sealed world couldn’t withstand this terrifying pressure. It split inch by inch, like a shattered mirror, filled with cracks.
Boom!
The terrifying might of the Great Destruction War Spear still shattered Lin Jiufeng’s sealing world and directly pierced into his body.
Lin Jiufeng’s abdomen was directly penetrated.
A King Realm was a King Realm after all.
The Great Destruction War Spear that was thrown out injured Lin Jiufeng.
But Lin Jiufeng was no longer made of flesh and blood. Even though his abdomen had been pierced, no blood flowed out. Instead, the crystal divine kingdoms were constantly squeezing the Great Destruction War Spear.
“Heaven’s Heart as One!”
Lin Jiufeng struggled with all his might. He circulated the crystal divine kingdoms and spat out a powerful wave of energy. At this moment, waves of black and yellow energy burst out of Lin Jiufeng’s body. He reached out and grabbed the Great Destruction War Spear.
With a tremble of his arm, the large tendons seemed to have become dragons as they mixed together, emitting a powerful energy. He grabbed the Great Destruction War Spear and pulled it out of his body.
When the powerhouse of the Celestial Race saw this scene, they said in surprise, “You aren’t made of flesh and blood. You’ve already treated yourself as a magic treasure for tempering. This is really incredible. In this new era, there’s actually someone who has walked an unprecedented path. I can’t bear to kill you anymore. I’m going to imprison you and properly study whether this path that you created is suitable or not.”
The cultivators of the Seven Races of the Ancient Age were very powerful, but their creativity was very low.
Hence, they treated the mortal realm as a farm.
They would plant the seeds of different races and let them develop barbarically on their own. Then, these races would establish different cultivation paths. The Seven Races of the Ancient Age would sit back and enjoy the fruits of their labor. When their civilization developed to a certain realm, they would harvest the fruits.
Originally, the Seven Races of the Ancient Age didn’t have any expectations for the current mortal realm.
Because the original Immortal Court and the G.o.d Race had created different cultivation techniques.
This was already a very amazing thing.
But because the ideals of the Immortal Court and the G.o.d Race were incompatible, they fought endlessly and disrupted the arrangements of the Seven Races of the Ancient Age.
Resulting in the current mortal realm.
But the interference of the Seven Races of the Ancient Age on the mortal realm was very weak.
Because they were sealed in the Spell Realm by the King of Recovery.
As for the mortal realm, its energy had also been sucked dry, so in the eyes of the Seven Races of the Ancient Age, this era was like trash that had to be wiped out.
But what the powerhouses of the Great Destruction didn’t expect was that Lin Jiufeng actually walked an unprecedented path in the mortal realm under such a weak situation.
He treated the body of flesh and blood as a magic treasure and began to refine it. Then, every inch of flesh and blood transformed into crystal divine kingdoms. Each crystal divine kingdom was equivalent to a Small World. As he continued to cultivate, each kingdom would advance to become a Medium World and then to a Major World.
This allowed Great Destruction to see a glimmer of hope.
“If you want to catch me, then find the Death Realm first!” Lin Jiufeng sneered. He used all his strength to draw out the Great Destruction War Spear. Then, he suddenly threw it to Great Destruction. Then, he didn’t stay any longer. He turned around and entered the Death Realm’s door.
Knowing that he was temporarily no match for a King Realm powerhouse, Lin Jiufeng didn’t stay any longer. He quickly escaped from the Spell Realm.
Although he could sweep through those of the Immortal Emperor Realm, there was still a gap between him and the King Realm.
Hence, as long as there was life, there was hope. Lin Jiufeng didn’t want to wait for more King Realm powerhouses to recover. He escaped from the Spell Realm under the angry eyes of Great Destruction.
From the Death Realm to the Spell Realm and then back to the Death Realm from the Spell Realm, in just half a day, Lin Jiufeng’s gains were enough to exceed the hundred or thousand years of bitter cultivation that he had spent.
Great Destruction stared fixedly at Lin Jiufeng and the place where the Death Realm’s door disappeared. Their expression was cold.
After a while, they turned their head and said in a low voice, “From now on, we will attack the mortal realm. It’s time to clean up this era.. I will definitely find you and the Death Realm together.”
