Chapter 483: Uninvited Guests In the Chaotic Star Sea!
Shen Tian’s Purple Mansion Spiritual World was transforming.
Following the birth of the Yin and Yang energies, a tremendous change had occurred here.
A strange scene appeared in the sky as countless divine rays rained down on the world.
The power of extreme Yang rose like a scorching sun, illuminating heaven and earth.
The originally chaotic world became incomparably clear under the light of the extreme Yang power.
At the same time, an incomparably vigorous life force emerged and descended from the sky.
Specks of divine light shone in the surroundings, dazzling one’s eyes.
As the power of extreme Yang poured down, the spiritual plants grew vigorously, br.i.m.m.i.n.g with vitality.
On the other side, the world was cold and gloomy.
The silver moonlight enveloped the world. It seemed aloof and otherworldly.
Wherever the power of extreme Yin pa.s.sed, all living things would wither and die.
The two forces split into different colors, splitting the spiritual world into two.
...
Shen Tian’s eyes burned when he saw this.
By visualizing the Yin and Yang energies’ changes, Shen Tian’s mind became clear, and he fell into a profound and mysterious state.
A Tai Chi diagram appeared in his mind. Divine light curled around it, and Dao patterns covered it densely.
Yin and Yang interweaved each other, circulating endlessly and forming the scene of life and death of all living beings.
From a baby, who was just learning how to speak, to a young man, who was full of vigor, to a white-haired old man.
In the end, everything would return to Mother Nature and return to the world.
All of this was derived from the order of the Heavenly Dao, and no one could go against it.
When Shen Tian saw this, he felt as if he had comprehended the rise and fall of everything in the world. His aura suddenly changed, an intense vitality surging from within him, making him seem incomparably vigorous.
Shen Tian’s entire body shone, the aura of life overflowing from him.
The surrounding vegetation grew at a speed visible to the naked eye. It grew to a height of 10,000 feet and shot straight into the clouds.
However, soon after, Shen Tian’s life force plummeted, as if he had completely died.
The flowers and plants in the surroundings withered while dead leaves fluttered in the air before transforming into a handful of yellow soil that vanished into thin air.
The cycle of life and death alternated before finally returning to peace.
Shen Tian sank into deep comprehension in this exquisite state, and his body started to transform mysteriously.
Three months later...
Shen Tian’s eyes suddenly opened, emitting a dazzling divine light.
His eyes were deep like the boundless sea of stars.
Although Shen Tian had only been in seclusion for three months, the aura his eyes gave out made it seem as if he had been in seclusion for 100 years or 1,000 years.
He slowly stood up, his gaze fixed on the Purple Mansion Spiritual World that had expanded to millions of miles.
Then, he clenched his fist as if he was grabbing the lifeline of this world.
In that instant, the heavens split apart, and natural laws swirled about.
Endless Yin and Yang energies were drawn over, erupting with resplendent divine light. They seemed extremely dazzling.
A gigantic Tai Chi diagram appeared between heaven and earth. It rotated and alternated with a dense glow.
The power of extreme Yang and extreme Yin burst forth, engulfing heaven and earth.
In that instant, all the living things in this world suddenly grew, and endless creatures were born.
A primordial divine dragon roared through the world, shaking the universe.
An immemorial divine phoenix could be seen roaming the world, its cries reaching the heavens.
There were also many other types of creatures that appeared, their auras vicious and their might able to shake the heavens and earth.
It was like 3,000 FiendG.o.ds had appeared in the heavens and the earth, seeming mighty and awe-inspiring. Their imposing auras shook the universe and shattered the heavens and the earth.
There were some creatures that were terrifying to the extreme. Their eyes were scarlet and dazzling, their entire bodies’ auras oppressing.
They leaped up and charged toward Shen Tian.
Everywhere they pa.s.sed, s.p.a.ce shattered into powder.
Those creatures reached out with their sharp claws. They shone with a cold light as if they wanted to tear the nine heavens apart. They descended with the momentum of a rock piercing through the clouds.
However, Shen Tian’s expression didn’t change.
He slowly raised his hand and gently pressed it against the void.
“Die!”
Shen Tian’s voice was indifferent and solemn. It was like the profound voice of the heavens, causing heaven and earth to crack!
Bam!
In an instant, countless living beings were annihilated, turning into smoke and dissipating.
With one thought, the world could create new beings. And with another thought, the world would be destroyed!
This was a supreme divine skill of creation!
Shen Tian’s lips curled up slightly. This was a supreme divine skill derived from his Yin and Yang energies.
Its power was not much weaker than a divine power that could split heaven and earth.
With the power unleashed by this divine skill, he could easily kill Sub-Immortals who had yet to undergo 15 Tribulations.
Shen Tian’s lips curled up as joy rose in his heart.
I was truly too quick-witted to choose such a good place.
Not only did this trip allow my Purple Mansion Spiritual World to undergo a transformation, but I have even grasped the supreme divine skill of creation.
I have made a killing!
...
Afterward, Shen Tian withdrew his spiritual sense from his Purple Mansion Spiritual World and returned to his true body.
After three months of seclusion, his body had also absorbed a large amount of chaotic aura and reached a saturated state.
Shen Tian’s Chaotic Body also underwent a transformation, and his entire body emitted divine radiance.
Strange runes revolved around his body, filled with vast and immeasurable power.
Given his current strength, he could kill a Sub-Immortal with just his body alone.
Furthermore, Shen Tian’s G.o.dfiend cultivation showed signs that he could break through the Mighty Prowess realm anytime soon and enter the Life Death Calamity realm.
However, he did not choose to break through. Instead, he temporarily suppressed it.
This was because Shen Tian cultivated the Chaotic Tinder Sutra. Once he broke through, his providence would definitely drop.
At this critical juncture, it was better for him to choose the safer route.
After all, Shen Tian never felt that he was a Son of Providence and was worried that he wouldn’t be able to perform under pressure.
Besides, his providence was indeed not as good as a true son of the heavens.
It was better for him to continue developing slowly.
...
Rumble!
At that moment, a terrifying divine might whistled over from a distance.
Heaven and earth seemed to shake, and chaotic energy surged endlessly, giving rise to great waves.
It was as if someone had intruded into the Chaotic Star Sea, unleashing their divine might to shake the heavens and earth.
Shen Tian was astonished.
After all, he was deep within the Chaos Star Island domain.
The chaotic energy here was rich to the extreme, vast and boundless.
A Great Sage would never dare to set foot here. Even Sub-Immortals did not dare to stay here for long. Once the chaotic energy corroded them, they would no longer be able to leave alive.
Where did that power come from?
Just who would enter the Chaotic Star Island at this time?
Shen Tian leaped up and rushed toward the source of the commotion.
...
Nearby, a large group of people headed toward the depths of the island.
They were riding on an ancient flying vessel that covered the sky with a magnificent aura.
The flying vessel was 3,000 meters long. It hovered in the air above the Chaotic Star Island domain as it slowly advanced.
The surroundings were surging chaotic energy, hazy mist swirling about.
This chaotic energy was terrifying, and it was like a monstrous wave that swept through heaven and earth.
From time to time, the flying vessel would be hit by the chaotic aura, and it would shake and emit rumbling sounds.
Even so, the flying vessel did not shatter. It staggered toward the depths of Chaotic Star Island.
If anyone else saw this, their jaws would definitely drop.
The chaotic aura here was too turbulent. Even the body of a Great Sage wouldn’t be able to withstand this type of power. They would easily explode and die.
Even though this flying vessel was a top-grade Great Sage artifact, it couldn’t possibly last that long.
More importantly, two ancient artifacts were hovering over the flying vessel, emanating boundless divine power to protect it.
They were like two keys with strange runes engraved on them. Their auras were ancient and profound.
The two of them were linked together, and they revealed the appearance of a Tai Chi diagram.
With Yin and Yang fused together, they created a dazzling light barrier that enveloped the flying vessel.
Chaotic energy swept over, but it was all blocked by these light screens, unable to enter at all.
...
A group of people stood on the deck of the flying vessel.
They were of all ages, and all of them were wearing ancient Daoist robes as if they were the disciples of a certain sacred ground.
However, these people were divided into two different factions.
One of them had the word Zhuge engraved on his Daoist robe. Behind him was a Tai Chi Eight Trigrams pattern, and in his hand was an ancient Eight Trigrams Compa.s.s.
The leader was a red-haired old man. His face was red, and his eyes were bright.
His aura was vast and unfathomable. There were faint runic patterns on his body. Clearly, he was a powerful existence.
On the other side was a man with the words Sima engraved on his Daoist robe. In his hand was the Five Elements Compa.s.s, and his body was also shrouded in Five Elements Divine Light.
The old man leading this group had a solemn aura. His hair was white, and he looked like an immortal.
In front of the crowd stood an imposing young man with an extraordinary bearing. His eyes were as deep as the stars. He held the Eight Trigrams Compa.s.s in his hand, and the Five Elements Compa.s.s floated behind him.
This person stood at the bow of the ship and had the bearing of a leader.
These people were from the hidden clans of Middle Ground, the Zhuge and Sima clans.
The two leading elders were Zhuge Yuan and Sima Cheng, respectively.
They were all people who had survived the great calamity 10,000 years ago and were extremely powerful.
Although the two of them were Great Sages, they were able to erupt with Sub-Immortal battle prowess with the help of terrain advantages.
The person standing at the bow of the ship was Zhuge Sima, the absolute genius that the two hidden clans thought highly of.
...
The Zhuge clan and Sima clan were both great hidden clans. Their clans had been pa.s.sed down for tens of thousands of years and had deep foundations.
The two great clans were definitely outstanding, even among the hidden clans. Their statuses were high, and they possessed great prestige.
This was because their clan’s ancestors had once slaughtered their way to fame in the past, gaining a reputation that even supreme experts feared.
The power of formations had always been the most mysterious power in the world. It was unfathomable.
The so-called Formation Grandmasters borrowed the power of heaven and earth to gather the momentum of heaven and earth and erupt with boundless might.
How could it be so simple to resist the power of heaven and earth with manpower?
The ancestors of the two great clans had once joined forces to set up a world-shaking supreme killing formation called the Boundless Universe Formation.
This formation alone had killed so many to the point that seas could be dyed red, making all clans feel restraining fear toward these two clans.
However, as time pa.s.sed, the loss of the strongest inheritance of the two clans caused the clans’ strength to plummet.
But even so, the battle strength of these two clans could not be underestimated.
The Zhuge clan was good at using the Eight Trigrams Formations. They could use formations to control the power of Heaven, Earth, Water, Fire, Wind, Thunder, and Mountain Marshes.
When a Formation Grandmaster cultivated to the extreme, they could use the formation to lay down the G.o.d Demon Eight Formations to kill a Perfected Immortal.
The Sima clan was proficient in the Five Elements Formations and could use formations to control the power of Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth.
They could even use a formation to summon the Primordial Demonic Tiger, Demonic Deer, Demonic Bear, Demonic Ape, and Demonic Bird to fight for them.
When people of this clan cultivated to the extreme, they could similarly set up a supreme formation, the Five Element Annihilation Formation. It could kill anything that stood in its way.
However, their most powerful ability was not to kill enemies but to break formations, restrictions, and so on.
Therefore, these two hidden clans had extremely high statuses in Middle Ground.
Even the core disciples of the sacred grounds had to be respectful when they saw the core members of the two great clans.
That was because they often needed their help when they encountered obstacles and problems in mystic realms.
Only the people of these two clans dared to enter the Chaotic Star Island domain at this time.
They could borrow the power of formations and the treasures left behind by their ancestors to set up earth-shattering formations to resist the chaotic energy.
However, these two clans had never been on good terms. They had been competing with each other since their ancestors’ generation, wanting to fight for the t.i.tle of the first clan in the five regions.
The two clans had similar battle prowess, and their battle methods were also extremely similar, so there was no clear result.
However, the conflict and entanglement between the two of them had never stopped. It had already lasted for tens of thousands of years, and they had always refused to submit to each other.
They all boasted that they were orthodox inheritances of the formation lineage and wanted to restore their ancestors’ glory.
That was until this generation when the peerless genius Zhuge Sima appeared.
He was a peerless formation genius born from a marriage alliance between the two clans. He possessed the inheritance of the Zhuge clan and the Sima clan, the two great formation clans.
In fact, Zhuge Sima had already cultivated the top legacies of the two clans to the Greater Mastery stage at a young age.
It could be said that he was the most talented member of the younger generation in the history of the two great formation clans.
The two great clans saw hope in Zhuge Sima to revive the glory of their ancestors.
Only then did the conflict between the two clans lessen, the atmosphere barely easing up.
Therefore, under the request of Zhuge Sima, the two great clans had joined forces to march into the Chaotic Star Island domain.
However, even though the two great clans had joined forces, they were not able to travel freely in the Chaos Star Island domain.
This place contained great secrets and great danger. Even they were careful when coming here, not daring to casually touch anything.
If they were careless, they might bring about a disaster to them.
Thus, the two great formation clans had to tread carefully and slowly here.
However, the two clans did not feel bored along the way.
They had been fighting for tens of thousands of years, and their talking skills had long been trained to a G.o.d-like level.
A Zhuge disciple who was about 20 years old walked out. He looked at the Sima disciple at the helm and sneered. “Are you sure your Sima clan is leading us the right way?
“We’ve been in the Chaos Star Island domain for a month. Are you sure you can do it?
“If you can’t do it, then hurry home and get some sleep!
“Let our Zhuge clan lead the way!”
This disciple’s words instantly caused the Sima disciple’s eyes to widen with anger. He furiously said, “Only your Zhuge clan can do it?
“If it wasn’t for you all, how could we have lost our way?
“If our Sima clan had taken the helm right from the start, there would definitely be no problem at all.”
The Zhuge disciple sneered. “You guys just can’t do it! Get out of the way. Don’t embarra.s.s yourself here.”
A few Sima disciples immediately walked out and said to the Zhuge disciples indignantly, “You guys only know how to make sarcastic remarks.”
“When the chaotic wave came earlier, why did you all shrink your necks and not speak like turtles?”
The Zhuge disciples jumped up in anger and retorted, “What did you say?”
“If it wasn’t for the defensive array set up by our Zhuge clan, you guys would have long been dead!”
The Sima disciple, “%$#@...”
The Zhuge disciple, “@#$%...”
...
On the flying vessel, shouts and curses rang out continuously.
It wasn’t just the disciples of the two clans arguing.
Even the elders of the two clans were arguing with flushed faces and saliva flying everywhere.
Sima Cheng coldly snorted. “If it wasn’t for our Sima clan’s exceptional skills, how could we have made it this far? If we were to depend on you guys, we would have long become nutrients for the chaotic aura!”
Zhuge Yuan shouted at the top of his voice, “Sima Cheng, I think you’re just a toad sneezing—such big words. Why are you guys pretending to be all so mighty in front of us?
“I am all too familiar with you guys! I even know when you want to pee, s.h.i.t or fart!”
Sima Cheng’s face was red, and his hand that was pointing at Zhuge Si was trembling. “You’re such a crude person. I don’t want to be on the same team as you!”
Zhuge Yuan sneered and said, “Get lost if you’re unhappy. If you don’t get lost, you’re my son!”
Sima Cheng, “...”
...
They did not have the dignity of an expert at all. They were like small disciples of the city, arguing non-stop.
Seeing this scene, Zhuge Sima could not help but hold his forehead helplessly.
He was already used to such situations.
If the two clans were to stay together, there would definitely be a small quarrel every three days and a big fight every five days!
Although the two elders were quarreling till their faces were red, they still knew their limits. They would not fight.
Normally, Zhuge Sima would simply not interfere. After all, interfering would be useless.
However, they were still in the Chaotic Star Island domain. He had to intervene!
...
Even the disciples at the helm were cursing at each other. No one was controlling the flying vessel anymore!
This was the Chaotic Star Island domain, and danger was everywhere!
If anything happened, everyone would die!
