549: A bizarre altar has been discovered!
"But..."
When the Tidal Empress was about to say something more, Shennong Immortal Emperor stopped her.
"Listen to Jian Lingtian; this is indeed the situation right now."
Finally, the Tidal Empress bit her red lip and averted her gaze.
Subsequently, Saint Heaven Immortal Emperor waved his hand, and a massive map unfolded in the Void Realm.
It was a complete map of the Vast Immortal Domain.
On the map, dozens of locations were marked with red dots.
"These are all forces that have been corrupted by the Eerie."
Saint Heaven Immortal Emperor's voice was low.
"For the next ten years, our goal is to eradicate all these forces."
Jian Lingtian's figure also appeared in the main hall at this moment.
"My Immortal Sword Manor will be responsible for the eastern region."
"My Sacred Heaven Sect will be responsible for the central region."
Saint Heaven Immortal Emperor chimed in.
The Tidal Empress and Shennong Immortal Emperor exchanged glances.
"The western and northern regions will be handled by us."
This plan was reasonable and efficient.
Then, Saint Heaven Immortal Emperor looked at Su Ming.
"Your task is to Cultivate."
"Only when you become stronger will we have the confidence to confront even more powerful Eerie."
Su Ming did not refute.
He knew that his current strength was not enough.
"Understood."
...Ten years later.
Vast Immortal Domain, Eastern Battlefield.
Boom!
A sword light tore through the sky, slicing a massive mountain Peak in half.
The mountain collapsed, and countless Eerie Creatures turned into ashes in the sword light.
Sword One stood with his sword sheathed, his eyes cold.
"The Eerie Clan, eradicated today."
Behind him, the Disciples of Immortal Sword Manor cheered in unison.
"Congratulations to Senior Brother for Breakthrough to Quasi-Immortal Emperor!"
Sword One did not respond, only turning to look into the distance.
That was the center of the Vast Immortal Domain.
"Revered Master, I have not disappointed you."
...Central Battlefield.
Saint Heaven Immortal Emperor struck down with a palm, and the entire sky trembled.
An Eerie Quasi-Immortal Emperor retreated steadily under the palm print, eventually being blasted into a mist of blood.
"The thirteenth."
Saint Heaven Immortal Emperor withdrew his hand, a hint of fatigue flashing in his eyes.
After ten years of war, he had already killed thirteen Eerie Quasi-Immortal Emperors.
He hadn't expected the Eerie Clan hidden in the Vast Immortal Domain to be even more powerful than he had imagined... Western Battlefield.
The Tidal Empress stood above the ocean, surrounded by surging waves.
With a wave of her hand, the seawater transformed into countless sharp blades, completely submerging an eerie city.
"Western region, cleared."
...Northern Battlefield.
Shennong Immortal Emperor shone with brilliant golden light, shattering an eerie altar with a single punch.
The altar collapsed, and countless eerie Qi dissipated.
"Northern region, cleared."
...Immortal Sword Manor!
All the Immortal Emperors gathered together.
After dealing with all the Eerie Clan, they began to allocate the resources of the Vast Immortal Domain.
Su Ming was unaware of all this.
At this moment, he was still in seclusion Cultivating within the Sacred Heaven Sect... Time flew by, and fifty years passed in the blink of an eye.
Fifty years later.
Sacred Heaven Sect, within the Primordial Chaos Pagoda.
Su Ming sat cross-legged, surrounded by Chaos Qi.
Within the Chaos Qi, a True Dragon Phantom could vaguely be seen swimming.
Boom!
A terrifying aura erupted from his body.
Immortal King First Heaven!
Su Ming opened his eyes, a sharp glint flashing within them.
"Finally, a Breakthrough."
After fifty years of seclusion, he not only broke through to the Immortal King Realm, but also fused his Chaos Body and True Dragon Precious Body to a new level.
Now, he was confident in fighting against a powerful expert at the Immortal King Ninth Heaven.
He rose and walked out of the Primordial Chaos Pagoda.
Outside the hall, Su Qingyuan was tending to Empress Cangqiong.
Empress Cangqiong's complexion was much better than fifty years ago, but the starlight in her eyes remained dim.
"Su Ming, you've broken through?"
Empress Cangqiong's voice was gentle.
"Mm."
Su Ming nodded.
"Senior, how are you?"
Empress Cangqiong shook her head.
"The damage to the Origin of the Star Sacred Body is not so easy to recover from."
"Fifty years have passed, are you still unwilling to give up?"
Su Ming was silent for a moment.
"It will get better."
Upon hearing this, Su Qingyuan's expression also darkened.
In these fifty years, her cultivation had also advanced by leaps and bounds.
Now, she was already at the Immortal King Ninth Heaven Realm.
Only one last step remained before she could enter the Immortal Sovereign Realm.
However, what she found most difficult to accept was being unable to heal Empress Cangqiong's injuries.
Just then.
A booming voice came from the sky.
"Su Ming, come to the main hall quickly!"
It was Saint Heaven Immortal Emperor's voice.
Su Ming frowned, and his figure flashed, disappearing from his spot.
Empress Cangqiong followed closely behind.
Sacred Heaven Sect, Main Hall.
When Su Ming arrived, he found that everyone had already gathered in the main hall.
Everyone's expressions were solemn.
"What happened?"
Su Ming asked.
Saint Heaven Immortal Emperor took a deep breath.
"All the eerie forces in the Vast Immortal Domain have been cleared."
"But..."
He paused, a hint of dread flashing in his eyes.
"We discovered a massive eerie altar deep within the Black Sea."
Jian Lingtian chimed in.
"According to our estimations, that altar connects to the core region of the Eerie Clan."
"Once the summoning is successful, beings at the Immortal Emperor Late Stage, or even Immortal Emperor Peak, will descend."
Su Ming's pupils contracted.
Immortal Emperor Peak?
Those were existences standing at the pinnacle of the Vast Immortal Domain.
"When will the altar complete its summoning?"
"No more than three years."
Saint Heaven Immortal Emperor said in a deep voice.
"Therefore, we must destroy that altar within three years."
"But the problem lies here."
"No matter how we attack that altar, we cannot break through it; even using ultimate dao emperor weapons was useless."
As his voice fell.
The main hall fell silent.
After a long while.
Saint Heaven Immortal Emperor spoke.
"So, we called you here to ask you to deduce what the outcome would be if the altar cannot be destroyed."
Upon hearing this, Su Ming's heart sank.
How could he deduce this thing?
He knew all of this through the simulator.
The good news, however, was that the simulator's cooldown had ended.
He could continue with the deductions.
"Don't worry, Senior, I'll go back and deduce it right away!"
As his voice fell, Su Ming turned and left without looking back.
Soon after, he returned to his dwelling.
"Start simulation!"
"Use Talent Qualitative Change!"
[Simulation begins!]
[Using Talent Qualitative Change: Gain two weakened simulation attempts!]
[Day One, you know you can't deduce the result at all.]
[So, you choose to go into seclusion in your dwelling for a month.]
[One month later!]
[You emerge from your dwelling and walk into the main hall amidst everyone's expectant gazes.]
["Young Friend Su, how is it?"]
["What's the result?"]
[Facing everyone's questions, your expression doesn't look too good.]
[You feign composure.]
[You tell everyone that the eerie altar is even more eerie than you imagined.]
["I can't deduce it; what I saw after the deduction was a piece Chaos."]
["This means that the Eerie behind the eerie altar is even more powerful than we imagined!"]
