Reigning Supreme in countless worlds With Beast taming

Chapter 655: Arrival in the Otherworld, Facing War



After the cultivators entered the Grotto Heaven, they soon discovered the bustling activity within White Bone Cave Heaven. Aside from the ten thousand cultivators who had arrived with them, there were millions more stationed in various locations.

These were cultivators previously brought in from other regions by White Bone City, clearly prepared to be sent collectively into that otherworld for battle.

After all, it was a high-level world, brimming with countless powerful beings and innumerable armies. Thus, the Ten Directions Ghost City had requisitioned numerous cultivators from various sects in the Northern Domain to join the war.

Even though many major sects had already dispatched their main forces to otherworldly expeditions, and because the Ghost Ancestor personally directed and stationed there, Ten Directions Ghost City was confident in conquering that otherworld without having to commit all the power of the Northern Domain.

Otherwise, it would be hard for ordinary cultivators to imagine the sheer amount of power that the Northern Domain could amass!

With so many cultivators gathered together, the originally eerie and terrifying White Bone Cave Heaven became extraordinarily lively, filled everywhere with vibrant energy.

Qin Feng and another followed the team from Lingyun Sword Sect to their designated camp and settled down for some self-cultivation.

Apart from Lingyun Sword Sect, there were many other small sects' cultivators nearby. Some who had arrived earlier were one thing, but those who came together couldn't help but glance over to see if Qin Feng and Li Miaozhen would stir up some commotion again.

It wasn't just these small sects— even larger sects that entered this Grotto Heaven world had to clear the ground themselves to set up various pavilions and palaces as rest areas. If they didn't have such treasures, just clearing a patch of land and setting up simple prohibitions would suffice; after all, they were not going to stay long in this Grotto Heaven.

In fact, the cultivators would stay here far shorter than they had anticipated.

Within a day, White Bone Castle traveled a million miles, picking up other groups of cultivators and bringing them into the Grotto Heaven. Not long after, it returned to Ten Directions Ghost City.

The space gate leading to the high-level world was not in White Bone City, but rather in Nine Nether City, one of the most powerful locations within Ten Directions Ghost City.

Nine Nether City was located amidst a ring of mountains. Because the surrounding peaks were so towering, this place remained dark year-round, with Yin Wind blowing frequently, Netherworld surrounding the outside, and Ghost Energy swirling inside. The cultivators of Nine Nether City could be seen floating about everywhere like ghosts!

However, they were just borrowing too many techniques from the Netherworld Ghost Realm; they were still alive!

But if one opened the Spiritual Eye and looked carefully, they would see layers of ghost shadows on them, which were the subdued ghosts, some bound within various magic artifacts, some directly attached to their magic robes, flickering in and out of sight.

"Hurry, hurry, go through the space gate ahead. Do not look around here. If you want to experience the scenery of Nine Nether City after you return, the cultivators of Nine Nether City will definitely welcome you warmly. Those little fellows surely want to borrow the energy from you to bring more Yang energy to the city. But for now, do not hesitate and enter the space gate quickly!"

A highly cultivated immortal from Nine Nether City stood next to the space portal, continuously urging everyone to enter quickly.

Not all the city lords of Ten Directions Ghost City were battling in Otherworlds; a few remained behind. Although the White Bone Daoist would go with them, he did not plan to bring White Bone Castle, preferring to leave it to guard White Bone City.

Thus, the cultivators from various sects who wanted to engage in Otherworld battles could only fly into the space portal, and then tasks were assigned inside.

Since this space portal was constructed in haste, it had many limitations, preventing many large Space Magical Treasures from flying through directly. Otherwise, it would be much more convenient if the cultivators could enter by various flying boats, tower ships, palaces.

Opening the space portal required a tremendous amount of energy. Since the Ten Directions Ghost City sent cultivators at different times, it needed to be opened ten times. Even with the vast resources of Nine Nether City, the Immortal in charge felt quite distressed about it, which is why he urged everyone to hasten, as any delay consumed more treasures.

Unless Biluo won more battles in that world and occupied more territories, thereby enhancing the space gates through those world nodes, a stable space channel could not be formed, and resource consumption would not decrease in the future!

"Let's go!"

Qin Feng glanced at the turbulent Netherworld Evil Water in the distance, feeling the endless aggrieved souls within, then eyed Nine Nether City, seeing many residual souls howling under its walls. He shivered and hurriedly tugged on Li Miaozhen's sleeve, following the team into the space gate.

"Eh?"

The Immortal guarding the space gate was a Peak Profound Immortal, no weaker in strength than Elder Kongkong. Otherwise, he would not have been assigned to oversee this space gate.

As Qin Feng and the other passed in front of him, the Profound Immortal's expression shifted, his gaze intensifying as he looked at them.

This movement instantly frightened Qin Feng, his spirit jumping wildly, extremely worried that this highly cultivated Immortal would slap them dead as Demon Cultivators without asking any questions.

It wasn't unreasonable for the Immortal to notice something amiss. Although the secret technique of the Spirit Turtle that twisted fate and concealed their energies was powerful, its cultivation was too low. Although it had deceived a Demon Immortal before, that Demon Immortal was only at the True Immortal Realm, and could not be compared to a Peak of Profound Immortal!

Moreover, with so much time having passed, the Spirit Turtle was already panting desperately. If it weren't for the prohibitions Qin Feng had secretly set in the Grotto Heaven to let it rest, it would have been unable to maintain the secret technique continuously.

Just when Qin Feng was panicking and considering confessing to this senior, the Profound Immortal's ears twitched, and he shifted his gaze from them to the others, "Move quicker, what's with the dawdling? If you delay like this on the battlefield, be careful you might lose your life!"

As he spoke, dozens of grey Space Stones flew from his hand and landed on the Array Map nodes of the space door, maintaining its operation.

"Sigh…"

Although Qin Feng had entered and exited space gates more than once, this time, the sensation within the space channel felt especially prolonged. Clearly, the high-level world on the other side was many times farther than the distance between Biluo and the Red Flame Demon Realm, otherwise, it wouldn't have given him this feeling.

Standing outside the space gate, looking at the blue sky and scenery so different from Biluo, Qin Feng couldn't help but take a long sigh of relief.

Thank goodness, although Qin Feng didn't know why the Immortal suddenly shifted their gaze away from them, it was clear there was no intention to target them.

Now that they had entered this world and were no longer safeguarded by the numerous people in the city, he and Li Miaozhen could find opportunities to leave at any time.

Then they could change their identities and not worry about being hunted by cultivators anymore.

If they encountered attacks from powerhouses of this realm, that wouldn't be an issue. Being inherently adversaries, mutual combat was inevitable at times as long as they weren't besieged by numerous powerhouses; Qin Feng and the others wouldn't care.

As for the divine beings of higher realms, naturally, the Ten Direction Ghost City and the Immortal representatives of the Sects in the Northern Domain would deal with them.

Powerhouses had their own battlefields. Normally, unless the situation deteriorated severely, both sides wouldn't directly decimate the weaker ones.

Otherwise, if a formidable entity massacred the weak indiscriminately, it would cause massive chaos leading to retaliation from the opposing side, bringing even greater harm to the lower-level forces—an act tantamount to mutual destruction that might exceed hundreds of thousands.

After all, the destructive power of powerhouses was astonishing. If an Immortal Realm existence truly embarked on a reckless slaughter of the lower forces, even a Demigod would stand no chance and would be annihilated just like any common being.

"Lingyun Sword Sect, Sky Splitting Sword Sect, Heavenly Sword Sect, Mingxin Sword Sect, Tianlan Sword Sect... gather here!"

With a stern shout, immediately, all the named Sword Cultivation Sects mounted their swords and flew towards that direction.

Apart from them, near the Space Gate, several Immortals were directing various small to medium Sects to gather, assigning various tasks according to their Sect's specialties.

Major Sects, due to their superior strength compared to ordinary smaller sects, had a certain say and could participate in the Ten Direction Ghost City's battle plans, selecting battlefields later on. If their Immortal Realm powerhouses did not accompany, they could collaborate with other aligned major forces.

Sects like Lingyun Sword Sect, without options, had to obey the Ten Direction Ghost City's arrangements.

Since they belonged to the Sword Cultivation Sect which specialized in combat, when the time came, they would be assigned to the front lines of the battlefield, even leading as the vanguard.

There was no choice; after all, they were sword cultivators!

What else would sword cultivators do on the battlefield if not fight? Surely they didn't plan to handle logistics?

While logistics teams were not absent, these were roles for Sects specialized in crafting Magical Treasures, Spirit Pills, Talismans, etc., possessing unique lineage skills, clearly not attributes of Lingyun Sword Sect.

This was also why the Lingyun Sword Sect hadn't sent any cultivators skilled in alchemy or sword crafting this time; all were sword cultivators proficient in combat. This was because the Ten Direction Ghost City had already set the tasks from the beginning, ordering the small to medium Sects to only send cultivators that matched their lineage's forte.

Lingyun Sword Sect and others were soon assembled by a Sword Immortal emanating a strange aura from the Ten Direction Ghost City. He then handed them a Sword Array map, instructing them to practice together.

"The battlefield is brutal. Unless you can achieve the Immortal Dao, relying solely on individual strength is negligible on a battlefield against a high-rank world. Only by gathering together and utilizing a War Formation can you have more chances to survive and eventually secure victory, seize resources, and carve a path for the future," the stern-faced Sword Immortal said. "You have three days to master this War Formation well enough to deploy it; otherwise, once on the battlefield, if you cannot display the corresponding War Power and your array is broken, you'll have to rely on your own abilities to survive."

"This…"

An Elder from the Sky Splitting Sword Sect hesitated, "Is three days too tight? With these disciples' cultivation levels, it's quite challenging to become proficient in such a short time!"

"There's no other way,"

The Sword Immortal replied indifferently, "I could give you more time to practice slowly, but the enemy won't!

In truth, the battlefield is intensifying. The fact that I can give you a few days to practice without directly sending you into battle means those cultivators at the front are under great pressure."

He paused, glanced left and right at the many sword cultivators, and said, "Alright, I've given the instructions. I need to rush to the front lines. Practice diligently; in three days' time, I'll be back to take you to the battlefield.

Whether you can withstand the test, withstand the attacks of this world's beings, and seize various resources, depends on your luck!"

With that, he turned into a sword light, soared through the sky, and vanished at the end of heaven!

"..."

The leading Elders of these Sword Cultivation Sects exchanged helpless glances, then quickly gathered to study the Sword Array bestowed by the Sword Immortal.

They needed to familiarise themselves first to command their disciples in practice promptly.

Fortunately, all were cultivators who had comprehended the Laws, possessing notable strength. Additionally, the Sword Array left by that Sword Immortal wasn't too complex. Therefore, they soon grasped the intricacies of the Sword Array.

Mainly, the Sword Immortal had considered the mixed abilities of the various sects' cultivators; hence, the requirements of the Sword Array weren't too high—just enough that if they could gather their Sword Qi at one point, performing a few variations according to commands to handle common combats would suffice.

Time flew, and before long, three days had passed. The Sword Immortal from the Ten Direction Ghost City appeared precisely on time before them. After briefly observing their practiced results and nodding noncommittally, he gestured for them to follow him, ready to head to the battlefield!
