Qi Cultivation Starting from the Repair Panel-Chapter 498 - 338: Blockade
Chapter 498: Chapter 338: Blockade
The two pieces of news released by the Taiqing Daozu, either one of which would affect the entire Great Universe.
The passing of the Dao Lord signifies that the last living creature from the Great Universe, who participated in that ancient war of Ancient Times, has also perished.
This also means the complete end of the previous era.
Nowadays, the living creatures in the Great Universe, including those Ancestral Realm Supreme Beings who have dominated the world for a long duration, are all considered ‘newborns’, with no way to trace back to past events.
And the news of the Immortal Alliance forming alliances with the Myriad Realms has made many living creatures feel a chill without the cold.
The Martial Hall and the Immortal Alliance have been governed by the Starry Sky Barrier for tens of millions of years, and now this superficial peace has finally been torn apart.
The breakup of once the strongest alliance in the Great Universe has led many living creatures to sense the air of the Dao War, restless all day long.
The situation before and after the Dao War of Ancient Times is hardly different from what is happening today.
First, there was unrest throughout the Vast Universe, and then all the Taoist Orthodoxy in the Great Universe were dragged into it.
That brutal war drained the blood of Ancestral Realm living creatures, and in the end, even unknown beings beyond the Ancestral Realm were involved, causing space and time to shatter, and chaos in Yin Yang.
Eventually, Heavenly Fate scattered, and the universe restarted; that passage of ancient history was also completely buried in an unknowable realm, and later generations could not delve into it.
Such a terrifying outcome is akin to an apocalyptic catastrophe for those living creatures whose Cultivation is still insufficient.
After digesting this information, Chu Zheng suddenly had a flash of Spiritual Light in his mind and remembered an old friend.
Nie Longhu.
Back in the Chaos Sea, Nie Longhu had introduced himself as originally from the lineage of the current Taiqing Daozu.
His master, North Spirit Golden Immortal, was also inquired by Chu Zheng in the Myriad Realms, a top-notch powerhouse among the pupils of the Taiqing Daozu, ranked sixth among the nine children of Taiqing, residing in Taiching Heaven with extraordinary Cultivation.
Now that Taiqing Primordial Daoist Lord has become the Taiqing Daozu, Nie Longhu’s lineage’s status in the Myriad Realms will likely soar even higher.
The title of Dao Lord alone is already enough to use.
Moreover, the combat power of the Taiqing Daozu is feared to be far beyond that of ordinary Ancestral Realm beings, a Qi Cultivator who has survived so many tribulations and lived to this extent, the means at their disposal are simply unimaginable for ordinary people.
Gathering his scattered thoughts, Chu Zheng stepped through Heaven Pass and boarded a Flying Boat that spanned over a hundred miles, according to the orders in the transmitted message.
This object is called ‘Starship’, an Immortal Treasure used by the Immortal Alliance when crossing the Star Sea over long distances, mostly used on the battlefield.
Immortal Path Cultivators, regardless of high or low Cultivation, rarely choose to rely on their own immortal power to travel through the universe, as there is no Spiritual Energy in the Great Universe. Even True Immortals can only rely on their own Grotto Heaven and Immortal Jade for replenishing immortal power, which can be somewhat difficult.
Moreover, in a battlefield, one could be attacked at any moment, needing to maintain the best condition at all times, as insufficiency of immortal power in combat could lead to missing the chance for victory or even the hope of escape.
There were already many Cultivators on the Starship, in addition to True Immortals, there were also many Cultivators with Cultivation at the Immortal Tribulation Realm or even the Tongxuan Realm.
The number of Evil Demons is too vast, and even with many True Immortals, it’s impossible to cover the entire battlefield; some strength is needed to fill the gaps in the battlefield.
The atmosphere inside the Starship is somewhat oppressive, dead silent, with no signs of movement, and even the fluctuations of Divine Sense transmission are rare.
The regions governed by the Immortal Alliance are too vast, and those who have succeeded in Cultivation have only a few close friends, if any; these Cultivators mostly do not know each other, thus naturally will not engage in eager conversation, which also caused Chu Zheng’s intention to stealthily gather some news to fall through.
Chu Zheng activated his Spiritual Eye to look around, but did not obtain any useful information. He found a quiet spot to sit down and meditate.
During this time, a few True Immortals detected Chu Zheng’s identity as an Inspector and came forward to greet him.
However, after learning of Chu Zheng’s identity, their expressions all became somewhat peculiar. They exchanged pleasantries for a while and then left, without engaging in further conversation.
Despite not understanding the full situation, Chu Zheng could roughly guess the reasons behind this.
Although he was young and had already stepped into the True Immortal Realm, he ultimately hailed from the Cangyun Realm. Whether he could break free from his shackles and surpass the limits of a True Immortal to become an Immortal Venerable was still a question mark.
Furthermore, his relationship with Zhao Tingxian and Shang Cangyun was not very clear. During this sensitive period, where a great war could erupt at any moment, it was naturally not appropriate to form close ties.
If the positions were reversed, Chu Zheng would also not wish to associate with someone like himself. The unknown risks were too high and potential benefits uncertain. It was better to stay out of trouble.
Amidst fluctuations of immortal power, the Starship was gradually set into motion under the control of an Immortal Venerable, sliding into the vast Star Sea and vanishing without a trace.
…
…
This interstellar journey was much quicker than Chu Zheng had expected. In less than half a day, the Starship gradually came to a stop, arriving at a strange Star Domain.
The evil aura here was somewhat weaker than at the Heaven Pass they had just left, and it was close to the outer edges of the entire battlefield.
Yet because of this, the battles here were even more brutal compared to other areas.
There were living creatures from the Vast Universe who had penetrated through various means. These beings were the first to arrive at this place, and their goals were mostly very straightforward – to relentlessly and ferociously attack the successive barriers laid down by the Immortal Alliance, and to do everything in their power to tear open a breach.
Their bodies were filled with the aura of the Vast Universe. Wherever they passed, they left traces. These traces served as a path for the supreme beings from behind them of the Vast Universe, and they could reach across billions of miles of the Star Sea in an instant.
This was one of the reasons why the periphery of the battlefield was so dangerous.
When Chu Zheng stepped out of the Starship, he received a set of coordinates – the location of the True Immortal he was to replace.
Since the distances between the stars in the Star Sea were so vast, the separation between two stars alone was like a Heaven and Earth that billions of living creatures couldn’t fill.

Therefore, a True Immortal had to look after a vast area. Chu Zheng’s current position was still a certain distance from the coordinates.
While on his way, Chu Zheng saw blood light surging in the Star Sea, with glimpses of shattered star fragments and some unknown bones and fragments.
After another half day’s journey, Chu Zheng finally arrived at the coordinates.
Before he had a chance to look for the True Immortal he was to replace, a dazzling blood cloud suddenly exploded in the Star Sea. The surging bloody qi rose like beacon smoke, entwining with a streak of Immortal Light at one spot.
Boom!
A beam of Immortal Light pierced through the Star Sea, shattering three large stars in a row before finally coming to a slow stop.
The Immortal Light dissipated, revealing a woman in her thirties with tattered clothes. Her left arm was completely torn off, exposing the stark white of her shoulder blade. Immortal Blood was uncontrollably flowing, and the Immortal Armor she wore was entirely shattered, with fragments deeply embedded into her flesh.
Her complexion was extremely pale, her expression as cold and sharp as a blade, her eyes fiercely fixed on the approaching bloody beacon smoke in the distance. She gritted her teeth, and two words squeezed out from between her clenched jaw:
“Martial Hall…”
