Immortality Starts With Diligence(Xianxia Litrpg)

511. Joining Forces Again, Descending on Shen’s Territory!

"Hmm? Friend Mi Tian, just for this? To slay Shen?"

Lin Fei looked meaningfully at Heart Demon Martial God. So, Heart Demon Martial God was after Shen. Or perhaps, Heart Demon Martial God originally lacked ambition. But after acquiring the world's origin this time, he developed such aspirations. He, too, wished to shatter the void, even to become a Martial Ancestor.

However, Mi Tian's foundation was weak. In his previous tribulations, he obtained too few laws. Now, relying on the quantity of laws to comprehend a complete Dao was too difficult. Thus, he sought an alternative path. He hoped to master the path of illusion through a deep understanding of the laws of illusion. But that required external aid.

The divine-level exotic beast Shen, proficient in illusion and mind control, possessed innate talents in these areas. Naturally skilled in creating illusions and controlling minds, if Heart Demon Martial God could acquire Shen's bloodline, and then slowly dissect, study, and comprehend it, he might indeed comprehend a complete path of illusion.

"Why didn't you try to slay Shen before?" Lin Fei inquired.

"Shen's illusions are too strong, And it can control minds, which precisely suppresses me. Seeking help from anyone else was futile. But fellow daoist Lin, your arrival changes things. Your laws seem to counteract illusions. Only you can slay Shen."

Heart Demon Martial God probably had some plans in his mind when Lin Fei fought him previously. But he had waited until now to mention it. And he even forcibly linked it to the death of North Wind True Person.

"So, you're suggesting North Wind True Person's death might have been Shen's doing?"

"I don't know, but Shen is capable of killing North Wind True Person."

Lin Fei nodded thoughtfully. He didn't rush to answer, looking steadily at Mi Tian. The implication was clear. What benefit would there be for Lin Fei in slaying Shen?

After all, it was a risky endeavor, and slaying a divine-level exotic beast was no trivial matter. Without a benefit, Lin Fei wouldn't undertake such a task.

Heart Demon Martial God hesitated for a moment before speaking in a grave tone, "I have uncovered that Shen still has a descendant of its bloodline, who is currently in its infancy. If you slay Shen, you can obtain this young offspring. Whether you refine it into an external avatar or keep it as a spiritual pet, the choice is yours."

Lin Fei shook his head, "Not enough! A juvenile Shen, I can slay it alone and obtain it."

Mi Tian gritting his teeth, continued, "Upon successful completion of this task, I will grant you five Saber World secret realms. How does that sound? No matter the means I employ, I will ensure you receive five Saber World secret realms as a token of gratitude!"

Heart Demon Martial God finally revealed his trump card. He knew what Lin Fei needed most. Five Saber World secret realms might seem slightly insufficient for the current Lin Fei.

However, the addition of a juvenile Shen was almost enough to sway him. Lin Fei did not inquire how the Martial God had come to possess five Saber World secret realms. Judging by his demeanor, these realms were not easily obtained, certainly requiring some sacrifice. Yet, for Lin Fei, it was sufficient.

"When do we depart?" Lin Fei asked.

Heart Demon Martial God's heart swelled with joy. Lin Fei's inquiry signified his agreement.

After a moment's thought, the Martial God said directly, "If we are to go, then let's proceed with utmost haste. We can leave now, catching Shen unawares. However, Lin, one thing must be made clear. Shen belongs to the All Beasts Alliance, which is not particularly friendly towards our human cultivators. Therefore, once we confront Shen, we must strike quickly and decisively, without delay. Otherwise, the True Monarch-level powerhouses of the All Beasts Alliance may intervene!"

The All Beasts Alliance, while a force in the Divine Realm, was somewhat different. It primarily consisted of exotic beasts. The relationship between exotic beasts and human cultivators was far from friendly. Both sides engaged in relentless battles, accumulating countless grudges. Many exotic beasts harbored hostility towards human cultivators. Similarly, human cultivators never regarded exotic beasts as equals.

Once they ventured into the All Beasts Alliance territory to slay Shen, Provoking the True Monarch powerhouses to act directly wouldn't be surprising.

"I understand. We must act swiftly and silently, preferably not alerting Shen at all," Lin Fei acknowledged.

With Saber World at his disposal, he could unleash all his techniques in an instant, slaying his foes. In Saber World, no sound would escape unless the opponent could tear through it.

"Very well, we depart now."

Thus, Lin Fei followed behind the Martial God, swiftly leaving the Ancient City, and heading towards the All Beasts Alliance.

The All Beasts Alliance, the territory of Shen.

Shen was deep in slumber, a state it deeply cherished. Or rather, in its endless life, it spent at least sixty to seventy percent of its time asleep. Its periods of wakefulness were rare.

Once Shen fell asleep, it would exhale bubbles from its mouth. These bubbles, mesmerizingly beautiful, would trap any life form that touched them, be it an exotic beast or a human cultivator.

Anyone who encountered these bubbles would be ensnared in a phantasmagoric realm, a delusion so captivating that one might remain submerged in it, oblivious to reality. Each bubble was akin to an "independent" illusory world. Hence, these bubbles were also known as the Realms of Illusion!

Shen's innate ability was illusion. Its prowess in this art was unimaginably profound. Throughout its prolonged existence, even in slumber, none dared provoke it.

Even a Deity Transformation, with just a thought, could be ensnared in its control and thus slain. The Martial God was no exception. Unable to withstand its illusion, it would fall under its control.

In terms of illusion, the Martial God was but a novice in Shen's presence, incomparable in every respect. Without a means to counter Shen's power, no one dared provoke it.

Even a True Monarch, who harbored vulnerabilities in their spirit, feared Shen. Shen's illusions targeted the psyche, thus granting it a unique standing.

Within the All Beasts Alliance, it was regarded as a True Monarch in its own right.

"Swoosh".

At that moment, two beams of light had already penetrated into Shen's territory. There were few exotic beasts in this domain, and those present were either asleep or caught in illusions. Shen's exhaled bubbles enveloped the entire territory, rendering it the most tranquil of realms.

"Lin, do not touch these bubbles," the Martial God warned gravely, his face etched with seriousness. "My illusion techniques can barely contend with the phantasms within Shen's territory. The rest is up to you."

Mi Tian had now fully realized the terror of Shen. Merely in its slumber, the unconscious release of these illusions was enough to put the Martial God on high alert, requiring his utmost effort to resist. What if Shen were to awaken? Probably a mere glance would be sufficient to plunge the Martial God into a deep abyss of illusion.

"Saber World!"

Lin Fei took a step forward, and instantly, the Saber World descended, encompassing only himself. It isolated him from the outside world, rendering him impervious to external illusions.

"Swoosh."

In a flash, Lin Fei appeared before a massive exotic beast – Shen itself! Even then, Shen's mouth continued to emit bubbles, each one a marvel of beauty, almost too poignant to disrupt.

Yet, Lin Fei remained unaffected. His Saber World, with a fierce shimmer, engulfed Shen in its vast expanse, drawing it into the realm of the Saber World.
