Chapter 3763 The Four Ancient Immortal Continents

In the time that followed,

Shen Changqing used other half-saints as his opponents to familiarize himself with the strength of his Primordial Immortal Body.

He now had a thorough understanding of the changes brought about by the completion of his Immortal Body.

Shen Changqing discovered that

his recovery ability was far stronger than recorded in the ancient texts.

This

recovery was not only in terms of physical injuries, but also in terms of immortal power and blood.

If a comparison had to be made, Shen Changqing estimated that the difference was at least several dozen times, or even more.

It could be said that

unless a powerful figure killed him instantly with absolute strength, Shen Changqing was confident of survival.

This was the advantage brought by the completion of his Immortal Body.

To be precise,

this was the advantage of the completion of the Primordial Immortal Body.

Different immortal bodies have their own differences.

According to the records in the ancient texts, even if other immortal bodies had amazing recovery abilities after completion, they could not achieve the same level as the Primordial Immortal Body.

Shen Changqing was naturally satisfied with this result.

Afterwards,

Shen Changqing entered the first level of spatial seclusion.

This seclusion was short, only a hundred years.

However, in a hundred times the time scale, a hundred years outside corresponds to ten thousand years in the Divine Tower space.

After emerging from seclusion,

news from the Xingdao Alliance arrived.

Many acquired demon gods had ventured deep into this immortal realm, and Shen Changqing was already familiar with news about it.

“Dongming Immortal Prefecture!”

“Xingluo Immortal Realm—”

Upon seeing the news from the Xingdao Alliance, Shen Changqing’s expression turned somewhat solemn.

He had heard of the four words “Dongming Immortal Prefecture.” Of the

three thousand six hundred immortal prefectures in the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm

, most had experienced calamities and were destroyed more than once in ancient times. However, immortal prefectures are difficult to destroy, and even after experiencing calamities of destruction, they can gradually recover their vitality with the nurturing of time.

Only four immortal prefectures were spared from the calamities of destruction.

These four immortal prefectures

are Dongming Immortal Prefecture, Xiling Ghost Prefecture, Nanyuan Dao Prefecture, and Beihuang Divine Prefecture!

Shen Changqing had not expected that the Void Breaking Talisman would directly send him here.

“The Four Ancient Immortal Continents possess immense strength and profound foundations, making them the most prestigious among the many immortal continents in the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm. Other immortal continents pale in comparison.

Even the numerous dark cults dare not easily venture into the Four Ancient Immortal Continents—”

Information about the Four Ancient Immortal Continents surfaced in Shen Changqing’s mind, his face grave.

Undoubtedly,

such ancient immortal continents often possess the most astonishing foundations.

After all, other immortal continents have experienced the calamities of destruction and rebirth. Each calamity of a continent’s destruction is a reshuffling, with old powers perishing and new ones taking their place.

Consequently, the foundations of many immortal continents are difficult to accumulate indefinitely.

But the Four Ancient Immortal Continents are different.

Their foundations have accumulated over countless years, and the number of reclusive powerhouses within them is unknown.

This demonstrates the terrifying nature of the Four Ancient Immortal Continents.

However— while

the Four Ancient Immortal Continents are indeed perilous, they also offer numerous opportunities.

Over countless ages, countless ancient beings have left behind their legacies within the Four Ancient Immortal Continents. For ordinary cultivators, even finding a fraction of these legacies would be an unparalleled stroke of luck.

As for the Star Luo Immortal Domain, it is the top immortal domain ranked 119th in the Eastern Bright Immortal State.

The Dao Yuan Immortal Sect

is one of the top forces in the Star Luo Immortal Domain.

The Fuyao Holy Land, where they are currently located, is insignificant, belonging to the category of ordinary forces in the Star Luo Immortal Domain.

“The Dao Yuan Immortal Sect can be considered a top force in the Star Luo Immortal Domain, so its strength is probably not that simple. That Six Tribulation Half-Saint might not be the full strength of the Dao Yuan Immortal Sect.

It seems that not confronting the Dao Yuan Immortal Sect back then has reduced some trouble!”

Shen Changqing’s eyes narrowed slightly, secretly wary of the Dao Yuan Immortal Sect.

If it were a top immortal domain in another immortal state, a force with a Half-Saint presiding over it would be considered top-tier, which wouldn’t be surprising to Shen Changqing.

But as mentioned before,

this is the Eastern Bright Immortal State,

one of the four ancient immortal states of the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm.

Here, the strength of a top immortal domain is absolutely immeasurable.

For the Dao Yuan Immortal Sect to think it could reach the pinnacle of the immortal domain with just a Six Tribulation Half-Saint is absolutely impossible.

Therefore…

There must be other powerful figures within the Dao Yuan Immortal Sect.

Although Shen Changqing hadn’t sensed the auras of other powerful figures back then, he could be certain of this.

After all,

when he investigated the Dao Yuan Immortal Sect earlier, he hadn’t fully explored it before being discovered by their half-saint.

Moreover,

it was normal for Shen Changqing not to detect some top-tier experts who deliberately concealed their auras.

Perhaps— there

were even saints within the Dao Yuan Immortal Sect.

However, Shen Changqing couldn’t be certain whether there were saints, but he believed it was true that the Dao Yuan Immortal Sect had more than one half-saint.

Thinking of this ,

Shen Changqing shook his head, his expression returning to its calm state.

“Dongming Immortal State is good too. It’s separated from Shenfeng State by hundreds of immortal states. Even if the Eternal Immortal Court is strong, it’s difficult for it to reach this place.

In this way, the threat from the Six Sects, Nine Dynasties, and Thirteen Holy Lands can be temporarily ignored!”

Dongming Immortal State is good!

After provoking the Eternal Immortal Court and many other forces, seeking refuge in such an immortal state is even safer than in the Chaos.

The reason is simple.

Establishing a Daoist temple in chaos is fraught with danger.

No one can be certain whether a powerful expert will pass by, or a mighty chaotic beast will casually annihilate them.

In a typical immortal continent, forces like the Eternal Immortal Court might discover their whereabouts, causing numerous troubles.

But the situation is different in the Eastern Bright Immortal Continent.

As one of the oldest immortal states, this place possesses unfathomable depths.

This, in turn

, serves as a powerful deterrent to other cultivators.

No one can guarantee that a reclusive, supreme expert might suddenly emerge from nowhere.

Therefore,

many cultivator factions dare not act too recklessly.

Ultimately,

it boils down to three words:

following the rules!

Although Dongming Immortal State still adheres to the law of the jungle, at least some rules apply, unlike the chaotic state of other immortal states.

This is ideal for Shen Changqing.

His current task is to wait—to await the arrival of the Great Tribulation, the manifestation of the Great Dao of Longevity, and then step into the Half-Saint Realm.

This is a crucial step, a leap over the dragon gate.

Once he breaks through, it will be a true ascension to heaven, a complete break from the cage, and the attainment of true immortality.

Before that,

Shen Changqing has nothing else to do.

At most,

he can refine more Longevity Pills to further enhance his foundation.

The battle in the Divine Sun Domain truly demonstrated the benefits of Longevity Pills to him.

If he had enough Longevity Elixirs, Shen Changqing might even have the confidence to fight a Saint face-to-face.

After all

, as his strength increased, he found that he could use the power of the Soul-Destroying Sword more effectively.

However—

having the confidence to fight didn’t mean he could kill a Saint.

If he were to fight a Saint to the death, Shen Changqing felt that he would ultimately be the one to perish.

There was no way around it.

The gap between the two sides was too great, and it couldn’t be bridged by a single treasure.

To truly confront a Saint, even with the Soul-Destroying Sword in hand, he would need to at least break through to the Half-Saint realm before he had any chance.

Afterward,

Shen Changqing glanced at the Fuyao Holy Land.

As an ordinary force in the Star Luo Immortal Domain, the Fuyao Holy Land was not simple in its strength.

Under his divine sense, the entire Fuyao Holy Land had nineteen Immortal Emperors.

The strongest of these Immortal Emperors had already reached the peak of cultivation.

Such a force would not be underestimated even in the top Immortal Domains of the Divine Wind Continent, and in some top Immortal Domains, it could even be considered top-tier.

For example, the Illusionary God Domain was like that back then.

But in the Star Luo Immortal Domain, the Fuyao Holy Land, with such a foundation, was just an ordinary force.

This also indirectly proves one thing:

the foundation of the Eastern Bright Immortal Continent is truly well-deserved.

…

In the following time,

Shen Changqing spent most of his time in the immortal mansion of the Fuyao Holy Land. Although the vast Fuyao Holy Land had many Immortal Emperors and hundreds of thousands of disciples, he didn’t discover anything unusual.

During this time ,

he also left the Fuyao Holy Land to travel outside.

His purpose was to further understand the situation in the Star Luo Immortal Domain and see if he could collect some materials for refining the Longevity Elixir.

Outside the Fuyao Holy Land, fifteen million miles away, there was a magnificent immortal city called Tianyong Immortal City, founded by a Nine Tribulation Half-Saint who called himself Tianyong Venerable.

However, although that Tianyong Venerable perished many years ago, the Longevity Immortal Clan he left behind has continued to this day.

Because the Venerable Tianyong was surnamed Zhou, the ruler of Tianyong Immortal City was naturally the Changsheng Zhou Clan.

Tianyong Immortal City was magnificent; although not comparable to Tiandao Immortal City, it was still not to be underestimated. The Changsheng Zhou Clan’s ability to govern such an immortal city indicated their considerable strength.

According to Shen Changqing’s information, the Changsheng Zhou Clan also had several half-saints residing there.

This further confirmed the power of the Star Luo Immortal Domain.

The fact that a single immortal city could have more than one half-saint residing there spoke volumes about the domain’s strength.

However—

Shen Changqing had no intention of contacting the Changsheng Zhou Clan. His purpose in going to Tianyong Immortal City was merely to collect some alchemy materials.

It is worth mentioning, however, that

he discovered the Tongtian Pavilion within Tianyong Immortal City. Shen Changqing couldn’t help but admire

this

; the Tongtian Pavilion truly lived up to its name.

He had always thought that the claim that the Tongtian Pavilion was spread across 3,600 immortal states in the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm was just an exaggeration.

But now, it seemed that what the other party said might not be false.

If that were the case, then Shen Changqing would have to reassess the strength of the Tongtian Pavilion.

After all,

he did have some grudges against the Tongtian Pavilion.

The death of a steward at his hands was a matter that could be considered a big deal or a small one.

But clearly, the Tongtian Pavilion in Tiandao Immortal City had little to do with Tianyong Immortal City, and since Shen Changqing had gone there in disguise, the Tongtian Pavilion cultivators responsible for receiving him did not notice anything unusual.

Everything went quite smoothly.
