While the Immortal Gate was vigorously exterminating the insect beasts, from the outer space of this different world, several figures hidden in the darkness stood coldly observing atop the meteors.
"After finally making some discoveries, as soon as the Immortal Gate arrived, almost everything was destroyed."
The Sect Master of Divine Control spoke, his tone full of dissatisfaction.
They had secretly infiltrated this different world to gather some resources that could elevate themselves to another level. However, due to the eerie and powerful insect beasts underground, even with their realm, they couldnāt say for sure theyād win, so they could only explore step by step slowly.
Among them, the Sect Master of Divine Control used his Devouring Divine Art to possess many insect beasts, gradually deconstructing and approaching the core of the nest.
Yet in the underground nest world, the hierarchy of the insect beasts was strict, so most of the insect beasts he possessed had to emerge in this war against the Immortal Gate and turned into insect corpses.
"Letās take it slow; the Matriarch who slumbers at the heart of the earth, just in terms of power, is already a top contender among Divinity Transformation. Just relying on us, Iām afraid we canāt deal with it, so letās have the Immortal Gate clear the obstacles for us."
The person in the middle of the meteor opened his mouth, his voice hoarse. He stood there, covered in a dark aura, his silhouette barely visible, with no telling if he was male or female.
This person was the Sect Hierarch of the Ascension Sect, the most wanted by the Immortal Gate in nearly a millennium.
"Yes, Sect Hierarch!"
Everyone on the meteors nodded.
"After the Immortal Gate enters, letās hide ourselves, but letās not make things too easy for them. See if we can awaken the Matriarch deep within the Earth. Iāll leave this task to you."
The Ascension Sect Hierarch spoke to the Sect Master of Divine Control and the Dragon and Tiger Ancestor on either side, both of whom nodded lightly.
Among them, the Sect Master of Divine Control relied on the Devour God Technique to possess and infiltrate.
The Dragon and Tiger Ancestor excelled at the Beast Taming Art, and with the cooperation of the Sect Master of Divine Control, contracted quite a few potential insect beasts.
Previously, due to the stable societal structure and hierarchy of the insect beast underground nests, they didnāt dare go too far. But now, with war coming, they could train a few potential insect beasts. As they grew stronger, they could get closer to the Matriarch at the Spirit Transformation Stage.
Especially now, the Immortal Gate, with the Xuanwu Dao Palace, had exterminated two leaders equivalent to the Nascent Soul Realm.
"Has there been any movement from Lin Daoming?"
Finally, the Ascension Sect Hierarch asked the Dragon and Tiger Ancestor, who closed his eyes to perceive, then shook his head, indicating everything was normal.
"Letās see if he can pass this test. If he is willing to give up all emotions, itās fine to show him the Purple Cloud Dao Scripture."
Hearing this from the Ascension Sect Hierarch, the Dragon and Tiger Ancestor nodded lightly.
...
"Whatās wrong!"
In a certain underground cave of the different world, Lin Daoming turned to see Yan Xinji staring at the wall where a golden-red ant, thin as a grain of rice, was eyeing it and not moving forward, furrowing his brows and questioning.
"These ants are very interesting."
Yan Xinji replied, then reached out and placed this group of ants into a glass tube.
"Letās move quickly, I feel the essence of creation from this planet is not far ahead."
After Yan Xinji was done, Lin Daoming urged.
As a cultivator with a Comprehension Path Golden Core in the Immortal Gate, Lin Daoming had the ability to sense the earthās Spiritual Pivot of All Phenomena, which he called "Spiritual Pivot."
Relying on this ability, he could not only perceive the vast energy flowing deep within the earth but also comprehend the marvels of creation over countless years. He could even replace himself with the earthās Spiritual Pivot, honing his own body to rapidly enhance his cultivation level.
Because of this, he was able to find fragments of the Furnace of Life.
He even, at the moment of his successful Nascent Soul Formation, captured the essence that emerged at the Heavenly Instituteās Spirit Veinās birth, envisioning himself with the Fifth Rank Spirit Vein as a pivot, transforming all phenomena in the world, discerning the creation vitality of the Earth Element Star, glimpsing a future corner of Spirit Transformation.
Unfortunately, Qian Xing Ancestor said it was most likely a Heart Demon that, even if it really allowed him Spirit Transformation, sacrificing the Fifth Rank Spirit Vein of the Repairing Heaven Institute would not be permitted.
The thing that disappointed Lin Daoming the most was that all the earthās Spiritual Pivots of the Immortal Gate had already been unified by the Earth Network Great Formation, so his ability was essentially useless within the Immortal Gate.
Moreover, there was another matter.
Besides his Enlightenment Core Formation, Lin Daoming once underwent Immortal Spirit Root Enlightenment, during which his Spiritual Pivot of All Phenomena led him to penetrate the deepest part of the Earth Element Star.
He saw the planetās greatest secret, which was also the real reason the Five Ancestors of Xianmen came here from the distant depths of the universe.
...
Above the different world, Chen Mobai and sixteen other Nascent Soul cultivators from the Immortal Gate were already standing together in threes and fours, chatting within their respective circles.
Not far away, after Narcissus successively exterminated two insect beasts of Nascent Soul Level, the giant opening that originally surged with a terrifying aura began to settle down.
Though occasionally, some grotesque insect beasts emerged, with the Northern Heavenly Gate of Xuanwu Dao Palace hovering above to suppress them, all those surpassing Foundation Establishment level were slaughtered.
During the conversations, the Three Extremes Sage beside Chen Mobai flashed with a silver light, holding several insect beasts bound and immobilized by a gas prison in his hands, along with some corpse fragments from high-ranked insect beasts.
