Chapter 847: The Abyss's Indulgence, The Unreachable Tian Di Peak

Danzong Luochen received a strike from the Abyss's Thunder Daoist?

This unexpected encounter left everyone in disbelief.

And the result was even more incredible!

Who was this Thunder Daoist?

Among those who had reached the Huashen Realm in the Abyss Holy Land, he was the most renowned and powerful, and he was also the most promising candidate to advance to the Huashen Realm in the Eastern Wilderness.

Since his debut, he had rarely been defeated.

Rumor had it that he was the one-in-a-million genius who could comprehend the Principle True Meaning at the Yuanying Realm.

His recent achievements only further proved his capabilities.

He had pursued and defeated Jinxiu Immortal, captured Bi Zheng, and even joined forces with two others to capture Gao Chang among the demons.

These accomplishments were almost on par with the reputation of Qing Shuang Demon Sovereign.

Some even secretly bestowed upon him the title of being invincible among those in the Huashen Realm in the Eastern Wilderness.

Such a formidable existence could not be challenged by those of the same cultivation level. Even a casual strike was not something a weak opponent could withstand.

But right before them, Danzong Luochen, renowned for his mastery of pill concoction, effortlessly blocked that strike without revealing his full strength.

Who wouldn't be shocked by this?

Tian Duzi's face showed surprise, and he muttered, "Although Thunder Daoist didn't use his full strength, Luochen's response was indeed beyond my expectations."

Jiu Ling Yanyun's expression turned solemn as he scrutinized Luochen, as if seeing him for the first time.

Lin Qingxuan pursed his lips, grateful that he hadn't haggled with Luochen before.

Fenghua Fairy was astonished. She was certain that the strength Luochen had displayed just now was even greater than during the great battle in the Tiandu Region. Was he hiding his power, or had he made such rapid progress in a short time?

Divine Flame Master and Motian Laogui exchanged glances, silently nodding in agreement.

It was that peculiar flame again!

Numerous gazes filled with varying meanings fell upon Luochen.

But when they all focused on him, it was as if countless stars were surrounding the moon, making his tall and sturdy figure appear even more imposing.

With this boost in momentum, the words Luochen spoke next carried significant weight.

"Now, your sect can give us an explanation!"

Thunder Daoist slowly retracted his hand, examining Luochen with interest, seemingly surprised.

Oddly, he seemed less concerned about this question than before.

"This battle has dragged on for too long. If the Abyss Holy Land takes action, it will be to quell the demon turmoil. Instead of prolonging it, it's better to finish it in one go. That Ghost of Chang is the perfect bait."

Luochen's eyebrows furrowed, "Are you sure the demonic race will launch a full-scale attack?"

Thunder Daoist smiled confidently, "This Ghost of Chang carries that much weight! Its original body was a variant of the ancient beast, the Devouring Essence Beast, born to devour the essence of heaven and earth. It particularly craves the Dao Fruit of cultivators and even feeds on it. During the Ancient Demon Emperor Tian's Heavenly Transformation Thunder Tribulation, it attempted to launch a sneak attack but was instead destroyed, becoming a Ghost of Chang.

For many years, Ancient Demon Emperor Tian had been searching for a way to nurture this ghost. Eventually, he found a method—by devouring the Yuanying of human cultivators, it could advance. Once this demon breaks through to the Huashen Realm, Emperor Tian will have a Ghost of Chang at the Huashen level.

He couldn't resist the temptation, so even during the human-demon war, when there was an unspoken rule that Huashen cultivators should not intervene, he secretly sent out his Ghost of Chang to ambush us Yuanying cultivators."

This revelation left everyone speechless.

In the current era, ancient beasts were already in decline, and those that remained were mostly in the wilderness.

Now, a Ghost of Chang with an ancient beast variant as its original body had appeared?

Moreover, it was born to devour the essence of heaven and earth and even feed on the Dao Fruit of cultivators?

What was the Dao Fruit of cultivators?

The foundation of Dao cultivation, the Great Dao Golden Core, the Three Treasures Yuanying, and even the Yuanshen could all be considered the culmination of a cultivator's Dao Fruit.

In other words, the Devouring Essence Beast was inherently hostile to cultivators!

"According to my research, after becoming a Ghost of Chang, it lost its physical body and suffered a significant loss of vitality. But now, it has already recovered to the late Yuanying stage, just one step away from the Huashen Realm."

Thunder Daoist spoke with confidence, providing a detailed explanation for everyone.

Then, he waved his hand.

"Therefore, Ancient Demon Emperor Tian will never give up the Ghost of Chang he has nurtured for hundreds of years. Even if it means rallying the entire demonic race of the Eastern Wilderness, he will undoubtedly try to retrieve it!"

"And this is the opportunity for the final battle!"

"Everyone, do you understand what I'm saying?"

No one spoke, each digesting the astonishing news they had received in a short time.

No wonder Heaven Ascending Pass had been heavily guarded recently!

No wonder the Abyss Sect had sent a large number of cultivators into the city, increasing the Yuanying cultivators from the initial dozen to thirty. Even the Great Cultivators, including the Ling Tian City Lord, had reached a total of six!

So, they had been preparing for the final battle!

A loud knock on the table sounded.

Everyone turned to the source of the sound, and it was none other than Danzong Luochen.

Everyone suddenly realized that it was fortunate that Danzong had taken the lead in organizing this gathering, forcing the Abyss Sect to provide an explanation.

Otherwise, when the time came and they suddenly faced the decisive battle between the two races, they might not be mentally prepared, and they could suffer heavy losses.

Luo Chen looked straight into Thunder Daoist's eyes and slowly spoke, "If the Ghost of Chang is so important that it might even force the Eastern Wilderness Demonic Race to fight with all their might, what if they can't take Heaven Ascending Pass? Would the Ancient Demon Emperor Tian, who is at the forefront, no longer abide by the unspoken rule of not interfering with the Essence Transformation Powerhouses and personally deal with us? In that case, how would your sect handle the aftermath?"

He had asked the question that everyone was most concerned about.

Facing the tense faces, Thunder Daoist burst into laughter.

Suddenly, the laughter stopped.

"Simple, my Abyss Sect's Powerhouse will personally deal with him!"

"Fellow cultivators, I've said all I can. Prepare well for the upcoming battle!"

After speaking, Thunder Daoist left with a swagger, no longer paying attention to the delighted cultivators in the hall.

After he left, the hall buzzed with intense discussions about this matter.

Gradually, everyone's attention focused on Luo Chen, who had spoken up for them earlier.

"Danzong, what do you think we should do?"

Facing the anxious faces, Luo Chen sighed.

"Just as Thunder Daoist said, this war, like a quagmire, has dragged on for far too long. It would be best to resolve it quickly."

"Before that decisive battle, we should prepare as much as possible."

"We shouldn't waste this discussion. Fellow cultivators, if you have any unnecessary resources, feel free to trade them to enhance each other's strength."

Everyone nodded in agreement, saying that Danzong's words were very reasonable.

Although they feared the upcoming battle, in their hearts, they also anticipated the fight.

Because it had been dragging on for far too long!

Even though only a mere hundred years had passed in reality, the pressure of living on the edge, with the constant threat of impending doom, still made it hard to breathe.

Only by truly ending this war could everyone and every force find relief.

Divine Flame Master sat in the corner, watching Luo Chen speak with confidence, and a hint of fear appeared in his eyes.

When did this guy become so authoritative, giving orders from above and having his words accepted by everyone?

Had his prestige grown to such heights?

...

City Lord's Mansion!

The Lingtian Lord looked at Thunder Daoist, who had just returned, and asked directly, "Did you tell them everything?"

"Yes, this was something that Senior Brother should have announced. This time, Junior Brother overstepped his bounds," Thunder Daoist replied with a smile.

The Lingtian Lord shook his head, "There's no overstepping, it's just a matter of timing. I heard that you had a conflict with Luo Chen?"

"It wasn't a conflict, just a test of skills," Thunder Daoist waved his hand, then suddenly showed interest, "If I hadn't tested him, I wouldn't have discovered that this person hides his true abilities. He is indeed worthy of our Abyss Sect's attention!"

The Lingtian Lord smiled, "After all, he stirred up the Heavenly Origin Dao Sect's Five-Century Grand Competition, and upon returning to the Eastern Wilderness, he consecutively earned the titles of Danzong and Demon-Slaying True Immortal. How could he be one who gained fame without substance?"

However!

"No!"

Thunder Daoist shook his head, his expression turning solemn as he said, "When I say he hides his true abilities, I mean he might have already comprehended the Principle True Meaning!"

The Lingtian Lord was stunned.

Thunder Daoist paced in the courtyard, muttering to himself.

"Chongming Shidi received the order and went to Zhongzhou to observe Chu Yan's Ascension Ceremony."

"Chu Yan didn't forget the old friendship and gave Chongming Shidi a Heavenly Clue Pill. According to him, there were a total of five Heavenly Clue Pills, three of which remained in the Heavenly Origin Dao Sect, and the last one was given to Luo Chen, who was still known as the Daoist title 'Scattered Immortal' at the time."

"The Old Ancestor specifically instructed that after the great battle, Luo Chen should be brought to the Abyss Sect, initially because of that Heavenly Clue Pill. Later, he was attracted by Luo Chen's pill refining techniques, hoping that Luo Chen could replace Chu Yan and become our Abyss Sect's new generation Pill Saint."

"But now it seems that Luo Chen might have already consumed the Heavenly Clue Pill and comprehended the Principle True Meaning. Otherwise, with only the mid-stage Primordial Spirit realm, he wouldn't have been able to withstand my attack!"

The Lingtian Lord swallowed, his eyes showing a mix of disbelief and admiration.

In his mind, he couldn't help but recall the scene when Luo Chen first appeared.

With just one move, he had refined Motian Laogui's true artifact, Sky Piercing Cliff.

"Shidi, you might be mistaken. It's true that Luochen possesses an extremely powerful Primordial True Flame."

Thunder Daoist was taken aback and said in disbelief, "The Principle True Meaning I've comprehended is the most domineering in the world. What kind of True Flame can withstand it? The Fifth Stage Divine Flame? Haha, Luochen is merely a Nascent Soul Cultivator. How could he possibly master the Fifth Stage Divine Flame?"

Thunder Daoist remained firm in his belief that Luochen had comprehended some extraordinary Principle True Meaning.

Seeing that he couldn't convince Lingtian Lord, he didn't press further and simply said, "You don't understand," ending the topic.

The words "You don't understand" caused Lingtian Lord's expression to darken.

Thunder Daoist paid no heed to his senior brother's mood and instead brought up another topic.

"Luochen's reputation in the Eastern Wilderness seems a bit too high!"

Lingtian Lord casually agreed, "His reputation has always been good, and he has many connections. It's only natural for his prestige to be high."

"No!" Thunder Daoist frowned. "It's too high. Today, all cultivators look up to him, including some who don't have a good relationship with him. If this continues, I'm afraid we won't be able to forcefully bring him back to the Abyss Sect."

Lingtian Lord showed a look of surprise.

During today's Shouyang Debate, he wasn't present, and the information he received was second-hand, so it wasn't comprehensive.

For Shidi to be so solemn, it seemed that something unexpected had indeed happened!

...

The Shouyang Debate didn't last as long as it had in the past.

It ended abruptly after just one day and night.

After all, the current situation was that the entire city was on high alert, guarding against a full-scale attack from the Demonic Race.

But everyone who attended returned satisfied.

Whether it was inside information or trading resources, everyone gained something.

In this regard, Luochen was undoubtedly the most dazzling one.

This was evident from the time of the meeting's conclusion, as almost everyone bid him farewell.

Luochen attended the debate with Gu Caiyi and Wang Yuan.

They had been interacting with others outside, and it was only at the end of the meeting that they noticed this anomaly.

"Husband, why do I feel that those Nascent Soul Immortals highly respect you?"

Luochen rode on Fa Yun, carrying the two of them towards Dan Luo Mountain.

He calmly asked, "Hasn't it always been like this?"

Gu Caiyi shook her head, "It's a bit different from usual. Brother Wang, don't you think so?"

Wang Yuan hummed in agreement; he had also noticed the difference.

Previously, those Nascent Soul Immortals might have respected Luochen, but it was often only superficial.

Unlike before, they now showed genuine respect.

In response, Luochen's lips curved slightly, but he didn't explain too much.

He had finally reached this step!

After returning to the Eastern Wilderness, he had made many connections with his pill concocting abilities.

In the successive great battles, he killed countless demons, and his strength was recognized by others.

If this continued, it would be nothing more than others trying to please him, not genuine respect, and certainly not enough to make him their leader.

But after several battles, the situation among the Eastern Wilderness powerhouses changed.

A large number of cultivators at the same cultivation level as him either perished or were injured.

Those with higher cultivation levels, like the Divine Essence Immortals, didn't involve themselves in worldly affairs and only appeared during battles.

Heavenly Capital Master was once highly revered and had spoken up for various sects and factions, implicitly bearing the responsibility of representing the major forces in negotiations with the Abyss Sect.

However, after the Heavenly Capital Sect suffered a heavy blow and the Heaven Ascending Pass Grand Formation was destroyed, his personal prestige and reputation declined uncontrollably.

Aside from the Great Cultivators of the Abyss Sect, there was another Great Cultivator in the Eastern Wilderness, the Supreme True Monarch of Dongyang Sect.

But this person not only didn't leave the Dongyang Sect, but even if he did, he would definitely stand on the side of the Abyss Sect.

In this situation, no one dared to take the lead! Even Deng Taiyue, a Sixth Layer Nascent Soul, or Jiu Ling Yanyun, who was said to be comparable to a Great Cultivator, lacked personal prestige.

Luochen seized this opportunity and, under the name of the Pill Sect, stood up for everyone, using the support of the masses to pressure the Abyss Sect.

Moreover, he used the power of the Growth and Withering Divine Flame to directly counter Thunder Daoist's attack.

Thus, his reputation and strength combined, along with his style of conduct, subtly replaced the Heavenly Capital Master, becoming the most prestigious person in Heaven Ascending Pass, aside from the cultivators of the Abyss Sect.

This was what the Heavenly Capital Master once had and what the Shouyang Mountain Man once yearned for, and now it rested on Luochen's shoulders.

Most importantly, through yesterday's debate, he had glimpsed the Abyss Sect's attitude towards him.

Tolerance, and even indulgence.

Subtly, the intention to draw him in had never ceased!

After ordering Gu and Wang to leave, Luochen stood alone on the mountain peak, his smile gradually fading.

"With such a friendly gesture, I'm afraid I won't be able to return to the Heavenly Peak."
