500,000 Years Time
***
In the vast desert, two groups of burly men with beast skins faced each other, their swords drawn.
Both sides had leaders standing at the front. They were both burly figures over 30 feet tall. Their exposed skin was even tattooed with a tattoo like a wild beast, and they looked extremely ferocious.
The one-sided leader wore animal skin clothing that looked like a white wolf. His arms were tattooed with a black bear pattern. He stared at the other side with a ferocious look and said in a low voice, “Wu Cheng! The bodies of this Ganas Origin Rhino and Green Hairy Lightning Eagle were found by our Dahuo Tribe. They should be ours!”
The person he called Wu Cheng was the leader before him. He wore an animal skin outfit that looked like tiger skin and had a blood red bull head tattoo on his chest.
"Liang You, what nonsense are you talking about?" Wu Cheng moved his hand and sneered. “Clearly it was the boys from our Linshan Tribe who found it the first time. Do you want to fight me?
“Good, I'll fight. Do you think I'm afraid of you ?!" Liang You was furious. He stepped forward and tore off his leather clothes, revealing his upper body.
At the same time, the tattoos of the three white wolves on his arms and chest shone brightly, as if boundless strength was augmenting his body, causing the strength of his aura to rapidly increase.
"Good! I haven't liked you in a long time. You seek death!” Wu Cheng laughed out loud. He spread out his hands, and the beast skin clothes on his upper body instantly ripped apart, revealing the three blood-red bull heads on his chest and arms. "ah! Coming!"
With a roar, the shadow of three red bull heads flew out from his body as if revived, condensing into three blood-red bull heads beside him.
As the cow-headed shadow solidified, Wu Cheng became like an attacking bull as he suddenly rushed towards Liang You, who was still increasing the strength of his aura.
In an instant, Wu Cheng had already arrived in front of Liang You.
He stretched out his hand and put his hand forward. His five fingers pressed together like two bull horns as he slammed them into Liang You's chest. He roared, "Lay down!"
"Dam!!" Liang You suddenly shouted, and his entire body emitted a powerful white light. His body seemed to have turned into a strong wind as he quickly retreated, instantly widening the distance between him and Wu Cheng.
Around him, the shadows of three white wolves wrapped around him, constantly giving him strength, allowing him to turn into strong winds and stir up a storm.
“So, you have also reached the stage of manifesting the Shaman Sign. It's worth it that you have the guts to fight with me for a corpse.” Wu Cheng looked at Liang You with a hostile expression, but he did not continue attacking.
“You only used me because you were born three years earlier than me and have the Blood Fire Ox treasure blood to wash your marrow.” Liang You looked at Wu Cheng with disdain, his eyes filled with ridicule. "I'm different. I gained all my strength through fierce fighting!
“Without the help of the blood treasure to clear the marrow, even if your Shaman Mark appears, it is just an empty shell!” Wu Cheng snorted coldly. The aura on his body surged again, and the shadow of the blood-colored bull head became brighter. "I'll let you see what the true powers of the Shaman Markers are! Come on, trash who only knows how to rely on the power of treasure blood!"
Liang You did not show any weakness, but his expression was extremely wary. Clearly, he was still very afraid of Wu Cheng.
It's thundering!
A loud noise came from the ground. The blood-colored light intertwined with the strong wind, causing sand and rocks to fly about, turning the surroundings dark.
However, this level of battle was not enough to affect Cui Heng and the others flying through the air.
At this moment, be it Cui Heng, Pei Qingshu, Zheng Nanxun, Hui Shi, or the Yellow-robed Strong Man, they were all observing the battle between Wu Cheng and Liang Pomelo below, it was as if they were seeing something new.
“Master, they don't seem to be martial artists. Their cultivation path was completely different from Martial Dao, ” Pei Qingshu said in surprise. “Their strength actually comes from tattoos on their bodies. Just with this tattoo, they had strength comparable to a Sage.”
“But their fighting techniques are very rough.” Zheng Nanxun stared down and frowned slightly. “Virtually no technique. They fully relied on the power of their tattoos to fight head-on. Even a Sage who had taken the Immortal True Essence could defeat the two of them alone.”
At this point, he stopped and looked at Cui Heng beside him. He asked, “Grandmaster Ancestor, that shouldn't be true. How could the people in the Heaven Realm be so weak?”
"Could anything have happened in the last 500,000 years?" Hui Shi also looked at the two of them and said in a low voice, "The Heaven Realm that Wu Yong mentioned is not like this."
Wu Yong was a person from the Heaven Realm who had once been sealed by a Heaven Realm expert. He had the cultivation of the Second Heaven Gate realm and knew a lot about the Heaven Realm. He once told Cui Heng about the situation in the Heaven Realm.
According to him, although there were no very clear rules in the Heaven Realm, nor was there a clear concept of a country, it was ruled by various Heavenly Venerable. It was definitely not a desolate land.
The cultivation method of the Heaven Realm was also the 21 Eternal and Mortal Realms and the 12 Heaven Gate Realms. It was not this strange path that relied on tattoos to increase one's strength.
As the Heaven Sovereign who had existed since the Heaven Realm was still around, Daoist Fang He and Monk Yuan Ku had also described the Heaven Realm that they knew of. Similarly, there was no strange cultivation method.
These words immediately attracted everyone's attention and they looked towards the Yellow-robed Strong Man.
"Yes, Eternal Majesty." The Yellow-robed Strong Man nodded and said, “Their bodies seem to have been modified by various methods. They no longer had a pure human body. There are many inhuman characteristics and inhuman strength.”
“This is a little similar to my situation. I was originally a Dao Guard and my body was modified and formed with various talismans and Dao patterns. My strength comes from this and I rely on the enhancement of my talisman and Dao patterns to become stronger.”
“Then ...” Pei Qingshu looked at the two people fighting below and frowned. If this path continued to be developed, wouldn't it be possible to grow a Guard Body?
"That's possible." Cui Heng slightly nodded and smiled. “However, growing a Guard Body might not be a lower path compared to the 21 realms of the Eternal and Mortal worlds. Think carefully. What did you develop to the end in the Nine Realms of the Eternal World?”
“...” Pei Qingshu was stunned upon hearing this. Then, he smiled bitterly and said, “Indeed, the cultivation methods of the 21 Eternal and Mortal realm are also full of traps. If we get lost, we might even purify ourselves into material for the cultivation of others.”
Not only were there holes everywhere in the lower realms, but they were also the same in the upper realms. The two peak realms of the Nine Realms of the Eternal World were actually extensions of the laws of the Heavenly Domain.
The best among them were the servants of the Heavenly Domain. Although they had obtained greater strength, they were also restricted by the rules of the Heavenly Region.
Only by breaking through the Gates of Heaven and gaining new power characteristics would they be able to escape this boundary.
“In addition, from the Eighth and Ninth Realms of the Eternal World, they clearly had to rely on the rules of the Heavenly Domain.” Cui Heng stood with his hands behind his back and said nonchalantly, "After the Door of Heaven is closed, the Upper World and the Underworld are separated."
“There are no Heavenly Domain rules here, so it is naturally impossible to reach Fusion realm, let alone Ascension. They have to take another path. If I'm not mistaken, if those Heaven's Gate experts are still around, they are most likely looking for another cultivation path right now."
After all, in the previous 500,000 years, the Gates of Heaven could not be felt at all. If a Heaven's Gate expert wanted to improve further, they could only find another way.
Thinking of this, Cui Heng said in a low voice, “Time is indeed a great power that can drown everything. After 500,000 years, the current Heaven Realm had become quite different. The information we know about the Heaven Realm may not be very useful anymore.”
Moreover, on the surface, the living things here did not seem to be corroded by the Outer World. Even the Great Dao laws were extremely pure and there were no signs of contamination. It's really a little weird.”
As soon as he arrived, he felt many unknown and doubtful things. This made him feel worried.
When the four people present heard Cui Heng's words, their expressions became solemn. These signs indicate that the current situation in the Heaven Realm may not be normal.
"No matter what, let's start with these people." Cui Heng changed the topic and said to Pei Qingshu, “Qingshu, the two are still fighting. Go and help them.”
"Yes sir!" Pei Qingshu cupped his hands and bowed. Then, his figure quickly descended.
Bang out! Bang out! Bang out! There was a burst of explosions in the void. Wu Cheng and Liang Pomelo were locked in battle. Their loud cries were endless. The people from his respective tribe were also waving flags and shouting, as if very excited.
The explosion!
At this moment, an earth-shattering explosion suddenly came from a short distance away. The ground shook violently, and an enormous aura suddenly descended from the sky.
The two people who were fighting instantly stopped and looked towards the voice in surprise. Then, their eyes glazed over and subconsciously they took a few steps back.
What descended from the sky was actually a thousand feet tall giant. His entire body was enveloped in layers of golden light. His face was blurry and extremely holy, as if a legendary god had descended.
Pei Qingshu mainly cultivated his body. He instantly manifested the Heavenly Dharma Dao Body and immediately startled the two of them.
“What a mysterious golden light. Is that a god ?! wu Cheng said in disbelief.
"Impossible. How could a god descend into this desolate land ?! ” Liang You shook his head repeatedly and said, “But he is indeed very strong.”.
Pei Qingshu ignored their shock. He raised his hand and grabbed the corpses of the three large beasts.
At the same time, he looked at Wu Cheng and Liang You, his gaze like lightning.
This enormous aura and pressure made Wu Cheng and Liang You not dare to move at all. They could only stand there like puppets.
Immediately after, a voice that was like the power of the sky descended.
“These three great beasts were originally raised by my family. A few days ago, they went alone. I don't expect them to die here. Did you two do it?!”
