Chapter 770: Chapter 454 Great Compassion of the Supreme Heavenly Venerate of All Heavens and Myriads of Worlds_2

Had it been before, he would not have been able to severely wound the Late-stage Nascent Soul Ape King with a single strike from the Thousand Flame Tripod.

Boom! Boom!

The Thousand Flame Tripod, fast as a meteor, driving round after round of fierce sun, smashed repeatedly onto the body of the Silver-Backed Ape.

This powerful Great Demon, used to rampaging, had occupied the Divine Tree for centuries. Over these years, all enemies who coveted the Divine Tree were brutally crushed by it.

Yet now, facing an enemy more powerful than any it had ever encountered before, the Ape King, despite being at a disadvantage, still failed to adapt. Its fury completely consumed its rationale, and it recklessly continued to withstand attacks from the Thousand Flame Tripod, frantically chasing the detestable enemy.

Zhao Sheng always favored such stubborn opponents. Even the most powerful among them would eventually perish at the hands of another.

Thirty minutes later, the body of the Ape King was broken and battered, breathless as an ox as it collapsed into a 20-foot deep pit. Yet, it still struggled to rise.

At that moment, a jade-like small sword appeared out of nowhere, circling the head of the ape like lightning.

The head of the ape swayed, and with a thud, it rolled off, its eyes still red as blood, seemingly unaware that it was no longer in its original place.

Blood spurted like a fountain from the neck of the headless demon corpse, quickly covering a large area and submerging half of the demon corpse in blood.

A thick scent of blood quickly spread over a hundred miles, frightening countless demon beasts into frantically fleeing the area.

Zhao Sheng’s expression remained unchanged. With a single motion of his hand, he retrieved the Thousand Flame Tripod. At this moment, he had a clear understanding of his own power.

Pop!

The Thousand Flame Tripod spun slightly and a vast expanse of Chaotic Gray Light appeared out of nowhere.

At that moment, the Chaotic Gray Light suddenly condensed into a massive dusky sword, maintaining its form for one breath before thunderously collapsing and vanishing.

Seeing this scene, a smile emerged on Zhao Sheng’s face.

After confirming his preliminary control over the Annihilation Gray Light, Zhao Sheng stored the Thousand Flame Tripod back into his Qi Sea, glanced at the body of the Ape King on the ground, seemingly thought of something, furrowed his brows, and in a flash, he was beside the corpse.

Although he had slain the Great Demon, he had not killed its Demon Soul. Yet, he could not sense its Divine Soul in the body of the Great Demon.

Zhao Sheng was just about to examine it.

Suddenly, a cluster of white light burst out of the Ape King’s skull, then condensed into a fist-sized white Light Ball.

“What is this?” Zhao Sheng’s gaze landed on the white Light Ball, his eyes flickering with Divine Light.

Just as his gaze fell on the Light Ball, as if sensing something, it transformed into a beam of white light and shot into his body.

Zhao Sheng’s expression changed, and the magic power mysterious light within him surged mightily, while a Divine Thought Storm suddenly swept across both the inside and outside of his body.

However, the white Light Ball, ignoring all defenses, easily penetrated the layers of protection and flew into his Dantian Qi Sea. It then collapsed, turning into a vast expanse of white light and merging into every corner of his body.

Zhao Sheng’s expression froze, for a time unable to comprehend, but then streams of extremely pure energy surged continuously from the depths of his limbs. The majority of this energy transformed into mana flowing back into his Dantian, while a little remainder transformed into streams of spiritual power, voluntarily merging into his Divine Thought.

In just a moment, Zhao Sheng’s mana and Divine Thought surged substantially, his cultivation truly reaching the peak of the Sixth Layer, and he even felt he was just one breath away from breaking through the Seventh Realm.

This left him both shocked and delighted, but instinctively a bit uneasy as well.

Zhao Sheng still did not know what kind of existence this realm really was.

Is it real? Or fake? Or… unknown?

Having just slaughtered a Great Demon, to have fortuitously gained such a great benefit, could this be normal?

Zhao Sheng checked his Divine Soul and flesh repeatedly, and did not notice anything amiss.

After pondering for a long time, he remained clueless.

Therefore, he temporarily made note of this event in his heart, waved his hand to collect the demon corpse, then stored it in his Storage Space Seal, and continued to gather Spirit Liquid.

Time slowly passed, and one by one, the three Great Suns in the sky extinguished.

Night gradually fell, yet not a single star twinkled in the sky. The entire Heavenly Curtain was covered in a dusky haze, but it shed a faint and gentle Radiance, subtly illuminating the land below.

Zhao Sheng took in this celestial anomaly, immediately conjuring countless speculations!

There was no doubt this world was not a normal natural realm.

If it were a normal world, the sun should rise and set, not suddenly extinguish.

As the last sun extinguished, whispers suddenly transmitted through heaven and earth.

At first, the voices were barely audible, but they quickly became clear and grew louder over time, eventually resonating through heaven and earth.

At that moment, roars and cries of beasts suddenly erupted from the dense forests around, loud and excited, rhythmic as if echoing the clear sounds of the universe.

Zhao Sheng listened carefully and realized that these sounds were actually the chanting of scriptures, as if countless beings were simultaneously reciting some sacred text, with a solemn and respectful tone, full of fervor and devotion!

Even if Zhao Sheng tried every possible means, he could not block out these sounds.

Later, the chanting entered his ears, penetrated his mind, and continually echoed above the Soul Sea.

At first, he couldn’t understand the content of the scriptures, but as the chant entered his soul, Zhao Sheng eerily came to understand it.

“…Supreme Heavenly Venerate of all heavens and myriads of worlds, merciful and compassionate, dealing with karma and causation throughout the universe. At that time, Supreme Taoist Ancestor was in Blessings Heaven within the World of Blessed Incense, sitting upon the Bright Eight Treasure Platform, speaking profoundly… If you can now make such a vow, foster great kindness, and benefit all inconceivable beings. Following this causation, he shall emit a nine-colored radiance, illuminating billions of worlds across the heavens, right down to below… Seeing Great Saints and true immortals, countless beings, all seeking Perfect cultivation, gaining great freedom…”

Zhao Sheng sat cross-legged under a tree, his body aglow as he shot upwards, his Nascent Soul entrenched deep in the Soul Sea, tightly pressed against the Hundred Lifetimes scripture, desperately resisting the waves of Sacred Sounds, barely maintaining his own consciousness from being assimilated.

The night was long, yet it passed unconsciously.

When the suns reappeared high in the sky, Zhao Sheng finally broke free from the influence of the Sacred Sound, struggling to his feet in a sweat-soaked effort.

After experiencing such an unbelievable night, he no longer cared about collecting spiritual water, immediately transforming into Mystic Light, he soared into the sky, racing toward the horizon…

In pursuit of discovering the true face of this world, Zhao Sheng flew against the Great Sun, rushing up into the heavenly vault.

He flew higher and higher, eventually passing several hundred miles of Heavenly Gang Atmosphere, nearly reaching the end of heaven and earth, with the Boundary Membrane right before his eyes.

At this moment, above Zhao Sheng, all was dark void, but the three Great Suns were still high above.

However, when he tried to cross the Boundary Membrane, the scene before Zhao Sheng blurred, and unexpectedly, without any warning, he found himself back on the ground, surrounded by towering ancient trees and thick miasma.

“What just happened?” Zhao Sheng was incredibly shocked, looking up at the sky, through the patchy gaps, he saw the glaring sun.

For the next half day, he tried three times to fly beyond the boundary, but each time the outcome was exactly the same.

What was different, though, each time he landed in a different location.

On the third landing, he found himself amidst a group of Golden Core demon beasts, all wild by nature, and as soon as they saw Zhao Sheng, they recklessly began a frenzied attack.

With no other choice, Zhao Sheng had to slay them one by one.

Upon their death, they likewise produced spheres of white light of various sizes.

Zhao Sheng, being cautious, did not want to rashly absorb an unknown power.

However, regardless of how he tried to evade, the white light spheres entered his body, transforming into Mana and spiritual power, greatly hastening his increase in strength.

Zhao Sheng’s cultivation advanced rapidly, the barriers of the Nascent Soul Seventh Layer becoming increasingly loose, about to easily break through this realm.

The next day, a streak of light hurriedly swept across mountains, flying toward the horizon.

About three to four miles behind the streak of light, seven or eight purple-haired Demon Apes with wings on their backs were fiercely chasing him, each emitting a strong aura of the Nascent Soul Realm.

After thirty minutes, Zhao Sheng, being chased from sky to ground, couldn’t help but curse out loud, “Damn it, a bunch of brainless beasts, if you want to die, come on, I’ll send you to Blessings Heaven!”

Despite his cursing, he did not stop his swift flight forward.

Zhao Sheng had begun to realize that in this world, he was an absolute outcast; every demon beast he encountered along the way madly rushed to their deaths upon seeing him.

Although he couldn’t understand the reason, he soon changed his approach, opting to stop and not kill any more demon beasts.

Even so, by then, Zhao Sheng’s cultivation had already smoothly ascended to the Nascent Soul Seventh Layer, even once again nearing the peak of the Seventh Realm.

A moment later, Zhao Sheng had a thought, but unsurprisingly, Phase Shifting failed to activate!

Seeing no escape,
