Two Worlds: Demonic Cultivator with His Zombie Materials

Chapter 507 - 257: The Nascent Soul as Destiny, Sumeru Divine Palace

Or rather, it stems from Zheng Yi’s powerful Core Formation Stage Divine Soul’s perceptive ability.

Precisely because his Divine Soul is exceedingly powerful, it can still be suddenly influenced by this mysterious aura, subjected to intense pressure and intimidation.

Conversely, if it were an ordinary Foundation Establishment Cultivator, or even a Purple Mansion Cultivator, they would only feel some unease for a moment, without understanding where this pressure comes from, and would not be greatly affected.

As for the other creatures living throughout the Sumeru Forest Cave Heaven, such as ants, birds, and small beasts, they are entirely oblivious and unaware, incapable of sensing any anomaly.

In other words, the stronger the power, the higher the degree of spirit, the greater the intensity of the Divine Soul, the more sensitive, they would be affected by the sudden surge of aura pressure.

At that moment, Zheng Yi felt as if he were suffocating, with endless pressure surging from all directions, compressing his Divine Soul.

Fortunately, this aura was not directed solely at Zheng Yi, but enveloped the entire space, with boundless pressure gathering in this world like tides.

That terrifying presence seemed to grasp this space with a mighty hand, making Heaven and Earth tremble in awe.

...

It was as if a moment simultaneously felt like a century, time at this moment becoming an unimaginable concept.

Zheng Yi only felt that this space was shrouded by terrifying pressure, suffocating with despair, even the surging waves of the Yellow Springs River seemed to pause there.

Boom!

Suddenly, the space shook, and the aura that seemed to freeze everything finally dissipated, Zheng Yi reached up and touched his neck, his expression solemn as he opened his mouth wide, taking deep breaths.

In that instant just now, the overwhelming pressure was indeed suffocating, and as it eased, he realized that even the act of breathing was an exceedingly fortunate thing.

"Nascent Soul power!?"

"Truly vast and boundless, unimaginably powerful..."

Bright flashes flickered in Zheng Yi’s eyes, his gaze luminous like a bright moon, gazing upwards as if to pierce through the thick rock layers to find where the terrifying aura suddenly originated.

"Within this Sumeru Forest Cave Heaven, does there still exist Nascent Soul-level power?"

"Or, is it that the Taiyin Profound Celestial Sect or the Righteous Core Formation Sect Alliance have deployed some ancestral Nascent Soul trump cards and methods..."

The sensation was truly terrifying, as if directly facing a genuine Great Power of the Nascent Soul Stage.

When Zheng Yi came back to his senses, he felt a chill all over his back, unexpectedly soaked in cold sweat in that instant just now.

...

In fact, that terrifying aura that suddenly descended indeed belonged to the might of the Nascent Soul, a power equivalent to a Nascent Soul Cultivator’s full eruption from a higher plane above the Secret Realm suddenly exploded out.

Whether it was the Taiyin Profound Celestial Sect, the Little Five Elements Sword Sect, or the Brahma Heaven Temple among other Righteous Core Formation Powers, they were determined to contest for the Nascent Soul Gathering Pill, a movement affecting the entire body, the competition had already reached the most intense, white-hot stage.

Even deploying sect trump cards.

Belonging to those genuine powers left behind by Nascent Soul existences.

Though the Great Yi City Immortal Realm has fallen into decline, yet how many ancestors did without extravagance, among those Core Formation Sects passed down through the ages, which of them don’t have one or two ancestral good things in their hands?

But these things are used once and depleted once.

Normally regarded as strategic resources, genuine deterrence powers, they are hardly moved.

But now, tempted by the Nascent Soul Gathering Pill, all Core Formation Cultivators have gone mad.

A Core Formation Stage Cultivator has a lifespan of about five hundred years.

But a Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator enjoys a lifespan of three thousand years.

To ascend in a single step, dominating Great Yi City.

If the Late Stage Core Formation old monster of the Taiyin Profound Celestial Sect obtains the Nascent Soul Gathering Pill, it’s very possible to break the Core and form the Nascent Soul, by then, dominating the entire continent, all White Dao Alliances will cease to exist.

Similarly, even though the Taiyin Profound Celestial Sect is the longest-standing Demon Dao sect, yet as long as the White Dao gives rise to a Nascent Soul, then the Taiyin Profound Celestial Sect is just a chicken and dog, extinguishable in an instant.

Even for strategic security, they must contend, must seize.

And the existence of the Sumeru Forest Cave Heaven in this world has long endured through the ages, the last time someone luckily obtained the Nascent Soul Gathering Pill, there are records of legends, allegedly still a thousand years ago.

Regrettably, that person eventually failed to condense the Nascent Soul, wasting the opportunity for Nascent Soul Formation.

And the opening of the Cave Heaven requires countless outside cultivators to blood sacrifice here, only every special period can there be an opportunity to open the Sumeru Palace atop the Sumeru Forest Cave Heaven, creating a chance to obtain the Nascent Soul Gathering Pill.

No one will forfeit this occasion.

And for those Late Stage Core Formation old monsters who’ve reached the limit of their lifespan, this could also be their final opportunity in lifetime.

Thus, even putting their lives on the line, exhausting all foundations, they still want to make a gamble.

Indeed, just as Zheng Yi previously surmised, Core Formation Cultivators were not entirely devoid of the opportunity to come to the Sumeru Forest Cave Heaven.

It’s just restricted by the rules of the entire Cave Heaven, unwelcoming of power beyond Core Formation, else if Core Formation Realm Cultivators all entered together, should war break out, it would inflict considerable destruction upon this Sumeru Forest Cave Heaven.

But with time passing, no matter how perfect the rules, they will inevitably develop flaws under the test of time.

Therefore, in later explorations, both the Taiyin Profound Celestial Sect and the Righteous Core Formation Sect discovered tricks.
