Chapter 740: 739 Evil Spirit Saint

“This Divine Tree is indeed the World Tree that nurtures worlds. However, if it continues to grow like this, in a few million years, those beings will notice it.”

The Ancient Emperor said.

She was referring to the “Great Terror.”

“Let them come.”

Qin Changqing said indifferently.

By now, he had become a Saint, and the Ancient Emperor had also become a Saint.

The Flower Celestial Master had also become his woman.

In this way, just within Qin Changqing’s own family, there were already three Saints.

In his household, there were several more Quasi-Saints.

The number of Great Luos was also increasing.

The number of Saints born to the Qin family would continue to grow.

Even if there were “Great Terrors” at the level of an Immortal Emperor, Qin Changqing, in cooperation with the Ancient Emperor, could still fight.

The World Tree was still significant; after becoming a Saint, Qin Changqing’s gaze had already turned to the entire Chaos Sea.

Although worlds were constantly being born within the Chaos Sea, this particular World Tree was specially nurturing worlds.

Once it grew, the worlds that it nurtured inside, who knows how extensive they would be.

According to the Ancient Emperor, at its peak, each leaf on this tree contained a world.

Just think, how many leaves does this tree have?

How many worlds will there be upon it?

And in Qin Changqing’s view, to seek true eternity and to bring prosperity to the entire Chaos Sea is also an important step.

The Ancient Emperor had similar speculations.

Therefore, Qin Changqing also took special care of this World Tree.

After becoming a Saint, the Ancient Emperor had decided to stay here for a while.

Qin Changqing had not stayed too long after bringing the Ancient Emperor here.

Because he had received news that the mind of the Supreme Clear Dao Master was seeking him out.

Thus, Qin Changqing returned to the Immortal World.

After returning to the Immortal World, Qin Changqing met with the thought-form of the Supreme Clear Dao Master.

This time… he had actually come to seek help!

In that Ancient Ruin, the “Great Terror” was too ferocious; the Saints had spent so many years and yet were still unable to subdue it!

Due to Qin Changqing’s strong performance in the past, many Saints wanted to ask Qin Changqing to offer support.

“Ancient Ruins!”

Thousands of years later, in an extremely mysterious and dangerous place far away from the Immortal World, Qin Changqing murmured.

This hazardous place had some peculiarities and had once given birth to countless powerhouses.

It was a relic from the time immemorial.

The age of antiquity referred to an infinitely distant era. It had to be at least more than a hundred eras before it could be called ancient!

A hundred eras, the time span experienced, is unimaginable.

The existence of an era is often calculated based on tens of billions of years as the base number.

The current Immortal World, being in a period of vigorous development, has also existed for many billions of years.

At this moment, this relic was under a seal, where ordinary beings could not penetrate at all.

“I must find a way in.”

Qin Changqing began to look for a way to enter.

This relic had been completely sealed off, making entry no easy feat.

Moreover, there was a double seal here.

The Saints had sealed it to prevent the “Great Terror” from escaping.

Not only did they want to obtain the items within, but they also wanted to resolve the “Great Terror.”

The “Great Terror” had also sealed the area, wishing to kill the Saints.

Both parties wanted to get rid of the other.

Without the guidance of the Saints, it would have been difficult for Qin Changqing to find this place.

Qin Changqing’s hands swiftly executed several Immortal Skills.

Following his actions, a passage was opened by Qin Changqing, and then, gathering his strength, he burst in.

However.

He had only just broken through the blockade set by the Saints.

The blockade of the “Great Terror”, however, remained too difficult for Qin Changqing to breach.

Qin Changqing silently began his research.

The blockade utilized by the opposition, also an Immortal Prohibition, was an extremely ancient and unknown type.

Attempting to break through forcefully was not a rational approach.

It was an Immortal Emperor Level Immortal Prohibition after all.

However, no Immortal Prohibition, no matter how difficult, could stymie Qin Changqing.

Two thousand years later, a smile appeared on Qin Changqing’s face.

Then, with a flash, his figure appeared inside.

This ruin was astonishingly vast.

Its size was comparable to the sum of the Three Realms.

Qin Changqing had already sensed the fluctuations of battle.

He stealthily moved closer.

In the mist-enshrouded heights, one Saint after another stood like giants with their heads reaching the skies, and opposite them were some terrifying dark shadows.

The leading shadow, cloaked in an evil and decaying black mist, looked fearsome.

“Evil Ghost Dao!”

No sooner had he seen the shadow than Qin Changqing knew how troublesome it was.

This shadow was once an existence at the Immortal Emperor level, which required the Saints to join hands to barely contend with.

But its troublesome nature lay not in its former status as an Immortal Emperor.

Rather, it lay in the fact that along the path of the Evil Ghost Dao, it had also reached a pinnacle.

In short,

even without using Forbidden Origin Force, the shadow’s accomplishments in the Evil Ghost Dao…had already equaled a Saint!

That is to say, it had already become a Saint.

Only, the Dao it had mastered…was the Evil Ghost Dao!

Being one of the Three Thousand Great Daos, the Evil Ghost Dao, naturally, could also be a path to enlightenment.

In the understanding of the Ancient Emperors, the Evil Ghost Dao wasn’t originally so malevolent.

But the Evil Ghost Dao had mutated.

The mutated Evil Ghost Dao became the root of the “Great Terror”.

“The Great Terrors,” with the aid of the Evil Ghost Dao, could indefinitely cling to life in this world.

The catch was that they needed to slumber for extended periods and continuously draw upon the vitality and essence of other worlds to sustain their power and lifespan.

This was why “The Great Terrors” were even more fearsome than the Demon Immortals.

Although a demon is a demon, demons wouldn’t decimate worlds to sustain their existence like these beings would, draining entire worlds dry just to maintain their presence.

Even the Demon Saints of the Devil Immortal Realm would maintain the strength of the entire Devil Immortal Realm to make their own power grow stronger.

Upon Becoming a Saint, they would wield the laws of heaven, and their battle power would stem from two aspects.

One is their own strength.

The other is the strength of the whole world.

When a world weakens, like the Divine Spirit World, it can’t even support the existence of Saints.

In fact, what is traditionally considered a demon refers more to a particular type of power attribute, although this attribute does lead to changes in disposition and behavior.

But there is a fundamental difference between this and “The Great Terrors”.

Most of “The Great Terrors,” without using Forbidden Origin Force, are on par with Semi-Saints or Quasi-Saints.

In the path of the Evil Ghost Dao, these “Great Terrors” are not particularly profound.

However, this one, at the Immortal Emperor level, even without using Forbidden Origin Force, was equivalent to an Evil Spirit Saint!

Once it used the Forbidden Origin Force, this creature’s strength could be restored to the Immortal Emperor tier.

That was what made it so troublesome.

Forbidden Origin Force, after all, had its limits; recovering to the Immortal Emperor level required too much of it.

It couldn’t possibly use it recklessly.

Once it did, the combined forces of many Saints, using their trump cards, could presumably withstand it for a while.

After all, this was no longer its era, and without the boost of the world, it was far inferior to the contemporary Immortal Emperors.

But now, even without using the Forbidden Origin Force, it was an Evil Spirit Saint, utterly unafraid of attrition.
