My Master Knows It All

Although all the clothing was corroded, she could still vaguely recognize that these were the uniforms of the Burial Demon Sect and the Darkish Demonic Sect.

And those bones...

Demonic Lord Qing Shi counted them one by one.

”Two bodies are missing, so it seems two people didn’t die here.”

Demonic Lord Qing Shi’s gaze fell upon the stone door in front of him, clearly indicating that behind it lay some kind of inheritance or secret chamber.

”Did those two enter inside? Could the person who obtained the Chaos Qi be in there?”

Demonic Lord Qing Shi glanced around and decided to stay here.

She wanted to wait for the two who entered the stone door to come out.

As long as there was a sliver of opportunity, she wouldn’t give up.

That was chaos energy, such a substantial amount of chaos energy, enough for her cultivation to reach the Path True Immortal Realm!

She exhausted herself and even risked suspicion from the Wanxiao Sect, all for this chaos energy, yet in the end, someone else benefited from it.

How could she possibly give up!

Of course, if the stone door had another exit and they could leave from elsewhere, she’d accept the loss.

Inside the stone door, Cao Zhen continuously absorbed Chaos Qi bit by bit. As the Chaos Qi within him grew purer and more abundant, a projection slowly appeared behind him, covering the land below and the entire island.

Cities, mountain ranges, rivers, and buildings, along with figures, emerged from his projection.

This was his domain, the Prosperous Era Domain!

This projection seemed not just a mere image but like the arrival of a true dynasty to this world.

Cao Zhen suddenly opened his eyes, feeling that within his domain, he was the ruler of this world, even the Heavenly Dao could not affect him!

”So this is a domain...”

Cao Zhen looked back at his domain, and his mind flashed with countless experiences as an ordinary person within the Guardian Immortal Imperial Dynasty, each experience passing by like a film. His domain became increasingly solid, and as it solidified, the Immortal Mountain behind him began to grow rapidly.

In the blink of an eye, the Immortal Mountain reached a height of 490 zhang.

”Finally, I’ve entered the Immortal Path Domain.”

Cao Zhen saw that he had used only a small portion of Chaos Qi, stored it away, and then turned towards the Life Ancient Tree. In his hand appeared a sharp sword, and he focused on a black cocoon, wielding his immortal energy to strike.

Instantly, forces gathered from mountains, rivers, and figures within his domain, converging on his sword.

As this sword fell, it felt as if the whole world was crashing down.

The sword struck the black silken thread with a crisp, resonant sound, followed by powerful recoil.

The thread snapped mostly in half under the impact, only a barely visible thread still connecting the tree to the cocoon.

”This is the power of a domain. When I wield a sword, the domain naturally augments its strength. But, considering this, my sword couldn’t break through the black silk; these threads are indeed formidable.”

Cao Zhen took another look at the black thread and then slashed again with his sword.

This time, the black thread finally severed, the cocoon fell to the ground with a soft sound, and suddenly it shook violently, as if something inside was trying to break free.

Cao Zhen’s expression turned serious, his immortal energy rapidly intensified as he watched the cocoon alertly, ready to attack if anything emerged.

Gradually, the cocoon’s trembling diminished, and within moments, it stopped moving altogether, and the poisonous energy inside stopped dispersing.

”No struggle? Dead?”

Cao Zhen stepped forward, approached the cocoon, and carefully sensed any movement inside.

”The life force within has vanished. Whether dead or in a dormant state, I am unsure.”

Cao Zhen glanced at the cocoon, then turned to the other cocoons, swinging his sword to slash down one after another from the Tree of Life.

And with each cocoon that fell, they would shake as if the life within was trying to escape, but soon they would settle, with the life force inside fading away.

”It seems by breaking the cocoon beforehand, they haven’t accumulated enough strength to break free.

Luckily, I discovered it early; the life force within these cocoons is already at the level of the Immortal Path Domain, and they can’t break free. They likely need to mature to the True Immortal Realm to emerge.

If ninety-nine True Immortal Realm poison creatures suddenly appeared here, a significant upheaval would surely occur.

And if they could leave this danger zone, the entire Eastern Province would face disaster!”

As each cocoon fell, the poisonous energy in this space gradually diminished.

The decreasing energy also made the emitted poison less potent. With the last cocoon’s fall, no more toxic energy emanated, and the dark hues on the Life Ancient Tree’s trunk gradually faded into a brown color.
