Chapter 672: Chapter 513: Three Thousand Years (Part 2)
So with no other choice, they could only slink away from the outer reaches of the Star Sea World and return to the Demon Realm.
The little bit of schadenfreude that had just risen in their hearts completely vanished at this moment… leaving only endless humiliation and hatred.
The Celestial Dragon World was far too powerful, and it had close ties with all the major cultivation worlds; even the Demon Nest would not lightly provoke this colossal behemoth.
….
“Let’s go back!”
The nine Mahayana Stage Cultivators of the Celestial Dragon World each split up some of the items stripped from the Demon Emperor’s corpse, then gave the order to return.
“Sect Master, aren’t we going to deal with the Star Sea World?” an Integration Stage Cultivator sent a voice transmission to ask.
“Deal with it? How? Do you know how many of you would have to die to take it? Under the suppression of the Power of the World, whether we can even take it is still up in the air!”
“Then are we going to initiate a world‑level war?”
“We’ll see. The price to start one is too high, and it’s not like we don’t have other ways. We’ll go back and study it first!”
Given the strength of the Celestial Dragon World, there should be absolutely no problem winning the Star Sea World in a world‑level war, but the price they would have to pay was far too great!
Judging from today’s situation, to win the Star Sea World in a world‑level war, with Mahayana Stage Cultivators unable to intervene, they would inevitably pay an extremely high cost.
But once the combat strength of the Celestial Dragon World suffered too great a loss, the consequences would be unpredictable. One had to know that the coordinates of the Celestial Dragon World were long since no secret, and to strike at the Star Sea World, which was also an Immortal Cultivation Realm, the price they needed to pay would be extremely heavy.
Now, they had to find an appropriate method, seizing the Star Sea World at the smallest possible price….
…
On the other end of the Star Sea World’s passage entrance, when Meng Tianqi saw that no one had come charging up to attack for a long time, he gradually let out a breath of relief.
Only with the Power of the World suppressing the outsiders had he barely managed, staking his life, to slay three Integration Cultivators, and by sheer ferocity had forced back the remaining seven Integration Cultivators.
Yet he himself had also suffered no light injuries in this battle.
“Hopefully there won’t be another war of this Level in the short term!”
He himself could barely hold on, but the Star Sea World could no longer bear it.
If they did not recuperate for a period of time, the very foundations of the entire world might well be completely drained.
In this battle with the Demon Realm, the potential of those who survived had already been squeezed to the limit for the time being, and their minds had long since been pushed to the edge. It was hard to predict what would happen if a new war broke out.
The only thing certain was that if another large portion of this last surviving ten percent died, the foundation of the entire world would be utterly exhausted, the Star Sea World would suffer the most severe break in inheritance, and it might not recover even in tens of thousands of years.
But conversely, if during this period the Star Sea World could recuperate and regrow, then after this war it would undergo a complete metamorphosis!
The current Star Sea World already possessed the potential to shake the All Heavens and Universe!
It merely needed more time to grow!
Especially those Star Sea Warriors who had crawled back from Hell in this war!
“Old partner, then stay here and keep me company!”
“I’m afraid before this passage is fully repaired, we won’t be getting any rest…”
Driving the Demon Blade into the ground once again, Meng Tianqi closed his eyes and went back into meditation.
He himself was very tired now and needed ample time to recuperate.
But with the passage to the Star Sea World blasted open, repairs would take at least several hundred years. During this period, besides the Star Emperor Qi Ping, only he was sitting guard here; he didn’t trust anyone else.
Unless Ji Qingyue broke through to Integration and came to guard in his place.
This Realm war had been a narrow escape from certain death, but for Void Refining and Integration Cultivators like them, it was indeed also an opportunity. If not for the abundant Spiritual Qi on the Realm Battlefield, and the massive amount of energy they had devoured from the Demon Race, then relying solely on the current resources of the Star Sea World, who knew what year of what monkey it would take for them to break through to the Integration Stage….
Moreover… Meng Tianqi also thought of the forbidden Demon Insects Blood Yu cultivated by Sister Nan, and felt it was still best for him to stay here. Otherwise, if those forbidden Demon Insects got out, who knew what consequences they might bring.
Even if it wasn’t the Star Sea World, what if they went to other worlds, devoured everything, and triggered the most terrifying cosmic catastrophe?
From the current situation, even if he had to face the Demon Realm and Demon Race again, Meng Tianqi did not want to deal with such terrifying forbidden Demon Insects, because he simply had no idea how to kill them…
Right now, while they were still weak, they could still be sealed. But if their numbers and strength rose to Void Refining, even Integration Stage? How would one even fight that?
The unknown and despair were what tormented people the most…
….
In the flick of a finger, three thousand years flashed by!
Fortunately, during these three thousand years, the Star Sea World did not suffer another Attack, and for reasons unknown, the Celestial Dragon World never set foot here again.
Guarding the entrance to the Star Sea World with the Demon Blade in hand for three thousand years, Meng Tianqi had only encountered the disturbance of a single Void Swift Giant Beast.
Not only did the other party fail to invade, it even smoothly became nourishment and resources for Meng Tianqi and the Demon Blade’s recovery.
With that massive physical body as supply, the injuries on Meng Tianqi’s body had fully healed, and his Cultivation had begun to slowly advance.
However, the one that had changed the most was still the Demon Blade at his side, which Baili Yun had turned into!
Because at this moment, on the Demon Blade there was a pitch‑black demonic phantom sitting cross‑legged, clearly visible!
With each breath, the aura on its body grew stronger and stronger, having already recovered back to the Void Refining Stage. At this moment, the Demon Blade no longer needed to root itself in Meng Tianqi’s Dantian to sustain itself in long battles…
The only thing that puzzled Meng Tianqi was that the memories belonging to Baili Yun still showed no sign of recovery for some reason…
Because of Meng Tianqi’s watch, the Star Sea World had also entered a true post‑war soaring phase during these three thousand years!
First, on the world‑level scale, the Star Sea World, having devoured a portion of the Demon Realm’s Power of Origin, successfully made up part of its own missing Origin.
This meant that instead of entering a gradually withering and declining era of dwindling Spiritual Qi, the Star Sea World had instead shown faint signs of a Spiritual Qi revival!
Under the enforced regulations of the Nine Star Sea Realms, Heaven and Earth themselves entered a positive, virtuous cycle.
In such a state, Spirit Veins began to rapidly recover, and the Spiritual Qi between Heaven and Earth gradually increased.
Even the frequency at which various opportunities and fortuitous Spiritual Objects appeared was on the rise.
The only thing that began to drop sharply was the birth rate of Cultivators with Special Talents, especially the number of those born with special constitutions, which obviously decreased, as if that great war three thousand years ago had already overdrawn this portion of Origin.
Fortunately, this impact was not too great. The reduction in the number of specially gifted geniuses did not affect the normal development of the Star Sea World.
As the talent‑training system was gradually perfected, all kinds of construction talents steadily increased.
From core industries such as Alchemy, Talisman crafting, Artifact Refining, and Array research… to all kinds of Spirit Field planting, Spirit Beast husbandry, and architectural construction… almost everything was steadily improving year after year…
The entire Immortal Cultivation Realm began to see all sorts of novel, strange things never before seen… In three thousand years, the whole Star Sea World had practically been remade!
But among all the changes in these years, the most astonishing was still the explosive surge of mid‑tier combat strength!
Especially this group that had returned alive from the Realm Battlefield: their strength had entered an unprecedented period of explosive growth. After returning from the Realm Battlefield, everyone’s strength rose at a rapid pace, far surpassing those Cultivators who had never set foot on the Realm Battlefield.
And it was precisely because of the suppression from this group of Cultivators that the Star Sea World had gone three thousand years without any great conflicts, nor any extreme, top‑down greedy exploitation, nor unrestrained plundering of Heaven and Earth.
Instead, they had begun to guide people on how to study and transform Heaven and Earth themselves, letting the world naturally become more prosperous and stronger… because this group that had returned from the battlefield knew all too well the price of draining the pond to catch fish, and even more clearly where the true enemy lay.
Most importantly, they could all clearly feel that the world Qi Ping had created was a choice that was good for almost everyone…
….
At the same time, within the seven‑colored immortal veins of the Nine Star Sea Realms, Qi Ping, who had been in Sleep for three thousand years, finally awoke slowly…
