Cultivating with Top Enlightenment Chapter 896 - 382: Twisted Beings

Boundless is the Sea of Realms.

Its true size and expanse remain unknown to all, as does the nature of what hides inside it.

Yet, invariably, certain beings venture into the Sea of Realms through their unique methods.

Ning Qi, in his Realm Lord form, utilizes the Five Elements Divine Chain to ceaselessly pull in the Rule Origin power from the Sea of Realms, rapidly strengthening the True Martial Realm.

The Saint Ancestor, meanwhile, practices the Daoist Skill known as the Snake Swallowing the Elephant Divine Technique.

He positioned the Daoist Snake within the Sea of Realms to enhance the might of this Divine Technique.

Typically, only the will or the supreme powerhouses of realms can interact with the Sea of Realms.

They alone grasp that worlds have limits, while the Sea of Realms stretches infinitely.

From the Sea of Realms emerge all worlds, be they minor ones, the Spirit Realm, or even loftier realms.

Still, the origin of the Sea of Realms eludes everyone's understanding.

At this moment, the Saint Ancestor’s clone expends its final reserves of power to tear open a spatial passage leading to the Sea of Realms.

By offering himself as lure, he summons these grotesque monsters from some mysterious spot in the Sea of Realms.

Ning Qi gazed upon these monsters; such entities were utterly unfamiliar even to him.

His own ventures into the Sea of Realms had been confined to harvesting its power for the True Martial Realm's growth.

The beings he knew there were merely the ferocious beasts he had met and tamed before, such as Bee Demon Queen Feng Baihua, the black flood dragon, plus exotic creatures like tigers, leopards, wolves, lions, and eagles.

In the past, these had been demon kings from the Sea of Realms capped at the Integration limit, yet Ning Qi led them through Heavenly Tribulation collectively, elevating them to Integration Realm Demon Venerables!

Yet against the horrors now facing him—grotesque fusions of demon beasts, humans, and abominations beyond either—they seem far more ordinary.

Ning Qi swiftly transmitted a voice message to his subjugated Demon Venerables, seeking their knowledge on these monsters.

Surprisingly, most of the demon kings shook their heads, admitting they had never encountered such monsters in the Sea of Realms.

Ultimately, just the black flood dragon and Bee Demon Queen offered replies to Ning Qi.

"Master, though I've never laid eyes on those monsters myself, my bee swarm crossed paths with them once," Bee Demon Queen Feng Baihua explained.

Ning Qi promptly asked, "Then what precisely are these monsters? Share every detail you possess."

"The Sea of Realms is boundless. We fierce beast demon kings claim our individual territories, yet we rarely stray beyond them due to the immense dangers. Venturing into a stronger entity's domain spells certain doom."

"We seldom plunge into the Sea of Realms' depths, preferring safer zones near the Spirit Realm's boundary wall. That's how we swiftly join the fray when the two great Spirit Realms clash in war realms."

Feng Baihua’s clear voice resonated with a melodic hum reminiscent of buzzing bees as she went on via transmission:

"Thus, I dispatched my bee swarm merely to scout nearby regions. Beyond our fierce beast territories in the Sea of Realms lie countless mysterious zones. One swarm delved into such an unknown area. Through their eyes, I witnessed a similar monster. These beings apparently hide in unique spots within the Sea of Realms."

Curiosity piqued, Ning Qi questioned, "Oh? What sort of place was it?"

Feng Baihua answered hesitantly, "That region felt strange. Amid the Sea of Realms, it resembled a sea eye in the Spirit Realm—a swirling, warped space vortex."

Ning Qi pressed further, "Do you have any other insights on these monsters?"

Feng Baihua responded, "Apologies, Master. All I can say is they appear as native creatures of the Sea of Realms, possibly innate to it and warped by its chaos. This warping strikes not only the body but the mind's will too. Upon emerging, they live only for killing and ruin. For more, maybe the two Realm Venerables or certain Ancestors hold deeper knowledge."

"Got it, thanks for the intel!" Ning Qi acknowledged.

A faint flush colored Feng Baihua’s seductive features, as if her master's thanks left her shy.

To her, a subdued being serves its master boundlessly, no gratitude required.

Naturally, retaining a demon beast's instincts, she yet grasps little of human customs—quite forgivable.

Soon after, Ning Qi's tamed black flood dragon spoke up.

"Master, I've got details on that monster," the black flood dragon declared, sounding eager for praise.

"Spill it quick!"

The black flood dragon instantly looked aggrieved, yet it pressed on, "From the inherited memories of our black flood dragon clan, these monsters appear to originate from the ancient era when heaven and earth split apart, giving birth to the Sea of Realms amid that cataclysm."

"And then?"

"That’s it..."

Ning Qi felt speechless and snapped, "Scram!"

The black flood dragon shot a glance at the Bee Demon Queen’s expression from nearby, overwhelmed with frustration.

Why do both of them count as demon beasts, but get such unequal treatment when sharing intel with their master? Is it just because of his black color?

Should the master truly fancy the Bee Demon Queen, he could shift into her shape too!

Ning Qi paid no mind to the black flood dragon’s thoughts. His eyes fixed on the twisted creatures plunging swiftly from above.

Ning Qi looked over at Zhao Yujun and Gong Tiandao.

The Vast Immortal Sect’s Sect Leader, having witnessed the Saint Ancestor’s clone disappear and call forth these twisted beings, revealed no trace of fear on his features; rather, a flicker of delight appeared.

Upon scrutinizing those twisted monsters nearer, he realized their stares ignored the Vast Realm’s cultivators entirely, locking instead onto those from the Mountain and Sea Realm.

"Hmm? Can these twisted beings truly tell apart the cultivators from the two realms?"
