Wait, How Did My Digital Girlfriend Become a Sword Immortal? Chapter 753: The Problem
Chapter 753: The Problem
...
"Where exactly did he go?"
Chen Niu had practically searched all of Shenlongjia, yet still couldn't find any trace of Chen Huaian.
He had even triggered a terrifying beast tide within Shenlongjia, launching indiscriminate attacks across the entire area.
No cultivator, no matter how steady, could remain indifferent under the assault of such a beast tide; they would have to take evasive action, right?
And as long as there was even the slightest fluctuation of a human cultivator's True Essence, it wouldn't escape the detection of his Divine Sense.
But the final result was—nothing.
"Could it be that Sword Cultivator has already left the Shenlongjia area? That shouldn't be!"
Chen Niu couldn't figure it out, but he understood that continuing to waste time here was pointless; it was better to go do something else.For example, releasing Wu E from the formation...
...
Near the C Province Exorcist Division, on a secluded mountain peak.
"Big brother, you've finally released me!" Wu E hugged Chen Niu's tail, tears and snot flowing freely. "Being trapped inside, I was completely helpless, could only watch time pass. But now that you're here, our plan can continue... However, elder brother, how did your strength suddenly increase so much?!"
"No need to go to Shenlongjia anymore," Chen Niu said with a gloomy face. "The two Demon Sealing Pagodas in Shenlongjia have already been breached, and the Well of Heaven has opened."
Wu E's eyes lit up upon hearing this. "You mean to say, you've already killed the Fierce Beasts and brought back their Demonic Souls?!"
The corner of Chen Niu's mouth twitched. "I did not say that."
Wu E: "Then you..."
"The Fierce Beasts' Demonic Souls were snatched away by a Sword Cultivator," Chen Niu sighed helplessly. "That Sword Cultivator is one of the variables. My previous Demon Immortal avatar was killed. Now I am the second Demon Immortal avatar, so my strength has naturally increased considerably. The one who killed my avatar is also one of the variables, also a Sword Cultivator!"
"What? You... you were killed?!" Even though saying it sounded a bit strange, that was the fact.
Wu E was utterly dumbfounded.
In his view, Chen Niu's combat power could already be called the ceiling of Earth Star.
Even if that so-called Her Eminence from the Kunlun Immortal Palace went all out, she wouldn't be a match for Chen Niu.
Such a powerful Chen Niu was actually killed?!
Unbelievable!
And the Fierce Beasts' Demonic Souls are gone too...
Which means that now, five out of the nine Demonic Souls are gone, leaving only four.
Even if the remaining four Demonic Souls fuse with him, can he truly possess most of Taotie's power?
I'm afraid his strength at that point wouldn't even match his initial avatar when he first descended...
At this moment, Wu E was starting to feel a bit anxious.
If his future strength isn't sufficient, how is he supposed to fight those variables?
As an avatar, there will come a day when he meets the main body again.
If his performance is good, the main body can give him a chance to exist independently...
But now, he seems to be getting further and further away from the words 'good performance'.
"Elder brother, what do we do now? Just watch helplessly as those variables nibble away at resources that should rightfully be ours?"
"Hmph! How is that possible?!" Chen Niu narrowed his eyes slightly. "I already have a plan!"
"First, I've discovered some commonalities among those variables. Whether it's the two confirmed variables, Zhang Yibai and Gu Changsheng, or the ones we encountered later and identified as variables, without exception, they are all Sword Cultivators!
However, they don't seem to be part of a single collective either. Just like the Ascender sects on Earth Star, they are also divided into different sects, but they are all sects that use swords!
We can know this from how Zhang Yibai and Gu Changsheng helped Hua Jin snatch Celestial Jade Marrow from those variables!
Although it's unclear why Hua Jin would cooperate with those two variables, still..."
Chen Niu said with an air of assured victory, "The more we understand the variables, the greater our chances of victory. We already know they also need resources from Earth Star, such as Celestial Jade Marrow, such as Demonic Souls... The fifth Well of Heaven is opening, and Celestial Jade Marrow is about to descend again..."
"Elder brother, you mean to use Celestial Jade Marrow as bait?" Wu E's eyes lit up.
"No, no, no..." Chen Niu narrowed his eyes. "Not just Celestial Jade Marrow. Those variables have an even greater interest in the Demonic Souls of the Fierce Beasts within the Demon Sealing Pagodas... My main body possesses a divine ability that can move mountains and fill seas, even capable of altering Earth Veins.
Since these variables are so greedy for resources, why not give them a massive wave!"
Chen Niu spread his arms wide. "I will communicate with my main body and use this divine ability to concentrate the remaining four Demon Sealing Pagodas and the Celestial Jade Marrow eruption sites into one area. This way, we can advance to capture or kill the variables, or retreat to activate four Wells of Heaven at once, hehehe!"
Chen Niu clenched his fist.
With four Wells of Heaven opening simultaneously, he could immediately communicate with the main body to obtain power approaching that of an immortal. At that time, no matter how many variables there were, they couldn't possibly be his match.
This is a chain of interlocking schemes.
No matter how cunning those variables are, how could they possibly anticipate his strategy?!
Unless those people have the ability to foresee the future!
Chen Niu didn't believe it.
Who could grasp fate in their hands? Even his main body couldn't do it!
Wu E's eyes widened, seemingly also imagining that scene.
The Demon Sealing Pagodas and Celestial Jade Marrow attracting all the variables to one place.
Then he and Chen Niu would round them all up in one fell swoop...
Hehehe!
Just thinking about it is beautiful!
Once Chen Niu and Wu E discussed this, they were no longer in a hurry.
Meanwhile, over in the Cangyun Realm, Li Qingran was encountering trouble regarding her plan to train in a miniature world.
"Sect Master, if you want to go train in a small thousand world now, I'm afraid there's a bit of a problem..."
Both Su Qinian and Zhang Mengchu looked troubled.
They had both traveled to small thousand worlds before and were very familiar with the situation there. Hearing Li Qingran's request now, they couldn't help but frown.
"Sect Master, although we usually talk about small thousand worlds this and that, in reality, small thousand worlds aren't as simple as you think. Especially the place you want to go, it's not as simple as it used to be."
"What do you mean..." Li Qingran's brows knitted slightly together. "Are you saying that small thousand worlds are now inaccessible?"
"It's not that absolute..." Su Qinian spread his hands. "First, there are many small thousand worlds. Some are similar to our Cangyun Realm, but others are extremely dangerous, filled with irrational aberrant beasts and evil species. These aberrant beasts and evil species are completely impossible to communicate with; they are natural killing machines."
"Then I'll just go to a small thousand world similar to Cangyun Realm," Li Qingran said.
"That's precisely the problem."
Su Qinian shook his head. "Sect Master, you are unaware. Currently, the passages connecting Cangyun Realm to the various small thousand worlds are completely chaotic. This means it's impossible to determine which small thousand world lies behind a dimensional gate.
If you pass through a dimensional gate and enter a small thousand world overrun with evil species... I'm afraid there would be life-threatening danger..."
They were pleased that Li Qingran wanted to go train in a small thousand world.
It showed she hadn't lost her original intent due to her status and position.
But after all, she is the ancestor's sweetheart.
They couldn't just watch Li Qingran take such a risk.
