"From this day forward, you are my sixth disciple."
At the Great Mo Academy, numerous world realms, ancestral gods, and ancestral immortals gathered, and the Great Mo Dao Lord calmly made his announcement.
The Great Dao Lord ruled over a territory and was far more skilled in divination than ordinary people. Although his disciple-acceptance ceremony was not particularly solemn, it still had a significant impact.
Soon, the news that Daoist Damo was accepting another personal disciple spread throughout the entire Damo Domain.
After all, Daoist Damo is the strongest in the Damo Domain, and over the long years, there have only been five direct disciples under his command. Now that there is one more, it naturally surprises countless beings.
However, upon learning that it was Xia Mangqing, most of the creatures calmed down. After all, Xia Mangqing was a famous monstrous ancestral immortal who had already gained considerable fame in the Great Mo Domain tens of thousands of years ago.
Now that he has reached the World Realm, it's not an exaggeration to say that he was accepted as a disciple by Daoist Da Mo.
As for the faction Xia Mangqing previously belonged to—the Myriad Laws Sect—it naturally supported this wholeheartedly. In the Myriad Laws Sect, once a disciple reaches the World Realm, they gain extremely high influence and autonomy.
Even the vows made when joining the sect can be renegotiated, with very few restrictions.
After all, for forces like the Myriad Laws Sect in the World Realm, the most important thing is to win them over. As for someone like Xia Mangqing, as long as he still acknowledges that he is a disciple of the Myriad Laws Sect and will not harm the sect, he will not have much impact.
"Yes, disciple greets Master."
Xia Mangqing bowed respectfully, and after completing some formal apprenticeship ceremonies, he officially became the sixth disciple of the Great Mo Daojun.
"Come with me."
After the apprentice-acceptance ceremony, Daoist Da Mo summoned Xia Mangqing for a private audience.
In a side hall, Daoist Da Mo looked at Xia Mangqing, first taking out a magical treasure from a cave heaven, and said, "You can learn the Daoist teachings, supernatural powers and secret techniques on your own at the Dao Academy. Here are ten thousand cubic meters of Chaos Spirit Liquid and an eternal divine weapon. You can take them and use them."
Xia Mangqing paused briefly before accepting the reply: "Thank you, Master."
Daoist Da Mo nodded calmly, then took out a scroll: "This is a star map, which records the path to Tiancang Palace. I have calculated it for you. Your avatar should have a safe journey to Tiancang Palace, and may even gain some great fortune."
"good fortune?"
Xia Mangqing was a little curious, and a few thoughts popped into her mind.
"There are some things that even I can't predict. Although the prediction is that there will be no real danger, there may still be unexpected events and variables. You must be careful," Da Mo Daojun advised.
However, Xia Mangqing chose to go with a clone. Even if it was damaged, it would only waste some resources, so he wasn't too worried, unless—Xia Mangqing was extremely unlucky and encountered a being that could kill living beings by following cause and effect.
In that case, there's nothing we can do.
"Yes, thank you, Master."
Xia Mangqing said, "Although I have just become a disciple, Daoist Da Mo has already achieved so much. It is definitely worth it to become his disciple."
After that, Xia Mangqing left the side hall and went to the Dao Academy on her own. The Dao Academy of Da Mo Academy was actually similar to the Daoist Scripture Hall. Xia Mangqing was thinking of going in to see if there was a suitable lineage.
Meanwhile, on the other side, one of Xia Mangqing's clones, after preparing a batch of resources, also boarded the teleportation array. Spacetime distorted, and the entire array shone brightly, tearing through spacetime and sending Xia Mangqing inside the array to another distant spacetime.
In the blink of an eye, nearly a century has passed.
In the distance, there is a star.
Above the stars, there are three enormous fountains, each like a towering mountain, shooting into the clouds and shimmering with colorful light under the starlight.
It is precisely because of this strange phenomenon that this place was named Sanquanxing (Three Springs Star).
"Beyond this lies the Sea of Darkness."
The Dark Sea is the most dangerous area on this necessary route, and it would take nearly a thousand years to cross it.
Most importantly, the Dark Sea is extremely dangerous, and even with Xia Mangqing's strength, he is not 100% confident.
Swish!
Just as Xia Mangqing approached the Three Springs Star, a stream of light flew to his front, revealing a Chaos Immortal.
"Fellow Daoist, have you come to Sanquan Star to traverse the Sea of Darkness?" This was a female Chaos Immortal, with an exceptionally beautiful appearance and an irresistible allure.
"Not bad." Xia Mangqing nodded.
The female Chaos Immortal smiled and said, "That's perfect. Right now, on Three Springs Star, including you and me, there are ninety-six World Realm cultivators who all need to traverse the Sea of Darkness. We plan to gather ninety-nine of them so we can form an array and coordinate our attacks. I wonder if you would be willing to join us?"
"Of course, fellow Daoist, you can rest assured that after we have gathered ninety-nine people, we will swear an oath to ensure our safety."
"Since that's the case, there's nothing wrong with it."
Xia Mangqing nodded, but the scene gave him a sense of déjà vu, and a thought popped into his mind: "The 'near danger' that Master Da Mo spoke of, could it be that they were taken away by the Mangya Kingdom?"
If that's the case, then it is indeed a stroke of good fortune, and a truly extraordinary one at that.
"it is good."
The female Chaos Immortal smiled faintly: "By the way, my name is Yue Chang. May I ask how you should address me, friend?"
"Qingxuan," Xia Mangqing said.
"Fellow Daoist Qingxuan, please."
The Moon-Clad Immortal extended a warm invitation, then led Xia Mangqing into the Three Springs Star, where they introduced themselves to the other World Realm experts.
Decades later, three more World Realm experts arrived from Sanquan Star. With their numbers complete, they made a life oath and boarded a warship of the Dao Divine Weapon level to enter the Dark Sea.
The warships traversed the void time and time again. The Dark Sea was too vast, and even if the warships were divine weapons of the Dao, they could not cross it easily. Even if everything went smoothly, it would take hundreds of years to cross the Dark Sea.
Moreover, many areas within the Dark Sea are shrouded in a chaotic and turbulent spatial ocean, making it impossible to traverse the void and forcing people to fly, which greatly increases the danger.
"Gentlemen, in the Dark Sea, the most dangerous creature is the Strange Bat Clan." They travel in large groups, and based on my past experience, they will launch attacks from time to time. Please be careful.
A world god reminded him that he had traversed the Dark Sea and therefore knew some things.
The Strange Bat Clan is a special species born in the Dark Sea. They are divided into black, silver, and gold Strange Bats. Although they possess at least the strength of the World Realm, their lifespan is short.
Black Strange Bats can only live for three hundred years, Silver Strange Bats can only live for one Chaos Era, only Golden Strange Bats have a normal lifespan of 108,000 Chaos Eras.
However, the Golden Bat is a treasure trove, and usually, Dao Lords of Life and Death would kill and take it away when passing through the Dark Sea. Therefore, the number of Golden Bats in the Dark Sea is very small.
Time passed slowly, and every few days, some black strange bats would attack. These black strange bats were only at the ordinary world realm level and posed no threat to them.
After all, although they are powerful, their "Dao" realm is very poor, so any ordinary World Realm cultivator can easily crush a normal black bat. This is the boost brought by "Dao".
Of course, if it were a silver bat, it would be difficult to deal with. Each one possesses strength that surpasses the peak of the World Realm. Although Xia Mangqing's clone has been improving his Dao realm over the years, without using a Dao Divine Weapon, he has only approached this level and has not truly surpassed the peak of the World Realm.
However, he also has many means. Using the divine weapon of the Dao, he can easily match the silver bat. If he goes a step further and uses the blue-and-white mist, his strength will only become stronger.
As for the golden bat, it is a special creature comparable to a Dao Lord at the first step. Even if Xia Mangqing uses all his trump cards, he is no match for it. However, there are ninety-nine World Realm cultivators here. If he leads the formation, he should be able to hold them off for a while.
But whether they can survive is another matter.
"For over three hundred years, they've attacked every few days. These strange bats are truly persistent," the Moon Garment Immortal quipped.
"The Strange Bat Clan is numerous, and their frequent attacks are likely to gather intelligence on us. We must not be careless," said Yun Gu, the World God who had once traversed the Dark Sea.
"I dare not say about the Golden Bat, but if there are only Silver Bats, we are not incapable of dealing with them," said another World God.
Having spent over three hundred years in the Dark Sea, they had fought against the Strange Bat Clan many times and were familiar with their strength. As long as it wasn't the legendary Golden Strange Bat that could rival the One-Step Dao Lord, they were confident they could deal with them.
Xia Mangqing sat not far away, just listening without saying anything, but suddenly, his expression changed.
"here we go again!"
Another Chaos Immortal also noticed this and reluctantly got up, but the next moment, his expression suddenly changed.
"It's the Silver Bat!"
"And there was more than one!"
The Chaos Immortal shouted, as it was his turn to intervene, but he was startled as soon as he extended his consciousness.
"Quickly, form ranks!"
Immortal Moon Robe immediately spoke, and then the great formation unfolded. This was a domain-amplifying formation, operating on the foundation of ninety-nine World Realm experts. Anyone within the formation would receive an amplification.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh————
The throwing knives shot out, each one a divine weapon of the Dao. This was Xia Mangqing's main weapon at present, a set of thirty-six throwing knives, which together could be considered top-grade divine weapons of the Dao.
As the blade flashed, swarms of black bats fell.
At this moment, in this chaotic ocean of space, black strange bats swarmed in like a tidal wave, while further away, more than ten silver strange bats could be seen.
"So many?"
Xia Mangqing frowned. Silver bats rarely appeared in such large numbers at once; there was only one possibility: "Oh no, there might be golden bats lurking in the shadows!"
The God of the Ancient World shouted a warning. He had traversed the Dark Sea several times and had a deep understanding of this place. He knew some of the habits of the Strange Bat Clan. In the current situation, there was a very high probability that a Golden Strange Bat was controlling things behind the scenes!
"A golden bat?!"
"Quickly! Charge out! Don't delay!"
A World Realm expert shouted, and at that moment, countless strange bats swarmed around them, especially the dozen or so silver strange bats, which were like streaks of silver light, attacking the group of World Realm experts.
"cut!"
At this moment, Xia Mangqing no longer held back.
Over the past three hundred years, his other clones have continued to cultivate with the help of the Time Treasure, greatly improving their abilities. They have truly reached the Perfection of the World Realm, and have thoroughly comprehended the Space Dao that they could understand.
He was already beyond the peak of the World Realm, and now, with the support of the formation and the power of the Azure Mist, his combat power has increased even further, almost comparable to a true Dao Lord at the first step.
Thirty-six blade beams, like a silver river cleaving through the chaotic void, pierced through countless black strange bats, and finally slashed towards nine silver strange bats.
"Such strength?!"
"It's Brother Qingxuan! I didn't know he was this powerful!"
"Great, we still have a chance!"
The World Realm cultivators were pleasantly surprised. Xia Mangqing's strength was almost comparable to that of a First-Step Dao Lord. Even with the support of the formation, to reach this level, one would have to surpass the peak of the World Realm.
At that moment, they saw hope.
Meanwhile, Xia Mangqing, distracted by controlling thirty-six throwing knives, had already slain three silver bats.
Just as he was about to press his advantage, a golden light tore open the ocean of space, followed by a series of clanging sounds, like metal clashing.
Then, all thirty-six flying knives controlled by Xia Mangqing were blasted away. In that void, a golden bat appeared, its aura causing many World Realm cultivators to tremble. It was a power far exceeding that of the World Realm!
"I didn't expect there to be a cultivator with your level of strength."
The voice of the golden bat came. Among the strange bats, the black strange bats have extremely low intelligence, but the silver and golden strange bats are no different in intelligence from normal cultivators.
"Enough with the nonsense."
Xia Mangqing pointed his fingers, and the thirty-six flying knives seemed to transform into thirty-six chaotic stars, shining with brilliant light, as they all rushed towards the golden bat.
"court death!"
With a flap of its giant golden bat wings, a surge of spatial waves rolled in. It was a special creature born from the Dark Sea, and naturally possessed certain talents, allowing it to wield the power of the Dark Sea.
However, even the Golden Bat's Dao realm was only equivalent to that of an ordinary world realm. While its attack was powerful, its Dao's mysteries were limited, and it only managed to fight Xia Mangqing to a standstill.
call out!
The next moment, the golden bat flapped its wings and transformed into a golden stream of light, its speed far exceeding the limits of the Heavenly Dao, as it charged towards Xia Mangqing. It had realized that Xia Mangqing was merely a Chaos Immortal, weak in close combat, and that as long as it got close, victory would be assured.
boom!
However, almost simultaneously, Xia Mangqing activated the Qilin Technique, and the void for millions of miles suddenly sank. The golden bat's body froze, as if it had fallen into a quagmire, and its speed decreased sharply.
Before it could escape, the power of chaos surged, and one after another, black Qilin suddenly leaped out, galloping across the spatial ocean, riding on endless spatial waves, carrying the great power of the void, and crushing towards the golden bat.
The forbidden killing move of the Qilin Technique!
With his strength, hundreds of Qilin charged forward, each possessing combat power nearly at the peak of the World Realm.
Rumble—
Xia Mangqing disregarded the cost and didn't use these black Qilins to fight. Instead, he detonated them directly. In an instant, that area of space and ocean erupted, and a great destruction descended, capable of annihilating everything.
"It worked?"
Xia Mangqing probed out with her inner strength.
Before his mental energy could even probe that void, the spatial ocean erupted in chaos, with a colossal wave, hundreds of millions of miles high, sweeping in from the infinite distance.
However, the invisible spatial force, though seemingly distant, had already pressed down, causing the entire dark sea to roar and tremble.
Xia Mangqing and the others were suppressed by that supreme spatial power, and they couldn't even move a finger!
"this----"
Xia Mangqing was extremely puzzled. There was no mention of this situation in his memories of his previous life. It didn't seem like the ruler of Mangya Kingdom at all, since that person was a space-time entity, while the power that was erupting at this moment was a space power that was pure to the extreme!
Rumble!
Just then, an endless wave of spatial energy surged down, engulfing all living beings, including the strange bats, giving them no chance to resist or even think.
