Chapter 1179

"Could it be …"

Gu Chen's heart shook. He captured blue, green, yellow and other colored balls of light. He could feel the faint aura of source energy coming from them!

Occasionally, some of the balls of light would burrow into the ground in order to avoid his capture, and the ground would produce all sorts of strange phenomena.

When the cyan light merged with the ground, the broken ground immediately turned green, and towering trees grew.

When the icy blue light merged with the mountain rocks, that place was immediately covered by pure white snow, and the temperature plummeted.

Gu Chen looked at all of this in shock. When he looked further away, he discovered that the area of the rainbow light far exceeded his imagination. It almost covered the entire remnant!

"What are these rainbow lights? With just a slight contact, my bottleneck actually showed signs of loosening!"

"As expected of the Immortal Realm. The Old Man feels that if he were to cultivate here, he would not be far from making a breakthrough!"

The leaders of the various factions also quickly noticed the peculiarity of the rainbow lights, and they all spoke in delight.

Gu Chen's eyes revealed a strange glint. The leaders of the various factions were originally Quasi-Emperors or late-stage Immortal Venerables. When they came in contact with the source energy that only emperors possessed, even if it was just a little bit, they would naturally be moved.

"The Old Man knows what these rainbow lights are. They are Immortal Energy! I never expected that after a million years, the Immortal Energy in the Immortal Realm would be so dense! "

Li Shunyu seemed to have thought of something, and said excitedly.

"Immortal Energy?"

The eyes of the leaders of the Ascension Sect, Ling Long Celestial Palace and the other factions in the Immortal Realm lit up when they heard this.

"What is Immortal Energy?"

Gu Chen asked in confusion. In his eyes, it was an extremely faint source energy.

"The Immortal Realm was created by the Celestial Emperor and seven Immortal Emperors in the Immemorial Era. The worldly energy here is different from the outside world. We call it Immortal Energy."

"According to the vision of the Celestial Emperor and the seven Immortal Emperors, under the cover of Immortal Energy, even mortals in the Immortal Realm could live forever. Everyone could become immortals and live freely. It is an ideal world."

"However, the Immortal Energy back then was not as dense as it is now. The Immortal Energy here is so dense that it has turned into a spirit. It is truly inconceivable."

Li Shunyu hurriedly explained.

Gu Chen fell into deep thought.

Origin was the source of nomological power. It could be said to be a higher level of Yuan Qi.

If the Origin Energy of Heaven and Earth was everywhere, even if it was very faint, and mortals were nourished by it all year round, they could indeed live forever.

And it was indeed easier for cultivators to cultivate to the Immortal Shedding Realm in such an environment. After all, the Origin Qi was effective in the Imperial Capital.

In other words, this immortal spiritual energy was actually origin energy. It was just that when the Celestial Thearch and the Immortal Emperors created the Immortal Realm, they gave it a new name.

Thinking about it carefully, Gu Chen could not help but gasp. He was very close to the Dao Querying Realm now, and he knew how difficult it was to create a world where the source qi was everywhere.

That wasn't as simple as opening up a space. It also required an enormous amount of Origin Energy!

"The Celestial Sovereign and the other Immortal Emperors are so powerful? How did they do it? "

The Taoist Priest Feng Zhen could not hide his shock and could not help but look at Gu Chen.

He was the only one here who had truly stepped into the Dao Querying Realm. Even the Ghost Emperor, who had the body of an Immortal Emperor, had not reached the level of his soul.

It was because he had already reached the Dao Querying Realm and was well-versed in the principles of origin energy that he found the creation of the Immortal Realm unbelievable.

No matter how strong the Celestial Sovereign and the other Immortal Emperors were, their own origin energy alone was not enough to create this world!

"No matter how they did it, the Celestial Sovereign and the other Immortal Emperors must have put in an unimaginable amount of effort," replied Gu Chen.

He had almost entered the Dao Querying Realm several times. Only he could understand the shock that the Taoist Priest Feng Zhen felt.

"The Immortal Realm has long collapsed. Logically speaking, the immortal spiritual energy should not be as strong as before. Why is it even denser than the Immemorial Age? This doesn't make sense!"

Ji Mengchen followed Li Shunyu's words and asked with a face full of confusion.

Although the immortal spiritual energy here was extremely beneficial to advanced Immortal Venerables like them, it was denser than the Immemorial Age. This defied common sense and made them feel uneasy. They were afraid that the immortal spiritual energy was a scam.

"There's only one explanation," said Tang Ning after taking a deep breath.

Everyone turned to look at him.

"When the Divine Realm collapsed, the 8,555 Fruits of Way that Xing Jun had collected for millions of years were reintegrated into the Ninth Realm. I'm afraid that a large portion of the Fruits of Way were integrated into the ruins of the Immortal Realm!"

Tang Ning's words moved everyone.

"Indeed, after the recovery of the power of Dao, the ruins of the Ninth Realm appeared frequently. The reason was that the ruins were nourished by the power of Dao and regained its power."

"The 8,555 Fruits of Way were the only thing that could make the Immortal Qi of the collapsed Immortal Realm even denser than it was at its peak!"

Everyone came to a sudden realization and their eyes lit up.

The 8,555 Fruits of Way had integrated into the Ninth Realm and created a golden era for two years. The ruins of the Immortal Realm had been nourished by the largest portion of the Fruits of Way. What kind of treasured land had it become?

"So that's how it is …"

Gu Chen felt as if he was suddenly enlightened. Many of the questions in his mind during this period of time were suddenly cleared up.

Before Gu Xunfeng died, he had said that he had eavesdropped on the conversation between Fang Wen and Mu Chengfeng.

From that conversation, he only remembered one sentence. The Immortal Realm itself was the greatest opportunity.

Gu Chen had never understood what that sentence meant. Now that he knew about the changes in the Immortal Realm, he suddenly understood everything.

The Primordial Immortal Realm, which had obtained the greatest opportunity from the 8,555 Fruits of Way, was indeed the greatest opportunity. Just the omnipresent Immortal Qi alone was enough to give birth to batches of experts!

Fang Wen's motive for planning all this was suddenly clear. No matter what he was going to do next, it must be related to the huge amount of Immortal Qi!

"I've always wondered how an outsider like Fang Wen could calculate the specific time and location of the Immortal Realm. So that's what happened."

Tang Ning revealed a vexed expression. "It's not that he had a deep understanding of the ruins of the Immortal Realm, but that he accurately calculated the abnormal area of the Spirit Qi in the Ninth Realm."

"I'm afraid that not long after he arrived in the Ninth Realm, he calculated that the real golden era was within the ruins of the Immortal Realm. He had planned for this for a long time!"

Tang Ning's words caused the leaders of the various factions to tremble. They had a new understanding of the threat that Fang Wen posed.

The other geniuses from the Outer Realm were taking advantage of the Ninth Realm's recovery to expand their territory and attempt to become Emperors here.

However, not only had he stepped into the Dao Querying Realm without anyone noticing, he had also found the place with the most benefits from the 8,555 Fruits of Way. In order to enter this place, he had played all the geniuses from the Immortal Realm, God Realm, and Outer Realm.

The Genesis Master lineage that he came from was truly terrifying. He had even accurately calculated where the 8,555 Fruits of Way had gone!

With a flip of his hand, Gu Chen took out a few immortal treasures with pure nature-attribute that he had obtained from Mu Chengfeng.

When he threw the immortal treasures out, the surrounding Immortal Qi immediately sensed it and actually burrowed into the immortal treasures!

Immortal treasures with pure nature-attribute could collect Immortal Qi that corresponded to the Origin Source. This further proved the original plan of the geniuses from the Outer Realm.

"Fang Wen is definitely after the huge amount of Immortal Qi in the Immortal Realm. The question is, what is he going to do? Why does he need so many of us to participate? "

Tang Ning pinched his fingers and calculated carefully. They had already obtained most of the answers, but they had not obtained the most crucial part.

If they could not calculate what Fang Wen's next move would be, all of them would be in danger.

If Fang Wen could calculate the location of the 8,555 Fruits of Way, it would not be strange for him to think of a way to kill everyone.

Gu Chen looked at the immortal treasures that were absorbing the Immortal Qi. The amount of Immortal Qi that these immortal treasures could absorb was extremely limited. It was no wonder that the more immortal treasures there were, the better.

Given Fang Wen's boldness, he definitely wanted to take down the entire Immortal Realm. However, the question was, what exactly was he going to do?

"Gu Chen, that Life and Death sculpture …"
