Longevity Martial Arts: Starting from Inner Core Skill

Chapter 731: Chapter 1 Human Traces in the Starry Sky Secret Realm

The people of the Chaotic Realm withdrew, and naturally, the first to discover it were the powerful beings of the Desire Realm who had been facing tremendous pressure.

Without the enemy, they instantly felt relaxed.

“What’s going on, why have the Cultivators of the Chaotic Realm suddenly retreated?”

“Are they about to launch a general attack?”

The news quickly reached the ears of the Desire True Monarch and the Phantom True Monarch.

Neither understood exactly what had happened. Not long ago, the terribly ferocious Chaotic Realm had retreated, as if they had seen some formidable beast or flood.

“The Chaotic Realm has retreated. Logically, this should be good news, so why do I feel even more uneasy?” the Phantom True Monarch frowned. He wasn’t a humanoid creature; his face was covered with fine feathers. When he furrowed his brow, all the feathers bunched up together, making him look somewhat terrifying.

“At what time would a powerful force like theirs suddenly retreat, and so swiftly at that?” the Desire True Monarch hazarded a guess at the crux of the matter.

“Are you saying that the Chaotic Realm has encountered an even more powerful enemy and had to retreat? But what kind of enemy would require them all to retreat in order to resist… to resist…” Before he could finish, the Phantom True Monarch understood the implication of the Desire True Monarch’s words.

“I’m afraid a far more terrifying enemy has come to our Desire Realm. If the guess isn’t wrong, then it should be the Source Star that the Prophet spoke of. The Chaotic Realm and the Source Star must have already clashed. Only because the Chaotic Realm suffered did they retreat so easily.”

Sure enough, as the two were talking, because the pressure from the Chaotic Realm had disappeared, the forces of the Desire Realm quickly discovered another cross-realm passageway within their world.

Due to the fear instilled by the Chaotic Realm, they rapidly reported the discovery.

After receiving the news, the Desire True Monarch and the Phantom True Monarch both fell silent.

“What should we do now…”

“Continue with the plan as prepared, and also send someone to gauge the Source Star’s intentions. If the Source Star isn’t the kind of power that would devour our world, perhaps we can submit,” the Desire True Monarch made a clear decision.

If it had been several years ago, before the hit by the Chaotic Realm, he might have resisted.

But after several years, they had been intimidated by the Chaotic Realm. Facing the Source Star, an even more powerful entity, he did not believe he could be an opponent.

…

Meanwhile, the Ten Thousand Beasts True Monarch and others had already retreated to the Chaotic Realm.

Retreating without even seeing the enemy had greatly dampened their spirits.

After returning to the Chaotic Realm, they each went their own way, preparing for the next action.

This scene was observed by the Daoist.

“Encountered it again… the Source Star is developing really fast, so fast it’s frightening. Relying purely on devouring worlds, it’s basically impossible to catch up with the Source Star. We need to find a different direction.”

[What are you going to do next? To stop devouring worlds, wouldn’t that be sitting ducks?]

The Daoist’s eyes flickered, his inner thoughts unknown, but he still gave a reply:

“Don’t worry, I have my methods. You’ve also seen the speed at which the Source Star conquers worlds. They can start with several worlds at once, so there must be some way to locate the cross-realm passageways. The original method won’t work, it will only get us left further behind.”

[Fine, I hope your methods work.]

The Daoist said no more, knowing that more talk could lead to mistakes.

Some plans must not be disclosed.

…

Desire Realm.

The Desire True Monarch had already investigated the information about the Source Star.

After the investigation, both he and the Phantom True Monarch were extremely alarmed.

Originally, the Prophet only knew the name “Source Star.”

They had no clear idea which world it actually referred to.

But after investigating, they found that this so-called Source Star was the very planet they once sought to invade.

“Should we still discuss submission?”

“Do you dare to bet your life, to speculate that they’ll spare us?”

The more powerful they were, the less likely they were to leave their fates in the hands of others, especially when this “other” held a grudge against them.

“Then let’s stick to the original plan and leave!”

They were no match for the Chaotic Realm, let alone the Source Star that had caused the Chaotic Realm to step back.

Hence, the two True Monarchs decided to flee.

But when they were ready, they found out that there was no way out.

The Source Star’s starship, akin to the Eighth Realm, had sealed off the entire world of the Desire Realm.

Indeed, the starship wasn’t truly a match for the creatures of the Eighth Realm, but it could hold off for a while, and that while was enough for Zhu Xiao to catch up.

Moreover, the Desire Realm had no idea about the starship’s details. They only knew that all the places from which they could flee were locked down by a terrifying presence.

“How could the Source Star have developed so fast? If it were just one powerful being, so be it, but where did they get so many terrifying things to lock down everything?”

“Now that we can’t even run away, we fight!”

“Find a way to cut a path of blood.”

Unable to flee and unwilling to surrender.

Thus, the war still began.

After the war started, the people of the Desire Realm found out that the pressure brought about by the Source Star wasn’t as high as that of the Chaotic Realm.

At least in terms of the number of beings in the Eighth and Seventh Realms, the Source Star lagged behind the Desire Realm.

This gave the Desire Realm some hope.

They believed there was a chance for survival.

On the side of Datong, they didn’t intend to annihilate the world, nor did they plan to spare the Desire Realm’s strong. Therefore, they embarked on a protracted war.

In the year 125 of the New Era, the war against the Desire Realm broke out. Zhu Xiao participated in the battle, often clashing with the Phantom True Monarch.

In the year 126 of the New Era, Zhong personally joined the battle, and during a fight with five Seventh Realm beings, he broke through and reached the Eighth Realm.

In the year 127 of the New Era, the war continued, and the Source Star began to gain the upper hand with the help of starships.

In the year 128 of the New Era, Zhu Xiao pulled the Phantom True Monarch out of the world and into the stars for a final battle. Eventually, seizing the opportunity and coordinating with the starship, Zhu Xiao killed the Phantom True Monarch. The Dao Rhythm of the Phantom True Monarch allowed Datong to gain two more beings of the Seventh Realm.
