Chapter 367 Hunting
The sky was dark, without a single star.

The star region outside the Mythological Ancient Hunting Area is simply a place devoid of life.

Not only are there no traces of the ancient stars of life, but even the meteorites are gone.

In this pitch-dark sky, there is a place that exudes a strong breath of life.

The vital energy is so powerful that it seems as if a huge ancient life star is dormant here.

Perhaps it can attract powerful people from various races who keep appearing here.

Unfortunately, this strong life energy was wrapped up by a thick layer of Taiyin divine power.

The power of Taiyin contains the murderous intent of the universe and seems to be able to suppress all life activities.

Moreover, the fierce murderous intent scared away all passers-by.

If you walk in and take a look, you will find that behind the dense barrier of Taiyin divine power, there is no so-called ancient star of life, but only a Taoist with vitality like the sea and blood like the waves, who is regulating his breathing and recuperating there.

The Taoist was none other than Li Zhi, who had survived the Taiyin Killing Calamity and gained the recognition of the Imperial Soldier Fragments.

At this moment, Li Zhi was sitting on a black ice platform that was completely condensed by the power of Taiyin.

At the same time, Taiyin divine power mixed with the laws of Taiyin Dao continued to overflow from his body, and then the Taiyin divine power emitting a sharp murderous intent was absorbed by the Xuanbing Daotai.

The entire Xuanbing Daotai seemed to be filled with Taiyin's murderous bombs.

And this is exactly the "forbidden weapon" that Li Zhi created when he was healing his injuries.

Adhering to the principle of not wasting, Li Zhi did not refine and dispel all of the Taiyin divine power that had invaded his body during the healing process. Instead, he sealed it up and used it as a disposable "forbidden weapon".

Once the Daotai explodes, it will release the Taiyin murderous intent that is comparable to that of an early Great Sage. The lethality is definitely not small, and ordinary Saint Kings simply cannot withstand this level of Taiyin murderous intent.

With the arrival of strong men from all races, plus the killing plan secretly arranged by Daoyi, the danger level of the Mythological Ancient Hunting Area has increased exponentially.

Li Zhi knew very well that without becoming a great sage, he would not have enough strength to participate in the decisive battle in this chaotic situation.

In this turmoil, it was difficult for a Great Sage to protect himself, let alone a Saint King.

Make more preparations to be prepared.

As the Taiyin power in Li Zhi's body was discharged from his body, his external injuries healed quickly.

But the internal injuries did not heal so quickly.

As expected, performing the forbidden secret technique "Overturn of Ten Thousand Daos" from the Four Extreme Volumes of "The Great Dao of Longevity Sutra" was somewhat difficult. Although it disturbed the Ten Thousand Daos of heaven and earth, he was also backfired by the power of Ten Thousand Daos.

If he wants to perform secret techniques of this level without getting hurt, his cultivation must probably be raised to the quasi-emperor level.

However, the power of this powerful secret technique evolved from the "Four Sky-Splitting Strikes" achieved the effect that Li Zhi expected.

"Four strikes to split the sky, four strikes combined into one, all the ways overturned."

This is the second secret method of protecting the Dao recorded in the Four Extremes Volume of "The Great Dao and Longevity Sutra" created by Li Zhi. It is also the secret method he prepared in advance so that he can break through all the Daos in the future.

When this secret technique is upgraded from "Ten Thousand Daos Overturned" to "Ten Thousand Daos Destroyed", that will be the day when Li Zhi will be able to penetrate all the Daos of heaven and earth.

However, if he wants to upgrade "The Overthrow of Ten Thousand Daos" to "The Destruction of Ten Thousand Daos", his cultivation would probably have to reach the ninth level of the Quasi-Emperor or even another level of enlightenment.

It turns out that the Saint-level Dao Fruit is not enough to compete with the myriad ways of heaven and earth.

No matter whether it is the Sage King Dao Fruit or the Great Sage Dao Fruit, if one wants to compete with the Ten Thousand Daos of Heaven and Earth, in the end only his arm will explode while the Ten Thousand Daos will remain unharmed.

Just causing chaos in the laws of nature in such a small area was enough to make Li Zhi unable to withstand the backlash of the laws of nature.

Fortunately, the secret technique was created by him himself, and his control over it was far more handy than the secret techniques recorded in other imperial scriptures, and he did not suffer any injuries from the backlash of the Ten Thousand Daos.

If you leave a wound, it will be troublesome.

Not everyone is like Ye Fan who can become a being above the Dao of Sacrifice in the future.

Any being above the Dao of Sacrifice, whether standing in that realm in the future, in the past, or now, is the same.

This means that they can no longer be killed by others when they are weak.

Therefore, Ye Fan was able to make rapid progress in his cultivation even after suffering a Taoist injury, but others were not able to do so.

As we all know, when a cultivator's cultivation is not sufficient, if he creates scriptures or secret techniques that exceed the limit, it will often lead to backlash and he can easily hurt himself.

Ye Fan's Dao injury was left when Tianzun Lunhai created the Four Extreme Volumes of "The Heavenly Emperor Sutra".

Fortunately, the secret method created by Li Zhi was evolved based on the "Tao Longevity Sutra".

The magical power cultivated in "The Great Way of Longevity Sutra" is a combination of hardness and softness, and it has extraordinary vitality. It is not an explosive scripture that pursues supreme combat power like "Nine Revolutions of Heavenly Art" of the Fighting Saint Ape clan. In terms of self-cultivation and life maintenance, it has incomparable advantages over other ancient scriptures.

Therefore, Li Zhi completely recovered after only one month of recuperation in the starry sky.

At the same time, his cultivation level has stabilized at the middle seventh level of the Saint King, without any sense of vanity.

Even the strength of the physical body, the soul, and the laws of the universe have almost all reached a level infinitely close to that of the chaotic body.

At the same time, Li Zhi also understood that as long as he did not have the ability to defeat Wan Dao Cheng Emperor.

His three indicators can only be infinitely close to the chaotic body but cannot be truly equated with the chaotic body.

It’s not that Li Zhi didn’t work hard enough, but that the world didn’t allow it.

The innate chaotic body is the ultimate physical existence that the universe can allow to appear today.

There is no innate physique that can transcend the chaotic body.

The innate holy body and the Taoist fetus are just on par with the chaotic body.

The innate holy body and Taoist fetus possessed by the Great Emperor Wu Shi actually makes up for the gap between the holy body and the chaotic body in terms of the soul's affinity with all the Taos.

Therefore, the innate holy body and the Taoist fetus can be equated with the chaotic body.

However, the innate holy body and Taoist fetus are not truly innate constitutions. Strictly speaking, it is an artificial acquired constitution, and is no different from the constitutions born after all great emperors attain enlightenment.

Therefore, among all the innate physical conditions, the chaotic body is undoubtedly ranked first in the universe.

Is there a physique in the world that is stronger than the chaotic body? Yes, it does.

However, that is the physique possessed by strong people at the level of Heavenly Emperor. In essence, it is not the physique that is strong, but the Heavenly Emperor that is strong.

In the eyes of the Universe Demon Sea, after Li Zhi's soul and the Great Dao completed a gorgeous transformation, he realized that no matter how much he practiced, as long as he did not become an emperor, his physique would not be comparable to that of a true innate chaotic body.

Li Zhi's physical body, soul, and great Dao can be ninety-nine point nine hundred and ninety-nine, but before he achieves enlightenment, he will never be able to break through to one hundred.

Although mathematically, 0.999999999… and 1 are equal.

But in this limited world, there is still a slight gap.

At the same time, Li Zhi also realized that it was easy to improve the various qualities of the body to ninety-nine percent of the chaotic body, but every nine after the decimal point after ninety-nine was not easy.

Put away the distracting thoughts in your mind.

Li Zhi reflected on his current condition again.

The solid physical foundation, the powerful reserves of magic power, the clear and bright state of the soul, the tenacious and immortal avenue, and the close coordination of these aspects can almost allow him to output an attack power comparable to that of a great sage of the first level.

However, this attack power is far from enough in the other side of God.

Next, there will probably be many great sages at the peak of their powers.

Then Li Zhi put away the Taiyin Xuanbing Daotai and sensed Cangming's location.

Not long after, Li Zhi appeared in front of Cangming. "Fellow Daoist Changshou, have you completely recovered?" Cangming asked immediately after seeing Li Zhi, who was in good spirits.

"Thank you, fellow Daoist, for protecting me before." Li Zhi thanked Cangming, and then he found that Cangming's breath was a little unstable, and there was a strange power of law entrenched in his body.

Li Zhi asked: "Are you injured?"

"They are all minor injuries. They are not serious. They will be fine after resting for a period of time." Cangming said.

"Let me heal you first." Li Zhi could see that Cangming's injury was not a minor one at all. If he was allowed to delay, there would be a risk of it evolving into a Taoist injury. The alien law entrenched in his body seemed to be a great sage law.

If his body was not strong enough, he would not have the strength to stand in front of Li Zhi at this moment.

After transferring a magical power emitting a strong aura of immortality into Cangming's body, the alien power of laws that was entrenched in his body was quickly eliminated.

Cangming, feeling relaxed, quickly practiced his profound skills to restore his energy.

Then, Li Zhi asked again: "Who did you fight with? It doesn't seem to be the fish python from before."

"Just when you were in seclusion, the other side of the Gods deep in the ancient hunting area opened. Countless strong men descended here from the ancient mythological road, including many great saints. I was casually injured by a great saint who passed by."

Afterwards, Cangming told Li Zhi everything that had happened in the Mythological Ancient Hunting Area during this period.

He withdrew from the fiercely competitive ancient hunting area because he saw that the battle was too intense. He did not overestimate his own abilities and rush to rob the ancient ship in the sea of ​​suffering that was heading to the other side of the gods.

There were endless battles in the Ancient Hunting Area, and before the other side of the Gods was opened, a great sage died in the Ancient Hunting Area.

"Where is Fellow Daoist Xin Ming? Have you seen him?" After understanding the situation, Li Zhi asked about Xin Ming.

"I don't know where he is. I didn't see him in the ancient hunting area." Cangming shook his head.

Afterwards, the two of them rushed towards the star field where the ancient hunting area was located.

The other side of God has been open for several days.

But the battle in the mythical ancient hunting area is still fierce.

In order to fight for the ancient ship leading to the ancient hunting area, bloody battles followed one after another.

When Li Zhi and Cangming crossed a huge monument in the starry sky, they officially entered the mythical ancient hunting area. The size of the stone monument was comparable to that of a star, exuding an ancient and magnificent aura. There was an ancient charm flowing on it that resonated with people. There were also warning words written in divine script on the ancient monument.

"The creatures in the Ancient Hunting Area are extremely powerful, and the bloodline power of many species is even stronger than mine. However, those ancient beasts at the Great Sage level have already crossed the sea and reached the other side. The Ancient Hunting Area has become relatively safe. But we still have to be careful of the strong men from various species coming from outside."

After entering the mythical ancient hunting area, Cangming introduced the various risks in the ancient hunting area to Li Zhi.

Li Zhi felt the ancient beasts emitting vigorous life energy one after another in the ancient hunting area, and then said: "Don't rush to the other side of the gods, let me find where fellow Daoist Xin Ming is."

Xin Ming was born into a clan of gods, and he must have seen a lot of information about the other side of gods in his clan. If he goes with him, he can help Li Zhi solve many of his doubts.

Afterwards, Li Zhi took out a drop of Xin Ming's divine blood and used a secret method to begin searching for Xin Ming's breath.

But soon, Li Zhi frowned.

"Did something happen to the boy from the God Clan?" Cang Ming asked directly after seeing Li Zhi's reaction.

"It's very likely that he's dead." Li Zhi said.

"Dead? That boy from the God Clan was a master at escaping, how could he die so easily?" Cang Ming asked puzzled. He had chased Xin Ming in several star regions before, but he didn't catch him.

"Let's go and take a look." Li Zhi and Cangming then came to a dark area deep in the ancient hunting area.

Xin Ming's body was found there. His immortal platform was pierced, and his divine blood was drained. Now only a corpse without any vitality was left floating in the boundless void.

"The boy from the God Clan just died like that?" Looking at the haggard Xin Ming, Cangming sighed.

"There are many corpses on the road to immortality. Maybe this is fate."

Looking at Xin Ming's body, Li Zhi also felt infinite emotion in his heart.

Then he chanted the Sutra of Rebirth to see off Xin Ming, who was not satisfied with being an ordinary divine body.

"Let's go, it's time to go hunting." After turning Xin Ming's body into cosmic dust, Li Zhi said to Cangming.

"Go hunting at this time? Don't we go directly to the other side of God?" Cangming asked with some confusion.

"The other side of God is right there, and it won't run away on its own. There is no difference between going there a day earlier or later. Now that we have come to the ancient hunting area of ​​mythology, if we don't go hunting, it would be a shame to the arrangement of the Heavenly Venerable of the mythological era." Li Zhi said with a smile.

Li Zhi knew very well about the various creations that existed on the other side of God.

If you want to make use of those opportunities, you need strong strength as a foundation, otherwise you will only become food for other strong people.

Li Zhi was also very curious about what kind of ancient beasts the Tianzun of the mythological era would raise in the ancient hunting area.

As Li Zhi and Cangming began to wander around the ancient hunting area, they soon saw a sky-devouring beast fighting an ancient beast with wings like a cutlassfish in the starry sky.

"The Sky-Devouring Beast and the Silver-Winged Dragon Fish, why are they fighting?" After seeing this scene, Cangming said in surprise.

The fluctuations of Qi and blood emanating from the two ancient beasts were very special. After observing them for a while, Li Zhi became interested and thought, "The blood of these two ancient beasts looks pretty good. They should be able to be used as the raw materials for the Ten-fold Tonic Soup."

Then, he reached out and grabbed the Sky-Devouring Beast and the Silver-Winged Dragon Fish that were fighting fiercely.

The Sky-Devouring Beast and the Silver-Winged Dragon Fish, which were merely at the saint level, had no room for resistance in front of Li Zhi's sky-covering hand and directly became Li Zhi's prey.

"Fellow Daoist Changshou, are we really going to hunt here?" Cangming asked in surprise when he saw Li Zhi's decisive action. He thought Li Zhi was just talking.

"Since we have come to the mythical ancient hunting area, it would be a wasted trip if we don't hunt here." Li Zhi repeated what he had just said in a good mood.

Li Zhi figured out that this ancient hunting area that appeared in the mythological era should be the Tianzun's animal breeding ground in the mythological era. It can not only be used to train subordinates, but also to provide abundant meat.

When Li Zhi and Cangming went hunting in the ancient hunting area, his guess was verified.

The creatures living in this ancient hunting area not only have strong bloodlines and extraordinary combat capabilities, but their flesh and blood are also a great tonic for other monks.

There isn't even a single species that cannot be eaten by monks.

Whether they are flying in the sky or swimming in the sea, there are always some parts of their bodies that are rich in extremely rich life essence.

After many twists and turns, Li Zhi and Cangming hunted in this ancient hunting area for more than two months.

They actually managed to capture quite a few delicacies, including but not limited to the dragon, magic tiger, fish python, sky-swallowing beast, prison ox, Taiyin magic rabbit, bright Pegasus, golden sheep, magic ape, mountain phoenix, three-headed magic mastiff and dozens of other remnants of the mythological era.

Among them, there are eight prey with cultivation at the Saint King level, and two of them have even reached the Heavenly King level, the pinnacle of the Saint King, namely Dragon Turtle and Golden Chan.

"Fellow Daoist Changshou, there's something a little wrong with the number of beast kings in this ancient hunting area. How could such a desolate star field give birth to so many beast kings, and there are even several ancient beast kings at the great sage level." Cangming showed a hint of doubt.

“This ancient hunting area should be connected to many sources of life. Even if it is not an ancient star of life, it is also a small world in the sky that has been prosperous since ancient times.” After thinking about it for a while, Li Zhi thought of the ancient star of life that was transformed from the Dragon Transformation Secret Realm of Tianzun, which he could not find outside.

Seeing that such a desolate star field could actually give birth to such a large number of beast kings, Li Zhi could conclude that their birthplace should be in the small world of the sky domain transformed from the secret realm of Tianzun Hualong.

Otherwise, given the dryness of this star field, the ancient medicines that drifted out from the other side of God would not be enough to breed such a large number of ancient beasts.

"Do you want to take a look at their nest?" Li Zhi then said to Cangming.

"Do you know where their lair is?" Cangming had searched the souls of the ancient beasts before, but there was no information about their birthplaces in their memories.

All their memories before they grew up and could travel in the starry sky do not exist, as if they were all erased by a mysterious force.

"I have my own way to find those sources of life." Li Zhi said confidently.

"Then let's go and take a look." Cangming was also full of curiosity about being able to steal those ancient beasts.

After all, among those ancient beasts, there are many that are stronger than him. He really wants to know where these powerful beast kings can be born.
