Family cultivation of immortality: from Fairy Cat Valley to the Nine Divine Realms

“Exactly.” Xuanweizi nodded. “That boundary point has relatively calm void turbulence and natural spatial concealment characteristics. It is located in the middle of the nine divine domains and the main body of the Xuanxu Great World, which are both more than six hundred years away from it.”

"I ordered the fleet to halt and selected a group of elite cultivators to disembark. They were led by Tian Yanzi, a ninth-order array master from my realm. They carried a large amount of materials and left behind a ninth-order array plate, where they began to build the second ninth-order teleportation array base."

He counted on his fingers: "Now that six hundred years have passed, with Tianyanzi's mastery of formations and the resources I reserved, the teleportation array for that boundary membrane stronghold is most likely already completed."

Jiao'er's clear, cold voice rang out: "Fellow Daoist Xuanweizi still has one array plate left. If we can establish a corresponding ninth-order teleportation array here, in the Nine Divine Realms..."

“Then,” Xuanweizi continued, “through these two array plates and the arrays at both ends, we can establish a two-way passage from the Nine Divine Realms to that boundary membrane stronghold, and then from the stronghold back to the Xuanxu Great Realm! The insurmountable barrier will become a thoroughfare, and resources, personnel, and information can flow efficiently between the two realms!”

"Just establishing a ninth-order teleportation array requires an enormous amount of immortal materials, especially special materials for stabilizing space and supporting interdimensional laws. We don't have much left, and as for array masters..."

Zhang Xuan spoke directly: "As for immortal materials, our Nine Realms have reaped considerable spoils from two great battles. Even if we give up everything, we may still be able to gather enough. As for array masters, Zhang Dawu of our realm is now close to the ninth level in array mastery. In recent years, he has made great progress in comprehending the array classics of the Three Pure Immortal Realms."

"Furthermore, I have recently gained some insights into the art of formations, and perhaps I can try to break through to the ninth level. With the combined strength of the two of us, it is not impossible to give it a shot!"

"Excellent!" Xuanweizi clapped his hands in praise. "Fellow Daoist Zhang is indeed extraordinary in his courage. Our Xuanxu Realm will certainly do our utmost to help. We can also replenish some of the top-tier array materials we brought on this trip."

He changed the subject, his expression becoming serious: "In addition, we have an emergency channel for the small-scale transmission of critical supplies and information."

Zhang Xuan immediately thought, "Senior means...Sacred Body Resonance?"

Xuanweizi was slightly surprised, but then he understood: "Fellow Daoist Zhang is quite perceptive. Indeed, among the cultivators I brought on this trip, there is a Nascent Soul disciple named Yun Che, who possesses the rare Profound Void Sacred Body."

"This sacred body can resonate with Minghe, another person in my ancestral land who also possesses this sacred body, beyond space. The two can expend a large amount of their essence to transmit a small portion of immortal materials or messages through the resonance of their sacred bodies."

Zhang Xuan thought of the special connection between Hei Zi and the demonic fetus.

However, Kuroko and the Demon Child have reached the peak of their fusion, with a stable and highly efficient connection.

Yun Che and Ming He are only at the Nascent Soul stage, and their sacred bodies are not fully developed. Each transfer not only has extremely limited size and weight of the items, but also requires both of them to undergo long periods of seclusion to recover their depleted essence, ranging from several years to several decades.

It comes at a high cost, but it's the only quick way to communicate right now.

Jiao'er nodded slightly: "Something is better than nothing. We can use them to deliver the most urgently needed supplies and intelligence."

“Exactly,” Xuanweizi said. “In fact, before arriving in your domain, we had already had several limited communications with the Xuanxu Great Realm through Yun Che. And just a few days ago, Yun Che received another message from Minghe.”

His expression suddenly turned serious, and he said, word by word, "The content is of utmost importance, and it is another important matter that I am eager to discuss with you all."

Zhang Xuan's heart skipped a beat: "Could it be... the movements of the Three Pure Immortal Realms and the Abyss of Primordial Demons?"

Xuanweizi nodded heavily: "The information from Minghe was forcibly deduced and calculated by our Zhou Tian Jian Zheng, Dongxuan Shizun, using the power of the late-stage Golden Immortal Great Dao Transmission, combined with the assistance of the Tian Jian Yi, at the cost of a hundred years of his lifespan. It is highly credible."

"The divination indicates that within a hundred years, the allied forces of immortals and demons, jointly dispatched by the Three Pure Immortal Realms and the Primordial Demon Abyss, will surely arrive at the Nine Divine Realms! Their main purpose is to collect the offering materials for the next ten thousand years from my Xuanxu Great Realm, and incidentally... to carry out the order to cleanse and annihilate the Nine Divine Realms."

He paused, then uttered the number that made everyone's hearts stop:

"The scale of this allied forces far exceeds that of the past, with a total of eight Golden Immortals and two hundred and eighty True Immortals."

"Eight Golden Immortals...two hundred and eighty True Immortals..."

There was deathly silence in the hall.

Currently, the Nine Divine Realms only have one Golden Immortal, Jiao'er, and fewer than ten True Immortals.

This is a world of difference, a blatant crushing defeat!

Xuanweizi broke the silence, his tone resolute: "A hundred years is the most time we have. We must open a teleportation channel between the two realms within a hundred years so that Master Dongxuan and even some of our realm's elites can come to our aid directly! Otherwise, the Nine Divine Realms... will be in grave danger!"

A terrifying light flashed in Zhang Xuan's eyes as he said, "A hundred years... then let's use these hundred years to forge a path to survival!"

He turned abruptly, looked at the crowd, and spoke in a voice as firm as iron:

"The ninth-tier teleportation array shall begin construction immediately, and all nine divine realms shall enter a state of highest combat readiness!"

You Wuyai and the others solemnly cupped their hands in greeting: "Good!"

Hundreds of carefully selected high-level array masters, under the command of Zhang Dawu and Zhang Xuan, began refining a ninth-order teleportation array day and night.

The earth's fire veins were forcibly guided here, and hundreds of refining furnaces simultaneously spewed out raging flames, melting the incomparably hard immortal metal into a liquid state.

The array masters used their divine sense as a pen and spiritual energy as ink to inscribe intricate composite runes.

Furthermore, cultivators skilled in spatial manipulation carefully guided strands of the pure spatial principles that had been extracted, injecting them into the pre-designated array cores...

In order to buy time, the ninth-order grand formation was crafted in the Time-Space Secret Realm.

The entire secret realm was bustling with activity, yet orderly and efficient.

Top combatants such as You Wuyai, the Ninth-Order Ancient Whale, Yu Xuan, and the Heavenly Eclipse Ancestor spent most of their time, apart from necessary seclusion to consolidate their strength, deducing tactics and practicing battle formations.

More True Immortal Puppets were crafted to practice various combined attack formations such as "Three Talents Slaying Immortals," "Five Elements Revolving," and "Seven Stars Locking Souls."

Jiao'er often had secret talks with Xuanweizi and Yuheng Immortal Lord to deduce the possible supernatural abilities and cooperation methods of the eight Golden Immortals.

The entire Nine Divine Realms are like a bowstring being drawn taut to its limit.

Time flies, and thirty years have passed.

The Immortal Gourd Realm's spatial-temporal secret realm has now been completely transformed into a giant workshop.

Hundreds of array base towers stand tall, their bodies inscribed with dazzlingly complex runes, and various colored crystals floating atop them emanating Daoist energy fluctuations of different attributes.

In the center, the dark silver array core floated, slowly rotating, like the heart of the entire array.

The construction of the ninth-order teleportation array has reached the most crucial stage of fusing the Dao principles.

On the central platform, Zhang Xuan and Zhang Dawu stood facing each other.

The central ninth-order array plate, composed of tens of thousands of miniature runes, slowly rotated.

All the array masters held their breath and gazed up at the high platform.

Success or failure depends on this.
