Life span plundered, I became a detective and achieved immortality

A glimmer of anticipation flashed in Su Mo's eyes. After over 80 billion years of hard work, the time had finally come to test his achievements. If the "Hongmeng Wuliang Zhenxian Sutra" could help him break through the second level of perfection and push his cultivation to the realm of a third-grade Zhenxian, and with the support of 1,500 illusory spiritual bodies, he would be confident that he could even fight a sixth-grade Zhenxian, and would be able to deal with the Zhenxians of the Black Yao Clan.

The Quasi-True Immortals of the Nine Slave Clans knew far more about the Obsidian Clan than the Golden Lion, a seventh-rank Celestial Immortal. After searching the soul memories of 124 Quasi-True Immortals, he had a good grasp of the Obsidian Clan's details: the most visible one was a fourth-rank True Immortal, and even if there were hidden ones, a fifth-rank True Immortal was practically the limit. As for sixth-rank True Immortals, they were practically legendary in remote star regions like the Cangling Sea, the ancient immortal realm. At least those 124 Quasi-True Immortals, having lived for dozens, if not hundreds, of cosmic epochs, had never heard of any immortal clan in the Cangling Sea boasting a sixth-rank True Immortal.

The next second...

Su Mo waved his hand, and the void in front of him suddenly cracked, collapsing layer by layer like broken glass. In the violent turbulence of space, a small world of chaotic color condensed and took shape at a speed visible to the naked eye.

This small world is not huge, less than ten thousand miles in radius, but it is extremely stable. The world barrier is filled with chaotic airflow and is indestructible. Even a first-grade true immortal cannot easily shake it with all his strength.

"Whoosh..."

With a slight movement, Su Mo stepped into the center of the small world. Immediately afterwards, the power of time surged around him, rippling out like a tidal wave, and the speed of time in the entire small world instantly soared to three thousand times the speed of time.

Soon, a quasi-true immortal with a wolf head and a human body, covered with black hair, bound by a golden light chain, appeared above the heart of the universe in the center of the natal cosmic sea, which was larger than a large cosmic river.

The quasi-true immortal struggled in agony, his wolf howls resounding through the universe. His sharp claws, comparable to the most precious treasures of a quasi-true immortal, left traces of afterimages in the air, but he was unable to break free from the restraints. The golden light chain tightened and tightened, embedding deeply into his flesh, spilling out strands of black blood.

Streams of extremely pure power of the origin of the universe surged out from his body like a rushing river, passing through the heart of the universe and transforming into countless streams of light, which continuously flowed into Su Mo's limbs and bones.

It swiftly moved throughout his body, sending joyful hums through cells wherever it passed, eventually merging into every single one. The barrier of the cellular universe sea, which had previously ceased expanding, shattered once again, and the entire cellular universe sea expanded in all directions at a terrifying speed. Countless new cellular universes sprouted within the newly expanded area like mushrooms after rain, creating miniature visions of the birth and death of the starry sky and the cycle of all things, making his immortal body even more unfathomable.

......

As spring goes and autumn comes, two chaotic eras pass by silently.

"boom......."

Su Mo's body trembled violently, and a terrifying pressure erupted from him, then receded in an instant. The pressure was so strong that it would make even a first-grade True Immortal tremble with fear and feel despair. The aftermath of the momentary shockwaves shook the entire small world violently, and spiderweb-like cracks appeared in the spatial barrier, as if it would completely collapse in the next second.

Two chaotic eras in the outside world are equivalent to six thousand chaotic eras of hard training in this small world with a flow rate three thousand times faster.

Su Mo's boundless primordial immortal body had finally reached a new level, breaking through to a new realm. However, his face didn't show much joy. Instead, a faint gloom formed over his face, and his brows were slightly furrowed.

The journey from the second entry level of the Hongmeng Wuliang Immortal Body to the minor completion stage had come at a price far exceeding expectations—not only had the essence of the 124 Quasi-True Immortals been exhausted, but also 963 Quasi-True Immortal-level celestial materials and treasures, including eight first-grade True Immortal-level treasures. With the remaining 116 first-grade True Immortal-level celestial materials and treasures, there was little chance that they would support him in forging the second perfect Hongmeng Wuliang Immortal Body.

He raised his hand and waved it, a gentle stream of True Immortal power flowing into the barrier of the small world, slowly smoothing the spreading cracks and stabilizing the turbulent space. Su Mo took a deep breath, suppressing the stagnation and resentment in his heart. With a slight movement of his fingertips, the power of time around him fluctuated again, and the speed of time in the entire small world quietly climbed, finally settling at 3,500 times.

"No matter what, let's devour the remaining resources first."

As soon as he finished speaking, a crimson light streaked through the void. A flaming crimson Immortal Jade, a hundred thousand feet tall and resembling the crystallization of the very essence of fire, appeared above the Heart of the Universe. Scorching immortal patterns streamed down the jade's surface, emitting an aura powerful enough to incinerate even a celestial being. As soon as it appeared, it was enveloped by the suction emanating from the Heart of the Universe, disintegrating and melting.

......

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, five chaotic eras have passed.

Time has flowed in the small world for nearly 20,000 chaotic epochs. Su Mo has always been immersed in cultivation. Fairy light flows around his body and his aura becomes more and more condensed.

Suddenly, Su Mo's body shook, and his aura rose again, becoming several times stronger than before. The Hongmeng Wuliang Immortal Body successfully broke through to the second level of perfection. The number of cellular universes in each cellular sea increased several times. Each miniature universe was as solid as iron, emitting a heavy pressure.

Then, Su Mo's tightly closed eyes slowly opened, and a hint of loss flashed in his eyes.

As he expected, just by being promoted to the Great Accomplishment Realm, he had devoured and refined seventy-three first-grade True Immortal-level treasures of heaven and earth. If he wanted to go one step further and break through to perfection, there would only be forty-three first-grade True Immortal-level treasures of heaven and earth left, which was totally impossible.

......

Soon, two more chaotic eras passed.

With a "puff", the last first-grade true immortal-level treasure - the Earth Source Crystal exhausted its last bit of original power, completely shattered, turned into powder, and dissipated in the natal universe sea.

Sure enough, as Su Mo expected, it only allowed his Hongmeng Wuliang Immortal Body to take a step towards the second level of perfection. If he wanted to break through successfully, he would need at least one hundred and seventy or eighty first-grade true immortal-level treasures.

"Although it's not fully accomplished, it should be enough to fight against the Obsidian Clan." Su Mo muttered after feeling the power in his body. With the cultivation of a perfect True Immortal in the Second Heaven, coupled with the second major achievement of the Hongmeng Infinite Immortal Body, his combat power is enough to fight against a True Immortal of the early stage of the third rank. His Lingxu Illusionary Body is a little worse, but it is still better than most of the quasi-third rank True Immortals. Once 1,500 Lingxu Illusionary Bodies work together to set up the Thousand Gods Formation, it will be enough to compete with a True Immortal of the fifth rank. Besides, he doesn't want to go to war with the Obsidian Clan, he just wants to break out and leave the Yunguan Continent.

He just didn't believe that such a precious place for the younger generation to train could be guarded by all the true immortals of the Obsidian Clan.

"Now we just have to wait for four Chaos Eras before the Trial of the Prodigy begins."

......

Time passed as Su Mo waited, one chaotic era after another passed. The mountains and rivers of the Yunguang Continent slowly changed over the years. The remaining members of the nine slave tribes also accumulated strength in hatred, waiting for the destined "Judgment Day".

After four chaotic eras.

"Boom..."

A deafening roar came from the sky above the Yunguang Continent, as if an ancient giant beast had awakened from its slumber. The entire continent shook violently, as if it was about to be overturned.

The mountains shook, and the snow on the peaks fell; the snow peaks collapsed, and huge ice blocks smashed into the plains; the plains cracked into spider-web-like deep grooves, and the black cracks were bottomless; even the magma gushing from the crater was shaken back into the sky, turning into a rain of fire, dyeing half the sky red.

Invisible energy ripples spread outwards from the center of the continent. Wherever they passed, the original power of heaven and earth became violent, like boiling water, causing the circulation of the cultivator's own original power to become somewhat sluggish.

Almost at the same moment when the vibration sounded, all the members of the nine slave tribes scattered around the Yunguang Continent raised their heads at the same time, their gazes cast into the void like torches, their eyes burning with raging hatred and resentment, which was the deep hatred accumulated from being enslaved for hundreds of cosmic epochs.

The terrifying murderous intent was like a materialized wave that surged and rose wildly above the tribe, converging into an icy aura that was enough to freeze the sky.

"A thousand Chaos Ages have passed, and those bastards of the Obsidian Clan are coming again."
