Chapter 391: Chapter 349: Reincarnating as an Ant, Talent of Time (2)

Moreover, what surprised it greatly was that Qi Ping was far stronger than it had anticipated, with a much higher affinity and control over the power of heaven and earth.

What surprised it even more was that Qi Ping accomplished this with a Golden Core Stage cultivation; such accomplishment is extremely rare even among the Earth Immortals.

"Fellow Demon God!" Qi Ping returned the gesture politely.

A Void Refining Stage expert treated him with such respect, so naturally, he wouldn’t put on airs.

"Mu Nan should have mentioned my purpose to you, right? I am the Sect Protection Beast of the Beast God Sect. Unfortunately, over a hundred thousand years ago, I encountered the reaping of top-tier forces from the Immortal Cultivation Realm, which led to my current state. Now, I hope to be reborn as a demon ant at the initial stage of Qi Refining through a special reincarnation method, but I am not entirely confident in this. Therefore, I need your support with the power of an Earth Immortal..."

"Regardless of success, I will present the supreme inheritance of my Beast God Sect, the ’Insect Scripture,’ and my well-preserved Eight-winged Pi Immortal body, along with all of my memories!"

"The bees you cultivate are likely also nurtured using the Demon Insect Cultivation Manual. The ’Insect Scripture’ contains methods that can elevate a bee swarm from Nascent Soul to Divinity Transformation, Void Refining... even Emperor-level demon insects! I can first make a Heavenly Dao Oath, and then release all my memories to prove it. Would you be willing to aid me?"

After saying all this, the Eight-winged Pi Immortal intensely observed Qi Ping, though it believed Qi Ping would agree, it was still uneasy without hearing a definite answer.

Reincarnation is a heaven-defying method, and even with its Void Refining Stage perfection, it only held a slight confidence. However, with the help of an Earth Immortal who could manipulate the endless power of heaven and earth with utmost affinity, the success rate would increase significantly!

It concerns not only the opportunity to become an Emperor-level demon insect but also the power to seek vengeance for an Emperor-level demon insect!

These two matters are its greatest obsessions currently. As long as they could be accomplished, nothing else matters.

In truth, it wasn’t possible for it to seek help from anyone else. Even with low chances, it could not risk entrusting its life to an unfamiliar party. However, beings like Earth Immortals have always had impeccable reputations...

"Naturally, there’s no problem; Sister Nan has already informed me of everything. I will do my utmost to assist you in your reincarnation. Beyond that, after your reincarnation, I will also help Sister Nan cultivate the reincarnation body to the Void Refining Stage, allowing you to reawaken your memories..."

Sister Nan?

Upon hearing this address, the Eight-winged Pi Immortal immediately realized the close relationship between Qi Ping, the legendary Earth Immortal and descendant of the old Mu-head, and Mu Nan.

Especially hearing Qi Ping personally guarantee his help in cultivating it to the Void Refining Stage and aiding its memory awakening, filled its heart with immense joy.

With the assistance of an Earth Immortal, it was certain! Hahaha, those past enemies, prepare for the return of the Emperor-level Demon God Eight-winged Pi Immortal!

It did not expect such a close connection between Mu Nan and this Earth Immortal, which was the best news for it and further solidified its determination to aid Qi Ping!

"I shall trouble you then!" The Eight-winged Pi Immortal earnestly bowed to Qi Ping.

"No need for such courtesy! This matter benefits everyone, and the Demon Insect Cultivation Manual of the Beast God Sect greatly aided my growth. In some sense, you are also my senior..."

"Fellow Daoist, you truly deserve the title of a rare Earth Immortal, your demeanor is indeed admirable!" the Eight-winged Pi Immortal sincerely praised.

If it were someone else with such power, they would have taken by force long ago. Truthfully, many in the Immortal Cultivation Realm operate in this manner, which is why Eight-winged Pi Immortal dared not entrust its life to others, preferring to bet on a slight chance.

However, after praising, the Eight-winged Pi Immortal’s expression suddenly became serious, and it spoke gravely:

"Has Mu Nan mentioned the external threats to you? Many from above the Immortal Cultivation Realm won’t allow an Earth Immortal to rise..."

...

Subsequently, the Eight-winged Pi Immortal recounted to Qi Ping the powers distribution of the Immortal Cultivation Realm from a hundred thousand years ago, along with secrets about the Beast God Sect and the Star Sea Continent!

It turns out, in ancient times, the Star Sea Continent was once one of the seven great Immortal Cultivation Continents, belonging to the Human Race’s strongest seven Immortal Cultivation Realm continents!

Even the adjacent Forest Sea Demon Realm could only gaze at the back of Star Sea Continent!

But in a legendary war, whose specific details even the Eight-winged Pi Immortal was not privy to, all of the top cultivators of Star Sea Continent perished, and none returned.

Rumor had it, that war involved the Demon Race and Human Race joining forces to annihilate a terrifying scourge force in the Immortal Cultivation Realm. The outcome was unknown to the Eight-winged Pi Immortal or anyone in Star Sea Continent.

Since that battle, all top cultivators of Star Sea Continent were slaughtered!

Only top cultivators from other continents survived.

Although they seemed to have suffered losses as well, it was far better than the total defeat of Star Sea Continent!

The nightmare of Star Sea Continent began at that moment!

Upon learning of the total demise of the top cultivators of Star Sea Continent, multiple Demon Emperors of the Demon Race led numerous demons to invade. The moment those fearsome demons and terrifying Demon Emperors arrived, the legendary grand array of Star Sea Continent shattered shortly, leading to the instant death of countless Immortal Cultivation experts!

Without its strongest guardians, Star Sea Continent was no match for the Demon Race at the Demon Emperor level.

Fortunately, when Star Sea Continent was on the brink of annihilation, other Immortal Cultivation Continents’ Human Race powerhouses arrived successively, forcefully killing a Demon Emperor and scattering the Demon Race’s forces.

This action naturally elicited gratitude from Star Sea Continent’s cultivators.

Little did the people of Star Sea Continent know, this was a continuation of the nightmare... the endless plundering and harvesting of Star Sea Continent’s Power of Creation and Power of the Living gradually began...

Under such dreadful exploitation and ravagement, Star Sea Continent fell from being one of the Human Race’s seven great Immortal Cultivation Continents to a state where only strongholds like Beast God Sect, with Void Refining Stage cultivators, but few Integration Stage cultivators were present.

Numerous cultivators originally hopeful of entering the Mahayana Stage perished successively!

Since then, no Mahayana Stage cultivators have appeared on Star Sea Continent.

However, even having Void Refining Stage cultivators was not the end of Star Sea Road Continent’s decline, as over ten thousand years ago, innumerable terrifying powerhouses descended upon Beast God Sect, exterminating all, leaving only the Eight-winged Pi Immortal to escape with its unique time talent...

What surprised the Eight-winged Pi Immortal even more was that in today’s Star Sea Continent, after more than ten thousand years, it had regressed to such a state.

Not only were the strong dwindling, but infighting was severe, and it had nearly lost the true historical records of Star Sea Continent!

Such heartless destruction, even to the Eight-winged Pi Immortal now, was a cause for dread!

To know, in the era of the Beast God Sect, many still knew parts of the true history! And the infighting was far less severe; many sects from various Great Realms were researching how to facilitate the emergence of more Integration Stage and Qi Refining Stage powerhouses in Star Sea Continent!

Even when Star Sea Continent was one of the seven great Immortal Cultivation Realm continents, its Immortal Cultivation atmosphere and environment were better, with the top levels exploring how to advance Star Sea Continent further, even contemplating ways to cultivate to the legendary Immortality!

Yet all of this changed in that mysterious eradication operation, destroying Star Sea Continent’s prospects, with its fall to such a pitiful state!

At this rate, the entire Star Sea Continent might become a spiritless and worthless Barbaric Realm!

At this point, the Eight-winged Pi Immortal’s gaze was quite downcast; after all, Star Sea Continent was its homeland!

If not for its time talent, even this history might have vanished from Star Sea Continent...

This was also its greatest obsession for surviving to this day, to become an Emperor-level demon insect, to slay formidable foes, and to uncover that hidden history and secrets!
