Under normal circumstances, the minimum requirement for a Tribulation Transcendent to nurture an immortal body would be one hundred Immortal Yuan Stones.
But Chen Yi was no ordinary Tribulation-stage cultivator, and his clones were no ordinary clones either. Thus, his minimum requirement was even higher—at least one hundred and twenty Immortal Yuan Stones to start with.
After all, his clones had a unique origin. They weren’t nourished by the native spiritual energy of the Purple Star Continent but were instead generously sponsored by the Immortal Ascension Tribulation!
One must understand that after enduring the long passage of time, the Purple Star Continent was no longer what it once was. Given its current world tier, it could barely sustain three Tribulation-stage cultivators—how could it possibly support Chen Yi’s forty-nine One-Star Clones?
Fortunately, the Immortal Ascension Tribulation—this old friend of his—could endlessly supply terrifying thunderous power, and Chen Yi was exceptionally skilled at refining this heavenly lightning into the purest primordial energy!
The only downside was that while the thunderbolts descended by the Immortal Ascension Tribulation were of an extremely high grade, they were entirely composed of destructive force. At best, Chen Yi could reverse them into vibrant creative energy, which still didn’t meet the conditions for nurturing an immortal body.
This was precisely why he needed to seek ordinary immortal spiritual resources to nurture his immortal body—and in far greater quantities than an average Tribulation-stage cultivator.
Had it not been for the emergence of the chat group, he truly wouldn’t have known where to find so many Immortal Yuan Stones for cultivation, given the barrenness of the lower realm.
Now that his ammunition was fully stocked, Chen Yi immediately immersed himself in refining his clones!
......
Time flew by, and half a month passed in the blink of an eye.
With an ample supply of Immortal Yuan Stones, forty-six One-Star Clones achieved the Great Completion of their immortal bodies!
The initial advantage of the first three clones that had undergone immortal transformation was completely erased. Once all clones reached the same level, they naturally merged into a seamless whole, allowing Chen Yi’s true self to control them with a single thought—no longer would there be instances of clones developing their own ideas.
Simultaneously, the inner worlds of the forty-nine clones began circulating and generating their own spiritual essence, feeding it back to the true self!
In an instant, Chen Yi felt the traces of erosion left by the power of time on his body completely vanish. Moreover, the vast spiritual essence formed a thick barrier, isolating the power of time from affecting him!
In essence, as long as his clones’ immortal bodies didn’t degrade, he would no longer age, achieving a unique state of immortality!
[Ding! Detected that your strength has increased. Combat power data updated to: 1,800,000,000 (1.8 billion).]
The chat group’s notification sounded promptly, accurately measuring the combat power of the clones he was currently inhabiting.
At the same time, the Heavenly Dao of the Purple Star Continent, which had been observing the situation, immediately sent a greeting.
"Brother, you’re amazing! I suddenly feel like I’m back in the game too. How about we give it another try? I’m ninety percent confident I can reforge the Secondary Immortal Dao Laws!"
Chen Yi ignored it, continuing to focus on comprehending the changes in his clones.
A short while later...
"Hmm, the clones’ base attributes have improved significantly after nurturing their immortal bodies. If I fuse them into a Four-Star Immortal Clone... it should increase from possessing sixty percent of my true self’s strength to about eighty percent. Still not enough..."
"It seems I’ll have to find a way to break through the limit of forty-nine and attempt synthesizing a Five-Star Immortal Clone!"
Chen Yi’s true self gazed into the distance, his will instantly traversing endless space and arriving at the two One-Star Immortal Clones guarding the cosmic void.
Half a month had passed since the Mother of Calamity had retreated into the spatial rift. During this time, it had emerged once, but it was overly cautious—sacrificing two mature Abyssal Demons as a distraction before slipping back into hiding.
But now that its hiding place had been exposed, how much longer could it last?
It was nothing more than a trapped rat!
Had the spatial rift not been so complex, with even the two One-Star Immortal Clones taking turns to search inside and finding nothing, the Mother of Calamity would have already been brutally slaughtered!
But while it could hide for a while, it couldn’t hide forever!
Now, Chen Yi sought a way to break through the limit of forty-nine, and the Mother of Calamity—capable of splitting into countless Abyssal Demon clones—was an excellent reference!
Even if it stubbornly chose to wither away inside the spatial rift, Chen Yi would send all forty-nine of his immortal clones to dig it out, inch by inch!
Dead or alive, he would find it!
Still, a live specimen held far more value than a corpse. Unless absolutely necessary, Chen Yi didn’t want to push it to the brink, lest it self-destruct into nothingness and leave him with nothing to study.
With this in mind, Chen Yi pondered for a moment before stepping forward and transmitting his voice into the spatial rift:
"I know you can hear me. You’re barely holding on, aren’t you? Let’s make a deal. Tell me everything I want to know, and I’ll ensure your spirit remains intact, allowing you to reincarnate on the Purple Star Continent."
Hearing this, the Mother of Calamity fell silent.
It truly was on its last legs. It had just devoured its last mature Abyssal Demon as sustenance, buying itself a mere two and a half hours of additional spiritual energy.
If it continued hiding, it wouldn’t need Chen Yi to act—it would perish on its own.
Should it take the deal?
At the very least, this monster had some credibility.
Could it trust him?
Could it?
After a long hesitation, its severely weakened body ultimately made the decision for it.
"Swear on your Dao Heart!"
A hoarse voice echoed from the spatial rift, its origin unclear and impossible to trace.
Chen Yi remained unfazed, smiling faintly. "Fine, I swear. If you answer my questions, I will ensure your spirit remains intact and allow you to reincarnate on the Purple Star Continent. I will also cease my pursuit of you henceforth. Should I break this oath, may my Dao Heart be tarnished!"
The Mother of Calamity paused before adding, "What about the Heavenly Dao of the Purple Star Continent? You might spare me, but that doesn’t mean it won’t hunt me down, does it? Your sincerity is lacking—I can’t trust you unless you add a condition restraining the Heavenly Dao!"
Chen Yi’s expression darkened. "Don’t push your luck!"
"The advantage is mine now!" The Mother of Calamity stood firm, believing that since this monster had even sworn an oath, his demands must be significant.
"Ah..." Chen Yi sighed softly. "What a pity. It seems I can’t keep you after all."
His greatest concession had been allowing its spirit to reincarnate while remaining neutral afterward—whether it could survive the Heavenly Dao’s wrath would depend on its own abilities. At least there was a sliver of hope.
But since it insisted on courting death, so be it!
Did it really think it was in a position to negotiate?
While a live specimen was preferable, a corpse could still be studied—it would just take more time to decipher.
Having made up his mind, Chen Yi’s true self in the Illusory Star Pocket Realm waved his hand, and all forty-six One-Star Immortal Clones (excluding the one hosting the chat group) immediately mobilized!
Whoosh—
Forty-six streaks of light tore through the sky, shooting toward the depths of the outer cosmos!
This spectacular sight immediately excited the Heavenly Dao of the Purple Star Continent.
The direction Brother Yi’s clones were heading... was the nest of the Abyssal Demons!
For eighty million years, the Abyssal Demons had harassed the Purple Star Continent!
Countless spiritual energies had been plundered, but what the Heavenly Dao remembered most vividly was that they had devoured 9,586,147,280,652 of its children!
Those were beings it had painstakingly nurtured!
It had raged and resisted, but in the end, it could only endure helplessly, powerless against those vile abominations.
But now, with the rise of an overwhelmingly powerful Yi Ge'er nurtured by his own hands, their doom had arrived!
At last! At long last!
Eighty million years of grievances, eighty million years of blood and tears—finally unleashed!
The next moment.
Rain fell from a clear sky spanning thousands of miles, and a rainbow arched through the clouds.
It was weeping, yet also laughter.
u serious?" Chen Feng watched helplessly as his painstakingly trained disciple, fresh off a championship victory, publicly abandoned him. "You had your chance, but you didn’t appreciate it. Now, face the consequences of your choice!" Chen Feng possessed the "Master System," a treasure trove of supreme martial arts techniques, capable of molding ordinary individuals into peerless prodigies. "Legs like yours? A shame not to train in the Crippling Kick." "Ever heard of a palm strike that descends from the heavens?" "Auntie! I see extraordinary bone structure in you—a martial arts prodigy, one in ten thousand." The once-defiant senior disciple, now watching her juniors rise to fame one after another, dominating the internet, was consumed by endless regret.

ey change clothes. Li Chuan contributed all his possessions, only to find that things were not as they seemed. Almost a year after joining, he hadn’t managed to get a single Daoist consort. Thinking he had been deceived, he was approached by a stunning senior fellow disciple who asked if he would like to form a spiritual bond. For those who don’t practice cultivation, they might not know what “forming a spiritual bond” is. Let me put it this way: A long-term relationship is called a “Daoist consort,” while a short-term relationship is known as “forming a spiritual bond.” From then on, Li Chuan discovered the true way to interact with the Yin-Yang Sect’s Daoist consorts. As long as he had enough spirit stones, he could form a spiritual bond with anyone, Whether it’s Senior Sisters, aunts, Daoist consorts of aunts, female elders, Daoist consorts of elders, or even the Daoist consort of the sect leader, anyone can form a spiritual bond as long as there are enough spirit stones.” I've already joined the Yin-Yang Sect, and you're telling me to focus on cultivation? Do you even know what the Yin-Yang Sect is all about?
