765 Ghost Childs Primordial Spirits of Three Separations (1/2)

Earthly Immortals were also known as Great Emperors.

Since antiquity times, Earthly Immortal was a synonym of Great Emperor. When one's cultivation reached the Earthly Immortal Realm, he earned the title Great Emperor.

However, since the Heaven Realm from that era disappeared and the Void Immortal Realm lost touch with the Void Universe, Earthly Immortals were numbered. Only less than 10 Earthly Immortals appeared over the past 810,000 years.

The Patriarch of the Eastern Thunder Sect was among the last practitioners.

With his strength, it would prove elementary to exterminate the Devil Tribe that came from the Devil Realm and close the entire transmitting channel in the shortest time. However, for the Eastern Thunder Sect, the loss of this action outweighed the gain.

In today's Void Universe, an Earthly Immortal represented the ultimate power, like the nuclear weapon from Zhou Bao's previous life. It represented an unmatched power of shock and awe. Mighty as the Holy Alliance was in the Void Universe, an Earthly Immortal ranked with the strongest combat capability.

Except for the super influence Holy Alliance, only the top 10 macro worlds possessed Earthly Immortals. Other macro worlds just had Immortals at the peak level as their strongest combat capability.

In the Void Universe, the Eastern Thunder World held limited power. It served merely as a macro world situated at the Easternmost Land. In the Void Universe where worlds were as numerous as the sands of the Ganges, it was just so ordinary.

However, it actually possessed an Earthly Immortal! That meant it became one of the most powerful influences along with the Eastern Thunder Sect.

That was an undisputed fact. Any Earthly Immortal could refine his own macro world, and once triumphant, he could destroy a macro world without much effort.

Except for another Earthly Immortal, otherwise, no matter the numbers of Immortals, none could combat an Earthly Immortal.

However, the Eastern Thunder Sect now faced a special situation.

Their Patriarch just entered the Earthly Immortal Realm and still needed a long time, at least thousands of years, to consolidate his cultivation. If he used his macro world at this point, he would exhaust much more time to do that. Furthermore, if he were careless and damaged his foundation, his macro world be imperfect. He then had to risk spending tens of thousands of years to repair it. In that case, he lost more than he gained.

Therefore, instead of bothering their Earthly Immortal, the Eastern Thunder Sect would rather conduct a blood sacrifice, at the cost of a hundred million practitioners, to summon a God or a Demon to get through this crisis. For them, it was worthwhile to sacrifice all the practitioners in the Eastern Thunder World because they believed an Earthly Immortal recouped their losses.

Moreover, that Earthly Immortal served as their ace in the hole. He only played the biggest role when he remained in hiding.

Now, however, their plan leaked ahead of schedule. Given their strength, it was not too difficult to suppress a hundred million practitioners but was nearly impossible to force them to stay where they were obediently to activate that huge altar.

Every practitioner understood what the blood sacrifice meant. Once it started, all their spirits, essence, and blood would be engulfed by the God or Demon it summoned and they could not be reincarnated forever. However, if they died in battle, as long as there was a wisp of the remaining soul, they could be reborn again or possess another's body. After weighing the two consequences, they surely rather die in battle than give in and be sacrificed.

Hence, the Eastern Thunder Sect was in trouble now.

They probably journeyed for wool and came home shorn. Zhou Bao spread the news joyfully because he foresaw this outcome.

And he almost thought he succeeded.

He did not alert until the Ghost Child reminded him again.

The aura of an Earthly Immortal!

The Ghost Child sensed the aura of an Earthly Immortal when the Thunder Capital plunged into utter chaos, and that was definitely not a good thing.
