Immortality Starts With Diligence(Xianxia Litrpg)

560. An Unexpected Distress Signal, A Plea for Help from Taotie?

Lin Fei knew there were ways to elevate the Dao of the World. One such method was to undergo tribulation. If he could endure the ninth thunder tribulation, and withstand nine heavenly thunders, then the Sea of Origin would pull him into an illusion.

Regardless of the method, it should somehow increase his Dao of the World. But how much it could be elevated was uncertain. Maybe 10%, or perhaps just 1%. Anything was possible.

However, to face the ninth thunder tribulation, Lin Fei was not yet fully prepared. He had to continue preparing, strengthening his power.

"If my particle worlds could birth life, perhaps I could withstand the nine heavenly thunders. Unfortunately, for life to emerge in the particle worlds within my body, it would take an incredibly long time. This is something the dream realm cannot assist with."

Lin Fei took a deep breath. Not expecting life to emerge in his particle worlds anytime soon, he had to find another solution in a True Monarch-level world. He needed to find a True Monarch-level world on the verge of collapse. Whether it was to acquire the world origin of a True Monarch-level world or to obtain the world laws of a True Monarch-level world to enhance the Saber World, He needed a True Monarch-level world on the brink of collapse.

Lin Fei decided to post a long-term task in Great Dream City to find such a world, hoping it would yield some results.

He planned to wait for a year or two. If no True Monarch-level world on the verge of collapse was found within ten years, Lin Fei had another plan. That was to apply to return to the Ancient Continent!

According to the Great Dream Ancestor, the Ancient Continent held great benefits, even immense ones. Significant help for achieving the status of a Martial Ancestor. Of course, this was Lin Fei's last resort. He didn't want to use this method unless absolutely necessary.

Previously, Lin Fei's cultivation was measured in days and months, but now, it had extended to years. He had come to accept the reality. Upon reaching the True Monarch level, the difficulty of cultivation probably increased tenfold or even a hundredfold!

Becoming a Martial Ancestor was indeed not easy. Thus, Lin Fei stopped his arduous cultivation. Instead, he frequently appeared in Ancient City, wandering around, gathering news about various True Monarch-level worlds.

This was, in a way, his "rest." After all, such leisure time was rare.

But this peaceful period didn't last long. Lin Fei's communication stone vibrated.

However, the person contacting him this time took Lin Fei by surprise. After all, he had few "acquaintances" in the Divine Realm, not even more than ten.

"Taotie? Taotie sending me a message is really..."

Lin Fei hadn't expected this. Taotie, whom he had suppressed in the Ancient Continent, and then thoroughly exploited before releasing his avatar. Even if he hadn't killed Taotie's avatar, they could hardly be considered friends.

Taotie might even harbor deep resentment towards Lin Fei. Why would he be sending a message now? And even a distress signal!

"True Monarch Lin, save me, please save me, True Monarch Lin! I've been captured by the Hydra in the All Beasts Alliance. All my avatars couldn't escape their fate; I beg you, True Monarch Lin, considering our past encounters, to save my life. I know some secrets of the Hydra. Not long ago, the Hydra swallowed a fragment of a True Monarch-level world. If True Monarch Lin can defeat the Hydra, you might learn the whereabouts of that shattered True Monarch-level world..."

Taotie's message was straightforward. He seemed to have a good understanding of Lin Fei, or at least, he was always keeping an eye on Lin Fei. He knew Lin Fei had become a True Monarch and was aware that Lin Fei needed a True Monarch-level world. That's why Taotie sent him a distress signal.

"The Hydra?"

However, Lin Fei was not in a hurry. Instead, he remained calm. Setting aside whether the fragment of the True Monarch-level world swallowed by the Hydra was indeed from a shattered world, even if it was a True Monarch-level world on the verge of collapse if even its fragments were consumed, what good could possibly be left in that world? Its world origin was likely plundered already. Moreover, the Hydra was not an ordinary exotic beast.

Lin Fei decided to gather more information. So, he went to Great Dream City To inquire about the Hydra.

Upon asking around, Lin Fei obtained a lot of information about the Hydra. The reason was simple. The Hydra was a notorious figure in the All Beasts Alliance, counted among the top True Monarchs. Its fame was widespread, and many powers had detailed information about it.

The Hydra had nine heads, capable of swallowing heaven, earth, sun, and moon, even whole worlds. It once ravaged the Divine Realm, plundering world origins by directly consuming small worlds. Even uncollapsed small worlds were not safe from its maw.

Terrifying indeed!

Later, the Hydra's actions sparked widespread anger. After all, many powers in the Divine Realm needed small worlds.

For instance, Martial Gods hoped to use the world origin of small worlds to enhance their physical strength for tribulations. Deity Transformation powerhouses also required small worlds' world origins to comprehend the mysteries of the void.

If the Hydra was allowed to keep devouring unchecked, could Martial Gods or Deity Transformation powerhouses withstand it? Wouldn't all the small worlds eventually be consumed by the Hydra?

Thus, even Martial Ancestors personally intervened to slay the Hydra!

Fortunately, the Hydra was a member of the All Beasts Alliance. The progenitor of the All Beasts Alliance intervened to save the Hydra, teaching an agreement with many powers.

After that, the Hydra was forbidden from meddling with small worlds and indiscriminately devouring them. As for True Monarch-level worlds, the Hydra couldn't swallow them unless they were on the brink of collapse.

But True Monarch-level worlds could give birth to True Monarch-level powerhouses, reducing the Hydra's advantage significantly. Nonetheless, the Hydra remained one of the top True Monarch-level exotic beasts in the All Beasts Alliance, even harboring a slim hope of becoming a progenitor.

Taotie being captured by the Hydra was no surprise, causing panic and an immediate distress message to Lin Fei. Now, apart from Lin Fei, Taotie probably couldn't find anyone else with the capability or courage to rescue him. Only Lin Fei!

After understanding this information, Lin Fei pondered.

Should he rescue Taotie or not? Their relationship was nothing beyond mere acquaintance, And the decision would still depend on the benefits. The prospect of gain was crucial.

"The Hydra has swallowed a fragment of a True Monarch-level world. If it really is a world on the brink of collapse, Perhaps this is an opportunity. Anyway, going to the Myriad Beasts Alliance means dealing only with the Hydra. There shouldn't be too much danger."

Lin Fei weighed in his heart. With his current strength, unless a Martial Ancestor or a True Immortal intervened, Lin Fei feared no one. Apart from Martial Ancestors and True Immortals, no one could kill him.

This wasn't arrogance. It was confidence, a sense of security!

"Alright, even if there's only a one percent chance it's a collapsing True Monarch-level world, it's worth a try. Any opportunity, no matter how slight, should not be missed."

Lin Fei had made up his mind. His task had been posted in Great Dream City for so long, But was there any response? None at all!

A collapsing True Monarch-level world was incredibly rare. Thus, Lin Fei had no other methods left to enhance his strength. The Hydra might be his only hope.

Having made his decision, Lin Fei didn't hesitate.

"Boom."

Lin Fei shattered the void in an instant. His figure flickered, stepping into the void passage, traversing the void!
