Book 5: Chapter 9: Purple Firmament Palace
“I recall seeing that the two transcenders who fought were from the Purple Firmament Palace when I first joined the Dimension Administrators Association.”
“Yes. Indeed, the Purple Firmament Palace is a high-level plane. After being eroded by the dimensional sea for a long time, all its laws are especially sturdy. This is particularly suitable for transcenders, who would impose a heavy burden on an ordinary world even without moving. That’s why practically all transcenders stay in the Purple Firmament Palace. The Purple Firmament Palace was initially not named the Purple Firmament Palace—it had no name. Later on, a meddlesome person suggested naming it, and Purple Firmament Palace received the most votes. By the way, Heng`er, are you interested in staying in the Purple Firmament Palace for some time? When I first became a transcender, my foundations were not firm, and I knew little about the Purple Firmament Palace, so I did not dare bring any descendants over. Things are different now. Your ancestor is now an expert among transcenders.”
You are being humble. A person who can beat up two transcenders on a whim is definitely no weakling.
“Never mind that. I feel that with my meager strength, I can’t even compare to an ordinary person there. Furthermore, I will see powerhouses everywhere there. I won’t be used to that.” Although Chen Heng felt intense curiosity about the Purple Firmament Palace, he recalled that his curiosity had already brought him harm several times.
“That makes sense. Then continue cultivating. I’ll bring you there to expand your horizons when you are stronger. Heng`er, you have not converted to cultivation yet because you lacked the crystal. Coincidentally, I placed the sword technique I recently summed up into the crystal. You can take a look when you have time. Of course, you don’t have to cultivate the sword; cultivating your current abilities is a good option, too, as they have strong potential. As long as you cultivate properly, protecting yourself will not be a problem. Furthermore, there is a Will Energy cultivation method that I asked for from other transcenders before I came home. That should be useful to you. As for that visualization technique, don’t cultivate that anymore. It is easy for something to go wrong. I’ll keep worrying if you visualize others, but you can’t endure it if you visualize me.”
“Many thanks, Ancestor. This junior will bear that in mind.”
“Oh, right. Heng`er, pass me the Chen Clan necklace. I’ll modify it.”
“Alright.”
After hearing Chen Xiu’s instruction, Chen Heng did not give it any further thought. He quickly removed the Chen Clan’s ancestral storage necklace, which he had been wearing, and placed it in Chen Xiu’s outstretched hand.
When Chen Xiu received the necklace, he held it between his right index and middle fingers and rubbed its surface.
Chen Heng could see a flowing layer of seven-colored light flash on the necklace’s surface when Chen Xiu rubbed it. It turned from something plain and ordinary into something bright and dazzling, feeling like a powerful divine item. Two seconds later, the flowing light entered the necklace, and the necklace reverted to its plain and simple appearance.
Finally, Chen Xiu returned the necklace to Chen Heng.
“Alright. I placed a few layers of restrictions on the necklace. You can now withdraw it into your body. Furthermore, it will return to your body if it leaves over three meters from you. If you feel your life is in danger, the necklace will automatically launch a counterattack. Transcenders aside, no enemy can survive that. This necklace can activate that attack three times. Each time it exhausts an attack, it will recover one attack per month. Furthermore, you can place the ancestor crystal into the storage space of the necklace. I also placed a small present in the storage space. Take a look later.”
“Thank you for your hard work, Ancestor.” Previously, the ancestral crystal could not be placed in a storage item. Otherwise, it would not have been stolen. Rather, one would have to snatch the necklace to get the crystal.
This was great now; it could be stored in the necklace. As for the small gift, Chen Heng doubted it was simply a small gift.
Look at the small gift Chen Xiu gave Luo Li earlier. Wasn’t it the famous Primal Chaos Bell?
“Alright, alright. It’s time for me to go. This world is at its limits. I’ll go back and think about how to make the Multidimensional World Consciousness Conference’s pockets bleed heavily. I’ll deliver the items when I come again.”
“Ancestor, just keep them for yourself. Didn’t you say those things are very precious?”
“It is precious for people like you who have not transcended. Transcenders can grow stronger only through slow comprehension. Using external items to raise a transcender’s strength is practically impossible.”
“Wait. Ancestor, what about this world consciousness? It’s not retarded, right?”
Chen Heng pointed to the world consciousness, which had been standing there in a daze. What should I do about this world consciousness after Ancestor leaves? Given this appearance, it does not seem very smart. Did something go wrong when Ancestor made this world consciousness?
“Oh! This. Don’t worry. Just give this world consciousness some time to adjust. A newly created world consciousness is like this. It is like needing to warm up before exercising. This world consciousness is not stupid. This is not my first time making a world consciousness; I have done it several times already. During this time, a world consciousness is quite silly; you can try messing with it.”
Chen Xiu glanced at the dazed world consciousness, then looked away.
Your words sound like you have created a lot of world consciousnesses. What exactly have you experienced for you to be so familiar with this?
“Alright, I’m leaving. Heng`er, if you need to contact me, just visualize me. Don’t worry. I’ll protect your Will Energy from getting damaged.”
“Alright. Goodbye, Ancestor.”
After Chen Heng said that, his ancestor disappeared. He could not tell how his ancestor left. He felt sure there had been no spatial fluctuations. In fact, there had been no signs at all; Chen Xiu had simply vanished into thin air. His ancestor lived up to being a transcender, truly impressive.
After Chen Xiu vanished, the initially cautious atmosphere finally eased.
While Chen Xiu was around, the others did not even dare to breathe deeply. Considering the entire conversation, Luo Li spoke once, while the rest did not even venture a word.
The same went for Chen Xiu. Besides gifting Luo Li with the Primal Chaos Bell, he did not even glance at the rest.
After Chen Xiu left, everyone remained silent for a while. Eventually, Chen Heng spoke first.
“Little Li, based on what my ancestor said, you reset the entire world when you self-detonated the crystallization of your time ability, right? Why didn’t you come to look for me?”
Furthermore, according to Luo Li and Mo Qingtong’s conversation that I overheard, they think they both re:lived.
Erm…there can’t be someone so stupid that they do not know the effects of their ability, right?
