I Can Traverse Multiple Worlds

Chapter 417: Chapter 218: Reunion After Ten Thousand Years

The commotion he caused when he broke through to the Saint Realm was too great. It would have been difficult for anyone not to notice.

Next, he planned to rely on his connection to the Life Seeds to enter the Land of Void, go all out in gathering them, and enhance his strength.

He didn’t know how long this hunt would take.

After all, the Land of Void was vast and boundless. Life Seeds were extremely far apart from one another, and their positions could even change.

To gather them all might take a hundred years, or even longer.

Therefore, before entering seclusion, he needed to make some arrangements first!

For example, matters concerning the White Bone Banner and the refining of evil spirits needed someone else to handle them for him.

Refining evil spirits could also strengthen his Grotto Heaven, physical body, and Great Daoist Nascent Soul.

Although the enhancement wasn’t as great as that from Life Seeds, it was still a method that couldn’t be wasted.

"Senior!"

"Senior, that commotion just now... did you break through to the Saint Realm?!"

It wasn’t surprising at all to these Cultivators that Wang Xiao had broken through to the Saint Realm.

After all, they had witnessed Wang Xiao’s power for themselves; even a Quasi-Saint like the Extreme Yin Ascendant couldn’t last a single exchange against him.

His breakthrough to the Saint Realm was practically a sure thing.

Wang Xiao nodded slightly.

"Yes, I have become a Saint. But it’s nothing to make a fuss about."

"I will be entering seclusion for a period of time. Before I do, there are some matters I need you to handle."

As he spoke, he took out the White Bone Banner and handed it to Yun Yin.

"From now on, whenever you capture evil spirits in your various territories, you can contact Daoist Yun Yin and have them refined into the White Bone Banner."

"If you encounter any evil spirits you cannot defeat, record their location. I will deal with them all when I emerge from seclusion."

Upon hearing this, a Cultivator from the Ten Directions Jungle couldn’t help but ask:

"May I ask how long Senior plans to be in seclusion?"

Wang Xiao said coolly:

"The duration is uncertain. Is there something you need?"

The Cultivator began to explain:

"It’s like this. The Fengluo Dao is holding its Assembly of Myriad Laws in one hundred years. At that time, the leaders of the Ten Directions Jungle from every domain must travel to the Fengluo Domain to participate. Our Cang Mang Domain is a great distance away, so the journey itself would likely take at least sixty years."

"Furthermore, we don’t know who to select to attend. We may need Senior to make the decision!"

’The Assembly of Myriad Laws...’

A flicker of understanding crossed Wang Xiao’s eyes.

He knew that this so-called Assembly of Myriad Laws was held once every two hundred years.

Its purpose was to assess the power of the Ten Directions Jungle in each domain, organize their forces, and initiate wars with other Daos.

All to expand their own influence!

The Fengluo Dao, for instance, frequently clashed with the Celestial Sword Dao.

Fengluo and Xu Muying had fought several times, with no clear victor.

Beyond that, the most important part was the tribute!

During every Assembly of Myriad Laws, the leaders of the Ten Directions Jungle from each domain were required to hand over their respective domain’s Supreme Treasures to the Fengluo Daoist Lord.

"There’s no need to attend such an event."

Wang Xiao shook his head.

He and Fengluo were bound to face off sooner or later.

Rather than go to the Fengluo Dao and enter Fengluo’s territory, it would be better to make Fengluo come find him personally.

"Th-that’s not a good idea, is it?" The Cultivator gulped upon hearing this.

He recalled that a Saint had once been unwilling to attend the Assembly of Myriad Laws.

In the end, that Saint was directly annihilated by the Fengluo Daoist Lord!

Even that Saint’s Sect was completely wiped out!

The Cultivator was worried that if Wang Xiao didn’t go, the entire Cang Mang Domain might be implicated.

"You think it’s not a good idea?!" Wang Xiao shot the Cultivator a glance.

The Cultivator couldn’t help but shudder, nearly falling to his knees as he said in terror:

"Forgive me, Senior! It’s just that this junior feels that if Senior doesn’t go, it might provoke the Fengluo Daoist Lord. You have only just broken through to the Saint Realm. If the Fengluo Daoist Lord decides to hold you accountable, Senior might be in danger."

Wang Xiao said coolly:

"What happens a hundred years from now is not your concern. Just do what you’re supposed to do."

The Cultivator didn’t dare say another word, cold sweat dripping down his back.

"Y-yes, yes. This junior was presumptuous."

Wang Xiao didn’t dwell on it. He gave a few more instructions to Yun Yin and his disciple, then returned to the Quiet Chamber.

After some thought, he directly tore open the void and entered the Land of Nothingness.

While harvesting Life Seeds, he could leave a sliver of consciousness to control his body, but if he encountered any danger, he wouldn’t be able to defend himself.

Therefore, he decided to simply hide his body in the Land of Nothingness.

This Land of Nothingness was vast and boundless, and it also seemed to be connected to the Land of Void.

The chances of encountering danger would be greatly reduced.

’Let’s begin.’

Without further delay, Wang Xiao activated his Grotto Heaven. Surging Star Power enveloped his Great Daoist Nascent Soul.

In an instant, his Divine Will soared infinitely, and then a vast, ethereal space appeared before his eyes.

Following the guidance of this vast space, his Great Daoist Nascent Soul suddenly flew out.

HUMMM—

A flash of light pulsed.

He had returned to the Land of Void once again.

However, this time, upon returning to the Land of Void, he could feel all sorts of faint calls from the unseen world.

As if they were guiding him forward!

This was the connection between Life Seeds.

’The nearest Life Seed is a trillion li away. It will take at least a few months to reach it!’

Wang Xiao silently estimated the distance, activated his Divine Soul, tore through the void, and sped toward it.

If not for his mastery of the Space Great Dao, any other Tier Seven Life form would likely have taken several years to arrive.

Moreover, they would also have to do their best to avoid touching the clusters of light and the Sea of Light, lest they fall into an Illusion Realm, which would slow them down even more.

「Three months later.」

Wang Xiao finally reached the location of the nearest Life Seed and harvested it.

He didn’t immediately have his Divine Soul return. Instead, he continued to sense the locations of other nearby Life Seeds.

Wang Xiao planned to return and refine the Life Seeds after every ten he harvested.

Otherwise, after each harvest, he would have to go back to his original entry point to return his soul.

The efficiency would be greatly reduced!

「A hundred years passed in a flash.」

Inside the Land of Nothingness.

Wang Xiao sat cross-legged in meditation, his palms facing the heavens. His Grotto Heaven began to rumble as immense Star Power surged like a tidal wave.

It blotted out the sky and covered the earth, sweeping across a range of a hundred trillion li!

’An area of one-third of a light year... have I reached the limit?!’

Wang Xiao frowned.

After these hundred years of harvesting and refining a massive number of Life Seeds, Wang Xiao’s Grotto Heaven had long since surpassed the Real World in size, reaching an area of one-third of a light year.

However, this size seemed to be a bottleneck.

Wang Xiao felt that if he tried to expand it any further, his Great Daoist Nascent Soul and physical body would be unable to bear the strain and would be on the verge of collapse.

’The current strength of my physical body and Great Daoist Nascent Soul is actually insufficient to support a one-light-year Grotto Heaven. I need to continue strengthening them.’

’Moreover, the planetary consciousness can no longer keep up with the Grotto Heaven’s expansion speed!’

Wang Xiao’s brow furrowed.

Although his Grotto Heaven had now reached an area of one-third of a light year, in reality, only about one-fifth of a light year of it had been fused with the planetary consciousness.

Although it was far stronger than the Real World, it was still a long way from reaching the Grotto Heaven’s true limit.

The ideal situation would be to possess a Grotto Heaven with an area of one light year.

At the same time, the planetary consciousness should also be able to control that one-light-year Grotto Heaven.

Only then could the Grotto Heaven achieve balance!

Otherwise, it could not be considered a perfect Grotto Heaven.

’It seems I have two things to do now. First, refine more planetary consciousness. Second, continue to increase the strength of my physical body and Great Daoist Nascent Soul, striving to make them capable of supporting a one-light-year Grotto Heaven!’

Wang Xiao mused.

He formed a Seal with his hands, and his Great Daoist Nascent Soul flew out once more. He planned to harvest one more Life Seed to keep as a spare before returning to the Real World.

HUMMM!

Soon, Wang Xiao arrived in the Land of Void with practiced ease. After sensing his surroundings for a moment, he headed straight for the nearest Life Seed.

「One year later.」

Wang Xiao smoothly arrived at the Life Seed’s location.

He was just about to move forward and harvest it.

SHIING!

A surging torrent of sword light, like a waterfall or a sea, brimming with chilling killing intent, descended from the sky and blocked his path.

Immediately after, a somewhat cold voice drifted over:

"I spent a year searching for this Life Seed. Take another step forward and you’ll forfeit your life!"

Wang Xiao couldn’t help but look up. A thousand li away, he saw a woman with a sharp sword strapped to her waist, wreathed in sword light, flying in his direction.

’Xu Muying...’

A flicker of recognition crossed Wang Xiao’s eyes.
