Chapter 536: Upgrade
"Master, come out and see." A young boy shouted as he ran towards a cave.
The boy was about fourteen and he had an excited look on his face.
"Stop shouting." A cold voice said and a middle-aged man flew out of the cave.
However, the young man was not deterred.
Instead, he seemed more excited when he saw his master.
"Master, do you know what is going on?" He asked and quickly continued before the middle-aged man could answer him.
"It’s spiritual rain. This has never happened before."
"Mmmm." The middle-aged man nodded and frowned.
The middle-aged man was a mid-stage nascent soul realm cultivator.
He was more than three thousand years old but this was also his first time to see spiritual rain.
Let alone the Cangxing world, he had never encountered spiritual rain in any of the secret realms he had gone to.
"Calm down and meditate. Don’t waste the opportunity." The man reminded and the young boy nodded.
Soon after, the two sat cross-legged and began to meditate.
In the same way, millions of people around the Cangxing world sat-cross legged and took advantage of the unexpected opportunity.
This spiritual rain went on for ten years.
When it was over, the Cangxing world was different than before.
Not only had new spiritual herbs sprouted in many random places, but natural treasures suddenly appeared all over the world.
Other than herbs and treasures, the world’s aura also underwent a major transformation.
Compared to before, the world’s aura was denser and the quality was a lot better.
"Our Cangxing world is no longer a low-grade world." Jiang Yue said with a smile on his face.
"Mmmm." Yu Nianzhen nodded and rubbed his husband’s hair.
After his tribulation, Yu Nianzhen was suddenly teleported to the Cangxing world.
Soon after, the spiritual rain began to fall and the swordsman stayed at the old man’s tomb to wait for Jiang Yue.
Fortunately, he only had to wait for two months before his lover was also teleported back.
After that, the two travelled around and witnessed as the Cangxing world upgraded from a low-grade to a mid-grade world.
"I suddenly feel a sense of accomplishment." Jiang Yue said.
Hearing that, Yu Nianzhen chuckled.
It was not just Jiang Yue who felt a sense of accomplishment.
Since they transmigrated to the Cangxing world, the two worked hard to advance and finally, their efforts not only resulted in personal gain but also world gain.
"Azhen, do you think the old man is okay?" Jiang Yue asked with a worried look on his face.
"Old man Cang is the will of our Cangxing world. Since the world has upgraded, it means the old man has recovered or is at least doing better."
"You are right but why hasn’t he appeared in front of us? Even Uncle Niu is not responding to our call."
Hearing that, Yu Nianzhen frowned.
However, he was not as worried as Jiang Yue.
For some reason, he always felt that nothing was wrong.
"Maybe they have gone into seclusion. They have been suppressed for a long time and it will take some time for them to recover." Yu Nianzhen comforted and then continued before Jiang Yue could say anything else.
"XiaoYue, since we transmigrated to the Cangxing world, we have never had a home." The swordsman suddenly said.
"What do you mean?"
"In the beginning, we stayed in the cave with old man Cang. After that, we joined the Sea Cloud sect but only stayed in the sect for a few years. Mostly, we have been in secret realms or travelling around the Cangxing world."
"You seem to be right..." Jiang Yue muttered with a complicated look in his eyes.
"Our cultivation is at the peak of the immortal realm and we have no equals in the Cangxing world. XiaoYue, why don’t we find a place to settle down?"
"You want to settle down?" Jiang Yue asked with an incredulous look on his face.
This was not because he didn’t want to settle down.
It was because Yu Nianzhen was a cultivation maniac.
Since the immortal realm was not the peak of cultivation, it went without saying that neither he nor Yu Nianzhen would be satisfied with stopping there.
"We received a blessing and our peak immortal realm cultivation is very stable. However, I don’t feel the barrier to the immortal king realm. How about you?"
Thinking about it, Jiang Yue frowned.
Before Yu Nianzhen mentioned it, he hadn’t realised that he couldn’t feel the barrier to the immortal king realm.
"Me too, I don’t feel the barrier." Jiang Yue said and Yu Nianzhen nodded.
"That means we are lacking something and our opportunity to advance to the immortal king realm has not come."
"XiaoYue, I have a plan."
"What plan?" Jiang Yue asked with a look of interest on his face.
"First, let’s find a place to build a home." The swordsman started and Jiang Yue nodded in agreement.
"After we build a home, let’s go to Earth to bring back our relatives."
"Azhen, I also want to go to Earth but I am not confident." Jiang Yue said.
After all, it had been thousands of years since they left Earth.
If they wanted to reunite with their relatives, the matter wasn’t as simple as going back.
First, they needed to locate Earth amongst the many mortal worlds in the vast universe.
After they located Earth, they couldn’t travel to the current time but to a specific point in the past.
Originally, Jiang Yue thought he and Yu Nianzhen would have enough power to go back to Earth after they advanced to the immortal realm.
However, after he became an immortal, he vaguely felt that he didn’t have enough strength to do what needed to be done.
"I know what you mean." Yu Nianzhen said but he had a smile on his face.
"Do you have a way?" Jiang Yue asked when he saw the smile on his lover’s face.
"I have a way." Yu Nianzhen confirmed.
"Quickly tell me." Jiang Yue urged.
Unfortunately, Yu Nianzhen was in a playful mood and couldn’t help but want to tease his husband.
"Guess."
"You..." Jiang Yue glared at the person and angrily punched his shoulder.
"I guarantee you can figure it out if you think about it a little." Yu Nianzhen said and Jiang Yue fell into thought.
"Have you mastered the dao of space and time?" Jiang Yue asked.
After all, they both fell into an epiphany during their tribulation.
Thinking about it, Jiang Yue felt the swordsman must have comprehended the mystery of space and time.
"In the sword tower, I comprehended a space-related sword intent. Unfortunately, this background was not enough to master the dao of space and time during the tribulation epiphany." Yu Nianzhen lamented.
Although his understanding of space and time deepened during the epiphany, the mastery was simply not enough for their current needs.
"I am the same." Jiang Yue nodded.
Compared to Yu Nianzhen, Jiang Yue’s understanding of space and time was deeper.
However, even with the tribulation epiphany, his mastery didn’t reach the level needed to go back to a past Earth.
"Is it a weapon?" Jiang Yue asked but then shook his head in denial.
He and Yu Nianzhen entered the transformation pools at the same time.
Before then, they had always been together so he naturally knew what weapons his husband had.
However, he soon thought of something and looked at Yu Nianzhen.
"Did you get it in the two months before I was teleported back to the Cangxing world?" He asked but Yu Nianzhen shook his head.
"It’s not a weapon."
"It’s not a weapon and you haven’t mastered the necessary dao..., what could it be?" Jiang Yue frowned.
Soon after, a trace of enlightenment flashed in his eyes and he questioned the swordsman.
"Azhen, you are not thinking about using a space-time inter-plane teleportation formation, are you?" He asked and quickly continued before his lover could say anything.
"I have already thought about this method but my formation mastery is not up to par. Most importantly, we don’t have the materials to arrange the formation."
"I am not thinking about a formation.’ Yu Nianzhen said with a twinkle in his eyes.
"If not..., do you want to ask old man Cang for help?" Jiang Yue asked with a trace of uncertainty in his eyes.
"No." Yu Nianzhen said and rubbed his husband’s hair with a doting look in his eyes.
"XiaoYue, haven’t you forgotten something?"
"Forgotten what?"
"Isn’t there something that has been bothering me for a long time? Something that was supposed to happen when I broke through to the immortal realm?"
For a moment, Jiang Yue didn’t understand what his lover meant.
However, after thinking about it for a moment, he suddenly remembered something and looked at the swordsman, his eyes filled with curiosity.
"Is it finally possible?" He asked.
Seeing the excited look on his lover’s face, Yu Nianzhen chuckled and nodded.
"Quickly show me." Jiang Yue said and urgently tugged his husband’s arm.
