Chapter 673: Chapter 436: Seeking Worlds, Sword Spirit Heaven!
And the era before that.
How many immortals have accumulated in the entire Jiuzhou Cultivation Realm.
"An interesting little fellow."
"You have the aura of the Five Spirits, the Five Elements on you..."
"Hmm? And the aura of Senior Huihuang?"
A stunning woman in a black dress, with a light veil over her face, appeared before Zhong Heng, her lively eyes curiously observing him.
She bore no trace of any protective Artifact.
She was naturally an immortal from Jiuzhou.
"Zhong Heng of the Five Elements Immortal Sect, greets the Immortal."
Before Zhong Heng could speak, the woman said, "So you’ve already cultivated the Hongmeng Divine Essence... and you even possess three Cosmic Star Pearls..."
"It seems you’re seeking a Lower Realm to refine."
"However, the Lower Realm that Jiuzhou just spawned isn’t suitable for you. You need a nascent world nearby that can be devoured."
Zhong Heng paused slightly, respectfully clasping his fists and said, "I ask for your guidance, Senior."
The woman moved her delicate nose, waved her hand, and a figure in a blue dress appeared beside her.
Zhong Heng was taken aback.
"Star River Immortal."
Pei Xinghe opened his eyes, glanced at Zhong Heng expressionlessly.
"I know a place, you can go there..."
"It’s called... Sword Spirit Heaven..."
[In the New Source Era 7566, you arrived near Sword Spirit Heaven...]
As a Pocket World refined by Jiuzhou Immortals, Sword Spirit Heaven naturally was near Jiuzhou.
But it was among the farthest of the many worlds near Jiuzhou.
At least here, the presence of Jiuzhou couldn’t be felt at all.
But one could feel the rather prominent Lands of Vitality in the void, each a world.
In unknown times, several worlds appeared around Sword Spirit Heaven, ranging from small Secret Realms to large Pocket Worlds.
The density was quite high, almost comparable to the many Fragment Worlds once hidden in Jiuzhou’s inner space.
Undoubtedly, Sword Spirit Heaven was the most dazzling world around.
Zhong Heng stroked his chin, glanced again at the tightly hidden Jiuzhou, as if he thought of something.
However, Zhong Heng didn’t think much of it.
A Sword Array covered him, his True Essence transforming into Sword Essence, as Zhong Heng stepped into Sword Spirit Heaven.
[Clearly your first time in Sword Spirit Heaven, yet you find it somewhat familiar.]
[Sword Spirit Heaven is divided into five major Sword Domains—East, West, South, North, and Central—led by five major Sword Institutes.]
[You can feel a lingering aura of shadow on Sword Spirit Heaven.]
[You presented Pei Xinghe’s token, and you instantly received the highest scale of reception.]
[You easily learned a lot of information about Sword Spirit Heaven.]
[The strongest here are five Divinity Transformation Sword Cultivators.]
[The Sword Cultivators in Sword Spirit Heaven are even more valiant than you imagined, as if they were born for the Sword Dao, more fierce and pure compared to Jiuzhou.]
[You saw a huge statue erected in the Central Institute, and learned from the cultivators of Sword Spirit Heaven that it depicts a Sword Cultivator named Pei Min.]
[It is rumored that after the fall of the one who once ruled Sword Spirit Heaven, Pei Min was the first peerless powerhouse to become a Divinity Transformation in this world.]
[Titled Beidou Sword Master.]
[Also recognized as the foremost in Sword Spirit Heaven.]
[Through Pei Xinghe’s relations, you perused the Sword Scripture left by Pei Min, yet felt surprisingly familiar with it.]
[In the New Source Era 7567, you left Sword Spirit Heaven.]
[You began searching for newborn worlds in the void.]
[Very few extraordinary creatures can traverse the void; you have crossed endless distances and have never encountered one that can navigate the void.]
[However, you discovered a world developing a battleship capable of void navigation.]
[This battleship, however, required the exclusive energy source of that world.]
[You infiltrated that world and found its Spiritual Qi not lacking.]
[Yet, this world lacked powerful extraordinary creatures, or rather, lacked powerful intelligent extraordinary creatures, and you found common points among many creatures.]
[Even the Celestial Blood Stone, considered a divine gift in this world, held the same aura as the depths of creatures’ bloodlines.]
[That is the Divine Beast Blood.]
[You do not know whose Divine Beast Blood it is, but nearly all creatures in this world possess this Divine Beast’s bloodline.]
[The Celestial Blood Stone, the core energy source of the void-crossing battleship, is the crystallization of this Divine Beast’s blood.]
[You suspect that this Divine Beast follows the Divine Beast True Form Dao, possibly a demon race powerhouse before the Ancient Wilderness Era, whose body part merged into this world after its fall.]
[Therefore, the bloodline suppresses the Cultivation Dao.]
[The Human Race cannot cultivate, relying only on the Celestial Blood Stone to continually illuminate their technological advancements.]
[The Demon Beasts can cultivate using their bloodline, but Enlightenment is extremely difficult; the Human Race uses the Celestial Blood Stone to fight powerful demon beasts endowed with divine beast bloodlines.]
[You find this world quite interesting.]
[Its potential is also not bad, possibly becoming your initial world.]
[It’s just a pity this world is entangled with the karma of that unknown Divine Beast.]
[You took some Celestial Blood Stones and the technological crystallizations of this world’s Human Race, and then left.]
[You continued searching for worlds around Sword Spirit Heaven.]
Sword Spirit Heaven serves as a coordinate in the void.
It basically represents the farthest void domain near Jiuzhou.
Going further would be beyond Jiuzhou’s range.
Zhong Heng might get lost in the void.
Approaching Jiuzhou would bring him under the cover of an Array, all newly birthed Lower Realms by Jiuzhou, unsuitable for refining.
Only the worlds in the peripheral void like Sword Spirit Heaven are suitable for refining and are safe extraterritorial worlds.
In Sword Spirit Heaven, every Sword Cultivator is an exceptional hand, and Zhong Heng could summon power from Sword Spirit Heaven if he encountered a formidable Divinity Transformation being.
As for encountering an Immortal in the void?
It’s basically impossible.
Because Zhong Heng’s backing is a Peak Grand Thousand World with numerous immortals, Jiuzhou would not permit extraordinary creatures with unfamiliar immortal Life Levels to linger nearby.
[Perhaps because many Jiuzhou immortals are out traveling.]
[You can sense in the worlds you encounter, regardless of race or Cultivation System, that everything ultimately boils down to Cultivation.]
[You encountered a classic Cultivation World named Central Earth.]
[You encountered a semi-collapsed world facing the apocalypse of Spiritual Qi exhaustion.]
[You encountered a world ruled by Incense Fire Deities of a Qi Fortune Dynasty.]
[You encountered a world where the Human Race has been at war with the Void Insect Race for thousands of years.]
[You encountered a powerful Divinity Transformation corpse carrying a world on its back.]
[You encountered a world transformed from a Divine Artifact of flames.]
"This won’t do; its foundation is too weak."
"This won’t do either; Yin and Yang aren’t balanced enough."
"This one is quite okay; just the world is a bit old."
"Hmm?"
"Another Void Fleet?"
Zhong Heng looked with interest towards a distant Star Realm.
It was a small Star Realm composed of dozens of stars of varying sizes.
Between each star, there was actually a fleet navigating.
"Celestial River Fleet Jiawu and its subsidiary fleets are all operating normally."
"Heading towards the target world."
"The Divine Stone is operating stably."
"Weapons checked and stable."
"Void fluctuation pattern detection normal..."
"Wait, there’s a high-energy entity approaching us!"
"Please investigate, find out which model from what world the void battleship is."
"No, no!"
"That’s not a battleship, it’s a person, it’s a person!"
"Don’t joke around, how could a person traverse the void with just their body..."
The fleet raised an alarm.
A figure stood before the fleet.
Then the figure rapidly expanded, becoming towering and imposing.
The small figure and the vast fleet were converted in size within an instant.
A man in black robes, with eyes seemingly containing the stars and all creation, looked with interest at the fleet in his palm.
"Another unique energy source..."
"But the specifications are not as high as the Divine Blood Stone from that Divine Beast..."
The man in black robes spoke in a language incomprehensible to everyone.
