Chapter 465 Beyond the Sky
Qi Refining Channel.
Within the secret realm of Yuan Lei.
Countless thunderbirds circled in the sky, then fell like raindrops. Fang Qing watched the whole thing unfold, witnessing the young, powerful cultivator painstakingly breaking the seal, slaying the demonic beast, and finally delivering his spoils to him...
To die seeking gold, to transform into demons, to divide and devour it... truly the style of the demon race.
Unlike my human race, even if we want to eat them, we at least have to wait until they truly perish and then use the spiritual objects born from their Purple Mansion... At least we have an extra layer of skin and a bit more face.
He stood with his hands behind his back, vaguely sensing that something was amiss.
Back then, when the great demon Suwu sought gold, how many Dharma Kings and disciples came to the secret realm? The vast void was filled with golden bodies.
This time, however, only the chief strategist Xuan was present!
Even Xu Hei can only be considered a vassal of the White Bone Path, not a true cultivator of the Secret Realm.
This is enough to illustrate some points.
"And that old fox, Anzhuzi... He said he was going to investigate the Thunder Ancient Method, but then he disappeared without a trace."
"But today, I saw him on Mount Qingqiu..."
Competition among demons is fierce. The fox clan has lost a powerful demon at the peak of the Purple Mansion realm, and will likely have to hide in a blessed land for some time. This old fox is no match for them... Oh well, we can't be too demanding. After all, he's just a mere Foundation Establishment demon general...
Just then, a mountain peak collapsed ahead, and amidst the billowing dust, a streak of light appeared before Fang Qing, bowing respectfully: "Senior... I have broken the restrictions in the cave ahead... This is a treasure I have looted!"
The young cultivator, with a calm expression, respectfully handed a broken piece of jade to Fang Qing with both hands.
Although this person is a Nascent Soul cultivator, he would not be treated as a servant by a Deity Transformation Venerable.
The reason for this is naturally due to the influence of Fang Qing's "words become law," which gradually made him unlike himself.
"Take this expedition for example. The cave contained many vicious restrictions, and there was even a puppet that was close to a high-grade fourth-tier weapon, which nearly severely injured a powerful cultivator. But he took it all for granted, and even felt a sense of pride in Fang Qing's serious injury and death... In short, his brain has broken down..."
After reaching the Divine Transformation stage, the power of one's words becomes even greater... After all, I am a whole realm above this person. Although I am not as powerful as a lower-level cultivator who can decide life or death with a single sentence... if we spend a long time together and constantly give commands, the effect is truly the same.
Fang Qing took the purple jade fragment and saw that it was as if cinnabar had seeped into the jade, depicting an extremely intricate talisman pattern.
It carried wisps of lightning, giving it a feel reminiscent of the thirty-six palaces, such as the Jade Pillar and Jade Palace.
He even secretly calculated the cause and effect, and immediately sensed a strange thunder palace along this jade talisman.
The azure-purple aura surged and the thirty-six lightning bolts shifted and changed, forming the 'Thunder Palace'!
"Indeed, it is something connected by cause and effect."
He casually infused a wisp of magic power, and immediately, streaks of lightning lit up on the jade talisman, forming a "Jade Court Great Cave Divine Strike." This divine lightning was incredibly powerful; even a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator would be severely injured if they took a direct hit from it. As his magic power continued to flow, the streaks of jade-white divine lightning crisscrossed, actually forming a lightning net, faintly displaying the might of a formation.
"What a fine thunder talisman! Even a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator could use it as a trump card."
Even if it falls into the hands of a Nascent Soul cultivator, it can be considered a rare treasure.
It was indeed formed by incorporating a trace of the Thunder Palace's aura.
Fang Qing nodded in satisfaction.
He silently calculated with his fingers, combining the cause and effect of the previous "Mysterious Thunder Drum" and other items, and gradually a clue appeared: "This Thunder Palace Secret Realm is actually wandering? It constantly drifts in the void, occasionally opening by chance in the cultivation world of the East Sea. Thus, an ancestor of the Mu family who cultivated the Jade Thunder Technique accidentally stumbled in and obtained a great opportunity... But after he reached the Nascent Soul stage, the secret realm had already left. Going back to the original place to try and find it again would be impossible, even after ten thousand years..."
The situation on the Yunzhou continent is similar; it was opened up countless millennia ago, and someone brought out an opportunity...
But now it is deserted and no longer exists. This Yuan Lei Secret Realm was established by a destined person later. This thunder talisman is probably the most precious item in it!
"Hmm, it seems to have some effect on reducing the Heavenly Tribulation of Nascent Soul stage..."
If this were given to any other Nascent Soul cultivator at the peak of their cultivation, they would practically have to risk their lives for it. Fang Qing's divine sense surged forth, sweeping across the entire secret realm, and he silently formed a hand seal: 'Indeed... there's not much opportunity left.'
He accepted the Jade Thunder Talisman and said to the young cultivator beside him, who was behaving like a servant, "There are other treasures in this secret realm, which I'll entrust to you as compensation for your hard work..."
"I only wish to serve you faithfully, young master, and that would be enough for me." The young cultivator, however, looked unwilling and resentful.
"What a simp... Well, my talent is still too strong... The old guy's change in address shows that his supernatural abilities are becoming more and more deeply ingrained..."
Fang Qing shook his head inwardly and said, "If you become a god in the future, we will meet again; otherwise, let's just forget about it..."
With a flick of his sleeve, he vanished without a trace.
The young cultivator stood frozen in place for a long time. Suddenly, a bead of cold sweat appeared on his forehead, and he gasped for breath: "I...he...this old servant...what's wrong with me?"
He vaguely remembered what had happened before, and recalling it now filled him with increasing fear.
"A change in mind... Is this a Nascent Soul cultivator? Or an unparalleled prodigy?"
I only met him once, yet I already feel an overwhelming urge to serve him as my master...
Shao was still covered in cold sweat, feeling as if he had finally escaped from a nightmare.
"Look! A precious light has suddenly appeared here; a great treasure must be about to be born!" "Haha... This is a stroke of luck from heaven; it must be mine, Kunhezi's..."
Just then, one after another Nascent Soul level streaks of light arrived, clearly high-level cultivators who had come to kill and seize the treasure after witnessing the extraordinary phenomenon of the treasures shining brightly in the sky and thunder descending upon the world.
"Hmph!" Upon seeing this, the young cultivator immediately snorted coldly.
Don't be fooled by his subservient and servant-like behavior in front of Fang Qing.
However, his cultivation level had reached the late Nascent Soul stage, making him a top figure in the Yunzhou Continent.
In his anger, this cold snort carried a divine sense attack, causing countless Nascent Soul stage monsters to change their expressions drastically: Oh no, it's Young Master Monster!
"Hurry up!"
"You've had a very bad day... I'm in a bad mood, so I'm going to kill a few people to clear my head..."
Shao Huan, having cultivated his way up through the years, was not a soft-hearted person.
Feeling frustrated and needing to vent, these Nascent Soul stage monsters were immediately struck by bad luck.
In an instant, a magical treasure resembling a scroll unfolded, from which countless rare and exotic beasts appeared one after another, and streams of heavenly flowers fell, transforming into various colors of light, sealing off the surrounding void.
"You old monster... are you crazy?"
"Spare me, sir, spare me..."
In an instant, chaos erupted within the Yuan Lei Secret Realm.
……
Fang Qing had no longer cared about the Yuan Lei Secret Realm.
After obtaining the jade thunder talisman, and with the 'Jade Thunder Technique' he cultivated, along with his control of the 'Mysterious Thunder Drum', he could vaguely sense the location of the [Mysterious Thunder] golden position in the 'Ten Thousand Thunder Palace Diagram'.
It was indeed moving within the Primordial Heaven's Great Void, but it was adrift and difficult to pinpoint its exact location.
"It seems we need to search for more information related to the cause and effect..."
The vast emptiness is hazy and indistinct.
Fang Qing stood there, sensing the vast emptiness, and immediately gained a great deal.
After reaching the Divine Transformation stage, one has essentially achieved minor mastery of ancient techniques, possessing full potential in various phenomena and the ability to amplify sensory perception.
At this moment, a thought struck him: he remembered the several Void Coordinates he had seized from the demon spirit after destroying it.
According to the Qi Refining Path, this is the location of the ascension passage... a weak point within the Primordial Heaven...
The cave contains its own vast emptiness, which does not interact with the external vast emptiness.
However, by exploiting those loopholes, it is possible to connect with the outer void and ascend to the 'Immortal Realm'!
Of course, this process is extremely dangerous, but it is a way to escape the cave, only the future is not very promising.
Furthermore, the coordinates of this ascension channel are not located in a single place, but rather in a fixed area that is constantly changing within that area.
That is why, once one ascends, it is almost impossible to return from the outer void.
This doesn't even seem like a loophole, but rather like a specific passage prepared for the beings inside when the Primordial Heaven was created.
Fang Qing arrived at a vast, ethereal region, where countless silver-white void storms swept around, creating an exceptionally dangerous atmosphere.
Even a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator would avoid such a desolate place from afar.
However, in Fang Qing's eyes now, the danger is only average. As long as he is not foolish enough to rush headlong into the depths of the void storm, there will be no major problems.
The ascension passage is naturally hidden in the void. If there is a Nascent Soul cultivator here, they will know how to calculate the coordinates.
If my luck isn't too bad, I still have a good chance of ascending to the Dao.
Upon seeing this, he shook his head and then thought of other things.
The Great Void! This thing encompasses the void, yet it is not the void itself, but rather a more metaphysical concept.
Even in both celestial paradises and the mortal world, there is a connection to the void.
However, there is also a barrier between different voids, and it is difficult to pass through without breaking through it.
Most of those blessed lands and grotto-heavens are also hidden in the void. The so-called shaking of blessed lands and grotto-heavens is actually the process of connecting the two voids!
But... what lies beyond the void?
Fang Qing suddenly felt a little interested.
The cultivators of this realm are born here and die here, so naturally they have no doubts whatsoever.
But since he was a time traveler, he was still quite interested in it.
Moreover, for a Golden Core True Monarch, this world is rather narrow and closed off. Are there any daredevils willing to explore it further?
Even though Fang Qing had read through many secret scriptures and had extensive knowledge, he could only barely find the term "Beyond the Heavens" in the old books, which was considered to be somewhat relevant.
"Then, is it that the Golden Core True Monarch is unwilling to go out, or unable to go out?"
A thought flashed through his mind: "I possess the all-encompassing power of the Dao-generating Pearl... it's not impossible. Once I reach the Golden Core stage, I'll definitely take a good look at the scenery beyond the heavens!"
