Chapter 333: The Unconquerable Great Solar Star Body, and the Disappearance of the Spirit Realm's Do
Chapter 333: The Unconquerable Great Solar Star Body, and the Disappearance of the Spirit Realm's Door
Beyond the Endless Abyss, the Azure Sea holds other treacherous places, yet none compare to the dangers of the Abyss, and the likelihood of finding divine artifacts is significantly reduced.
"Aside from the Azure Sea's Endless Abyss, there is one other place where divine artifacts may be found, but it is extremely difficult to locate. Rumor has it that the Azure Sea Orb resides within."
Cailing pondered for a moment before speaking, "The Azure Black Hole is a special place in the Azure Sea. If we're talking about danger, it certainly exists because venturing deeper increases the likelihood of losing one's sense of direction."
"Especially for humans, the danger is even greater, and one could easily become trapped inside."
According to Cailing, the Azure Black Hole is not actually a deep hole. It is named so because there is an area in the Azure Sea as dark as ink, resembling a black hole.
Upon entering, not only is one's vision obstructed, but the range that one's spiritual soul power can explore is also greatly reduced.
"Because of the uniqueness of the Black Hole, even if there are divine artifacts within, they are not easy to find, and one can only rely on luck and opportunity. Remember, do not venture too deep, or you may risk getting lost.
"You may think that you are floating on the sea, but in reality, you are sinking or drifting towards another area.
"Moreover, it is said that there are some special creatures in the Black Hole that will attack intruders. Although most of them are not strong, there may be powerful beings lurking in the depths of the hole."
Cailing spoke with a serious expression.
Xu Yan nodded, making a mental note of these places to explore one by one after arriving at the Azure Sea.
"I once heard from an elderly elder of the Sea Spirit tribe that the Black Hole is suspected to be a remnant of an ancient battlefield, which is why it is so unique."
Cailing added one last sentence.
Next, she took out a crystal-clear small sea snail shell and a small seashell, on which was engraved with a pattern, and in the center were the words "Cai Ling."
"This is my token," she said. "If you need it, you can use my token to seek help from the Sea Spirit tribe. If you get lost or want to find out where to go, you can blow this conch shell.
"If there are any sea spirits nearby, they will come to your aid and point you in the right direction."
Xu Yan took the conch shell and seashell and bowed, "Thank you!"
"You're welcome!" Cailing replied with a smile.
These items were nothing compared to the opportunities bestowed by the elders.
Xu Yan once again set off on his journey through the Spirit Realm, this time heading to the Azure Sea to search for Xie Lingfeng and the divine artifacts within.
Meng Chong scratched his head, "After I finish traveling through the rest of the states, I'll also pay a visit to the Azure Sea."
Suling Xiu also had her heart set on it. She decided that the next stop for the Evergreen Pavilion would be the Azure Sea.
The Evergreen Pavilion's flying boat rose into the air, heading towards the Great Zhou Dynasty's capital city.
The Great Zhou Royal Family remained silent, clearly aware that they were in the wrong and had no plans for retaliation.
Li Xuan sat in the pavilion, with only Meng Chong by his side.
It was time to teach Meng Chong the cultivation method for the Unconquerable Golden Body of the Great Solar.
He had also devised the subsequent training methods for physical martial arts.
"Master!"
Meng Chong addressed him respectfully.
"You have already enlightened the Unconquerable Golden Body of the Great Solar. What insights have you gained about the subsequent training of the physical martial arts?" Li Xuan asked with a nod.
"Master, I am dull-witted and have no insights into the subsequent training of the Unconquerable Golden Body of the Great Solar."
Meng Chong scratched his bald head.
"Today, I shall impart to you the cultivation method for the Unconquerable Great Solar Star Body, which surpasses the Unconquerable Golden Body."
Li Xuan nodded, unsurprised. If Meng Chong had gained insights into the subsequent training of physical martial arts, he would not need Li Xuan to create new techniques.
"Thank you, Master!"
Meng Chong was overjoyed.
The Unconquerable Golden Body of the Great Solar was already incredibly powerful, showcasing the might of physical martial arts. With his current strength, even if he stood still, cultivators who had refined their understanding of the heavens and earth would be unable to inflict even the slightest harm upon him.
Even if they used divine artifacts, they might only be able to inflict minor injuries. Meng Chong even suspected that his physical strength was almost comparable to the divine artifacts of the Spirit Sect.
Li Xuan's expression turned solemn as he spoke slowly, "Above the Unconquerable Golden Body of the Great Solar lies the Unconquerable Great Solar Star Body. Each meridian is a star, and the stars revolve around the great sun in a set pattern. The first level of the Unconquerable Great Solar Star Body is the Star Phase, where the body resembles the great sun, and the stars revolve around it..."
The subsequent martial arts technique for the Unconquerable Golden Body of the Great Solar was the Unconquerable Great Solar Star Body, which Li Xuan had finally confirmed after repeated contemplation.
This laid the foundation for the future direction of physical cultivation, with each golden body meridian corresponding to a star.
Each star contains a profound mystery.
Or a divine ability.
Similar to the Unconquerable Golden Body of the Great Solar, the Unconquerable Great Solar Star Body also has three levels. The first level corresponds to the Divine Image Realm, where the body resembles the great sun, and the stars revolve around it. These revolving stars are meridian stars, communicating with the laws of heaven and earth.
To ensure the unwavering might of physical martial arts and to achieve a certain state of physical cultivation, Li Xuan had expended considerable effort.
Even so, he had only devised the first two levels of the Unconquerable Great Solar Star Body, and the third level remained incomplete, requiring further refinement.
Meng Chong's heart raced with excitement. Just listening to his master's description filled him with awe at the power and dominance of the Unconquerable Great Solar Star Body. With each thought, the golden body resembled the great sun, surrounded by stars, exuding an awe-inspiring aura! Each star represented a profound mystery and a divine ability.
"I shall impart to you the first level. Pay attention and remember it well..."
Li Xuan began to teach Meng Chong the first level of the Unconquerable Great Solar Star Body. This technique also incorporated the patterns of the laws of heaven and earth, making it easier to comprehend how to manipulate these laws and cultivate the star meridians.
As he taught Meng Chong the technique, Li Xuan glanced at the information provided by the Golden Book of the Great Dao.
Unconquerable Great Solar Star Body (First Level)
:
Technique Perfection: Upper-Middle.
Realm Cohesion: High.
Comprehension Difficulty: High.
Cultivation Difficulty: High.
The technique's perfection was maintained at an upper-middle level.
The realm cohesion, however, had improved significantly.
After explaining the Unconquerable Great Solar Star Body once, Li Xuan explained it again to ensure that Meng Chong memorized it thoroughly.
Meng Chong listened attentively, committing every word and detail of the technique to memory.
Once Meng Chong had fully digested the first level of the technique, Li Xuan began to teach him the second level.
Unconquerable Great Solar Star Body (Second Level)
:
Technique Perfection: Upper-Middle.
Realm Cohesion: Upper-Middle.
Comprehension Difficulty: High.
Cultivation Difficulty: High.
Li Xuan had spent a significant amount of time improving the realm cohesion between the second level of the Unconquerable Great Solar Star Body and the first level, managing to raise it to an upper-middle level.
However, that was sufficient.
As long as Meng Chong could comprehend the first level of the Unconquerable Great Solar Star Body, he would naturally be able to comprehend the second level as well. An upper-middle level of realm cohesion would simply require more time for comprehension.
Similarly, Li Xuan explained the Unconquerable Great Solar Star Body twice, highlighting the important parts and providing detailed explanations to ensure that Meng Chong could fully digest and remember the technique.
"I shall impart to you the second level of the Unconquerable Great Solar Star Body. As for the third level, I will teach it to you after you have comprehended the first level, to avoid overwhelming you."
After imparting the second level of the technique, Li Xuan waved his hand.
"Yes, Master!"
Meng Chong bowed respectfully and took his leave, intending to find a quiet place to ponder and thoroughly memorize the technique to avoid any omissions.
In the Great Zhou Imperial City, countless martial artists awaited the Great Zhou Royal Family's next move.
The Evergreen Pavilion had directly arrived outside the capital, and not long ago, at the Small Star Lake, they had killed a powerful expert from the Great Zhou Royal Family. Now, their sudden appearance outside the Imperial Capital seemed like a deliberate provocation.
Although it was common knowledge that the Evergreen Pavilion wandered far and wide, and their arrival at the Imperial Capital might have been a planned destination, the recent conflict at the Small Star Lake followed by their sudden appearance here couldn't help but arouse suspicions of intentional provocation.
This resulted in a rather cold reception for the Evergreen Pavilion. Despite their presence, no martial artists came forward for treatment, as everyone was watching to see how the Great Zhou Royal Family would respond.
"What's going on with the people in the Great Zhou Imperial City? Are there no injured martial artists, or are they simply not interested in pills?"
Shi Er expressed his confusion.
"They're probably waiting for the Great Zhou Royalty to make a move," Meng Shushu replied with a smile.
"Ziyun, are there any interesting places to visit in the Great Zhou Imperial City?" Su Lingxiu asked curiously.
"There should be, I suppose?" Ziyun replied uncertainly. "I'm not very familiar with those people from the Royal Family, and I can't be bothered to curry favor with them. I spend most of my time cultivating.
"However, my adoptive father has always been kind to me. I don't know why he sent my brother to Cloud City."
"I see," Su Lingxiu mused. "Let's go take a look around the Imperial City tomorrow. After all, it's the only kingdom in the Spirit Realm that isn't under the control of the Spirit Sect, and I want to see how prosperous the Great Zhou Imperial City is."
"Miss, will there be any trouble entering the Great Zhou Imperial City?" Zhou Ying asked worriedly.
"What trouble could there be? I'm not afraid of trouble, and if the Xiang family of the Great Zhou wants to court death, then so be it. We have Master here with us," Su Lingxiu said nonchalantly.
Zhou Ying thought about it and found her reasoning reasonable. After all, the Evergreen Pavilion was least concerned about trouble.
"So this is the Great Zhou Imperial City, the number one royal city in the Spirit Realm. Now that we're here, we must take a tour," Li Xuan said, gazing at the Imperial City. He, too, was intrigued by the idea of exploring the city.
"Great Zhou Zi Wang, bringing his errant son to apologize to the Dan Yi Xianzi!"
As Su Lingxiu and her companions discussed their plans to visit the Great Zhou Imperial City, a voice suddenly rang out.
"Zi Wang?" Su Lingxiu was surprised. Was the Great Zhou Royal Family backing down? Zi Wang had come to apologize?
"That Xiang Mingmao is Zi Wang's son," Ziyun explained.
"I see," Su Lingxiu nodded. She activated an array, creating a doorway, and said, "Come in."
A man in purple robes, Zi Wang, followed by a young man with his head lowered, stepped into the pavilion. It was none other than Xiang Mingmao!
"Greetings, Zi Wang," Ziyun said politely.
As a member of the Great Zhou Royal Family herself, she gave a respectful greeting to Zi Wang, not daring to be as casual as Su Lingxiu and the others.
Zi Wang nodded in response.
"Greetings, Miss Su," Zi Wang said with a solemn bow. "Some time ago, my son was arrogant and rude to you, Miss Su. I was preoccupied with important matters and couldn't apologize sooner. Now that I've heard that you've arrived in the Imperial City, I've brought my son to apologize to you.
"My son was reckless and offended both you and the Evergreen Pavilion. Please accept his apology, Miss Su," Zi Wang said, giving Xiang Mingmao a stern look.
"Some time ago, I was reckless and offended the Evergreen Pavilion and Miss Su. Please accept my apology, Miss Su," Xiang Mingmao said, his heart filled with a hundred grievances.
However, this was the decision of the Great Zhou Royalty, and no matter how unwilling he was, he had to obey or risk losing his position as the crown prince. Seeing Ziyun standing beside Su Lingxiu, he felt both jealous and resentful, but he kept all these emotions hidden deep within.
As Xiang Mingmao apologized, he held a box high above his head with both hands.
"It's just a minor matter, and there's no need for such a grand gesture," Su Lingxiu waved her hand dismissively.
"It's just a small token of our sincerity. I hope you won't mind, Miss Su," Zi Wang said with a smile.
"Then, thank you," Su Lingxiu nodded.
Zhou Ying stepped forward and took the box from Xiang Mingmao.
"His Majesty of the Great Zhou wishes to host a banquet to entertain Miss Su. May I ask if Miss Su would be available to accept the invitation?" Zi Wang asked.
Su Lingxiu shook her head directly. "I'm afraid I'm not interested in attending banquets."
Despite the Great Zhou Royalty's humble gesture, Su Lingxiu still refused.
"If that's the case, then we shall take our leave," Zi Wang nodded and bid farewell, leading Xiang Mingmao away.
"Why is Zi Wang so accommodating? I've heard that he's quite domineering," Ziyun wondered aloud.
"He's only domineering towards the weak. When faced with a strong opponent, he wouldn't dare to be so presumptuous," Meng Chong said as he walked over.
Zi Wang was indeed powerful.
However, Meng Chong wasn't particularly concerned. With his current strength, he was confident that he was no weaker than Zi Wang. If they were to engage in a real fight, Zi Wang would undoubtedly be the one to lose.
The next day, Ziyun, accompanied by Meng Chong, Su Lingxiu, Yue'er, and Cailing, set out for the Imperial City, while Shi Er, Meng Shushu, and Zhou Ying stayed behind on the flying boat, feeling that their weaker cultivation would only be a burden in case of any unforeseen events.
At that moment, Li Xuan was already strolling through the Great Zhou Imperial Palace, filled with awe: "As expected of a kingdom with a foundation comparable to the Super Spirit Sect. Their strength is indeed formidable. The Great Zhou Emperor's strength is also quite impressive."
Although the Great Zhou Emperor's strength was inferior to that of Xin Mengrou and Wu Tiannan, according to what Wu Tiannan had said, he was still stronger than the Grand Masters of the Thousand Martial Arts Hall, the Lord of Thundercloud Villa, and the Master of Spirit Control Palace.
Of course, the Great Zhou Emperor's apparent strength was on par with that of the Grand Masters, but he was indeed an old fox, always keeping a trick up his sleeve.
Unlike the Grand Masters, who used their cultivation techniques to conceal their true strength, the Great Zhou Emperor carried a divine artifact that masked his actual power.
In the state of Yu, within the kingdom of Zheng!
Two elders from the Thousand Martial Arts Hall quietly arrived and sought out King Zheng, leading him to the grand hall where the Spirit Realm Gate was located.
"The opening of the Spirit Realm Gate must not be disclosed. Anyone who leaks even a hint of this information will be put to death!"
The elder from the Thousand Martial Arts Hall glared at King Zheng and the two guards in the hall, his voice heavy with warning.
"Yes, Elder!"
King Zheng and the two guards were so intimidated that they broke out in a cold sweat.
The person who had arrived was an elder from the Super Spirit Sect!
"Please wait a moment, Elder," the two guards said, not daring to delay. They quickly began the process of opening the Spirit Realm Gate.
"Just open it a crack," one of the elders instructed.
To avoid attracting attention, they had carefully scanned the surroundings to ensure that no other martial artists were present who might witness the opening of the Spirit Realm Gate.
"Elder, it's ready!" one of the guards announced.
"Good," the elder from the Thousand Martial Arts Hall nodded.
He stepped through the grand hall, his heart filled with excitement, only to freeze in his tracks as he exited.
Where was the Spirit Realm Gate? The area where the gate had been was now empty, devoid of any sign of the gate!
Had the Spirit Realm Gate disappeared?!
