Chapter 437: Pan Gu Token
Chapter 437: Pan Gu Token
In the blink of an eye, fifty-three years passed.
Vast Void Illusion.
On the cloud platform, a thousand-meter-long black-red dragon was engaged in a fierce battle with a white-scaled deer-headed dragon-like beast.
With a loud crash, the black-red dragon struck out with its claw, crushing the head of the deer-headed dragon.
"Core member assessment complete... Ranking first, Black Dragon!"
A voice devoid of much emotion announced from within the Vast Void Illusion.
"Core member ranking second, Jade White!"
"Ranking third, Ao Xin!"
...
Hearing this, Cloud Pagoda couldn't help but clench his fists.
He had been pushing himself to the limit for decades, but he had truly reached his limits in all aspects, making it difficult to make any further progress.
Unless he broke through to the Soul Core Realm, it would be extremely challenging to achieve any breakthroughs.
Unfortunately, he couldn't enter the Pan Gu Mystic Realm unless he broke through after entering! Therefore, even the Empress Daughter Shi Qing from the Azure Emperor Palace had not broken through to the Soul Core Realm, all in anticipation of the opening of the Pan Gu Mystic Realm!
Compared to the benefits within the Pan Gu Mystic Realm, delaying Soul Core ascension for a few decades was undoubtedly more advantageous than detrimental.
Unfortunately, despite his best efforts, he couldn't surpass those three freaks.
"Perhaps... I should ascend to the Soul Core Realm."
Cloud Pagoda looked at the three Great Demons ahead of him, feeling a bit dejected.
"This Black Dragon, its physique is unbelievably powerful... It doesn't seem like something cultivated through personal training; it must have utilized some kind of extraordinary item."
High above in the sky, the many Heavenly Eyes communicated through their thoughts:
"Hmph... Black Dragon is a disciple of Qing Hua. Qing Hua once obtained a 'Derivative Dao Mirror', so she must have used it to have used it to force his growth... She's really generous. If I had a 'Derivative Dao Mirror', I'd rather use it myself than give it to a disciple..."
For Fang Xing, who often attempted dangerous secret techniques from the 'Qing Hua Scroll' in the Vast Void Illusion and purchased various rare materials, exposing some secrets was not a concern.
Moreover, obtaining the 'Qing Hua' was not something to be ashamed of.
Even if he were to incur the enmity of the Azure Emperor Palace, he was already on their bad side...
The giant eye that spoke belonged to another Celestial Demon, the master of Jade White, which explained the sour tone.
"Hehe... There's no need to be too harsh. Black Dragon managed to advance his Time Doctrine to the third level of comprehension in just a few decades... It proves his extraordinary talent in the path of time..."
A gentle voice spoke up, belonging to a female Celestial Immortal.
Since Cloud Pagoda was destined to be eliminated, they didn't have any conflicts and could provide an impartial evaluation.
"Heaven-Defying Great Sage, what do you think?"
The other giant eyes turned to the pair of eyes belonging to the Heaven-Defying Great Sage.
"Follow the rules, but I'll personally provide some additional sponsorship."
The Heaven-Defying Great Sage's eyes looked down at Fang Xing, who stood at the forefront of the core members: "Black Dragon!"
"I pay my respects to the Great Sage."
Fang Xing respectfully bowed his head.
"As the first-ranked core member, according to the rules of the Vast Void Illusion, you automatically obtain a spot in the Pan Gu Mystic Realm."
The Heaven-Defying Great Sage spoke, "Additionally, you can choose a treasure, but I'll make an exception and offer you ninety-nine Soul Core Elixirs instead."
"Thank you, Great Sage."
Fang Xing's eyes lit up.
These Mortal Realm princes would undoubtedly break through to the Soul Core Realm once they entered the Pan Gu Mystic Realm.
However, the disparity in power between the first and ninth levels of the Soul Core Realm was immense! Therefore, they would all bring sufficient Soul Core Elixirs to facilitate their rapid breakthrough within the Pan Gu Mystic Realm.
Unfortunately, acquiring enough Soul Core Elixirs was no easy task, even for Celestial Demons.
Ninety-nine Soul Core Elixirs were a significant investment for the Heaven-Defying Great Sage.
"Black Dragon, Jade White, and Ao Xin... Prepare yourselves. Soon, the Boundless Mountain will personally send Celestial Demons to escort you to the Pan Gu Mystic Realm aboard the Illusory Void Ship."
After announcing the generous rewards, the giant eyes vanished.
The other core members breathed a sigh of relief, and a white jade dragon approached Fang Xing: "Black Dragon, please take good care of my little sister during this journey to the secret realm."
Compared to Black Dragon and Jade White, who were both of the Imperial Prince level, Ao Xin, who was of the Royal Prince level, seemed like an afterthought.
Although her strength was quite impressive among Royal Princes, she had also relied on some luck to defeat Cloud Pagoda.
"Of course, we three demons are from the same lineage of the Boundless Mountain. Once we enter the Pan Gu Mystic Realm, we'll naturally need to work together."
Fang Xing politely responded and returned to his true inheritance peak.
The tangible rewards, such as the Soul Core Elixirs, would be sent to Hundred Monkey Mountain.
However, within the Vast Void Illusion, his access privileges had been updated, allowing him to view more information about the Pan Gu Mystic Realm.
Several pieces of information surprised Fang Xing:
"The Pan Gu Mystic Realm is suspected to be left behind by an 'Eternal Being', or even a 'Transcendent Being'..."
Above the Soul Core Realm is the Celestial Immortal Realm, and above the Celestial Immortal Realm is the Chaos Realm. Only above the Chaos Realm lies the Eternal Realm!
As for Transcendence, it is even more mysterious and is only passed down orally among the mighty.
Even in the Qingyuan Great World, it is uncertain whether there are any 'Eternal Beings'.
"Each opening of the secret realm may last for decades, or even hundreds or thousands of years..."
"No wonder cultivators can advance to the Soul Core Realm within the secret realm. Those with slightly shorter lifespans might not even survive the duration of a single opening of the secret realm..."
"The Pan Gu Mystic Realm is divided into three major regions... The outermost region, where cultivators initially enter, is the 'Chaos Mountain'... It is incredibly vast and relatively safe, allowing for a relaxed advancement..."
"The second region is the 'Ancient Deity Temple', a temple nine light-years tall with infinite internal space. It contains numerous trials and inheritances, but it is also extremely dangerous... Even Soul Core Realm princes might perish with a single misstep... However, the rewards are also substantial. It is said that the most common and alluring prize is the opportunity to comprehend the 'Dao Tablet'!"
The Dao Tablet is different from the Dao Principle Steles, as it describes the 'Great Dao', which means... the path to the Chaos Realm! Even Celestial Demons yearn for the chance to comprehend the Dao Tablet once, but unfortunately, they cannot enter.
"In addition, there are numerous inheritances, Imperial Weapons, Imperial Armaments, and other wondrous treasures..."
"As for the most mysterious Core Zone, anyone who enters must take the Dao Oath, ensuring absolute secrecy..."
Fang Xing skimmed through the information and continued to comprehend the Time Doctrine.
...
"Come out!"
After an unknown amount of time, a voice echoed through the cave mansion.
Unconsciously, Fang Xing withdrew from his meditative state and glanced at his attribute panel:
【Space Law: 15682/20000 (Mastery)】
...
【Time Law: 3497/20000 (Mastery)】
【Nine Origin Star Body Forging Secret Technique (Black Dragon): 399/400 (Master)】
...
"Both the Space and Time Laws have reached the Mastery level. As expected, they are slightly more challenging to comprehend than ordinary laws..."
"And the Nine Origin Star Body Forging Secret Technique... It's at the Master level now, but after my True Spirit returns, I won't know what level it was before. It's like falling into a pit..."
"But experiencing the effects of a higher realm in advance will definitely benefit my future cultivation."
"Was that voice just now signaling our departure?"
Fang Xing flew out of the cave mansion and saw a massive silver-white warship docked outside Hundred Monkey Mountain.
On the deck stood several figures with terrifying auras.
Among them were the true forms of Jade White and Ao Xin, like Huskies in a pack of wolves.
"Let's go!"
The Heaven-Defying Great Sage spoke.
"Yes!"
Fang Xing nodded and flew onto the deck of the Void Ship.
"We were just waiting for you."
Ao Xin stepped forward and greeted him enthusiastically, "This time, the leaders are the Fire Departure Celestial Immortal and the No-Question Heavenly Demon..."
Before Fang Xing could respond, the Void Ship crashed into the Great Void.
Rumble!
In front of the giant ship, the void shattered like a colossal mirror.
Countless spatial turbulence surged forward, striking the ship's surface but dissipating like waves, harmlessly.
This was a weapon of war from Boundless Mountain, capable of rivaling Celestial Immortals and Celestial Demons even when piloted by only Essence Spirit Realm cultivators.
Of course, it required the combined efforts of thousands of Essence Spirit Realm experts.
Even so, it was an incredibly formidable technology.
In the main universe, it was akin to a group of professionals at the Twelfth Realm and below working together to create a force that could rival the Thirteenth Realm.
This was a technology the Blue Star Federation had yet to develop!
Fang Xing had already obtained the design blueprints and planned to bring them back to the main universe for testing.
Although he was certain they couldn't be reproduced, not only because of the different fundamental rules between the two worlds but also due to the unique materials, which were likely exclusive to the Qingyuan Great World and impossible to find in the main universe.
Nevertheless, having a direction was better than having nothing.
As Fang Xing pondered, a Chaos-Colored Token appeared before him.
"This is the Pan Gu Token... Upon arrival, only those with the Pan Gu Token and cultivators below the Essence Spirit Realm will be summoned by the secret realm..."
A clear voice sounded, "Boundless Mountain is offering a high price for all treasures obtained from the Pan Gu Mystic Realm... Of course, you don't need to disclose any confidential inheritances..."
Fang Xing picked up the Pan Gu Token and noticed that it had a deep azure hue. On the front of the token was a human-like figure, within which countless chaos seemed to swirl.
Just as he was pondering the material of the token, the Void Ship shook violently and entered the more ethereal Illusion Layer, beginning to move frantically.
'This distance... has far exceeded my limits.'
'How many billions of lightyears have we traveled?'
Fang Xing couldn't help but exclaim, even doubting if they were still within the Qingyuan Great World.
"We've arrived!"
Suddenly, the Void Ship stopped and returned to the material layer.
Rumble!
A Chaos Vortex with a diameter of several hundred lightyears churned in the shattered sky.
At the edge of the Chaos Vortex, numerous pavilions and palaces stood tall, and colossal figures loomed, emitting a terrifying pressure.
"The Azure Emperor Palace, Nuwa Empyrean Palace, Trifoliate Sect, Return Spirit Sect..."
Ao Xin counted them one by one, "The top powers of the Qingyuan Great World... almost all of them are here."
Fang Xing looked towards the Azure Emperor Palace and saw a sky-blue palace.
A deer-horned beast with a body larger than the blue palace stood outside.
The Empress Daughter Shi Qing within the palace seemed to sense something and glanced in his direction.
'As expected, this woman is also waiting for the opportunity of the Pan Gu Mystic Realm to break through to the Essence Spirit Realm.'
Fang Xing understood.
