Great Thousand World
The Great Thousand World!
At the intersection of countless planes, where countless independent planes intertwine, this is undoubtedly the center of the world!
Here, heroes gather, including the strongest individuals from Lower Plane, who follow the coveted path to Heavenly Sovereign and explore the mysterious and unknown realms beyond the Supreme.
The Hundred Spirits Continent.
The Hundred Spirits Continent is located in the Northwest of the Great Thousand World, and it is not particularly famous in this vast and endless Great Thousand World.
However, the super power that controls the Hundred Spirits Continent is extremely famous in the Northwest Region of this Great Thousand World.
The Northern Profound Palace, one of the overlords of the Northwest region of the Great Thousand World, controls four continents. The Palace Master of the Northern Profound Palace, Qin Beixuan, is said to have chosen to go into seclusion to break through to the Immortal Grade Immortal Grade Heavenly Sovereign Realm. Once successful, he will be able to further expand his influence.
The Immortal Grade Heavenly Sovereign is a being second only to the Saint Grade Giant in the Great Thousand World. Apart from the Five Great Ancient Clans and the Great Thousand Palace, which are the most powerful forces, the Immortal Grade Heavenly Sovereign can be said to be a strong person standing at the top of the Great Thousand World, a true pillar of strength.
Therefore, although the Hundred Spirits Continent is not well-known, it is not a place lacking in resources, as it has been taken by a power like the Northern Profound Palace.
Hundred Spirits Heaven is an inconspicuous region on the Hundred Spirits Continent. There are countless regions similar to Hundred Spirits Heaven on this continent.
Although the Hundred Spirits Continent is nominally under the rule of the Hundred Spirits King, this Hundred Spirits King has not established an effective rule. Therefore, there are many forces within the Hundred Spirits Dynasty, and countless forces are scattered throughout the large and small territories, fighting against each other.
The Northern Spirit Plains is a notoriously dangerous place within the Northern Spirit Territory of Hundred Spirits Heaven. Located in the Northwest of the Northern Spirit Territory, it is a vast area teeming with various ferocious Spiritual Beast. Exploration teams frequently venture into it to hunt Spiritual Beast and obtain resources.
The Northern Spirit Plains are rich in rare materials and spiritual herbs, making it a treasure trove. Of course, to obtain these treasures, you must possess sufficient strength; otherwise, you might not only fail to acquire the treasures but also lose your life there.
As night fell on the outskirts of the Northern Spirit Plains, a campfire rose in a campsite. Most of the people in the camp were young, probably on their first adventure, and the entire camp was filled with a lively atmosphere.
Beside the roaring campfire, a beautiful young girl sat blankly, gazing into the darkness beyond the camp. In that distant depths, it seemed as if various bloody roars of beasts echoed.
Her appearance wasn't particularly striking, but she possessed a mysterious and ethereal quality that aroused curiosity the more one looked at her. Around the campfire, many eyes were fixed on her with affection, mostly from energetic young men.
Although the girl was beautiful, her slightly pale lips suggested that she was not in good health.
"This is a huge loss. Our strength has plummeted to this level because of that Secret Realm."
The girl in the white dress gazed into the darkness, silently reciting to herself that she was not from the Northern Spirit Territory, nor even from the Hundred Spirits Continent. She had chosen to secretly leave her people to travel the continent for some reason, but unfortunately, she had suffered serious injuries in a Secret Realm not long ago and had no choice but to use her life-saving technique of teleportation to this Northern Spirit Plains.
A rather handsome young man approached the girl in the white dress, smiling slightly as he extended an invitation.
"Miss Jing, you haven't eaten anything for so long. We've prepared some food, why don't you come and join us?"
"Brother Mu, but I don't have an appetite right now..."
The girl in the white dress casually declined the young man's offer. A hint of disappointment flashed across his face, but his eyes held a touch of admiration as he looked at her.
However, since he was rejected, he didn't insist. Instead, he changed the subject, saying, "We're entering the Northern Spirit Plains tomorrow. Miss Jing, you're new here, why don't you join our team? It'll be good to have someone to look after you."
Miss Jing shook her head again, "No, I will separate from your team after entering the Northern Spirit Plains tomorrow. I plan to act alone."
"Oh, I see. Sorry to bother you."
The young man was slightly taken aback, then smiled wryly, shook his head, turned around, and returned to a campfire, where he sat down somewhat forlornly.
Not long after he sat down, dark clouds suddenly gathered over the continuous mountain range of Northern Spirit Plains, Thunder roared, and howling winds swirled with boundless Spirit Qi. Finally, the gate to heaven opened directly!
Such a spectacular sight naturally shook countless Spiritual Beasts in the mountains, who all prostrated themselves on the ground, their eyes filled with terror as they stared blankly at the sky above.
Within countless camps, countless people were also startled by this sudden commotion, especially the camp where the girl in white and her group were located. Because they were extremely close, the campfires in the camp were directly extinguished by the storm-like Spirit Qi. Fearful and bewildered gazes were cast towards the sky, and trembling questions arose everywhere.
"What's going on? Why is the Spirit Qi suddenly surging like this?!"
"This is terrifying! Could some great calamity be about to occur? I think we should go home."
There is no similar record in ancient texts, so what exactly happened?
No one received an answer; clearly, none of them knew what was going on. Only the Miss Jing gazed thoughtfully at the gate of Spirit Qi.
"This is somewhat similar to what the clan elders described about what happens when powerful beings from Lower Plane enter the Great Thousand World..."
Miss Jing's tone was somewhat uncertain. If her clan elders were here, they would definitely tell her clearly that a powerful being from Lower Plane had indeed descended upon the Hundred Spirits Continent.
And the person who arrived this time was naturally Xiao Ming.
Xiao Ming stepped through the gate of Spirit Qi and appeared in the sky.
At this moment, Xiao Ming was feeling rather unwell. As soon as he led Qing Tan from the Void Space into the Great Thousand World, he felt an extremely pure and high-quality energy surging in from all directions, frantically trying to penetrate his body.
Within his body, the pure Dou Qi was rapidly dissipating at an incredible speed.
"This is the Spiritual Energy Tribulation? If we're unprepared, we'll suffer greatly if we resist."
Xiao Ming sensed the changes within his body, his expression turning somewhat serious.
The so-called Spiritual Energy Tribulation is actually caused by the fact that the energy level of the Lower Plane is not as high as that of the Spirit Qi energy of the Great Thousand World. Therefore, whenever a powerful person from the Lower Plane enters the Great Thousand, Spirit Qi will spontaneously replace the energy in the body of the powerful person, such as Dou Qi and Origin Energy.
A powerful person who is unaware of the truth will naturally fight back desperately when faced with this situation.
After all, who would be happy to have their hard-earned energy dissipate and transform into something else unknown?
This could lead to serious trouble and might even jeopardize one's own foundation.
Let alone those who were unaware, even Xiao Ming knew about the Spiritual Energy Tribulation long ago. Before entering the Great Thousand, he dispersed most of his Dou Qi in advance. This replacement process was still enough to be described as torture.
Leaving aside the sense of loss from his constantly diminishing strength, it's important to understand that every cell in Xiao Ming's body is filled with Dou Qi, or even composed of Dou Qi. Therefore, even if his Dou Qi dissipates, the tribulation of Dou Qi will still descend. This replacement process is like countless tiny figures carving inside him with knives.
The replacement process is neither fast nor slow; unless Xiao Ming explodes his body on the spot to rebuild his physical form, this process will definitely take some time.
After thinking about it, Xiao Ming decided against it.
He doesn't currently have the cultivation methods of the Great Thousand World, nor is there any need to immediately convert to the Spirit Qi system. Moreover, the reconstructed physical body is not as good as his original body, so let's take it slow and accelerate the conversion once he has thoroughly mastered the Spirit Qi system.
Xiao Ming was undergoing Spiritual Energy Tribulation, as was Qing Tan beside him.
However, Qing Tan's strength was not as great as Xiao Ming's. After dispersing the Origin Energy in her body, she transformed it extremely quickly and soon opened her eyes to look at Xiao Ming.
"Master."
"Hmm, the conversion is complete?" Xiao Ming nodded upon seeing this.
"Almost there, I'm only one step away from becoming Supreme. However, without a cultivation method, I can't control my Spirit Qi as freely as I can control my Origin Energy. If I had a cultivation method, I could definitely step into the Supreme." Qing Tan's little face showed some distress.
"Just some Cultivation Method, I'll have them soon," Xiao Ming said, though his strength had plummeted due to the dissipation of his Dou Qi.
But even without using Dou Qi, Xiao Ming is not someone to be trifled with based solely on his Soul Realm. With such strength, obtaining Cultivation Method would be a piece of cake.
"However, before searching for Cultivation Method, it's best to find out where you are."
As Xiao Ming spoke, he glanced at the mountain range below, which had been scattered by the Spirit Qi energy. With a flick of his sleeve, the gathered Spirit Qi dispersed and returned to its original state. He then led Qing Tan into the forest and headed towards a campsite.
