New Chapter: Physical Roaming Through the Universe

Over the past two years, many people have visited the Old Earth, but they all came and went in a hurry and never saw Wang Xuan. He has since disappeared.

There were once peerless immortals and gods from the Immortal Land, all of whom were very polite and visited Qing Mu's Manor, but they were all disappointed.

New Star, Yong'an City.

"Zhao Zhao, you did meet Wang Xuan two years ago, but now you've lost contact with him and haven't heard from him since?" Wu Yin asked. She had been to the Old Earth, but unfortunately, he had already left by then.

"No more news." Zhao Qinghan shook her head, standing in front of the window on the top floor, which was her office area, overlooking most of the city.

"That's too much. She left right after waking up, and I haven't seen him for five years," Wu Yin said.

Beside her, the Little Fox sat on Zhao Qinghan's special seat, swinging its legs, and happily took out some dried meat from the packaging bag to eat. At the same time, it blinked its big eyes, nodded, and made two noises, as if to say: That's too much.

"How long have you known him?" Wu Yin asked.

"Four years of university, one year in the final stage of the Extraordinary Realm, five years since the Supernatural Finale, it's been ten years already," Zhao Qinghan said, smoothing her hair and turning around.

Traveling alone can be quite lonely. Sometimes, for dozens of days or even months, Wang Xuan won't utter a single word as he traverses the dark sky.

After leaving "Swamp Star" and bidding farewell to the leader of the Mud People Tribe, he embarked on another long journey, encountering all sorts of strange and wonderful things along the way. The universe was vast and had no end.

Over the past two years, he has encountered all sorts of creatures, some hospitable, others eager to hunt him upon first meeting. His journey has been filled with both excitement and adventure.

"Time flies. If one cannot elevate the Essence of Life and evolve to a higher level, there really isn't enough time," Wang Xuan muttered to himself.

For the past two years, he has been visiting life-bearing planets according to the coordinates of the spaceship database controlled by the Mechanical Xiao, but even so, he has missed many places.

The universe is too vast for a human to explore in a lifetime. Even if one has mastered many coordinates, how far can one go? It's just the beginning.

Two days later, he arrived at another place. Looking around, he saw that the entire planet was full of volcanoes, with thick smoke billowing and lava constantly erupting.

"This place is not suitable for human habitation. There are few plants and a large area of active volcanoes. Are there really dragons here?" As the spaceship landed, Wang Xuan looked around. After prior testing, he noticed a strong sulfur smell in the air, which was quite harmful to the human body.

Even in forested areas, things are not quite normal; the trees themselves carry faint flames. In such an environment, naturally, only species adapted to this environment will emerge.

"Boom!"

In the distance, a volcano erupts, billowing smoke and surging lava that spreads to the foot of the mountain, turning those "rivers" a bright red with heat.

"No, it's a group of bull monsters!" Wang Xuan exclaimed in surprise. At first, he really thought it was a natural volcanic eruption, but he found that a group of creatures rushed out of the crater, splashing lava everywhere, and came out to hunt.

They were a group of creatures that resembled cattle, but were not species that had ever been seen in the Old Earth. Each one was very tall, covered with dense red scales, bathed in lava, and usually lived in active volcanoes.

They are now hunting a group of roe deer-like creatures with flames flowing around them, and suddenly lava is rolling.

Suddenly, a dragon's roar resounded, a lava lake split open, waves splashed everywhere, and a huge dragon flew out, about 150 meters long, pounced on the bull monster, and swallowed many of them one by one.

"There really are dragons." Wang Xuan was surprised. They weren't the dragons from the Land of Immortal Dao, but the winged dragons that resembled giant lizards and were associated with magical legends.

This is a Red Dragon with a ferocious head and a huge, powerful body. Unfortunately, it is only at the Supernatural Stage One realm now, having lost its former greater power. As for dragon language magic, it is difficult to unleash it.

"Whoosh..." A hot wind blew up, and the dragon rushed up, about to attack the spaceship.

"This is a mad dragon, no, there's a spear stuck in its head, its mind is severely damaged, so it attacked the spaceship right away."

Wang Xuan didn't make a move. He had the Mechanical Xiao control the heat and unleash Energy Beam. It didn't penetrate the opponent, but merely struck it, electrocuting it until it fell to the ground.

"When this dragon was at its strongest, it must have been quite formidable. The spear on its head is a rare and precious artifact that could be used as material for the First Killing Array."

Wang Xuan stood atop the enormous dragon head, pulled out the spear, and took it away.

Furthermore, he discovered a material called Flame Gold in the lava lake, which is rare in the outside world and can be considered a Heavenly Treasures.

"I'll take it; it's a very strong material."

Six days later, the Silver Spaceship traversed the wormhole and appeared in another realm, landing on a beautiful planet filled with forests and lakes.

There was no fighting this time. He was a guest in the Moon Elf's territory, enjoying various fragrant fruits and watching a group of elven maidens dance under the moonlight.

He traded some of the spoils he had obtained from other planets, such as the Nether Iron Blade and the Crimson Bone Bow, with them for a rare material called "Moonstone".

Of course, all of this was based on the fact that he had stomped on the top of a Stone Mountain and collapsed it when they first met, which made the atmosphere so harmonious.

Otherwise, the Moon Elf was quite arrogant the moment he appeared alone.

Half a month later, Wang Xuan arrived at a planet that piqued his interest. There were humanoid species there, but they were not human. They had huge heads and small bodies.

The environment here isn't very good; normal humans can't survive here. There's some kind of toxin in the air. However, the Large-headed People here live very well.

They do not communicate verbally, but rather through direct spiritual communication. They possess naturally strong spiritual power, which is Wang Xuan's primary objective for this trip.

He wanted to see if this group with extraordinary mental abilities, given their exceptional innate talents, had also developed secret techniques in the mental realm.

The initial encounter was relatively "gentle," without any life-or-death struggle. Wang Xuan simply used brute force to knock out dozens of Large-headed People who were attacking him with their mental powers.

After further "communication," nearly a hundred more Large-headed People collapsed near him, and the atmosphere finally became "harmonious," with them truly communicating and exchanging ideas.

Wang Xuan stayed here for a full half month, visiting many places, and finally obtained three secret methods for cultivating mental strength, which he valued highly.

Because this was indeed different from traditional spiritual mystic arts, he studied it for a long time, and finally looked at the strange spiritual method mentioned at the end of all three mystic arts. It was a scripture that even among the ancestors of the Large-headed People, very few people had mastered.

"It's quite interesting. It confirms what I've read in the scriptures before. It's rather unconventional and can stimulate the subconscious and release strange power from the depths of the mind."

Wang Xuan was well aware of what he lacked. His primordial spirit leaped out of the Misty Sea and rushed towards the true source, but has not yet returned.

He was getting restless and was trying to find a way to summon the "butterfly". To do this, it was necessary to improve his current mental perception. He had been practicing any mental techniques for the past two years and had even collected them from various life-bearing planets in the universe.

Six months ago, he had already rebuilt his spiritual domain, allowing him to Mental Communication without the need for words.

There's another purpose to doing this: if his spiritual power were to increase further, he might be able to appear in the Life Soil. At that time, it might be feasible to take the Imperial Dao Spear in, break through the Life Soil, and directly guide his primordial spirit back.

Furthermore, if his spirit is elevated to a certain level, he can also go to the outer space of the Old Earth, re-enter that Spirit World related to the Dao Control Banner, and search for the banner.

"I'm currently on Physical Roaming. It's been over two years, and I've been traveling alone through interstellar space, where I've seen many civilized species."

Along the way, he saw that the extraordinary had truly faded away. The most powerful Supernatural Being he encountered was only at the third level, and in a few years, even such a creature would completely degenerate and return to mediocrity.

In the blink of an eye, two and a half years had passed since he left his Old Earth. His Mental Power had increased significantly, but he still could not lock onto his destiny land.

There is also a bad change. Five and a half years after the myth was extinguished, his physical body has weakened in the last two years, which is not a good sign.

Even though he rarely used his hands and practiced pure physical techniques such as the Golden Body Art and the five pages of Golden Book of Daoist school every day, he still could not improve any further.

On the contrary, he had a feeling that his body cells were in a state of starvation, and his physical body, which was at the Earth Immortal level, was continuously weakening and falling below its proper level.

He can no longer rely on magic, and he can no longer use profound supernatural powers. Now he can't even use pure physical techniques. He can't protect his physical body and Dao fruit, and the problem is getting more and more serious.

"Ultimately, it's the lack of Super Material that's the fertile ground for the extraordinary to survive," Wang Xuan pondered.

It's not that his physical skills have deteriorated, but rather that this universe lacks the energy he needs. Even when traveling in deep space, he can no longer detect various Mysterious Factor in outer space.

He glanced at the limited number of Good Fortune True Crystal, not wanting to use them in the short term; they were "supplies" prepared for activating the Imperial Dao Spear in life-or-death situations.

"In the end, it still requires extraordinary energy to support it. Otherwise, even an Earth Immortal is still made of flesh and blood and cannot withstand guns and cannons."

How can carbon-based life forms fight against steel warships and withstand energy cannons? Pure flesh and blood bodies need a rich source of energy as their foundation.

"Although I was mentally prepared that before the flame of transcendence is extinguished, the physical body and inner world of the old era will eventually follow the trend of the universe and slowly decay, I am still unwilling to accept it." Wang Xuan frowned.

In fact, there are far too many kinds of energy in the universe, but currently only extraordinary energy is suitable for the Path of Cultivation and can bring powerful strength to the flesh and spirit.

"How can one take in other forms of energy, adapt to them, and give birth to something extraordinary?" he murmured to himself during a solo trip.

He knew very well that many people throughout history had pondered this question but had never found a solution. Otherwise, there would be no saying that extraordinary events are merely accidental. The universe is shrouded in Eternal Night, and the fleeting flame of mythology is very weak.

Over the next few months, Wang Xuan entered a star field and came into contact with many planets related to magical civilizations, as well as some races that had been quite glorious in ancient times.

Wang Xuan was quite interested because these life-bearing planets shared common myths and legends.

In those civilizations, it is said that there is a supreme god who is asleep, who came from the Old Shi and has lived through one era after another.

When the myths shone brightly, he possessed unparalleled divine power and was omnipotent; when the myths faded, he would fall into a long, dark night and slumber.

"Little Bear, check which star system we've arrived in. I'm quite curious about this place and want to explore it."

"This place has long since left the realms of Land of Immortal Dao, the Immortal Land, and the Land of Deities; it is now a desolate wasteland," the Mechanical Xiao updated the cosmic star map in the database, informing the reporter.

"No wonder, in a star field, many inhabited planets have legends of a creature. It's not simple. Was it an extraordinary person, or is there really a supreme god? Let's look for it here."

Four days later, Wang Xuan was alarmed and suspected that he had discovered traces of the Zhong family's spaceship during his travels.

"Impossible, how could they have gotten so far away? What went wrong?" he wondered.
