First Steps into the Great Thousand World, Elder Luo
In the Plane Channel.
Purple-Gold Light swept past, and two figures walked side by side. The surrounding Plane Torrent were easily broken through by the Purple-Gold Light and split into two directions.
"Brother, we've been traveling through this passage for almost two months now."
Xiao Yan, dressed in a black robe, glanced around at the ever-obscure mist and frowned.
"Hmm, I feel like we're almost there."
Xiao Yuan still maintained his dashing appearance in flowing white robes; time had not left any trace on the two Dou Di powerhouses.
Although both of them now have children, if you disregard their temperament and only look at their appearance, they are just two young people in their early twenties, full of youthful vigor.
"Huh?"
Suddenly, Xiao Yuan turned his gaze to the side.
He sensed a very familiar aura. Was that the Life and Death Ancestral Symbol?
Could it be that...?
At the same time, in the direction Xiao Yuan was looking.
A beam of light flashed by, and within that rainbow light, three figures appeared and disappeared. Lin Dong held Qing Tan in one hand, carefully sensing the fluctuations from that mysterious world within Qing Tan's body, and then adjusted his direction.
They have been traveling between dimensions for almost a month.
"Brother Lin Dong, we haven't arrived yet?"
Looking around at the Plane Torrent of planes, Qing Tan asked, bored.
"It'll be soon."
Lin Dong smiled, then his expression suddenly changed. He slowed down his travel speed and looked at a very distant place. The Eye of the Plane his brows.
My gaze pierced through the dimensional mist, and suddenly, in the distance, I saw two figures.
One of them was dressed in a black robe, with a huge Black Ruler on his back. Lin Dong sensed an extremely hot fluctuation emanating from his body.
The other was dressed in white robes and was even more handsome than Little Marten. However, he seemed to have noticed him first and his gaze swept over him.
Seeing this, Lin Dong smiled and cupped his hands in greeting, but immediately afterward, he sensed a familiar and strange fluctuation emanating from the other party.
However, the next moment, to Lin Dong's incredulous gaze, the white-robed youth reached out and the Life and Death Ancestral Symbol in his body flew out directly!
ah?
Even though the mysterious world was within reach, Lin Dong still had to stop and look solemnly in the direction where the Life and Death Ancestral Symbol had flown.
Ling Qingzhu had already placed her hand on the hilt of her sword, and Qing Tan had also taken out Black Giant Scythe.
"Strange, he seems to be very close to the Life and Death Ancestral Symbol."
Lin Dong tightened his grip on the two women's hands slightly, signaling them not to make any rash moves.
"Long time no see!"
Looking at the Life and Death Ancestral Symbol that flew into his hand, Xiao Yuan was filled with emotion.
Unexpectedly, the cycle of reincarnation under the Bodhi Ancient Tree possessed such power that it actually sent him on a journey through the ancient times of the Tianxuan Continent.
As the Former Ancestral Symbol Controller, Xiao Yuan's understanding of the Life and Death Ancestral Symbol is no less than that of the Lord of Life and Death. Even without the Bodhi Ancient Tree, Xiao Yuan would not truly perish, but would enter the cycle of reincarnation. After recovering his power, he would be able to awaken the Samsara Seal, regain his memories, and his strength would directly recover to the peak of the Second Samsara Tribulation.
"Hehe, sorry, it's been many years since I've seen the Life and Death Ancestral Symbol, I'm a bit presumptuous."
After expressing his feelings, Xiao Yuan flicked his finger and sent the Life and Death Ancestral Symbol back. Then, he led Xiao Yan through the mist and arrived in front of Lin Dong and the other two.
Lin Dong retrieved the Life and Death Ancestral Symbol. Judging from the information fed back by the symbol, the young man before him had clearly been the controller of the Life and Death Ancestral Symbol. Therefore, he looked at Xiao Yuan with suspicion and couldn't help but ask:
"Are you a senior from the Tianxuan Continent? But why is there no Origin Energy fluctuation on your body?"
"Because I am not from the Tianxuan Continent, I am naturally not subject to reincarnation. You have the aura of Qingzhi's Azure Sky Dragon Transformation Art on you, and he is still alive."
Xiao Yuan smiled upon hearing this and asked.
"Do you know Qing Zhi- senpai?"
Lin Dong was overjoyed. He hadn't expected to meet a senior from the Tianxuan Continent on his way to the New World!
"This junior, Lin Dong, greets senior!"
Lin Dong cupped his hands in a salute.
Qing Tan and Ling Qingzhu behind him also bowed.
"Hey, no need for that. I think you should Ancestral Realm. In the path of cultivation, strength is paramount. Besides, I'm not like Qing Zhi who taught you martial arts and has the grace of mentorship. We can just be equals." Xiao Yuan waved his hand and said with a smile, "My name is Xiao Yuan, and this is my younger brother Xiao Yan."
Brother Lin!
Xiao Yan could tell that Lin Dong's strength was definitely no weaker than his own, and might even be stronger. So he took the initiative to cup his hands and greet him with a smile.
"Brother Xiao!"
Lin Dong also sensed the explosive heat brought by the Ultimate Flame contained within Xiao Yan's body, and he also bowed in salute.
"Brothers Xiao, this is my wife Ling Qingzhu, and my sister Lin Qingtan."
Then, Lin Dong introduced Xiao Yuan Xiao Yan to them with a smile.
"Brother Lin Dong, are you also heading to that New World? Why don't you travel together? That way you can look after each other, what do you say?"
Xiao Yuan naturally knew Lin Dong and had read Wu Dong Qian Kun, but after so many years of cultivation, he had almost forgotten his memories from before he transmigrated.
"Brother Xiao, uh..."
Lin Dong subconsciously wanted to call him "senior" again, but remembering what Xiao Yuan had just said, he wanted to change his address. However, he suddenly realized that the two people in front of him were both Brother Xiao, and he was a little embarrassed and at a loss for what to do.
"Since you are from the Tianxuan Continent, just call me Yuan Xiao. I don't know if Qingzhi has mentioned this name to you before."
Xiao Yuan noticed Lin Dong's predicament and found it somewhat amusing, but he didn't let him continue to put himself in a difficult position.
"So it was Senior Yuan Xiao? Senior Qing Zhi once said that he was inspired by you to create the Azure Sky Dragon Transformation Art Technique. Unfortunately, when you were undergoing the Third Samsara Tribulation, you were ambushed by the Outer Realm Evil Clan. In the end, you sent the Life and Death Ancestral Symbol into reincarnation. After giving your all to severely injure the Second Prince and the Third Prince, you tragically perished."
Later, after I advanced to the Ancestral Realm, Senior Qing Zhi asked me to use the Yin Yang Life and Death Plate you once used to search for your traces in the cycle of reincarnation. Logically speaking, given your status as the controller of the Life and Death Ancestral Symbol, you shouldn't have had no opportunity to enter the cycle of reincarnation, but I found nothing. I never expected to meet you here!
Lin Dong suddenly realized and said with great emotion.
"Hehe, I wasn't originally from the Tianxuan Continent. After I died, I returned to my original world, so naturally I won't go back. Alright, stop calling me senior. Let's walk and talk."
Xiao Yuan smiled and nodded, and then Purple-Gold Light spread out, protecting everyone within it, and sped off towards the New World.
"Thank you very much, Brother Yuan! Qing Tan is from that New World and can guide us."
Lin Dong didn't stand on ceremony. Since he was a senior who was on good terms with Senior Qing Zhi, and they were so destined to be friends, it was certainly a good thing.
After saying that, he carefully sensed the fluctuations within Qing Tan's body, and then helped Xiao Yuan correct the direction of their flight. After two and a half hours of flying, the group had gotten to know each other quite well, and they had arrived at their destination!
The exit of the Plane Channel resembled a shimmering curtain of water. Enveloped in the Purple-Gold Light condensed by Xiao Yuan's Dou Qi, the group of five easily pierced through this barrier like arrows, officially stepping into that mysterious and vast New World — the Great Thousand World.
However, as soon as he entered, a strong Space Storm began to tear at Xiao Yuan's Dou Qi.
"It's Plane Turbulence!"
Xiao Yuan's expression changed, and he immediately activated the Azure Sky Dragon Transformation Art, revealing his Dragon-Phoenix Body. Then, a silver luster that Lin Dong was extremely familiar with began to shimmer from Xiao Yuan's purple-gold dragon scales!
It's actually a power similar to the Space Ancestral Symbol?
Lin Dong was somewhat surprised and was about to ask Xiao Yuan if he needed help when he saw Xiao Yuan open his mouth and swallow the four of them whole. Then, his fighting Dou Qi erupted, and the Space Power formed an energy membrane that repelled the surrounding turbulence. Then, he flicked his dragon tail and shot out!
Inside Xiao Yuan's body, Lin Dong already trusted Xiao Yuan to some extent, and sensing that Xiao Yuan meant no harm, he wasn't too panicked. He simply looked at Xiao Yan and asked with some confusion:
"Brother Yuan, is your true form Dragon Clan?"
Even he, Azure Sky Dragon Transformation Art, could not transform himself into a true ancient dragon with Dragon Bloodline.
Moreover, he could sense that Xiao Yuan possessed more than just Dragon Bloodline!
"Third Brother is not Dragon Clan, but he does have some of the most noble bloodlines of the Dragon Clan. The only difference is that Dragon Clan can transform their bodies by chance, while Third Brother needs to use the Azure Sky Dragon Transformation Art."
Xiao Yan explained.
"Although this Space Turbulence can't harm us, it's not difficult to separate us. Third Brother is doing this so that we won't be separated and can look after each other in the New World."
Xiao Yan continued.
"Yes, thank you very much, Brother Yuan!"
Upon hearing this, Lin Dong also spoke to the void above.
After being swallowed whole by Xiao Yuan, what they faced was not internal organs, but a boundless Small World.
Xiao Yuan didn't even know what level he had reached in his cultivation.
However, the interconnected Qi Mansion within his body, through years of cultivation, are showing signs of merging into one.
This Small World evolved from the Qi Mansion.
"You're welcome!"
Xiao Yuan chuckled.
In reality, if Lin Dong actively resisted, it was unlikely that he would be able to swallow Lin Dong whole.
He was willing to protect Lin Dong, and Lin Dong was willing to trust him; this was the best outcome.
About fifteen minutes later, Xiao Yuan traversed the Space Turbulence and finally saw a bright light before his eyes. He tore through space and landed in an unfamiliar place.
Here stands an incomparably majestic city, exuding an ancient aura. Needless to say, this city must have experienced many vicissitudes and has its own history.
The city is bisected by a raging Great River Great River flows through it and meanders around the city as it reaches the outskirts, forming a loop that encircles the city.
This Great River is incredibly mysterious; it has colors like stars, and sometimes it is even brighter than the starry sky. The Great River roars and nourishes the city.
But before Xiao Yuan could release the four people inside his body, a vast energy completely different from that of the Douqi Continent and the Tianxuan Continent rushed towards him like a raging tsunami.
This is not the violent and chaotic torrent in the Plane Channel, but a more refined, more vast, and also more assimilative, higher-level power—the spiritual power unique to the Great Thousand World!
This surge of spiritual energy is both a blessing and a test for the powerful beings from the Lower Plane.
It surged and washed over Xiao Yuan's body, attempting to completely assimilate the Dou Qi he had cultivated into spiritual power.
Xiao Yuan's expression changed, and he quickly circulated his six energies, forming Six-Colored Robe on his body to protect himself.
"Don't come out yet, this world is assimilating my Dou Qi!"
He transmitted his voice to the four people inside his body.
"Brother, are you alright?"
Xiao Yan quickly asked.
Lin Dong also asked with concern.
"Don't worry, we can still hold on. We need to find a local to ask about the situation, otherwise it'll be troublesome!"
Xiao Yuan offered a reassuring remark, then descended towards the city below.
However, he had just landed a little when he suddenly stopped.
Because, right before his eyes, a figure appeared without warning!
Xiao Yuan was startled.
How could this person suddenly appear in front of me without disturbing my soul perception?
He examined it closely.
This was an Old Man in Black Robe, with white hair and beard. Although his face was old, he exuded a kind of awe-inspiring majesty, which even caused the space around him to tremble slightly!
After seeing Xiao Yuan's face clearly, the Old Man in Black Robe was taken aback.
Having lived this long, this was the first time he had ever seen anyone who could rival the beauty of the Goddess of the Luoshen, and that was a man!
But he quickly put on a friendly smile and said:
"Young friend, your aura is powerful, but there is no fluctuation of spiritual power. Could you be a prodigy from Lower Plane?"
"Indeed, I am Xiao Yuan. May I ask your name, senior?"
Xiao Yuan saw the Old Man in Black Robe smile kindly and cup his hands in greeting, but he was secretly on guard.
"I am Luo Tianshen. This place is called Luoshen City, the most core holy city of the Luoshen Clan. I am the patriarch of this Luoshen Clan."
Luo Tianshen said with a faint smile.
"So it's Elder Luo. I have only recently broken through to the next level. I passed through the Space Channel and dodged the Space Turbulence to get here. I am completely lost and don't know what to do. Could you please give me some pointers?"
Being unfamiliar with the place and its inhabitants, Xiao Yuan was no longer as carefree as he had been in the Douqi Continent, and his demeanor became quite humble in his speech.
"Young friend Xiao Yuan, there's no need to panic. This is the Great Thousand World. Many geniuses from Lower Plane come here after breaking through. Due to the different cultivation systems, the energy of all Lower Plane will be gradually assimilated into the purer spiritual energy of the Great Thousand World. You just need to let the energy in your body assimilate."
Luo Tianshen had seen many geniuses from Lower Plane planes, and many of them were quite arrogant. It was rare to see a young man like him who could clearly give him a sense of danger, yet was also so polite.
"So that's how it is."
Hearing this, Xiao Yuan breathed a sigh of relief. That made sense, since there was no Dou Qi in the Great Thousand World for him to absorb.
"If you trust me, young friend, you may Temporary Residence with the Luoshen Clan for a while. Firstly, I can help you assimilate spiritual power; secondly, you also need to learn about some information about the Great Thousand World."
Luo Tianshen smiled, looking at the young man in front of her whose appearance was comparable to that of Luoshen, and felt a surge of enthusiasm in her heart.
The prodigies of the Lower Plane have all achieved extraordinary things, and their future achievements will probably be no less than their own!
Moreover, Xiao Yuan's stunning appearance and his presence in the holy city area of the Luoshen Clan make him truly destined to be with the Luoshen Clan. If they could take this opportunity to win him over, it would be a good thing for the Luoshen Clan!
"Very well, then this junior will trouble Elder Luo for a few more days!"
Xiao Yuan cupped his hands in greeting and said with a smile.
