The journey back to the Morbury star domain took twelve years. Shi Lan spent most of her time in closed-door cultivation, occasionally emerging to guide Bian Qin and Tian Bai in their training.
Bian Qin's cultivation had already reached the late stage of the Nascent Soul realm. With the help of the Essence Demon True Canon, he had condensed a demonic domain, and his cultivation was progressing smoothly.
Tian Bai's cultivation was somewhat slower. After changing cultivation techniques, he had only just entered the early stage of the Nascent Soul realm. However, with the help of the Pill Demon Compendium, his physical body was incredibly robust, and his cultivation was steadily improving.
The Tianyan Sect had grown significantly. The number of disciples had increased to over a thousand, with a hundred of them having entered the Nascent Soul realm. Among them, there were even a few who had condensed demonic domains.
The Qiongluo Realm's heavenly might had been subtly adjusted by Shi Lan, allowing the disciples to cultivate in a safer environment. The number of disciples who perished in the tribulation lightning had decreased significantly.
The Asura clan had also grown. The young Asuras had all entered adulthood and undergone the baptism of the War Blood Pool. They had all reached the early stage of the Nascent Soul realm, with the most outstanding among them reaching the late stage.
These Asuras were all powerful beings with extraordinary talent. Shi Lan had high hopes for them and planned to nurture them carefully.
After twelve years, the spaceship finally returned to the Morbury star domain. Shi Lan, with Karin and the others, stepped out of the spaceship and stood on the vast, boundless sea.
The sea was as blue as before, and the sky was as clear as before. The only difference was that the number of warships patrolling the sea had increased significantly.
Shi Lan looked at the warships in the distance, her expression slightly cold. She had already decided to go to the Great Martial World this time. She couldn't allow the Lan clan to continue causing trouble.
"Karin, you can go back now," Shi Lan said, turning to Karin.
"Thank you, my lord, for your kindness. I will never forget it." Karin bowed deeply, her eyes filled with gratitude.
She had been by Shi Lan's side for more than a decade, and Shi Lan had treated her with kindness. She had never forgotten the warmth and comfort she had experienced.
"Take care of yourself," Shi Lan said, smiling. "I hope we can meet again."
"Definitely," Karin replied firmly, her gaze filled with determination.
After bidding farewell to Shi Lan, Karin returned to the spaceship, ready to return to the Interstellar Federation.
"Bian Qin, Tian Bai, you two will stay here and guard the Qiongluo Realm. I will go to the Great Martial World alone," Shi Lan said, turning to the two of them.
"Master, I will go with you," Tian Bai said, his expression serious.
"Master, I will also go with you," Bian Qin said, his expression equally serious.
"No need," Shi Lan shook her head. "The Great Martial World is not a place for you two to go. I will return soon."
"Master, you must be careful," Tian Bai said, bowing slightly.
"Master, you must be careful," Bian Qin also bowed slightly.
Shi Lan nodded, turned, and stepped into the sea, disappearing in an instant.
...
...
The Great Martial World was a vast, boundless world, filled with countless sects and families. The world's power was divided into three tiers: the Great Martial World, the Divine Martial Great World, and the Martial Great World.
The Great Martial World was the highest tier, with the strongest powerhouses. The Divine Martial Great World was the middle tier, and the Martial Great World was the lowest tier.
The Great Martial World was a world of cultivation, where the powerhouses were all cultivators. The Divine Martial Great World was a world of cultivation and martial arts, where cultivators and martial artists coexisted. The Martial Great World was a world of martial arts, where martial artists were the majority.
The Great Martial World was the most mysterious of the three worlds, with the least information about it. Even the Interstellar Federation's Great Martial World Research Institute had only gathered a few scattered pieces of information.
