Great Xuanzhuo Realm, Profound Root Wondrous Fruit
The dark clouds above the star Que Shi gathered and had not yet dispersed.
The clouds were extremely thick and hung very low, as if the entire sky were about to collapse.
Que Ten Stars!
The ten stars arranged in a grand formation possess the Mystery Mechanism to seize the creation of heaven and earth. On ordinary days, their starlight flows and shines for thousands of miles. Even in the most remote corner of the Nine Que Great Domain, the radiance of those ten stars suspended in the Void can be seen.
But over these three days, the starlight seemed to be wiped away layer by layer, at first it was just dim, but later it was completely hidden behind the clouds.
The area above and below Que Shi Xing was shrouded in darkness, with only a few rays of sunlight occasionally filtering through the clouds, falling on the palaces and mountains suspended in mid-air, illuminating the jade walls with cold, eerie patterns.
Then came the Void Weeping Blood!
Thunder roared!
Countless people in the Nine-Towers Land are speculating about what kind of changes have occurred at the Ten Stars of the Palace.
Many eyes were fixed on the ten stars.
Those gazes came from extremely far away, some even crossing several great domains and separated by countless layers of Void barriers.
They are all eyes of the strong!
These powerful figures watched indifferently.
Xi Hengsu, dressed in a silver robe, stood in the center of a magnificent palace.
He was extremely handsome, with sharp eyebrows and eyes, a high nose bridge, and lips that looked as if they had been cut by a knife. His black hair was tied up with a silver crown.
But mere good looks are nothing special. Yet this man standing there is like a long sword that has just been drawn from its sheath, its coldness concealed, its sharpness unseen, yet it already makes people dare not look directly at him.
His silver robe was extremely plain, with only very fine star patterns embroidered on the collar and cuffs.
In the past, given Xi Hengsu's status, he should have been wearing the most luxurious robes among the younger generation of the Nine Palaces Xi Family.
But these past few days, he has had no interest in dressing up.
He stood in the hall, his brows furrowed.
The three elders at the head of the table sat upright.
The man on the left is robust, with thick eyebrows, broad eyes, and large bones.
His name Xi Zhong, an elder of the Xi Family in charge of military affairs, whose cultivation had reached the Late-Stage Golden Grotto.
The man on the right was as thin as bamboo, wearing a long gray-blue robe, with a few strands of white hair on his forehead, and a pair of very deep eyes.
His name Xi Wujiu, and he was in charge of external affairs for the Ten Stars of the Palace.
This man has always been extremely calm and composed; even when the Xi Family faced life and death, he rarely showed any sign of being anxious.
But today, his eyes were gloomy, and his breathing was even a little rapid.
The woman in the center wore a moon-colored robe and had a cold and stern face.
Her name is Xi Yue, the younger sister of True Lord, and one of the most powerful people on Que Shixing.
A long silence followed in the hall.
It seemed that neither of them wanted to speak first.
After a long silence, Xi Yue finally spoke.
"What secrets are hidden within the Weiji Grotto-Heaven? Can any of you tell me?"
Her voice was clear and cold, echoing throughout the hall.
Xi Zhong: "True Lord lord will naturally sense impending calamity."
Unexpectedly, the True Lord was injured in that Cave Heaven!
Xi Yue asked, "Where is the Great Sage?"
Xi Wujiu slowly shook his head.
Xi Yue let out a rare sigh.
"Disaster has struck. We, the Ten Stars, must make preparations and set up a great formation as soon as possible to prevent villains from coveting our territory."
"We must ask the clan leader to come out of seclusion again and take charge of the overall situation."
The meeting adjourned.
Xi Hengsu remained standing in the same spot.
His mind raced with thoughts.
The sky above that Cave Heaven was shattered by the aftershocks of the battle between the True Lord and the Great Sage.
Although the Void Turbulence has an order, there will still be wisps of air flowing into it.
Once a crack appears in that Cave Heaven, even more Void Turbulence will fall into it.
That Cave Heaven will perish sooner or later.
"But... we don't know if that young man is already dead."
Xi Hengsu transformed himself and followed the True Lord to the Weiji Grotto-Heaven!
He had seen Chen Lingxi standing in front of the Heaven Gate Sea Cauldron Vessel.
This person was only at the Dao Foundation Early Stage, clearly an insignificant figure, yet before the Great Sage descended, there was no fear in his eyes, and he remained calm and composed.
murderous intent even appeared in his eyes.
Xi Hengsu frowned deeply, completely baffled.
It is utterly absurd that Dao Foundation Realm Establishment ant would harbor murderous intent towards Golden Core True Lord.
However, if this absurd event occurs at the same moment as the Great Sage's descent, then it can no longer be ignored.
"His expression remained unchanged, as if he had known all along... then his eyes flashed with murderous intent, and then the Great Sage descended!"
"Could the descent of the Great Sage's true form be related to Chen Lingxi?"
He thought about it for a moment, then couldn't help but chuckle.
What kind of people are the Great Sage and the True Lord?
How could he possibly be outmaneuvered by a Dao Foundation Realm Establishment stage?
"If this person falls into that Cave Heaven- Cave Heaven due to the Void Turbulence, they will surely die."
"Only..."
Xi Hengsu turned his head and looked at Bai Lingze among the many disciples.
Although Bai Lingze was a member of the Yutai Bai Family, he became his disciple and cultivated in Que Shixing. Because of this, many of the Divine Ability that Bai Lingze was good at came from the Quexing Xi Family.
"Ling Ze is exceptionally talented, and his Killing Power is also quite remarkable."
Chen Lingxi's ability to defeat Lingze demonstrates the extent of his fortuitous opportunity; he should not be underestimated.
"We still need to find out where this person is. If he really has the fortuitous opportunity to leave the Weiji Grotto-Heaven and arrive at the Great Xuanzhuo Realm, we must kill him as soon as possible to prevent him from becoming a real threat in the future."
--
Chen Lingxi opened her eyes.
He then saw a vast sky.
That day was extremely high and far away, more expansive than any sky he had ever seen in his entire life.
The sky was crystal clear, a brilliant blue, like a boundless piece of fine glass stretching from overhead to the horizon.
What shocked him was...
There were three great suns in the sky that day!
Three great suns hung in the Void, one blazing gold, one silver-white, and one crimson, each radiating a different hue of light.
The three suns did not compete with each other; they were separated by a distance, clearly distinct, yet they illuminated the entire sky as if it were daytime.
Chen Lingxi's eyes narrowed slightly at the sight of that silvery-white object, and she couldn't help but turn her head away.
"The Great Xuanzhuo Realm..."
He struggled to sit up and looked down to find himself lying on a gentle slope, surrounded by unknown grasses. The grass blades were long and slender, with faint wisps of light flowing through their veins, flickering like breaths and exhaling a very thin Spiritual Qi.
This Spiritual Qi is omnipresent and incredibly dense.
The moment he took a breath, he felt the Spiritual Qi seep into his mouth and nose like water. He didn't need to consciously breathe in or out; the Thunder-Prison Profound Root in his Dantian began to expand and contract, like a swimming fish greedily absorbing the abundant spiritual energy of the world.
"This is the Great Xuanzhuo Realm."
He murmured something and lay back down on his back.
The warm sunlight fell on him.
At this moment, he was unaware of the deathly aura that constantly weighed on his heart within the Cave Heaven.
It made him feel incredibly relaxed.
After relaxing, he suddenly straightened up and softly called out, "Changle."
No one responded.
The valley was empty, and the wind blew from afar, ruffling the stray hairs on his forehead.
"Liu Changle!"
He called out again, this time louder.
Still no response.
Chen Lingxi was stunned.
"Changle... sent me to the Great Xuanzhuo Realm, but I don't know if she's still alive."
Chen Lingxi remained silent for a while, then stood up.
He turned around, unsure which direction to face, and slowly bowed deeply towards the Void he had faced when he woke up.
"Chen Lingxi never forget your life-saving grace."
He took a deep breath, turned around, and began to look around.
This place is extremely vast.
The mountains are often tens of thousands of feet high, piercing the sky. The snow on their peaks never melts, and when the three suns shine on them in turn, they reflect layers of rosy light.
A great river flows between the valleys, its surface as wide as a mirror. The water is no ordinary water; it shimmers with a soft, bluish light, resembling a brocade spread out from afar.
Colorful clouds hung in the sky, and occasionally a few tiny streaks of light could be seen flashing by, incredibly fast, probably from cultivators flying on magical artifacts.
Everywhere—above the clouds, in the mountains, and along the water's edge—there are traces of inspiration flowing.
Some qi is thick and heavy, like an abyss or a mountain.
"As expected of a cultivation ground, the Spiritual Qi is so abundant."
"No wonder the Weiji Grotto-Heaven is called the Qi-Less Grotto-Heaven! Compared to the Spiritual Qi of this Great Xuanzhuo Realm, the Spiritual Qi in the Cave Heaven is like water vapor in the clouds compared to a rushing sea."
He pondered for a moment, a glint of inspiration seeming to flash in his eyes, as he activated the Qi Observation Technique.
He focused his gaze and looked in all directions.
Upon seeing this, my heart skipped a beat again.
Within a radius of a thousand miles, several powerful auras could be seen faintly appearing and disappearing.
The energy flowed, sometimes rising and sometimes falling. Some of it was like the sun shining brightly in the sky, hanging prominently on a mountain peak; some was like surging subterranean fire, hidden beneath a great river; and there was another that was most obscure, seemingly close yet distant, like a star shrouded in layers of night, only revealing a faint glimmer of light.
"They are all Dao Foundation Realm cultivators."
Chen Lingxi an eyebrow.
"The Great Xuanzhuo Realm is indeed different."
He suppressed the shock in his heart and carefully concealed his aura before choosing a deserted mountain, entering the mountain, and finding a cave.
He sat cross-legged in the cave and activated his Wandering Sight Divine Ability!
His Sight-Roaming range had already exceeded 300,000 li.
"No."
"We also cannot sense Lin Suri's location, nor can we perceive Ying Xian."
He opened his eyes, somewhat disappointed, yet feeling that this was to be expected.
The Great Xuanzhuo Realm is too vast.
This world is so vast that throwing the entire Cave Heaven into it would be like throwing a pebble into the sea.
Lin Suri, Daoist Shurong were taken away by the Rebirth Pool, but their whereabouts are unknown. Meanwhile, Emperor Daye...
"Emperor Daye may still be in that Cave Heaven."
He shook his head, deciding not to think about it anymore.
There is only one urgent matter at hand.
Spiritual practice.
"I will cultivate here, refine the third spiritual energy on the Immortal Ranking, and then... acquire that Immortal Husk..."
Chen Lingxi then closed his eyes and began his cultivation.
He sat in that cave for two years.
He refined some of the power of the Immortal Husk, which merged with the spiritual energy of the Immortal Ranking. The spiritual energy, which was originally as solid as ice, slowly transformed into warm Dao Origin, which surged into the Dragon-Stripping Dao Platform.
As if nourished by celestial dew, the Thunder-Prison Profound Root climbed upwards little by little, and a tiny, tender fruit slowly formed on its branches.
The fruit was pale golden in color, with dense breccia patterns on its surface, and a layer of extremely mysterious spiritual light flowed over it, like a miniature, unleashed lake of thunder.
Profound Root Wondrous Fruit.
It's done.
At that moment, Chen Lingxi the pot, and his consciousness sank into the Divine Chamber.
He closed his eyes and looked inward, and sure enough, he saw deep within the Divine Chamber, the tadpole-shaped characters used to brand "Sight-Roaming") flashing continuously.
"The third Sight-Roaming is about to come out."
