Arrival in the Eastern Sea Cultivation World
He looked up and saw a blue True Dragon that stretched for thousands of miles flying about. Its body was covered with blue-gold scales, and it spiraled up with a divine power that could tear the sky and split the earth. Between its bared fangs and claws, it exuded a vast and ancient aura.
"True Dragon!"
Chen Nianzhi was terrified. Before he could react, he saw an incomparably dazzling sword light slashing down from the horizon.
The light of this sword was dazzling, without any fancy sword moves or sword stances, but it was the most extreme, the purest, and the simplest sword strike.
Let it tear the sky and split the earth, let it roar across the mountains and rivers, let it cover the heavens with its might.
With a single sword strike, I will slay demons True Dragon alike!
As the sword light fell, the Primordial Azure Dragon, its blood staining the sky, crashed onto the earth with an incredulous look in its eyes.
Only then did Chen Nianzhi see a figure in the distant sky sheathing his immortal sword.
The man, dressed in a purple robe, had a tall and slender figure shrouded in mist, obscuring his peerless face. Yet, Chen Nianzhi felt as if she were looking at a true immortal, unable to move an inch.
"Return immediately!"
Suddenly, Chen Nianzhi heard a reprimand and then noticed that Jiang Linglong was looking at him with some confusion.
He then looked around and found that there were no unusual phenomena on Dragon-Slaying Mountain. Whether it was True Dragon or that purple-robed immortal, they were all Ru Meng.
Seeing that his expression was off, Jiang Linglong asked with some concern, "Your soul almost left your body just now, what happened?"
"Didn't you sense it?"
Chen Nianzhi's expression changed slightly, and she told Jiang Linglong about the hallucination she had seen.
After hearing what he said, Jiang Linglong's expression changed slightly, and she exclaimed in surprise, "Heaven-Human Resonance!"
"What is the Heaven-Human Resonance?" Chen Nianzhi's eyes narrowed.
As she explained, Chen Nianzhi quickly understood the concept of the Heaven-Human Resonance.
It turns out that this Heaven-Human Resonance is an extremely profound state. It is said that once a cultivator enters the state of Heaven-Human Resonance, his spirit can merge with the surrounding world.
In this state, one can even sense significant events that have occurred in this world within a certain period of time.
What Bi Ru Chen Nianzhi sensed was the scene of Emperor Jiang slaying the Primordial Azure Dragon six thousand years ago.
Legend has it that Primordial Spirit Dao Lord has received the Heaven and Earth’s Two Souls can always be in a state of Heaven-Human Resonance. In this state, a cultivator's thoughts will be infinitely divergent, and the speed at which they comprehend Cultivation Method and Divine Ability powers will increase more than tenfold.
It is precisely because of this that the Primordial Spirit True Lord are able to comprehend the Power of Principle and ultimately have a glimmer of hope for ascending to immortality.
Aside from the Primordial Spirit Dao Lord, those who can achieve communion between heaven and man are generally beings like the Ji Clan Chief, who are at the half-step Primordial Spirit level, and they can only achieve communion between heaven and man in special circumstances.
Chen Nianzhi's ability to achieve Heaven-Human Resonance at this level, even if only for a brief moment, demonstrates that his spiritual power and comprehension far surpass ordinary people's imagination.
After understanding the situation, Chen Nianzhi took a deep breath and said, "Although the Heaven-Human Resonance has many benefits, it also carries the danger of the soul leaving the body."
"I haven't broken through to the Nascent Soul stage yet. If my soul were to leave my body, I would likely suffer great damage. Fortunately, you pulled me back."
"It's alright." Jiang Linglong smiled. "With this experience, you'll be better prepared next time you enter the Heaven-Human Resonance."
"Um."
Chen Nianzhi nodded. The wonders of Heaven-Human Resonance are numerous. Although he had only entered it for a moment, he had firmly engraved Emperor Jiang's sword into his soul.
As long as he gradually comprehends the principles, his understanding of swordsmanship will advance by leaps and bounds, and he may even be able to create a Great Divine Ability.
Thinking of this, Chen Nianzhi couldn't help but say, "You protect me, I want to try to enter the state of Heaven-Human Resonance again."
As he said this, he quickly emptied his mind, trying to enter a state of Heaven-Human Resonance.
However, this time he found that he could no longer enter it, and he could not make any progress even when his mind was exhausted from sensing it.
After meditating for half a month, Chen Nianzhi shook his head and smiled bitterly, "It seems I was overthinking it. My soul is not strong enough. I need fortuitous opportunity to enter the state of Heaven-Human Resonance."
"Don't rush. You're only at the Golden Core realm stage now. Once you've formed your Nascent Soul, entering the Heaven-Human Resonance will be much easier."
Jiang Linglong comforted him from the side and brewed him a pot of spiritual tea to help him recover his mind.
Since they couldn't Heaven-Human Resonance, the two didn't linger. They rested for a few days in the Dragon-Slaying Mountains before continuing their journey to the East Sea.
They flew over ten million miles across the coast of the East Sea Shore East Sea, finally finding the first Tier 5 Spirit Isle in the Eastern Sea Cultivation World.
"This Spirit Isle is called Nine Rivers Island, and it is one of the Spirit Isle under the command of the Eastern Sea Immortal Alliance."
After entering the Spirit Isle, Jiang Linglong explained the structure of the Eastern Sea Cultivation World to Chen Nianzhi.
The Eastern Sea Cultivation World is an incredibly vast realm, filled with countless islands of all sizes.
Among these islands, the smaller ones are only a few miles in circumference, barely enough to support Human Race, while the larger islands stretch for tens of millions of miles, larger than dozens of continents combined.
In this vast network of countless islands and seas, three races—humans, demons, and monsters—stand side by side, their animosity directed at each other.
In the Eastern Sea Cultivation World, the Human Race was once the most powerful. However, with the continuous invasion of the Demon Abyss, the Human Race has weakened considerably in recent years. Nevertheless, there are still two Dao Lord Holy Land, with a total of three Pure Yang Dao Lord presiding over them.
There are three ancient demons with primordial spirits among the demonic cultivators. One of the three is a celestial demon left over from beyond the realm, while the other two are primordial spirit demonic cultivators native to the Purple Yin Realm.
The Demon Race is currently the most powerful, with a total of five Primordial Spirit Demon Ancestor, and their strength is almost at its zenith.
However, although the Demon Race is powerful, the five Primordial Spirit Demon Ancestor are not on good terms. In addition, the Demon Abyss is located deep in the East Sea, so the five Primordial Spirit Demon Ancestor are naturally unwilling to break ties with the Human Race.
Such a deeply entrenched power made Chen Nianzhi's brow furrow slightly. He couldn't help but say, "The East Sea only has three Nascent Primordial Spirit Dao Lord, how can they possibly withstand the Demon Abyss?"
"You don't need to worry about that." Jiang Linglong shook her head, but also said, "Several Nascent Primordial Spirit Dao Lord from the Eastern Wilderness are stationed at the end of the Demon Abyss."
" In the Central Ancestral Domain, the Western Extreme Ganges-Sand Realm Sands, the Southern Wilderness Cultivation World, and even the Far-Northern Icefields, there are Primordial Spirit Dao Lord who are stationed at the end of the Demon Abyss year-round."
Chen Nianzhi nodded. The Eastern Sea Cultivation World has been destroyed many times, and the Human Race here is indeed weaker. However, as the oldest existence in the Purple Yin Realm, the Human Race usually holds the upper hand in other territories.
Thinking of this, Chen Nianzhi looked at the Marketplace and said, "Let's find a place to stay first, find out what changes have occurred in the Eastern Sea Cultivation World over the years, and then make our plans."
