Detailed Cultivation Realms Beyond the Continent

As soon as the vertical pupils finished speaking, the entire cave abode was suddenly enveloped in an indescribable atmosphere.

Xu Qingying's heart tightened, and every pore on her body constricted, ready to defend herself at any moment. She would unleash her strongest power should the opponent do anything that was detrimental to her.

"Take it easy."

Xu Qingying: "Your words make it hard for this junior not to be nervous."

"What I mean is, what I'm asking you to do could cost you your life. So, are you willing to trade your life for a limitless future?" The voice with vertical pupils was full of temptation.

"Please explain more clearly, Your Excellency, how can I exchange my life for my future?" Xu Qingying said.

If this person with vertical pupils were to say something that sounds cryptic and ambiguous, she would be even more wary. But since the other party was directly speaking about matters of life and death, she felt that what the other party said was sincere enough.

At least it's not so hypocritical.

"The reason I'm training you is so that you can cultivate to the point where you can break free from the limitations of this Cangyun Continent, fly beyond the outer realms, brave the turbulent currents of the outer realms, and bring me back to the Six Heavens Continent, which is called the Divine Continent!"

The mainland has nine levels, from the first to the Ninth Heaven.

Vertical Pupil briefly explained the continental hierarchy to Xu Qingying, then continued, "The Cangyun Continent is only the Two Heavens Continent, while the Divine Continent is the Sixth Heaven! I come from there! Now, with my own abilities, I can no longer return there. I can only train someone to bring me back! Your talent is good, so I chose you! However, not everyone can handle this task. If your strength is insufficient, attempting to cross such a distant outer void carries a very high probability of death!"

At this point, the vertical pupil suddenly became extremely serious. "Therefore, I need you to risk your life to help me go back! Are you willing or not? If you are not willing, I will not force you, but you will also lose the opportunity to become infinitely stronger!"

Upon hearing this, Xu Qingying replied decisively, "I do!"

This aligns with her goals!

Outside the territory!!!

"Very well! In that case, let us draw up a contract! Are you ready?"

Xu Qingying became wary again.

This contract is definitely not that simple!

She could easily agree to a simple verbal agreement; after all, she had become stronger, and if the other party went back on their word, she could simply void it.

"What kind of contract?" Xu Qingying asked.

"Naturally, it's a life-or-death contract! And this contract needs to be imprinted on your soul! It all depends on whether you... dare to take the gamble!" His vertical pupils stared at Xu Qingying, and his words carried a profound meaning.

Xu Qingying fell silent.

Soul!!

Could it be that he's really going to possess someone's body?!

"Your Majesty, are you perhaps trying to possess me?" Xu Qingying stared directly at the vertical pupils and asked expressionlessly.

"If I said I wouldn't, would you believe me or not? Besides, do you think I need to wait until you break through to the Peak Great Emperor Realm before I can possess you?" Vertical Pupil laughed.

Xu Qingying fell silent again.

That's the logic!

"Your Excellency, may I have a few days to consider this?" Xu Qingying did not give an immediate answer.

She needs to prepare some more!

Vertical Pupil: "Alright, I'll give you three days."

Xu Qingying: "Thank you, Your Excellency! I will give you an answer in three days!"

"Okay, do you have any other questions?"

"By the way, Your Excellency, there is one more question I would like to ask you."

"Explain."

"What kind of strength do you need to forcefully cross the outer void, as you just mentioned? There must be other cultivation levels beyond the Peak Great Emperor Realm, right? What level of cultivation is required to safely cross the outer void and reach the Divine Continent you mentioned?"

If possible, she should cultivate to a level of strength that ensures absolute safety before undertaking the task given to her by the Venerable One!

"Above the Peak Great Emperor Realm, there are four realms: the Profound Heaven Emperor Realm, the Tribulation Heaven Emperor Realm, the Divine Crossing Emperor Realm, and the Chaos Emperor Realm. Reaching the Tribulation Heaven Emperor Realm allows one to venture beyond the realms, but one cannot stray too far from the nearby continents, as encountering extraterrestrial turbulence would be certain death. Reaching the Divine Crossing Emperor Realm allows one to roam freely beyond the realms, but if unlucky enough to encounter powerful turbulence, there is still a high probability of death. Only by cultivating to the Chaos Emperor Realm is there a 70-80% chance of being brought back to the Divine Continent!"

Profound Heaven Emperor Realm, Tribulation Heaven Emperor Realm, Divine Crossing Emperor Realm, and Chaos Emperor Realm!

"So these are the four realms above the Emperor Realm..." Xu Qingying noted them down carefully, then quickly asked, "Are there any other realms above these four? Logically, there should be, right? If I break through to a higher realm, will I have a 100% success rate in taking you back to the Divine Continent?!"

"Of course there are! Above the four realms are six more! They are the Divine Realm, Reincarnation Realm, Creation Realm, Undying Realm, Sovereign Realm, and Eternal Realm! However, your thinking is too simplistic. Even if you break through to the Chaos Emperor Realm with the help of Divine Crystal, you cannot break through to a higher realm. No amount of Divine Crystal will be of any use! You can only break through to the Divine Realm by going to the Third Heaven or higher continents and relying on the help of Heavenly Dao!"

Xu Qingying frowned.

"Could I pass through the Three Heavens Continent on my journey, break through my current level, and then complete your subsequent mission?"

"Of course, provided you don't encounter any enemies in the Three Heavens Continent. If you're unlucky, the probability of death is even higher!"

"Alright! Thank you for your clarification, Your Excellency! I will go back and think about it carefully, and then give you an answer!" Xu Qingying had just finished speaking when she suddenly remembered something and quickly asked, "Your Excellency, I have another question!"

"I'm in a good mood today, so please feel free to ask me any questions."

"I want to ask, what specific level of power did the Eternal Night Demon Emperor possess back then? Or, what level of cultivation does my master currently possess?"

She needs to compare and distinguish the different levels of strength.

"Profound Heaven Emperor Realm."

"Oh!" Xu Qingying thought to herself, "So this is only the Profound Heaven Emperor Realm?"

"Your Excellency, the Eternal Night Demon Emperor has improved considerably. According to the intelligence we've received, what do you think his current strength is?" Lin Qingxue quickly asked.

That brat Lu Qing'an insulted her. She was able to rise through the ranks thanks to her own apprentice; could she one day surpass him?

If she could, she had to humiliate him back!!

"Probably the Early Tribulation Heaven Emperor Realm. Unless he displays his strength in front of me, I cannot accurately determine his exact strength. But one thing is certain: no matter how strong he is, he cannot exceed the Peak Chaos Emperor Realm. Even if he comes from beyond the realm, he is not at the Divine Realm, because I have discovered that this Cangyun Continent cannot withstand someone with the strength of the Divine Realm."

"The Tribulation Heaven Emperor Realm? Good! It's just one major realm! Disciple, cultivate diligently, and in time you will be able to catch up with him!" Lin Qingxue said with a smile.

Xu Qingying smiled and nodded.

The vertical-pupiled man said, "The resources I've stored are more than enough for you to cultivate to the Chaos Emperor Realm. Unless he manages to seize 60-70% of the Divine Crystal from the Demon Domain Realm by himself, it's impossible for him to break through to the Chaos Emperor Realm."

Lin Qingxue quickly flattered, "Your Excellency! What about me? Can I, by virtue of your brilliance, cultivate to the Tribulation Heaven Emperor Realm?"

"Don't worry, just focus on your work. It won't be long before I can help you reach the Tribulation Heaven Emperor Realm!"

"Haha! Thank you for your kind words, Your Excellency!!!"

"Alright, I'm tired. Give me your answer in three days."

"Here you go!"

Demon Domain.

In the quiet courtyard.

Lu Qing'an sat in front of the stone pavilion, looking at the Heavenly Dao Puppet standing quietly before him.

He studied it for an afternoon and discovered that the puppet could actually contain a person's soul!

So he directly transferred the woman's soul into the Heavenly Dao Puppet that had become stronger using the Divine Crystal.

"How's this body? It should be enough for you for the time being, right?"

"Thank you for your blessing! This body is quite impressive! Hehe, it has the strength of the Middle Profound Heaven Emperor Realm!" the soul laughed.

Lu Qing'an smiled and nodded.

He had already learned about the subsequent cultivation realms from this soul.

If I'm not mistaken, his current cultivation level should be at the Peak Chaos Emperor Realm, not yet at the Divine Realm.

Unless his ingenious idea comes true and he uses his cultivation to help the World-Stabilizing Divine Pillar improve, he will not be able to increase his cultivation level.

"With only a hundred times the power, one would reach the Peak Chaos Emperor Realm. There are still nearly a million times left. If all of that is used, wouldn't one's cultivation and strength be maxed out, reaching the Eternal Realm?"

Okay, whether it's this so-called Two Heavens Continent or even the Nine Heavens Continent, I should be invincible. If all else fails, we can get divorced again.
