Cultivating for a hundred lifetimes to ascension - Chapter 775: 457: From the Tianzhu Realm

Chapter 775: Chapter 457: From the Tianzhu Realm

Daoist Ou Feng paused, then said with a serious expression, “Because this poor Daoist just happened to see it!”

Upon hearing this, Zhao Sheng’s gaze sharpened, and he immediately sighed and straightforwardly admitted.

“Indeed, this old man stumbled upon the Void Realm by a fortuitous coincidence.”

Seeing this, Daoist Ou Feng became extremely excited and eagerly asked, “Brother Tianqiong, do you happen to have seen the Void Realm’s Array Base of the Cross-border Array? What do they look like?”

Zhao Sheng heard this, hesitated, then shook his head and said, “That I have not!”

“Ah, what a pity!” Daoist Ou Feng said in a downcast tone, repeatedly wringing his hands and sighing over the missed opportunity.

Seeing this scene, Zhao Sheng let go of his wariness towards this person but also felt somewhat speechless.

Daoist Ou Feng truly lived up to the name of an “Array Maniac,” never thinking about anything else, completely obsessed with the profound Array Dao behind the Cross-border Great Array.

After that, Zhao Sheng perfunctorily exchanged a few words, then hastily sent Daoist Ou Feng on his way.

Shortly after, Zhao Sheng entered the Cultivation Room, casually activated the Barrier, and then sat down on the top-grade spirit stone bed. With a single flick of his hand, a foot tall grey-white Nine Nether Tower appeared in his palm.

Merely entering and exiting the Forgotten Heaven once had greatly diminished the spiritual nature of the Nine Nether Tower. The “Black Hole” that previously seemed to engulf all light surrounding the tower had now dissipated like smoke, evidently exhausting the energy accumulated over countless years.

Zhao Sheng separated a strand of Divine Thought and gently wrapped it around the top of the tower.

Unexpectedly, this time the Divine Thought felt no resistance at all, easily penetrating the walls of the tower and directly “seeing” into the internal space.

The inside of the Nine Nether Tower was very spacious, only filled with a cloud of thin Dark Light. In the center of the light cloud hung a slightly curled strand of dark gold hair, continuously emitting an indescribable aura, and the surrounding space was even slightly twisted and blurred.

Seeing this strand of dark gold hair, Zhao Sheng suddenly realized everything and instantly connected all of his bizarre experiences.

The Dark Gold Giant Pillar he had traversed before turned out to be nothing more than an inch-long hair.

Reflecting on the past travelers of over a month, Zhao Sheng found it unbelievable.

Looking at the hair again, he couldn’t wait to use his Divine Thought to try to move it out of the tower.

Who would have known… The Divine Thought swept past and came up empty!

Zhao Sheng was stunned for a moment, and then released several strands of Divine Thought, all of them entwining towards the Dark Gold Monkey Hair.

The result was the same again—empty!

After many repeated attempts, they all ended in failure.

Although the Great Saint’s hair appeared under the Divine Thought, it was like a light shadow, seemingly insubstantial and elusive, as if it was not in the present space-time but hidden in some unknown space-time.

Thirty minutes later, Zhao Sheng sat with empty hands on a jade bed carved entirely from top-grade spirit stones, his expression somewhat melancholic.

Once awoken from a dream, he… was directly returned to his original place.

At this moment, his cultivation had astonishingly fallen from the Seventh Realm Peak back to the Sixth Realm Early Stage.

The Thought Realm was ultimately a fantasy realm, and all the experiences within had turned into bubbles as soon as he returned to the real world.

No, that’s not right; everything else was illusory, only the memories were real!

Having experienced the breakthrough once, the Nascent Soul Seventh Realm was no longer a problem for Zhao Sheng.

Now, what he needed to do was to raise his own Mana. When the time came, everything would naturally fall into place.

With this thought in mind, Zhao Sheng’s expression hardened, and he flicked the spirit stone bed beneath him…

Boom!

In a flash, the exceedingly pure Spiritual Energy surged up like a flood from below, violently pouring into his body, and in an instant, a “torrential downpour” began in his Dantian, with a large amount of rainwater falling into the Core Energy Sea, soon transforming into drops of amber-like pure Mana.

At the same time, a Top-grade Spirit Stone sealed with “Radiant Light” fell into Zhao Sheng’s hands.

As Divine Thought entered it, a stream of “Radiant Light” penetrated the shell of the spirit stone, drilled into the Taiyin Lung Meridian of his hand, then followed the meridian downwards, eventually flowing into the Qi Sea of the Dantian…

…

Unaware of the passing years during cultivation, two months quickly passed by.

On this day, the doors of the cave mansion swung open with a bang, and Zhao Sheng rushed out from within, his whole body blazing with billowing light, soaring a thousand zhang in a single leap, and descending to the center of the Earth Cave, to the edge of the Cross-border Transmission Array.

At this moment, Daoist Ou Feng was sitting cross-legged on the outside of the Great Array, deeply engrossed in contemplation of the Array.

Above his head, the Infinite Treasure slowly rotated, casting down swathes of golden light, forming a massive light screen.

Within the depths of the light screen, an endless succession of intricate Array patterns emerged… some complex, some simple, some incomplete, twisting into existence and fading away without end.

Zhao Sheng stood behind and watched silently for a while, not disturbing the Array Maniac, and quietly flew away.

Shortly after, Zhao Sheng arrived at Dark Star Cave.

His appearance immediately startled the three Yama, who all flew out of their cave mansion, stepped forward, and paid their respects.

Seeing that the three were not out of the ordinary, Zhao Sheng briefly explained and sent the Three Nascent Souls away.

After the three returned to the cave mansion, Zhao Sheng walked to the west side of the cave, formed a series of hand seals, and launched nearly a hundred streams of Mystic Light, unlocking the sealed Formation.

As layer upon layer of yellow light barrier gradually cracked open a narrow passage, Zhao Sheng flashed and entered.

The next moment, the passage vanished, and the yellow light barrier closed with a bang.

Zhao Sheng walked to the center of the Formation, looking down at the small Crystal tree only three feet tall on the ground, a smile forming on his face.

Seemingly sensing the newcomer, thousands of Crystal Silks on the Devil Mushroom Tree began to move without wind, the tips all lining up and aiming at the newcomer’s chest and abdomen and the Six Yang Heads.

Zhao Sheng’s right hand swept across his waist, then with a flick of his wrist, more than a dozen fist-sized top-grade Spirit Stones instantly flew into the air.
