As the Universe Turns - Chapter 1219
Chapter 1219 Tianming Sect
Xiao Chen slowly walked into the cave, wondering who this person was. Who were the people who were chasing after him just now? I think it’s the cultivation force in this sea of illusions …
Right now, he didn’t know anything about the Bone Erosion Lands, and now, he might be able to learn something from this person.
Thinking of this, Xiao Chen no longer hesitated. His palm condensed and pressed down on this person’s head. He used a divine ability similar to the Soul Searching Technique. Not long after this person died, the top layer of origin soul memories did not dissipate so quickly and could be detected by him.
“Xuan Yue, you must be careful on your way to Tianming Sect this time. Give this’ Zhu Que Mirror ‘to Elder Xingxiu. He will definitely take care of you more in the future …”
“Master, don’t worry. In the future, I will definitely let the Stargate return to its former glory …”
“Mm … Xuan Yue, you have to take care of yourself. Also, last time, you gave Xuan’er the chance to go to the Second Grade Domain. After meeting her this time, remember that the two of you were Immortal Couples appointed by the Elders back then. You have already sealed each other’s blood essence in the Concentric Jade. You can only die one person in your lifetime, do you understand?”
“Master, don’t worry, I definitely won’t let Junior Sister Xuan’er down …”
“Junior Sister Xuan’er, I’m here. Wait for me.”
“Master …”
“Xuan’er …”
…
Xiao Chen slowly withdrew his spiritual sense. In just a short while, he had learned a lot about the Bone Corrosion Lands from his primordial spirit memories.
It turned out that there were four cultivation domains in the Land of Mirage Sea, and this person’s name was Xuan Yue. He was traveling from the Starnet Gate of the Third Realm to the Tianming Sect of the Second Realm. However, he was killed on the way.
It was very difficult to go from the Third Grade to the Second Grade. Unless it was some powerful sect or other ordinary sect, there was only one slot every other A grade.
This Xuan Yue was originally a very outstanding disciple of the Starnet Sect, but when it came to the first rank, he gave the spot to his immortal junior sister, Zi Xuan’er, to go to the Second Grade Domain.
Unexpectedly, he had obtained the qualifications this time, but was followed by people from other sects. In the end, he was killed in this mountain range. As for what the other party’s goal was, was it to seize the qualifications in his hands or something else, Xiao Chen didn’t know.
It seemed that the Bone Erosion Ground was indeed somewhat dangerous. Xiao Chen frowned slightly. In the blink of an eye, he discovered that this man called Xuan Yue actually looked somewhat similar to him. Even his hair was as white as his.
At this moment, Xiao Chen suddenly remembered something. Before leaving, Ku Lingzi said that when he arrived at the Bone Erosion Lands, he was no longer the master of Lustless Heaven.
This sentence has two meanings. One is that he is weak in the Bone Corrosion Lands, unlike in Xianyuan Five Realms, and the other is that his identity can be changed at will …
Since that’s the case, then why don’t he stay in the Bone Corrosion Lands as “Xuan Yue” from now on and think of a way to get a spot to Ancient Immortal Realm …
This method was very wonderful. As a result, he had a “reasonable” identity in the Land of Bone Corrosion. Now that he had comprehended the “Return to Truth Realm”, he could easily conceal his cultivation. Even a newcomer to the Saint Realm might not be able to see through his true and false state.
As for Xuan Yue’s cultivation, he had just entered the Harmonious Stage, so he could control his cultivation aura within the Harmonious Stage. Even a sage would not be able to detect it.
After making up his mind, Xiao Chen no longer hesitated and took out another bundle from his sleeve. There were several important items inside.
First, this person’s soul jade token represented his identity.
Second, it was a Second Grade Mirage Sea Order. Only with this item as evidence would one be able to enter Tianming Sect;
The third was a scarlet red mirror with Zhu Que printed on its back. There was some magic power in the mirror, presumably for Tianming Sect Elder Xingxiu’s Zhu Que Mirror;
Fourth, there was a letter of recommendation, and there was also a pearl that glowed with a dark green light. This item was called the “Jade Sea Pearl”, and it was Xuan Yue’s gift to Junior Sister Zi Xuan’er.
The remaining item was half a concentric jade with a wisp of blood essence sealed inside. It must be his junior sister Zi Xuan’er’s concentric jade. The others were some maps and other things.
After bringing all these things with him, Xiao Chen looked at the man on the ground once again. From the moment he set foot on the path of cultivation, he was filled with many dangers. Probably … this was also a calamity that this person had been struck by. However, he was unable to overcome this calamity.
But now, he couldn’t let this person “die” just like that, because once this person’s soul flame was completely extinguished, then the Life and Death Soul Lamp would also be extinguished. At that time, if he acted as this person, he would probably cause some trouble.
He raised his palm and controlled life and death. A strong wind blew through the entire cave. There were signs of life on that person’s body. However, these signs of life were only temporary. Once Xiao Chen stopped casting, he would immediately “die”.
Suddenly, Xiao Chen slashed his finger and another strand of profound energy flew out. Instantly, it turned into ice and sealed this person’s body, so as to keep the soul fire unextinguished.
After everything was done, it was already dark outside, and Xiao Chen did not delay any longer. With some of Xuan Yue’s memories, he was obviously much more familiar with the Bone Erosion Lands. He needed to go to Tianming Sect as soon as possible, so it was not appropriate to delay any longer.
…
Three days later, Xiao Chen arrived at the foot of Mount Tianming Sect. The entire Mirage Sea was extremely large, but his speed was far from being comparable to the original Xuan Yue.
Raising his head, he saw towering mountains. On the mountains, he could vaguely see some palace buildings. Tianming Sect was a cultivation sect in the Second Realm. Naturally, it was not comparable to those sects in the Third Realm. However, it was far inferior to Xuanqing Sect.
“Stop! Who is it!”
Just as he was about to step forward, two figures suddenly flew down from the mountain. The two of them were dressed in black robes and their cultivation levels were average. Xiao Chen glanced at the two of them and did not say anything else. He took out the Soul Jade Token, the Second Grade Mirage Sea Token, and the Sect Recommendation Letter and handed it over to the two of them.
“Starnet Sect, Xuan Yue …”
When the two of them saw that they were from the Third Grade Domain, their gazes immediately showed some obvious discrimination. They said calmly, “Follow us.”
Xiao Chen didn’t say anything else. He followed the two of them up. Actually, their cultivation levels were not as high as the Profound Moon before. If Xuan Yue was here, she would definitely reveal the aura of the Harmony Stage and intimidate them. At the very least, the two of them would show some respect.
However, Xiao Chen didn’t care. In his eyes, no matter what, the two of them had nothing to do with him, and he wouldn’t be annoyed at all because he could completely wipe them out with a wave of his finger.
At this moment, in a courtyard in Tianming Sect, a woman dressed in Zi Yi was pacing back and forth in the courtyard, looking extremely anxious.
However, looking closely at this woman, her figure was extremely good. An increase of one point was too long, and a decrease of one point was too short. Her eyebrows were like green feathers, her muscles were like white snow, and her immortal energy contained seven points of charm. In this world, many men would probably be intoxicated by her.
“Xuan’er, what’s wrong?”
Right at this moment, a man dressed in red suddenly walked in. However, looking at this man’s sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes, he was extraordinary. However, his eyes did not give off the refined and gentle feeling of a Qilin. Instead, he looked like he was arrogant and domineering.
“Wu … Senior Brother Wu Xia.”
Seeing the red-clothed man walk in, the woman became even more nervous. Even her words became somewhat trembling, and her face turned slightly pale.
The man’s gaze was so sharp that he immediately noticed her peculiarity and his tone became somewhat cold. “What’s wrong? Is that senior brother of yours from the Starnet Sect coming?”
“I, I …”
The woman from Zi Yi bit her lips lightly. Her hands were tightly clutching her skirt. She lowered her head, her brows knitting tighter and tighter. For a moment, she was stuttering and unable to speak. And she was Xuan Yue, the junior sister of the Immortal Couple, Zi Xuan’er.
The two of them had never seen each other before. Back then, Xuan Yue was very obsessed with this junior sister. Otherwise, how could she have given her the chance to go to the Second Grade Domain?
However, Zi Xuan’er’s eyes were very high. Even if Xuan Yue was outstanding in the Starnet Sect, she was still only from the Third Grade Domain. Even if she came to the Second Grade Domain in the future, her background would never change. She was inferior to others.
She yearned for the Second Grade Domain and even the First Grade Domain. Back then, she was willing to become an immortal couple with Xuan Yue. She only wanted the other party to help her win a spot in Tianming Sect.
However, back then, she did not know that once the Immortal Couples were set by the Elders, it would be very difficult to change them in the future. She could only end up with one person. Because when the Immortal Couples were set, the Elders would take a wisp of their blood essence, seal it into the Concentric Jade with a secret curse, and then hand each other the Concentric Jade.
Only in the future, when the two of them were in harmony with Yin and Yang, would they be able to take out their respective blood essences. This way, they would be able to break through their cultivation. If the blood essences weren’t around and broke their bodies, then their cultivation would be completely lost, and their souls would be shattered.
Therefore, this was also the method to ensure that before the two cultivated together, the essence of each other was pure. This was because the dual cultivation of an immortal sect was not comparable to that of a mortal. In the mortal world, it was hard to say what happened between a man and a woman, but in an immortal sect, it was absolutely impossible to do anything rash with the dual cultivation.
Over the years, Zi Xuan’er had always been annoyed by this, She had no intention of forming an immortal couple with Xuan Yue. On the contrary, she had fallen in love with this senior brother named Xie Wuxia these past few years. The two of them often met privately, but because the Consanguine Jade that sealed her blood essence was with Xuan Yue, she could not lose her body. Once she lost her body, her cultivation would definitely be completely lost. Therefore, every time the two of them reached the end, she would suddenly regain consciousness and quickly put on her clothes.
Unless Xuan Yue died, the effect of this Concentrated Jade would always exist. A few days ago, she saw that the wisp of blood essence inside Xuan Yue’s Concentrated Jade was constantly flickering, but in the end, it suddenly stabilized for some reason.
Therefore, she would occasionally take out the Concentric Jade to take a look. However, the blood essence in the jade remained stable without any changes. Only today did she sense that the other party had already gone up the mountain.
“Humph!”
At this moment, Xie Wuxia waved her sleeves and walked out of the courtyard with a face full of displeasure. Zi Xuan’er caught up to him and pulled him, “Senior Brother Wuxia, I, I will definitely handle this matter …”
“How should we deal with it?”
“I, I will, I will definitely let him return the Tongxin Jade to me. Besides, this was the decision made by the elders at that time, so what can I, what can I do …”
“Humph! It’s best if that’s the case.”
“Senior Brother …”
Looking at Xie Wuxia’s back, Zi Xuan’er gritted her teeth and tightly pinched her fingers. This time, no matter what, she had to take the Tongxin Jade back from Xuan Yue. Thinking of Xie Wuxia’s angry appearance just now, she poured all her anger on Xuan Yue.
…
Besides, Xiao Chen was already in the Starry Constellation Pavilion. After reading the recommendation letter, Elder Xingxiu nodded, “Back then, I had some friendship with your master. From now on, you can stay with me.”
“Thank you, Elder. Also, the master told me to give this to the elder.”
As Xiao Chen spoke, he handed over the Zhu Que Mirror. Elder Xingxiu’s eyes narrowed and he smiled, “Your master is … too polite.”
“Then this disciple will leave first.”
“Alright.”
After leaving the Star Constellation Pavilion, many disciples of Tianming Sect gathered outside and watched him come out like they were watching a lively scene. In front of the crowd, there was a figure standing there. It was Zi Xuan’er.
“Senior Brother Xuan … Xuan Yue.”
Seeing Xiao Chen come out of the Starry Constellation Pavilion, Zi Xuan’er walked up nervously. Xiao Chen glanced at her. From Xuan Yue’s primordial spirit memories, he naturally knew who she was. The space between his eyebrows narrowed slightly, “Junior Sister Xuan’er?”
“Yes, yes … it’s me.”
Zi Xuan’er didn’t expect that he would change so much. Not only did his voice change a little, but even his gaze was completely different from before. Could it be that his cultivation had already broken through to the Harmonious Stage?
However, these weren’t the most important things at the moment. The most important thing was that she had to think of a way to bring back her concentric jade. However, now that so many people were watching, how could she open her mouth?
It seemed that she could only let it go today. However, just as she was about to casually greet him, Xiao Chen said, “Do you have anything to do?”
“Ah …”
Zi Xuan’er was stunned for a moment. She raised her head and stared at him blankly. Why was he so cold to her now? He clearly liked him so much in the past …
“If you have something to do, come and find me in a few days. I still have things to do in these two days. Goodbye.”
Xiao Chen glanced at her. After saying that, he went straight out. Not only was Zi Xuan’er stunned, even the other disciples of Tianming Sect were stunned. They stared blankly at his departing back.
Was this person really Junior Sister Xuan’er’s senior brother in the Third Grade Domain? I heard that it was the relationship between their master’s father and immortal, so why is it so cold? Even though Junior Sister Xuan’er came from the Third Grade Domain, which one of them didn’t want to get close to her and which one didn’t hold her high? Even Senior Brother Xie, who was next door, would occasionally come over to teach her homework.
