Chapter 2574: Chapter 2574: The Spiritual Heaven of the Myriad Heavens

Just now, the laughter of the young man in silver armor, ’Ace Fenning’, came closer, and Wyatt Barnes’s gaze immediately fell on the edge of the pool, wanting to see clearly who was laughing so loudly.

Unfortunately, even with full concentration, he only managed to catch a shadow of Ace before he appeared.

After witnessing Ace’s speed, Wyatt realized:

This Ace Fenning’s strength is quite extraordinary!

If his strength were simple, how could his speed be so fast?

It must be noted that Wyatt Barnes is no longer the ’half-step immortal’ from the mundane realm, but someone who ascended to the planes of the heavens and achieved the status of a ’Heavenly Immortal’ in the Ascension Pool of the heavenly planes.

His cultivation, his strength, is far greater than when he was in the mundane realm.

His perspective has also improved greatly.

"Even compared to the speed of a typical Nine Tribulations Loose Immortal, Ace Fenning’s speed is not much inferior!"

Wyatt thought to himself.

Of course, Wyatt understood clearly:

Although Ace’s speed is comparable to a typical Nine Tribulations Loose Immortal, it doesn’t mean that Ace’s cultivation has reached the ’peak Heavenly Immortal’ level corresponding to a Nine Tribulations Loose Immortal.

The ’Scattered Immortals’ of the mundane realm, due to lacking normal bodies and relying more on their souls, can’t perform any Divine Abilities or Immortal Methods of the heavenly planes.

On the other hand, the immortals of the heavenly planes don’t have such limitations.

For this reason, in the heavenly planes, those who can exhibit speed comparable to a typical Nine Tribulations Loose Immortal in the mundane realm are not necessarily peak Heavenly Immortals, but possibly a bit weaker.

However, anyone who can demonstrate speed comparable to a typical Nine Tribulations Loose Immortal, even if their cultivation hasn’t reached the peak Heavenly Immortal, is beyond what a newly ascended person who has just achieved ’Heavenly Immortal’ can compare to.

Throughout, Liam King never revealed his strength.

But through the confrontation between Ace Fenning and Liam King, Wyatt could see:

The disparity in strength between them is likely not significant.

In other words:

Liam King possesses strength not inferior to Ace Fenning.

...

Just as Wyatt saw a young man in fine clothes fly away from the Ascension Pool and appear in front of Liam King, realizing that the young man was in trouble.

With a flash before Wyatt’s eyes, Liam King had already struck like lightning.

Bam!!

With a ruthless palm strike, like crushing dry weeds and smashing rotten wood, he shattered the defense formed by the Immortal Origin of the young man in fine clothes, and his palm fell on the young man’s shoulder.

Crunch!

"Ah——"

A crisp and piercing sound was accompanied by an incredibly shrill scream.

In full view, one arm of the young man in fine clothes was directly torn off by Liam King’s palm strike, with a spray of blood in the air, staining the ground, glaring and conspicuous.

The severed arm fell into the pool of blood on the ground, splattering droplets of blood.

Just as the pale-faced young man in fine clothes was trying to stop the bleeding on his shoulder where his arm had been amputated.

Boom!

Liam King casually waved his hand, and a vast wave of Immortal Origin surged forth, directly towards the severed arm of the young man, clearly intending to destroy it.

If the severed arm wasn’t destroyed, the young man could pick it up and reattach it in a short time, and after some recuperation, he would have a chance to recover completely.

But once destroyed, there would be no chance of reattachment!

Although, in the heavenly planes, there are some Pill Medicines for limb regeneration, those medicines are exceedingly rare and extremely expensive, not something everyone can acquire.

"No——"

Amidst the young man’s furious roar, Liam King ignored him completely and destroyed his severed arm.

"You... you dare to cripple my right arm... just wait, you’ll see... I won’t let you off! I absolutely will not let you off!!"

Seeing his severed arm destroyed, the young man in fine clothes, whose face was already pale, turned even paler.

But his eyes, wide and filled with bloodlust and hatred, stared fiercely at Liam King, screaming hysterically in rage.

As if he wished to tear Liam King to pieces, to grind his bones to dust!

"Won’t let me off?"

Hearing the words of the young man, Liam King laughed coldly, raising his hand once more, enveloping it like a giant fan, pressing the young man in fine clothes down like a ’dead dog’ at his feet.

Bam!

Liam King raised a foot and stepped on the head of the brocaded youth, looking down at him indifferently:

"I’m curious, how will you not let me go? This is no longer the mundane plane where you were, this is the multiverse plane..."

"No matter if you were a dragon or a tiger in the mundane plane, as soon as you arrive in the multiverse plane, you’re like an ’ant’, anyone can crush you!"

"Were it not for the rules above that prohibit wanton slaughter of ascenders... you’d already be dead!"

As Liam King spoke, his eyes flashed with a chilling intent to kill.

"I... I am a direct disciple of the Palace Master lineage of Kingston Palace of Grand Intentions! My Kingston Palace, even in this ’Departure Fire Heaven’, is a remarkable force! You crippled my arm today, but when I return to Kingston Palace one day, I’ll ensure you die without a place to be buried!"

The brocaded youth, humiliated and furious, roared from beneath Liam’s foot. 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂

Kingston Palace was indeed the force the brocaded youth belonged to during his time in the mundane plane.

And the influence of Kingston Palace wasn’t limited to the mundane plane; even within the multiverse plane ’Departure Fire Heaven’, Kingston Palace was a formidable and notable force.

"Kingston Palace?"

Upon hearing the youth’s roar, Liam King paused for a moment, then sneered indifferently, "I’m sorry, I’ve never heard of this Kingston Palace of yours. As for this ’Departure Fire Heaven’ you mentioned, it should be the multiverse plane ’Departure Fire Heaven’?"

"Unfortunately, you’re not currently in Departure Fire Heaven... we’re here in the multiverse plane ’Spiritual Heaven’!"

Towards the end, Liam King’s sneer intensified, "If I’m not mistaken... the Kingston Palace you mentioned should be a force within Departure Fire Heaven. Sadly, the multiverse plane you’re in now isn’t Departure Fire Heaven, but Spiritual Heaven."

"And trying to get from Spiritual Heaven to Departure Fire Heaven... for an ascender like you who’s just arrived in the multiverse plane, it’s harder than ascending to the heavens!"

"Even if your force is powerful in Departure Fire Heaven, what does it matter? In Spiritual Heaven, you can’t borrow its influence!"

Liam King squatted down, and slapped the lost and dazed brocaded youth twice on the cheeks, the sound crisp and clear.

"Kid, in our Spiritual Heaven, you’d better be honest... if you dare provoke me again, though I can’t kill you, I won’t mind crippling another leg of yours!"

Liam King gave the brocaded youth a contemptuous glance before retracting his leg.

The brocaded youth did not immediately rise; he continued lying there, his eyes vacant, seemingly insensitive even to the slaps. He muttered to himself:

"How is it possible... how is it possible... in my mundane plane, once ascended, it should definitely be to the multiverse plane ’Departure Fire Heaven’... how can this not be Departure Fire Heaven?!"

Listening to his mutterings, he seemed unwilling to accept:

The multiverse plane he was currently in wasn’t ’Departure Fire Heaven’!

Now, the brocaded youth looked more like a lost and frantic ’madman’ rather than a newly-achieved ’Heavenly Immortal’ immortal.

"Here... is the multiverse plane ’Spiritual Heaven’?"

"Why is it like this... why isn’t this the multiverse plane ’Qull Jade’?"

"The half-step immortals and Nine Tribulations Loose Immortals in my mundane plane, upon ascending, generally ascend to the multiverse plane ’Dream Back Heaven’... but how did I ascend to this ’Spiritual Heaven’?"

"Can someone tell me... what’s going on?!"

...

Wyatt Barnes heard continuous noisy sounds in his ears, deafening.

It was those who had successfully achieved ’Heavenly Immortal’ status in the Ascension Pool, losing their composure upon hearing Liam King say this is the multiverse plane ’Spiritual Heaven’.

Many couldn’t accept this cruel reality.

"Here is the multiverse plane ’Spiritual Heaven’?"

"I... I ascended from the Yan Huang plane, shouldn’t I ascend to the multiverse plane ’Jade Emperor Heaven’?"

At this moment, not only were the ascenders around him baffled, Wyatt Barnes himself was equally confounded.

Regardless of whether it was the Tower Spirit ’Elder Fire’ of the Seven Treasures Jewel Tower before, or the Nine Tribulations Loose Immortal ’Wally Sanders’ he later met, they all had told him:

That the half-step immortals and Nine Tribulations Loose Immortals ascending from the Yan Huang plane generally ascend to one of the eighty-one multiverse planes, ’Jade Emperor Heaven’, since Jade Emperor Heaven is the closest to the Yan Huang plane.

But now, hearing Liam King’s words, Wyatt Barnes realized:

He wasn’t in the multiverse plane ’Jade Emperor Heaven’, but in a multiverse plane named ’Spiritual Heaven’.

"How could this be?"

Soon, Wyatt Barnes’ gaze followed the stares of other ascenders, landing on Liam King beside the pool.

In their gazes, there was also bewilderment.

None of them knew why they didn’t ascend to the expected multiverse plane, but instead ascended to this unfamiliar multiverse plane ’Spiritual Heaven’.

"A year ago, there was a rare upheaval in the grand world happening once in ten thousand years..."

As Liam King cast an indifferent glance at Wyatt Barnes and the others, seemingly disdainful to provide answers, another silver-armored youth ’Ace Fenning’ began to explain:

"And during the upheaval of the grand world, ascenders from the mundane planes only have a slim chance to ascend to the multiverse plane adjacent to their respective mundane planes."

"The upheaval of the grand world occurs once in ten thousand years... but once it appears, it lasts for a thousand years."
