Cultivation: I Can Reincarnate Into Various Worlds-Chapter 629 - 321. Immortal World Transfer Station - Chiming Realm_2
If he went to the Upper realm, and Yan Luanqing still had feelings for him, he wouldn't mind becoming her true spouse.
Time cuts like a knife.
Of all his intimate ladies, only one or two may walk with him till the end.
Wu Miao, Zuoqiu Ying, Dai Ji, Yan Luanqing, it's impossible to predict.
"Junior Brother Chang..."
Upon feeling Xu Xing's touch, Yan Luanqing's delicate body stiffened, but she didn't use any Magic Power to repel Xu Xing.
Then, she sensed Xu Xing's hands leaving, her face returning to normal. With a bow, she uttered, "May we be mutually supportive on the Immortal Journey."
「Two days later.」
Underground, Black Mountain Market.
Emperor's Son Pavilion, Sub-Pavilion Hall.
Over twenty Nascent Soul Cultivators gathered In the Hall, sitting in two rows. They looked at Elder Stone Monkey, who was seated on the Chief seat, and an old man with white hair wearing a face mask carved with "Kill Wolf".
"All of you are members our Emperor's Son Pavilion has gathered during these thousand years from various parts of the Nanyan Continent, mainly from North Yue Country, South Yue Nation, Liang Country, and other such nations."
Elder Stone Monkey gestured with his hands, signaling for silence, then cleared his throat and began to speak.
"When the Emperor's Son Pavilion recruited you into the organization, it was said that you would be given the chance to become a Nascent Soul Saint Monarch..."
"Now, the opportunity is here," he said solemnly.
"What?"
"Opportunity to become a Nascent Soul Saint Monarch?"
"What kind of opportunity?"
The Cultivators were surprised and excited, but their eyes also held deep caution.
They had 'willingly' joined the Emperor's Son Pavilion back then precisely for the opportunities it offered.
Countless Pills, Cultivation Methods, and so on.
But, as the saying goes, nothing comes for free.
They didn't believe the Emperor's Son Pavilion would suddenly act out of benevolence and easily grant them the opportunity to become a Nascent Soul Saint Monarch.
"Our sub-pavilion has two Yuan Shen Pills available for exchange, but this requires Merit Points..."
At this moment, Elder Kill Wolf, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly spoke. His voice cut through the clamor In the Hall.
"Yuan Shen Pill?"
The Cultivators seated in two rows were startled, their eyes Flickering as a hint of speculation arose.
During the Nascent Soul Realm, there was the Nascent Soul Condensing Pill. So, if they weren't mistaken, this 'Yuan Shen Pill' should be a Pill that could increase the probability of a Breakthrough to the Nascent Soul Stage.
Even if, like the Nascent Soul Condensing Pill, it could increase the chance of breaking through to the Nascent Soul Realm by a mere one-tenth, or even half a tenth, it would be an invaluable treasure.
Moreover, one reason the Primordial Spirit is difficult to achieve is the arduousness of overcoming the Little Three Calamities Heavenly Tribulation.
Another crucial point is that during the Breakthrough to the Nascent Soul Stage, the Immortal World Bridge must be opened!
The Immortal World Bridge connects the Immortal World and the Human Realm, channeling Immortal Qi from the Immortal World to baptize Nascent Soul Cultivators.
The Immortal World Bridge also serves as the coordinate for Nascent Soul Cultivators to locate the Immortal World.
The reason the Dharma Phase is exclusive to the Primordial Spirit is that this Dharma Phase is the half-immortal body that a Nascent Soul Saint Monarch transforms into after opening the Immortal World Bridge.
The Nascent Soul Condensing Pill can assist Dao Pill Cultivators in taking the most critical step: Pill Fragment into Nascent Formation.
If this Yuan Shen Pill had a similar effect, aiding Nascent Soul Cultivators in the crucial step of opening the Immortal World Bridge... its value would be immeasurable.
"Yes, your speculations are mostly correct, Daoist friends. The Yuan Shen Pill is indeed a Breaking Pill refined by our Emperor's Son Pavilion. It can help you open the Immortal World Bridge and even offer some assistance in overcoming the Little Three Calamities Heavenly Tribulation..."
"The three Nascent Soul Saint Monarchs within our Pavilion all became so by refining the Yuan Shen Pill."
Elder Kill Wolf surveyed the hall, revealing this secret.
The Emperor's Son Pavilion actually has three Nascent Soul Cultivators? With such strength, they could be considered... unrivaled in the world...
The Pill Cauldron Sect, Tianyi Sect, Purple Lightning Sect, Yishen Palace, and Jing Water Pavilion—these Sects each only have one Nascent Soul Ancestor.
The Cultivators murmured amongst themselves.
Although a Power's sphere of influence isn't absolutely correlated with the Realm or number of its top experts, typically, any Power with a Nascent Soul Saint Monarch is undeniably a major force.
How could the Emperor's Son Pavilion, a Power hidden in the shadows, surpass these Major Sects that dominate the Nanyan Continent in terms of the number of Nascent Soul Saint Monarchs? This is truly baffling.
"Once you become a Nascent Soul Saint Monarch, you will be qualified to be received by our Upper realm..."
Before the Cultivators could inquire further, Elder Kill Wolf dropped another bombshell.
"The Upper realm?" the Cultivators exclaimed in an uproar.
What they understood as the Upper realm was the legendary Immortal World.
Could it be that the Emperor's Son Pavilion is a Power from the Immortal World? Some of the Cultivators began to speculate.
Such speculation wasn't entirely baseless. According to Ancient Books, many Cultivators who Ascended to the Immortal World ultimately achieved far more than the average cultivator native to the Immortal World.
The top Cultivators from the Human Realm, upon reaching the Immortal World, were often considered geniuses even in the grander scheme of things, akin to prodigies from minor regions there.
"The Upper realm where the Emperor's Son Pavilion is based is not the true Immortal World, but it is closer to it. It serves as a transit station for Cultivators from the Lower Realm Ascending to the Immortal World. It is also known as... the Chiming World!" Elder Stone Monkey stroked his beard and smiled as he spoke.
As a Sub-Pavilion Elder, he knew far more details about the Emperor's Son Pavilion than these members. He was certain that what he had just said contained no falsehood whatsoever. It was all true!
The Chiming World... Xu Xing savored these words, a faint smile touching his lips.
If the Chiming World didn't have the Chiming Imperial Dynasty and the Tianci Emperor, it could indeed be called a straightforward transit station for those from the Lower Realm Ascending to the Immortal World.
The very fact that Cultivators of the Chiming World pioneered the three additional Realms of Refining Void, Unification, and Tribulation Crossing was testament enough. They were forging new paths in Cultivation. Such talent and might were beyond Xu Xing's imagination.
Seated among them, Yan Luanqing listened to Elder Stone Monkey and Elder Kill Wolf. Her eyes flickered as she pondered. So, everything Junior Brother Chang said was true. He really did uncover these great secrets in the Louhai Secret Realm. Two days ago, after hearing Xu Xing's words, she had believed him, yet a sliver of worry remained. She feared he might be placating her, just as he had with the forty-year marriage agreement all those years ago. Now, having heard all this, she could finally dispel all her doubts.
In the Hall, a Cultivator in Daoist robes stood up, bowed to Elder Stone Monkey on the Chief seat, and inquired, "I wish to ask Elder Stone Monkey, what exactly is this opportunity you mentioned earlier? I believe that the Merit Points I've accumulated in the past are insufficient to qualify for exchanging this Yuan Shen Pill and the chance to ascend to the Upper Realm."
He thought, One reaps no rewards without sowing. He didn't believe the Emperor's Son Pavilion would simply hand out such benefits freely.
"I won't hide it from you. This opportunity I speak of does not follow the Righteous Path," Elder Stone Monkey said with a sigh.
Hearing this, the Cultivators frowned slightly, though they remained unconcerned by this admission.
After joining the Emperor's Son Pavilion, how could they not know that The Emperor Pavilion did not tread the Righteous Path? In other words, among the many Powers in the world, even those Sects that proclaimed themselves to be on the Righteous Path—did all their actions truly align with it?
"A prominent figure in the Emperor's Son Pavilion of the Upper Realm requires the Nascent Souls of Lower Realm Nascent Soul Cultivators and Primordial Spirit Dao Lords for the cultivation of an evil technique." Seeing the Cultivators remain silent, Elder Kill Wolf and Elder Stone Monkey exchanged a glance before revealing the nature of this 'opportunity.'
"Thus, this prominent figure issued this task within the Emperor's Son Pavilion," Elder Stone Monkey added.
An evil technique... The Cultivators' eyes flickered. They felt there was at least a thirty percent chance this was true.
If the Emperor's Son Pavilion claimed this was for some grand matter of the state and involved slaughtering everyone, they would have scoffed. But if it was for cultivating an evil technique, that made sense. Issuing this task in the Lower Realm, upon a moment's reflection, was clearly a way to avoid trouble. After all, Cultivators in the Upper Realm were precious. Reckless slaughter there might provoke a powerful cultivator—touching their 'reverse scale'—leading to one's own doom. Cultivators from the Lower Realm, however, were different; they had no such connections to the powerful figures of the Upper Realm. To issue a task casually without dirtying their own hands—why wouldn't they?
A large, bald man stood up, cupped his fists in a salute, and posed the question, "May I ask Elder Stone Monkey and Elder Kill Wolf, how can we be sure that the Emperor's Son Pavilion won't discard us once we've served our purpose—claiming to slaughter other Cultivators while actually intending to use our lives as Cultivation Rations for this prominent figure? This is something we must guard against!"
None of the Cultivators recruited by the Emperor's Son Pavilion were fools. Any fools among them would have perished long ago during various missions.
