Starting with Proficiency Panel-Chapter 609 - 606: The Beacon of the Cosmos

It seemed that Guo Muyang sensed Lu Ren's gaze, but instead of backing down, he raised his chin and said with a mysterious meaning in his eyes, "Master, do you want to try?"

Lu Ren said seriously, "Why are you so misguided, my child? Cultivate properly, the Dao is endless, do not waste your time on such trivialities."

After saying this, Lu Ren wiped his mouth and said, "I forgot to bring money when I came down the mountain, remember to pay the bill."

Guo Muyang: "..."

After finishing his words, Lu Ren turned around and returned to his residence, sinking his mind into his Inner Heaven and Earth Mini Cosmos, where he fought Ao Li for three thousand rounds.

"Clean yourself up, I have matters to attend to, I'm leaving."

Leaving the still-dazed Ao Li behind, Lu Ren pulled up his trousers, only then did Ao Li react with anger.

"You damned little brat, how dare you treat me like this!"

After a month of recuperation, Lu Ren finally sank into his mind again. With the exploration now called Superdimensional Perception spreading out, he continuously searched for Exotic Realm passages based on system prompts.

As time went by, the gradually unsealed Hantu resembled a magnet, madly pulling in all intersecting Exotic Realm timelines from the Grand Cosmos, only to cast them aside afterward.

To put it in simple terms, the Grand Cosmos now seemed like it had consumed three pounds of raw oysters, two pounds of kidneys, and a pound of eggs, even passing mice had to poke it twice.

Thus, by extending the Superdimensional Perception for just three days, Lu Ren found no fewer than ten Exotic Realms, many of which were worlds he recognized from movies, TV, or anime.

At his current level, obtaining Exotic Realm information was immensely easy, especially with the system's prompts as an aid, which allowed him to grasp a general understanding of the worldviews, if not know them inside out.

Lu Ren was sure that the Jade Emperor and Tathagata could also perceive these Exotic Realm pathways. Still, the reason why they had not acted likely stemmed from differing cosmic rules in the two worlds, potentially causing their powers to be immensely suppressed. Moreover, many Exotic Realms were in high-speed motion.

Crossing paths with an equivalent Cosmos could last but a moment; entering might see them torn away from their original Grand Cosmos with just a breath.

Even if they broke through the world barriers and rushed into chaotic space turbulence, getting back would be incredibly difficult.

What's most important is that the universe's movement is irregular, perhaps nearby one second, and then moved far away the next due to Exotic Realm frequency vibrations.

Ultimately, this place was considered the Enlightenment Land by the Jade Emperor and Tathagata, where they would not easily break away.

Returning from the unknown, the Jade Emperor and Tathagata were likely continuing to gather Power, preparing for a breakthrough to Celestial Immortal.

This was why Lu Ren did not settle down but, after stabilizing his Ancestral Witch Realm and successfully condensing the Star Core within his Inner Heaven and Earth Mini Cosmos, took only a brief respite before seeking new opportunities in Exotic Realms.

In the million years in the unknown, even without external energy for supplementation, their comprehension and insight into the Celestial Immortal Path far exceeded Lu Ren's depth.

If practicing step-by-step, unacceptable consequences may arise, and the stability he finally achieved would instantly disintegrate.

Pondering this, Lu Ren couldn't help but sigh secretly. Now, the Huaxia cultivation path was not singular; witchcraft, immortality, and martial arts coexisted. Although many outstanding talents grew to high levels under immense pressure, even producing over a hundred Great Witches or True Immortals at the Human Immortal Realm in the past decade.

But this was not enough; Lu Ren sought a super powerhouse at the Earth Immortal Realm who would forge their path, but unfortunately, until now, there were only a dozen at the Peak of Human Immortal, among whom Zhang Tongxuan and Ji Quanzhen were the most advanced.

"Ding, you discovered the 'Heavenly Dragon Eight Books' world, do you wish to enter?"

Without hesitation, Lu Ren refused. Such a low martial tier held no utility, and unexpectedly, of the ten worlds he detected, seven had traces in the Current Cosmos.

This led him to consider that among endless Cosmos, certain moments' frequency might align with the Current Cosmos, inspiring some to capture and write or film it.

In the following months, Lu Ren's Superdimensional Perception grasped about three hundred Exotic Cosmos, but unfortunately, most were low martial or low eerie worlds, venturing there would only waste life.

He had to continue passively acquiring patiently.

Lamenting internally, Lu Ren couldn't help but think how great it would be to actively search and explore someday.

As he pondered this, inspiration struck Lu Ren, he abruptly stood and inquired of the system, which rarely responded on normal days even if the sky fell.

"System, are the previously anchored Cosmos records saved?"

After some time, the system mechanically responded: "Anchor points planted, gaining real-time spacetime beacons."

Lu Ren's eyes shone brilliantly at this, an immense idea forming in his mind.

If this could succeed, merely spreading some high-level seeds could yield tremendous gains.

Surprisingly, as Hantu unsealed and certain enigmatic atmospheres became active, it seemed to impact some rule, making the infrequent-responding system now progressively capable of answering some of Lu Ren's questions.

"System, who created you?"

"Ding, data missing."

"What is your name?"

"Data missing."

"Can you open the real-time spacetime beacon computation model?"

"Confirming... Confirmation complete, receive real-time spacetime beacon computation data?" 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮

"Ding, special notice to the host, the spacetime beacon information data flow is extremely massive, advised to acquire one at a time."

Lu Ren hesitated no longer, agreed, and suddenly a torrent of colossal data streamed into his mind.

He passed out before he could even groan.

Simultaneously, the Tuo'e Temple arranged by Lu Ren spontaneously flickered, and the imperceptible Spiritual Light abruptly vanished.

In a flash, the earth-form statue planted with the Earth Path Principle perceived that Lu Ren had lost conscious control over the Earth Path Principle. It immediately made the decision to take over.

Much like an unsteady bulb, flickering twice before stabilizing.

People cultivating within the Tuo'e Temple's enveloping area only sensed its magnetic field suddenly disappearing, then swiftly returning. Though wondering, they understood perhaps Lu Ren was doing something.

However, Ji Quanzhen first sensed it and became alarmed, quickly coordinating arrangements, maintaining an outward ease but inward tightness, covertly enforcing a lock-down, and having forces on standby promptly.
