Stellar Transformation-Chapter 461: Volume 14 - 34 Returning Home

Zixuan Star!

Seeing these words, Qin Yu felt as if he were struck by lightning. Like fleeting glimmers in his mind, a stream of images flashed by: the scenes from his childhood of arduous cultivation, the happy conversations with his elder and second brothers in the hot springs, the moments spent with his father...

Homecoming!

Qin Yu felt his entire soul tremble with an overwhelming impulse to return home. This urge stirred up endless waves in the calm sea of Qin Yu’s heart, and he found himself utterly unable to suppress it.

"Uncle Fu, you say that by entering, I can reach that cosmic space?" Qin Yu inquired. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶

"Yes, why? Do you want to go in?" Seeing Qin Yu’s expression, Uncle Fu couldn’t help but ask.

Qin Yu let out a long sigh, "Zixuan Star is where I grew up. Even though I now have the strength to tear through space, creating a passage that would allow me to enter the Mortal World all by myself is difficult. I still don’t possess that ability."

"Luckily, Senior Che Hou has already refined this spatial passage," Qin Yu felt a surge of joy in his heart.

"You can enter if you wish, but Qin Yu, you must never forget: when you have the power to open the doors of the ’Artifact Hall’, you must come back," Uncle Fu reminded him earnestly.

Qin Yu nodded.

"Rest assured, I will come back." After saying this, Qin Yu turned his gaze toward the pillar in front of him.

He took a step forward and his entire being merged into the pillar and vanished.

******

In an instant, the constellations shifted.

Qin Yu only felt his body hurtling at extreme speed, his eyes only seeing the chaotic spatial torrents, which he often encountered when tearing through space. After roughly seven breaths, Qin Yu saw the scenery before him change.

The spatial turmoil disappeared, and what appeared before him was the endless cosmos.

"This gravitational pull is really quite weak," Qin Yu looked back to see a nondescript vortex behind him, which at first glance looked like a black hole. However, the pull of this black hole was too weak.

Qin Yu understood that by entering this black hole, he could return to the Mishen Palace.

He memorized this location in his heart.

"Zixuan Star shouldn’t be far from here," Qin Yu looked out into the vast space, spreading his divine sense. With this spread, he discovered that the reach of his divine sense covered a distance much further than it could in the Immortal, Demon, and Demon Beast worlds.

Qin Yu had a clear feeling that with just a slight expansion of energy, he could tear open the Mortal World’s cosmic space.

"Indeed, it’s a level lower than the Immortal, Demon, and Demon Beast world spaces," Qin Yu waved his hand.

Immediately, a giant spatial rift over ten thousand meters long appeared before Qin Yu, emitting devouring forces from within. However, these forces had no effect on Qin Yu. In a moment, the space mended itself.

"It seems Brother Zhou Xian’s methods back then weren’t so extraordinary after all," Qin Yu sighed.

Back then, in front of him, Zhou Xian could easily tear through space with a wave of his hand, even effortlessly annihilating it. Qin Yu was indeed shocked at the time.

Now, it appears that the space Zhou Xian ripped and annihilated was only of the Mortal World. As the lowest level space, tearing such a space is not so noteworthy, and now Qin Yu could easily do the same.

"Zixuan Star, indeed, is not far from here." Qin Yu’s divine sense had already located Zixuan Star, which was nearly half a star system away.

With a single Great Teleportation, Qin Yu vanished from that patch of space.

******

Qin Yu stood on Yellow Stone Star and gazed at the vast celestial body not far away—Zixuan Star. He had cultivated on Yellow Stone Star in the past, and it was here where he ultimately comprehended the ’Dark Star Realm’.

Looking from the direction of Yellow Stone Star, the raging flames and the striking whites of Zixuan Star’s two extreme lands were clearly visible. Those were clearly the two polar regions of Zixuan Star, and Qin Yu’s figure shot rapidly towards Zixuan Star.

As he drew closer, Qin Yu could also see the vast oceans on Zixuan Star, and in the center was the Chaotic Star Sea. To the north of the region where the Chaotic Star Sea was located, there was a small piece of land, known as Hidden Dragon Continent. And the large landmass to the south of the oceans was Tenglong Continent.

Looking at the various regions of Zixuan Star, a series of scenes surfaced in Qin Yu’s mind.

The cultivation on Hidden Dragon Continent.

The fierce struggles within the Undersea Cultivation World.

The madness of burning Heavenly Fire on Tenglong Continent.

...

Qin Yu stood near Zixuan Star yet hesitated to enter it. After a long while, he calmed his restless heart, shook his head with a wry smile, and sighed, "The closer to home, the more timid one’s heart."

Then, Qin Yu’s figure disappeared into thin air, having already entered Zixuan Star.

******

Hidden Dragon Continent.

It had been about four thousand years since Qin Yu ascended from the Mortal World to the Immortal, Demon, and Demon Beast worlds. During this time, the Hidden Dragon Continent had gone through numerous changes in dynasties, with no dynasty lasting forever.

The past Qin Dynasty, the past Han Dynasty, the past Song Dynasty—all were now just memories.

Today, the Hidden Dragon Continent’s mortal inhabited areas experienced a rare unification.

The Tang Dynasty Empire!

The founding emperor of the Tang Dynasty Empire, Li Shi, fought his way through life and finally unified nearly all regions of Hidden Dragon Continent, except for the human-restricted area known as Primordial Wilderness, which belonged to the demon beasts.

The Tang Dynasty Empire had been established for over two hundred years and was now in its heyday. However, the lack of enemies caused the nobility within the empire to become somewhat decadent, pursuing pleasures, beauties, and longevity...

This also made Cultivators increasingly revered.

...

The Tang Dynasty Empire, Guangling City.

Guangling City was one of the major cities in the Tang Dynasty Empire, famed for its beauties and fine cuisine. Its beauties drew scores of talented men, while its cuisine attracted members of the noble class. The city’s prosperity needs no further explanation.

In the evening, lanterns were hung in the streets and alleys of Guangling City, for nighttime was when the city was at its most vibrant. The streets bustled with people, many dressed in fine silks and followed by servants.

"Master, where shall we go today?" a servant asked respectfully.

The master, with his rotund belly, stroked his neat beard and said with a faint smile, "Tonight, let’s go to the ’Moonlight Pavilion’."

"As you wish, master," the servant responded obediently.

However, at this moment—

A brilliant ray of light descended from the sky, it was a sharp sword!

The old master with the bulging belly’s complexion suddenly changed, he took a deep breath, and his big stomach abruptly shrank. His right fist also turned red, bringing a whistling gust of wind, and he fiercely smashed his fist out.

As the fist struck, it actually produced a sonic boom.

"Boom!"

The long sword shattered inch by inch, the assassin coughed up blood, and then immediately fled.

A cold light flashed in the servant’s eyes as he was about to give chase. The old master coughed and said indifferently, "Don’t chase, that person is just a bronze medal killer from Heavenly Net, pursuing him is pointless."

"Someone from Heavenly Net?" The servant’s expression also changed, "Old master, then..."

"Let’s go back first, whoever wants to kill me, only sending a bronze medal killer, they underestimate me too much." The old master’s face turned cold, and he turned around and left immediately.

This scene that unfolded on the street was observed by many in the tavern by the roadside.

"Heavenly Net? It still exists," murmured a young man dressed in black sitting in the tavern.

This was none other than Qin Yu who came to the Hidden Dragon Continent. Returning to his hometown, Qin Yu did not rush back immediately. Instead, he first familiarized himself with his hometown after four thousand years. Moreover, Qin Yu’s divine sense covered the entire Zixuan Star, and on Zixuan Star, only his second brother ’Qin Zheng’ remained.

As for his father Emperor Qin De, his big brother Qin Feng, and Feng Yuzi, among others, were no longer on Zixuan Star. Even his younger sister Little Lu was not there anymore.

Qin Yu knew that his big brother and the others had a relatively fast cultivation speed, plus the treasures he left behind, four thousand years was enough for them to reach Ascension to the Immortal Realm. As for his second brother ’Qin Zheng,’ still being in the Mortal World was something Qin Yu had anticipated. After all, Qin Zheng was the slowest cultivator among the three brothers.

"The person just now was a bronze medal killer from Heavenly Net, I didn’t expect the deeply hidden Boss Wang to possess such strength," several young noblemen in the tavern started discussing.

"They only hired a bronze medal killer, it seems that the person who wants to kill Boss Wang spent too little money. If they had hired a ’bone ash’ level killer from Heavenly Net, who could escape?" another nobleman said.

Qin Yu was taken aback when he heard this.

Bone ash level killer?

Back when he was still in the Mortal World, it seemed there was no such level as ’bone ash’ among the killers, right?

"Four thousand years, the changes are indeed significant," Qin Yu sighed softly, then drained the wine in his cup. Over these years, the winemaking skills on the Hidden Dragon Continent had improved a lot.

"Brother Li, did you hear that the Miss of the Martial Arts’ number one family, the Qin Family, ’Qin Yutong,’ is about to arrive in Guangling City? Do you know about this?" one nobleman said.

"Brother Guo, I knew about this long ago. Otherwise, why would I come to Guangling City? Moreover, I know that Miss Qin Yutong should arrive in Guangling City tomorrow," that Brother Li replied.

"Miss Qin Yutong is known as the number one beauty in Martial Arts. If anyone could marry her, it wouldn’t just be about having a beauty in their arms, but even some of the Qin Family’s top secret books could be cultivated."

"Indeed, the Qin Family has a nearly three thousand years heritage, and their strength is beyond doubt."

...

Suddenly a group of people started discussing this ’Qin Yutong’.

Qin Yu began to have his doubts.

"This Qin Family being able to last three thousand years must have something to do with my second brother," Qin Yu thought silently, but according to Qin Yu’s expectations, his own family would never just be a small Martial Arts family.

Moreover, observation with mere divine sense.

Within the stronghold of the Qin Family in Yan Capital City, around my second brother ’Qin Zheng’, there are quite a few experts at the Transcendance Tribulation Stage, and even a number of Independent Immortals are not few in number. With such strength, the Qin Family can easily compare to some of the cultivation sects in the Tenglong Continent.

******

That Qin Yutong, Qin Yu also observed her a bit the next day, and indeed, she was strikingly beautiful. However, Qin Yu didn’t pay too much attention to her. Afterwards, Qin Yu strolled through some cities on the Hidden Dragon Continent.

Three days later.

Qin Yu arrived at Yan Capital City.

Yan Capital City is the main base of the Qin Family, and even after so many years, it still is!

The dynasties of the Hidden Dragon Continent may have changed, but every generation knew one thing... On the Hidden Dragon Continent, there is a latent major family ’Qin Family’, a family possessing the power to instantly destroy an entire dynasty.

Thus, for many years, Yan Capital City has always belonged to the Qin Family. The former Prince Zhen Dong Mansion has now been renamed ’De Garden’. For four thousand years, the master of De Garden has always been a member of the Qin Family.

Qin Yu stood alone outside the De Garden Mansion.

"I... have returned," Qin Yu said softly.

Outside the entrance to De Garden Mansion, aside from Qin Yu, no one dared to come close. Anyone who slightly approached, the guards of De Garden would give them a ’cold’ glance. But as Qin Yu stood there, the guards acted as if they saw nothing.

Even some people passing by also seemed not to see Qin Yu. The light that fell upon the area where Qin Yu was would automatically distort.

His understanding of space was enough for Qin Yu to twist space, making people around him unable to see him. In the realms of Immortals, Demons, and Spirit Beasts, doing so might not be as easy, but within the space of the Mortal World, it was much simpler and easier for Qin Yu to control.

At this moment, a father and daughter approached, the woman wearing a veil and the father dressed in simple clothes.

Even with the veil, Qin Yu could see through to her face, and this woman was the very one he had seen before, known as the number one beauty of the Martial Arts world, ’Qin Yutong’.

"Father, why has the Family Head summoned all the side branches to gather?" A beautiful young woman, who appeared to be around twenty, transmitted her voice to inquire from the middle-aged man in green clothes beside her.

The man in green clothes calmly transmitted back, "Don’t ask, the Family Head issued the summoning order three days ago, there must be important matters."

Both father and daughter were using the voice transmission technique common among Inner Power Experts, and Qin Yu easily overheard them with his strength.

The guards of the De Garden Mansion stopped the father and daughter, who simply presented an invitation, and the guards immediately allowed them to enter.

...

"Side branches? I didn’t expect Big Brother to have dispersed the family. Well, this is not a bad thing." Qin Yu silently watched from the mansion’s entrance as quite a few people, within just a short day, carrying invitations entered the ’De Garden’ Mansion. These people all came alone or brought only one or two persons with them.

"Master, aren’t you coming in from the entrance?" A voice rang out in Qin Yu’s mind.

Telepathic communication—it was Mo Qilin, only the Mo Qilin, a ’Spiritual Beast’ with a soul connection to Qin Yu, would know of his arrival.

"Mo Qilin, you’ve told Big Brother about my return, haven’t you?" Qin Yu sent his thoughts to communicate.
