Chapter 385: Comprehending the Divine Power and Determining the Starry Sky Coordinates

When Lu Qing first broke through to the Xiantian realm, he was gifted with two divinely gifted abilities.

One was the physical power [Great Strength], and the other was the spiritual power [Illusion].

Both were minor abilities, but could be advanced through practice.

After years of contemplation, Lu Qing had gained a deep understanding of both of these innate minor abilities.

However, he was still some distance away from complete mastery.

Furthermore, his realm and strength limited his ability to unleash a limited power.

Now that he had broken through to the Foundation Establishment stage, his strength had greatly increased, and he should be able to further control these two minor abilities.

Time passed.

Wei family spies outside frequently brought news of the current chaos in the outer provinces, especially in Zhongzhou.

Sects frequently engaged in war over opportunities.

The Holy Mountain remained silent, failing to intervene to quell these conflicts.

This emboldened the major sects to become even more reckless, and the fighting escalated.

Some Xiantian realm cultivators even engaged in direct conflict within the city, resulting in considerable bloodshed.

At this point, all the rules established by the Holy Mountain thousands of years ago have vanished.

In such chaos, the remote Jiuli Village is surprisingly peaceful, turning into a pure land.

In this tranquility, Lu Qing comprehended his two innate minor magical powers and practiced quietly.

…

In the distant sky, on top of the huge meteorite, the mysterious Jindan Realm brothers were fiddling with a strange magic weapon, measuring the starry sky.

“Brother, how is it? Have you measured the starry sky coordinates of where we are?”

asked the young man in white robes.

“We can only measure an approximate direction. The area we are in is not recorded in the sect’s star map.

According to the direction measurement, we should still be in the Great Yuan Immortal Realm.

It’s just that we are in the dim area at the edge, so it is not recorded in the sect’s star map.”

said the gray-robed man.

“The edge of the Great Yuan Immortal Realm!” the white-robed youth was astonished. “We’ve actually reached such a distant star region. Senior Brother, your Void Boat can actually span half the Immortal Realm in a single stroke?”

“How is that even possible? If the Void Boat had that kind of power, how could I possibly activate it?”

The gray-robed man, though equally astonished, was much calmer than his junior brother.

Spanning half the Immortal Realm, what did it even mean? Even a supremely powerful spiritual weapon couldn’t possess such power.

Perhaps only the legendary [Dao Weapons] used by the top immortal sects to suppress their destiny could possess such incredible power.

“But Senior Brother, didn’t you say we’re at the edge of the Great Yuan Immortal Realm? If it weren’t for the Void Boat, how could we be here?” the white-robed youth asked, puzzled.

“This is truly incredible,”

the gray-robed man mused.

He was certain the Void Boat didn’t possess such power.

He had obtained this magical weapon from a strange secret realm. While quite miraculous, it had been damaged, and its power was at best equivalent to that of a low-grade spiritual weapon.

But the fact was, they had indeed arrived at a desolate edge of the land halfway outside the Immortal Realm.

The gray-robed man was certain that the measuring magic weapon in his hand was not broken.

There must have been some reason they had overlooked.

He carefully recalled their hasty escape after seizing the Pure Lotus.

As a Jindan realm expert, his memory was naturally exceptionally strong. The gray-robed man recalled the events of that day with uncanny clarity, as if they were still present.

He soon noticed something amiss.

“Junior Brother, do you remember? When we fled the secret realm that day, at the last moment I activated the Void Boat, besides the radiance of Sword One’s sword technique, another unusual light seemed to appear within the secret realm,”

the white-robed youth recalled.

Then, he said, also somewhat uncertainly, “It seemed as if a strange light had appeared, but I’m not sure if it was Jian Yi’s sword energy.”

The magical power Jian Yi had activated at that moment was truly terrifying.

Honestly, he was nearly terrified. If it weren’t for his senior brother’s successful activation of the Void Boat at the last moment, both of them would have perished in the secret realm.

“That must be it, if I’m not mistaken, it must be the light of the teleportation array.

It seems that when I activated the Void Boat, for some unknown reason, I triggered the ancient teleportation array in the secret realm.

The Void Boat’s ability to travel through the void, combined with the unknown teleportation array ,

has brought us directly to this desolate land on the edge of the fairyland.”

At this point, the gray-robed man’s tone was filled with relief.

If that was true, they were truly fortunate.

After all, while a teleportation array can transport people across space,

the greater the distance, the greater the spatial pressure on the person being transported.

Therefore, ordinary cultivators could only teleport within the same large world at best.

Even Jindan-level powerhouses had limits to the spatial pressure they could withstand.

The fact that they had survived their journey across half the Immortal Realm was likely due to the protection of the Void Boat.

“We’ve reached the edge of the Great Yuan Immortal Realm! Brother, what should we do?

With such a vast distance, even if we could contact the sect, it would likely take them decades to reach us,”

the white-robed youth said in a low voice.

The gray-robed man’s expression was equally grim.

With such a great distance, the value of the small world ahead would be greatly reduced to the sect.

Even if they set up a teleportation array, the cost of one transfer would be prohibitive, and the sect might not be willing to accommodate them.

He had originally thought that after the two brothers had entered and plundered the area, they would report the location of the small world to the sect and earn a small reward.

Now, it seemed that this plan was doomed.

“No matter what, this small world is still of great value to us. Let’s go in and plunder it first.

At worst, we can sell the coordinates of this small world to some sect in a nearby larger world and earn some spirit stones.”

Finally, the gray-robed man gritted his teeth and made a decision.

They would eventually have to return to their sect. This small world was too far away, and even if they reported it to the sect, they probably wouldn’t gain much.

It would be more cost-effective to sell it to another faction.

“That’s the only way,” the white-robed young man nodded. “But, brother, have you decided which faction to sell it to?”

“I just checked, and according to the star map, the closest larger world to us is the Tianyuan Large World. We can then sell the coordinates here to the immortal sect there.”

“Tianyuan Large World!”

the white-robed young man was astonished. This was a world renowned throughout the Great Yuan Immortal Realm.

Its overall strength was ranked in the top ten within the Great Yuan Immortal Realm, comparable to their own large world.

“Alright, let’s do as you say,” the white-robed young man agreed.

The gray-robed man gazed at the small world ahead, emitting a faint glow.

“Over the past month, our injuries have healed. Now, we just have to wait for this small world to revive and be able to accommodate us.”

Time passed day by day.

Under the gaze of the two Jindan-level brothers, the power of the small world ahead gradually grew stronger.

Finally, after more than half a month, the light suddenly increased.
