Why did Lin Xi, who was manifested by the heavenly punishment, have a trace of consciousness?
This question involved the past and present, as well as the laws of time and karma. Given Cheng Hao's current cultivation base, he still had no way to understand the principles behind it.
But no matter what, this was something beneficial to him. At the very least, it made it much easier for him to pass the heavenly punishment.
"After passing the Dao Severing stage, the next step is to re-cultivate the five great secret realms. The realms before the immortal emperor realm no longer have any barriers!"
After passing the heavenly punishment, Cheng Hao didn't feel agitated or tremble. His heart was calm, with no joy or worry. He stood in the cosmos for a very long time, planning his future cultivation path in detail.
Given that his fleshly body has reached the realm of infinite transformations, there were basically no barriers when he re-cultivated the Sea of Reincarnation, Dao Palace and the other four great secret realms. It was only a matter of time before he reached the peak of the seventh level of immortal-foundation.
As for the eighth level of immortal-foundation, he would need to condense the heavenheart imprint. It was a little similar to the heavenly dao sages of this world. As for whether he could cross this step, Cheng Hao wasn't 100% confident.
Standing in the dark and cold starry space, Cheng Hao's expression was calm and peaceful. He stretched out his body and faced the vast starry space. His eyes flashed and he suddenly opened his mouth, causing the surroundings to tremble.
Millions and millions of strands of astral light flowed along the star region, descending from the depths of the cosmos and gathering towards his body. They transformed into a silver sea, burying him within.
Cheng Hao's entire body shone with a treasured light. The pores on his body all opened up, allowing the astral light to gather and replenish the qi and blood he exhausted during the heavenly punishment.
His flesh and blood seemed to have transformed into countless ancient stars that flickered indeterminately. They were connected by numerous astral rivers and he was like a heavenly deity that had existed since the Supreme Ancient Era.
The stars were boundless and it was unknown how long it was before this place calmed down, returning to darkness and coldness. Cheng Hao's body was no longer glowing. His fleshly body was once again perfect.
"Next, it's time to cultivate!"
Glancing at the dark and lonely starry space around him, Cheng Hao took a step out, directly traversing boundless space and vanishing into the boundless void.
.....
In the depths of the unknown universe, on a planet with almost exhausted spiritual energy, there were deserts and barren mountains everywhere.
This was a short mountain with nothing special. There were only a few thatched cottages. After surviving the Heavenly Punishment, Cheng Hao lived here.
In front of the thatched cottage, there was a rack of lush green grapevines with strings of green grapes hanging from it. Next to it was a medicinal field with some old herbs and spirit plants planted there. A sweet fragrance assailed the nose.
In the distance, there was a desolate and gloomy world. Gongsun Waner had turned into the Lord of Darkness, appearing and disappearing in that gloomy area. She seemed to be cultivating, but also seemed to be playing.
"Young master, how long do you plan to spend in seclusion this time?" Suddenly, Gongsun Waner's clear voice sounded from afar.
"It won't take too long. This time, I'm just going to sort out my strength first. As for cultivating in seclusion, I definitely won't do it here!" Cheng Hao said lightly.
"That's right. After all, this is young master's main world. If you want to cultivate in seclusion, it's best to transmigrate to another world. That way, you can save a lot of time in the main world!"
Cheng Hao nodded and turned to look into the depths of the universe. That was the direction of the Big Dipper's main star. Lin Xi was still in the midst of her transformation and had yet to awaken.
"If she's awake, she should be able to reach the Mortal Immortal Realm, right?"
Cheng Hao felt a little anxious. If Lin Xi had already become a Mortal Immortal when he met her again, and he had not even reached the Great Emperor Realm, that would be too awkward.
He had already made up his mind. After sorting out his cultivation, he would rush to the Big Dipper's main star and see if he could still find the other secrets of the Nine Esotericas. After searching for a year and a half, he would transmigrate to another world and seize the time to raise his cultivation.
.....
Time passed bit by bit as Cheng Hao cultivated. There was almost no sound on this almost dried up planet. It was so quiet that it made one panic.
Meanwhile, on the faraway Big Dipper's main star, in the Northern Region Divine City, two people were gathered next to Cheng Hao's Number One Inn Under the Heavens.
"Little Fan, is the Senior Haotian you're talking about really the owner of this shady inn?" A handsome white-robed man asked the young man next to him softly with a look of disbelief on his face.
"Senior Jiang, how could it be fake? I went in for a meal, and that's how I got to know Senior Haotian. "The young man nodded solemnly.
"How unexpected …" the white-robed man sighed leisurely. He still had a look of disbelief on his face. "Senior Haotian likes this kind of thing!"
"He's a senior expert, after all. He's bound to have some special fetishes." The young man shook his head nonchalantly. "When I become a senior expert in the future, I'll collect all the God Sources in the world. Even if I don't use them, they're still pleasing to the eye!"
This young man was naturally Ye Fan. The white-robed man next to him was the Divine King, Jiang Taixu, whom Cheng Hao had rescued from the Purple Mountain.
Ever since Jiang Taixu escaped, he had come directly to the Northern Region Divine City. He did not even rush to the Jiang Family. Instead, he looked for Ye Fan first. The Great Emperor had personally instructed him to take care of this lad. He did not dare to let anything happen to him.
"Senior Jiang, Big Brother Haotian is probably delayed by something. He won't be back for a while. Why don't we explore other places first? For example, the ruins of the Snow Palace in the Northern Region Snow Plains. It's said that there are many treasures there. Why don't we explore it?"
Ye Fan knew very well that Jiang Taixu was a phenomenal Divine King. Even if he was not a Saint, he was at least a Third Immortal Severing Dao King. With such an expert around, it would be a waste if he did not bring him along to explore and search for treasures.
"You want to go to the ruins of the Snow Palace?" Jiang Taixu fell silent for a moment. Then, he nodded. "Alright, let's explore it together. Back then, I was trapped in the Purple Mountain and did not have the chance to explore the ruins."
Speaking of exploring the ruins, Jiang Taixu's adventurous nature could not help but become restless. Even though he had been trapped in the Purple Mountain, it did not change his adventurous nature.
In addition, Cheng Hao had asked him to help take care of Ye Fan. Jiang Taixu naturally would not reject Ye Fan's suggestion. The two of them hit it off immediately. After some simple preparations, Ye Fan even brought along a few of his friends and set off for the ruins of the Snow Palace.
.....
The Snow Palace was a great sect in the Northern Region. It had a long history, more than ten thousand years. Its strength was only below the Sacred Grounds.
Legend had it that their founder was not a human, but a Snow Ape. He was extremely powerful and could contend against the Sacred Grounds ten thousand years ago.
No matter how great a legacy was, there would be a time when it would wither away. No matter how powerful a person was, there would be a time when they would pass away. Nothing was eternal.
