The Blood Sea was stirring — the Nether River Patriarch was about to awaken!
In the Sura Sea, the Nether River Patriarch's consciousness was slowly awakening, and a will was emanating —
"The Yuan Killer Sword!"
Those three words echoed in the ears of every Sura above the Blood Sea. The many Sura elites traded glances, with several Grand Luo quickly communicating through acoustics, with one of the elders saying, "The Yuan Killer Sword, our greatest treasure, was lost in the battle all those years ago. Our patriarch is about to awaken, and he must have sensed it. Everyone, mobilize every intelligence network of our race to gather information about the Yuan Killer Sword."
"When the time comes, our patriarch would return, and with the Yuan Killer Sword and Avici, he would be invincible beneath Saints!"
… …
At the celestial battlefield.
As the immortals who had gone to Earth returned one after another, as well as the immortal sects, demonic sects, and daemon cultivators migrating, the names of Jiang He and Wang Hou began to spread across the celestial battlefield.
Some immortals who returned from Earth directly turned into storytellers, spreading the news everywhere.
They deliberately avoided and downplayed Jiang He and Wang Hou's contributions in protecting Earth, exaggerating instead, spreading the news that Jiang He and Wang Hou had subjugated immortal sects, demonic sects, and cultivators, forcing them to migrate.
If Jiang He was there, he would definitely recognize that most of them were immortals from immortal sects who held grudges against him.
For example, the Taixu Sect had migrated to the celestial battlefield as well, but none of them spoke ill of Jiang He and Wang Hou.
Of course.
Jiang He was not aware of those things.
Right now, he was sunbathing beneath an umbrella by the beach.
Beside him, Hu Mei, Boa Hancock, and Sora were massaging his back and feeding him grapes, living a carefree life.
There was a sun, moon, and stars in his farm too.
Time flowed the same as the outside world.
When the sun set and night came, Jiang He set up a bonfire on the beach and grilled some meat.
Dumbo brought him beer.
Snikt!
Its paw opened, and Frost True Qi erupted.
With its left hand holding the beer and its right hand grilling the meat, it said happily, "After drinking so many immortal brews with you, Master, I still feel that cold beer goes best with grilled meat … by the way, Master, what meat is this? It tastes good and has abundant qi, and it actually refines my body after I eat it. "
Dumbo was now an immortal daemon, and his martial arts cultivation was not weak either.
Ordinary demon beast flesh was useless to him.
Jiang He took a sip of the iced beer and felt that the texture was a little lacking. As such, he simply dug a hole in the sand and threw a bottle of iced beer inside, as well as several grains of Living Soil of the Nine Heavens to strengthen the texture.
The beach was also within the farm.
Beer was a common item, but it grew very fast on the farm. Within ten minutes, a two-meter-tall tree with bottles of Snow Beer had sprouted from the ground.
Strangely, these beers were all chilled.
Jiang He plucked one bottle.
"Ding!"
[+ 1 Farm Point.]
He opened it and took a sip. It tasted much better than before. Then, he took a sip and a bite of roasted meat. Smiling, he said, "This is a Star Behemoth I ran into in outer space some time ago. It's shaped like an ox, and is about four thousand kilometers long. It's roughly equal to a true immortal."
"There are many fun places in the universe. When we reach the next city, I'll let you guys come out for a breather …"
After having his fill, Jiang He rose to his feet and yawned.
Boa Hancock promptly came up to him and said sweetly, "Master, I'll help you rest."
Hu Mei said coquettishly, "I'll come with you."
Sora blushed and mused to herself for seconds, before whispering, "Master, I … I …"
"No need to find excuses. You're coming too!"
Jiang He laughed out loud.
He brought the three women into the villa at the corner of the farm. With a wave of his hand, an array formation isolated the villa from the outside world. This way, no matter how loud the commotion and cries inside the villa were, no one outside would be able to hear anything.
"Hmph!"
A soft snort could be heard from the other side of the farm.
The willow tree, which was now several hundred meters tall and had a canopy that covered over a thousand meters, was swaying its branches. A pretty loli face appeared on its trunk, and she said angrily, "Master, you've been telling Sister Hu Mei and the others to warm your bed every day, but you wouldn't let me. Isn't that because I'm too small?"
"But our trees grow so slowly. What can I do?"
A night of spring breeze.
The next morning, Jiang He stepped out of his farm feeling refreshed.
He saw Wang Hou the moment he stepped out of his farm. The latter was sitting cross-legged atop a mountain, cultivating. Martial Dao aura wafted around his body, while the Martial Yuan Spirit over his head moved in sync with his true form. Behind him was a vast Grotto-Heaven of untold size.
Layers of space overlapped within the Grotto-Heaven, with the sun, moon, and stars swirling within, making it appear very mystical.
Sensing Jiang He's arrival, Wang Hou slowly opened his eyes.
"Minister Wang's cultivation has become even more unfathomable recently."
Jiang He praised, while Wang Hou said, "After resigning from my post at the Martial Arts Department (MAD), I'm free from all distracting thoughts, and my cultivation has certainly gone much smoother."
His immortal will swept out and found that Wang Siyu was still in seclusion, and Jiang He suddenly remembered something and asked, "By the way, Minister Wang, I remember that you had cultivated for a hundred years inside the Star Map in less than a month. Could there be an array that accelerates time inside the Star Map?"
Wang Hou nodded. "There is, but I accidentally entered the Star Map and triggered it. It was probably left behind by the superior being who created the Star Map all those years ago."
"Right now, I can only charge sixty to seventy percent of the Star Map's power, and I can't activate the array."
"I see."
Jiang He was a little disappointed.
Otherwise, there was a high chance that he could create a batch of Overdeities by the time they reached the celestial battlefield with the help of the array.
After waiting for another hour, Wang Siyu finally ended her seclusion. Her cultivation had stabilized, and she was all smiles as she said, "Jiang He, Minister Wang, I've kept you waiting."
"It's fine. We're not in a hurry this time, so it's better to stop and look at the stars along the way. It would help with enlightenment."
Taking out a star map and studying it carefully, Jiang He said, "We should be in the Spirit Realm right now. It is a rather unique constellation in the universe, and its ruler is a fruit tree. It is extremely powerful and is one of the strongest beings barring Saints."
"Spirit Realm is home to many spirits of nature. That's why it's coveted by the other races. Cultivators from other races often sneak into Spirit Realm and kill the cultivators of the Spirit Race … That's why most of the cultivators of Spirit Realm are gathered on the vital planets at the center of Spirit Realm. There are powerful cultivators of the Spirit Race there, and ordinary Demi-Saints never return.
"There are quite a few Eldars in the outer reaches of the Spirit Realm as well, such as the planet we are on. However, most of them have just gained sentience and had just taken human form, and the strongest among them are merely Convergence-tier … one day, a foreign elite might descend and kill every Eldar on this planet."
"How cruel!"
Wang Siyu exclaimed.
Was it cruel?
Very cruel.
But such a sight was all too common in outer space.
The Eldars were floral spirits that had attained Dao as rare herbs, and any Eldar could be used as medicine after they were killed. They were treasures in themselves, and treasures were the bane of their existence. That was only because the Eldars were powerful, and their ruler was one of the strongest beneath Saints, capable of protecting an entire race. Otherwise, the race would have been wiped out.
There were countless lesser races that were wiped out in the universe. Even Earth would have been wiped out if the elites of the celestial battlefield did not fight on the frontlines, if they did not leave many backup plans on Earth, and if Jiang He and Marquis did not rise to prominence, Earth would have been wiped out as well, with billions of people enslaved.
Jiang He did not dwell on the topic and said, "There are warp portals at the core of the Eldars, but they are extremely xenophobic. That is why we have to cross the Spirit Realm from its outer reaches, reach Blaze City, and take the warp portal to the Galactic Empire."
Jiang He put away the Star Map.
They would be halfway through their journey once they reached the Galactic Empire. Moreover, the closer they got to the celestial battlefield, the more powerful races they would encounter, and all of them had the ability to build warp portals that could cross an entire constellation with a single warp. In just days, they would reach the celestial battlefield.
