The Heaven's Beyond Cosmos was a place where countless worlds intersected. It was rumoured that this was the only place where one could leave the Immortal World and head to a higher world. Moreover, many peak stage Immortal Emperors who came here would gain insights into the dao spirituality of a higher level than Immortal Emperors, allowing their cultivation to improve.
Cultivators from the various realms were fighting non-stop in this area in order to occupy an advantageous area in the Heaven's Beyond Cosmos so that they could more conveniently enter a higher realm in the future.
After years of fighting, the Heaven's Beyond Cosmos became a very unique place. While the various worlds were fighting for territory, they would also trade with each other.
Over time, the periphery of the Heaven's Beyond Cosmos became a common area. Even though this common area would often see fights and killings, it was considered the most peaceful place in the entire Heaven's Beyond Cosmos.
This place was the common area of the Heaven's Beyond Cosmos, also known as the Cosmos Edge.
Cultivators of all sorts of races and worlds could trade in the Cosmos Edge. It was precisely because of this that the Cosmos Edge was the most prosperous place in the Heaven's Beyond Cosmos. At the same time, the Cosmos Edge was also the epitome of the powers of the various races. Whoever had more bases or merchant houses in the Cosmos Edge would have the greatest power in the Heaven's Beyond Cosmos.
In the Cosmos Edge, there were three main sources of treasures. The first was the Shattered Ruins at the periphery of the Heaven's Beyond Cosmos. The second was the Heaven's Beyond Secret Realm and the third was the Heaven's Beyond Corridor.
The resources of the Heaven's Beyond Corridor mainly came from the Cosmos Wall. In reality, this place had the least amount of treasures. The only thing worth mentioning was the green crystal. Other than the green crystal, the other items might not be of low grade, but there weren't any top-notch heaven-shaking treasures.
However, the Heaven's Beyond Corridor was indeed the main source of cultivation resources. Even though there was a Heaven's Beyond City Square in the Heaven's Beyond Corridor, most of the cultivation resources from the Cosmos Wall flowed into the Cosmos Edge.
On the surface, it seemed like the Human Race and the Demon Race were the ones collecting cultivation resources in the Heaven's Beyond Corridor. In reality, it wasn't because these two races were the strongest and could occupy the Cosmos Wall.
Instead, it was because the Heaven's Beyond Corridor rotated once every thousand years. Every thousand years, there would be two races representing them to occupy the Heaven's Beyond Corridor to fight for the cultivation resources of the Cosmos Wall. This time, the ones occupying the Heaven's Beyond Corridor were the Human Race and the Demon Race. Within these thousand years, if other races wanted to enter the Heaven's Beyond Corridor to obtain the treasures of the Cosmos Wall, they would have to join the Human Race or the Demon Race.
In this one thousand years, no matter whether you joined the Human Clan or the Demon Clan, you had to help the clan you joined fight to the end.
In reality, all the immortals who came to the Heaven's Beyond Corridor in search of cultivation resources, regardless of whether they joined the Human Race or the Demon Race, ended up in an extremely miserable state. The moment one entered the Heaven's Beyond Corridor, it was basically impossible to return to the Heaven's Beyond Cosmos. The cost of teleporting back was not something ordinary people could afford. The longer you stay in the Heaven's Beyond Corridor, the harder it will be for you to leave.
Logically speaking, the Cosmos Wall would open frequently in the Heaven's Beyond Corridor, so there was no need to worry about cultivation resources. Thus, it didn't matter whether he returned or not.
Actually, that was not the case. There was no need to talk about the occasional war in the Heaven's Beyond Corridor. Most of the wars were for no reason and were purely for the sake of fighting for cultivation resources. In this place, most immortals died on the battlefield.
Even if there were no wars for the sake of the Cosmos Wall, staying in the Heaven's Beyond Corridor for an extended period of time would result in the destruction of one's dao foundation.
The desert wasteland of the Heaven's Beyond Corridor was filled with a desolate deathly energy which could corrode one's dao foundation. Over the years of wars, the deathly energy here had accumulated more and more. In this place, one's cultivation would soar by leaps and bounds. The moment one stayed for an extended period of time, one would forever remain at the same place, unable to advance any further.
This was also the reason why no Immortal Emperor was willing to stay in the Heaven's Beyond Corridor. In a place like this, even an Immortal Emperor's dao foundation would be corroded.
The reason why Teng Feiyan and Kuang Jin were able to step into the Immortal Emperor Stage was mainly because the two of them spent most of their time in the Heaven's Beyond City Square. At the very most, they would fight for some cultivation resources when the Cosmos Wall opened.
How many cultivators had such fates? Every few days, most cultivators would head to the desert wasteland of the Heaven's Beyond Corridor to fight.
Even Teng Feiyan and Kuang Jin, who had good fates, would lose their opportunity to affirm their dao if they stayed in the Heaven's Beyond Corridor for too long.
Kuang Jin was fortunate to have met a Tier 9 Pill Emperor in just a few hundred years. After a period of time, even if he met Mo Wuji, he might not be able to confirm his Dao here. Teng Feiyan was the prefecture lord of the market and had access to countless cultivation resources. That was how he managed to attain the Emperor Realm. He needed to leave this place as soon as possible after he became a Dao Emperor.
…
The Very High Heavens was a Human Race power in the Heaven's Beyond Cosmos. In reality, when the Very High Heavens first arrived in the Heaven's Beyond Cosmos, they still had a certain level of strength. Over the years, many talented geniuses from the Very High Heavens were sent to the Heaven's Beyond Corridor. These immortals who entered the Heaven's Beyond Corridor were basically all killed.
Because of this, the Very High Heavens' strength slowly weakened. Presently, the Very High Heavens occupied less than 90% of the land compared to when they first arrived at the Heaven's Beyond Cosmos. They only had an ordinary cosmos city and even their encampment in Cosmos Edge had been snatched away.
Very High Heavens Cosmos Immortal City was the only encampment of the Very High Heavens in the Heaven's Beyond Cosmos.
At this instant, in the Very High Heavens' palace, an expressionless middle-aged man was seated at the seat of honour. On both sides of him sat over ten people. Every single one of them had surging energy around them and even the weakest one was in the advanced Immortal Reverent Stage.
This middle-aged man was called Ping Lishang and he was in the Great Circle of the Immortal Emperor Stage. He was also the castellan of the Very High Heavens Cosmos Immortal City. In the Very High Heavens, his position was second only to Dao Emperor Zi Changluo. Everyone knew that he worked for Zi Changluo and he had to listen to all of Zi Changluo's orders.
"Zai Yang, tell me the exact details of the destruction of the Heaven's Beyond Corridor City Square. Also, describe the portrait of that human race Pill Emperor." Ping Lishang's tone was just like his expression; there were no fluctuations.
"Yes." A slightly skinny old man stood up and clasped his fists, "Back then, there was a Pill Emperor called Mo Wuji who managed a Mortal Pill House in the Heaven's Beyond City Square. This person was a Tier 8 Pill Emperor and the pills he concocted were far cheaper than Mifei Pill-Smith Pavilion. Thus, Mifei Pill-Smith Pavilion was dissatisfied. Eventually, Mifei Pill-Smith Pavilion's Pavilion Head reported this to Mifei Trade Union … "
"Mifei Pill-Smith Pavilion had four Immortal Reverents and they actually reported this to the Trade Union?" A young woman seated beside Ping Lishang asked curiously.
Zai Yang explained, "Even though this Mo Wuji was a Tier 8 Pill Emperor, he should have obtained an extremely good inheritance. He actually used a True Emperor Pill to incite the rebellion of Mifei Pill-Smith Pavilion's Great Circle Immortal Reverent Kuang Jin. It's even rumoured that he killed the bisexual Immortal Reverent Ji Qi. Mifei Pill-Smith Pavilion's Min Cheng has a cautious character which was why he reported this to the Trade Union. "
Ping Lishang nodded, "I know about this matter. Continue."
Even though the Very High Heavens' power was suppressed in the Heaven's Beyond Cosmos, they still had their own shop in the Heaven's Beyond City Square. He had heard of Mifei Trade Union sending an Immortal Emperor to the Heaven's Beyond City Square but he didn't think much of it. In his eyes, that Mortal Pill House was courting death. After Mifei Trade Union sent an Immortal Emperor, Mortal Pill House was completely gone.
"The Immortal Emperor that Mifei Trade Union sent was called Du Hong. I didn't expect that after Du Hong went to the Heaven's Beyond City Square, he disappeared without a trace. He should have been killed by that Pill Emperor Mo …"
A voice interrupted Zai Yang's words, "I know that Du Hong is at the peak of the early Immortal Emperor Stage. Even an average intermediate Immortal Emperor might not be a match for him. That Mo Wuji is only a Pill Emperor so how could he kill Du Hong? Could it be that Kuang Jin helped him after he became an Immortal Emperor? "
Zai Yang continued, "Previously, I also had my suspicions. Later on, news spread that Mifei Trade Union sent another three Immortal Emperors, Ou Zhaohe, Ling Rong and De Pingsha, to the Heaven's Beyond City Square. The three of them surrounded Mortal Pill House. Kuang Jin, who had already become an Immortal Emperor, was so afraid that he escaped the Heaven's Beyond City Square the moment the battle started. That Mo Wuji fought against three Immortal Emperors alone. Eventually, he self-destructed his defensive array and killed both Ou Zhaohe and Ling Rong. Only De Pingsha saw the opportunity and escaped back to the Heaven's Beyond Cosmos. Clearly, Du Hong's death shouldn't have anything to do with Kuang Jin. "
Gasps of cold air could be heard. No one knew who Mo Wuji was. However, everyone here knew who Ou Zhaohe and Ling Rong were.
Ou Zhaohe was in the advanced Immortal Emperor Stage. He was a powerful existence that could do whatever he wanted in Cosmos Edge. That Ling Rong was a cold-blooded Immortal Emperor and was equally powerful. However, he actually died in the hands of a Pill Emperor from Mortal Pill House. This was simply too shocking.
Zai Yang's voice could be heard once more, "Heaven's Beyond City Square was razed to the ground during that battle. However, Mo Wuji had disappeared. Presently, in Cosmos Edge, the City Square is negotiating with Mifei Trade Union. They want Mifei Trade Union to compensate for the losses of Heaven's Beyond City Square. "
"Is there an image of that Mo Wuji?" Ping Lishang's voice became even deeper.
Zai Yang raised his hand and drew in the air. An image of a blue-robed youth appeared in front of everyone.
A golden-robed man, who was seated in the corner, saw this image. He immediately clenched his fists. In less than a breath's time, he had completely concealed his anger and agitation.
"Has anyone seen this person before?" Ping Lishang's gaze swept across everyone in the hall.
No one stood up to speak. Clearly, no one here recognised Mo Wuji.
"Since no one recognised him, this discussion shall end here. Sun Lin, follow me to the Heaven's Beyond Immortal Alliance." Ping Lishang stood up.
"Yes." The person who stood up was a woman seated beside Ping Lishang. Previously, she was the one who asked Zai Yang why Mifei Pill-Smith Pavilion reported to the Trade Union.
All the experts in the hall stood up. Everyone knew that Ping Lishang wanted to seek help from the Heaven's Beyond Immortal Alliance to establish an encampment in Cosmos Edge. The Human Race, which was represented by the Very High Heavens, originally had an encampment in Cosmos Edge. However, following the rise of the various races, the power of the Very High Heavens weakened. Now, they were chased out of Cosmos Edge.
Without a place in Cosmos Edge, they would definitely be chased out of Cosmos Edge.
