Time flowed like water, but also like quicksand.
Heart Palace, Heart Palace, Chen Zong stepped out of the secret chamber. His eyes were deep and boundless, and his aura was as one, as if it was compressed into a point and contained in his body, circulating endlessly.
"Master, Heart Palace, Senior Sister, let's go." Chen Zong glanced at the three of them and said.
"Alright, let me see what the universe is like." Heart Palace Master smiled, full of anticipation.
Under normal circumstances, only the third realm was suitable to go to the universe. At the fourth realm, if one entered the universe, they would be repelled. Needless to say, the repelling force of the fifth realm was even greater. It was a complete suppression. They might even be crushed directly, their souls scattered, and turn into ashes.
But now, Heart Palace Master planned to go to the universe because he had mastered the last realm of the Heart Sutra: Heart Returning to Truth. The changes brought about by this were shocking. At least under the continuous deduction of the master and disciple, Heart Palace Master could theoretically leave the void and enter the universe. Then, he would slowly adapt to the universe's environment and finally fully adapt to the universe.
The fifth realm of the Heart Sutra was amazing. It was like turning into a singularity, condensing the power of one's mind, essence, energy, spirit, and so on to the extreme. Even one's own strength seemed to be self-contained, and one could continuously absorb energy from the outside world to improve oneself.
In short, after mastering the Heart Returning to Truth, one's body seemed to have really become a small universe. In this way, Heart Palace Master had the possibility of entering the universe and gradually adapting to it.
Of course, it was more or less risky, but this was Heart Palace Master's choice.
Ask in the morning and die in the evening!
If he didn't know about the universe, it would be fine. But if he knew about the universe, Heart Palace Master also wanted to enter the universe and understand the mysteries of the universe. He would continue to advance on the path of cultivation, break through the fifth realm, and strive for a higher realm.
In the past, it was impossible, but now, it was very possible. Even if there was the danger of death, Heart Palace Master was unwilling to give up.
This was Heart Palace Master's decision, and Chen Zong couldn't stop it. In addition, after many deductions, even if there was danger, he could retreat in time and try.
A hundred years!
It had been exactly one hundred years since Chen Zong returned.
In the past 100 years, he had spent most of his time on deducing and simulating the fifth level of the Heart Sutra, as well as breaking through. Of course, his own cultivation, swordsmanship, Great Dao, and so on did not fall behind. He was constantly comprehending and improving. Compared to 100 years ago, he had made considerable progress.
The increase in his cultivation base was not great. The main point was the application of his own power, the power of his swordsmanship, the development and application of his Great Dao, and so on. Compared to a hundred years ago, the improvement was astonishing.
After Chen Zong's One Heart Sutra reached the fifth level, One Heart Returning to Truth, he went into seclusion for a few more years before coming out. He took Yu Nianxin with him and left the Will Heavenly Palace for the Lingwu Holy World.
This was because he still had his family and friends in the Lingwu Sacred World.
After spending a few years in the Lingwu Sacred World with his father, elder sister, and younger sister, he held a wedding with Yu Nianxin under their witness. After that, he brought Yu Nianxin back to the Will Heavenly Palace.
It was worth mentioning that the spiritual qi of heaven and earth in the Lingwu Sacred World was more than ten times denser than before. This increased the upper limit of the Lingwu Sacred World's power, and gave birth to a few first-tier Ascension experts.
His return, the breakthrough of the Heart Sutra, and now it was the end.
He took Yu Nianxin to see his father and others. Now, he had fulfilled some of his wishes. Now, it was time to return to the universe.
Although the void was good, if he wanted to continue cultivating and step into a higher realm, he still needed to be in the universe.
With Yi Xin Daolord's departure, the One Heart Palace lineage of the Will Heavenly Palace became even more low-key. However, at least there was still a successor. North Dao Sky Wolf Luo Beichuan was now in the fourth realm, and was also a well-known expert.
The fifth level of the One Heart Sutra was naturally taught to Luo Beichuan and the other two disciples. If they could master it in the future, they could enter the universe to understand the mysteries of the higher realms. This was considered as leaving a path for them to continue moving forward.
After everything was done, the four of them set off for the Nine Heavens Imperial Court through the passage.
With Chen Zong's current status, the Nine Heavens Imperial Court wouldn't say anything. On the contrary, they would give him face.
"Is this the universe?" Yi Xin Daolord appeared in the Nine Heavens Imperial Court and felt an aura that was completely different from the void. It was an indescribable vastness. Compared to it, the void was like a pool, and the universe was a vast ocean.
In the void, the fifth realm was the peak, the upper limit, and the ultimate.
However, in the universe, the fifth realm was only the beginning of an expert, and there was a huge difference.
It was like jumping out of a well. Perhaps with one's strength, one still couldn't leave the well, but it was enough to see the world outside the well. It was so vast that it couldn't be compared to the inside of the well.
Fortunately, Yi Xin Daolord wasn't repelled. However, when he wanted to use the power of his cultivation, the repelling feeling immediately appeared. He had no choice but to restrain his power and use the One Heart Sutra.
As a result, Yi Xin Daolord couldn't fight.
Fortunately, this wasn't permanent. He needed time to slowly get used to it and change his cultivation power bit by bit. The method was naturally to cultivate the martial arts of the universe.
As for which martial arts to cultivate, it was very simple. There were inheritances in the Nine Heavens Imperial Court. The three supreme inheritances were enough to cultivate to the Emperor level.
In addition, it was the comprehension of the Great Dao. The Great Dao in the void was incomplete compared to the Great Dao in the universe. However, it could be improved, but it also needed time.
After returning, Chen Zong didn't plan to stay in the Nine Heavens Imperial Court for long. After all, it had been 110 years since he left Mount Taihao. It was time to go back.
As for Yu Nianxin, he held a simple wedding under his father's witness. Whether in name or in reality, she was his wife and cultivation partner. In theory, Chen Zong should leave with Yu Nianxin. However, Yu Nianxin's strength was indeed not strong enough. It would be better for her to stay in the Nine Heavens Imperial Court for the time being.
In the end, it was still because he wasn't strong enough. He didn't have much confidence in bringing Yu Nianxin to Mount Taihao.
However, although Yu Nianxin stayed in the Nine Heavens Imperial Court, Chen Zong also gave some of his cultivation resources to Yu Nianxin so that she could cultivate better. In addition, Chen Zong even gave three drops of the Sword Dao Source Power given to him by the Tianguang Peak Lord to Yu Nianxin as a life-saving trump card.
Of course, Yu Nianxin's stay was only temporary. Chen Zong planned to ask the experts of Mount Taihao to bring Yu Nianxin over after returning to Mount Taihao.
However, Chen Zong thought again. Although Yu Nianxin couldn't go to Mount Taihao with him for the time being,
She could go to the Trade Wind Brothel first. With the cultivation environment and resources of the Trade Wind Brothel, the Nine Heavens Imperial Court couldn't compare to it. It would definitely help her improve further.
"Master, I'll take my leave first." Chen Zong saluted Yi Xin Dao Master with his sword and nodded at Third Senior Sister Yu Wuxia. Then, he held Yu Nianxin's hand and turned to leave.
After watching Chen Zong leave, the three of them also returned to their respective cultivation areas.
Yi Xin Dao Master needed a lot of time to adapt to the environment of the Great Cosmos. As for how long it would take, it was hard to say. However, given Yi Xin Dao Master's ability, it shouldn't take too long.
…
When Chen Zong returned, he hurried on his own. When he left, he did the same. He brought Yu Nianxin along as he flew through the void of the universe. They flew out of the Nine Heavens Universe and towards the Mystical Light Universe.
Chen Zong's cultivation hadn't improved significantly in the past 100 years. At most, it was equivalent to a few years of cultivation progress in the universe. In comparison, he had wasted a lot of time. However, was it really a waste of time?
No, Chen Zong could say with certainty that he hadn't wasted any time at all.
Although the improvement of his cultivation base had been slow, he had made significant progress in the application of his cultivation power. This was due to the Taihao Sword Sage's White Jade Sword Path and his own hard work over the past 100 years. In addition, he had made a breakthrough in the Heart Sutra. When it came to the application of his power, Chen Zong believed that he had improved by leaps and bounds.
In terms of the five Great Paths, the improvement was also slow because the Void Law wasn't as good as the Universal Law. He had made some progress in the Nurturing Path Spirit, but it definitely couldn't be compared to when he was in the Universe. However, Chen Zong had also improved a lot in the application of the power of the five Great Paths.
The application didn't have much to do with the external environment. As long as he was willing to work hard and had enough talent and time, he could improve.
In fact, Chen Zong's cultivation base had improved very fast before. At least in the Universe, it was at the top level. Such a fast improvement had its advantages and disadvantages. However, for Chen Zong, it wasn't a bad thing. After all, Chen Zong's foundation was very solid.
However, a hundred years was equivalent to settling down. Further settling down was always beneficial.
Therefore, even if the improvement of his cultivation base and Great Paths was not big after a hundred years, Chen Zong believed that his strength was at least several times stronger than it had been a hundred years ago.
Chen Zong didn't know what level his strength was at now. After all, in addition to the hundred years of settling down and tempering, the biggest variable was the breakthrough in the Heart Sutra.
The fifth level of the Heart Sutra was the Heart Returning to Truth!
Returning to one's true self, returning to one's true self, represented a qualitative change, and also a kind of extreme.
Chen Zong was sure that if he and his master had chosen the Heart Intent Realm as the fifth level of the Heart Sutra, it definitely wouldn't have been as good as the fifth level of the Heart Returning to Truth. One was a quantitative change, while the other was a qualitative change. It was a qualitative leap.
Then, what was the difference or special characteristic of the Heart Returning to Truth Realm of the fifth level of the Heart Sutra compared to the previous level?
The power of the mind condensed into a singularity and absorbed the essence, Qi, and spirit, leading all the power in the body. It was as if it had become a body of its own, as if it had turned into an internal small universe.
To some extent, it was like cultivating a magical constitution, but it wasn't really a constitution. It didn't conflict with the Fiendgod Sword Codex at all. Instead, it could control all the power in the body and make the power of the power more thoroughly.
