Library of Heaven’s Path Chapter 2221 - Returning to the Azure

Chapter 2221 Returning to the Azure

It did not take long for a peculiar force to emanate from the Seal of Supreme Monarch. It felt reminiscent of a guiding beacon that led one to one’s destination.

I see… In between the Firmament and the Azure lies an area of chaotic s.p.a.ce that prevents one from traveling from one side to the other. The ritual serves not to teleport a person from one side to another but to provide specific coordinates so that one won’t lose one’s way…

Zhang Xuan nodded in realization. He had thought that the ritual would allow them to teleport straight to the Azure, but it seemed like he was overthinking it.

Teleportation between worlds was a highly difficult feat that even the Spirit G.o.d’s Seal of Supreme Monarch was incapable of pulling off.

But even if I have the coordinates, can I really just travel there like that? What about the dimension barrier?

Zhang Xuan was bewildered.

With a contemplative look on his face, he walked over to the sealed s.p.a.ce ahead of him. Channeling all his zhenqi into the G.o.d King Sword, he tried to slice an opening in the sealed s.p.a.ce.

Fshhh!

To his surprise, even though it took him a great deal of effort, he managed to make a small opening in the sealed s.p.a.ce. He quickly beckoned for Luo Qiqi and Little Chick to slip through opening with him.

I thought that it would be impossible to break the dimension barrier, but maybe the key is to not teleport through it and to breach it physically. This seems similar to how it is easier to pa.s.s through the dimension barrier when you are ascending to a higher world as compared to when you are descending to a lower world…

This could be the design of nature to avoid an imbalance of the world.

Beyond the sealed s.p.a.ce was a chaotic s.p.a.ce filled with spatial turbulence. The spatial turbulence struck relentlessly on the barrier that Zhang Xuan had created around them, swiftly whittling it down.

Zhang Xuan could feel the zhenqi in his body depleting swiftly. He tried to quickly head in the direction of the coordinates signaled by the Seal of Supreme Monarch, but he realized that he was hardly able to move.

Chaotic s.p.a.ce was reminiscent of a spatial vortex, but it was in an even more disorderly state. The s.p.a.ce in the area was all flowing in different directions, making it difficult for even a G.o.d Monarch to travel in a straight path.

If not for Zhang Xuan’s superior zhenqi, their bodies and souls would have been torn into shreds as soon as they entered the area, let alone venturing through it.

“I have been through this place before,” Luo Qiqi said. “Tell me the location, and I’ll bring you there.”

“Alright!”

Knowing that Luo Qiqi’s powers over s.p.a.ce far surpa.s.sed his, Zhang Xuan quickly described the coordinates that the Seal of Supreme Monarch was pointing toward.

Nodding, Luo Qiqi took a step forward and morphed back into the Dimension Silencer.

Hu!

She froze the chaotic s.p.a.ce and swiftly advanced forth.

I really wonder what tier the Dimension Silencer is as an artifact, Zhang Xuan thought curiously as he looked at the steady pa.s.sageway that was crafted through the abilities of the Dimension Silencer.

Be it a spatial vortex or chaotic s.p.a.ce, as long as it was something related to the spatial laws, the Dimension Silencer would be able to handle it easily. This was a feat that not all G.o.d Monarchs were necessarily capable of pulling off.

He could not help but wonder about Luo Qiqi’s origin. It was no wonder she had risen all the way to G.o.d King realm pinnacle within a month after arriving in the Firmament, and she had hardly met any bottlenecks in her cultivation.

He had really made the right choice bringing her along. Otherwise, even with his G.o.d King realm sword art, Filial Piety, it would have been difficult for him to pa.s.s through the spatial vortex and chaotic s.p.a.ce to arrive at the Azure.

Traveling through monotonous surroundings, it was hard for Zhang Xuan and the others to discern the pa.s.sing of time accurately. They simply flew on and on until Luo Qiqi finally came to a halt. She morphed back into her human form before gesturing forward. “We have arrived.”

Zhang Xuan realized that the coordinates he was receiving from the Seal of Supreme Monarch were just right ahead of him.

“Let’s head in,” Zhang Xuan said.

He was just about to head right in when he suddenly realized that the entire world had started shaking violently due to his attempted entry. It looked as if it would really shatter if he forced his way in.

“The s.p.a.ce in the Azure is simply too weak. It’s similar to a thin layer of ice above the winter river; it might be able to handle the weight of a child, but it’ll succ.u.mb as soon as an adult tries to step on it,” Luo Qiqi said. “Our powers as G.o.d Kings far surpa.s.s what the heavens of the Azure can withstand. If we force our way through, we might cause the heavens to shatter and the entire world to collapse.”

Zhang Xuan nodded. “You’re right. It seems like we’ll have to lower our cultivation accordingly.”

When he first became a G.o.d, he had also sensed the heavens of the Azure rejecting his presence. As a G.o.d King, he was tens of thousands of times stronger than before, so naturally, his presence would be even harder for the heavens of the Azure to withstand.

So, he took a deep breath and reined in his zhenqi within his dantian.

Kacha! Kacha!

His cultivation began to plummet.

In just a few moments, his cultivation had already fallen to the level of a Semi-Divinity.

Other than his zhenqi cultivation, he also made sure to suppress his physical prowess and soul cultivation as well. So, other than his comprehension of cultivation having reached the level of a G.o.d King, he appeared to be nothing more than a Semi-Divinity. Even a G.o.d Monarch would not be able to see through his disguise.

Luo Qiqi quickly did the same. She sealed her powers using her spatial abilities, causing her cultivation to fall all the way to that of a Semi-Divinity.

As for Little Chick, it hesitated for a moment before saying, “I think you should just pa.s.s my gourd over to me…”

Zhang Xuan had been holding onto the sh.e.l.ls of the gourd that it had been sealed in ever since it hatched.

“Alright then.”

Receiving the gourd, Little Chick slipped into it and reverted to its form as the Dongxu Gourd. This act effectively sealed off its cultivation as well.

After everything was prepared and ready to go, the two humans and a gourd quickly made their way over to where the coordinate was.

Tzzz!

An overwhelming spatial pressure crushed down on them, and innumerable heavenly lightning bolts surrounded them.

Even though they had tried their best to lower their cultivation, it seemed like the heavens of the Azure had still identified them as intruders and were trying their best to resist them.

Under the relentless offense, the three of them ended up sustaining quite some damage before they were able to overcome the lightning tribulation to enter the Azure.

It was then that they found Du Qingyuan and Wu Chen standing above a vast ocean with pale faces. Not too far away from them, an altar was releasing a light glow.

Looking around, they were at the Vacant Sea, where Luo Ruoxin had descended the previous time. Back then, she had entered grievously wounded, causing her blood to scatter into the ocean and soak the stones around the area.

Only at this moment did he finally realize why even a G.o.d Monarch like Luo Ruoxin would sustain such severe damage entering the Azure.

In order to avoid the heavens of the Azure from shattering, she could only lower her cultivation, and that made it difficult for her to overcome the lightning tribulation that came from entering the Azure as an intruder.

“Paying respects to Young Master!”

“Paying respects to Sect Leader Zhang!”

Du Qingyuan and Wu Chen bowed deeply.

The news they had received was that the Spirit G.o.d was going to descend among them, so they did not expect to meet Zhang Xuan instead.

When did he become the Spirit G.o.d?

“Let’s head to Starchaser Palace first.”

Without any hesitation, he tore apart the fabric of s.p.a.ce and traversed straight to Starchaser Palace.

Even though his cultivation was only at Semi-Divinity, through his deeper comprehension of s.p.a.ce and more refined control over his zhenqi, he was still able to tear open and traverse through s.p.a.ce.

After arriving at Starchaser Palace, Zhang Xuan took a swift look around and found that there were far more Pseudo Immortals, True Immortals, and High Immortals. He nodded in approval at this sight.

“It seems like the Azure has been developing swiftly…”

“Over the past ten years, we have had thirty cultivators reaching the Semi-Divinity realm and over two hundred cultivators reaching the High Immortal realm. As for the other realms, their numbers are even higher,” Du Qingyuan replied with a smile.

It had only been slightly more than a month in the Firmament, but ten years had pa.s.sed for the Azure.

Ten years was usually insignificant in comparison to the long lifespan that cultivators enjoyed, but due to Zhang Xuan defeating Kong s.h.i.+’s clone, the resources that had been h.o.a.rded by the Ethereal Hall were reorganized and distributed among the Six Sects. On top of that, the Hall of G.o.ds was no longer guarded by any powers.

As such, the number of Semi-Divinities and High Immortals increased swiftly within this period of time.

The absolute number of experts that had appeared over the past decade was more than the number of experts that the Azure had produced for the four thousand years prior.

Nodding in response, Zhang Xuan extended his Spiritual Perception toward Starchaser Palace, and a moment later, he widened his eyes in astonishment. “Is that Yu Fei-er and Hu Yaoyao?”

A pair of familiar figures appeared within his perception, and they were none other than Yu Fei-er and Hu Yaoyao from the Master Teacher Continent.
