equivalent to being fully exposed to outer space.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In 2890, the Lunar Realm appeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As a rare wonder-realm, it selected over a hundred aspirants.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhiyue Zhenjun spent several years rising above these aspirants and ultimately became the master of the Lunar Realm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that time, Earth faced internal strife and external threats, with order in chaos.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Star Ring had just been rebuilt, and there were only a handful of Spirit Platform cultivators.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After acquiring the Lunar Realm, Zhiyue Zhenjun did not choose to monopolize it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instead, after glimpsing the Spirit Platform, he voluntarily lowered the Lunar Realm, fusing it with the Moon to greatly strengthen the defense of the Four Realms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since then,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>the Moon and the Lunar Realm became one, transforming into today’s “Lunar Realm.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It now possesses an atmosphere, allowing Earth dwellers to live on it normally.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Within the Lunar Realm’s barrier, its gravity has increased significantly, matching that of the Star Ring Realm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No one knows Zhiyue Zhenjun’s original name.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After ascending to the Spirit Platform, all people respectfully addressed him by his title.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His other official title, “Lunar Realm Zhenjun,” was personally bestowed by the Earth Alliance, a unique honor reserved for the Four Realms’ Zhenjuns.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Wonder-realms are not exclusive to Earth.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Jian, after watching the footage, grew slightly solemn.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When the Lunar Realm descended, the Moon underwent drastic changes, with all metrics significantly enhanced.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In contrast,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>whether the Mars Star Ring or the Jupiter Divine Platform, both differ drastically from normal planets.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clearly,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>the immense strength of these two planets is closely tied to the continuous integration of wonder-realms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On Earth,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>the only wonder-realm fused into a planet is the Lunar Realm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Lunar Realm barrier exists along the Moon’s orbit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It is the sole defense of the Four Realms, apart from the planets’ natural barriers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The Wall-Gazing Hall holds so many secrets.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he pondered,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Jian lifted his head and continued watching the footage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Each segment of footage was extremely clear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Every person or object within was rendered in exquisite detail, immersing viewers as if they were truly present.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Living beings here, within a short time, received myriad pieces of information, as if experiencing different lives.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As a Spirit Palace cultivator,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>one has the qualification to preliminarily learn the secrets of Earth and the Moon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Earth-Moon Academy established the Wall-Gazing Hall to help students, while enhancing their spiritual cultivation,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>gain a clearer and more accurate understanding of Earth and the Moon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While wall-gazing,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Jian held the Autumn Water Spirit Essence and trained day and night, wasting no time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unconsciously,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>another dozen days passed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His Spring Well Spirit Essence steadily improved.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was drawing closer to the limit of his acupoint capacity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I need a detection device.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beneath the spirit wall,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Jian paused his training, lifted his head, and his gaze sharpened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>During this period,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>although he received vast amounts of information,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>his spiritual cultivation advanced only slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the Wall-Gazing Hall, Jiang Jian focused most of his attention on his own Spirit Essence cultivation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ten units of Autumn Water Spirit Essence had been entirely consumed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under zero interference,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>his cultivation speed remained remarkably stable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Spring Well Spirit Essence manifested as brilliant golden specks, swirling visibly around, nearly filling the acupoints.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Jian felt a strong premonition:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>the Divine Illumination Wall he was about to face\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>would likely be the most difficult barrier he had ever encountered in his cultivation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The third realm: Divine Illumination Approaching Truth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All accumulated foundations would erupt in a single moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Divine Illumination Wall is a clear dividing line.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some soar upward, reaching the Nine Heavens.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Others barely climb to the Spirit Palace, exhaust their potential, and gain no further progress.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For many,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>this barrier is not overly difficult.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially at the Earth-Moon Academy,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>they have long developed extensive experience in helping students break through to the Spirit Palace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But after breaking through,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>as time passes,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>the gap between Spirit Palace cultivators can grow terrifyingly vast!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The strong, like Shen Xi,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>can suppress two realm layers alone, invincible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The weak, like Liu Yanshou of Hanjiang Prefecture,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>no matter how hard they train, their cultivation never improves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their progress is nearly stagnant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To secure core resources and survive longer,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>they must drift through officialdom, bully the weak and flatter the powerful, barely clinging to life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Wall-Gazing Hall footage did not conceal such realities—it clearly showed these fates to academy students.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To help them plan their life paths deep within their hearts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Wall-gazing concluded. Please leave the Wall-Gazing Hall.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A cold voice echoed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Jian, clad in a white lunar robe, rose and walked out of the hall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before his eyes,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>stood the Earth-Moon statue at the center of Shengshan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Above it,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>the World Vortex was immense, slowly rotating.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It stirred the heavy clouds at the edge of the sky, creating a breathtaking sight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>a voice of surprise came from nearby.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Jiang Jian, you just came out of the Wall-Gazing Hall?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing the greeting,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Jian turned his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dozens of meters away,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>three students stood together, staring at him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The one who greeted him was Wei Yang, from his same cohort.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Back on Shengshan,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>all academy students seemed to have instantly stepped out of the academy world, completing their identity transformation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Jian stood in place and nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing his reply,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wei Yang’s expression brightened with surprise as he strode forward and said, “Your cultivation speed is indeed much faster than mine!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Now I have one more person to help me!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He stopped walking and turned back, pointing to two other students, “Jiang Jian, let me introduce you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This is Su Jing, a first-year from Class 29, with a Level 6 talent.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“In less than half a year, his Surge Spring spiritual essence has already reached fullness!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Behind him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Jing regarded Jiang Jian with a haughty gaze, sizing him up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moments later.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He suddenly stiffened, fixing his eyes on Jiang Jian as if sensing something—his arrogance visibly dimmed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wei Yang then pointed to the other man and said, “This is Li Que, a third-year student.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Que stepped forward, smiling warmly, and extended his hand to Jiang Jian: “Classmate, hello.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Jian nodded and shook his hand: “Hello.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wei Yang turned his head to the two and said, “The person behind me is a second-year student.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“And also the top student of our year.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Jiang Jian.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of Chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",1086,"2026-06-20T01:21:35.424Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","55c6f2b7315ec20d0fb0382d9826bb211cf1f378a596172b833f281e3b405e05","ascending-to-divinity-chapter-249","ascending-to-divinity-chapter-247",306,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fascending-to-divinity-cover.jpg"]
