Chapter 463: The Constantly Growing Xuanhuang World, Dream World: The Human Race

~37 min read 7,256 words

"Could it be that the Xuanhuang Sect Master can manipulate the power of the Evergreen Immortal Vine?"

Gu Zhangsheng was very shocked and could not help but swallow a mouthful of saliva.

He looked up at the sky in the distance; that towering, cloud-piercing, vast plant was incredibly shocking no matter how many times he looked at it, simply beyond imagination.

It was impossible to imagine just how terrifying it would be if such a plant were to fully unleash its power.

Perhaps that would be truly Tongtian—reaching the heavens and spanning the earth.

Even the former Yuhua Sect Master would not possess such might.

"Although there is no evidence, that Xuanhuang Sect Master must be able to do this."

"Otherwise, how could the Xuanhuang Sect have become the hegemon of this world?"

The Immortal Artifact Earth Mother Cauldron said as a matter of course.

"Indeed."

Gu Zhangsheng also could not help but agree with this point, and he continued to check the series of news items on the Virtual Panel.

"XX City in Jizhou Dalu has encountered a Demon Disaster; a large number of underground demons have broken out. The local sect suffered heavy losses and is requesting rescue from the main sect. Residents nearby are advised to be careful and not go out casually recently."

"The Spirit Severing demonic cultivator Bloodthirsty Daoist has been severely wounded and fled into the Underground Demon Cave. Currently, his whereabouts are unknown. Anyone with information is encouraged to report it in time to receive a heavy reward from the Xuanhuang Sect."

"The Barbarian Bull Tribe in Youzhou Continent has initiated a strike, demanding wages to be doubled, working three hours a day, and resting three days a week. Currently, many factories in Youzhou are temporarily in a state of paralysis."

"A serious case of fake Pill production recently appeared in Yangzhou Dalu. XX Daoist used inferior Spirit Medicine to refine counterfeit and shoddy Pills, passing off the inferior as superior, causing many Cultivators to suffer losses and damage their foundations. Fellow Daoists are advised to recognize Pill brands and not purchase Pills from small workshops at will to avoid being deceived."

"Red Fox Fairy of the Hehuan Sect has evaded taxes amounting to 1.2 million High-grade Spirit Stones. She has now been apprehended by the main sect and will serve a ten-year sentence, along with a triple fine. Fellow Daoists are hoped to take this as a warning: do not evade taxes, operate legally, and pay taxes legally."

Suddenly, the news above was all-encompassing, all describing things happening all over the world.

It was also the first time he had seen such a scene.

Before, when he stayed at the Yuhua Sect, he only knew some news from the vicinity, and at most, he knew about some matters concerning Outer Disciples; how could he know the affairs of the world so easily?

Seeing these news items, he felt that the whole world seemed to have turned into a village, simply close at hand.

Regarding these news items, Cultivators from all over the world were also discussing them animatedly.

"Damn it, the demons in the Underground Demon Cave have become more and more rampant recently, running out of the cave at every turn."

"There's no help for it; who let the number of demonic cultivators increase recently? They cooperate with the demons, working from the inside and outside, and who knows how many things they've stirred up. No matter how we exterminate them, they can't be wiped out completely."

"It is said that the Xuanhuang Sect has already formulated a series of plans, intending to cleanse the Underground Demon Cave. It is estimated that by then, this group of demons won't be so arrogant and domineering."

"Those demons don't count as any threat; they are just rats crossing the street. Once the Xuanhuang Sect takes them seriously, they will be wiped out at any time. I think the most hateful ones are those Demon Race Cultivators; they go on strike at every turn, and many city transport systems have been paralyzed by them. They are simply insatiable."

"You can't say that; those factory owners are the ones who are truly insatiable. Even though they have earned so many Spirit Stones, they are still constantly squeezing the workers. There is no overtime pay for working overtime, and they work seven or eight hours every day. Striking is just a means to pursue their own rights."

"The problem is that the number of strikes is really too high, affecting the normal operation of the city."

Numerous Cultivators replied one after another under the news, expressing their own opinions.

For Gu Zhangsheng, however, he felt very amazed.

After all, it was the first time he had seen so many people talking and chatting; he was afraid that he had never seen so many people in his life. It was as if everyone in the world was on it; it was truly inconceivable.

Of course, from these news items, he also observed a lot of intelligence about the Xuanhuang World and felt that he had benefited a lot.

Undoubtedly, this was a world completely different from the Earth Immortal World.

…………

After another few months passed, Gu Zhangsheng, through the power of the Dream World, finally became familiar with the various affairs of the Xuanhuang World, and at the same time, he also came into contact with Cultivators from all over the world in the Dream World.

This also made him understand the Xuanhuang World even better.

Although he could not compare to the local Cultivators of the Xuanhuang World, he was at least not completely in the dark.

"Lord Earth Mother Cauldron, perhaps our identities have long been exposed."

Gu Zhangsheng said in a deep voice.

"Oh, how do you know?"

The Immortal Artifact Earth Mother Cauldron asked.

"It's very simple; this world is simply too rigorous."

"As long as one enters the Xuanhuang World, one will inevitably be sensed by the Evergreen Immortal Vine."

"So, the moment we entered the Xuanhuang World, we were detected."

"For the Evergreen Immortal Vine, there are no secrets in this world."

"Coupled with the existence of the Dream World, our identities have nowhere to hide."

Gu Zhangsheng said.

"If that is the case, why has no one from the Xuanhuang Sect come to find us?"

The Immortal Artifact Earth Mother Cauldron asked curiously.

"This is because, for the people of the Xuanhuang World, beings from other worlds are simply not worth mentioning; it is already very common."

"The entire Xuanhuang World merges with one world after another from time to time, thereby causing the Xuanhuang World to continuously develop and grow."

"Existences like us are simply countless in the Xuanhuang World."

"So, in this way, our existence is naturally very insignificant and will not be taken to heart by the Evergreen Immortal Vine."

Gu Zhangsheng took a deep breath and suddenly felt much more at ease.

Originally, he was still worried that he would be detected by the Cultivators of the Xuanhuang Sect and then hunted down by them.

But now it seems that things are not as serious as he imagined.

On the whole, the Xuanhuang Sect is still very tolerant of Cultivators from other worlds.

As long as they do not commit crimes in the Xuanhuang World, the Xuanhuang Sect can still tolerate them.

They will not do anything to Cultivators from other worlds.

"No wonder the Xuanhuang World was able to ascend from a Middle Thousand World to a Great Thousand World."

"The Evergreen Immortal Vine actually has the ability to capture worlds from the Endless Void and merge them into the world."

"In this way, I fear this world is still constantly growing."

"Even if it grows to be comparable to the Earth Immortal World in the future, it is not necessarily impossible."

The Immortal Artifact Earth Mother Cauldron exclaimed in wonder.

No wonder it sensed that the Source Energy of the Xuanhuang World was constantly increasing.

Normally, the growth speed of a Great Thousand World is extremely slow, even calculated in hundreds of millions of years.

Who could have imagined that the changes in the Xuanhuang World are actually calculated in centuries.

Every once in a while, the Xuanhuang World undergoes earth-shaking changes; it is truly inconceivable.

It is precisely because of this that the Cultivators staying in the Xuanhuang World also progress rapidly; it is simply an unprecedented opportunity.

"That's right, so this world is very suitable for my development."

"Unlike the Earth Immortal World, the Xuanhuang World is very safe."

"The entire world has been unified by the Xuanhuang Sect, and the Human Race is the absolute hegemon."

"Although there are still some Alien creatures and underground demons, they pose no threat to the Human Race."

"Overall, it is still relatively peaceful, and there won't be any wars."

"Moreover, the rules of the Xuanhuang World are strict; as long as one does not do anything out of line, one will not be targeted by the Xuanhuang Sect."

Gu Zhangsheng took a deep breath.

After staying in the Xuanhuang World for several months, he was immediately very satisfied with this world.

Compared to the Earth Immortal World, the Xuanhuang World is simply too safe; it has reached the level where people do not pocket items left on the road and do not lock their doors at night.

Although one cannot say that the crime rate is completely eradicated, at least it will not reach the level where Cultivators kill others at will.

If any murder case occurs, it will be pursued immediately.

This also leads to the fact that cultivation within cities is relatively safe.

The only danger is in the wilderness.

After all, in the wilderness, there are no human witnesses or material evidence, and even if one dies, no one will know.

In this way, it will naturally incite the greatest ferocity in people, and incidents like killing to seize treasures are very normal.

However, overall, it is still relatively safe and very suitable for him to develop steadily.

"If that's the case, then what do you plan to do?"

"Do you want to join the Xuanhuang Sect?"

The Immortal Artifact Earth Mother Cauldron asked.

"No, I don't intend to join the Xuanhuang Sect."

"First of all, I don't lack techniques. With the inheritance from Lord Earth Mother Cauldron, I estimate the Xuanhuang Sect's inheritance is nothing more than that; there is simply no need to join the Xuanhuang Sect to obtain it."

"Secondly, I have Lord Earth Mother Cauldron on me, and there are many secrets. If I join the Xuanhuang Sect, it's hard to say whether an accident like the last one will occur."

"Even if the Xuanhuang Sect's reputation is quite good, it is impossible for me to continue taking risks now."

"So it is better to fight alone, become a Loose Cultivator, and cultivate slowly."

Gu Zhangsheng stated the reason why he did not want to join the Xuanhuang Sect.

Although it is good to enjoy the shade under a big tree, if he joined a hegemonic sect like the Xuanhuang Sect, he would naturally obtain endless benefits, but he has too many secrets on him now, so he naturally does not want to expose them.

He no longer wants to experience the powerlessness he felt at the Yuhua Sect again.

"But there is a problem you haven't thought about: the technique you possess is the Earth Mother Technique."

"This technique can allow you to cultivate to the True Immortal Realm; it belongs to the True Immortal-level techniques."

"The problem is, if you want to cultivate this technique, you need to sort out the Spirit Veins of the earth and absorb the Earth Mother Qi from the depths of the earth."

"That is to say, you need a stable territory to be able to cultivate this technique."

"If you don't have a major power backing you, how will you find a suitable Spirit Vein?"

The Immortal Artifact Earth Mother Cauldron inquired.

Although the Earth Mother Technique, this True Immortal-level technique, is indeed infinitely profound and progresses rapidly, it requires a Spirit Vein for assistance; without the assistance of a Spirit Vein, this technique is basically impossible to cultivate.

"This point is not a problem."

"Why I say the Xuanhuang World is simply the best place for me to cultivate."

"It is because this world is constantly expanding, and the land area and ocean area are also constantly increasing."

"Even if the Xuanhuang Sect is the absolute hegemonic sect, it is impossible for it to rule every corner of this world."

"Even if it wanted to rule, it wouldn't have enough manpower."

"So the Xuanhuang Sect also relies on a large number of affiliated sects and affiliated families to govern various parts of the world."

"Any Cultivator can apply to the Xuanhuang Sect to develop the wilderness, occupy Spirit Veins, open up new cities, establish families, or even establish sects."

Gu Zhangsheng said very excitedly, unable to help but clench his fists.

He felt that the Xuanhuang Sect was simply his paradise, incomparably suitable for his growth.

This world is not only safe, but its resources are also incomparably abundant.

It is simply equivalent to the initial stage of a Great Thousand World, a barbaric stage.

All kinds of Spirit Veins and land have not been occupied by other forces; everything is possible.

"Can anyone actually establish a sect or a family?"

"Is the Xuanhuang Sect not afraid that other families and sects will grow strong and thereby threaten the status of the Xuanhuang Sect?"

The Immortal Artifact Earth Mother Cauldron was astonished.

It did not expect that the Xuanhuang Sect would be so generous, opening up one region after another; it is simply enfeoffing various feudal lords.

But if the various feudal lords grow strong, I fear it will threaten the main sect.

And if the distances are too far, the Xuanhuang Sect's reach would be limited, and it would be unable to handle it at all.

After all, there is a saying that the mountains are high and the emperor is far away.

"Of course I'm not afraid; the tyranny of the Xuanhuang Sect is likely beyond imagination."

"And the means by which the Xuanhuang Sect controls various great families and affiliated sects is the Dream World."

"I finally understand why the Xuanhuang Sect wants to open up the Dream World, promote the Dream World, and let everyone log into the Dream World."

"The emergence of the Dream World allows people from all over the world to communicate with each other."

"Even if one is at the ends of the earth, one can instantly exchange information and communicate with others."

"If a problem arises somewhere, others can also log into the Dream World at the first opportunity to pass the information to the Xuanhuang Sect; in this way, I fear that before any signs of rebellion even appear, they are already wiped out by the Xuanhuang Sect."

"Moreover, the Xuanhuang Sect's management of various great families and affiliated sects is very strict, requiring the payment of high taxes; if anyone dares not to pay taxes, they will likely face the thunderous strike of the Xuanhuang Sect, so no one dares not to pay."

"In this way, the more the various great families and sects develop and grow, the wealthier the Xuanhuang Sect becomes."

Gu Zhangsheng was very moved.

He felt that by relying on such means, the Xuanhuang Sect easily harvests various great families and sects.

These sects even flock to it.

After all, without the permission and protection of the Xuanhuang Sect, they would likely be unable to occupy these Spirit Veins.

And as for the Xuanhuang Sect, it can also use the power of various great families and sects to rapidly develop and grow, forever occupying a high and lofty position, becoming the eternal hegemon of the Xuanhuang World.

"The power of the Dream World?"

"If one uses the Dream Realm Power to transmit messages instantly, then those forces located in remote places would not dare to do anything against the Xuanhuang Sect."

"The reason why things like 'the mountains are high and the emperor is far away' happened in the past was simply because of the excessive distance and the inconvenience of message transmission; even if something major happened in a remote place, it would take months or even years to reach the imperial court."

"But it is different now; everyone can log into the Dream World, and wanting to completely cover up this news is undoubtedly a pipe dream; that is simply impossible."

"Once a place wants to rebel, the Xuanhuang Sect can immediately send troops to suppress it and arrest the forces harboring evil intentions."

"The Dream World is like an invisible, massive net covering the entire Xuanhuang World."

The Immortal Artifact Earth Mother Cauldron instantly understood the formidable nature of the Dream World.

On the surface, the Dream World seems to have no lethality, but it is like a net of Heavenly Dao hanging over everyone's heads, leaving no one with anywhere to hide.

"That's right, because of the power of the Dream World, the Xuanhuang Sect's control over this world is incomparably tight."

"Anyone who wants to escape the control of the Xuanhuang Sect is dreaming; that is something that is simply impossible to achieve."

Gu Zhangsheng felt very shocked inside.

Clearly, compared to the Xuanhuang Sect, the Yuhua Sect of the past was simply incomparable.

At least in terms of the degree of control, the Xuanhuang Sect is truly many times more powerful.

If one offended the Yuhua Sect, there might still be a chance to survive by hiding in the deep mountains and wild forests.

But in the Xuanhuang World, offending the Xuanhuang Sect means certain death.

Even if one hides at the ends of the earth, it is still a dead end, impossible to resist.

Fortunately, the Xuanhuang Sect is not some demonic sect, but a righteous sect.

For ordinary people in the Xuanhuang World, such a righteous sect actually brings more benefits than harm.

As for whether it will degenerate in the future, it is hard to say.

But at least for now, the Xuanhuang Sect is still quite good.

"If that is the case, can't one just not join the Dream World?"

The Immortal Artifact Earth Mother Cauldron asked, very puzzled.

It felt that if the Dream World were a shackle on every Human Cultivator, then by not wearing this shackle, there would be no problem at all, and the Xuanhuang Sect would be unable to bind them.

"That is basically impossible."

"Once you have experienced the convenience of the Dream World, you can never get rid of it again."

"Besides the Dream World, Humans have no other means to transmit messages instantly."

"And this is also the trend of the times."

"Even if you personally do not use the Dream World, others will use it; do you think you alone can resist the trend of the times?"

"In fact, as long as you do not oppose the Xuanhuang Sect, there will be no problems."

Gu Zhangsheng felt that basically no one could escape the Dream World.

After trying it for several months, he discovered that the Dream World was simply too convenient.

Even without stepping out of the house, one can know what is happening in the world and communicate with people in every corner of the world.

Not to mention, the power of the Dream World is not just that; it can also assist Human Cultivators in their cultivation.

It can be said to have infinite wonderful uses, equivalent to a Dharma Treasure that is a super cultivation aid.

Therefore, basically no one can get rid of the convenience of the Dream World.

And as long as one does not oppose the Xuanhuang Sect, the existence of the Dream World will not be any problem.

It is said that those demonic Cultivators wanted by the Xuanhuang Sect also secretly use the Dream World, logging into the Dream World to obtain intelligence from all over the world.

"In that case, the Xuanhuang Sect's methods are truly incomparably brilliant."

"By using the power of the Dream World to form a massive net, it monitors the entire world, covering every corner of the world."

"The various great families and major forces are also willingly controlled by the Xuanhuang Sect."

"The Xuanhuang Sect eats the meat, and other forces can also drink some soup."

"Once those forces finish reclaiming the wilderness of the Xuanhuang World, the Xuanhuang Sect can also continuously obtain profits."

"It is simply killing many birds with one stone."

The Immortal Artifact Earth Mother Cauldron was completely convinced by the Xuanhuang Sect; such methods are simply turning one's hands to summon clouds and rain.

And the methods of the many forces in the Earth Immortal World appear a bit simpler and more brutal.

As for the Xuanhuang Sect, although it is also very domineering, at least it leaves a mouthful of food for other forces.

Therefore, many factions still flock to it, willing to add bricks and tiles to the Xuanhuang Sect.

"There is no help for it; who let the Xuanhuang Sect be the true hegemon of this world."

"Having mastered invincible power, no one can compare to it."

"To a certain extent, the Xuanhuang Sect is actually the imperial dynasty of the mortal world, or perhaps the government."

"So, naturally, it can control everything in this world and set the rules and order of this world."

"For those who cannot contend, they can only abide by the order and rules set by the Xuanhuang Sect."

Gu Zhangsheng said in a deep voice.

He actually did not have much resistance to this point.

Because in the Earth Immortal World, it is actually the same; the Human Race also has many sect factions.

These sects also divide the major territories of the Human Race.

The territories they rule must also abide by the rules set by the major sects.

If anyone dares to violate such rules, then that person is on a dead end, unable to resist.

"But if that is the case, wouldn't the sect you develop always be under the control of the Xuanhuang Sect?"

The Immortal Artifact Earth Mother Cauldron said.

"What is there to fear? The reason I want to open a sect is merely to establish a force and obtain resources."

"It is not that I truly want to establish some eternal sect."

"My goal has never changed from beginning to end, and that is to attain the Dao, become an immortal, and ascend to the Immortal World."

"As long as I can ascend to the Immortal World, then what does a mere sect count for? It doesn't matter if it is given to the Xuanhuang Sect."

Gu Zhangsheng couldn't be bothered to care about who is a hegemon or not; he just wanted to attain the Dao and longevity, and he was not looking to go against the Xuanhuang Sect.

Fundamentally speaking, he has no conflict with the Xuanhuang Sect.

He just wants to obtain a large amount of cultivation resources from the Xuanhuang World.

Even if a portion is taken by the Xuanhuang Sect, it does not matter; it is equivalent to paying protection money.

"Not bad, not bad. It is best if you can think this way."

"Being a king or hegemon in the mortal world is actually meaningless."

"The Immortal World is the true main battlefield for the myriad races of the heavens; only by dominating the Immortal World can one be a true hegemon race."

"If possible, naturally one should cultivate as quickly as possible and ascend to the Immortal World."

"Staying in the mortal world, sooner or later one will exhaust their Longevity and die."

The Immortal Artifact Earth Mother Cauldron looked at Gu Zhangsheng with great satisfaction.

It was also afraid that Gu Zhangsheng would value sect interests too much and thus fall into struggles, which would delay his own cultivation and perhaps make it impossible to attain the Dao and become an immortal in the future.

For a Cultivator, so-called wealth, sects, and families are all external objects; only the Dao is eternal.

If one values power too much, then it is impossible to cultivate to the supreme realm and attain the Dao and longevity.

But fortunately, Gu Zhangsheng could perceive this point, and it was not in vain for its guidance.

"Since that is the case, when do you intend to apply to the Xuanhuang Sect to open a sect?"

The Immortal Artifact Earth Mother Cauldron asked.

"No rush. Right now, my cultivation is truly too weak, merely at the Foundation Establishment Realm."

"After my cultivation advances to the Golden Core Realm, I will then apply to the Xuanhuang Sect; that way, I can open a Golden Core sect."

"By then, I can at least occupy a Spirit Vein above the Third-tier."

"Moreover, the resources of the Xuanhuang World are abundant; even as a Loose Cultivator, there is a great chance to advance to Golden Core, so there is no need to worry about anything."

Gu Zhangsheng also stated his plan for the future.

"Hmm, if you cultivate the Earth Mother Technique at the Golden Core Realm, that is also no problem at all."

"For now, you should still improve your cultivation as quickly as possible and then establish a foothold in this world."

The Immortal Artifact Earth Mother Cauldron was also very satisfied, feeling that this was indeed a relatively mature thought and plan.

Regarding cultivation, the most important thing is steadiness, not seeking speed.

"Mm-hmm."

Gu Zhangsheng was very expectant, and at the same time, he secretly swore that if he achieved success in his cultivation in the future, he would sooner or later return to the Earth Immortal World to take revenge and make that enemy pay a heavy price.

…………

At the same time, True Spirit World, Canglong Continent.

Because the Wine Daoist's cultivation had finally improved to the Spirit Severing, in order to obtain a large amount of resources, Song Ping'an and the Wine Daoist finally arrived in the Spirit World through the Star Fixing Plate.

And the location the Wine Daoist had left behind previously was precisely within the Human Territory of the Canglong Continent.

"Master, has the Human Race of the Spirit World perished?"

"What exactly is going on here?"

Song Ping'an was stunned.

Originally, after arriving in the Spirit World, he wanted to find a city of the Human Race and then obtain a large amount of resources within the human city.

But who could have imagined that the Human Race had long been destroyed by the joint efforts of various races hundreds of years ago.

Not only were the one hundred and eight cities destroyed, but even the Human Imperial City was wiped out.

Basically, on this continent, one rarely hears news about the Human Race.

He and the Wine Daoist inquired everywhere for news, only to discover that the Human Race had disappeared for hundreds of years.

For other races, such things had long since become commonplace.

Apart from the True Spirit Race, which race does not disappear at any time in the Spirit World?

"It cannot be said that they were destroyed."

"Although the cities of the Human Race have all been destroyed, some Human Cultivators have still managed to survive."

"It is just that they are now scattered everywhere."

Wine Daoist also fell silent, not knowing what else to say.

No matter how he imagined it, he could not conceive that in just one or two thousand years, the Human Race in the Spirit World would reach the brink of extinction, with only a handful of survivors left.

Even the Human Imperial City had been destroyed.

From this point on, the Human Race in the Spirit World would likely be a species on the verge of extinction.

"Master, how is this any different from being extinct?"

"Even if some humans have survived, they are nothing more than small tribes."

"They don't even have a single city."

Song Ping'an had never seen such a scene either; after all, in the Xuanhuang World, the Human Race was the absolute hegemon, occupying the entire world and proving invincible.

But upon arriving in the Spirit World, the situation of the Human Race was so miserable.

Not only could they only occupy remote areas, but now they didn't even have a foothold; even their most important base had been destroyed. The Spirit World was so vast, yet there was simply no place for the Human Race to stand.

Previously, he had only heard stories about the miserable state of the Human Race in the Spirit World from his master, Wine Daoist, but now it was truly and vividly presented before his eyes.

Compared to this, the Human Race of the Xuanhuang World was indeed incredibly fortunate; at least they were not hunted by various races, lacking a place to stand, or even unable to guarantee their own survival.

"Sigh, who could have imagined that such a thing would happen."

"Originally, the Human Race had been developing steadily in the Xuanhuang World for hundreds of millions of years."

"But because those high-level humans were greedy and seized an Immortal Artifact, they encountered a catastrophic disaster."

"Coupled with the invasion of the Prison Demon World, it led to the downfall of the Human Race."

Wine Daoist said helplessly.

He had also thoroughly investigated the cause of the Human Race's downfall; the reason was precisely that the high-level humans had obtained an Immortal Artifact from an Immortal Mansion, which provoked a siege by the major races.

If it had only been that, it might have been fine; relying on the defenses of the Human Imperial City, it would have been more than enough.

Who could have imagined that at this time, the Prison Demon World would invade the Spirit World, pouring in a massive number of Heavenly Demons and Prison Race cultivators.

As a result, these Great Vehicle Cultivators from the Prison Demon World took action personally and destroyed the Human Imperial City.

Facing this extraordinary power, the Human Race was simply unable to resist.

In the end, only a portion of humans were able to escape from the Imperial City.

To this day, the Human Race no longer has any Imperial City, merely hiding in deep mountains and wild forests, struggling to survive.

Even now, those races are still hunting the remaining human cultivators, determined to exterminate the remaining humans completely, leaving no one behind.

"Huh, that's not right. Why does it seem like the Dream World can still be used after arriving in the Spirit World?"

Suddenly, Song Ping'an immediately discovered something unusual; he sensed that the Dream World Mark on the back of his hand had become scorching hot, as if he could use the Dream World in the Spirit World.

"That's right, isn't the Dream World a power unique to the Xuanhuang World?"

"Why can it be used in the Spirit World?"

Wine Daoist also noticed this point and was immediately astonished. He found it hard to believe and could not understand why the power of the Dream World could actually be used in the Spirit World; it was truly inconceivable.

"Master, didn't you have a guess before?"

"You felt that the Sect Master might have traveled to the Spirit World before."

"In other words, perhaps the Sect Master also laid out the power of the Dream World in the Spirit World."

"That is why, even in the Spirit World, we can use the Dream Realm Power to facilitate communication between us."

Song Ping'an's eyes flickered as he immediately recalled the various events that had occurred previously.

Perhaps the Xuanhuang Sect Master had long had an unusual connection with the Spirit World.

After all, a large number of secret manuals from the Human Race of the Spirit World had appeared in the Xuanhuang Sect's library.

Of course, to this day, there are more and more secret manuals in the library.

Even Wine Daoist had never seen such secret manuals before.

The Human Race of the Spirit World in the past had not collected them either.

In other words, as the Xuanhuang Sect Master's strength continues to improve, he is likely able to obtain even more secret manuals.

This also made it even more unclear to them where the Sect Master's channel for obtaining these secret manuals was.

"Did the Sect Master leave behind the power of the Dream World in the Spirit World?"

"It seems this possibility is very high."

"Perhaps the Sect Master has also mastered a power similar to the Star Fixing Plate, allowing him to travel between the two worlds."

Wine Daoist was very excited inside. Previously, they had only been guessing, but they had no real evidence to prove it. Now, the appearance of the Dream World had completely proven that his guess was correct.

The Sect Master must have appeared in the Spirit World and left behind his own power.

In fact, over these past few hundred years, the power of the Dream Soul Gu has been constantly expanding in the Spirit World. By now, the power of the Dream World is no longer just covering the Shattered Star Sea, but has enveloped the entire Spirit World.

It is precisely because of this that Song Ping'an and Wine Daoist could log into the Dream World within the Canglong Continent, sensing the existence of the Dream World and the power of the Dream World.

"If the Sect Master can travel to the Spirit World, why not help the Human Race overcome this crisis?"

Song Ping'an asked, feeling very puzzled.

He felt that if the Sect Master were to take action, then resolving the crisis of the Human Race's extinction would not be an impossible task.

"You shouldn't mythologize the Sect Master too much."

"Although the Sect Master is a heaven-sent talent and indeed an unworldly prodigy,"

"his cultivation time is still too short."

"Up until now, he is only at the Combined Body Late Stage."

"Of course, compared to us, he is naturally countless times stronger."

"The problem is that compared to those Great Vehicle Cultivators who have practiced for over a hundred thousand years, he is still far behind."

"Even if the Sect Master wanted to save the Human Race, I fear he would be powerless to do so."

Wine Daoist said in a deep voice; he felt it was normal for the Sect Master to be helpless, as after all, the time he had spent cultivating was still too short, amounting to only a little over two thousand years to this day.

"Regardless, we should still log into the Dream World and take a look."

"I want to know how the Dream World in the Spirit World is different from the one in the Xuanhuang World."

"Perhaps there is a message left behind by the Sect Master inside."

Song Ping'an said in a deep voice.

He was becoming increasingly curious about the Dream World of the Spirit World, wondering how it differed from the Xuanhuang World.

"Good."

Hearing this, Wine Daoist could not help but nod; in truth, he was also extremely curious.

Not long after, the two of them immediately logged into the Dream World.

Then, they discovered they had arrived in a city, where they found a large number of Human Cultivators.

Clearly, these Human Cultivators had all logged into the Dream World from different locations.

"How can there be so many people?"

"Could it be that the Human Cultivators have not been exterminated?"

Seeing this scene, Song Ping'an and Wine Daoist looked at each other, feeling incomparably excited.

Without a word, they immediately stepped forward to strike up a conversation, wanting to know what had happened.

Several days later.

Song Ping'an and Wine Daoist finally understood the situation of the Human Race in the Spirit World.

"The Human Race truly has not been exterminated in the Spirit World."

"Before the catastrophe occurred, many Human cities were fractured, and one branch of the Human Race migrated to the Shattered Star Sea."

"Moreover, they developed and thrived in the Shattered Star Sea, becoming even more formidable than the former Human Imperial City."

"It is truly incredible; what kind of place is the Shattered Star Sea? It is rumored that True Spirit Race beings are everywhere."

"Back in the heyday of the Human Race, they did not even dare to enter it."

"Now, they have actually survived a desperate situation and truly blossomed with new life."

"They even built the Qianmiao Secret Realm in the Shattered Star Sea, and many Humans reside within that Secret Realm World."

Wine Daoist took a deep breath.

After hearing this news, he was also filled with wonder, never having imagined that the Human Race had made such preparations.

The former high-level leadership of the Human Race knew that obtaining an Immortal Artifact would inevitably bring about a great disaster.

Therefore, they had made two-fold preparations in advance, dispersing a portion of the Humans to various parts of the Spirit World beforehand.

If the Human Imperial City could hold out, then the Human Race could naturally develop and grow in the future, and the dispersed Humans could return; if it could not hold out, these Humans who had left could serve as the embers of the Human Race, continuing to pass on the torch of the Human Race—it could be said that the high-level leadership of the Human Race had calculated everything.

Of course, the former high-level leadership of the Human Race had also never expected this.

After one branch of Humans arrived in the Shattered Star Sea, not only did they not perish or die there, but they actually developed and grew, occupying a place in the Shattered Star Sea.

Even their population had increased geometrically, which was truly beyond imagination.

However, this news also made him heave a sigh of relief; at the very least, the Human Race had not truly been exterminated in the Spirit World.

Otherwise, he would not even be able to imagine what his state of mind would be right now.

"It is all the credit of the Sect Master."

"The Qianmiao Secret Realm where the Human Race resides now was created by the Sect Master."

"This means that the Sect Master is already an Eighth-Rank Array Master, and his cultivation in Array Formations is simply unfathomable."

"No wonder the Sect Master's cultivation progress is so fast; was it because he obtained so many opportunities and benefits in the Spirit World?"

Song Ping'an said with great excitement.

Without a doubt, according to what those Human Cultivators said, the leader of the Qianmiao Secret Realm was Zhou Sui.

And Zhou Sui was the Xuanhuang Sect Master, also known as Xuanhuang Daoist.

Although people with the same name do indeed exist in this world.

But the existence of the Dream World cannot be faked.

After all, for a power like an Immortal Artifact, it is impossible for the same Immortal Artifact to exist in the Spirit World.

Therefore, the Zhou Sui of the Spirit World must be the Xuanhuang Sect Master.

Before, they were only guessing, but now they had solid evidence.

It is no wonder the Sect Master's cultivation progressed with such speed; it turns out he had obtained a massive amount of opportunities in the Spirit World.

He had even become the leader of the Human Race in the Spirit World, hailed as the future Human Emperor.

"The Sect Master is indeed a monster."

"Although I already knew before that the Sect Master was simply peerless."

"Even after coming to the Spirit World, he is still an incredible big shot."

"But who could have imagined that he would be formidable to this extent?"

"Only a little over a thousand years have passed, and not only has his cultivation reached the late stage of the Integration Realm."

"But he has also become the leader of the Human Race."

"Once he ascends to the Great Vehicle, he will be the Human Emperor of the Spirit World."

Wine Daoist's mouth twitched, and he did not know what to say.

Even though he knew Zhou Sui was indeed an incredible big shot, he had not expected the other party's growth speed to be this fast; in the blink of an eye, he had become the leader of the Human Race in the Spirit World.

Furthermore, if it were not for Zhou Sui taking action, I fear the Human Race in the Spirit World would have been exterminated long ago.

They would not be developing and flourishing as they are now.

And it looks like it will surpass any previous era.

To him, Zhou Sui was merely a young junior.

If one were to talk about age, he was equivalent to who knows how many generations of his descendants.

Yet now, in the blink of an eye, he had become the leader of the Human Race; few would believe it if they were told.

"Isn't this a matter of course?"

"What kind of person is Sect Master?"

"Back in the Xuanhuang World, he single-handedly annihilated the Ancient Demon World and the Ancient Devil World, unifying the three realms."

"He ended the million-year-long strife of the three realms and even caused the Xuanhuang World to ascend into a Great Thousand World."

"Such great achievements are already legendary."

"For such a figure to come to the Spirit World and not accomplish something would be the real nonsense."

Song Ping'an said as if it were a matter of course.

He had never stayed in the Spirit World, so naturally, he did not have the same filter for the Spirit World as Wine Daoist.

On the contrary, he felt this was actually too normal.

Even if it is the Spirit World, so what? The reason the Spirit World produces so many experts and geniuses is simply because of its abundant resources and long history of development; if the Xuanhuang World had developed for the same amount of time, it would absolutely not be inferior to the Spirit World.

It would not even be a big problem if it were even more powerful than the Spirit World.

"If you put it that way, it is indeed nothing special."

Wine Daoist said helplessly.

He had also witnessed countless miraculous things done by Zhou Sui and had long since become accustomed to them.

He even felt that if Zhou Sui had ascended to the Spirit World earlier, perhaps the Human Race would not have encountered such a great disaster.

But it is too late to say anything now.

"Moreover, Sect Master's luck with women is also extremely good."

"He actually took four or five confidantes as wives in the Spirit World."

"There is even a Great Vehicle Female Cultivator."

"Sect Master's charm is simply beyond imagination."

Song Ping'an clicked his tongue in admiration; he was also amazed to hear the gossip about his own Sect Master.

Originally, there were already over a dozen Dao companions in the Xuanhuang Sect, but after coming to the Spirit World, he actually kept more beauties hidden away.

One wonders what attitude those Dao companions in the Xuanhuang Sect would have if they knew about this.

They wouldn't start fighting, would they?

Perhaps that is why Sect Master has been delaying the construction of the Teleportation Array between the Spirit World and the Xuanhuang World.

After all, a fire in the harem is a truly terrible matter.
