Chapter 1652: Divine Realm Situation
After almost a month of effort, Ye Liuyun's spatial power finally made great progress, but he is still a little short of reaching the Divine Realm.
Within his Space World, a massive sun hangs extraordinarily bright in the sky.
Ye Liuyun again attempts to control the sun to move along a fixed trajectory, creating an illusion of day and night.
The sun moves from east to west, sets on the horizon, then he shifts it back to the east.
Anyway, this is his Space World, and he can control anything.
For now that's all he can manage; the rest will have to wait for later.
Under Qiong Qi and Man Shu's careful handling, the fire and Ice Power within the Space World have fully reached balance, without damaging its ecological environment.
Ye Liuyun also feels that the power he can draw from the Space World has become much stronger. It may not suffice against overly powerful masters, but against ordinary Divine Realm strongmen, it should be not far off.
After all this is finished, Ye Liuyun immediately gathers everyone back to the Space World, then rushes with Qiong Qi to the next Secret Realm.
"First, let me make it clear! I only checked the aura before, I didn't go in to inspect. If there's any deviation, don't blame me!" Qiong Qi preemptively warns Ye Liuyun.
Ye Liuyun isn't too concerned: "No problem, it's an expedition. Even without yin fire, just going to see it is fine; maybe there are other gains!"
"On the way there's nothing special, tell me how the Divine Realm's levels are divided," Ye Liuyun finally finds a chance and asks about the realm divisions.
"That's simple, you should already know!" Qiong Qi directly begins explaining to Ye Liuyun.
"The Divine Realm is also divided into three stages—low, middle, high—and the levels are divided into nine layers. However, the span between each layer often requires several years, even a dozen years of cultivation to achieve."
The actual power also differs by heavens and earth! Even if one can be invincible within the same stage, few can cross realms to challenge. The gap within the same layer is also huge; sometimes without a fight, you really can't tell who is stronger!
"What about above the Divine Realm?" Ye Liuyun asks.
"Above the Divine Realm is the Transcendent! You don't need to ask me for details. I've only seen a strong one of that realm once. I only know such a great being exists," Qiong Qi replies.
Ye Liuyun no longer dwells on the question; it seems he still has a long way to reach that level.
"Are all people in the Divine Realm Divine Realm strongmen?" Ye Liuyun continues asking.
Qiong Qi, amused by Ye Liuyun, explains: "Of course not! Could a newborn child be a Divine Realm strongman? Newborns in the Divine Realm are all at the First Realm of the Yuan Dan, and still need to continue cultivating. It's just that their starting point is a bit higher than people of this world."
However, the Divine Realm has abundant spiritual energy; even if they don't cultivate, just by breathing and sleeping, their realm can improve, though the progress is relatively slow.
Hearing that, Ye Liuyun becomes curious again: "How abundant is the spiritual energy? If I don't cultivate, can I still improve?"
Qiong Qi laughs and scolds: "What are you thinking? The abundance only applies to children at the Yuan Dan level. Think about it: the energy you need now is dozens to hundreds of times that of the Yuan Dan level; relying solely on spiritual energy, it would take hundreds of years to advance one layer!"
"Then what resources does the Divine Realm use for cultivation? I should prepare in advance!" Ye Liuyun asks again.
"It's similar here, just the grades are higher. The Divine Realm's Divine Crystals correspond to our Spirit Stones; pills and treasures are the same. However, they call your stuff 'Mortal Rank, Mortal Items.' Items in the Divine Realm are all Divine Rank, Divine Items. There are also high and low grades, not much difference," Qiong Qi casually explains.
"Then the Divine Rank treasures we speak of..."
"Mortal Rank. Your Hunting Demon Bow and Hunting Demon Armor are the true Divine Rank treasures. It's just that beginner Divine Realm treasures are common in the Divine Realm. Otherwise, you wouldn't even be able to draw a bow!" Qiong Qi says.
"That's exaggerated! Then what treasures do children at the Yuan Dan level use?" Ye Liuyun asks, puzzled.
"There are mortal implements made especially for them! Ordinary materials can be casually refined. It's like you take some materials and casually forge something, without adding any Formation or seeking strong functions!" Qiong Qi also uses a comparison.
"Is my refining technique that poor?" Ye Liuyun asks skeptically.
Qiong Qi confirms: "The Divine Realm is full of things at your level! Even at my level, I wouldn't dare call myself a refiner!"
"Then forget it! I'd rather not learn refining. Refining also requires learning Formations; there's too much to learn!" Ye Liuyun doesn't want to waste energy on learning so many things.
"Some wealthy youths of the Divine Realm know a lot of Formations. You also need to learn some basic principles, memorize some Formations. Otherwise you'll be taken as a fool!" Qiong Qi laughs.
"... Then you directly transmit some to me using Divine Sense?" Ye Liuyun tentatively asks.
"The basics are fine, the rest you learn yourself!" Qiong Qi this time isn't stingy, actually transmits some basic things to Ye Liuyun.
However, what is basic for Qiong Qi becomes dazzlingly complex for Ye Liuyun, and he can only ponder it slowly later.
Qiong Qi also sees Ye Liuyun doesn't understand, and explains: "The essence of Formations is to learn and apply actively. If you truly can't grasp it, then rote memorization is the fallback!"
Ye Liuyun thanks, rewards Qiong Qi with a large piece of roasted meat, and continues asking: "What is the Divine Realm like? What major powers exist?"
While eating, Qiong Qi laughs: "For you, once you reach the Divine Realm, it's starting from scratch. Any organization that can be called a power, you can't provoke!"
As for the Divine Realm's appearance, it's similar to this world! There are trade guilds, ordinary civilians, and major powers.
Moreover, the Divine Realm is divided into five major sectors, far larger than this Zhongyang Dalu!
"How much larger?" Ye Liuyun asks.
"One hundred Zhongyang Dalu still doesn't match a single sector of the Divine Realm!" Qiong Qi says.
"Huh? That big?" Ye Liuyun finds it hard to believe.
"That's normal! The Zhongyang Dalu was shattered, it was never a single piece!" Qiong Qi says matter-of-factly.
"What kind of people can fight and shatter a continent!" Ye Liuyun exclaims.
He only sighed, but Qiong Qi directly tells him: "Even high-level Divine Realm strongmen can!"
Ye Liuyun then finally understands why Qiong Qi said the gaps between each layer of the Divine Realm are large.
Qiong Qi is now at the Divine Realm, but far from being able to split an entire continent.
"Are there Foreign Tribes in the Divine Realm?" Ye Liuyun finally asks.
