Chapter 514: The Realm Beyond Innate_1

"Now that the Blood Demon Sect has appeared, I’m afraid the remaining Evil Sects, Demon Palace, and Corpse King Palace will also reveal themselves one by one. The Blood Demon Sect is actually considered one of the weaker forces among the four major Demonic Path powers. If it weren’t for the Dragon Pavilion’s intervention back then, they would have been difficult to deal with."

The Elder of the Forbidden Land had a complex expression and sighed deeply as he spoke.

"Dragon Pavilion? What kind of power is that?" Ye Luo asked curiously.

"As for the Dragon Pavilion, we don’t know much ourselves and have never seen it. We only know from the books left by our ancestors that the Dragon Pavilion has always been the strongest righteous force among the Hidden Sects. Moreover, they have always been shrouded in mystery. Legend has it that they are the inheritors of the Divine Dragon, aiming to protect the prosperity of Huaxia."

"I see."

Ye Luo nodded, feeling a bit curious about this Dragon Pavilion.

"However, we of the Miao Tribe have never left Miaojiang, and we are not very clear about the current power structure of the Hidden Sects. Seeing your strength at such a young age, you must also be from one of the Hidden Sects," the two Elders of the Forbidden Land said, their gazes turning to Ye Luo.

Ye Luo shook his head: "I am not from the Hidden Sects; all my skills were taught by my master."

"It seems your master is certainly a reclusive expert. Do you have any other questions?"

"Could the two Elders explain the realm division beyond the Innate Realm? I only know that after the Innate Realm comes the Saint Realm, but I’m unaware of the specific divisions of realms."

Ye Luo asked the question he was most eager to know. Currently, the powerful individuals he encountered were mostly in the Half-Saint Realm or the Saint Realm, so it was necessary to understand these realms clearly.

"The martial path begins with the Acquired Realm, followed by the Innate Realm and then the Saint Realm. Only upon entering the Saint Realm does one truly become a Martial Artist. Above the Saint Realm are the Hua Yuan Realm, the Spirit Sea Realm, and the Controlling Qi Realm, each major realm divided into nine sub-levels, from the first to the ninth."

"I had no idea there were so many divisions of realms above the Innate Realm."

Ye Luo was visibly astonished. At this moment, he realized just how insignificant he was, his strength counted for nothing in the presence of truly powerful Martial Artists.

"It is said that once you enter the Controlling Qi Realm, you can free yourself from the shackles of heaven and earth and fly in the sky, becoming a truly unbounded and powerful being," the two Elders of the Forbidden Land said, with a look of longing and helplessness in their eyes.

It was clear that they both wished to step into that wondrous realm, but given their age and experience, it was no longer possible.

"To be able to fly in the sky, that must be awesome," Ye Luo smacked his lips, imagining the feeling of soaring through the skies. That was absolutely exhilarating!

"Indeed, the Controlling Qi Realm is desired by everyone, but reaching that level is not something just anyone can do. In our Miao Tribe, only our ancestor reached that realm, and even then, only to the Fifth Level of the Controlling Qi Realm."

"I’m afraid, in the Hidden Sects of today, aside from some old monsters from the top forces, very few can achieve that realm."

The two Elders of the Forbidden Land sighed: "The martial path is such that only after entering the Saint Realm does one truly begin cultivating, and each step across a realm requires immense willpower, talent, and even opportunities."

"It took nearly a hundred years for the two of us to reach only the Seventh Level of the Saint Realm. You can imagine how difficult it is to step into the Controlling Qi Realm without exceptional talent, qualifications, and immense opportunities."

Ye Luo nodded but secretly vowed to himself that he would definitely reach it. Since he had become a Martial Artist, he wanted to be the strongest one, only then would he not be dominated by others, and also, being able to fly in the sky, what an amazing thing that would be!

If the two Miao Tribe elders knew that Ye Luo only wanted to reach the Controlling Qi Realm so that he could fly in the sky, they would certainly spit out a mouthful of old blood.

"Right, what about the realms above the Controlling Qi Realm? Aren’t there any, or is the Controlling Qi Realm the peak of the martial path?" Ye Luo suddenly thought of something and looked at the two Forbidden Land elders.

One of the Forbidden Land elders smiled and said, "How could there be a peak to the martial path? It is all about continuously breaking through one’s own limits. Above the Controlling Qi Realm, we only know of the Void Shattering Realm, and beyond that, we do not know."

"It is said that reaching this realm allows one to shatter the void and step into another world, but whether this is true or not, we cannot be certain. With Huaxia’s history spanning several thousand years, it’s possible that not a single person has reached this realm, or perhaps this realm doesn’t even exist."

"Shattering the void, stepping into another world?" Ye Luo was once again shocked. Could there be other worlds beyond Earth?

"Alright, this is what I understand. The rest is up to you to explore on your own. We have great expectations for you, with your talent alongside the strength you’ve absorbed from the Blood Demon Pool, your future achievements will surely not be low."

The two Forbidden Land elders’ ancient faces revealed a smile as they looked at Ye Luo.

"Thank you, elders, for telling me so much today," Ye Luo said, standing up and bowing to the two.

After leaving the Forbidden Land elders, Ye Luo chatted with Nie Wenyu and the others for a while. He checked his phone and found no signal at all. He had been in Miaojiang for three or four days, and he didn’t know if anything had happened in Zhonghai. Right away, Ye Luo also prepared to leave Miaojiang and return to Zhonghai.

"Ye Luo, since you are leaving, why not take Xiao Ling with you?"

Miao Chang’an suddenly said to Ye Luo.

"What? Take Xiao Ling out? This..." Ye Luo’s face changed slightly, his gaze flickering, while Miao Xiaoling also looked different, but her eyes held a hint of anticipation.

Xiao Ling has never experienced the world outside Miaojiang since she was born. Now that she has come of age, it’s time for her to go out and about. I believe with you around, Xiao Ling will not be in any danger," Miao Chang’an said to Ye Luo with a smile.

"This... That depends on Xiao Ling’s own wishes," Ye Luo said after thinking it over, his gaze turning to Miao Xiaoling.

"Father, I would miss you and everyone if I left Miaojiang," Miao Xiaoling said to Miao Chang’an with a reluctant look, making Ye Luo think she was going to refuse Miao Chang’an’s suggestion. Then, her tone suddenly shifted, saying,

"But, Father is right. I really should get out and see the world beyond Miaojiang, or else I’ll go stir crazy just staying here."

"This girl is indeed a playful spirit," Ye Luo thought to himself as he looked at Miao Xiaoling.

"Alright then, pack up and head out with Ye Luo. But remember, you must not cause any trouble, or else return to Miaojiang immediately," Miao Chang’an instructed Miao Xiaoling.

"Don’t worry, Father, I won’t cause any trouble," Miao Xiaoling said with a mischievous smile.

In the end, Ye Luo, accompanied by Nie Yuntian and his daughter, Zi Yun, and the Beast King, as well as Miao Xiaoling, who was newly added to the group, the six of them left Miaojiang together and headed towards the city of Dian Nan.
