Bombarding Cultivators with Cluster Artillery
Chapter 2294 - 2261: The Three Realms Are the Height of the Nine Heavens
The Xianmen expedition fleet entered the Sagittarius Star Domain and was escorted by the Wei Zi Forbidden Army, flying toward the Ziwei Star Domain, step by step entering the center of this super Immortal Dao Nation.
The fleet passed through star realm teleportation formations, through Great Thousand World Clusters, witnessing various exotic landscapes.
After years of traveling, while passing through a Middle Thousand World Cluster, Cheng Zhen suddenly said, "Your Highness, might we visit some parts of the Human World to admire the awe-inspiring immortal wisdom of Your Majesties, so as not to squander this life?"
"Fellow Daoist Cheng Zhen, the Xianmen and the Wei Zi Royal Family are eternal allies, you need not be so formal."
"You may go wherever you wish, feel free to act at will."
A Quasi-Emperor, who had the rank of Heavenly Court prince, smiled warmly, saying, "We are all one family here, do not consider yourself a stranger or even a prisoner under guard, just feel at home."
"If you continue to be so polite, Fellow Daoist, I shall be offended."
He feigned displeasure.
Unlike many times when formal pleasantries are just superficial, this Quasi-Emperor of the Wei Zi Clan genuinely harbored goodwill, feeling very close to the Xianmen cultivators who had traveled from afar.
This was, naturally, for the reason of the Supreme Great Sun Sword Fairy.
This Human Race Sword Fairy had a deep connection with the Wei Zi Royal Family, their relationship even tracing back to the time of the Wei Zicheng ancestor from the late Ten Thousand Laws Immortal Dynasty, to which the formation of the Supreme Great Sun Sword Dao owed some contributions.
Furthermore, within the Dao Court, branches of the Wei Zi Royal Family also received preferential treatment.
This meant that, win or lose, except for a very few, the entire Wei Zi Royal Family was assured of safety, and there wouldn’t be any large-scale slaughter.
This is an escape route.
For various reasons, any cultivator of the Wei Zi Royal Family, unless involved in extremely intense conflicts of interest or momentarily foolish, would not make things difficult for a Xianmen cultivator.
And even if such a fool indeed appeared, the entire Wei Zi Royal Family would quickly deal with it.
"... So that’s how it is."
"Forgive me, Your Highness, this was my error."
Cheng Zhen keenly sensed the strong goodwill from the Quasi-Emperor before him, and said shamefully.
"Hahaha..." 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮
The Quasi-Emperor of the Wei Zi Clan laughed heartily.
The gap between the two parties unknowingly diminished a bit.
Many Xianmen cultivators felt less restrained.
Amidst laughter, the Xianmen fleet departed the Great Thousand World, arbitrarily choosing a direction toward a Middle Thousand World Cluster, after some time, passing through a rather lengthy dead silent starry sky, began approaching a Minor Thousand World, where with their vision they could even see mortals, Qi Practitioners, and Qi Cultivation Demon Cultivators and other beings in the Minor Thousand World.
In an instant, an extremely dangerous aura suddenly emerged in the minds of Cheng Zhen and other immortal sect strong people, slightly changing their expressions.
Just being near any Minor Thousand World could trigger such a lock-on. The Ten Thousand Races Heavenly Court... no, this is the Dao Court’s term, within their terminology, they are the Heavenly Court.
The Heavenly Court’s control over its territories far exceeded the Xianmen’s estimations.
"Fellow Daoist Cheng Zhen, this is the Heavenly Court’s Human World Great Array."
The Wei Zi Prince deliberately didn’t forewarn them, allowing them to experience it firsthand before solemnly stating, "The separation of the immortal and mortal is the iron law of the Heavenly Court, not to be breached by anyone!"
"You might have read this in previous Jade Slips, but the real separation between the immortal and mortal is much more stringent."
Reading a thousand scrolls, traveling a thousand miles.
This prince was indeed attentive to the Xianmen cultivators, meticulously arranging every itinerary, hoping the cultivators could integrate better into the Heavenly Court.
"We understand!"
Cheng Zhen earnestly replied.
He dared not proceed further, only gazing with his eyes at the myriad beings in the world.
In the Minor Thousand World, there were Dao Palaces, sects, courts, incense temples, all interacting harmoniously among the human, ghost, and divine cultivators. Seeds from mortal and demon scholars, seeds of the Divine Dao, and talented individuals were selected repeatedly, each sent to Dao Palaces and Divine Temples for education, followed by limited wars and conflicts.
The cultivators who triumphed in these limited wars would ascend to the Heavenly Court, excellent Divine beings would head westward to the Heavenly Court, while the remaining beings after these two selections would move toward the underworld.
’This is an exceptionally efficient talent cultivation system.’
’A vast number of Immortal Dao industry middle-level practitioners are continuously emerging through this process, an efficiency that might even compare to the Supreme Great Sun Dao Court...’
Cheng Zhen was shaken in his heart, silently musing.
The numerous Xianmen cultivators closely observed for a long time, especially watching attentively at the underworld’s reception point in the shadow of the Minor Thousand World before continuing on their journey.
The Xianmen expedition fleet continued sailing.
Along the way, they passed through star realms, Great Thousand Worlds, even entering a Reincarnation Underworld, where they stopped in a star realm filled with ghosts and fierce ghosts, the Yellow Springs River, before continuing their journey.
Underworld, Human World, Heavenly Court.
While clearly in the same endless starry sky here, they seemed distinctly like three separate worlds, isolated by some transcendental existence, which held extremely terrifying secrets in its isolation.
’Nine Heavens.’
’It must be the Nine Heavens...’
Cheng Zhen, one of the top immortal Dao scientists within Xianmen, keenly sensed something immediately.
These Three Realms, although appearing within the same endless starry sky, actually reside at different heights within the Nine Heavens; the Underworld at the lowest angle of the Nine Heavens, Human World next, and the Heavenly Court standing at the peak of the Nine Heavens, able to overlook the beings of the Human World to some extent, watching the passage of time in the mortal realm.
As they continued stopping and starting like this, the Xianmen expedition fleet, after nearly a hundred years of navigation, finally reached near the Ziwei Star Domain.
"Ziwei..."
Many Xianmen cultivators showed expressions of yearning.
Here, is the center of the endless starry sky, the richest place under the heavens.
"Taoist Friend Cheng, let’s not rush to pay respects to His Majesty."
"First come with me to see your fiefdom, receive those fiefdoms, if you find any dissatisfaction with the fiefdom, tell me, and we can make some adjustments for Fellow Daoist..."
The Wei Zi prince said with a smile.
"Fiefdom?"
Cheng Zhen was slightly puzzled.
"Ha ha!"
"Each sect and clan typically has one or two fiefdoms."
"Of course, even within a fiefdom, all the Heavenly Court’s immortal laws must be followed, you can freely recruit disciples and servants within the fiefdom, open mines, establish factory Immortal Dao Industrial Zones, and so on, which is the foundation of the clan..."
The Wei Zi Prince explained, "His Majesty has already granted the Xianmen Star Domain fifty-four if managed well, it should become a foundational base in the future."
"If Fellow Daoist and others make new contributions in the future, perhaps more star domains will be bestowed."
"Fifty-four star domains as private property?"
Cheng Zhen and other Xianmen cultivators were slightly shaken in their hearts.
This indeed was a considerable gesture, a massive amount of Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasures was directly bestowed, this True Immortal Wanfa indeed possessed the demeanor of a king, never being stingy in this regard.
From today onward, this place should now be home for these Xianmen civilization seeds.
