Forsaken Immortals-Chapter 292 - The Ascended Realm
Chapter 292 - The Ascended Realm
Bai Rouyun clearly understood that she had to be careful now that she was traveling alone, but even so, the excitement within her kept bubbling.
She had always been living on the prison continent, and while this life contained happier memories, she still longed for something else. She was eager to reunite with Li Moyun and to start life anew.
"I promise to break through as soon as possible so that both you and Xiao Jin can leave the Primal Chaos Dimension and travel alongside us."
Bai Rouyun looked at Xiao Bao with a gentle smile on her face. She had reached the apex of what the Heavenly Dao on the prison continent would allow, and after the breakthrough to a higher realm, she had arrived at the Wushi Continent.
The reason that the prison continent had been used as a place to banish and abandon families and others was due to the low potential the world had.
The Heavenly Dao for each world had its own characteristics, and the one that was in charge of the prison continent was suppressing all residents.
The prison continent did not have much heaven and earth essence, and even those born there would have worse talents than if born elsewhere.
It was also what made it very difficult for many native in that realm to ascend. Their talents would not allow them to do so, unless they paid an extraordinary price.
Currently, Bai Rouyun had broken away from the Innate Realm. The Innate Realm's highest rank was at the Seventh Layer of the Violet Tier.
A few days prior to her entering the Wushi Continent, she had managed to break through to the Ascended Realm, and the cultivation system had changed greatly.
The Ascended Realm was split into three sub-realms, and Bai Rouyun had just entered the first, the first layer of the Core Construction Realm.
Previously, before reaching the Ascended Realm, all the Qi that Bai Rouyun had refined had been swirling around within her dantian as a gas-like substance, but after entering the Core Construction Realm, this gas would slowly solidify and become a shining core of energy within.
The Core Construction Realm was split into nine layers, and the further one came in this realm, the more complete the core would become, until the final layer, the ninth layer, where the core would be completely solid and flawless.
After having fully refined the core, the next sub-realm of the Ascended Cultivation Realm was the Soul Refinement Realm. Much like the Core Construction Realm, it was split into nine layers, but here the cultivator would focus on their soul, and it was also at this point that they would begin to realize the effects of spiritual energy and soul power.
So far, Bai Rouyun had sensed a few traces of this power, but she had not been able to fully grasp it, and it was not before this sub-realm that she would learn how to enhance her soul.
When both the soul and core were fully created, the final sub-realm would be reached. This sub-realm was called the Corporeal Shedding, and it was focused on how the body would stop belonging to the mortal world.
The fleshy body would slowly become replaced by energy, and after the final layer was reached, the cultivator would have to go through a heavenly tribulation and their immortal body would be fully formed, after which they would reach yet another realm of cultivation.
Bai Rouyun had never known about these things before, and even Xiao Bao's knowledge seemed to have been sealed until her breakthrough to the Core Construction Realm.
When she broke through, a portion of his knowledge also surfaced in his mind, and Xiao Bao finally understood why his understanding of many things seemed limited.
According to their current situation, it seemed that his memories were sealed and would not be released before the master's cultivation base broke through to the next realm.
"I can't exit the Primal Chaos Dimension before you reach the ranks of immortals. For now, you are still considered mortal, and as long as this is the case, neither I nor Xiao Jin can leave."
Although there was a bit of regret in Xiao Bao's voice, he was not too saddened by the current situation, as he understood that with Bai Rouyun's potential and personality, it was merely a question about time before she would break through to the immortal realm, and he had already waited for so many years, so a few more or less did not matter.
Xiao Mao and Xiao Hua had stopped cultivating and had come to Bai Rouyun's side as they heard that she planned on taking them outside.
Throughout the years after contracting with Bai Rouyun, they had both stayed within the Primal Chaos Dimension where they had focused entirely on cultivating.
This was also the reason for their rapid advancement. Alongside the contract with Bai Rouyun, their talent had risen, and the energy within the Primal Chaos Dimension was also helpful, so even now, the two's strength was on par with Bai Rouyun.
The three, one human, one plant, and one beast, left the dimension and reappeared on the Wushi Continent.
The sunlight that had shone brightly earlier when Bai Rouyun had ascended had now dimmed, and the sky had turned pink as the sun was setting in the horizon.
The lush grass beneath her feet was shining in the remaining rays of sunlight and swaying gently in the breeze. The scent in the air was somewhat sweet but pleasant, and the cicadas' song could be vaguely heard from the thicket.
The place where they had arrived was beautiful beyond compare, and due to the lack of fierce beasts, it also seemed tranquil.. Even Bai Rouyun slowly calmed down and vigilantly began to look around for a place to rest.
