At present.
It's impossible to leave unscathed.
"Fellow Daoist, stop now. If this is really a misunderstanding, I will naturally let you go and apologize to you," White Sea Lord's voice resonated again in Wu Yuan's mind. "If you struggle again, I'm really worried that I might accidentally kill you."
His response was silence.
Wu Yuan's speed did not slow down in the slightest, still fleeing frantically.
And just as the sword formation was about to descend.
"White Sea, today, it's all because of you." Wu Yuan's cold voice suddenly rang out.
Swoosh! Swoosh!
Wu Yuan, who was originally fleeing frantically, suddenly split into two again, and then more than ten true shadows appeared in the chaotic flow of space fragments.
Extremely eerie.
Each true shadow was fleeing in all directions frantically, and each shadow's aura was extremely real, making it impossible to distinguish between true and false.
"Hmm? What kind of escape technique is this? I can't even tell?" White Sea Lord was even more shocked.
Wu Yuan's lifesaving methods were simply endless.
Ordinary shadow techniques could not escape his detection; often, he could instantly recognize his true body by using his heavenly eye spell.
"Disperse!"
With a thought, White Sea Lord's originally condensed sword formation instantly dispersed, transforming back into nine flying swords, rushing in all directions, chasing after each true shadow.
"Pfft~"
"Pfft~" The space churned, and several shadows dissipated under the onslaught of the immortal swords, finally revealing Wu Yuan's true form in one of the shadows.
"There he is!"
"Kill!" White Sea Lord's eyes were cold, and with a thought, the massive sword formation quickly converged and chased after Wu Yuan's true form, completely shrouding the entire area.
The two sides clashed instantly.
"Clang!"
"Clang!" "Clang!" The clash of swords, Wu Yuan erupted with all his strength, the nine battle swords roaring, resisting the onslaught of the sword formation time and time again, but being blasted away each time.
In the blink of an eye.
The two sides clashed and collided hundreds of times, each clash injuring him, and Wu Yuan's life force rapidly declining.
And during the clash.
In the void, several true shadows were still fleeing frantically, escaping far beyond the range of the sword formation.
"Surrender." White Sea Lord quickly closed in, waving his big hand, and two black immortal chains flew out.
Transforming into two black dragon, once again enveloping Wu Yuan.
Originally, Wu Yuan was struggling hard. If he waited for the immortal chains to close in, he might be captured in one fell swoop.
"Trying to trap me? Dream on!" Wu Yuan roared in anger and shouted angrily, "Explode for me!"
White Sea Lord couldn't help but be stunned.
"Boom!"
Just saw Wu Yuan, who had consumed most of his source power, suddenly erupt with a large amount of life source power contained in his flesh.
Self-detonation!
It means burning one's own life source power, making a final strike at the cost of life, often with great power.
"Boom~"
This seemingly terrifying energy surge instantly surged in all directions, but even the vast sword formation covering thousands of miles around was difficult to shake.
Let alone threatening White Sea Lord.
Self-detonation, unlike normal attacks, does not contain the comprehension of the Dao, so the magnitude of its power comes from one's own mana and source power.
And Wu Yuan is only at the level of a ground deity, so-called self-detonation, is just unwilling to be captured.
Once captured, life and death will be out of one's control, and it's hard to self-detonate.
Moreover.
Wu Yuan always remembered the fate of the Ten Thousand Thunder Lord, who fell because his source body was captured, which ultimately led to his demise.
"Hmm? Something's wrong!" White Sea Lord suddenly woke up, turning his head to look towards the end of the world.
In the turbulent flow of fragments, there are still several true shadows that have not dissipated.
They have escaped more than two hundred thousand miles.
Shaking him off.
"Swoosh!" Only saw those several true shadows merge in an instant, once again forming the figure of Wu Yuan, with a slightly pale complexion.
"Fellow Daoist is ruthless!"
"Rather abandon the source body than talk first? Do you really have a grudge against me, afraid I'll kill you?" White Sea Lord transmitted his voice from a distance.
"Talk nonsense!"
"White Sea, today you forced me like this." Wu Yuan's voice was cold and indifferent, echoing, "Wait, I will come back sooner or later, and then, you'll see."
"Alright, I'll wait for Fellow Daoist's arrival." White Sea Lord responded indifferently.
He didn't care about Wu Yuan's threats.
He had heard many similar threats.
He didn't pursue Wu Yuan anymore. In terms of flying speed in the space fragment layer, he was far inferior to Wu Yuan. He just waved his hand and collected many treasures left by Wu Yuan's source body.
Watched Wu Yuan disappear into the turbulent flow of space fragments.
"This guy is ruthless enough."
White Sea Lord shook his head slightly, but he had no choice.
When Wu Yuan turned into more than a dozen true shadows, although his sword formation was powerful, he could only chase after a part of the true shadows.
He couldn't chase them all!
From Wu Yuan's choice to separate the source and the main body, it was a gamble.
If White Sea Lord had chased after the main body.
Then Wu Yuan would have to choose to expose the mystery of time and space, make a full effort, and see if he could escape with his life.
But the result was.
White Sea Lord chose one out of two, and in the end, he only chased after the source body. Wu Yuan also took the opportunity to abandon the source body and escape directly.
"But."
"This kind of extraordinary talent, with such strength, should have long been famous in the immortal world, but I have never heard of it." White Sea Lord secretly pondered, "Where did he come from?"
Suddenly.
He flashed a hint of surprise in his eyes: "The Lord is coming, personally investigating? And will arrive in a quarter of an hour?"
The temporal and spatial domain of a side immortal country, although vast to millions of light-years.
But various forces, for better control, would establish extremely high-level teleportation arrays on major immortal continents, allowing cultivators to teleport through the void layer.
Traversing the void layer, crossing a diameter of billions of light-years of the great realm, often only takes a few days.
The Lord rushed over from his own lair through the highest-level teleportation array, and a quarter of an hour is not considered long, after all, they are all in one immortal country.
The time spent did not surprise White Sea Lord.
What surprised him was that the Lord would come over first. After all, the Lord had many powerful subordinates. Although he reported the news as soon as possible, the Lord might not necessarily pay immediate attention to it.
White Sea Lord waited patiently.
...
In the chaotic space fragment layer, Wu Yuan was moving at a speed of 'a hundred thousand miles per second'.
This was the limit speed of his physical main body in the space fragment layer.
As he fled.
He was also pondering this battle.
"The Ninefold Immortal Master is indeed formidable. I underestimated him." Wu Yuan shook his head slightly.
His direct attack now barely reached the level of the Sevenfold Immortal Master.
And endurance, physical defense, and so on, are all inferior to opponents of the same level, and his means are also lacking.
Like White Sea Lord.
Illusory techniques of the divine soul, divine soul techniques, long-range restraints, and strong sword kills are all the pinnacle of the Ninefold Immortal Master!
In the battle.
He naturally overwhelmed Wu Yuan.
Of course, if Wu Yuan's Qi Refining main body came, his frontal combat power would be even weaker than that of the Physical Refining main body, but relying on the uniqueness of the Dao of Time and Space, he could easily escape.
Different paths have different strengths.
"In terms of comprehension of the Dao, I am far superior to him, but I am disadvantaged in basic strength." Wu Yuan muttered to himself.
The same mysterious techniques of the Dao, when cast with different foundations, naturally have vastly different powers.
"Return to the Azure Peak Witch Realm."
"Cultivate to become a god, and practice the introductory part of the 'Heavenly Creation Prohibition'. Before that, I won't go out adventuring anymore." Wu Yuan muttered to himself.
Once the introductory part of the 'Heavenly Creation Prohibition' is mastered, the source power can burst out with the power of the Triple Immortal Master, and Wu Yuan's combat power will naturally soar.
"Master."
"When your source body is cultivated again, and you want to go adventuring like this again, remember to take me with you. Don't let me and your main body stay at home together." Little Black's voice echoed in Wu Yuan's mind.
"Yes, of course." Wu Yuan responded with a smile.
From the Mountain and River Realm onwards, the main witch beast fell, and it could be revived in the mountains and rivers within the body.
In a sense, the main witch beast is a kind of alternative source body.
Therefore, most Qi Refining practitioners of the Witch lineage are accompanied by their main witch beasts when they venture out into the world.
"This battle."
"Although I exposed the Dao of Space, I didn't expose the Dao of Time." Wu Yuan muttered, "Even if my true identity is discovered by the Azure Spirit Immortal Realm in the future, the impact won't be significant."
Wu Yuan didn't care too much.
Exposure is a matter of time, as long as it is not fully exposed before becoming a god.
Apart from the Thunder Feather Temple, other major forces generally do not invite monarchs to take action.
Hum~
Wu Yuan suddenly appeared a time domain around him, the flow of time changed rapidly, the speed remained the same, but the distance traveled skyrocketed.
Quickly moving away.
...
In the starry sky outside the Thunder Veil World, it was extremely quiet, with only White Sea Lord present. He gazed at the distant Thunder Veil World absentmindedly.
Just now, the battle between the two took place in the space fragment layer, so it did not affect the material space layer.
This is also why battles between super strong individuals often go unnoticed by the world.
They mostly fight in higher-dimensional spaces, invisible to ordinary beings, and therefore rarely affect them.
Suddenly.
Whoosh~ A burly figure appeared in the distant void, dressed in purple armor, with boots stepping in the void, as if trampling the entire world underfoot.
The aura was overwhelming!
Far surpassing White Sea Lord.
"Lord." White Sea Lord saw from afar and immediately flew to the front of the burly figure in purple armor, respectfully saluting.
The visitor.
Is none other than the ruler of the Illusionary Immortal Realm—the Illusionary Lord.
Just as White Cang Immortal Country has thirteen lords, the Illusionary Immortal Realm also has more than one lord.
It can be said that those who can establish an immortal country are mostly stronger among the lords.
"White Sea." The Illusionary Lord's gaze fell on White Sea Lord.
He ruled over thousands of immortal continents. Apart from the lords ruled by other lords, he had tens of thousands of direct subordinate lords under him. White Sea Lord's strength could definitely rank in the top hundred, naturally earning his attention.
"I have read the information you reported in detail. What about the person?" the Illusionary Lord asked.
"That person has already fled."
"I rushed here as soon as I received the report from my celestial servants, intending to keep him, but he directly resisted... and eventually risked the collapse of his source body to escape." White Sea Lord quickly explained the situation, saying softly, "I am incompetent and failed to keep him."
"Oh? He managed to escape from you?" The Illusionary Lord's eyes flashed with surprise.
He was well aware of White Sea Lord's strength.
"His comprehension of the Dao should have reached the level of a Lord, his techniques are mysterious, and I couldn't see through his origins... I only feel that it's somewhat similar to the laws of life, but not entirely." White Sea Lord said solemnly, "Also, he seems to have mastered the true essence of space."
"The laws of life, Lord level? True essence of space?" The Illusionary Lord's eyes flashed with astonishment.
He instantly deduced.
If he was truly just a cultivator, such a monstrous talent would probably be the most outstanding figure in the entire realm.
"Therefore, I judge that he is probably not from our lineage." White Sea Lord said solemnly, "It is even possible that there is enmity."
"Mm." The Illusionary Lord nodded involuntarily.
If they were from their lineage, with such talent, their status would certainly be extremely high. As long as they revealed their identity, White Sea Lord would not make things difficult for them.
"You step back and let me have a look." The Illusionary Lord said.
"Yes."
White Sea Lord immediately flew away. There was a hint of anticipation in his eyes, looking forward to seeing the Lord's extraordinary skills once again.
*Whoosh!*
The Illusionary Lord closed his eyes, and behind him in the void, a faintly looming giant one-eyed shadow appeared.
The one-eyed void emitted purple light, shining in all directions.
"The Eye of Illusion." White Sea Lord muttered to himself, this was the Illusionary Lord's famous skill.
Proficient in soul attacks, even more adept at deduction and karma sensing.
Whoosh~ Suddenly, the light emitted by the huge one-eyed shadow surged, shining in all directions of the world.
Wherever the shadow shone, countless images faintly appeared, as if time itself began to flow backward.
There were scenes of Wu Yuan flying out of the Thunder Veil World.
There were scenes of him fighting with Celestial Immortals from Yuzhou and Wuhai... and even scenes of Wu Yuan battling White Sea Lord in the space fragment layer...
This scene shocked White Sea Lord.
Reviewing the past, deducing it, this ability was unimaginable for him. He patiently waited.
A large number of past shadows continued to appear.
Just then.
A sudden change occurred.
*Crack~* A horrifying crack suddenly appeared in the huge one-eyed shadow, and then this crack suddenly expanded, countless fine cracks instantly covering the one-eyed shadow.
Too fast, so fast that the Illusionary Lord didn't even have time to react.
*Boom~*
The huge one-eyed shadow suddenly exploded, releasing countless purple lights that quickly converged.
"Ah!" The Illusionary Lord couldn't help but scream.
Two lines of bloody tears flowed from his originally closed eyes, and even his soul's aura became chaotic.
"Lord? What's this?" White Sea Lord looked at him in shock, a hint of fear flashing in his heart.
He was worried.
If even the Illusionary Lord was attacked like this, what about him as a lord?
After a while.
*Whoosh!* The two lines of bloody tears on the Illusionary Lord's face disappeared, and the one-eyed shadow behind him completely dissipated. His whole person returned to normal, only the aura of his soul had changed somewhat, obviously he was seriously injured.
There was a hint of shock in his eyes.
"White Sea."
"What kind of monster have you provoked?" The Illusionary Lord stared at White Sea Lord, his voice tinged with shock. "In the past, I tried to deduce the whereabouts of the lord and was backlash by the lord's sensing, but the injuries I suffered were not as severe as today's."
"What you provoked today."
"In terms of deducing perception difficulty, it is even higher than the lord!" The Illusionary Lord said solemnly, "In his fate, there seems to be a terrifying power that I cannot match."
"What?" White Sea Lord was stunned.
It felt somewhat absurd.
Higher difficulty in deducing perception than the lord? He couldn't believe it, but the Illusionary Lord had no reason to deceive him.
"You have caused a great disaster." The Illusionary Lord shook his head.
White Sea Lord suddenly panicked.
"But, it's not entirely your fault." The Illusionary Lord said in a low voice, "I have practiced for many years, and I have never heard of such an existence."
"I suspect that the cultivator you encountered is not pretending to be a Earth God, but is actually an Earth God." The Illusionary Lord shook his head.
"An Earth God?"
White Sea Lord was startled. He had always thought that he encountered a Supreme God, just pretending, after all, the aura of life couldn't be faked.
If it really was an Earth God.
The eruption of the Earth God's strength? Thinking of the Illusionary Lord's recent behavior, White Sea Lord felt a chill down his spine.
"I find it difficult to investigate the truth of this matter."
"But 'for the Lords, it's not too important a matter in the end." The Illusionary Lord shook his head. "I will immediately report to the Lords, but you also know, under the Lords' command, there are countless strong individuals, and I don't know when they will see me."
"When there is news and results, I will inform you."
"Yes." White Sea Lord nodded repeatedly.
Lords?
He had been cultivating for billions of years, and he had only been fortunate enough to see Lords twice, and they hadn't even spoken.
...
Until nearly a month later, the largest divine virtual realm in the Qingling Immortal Realm - the Qingling Immortal Realm.
Here, most of the strong individuals in the Qingling Immortal Realm were active.
In a grand temple built within a vast plane opened up in the Immortal Realm.
"Lord." The Illusionary Lord bowed respectfully, feeling uneasy.
"A month ago, you reported something to me, and I tried to deduce it." Sitting on a high throne, a woman in a purple robe spoke with a pleasant voice, full of endless majesty. "The past time is too long."
"Unfathomable!"
"The other party is an existence that cannot be deduced." The purple-robed female Lord said.
"What?" The Illusionary Lord was even more shocked. He comprehended the law of causality and naturally understood what this meant.
Even the Lords said so.
"But I have asked other Lords in the immortal realm, and this cultivator should not be a member of our immortal realm." The purple-robed female Lord said slowly, "It is estimated to be a super genius hidden by other major forces in the Great World."
"Today, there is no exposure. When he rises in the future, he will naturally reveal himself. Just observe secretly."
"But spread the order, do not leak this matter." The purple-robed female Lord looked down at the Illusionary Lord.
"Yes." The Illusionary Lord nodded repeatedly. "I know it's important, and I've already spread the order to seal this matter."
"Okay, you can go now."
...
What happened among the high-levels of the Qingling Immortal Realm was naturally unknown to Wu Yuan.
After leaving the White Sea Immortal Continent.
He disguised himself as an ordinary Earth God and quickly rushed towards the direction of the Hengyang Immortal Realm from the teleportation arrays in various starry skies of the Qingling Immortal Realm.
After more than a month.
He finally returned to the temporal and spatial territory of the Azure Peak Witch Realm from the Hengyang Immortal Realm, and at this moment, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He's back home.
Even in the Hengyang Immortal Realm, he was on edge.
After all, even the North Wandering Immortal Lord might not recognize his original body.
As for the other high-level figures in the Hengyang Immortal Realm? Even less so.
Of course, in the Blood Refining Demon Palace, there was a group of Celestial Immortal Star Lords who remembered his existence. It hadn't been even a thousand years since he set some records.
In the core of the Azure Peak Witch Realm, the Azure Peak Continent.
"I'm finally back."
Wu Yuan walked out of the teleportation array, overlooking the vast land below and the palaces scattered like stars, feeling genuinely joyful.
Immediately, Wu Yuan flew towards the nearby Azure Peak City.
Azure Peak City was the core of the entire Witch Realm, where many star lords and star monarchs of the Witch Realm resided.
At the highest point of this vast city, which covered billions of miles, was the temple of the Witch Realm Lords in a special space-time.
Similarly.
In the city, there were also teleportation arrays leading to the five original realms of the Witch Realm. When Wu Yuan left the Witch Realm, he first arrived at Azure Peak City and then left from there.
With the token in hand.
Through the teleportation array, Wu Yuan arrived at the Void Continent of the Fourth Original Witch Realm. However, as soon as he stepped out of the teleportation array, he was ordered to stay where he was.
"Hold it!"
"Wu Yuan? The Wu Yuan from hundreds of years ago, has he finally returned?"
"He's still alive? I thought he had fallen." Outside the teleportation array, the group of celestial and witch beings guarding here were all shocked.
Back then.
In just a few decades, Wu Yuan had consecutively obtained the titles of Heavenly Rank in the Fifth and Fourth Original Witch Realms, causing quite a stir.
At least, these celestial and witch beings of the original Witch Realms all remembered it clearly.
In their understanding, Wu Yuan's talent was among the best even in the First Original Witch Realm.
Just.
Never expected that after a disappearance of just over six hundred years, for Wu Yuan, who was not even a hundred years old at the time.
Six hundred years was a very long time.
So, many celestial and witch beings of the original Witch Realms speculated that Wu Yuan had already perished in the outside world.
They didn't make Wu Yuan wait too long.
"Wu Yuan." A black-armored Sixth-Tribulation Upper Witch flew down, followed by several other upper witches, all with solemn expressions.
"I am a member of the Law Enforcement Hall of the original Witch Realm, you can call me Ju Hai." The black-armored Upper Witch said solemnly.
"Upper Witch Ju Hai." Wu Yuan nodded slightly.
"We have verified that you have completed the trial tasks of the Mountain and River Realm and are qualified to enter the Third Original Witch Realm after stepping into the Holy Domain Realm. However, since you are now an Earth Witch, you must go to the Second Original Witch Realm."
"But you have not completed the trial tasks of the Holy Domain stage."
Wu Yuan nodded.
Members of the original Witch Realm have corresponding trial tasks in each major realm, which must be completed in order to enter the next level of the original Witch Realm.
After all.
Members of the original Witch Realm, if they cultivate step by step, each of them can become an upper witch, but there are too many of them, and if they all become upper witches, the required resources would be too much, and the entire witch realm would not be able to bear it.
Therefore, there are repeated trials and constant eliminations.
Without passing the trial, even if one's cultivation improves, it is difficult to enter a higher level of the original Witch Realm.
"Wu Yuan."
"The Witch Realm has its rules, and occasionally, members of the original Witch Realm may break through while exploring the outside world and fail to meet the trial requirements."
"But as long as you pass the assessment."
"Although you were a Heavenly Rank member back then, if you want to go to the Second Original Witch Realm, you must also pass the corresponding assessment." Upper Witch Ju Hai said solemnly. "Do you understand?"
"I understand." Wu Yuan nodded.
Before truly revealing his identity as a disciple of the lord, members of the original Witch Realm are a good disguise.
Moreover.
Within the five original Witch Realms, they are all quite safe, and unless it's a spatial lord, it's difficult for other powerful lords to intrude.
"Wu Yuan, there are two types of trials. The first is to go to the Intermediate Witch Immortal battlefield and become a Seventh-Tribulation warrior." Upper Witch Ju Hai said, "The second is for us to choose a member of the Second Original Witch Realm for you to fight against, and you must defeat them."
"Which one do you choose?"
"The second one." Wu Yuan immediately said.
Upper Witch Ju Hai and several other immortals couldn't help but look at each other, and one of the immortals couldn't help but say, "Wu Yuan, are you sure? Members of the Second Original Witch Realm have practiced for thousands of years, much longer than you."
"Wu Yuan, think again. This is a random selection. If you encounter some Earth-Tribulation members, their strength is comparable to that of upper witches." Upper Witch Ju Hai also said solemnly.
"Practicing for a long time doesn't mean being strong." Wu Yuan shook his head and smiled, "No need, let's go with the second option."
He understood the meaning of these upper witches and immortals.
These two types of assessments.
The first one takes longer but has lower time difficulty and greater hope if taken slowly.
"Alright, then let's go to the Second Original Witch Realm with us." Upper Witch Ju Hai saw the situation and didn't bother to persuade anymore.
"After passing the assessment, your servants will bring the things you left behind to the Second Original Witch Realm."
"Yeah." Wu Yuan nodded.
Over the years, most of his servants from the Refining Void Continent and Cen Jiang stayed on the original continent where he belonged.
The group quickly passed through the teleportation array.
Headed towards the Second Original Witch Realm.
...
The five original Witch Realms are all extremely vast, seemingly in different worlds, but in fact, very close to each other.
For the convenience of Witch Realm management.
In the First Original Witch Realm, at the highest temple, there are many upper witches and immortals stationed here, and they all take pride in guarding here.
And today, there were many laughter coming from the temple, causing some confusion among the upper witches and immortals outside.
Why is the lord so happy?
Inside the temple.
"Interesting."
"Interesting, disappeared for over six hundred years, and Wu Yuan actually came back." Lord Hou Qu Xing looked at the message sent to him and smiled, "And he directly became an Earth Witch?"
"Tsk tsk!"
"Looking at this, it seems that he had already broken through to become an Earth Witch early on, and he was pressing for time to break through. Truly confident, but it's understandable. After all, he's a disciple of the lord." Lord Hou Qu Xing shook his head and chuckled.
He is the overall leader of the original Witch Realm.
Knowing the details of all the members of the original Witch Realm, so he pays special attention to lord's disciples like Wu Yuan.
As soon as Wu Yuan returned, the news was sent to him.
"Quite confident, directly choosing the second option." Lord Hou Qu Xing muttered to himself, "Not afraid of encountering Earth-Tribulation members?"
In his view, although Wu Yuan's talent is extraordinary, he has only been cultivating for less than a thousand years after all.
His strength is probably not even comparable to the Earth-Tribulation members of the Second Original Witch Realm.
"Who should I choose? Should I go easy on him, or give him some difficulty? I'm not sure about his current strength," Lord Hou Qu Xing was pondering.
Suddenly.
"Hou Qu!" A gentle voice sounded in his mind.
"Lord?" Lord Hou Qu Xing was suddenly startled, he instantly heard it clearly.
It was the voice of Lord Kua Chi.
Only the lord can silently transmit messages like this.
"The battle of Wu Yuan's return to the original Witch Realm, let Chang Hong go." Lord Kua Chi's voice sounded again.
"Chang Hong?" Lord Hou Qu Xing widened his eyes, "Lord, do you want to give Wu Yuan some tempering..."
There was no response anymore.
"What is the lord thinking?" Lord Hou Qu Xing muttered to himself, "One who has been cultivating for over seven thousand years, with insights comparable to celestial beings... and one who has been cultivating for just over seven hundred years. Is there even a need for a contest?"
"It seems."
"The lord is somewhat dissatisfied with Wu Yuan's disappearance for hundreds of years. However, given the lord's temperament, willing to personally entrust it again, should still be willing to cultivate him." Lord Hou Qu Xing speculated on Lord Kua Chi's thoughts.
After a little thought.
He quickly sent a message to Chang Hong and Jiang Huan, secretly saying, "Since it's a battle between lord's disciples, it's better not to make it public."
Immediately.
He immediately announced outside, "Spread the word, bring Wu Yuan to the First Original Witch Realm, I want to personally observe the battle."
"Yes." Immediately, an upper witch responded.
These upper witches weren't too surprised either. They knew Lord Hou Qu Xing's character, he liked to do everything himself.
Moreover, they had all heard of Wu Yuan.
...
In the Second Original Witch Realm, within Chang Hong's void continent in the Meditation Tower.
"Hmm?"
Chang Hong, who was meditating in a black robe, suddenly opened his eyes. He had received the message sent by Lord Hou Qu Xing.
"Wu Yuan junior brother, has he broken through to become an Earth Witch? So quickly?"
"He hasn't even passed the trial of the Sanctum Realm?" Chang Hong frowned slightly, "Lord Hou Qu Xing actually chose me to assess Wu Yuan junior brother."
"Does he want me to teach Wu Yuan junior brother a lesson?"
---
Author's note: Ten thousand words, three in one.
Except for the guaranteed two chapters, three more added out of 34.
(End of this chapter)
Chapter 421: Master, Not Enough!
Wu Yuan followed Upper Witch Ju Hai and others, arriving at the Second Original Witch Realm's Original Witch Continent through the teleportation array from the Fourth Original Witch Realm.
But just a moment later.
Outside the teleportation array, Wu Yuan saw a familiar figure flying out from another small teleportation array.
A young man in a black robe, with an extraordinary temperament and a rather indifferent expression.
"Senior Brother Chang Hong?" Wu Yuan was slightly stunned, it was indeed Chang Hong, whom he hadn't seen for hundreds of years.
What a coincidence?
Over six hundred years had passed, and Wu Yuan had broken through from the Sanctum Realm of the past all the way to the Earth Witch level.
Chang Hong was still at this level.
Wu Yuan wasn't surprised by this. Earth Witches live up to ninety thousand years, and Chang Hong had only been cultivating for over seven thousand years, which was considered very young.
In ordinary immortal sects, Earth Immortals and Earth Witches under thirty thousand years old were considered "young talents."
Moreover, although members of the Second Original Witch Realm were all talented individuals, their cultivation progress was extremely fast, but there was also a rule that breaking through to become an Upper Witch or Upper Witch within twenty thousand years was acceptable.
Huh!
However, Chang Hong did not fly elsewhere but came straight over and landed on the ground.
"Earth Witch Chang Hong."
"It's Chang Hong."
"Chang Hong, the legendary member of the Second Original Witch Realm." Upper Witch Ju Hai and several others looked towards Chang Hong one after another.
Not only them, but practitioners in the area of the teleportation array also looked over, with eyes of admiration or respect.
Obviously, Chang Hong's reputation was very great.
Wu Yuan sighed inwardly, not surprised by this.
As the only member of the Second Original Witch Realm at the Upper Witch level, he represented the first person among the billions of Earth Immortals and Earth Witches in the eight hundred Witch Nations and four million Witch Continents of the Cang Feng Witch Realm!
Looking across the entire Qingling Realm, he was at least in the top ten among Earth Immortals and Earth Witches.
Naturally, he had a great reputation.
"Earth Witch Chang Hong." Upper Witch Ju Hai was respectful and somewhat puzzled, "May I ask why you're here?"
He wasn't this polite to Wu Yuan.
"I've received orders from the higher-ups to spar with Wu Yuan to verify if he's qualified to re-enter the Second Original Witch Realm." Chang Hong said coldly.
Upper Witch Ju Hai was stunned.
The group of Upper Witches and Upper Witches who were with him were shocked.
Wu Yuan was equally astonished. Senior Brother Chang Hong wanted to spar with him?
"Really?" Upper Witch Ju Hai couldn't help but ask.
"Is there any doubt?" Chang Hong shook his head and then looked at Wu Yuan with a cold gaze. "At the same time, we've been ordered to go to the First Original Witch Realm for a match. Senior officials will be watching. Let's go quickly."
Upper Witch Ju Hai and the others glanced at each other and nodded. "Okay, let's go."
At this moment, they also received orders through the Cang Feng Witch Realm.
"Wu Yuan." Upper Witch Ju Hai glanced at Wu Yuan, his mouth opened slightly, but he ultimately didn't say anything.
The other Upper Witches and Upper Witches looked at Wu Yuan with the same pitying eyes, apparently thinking Wu Yuan was too unlucky.
Wu Yuan couldn't help but smile.
He naturally understood what these Upper Witches and Upper Witches were thinking.
"Senior Brother Chang Hong, do you really want to spar with me?" Wu Yuan transmitted his voice.
"Yes." Chang Hong responded via voice transmission, his voice icy. "Junior Brother, it seems you've forgotten what I told you back then. How could you break through to become an Earth Witch without passing the trial test of the Sanctum Realm and without becoming a legendary warrior on the Witch battlefield?"
Wu Yuan was speechless.
Back then, when he first became a disciple of Master Kua Chi, Senior Brother Chang Hong seemed to look down on him a bit and said some words.
But Wu Yuan never really cared.
He didn't expect that after over six hundred years, the other party still remembered.
"I appreciate your concern, Senior Brother." Wu Yuan transmitted a smile.
"Hmph, when we became disciples of Master, although outsiders didn't know, how could we forget it ourselves? Junior Brother, in these years, you haven't achieved anything. What would Master think?" Chang Hong's voice came coldly through the transmission.
Wu Yuan chuckled, too lazy to respond.
"In this sparring trial, I won't hold back," Chang Hong transmitted coldly. "I hope you've made some progress in these years. Do your best, and maybe you can hold on a few moves."
"Got it," Wu Yuan responded with a smile. "I'll listen to Senior Brother and do my best."
Only then did Chang Hong nod in satisfaction.
...The distances between the major Original Witch Realms were very close. Through the teleportation array, the group quickly arrived at the First Original Witch Realm.
In the First Original Witch Realm, all those who cultivated and lived here were Upper Witches and Upper Immortals.
Therefore, the witch fighting arena here was particularly large, and each battle space was vast, spanning millions of miles, for Upper Witches and Upper Immortals to fight.
"You members of the Hall of Law Enforcement don't need to go in."
"Tianwu has ordered Wu Yuan and Chang Hong to go in." Outside the most central witch fighting arena, two Upper Witches of the Sixth Tribulation stopped Upper Witch Ju Hai and his group.
"Yes." Although Upper Witch Ju Hai and the others felt puzzled, they could only watch as Wu Yuan and Chang Hong entered the battle space.
This also made Wu Yuan and Chang Hong feel a bit puzzled.
Through the corridor.
The two entered the interior of the battle space, which was completely covered by invisible formations, completely sealed off from the outside world, preventing anyone from spying.
What surprised Wu Yuan and Chang Hong was that on one side of the battle space stood two figures.
One was a burly man in black armor, with a dominant aura, unrivaled in strength.
The other was a young man in a white robe, smiling gracefully like jade.
"Senior Qu Xing?"
"Senior Brother Jiang Huan?" Wu Yuan and Chang Hong were both surprised. They didn't expect it to be these two waiting here.
Then, Wu Yuan and Chang Hong both saluted.
"You're here." Senior Qu Xing smiled, his gaze sweeping over the two. "Wu Yuan, it's been hundreds of years, and you've already become an Earth Witch in the blink of an eye. Not bad."
"Senior's praise is excessive." Wu Yuan smiled.
It was Senior Qu Xing who had brought him to the Witch Realm back then, and their relationship was still quite good.
"Alright, now that you're both here and there are no outsiders, I'll get straight to the point." Senior Qu Xing said solemnly, "By order of the Sovereign, Wu Yuan, in this battle for your return to the Second Original Witch Realm, you will spar with Chang Hong."
"If you fail, Wu Yuan, you will have to go to the Witch Battlefield for training until you become a Ninth-Rank Warrior before you can return to the Second Original Witch Realm."
"Yes," Wu Yuan realized suddenly, it was Master's command.
Just a moment ago, Wu Yuan was wondering how it was such a coincidence to encounter Senior Brother Chang Hong among the millions of members in the Second Original Witch Realm.
Chang Hong nodded as well.
"Two junior brothers, I'm just here to observe," Jiang Huan smiled. "You two are here to spar, stop when it's appropriate... Wu Yuan, even if you lose this battle, don't be discouraged. It's just some training from Master."
"Got it," Wu Yuan nodded.
In reality, he was pondering Senior Qu Xing's words, silently thinking, "Although Master doesn't know my exact strength, he knows I've condensed the true meaning of the Great Dao, yet he specifically named Chang Hong as my opponent... Hmm, I understand."
"Is he trying to use me to temper Senior Brother Chang Hong?"
"Alright, then I'll try my best not to hold back," Wu Yuan thought he understood Master's intentions and had made up his mind.
...
Above the battle space.
Boom! Boom! Wu Yuan and Chang Hong turned into two streams of light, shooting into the sky, then facing each other tens of thousands of miles apart.
Senior Qu Xing and Jiang Huan stood on one side of the void, overlooking the two.
They were a Space Star Lord and possessed the power of a Star Lord, so they naturally didn't care about the aftermath of the battle between the two Earth Witches.
"Listen up, do your best in the exchange. If I see that the outcome is clear, I will stop you," Senior Qu Xing's voice rang in their ears. "At the same time, using items like talismans or treasures is not allowed."
As a Space Star Lord, supervising the duel between the two Earth Witches was naturally easy for him.
"Begin," Senior Qu Xing ordered.
Invisible fluctuations swept through, and the entire battle space seemed to quiet down. Wu Yuan and Chang Hong looked at each other.
"Junior Brother, take my move."
Chang Hong moved instantly. With one step, he turned into a towering figure with nine arms, each wielding a divine sword. A powerful aura erupted, his gaze completely locked onto Wu Yuan, his eyes cold.
As soon as he made a move, he went all out.
"Senior Brother Chang Hong, is he a Second-Rank Root?" Wu Yuan roughly sensed Chang Hong's life aura.
To become an Earth Witch, at least a Fifth-Rank Root was required.
Second-Rank Root was considered top-notch among Earth Witches, and it was also the standard for most peerless geniuses.
First-Rank Root? Even among Upper Witches and Upper Immortals, it was extremely rare.
After all, to become a Sovereign, one had to comprehend a higher-level law, and the foundation must be a First-Rank Root.
The higher-level law was the most powerful rule under the operation of the heavens and earth!
First-Rank Root was also the most perfect foundation under the operation of the heavens and earth.
"A Second-Rank Root Earth Witch at the Ninth Level, in terms of source force power, isn't much stronger than me," Wu Yuan thought to himself.
Although he was only a Second-Level Earth Witch, he actually had an Extreme Realm Root, which far surpassed a First-Rank Root, not to mention comparing with a Second-Rank Root.
"No need to use Sacred Prohibitions or Source Techniques, and no need to summon Xiao Hei," Wu Yuan said as he flipped his palm.
A lower-grade Immortal Tool battle blade appeared in his palm.
For a Body Refiner, in terms of instantaneous eruption at the same cultivation level, they were far superior to Qi Refiners. This relied on the eruption of their own soul beasts and the source techniques of Heavenly Rank.
Especially after advancing to the Extreme Realm Root, Wu Yuan's own soul beast, Teng She, had also undergone some changes, becoming even more terrifying.
Seeing Wu Yuan standing still and only taking out a Immortal Tool battle blade.
"Hmm?" Senior Qu Xing felt slightly surprised.
"Not using Source Techniques? What is Junior Brother thinking? His source power cultivation is already at an absolute disadvantage, is he giving up directly?" Jiang Huan was equally puzzled.
They both didn't understand Wu Yuan's thoughts.
Boom!
Separated by tens of thousands of miles, for Chang Hong who was bursting with full force, crossing this distance in less than a second was nothing. His speed was so fast that it made the space tremble.
Suddenly, countless earth-yellow lights appeared around him, it was the Stellar Domain.
The Stellar Domain instantly enveloped an area of tens of thousands of miles, including Wu Yuan.
His eyes were icy, "Junior Brother, you disappoint me too much. Even in a battle destined to fail, you should still go all out."
"I won't hold back against you."
Hoo!
He swiftly approached Wu Yuan, followed by the swing of his nine arms and nine swords, exuding a strong killing intent, completely enveloping Wu Yuan.
He intended to defeat Wu Yuan directly.
Chang Hong was quite disappointed, but his temperament meant he wouldn't hold back. If Wu Yuan couldn't even block one of his moves, he wouldn't hold back either.
But in the next instant...
"What?" Chang Hong's pupils contracted slightly, a hint of disbelief flashing through his eyes.
A dazzling cyan blade light suddenly lit up in the battle space!
Like exploding stars.
Like the everlasting mountains.
Seemingly containing the vastness of the heavens and earth, it conveyed the profoundness of infinite Dao, demonstrating unmatched blade technique power.
"This kind of Dao fluctuation?" Senior Qu Xing was shocked.
"What? Junior Brother?" Jiang Huan was shocked.
One side went all out, with nine swords striking together, seeming to dominate the world of swords.
The other side, however, just swung a simple, ancient battle blade in his hand.
With just one slash!
Seemingly the simplest move, but it made Chang Hong's heart tremble. He felt waves of dense death aura enveloping him.
The two sides collided instantly, Chang Hong's full-force attack and so-called ultimate move, in the face of this blade light, seemed as fragile as dry wood, directly crushed and sent flying.
"Boom!"
"Bang~"
Under the terrifying power of the blade light, all nine divine swords in Chang Hong's hands were forcefully knocked away, followed by the fierce blade light sweeping towards him.
Sending him flying backwards.
The terrifying shockwave, despite being weakened by battle armor and defensive source techniques, had already been greatly diminished, with the residual power penetrating into his body.
"Boom~" Like a giant rock unable to withstand heavy pressure, Chang Hong's body burst apart.
Nearly completely collapsing.
One move, the outcome was clear, victory and defeat had been decided.
Clearly, it was not a fight of the same level.
The entire battle space seemed to become silent, with only the two spectators, Senior Qu Xing and Jiang Huan, looking shocked at the scene.
Unable to help but look at Wu Yuan!
The scene before them surpassed their imagination.
If Wu Yuan had barely won, they would have been surprised but wouldn't find it too unbelievable. After all, in the history of the Great Realm, there had been many geniuses who, after practicing for hundreds of years, had gained insights into the Dao at the level of Heavenly Immortals.
But!
With just one slash, Wu Yuan defeated Chang Hong, a crushing victory even without going all out or using Source Techniques.
If he had gone all out, he probably could have killed Chang Hong with just one slash.
What kind of strength was this?
"Amazing!"
Senior Qu Xing showed a hint of smile, couldn't help but sigh, "In our witch world, we've finally produced another genius on par with Ming Jian."
"This kind of blade technique is probably already at the level of Heavenly Immortal Ninth Stage. Junior Brother, remarkable." Jiang Huan was equally impressed.
They both had very keen eyes.
They roughly deduced the profoundness of the blade technique displayed by Wu Yuan.
...
"Splash~"
They only saw Chang Hong's torn body quickly regenerating, but his life force had greatly declined, exceeding seventy percent.
It could be said that if Wu Yuan had just used his Source Techniques and summoned his familiar.
In all likelihood, one slash would have killed Chang Hong.
"This?"
"How is this possible!" Chang Hong looked at Wu Yuan in disbelief. He had already exerted all his strength just now.
But he was still defeated by one slash.
Thinking back to his words and actions earlier, Chang Hong's face turned red and white alternately, as if he wanted to find a hole to hide in.
Where did he not understand? Wu Yuan seemed careless, but it was indeed because he didn't value this battle.
But not because he was weak, but because he was too strong.
Strong enough to ignore Chang Hong.
"Senior Brother Chang Hong, you are too kind." Wu Yuan clasped his hands and smiled, without any mockery.
It was as if it was just a normal sparring match.
In fact, in Wu Yuan's eyes, this battle was indeed just a sparring match.
"Junior Brother... I admire you!"
Chang Hong's eyes were complicated. After a moment of silence, he sighed, "I lost, I am far inferior to you."
Although he felt lost in his heart, his pride did not allow him to refuse to admit his failure.
He lost, that's it.
Wu Yuan's blade technique was not at all cunning; it directly overwhelmed him with absolute power!
He admitted defeat willingly.
Hoo!
Hoo!
Not far away, Senior Qu Xing and Jiang Huan flew over.
Both Wu Yuan and Chang Hong couldn't help but look over.
"Senior Brother Chang Hong, victory and defeat are common in warfare. Junior Brother's talent is extraordinary. Not to mention you, even I find it incredible." Jiang Huan smiled, "With Junior Brother's cultivation speed, I'm afraid he will surpass me within ten thousand years."
"Surpass you within ten thousand years, Senior Brother?"
Chang Hong became even more shocked: "Senior Brother, you have comprehended the Dao of Stars and are currently contemplating the Law of Life."
"Mmm."
Jiang Huan nodded, his gaze falling on Wu Yuan: "Junior Brother, if I'm not mistaken, your current insight into the Dao is probably just one step away from the level of a Star Lord."
"Senior Brother has sharp eyes." Wu Yuan nodded.
The blade technique he displayed was indeed at the level of Heavenly Immortal Ninth Stage.
From the Ninth Stage of Heavenly Immortal to the level of Star Lord, it seemed to be just one step away.
In reality, it was a world of difference.
Among tens of thousands of Star Lords, it was difficult to produce even one Star Lord, showing the difficulty of taking this step.
Wu Yuan didn't want to appear too exaggerated; there was no need for it. It was already quite exaggerated now. If he were to reveal his insights into the Dao at the level of Star Lord, it would be too monstrous.
"Haha, well, what an exciting battle."
"The Sovereign specifically named Chang Hong for this, it seems the Sovereign already knew about Wu Yuan's strength." Qu Xing, who was beside them, smiled, "Hmm... I thought the Sovereign wanted to temper Wu Yuan."
"Chang Hong."
"In fact, the Sovereign wanted to temper your character." Qu Xing looked at Chang Hong.
"Mmm, I disappointed Master." Chang Hong nodded calmly. After this dismal defeat, he became much more sober.
"Wu Yuan."
Qu Xing looked at Wu Yuan, "Truly a monstrous talent. I thought Jiang Huan's talent was already quite good, but I didn't expect you to be ten or even a hundred times more monstrous. Looking at the entire history of the Great Realm, you are enough to leave your mark."
"Even compared to Ming Jian of the Eternal Sun Immortal Realm, you probably surpass him by a lot." Qu Xing sincerely said.
"Ming Jian?" Wu Yuan was slightly startled.
Chang Hong was also taken aback.
"It seems you both don't know. Ming Jian of the Eternal Sun Immortal Realm is said to be cultivating in a distant sacred place, practicing both time and space, extremely monstrous." Jiang Huan smiled, "Now it seems, Junior Brother, you are much more formidable than him."
Wu Yuan was speechless.
"My talent is nothing special." Wu Yuan shook his head, "In the endless river of time and space, there are many who are stronger than me."
"Haha, the river is endless, time is infinite, and there have been countless geniuses born." Qu Xing laughed, "But at least, in the entire history of the witch world, you can be called the number one genius."
Wu Yuan shook his head with a wry smile and stopped arguing.
Jiang Huan smiled as he listened, seeming not to care about such titles.
But Chang Hong, in a daze, seemed lost in thought, pondering something.
"Alright, the Sovereign has ordered that news of this battle must be kept secret and not leaked to the outside world." Qu Xing said, "Chang Hong, Jiang Huan, you must also keep it confidential. If the news leaks out, the Thunder Feather Temple will probably target Wu Yuan with all its might."
"Understood." Jiang Huan solemnly nodded.
"Yes." Chang Hong also nodded solemnly. Although he cared about fame and fortune, he was clear about such matters of right and wrong.
"Star Lord, Senior Brother Chang Hong and I will go back first." Jiang Huan smiled, "You can give Junior Brother further instructions."
Qu Xing nodded.
"Junior Brother, with your insight into the Dao, strive to cultivate to the Ninth Stage of Earth Witch as soon as possible, and then step into the level of Upper Witch. At that time, our senior brothers will have a good match." Jiang Huan smiled.
"I look forward to sparring with Senior Brother." Wu Yuan smiled, "Farewell, Senior Brothers."
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Jiang Huan and Chang Hong quickly departed.
...Walking out of the battle space, walking in the corridors of the Witch Fighting Platform.
"Senior Brother, I disappointed you." Chang Hong couldn't help but say.
"Disappointed?"
"What's there to be disappointed about? You've already comprehended the second level of the Dao of Stars, and your cultivation speed is fast." Jiang Huan smiled faintly, "With Junior Brother's strength, it's normal to lose. In tens of thousands of years, I won't be Junior Brother's opponent either."
Chang Hong fell silent.
After a while.
"Senior Brother, don't you have any thoughts?" Chang Hong couldn't help asking.
"No." Jiang Huan smiled, "I understand what you mean. Junior Brother's talent is extraordinary. When you first entered the master's door, it wasn't fully revealed, but now it's truly blossoming... But having high talent doesn't necessarily mean you'll go far."
"Or rather, even if he goes far, it won't affect us."
"Whether he becomes a Star Lord, a Sovereign, or even a legendary supreme being, I will only be happy for Junior Brother." Jiang Huan looked at Chang Hong, "In our cultivation, what matters is not comparing with others, but surpassing ourselves constantly."
"If we talk about talent."
"That Zhuo Haiyue is even more outrageous than Junior Brother and Ming Jian. According to what the master said, he might become a Sovereign in tens of thousands of years... But so what?"
"As long as we keep improving, millions of years later, we also have the chance to become Sovereigns." Jiang Huan shook his head, "Junior Brother, you're mistaken."
"Today's battle."
"It's the master's way of using Junior Brother to awaken you." Jiang Huan said, "Think about it carefully. I'll leave first."
"If you have time, you can come to my place for a visit."
Jiang Huan strode away.
Leaving Chang Hong alone.
"Mistaken?" Chang Hong silently pondered in his heart. Jiang Huan had reminded him of this many times.
But today, it made him sober like never before.
...
"Wu Yuan, you understand many of the important matters of the Second Original Witch Realm." Qu Xing said.
Wu Yuan nodded, "Understood."
"You can continue practicing in the Original Witch Realm as usual. If there's anything inconvenient for you to handle personally, or if you need to find the Sovereign, you can come to me." Qu Xing smiled, "Not to boast, but in the entire witch world, under the Sovereign, there are not many things I can't handle."
Wu Yuan felt emotional in his heart.
Previously, although Lord Qu treated him well, it wasn't to this extent.
It's as if treating a good friend.
Undoubtedly, it's because of the strength he displayed.
In the past, it was because he was the Sovereign's disciple, it was about his status; but now, it's because of his strength and talent.
Not every Sovereign's disciple can become a Star Lord, and even among Star Lords, most are not as good as Lord Qu, who is the Space Star Lord.
However.
The potential that Wu Yuan is showing now is already the potential of a Sovereign. As long as he doesn't fall, in the future, he will at least be the strongest among the Star Lords.
Naturally, the treatment is different.
Relying on the mountain to fall, one's own strength is what truly makes one powerful.
"Star Lord." Thinking of this, Wu Yuan said, "There is indeed a matter that I need to trouble the Star Lord with."
"Oh? Speak." Lord Qu said.
"I have a good friend named Fang Xia, trapped in the Thousand Snake Forbidden Valley of the Mountain Lin Immortal Island... Three Celestials I invited in a row were all rejected." Wu Yuan shook his head, "I originally wanted to meet a few senior brothers, but I'm not familiar with any of them."
"So."
"I'm just being bold and want to ask the Star Lord to make a trip." Wu Yuan smiled.
Under the disciples of Lord Kuishen, apart from the three who have not yet become immortals, there is also a large group of Star Lords.
Wu Yuan's previous plan was to ask a senior brother for help.
But they didn't have much of a relationship.
Not as good as Lord Qu.
"It's a small matter, Mountain Lin Immortal Island?" Lord Qu squinted, "That's the Immortal Island occupied by Shan Yue and Bai Lin, right... I'll go there now. It'll take about half a day to get there. Wu Yuan, you go to the Original Witch Realm's Void Continent first and wait for me."
"I'll definitely give you an account."
"Okay." Wu Yuan nodded.
Shan Yue Star Lord and Bai Lin Star Lord, one is at the eighth level of the Heavenly God, and the other is at the ninth level of the Heavenly Immortal. They are called "little guys."
Only existences like Lord Qu can call them that.
Normally, to ask a Star Lord to make a move or appear once, it would cost at least millions of divine crystals. It's normal for dangerous matters to cost tens to hundreds of billions of divine crystals.
But both sides tacitly didn't mention it.
...
Alone, walking along the corridor of the battle space, heading outside.
"Old Fang? I hope you're still alive." Wu Yuan thought to himself, asking Lord Qu to intervene would be much better than going himself.
If he still can't save him, or if he confirms that Fang Xia has really died.
Then, for now, Wu Yuan can't think of a better way.
Arriving outside the Witch Fighting Platform.
"Wu Yuan, did you win?"
"This."
"You fought with Chang Hong, the Earth Witch, and actually won?" a group of Celestial and Earth Witches saw Wu Yuan come out and gathered around, each one extremely shocked.
Although they didn't see the outcome of the battle.
They received notification from the Cangfeng Witch Realm that Wu Yuan had become a member of the Second Original Witch Realm.
Naturally, it shocked them.
"I didn't win." Wu Yuan shook his head with a smile. "How could I win? I just fought with Chang Hong, the Earth Witch, not to win, but the test only required me to withstand ten moves."
"Oh?"
"I see." They all suddenly realized, and their shock lessened slightly, but soon they couldn't help but look at Wu Yuan.
So, Wu Yuan lasted ten moves against Chang Hong?
Being able to withstand ten moves indicates that their strengths are quite close, but how long has Wu Yuan been practicing? Over seven hundred years!
"In terms of talent."
"Wu Yuan is probably above Chang Hong." This group of Celestial and Earth Witches thought so.
...
Quickly.
News of this battle also spread rapidly in the Five Original Witch Realms, and Chang Hong's reputation was still immense.
"Wu Yuan, is he the guy who won the fifth and fourth rankings of the First Original Witch Realm over six hundred years ago?"
"Haven't seen him in hundreds of years."
"And he lasted ten moves against Chang Hong?"
"What a monster!"
"Amazing, his strength is probably enough to rank among the Earth Tier of the Second Original Witch Realm, and he has only been practicing for a few years?" There was a commotion.
Just revealing this bit of information made countless members of the Original Witch Realm take notice and quickly boosted Wu Yuan's reputation.
...
"Junior Brother, did he actually admit he lost?" Chang Hong also quickly received this news, at first somewhat incredulous.
Then he smiled bitterly and shook his head, "Lost! Completely lost."
He gently closed his eyes and stopped thinking about it.
At this moment, his heart completely calmed down.
...
"Junior Brother, able to endure, with such a mentality not burdened by fame and fortune, it's no wonder he practices so fast." Jiang Huan also received this news and couldn't help but smile.
...
The Thunder Feather Shrine and the Cangfeng Witch Realm have been battling for endless years, paying close attention to the growth of each other's young generation.
And what the Thunder Feather Shrine is most concerned about is the intelligence of the First and Second Original Witch Realms, spending a lot of manpower and resources in this area.
Naturally.
After the 'public news' about Wu Yuan and Chang Hong's battle spread in the Original Witch Realm, it was quickly investigated by the intelligence agencies of the Thunder Feather Shrine.
"Wu Yuan, practicing for over seven hundred years, has become an Earth Witch."
"According to previous intelligence, his talent is extremely high. He was able to withstand Chang Hong, who has been practicing for over seven thousand years, for so long. Is his talent higher than Chang Hong's?"
"Very impressive."
"Focus on this." A large amount of intelligence was summarized in the deep layers of the mysterious starry sky space in the Cangfeng Witch Realm's world.
It was reported to several Star Lords responsible for intelligence.
In the end.
"Jiang Huan, always ranked first in the assassination sequence, remains unchanged. Now, promote Wu Yuan to the second rank in the assassination sequence, and lower the rank of all other people in the sequence." The only Star Lord in the world issued the order: "Do your best to investigate his information."
"Wu Yuan's past, what has he been doing for over six hundred years, where has he been?"
"His hometown situation, his involvement with whom, who he pays attention to, all are key points of focus."
"At the same time, mobilize some celestial and divine pieces within the witch realm, pass on the information to them, and when necessary, even if it means sacrificing the chess pieces of Star Lord level, they must kill him." This Star Lord said so.
"Yes!" Many celestial and divine beings in the world were chilled in their hearts.
They all felt the leader's determination.
Normal celestial-level chess pieces, sacrificed and that's it, after all, a normal celestial can live for up to a billion years at most.
But Star Lords are different. In theory, they can exist eternally. Over the long years, the secrets they can uncover are numerous.
The impact they can make is immense.
It can be said that each Star Lord chess piece implanted in the witch realm is extremely precious, worth as much as a hundred normal Star Lords.
From this.
It can be imagined how much attention their leader pays to Wu Yuan. It should be noted that even Chang Hong, ranked ninth only because he is an Earth Witch, ranks so low.
If Wu Yuan were an Upper Witch like Jiang Huan, he would almost certainly rank first in the assassination sequence.
...
Wu Yuan was unaware of the promotion in the assassination sequence, but it was predictable. Even if he did know, he wouldn't care.
On the path of growth for the strong.
There are countless storms.
Only by facing these storms head-on and overcoming them can one hope to become a superpower in the world and a pillar of the witch realm.
Inside the Second Original Witch Realm.
One of the inconspicuous void continents, compared to the Fourth Original Witch Realm, aside from being much larger, the overall layout is not much different.
Phew!
Wu Yuan walked out of the teleportation array and saw hundreds of figures standing not far away, led by a figure in red clothes, with a charming appearance.
"Cen Jiang!"
Wu Yuan smiled.
"Master." Cen Jiang also smiled. The last time they met in reality was over six hundred years ago.
"Greetings, Master." Many servants also bowed respectfully.
These servants, in addition to the earliest refining realm servants, were also arranged by the recently appointed Star Lord, including nearly a hundred Earth Immortal servants and even more than ten Celestial and Divine servants.
Wu Yuan originally wanted to refuse.
Because these were all treatments that only members of the Second Original Witch Realm's Earth Tier could have, but they were blocked by Later Qu Xingjun's words.
"Earth Tier title? For you, it's just a matter of course. Giving it to you early. These servants are just doing odd jobs. Don't worry too much about them." Later Qu Xingjun said so.
Regarding this.
Although Wu Yuan was somewhat helpless, he no longer delayed, and all chose to accept, resulting in the scene before him.
"All of you listen up."
"From today onwards, everything on the continent will be arranged by Cen Jiang." Wu Yuan ordered directly.
"Yes." Many servants respectfully replied.
... The many servants dispersed, if they had nothing to do, they would each cultivate on their own to reach higher realms.
Wu Yuan and Cen Jiang walked in the sky above the continent.
"Congratulations to the Master for being promoted to the Second Original Witch Realm. Even the Star Lords value the Master so much." Cen Jiang smiled.
"It's nothing." Wu Yuan smiled faintly.
"Master." Cen Jiang followed Wu Yuan, one step behind, unable to help but say, "Among the servants sent by the Star Lords, there are actually several who are Fourth Tribulation Celestials and Fourth Tribulation Divines, much stronger than me."
"Should I really command them, Master?" Cen Jiang looked at Wu Yuan.
Wu Yuan couldn't help but smile.
"Whether Fourth Tribulation Celestials or Sixth Tribulation Celestials, it doesn't make much difference to me." Wu Yuan smiled, "What I value is your loyalty."
Phew!
Wu Yuan waved his hand and handed over a storage treasure, sending it to Cen Jiang in front of him, leaving Cen Jiang stunned.
"This?" Cen Jiang was stunned.
"Take it, you've worked hard for over six hundred years." Wu Yuan smiled. Over the past six hundred years, Xia Shan's world has developed so well, and Cen Jiang's contribution ranks first, which is no exaggeration.
Cen Jiang couldn't help but take it, but when she probed it slightly, she was shocked. She stared at Wu Yuan with wide eyes, "Master, these treasures?"
Inside the storage treasure, there were many secret techniques, as well as many spiritual treasures and immortal artifacts.
Excluding the secret techniques, just the various treasures were worth tens of thousands of divine crystals.
Equivalent to the efforts of many Fourth Tribulation Celestials over hundreds of thousands of years.
"I said, following me, you won't be mistreated." Wu Yuan smiled, "Practice well. Those treasures are just secondary. The secret techniques are what's important... I will arrange more for you in the future and give you more opportunities for enlightenment."
"Your avatar can also venture into various places in the witch realm."
"Work hard, and perhaps you will become an Immortal in the future." Wu Yuan said lightly, "Becoming an Immortal would be of some use to me."
Cen Jiang listened intently.
The last time they met, Wu Yuan said this, and she didn't take it to heart, feeling that hope was too distant.
But now?
She truly felt a glimmer of hope because Wu Yuan's display was too domineering, casually giving her a servant worth tens of thousands of divine crystals.
How many treasures must Wu Yuan have himself?
Just thinking about it made Cen Jiang's heart tremble.
"Master, Cen Jiang will definitely work hard." Cen Jiang said solemnly, feeling a hint of longing in her heart.
Back then, she was captured on the Witch Immortal battlefield and became a slave. She was already disheartened.
Never thought there would be a day of reversal.
"A servant? With the Master's talent, you will at least become a peak Star Lord in the future." Cen Jiang thought to herself, "To become a servant of such a super existence is something that many ordinary Celestials dare not even dream of."
Wu Yuan naturally didn't know Cen Jiang's thoughts.
He thought very simply. Over the past few hundred years, Cen Jiang has proven her loyalty.
Naturally, she must be cultivated well.
Being able to become an Immortal with a small amount of resources, her talent is not bad, and with a large amount of resources bestowed upon her, becoming an Immortal is hopeful.
"Master." Cen Jiang said, "Now that news of your battle with Chang Hong has spread, you have attracted much attention... Be careful of the assassinations from the Lei Yu Temple. Your whereabouts should not be easily exposed."
"Assassinations from the Lei Yu Temple?" Wu Yuan nodded lightly.
He understood this.
Historically, many geniuses in the Witch Realm were killed by the Lei Yu Temple's undercover agents.
Of course, many geniuses from the Lei Yu Temple were also secretly assassinated by the Azure Peak Witch Realm.
With endless killings and accumulations of hatred, it naturally made Wu Yuan vigilant.
"However."
"Before becoming an Upper Witch, I won't go out again." Wu Yuan thought to himself, a hint of anticipation appearing at the corner of his mouth. "I wonder, who will the Lei Yu Temple arrange to assassinate me within the witch realm?"
"Ordinary Celestials?"
"Or Star Lords?" Wu Yuan wasn't worried but rather looking forward to it.
As for Star Lords?
Wu Yuan felt the probability was very low. Unless he completely exposed all his strength, any undercover agent at the Star Lord level would be as valuable to the Lei Yu Temple as a monarch.
They wouldn't easily sacrifice themselves.
At least, in the history of the Azure Peak Witch Realm, there has never been an undercover agent at the Star Lord level exposed for assassinating young talents.
"Master, are you planning to stay on the Void Continent for a long time?" Cen Jiang asked.
"No!"
"I will reside in Xia Shan for a long time." Wu Yuan shook his head.
"Reside in Xia Shan?" Cen Jiang was taken aback.
...
In the Azure Peak Witch Realm.
In the palace of a sovereign plane.
"Master, did you summon me?" Wu Yuan respectfully saluted.
"Yes, it's nothing major." Sovereign Kuachi sat on a jade platform, appearing like an ordinary middle-aged man, and smiled, "You did well in returning to the Original Witch Realm this time. You didn't lose your head. It's good to be cautious."
Wu Yuan nodded.
"I've ordered Bloodshadow Star Lord to provide you with enough 'Crystal Source Essence' to quickly cultivate to the ninth level of Earth Witch." Sovereign Kuachi said.
"Crystal Source Essence?" Wu Yuan's eyes brightened, but then he hesitated and couldn't help but ask, "Master, how many units?"
"Three thousand." Sovereign Kuachi said, "It should be enough, and there's probably more."
"Three thousand?"
Wu Yuan shook his head repeatedly, "Master, it's not enough."
"Not enough?" Now it was Sovereign Kuachi's turn to be puzzled. He asked, "Your Senior Brother Jiang Huan used over two thousand units of Crystal Source Essence to cultivate from the first to the ninth level of Earth Witch. He had the same first-class foundation as you."
"Master, it's really not enough." Wu Yuan shook his head, "My internal mountains and rivers are probably larger than Senior Brother Jiang Huan's."
"Very large." Wu Yuan gestured.
"How much is it approximately?" Sovereign Kuachi frowned slightly.
"Thirty thousand?" Wu Yuan estimated.
"Thirty thousand?" Sovereign Kuachi widened his eyes.
"Thirty thousand!" Wu Yuan nodded heavily.
After a moment of silence.
"Alright, thirty thousand it is." Sovereign Kuachi shook his head and chuckled, "As the Master, I promised you both."
"But once you reach the first level of the Celestial Witch, you will have to rely on yourself. I really can't afford it anymore."
"Understood." Wu Yuan smiled.
"Why is your internal mountains and rivers so vast? Clearly, both of you have a first-class foundation, and even if there are differences, they shouldn't be that significant." Sovereign Kuachi wondered.
"Master, your disciple already has an extreme foundation." Wu Yuan said, "The True Meaning of Creation will transform the Earth Witch foundation into an extreme foundation."
He had thought about this matter for a long time and decided to speak up.
By revealing some secrets, the higher his revealed talent, the more his Master would naturally value him.
"An extreme foundation? You?"
"The True Meaning of Creation will transform the foundation of the Earth Witch and break the shackles of heaven and earth?" Sovereign Kuachi's eyes flashed with shock.
Although he was a sovereign, he was indeed unaware of this intelligence.
After all, throughout the endless years of the river of time, there have been few Earth Witch and Earth Immortal stages who could control the True Meaning of Creation.
"Incredible."
"Disciple."
"Good, hahaha, very good." Sovereign Kuachi's face revealed a smile, "Thirty thousand units of Crystal Source Essence? Haha, even if it's a hundred thousand or a million units, it's worth it!"
"It's worth it!"

Chapter 422 Sovereign Meeting
"Master," Wu Yuan couldn't help but ask, "Is an extreme foundation really that important?"
"Haha, of course it's important. How could a foundation not be important? If it wasn't important, why would it be called a foundation?" Sovereign Kuachi replied with a smile.
His gaze towards Wu Yuan became increasingly gentle and satisfied.
Wu Yuan's growth speed surpassed his imagination, and his potential was terrifyingly vast.
"Before, when I condensed the True Meaning of the Great Dao, although it shocked my Master, it didn't bring him joy to this extent." Wu Yuan was secretly amazed. He knew that an extreme foundation was extremely rare, and over the years, he had learned a lot of information, but ultimately he was not a sovereign and his lifespan was short.
So.
Many secrets were not very clear to him.
"The importance of a foundation doesn't need much explanation," Sovereign Kuachi said with a smile.
"Yes, the foundation is very important," Wu Yuan nodded heavily.
Cultivation is like building a house, and the foundation is like the foundation.
A strong foundation directly translates to stronger mana, and invisibly, it allows a person's spiritual growth, comprehension, and temperament to continuously evolve and strengthen.
For example, the speed of comprehension.
Under normal circumstances, the stronger the foundation, the faster the comprehension speed, although it's not absolute, but it's true in ninety-nine percent of cases.
Having a first-class foundation doesn't necessarily mean faster comprehension than all second-class foundations.
But in ninety-nine percent of second-class foundations, the comprehension is not as good as that of a first-class foundation.
Even if there are occasionally a few extraordinary talents with mediocre foundations, it's only relative to other extraordinary geniuses.
Over the years, Wu Yuan's Qi Refinement Avatar on the Temporal Island has seen many geniuses with comprehension abilities comparable to Chang Hong and Jiang Huan, at least they all had second-class foundations.
Extraordinary geniuses, with second-class foundations at the lowest, are generally second-class foundations.
But in reality, out of billions of cultivators, it's rare to have a third-class foundation.
"Out of millions and billions of third-class foundations, maybe one might have comprehension abilities comparable to a first-class foundation."
"But, if it's only an eighth or ninth-class foundation, throughout the endless river of time, there has never been a foundation that can compare to a first-class foundation." Wu Yuan thought to himself.
The foundation ensures the bottom line!
Just like in history, no first-class foundation cultivator who didn't die prematurely has ever failed to become a Celestial Immortal or Celestial God.
"The foundation, the earlier you break through, the better. The later you want to transform, the greater the cost." Sovereign Kuachi looked at Wu Yuan and said, "If you become a Star Lord, don't even think about transforming your foundation into an extreme foundation, even if you comprehend the nine levels of the Realm of Creation."
"So, your ability to transform now is very good."
Wu Yuan listened.
The nine levels of the Realm of Creation, such comprehension abilities probably belong to extremely strong existences among the sovereigns.
"An extreme foundation?" Sovereign Kuachi pondered, then shook his head and laughed, "I'm afraid you are the first extreme foundation cultivator in my Qingling Great World in history."
"The first?" Wu Yuan couldn't help but be surprised. "Master, aren't you?"
"No!"
"Among the Star Lords, more than ninety percent have second-class foundations, and only about one percent have first-class foundations."
"And the sovereigns, each one has a first-class foundation, and the prerequisite for becoming a sovereign is a first-class foundation." Sovereign Kuachi smiled, "But if we talk about Star Lords still having a slight hope of transforming into extreme foundations, then the difficulty for sovereigns to transform into extreme foundations? It's probably second only to transcendence."
"The difficulty of becoming a ruler is lower than the difficulty of sovereigns transforming into extreme foundations." Sovereign Kuachi said frankly.
Wu Yuan was shocked to hear this.
The difficulty is so high? He finally realized why Sovereign Kuachi was so excited.
Chapter 422 Sovereign Conference
Indeed, it's extremely rare.
"An extreme foundation, in the cultivator stage, the advantages aren't too exaggerated," Sovereign Kuachi shook his head. "The further you go, the greater the advantages."
"For example, when you become a Star Lord in the future, the strength of your source power will be ten times that of a first-class foundation Star Lord, and a hundred times that of a second-class foundation Star Lord."
"The same techniques, but with you, the power can be a hundred times stronger than an ordinary Star Lord."
"An ordinary Star Lord, mastering ordinary Star Lord techniques, is equivalent to the strength of a first-level Star Lord. But for extreme foundation cultivators, mastering ordinary Star Lord techniques can unleash the power of a seventh-level Star Lord."
"Like the Thunder Star Lord you know, he has a first-class foundation, mastering several techniques at the level of sovereigns, but he's only at the quasi-sovereign level." Sovereign Kuachi looked at Wu Yuan. "But if you become a Star Lord in the future, you'll also be able to master sovereign techniques, truly rivaling sovereigns."
"With such strength, you can be called an invincible Star Lord."
Star Lord, rivaling sovereigns?
Wu Yuan listened with bated breath.
This was something he hadn't dared to hope for before, after all, it was too difficult, even in the numerous records on the Temporal Island, it was extremely rare.
In the histories of countless worlds, most cultivators like the Thunder Star Lord could be considered the pinnacle of Star Lords.
Invincible Star Lord?
In the Creation Temple, the Creationists did mention it, but how many had appeared in the vast river of time?
"Only with an extreme foundation is there hope to become an invincible Star Lord, otherwise, the hope is extremely slim," Sovereign Kuachi smiled. "Your comprehension of the Great Dao is difficult to instantly become a sovereign."
"Perhaps you'll be stuck at the Star Lord level for a long time."
"If you ultimately become a sovereign." Sovereign Kuachi's eyes flashed with a glimmer of light. "With an extreme foundation, perhaps you can become a Dominator... Haha, it's too far away, too far away."
Sovereign Kuachi shook his head.
It seemed that he also felt that his speculation was too idealistic.
"Disciple, your foundation is already very good, reaching the extreme in terms of foundation; your comprehension of the Dao has condensed the True Meaning of the Great Dao... What are your thoughts next?" Sovereign Kuachi looked at Wu Yuan.
"My plan."
"Next, the Qi Refinement Avatar will not leave the Witch World until it becomes a Sixth-Level Divine before, the avatar will reside in the Xia Shan," Wu Yuan said. "When it becomes a Sixth-Level Divine and there's no room for further improvement in strength, then I'll go on adventures."
"As for the Qi Refinement Avatar in the Temporal Dao Realm, it's the domain of the Dao Lord, and as long as there are no major forces targeting me, I will continue to hone myself." Wu Yuan laid out his cultivation plan.
The Witch Court and the Immortal Court were constantly at war.
The Qi Refinement Avatar returning from the Immortal Land already had great opportunities and didn't need to attract too much attention from the Immortal Court.
In comparison, the Qi Refinement Avatar would be much safer, even if it experienced some adventures and battles, it would at most encounter some Star Lords.
The level of danger was controllable.
The Temporal Dao Realm was the domain of the Time Dao Lord, and major forces like the Witch Court and the Immortal Court usually wouldn't target talents there.
Even the identity of the Qi Refinement Avatar on the surface was a disciple of the Hengyang Immortal Sect, and there weren't any major hostile forces.
"Well, it's feasible."
Upon hearing this, Sovereign Kuachi nodded. "The consciousness of the two avatars is the same. Your Qi Refinement Avatar's intent to temper the Dao Heart is the same as your Physical Refinement Avatar's tempering."
"The power of faith you mentioned earlier."
"I will arrange it as soon as possible, at least to ensure that you have no worries during the Earth Witch stage." Sovereign Kuachi looked at Wu Yuan.
"Thank you, Master." Wu Yuan expressed his gratitude.
"No need, isn't it the duty of a master to solve his disciple's troubles? I can't guide you much on your cultivation path. If you have any needs, just tell me." Sovereign Kuachi smiled at Wu Yuan. "After you become a Senior Witch, go challenge the Witch God Tower... When you achieve something, I will have another conversation with the Witch Court and try to get a large amount of power of faith for you."
"Conversation with the Witch Court?" Wu Yuan was surprised.
"Genius is unique."
"The faith power of the Witch Court, is it to be used for anyone? Giving it to some useless people won't serve any purpose," Sovereign Kuachi shook his head. "The higher your talent and achievements, the more confident I am when I ask the Witch Court for precious resources."
"Practice well," Sovereign Kuachi encouraged.
"Yes, disciple will do his best," Wu Yuan nodded solemnly, feeling the Master's value for him.
The attitude kept changing.
He thought back to when he first became a disciple and it was difficult to even see the Master, to later frequently asking about his progress and being able to meet at any time.
Then to the sharp rise in the Master's attention when he returned to the Witch World.
Now.
"Sovereign rules the Witch World, with many disciples under him, and countless Star Lords," Wu Yuan thought to himself. "Although there are differences in closeness, when it comes to feelings... as the leader of a power, the Master values the strength and potential of his disciples more."
If the potential is lacking, it would be difficult to even become a Star Lord in the end, naturally not being valued and not having many resources.
For someone like Wu Yuan, who shows terrifying potential, Sovereign Kuachi is also willing to spare no effort in nurturing him.
"You've only been cultivating for a thousand years now."
"Concealed cultivation for tens of thousands of years, at most a few hundred thousand years later, perhaps the Universal Path will open," Sovereign Kuachi smiled. "By then, it will be your opportunity."
"Being in this era is your fortune."
"Or perhaps it's the convergence of the era's luck that led to your rise. It's hard to say whether it's cause or effect," Sovereign Kuachi sighed.
"The Universal Path?" Wu Yuan's pupils contracted slightly.
This was the second time he heard of it, the last time was when the Qi Refinement Avatar heard about it from Sovereign Lan Yan.
"The information about the Universal Path has already been sent to your personal palace, you can read it by yourself when you go back," Sovereign Kuachi smiled. "Anyway, there's still a long time, no need to rush, just understand a little bit for now."
"Okay," Wu Yuan respectfully said.
...
On that day.
In the Azure Peak Witch Realm, in an extremely mysterious plane, the entire plane was empty and vast.
Only in the void was there a temple, inside which were six floating black thrones, as if the temple was eternal.
Today, on four of the six black thrones, figures appeared on each throne, each exuding a vast and powerful aura.
Among them, one figure wearing beast skins was Sovereign Kuachi.
However, the one sitting on the main throne was not him, but a figure in a black robe, like a demon god, with a faintly violent aura.
"Well, it's just us few."
The man in the black robe swept his gaze over the others. "Xuan Qing and the others are far away at the headquarters of the Witch Court and won't participate in the Witch World conference this time. Today, we'll decide."
"The matter brought up by Kuachi this time, hoping to allocate a portion of the Witch Nation's unit faith power specifically to Wu Yuan."
"Many of the information about Wu Yuan, I believe everyone has read. Everyone, please think about it and express your opinions."
Sovereign Kuachi remained silent.
The other two vast auras of the super existence glanced at each other.
"I've read the information about Wu Yuan. Indeed, his talent is astonishing," said the figure in the green robe sitting on one side indifferently. "But, most of the faith power in the Witch World is collected by the Witch Court."
"How much of the freely distributable faith power do we have in our hands?"
"Let alone a unit of the Witch Nation, even if it's the faith power of a hundred Witch Continents, it's all very important. Many Star Lords are stuck in the final step, perhaps just lacking a bit of faith power. After expending a few more years, they might be able to break through."
"Do we need faith power?"
"Allocating the faith power of a few Witch Continents is possible, but if he wants to occupy it for a long time, he has to rely on himself to fight for it." The figure in the green robe shook his head. "This time, I disagree."
Sovereign Kuachi frowned slightly but didn't speak.
Because what the other party said made sense. How many Star Lords are there in the entire Witch World? Thousands. Who doesn't desire faith power?
It can be said.
This big cake has long been divided up.
At present, if they have no objections to directly taking away a unit of the Witch Nation's faith power for Wu Yuan, that would be strange.
"Haha, I'm not disagreeing either."
Another chubby old man smiled. "It's just that such a huge reward is much more precious than even a middle-grade Dao artifact. Shouldn't we be more cautious and cultivate the younger generation step by step?"
"Wu Yuan, though a monstrous talent, has only been cultivating for a few hundred years and has just become a Earth Witch recently. It's still early for everything."
"I suggest distributing the faith power of a hundred Witch Continents first. More? Let Wu Yuan continue to perform, and then try to obtain more from the Witch Court." The chubby old man said.
His words obviously didn't offend anyone.
"Kuachi, what about you?"
The man in the black robe looked at Sovereign Kuachi. "Do you have anything else to add?"
"To take out the freely distributable faith power of a unit of the Witch Nation is indeed difficult. Not only will many Star Lords have to greatly reduce their faith power, but even we few will also be affected." Sovereign Kuachi glanced at the others and smiled. "However, I have my reasons for making such a request. Let me add one thing."
Pausing for a moment.
Sovereign Kuachi said word by word, "Wu Yuan has a Supreme Realm foundation."
Wow!
The other three figures in the temple looked at Sovereign Kuachi at the same time.
"Supreme Realm foundation?"
"How is that possible? Impossible!"
"He's just an Earth Witch, how could it be? No matter how high his comprehension of the Dao is, it's impossible for such an astonishing transformation."
"Could there be any special encounters?" The three super existences were all shocked. They had never seen such a monstrous talent in their long years.
Earth Witch, Supreme Realm foundation?
Even in the endless history of the Witch Court, they had never heard of a few, perhaps there were some, but most of them were kept secret.
The news wouldn't be made public.
"Kuachi, are you sure?" The man in the black robe said in a low voice.
"Yes." Sovereign Kuachi nodded.
In fact, he wasn't completely sure, but he believed that Wu Yuan wouldn't deceive him.
Deceiving on such matters wouldn't make much sense and would eventually be exposed.
"Alright, everyone, since Kuachi says so, it should be true." The leader of the black robe said. "The significance of a Supreme Realm foundation, I believe you all understand, and Wu Yuan's talent and comprehension, I don't need to explain further."
"So I've decided, now, to carry out three levels of bestowal."
"The first is the faith power of a unit of the Witch Nation."
"The second is the faith power of five hundred Witch Continents."
"The third is the faith power of a hundred Witch Continents." The man in the black robe glanced at the three people. "Make your choices."
Sovereign Kuachi remained silent, he had already made his choice long ago.
Moreover.
