Chapter 123: Setting Off for the Everflowing Truth Central Domain
The legacy statue of Chu Xingming continued to speak, its voice resonating with ancient wisdom, "Now that you’re aware of my background and the reasons for founding the Starry Abyss Sect, if you’re aiming to become part of the Purple Heaven Holy Land, this legacy statue can act as your gateway.
It has the ability to teleport you straight to the Purple Heaven Holy Land, situated right at the heart of the Everflowing Truth Central Domain."
"The prestige and influence of the Purple Heaven Holy Land surpass anything you’ve encountered before. It’s a rich repository filled with innumerable cultivation techniques, martial skills, secret arts, and a wealth of resources for cultivation."
"Take, for example, the Purple Heaven Dark Star Heavenly Scripture, the fundamental cultivation technique of the Purple Heaven Holy Land. It can be cultivated up to the Dao Palace realm, which represents the pinnacle of the Second Step on the Cultivation Path.
In comparison, the Starry Abyss Heavenly Scripture you find here is essentially a simplified version, limited to advancing only up to the Heavenly Origin realm."
"Choosing the path of the Purple Heaven Holy Land means your journey will be free from regret." The statue’s words were heavy with promise, assuring a future without any remorse.
At this moment, as Jiang Chen absorbed Chu Xingming’s resonant voice, he caught himself scratching his head, amused. The thought struck him humorously, ’Isn’t this Chu Xingming starting to sound a lot like one of those recruitment officers I’ve met before?’ A smirk played on his lips at the ridiculousness of the comparison.
Yet, the offer to join the Purple Heaven Holy Land was irresistibly tempting for Jiang Chen. The attraction of gaining access to the Purple Heaven Dark Star Heavenly Scripture was significant enough to sway his decision.
After all, switching to this premier cultivation technique of the Dao Palace rank offered a pathway that was clearly more stable and secure than the precarious Four Knows Nine Royals True Canon. It assured that he would be in his best form for the looming confrontation with the new protagonist.
Reflecting on his situation, Jiang Chen felt thankful for his previous restraint, for resisting the urge to hastily embark on the practice of the Four Knows Nine Royals True Canon.
Just then, a deep rumbling sound filled the air as Chu Xingming’s legacy statue stirred, its stone form shifting with a grinding sound. The faint echoes of ancient mechanisms coming to life reverberated from within the statue.
As the stone figure moved, it unveiled a small square recess at its base. "This is the energy infusion socket for the teleportation array," the statue intoned solemnly.
"By placing the right amount of spirit stones at each node of the formation and directing your Heavenly Origin Power into this socket," it went on, "you can activate the teleportation gateway to the Everflowing Truth Central Domain."@@@@
"Be cautious," the statue cautioned, its voice serious, "only individuals at the Heavenly Origin realm can safely pass through this gateway. Anyone of lesser strength will face certain death." The warning resonated ominously.
A soft hum signaled the teleportation array coming to life.
At first, lights sparkled from each node, creating a captivating glow. Then, the lights flowed smoothly, tracing the complex pathways of the array in a meticulous sequence, all merging at the center.
Almost instantly, the teleportation formation was fully energized. A dazzling white beam of light shot up into the sky, its overwhelming power dominating the surrounding space.
Sect Master Feng Jun, witnessing the entire event, had to shield his eyes with his hand due to the intense brightness. Even with his level of cultivation, staring directly was challenging.
It was only after the light began to diminish and normalcy returned to the Ancestral Hall that he finally lowered his hand to observe the aftermath.
By now, Jiang Chen, who had stood at the formation’s heart, was gone, leaving Chu Xingming’s legacy statue back in its original place.
Feng Jun gave a respectful bow towards the statue, his hands clasped in front of him, then cast a final glance at the teleportation array. Turning, he exited, pulling the heavy doors shut behind him.
Silence quickly reclaimed the Ancestral Hall.
...
Meanwhile, Jiang Chen, who had already left the Everflowing Truth Northern Domain, found himself caught in an endless tunnel of brilliant light. Various colors swirled around him at breakneck speed, forming a surreal display.
His whole body faced immense pressure and intense forces. Only his remarkable physical toughness, a gift from reaching the Heavenly Origin realm, allowed him to endure this constant barrage. Without this resilience, anyone else would have been instantly turned to dust.
Within the glowing corridor, Jiang Chen’s sense of time blurred; moments felt indistinct—either stretching for eternity or flashing by in an instant.
Suddenly, a burst of light far more intense than anything he had seen before exploded from the seemingly infinite tunnel ahead of him.
In the next moment, Jiang Chen experienced a slight shiver ripple through him as the solid feel of ground formed under his feet.
Around him, the blinding glow quickly changed into a normal landscape.
