Chapter 987: Chapter 125: Liuli is Out, Luo Yan is Frustrated (Combined)
In the universe near the Cultivation Realm, it can roughly be divided into six regions based on distance, known as the Sixth Heaven.
The demon heads of the First Layer of Heaven are the weakest, but they are nurous and diverse, such as Fudanna, Gandharva, Yaksha, and many others. They can transform into handso n and beautiful won, but their true bodies are often bizarre and grotesque.
Luo Yan and Shi Liuli, using Ah Jing’s Illusion Technique, made their way to the vicinity of the third star without incident.
However, this star is not a burning ball of fire, but a massive floating teorite, about the size of the Heavenly Sphere where the Cultivation Realm is located.
“If we can make a hole here and burrow inside, maybe we can wait out the trial of the secret realm,” said Shi Liuli, tossing a copper coin and quickly casting a hexagram.
The hexagram still showed great misfortune. Shi Liuli looked at it silently for a mont and said without a change in expression:
“I don’t know how these Heavenly Demons detected our presence, but with the previous Illusion Technique, there shouldn’t be any problem, right?”
Luo Yan: …
The Kunlun Mirror’s Illusion Technique is a sensitive topic, and he didn’t want to say much about it, only saying:
“With my Five Elents Divine Light, even if we are discovered by the Heavenly Demons inside the teorite, escaping would be an easy task.”
“That makes sense.” Shi Liuli nodded in agreent.
If an ordinary cultivator were to hide deep within the teorite and get detected by the Heavenly Demons, they would imdiately find themselves trapped like fish in a barrel.
But with Luo Yan’s Five Elents Divine Light, breaching the earth and mountains is as easy as pie, allowing him to utilize the complex structure within the teorite to delay the pursuit of the Heavenly Demons.
So the two of them burrowed into the teorite, with Luo Yan leading the way.
The Five-colored Divine Light rapidly flowed in his hand, creating a narrow passage ahead for the two to stoop and enter, while sealing the space behind them with soil, turning it back into a cold rock.
“Husband, this Secret Technique is really useful,” Shi Liuli praised, “In a sense, it’s getting close to the realm of the Dao, isn’t it?”
“There’s still a long way to go,” Luo Yan said modestly, “It still can’t handle things outside of the Five Elents… Huh?”
The Five Elents Divine Light bore through the rock wall ahead, revealing an opening.
Shi Liuli exclaid and found that inside was not a natural cave, but a man-made structure—obvious marks of Flying Sword polishing and cutting were visible on the walls around.
She casually tossed a copper coin, cast a hexagram, chose a direction, and headed towards the depths of the teorite.
Luo Yan followed behind her, sealing the path they ca from and scanning ahead vigilantly.
This was just a simulation of a secret realm, so there wouldn’t be too many details, but… considering the matter of the Kunlun Fenbao Rock and the Heavenly Gate Peak secret realm, could it be assud that these secret realms are likely extracted from that elder’s mories?
The Heavenly Gate Peak secret realm was the cave residence where the elder once lived, so corresponding scenes were constructed within the secret realm.
In contrast, other places in the Cultivation Realm were almost bare terrains subrged by seawater and stars, possibly because the elder had no special impressions of most places in the Divine Land.
Thinking of this, Luo Yan suddenly realized, since there were passages built inside the teorite, could it be because the elder once visited here?
What was he planning to do by going inside a teorite?
The two of them traversed a long corridor and saw in front of them a larger chamber.
The chamber had furniture necessary for Immortal cultivation such as tables, chairs, bed, cabinets, all fully equipped, yet each was bare, with nothing placed on them.
“It seems soone has lived here,” Shi Liuli said lightly.
“And quite a few people at that,” Luo Yan counted the number of beds, “Eight people.”
“Why would so many people go beyond the Heavenly Do?” Shi Liuli frowned.
“It must be for Ascension,” Luo Yan mused.
“Ascension?”
So Luo Yan explained the matter of Ascension to Shi Liuli in detail.
“I see,” Shi Liuli also sighed, “I thought after Ascension, one would directly reach the Immortal Realm.”
“It’s not that easy,” Luo Yan shook his head, “The Ascension Force only pulls you away from the Heavenly Sphere’s barrier; to reach the Immortal Realm, you have to cross the distant, layer upon layer of heavenly rivers.”
“Along the way, not only must you overco the bone-chilling cold of the heavenly rivers, but you must also withstand the endless barrage of Heavenly Demons’ assaults, which is a trendous drain on both your spirit and True Yuan—thinking of burrowing into this rock for a brief respite is truly ingenious.”
Shi Liuli was silent for a mont, then suddenly cried out:
“Not good!”
“What is it?” Luo Yan asked in surprise.
“The fact that the teorite can be used as a resting spot by Human ascendants, could that be so kind of secret?” Shi Liuli quickly asked.
“I don’t think so,” Luo Yan pondered and said, “On the path to Ascension, with depleted True Yuan and harassnt by Heavenly Demons, seeing a large rock nearby, it’s not normal not to think of tunneling in to hide.”
“That’s exactly it,” Shi Liuli said gravely, “If Human cultivators could think of that, couldn’t Heavenly Demons?”
Luo Yan realized the issue as soon as she pointed it out.
If past Human cultivators never dug into teorites to avoid battles, then naturally Heavenly Demons wouldn’t have co here to dig for no reason.
But now with stone-carved furniture like tables, chairs, and beds present, it proves that Human cultivators have indeed taken refuge here—could the Heavenly Demons perpetually hunting Human cultivators be unaware?
This place is not safe!
Luo Yan hurriedly extended his distance, rapidly scanning a larger surrounding area, and indeed discovered a demon head rushing swiftly towards here from afar.
That demon head was shrouded in a black mist, with a graceful body faintly visible within, obviously not an ordinary being.
