At this moment, above the horizon, a streak of light flashed across the sky, as if it had surged through the void, moving incredibly fast.
Soaring Over Void was a powerful speed-based technique, which, once executed, merged the body with the void, granting extraordinary speed that seemed akin to teleportation.
“One day, I will soar up, unrestricted, and ascend ninety thousand li without fear of anything, free to rove the skies at will!” Gu Chen’s eyes sparkled with anticipation for the day when he would walk the world in his true form.
Though avatars had their benefits, for various reasons, there were myriad considerations when traversing the world, which made him feel somewhat constrained.
While searching for his family, Gu Chen also needed to temper himself, seeking every opportunity to grasp the fortunes that came his way, seizing the chance to become stronger!
Gu Chen believed that day was not far off; he had that confidence!
Whoosh!
He transformed into a rainbow that streaked across the horizon, and after several days of travel, he finally arrived at the capital of Meteor State.
Meteor State was truly vast.
Xuan Yi Sect’s power within Meteor State was not weak, belonging to a force at the level of a great sect and not far from the capital, yet even so, it had taken Gu Chen several days to journey there.
If this were in the Jiu Zhou, in that span of time, he could have circled the entire realm several times over.
“This world is indeed staggeringly large.” After experiencing it firsthand, Gu Chen could not help but marvel.
Hearing about it was one thing; personally experiencing it was another.
If just one state was like this, he dared not imagine the distances between states and between domains.
Gu Chen had only heard that traveling from one state to another without a transmission array, even as a cultivator flying on one’s own, would take a considerably long time.
To cross an entire domain on one’s own, even the mighty figures of the Upper Realms, the so-called Saint Lords, would find it impossible!
Without relying on a transmission array, attempting to traverse the boundless territories on one’s own would leave anyone dizzy.
Upon reaching the state capital, there was a sizable queue for the transmission array, and not far away, the cost of transmission was clearly marked on a plaque.
Having prepared in advance, after about an hour’s time, it was finally Gu Chen’s turn.
After a certain amount of spirit stones were handed over and under the watch of the guards, Gu Chen and a large group of people stepped into the ancient and profound central array.
Accompanied by a flash of light, they crossed the void, leaving the place.
This time, thanks to the state capital’s grand array, he directly left Meteor State and arrived at the neighboring large state.
A sense of distortion came over him, but Gu Chen was accustomed to it; not to mention he had experienced crossing realms before.
Soon another flash of light arrived, and he appeared in another vast state.
“Formation masters really do make a fortune,” Gu Chen clicked his tongue in amazement.
Once a transmission array was set up, each use would bring the formation masters a considerable income.
It could also be said that, as long as one was a formation master, they were guaranteed to be wealthy.
In terms of individual wealth, they were absolutely among the top echelon.
Of course, even in the Upper Realms, such a vast and boundless world, the number of formation masters was limited because this path was exceedingly difficult.
“Still, it’s because my cultivation is not strong enough.
Otherwise, I wouldn’t need a transmission array; I could traverse the boundless void with the Yu Ding.” Gu Chen murmured softly.
The Yu Ding, upon acquiring spatial power, inherently possessed such an ability.
However, due to the lack of strength of Gu Chen, its controller, many of its wondrous aspects could not be displayed.
After all, no matter how transcendent the treasure may be, it still requires sufficient support to manifest its mighty powers.
Subsequently, after undergoing numerous teleportations and nearly depleting hundreds of spirit stones, Gu Chen finally arrived at his destination—Han State!
The weather in this state is cold all year round, with some areas constantly swept by heavy snow, existing in an era of extreme cold.
The strongest power in this state is the Frost Soul Sect, whose fame is not only widespread in Han State but throughout the entire realm.
They once stood shoulder to shoulder with the Heavenly Mysterious Imperial Dynasty as a colossus!
However, several years ago, the old ancestor within the Frost Soul Sect, who was also a supreme existence, met his end, leading to a significant decline in the sect’s status.
Fortunately, the middle and younger generations of the Frost Soul Sect proved to be impressive in recent years, with strong individuals emerging continuously, ensuring that the sect retained most of its interests even after the fall of their mightiest.
Upon arriving in Han State, perhaps because the Frost Soul Sect was indeed well-known, Gu Chen immediately heard many discussions.
“Han State has been anything but peaceful lately.
It’s said that the Frost Soul Sect has clashed with Night Spirit Valley and Wind Gate again!”
“What’s so surprising about that?
Ever since the supreme existence within the Frost Soul Sect perished, haven’t Night Spirit Valley and Wind Gate been constantly vying for the resources that belonged to Frost Soul Sect?
They’ve been coveting those for more than a day or two.”
“That may be true, but the girl brought from the lower realm by the Frost Soul Sect is truly extraordinary.
She possesses the Profound Yin Body, which is incredibly compatible with the Bingpo Sect’s sect guarding heart method.
In just around two years, she’s about to reach the Celestial Human Realm.
It’s quite frightful!”
“Not only that, but I heard that the sect master of the Frost Soul Sect has already taken her as his direct disciple, and she has even been designated as the next sect master.
It seems there’s been no opposition within the sect.”
Upon hearing this, Gu Chen’s lips curled into an involuntary smile, amused to encounter news of Gu Qingyan as soon as he arrived in Han State.
But at that moment, another voice piped up.
“What’s so special about that?
You might not know, but the girl with the Profound Yin Body from the Frost Soul Sect also has an elder brother whose talent is even more extraordinary.
Despite being in a nearly spiritless land in the lower realm, he managed to rise powerfully and even, single-handedly, defeated the joint forces of five Saint Sons from the Vault of Sky Sword Sect and Burning Heaven Valley.
They were all no match for him; he’s the true definition of a freak of nature!”
“Oh?
Really? freeωebnovēl.c૦m
A pair of monstrous siblings in one family?” someone exclaimed in surprise.
“I know about this as well.
It caused quite a stir more than two years ago, and basically, many people in this realm are aware of it.
That youngster is astonishing indeed.
To reach such heights by oneself in the lower realm, outmatching the united Saint Sons, and even overwhelming them—I heard that the five Saint Lords were so infuriated that they defied the heavens and sent many Celestial Humans to the lower realm.
But guess what happened in the end?”
“What happened?” the crowd eagerly inquired, as this piece of news was unknown to many.
The speaker whispered, “They all died!
Those Celestial Humans all perished, and it’s said to be the work of that young man from the lower realm!”
“What?!”
“Is that real?!”
“If this is true, it’s truly astonishing, beyond the bounds of heaven!”
In the eyes of the upper realm, the lower realm is akin to a land devoid of spirit.
To them, someone rising so powerfully from such a place seems like a fantasy.
“But what a pity, now that heaven and earth are severed, that young man, though stunningly unmatched and rare under the heavens, cannot ascend to the upper realm.
Otherwise, with the upcoming emergence of supreme fortune, amid the competing geniuses of three thousand six hundred states and the struggle for supremacy among the Ten Thousand Tribes, he might well secure a place for himself.”
Just then, someone suddenly shouted, “Breaking news, breaking news!
Night Spirit Valley and Wind Gate launched a surprise attack, leaving the girl with the Profound Yin Body from the Frost Soul Sect severely injured and almost perishing!”
At that moment, upon hearing the news, Gu Chen’s expression drastically changed, his eyebrows nearly standing on edge, his anger surging like a towering wave, his whole being nearly losing control!
