Chapter 387 – Using the Xenomorph Talent, The Secret of Becoming a Saint! [8k, Requesting Monthly Tickets~]

Su Xing’s heart stirred as he attempted to activate the new talent “Xenomorph”!

Immediately after, a brand-new panel that only he could see appeared before Su Xing’s eyes.

【Please select the Xenomorph race you wish to transform into. Currently available Xenomorph races are as follows:】

【1. Shadow Tribe — a sovereign race among the alien tribes, possessing considerable talent in the Dao of Speed and spatial Dao. Upon selecting this race, you will transform into a juvenile-stage Shadow Tribe member. Each transformation costs 100,000 origin energy.】

【2. Flame Demon Tribe — an ordinary race among Xenomorphs, possessing respectable talent in the Dao of Fire. Upon transforming into this race, you will become a juvenile-stage flame demon. Each transformation into a flame demon costs 10,000 origin energy.】

【3. Lesser Demon Tribe — the lowest race among Xenomorphs. Extremely mediocre in all aspects, yet possessing extraordinary digestive power, capable of devouring all life to rapidly strengthen oneself. Though extremely weak at the start, their potential is immense. Transforming into a Lesser Demon costs no origin energy.】

“This is… a panel that comes with the Xenomorph talent?”

Su Xing was momentarily stunned. He hadn’t expected this red talent to be so extraordinary.

“Each transformation actually requires consuming this much origin energy…”

Su Xing frowned slightly. This origin energy consumption clearly didn’t apply within the simulation — every time he used this talent, Su Xing would consume origin energy in the real world!

“However, with such a steep cost… this talent should be extremely powerful!”

Su Xing wanted to try transforming into another race, but not right now.

After all, he was currently in the Sixth Heaven. Transforming into an alien race there — how would that be any different from seeking death?

“Still, the differences between these three races…”

Su Xing pondered for a moment.

Among these three races, the Shadow Tribe was clearly the most powerful!

But each transformation cost 100,000 origin energy — that was far too expensive!

By comparison, the flame demon tribe was more moderate. Their talent wasn’t weak, and the 10,000 origin energy cost wasn’t too much either.

“As for the Lesser Demon Tribe…”

Su Xing rubbed his chin and murmured:

“This race should be the type with a very low starting point… but an extremely high ceiling and immense potential!”

Su Xing thought it through carefully. Each of the three races had its own strengths and weaknesses, seemingly suited for different scenarios.

“For the first attempt… I’ll try the flame demon tribe. After leaving the Azure Origin Domain and heading to the Heavenly Secrets Domain, perhaps I can give it a shot!”

Su Xing thought to himself.

……

After the immersive simulation ended, Su Xing returned to reality.

“Phew… the changes from this simulation were quite significant!”

“The Dao of Speed has successfully entered the fifth realm, and my body tempering cultivation isn’t far from Major Mastery of the Great Shaman Body Forging Art, Fifth Layer either…”

“But the most crucial thing is the application of this Xenomorph talent!”

Su Xing rubbed his chin, having already thought of suitable scenarios for using this talent.

But before that, Su Xing should focus on improving his cultivation first!

“Next, it’s time to head to the Heavenly Secrets Domain!”

Su Xing’s gaze turned to the simulation panel.

【Year 150: You left the Nine Heavens Domain and returned to the Azure Origin Domain.】

【The events in the Nine Heavens Domain left you with many questions. You decided to head to the Heavenly Secrets Domain as soon as possible to search for clues about the Nine Heavens Domain…】

【Year 160: You arrived at the South Sea Realm and piloted the Star-Moon Shuttle across the Endless Sea.】

【Year 170: You arrived at the White Cloud Realm and joined the White Cloud Sect.】

【Over the next hundred years, you remained peacefully in the White Cloud Realm, cultivating your Spirit Domain while improving your cultivation.】

【Year 300: Your Qi Refinement cultivation successfully advanced to Mystic Immortal Third Layer Peak…】

【That same year, the Celestial Secrets Pavilion’s Celestial Vessel descended upon the White Cloud Realm. You boarded the Celestial Vessel alongside the Bai siblings.】

【The Celestial Vessel sailed toward the Heavenly Secrets Domain, and twenty years passed in the blink of an eye…】

【Year 320: The Celestial Vessel was ambushed by alien tribes!】

【Looking at the alien horde surging toward you, endless battle intent welled up in your heart!】

【In this battle, you displayed tremendous power. In just three days, you slew no fewer than dozens of third-rank Divine Sovereigns from the alien tribes!】

【And unsurprisingly, you were also targeted by that second-rank Divine Sovereign of the alien tribes…】

【Facing this alien Divine Sovereign whose power rivaled a Golden Immortal, there was no longer the slightest fear in your heart!】

【This alien Divine Sovereign’s figure flickered, appearing behind you… His speed was so fast that a Mystic Immortal couldn’t even see him clearly…】

【His speed was fast, but yours was even faster!】

【The instant he attempted his ambush, you reacted immediately. Your invisible Spirit Domain unfurled, and a mysterious spatial ripple flashed across your body.】

【You effortlessly teleported a hundred li (50 km) away, evading the alien Divine Sovereign’s sneak attack…】

【Then, wielding the Blackice sword, you unleashed several streaks of sword qi at the alien!】

【Empowered by the Dao of Speed, your sword qi was even faster — so fast that even a Golden Immortal would struggle to dodge!】

【The sky-filling sword qi struck the alien Divine Sovereign!】

【However… though the sword qi was fast, its power was still insufficient to slay a Golden Immortal.】

【The alien Divine Sovereign suffered several sword wounds but was only lightly injured.】

【Though only lightly injured, this undoubtedly infuriated him!】

【In his fury, the alien Divine Sovereign began to lose his composure, attacking you in a frenzy.】

【But after countless simulations, your strength was no longer that of the rookie who had just entered the Mystic Immortal realm.】

【Facing the alien Divine Sovereign’s relentless offensive, you handled it with ease.】

【Before you realized it, you had exchanged over a hundred moves, fighting to a draw…】

【Such a spectacle naturally drew the attention of several powerhouses, including White Emperor.】

【Every Golden Immortal was a precious combat asset!】

【And you were merely a Mystic Immortal, yet you could fight a Golden Immortal to a standstill — that was even more eye-catching!】

【You hadn’t noticed this, instead focusing all your effort on fighting the alien Divine Sovereign, not daring to let your attention waver.】

【Although the Great Dao of Speed had entered the fifth realm, you only held a slight edge in speed.】

【In terms of raw power and techniques alone, you were still no match for this second-rank Divine Sovereign.】

【In the blink of an eye, you exchanged several hundred more moves…】

【As the battle intensified, you gradually began to be suppressed by the alien Divine Sovereign…】

【Wounds started appearing on your body, but fortunately your recovery speed was extremely fast, and you showed no signs of defeat in the short term.】

In the real world, Su Xing raised an eyebrow at this.

“As expected, having only comprehended the Great Dao of Speed, my current strength barely reaches the Golden Immortal level… but only the weakest kind!”

“Compared to that alien Divine Sovereign, I should still have a noticeable gap…”

“But the question now is… will this simulation trigger the Heart of the Strong talent again?”

Su Xing hesitated slightly, wondering whether he should hold back a little in this simulation.

So as to smoothly trigger the talent.

With that thought, Su Xing’s gaze turned to the simulation panel.

【In the blink of an eye, half a day passed…】

【Your battle with the alien Divine Sovereign drew frequent spectators from the cultivators aboard the Celestial Vessel.】

【By this point, you were significantly injured, while the alien Divine Sovereign on the other side had also been provoked into a genuine fury.】

【You calculated the timing and decided it was time to settle this once and for all…】

【So you deliberately left an opening. As the alien Divine Sovereign unleashed his black qi scythe, you seized the moment to strike through the void…】

【This sword strike represented your current maximum combat power! Empowered by No Martial Virtue, it was already capable of threatening a Golden Immortal’s life…】

【Finally, the silver sword qi pierced through the void and struck the alien Divine Sovereign squarely!】

【After a single strike, you nearly killed the alien Divine Sovereign on the spot…】

【But at the same time, the alien Divine Sovereign’s scythe also struck your body.】

【In an instant, your physical body began to crumble. The terrifying power nearly made you pass out on the spot…】

【The result of this battle was mutual grievous injury!】

【At that moment, White Emperor casually waved his hand, sending out a Protective Sword Aura that directly slew the gravely wounded alien Divine Sovereign!】

【Seeing this, you breathed a sigh of relief and stopped forcing yourself, retreating into the Celestial Vessel to recuperate…】

【A week later, your injuries finally healed… In this battle, you suffered grievous wounds and teetered on the brink of death, thus successfully triggering the Heart of the Strong talent!】

【Empowered by Heart of the Strong, your physical strength grew further.】

【At last, you broke through to Major Mastery of the Great Shaman Body Forging Art, Fifth Layer!】

【At this moment, you truly possessed Golden Immortal-level strength!】

In the real world, Su Xing let out a long breath of relief upon seeing this.

“Fortunately, the Heart of the Strong talent was triggered…”

“My physical strength has been further enhanced. If before I was infinitely close to Golden Immortal level… then now I can truly hold my own against a Golden Immortal!”

Golden Immortal — in the Three Thousand Worlds, this rank represented many things.

The strongest being in an entire Medium Chiliocosm was merely a Golden Immortal!

Even in the Greater World, among top-tier powers like the Azure Cloud Sect, Golden Immortals were honored guests.

Now, though Su Xing was only at the Mystic Immortal realm, he possessed Golden Immortal-level strength… The Three Thousand Worlds were vast, and Su Xing could go anywhere he pleased!

“At last, I have a certain degree of self-preservation capability…”

“And my ranking on the Prodigy List — it’s time to push it higher…”

Su Xing blinked, in quite a good mood.

“Next up is arriving safely at the Celestial Secrets Realm…”

“Everything stays the same as before… first, I’ll focus on improving my body tempering cultivation, then consider the Xenomorph talent!”

Su Xing thought to himself, his gaze turning to the simulation panel.

【This battle ended in victory for the Celestial Vessel’s side… The alien tribe’s first-rank Divine Sovereign was slain by White Emperor, and the Great Firmament Golden Immortal Blood Two fled with grievous wounds!】

【In this battle, you were arguably the third-strongest combatant on the human side. Aside from Xiao Zhanlong and White Emperor, you contributed the most!】

【Afterward, you were naturally invited by White Emperor and became a terrestrial Elder of the Celestial Secrets Pavilion…】

【Year 330: The Celestial Vessel successfully arrived at the Celestial Secrets Realm.】

【You began accepting missions from the Celestial Secrets Pavilion, disguising your appearance and concealing your aura… to hunt alien Divine Sovereigns!】

【In just over seventy years, you hunted no fewer than three hundred third-rank Divine Sovereigns of the alien tribes… obtaining tens of thousands of jin of blood essence!】

【However, with your current strength, although you possessed Golden Immortal combat power, hunting second-rank Divine Sovereigns was too risky. One moment of carelessness could spell disaster…】

【So you chose to lay low and develop, continuing to raise your strength.】

【Year 400: You began consuming blood essence to advance the Great Shaman Body Forging Art!】

【After the Great Shaman Body Forging Art reached Major Mastery of the Fifth Layer, Mystic Immortal-grade blood essence offered you much less benefit…】

【You consumed ten jin (5 kg) of same-grade blood essence daily, but the benefit was negligible.】

【Over ten years, you consumed all tens of thousands of jin of blood essence, yet your physical strength barely increased by less than ten percent.】

【On the other hand, Golden Immortal-grade blood essence obtained through contribution points increased your physical strength by approximately fifteen percent.】

【And so you continued cultivating steadily. Besides advancing the Great Shaman Body Forging Art, you focused on comprehending your Spirit Domain.】

【In the blink of an eye, a hundred years passed…】

【Year 500: In this year, you suddenly felt a stirring — your Spirit Domain seemed to have begun gradually merging with your spirit field grotto-heaven…】

【This filled you with great joy. Once the two merged, both your combat power and foundation would be significantly enhanced!】

【So you sought out White Emperor and consulted him further.】

【Under White Emperor’s guidance, your comprehension of the Spirit Domain improved further…】

【As you were leaving, you prepared to ask White Emperor about the secrets of the Nine Heavens Domain…】

In the real world, Su Xing raised an eyebrow at this.

“The secrets of the Nine Heavens Domain… White Emperor definitely knows!”

“Using immersive simulation, duration: one year…”

【Ding… Remaining origin energy: 9,823,942 points…】

As the simulation Chime faded, Su Xing’s consciousness entered the simulated world.

White Emperor’s voice reached his ears.

“You want to ask about the Nine Heavens Domain?”

White Emperor held a small sword in his hand, absentmindedly trimming his nails as he asked casually.

Hearing this, Su Xing immediately adopted a serious expression:

“Yes, Senior White Emperor… I’ve heard that the Nine Heavens Domain was an ancient battlefield… containing countless Secret Realms and precious treasures from the ancient era.”

“But why does the Sixth Heaven look like a wasteland of ruins?”

“Why is there no other cultivation world there?”

“And just how large is the Nine Heavens Domain exactly? What is hidden within the Ninth Heaven?”

Su Xing fired off a barrage of questions in one breath. Opportunities to question a Great Firmament Golden Immortal were rare.

Hearing Su Xing ask so many questions at once, White Emperor immediately felt a headache coming on. He waved his hand hastily:

“Why do you have so many questions? Fine… this young lord is in a good mood today, so I’ll answer them one by one!”

With that, White Emperor pointed a finger at the sky and said:

“Indeed, as the rumors say, the Nine Heavens Domain was indeed an ancient battlefield…”

“Or rather, it wasn’t merely from the ancient era — it could be called a primordial battlefield… Its history stretches back tens of millions of years!”

A look of reminiscence appeared in White Emperor’s eyes, and he continued:

“When this young lord first achieved immortality, the Nine Heavens Domain already looked the way it does now…”

“Later, when my cultivation bore fruit, I once ventured into the Eighth Heaven… That place truly is a land of treasure!”

“Nearly all Great Firmament Golden Immortals… will go there! And they will invariably gain something. Upon returning, they may find the Dao that belongs to them… and their strength will surge!”

Hearing White Emperor’s words, a look of longing appeared in Su Xing’s eyes.

Was the Nine Heavens Domain truly that miraculous?

Even Great Firmament Golden Immortals wanted to explore it?

White Emperor continued his explanation:

“The Nine Heavens Domain is divided into the upper three heavens, the middle three heavens, and the lower three heavens!”

“The lower three heavens hold no danger. Many immortals below the True Immortal rank go to explore them…”

“As for the middle three heavens, while there is some danger, the rewards outweigh the risks. They’re an excellent place for exploration before reaching the Golden Immortal level!”

“Until… above the Sixth Heaven!”

“The Sixth Heaven is what divides the inner and outer reaches of the Nine Heavens Domain!”

“Below the Sixth Heaven, each layer exists in a state of chaos and fragmentation… Therefore, not many powerful beings have appeared there!”

“But beyond the Sixth Heaven… even a Supreme Unity Golden Immortal could perish with a single moment of carelessness!”

“The Eighth Heaven can only be explored by Great Firmament Golden Immortals…”

Hearing this, Su Xing instinctively responded:

“Then what about the Ninth Heaven? Senior, have you ever been to the Ninth Heaven?”

Upon hearing Su Xing’s question, White Emperor slowly shook his head and said:

“I’ve tried… but I failed!”

“The Ninth Heaven — with my current strength, it seems I still cannot go there… Even if I forced my way in, it wouldn’t necessarily benefit my cultivation.”

White Emperor paused at this point, a glimmer of longing flashing through his eyes as he continued:

“Since ancient times, saints have not appeared… According to legend, the path to sainthood in the Three Thousand Worlds has been severed!”

“Millions of years… no saint has emerged…”

“There is a certain rumor… that the key to achieving sainthood lies within that Ninth Heaven!”

Hearing this, Su Xing’s eyes went wide, and his body began to tremble slightly.

The Nine Heavens Domain actually held the key to achieving sainthood!?

This was something Su Xing had never considered…

After all, in Su Xing’s view, even though the Nine Heavens Domain was an ancient battlefield —

It had long since lost its former glory. What connection could it possibly have with the secret of sainthood?

As if sensing the doubt in Su Xing’s heart, White Emperor hesitated for a moment, then sighed:

“You are a junior I think rather highly of… In the future, the safety of the Three Thousand Worlds will rest in the hands of juniors like you!”

“Although your cultivation has not yet reached the Golden Immortal level, you possess Golden Immortal combat power… You indeed have the right to know these things!”

White Emperor organized his thoughts for a moment, then spoke:

“In ancient times, the world was divided into ten domains… You should know this, right?”

“But in truth, the cultivation world was not only divided into ten domains — it was further divided into the upper realm and the lower realm!”

“Where we are now, including the five great domains, and even the former ten domains… all belong to the lower realm!”

“The lower realm has sparse spiritual energy and scarce natural treasures… But the upper realm is covered in natural treasures everywhere — even the rivers flowing across the land are formed from converging spirit liquid, with spiritual energy so abundant it surpasses supreme-grade grotto-heavens, reaching the level of an immortal sanctum!”

At this, a nostalgic look flickered through White Emperor’s eyes as he continued:

“In the primordial era, the world held myriad races, including the Wu Clan, the Dragon Race, the Wind Tribe, the Demon Tribe, the Ghost Tribe… and the human race!”

“At that time, our human race was essentially the lowest-ranked among all the myriad races…”

“Until tens of millions of years ago, when a calamity of the myriad races erupted. The two great factions led by the Wu Clan and the Demon Tribe launched a frenzied war… That battle lasted a full hundred thousand years!”

“After that war, the upper realm was shattered to pieces… Countless worlds and great domains broke apart and drifted away, becoming what is now the Nine Heavens Domain…”

Su Xing listened to White Emperor’s words, his mind conjuring images of that war’s terrifying scale.

White Emperor continued:

“In the primordial era, legend has it that there were ten saints in the world… And Great Firmament Golden Immortals numbered no fewer than a hundred!”

“They all lived in the upper realm, enjoying endless resources!”

“Let me give you an example — supreme post-celestial treasures and innate treasures are objects nearly impossible to find nowadays. Even Supreme Unity Golden Immortals may not possess one!”

“But in that era, supreme post-celestial treasures were everywhere — even True Immortals could have them… Innate treasures were somewhat scarcer, but Golden Immortals were more than capable of wielding them.”

“That era was the true golden age of cultivation!”

“Until after that war, the morale of the myriad races was devastated… and alien races invaded the Three Thousand Worlds for the first time!”

“From then on, the upper and lower realms were separated… divided into the Nine Heavens!”

“The human race, along with some demon tribes and minor races… fled to the lower realm, which became what is now the Three Thousand Worlds!”

As he spoke, a trace of regret flickered through White Emperor’s eyes as he said:

“Legend has it that after that war, the Heavenly Dao was enraged, and from that point on, saints were no longer allowed to appear in the world…”

“There is also a rumor that only by reaching the final Ninth Heaven can one glimpse the key to achieving sainthood!”

Su Xing listened to White Emperor’s words, a look of yearning flashing through his eyes.

He asked instinctively:

“Senior, has anyone ever reached the Ninth Heaven?”

After hearing Su Xing’s question, White Emperor fell silent for a moment before answering:

“Yes! As far as I know… two women have reached the Ninth Heaven!”

“The first was Luotian Ancestor, who lived hundreds of thousands of years ago — a woman of unparalleled grace who suppressed all the Great Firmament Golden Immortals of the Three Thousand Worlds…”

“The second is the current Celestial Secrets Pavilion Master…”

Hearing these words, Su Xing froze for a moment before blurting out:

“Luotian Ancestor is a woman?”

In Su Xing’s imagination, the Luotian Ancestor should have been like Qingyunzi — an old Daoist with an immortal bearing.

Or perhaps a battle-crazed warrior like the Celestial Demon General…

But Su Xing never expected that the Luotian Ancestor… was actually a woman!

And one who had suppressed all the Great Firmament Golden Immortals at that!

“Wait…”

Su Xing suddenly recalled that in the previous simulation, White Emperor had mentioned a woman who had cultivated her Spirit Domain to the ultimate level.

So he had been talking about the Luotian Ancestor.

“And also… the Celestial Secrets Pavilion Master is not currently in the Celestial Secrets Realm. Could it be that she is in the Ninth Heaven?”

Su Xing had a realization.

The Celestial Secrets Pavilion Master — the leader of all righteous cultivators in the current Three Thousand Worlds!

The most powerful and mysterious existence among the Great Firmament Golden Immortals…

It was precisely because the Celestial Secrets Pavilion Master was absent that the alien races dared to launch such a massive invasion of the Heavenly Secrets Domain!

As for why the Celestial Secrets Pavilion Master still hadn’t returned despite the dire situation in the Heavenly Secrets Domain —

Most likely, the Celestial Secrets Pavilion Master was at a critical juncture in her quest to uncover the secret of sainthood!

In an instant, all the mysteries were solved…

Why had the Heavenly Secrets Domain, and even the Three Thousand Worlds, been invaded by alien races?

Because there were no saints in the world!

“Then, on the alien race’s side… do they have saint-level combat power?”

Su Xing pondered endlessly.

Su Xing estimated that they probably didn’t…

Or perhaps they did, but for some reason, they couldn’t personally come to the Three Thousand Worlds!

That was why the alien races had launched such massive invasions — to drain the human race’s vitality!

Su Xing’s mind continued to churn.

At that moment, White Emperor spoke up:

“Your cultivation is still too low… Train harder… Who knows how long this peace will last!”

“Knowing too much will not benefit your cultivation…”

With that, White Emperor sighed and vanished from the spot.

Meanwhile, Su Xing was thinking about heading to the Nine Heavens Domain to explore further!

“The Sixth Heaven… the upper realm! So, does the Nine Heavens Domain correspond to the Three Thousand Worlds and is really as vast as the entire Three Thousand Worlds?”

“No — the Nine Heavens Domain should be even larger than the lower realm!”

“Because the current lower realm only has five great domains, whereas it once had ten…”

After some thought, Su Xing obtained the coordinates of the passage to the Nine Heavens Domain from the Celestial Secrets Pavilion.

He then piloted the Star-Moon Shuttle and headed for the Nine Heavens Domain.

After spending more than half a year traveling, Su Xing arrived at the Sixth Heaven.

The Sixth Heaven here was similar to what Su Xing had seen in the Azure Origin Domain — a landscape scarred by the fires of war.

Su Xing explored for several months but still found nothing of note.

…

The immersive simulation ended quickly, and Su Xing returned to reality.

“The Nine Heavens Domain, huh… I hope that one day, I too can go to the Ninth Heaven and explore the secret of sainthood!”

Su Xing yearned for it deeply.

But for now, the priority was to keep improving his cultivation!

With that thought, Su Xing turned his gaze to the simulation panel.

【You spent more than half a year traveling from the Heavenly Secrets Domain to the Nine Heavens Domain and explored for a while, but found nothing.】

【Year 501: You resumed your cultivation.】

【After receiving White Emperor’s guidance, your progress in Spirit Domain advanced three-tenths faster.】

【Over the next hundred years, you cultivated your Spirit Domain while hunting alien race Divine Sovereigns to temper your physique.】

【Year 600: Your physical body was over twenty percent stronger than before…】

【If you were to face the alien race’s second-rank Divine Sovereign from before, you were confident you could slay it relying solely on your own strength!】

【Year 680: While out hunting alien race Divine Sovereigns, you were ambushed by a second-rank Divine Sovereign.】

【You fought it for a full three years… but it ultimately escaped.】

【Year 710: One day, you sensed something stirring within you, and your Spirit Domain began to undergo a transformation…】

【Following that mysterious feeling, you gradually began to fuse your Spirit Domain with your spirit field grotto-heaven.】

【This process lasted a full three months!】

【The moment your Spirit Domain and spirit field grotto-heaven fully merged, you suddenly felt it… your Spirit Domain had broken through to an entirely new level!】

【Immediately after, the range of your Spirit Domain began to surge explosively…】

【Ten thousand zhang (33.3 km)… one hundred thousand zhang (333 km)!】

【In the end, the range of your Spirit Domain… surged all the way to a thousand li (500 km)!】

【In just one short year, your Spirit Domain became incomparably more powerful than before!】

【And as the range of your Spirit Domain surged… you discovered that you could now create an even more expansive spirit field grotto-heaven!】

【So you ventured into the void, using your spatial Dao to transfer those shattered worlds into your Spirit Domain…】

【Mountains and rivers, flora and fauna, living creatures and flowing water… boundless vitality flooded into your Spirit Domain!】

【In the end, your Spirit Domain stabilized at a range of one thousand li (500 km)…】

In the Real World, Su Xing’s eyes lit up with excitement at the sight of this.

“My Spirit Domain jumped directly from ten thousand zhang (33.3 km) to a thousand li (500 km)?”

“Is this… the great breakthrough White Emperor spoke of?”

Su Xing smacked his lips. Before this, he had always felt his Spirit Domain was lacking something.

Although it had provided some boost to his combat power, it hadn’t yet reached the level of truly transforming his strength!

The Luotian Ancestor of old had used her Spirit Domain to suppress all the Great Firmament Golden Immortals… Su Xing had even started to doubt that claim!

But now, with the Spirit Domain fused with the spirit field grotto-heaven —

Su Xing’s Portable Grotto-Heaven had truly become a world of its own!

And one spanning a full thousand li (500 km) at that!

If everything Su Xing could accomplish within his Spirit Domain could also be done within this thousand-li (500 km) world, then he would truly deserve the title of master of his own world!

“Setting everything else aside… just the power to reverse causality and fate alone!”

“If I could wield that within my own Spirit Domain, that would be an enormous improvement!”

“Moreover, battles between immortals easily span hundreds or thousands of li… The previous range of ten thousand zhang (33.3 km) was still too small — enemies could easily leave that range during combat…”

“But now, with a thousand-li (500 km) range, my practical combat ability has been massively enhanced!”

Su Xing could barely contain his excitement.

“What’s more… if I bring this Spirit Domain out, wouldn’t my spirit field grotto-heaven also become a thousand-li (500 km) space?”

“A thousand-li (500 km) space — how many people could it hold?”

Su Xing blinked.

Perhaps he could fit the entire population of Great Xia inside his Spirit Domain?

When the time came, even if Red Moon unleashed its power, Su Xing could easily save all those people!

“A thousand-li (500 km) Spirit Domain… There should still be some distance to go before reaching a Spirit Realm, right?”

Su Xing thought it over.

According to White Emperor, only at ten thousand li (5,000 km) could it be called a true realm!

That is, the so-called Spirit Realm…

Su Xing’s current Spirit Domain was still at the “domain” level.

“But it won’t be long now!”

“Breaking through this major boundary is the hardest part… After that, going from a thousand li (500 km) to ten thousand li (5,000 km) is just a matter of accumulation!”

Su Xing thought to himself.

“Phew, the Spirit Domain has successfully achieved its great breakthrough… So the goals for this simulation have been essentially accomplished!”

“Next, I should find the right time to test out that new talent…”

Su Xing mulled it over.

According to his original plan, between years eight hundred and nine hundred, the alien races and the Advent Cult might set their sights on him!

Blood Two in particular — Su Xing would have absolutely no power to resist…

He couldn’t even escape!

But if Su Xing were to transform into an alien… Blood Two would never be able to detect him!

At that point, Su Xing could continue cultivating within the Three Thousand Worlds, gathering critical intelligence… while hiding among the alien races!

“Phew… Then let’s wait and see!”

Su Xing turned his gaze to the simulation panel.

【After your Spirit Domain breakthrough, your strength reached a new tier… Your comprehensive combat power was now roughly equivalent to an early-stage Golden Immortal.】

【Over the next several decades, you continued to hunt alien races, devour blood essence, and raise your cultivation!】

【In the blink of an eye, ninety years passed…】

【Year 800: War between the alien races and the Heavenly Secrets Domain was imminent!】

【As one of the top combatants on the human race’s side, you naturally had to participate…】

【This war lasted a full ten years!】

【Over those ten years, you slew hundreds of alien race Divine Sovereigns… Among them was even one alien who had just broken through to second-rank Divine Sovereign!】

【Year 810: The war ended. You returned to the Celestial Secrets Realm and resumed peaceful cultivation.】

【Time quickly arrived at Year 880…】

【This year, while you were out hunting alien race Divine Sovereigns, Blood Two locked onto you…】
