Chapter 137: Upper Realm and Lower Realm

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

The Ghost Pearl was the energy source of the King of Hell.

...

Once the Ghost Pearl was damaged, it had severe consequences for the King of Hell, comparable to a cultivator’s spiritual root being damaged.

Therefore, unless necessary, no ghosts would choose to sacrifice their Ghost Pearl and use it as a magic item for the attack.

Only in the most dangerous situation would the Kings of Hell make such a risky move, which showed how much pressure Lu Yuan was putting on them.

Using the Ghost Pearl to attack was like the Kings of Hell’s last-ditch effort to risk their own life.

The power of this attack was even comparable to the attack of a second transition Core Formation Stage cultivator.

However, just as the two Ghost Pearls were about to hit Lu Yuan’s barrier, Lu Yuan also made a swift sword movement that looked effortless.

However, this seemingly effortless sword strike forced Shen Xuan to defend himself.

An illusory Sword Qi emanated from Lu Yuan’s Qingyun Sword.

The skill was the One Qi Sword Control Technique!

The pure Sword Qi broke through the barrier and collided with the two Ghost Pearls in an instant.

Smack!

Almost at the instant of collision, the two Ghost Pearls shattered with a loud noise.

The moment the two Ghost Pearls shattered, the two Kings of Hell behind Lu Yuan seemed to have suffered great pain.

They began to scream, and the death aura on their bodies began to dissipate quickly.

Even the Ghost Domain surrounding them collapsed in a matter of seconds.

But the Sword Qi did not stop after destroying the two Ghost Pearls. It continued to fly towards Shen Xuan.

Shen Xuan, who had previously been able to ignore the attacks of Meng Ruyan and Zhuang Yangbing, became serious when facing Lu Yuan’s attack.

In Shen Xuan’s hand appeared a talisman paper that was completely different from the paper bundles he had used before.

Upon closer inspection, the texture of the talisman paper seemed to be the skin of some kind of demonic beast. It was not only tougher but also carried some special spiritual energy fluctuations.

Lu Yuan immediately recognized that this talisman paper was made from the skin of a demon beast at the Core Formation Stage.

As Shen Xuan unfolded the talisman paper, it quickly formed a special shield.

In the next moment, Lu Yuan’s Sword Qi landed on the talisman paper.

Swish!

A sword mark quickly appeared on the hard talisman paper shield.

Although it was just a shallow scratch, it still surprised Shen Xuan who was behind the talisman paper shield.

This man had cultivated his Sword Qi to such a high level.

Shen Xuan thought that his talisman paper shield was powerful enough to withstand attacks even from a Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator.

Even a Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator would find it very difficult to leave a mark on his shield.

It would require at least the full power of a Core Formation Stage third transformation cultivator to achieve an attack like Lu Yuan’s.

Lu Yuan, a cultivator at the Foundation Establishment Stage, possessed an attack that could be comparable to a Core Formation Stage third transformation cultivator.

Such a monster came from the Moongazer Divine Prefecture, rather than from one of the celestial cultivation or top sects.

Perhaps even the disciples of those celestial cultivation and top sects might not have had such shocking sword intent as Lu Yuan.

After blocking Lu Yuan’s attack, Shen Xuan withdrew his shield.

Lu Yuan, who was opposite him, also removed his Nine Guard Return to Origin Array.

Because Shen Xuan was the only one left in the courtyard.

King of Hell Xuan and Ghost Bride had already turned into two broken pieces of Paper Man lying on the ground.

The Paper Men were covered in cracks, clearly indicating that they were no longer capable of continuing the fight.

Shen Xuan looked at Lu Yuan and said with a complicated expression, “Qingyun Sect cultivator Bai Dafei, you’ve passed the test.”

As he spoke, Shen Xuan suddenly took something out of his pocket and threw it toward Lu Yuan.

However, Lu Yuan did not allow the object to fly toward him.

Instead, he used his Item Manipulation to control the object, making it float in the air.

Even a three-year-old child would understand the principle of not taking things from strangers. Naturally, Lu Yuan would not make such a mistake.

Seeing how cautious Lu Yuan was, Shen Xuan couldn’t help but laugh.

“Bai Dafei, the item I gave you is the Immortal Ascension Token, it’s not anything dangerous. You don’t need to be so guarded,” Shen Xuan said.

Although Shen Xuan had already reassured him, Lu Yuan still did not trust him easily.

“Do you think I’m a three-year-old child? I trust my judgment more than your words,” Lu Yuan replied with vigilance.

Lu Yuan then used the system to check the details of the Moongazer Immortal Ascension Token.

[Moongazer Immortal Ascension Token]

[Description: A special token with an exclusive identification array on it, which could be used as proof.]

After confirming that this so-called Moongazer Immortal Ascension Token was indeed not dangerous, he immediately took out the token.

Shen Xuan noticed that Lu Yuan seemed to have believed him and said, “Although being cautious is a good thing, don’t you think you’re being too cautious?”

“As a cultivator from the Upper Realm, 1 won’t randomly attack cultivators from the Lower Realm like you. You can rest assured about this,” Shen Xuan explained.

A cultivator from the Upper Realm…

Although he had almost guessed Shen Xuan’s identity.

However, guessing was one thing, and understanding was another.

Before he did what he had planned, he was still curious about the Upper Realm that Shen Xuan had mentioned.

It seemed like Shen Xuan had not spoken to anyone for a long time, as he began to chatter non-stop.

“Bai Dafei, do you know the difference between the Lower Realm and the Upper Realm?”

Hearing Shen Xuan’s words, Lu Yuan immediately felt a strong sense that he was going to be lectured.

He didn’t even need to listen to Shen Xuan’s words to know that Shen Xuan was going to start a lecture for him.

However, in order to learn about the Upper Realm, Lu Yuan could only pretend to be very interested in Shen Xuan’s words.

After Shen Xuan finished speaking, Lu Yuan shook his head and indicated that he didn’t know much about the Upper Realm.

This made Shen Xuan feel a sense of superiority.

This kind of superiority was the kind where one believed they were better than others.

It was like the inexplicable sense of superiority that city people had over country people and was a well-established bad habit.

At this moment, Shen Xuan was enjoying this feeling.

He looked at Lu Yuan and began to speak proudly, “The world you’re in now is what we call the Lower Nine Realms.”

“That’s right, there are nine other small worlds.”

“However, there’s one thing you might not know. We can’t interfere in the affairs of the Lower Realm.”

“The main reason for this is due to the restrictions of the world and the protection of various sects in the Lower Realm.”

“After all, although the spiritual energy in the Lower Realm is thin and resources are scarce.”

“But in the matter of celestial cultivation, luck is important.”

“As long as a person has great luck, even if he is born in the Lower Realm, he can ultimately turn misfortune into fortune and reach heights that many people from the Upper Realm cannot reach.”

“The ten Gates of Hell correspond to ten sect’s selection grounds.”

“As long as the cultivator can pass through the Gates of Hell and obtain the recognition of the gatekeeper, you can obtain the Immortal Ascension Token.”

“And this Immortal Ascension Token is a qualification, a qualification to participate in the final test of the Full Moon Mountain Range.”

“Based on my observation of you, Bai Dafei, this final path of immortal ascension shouldn’t be difficult for you.”

“As long as you pass the path of immortal ascension, you will be able to leave the Lower Realm and go to the Upper Realm to experience a wider world.”

At this point, Shen Xuan’s pride as an Upper Realm person completely erupted.

It was as if he was saying, “1 am from the Upper Realm, and 1 am very powerful!”

But what he did not know was that Lu Yuan’s thoughts were completely different from what he thought.

“Go to the Upper Realm? Am I crazy to go to the Upper Realm!”

“Isn’t it nice for me to stay in this novice village in the Lower Realm and train to the maximum level?”

“Running to such a dangerous place like the Upper Realm, isn’t it just asking for death?”

Shen Xuan did not notice Lu Yuan’s strange gaze and continued to say, “Bai Dafei, the Immortal Ascension Token you have now is the token of our sect, the Azure Feather Sect.”

“As long as you pass the path of immortal ascension, my sect’s disciple will come to receive you.”

“At that time, you will be able to ascend to the Upper Realm and widen the gap between you and the nobodies in the Lower Realm.”

“How about it? Now that you know all this, do you feel how precious this token is?”

However, when Shen Xuan saw Lu Yuan’s expression, he was instantly stunned.

Because Lu Yuan actually threw the token back!
