Capítulo 2018: Chapter 2017: Gongsun Muya’s Submission and the Future of the Divine Continent

The Blade Princess of the Seven Demons might never understand, even in death, why she ended up like this because of a stranger.

But that no longer matters.

Because the feelings of the dead are inconsequential.

Without the help of these three strongest individuals, the mecha army brought by Gongsun Muya could easily massacre the three major forces.

Xu Zimei couldn’t be bothered with these people anymore.

He looked at Gongsun Muya in front of him and said with a smile, “Now you owe me a life.”

“I’ll do anything you ask,” Gongsun Muya nodded.

During the battle just now, he had retrieved the corpse of his partner from the top of Orchid Island.

And personally buried the partner underground.

At this moment, his wish was fulfilled; besides the path of science, he had almost no other desires.

Even if he were to die, he had no objections.

His great revenge had been achieved, and although the preserved life wasn’t taken by his own hand, seeing it with his own eyes was enough.

“Rest assured, no need for such generous self-sacrifice,” Xu Zimei said with a smile.

“I simply wish for you to develop the path of science well.”

Gongsun Muya was taken aback.

He didn’t expect Xu Zimei’s request to be like this in the end.

“It’s my wish too, but…” Gongsun Muya shook his head somewhat disheartened.

“This world holds no place for the path of science.

I’ve strived for so many years, and besides the Dominator of Chaos believing in me, hardly anyone else does.

Furthermore, the Dominator of Chaos merely wants me to assist him; he won’t truly propagate my path of science.”

Gongsun Muya saw things clearly and chuckled bitterly, “Not to mention the entire Robbery Immortal Domain, even just one Immortal Island has such upheaval.

Though I am willing, I lack the strength.”

“You’ve misunderstood my meaning,” Xu Zimei said with a smile.

“This land doesn’t provide fertile ground for the path of science, so why not change lands?”

“What do you mean?” At these words, Gongsun Muya’s initial reaction was confusion.

Change lands?

Where could we go?

“For instance, change worlds?” Xu Zimei gently guided him, smiling.

As he spoke these words, a sudden thunder echoed between heaven and earth, as if some calamity had arrived.

Gongsun Muya started in fright.

“I… I don’t understand what you mean,” he said, staring into Xu Zimei’s eyes, which seemed to hold boundless magic.

Gongsun Muya couldn’t describe it, only feeling as if he’d touched something extraordinary.

“Don’t worry,” Xu Zimei reassured him with a wave of his hand.

Strong power rose from Xu Zimei’s body, and the void began to split and coalesce in his hands.

In the end, a passage appeared.

The end of the passage was invisible, and Xu Zimei said with a smile, “Why not come with me and have a look at that world suited for the path of science.”

Gongsun Muya was momentarily speechless.

Staring at the passage, he felt as though once he entered, he would never return.

“Are you afraid?” Xu Zimei asked.

“I’m not even afraid of death, what else is there to fear?

Besides, I owe you a life, what does it matter if you kill me?” Gongsun Muya suddenly felt relieved, bursting into laughter.

“Then let’s go and see.

I’ve always longed to find a world suited for the path of science, to see what it’s truly like.”

Both of them stepped into this space-time passage together.

This was directly leading to the Divine Continent.

……

Time flowed beneath their feet, and the sun and moon rotated.

In a short while, the two entered the Divine Continent.

As he entered this world, Gongsun Muya was dumbfounded, utterly astonished.

He looked at this world before him.

This wasn’t an illusion, nor a fabrication, but a real world.

“Impossible, it’s impossible,” Gongsun Muya frantically shook his head.

“The Nine Domains World still exists; how can a new world appear?”

“Nothing is impossible in this world,” Xu Zimei shook his head and laughed.

“It’s right in front of you, what is there to doubt?”

Gongsun Muya glanced at Xu Zimei, realizing he had stumbled upon a massive conspiracy.

“Are you replacing the sky?”

“You misunderstood. With other matters, it’s possible to play with conspiracies and tricks, but do you think such a vast world could be solved by them?”

Xu Zimei shook his head.

He understood Gongsun Muya’s meaning, replacing the Nine Domains with a new world of his own.

This isn’t something that can be done by replacing the sky and the sun what can achieve.

Reaching that stage requires Xu Zimei to face it openly and uprightly.

To genuinely challenge the heavens, to truly defeat the Heavenly Dao, only then can the Divine Continent replace and devour the Nine Domains World.

No sly tricks, only through absolute strength can one reach the end.

Now, the timing isn’t right, and Xu Zimei doesn’t want to reveal too much too soon.

Once the timing is right, he will openly present the Divine Continent.

To compete openly and with honor against the Heavenly Dao.

Finally, victory or defeat will decide who truly is the world’s dominator.

However, Gongsun Muya’s feeling wasn’t wrong; once in here, he had no choice, and he could never leave.

Because Xu Zimei wouldn’t allow the secrets here to be exposed now.

If Gongsun Muya didn’t agree, then his end wouldn’t be good.

There’s no such thing as a free deal in this world.

“This world…” Gongsun Muya still had concerns.

“Is mine, I am the Creator here.”

Xu Zimei laughed.

“This is a newborn world, though primarily based on cultivation.

But the opportunities for development here are greater, where science and cultivation can complement each other, ultimately progressing this world.”

“With my help as the Creator, the path of science will surely shine brightly in this world.”

“Shine brightly, shine brightly,” Gongsun Muya mumbled to himself.

To some extent, he actually didn’t care about anything else; he was a very pure scientist.

It was just that he later met someone he loved, his partner.

Now, having personally buried his partner, he seemed to return to his pure self.

“Indeed, let’s join hands, and let the path of science shine brightly.”

Gongsun Muya said excitedly.

“Whether it shines brightly here or in the Nine Domains World doesn’t matter.

As long as the path of science is passed on, it is enough.”

Xu Zimei nodded.

Finally, he introduced Gongsun Muya to some members of the Monster Race and had Bai Meng personally ensure his safety.

The development of the path of science needs to be gradual at first because it’s a new concept.

Xu Zimei intended to observe again after some time had passed.

Before leaving, Xu Zimei asked, “You know about the Old Tree, don’t you?”

Gongsun Muya nodded; having been on Immortal Island for so long, he naturally had access to such information.

Xu Zimei shared his speculations and intel regarding the Old Tree.

Gongsun Muya frowned slightly and said, “If you give me the blood of that Sea Beasts and the Token of the Old Tree, I can help you research it.”
