Chapter 1744: Chapter 3: Human Hearts and Paths
In the dark âSenluo Hellâ.
Daoist Yuanci sat quietly in the underworld.
His spiritual sense swept over the surroundings little by little.
Countless dense, starry lights danced in his vision.
Sometimes a vast number of star points disappeared, and at other times a vast number of star points quickly supplemented from various corners of the Xiao Cang Realm.
These are the âTrue Spiritsâ.
They are the root of those born with spiritual wisdom.
Physical death, soul dispersal are merely external.
Only the destruction of the true spirit signifies the complete annihilation of a life.
And Senluo Hell is the place that can observe all true spirits within the Xiao Cang Realm.
In his vision, almost all of these true spirits were shrouded in confusion, their spiritual light dim.
Only a very few true spirits faintly emitted a unique aura, standing out like a triton among the minnows in the vast sea of tiny true spirits.
âThis is the true spirit of An ChangshouâŠâ
âThis should be the one of Tai A Temple MasterâŠâ
âXiang SiruiâŠâ
Daoist Yuanci examined each of the true spirits that were obviously different from the ordinary.
These are the true spirits of Ascended Cultivators.
Ascended true spirits are imbued with Dao rhythm, allowing them to linger in the world longer, maintain their essence through reincarnation, and even have some chance to awaken innate wisdom.
Therefore, even though the great battle had ended, the true spirits of An Changshou and others had yet to proceed to reincarnation.
Yet, what made Daoist Yuanci frown was that, after many examinations, he did not see that personâs true spirit among them:
âQin Lingxiaoâs true spirit is not here, could it be that she has already reincarnated?â
âŠ
âVice Sect Master Wang plans to take the entire Xiao Cang Realm to another domain?!â
Taiyi Dojo.
Within Chunyang Palace, Wanxiang Sect.
All the Ascended Cultivators inside the Xiao Cang Realm gathered as one.
This kind of scenario made everyone somewhat speculative, but when they heard this shocking news from Wang Baâs mouth, they couldnât help but be stunned!
âIsnât this a bit too riskyâŠ?â
Even those like Ling Weizi, who usually stood firmly on Wang Baâs side, couldnât help but show expressions of shock, hesitation, and doubt.
Not to mention Liang Wuji of the Longevity Sect and the heavily damaged Youxian Temple cultivators who had previously faced the World Eaters alone.
Liang Wuji was better off, as he was under the roof of others, and having seen Wang Baâs abilities, though he had doubts, he didnât speak up immediately.
The remaining cultivators of Youxian Temple glanced at each other, and Xiong Zhaojing spoke in a deep, somber voice:
âSect Master Zhao, Vice Sect Master Wang, we are all grateful for your sectâs effort to save the Xiao Cang Realm from disaster, but migrating an entire domain⊠this is indeed quite shocking.â
Zhao Feng explained solemnly:
âTaoist Friend Xiong, the Chaos Origin Substance around the Xiao Cang Realm has long been exhausted, which is why it continually degrades. If we do not go elsewhere, it wonât be long before the Xiao Cang Realm, large as it is, will be uninhabitable for us. Taoist Friend Xiong, do you truly wish to live in a time when Ascended canât leave?â
Upon hearing this, Xiong Zhaojing furrowed his brows slightly. He indeed didnât want to be so constrained, but the thought of migrating the entire Xiao Cang Realm to another place seemed beyond his control, evoking a natural unease and resistance, causing him to say:
âBut, this is a significant matter, can we give it some more thoughtâŠ?â
âTaoist Friend Xiong need not worry about these matters, the Xiao Cang Realm has already migrated.â
Wang Baâs voice suddenly rang out, immediately bringing silence to the entire Chunyang Palace.
Apart from Zhao Feng, everyone couldnât help but show looks of disbelief.
After a brief silence, small discussions arose inside the palace.
Even Liang Wuji couldnât sit still. Having just awakened after being defeated by Ye Cangsheng and hearing such shocking news, he couldnât help but say:
âVice Sect Master Wang, the matter of migrating the Xiao Cang Realm is of great importance, and rashly migrating, the consequences might be unpredictableâŠâ
âNo matter how difficult the consequences may be, itâs better than having the Outer Realm World Eaters return.â
Wang Baâs expression was calm, without any signs of displeasure due to the questioning, he asked rhetorically:
âIf several more Seventh Tier World Eaters come, how will you resist?â
âSeventh Tier?!â
Upon hearing this, whether Liang Wuji or Xiong Zhaojing, or the other Ascended Cultivators in the hall, all fell silent.
Never mind the Seventh Tier, even if a few more Sixth Tier World Eaters come, they wouldnât be able to withstand them.
But both men, being one the Sect Master and the other a main manager from outside the temple, had sharp minds. After brief surprise, they quickly understood.
Since the Wanxiang Sect had already made the decision, and even the Xiao Cang Realm had begun to migrate, what was the point of calling them here?
They looked at Zhao Feng and Wang Ba with confusion.
Eventually, it was the younger Xiong Zhaojing who couldnât contain himself and said:
âSect Master Zhao, Vice Sect Master Wang, if there are any arrangements, please speak frankly.â
Zhao Feng, hearing this, was not polite and expressed Wang Baâs meaning:
âThis migration of the Xiao Cang Realm to another place, who knows how long it will take; perhaps a millennium, perhaps ten thousand years, perhaps longer, and we might encounter strong enemies halfway, making the Xiao Cang Realm nonexistent⊠These are things we are likely to encounter along the way.â
Xiong Zhaojing and Liang Wuji exchanged a glance and nodded.
A world migrating through the Realm Sea to another place is bound to encounter countless hardships.
But, the current situation is stronger than people, and if the World Eaters indeed attack again, the Xiao Cang Realm perhaps wouldnât even last now, let alone the future?
This truth was not difficult to understand. Therefore, though initially resistant, once realizing the inevitability of the Xiao Cang Realmâs migration, people quickly accepted it and began pondering how to deal with the many unfamiliar situations after truly traversing the Realm Sea.
