Da Xuan Martial Saint

Chapter 1088: Chapter 535: Entering Source Land (Part 2)

Of course, these were just rumors to him. After all, within the Fan Gu Ancient Domain, every era would give birth to some Divine Under Ninth Rank beings, but he hadn’t heard of anyone who truly caught the attention of a significant figure.

In the end.

Although the Fan Gu Ancient Domain is vast, within the entire Endless Void, it is merely a corner of land.

“I wonder if I will have the opportunity…”

The living being, body slender like bamboo joints, slowly stood up, a faint glow flashing in his eyes. After inhaling a mouthful of dense spiritual energy from between heaven and earth, he then strode forward and swiftly disappeared.

At the same time,

In a world frozen for thousands of miles.

A living being, its entire form like an ice sculpture, rose and stepped into the depths of ice and snow.

In a world filled with fiery lava.

A gigantic living being, whose whole body resembled rock, with scorching Flowing Fire burning, also stepped out of the magma. Its massive body moved extremely nimbly, and after a few steps, it quietly vanished.

…

Da Xuan World.

Beyond the northwestern border, deep within the endless yellow sands, beyond the mirage.

Two figures quietly appeared. As they walked, wherever they passed, the endless yellow sand parted silently, splitting in two from the middle, making way for the two people coming through.

Soon.

The two figures reached the depths of the mirage, where a mysterious, dark vortex appeared. It was an extremely deep void passage, leading to an unknown distant place.

“Is this the passage to the Great Wilderness…”

Chen Mu gazed at this passage, his expression somewhat solemn.

Such terrifying Void Force!

One must know, his Dao of Void had already been cultivated to the level of Entering Dao, capable even of Shattered Void, breaking through the First Layer Heaven. Yet on this passage, he felt an unshakeable heaviness, obviously indicating that here, the Void Force had thickened to an extremely terrifying degree, beyond what his current strength could damage!

In Chen Mu’s judgment, perhaps even if his strength were increased tenfold or even dozens of times, able to break through the Third or even the Fourth Layer Heaven, he might still be unable to destroy this void passage!

Behind this passage, it was connected to the Source Land of the Fan Gu Ancient Domain!

“This passage seems different from before?”

The other person accompanying Chen Mu spoke, her voice carrying a hint of surprise amidst its softness.

She was clad in purple, none other than the Sect Master of the Hehuan Sect, Muqing Qiu.

A long time ago, when Chen Mu obtained the Soul Refinement Technique from the Hehuan Sect, he had made an agreement with Muqing Qiu to seek the whereabouts of the previous Sect Master of the Hehuan Sect lost in the Great Wilderness together upon entering it, regardless of the outcome, this would be the only time.

Although Chen Mu now knew much more about the Great Wilderness, this was ultimately his first exploration into it. Hence, while familiarizing himself with the internal workings of the Great Wilderness, he would also fulfill the agreement with the Hehuan Sect.

It’s worth mentioning.

Muqing Qiu was one of the early visitors to the Seven Profound Sect to comprehend the Primordial Chart, and after Chen Mu drew the Qiankun Chaotic Origin Map, she comprehended for more than a year, finally achieving Sudden Insight and entering the Celestial Human Level, becoming the first Celestial Human in the history of the Hehuan Sect!

Her attainment of this Celestial Human status could be attributed to a combination of factors, one being the flourishing of the Hehuan Sect under her leadership, leaving her mindset tranquil despite being the Sect Master, and another being guided, either directly or indirectly, by Chen Mu’s lectures on the Dao, as this world saw nearly ten Celestial Masters born within a few short years, of whom she was one.

At this moment.

Muqing Qiu was scrutinizing the void passage with a slight frown; she had explored the Great Wilderness before, and each void passage felt different, but this time, the aura of the passage oppressed her greatly.

“As the Great Void Tide approaches, there will inevitably be some changes.”

Chen Mu had already withdrawn his gaze by this time, responding in a calm tone. “No time to lose, let’s go.”

Saying that.

He took the lead and stepped into the void passage.

Muqing Qiu did not hesitate, immediately following in his footsteps after seeing Chen Mu enter.

Shortly after the two entered the void passage, one after another, figures came from the north. The first to arrive was a dim sword light, seemingly melding into the void, reaching from afar in an instant.

The newcomer was Donglin Sword Master Gu Xiaochen.

“Great Wilderness…”

Gu Xiaochen gave the void passage a glance, and after a brief contemplation, he too took a step forward and entered it.

In the past, when the Great Wilderness opened, top masters above the Blood Exchange Realm had flocked to it for its countless rare treasures, not to mention now, only within the Great Wilderness could they find resources for further advancement.

Although Gu Xiaochen also wished to remain at the Seven Profound Sect to comprehend the Void Map drawn by Chen Mu, he ultimately needed to venture into the Great Wilderness to seek resources that might nourish his Soul Heart, temper his Martial Blood, and push him further along the path to the God Realm.

Swoosh!

After Gu Xiaochen entered the void passage, the Master Xuantian in a robe arrived closely behind.

He looked at the Great Wilderness, recalling the last words left by Tiancal Manzi before he died from a Causality backlash. Quickly quelling his thoughts, he too took a step forward and disappeared into it.

Then.

Gongyang Yu, Mo Zun… one by one, Celestial Masters came from the north, entering the void passage successively, until a good while later, the last Blood Exchange Realm person arrived, and after a moment of contemplation, also stepped in.

The rolling yellow sands surged, gradually obscuring the entrance to the void passage, interweaving with swirling dark fog, making the interior unclear, eerily silent like an abyss.

…

Within the gray fog.

Pieces of ‘islands’ drifted.

To call them islands might not be quite appropriate, for each island floating in the void was exceedingly large, at least as vast as a county in Da Xuan, spanning several thousand miles, each capable of supporting a small nation.

These broken lands floated amid the dark fog like a scattered starry piecework, and if one could see through the fog, looking deeper in, they would find the closer to the interior, the larger, and more concentrated these lands became.

At the edge of one landmass.

Here the void was chaotic, with an almost undetectable Void Vortex outlined here, within the gray vortex a shadow quickly reflected, then this shadow stepped across the vortex, walking out.

The figure emerging from the vortex wore a plain green-clothed robe, with deep eyes; it was Chen Mu!

“This is the Source Land…”

Chen Mu walked forward a couple of steps, casting his gaze around.

All he could see was gray mist; this mist was highly disruptive, not only blocking his view but also limiting his Soul Heart perception to a mere range of a few hundred feet.

Comparing with his ability in the Da Xuan World, where his Soul Heart merged with heaven and earth, able to perceive thousands of miles afar with a thought, the difference was stark.

Chen Mu tested it.

Sure enough, as the intelligence reports described, in the Great Wilderness, or rather in the Source Land, he could still achieve ‘Unity of Heaven and Man’, but this state only extended his perception from a few hundred feet to just over a thousand feet or so.

And Chen Mu also tried the ‘State of Nothingness’, melding body with the void, borrowing the Void Force for sensing, finding that in this state, the perceptive capability was even stronger than ‘Unity of Heaven and Man’, able to sense a range of several thousand feet.

Chen Mu was not surprised by this.

The Source Land, after all, is the primordial birthplace of the entire Fan Gu Ancient Domain. In terms of essence, it is far superior to the level of the Da Xuan World, hence it contains the Qiankun Eight Phases, and therefore methods like Unity of Heaven and Man could still be employed, and Celestial Masters here could still harness The Power of Heaven and Earth.

Except here the ‘heaven and earth’, besides the Qiankun Eight Phases, also includes the Void Force, Power of Time, Creation Power… and perhaps even more complex special forces belonging to the subservient powers of the Origin Dao, all encompassing.
