Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“Sun Wu Kong is about to reach or has reached the threshold of becoming a god… This means he’s already a Ten Directions Celestial Emperor, and after his next breakthrough, he’ll become a god! As for Yang Jia… Since he dares to challenge Sun Wu Kong so many times, he must also be a Ten Directions Celestial Emperor.”

With the information he obtained from the Memory Celestial Talisman, it was not difficult for Duan Ling Tian to figure this out.

He could not help but feel slightly bitter. In the beginning, he had looked forward to meeting these legendary characters on earth when he found out they were real. If he had the chance, he wanted to have a drink with them and have fun! However, at this moment, after discovering Sun Wu Kong and Yang Jian’s strength, he was aware of how foolish his thoughts were. He was so weak that even Sun Wu Kong and Yang Jian’s descendants would not want to have anything to do with him, let alone Sun Wu Kong and Yang Jian who were peak powerhouses in a Devata Realm.

‘If I want to talk to them on equal footing, I must, at least, be as powerful as they are… Currently, I’m still far too weak.’ Duan Ling Tian sighed as he put the Memory Celestial Talisman down.

Subsequently, Duan Ling Tian picked up the Memory Celestial Talismans, one after another.

These Memory Celestial Talismans had recorded all sorts of anecdotes, serving as a casual way for him to pass time.

Nevertheless, the information in the Memory Celestial Talismans had painted a better picture of the vastness of a Devata Realm to Duan Ling Tian. It was much bigger than he had imagined!

For instance, the Yan Mountain Mansion in the Equal Heaven Territory where he was currently staying and the Profound Nether Mansion in the Southern Heaven Territory where he had previously stayed were just a small area in the Jade Emperor Heaven and the Spirit Overarching Heaven respectively.

Such territories were ruled by titled Celestial Lords. Usually, there would only be one titled Celestial Lord in one territory.

‘Insignificant… At this point, I’m far too insignificant. Even after I become a Ten Directions Celestial Duke with the boost from the Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruit, I’m still far too weak.”

After becoming a Ten Directions Celestial Duke, the next stage was to become a Celestial King. Celestial Kings were divided into ten sub-stages.

After becoming a Ten Directions Celestial King, the next stage was to become a Celestial Lord. Celestial Lords were also divided into ten sub-stages. Moreover, there was a distinction between an ordinary Celestial Lord and a titled Celestial Lord.

After becoming a Ten Directions Celestial Lord, the next stage was to become a Celestial Emperor. Similarly, Celestial Emperors were divided into ten sub-stages, and there was a huge difference between an ordinary Celestial Emperor and a titled Celestial Emperor. Even among titled Celestial Emperors, there were stronger ones and weaker ones. Powerful titled Celestial Emperors were beings like Sun Wu Kong, Yang Jian, or the Heavenly Emperors who ruled Devata Realms.

‘If Sun Wu Kong is truly about to reach or has reached the threshold of becoming a god and managed to severely injure Yang Jian with three moves, he should already be as strong as a Heavenly Emperor of a Devata Realm.’

‘Is he really as arrogant and unruly as the legends say? If he is, will he challenge the Jade Emperor so he could become the new Heavenly Emperor of the Jade Emperor Heaven?’

Various thoughts appeared in Duan Ling Tian’s mind. He could not help but wonder if Sun Wu Kong would challenge the Jade Emperor for the position of Heavenly Emperor of the Jade Emperor Heaven. He felt slightly excited thinking about it. If Sun Wu Kong succeeded, there was no doubt the news would spread throughout the Jade Emperor Heaven. Moreover, such sensational news would not only be limited to the Jade Emperor Heaven. Even if he had already returned to the Spirit Overarching Heaven, he was certain news would travel to the Spirit Overarching Heaven as well!

…

Initially, Duan Ling Tian had been rather nonchalant about his slow progress. However, as the days passed, he began to feel anxious. ‘My cultivation base is improving, but there are still no signs of me comprehending profundities from a new law.’

To ease his mind, Duan Ling Tian shifted his attention to opening up a Little World, a skill unique to Celestial Dukes and those who were stronger. Naturally, there were differences between Little Worlds created by stronger Celestials and weaker Celestials.

Generally, a Little World created by a Celestial Duke was portable. To be precise, the Little Worlds they created were located in their bodies. Like a Spatial Ring, they could store their possessions in there. The difference was Little Worlds were capable of holding living things.

A Little World created by a Celestial King could be placed in a fixed location similar to the Little World Duan Ling Tian had entered when he first ascended to the Spirit Overarching Heaven. It was where he had gotten to know Murong Bing intimately.

Naturally, a Little World created by a Celestial Lord was superior to those created by Celestial Kings. For example, the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm that Duan Ling Tian entered previously was created by the Southern Heaven Celestial Lord from the Southern Heaven Territory. Since it was created, it had been maintained by the other Southern Heaven Celestial Lords through the passage of time. Therefore, it did not collapse or disappear due to depleted energy.

Little Worlds created by Celestial Lords and Celestial Kings could last forever if they remained a secret and no one, apart from the creators, entered them. However, once others stepped foot into a Little World, it would begin to exhaust its energy until it eventually vanished.

“I’ve read about the method to create a Little World while I was in the Simplicity Sect’s library… I should try creating one now.”

Duan Ling Tian followed the methods he had memorized to create a Little World in his body.

To create a Little World, the main energies used were Celestial Origin Energy and Soul Energy. Apart from that, one had to nourish the Little World with Celestial Origin Energy and Soul Energy for some time before the Little World stabilized.

If Duan Ling Tian used his consumable Royal Grade Celestial Weapon to obtain the strength of a One Basic Celestial Lord and used it to create a Little World, the Little World would be similar to Little Worlds created by Celestial Lords. However, it would collapse quickly. This was because he would have to nourish it with a Celestial Lord’s Celestial Origin Energy and Soul Energy, for a period of time before it stabilized, and he could not maintain the strength of a Celestial Lord since the consumable Royal Grade Celestial Weapon’s power would dwindle with every use.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

Duan Ling Tian mobilized his Celestial Origin Energy before he compressed them.

To create a Little World, one had to compress one’s Celestial Origin Energy as densely as possible until it exploded. The explosion would signify the successful creation of a Little World.

At this moment, while Duan Ling Tian was compressing his Celestial Origin Energy, the Profound Divine Metal’s voice suddenly rang in his mind. “If you’re trying to create a Little World, I suggest you place it near your heart…”

“Near my heart?” Duan Ling Tian was curious. “Why?”

“You might have a surprise waiting for you,” the Profound Divine Metal replied.

“A surprise?” Duan Ling Tian was puzzled. However, it seemed like the Profound Divine Metal had no intention of enlightening him. Moreover, even the Chaos Divine Flame and Chaos Divine Earth remained silent.

It was not unusual for the Chaos Divine Flame to stay silent, but Duan Ling Tian was surprised when the Chaos Divine Earth stayed silent as well. “Chaos Divine Earth, aren’t you going to tell me about the surprise?”

“The chances of it happening is low… There’s no point in mentioning it now if it fails to happen. If it succeeds, it’ll be a surprise for you then.” The Chaos Divine Earth’s childish voice rang in Duan Ling Tian’s mind. Its reply only made more questions appear in Duan Ling Tian’s mind.

“It might be possible. Don’t forget he has 99 Heavenly Veins. Moreover, the main branch from the Divine Tree of Life has already acknowledged him as its’ master,” the Chaos Divine Flame said at this moment.

“The possibility of success is not more than 30%,” the Profound Divine Metal said.

Duan Ling Tian only grew more and more confused after he listened to the three Divine Elements’ words. Nevertheless, the three Divine Elements had no intention of clearing his confusion. Although he was puzzled and curious, he no longer asked any questions. He continued focusing on compressing his Celestial Origin Energy. After all, he would get his answer sooner or later. He would also do as the Profound Divine Metal’s suggested and place the Little World close to his heart.

…

Time continued to pass…

One hour.

Two hours.

One day.

Two days.

…

After three days had passed, Duan Ling Tian had compressed his Celestial Origin Energy and made it as dense as he possibly could with the help of his Soul Energy.

“I finally reached the most important stage… According to the records I read, I should pierce this ball of compressed Celestial Origin Energy with my Soul Energy. The Soul Energy will draw power from the Celestial Origin Energy at that time to create a Little World. During the process, my Soul Energy has to be in harmony with the compressed Celestial Origin Energy.”

“The Little World will be cold and empty like a Spatial Ring in the beginning. To make it more lively, I’ll have to personally put soil in there and transplant whatever plants I want.”

After taking a deep breath, Duan Ling Tian controlled his Soul Energy and pierced the ball of compressed Celestial Origin Energy with it. He did not find the process difficult since he had carefully studied the methods for a Celestial Duke to create a Little World.

Duan Ling Tian’s Soul Energy is like God’s hand as he used it to manifest a space in his body. First, he created the general outline of the space. Then, he slowly filled the gaps with anything that he deemed necessary to complete it.

Swoosh!

At this moment, the sound of something moving at top speed rang in Duan Ling Tian’s body. It was heading to the place near his heart.

Something had happened while Duan Ling Tian was using his Soul Energy to complete the creation of his Little World! The main branch from the Divine Tree of Life that was rooted in Duan Ling Tian’s heart shone brilliantly before it shot into the Little World that Duan Ling Tian was still in the process of creating. After that, it seemed to dissolve into energy that merged with the Little World.

Soon after, Duan Ling Tian felt as though his 99 Heavenly Veins were boiling as Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy from outside surged into them. The Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy transformed into Celestial Origin Energy that was instantly sent to his heart through his Heavenly Veins. To be more precise, it was sent into the Little World he was creating.

“This…” Duan Ling Tian was baffled by this sudden development.
