Chapter 138: Reaching The Castle Of Astral Benevolence

.......

"Pan Nu, huh...?"

"I know it's a weird name, but that is just what the people who birthed me decided to name me... How about yours?"

"My what?" Azmodeus inquired.

"...Your name... You have one, don't you?"

Pan Nu was really starting to believe that this man was a big, pretty idiot.

Azmodeus realized that he was being judged, but he still decided to respond, "My name is also an unusual one and far more out-of-place than yours."

"Oh yeah? What is it?"

Pan Nu was becoming increasingly curious about what he was talking about, as she even took the time to stop munching.

Azmodeus observed the expectant look in her gaze as he responded, "My name is Azmodeus—Azmodeus the Crimson Devil Lord."

"That really is an odd name, but I kind of like it."

After getting out those words with a small smile on her cute face, she once again got back to munching away at all the desserts on the endless buffet line.

Azmodeus watched the girl eat everything in sight with a satisfied look on her face as he lightly shook his head before taking a seat at a nearby window sill.

He wasted no time and went right to circulating his Elusive Ascension Technique, immediately noticing that the Qi inside of the Astral Leap Locomotive was countless times higher than what he possessed inside his Heaven Exploding Cave Abode, even with all the Formation Rune Array's in the mix.

With this level of Qi absorption, I should be able to break through to the Lunar Ascendancy Realm the moment we reach the Starry Expanse...

Furthermore, my foundation will be beyond impeccable, with no room for flaws.

Pan Nu turned her apathetic gaze toward the overly handsome man before replying, "We should be there right around-"

CREAK!

"Now."

She finished her words at the same time that the train took an abrupt halt, leaving one side of the windows still at the Train Station, while the other half found itself in an area filled with a wide assortment of luminous mushrooms, all of which lit up the gray and black sky like a place from Pandora!

Azmodeus was a little taken aback by the scenery on the right side of the train as he instantly moved through infinite stretches of space and yet but a mere few feet, all in order to get a better look at what lay outside.

There's no ground in this world... Just a glass screen of sorts... And of course, this glass screen extends out farther than the eye can see.

However, this infinite layer of space seems a little different than most, as there are clouds and stars below this sheet of glass.

Furthermore, there are what appear to be cultivators flying around inside the ground, and their cultivations: unknown...

He looked up from the ground floor and saw nothing except some form of floating blue castle that had its existence fluctuate in and out of reality, along with an untold number of luminously glowing green, yellow, and purple mushrooms, all of which were made of Laws and materials far beyond what a Low-Mortal World could produce.

"So, this is the place that I've heard so much about..."

"Yeah, the castle of Astral Benevolence, along with the Starry Shrooms... I've heard that absorbing a tenth of the essence of one of those things would allow the cultivator to progress straight through the ranks of the Starry Expanse, directly achieving the Moonlit Path Realm!"

"The Moonlit Path Realm!? Really!? To skip the Lunar Ascendancy, Comet's Passage, and Meteor Shower Realm is insane!"

"I know what you mean, but that is just the level of power contained within the Starry Shrooms that the Ten Principality Rulers of the Astral Benevolence Castle use as mere snacks!"

"How do you know so much, senior brother!?"

"Well, I come from the Azure Downfall World, so it's obvious that I would possess a lot more information about the Astral Leap Trial than what you all are privy to!"
