Chapter 495: Cang Feng Eldritch World (3)

Wu Yuan's heart trembled.

Many Astral Monarchs perished? It was truly madness.

“Every few million to a hundred million years, a gruesome war erupts between these two forces.” High Immortal Nan Yin said, “Occasionally, powerhouses from the Eldritch Court or Immortal Court arrive from other macrocosms.”

“The flames of war can easily consume half the macrocosm. Each immortal nation will be thrown into turmoil, and the mainlands of the immortal continents nearly shattered.” High Immortal Nan Yin sighed.

Wu Yuan held his breath as he listened.

Though he hadn’t witnessed it firsthand, he could visualize the sheer destruction and violence.

“So, in our Eternal Sun Immortal World, no matter how dazzling your talent shines, the worst threat you could face is an Archimmortal from an enemy sect.” High Immortal Nan Yin emphasized.

“But from the moment you step into the Cang Feng Eldritch World, as long as you reveal your talent, your name will be on the hit list of the Voltari Temple."

"The brighter you shine, the more terrifying and crazed the Voltari Temple’s assassination methods will be."

"There has been more than one instance in history where a super powerhouse from the Voltari Temple stormed into the training grounds of the Cang Feng Eldritch World, massacring their young geniuses," High Immortal Nan Yin said solemnly.

"And likewise, the Cang Feng Eldritch World will do whatever they can to assassinate the emerging top-tier geniuses from Voltari Temple."

Wu Yuan shuddered. He understood what his master was trying to say. Once his identity as an Eldritch Sovereign's disciple was exposed, and given his weak strength, he would be the perfect target for the Voltari Temple's assassins.

If his body refiner self died, at least his qi refiner self would still live.

But if both were exposed, the super powerhouses from the Voltari Temple would likely attempt to annihilate him completely through karma.

"Nothing is absolutely confidential; once you speak of it, it can be leaked," High Immortal Nan Yin said. "Your body refiner self is inherently an eldritch cultivator."

"Being accepted as a disciple of an Eldritch Sovereign is a great opportunity. I understand your reluctance to refuse such a temptation."

"So, I just ask one thing of you: do not leak this secret. From now on, you are only Li Xia. You have no body refiner self. Understood?" High Immortal Nan Yin said sternly.

"Yes, I am just Li Xia," Wu Yuan nodded.

Caution was the key to survival. The more cautious you are, the longer you live.

"Additionally, you don't need to participate in the Moonsilver Tournament," High Immortal Nan Yin suddenly shook his head. "Nurture your qi sea for a while longer and then break through."

"Don’t participate in the Moonsilver Tournament?" Wu Yuan was shocked.

"It doesn't make much sense. Your body refiner self can already seize the Golden Core Bloodforge King title. Participating in the Moonsilver Tournament won't sharpen you any further," High Immortal Nan Yin declared.

"There’s no need to waste any more time. You can choose to break through whenever you wish.”

"Understood," Wu Yuan nodded without hesitation.

"Alright, you can go now," High Immortal Nan Yin issued the order. "Return in three days for your next tutoring session." V/\IssịT n0(v)eL/b(i)(n).co/m for the b/est novel reading experi/en/ce

Wu Yuan bowed respectfully and departed.

My disciple. High Immortal Nan Yin mused inwardly, a flicker of astonishment in his eyes. Just what did he do in the Bloodforge Spacetime that is a secret even to me?

The Bloodforge Devil Hall is eager to send him to the Cang Feng Eldritch World at the first opportunity and the Eldritch Sovereign wants to take him as a disciple right away? High Immortal Nan Yin couldn't fathom it.

He knew too well the stringent requirements Eldritch Sovereign-level beings had for accepting disciples.

Dao comprehension was but one aspect. There were also considerations of character and many other factors.

How many years has it been? Not even twenty. High Immortal Nan Yin shook his head slightly, feeling as though he were dreaming.

Finally, the countless fragments of spacetime vanished without a trace, and an endless, vast continent was unveiled before Wu Yuan.

Such rich spiritual qi, such prosperous cities. Wu Yuan stood beside Astral Monarch Hou Qu, looking down from above.

The vast land stretched beyond the eye. Built on the land was a city of boundless prosperity. It a thousand, no, ten thousand times more bustling than any first-tier city on the Redmoon Immortal Continent, teeming with countless immortal cultivators.

With just a glance, Wu Yuan spotted many immortals.

The spiritual qi there was even more concentrated.

"This is the Cang Feng Continent, the core of the Cang Feng Eldritch World. It's more than a hundred times the size of a usual immortal continent, and its stability is magnified by hundreds, if not thousands of times," Astral Monarch Hou Qu explained.

"Cang Feng City spans hundreds of millions of li, forming the core of Cang Feng Continent and serving as the sacred land of eight hundred eldritch divine nations."

"Many Astral Monarchs, Astral Lords, Archimmortals, and Archeldritches from the eight hundred eldritch divine nations in the eldritch world cultivate in seclusion within Cang Feng City year round," Astral Monarch Hou Qu continued.

"See those floating halls? Those are the dwellings of Archimmortals and Archeldritches at least."

"Within the entire Greenridge Macrocosm, Cang Feng City ranks among the top five sacred cultivation sites."

Wu Yuan gazed at the seemingly unending floating halls. A rough estimate showed that there were at least a million of them.

A million Archimmortals/Archeldritches? All gathered in a city spanning hundreds of millions of li? No wonder it was known as the legendary sacred cultivation grounds of the entire Greenridge Macrocosm. Its reputation was well-deserved.

"Let's go, I’ll take you to meet the Eldritch Sovereign." Astral Monarch Hou Qu said.

Their speed skyrocketed as they soared through the sky above Cang Feng City.

Clouds and mist obstructed their path, but Astral Monarch Hou Qu advanced relentlessly, dispersing layer after layer of mist until an expanse of sprawling halls unfolded before Wu Yuan's eyes.

Figures flitted between the halls, vanishing into the clouds. Every one of them exuded formidable auras, clearly of Archimmortal and Archeldritch calibers.

Simultaneously, amidst the endless halls, squads of armored soldiers patrolled vigilantly.

Among the countless halls, four stood out, towering and magnificent, each dominating a corner of the land.

"Remember to be respectful when you meet the Eldritch Sovereign," Astral Monarch Hou Qu advised. "The Eldritch Sovereign may wish to take you as a disciple, but it hasn't been decided yet."

Wu Yuan nodded obediently.

Astral Monarch Hou Qu led Wu Yuan onward.

"Astral Monarch."

"Greetings, Astral Monarch Hou Qu." Along the way, powerhouses paid their respects, and even the armored soldiers bowed.

Clearly, an Astral Monarch held an exceedingly high status in Cang Feng City.

Finally, Astral Monarch Hou Qu arrived before the most imposing hall on the left, shrouded in a faint purple mist.

Two black-armored soldiers stood guard, their auras immensely powerful, rivaling that of Astral Lord Yin He.

Astral Lords, guarding a door? Wu Yuan gawked inwardly.

Then he noticed that the two black-armored guards at the gate wore proud expressions. Clearly, not every Astral Lord had the privilege of guarding the Eldritch Sovereign’s residence.

Upon seeing Wu Yuan and his companion, one of the black-armored guards smiled. "Astral Monarch Hou Qu." His gaze fell on Wu Yuan. "Wu Yuan?"

Wu Yuan nodded.

"The Eldritch Sovereign is expecting you. Head straight to the hall. The Eldritch Sovereign is waiting for you."
