Chapter 510: Heaven Tier, Meeting Master (2)
Within the Second Origin Eldritch Field, on a void continent.
Oh? My Little Junior Brother has actually claimed the Heaven-tier title? Chang Hong, who was in secluded cultivation, received the news.
I really underestimated him. As expected, my judgment is still far inferior to Senior Brother's. Chang Hong sighed inwardly. A hint of a smile appeared. This is fine too.
At least his current performance won't tarnish our master's reputation. Chang Hong shelved all thoughts about Wu Yuan and resumed his cultivation.
He bore no ill will towards Wu Yuan personally. It was just that he previously thought Wu Yuan wasn’t worthy of becoming a disciple of the Eldritch Sovereign due to his weak talent and strength.
...
The Cang Feng Continent, vast and expansive, spanned hundreds of billions of li. Within this vast continent were different spatial layers and many hidden worlds.
One such hidden world had a diameter of over a hundred million li. It was inhabited by countless demonic beasts with bizarre appearances, most of which had extremely low intelligence and were exceedingly savage, killing each other and even devouring their own kind.
Yet, there were a few demonic beasts that were exceptionally docile.
On a stretch of barren land, wild grass swayed in the wind. Eldritch Sovereign Kua Chi sat in lotus position, the gentle breeze bringing him an inexplicable sense of tranquility.
The deduction of Life.
But the lives I create either cannot reproduce normally or cannot generate sentient intelligence. Eldritch Sovereign Kua Chi pondered deeply.
His powerful immortal consciousness effortlessly enveloped the entire world, observing the movements of countless lives.
Swish! Countless points of light converged, forming a dark-robed phantom.
"Master." The dark-robed phantom bowed respectfully.
“What’s the matter?” Eldritch Sovereign Kua Chi asked softly.
As one of the rulers of the eldritch world, his subordinates were powerful and numerous; most matters were delegated to them.
The black-robed phantom before him was in charge of internal intelligence within the eldritch world.
“It’s about Wu Yuan, the disciple that you took in recently,” the black-robed phantom said respectfully, “He has applied for a root establishment treasure and requested to become a member of the Fourth Origin Eldritch Field.”
“Oh?” Kua Chi’s brows furrowed slightly. “Is that all? Follow the standard procedures. There’s no need to give him special treatment just because he’s my disciple.”
He felt a twinge of displeasure in his heart. He was currently at a crucial moment in his cultivation.
“Sovereign, under normal circumstances, there would be no issue. But he has just become a heaven-tier member of the Fifth Origin Eldritch Field and is requesting a Semi-Legendary root establishment treasure.” The black-robed shadow continued respectfully.
“Moreover, he is asking for a qi refiner type treasure. I thought it was inappropriate and decided to report this to you.”
“Heaven-tier member of the Fifth Origin Eldritch Field?” Kua Chi was slightly taken aback, somewhat surprised. “He arrived in the Fifth Origin Eldritch Field just over three years ago.”
“Yes.” The black-robed shadow nodded.
He wasn’t surprised in the least, as he considered it normal for a disciple of an Eldritch Sovereign to progress so rapidly.
In fact, Wu Yuan’s progress seemed a bit slow to him.
“No problem. I understand. There’s no need to worry about this matter. You may leave,” Kua Chi commanded.
“Yes.” The black-robed shadow respectfully acknowledged and swiftly dissipated.
On the desolate plain, only Eldritch Sovereign Kua Chi remained.
In just over three years, he's become the heaven-tier member of the Fifth Origin Eldritch Field? With a mere thought, Eldritch Sovereign Kua Chi unleashed his immense immortal consciousness, diving deep into the Cang Feng Eldritch Realm.
What kind of existence was he? His immortal consciousness could easily descend from a higher spacetime dimension upon any region of an immortal continent’s spacetime territory.
At that moment, Cen Jiang and other Void Refiner servants felt the aura too. They left their respective posts, trembling in fear as they knelt. The unseen pressure was terrifying.
"Astral Monarch." Wu Yuan bowed slightly.
The visitor was indeed the burly Astral Monarch Hou Qu clad in battle armor.
"Come with me." With a wave of his hand, Astral Monarch Hou Qu enveloped Wu Yuan in an invisible force, and the two swiftly departed from the void continent, leaving behind a group of bewildered servants.
"Back then, it was the Astral Monarch who personally brought Master here. Barely any time has gone by, and the Astral Monarch is meeting Master again?"
"Could it be that Master is a disciple of the Astral Monarch?"
"It’s possible." Several Void Refiner servants whispered among themselves.
"Shut up, all of you," Cen Jiang hissed.
She, too, was puzzled, sensing that her master was incredibly mysterious.
First, Jiang Huan, whose status rivaled the Astral Monarchs, frequently visited this continent residence.
And now, the Astral Monarch had summoned their master again?
...
Astral Monarch Hou Qu enveloped Wu Yuan in his power as they traveled.
"Wu Yuan, your performance is impressive. Becoming a heaven-tier member so quickly, even if it's only within the Fifth Origin Eldritch Field, is still a rare achievement," Astral Monarch Hou Qu praised with a smile. "The Eldritch Sovereign gave me explicit orders to bring you to meet him."
"Master?" Wu Yuan was slightly taken aback.
"Indeed, this hardly ever happens. Haha, actually, the Eldritch Sovereign rarely intervenes in his disciples' affairs. He mostly gives them free reign to forge their own paths. Your Senior Brother Jiang Huan was also left in the Origin Eldritch Field for hundreds of years before being summoned again," Astral Monarch Hou Qu laughed. "You are an exception."
"Oh?" Wu Yuan's heart stirred.
He vaguely guessed that the master's summons might be related to the root establishment treasure he applied for.
Before long, they arrived.
This time, Astral Monarch Hou Qu did not take Wu Yuan to the temple but instead tore through multiple spaces, arriving at a vast, desolate world.
So many demonic beasts. Wu Yuan immediately noticed the extraordinary nature of this world.
Swiftly, the two landed on a broad prairie where Eldritch Sovereign Kua Chi, clad in beast hide, sat calmly on the grass.
Not far away, a few demonic beasts roamed.
"Eldritch Sovereign," Astral Monarch Hou Qu landed and greeted respectfully. "I’ve brought Wu Yuan."
"Master," Wu Yuan also greeted respectfully.
"Hou Qu, there's something I need your assistance with," Eldritch Sovereign Kua Chi said softly, taking out a storage bracelet with a flip of his hand, "Take this treasure and head to the Redmoon Immortal Continent once more."
"Don't let anyone know of this. I've sent you the specific instructions through the eldritch voidrealm. You may leave now," Eldritch Sovereign Kua Chi commanded bluntly.
"Understood," Astral Monarch Hou Qu responded respectfully, though still somewhat confused. He accepted the storage bracelet and swiftly departed from this world. [1]
Wu Yuan was left alone with Eldritch Sovereign Kua Chi.
"The storage bracelet contains the root establishment treasure I selected for your qi refiner self," Eldritch Sovereign Kua Chi said with a faint smile.
"One Semi-Legendary treasure, perfectly suited for your qi refiner self."
1. decided to leave it as that hahaha ☜
