I Fabricated the Techniques, but My Disciple Really Mastered Them?
Chapter 1043: Searching for Hong Ze Domain, A Powerful Finger Bone (2)“Then, he asked with some confusion, ‘Why are there only seven Masters of Domain among The Seven Great Domains?’
The seven of Taicang were very strong, having hunted numerous True Spirits, including some that were comparable to the Master of Domain level.
But aside from the seven of Taicang, none, including the Heavenly Tiger, had reached the level of Master of Domain, despite having wisdom and cultivation methods.
‘In the Land of Imperishable, Master of Domain-level True Spirits are not so common. This True Spirit was likely slain by one of the seven of Taicang. Although we have gained wisdom and cultivation methods, compared to these powerful True Spirits, we are still very young.
Moreover, we have received the purple light transformation, creating a minor realm, essentially changing the nature of our existence. We require time to break through the barriers, and that is what we lack—time, not the capability to reach the Master of Domain Realm.’
The Azure Sea Turtle sighed and explained, ‘The universe’s formation requires time to grow, and so do we. Furthermore, the Master of Domain was defined after opening the realms, and even among Masters of Domain, there can be significant differences in strength.
One who has opened a realm is a true Master of Domain, with strength far exceeding that of a True Spirit at the Master of Domain level.’
After some thought, the Azure Sea Turtle added, ‘In fact, before we gained wisdom, our strength seemed comparable to that of a Master of Domain level True Spirit, but changes occurred after gaining wisdom, as we are not mindless beasts.
It feels like the moment of gaining wisdom was our true birth, akin to a newborn child, requiring time to grow. Perhaps this is the price of gaining wisdom.’
Xu Yan asked in surprise, ‘So, after gaining wisdom, your strength weakened and requires cultivation to increase?’The Azure Sea Turtle shook its head and said, ‘Perhaps, perhaps not. I do not know, as our pre-wisdom memories are vague, but it’s a feeling that we were very strong, nothing more.
Whether this is a misconception, I cannot say. Perhaps Taicang knows, as some followed Taicang before gaining wisdom, and only Taicang knows whether there was a change in strength before and after.’
After exploring this giant mountain, the four and the turtle continued their journey, moving farther away from the Great Wilderness Domain and deeper into the Land of Imperishable, where the likelihood of encountering True Spirits increased.
Due to the distinct difference in aura between them and the Imperishable True Spirits, these Spirits became particularly attentive, leading to inevitable battles with each encounter.
Xu Yan and the others took this opportunity to hone their Martial Arts and cultivate their Divine Skills.
There was even an instance when they encountered a True Spirit horde led by several Realm Master-level True Spirits, and they could only engage in skirmish without direct confrontation before escaping.
‘Old Turtle, how far are we from the Hong Ze Domain?’
Meng Chong gazed at the boundless chaos and scratched his head, asking.
‘We’re almost at the original location of the Hong Ze Domain.’
The Azure Sea Turtle replied solemnly.
A day later, Xu Yan and the others noticed that the Land of Imperishable ahead seemed even darker, with more violent Spiritual Energy.
The Azure Sea Turtle slowed its pace, exhaling to quell the rising fear in its heart, and said, ‘The Hong Ze Domain originally lay right there!’
Now by looking around, not to mention a giant realm, there wasn’t even a trace of a small hill, indicating that the Hong Ze Domain had drifted away from this place.
‘Continue forward, and we should be able to find the Hong Ze Domain. The drifting direction of the realms follows some patterns. Based on my calculations, the Hong Ze Domain should continue following its previous drifting trajectory.’
The Azure Sea Turtle accelerated its pace.
Xu Yan and his companions looked forward eagerly, about to witness one of The Seven Great Domains—Hong Ze Domain, though it’s a dead realm, it’s still complete.
Even a dead realm is a Supreme Treasure, holding significant value for their insight at the Domain Realm level.
Perhaps they could gain revelations from the dead realm and thus rapidly elevate their strength.
Another day passed, and they still saw nothing but endless chaos with no sign of the realm.
The Azure Sea Turtle was puzzled.
‘It shouldn’t be. The Hong Ze Domain was already dead, having lost control, so its drifting speed shouldn’t be fast.’
‘Is there a possibility that the Imperishable Temple took the Hong Ze Domain?’
Fang Hao asked seriously.
‘Unlikely.’
The Azure Sea Turtle shook its head, saying, ‘The Imperishable Temple has no interest in dead realms.’
After pondering for a while, it said, ‘Perhaps some accident accelerated the drift of the Hong Ze Domain or caused it to deviate from its original course.’
The Azure Sea Turtle surveyed the surroundings, adjusting slightly its direction, ‘Based on my calculations, the deviation shouldn’t be too large; it just might take a bit more time to locate.’
Xu Yan nodded, understanding that entering the Land of Imperishable was about exploration and training, with the search for the Hong Ze Domain being not the sole purpose.
Four and the turtle continued their search for the Hong Ze Domain, and another day passed.
‘That mountain seems strange, appearing as if there’s a fire burning inside.’
Xu Yan suddenly remarked in surprise.
Meng Chong and the others followed his gaze to a distant mountain on the left, which stood towering like a massive beast.
Judging from its scale, it was undoubtedly a True Spirit comparable to the Master of Domain level and a strong one at that.
‘Let’s go, have a look!’
The Azure Sea Turtle immediately headed towards the mountain. As they approached, Xu Yan was astonished, seeing through his Minor Heavenly Eye that a glow resembling the evening glow enveloped the mountain, becoming more intense as they got closer.
‘Why is it hot here? Does this True Spirit have the power of fire, and even after its death, the power origin within it has not completely dissipated?’
The Azure Sea Turtle speculated in puzzlement, ‘But from the mountain’s appearance, this True Spirit has been dead for a long time, and it seems to have been killed. How could there still be remnants of its power origin?’
‘Let’s explore inside to find out.’
Xu Yan moved swiftly, landing atop the mountain in an instant.
Meng Chong and the others followed closely.
‘Inside the mountain, there seems to be a kind of flame. It should be a treasure. This fire might aid in Artifact Refining, so let’s see what treasure it is.’
Fang Hao said excitedly.
‘This intense sensation of heat, it feels familiar.’
The Azure Sea Turtle’s eyes were filled with uncertainty.
‘Have you encountered it before?’
Fang Hao raised his brow and asked.
‘It’s not that I’ve encountered it, but the aura of this fire…’
Finding an entrance to the mountain’s interior, the Azure Sea Turtle quickly entered, eager to confirm its suspicions.
Xu Yan and the others followed closely.
‘Old Turtle, tell us, what’s unique about the aura of this fire?’
Xu Yan asked curiously.
Upon entering the mountain, their eyes were met by a vision of radiant light like a red evening glow, with the heat becoming increasingly suffocating.
The walls of the passage were incredibly smooth as if scorched by flames.
Boom!
A terrifying wave of heat surged towards them. Though their strength was considerable, they still felt as if they were being roasted.
Inside the mountain stood a massive cavern with walls smooth as porcelain, illuminated by the luminous red glow.
The source of the glow and heat was a bone approximately a foot long at the center of the cavern—apparently a finger bone!
The red finger bone was embedded in the center of the cavern, without any visible flames, yet emanating searing heat.
It appeared as though the entire cavern inside the giant mountain was burned open by this finger bone.
Xu Yan looked back towards the entrance, deducing from its location that it might have been at the mouth of the fallen True Spirit.
The finger bone seemed to have pierced through the True Spirit’s mouth, or perhaps it was bitten off and swallowed into the body by the True Spirit.
However, the immense flame power contained within the finger bone incinerated the True Spirit’s innards, leading to its demise.
A severed finger had obliterated a Master of Domain-level True Spirit, indicating the finger’s owner had incredible power.
Xu Yan and his three companions exchanged a glance, each forming a conjecture in their hearts, utterly shocked by the devastating battle that had occurred here.
Of course, it was also possible that the battle had not occurred here, instead the True Spirit, severely wounded, fled the scene and collapsed in this location!”
