Longevity Martial Arts: Starting from Inner Core Skill

Chapter 732: Chapter 1 Human Traces in the Starry Sky Secret Realm_2

In the year 129 of the New Era, Desire True Monarch discovered that Source Star seemed reluctant to cause large-scale casualties, so he hid among the crowd. Nevertheless, he was eventually lured out by a strategy, and ten starships fired simultaneously, blasting him to smithereens.

From the year 123 to the year 129 of the New Era, nearly seven years passed, and the war among the ten worlds came to an end.

Datong began sending people to handle the aftermath, and it was the busiest time for the exchange of military honors.

Meanwhile, Wang Sheng awoke from his cultivation.

It was not the end of the interdimensional war that had stirred him awake, but he learned of the outcome as soon as he did.

“Has it really ended already? It took so little time; it was quicker than I expected!”

This time, without the aid of his avatars, facing two realms at the Eighth Realm, the conflict ended within ten years, much quicker than he had imagined.

“Just in time to fulfill a promise.”

Years and decades had passed; his progress in Refining God and Returning to Void had reached ninety-one percent.

His knowledge of time had also improved significantly.

Time Retrospection would be even easier.

There were more people to resurrect this time, but for Wang Sheng, it was even easier.

Soon, he finished handling the resurrections and also took the opportunity to deploy a wave of Virtual Worlds.

Having dealt with these matters, he then condensed an avatar and gave it a long spear.

The spear, forged from the finest materials currently found on Source Star, had been consecrated for seven years, imbued with Divine Skills, and paired with the avatar, making it extremely formidable.

And all this was in preparation for the main purpose of his emergence from seclusion.

The Starry Sky Secret Realm discovered by the Cultivator World was about to open, and setting off now would be just in time.

With the situation unclear, he did not intend to risk himself but would send his avatar instead.

“An avatar along with a consecrated weapon is no weakling even in the Ninth Realm. It should be able to clarify the situation. If there’s an accident in spite of this, I’ll abandon the idea.”

The avatar, formed using methods from the Virtual World to condense a split self, could receive his consciousness but would not affect his main body too much.

In the event of trouble, the biggest loss would be a spear consecrated for six or seven years.

That meant little to him.

Once prepared, his main body entered seclusion once more. Dividing his attention, part of his consciousness entered the avatar and then headed to the Cultivator World.

Roughly twenty years had passed since Datong took control of the Cultivator World, and although the thoughts of many people had yet to fully turn around, huge changes had already taken place.

In addition to the Virtual World, there were satellites monitoring the vicinity of the Cultivator World.

But all the satellites failed to detect a figure rushing out of the world and flying towards the depths of space.

This figure was naturally Wang Sheng’s avatar.

Although the records left by the Cultivator World did not contain detailed information about the Starry Sky Secret Realm, there were indeed Star Maps.

These maps were the result of thousands of years of exploration and were very safe to travel by.

Even if something unexpected happened along the way, the avatar at the Ninth Realm was able to handle it with ease.

Before long, a year passed.

Wang Sheng arrived at the endpoint shown on the Star Map.

In fact, once in this region of space, he didn’t need the map to find the place, as it was blatantly obvious.

In front of him, countless meteors converged to form a huge vortex-shaped nebula, the area of which was twice the size of Source Star, which had already gone through nearly ten stages of advancement.

The meteors seemed to revolve slowly but were, in reality, driven by a mysterious force. Even a Seventh Realm powerhouse could be seriously injured if struck carelessly.

Those of lesser cultivations dared not approach; otherwise, they would become part of the nebula, trapped there forever.

To enter beneath the Seventh Realm, one must be led by a Seventh Realm or higher power, and even then, they must proceed with extreme caution.

And in the middle of the vortex was a mysterious entrance.

“The entrance must be the gateway to the Starry Sky Secret Realm… Regardless, let’s go in and take a look.”

The vortex nebula’s power was strengthened by a mysterious force; it was formidable, but to Wang Sheng, it was of no consequence. In the blink of an eye, he arrived in front of the passage and without hesitation, entered.

The instant he went in, far away on Source Star, his main body opened its eyes.

“To think it could attempt to sever our connection… It seems this Starry Sky Secret Realm is not simple at all, to even momentarily affect me.”

Just as his avatar entered the Starry Sky Secret Realm in a flash,

Wang Sheng’s body on Source Star lost contact with the avatar, and it was only after he spurred his mana and used even more Primordial Spirit Power that the connection was restored.

It must be understood that he was currently at the stage of Refining God and Returning to Void, and the progress of his Immortal Embryo had reached over 90%, standing at the peak of this realm and exceedingly close to the next qualitative change— the Tenth Realm.

Still, the connection had been severed and needed an increased investment to be restored.

One could imagine how formidable the power of the Starry Sky Secret Realm was.

This made Wang Sheng even more attentive.

He submerged his mind once again, exploring with all his might.

After his avatar entered the vortex nebula’s central hole, what followed was a passage.

“Space passage…” Wang Sheng released his Primordial Spirit Power, seeking to probe this space passage.

Ultimately, he did indeed discern something.

“Although the method of opening this space passage differs from my own, it indeed bears artificial traces; someone powerful has forged this passage…”

He did not wait to continue his investigation when the passage abruptly ejected him.

Following the space passage, Wang Sheng no longer had the intention to study the passageway further, foreseeing from the vortex nebula’s formation that the passage was not naturally formed; there was nothing worth studying.

At this moment, his attention was wholly captured by the scenery before him.

It was a vast and expansive forest; as strong winds blew, countless trees bent as though hurricanes were stirring in the ocean. In a flash, waves surged tumultuously, with a ceaseless thunderous roar, as if each mighty tree had grown for tens of thousands of years.

Beyond the forest lay a vast valley, where towering mountains shrouded in mist reached the clouds. Between the mountains, rivers roared with waves, waterfalls cascaded thousands of feet into deep abysses, and rocks frequently sheared away from the peaks to plummet into the valley below.

Even further afield, the scenery varied greatly.

It seemed to be a serene and vibrant world, apparently devoid of any danger.

But Wang Sheng knew that appearances could be deceiving.

If there were no dangers, then the inhabitants of the Cultivator World wouldn’t be confined to merely the Seventh Realm after thousands of years.

Without hesitation, Wang Sheng descended into the vast forest, expanding his Divine Thought as he went.

Before long, he furrowed his brow.

“A portion of my Primordial Spirit Power is suppressed; indeed, just like the channel, this Starry Sky Secret Realm also bears the traces of manipulation.”

He increased the output of his Primordial Spirit Power and started to probe this world.

After a while, he withdrew his Primordial Spirit Power.

“This Starry Sky Secret Realm is even larger than I imagined… The Primordial Spirit Power, even when suppressed, is immensely vast, yet it is unable to cover the entirety of the secret realm. Most crucially, the rules within this secret realm are comprehensive, indistinguishable from the starry sky.”

With his Primordial Spirit Power expanded, his intentions were not limited to terrain reconnaissance.

He was probing for deeper layers of existence.

The laws were among the elements.

After exploring, he learned that while this secret realm seemed similar to the Resource Secret Realm, in fact, its rules were complete, no different from those of an intact planet.

Even the starry expanse here was of a higher level than Source Star—this much was evident from the energy levels.

The energy within the Starry Sky Secret Realm was dense, even higher than Source Star’s in some aspects.

“Could it be that no civilization truly exists here?”

Having understood the basics, Wang Sheng suspected that his previous conjecture might have been mistaken.

If even plants existed here, it suggested suitability for living beings to inhabit.

His earlier prediction based on information from the Cultivator World suggested that the Starry Sky Secret Realm should lack civilization, which now seemed blatantly contradicted by his direct observations.

“From any perspective, the existence of a civilization is possible, especially since even the space passage has been tampered with.”

Wang Sheng continued to move forward, and before long, he stumbled upon a Spiritual Medicine plant.

Although of average quality, it was a find he made just by walking around casually after his initial entry.

Having discovered this, he did not hurry off but instead started to explore slowly…

The story of the new volume begins, and the story of the Overlord will continue, but the main focus will shift!

Also, correcting a bug from the second to last Chapter of the previous volume, the progress of the Immortal Embryo was 86%, not 96; I accidentally wrote the outline data into the Chapter…)
