Chapter 246: Chapter 242: Second Rank? Child?

In the Taiji Hall.

Xia Yi’s condition was dire, giving Chen Xuan the impression that he might collapse at any moment.

“My time has come!”

Xia Yi’s voice was very old, and at this moment he looked at Xia Lingyu, “My son, from now on, the Great Xia is yours!”

“Yes… Father!”

Xia Lingyu was exceptionally calm, even Chen Xuan was surprised.

But only she knew that she was the princess of the Great Xia, the empress of the Great Xia. She had to be strong, she wanted her father to leave without worry!

“You’ve worked hard!”

How could Xia Yi not know the sorrow in her heart, but unfortunately, she was born in the royal family, bearing the burden of the Great Xia, it was her responsibility.

“Let us begin!”

Xia Yi spoke no more, spreading his arms, and a vast amount of spiritual power surged from within him.

In an instant,

all the arrays within the great hall were activated.

“Boom…!”

The sound of rumbling echoed, and Chen Xuan extended a wisp of spiritual power.

Last time, he had felt that the arrays in the Taiji Hall were unusual; now he saw that these tens of thousands of arrays were actually a single array.

“Bang!”

“Bang!”

…

One by one, the arrays began to combine, and suddenly, outside the Taiji Hall, a beam of spiritual qi shot forth from the void.

Instantly, the spiritual qi within the great hall became even more dense.

“The array is complete!”

Xia Yi’s eyes widened, and with a furious shout, his head full of white hair danced wildly in the air.

“Boom!”

With a loud bang, the array was completed!

In the center of the great hall, a strange pattern appeared on the ground, flashing with dazzling white light.

At this moment, Xia Yi was gasping for breath, as if he might collapse at any moment.

Xia Lingyu instantly appeared beside him, supporting him.

“Chen Xuan… step in!”

Xia Yi extended a trembling hand, pointing at the pattern.

“Yes, Your Majesty!”

Chen Xuan dared not delay, his figure flickered and appeared within the pattern.

“This array is one-way; once you find the item to repair the World Spirit, you will have to find your own way back to the Human Realm.”

“Huff… huff…”

Xia Yi leaned entirely on Xia Lingyu’s body, gasping heavily, nearly at the brink of death.

“Moreover, I don’t know what dangers there may be within!”

“Whether the Human Realm can survive this calamity depends on you!”

Chen Xuan wore a solemn expression, bowing slightly to Xia Yi, and then he spoke, “I will return with the treasure to repair the World Spirit.”

In his calm voice, there was an unmatched confidence.

Xia Yi’s head rested on Xia Lingyu’s shoulder, and although he felt he would die soon, he did not feel any fear. Instead, he smiled, a very happy smile.

“I believe in you!”

With those words, he sent the final burst of spiritual power toward the array under Chen Xuan’s feet.

In an instant, a beam of light surged up from the ground.

Chen Xuan’s body slowly floated upward.

“Boom!”

The light column vanished, taking Chen Xuan with it, disappearing from the great hall.

“I entrust this to you!”

After uttering these three words slowly, Xia Yi could no longer hold on and slowly closed his eyes.

A generation of Emperor, for the Human Realm!

Finally, at this moment, he reached the end of his life.

“Father… you must be tired! Sleep now…”

“Have a good sleep…”

“When he returns, your son will wake you up, alright?”

Xia Lingyu lowered her head, looking at the lifeless Xia Yi.

“Ah…”

At that moment, Xia Lingyu could no longer control herself and began to weep uncontrollably.

In the Human Realm, her only family, her father, her emperor, was gone!

Xia Lingyu collapsed entirely, looking at Xia Yi lying in her arms!

“Father!”

A heart-wrenching cry resounded throughout the Taiji Hall.

…

In the Transmission Channel.

The overwhelming pressure made Chen Xuan feel like he was about to be crushed into a sphere.

Even with the light emitted by the World Spirit Stone enveloping him, it wasn’t enough.

“No way, if this continues, I won’t make it to the Supreme Domain before being crushed to death!”

Chen Xuan gritted his teeth against the intense pain, shouting, “System!”

…

[Realm: Martial Cultivator: First Grade (Immaculate (Ninth Level)), Spirit Cultivator: First Level (Divine Soul (Seventh Stage))]

[Cultivation Technique: Nine Elements Dao Skill (Immortal Grade) (Sixth Level (479,000/3,200,000)), Myriad Manifestation Skill (Tenth Level (435,000/4,080,000))]

[Skill Points: 5,883,000]

…

In the Transmission Channel, even the panel kept shaking incessantly.

“Huff… huff…”

Chen Xuan’s gaze fixed on the panel.

Ultimately, there wasn’t enough time to upgrade to Divine Soul Eighth Stage.

“This place shouldn’t belong to the Human Realm anymore.”

He had always refrained from upgrading the Nine Elements Dao Skill, fearing that once it became Immortal Grade, the World Spirit wouldn’t withstand it, causing the situation in the Human Realm to become even worse.

But here, there should be no problem.

“Upgrade Nine Elements Dao Skill!”

Chen Xuan shouted loudly.

A surging torrent appeared in his chest, instantly coursing through his entire body.

“Rumble, rumble!”

A series of rumbling sounds came from within him, and at this moment, Chen Xuan felt as if his blood was boiling after absorbing this torrent.

With each breath, he even felt a slight relief in the pressure of the Transmission Channel.

“Huff…”

Chen Xuan finally felt a bit more at ease.

He closed his eyes, operating the Nine Elements Dao Skill while simultaneously digesting the cultivation insights of the sixth level of the Nine Elements Dao Skill.

The channel was shrouded in darkness, but at this moment, Chen Xuan’s body was radiating a brilliant light.

Who knows how much time had passed.

Chen Xuan suddenly opened his eyes, two beams of light shooting out from them.

“Immortal Grade!”

His expression turned extremely excited, at this moment the pressure of the passage had no effect on him anymore.

“System!”

He summoned the panel again.

…

[Realm: Martial Cultivator: Immortal Grade (Initial), Spirit Cultivator: First Tier (Divine Soul (Seventh Tier))]

[Cultivation Technique: Nine Elements Dao Skill (Immortal Grade) (Seventh Layer (0/6.4 million)), Myriad Manifestation Skill (Tenth Layer (435,000/4.08 million))]

[Skill Points: 3.162 million]

…

“Finally reached the Immortal Grade!”

Chen Xuan couldn’t help but shout loudly.

But he quickly regained his composure, surrounded by darkness, but he could feel himself flying at high speed.

“How much longer?”

Although there was no sunset or sunrise here, breaking through to Immortal Grade had taken at least more than ten days.

“Never mind, cultivate!”

Chen Xuan hovered in mid-air, sitting cross-legged, and began cultivating directly.

Just after breaking through to Immortal Grade, it needed to be stabilized properly.

He did not know how long had passed.

Suddenly, the transmission channel started to vibrate.

Chen Xuan immediately ended his cultivation and stood up.

“Is this… have I arrived?”

Even though there was no distinction of day or night in the transmission channel, Chen Xuan felt it had been a long time.

Now it was finally coming to an end.

As long as he could successfully reach the Supreme Domain, it would be considered the first successful step.

Suddenly!

An invisible force appeared out of nowhere from behind, Chen Xuan’s body became uncontrollable,

“Boom!”

It felt as if the whole person was thrown out.

…

Supreme Domain, the boundless sea surface.

“Splash…”

A figure broke through the water, standing in mid-air.

It was Chen Xuan who had been kicked out by the transmission channel.

Frowning slightly, feeling very uncomfortable as he was soaking wet, he didn’t expect the exit of the transmission channel to be underwater.

A slight movement of spiritual power, instantly steam enveloped his whole body, and his clothes dried instantly.

“That’s better!”

His brows relaxed, and only then did he scan his surroundings.

“Is this the legendary Supreme Domain?”

The endless ocean, even using Spiritual Power, he couldn’t see the end.

Moreover, the spiritual qi here was very different from the Human Realm.

More pure, more intense, and there was something special about it.

Chen Xuan closed his eyes to absorb the spiritual qi, carefully sensing it.

“I see!”

After a long time, he slowly opened his eyes.

The spiritual qi in the Supreme Domain contained particles of similar attributes.

He didn’t quite understand.

But at this moment,

Chen Xuan faced a difficult situation, with not a single person in sight, he couldn’t understand the situation in the Supreme Domain at all.

Arriving here alone, he was like a blind man.

This was too dangerous.

“I must find someone as soon as possible, inquire about the situation in the Supreme Domain, what powers are there, their strength, and so on!”

As for the treasure to repair the World Spirit, it couldn’t be rushed, it had to be done step by step.

But—

In this endless sea, where would he find anyone?

“Forget it! Let’s leave it to luck!”

Chen Xuan muttered a sentence, activated his innate concealment, disguising himself as a Second Grade, and flew casually in one direction.

…

Time blinked, and Chen Xuan had been flying over the sea for more than a month.

Still, not a single person in sight.

Moreover, in the Supreme Domain, his life-saving Godly Step was actually unusable.

Simply put, the space here was far more stable than in the Human Realm, the Godly Step couldn’t tear the space, so naturally, it couldn’t be used.

As for other things, there was no significant impact.

Moreover, although half a month gained no results, at least his internal spiritual power became more pure after absorbing the spiritual qi of the Supreme Domain, leading to at least a more than thirty percent increase in strength compared to before.

“Please let me meet someone soon!”

Chen Xuan prayed in his heart, and there had to be someone, a woman.

It wasn’t that he couldn’t stand the loneliness, but the system required it!

Without women, how could he gain skill points?

Moreover, he always had a bit of worry: whether he could gain skill points in the Supreme Domain.

If not… then it would really be over.

…

Dozens of days later!

“That’s… an island!”

Chen Xuan immediately became excited, having drifted on the sea for about a month, all he saw was the sea, and his eyes were almost about to give up.

Now finally, an island appeared.

Even if there was no one, it would at least be a place to rest.

Excited, his internal spiritual power surged, his speed suddenly increased, and he turned into a stream of light heading towards the island.

Beside the island, two children about seven or eight years old were catching fish by the sea.

This was the seaside!

Even a slightly larger wave could sweep them away.

But the two showed no fear, instead as if it were a common occurrence.

“Brother Feng, this time I’ll definitely catch more than you!”

The slightly shorter boy, wearing a tight blue outfit, looked defiant, obviously having lost quite a few times before.

“Just you…!”

More than ten meters away, a boy in red clothes tilted his head, looking complacent, “Brother Long, you’re only Third Grade, I’m already Second Grade, how can you possibly win against me!”

At this moment, Chen Xuan had just arrived here and happened to hear the conversation between the two children.

He thought it was just child’s play.

But after a slight sensing, he was stunned on the spot!

The two children were indeed one Second Grade, one Third Grade!
