Burial World Realm

It took me a few hours to complete the formalities. I got permission for both of us to exit through the teleportation formation leading to the Nine Souls Galaxy.

To the ones outside, the Hidden Dragon Martial Sect is a mysterious place with unknown level of power. This didn't just apply to the Holy Light Galaxy. Even the ones in the Nine Souls Galaxy are not aware of this force. All they know is that it is force hidden from everyone and recruits their students with special conditions.

They are right in their assumption. After the last three months inside the sect, I finally understand the true depth of this power. Even with her improved cultivation, the Sect Master is not the strongest person inside the sect. Well, at least there are a few others on the same level as her.

I know for sure that the previous Sect Master is still alive and in closed door seclusion. No one really knows what his cultivation level is. The same could be said about the other hidden elders. Then, there were Ten Hidden Dragon Elders who are strong in their own right. The more I know about his force the more I feel relieved that I didn't start anything serious.

There is a lot about this starfield that I still don't know. The location of this starfield is also ambiguious. I also understand why the Holy Light Clan doesn't take offence to their indifference. However, there is one thing that I am sure of. Only the Nine Soul Sacred Clan is stronger that this sect inside the eastern region. As for the others, I am not sure as I am not perfectly aware of the power of these forces.

This is also a reason for my departure right now. I have this uneasy feeling that something is going to happen. My current strength is even stronger that the Sect Master's but still there is a sort of barrier between me and the others of the sect. Only a few familiar elders are willing to be associated with me. The others are somewhat hesitant for some reason.

My seclusion and constant state of activity after my admission into the sect also didn't help much. Even after all this time, no disciple came to me for anything. This just seems odd for some reason. Bu Lingxue was an exception.

She is one of the very few elders who actually knew many secrets of the sect. In fact, she is technically my ride back here. A new elder like me no matter how powerful I am would not be given the entrance details that easily. However, because of the Heavenly Pagoda's forbidden land discovery, I am being given an exception. I am only allowed to use that old trial formation to enter the Hidden Dragon starfield again. I still don't know where the main entrance formations are situated.

I am also beginning to realise the gravity of my own strength. I have still been looking at it in the form of numbers and levels. In doing so, I completely failed to realise to what extent my strength suddenly grew in the last few months. I went from being a talented junior to a powerful elder level character.

Even among the forces of the other galaxies, my current strength is also considered extremely high. However, I am different from them. My talent is way superior to them. So, if my strength doesn't increase accordingly, I would be wasting that talent.

I need to be more conscious of these aspects.

I first went to Xiaoxiao's palace to leave a message. When I reached there, I found her cultivating deep inside the palace. Her increase in cultivation is not that surprising considering the resources she used and the Dragon Vein Source slowly integrating with her own bloodline.

I then left a message to her servants and went back to my place. Before, I was going alone but now because of Bu Lingxue I had to slightly change my plans.

I will first go to the Black Ghost Palace to retrieve the Purple Sovereign's Bead. Then, from there I will go visit the Qin Clan's territory along with Bu Lingxue to explore the Fate Valley. If I have a chance, I will go visit Miaomiao to see what she is up to.

I also heard about the strength of Qin Clan. I am still confident in my strength to tackle them head on. The Sect Master doesn't know the full extent of my strength.

Even if we avoid a head on battle, I still have a last resort. I am still a Special Elder of Nine Souls Sacred Clan which gives me certain status in their territory.

This trip is going to be considerably long. The Black Ghost Palace, Qin Clan, Nine Soul Sacred Clan, Dragon Clan, Ancestral Martial Starfield. I also want to attempt the trial of the Great Monster Slayer Emperor's inheritance before coming back to the Sect.

Once I finish my business in Nine Souls Galaxy, I will part with Bu Lingxue. I found out something interesting about Bu Lingxue during the first challenge. Her talent in divination techniques is off the roof. Other than gaining some luckily chances, she reached this level all on her own. She worked on the previous techniques and made them her own by repeated trial and error.

All her unique divination and prophecy techniques are a result of her years of hard work. There was a very strong divination treasure inside the Spirit Enclave which the Sect used for generations.

Bu Lingxue however created her own techniques instead on depending on that treasure. She started from scratch and carefully constructed her own prophecy formations. This was also one of the reasons she is very famous through out the Sect. Even her predecessor was completely overwhelmed by her methods.

Since she had no basic benchmark she travelled to many places to seek knowledge from different divination experts. However, every divination expert without a doubt is a highly insecure person. Not a single one wants to divulge their techniques to the others. They fear that it would increase the competition and threaten their value.

Apparently even Sect Master searched for many years to find some snippets of knowledge for Bu Lingxue. Using these snippets she deduced the rest of it by her own analysis. Obviously that would be a very slow process.

And yet, she was just willing to give away all her hard work for her student. I saw her interaction with her student. Even if she is cold to the others, her treatment towards Xiao Bingbing was more like that of a strict older sister rather than a master.

The reason I gave her that position on the forbidden cultivation ground was because of this. Sure, I want the main inheritance of the Heaven Reaching God but the reason I want to help her get the opportunity inside the Heaven Reaching Fate Valley is also because of this.

I have grown rather soft compared to my time in the Ancestral Martial Starfield. Although my previous self was cut out for this cruel world, he lacked some maturity required a person of his strength.

At this stage, when someone becomes your enemy, you don't just obliterate them without hesitation. You should be wise enough to assess which tiger would become a threat if it was allowed back into the mountain.

That kind of maturity only develops if you gain experience and interact with wise older generation while developing your own individual ideals. My previous self got the experience part down but had non existent parental support in this area.

I did and I am going to be different.

I only had to wait for two days before the familiar presence showed up in my palace. Bu Lingxue successfully brokethrough 4th rank Martial Exalted. Her aura was also incredibly stable indicating how consolidated her current cultivation is.

That's not really a surprise. She was already at a point of breakthrough before she went into the formation. So, right now she was able to have a considerable increase in her cultivation. I bet she would breakthrough to 5th level Martial Exalted if she concentrated on her martial cultivation for a some years.

She then gave me a small smile and said,"Thank you." Then, she went back to her cold self.

I nodded and took out the permission tokens. I gave her one and said,"We can leave whenever we want but since you came out earlier than I expected, why don't we leave tomorrow morning?"

I hesitated a little but continued,"Although we know an approximate location of this Valley, there are many complicated aspects about this trip. We don't know how long this search is going to take place. So, you should let your disciple know that you would be away for a while."

She nodded and replied,"Alright, I have to arrange some things first. I will meet you at the teleportation formation."

She then left my palace. I went around and told a few of the familiar juniors that I will be leaving tomorrow. I also told them that this trip might last a while. I didn't want to disturb Xiaoxiao so, I gave Gu Yu'er all of my merit points. I requested her to transfer them to Xiaoxiao when she concludes her seclusion.

She happily complied and asked me not to worry. She then asked me to be careful and not act reckless. I have known this girl for only about three months but still she is concerned about me. It is nice to have someone concerned about you.

I then gave her a bright smile and said,"Don't worry, I will comeback Big Sister Yu'er". She widened her eyes and became very happy when she heard that.

I didn't want to embarrass myself so I disappeared.

I then went to the Heavenly Pagoda again and asked Elder Hong to keep an eye on Xiaoxiao if she comes out of the seclusion. I also requested him to make some time to train her combat skills inside the Hidden Dragon Tower.

He had a creepy smile on his face as he happily agreed to my request. Sorry, Xiaoxiao. This is for your own good. You need to be pushed to the limits in order to realise your potential.

I then went back to my palace and cultivated until the next morning.

I didn't waste any time and went to the teleportation formation that leads to the Nine Souls Galaxy. It was heavily guarded by the punishment hall. There were three Martial Exalted Experts among the guards of this place. The strongest of them was a 2nd rank Maritial Exalted Expert.

I was the first one to come and waited for Bu Lingxue. I didn't have to wait too long as she came after an hour.

She nodded slightly as both of us took out our tokens and went into the teleportation formation.

The Hidden Dragon Martial Sect had teleportation formations that led to different parts of the Nine Souls Galaxy.

We chose the one that is nearest to the Burial Ground Realm and departed.

After a while we reached the Nine Souls Galaxy. The first time I was here, I experienced a lot and gained a lot. We didn't waste any time and proceeded to the Burial Ground Realm.

Once I procure the Purple Sovereign Bead, I am sure both Eggy and Yu Sha would wake up. I really miss her a lot. She is the one who knows the previous me better than anyone. She is also the one who is closest to me in this universe.

After the old man gave me the wishes, I told him to shield their senses until they woke up. I didn't want them to know about the soul merge.

Soon, we crossed multiple teleportation formations and reached the Burial Ground Realm. There was something about this place that didn't feel right from the start. It might be the Asura Burial Ground or the gloomy aura that filled this entire planet.

I turned to Bu Lingxue and asked,"How do you want to do this? Will you stay somewhere here and wait for me. It will take a few days for me to take away what I need. This is groom selection and women won't be allowed to enter."

She shook her head and said,"No, I am curious about this place. So, I have an idea. According to what you explained, you need to participate in this groom selection. I will act as your fellow Elder and accompany you."

One the way here, I explained her some things about this place that I learnt from Song Yun.

This wasn't good.

I narrowed my eyes and said,"No way. Once we are in the vicinity of the Black Ghost Palace, you won't be able to use your martial power. There are some experts here whose spirit power is stronger than yours. I am also going to offend these people by looking for that object. You will be in danger then."

We went back and forth until she suddenly said with an annoyed expression,"I have a treasure that can bypass the restriction of a formation at that level. So, it's fine."

I was surprised a little and said,"Looks like I underestimated your means. Alright, be careful then. There are not a lot of people here who can actually threaten you."

She stayed silent for a few seconds and nodded. I then took out the token Song Yun gave me and inserted my martial power. The token turned into a ray of light and went into a certain direction. The token has already recorded our position. So, Song Yun should not have much difficulty in reaching us.

I then told Bu Lingxue,"By the way, do not offend my friend. She is a bit lively but otherwise fine. Her background is a league higher than our Sect. She is also very strong."

After waiting for a few minutes a spatial fluctuation occurred in front of us presenting a human form. It was Song Yun.

A lot of trouble will follow wherever MC goes from here.
