Nine Transformations of the True Spirit.

Chen Yuan was shocked. He suddenly remembered what the Ghost Demon General had said. This Taixu Juntian Axe should be the Xuantian Spiritual Treasure that split open the spatial passage between the Spirit Realm and the Burning Demon Realm, forcing the Great Sage of the Overlord Turtle to seal it with his own body.

It is only natural that such a treasure is in the hands of the Heaven-Slaying Pavilion.

Chen Yuan had heard of the Fatian Pavilion before. Before his ascension, he had asked Qin Wuyai about the Spirit Realm, and Qin Wuyai mentioned the Fatian Pavilion.

Later, Chen Yuan entered the Demon Burning Realm, rescued Yun Jinyue, Liu Tianhan and others, and heard the name of the Heaven-Slaying Pavilion from them.

After meeting Yuan Shuheng and Han Xuan, Chen Yuan inquired about the situation in the Spirit Realm from them, and the words "Fatian Pavilion" appeared frequently in their mouths.

The Heaven-Slaying Pavilion is not the name of a single sect, but rather an alliance of sects established by all the Mahayana sects in the Spirit Realm, which is in charge of the human race's conquest of the myriad worlds.

Any sect in the Spirit Realm that wants to conquer other realms must obtain permission from the Heaven-Slaying Pavilion and offer it a large amount of cultivation resources.

Chen Yuan initially thought this was a case of a major sect bullying other small and medium-sized sects and independent cultivators by virtue of its strength, but now it seems there is more to the story.

He asked telepathically, "When the various sects of the Spirit Realm conquer other realms, is it because they all rely on the Taixu Juntian Axe to cleave open spatial passages?"

Han Xuan replied telepathically, "That's right. It is precisely because of the advantage of the Taixu Juntian Axe that the various sects of the Spirit Realm can conquer other realms so easily."

After Han Xuan finished speaking, Elder Yuan said leisurely, "Every interface has an interface barrier. The larger the interface, the stronger the interface barrier. It is extremely difficult to break through it using ordinary means."

"The Taixu Juntian Axe is most skilled in this art. Once the specific location of a realm is determined, it can be reported to the Fatian Pavilion to obtain the axe light of the Taixu Juntian Axe, which can easily break through the realm barrier, open up a spatial passage, and send a large army of cultivators to conquer this realm."

Chen Yuan turned his head and looked over. Elder Yuan smiled and looked back at him, and Elder Mei and the others also turned their gazes over.

Chen Yuan knew, of course, that his and Han Xuan's telepathic communication couldn't be hidden from the six Nascent Soul cultivators, so he simply clasped his hands in a bow and said, "Thank you, Elder Yuan, for clearing up my doubts. Could it be that the six seniors broke through the Xuanli Realm this time also to request the assistance of the Fatian Pavilion?"

Elder Yuan chuckled: "The Heaven-Slaying Pavilion has never forced any sect to borrow the light of the Taixu Juntian Axe to break through the interface barrier. It's just that opening up a spatial passage on your own is too difficult, would consume more treasures, and take longer. It's far more cost-effective than borrowing the light of the Taixu Juntian Axe."

"But our sect is different. Our sect leader has a rare treasure that can break through the barrier between realms and open up a spatial passage."

"Although it is not as powerful as the Taixu Juntian Axe, it is still enough for our sect to conquer the Lesser Thousand Worlds and save a lot of offerings. Therefore, our sect rarely uses the axe light of the Taixu Juntian Axe to open up spatial passages."

Chen Yuan's heart stirred, and he asked, "Is the extraordinary treasure you mentioned, Senior, the Myriad Stars Disc?"

Elder Yuan was slightly taken aback, then smiled and said, "That's right, it seems Han Xuan has already told you."

Han Xuan, standing to the side, looked surprised: "This disciple has never mentioned this matter to Junior Brother Chen. I wonder how you learned about it?"

Meeting Han Xuan's questioning gaze, Chen Yuan explained, "When I was in the human realm, I heard that True Person Fu possessed a magical artifact called the Myriad Stars Disc, which was skilled at opening spatial passages and led various sects of the human realm to conquer the thirteen realms, earning him widespread fame."

"But as far as I know, the Myriad Stars Compass was bestowed upon True Man Fu by a powerful being from the Spirit Realm. I never expected it to possess such power, comparable to the Mysterious Heavenly Treasure."

Upon hearing this, the gazes of the several Nascent Soul cultivators towards him changed drastically, and even Elder Su's eyes showed a hint of seriousness.

None of them knew about Fu Zhenren's past before his ascension, but Chen Yuan knew even the details of Fu Zhenren's conquest of the thirteen realms. His identity as the successor of the Tai Xuan Sect in the human realm seemed increasingly credible to them.

Elder Yuan said gently, "I do not know the origin of the Myriad Stars Compass, but although this treasure is not a Xuan Tian spiritual treasure, it is not far off."

"For tens of thousands of years, our sect has not only not needed to ask the Heavenly Pavilion for help, but has also been able to use the Myriad Stars Disc to help other sects open up spatial passages, benefiting greatly, all thanks to the power of our sect leader."

"We were able to break through the barrier of the Xuanli Realm this time thanks to Senior Brother Su who obtained a wisp of starlight from the Sect Leader, which prevented the demon race from gaining the upper hand."

“That array…” Chen Yuan looked at the giant teleportation array that was getting closer and closer.

Elder Yuan said, "This Xuanli Realm is too far from the Spirit Realm. Although it is called a realm, it is actually just a spatial secret realm with a small area and is protected by a protective array. It is far from comparable to a minor world."

"We originally only wanted to seize the True Dragon Cave, and had no intention of developing this world."

"But this world has many spiritual veins, as well as two treasure lands, the Myriad Flames Mountain Range and the Blessed Cave Heaven. It would be a great pity to abandon it."

"Although the Myriad Stars Compass is good, it is ultimately not as good as the Primordial Void Heavenly Axe. Breaking through the interface barrier is not difficult, but building an interdimensional teleportation array across such a long distance is too costly."

"We simply reported to the Heaven-Slaying Pavilion and offered 20% of the fire-elemental spiritual material mines in the Ten Thousand Flames Mountains in exchange for a beam of light from the Taixu Juntian Axe, which was used to build this giant teleportation array."

Wei Wushang added from the side, "The Taixu Juntian Axe is mysterious and unpredictable, and the axe light it splits out each has its own wonderful use."

"If it is used to break through the interface barrier, it requires the power of a mighty axe. The greater the power, the more cultivation resources are offered."

"But it's only used to build an interdimensional teleportation array. It only requires the light of the Thousand-Pound Axe, so the cultivation resources offered are much less, and the requirements are not high. It's more cost-effective than using your sect's Myriad Stars Disc."

"In the past, when we followed your sect to conquer other worlds, we always used the Myriad Stars Disc to break through the interface barrier and open up spatial passages."

"Once the overall situation is settled, we will request the Thousand-Pound Axe Light from the Heaven-Slaying Pavilion to build an interdimensional teleportation array."

Chen Yuan looked enlightened and bowed to him, saying, "Thank you for your explanation, senior."

Wei Wushang chuckled. Chen Yuan cultivated both physical and magical techniques, and his physical body had already broken through to a higher level. He was about to break through to the next realm. Moreover, he had a deep connection with Master Fu, so his status in the Tai Xuan Sect would likely be quite high in the future. Since Wei Wushang wanted to curry favor with him, he naturally told him everything he knew.

If it were an ordinary Void Refinement cultivator, Wei Wushang wouldn't even give him a second glance, let alone go through all this trouble explaining.

As they spoke, they arrived at the valley where the giant teleportation array was located and descended into the light of their escape.

The giant teleportation array was shrouded in a barrier, preventing anyone from flying away. Cultivators could only enter and exit through the dozen or so array gates around it.

Each gate is guarded by cultivators, all of whom are disciples of the Tai Xuan Sect. They ask about the origin and name of the visitors and then give them a pass token. Cultivators leaving the Xuanli Realm also need to register their identities. The procedures are very strict.

These guards were at least at the Foundation Establishment stage, and several Nascent Soul stage cultivators hovered in the air, coldly watching the passing cultivators, exuding an air of majesty.

Upon seeing Chen Yuan and his group, their expressions changed. The closest Nascent Soul disciple stepped forward, first bowing to Elder Mei, then clasping his hands in greeting to the other five Nascent Soul cultivators. He was a disciple of Jade Sword Peak.

He was extremely respectful and led everyone into the array. The five Nascent Soul cultivators each took out two Immortal Spirit Stones and handed them to the Jade Sword Peak disciples.

Elder Yuan took out four pieces and pointed at Chen Yuan and Han Xuan: "These are for me and the two of them."

As everyone was about to enter the teleportation array, a disciple of Jade Sword Peak glanced at Han Xuan and Chen Yuan and cautiously asked, "May I ask who these two seniors are...?"

The Tai Xuan Sect has strict rules and regulations, which strictly control the movement of cultivators in the Conquest Interface. Even cultivators at the Integration Stage must register their identities before entering or leaving.

The six Nascent Soul cultivators were too famous to need further questioning, but the Jade Sword Peak disciples didn't recognize Han Xuan and Chen Yuan and needed to ascertain their identities. Nascent Soul cultivators needed two Immortal Spirit Stones to use the interdimensional teleportation array, while Void Refinement cultivators needed one.

Although these two individuals did not demonstrate any significant cultivation level, Elder Yuan had given each of them a piece of immortal spirit stone, indicating that they were definitely Void Refinement cultivators.

Han Xuan said calmly, "Han Xuan is a true disciple of the Huayu Peak of the Tai Xuan Sect."

The disciples of Jade Sword Peak straightened up and immediately bowed to Han Xuan: "So you are Senior Brother Han from Feather Transformation Peak. I have long admired your name."

Chen Yuan hesitated for a moment, and Elder Yuan spoke first: "This person is Chen Yuan, a true disciple of Huayu Peak."

A hint of doubt flashed in the eyes of the Jade Sword Peak disciple. The name sounded familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had heard it before.

However, he dared not reveal anything on his face. He bowed to the mysterious cultivator whose background he could not discern, addressed him as "Senior Brother Chen," and then stepped aside.

The disciples of Jade Sword Peak watched as the group entered the teleportation array and disappeared. They carefully recalled the name Chen Yuan and suddenly their eyes widened.

He vaguely remembered hearing a senior brother from Jade Sword Peak who participated in the Great War of Xuanli Realm more than two hundred years ago mention that when the battle was critical, a disciple from Huayu Peak killed two demon saints' divided souls in succession and turned the tide. This disciple from Huayu Peak was named Chen Yuan!

This person should have died in that great battle, so how did he come back to life and become a Void Refinement cultivator?
The disciples of Jade Sword Peak stared blankly at the spot where Chen Yuan had disappeared, speechless with shock.

……

After Chen Yuan stepped into the teleportation array, a flash of white light appeared, and a spatial compression force came from around him, but it was much easier than he had expected. Strange and colorful lights appeared before his eyes.

It was unclear how much time had passed—it seemed like only a moment, yet also like many years had gone by—when the spatial compression suddenly dissipated, the strange colors vanished, and the scene before them returned to calm.

Chen Yuan looked closely and saw that there was also an enormous teleportation array around him, several times larger than the giant teleportation array in the Wanyan Mountain Range. Thousands of cultivators were going in and out, and white light flashed every moment.

Countless subtle spatial fluctuations intertwined, yet remained undisturbed, failing to affect the stability of this world. It was as if a pair of skillful hands were meticulously plucking these invisible strings, playing an elegant and harmonious melody.

Chen Yuan was secretly astonished; what an extraordinary spatial technique this was!

He refined the Kunpeng's true blood, and when he used the teleportation technique alone, he could do it with such exquisite skill.

However, it would be much more difficult for him to bring two more people to use the teleportation technique, and it would be impossible for him to do so without affecting the surrounding environment.

The existence of the giant teleportation array in front of us can simultaneously teleport thousands of cultivators of different levels to another world without interfering with each other.

His mastery of spatial supernatural powers is probably no less than that of the Kunpeng True Spirit, having touched upon the origin of the Great Dao of Space.

This giant teleportation array was also built among the mountains, shrouded in a thick array curtain, and surrounded by array gates, each guarded by cultivators, making it very heavily guarded.

Six Nascent Soul cultivators took to the air, followed by Chen Yuan and Han Xuan. They stood out among the cultivators who were walking obediently toward the array gate, immediately attracting hundreds of gazes. Some of the guards frowned and were about to reprimand them.

Elder Su snorted coldly, revealing his aura. The pressure of a mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator flashed by, and the onlookers were terrified. They quickly lowered their heads and dared not look directly at him again.

The monks on duty quickly clasped their hands in greeting, their expressions filled with fear, and no one dared to stop them.

The interdimensional teleportation array strictly prohibits cultivators from flying away, but it is only effective for cultivators below the Integration stage.

A cultivator at the Void Refinement stage personally greeted them, and after ascertaining Han Xuan and Chen Yuan's identities, respectfully saw them off as they left the great formation.

The Tai Xuan Sect and its affiliated sects have a total of only about twenty Nascent Soul cultivators, all of whom are renowned far and wide.

The cultivators guarding the interdimensional teleportation array all remembered it by heart, even the portraits, for fear of being impolite and offending these Nascent Soul stage experts.

After flying out of the giant teleportation array, Chen Yuan stared at the scene before him, his body pausing, his expression somewhat dazed.

Seeing this, Han Xuan also slowed down his escape speed and said with a smile through his voice, "Donghua City is indeed much more magnificent than the cities built by the demon race in the Burning Demon Realm. Junior brother, you can take your time to explore the city and enjoy its scenery when you have free time in the future."

Amidst towering mountains, hundreds of meters high buildings stood like a forest, piercing the sky. Their outer walls were engraved with intricate spiritual runes and restrictions, forming a giant man-made jungle.

Beautifully designed flying boats and cloud chariots, elegant white cranes, and agile and fierce mythical beasts flew across the sky in an orderly fashion.

Every few floors of the building has a terrace with open doors, allowing cultivators to come and go as they please, making it extremely convenient.

On the terrace, a huge banner, inscribed with simple prohibitions, was carried on a wooden pole, fluttering and rustling even without wind.

The banners were painted with the shop's name, which was emblazoned with dragons and phoenixes, and were clearly visible even from a thousand feet away.

On the mountain peaks between the magnificent buildings, densely packed buildings stand side by side.

The crisscrossing mountain paths and stone steps are spread among the mountains, wide and flat.

Qi Refining cultivators leaped and bounded, their heads surging like endless rivers.

Reminded by Han Xuan, Chen Yuan came to his senses and followed, gazing at the magnificent city of cultivators, a complex look flashing in his eyes.

This Donghua City reminded him of the steel jungles he had seen in his previous life, but it was even more magnificent.

This is a colossal city built with the power to transform the world, surpassing all human imagination.

In the center of the giant city, a floating island hangs in the sky, only a few thousand feet above the ground, covering an area of ​​about a hundred miles. It blocks out all the sunlight.

But beneath the giant island, a great sun hung in the sky, no different from the real sun, only much smaller, casting its bright sunlight and dispelling the darkness cast by the giant island.

Chen Yuanyuan gazed at the giant island, and Elder Yuan said, "Nephew Chen, that is Tongtian Island. The sect leader is cultivating in seclusion on the island. We will go and pay our respects."

Tai Xuan Sect, Donghua City, Tongtian Island...

It seems that this Master Fu is a sentimental person, which gave Chen Yuan even more confidence in this trip.

Moreover, he has a backup plan that will surely impress Master Fu and lead him to join his sect.

Chen Yuan silently followed Elder Yuan to the foot of the floating island, landing in front of a grand hall. (End of Chapter)
