Perfect World: Start by traveling to the Wuwang Mansion

Chapter 309 The Frontier Is in Turmoil!
Seeing Shi Qingyun's state, Ni Su wanted to try to persuade her again, but after thinking about it, she gave up.

"In that case, I will tell them your thoughts."

"With the Jietian Sect on your side, this matter should be easier."

This made Shi Qingyun a little embarrassed, since this matter was related to the Jietian Sect and touched upon its interests.

Before Shi Qingyun could say anything more, Ni Su transformed into a streak of light and vanished from the spot.

Shi Qingyun watched the graceful figure disappear quickly before her eyes and couldn't help but shake her head. This whirlwind manner was quite similar to that of a witch.

"This time, we owe the Jietian Sect another favor."

He slowly picked up the teacup in front of him, took a sip, and a glint flashed in his eyes as he pondered the matters at hand.

Time passed slowly, and the dust settled on the battle between Shi Qingyun and the various sects, with some details from that time being revealed.

More people learned about the events in the borderlands, and some previously hidden information was revealed to the world in a bloody and brutal way.

In the months that followed, the undercurrents in Jiutian did not subside; on the contrary, they seemed to intensify.

This is because news has spread that various religions and families are discussing organizing people to set off for the frontier.

Those passionate and ambitious rogue cultivators were also aware of the current crisis in the borderlands, with a great battle imminent.

How could they sit idly by and wait for their doom? They wanted to contribute their own strength, but they couldn't find a way, so they all came to Shidu Prefecture, where Yun Palace was located.

As for the news, it was naturally arranged by Shi Qingyun to spread it. For so many years, news of the borderlands had not spread due to the control of the major clans and lineages.

They created an image of peace and tranquility, but as more and more news was revealed, many independent cultivators were in an uproar.

The once backward and impoverished Shidu Prefecture has become somewhat prosperous as cultivators from various prefectures have come to visit.

As expected, as the situation worsened, many religious and aristocratic families announced that they would unite with cultivators from the Nine Heavens to provide support to the borderlands.

Shi Qingyun, who was in the pavilion, slowly opened his eyes as Chen Xuan told him the news.

Chen Xuan glanced at the word 'Dao' reflected in Shi Qingyun's eyes and immediately felt the space-time stone beneath his feet flow backward.

Both body and soul had fallen into the abyss, and he was horrified. He forcibly controlled himself and turned his eyes away.

"It seems I've thought it through."

"It seems that the day when the Cloud Palace sets out on its expedition is not far off. At that time, all affairs of the Cloud Palace will be entrusted to you."

Upon hearing this, Chen Xuan nodded solemnly. Although he knew some news about the borderlands, he had not expected that the borderlands had fallen into such a state.

"By the way, how's the registration process going for those rogue cultivators who want to go to the borderlands?"

With a flick of his sleeve, Chen Xuan unleashed a series of thick books, each bearing a name stamped in gold.

"There are quite a few passionate individuals in the Nine Heavens."

"After this journey, who knows how many will make it back?"

Shi Qingyun put the book into his pocket, waved his sleeve and dismissed Chen Xuan, leaving everything to Chen Xuan and the others.

"There's still some time left, so let's make one last push."

"Let's see if we can break through the shackles of our cultivation level."

With that thought in mind, he returned to his cave and began his seclusion.

Before long, rays of light emanated from his cave, causing all things to flourish and the stars to twinkle incessantly.

Meanwhile, the borderlands were not peaceful at this time.

As one lineage after another entered the borderlands, the decline of the Nine Heavens came to an end, and the two sides were immediately locked in a stalemate.

The conflicts that erupted did not decrease; on the contrary, they became more frequent, and the conflicts that broke out every day affected everyone's nerves.

The two sides are just one opportunity away from a full-scale battle, and both are poised to strike.

Because of the existence of the Heavenly Abyss, cultivators from other realms at the True Immortal level and above cannot enter, so the battles between the younger generation attract a lot of attention.

"The foreign cultivators clamored that they wanted the younger generation of the Nine Heavens to fight against the younger generation of the foreign realm."

Listening to the reports from those below, Meng Tianzheng and the other leaders of the Nine Heavens, sitting on the high platform, were constantly pondering what the people from the foreign lands were planning.

"Yes."

After discussing it for a while, they agreed. This was a battle for the destiny of two ancient realms, rather than repeating meaningless, sky-piercing clashes every day.

Instead, we should just break the spine of a generation of foreigners and weaken their morale!
In a very short time, the news spread like wildfire throughout the entire Imperial Pass.

At a place amidst a sea of ​​blood, Shi Hao pulled out the longsword stuck at his feet. With a slight flash of its cold sword light, spatial rifts were slashed out.

With a single, devastating blow, it suppressed this entire space and time.

Behind him, the alien cultivators were covered in wounds of all sizes, and there were also several corpses of cultivators from the Severing Domain, soaking in a sea of ​​blood.

"The geniuses from other lands are not weak, but they are still a bit lacking."

"I hope to find the path to breaking through to the first level of escape from you!"

Words filled with murderous intent echoed in the vast sea of ​​blood, and a chill instantly froze the battlefield.

On the other side

The witch was dressed in a blue and white dress, her figure graceful and elegant, her slender hands constantly tapping in the air.

Threads of silk, as beautiful as dreams, shot out from her fingertips, connecting with the laws of the heavens.

Not far from her, a group of foreign cultivators stood with their eyes closed and their faces contorted in pain, with dark shadows looming behind them.

It kept whispering in their ears, creating eerie sounds.

With a flick of her toes, terrifying monsters emerged from beneath her feet, moving against the flow of time, and swiftly pounced on the cultivators tormented by nightmares.

chi chi-

Only the sound of sharp blades piercing flesh rang out; the foreign cultivators were killed instantly without uttering a sound.

The gushing blood crushed the void, creating all things, and the whole world fell silent, with only the faint sound of blood flowing reaching out.

"Fight?"

"I'm actually looking forward to it; the greater the pressure, the greater the motivation."

I will catch up with you.

Ten miles of peach blossoms, each one blood-red; the bright moon shines upon three thousand white bones.

The immortal slowly withdrew the vertical flute from his lips, his white robes fluttering in the wind, and at his feet lay the lifeless corpse of a void beast in a pool of blood.

The delicate pink blossoms of the surrounding peach trees were stained crimson with blood, and a thick, pungent stench permeated the entire world. His overwhelming power was concealed, and in a flash, he rushed towards the next battlefield.

"A prodigy from another land? I've killed a few."

Qin Hao, the Immortal, the Emperor, and other celestial prodigies learned that they would be dueling with prodigies from another realm.

They all joined the increasingly fierce battle, hoping to unleash more potential in the fight.

In an instant, the fierce battles on the borderlands escalated to a new level, with all cultivators aspiring to duel in other realms frantically moving between various battlefields.

While everyone in the borderlands was making serious preparations, the people in the foreign lands were also making preparations in full swing.

"These damned Nine Heavens cultivators, all they know how to do is hide in a tortoise shell!"

"Our immortals have issued a decree that we must crush the morale of the Nine Heavens in this battle of geniuses."

"I don't know what's going on. There have been more and more cultivators in the Nine Heavens lately."

"Indeed, the Nine Heavens Dao lineage, which is connected to my realm, has also not sent any messages, which is truly frustrating."

One after another, supreme beings from other realms were hidden within the small worlds they had created, exchanging divine thoughts with each other.

However, he landed on the abyss filled with runes and where the aura of the Great Dao was not visible, his heart filled with anger.

If this insurmountable barrier didn't exist, the immortal beings from other realms could have directly attacked the enemy's capital, and they wouldn't have had to contend with the Nine Heavens for so long.

As for the schemes between the cultivators from the Nine Heavens and those from other realms in the desolate borderlands, Shi Qingyun, who was in seclusion at the time, was naturally unaware of them.

Inside that cave, Shi Qingyun sat cross-legged high in the void, with the Yin-Yang Dao Diagram below transforming into a constantly intertwining and entangled star field.

The yin and yang energies that were washed away transformed into a surging river that flowed into his body.

Behind him, the myriad trees shimmered with light, resonating with his aura, emanating profound and mysterious energy.

Above his head, a character 'Dao', imbued with the principles of Tao and reason, floated and sank, its emanating profound light illuminating time and space for eternity.

Golden light scattered from the character "Dao" and fell upon his body, making him feel as if he had transformed into the lofty Heavenly Dao.

Every move he makes possesses the power to overturn everything; with a thought, his mind travels between mountains, seas, and lakes.

The fierce and bloodthirsty aura emanating from him changed involuntarily, becoming indifferent and ruthless. The 'Dao' above his head slowly evolved into a huge blood-red pupil.

Those blood-red pupils were interwoven with mystical principles, within which a terrifying offensive power was brewing.

Within his body, the universe was also in turmoil.

The yin and yang dragons that had been constantly intertwined in the sky were now much quieter, revolving around a flickering 'Dao' character.

With the appearance of the word 'Dao', the universe within my body seemed to gain order and rules, no longer resembling the previous fairyland.

Instead, things gradually changed.

The seasons change, the sun and moon no longer shine together, but the rising and setting of the sun and moon have an orderly rule, and all things that were originally created by yin and yang.

At this time, things have changed a bit. There are no immortal herbs that last forever; the sun and moon move and time and space flow.

As the character 'Dao' took shape, the universe within the body gradually became perfect, and the world leaped forward to construct the rules of the universe within the body.

With another leap forward in his inner world, his cultivation bottleneck shattered.

A terrifying aura emanated from his body, his momentum constantly rising, accompanied by a crisp sound.

His cultivation level directly reached the mid-stage of the Escape One realm, the space behind him shattered inch by inch, and the character 'Dao' above his head flashed with a colorful light.

Time flies by.

Inside the cave, everything remained the same, except that the enormous blood-red eye above his head and his aura had both become more powerful.

But in the next instant, his tightly closed eyes slowly opened.

His body trembled slightly, and the blood-red eye on his head shattered, transforming into the character 'Dao', which then merged back into his body.

The cracks in his hands slowly began to heal, and the 'Dao' character they had drawn vanished completely.

With a slight lift of his foot, the space beneath his feet instantly distorted, and the faint sound of flowing water could be heard.

His figure instantly appeared outside, and he saw Chen Xuan standing anxiously outside the cave, pacing back and forth.

Sensing that his cultivation level had increased significantly, Shi Qingyun's face showed a hint of satisfaction. After all, he hadn't neglected his cultivation due to his busy schedule.

Upon seeing Shi Qingyun emerge, Chen Xuan's anxious heart instantly found its anchor, and he quickly stepped forward, saying:
"Palace Master, an urgent report has arrived from the academy: something has happened in the borderlands!"

Upon hearing this, Shi Qingyun frowned and immediately took the jade slip from Chen Xuan's hand. With a flick of his finger, a series of messages entered his mind.

A battle between a prodigy from another realm and a monstrous genius from the heavens—a duel that would affect the fate of both sides—was originally going well.

Shi Hao defeated the number one genius from another realm at a great cost, securing his first victory.

However, they suffered a series of defeats in the subsequent battles, with many Supreme Seeds being killed. The alien realm had a very deep understanding of the Nine Heavens Dao Seeds, and they were at a disadvantage from the very beginning of the battle.

Fortunately, the witch, the banished immortal, the emperor, and other prodigies who had fused with the flawless Dao seed defeated their opponents one by one, winning this duel at the cost of a crushing victory.

However, at the last moment, an immortal from another realm attacked those monstrous talents in the Nine Heavens, but fortunately Meng Tianzheng intervened in time.

Otherwise, Shi Hao and all the other geniuses from the Nine Heavens would have perished in the borderlands. However, Meng Tianzheng was also severely injured as a result.

Meanwhile, the alien cultivators' army assembled and launched a direct attack on the Nine Heavens. Under the full-scale war, the Nine Heavens were immediately put at a disadvantage.

At this time, the borderlands were in dire need of attention, many territories had been occupied, and several star systems had been annihilated by the aftershocks of a supreme-level battle.

The jade slip in his hand slowly shattered, and his expression darkened. He said to Chen Xuan:

"How is the gathering of cultivators from those aristocratic families progressing?"

Chen Xuan immediately replied:

"The great clans and lineages of the Nine Heavens gathered millions of celestial cultivators, tens of thousands of whom killed me, while thousands of others escaped."

"This time, those aristocratic families and sects have all suffered heavy losses."

"In addition, there are millions of independent cultivators from all over the country who have come to Shidu Prefecture, as well as several supreme experts."

"Ready to rush to the frontier at any time."

Shi Qingyun was not surprised when he heard the number. Although the Great Dao of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths was flawed and there were not many top-notch cultivators, it was not impossible.

There are always some cultivators who break the mold, and when compared to cultivators from other realms, their numbers are far fewer.

The profound heritage of this ancient realm far exceeds our imagination.
