It's not on the inner disciple exchange list right now, and it's unlikely to be available in the Heavenly Realm either.
"Don't underestimate the Xuan Shu Heaven. There are many, many cultivators in the Xuan Shu Heaven. Many of our sect's deacons and elders also go to the Xuan Shu Heaven to make purchases on a regular basis. As long as you are willing to offer a suitable price, the elders may even lend a hand to you."
"Oh? Is that so? How come I've never heard of it before?"
As she said this, Lu Li felt like a country bumpkin, knowing very little about the tricks that upper-level cultivators played.
"Back then, you were in the outer sect. How could those outer sect disciples have the right to access these things? I'd like to ask you first, which steward are you now studying under?"
"Not a butler."
"Oh! That's an elder! Which elder is it? Could you tell me?"
Lu Li remembered what Ying Wange had said, so he lowered his head, looking somewhat forlorn.
She died of old age.
"Isn't that a coincidence? Oh no, I mean, please accept my condolences."
"Tell me, how can I enter the Heaven of Disparity?"
Upon hearing this, the senior female student corrected her:
“Your statement is incorrect. When we enter the Heaven of Disparity, it’s not called ‘entering,’ it’s called ‘ascending.’”
"So how do I get to heaven?"
"That's right, it's about ascending to heaven. You need to buy a [Heavenly Mystic Mirror] first, then get a [Heavenly Jade Certificate] from me, and then go to the Heavenly Pavilion designated by the sect to ascend to heaven."
"Tsk..."
Lu Li was speechless. After all that talk, it turned out this was what they were waiting for her to do.
"Sigh, it's not expensive. A set of the First-Level Heavenly Mystic Mirror costs eighty spirit stones, and the monthly rental fee for the Heavenly Jade Tablet is at least five spirit stones. You're not only buying spiritual materials, but you also need to ascend to the heavens to prepare for the shareholding assessment and to consult the sect's external classics. If you want to advance to the Open Source without ascending to the heavens, that's impossible."
Lu Li chuckled inwardly. Could it be that I am the source of the Open Source Realm, and my desire to pass the shareholding assessment is simply to obtain a righteous identity, making it easier for me to act within the sect?
However, consulting the map and purchasing spiritual materials were indeed extremely useful to him, and he didn't lack those few spirit stones. Even so, he was still worried that there might be a trap involved.
"Never mind, I'll go ask someone else."
"Don't go, junior sister! I'll make the decision for you. The first month's rent is 40% off, and subsequent months will be 20% off. Don't go!"
Will the fee be deducted automatically?
"The Heavenly Jade Certificate can be cancelled at any time. You can buy it from me and then cancel it right away. Don't worry, I'll take care of it for you. The Heavenly Mystic Mirror will give you a 10% discount."
"Okay, one set, please."
"Good good!"
Lu Li spent sixty-seven spirit stones to purchase a Heavenly Mystic Mirror and obtained a Heavenly Jade Certificate. As soon as he finished, Lu Li canceled the continuous monthly subscription.
This so-called Mystic Mirror is actually a wooden eye mask that needs to be worn on the face and manipulated with divine sense. As for the Heavenly Jade Tablet, it is entirely emerald green and engraved with magic arrays. The Heavenly Mystic Mirror can only be activated when it is inserted into the small opening next to it.
"Where is Shangtian Pavilion?"
"Look, it's right outside!"
Lu Li turned his head and looked in the direction his senior sister pointed. He saw that there was a tall tower about two miles away from the mission hall. The tower had seven floors from bottom to top. Disciples lined up in a long queue at the bottom of the tower, stretching from the Shangtian Pavilion all the way to the entrance of the mission hall and then turning a corner.
"We have to wait in line! Why didn't you say so earlier!"
"The Five Spirit Stones package works like this: as long as you upgrade to the Twenty Spirit Stones package, you can enjoy a special passage."
"Alright, twenty spirit stones and no need to queue?"
"You can go to the second floor and wait in a shorter line."
Lu Li turned his head and saw that there was also a long queue on the second floor, but it was much shorter than the queue on the first floor.
"Or you can upgrade to the 100 spirit stone package and go directly to the third floor without queuing."
"Come on."
Lu Li's lips twitched. He was indeed well-off, but his spirit stones didn't come from thin air. It was obvious that they were setting a trap to fleece him, so he turned around and left.
Lu Li went to a secluded place and asked Mo Wan to queue up, while he sat down in the Scripture Pavilion, which was not far from the Heavenly Pavilion, and began to browse and search through the classics there.
Half a day later, it was finally his turn to meet Mo Wan. Lu Li walked over and pretended to be an acquaintance with her, so he didn't waste any time.
Lu Li was quite certain that he wasn't the only one standing like that, because there were clearly a few guys in the group who didn't look human at all, and they weren't even pretending. At least Mo Wan was a beautiful humanoid puppet.
Upon entering the Heavenly Pavilion, Lu Li was led to a private room where the jade tablet was inserted, the Xuanjian was put on, and his divine sense was infused into it.
swoosh~
Suddenly, his pitch-black vision brightened. When Lu Li opened his eyes, he found himself in a pure white space. At the top of his field of vision was a countdown timer, which showed the remaining time he had to ascend to the heavens.
The disciples on the first floor of the Heavenly Pavilion all have a time limit of one cup of tea. Once the time is up, they will be asked to leave. This is to prevent anyone from occupying a spot for too long and to ensure that all disciples have the opportunity to ascend to the heavens.
Below the countdown, there are two lines of large text—
The Azure Sun shall perish, the White Moon shall reign supreme.
[Legal access to space, resisting temptation]
"Wow, we can even see our sect's slogan here."
Lu Li sensed it; this space was both real and illusory, more unreal than reality, yet more real than the scene in his sea of consciousness. The body he was currently in was surprisingly powerful, actually at the level of the Spirit Pivot Realm.
"Could it be that my strength in the Heaven of Disparity is related to the strength of my divine sense? It seems that having a strong divine sense is an advantage here."
Lu Li's divine sense strength far exceeded his realm, currently at the mid-grade B level, which corresponds exactly to the mid-stage of the Spirit Pivot Realm. With a thought, a menu appeared before Lu Li's eyes, and a large amount of information flooded into his sea of consciousness.
It turns out that the space he was in was commonly known as the Lesser Suspended Heaven, or in full as the “Suspended Heaven White Moon Palace Division.” It was a small area that the White Moon Palace had divided up within the Suspended Heaven. Above that was the Greater Suspended Heaven, which allowed communication with the midstream forces.
There is one exception: Qingyang Palace and Baiyue Palace are isolated from each other due to the war, and cannot communicate with each other through normal means.
Cultivators within the Heavenly Realm can conceal their identities, but for ease of communication and address, they usually adopt a code name.
Lu Li originally wanted to call himself "Premium Little Pear," but he was worried that people would associate the nickname with him, so after some thought, he changed it to "Premium Hermit."
Getting back to the main point, Lu Li rubbed his hands together and entered "Formless Glaze" into the search interface of the store. However, the screen suddenly went dark the next moment, and Lu Li's body became unable to move.
"It's stuck? Move it! Move it! It was working fine before, don't let it stop now."
Chapter 139 Qingyang Palace has attacked.
Looking at the darkened screen, Lu Li initially thought it was just a simple mechanical malfunction, until...
"Oh no! Qingyang Palace has attacked again!"
"Run! Ugh, my head hurts so much! Where's my exit button? My exit button is gone!"
"Hehehe, you bunch of White Moon Palace traitors, prepare to die! Hahaha!"
Shouts and roars filled the air, and the surrounding space was shattered. Lu Li saw a group of White Moon Palace disciples running wildly everywhere, while a group of Qingyang Palace disciples flying on swords were chasing after them.
After stretching his joints, Lu Li suddenly discovered that his divine avatar could move again. He had never seen such a situation before.
Wait, isn't this Xiaoxuanshutian of our White Moon Palace? Why are there disciples from Qingyang Palace here? Is this some kind of strange pre-battle drill?
Just as Lu Li was puzzled, a fellow disciple passed by him, grabbed his arm in a hurry, and wanted to escape with him.
"Junior sister, what are you standing there for? Run!"
However, before they could take two steps, a colossal creature soared into the air, blocking Lu Li and the disciple's path. It was a monster with a blue face and fangs, covered in black-gold scales, yet it could speak in a hoarse voice:
"Hahaha, trying to run? Too late! With your sect's steward gone, I'm invincible, hahaha!"
What is this thing?
If Lu Li hadn't been certain that he had returned to his sect and seen this ugly monster, he would have thought he had entered the Boundless Realm again.
Since it is an incarnation of divine thought, its body shape should be able to be adjusted appropriately. The fact that this monster is an incarnation of a disciple of the Qingyang Palace does not mean that its true form is like this.
"Oh no! Where's Deacon Qi? Quickly, go and fetch Deacon Qi! Ugh! Help!"
"Deacon Qi? I have no idea who you're talking about. The first floor of your Heavenly Pavilion has been sealed off by my sect elders using soul-path techniques. The deacon in charge of guarding it was just killed by me. You can't get out. You're all going to die! Wahahaha!"
The person who spoke was quite powerful, possessing the strength of the Open Source Realm in this Heaven of Great Disparity, indicating that the strength of his divine sense was at least Grade C.
The female disciple who had been pulling Lu Li away suddenly squatted down, covering her head in defense, her voice tinged with a hint of sobbing.
"Ugh, I just wanted to look up some extra-disciplinary documents to pass the initial assessment, how did I end up in this mess?"
"You can only blame your bad luck, you little wench, hehehe, the louder you scream, the more excited I get. I'll hang you up first, and then..."
The female disciple glanced up at the hideous monster, her delicate body trembled, and she almost burst into tears.
"Wow, don't bully me, I'm ugly, I'm really ugly in real life."
"That's alright. No matter what you look like in reality, in this Heaven of Great Disparity, I'll carve you up the same way! Isn't that what I'm cultivating the Soul Path for?"
Having said that, the monster kicked off the void with both feet, its body transforming into an arrow that lunged at the girl. Lu Li reached out and grasped, and a demonic whip with a hundred blades condensed in his palm.
A wisp of his aura emanated from him, and the moment the oppressive force spread, the monster trembled in mid-air, trying to withdraw its power, but it was too late.
The whip shattered, transforming into countless flying blades that slashed directly at the monster's face.
Pfft!
When the girl came to her senses and shakily raised her head, she found that the monster had been split in two by Lu Li and turned into countless points of light that quickly fled.
Lu Li could clearly sense that this guy was not dead, but his divine avatar had been severed and he was definitely seriously injured. Seeing this, the girl next to him immediately had stars of admiration in her eyes.
"It's my sect's deacon! We're saved."
"Uh, no, I'm not."
"You're not a butler?"
"I'm just a little bit stronger than ordinary people in terms of spiritual power."
"Oh, so that's Senior Sister. You must have acquired a second-stage Xuan Shu. That's really impressive."
"How is this going?"
“Since the outbreak of the great war between the two sects, they have been attacking our Little Suspended Heaven every few days, which is extremely hateful. The battlefield between the two sects is not limited to the real world, nor is it limited to the Boundless Realm, but also includes this Little Suspended Heaven.”
What would happen if we attacked?
"The Upper Heaven Pavilion itself is a fifth-rank Soul Dao artifact. After being attacked, our Lesser Heavenly Disparity could not connect with the Greater Heavenly Disparity in the middle reaches, and messages could not be sent out."
"Yes, that situation is indeed very bad."
Lu Li nodded slightly. Without the Lesser Disparity Heaven, it was as if he had lost contact with the sect, and various information could not be transmitted in a timely manner. To put it simply, he could not issue bounties to the middle class.
"So in order to deal with this situation, both sects organized a group of Soul Path cultivators, led by their elders. They have been fighting for more than a month, with both sides having their share of victories and defeats. However, this is the first time in the past week that they have been invaded."
"That was really awful."
"By the way, my name is Qin Zijin. What's your name, Senior Sister?"
"My name is Jingpin Jushi (精品居士)."
"No, I mean in real life, in real life."
Lu Li glanced at it, and suddenly a friend request popped up in the corner of his vision. The other party's code name was "Qi Gu Ling Wo Tou Tu" (meaning "The Rise of Stocks Makes Me Bald"). Qin Zijin was probably her real name.
Lu Li accepted the other party's application to become a fellow Daoist and waved his hand, indicating that he didn't need to care about the real-world name.
Lu Li opened the input box again, attempting to enter the Great Disparity Heaven. Sure enough, a line of small seal script characters popped up above his field of vision—
[Faulty, currently undergoing repairs, unable to connect to the Great Disparity Heaven]
Seeing this, Lu Li frowned.
"Isn't there any other way?"
"No, the signal in the first three layers is too bad. It's rare to be able to connect normally. Now that the two sects are at war, it's almost impossible to connect to the Great Disparity Heaven. Ugh! This assessment actually requires us to find twenty external classics for reference."
Lu Li could detect a deep resentment in Qin Zijin's words.
"So that means we have to go to the fourth floor?"
Before Lu Li entered, he noticed that the Shangtian Pavilion was divided into seven floors. The first three floors were crowded with people, but from the fourth floor onwards, there were no people queuing.
"The fourth and fifth floors are reserved for sect elders, the sixth floor is reserved for the sect leader, and the seventh floor is the sect's emergency communication channel, which is only used in special circumstances. Of course, if an elder guides you, you should be able to reach the fourth floor as well."
"Hehehe..."
Lu Li rolled his eyes. He seemed to suddenly realize that the senior sister from the Mission Hall insisted on asking him about his master's lineage. Upon hearing that his master had fallen, she couldn't wait to sell him the Heavenly Service.
When he was in the outer sect, people mistakenly thought he was from a prestigious family and were wary of his status. But once he entered the inner sect, everyone there seemed to have some kind of powerful background, so no one cared about him.
