“Rumble rumble!”
“Rumble rumble!”
The ground of the Eternal Realm was expanding, the space was extending, until it froze at a scale ten times larger than before.
From this, one could see that the merger of two top-tier origins was definitely not one plus one equals two.
Jun Changxiao was very gratified.
Taking such a huge risk had brought success, and indeed brought miraculous rewards.
“Whoosh whoosh!”
Cool wind, comfortable air, floated throughout the entire plane.
The merger of two origins not only expanded the area but also increased the intensity of the heaven and earth attributes.
Although the effects were difficult to see for now, after accumulating over time, the grade of the nurtured spirit stone veins would also increase by more than ten times.
Jun Changxiao’s action undoubtedly gave the Eternal Realm even greater growth potential.
“Hum!”
“Hum!”
In the underground palace, the new origin’s radiance was blazing, with various energies spreading out, extending through the soil to other areas.
During the merger process, the Eternal Sect’s Origin held the upper hand, so Xingling Realm’s Origin existed more in an auxiliary state.
“I’m very much looking forward.”
Jun Changxiao smiled and said: “To what kind of changes you will bring to this plane in the future.”
“Hum hum!”
The new origin’s radiance intensified, as if responding to its master.
…
Eternal Sect.
After Jun Changxiao returned, he sat in the great hall and began seriously considering the next matter.
Too many living beings had been taken into the Eternal Realm this time. Since they couldn’t be killed, they could only be rearranged.
“Pass down the order.”
Jun Changxiao said: “Original Xingling Realm residents all have the right to survive in the Eternal Realm. They may freely choose cities to settle in. No special privileges, no noble status.”
“Sect Master.”
Yuan Gongzi said: “What about those former nobles?”
“All will serve and be reformed. Those with good performance can obtain permanent residency.”
Apart from top nobles like the commander, actually quite a few second-rank and first-rank residents had been brought in. They may have once had noble status, but now that they had come to the Eternal Realm, they naturally had to start from zero.
Xingling Realm had shattered.
The living beings living there were brought in without being massacred or turned into slaves, which was enough to show Jun Changxiao’s benevolence and correct values.
After most martial artists were arranged, there were still the research personnel to arrange.
After thinking, Jun Changxiao decided to send them all to the expanded lands, then build cities where they could each fulfill their roles.
In a short time.
Many cities rose from the ground, with equipment factories and shipyards appearing one after another.
The technological civilization that originally belonged to Xingling Realm was slowly taking root and sprouting in the Eternal Realm.
It wasn’t hard to imagine that many years from now, this expanded plane would not only have magnificent heaven and earth attributes and a superior martial cultivation environment, but technology would also be integrated into ordinary people’s lives.
“Surge forth.”
Jun Changxiao stood atop a mountain, looking at the vibrant plane, and said proudly: “New world!”
“Jun Sect Master.”
Jian Guixu came over and asked: “What’s the next step?”
“Persuade more planes and forces to join the Jun Alliance and resist together the demon plaguing the universe,” Jun Changxiao said.
This time in Xingling Realm, eliminating the Heavenly Demon Emperor’s army, he didn’t think he now had the strength to contend with the other party. The safest method was to merge more forces.
“Correct.”
Jian Guixu agreed: “This is the most secure approach.”
“Senior Sword Saint,” Jun Changxiao said. “I plan to make a trip to Hengyuan Realm.”
“…”
Jian Guixu’s expression became pained.
A friend with whom he once had a life-and-death relationship had become the Heavenly Demon Emperor’s lackey—every time he thought of it, his heart ached.
…
“Whoosh—”
The Eternal advanced at extreme speed, merging into the endless universe.
Jun Changxiao had two purposes for going to Hengyuan Realm this time: first, to eliminate the Heavenly Demon Emperor’s stronghold; second, to destroy his lackey.
In simple terms.
When dealing with this kind of BOSS, you couldn’t fight head-on—you had to find ways to weaken his power.
“There’s one more purpose.”
The system added: “Complete the main quest!”
Right.
This was the biggest purpose.
Solving Xingling Realm gave 15%. Hengyuan Realm was also in the first tier—if he took it down, it should increase the completion rate quite a bit.
…
On the road.
Jian Guixu leaned by the window, looking at the dark universe outside, his thoughts returning to the past.
He had once gone to Hengyuan Realm and met the passionate youth Fang Shanya. That was a child full of vigor and justice who vowed to eliminate the evil dragon plaguing the plane and restore a clear and just world.
Unfortunately.
The former youth had changed.
The justice in his heart was replaced by evil, and he willingly became the evil dragon’s lackey.
“Senior.”
Jun Changxiao came over, setting down a jar of Intoxicated Life and Dream Death, and said: “We cannot control everything, we can only do our best.”
“Hahaha!”
Jian Guixu threw his head back laughing and said: “Young fellow, this old man has walked a much longer road than you. Naturally I won’t be sentimental or suffer from gains and losses.”
“Come!”
“Let’s drink heartily!”
…
Hengyuan Realm.
A first-tier plane in the upper universe.
From the perspective of overall strength, it couldn’t compare to Xingling Realm, but still had formidable power not to be underestimated.
When Jun Changxiao relied on the Spirit of Concealment to silently merge in, feeling the powerful heaven and earth attributes, he couldn’t help but sigh: “If they assisted me, why worry about the Demon Emperor not being eliminated?”
He didn’t choose to deploy the Eternal Sect’s great army to directly level the entire Hengyuan Realm, but first went to various cities to understand the situation.
Unexpectedly.
It was very peaceful here.
People lived and worked in peace and contentment, harmoniously.
“Are you sure it’s controlled by the Heavenly Demon Emperor?” Jun Changxiao’s heart began to waver, even suspecting whether the commander had been deceiving him.
Over the next few days, he visited several more cities one after another.
He hadn’t seen war, hadn’t seen slaughter.
The residents in the cities helped each other mutually, everyone had virtue, as if placed in an ideal harmonious world.
Before coming, Jun Changxiao had imagined that Hengyuan Realm must be in a chaotic slaughter environment, with people living in dire straits, urgently waiting for him to come rescue them. But reality had slapped him hard in the face.
“Something’s wrong!”
“The way I came in is wrong!”
A plane secretly ruled by the Heavenly Demon Emperor should be extremely cruel to be correct.
“I’m increasingly suspicious that the host and the Heavenly Demon Emperor really are the same person,” the system said.
Xingling Realm—mainly enslavement.
Hengyuan Realm—equality and mutual assistance.
Two planes, two completely different situations.
Just like how Jun Changxiao was sometimes very villainous, sometimes very kind—an extreme personality.
“Bullshit.”
“I am me, a different kind of firework.”
“How could I be the great demon plaguing the upper universe!”
“That’s hard to say.”
The system speculated: “Perhaps the future host never finds the opportunity to step into the Land of Eternal Life, so deliberately uses the method of reincarnation and weapon dissolution like Ye Xingchen to create a version of himself plaguing the world and a version saving the world. Whichever avatar succeeds, ultimately they can glimpse the Great Dao.”
“…”
Jun Changxiao said speechlessly: “This wild imagination, I’m impressed!”
“You flatter me!”
If the system had a body, it would definitely appear very proud.
Mental supplementation.
We’re not weak at it either!
