Chapter 806: Chapter 804: Dumbfounded

WHOOSH!

Xu Yang only felt an indescribable, mysterious power surge from the Heaven’s Edge Order, pulling him directly into a chaotic space.

"Huh, what is this? Where is Mr. Liou?"

Xu Yang looked suspiciously at a glowing orb floating in front of him. His surroundings were nothing but dark chaos, and Liou Sanqian was nowhere to be seen. After a moment of hesitation, he grabbed the orb.

WHOOSH!

Another torrent of information flooded his mind.

Dozens of breaths later, Xu Yang suddenly understood.

This place was merely a temporary stop for projecting the Primordial Spirit when entering the Void Realm. Anyone entering the Void Realm for the first time would pause here briefly. The information within the orb served as a brief introduction to the Void Realm.

Entering the Void Realm was a projection of the Primordial Spirit. Inside, one was not bound to any specific form. They could transform into myriad shapes without any restrictions. At the same time, the aura of one’s Primordial Spirit would be completely concealed—so much so that even their own father wouldn’t recognize them face-to-face.

The true space of the Void Realm was projected by a supreme treasure. Although everything inside was illusory, it appeared nearly identical to the outside world. The location from which one entered the Void Realm corresponded to the exact same region within its space. There were cities, mountains, and rivers—even treasure troves and forbidden zones. However, the forbidden zones and treasure troves were merely empty projections, serving only as reference points.

All cultivators could gather, interact, and trade within.

As for trading, the process was incredibly simple. The interior of the Heaven’s Edge Order contained a storage space of its own. Once two parties reached an agreement inside, they could conduct the transaction on the spot using their Heaven’s Edge Orders. It was exceptionally confidential. It was simply the perfect place to dispose of treasures of questionable origin.

Of course, one could also take advantage of Heaven’s Edge Tower’s convenient services. For instance, if someone wanted a certain treasure but temporarily lacked the item the other party requested in return. If their Heaven’s Edge Order was Gold or Purple-tier, they could have the seller hand the treasure over to Heaven’s Edge Tower first, while the buyer would receive what they needed directly from the Tower. The buyer could then provide treasures of equal value to Heaven’s Edge Tower to claim the item.

It was essentially a form of escrow. But with all the channels and avenues provided by Heaven’s Edge Pavilion, it was incredibly convenient. Most importantly, it was entirely secret and secure. There was absolutely no need to worry about being double-crossed or robbed.

After gaining a basic understanding, Xu Yang was thoroughly amazed.

This Void Realm was like a massive communication and trading hub that mirrored reality. If nothing else, just the ability to easily communicate within would be enough to attract countless cultivators.

With a shift of Xu Yang’s thoughts, the chaotic darkness immediately faded away.

WHOOSH!

Feeling his body grow light, he suddenly found himself standing in a vast wilderness. There was no one around. The world was expansive, but there was no starry sky. A faint, ambient light illuminated the area—not as bright as the outside world, yet not exactly dim either.

In the distance, a massive city stood tall.

"Celestial Sword City." Xu Yang fixed his gaze on it. At first glance, it looked incredibly real.

"So this is the End of the World Illusion Realm?

"Hiss... They say the entire Eastern Continent is projected within. What kind of supreme treasure could accomplish such a feat?

"It’s truly incredible."

He carefully sensed his surroundings. There was nothing out of the ordinary or out of place. It felt exactly like the real world.

SWISH!

A streak of light sped over from the distance. Xu Yang’s pupils constricted, his face instantly covered in astonishment.

The arrival wasn’t a person. It was a bizarre-looking goat.

"Mr. Xu, it’s me, Liou Sanqian," the goat let out an old, raspy voice from quite a distance away.

"Mr. Liou?" Xu Yang stared fixedly at Liou Sanqian. He couldn’t detect the slightest sense of familiarity; the aura was completely different.

Not bound to any specific form, able to transform into myriad shapes... In the real world, cultivators had various methods to change their appearances, but none seemed capable of achieving something like this.

"Mr. Xu, most cultivators in the Void Realm will change their forms. You don’t need to worry about being exposed.

"You can try it too."

Xu Yang pondered for a moment, a figure subconsciously surfacing in his mind.

The next moment, he transformed into an elderly man. It was unmistakably Gu Jun.

With a wave of his hand, a screen of light appeared. Looking at his reflection, he couldn’t help but let out another gasp of amazement.

"Huh, what is this purple glow?" He suddenly noticed faint wisps of purple radiance lingering around his body.

"That is the manifestation of the Heaven’s Edge Order. Different tiers of the Heaven’s Edge Order will display a respective glow here, though it can be hidden with a single thought. As for its purpose, it merely serves to show off one’s status," Liou Sanqian explained.

Show off one’s status? Xu Yang was deep in thought.

Naturally, those who could obtain a Gold or Purple-tier order were no ordinary people. They were either monstrous geniuses with immense potential or experts with profound cultivation bases. Here, one really could show off without any scruples.

"Mr. Xu, let’s head into the city for a stroll.

"It’s exactly the same as the outside, though most of the buildings are empty," Liou Sanqian suggested.

Brimming with curiosity, Xu Yang followed Liou Sanqian as they dashed toward Celestial Sword City.

Along the way, Liou Sanqian continued his introduction. Inside this space, the Heaven’s Edge Order could also be used for tracking and teleportation. Of course, the prerequisite was that both parties had to exchange the imprints of their Heaven’s Edge Orders in the real world.

Xu Yang even tested out the trading function. He casually exchanged some Immortal Crystals with Liou Sanqian. With just a single thought, the items were transferred directly into the Heaven’s Edge Order. It left no trace whatsoever, and once outside the Void Realm, the items could be retrieved from the Heaven’s Edge Order.

Upon stepping into the Void Realm’s Celestial Sword City, Xu Yang was completely dumbfounded.

There was so much going on inside. As far as his eyes could see, he barely spotted any "humans." Instead, the streets were filled with bizarre animals and wild beasts. There were wolves, dogs, tigers, dragons... Most outrageously, there were even captivating mermaids and alluring fox spirits.

A group of wild beasts gathered together looked as weird as one could possibly imagine. Worse still, a large black dog was currently resting its paw around the waist of a breathtakingly gorgeous, voluptuous beauty, rubbing its dog paw back and forth against her body without the slightest restraint...

A massive bird flew overhead and dropped a pile of sticky substance onto some monsters below, sparking a barrage of curses. A hundred-foot-tall giant slowly walked by, casting a disdainful glance at Xu Yang.

On the contrary, his normal human form seemed completely out of place here.

"This... this is a bunch of..." Xu Yang’s mouth twitched, momentarily at a loss for words to describe the scene.

Liou Sanqian smiled bitterly. "It’s like a chaotic dance of demons... Actually, some are just here for pure amusement, while for others, it’s a form of cultivation."

"Cultivation?" Xu Yang’s eyes widened. Unwilling to be human, they chose to become beasts and monsters to cultivate?

"Due to the unique nature of the End of the World Illusion Realm, whatever form one takes here is incredibly compatible. It feels as if one has truly become that entity, allowing them to perfectly and authentically experience certain unique mysteries.

"Many Divine Secret Skills originate from the heavens and the earth."

With that explanation, Xu Yang immediately understood.

Comprehension! In the outside world, they could only observe changes. Here, they could directly transform into the entity and experience it firsthand. It was certainly a novel experience.

He couldn’t help but look at Liou Sanqian. Mr. Liou’s goat form...

"However, ones like that are..." Liou Sanqian suddenly paused. His goat horns swayed slightly as his expression twisted.

Xu Yang glanced over, his expression growing even stranger.

In front of a building stood a woman with peerless beauty and a flawless figure. Dressed in translucent gauze that revealed enticing glimpses of her skin, she was striking provocative poses, drawing the gazes of a crowd.

"For just ten thousand second-tier Immortal Crystals, you can enjoy the bliss of Primordial Spirit fusion!

"It feels exactly like the real thing!

"Step right up, don’t miss out!"

"This..." Xu Yang felt his scalp tingle with secondhand embarrassment.

Liou Sanqian said awkwardly, "That form belongs to a fairy on the Dragon and Tiger List. She’s usually quite cold and aloof..."

Hearing this, Xu Yang was completely dumbfounded.
