Chapter 2251: The Opening of the Small World

Looking at the Xuantian Sovereign who had been slain, a hint of a smile appeared on Xu Nian’s face.

"Thank you, my husband," Luo Bing said gratefully to Xu Nian.

Xu Nian simply smiled nonchalantly: "Silly, why thank me? I know you’ve always had a knot in your heart, so I let you handle it yourself."

Luo Bing nodded, her heart also touched.

The matter of her sect had always been a knot in her heart.

Although she hadn’t mentioned it during this time, she had always buried this hatred within her.

Now, with Xu Nian helping her to kill the Xuantian Sovereign, she could finally breathe a sigh of relief.

"It seems I underestimated this Mr. Xu earlier. Luo Bing, you’ve found a good man," Mo Feiyu also stepped forward and said apologetically.

Xu Nian waved his hand, saying, "Senior Mo, are you here for this Small World as well?"

"Yes, I heard there are many opportunities in this Small World, so I wanted to enter and see if I can elevate my cultivation to the Divine Sovereign Peak," Mo Feiyu responded.

Xu Nian nodded; here lay the Small World of a Sovereign Realm powerhouse of the Ancient Divine Clan, sure to hold great opportunities.

With some luck, perhaps he could really break through to the God Emperor Realm.

At present, neither Xu Nian’s true self nor his avatars can elevate their realm without a long period. It is impossible to reach the God Emperor Realm without significant time.

Thus, for Xu Nian to elevate his level quickly, he must find suitable opportunities.

And the Small World of the Ancient Divine Clan Sovereign presents the best choice at hand.

However, it seems this Small World may be even more dangerous than he imagined.

Just in this area, Xu Nian sensed at least three hundred or more strong Divine Sovereign-level practitioners.

It’s feared that once inside the Small World, there would be no fewer than a thousand Divine Sovereign-level practitioners.

And certainly, God Emperor-level practitioners would not be in short supply.

"If you also wish to enter this Small World, be careful. This isn’t the first time the Small World has opened. Each opening sees numerous Divine Sovereign and God Emperor-level practitioners falling, with usually fewer than five out of a hundred returning alive," Mo Feiyu said.

"Is it that dangerous?" Xu Nian exclaimed.

"Yes, very dangerous. It is said that this is the Red Bright Venerable Lord’s place of demise. All his resources are here, and before he died, he set endless traps inside to prevent anyone from acquiring his treasures. New Gods entering are said to be almost certain of death," Mo Feiyu responded.

"And there are so many wanting to enter still?" Mo Xue asked in surprise.

"Because of the great opportunities rumored to be here. Someone once left with immense gains from this place - a Divine Sovereign First-level practitioner who got lucky and acquired an Order Divine Crystal aligned with their attribute, directly breaking through to the God Emperor Realm," Mo Feiyu said enviously.

"Order Divine Crystal? Is there truly such a thing?" Xu Nian asked in surprise.

"Of course there is. Order Divine Crystals are legacy artifacts, generally held by extremely powerful forces. These treasures are typically the essence of soon-to-die God Emperor-level practitioners, who detach all their insights and Law Order Power from themselves, condensing them into an Order Divine Crystal. These crystals can fuse with a Divine Sovereign-level practitioner, but the amount absorbed depends on the individual’s insight," Mo Feiyu explained.

Xu Nian was utterly astounded.

This essentially passes on all one’s Law Order Power.

The fall of a God Emperor-level practitioner can fully create a new God Emperor-level practitioner.

If he could obtain such an Order Divine Crystal, his avatars could quickly advance.

This is much faster than hunting Divine Sovereign-level practitioners.

Beside him, Luo Bing and Xuanyuan Qingling also wore expressions of excitement.

"Master Uncle, does the Order Divine Crystal have side effects? Like limiting one’s potential for development?" Luo Bing asked.

"No, it has almost no side effects. Absorbing the Divine Crystal is itself a process of personal insight, requiring time to digest. Once these insights become your own, it’s yours, so there’s no real impact, except that it lets you stand on the shoulders of predecessors," Mo Feiyu answered.

Luo Bing nodded.

Xu Nian also understood.

The Order Divine Crystal is indeed a good thing, but claiming it has no side effects isn’t entirely true.

After all, it reflects the understanding of predecessors, rather than results of one’s accumulation through personal insight.

Later, it may form certain obstacles in your cultivation insight, but these obstacles can be overcome, and can be largely disregarded in terms of side effects.

"Thank you, Senior Mo, for the information. It seems this time we must venture into the Small World," Xu Nian said with a smile.

Mo Feiyu gave Xu Nian a look, saying, "I’ve shared all I know, but I know limited details. If you’re entering, I’ll join you, if you don’t mind."

"Certainly not. We would welcome you joining us," Xuanyuan Qingling said cheerfully from the side.

Xu Nian nodded as well.

He handed Mo Feiyu several healing pills and began surveying the surroundings.

At this moment, the number of strong practitioners near the mountain range was steadily increasing.

Xu Nian could clearly sense more and more practitioners approaching this vicinity.

In the next month, Xu Nian and his group did not encounter further disturbances.

Divine Sovereign-level practitioners around had become increasingly plentiful.

By Xu Nian’s estimate, there were no fewer than three thousand Divine Sovereign-level practitioners.

The sheer number of Divine Sovereign-level practitioners truly surprised Xu Nian.

It seems he still underestimated the allure of the Red Bright Venerable Lord’s cave mansion.

Now the outside world was peaceful, but once the Small World opens, a battle will surely ensue.

As for God Emperor-level practitioners, Xu Nian had yet to see them, but there would definitely be many this time around.

As time passed, a powerful fluctuation finally came.

The next moment, everyone looked towards the summit of Red Bright Mountain.

A powerful fluctuation emanated from the stone gate on the summit.

Xu Nian looked towards the stone gate; at this moment, the gate thrummed with mighty Divine Power fluctuations.

These fluctuations were extremely powerful.

"Buzz!"

As Divine Power amassed to a certain point, a massive Space Gate slowly opened.

"The stone gate has opened, wonderful, the Small World is now accessible," someone exclaimed in surprise.

The previously peaceful mountain range instantly erupted into commotion.

Countless silhouettes darted out, racing towards the summit.

Suddenly, the figures of Divine Sovereign-level practitioners were like a swarm of locusts.

"Has it opened?" Xu Nian looked at the space rift appearing on the stone gate, his face showing a hint of awe.

From within the space rift, Xu Nian sensed a powerful and terrifying presence.

This immensely powerful aura was more frightening than any Divine Emperor-level practitioner he’d seen.

"Let’s go in as well." Xu Nian’s eyes shone brightly as he darted out.

Xuanyuan Qingling and the others quickly followed, pursuing Xu Nian towards the stone gate.
