Realizing This Is A Wuxia World After Cultivating For 300 Years

Chapter 121: A Lucky Experiment

“I—I don’t know either”

Wang Donglin was a little flustered, but he hurriedly explained, “But I know how it came about. Exalted Immortal, you’re now the State Overseer of Fengzhou, so you should know the process of the arrival of the Immortal Opportunities.

“Actually, it’s not just the Lower World that has to prepare for the ritual. The Immortals and Buddhas of the upper realm have to be prepared before they descend, and they have to prepare an Immortal weapon bestowed by the Immortal Sect.

As long as there are no problems with the ritual in the Lower World, after the Immortals and Buddhas of the Upper World descend, formless Qi will gather on the Immortal weapon and condense into dewdrops. After seven days, they will form crystals. “When we return to the Upper World, a batch of dewdrops will gather. After returning to the Upper World, they will automatically condense into crystals. These are the Heaven Dew Crystals.

“The number of Heaven Dew Crystals we can collect each time is different. At most, we can collect 70 to 80, and at least 30 to 40.”

“If the 24 aristocratic families and the Nine Preeminent Families want to exchange for Immortal Pills, they need to contribute Heaven Dew Crystals to the Immortal Sects. Nine for a Human Immortal, and 36 for an Earth Immortal.

“However, this is only the amount needed originally. The new quota from 60 years ago requires double the amount of Heaven Dew Crystals.

“18 crystals for a Human Immortal and 72 for an Earth Immortal. In other words, if we’re unlucky, we might not even be able to match the consumption of two Human Immortals in a hundred years…”

“So the so-called 100 year period is for this.” Cui Heng nodded slightly.

He had long felt that something was wrong with this hundred-year Immortal Opportunity.

According to the information he had previously obtained, the Immortals and Buddhas of the Upper World seemed to be specially coming here to give wealth. They contributed selflessly and bestowed treasures and Immortal Opportunities.

It was obviously illogical.

If it was mainly to collect Heaven Dew Crystals, it made sense.

However, he still had a question. “Is the number of Heaven Dew Crystals collected every time really only related to luck?”

“This, I, I’m not a Human Immortal yet, so I’m not too sure. I just heard some rumors and made some guesses…” Wang Donglin seemed to be very afraid. He lowered his head and said with a trembling voice,” The main sects of the Upper World are very concerned about the reputation of the Lower World’s sects. 300 years ago, the Wang Family of Langya was almost wiped out. Their reputation was greatly damaged and they lost all face. 200 years ago and 100 years ago, we didn’t send any Immortals down to collect Heaven Dew Crystals.”

“300 years ago?” Cui Heng’s eyes narrowed slightly. He knew why Wang Donglin was afraid. He sneered and said, “So that’s how it is. At that time, Hongwu killed all the Deity Realm experts in the world and even wiped out those aristocratic families that rode on the heads of the people. This is equivalent to touching the source of the Heaven Dew Crystals in the Upper World!”

Wang Donglin knelt on the ground, not daring to make a sound as he trembled.

At this moment, he understood that it definitely involved Heavenly King Hongwu.

But he did not dare not say it.

The fear brought about by the extreme darkness, deepness, and cold earlier was even worse than dying on the spot.

“300 years ago, Hongwu was plotted against by the people from the Upper Realm?” Cui Heng asked in a low voice. “What was his outcome?”

“I, I don’t know. 300 years was too long ago.” Wang Donglin racked his brains to search for what he knew about Heavenly King Hongwu. Suddenly, he seemed to have thought of something and hurriedly said, “By the way, I, I heard from my elders that we have to be careful of Hongwu making a comeback in the Lower World. Does this mean that Heavenly King Hongwu is actually not dead but just missing?”

“…Perhaps.” Cui Heng could also tell that it was unrealistic to ask about what happened hundreds of years ago with a Deity Realm cultivator like Wang Donglin. He asked, “Then do you know the final outcome of the Immortal Dawn Sect’s Hengxia?”

“It’s said that Perfected Hengxia of the Immortal Dawn Sect disappeared after killing the great Bodhisattva of the Baolin Buddhist Hall.” Wang Donglin knew a little about this, but with his realm and status, he didn’t know the details.

“She didn’t go to the Heavenly Void World?” Cui Heng asked with a frown.

What Wang Donglin said was similar to what he knew previously. There was not much reference value.

“I’ve never heard of it.” Wang Donglin shook his head.

“…” Cui Heng fell silent.

Then, he realized that even if Jiang Qiqi really went to the Heavenly Void World, she might not use Hengxia’s identity.

Wang Donglin was only a Deity Realm expert, so it was almost impossible for him to know about such matters.

Then, Cui Heng asked some other questions.

However, the results disappointed him.

Wang Donglin did not even know the true situation of the Great Zhou Imperial Court and the Linjiang Pei family.

He only knew some superficial information about them, let alone the mysterious Daoyi Palace.

He also only knew the surface information about the history of the Heavenly Void World.

For example, 5,000 years ago, the Nine Immortal Sects enlightened all living beings in the wilderness. 3,000 years ago, they came into contact with the Daoyi Palace and their ascension. 2,000 years ago, the three great monasteries suddenly appeared. He knew about the dynasties that rose and fell in the past thousands of years, the rise and fall of countries, and so on.

He had little understanding of the information and the secrets about the core of their world.

He didn’t even know how to return to the Upper World from the Lower World.

He could only wait for the hundred year period to end before returning with his family’s Human Immortals.

Before long, everything Wang Donglin knew was almost squeezed dry. This was actually normal. Cui Heng also felt that he shouldn’t have too many expectations for such a Deity Realm expert.

He really wanted to ask for more information.

But it was better to wait for the Immortals and Buddhas of the Upper World to descend and capture a few to ask.

“Exalted, Exalted Immortal…” Seeing that Cui Heng had not spoken for a long time, Wang Donglin became extremely flustered. He prostrated on the ground and said with a trembling voice,” Exalted Immortal, can you just kill me directly?”

“I don’t intend to kill you for the time being.” Cui Heng suddenly shook his head and smiled. “What if I kill you directly and destroy the Wang Family of Langya, scaring the Wang Family in the Upper World? What if they don’t come down?”

“Exalted Immortal, do you mean that you want me to be the bait?” Wang Donglin immediately broke out in cold sweat. This was also a path of certain death.

“I guess so.” Cui Heng nodded slightly and pointed behind him.

As his Dharmic powers circulated, he immediately retrieved the land and building fragments that had been destroyed by his flick of his finger. In the blink of an eye, they returned to their original state.

The 3,000-foot-long chasm on the ground disappeared. The ruined meeting halls, houses, walls, and so on were all intact, as if they had not been destroyed at all.

Of course, those who died would not resurrect.

But even so, this scene still shocked Wang Donglin greatly.

As everyone knew, recovery was much more difficult than destruction. Just now, Cui Heng had restored the Wang Family’s mansion to its original state with obvious ease.

“Oh right, there’s also this.” Cui Heng looked at the scimitar fragments on the ground and raised his hand to point. The fragments flashed and returned to their original state. It was still a Human Immortal grade Immortal weapon!

“This, this…” Wang Donglin was dumbfounded. He looked at the scimitar in disbelief and was extremely shocked. “What kind of existence is he? A Heaven Immortal? A Heaven Monarch?!”

He could even instantly repair an Immortal weapon at the Human Immortal grade!

It was too incredible!

Cui Heng collected the Light of Seven Emotions that appeared on Wang Donglin’s body in satisfaction.

The few things he did just now were indeed to collect the Seven Emotions Light and also to intimidate Wang Donglin.

However, he felt that this kind of intimidation was still not enough.

“Now that we’re above 300,000 feet, what else can I do?” Cui Heng thought to himself. “Should I throw them down from here and catch them when they’re about to land, or…”

Thinking of this, he suddenly looked up.

At 300,000 feet, he had already reached the edge of the atmosphere. If he continued to fly upwards, it was very likely that he would reach the void of the universe.

The Great Jin was not a special world, but a planet. Standing tens of thousands of feet in the sky, one could clearly recognize this.

“With my current state and cultivation, as long as I continue to fly upwards, I’ll soon be able to pass through the atmosphere and reach the universe’s void.” Cui Heng looked up and fell into deep thought. “If I bring the Wang Family of Langya out for a round, the intimidation effect should be extremely good. But can my body fly in space?”

He couldn’t be sure about that.

After all, he had never really gone to space before, nor had he heard of any cases of physical bodies flying through space.

Would the vacuum in the universe, all kinds of radiation, and many unknown things harm him?

Cui Heng could not confirm any of this, nor could he verify it.

However, it was very exciting to leave the planet with his own strength and move through the starry sky with his physical strength.

Cui Heng was also looking forward to this and wanted to give it a try.

After reaching the Golden Core realm, he already had an indestructible body and was a Perfect Unblemished God.

At this level, most things in nature could not hurt him.

Even thousands of degrees of heat would not harm him.

In theory, even if Cui Heng were to take a shower on the surface of the sun, he would be unharmed.

If he really flew into space, there was a high chance that he would not be injured.

He could even try to fly to the “moon” of this planet.

However, theoretical speculation was only theoretical speculation. It was not the actual situation.

After thinking for a while, Cui Heng shook his head and thought to himself, “The mysteries of the universe are too vast. The feeling of walking freely through the starry sky is tempting, but it also contains unknown dangers. I’m still too weak now. It’s not suitable for me to take risks so easily.”

It was better to wait until he nurtured a Nascent Soul…

No, if I don’t understand the environment of the universe, I feel that it’s safer to try again at the Soul Formation realm… he thought.

“But since I’m already here, it’s not good to do nothing.” Cui Heng’s heart skipped a beat as he looked at Wang Donglin, who was kneeling on the ground.

At this moment, Wang Donglin, who was still lamenting that he was lucky enough to survive, suddenly felt his heart tighten as an inexplicable fear surged up again.

What was going on?!

Didn’t Exalted Immortal say he wouldn’t kill me?

“Exalted Immortal?” Wang Donglin looked at Cui Heng in fear, but he saw that Cui Heng was also looking at him.

“This is a lucky experiment.” Cui Heng did not beat around the bush and directly released a large amount of Dharmic powers to envelop Wang Donglin. “Help me test the environment outside.”

Not only could this layer of Dharmic powers help Wang Donglin isolate the external environment and protect his vitality, but it could also record information for Cui Heng to study.

“What outside?!” Before Wang Donglin could figure out the situation, he felt himself soaring into the sky at an unbelievable speed. In an instant, he crossed the vast void under a layer of golden light.

Then

Endless darkness was reflected in his eyes, and unprecedented fear instantly filled his mind.

This was the universe!
