Chapter 254 New Discoveries
It’s incredible!
A newly crowned Martial Saint single-handedly fought five veteran Martial Saints, yet with overwhelming superiority, he effortlessly annihilated them with a mere laugh. What an awe-inspiring feat!
The people of Longhua Sect expressed their incomprehension and surrounded the sect leader, asking him all sorts of questions, hoping to get an acceptable answer.
But does a remarkable life need explanation?
Xiao Chong changed the subject without offering any explanation.
In fact, he couldn't explain it either; his very existence in this world was a miraculous event.
Isn't it normal for amazing things to happen to an amazing person?
Should I tell everyone that I have a cheat code hidden inside me?
Should I tell everyone that the cultivation technique I practice doesn't belong to this world?
No! Absolutely not! That would only put myself in danger!
Moreover, given their intelligence, Xiao Chong felt that they couldn't understand it either.
But the crowd was bursting with curiosity and wouldn't let him off the hook. Instead, they pressed him for answers, determined not to give up until they got the answers they wanted.
Long Wu, who was usually the most gossipy, remained silent after witnessing Xiao Chong's amazing abilities. He followed behind Xiao Chong like a cute little boy, without saying a word.
Seeing that they had returned to the city lord's mansion, and that everyone was still talking and unwilling to leave, Long Wu stopped them and helped his boss out of the predicament, saying, "Everyone, disperse! The Dao Lord has only recently broken through to the Martial Saint realm, and there are still many things he has not yet comprehended. He needs to continue his seclusion."
Didn't you just break through your cultivation barrier? Why are you going into seclusion again so soon? Are you sure this is a scientific cultivation method?
Everyone was stunned and speechless, all looking at Xiao Chong.
Wow, this blockhead is actually quite sensible today!
Xiao Chong cast an approving glance at Long Wu, then said to the crowd with a solemn expression, "Long Wu is right, that's exactly what I was thinking."
Perhaps he himself felt that this explanation was not convincing to everyone, so after thinking for a moment, he added, "Actually, it's not really a seclusion. I just wanted to calm down and carefully experience the changes in my body after breaking through to the next level."
Oh, now we understand. The talk of seclusion is clearly a lie!
After hearing Xiao Chong's explanation, everyone agreed that the Daoist Master's words made a lot of sense. They dared not delay Xiao Chong's cultivation and dispersed with a sense of disappointment.
In fact, Xiao Chong's words were not entirely perfunctory. Rather, he had just broken through to the Martial Saint realm and had hastily engaged in combat with others. He was not very clear about many of the changes that came with breaking through and indeed needed to sort things out properly.
In front of a quiet room in the city lord's mansion, Long Wu stood ramrod straight, like a gatekeeper, keeping out all the idlers who wanted to find answers under the guise of visiting.
Inside the quiet room, Xiao Chong sat calmly, carefully sensing the various differences in his body compared to before after breaking through to the next realm.
The five martial saints perished in the blink of an eye, without sending any message before their deaths, so the Martial Elders' Association would not send reinforcements to Songcui City in the short term.
By the time the Martial Elders received news of the deaths of the five Martial Saints and wanted to take action against Songcui, they would probably have already led everyone away from this place and opened up a new battlefield.
Based on this assessment, Xiao Chong was in no hurry and patiently began to explore the various benefits that breaking through to a higher realm would bring him.
In the martial arts cultivation system of Tianyun Continent, the realm after Martial Saint is also known as the Transcendent Realm.
Martial artists who enter the Transcendent Realm are able to control some of the most basic rules of the world, the most obvious being their manipulation of the primordial energy of heaven and earth.
Martial Saints can mobilize massive amounts of spiritual energy from heaven and earth with a single breath to replenish their own energy reserves. Therefore, every time they raise a hand or take a step, the wind and clouds change color, the earth shakes, and mountains tremble, demonstrating many supernatural abilities that are unbelievable to ordinary people.
However, it is extremely rare for someone like Xiao Chong to condense the spiritual energy of heaven and earth within a hundred feet into a visible substance, either inhaling it into his mouth or wrapping it around his fist.
This can only be attributed to the fact that the cultivation method he practices is too miraculous. Furthermore, it can only mean that he is an anomaly, or to be more precise, a... freak!
That's right, he's a pervert!
But being a pervert is great! Which guy with an extraordinary life isn't a pervert?
Xiao Chong was not offended at all by the unintentional "you're a pervert" looks that people were giving him; on the contrary, he was quite pleased with himself.
After becoming an eighth-grade Mind Master, the changes in his spiritual sense and mental power made him feel even more proud.
After spending most of the day exploring and adjusting, Xiao Chong was surprised to find that his spiritual sense had greatly improved and could now extend to nearly a hundred miles.
This is practically a radar! Any movement within a hundred miles can no longer escape its notice!
Recalling the telescope he had concocted to deal with Tie Changqing when he first regained his memories, Xiao Chong shook his head inwardly, feeling deeply helpless about the various struggles he had gone through to survive back then.
Of course, radar and such are merely byproducts of the enhanced divine sense, hardly worth mentioning. The biggest surprise was that Xiao Chong discovered the space within the Purple Cloud Cauldron had expanded wildly once again, now reaching a radius of ten thousand miles.
Such a large space would be a waste if it were only used to store things. Fortunately, the Purple Cloud Cauldron can not only hold inanimate objects, but also sustain living people.
It's quite amazing, really. This Purple Cloud Cauldron is indeed a Taoist treasure left behind by the great immortal Lu Zu Chunyang. It has its own wonders and hidden world inside.
In fact, when Xiao Cong broke through to the Martial Saint realm, he did not absorb all the surging spiritual energy of heaven and earth; rather, a large portion of it was taken away by the Purple Cloud Cauldron.
Nourished by a vast amount of primordial energy, this cave has evolved into numerous mountains and rivers of varying sizes, as well as a variety of exotic flowers and rare herbs, and lush forests.
However, due to the short time frame or Xiao Chong's limited abilities, the sun, moon, and stars had not yet materialized, so there was no distinction between day and night.
At the same time, this is a newly opened little world, without any living creatures such as birds or beasts.
This made Xiao Chong feel somewhat regretful.
Despite the regrets, overall it's still quite satisfactory. There's no life left, but that can be added later; there's no rush.
As for the dramatic increase in his mental power, Xiao Chong didn't care much.
In the Tianyun Continent, an eighth-rank Mind Master can already enable cultivators to master a certain amount of spatial power and form the rudimentary form of the "domain" unique to Mind Masters.
But what's the use of that?
Even if you cultivate to become a legendary ninth-grade Divine Sense Master and possess a complete realm, can it compare to the wonder of the Purple Cloud Cauldron forming its own universe?
Are Divine Sense Masters invincible within their own domains?
It's just scary to talk about! Can it withstand even a light blow from the Purple Cloud Cauldron? Or will it be "swallowed" by the Purple Cloud Cauldron?
Xiao Chong felt that the name "Domain" was just for show, and that it was completely incomparable to the Purple Cloud Cauldron in terms of size, function, power and other aspects!
The most important thing now is to add some vitality to the Purple Cloud Cauldron, which will make it look more perfect.
For a bright young person with ideals and aspirations, any flaw will be unbearable!
As darkness fell, Xiao Chong secretly ran out of the city and chased after all the birds and beasts that roamed the mountains!
That night, outside Songcui City, wolves and pigs ran rampant everywhere, and birds cried incessantly in the mountains and fields, their feathers flying wildly.
When it was fully light, some hunters in the city who made their living by hunting were surprised to find that not only could they not find a single large wild animal within a radius of a hundred miles, but they could not even hear a single bird call in the mountains and forests.
