Realms In The Firmament

“This is why the five sky kingdoms were more powerful than itinerant cultivators. Meng Wuzhen was too keen on success, so he unleashed all his power to improve himself. In fact, for now, he isn’t really that powerful.”

Master Bai blandly smiled and said, “When we were on our adventures in the lower realms, we observed the rise and fall so many times. Our mind power has improved to a high level, and we have collected a lot of fortune energy. When we were back to the Human Realm Upon Heavens, we reached the Saint Origin Stage easily!

“Our improvement doesn’t seem to be less than Meng Wuzhen, but not very much. You two are talented but far less talented than Meng Wuzhen. However, you have reached the third level of the Undead Stage, and you are still improving fast. Nobody has ever improved as fast as you did! It is a miracle!”

The ladies looked at each other and smiled with pride. They should be proud. It was definitely a miracle that two ladies like them actually reached the Undead Stage in such a short time!

However, Master Bai made a sigh and said, “But… Wan’er, Xiu’er, you know what? I am not satisfied!”

“What?” The ladies were surprised.

‘Didn’t he just say our improvement was a miracle? Why does he say he isn’t satisfied? Doesn’t it contradict himself?’

“You don’t understand, do you? Do you remember what I told you before? I told you that our experience in the lower realms meant nothing. Do you remember?” Master Bai said.

Wan and Xiu both nodded. “Of course, but you didn’t tell us why…”

Master Bai bitterly smiled and said, “I wanted to tell you. However, it was difficult to convince you. I didn’t know how to argue. Besides, we were back already, so I didn’t want to disturb your minds. However, you are already in a good state. I think it is time to tell you now!”

The ladies looked serious. They bowed and said, “Please, Master!”

Master Bai smiled and said, “Don’t be so serious. It is a simple fact. Do you know why Ye Xiao could improve so fast? In just a year, he has reached the Immortality Stage.”

The ladies looked at each other in confusion. Wan’er said, “We don’t know. However, he is an expert in dan. He makes the best dan beads in the world. I guess his supreme dan must have helped him a lot!”

Master Bai shook his head and said, “You are wrong. Let me ask you. If he didn’t have a strong accumulation of mind power, could he handle such a sudden improvement? The supreme dan must have helped him, but it wasn’t the key!”

Xiu’er was shocked. She said, “Does Ye Xiao have any treasures that can help him improve his mind power? Did it help him improve in the lower realm?”

Master Bai shook his head again. “I don’t know if he has such a great treasure or not. However, I don’t think his mind power comes from any treasures. He must have strengthened his mind power from his cultivation experience!”

The ladies couldn’t believe it, but they didn’t say anything and just waited for Master Bai to tell them more. Master Bai said, “You have underestimated people in the lower realms… In fact, you are born in a high realm, so you are used to looking at them from a high position. You are powerful enough to defeat everything in the lower realms, so you think less of them… However… They have their own advantages. They have something we need but we don’t have!

“The biggest difference between two realms at different levels was in the density of the spiritual energy. The density of the spiritual energy decided the cultivator’s improvement limitation. However, when a cultivator ascends to a higher level, he always improved fast in the beginning because of the rich spiritual energy in the new world. It wasn’t hard to understand. However, have you ever thought about it? How does a man from the lower cultivator handle a quick improvement so well?

“In fact, it isn’t difficult to understand either. Whoever ascends from the lower realm has strong will power. Their minds are always stronger than the natives. People from the Land of Han-Yang and Qing-Yun Realm are vivid evidence. Take Ye Xiao as an example, he improves fast in a proper situation!

“You are the same. When you were in the Land of Han-Yang, you didn’t try to strengthen your mind power, but you have experienced so much. It automatically strengthened you… When you unleashed the restraint, you are boosted. That is why you can reach the third level of the Undead Stage so easily. You will reach the fourth level very soon. However, after that, you will stop for quite some time because the accumulation has run out!”

The two ladies were enlightened. They said, “We truly haven’t gotten enough from the lower realms… If we knew it earlier, perhaps…”

Master Bai laughed and said, “Silly girls. You have already reached a level that most people could only dream of. Don’t be silly. You are better than this!”

Master Bai teased them. The two ladies blushed. Wan’er kept her head low, while Xiu’er was still looking at Master Bai and said, “Master, you knew it. That is why you didn’t free yourself when you are back here. Are you still accumulating it? Are you waiting for the right moment?”

Master Bai smiled and didn’t answer the question. Wan’er suddenly thought of something, so she said, “Master, if you set the power free now, will you reach the Infinity Stage?”

Xiu’er was surprised. “How is that possible? It… It is impossible, isn’t it?”

The Infinity Stage was the stage only top-level cultivators in the Human Realm Upon Heavens could reach. Only a few men in the Human Realm Upon Heavens had reached this stage. What Wan’er said truly surprised Xiu’er!

Master Bai smiled and said, “If I release it now, maybe I can rise to the Infinity Stage. I don’t know. However, I know I can at least reach the top of the Undead Stage!”
