Xu Jingming sat cross-legged, his eyes fixed on the Sin Flower in front of him. With each breath, he drew on the endless sins contained within the flower, using them as nourishment to condense the Cleansing Lotus Fire to a terrifying level.
In just a minute, the Cleansing Lotus Fire reached the Cleansing Lotus Six-leaf realm.
And in an hour and a half, it surged to the Cleansing Lotus Seven-leaf realm.
But it wasn't until a full day had passed that Xu Jingming finally broke through to the Cleansing Lotus Eight-leaf realm.
Fortunately, the high-dimensional fruit has transformed my body, allowing me to mobilize more Heart Realm Force and break through to the threshold of the Nine-leaf realm. Exhausted, Xu Jingming focused all his energy on condensing the Cleansing Lotus Fire. For more than a month, he consumed massive amounts of sin until, finally, he condensed a wisp of Cleansing Lotus Fire at the Nine-leaf realm.
The pure white flames that rose like clouds were beautiful and posed no threat.
The Cleansing Lotus Fire's Nine-leaf realm is my temporary limit. Xu Jingming knew this very well. Basic mastery of the Black Lotus Fire requires sins that far exceed the level of the Cleansing Lotus Fire, and it is something I don't possess.
The Red Lotus Fire legacy was divided into three realms: Cleansing Lotus Fire, Black Lotus Fire, and Red Lotus Fire. With the help of the Eight Directions Map and the high-dimensional fruit, Xu Jingming could only temporarily push the Cleansing Lotus Fire to a perfected state. It was only at the peak of the Firstborn realm in terms of might.
The power of a peak Firstborn? Meaningless when it comes to adventuring. Xu Jingming knew this all too well. I have to tread carefully, keeping my head down at all times.
The might of a peak Firstborn? They could be found all over high-dimensional space!
Just a high-dimensional fruit could transform one's body to the peak of the Firstborn realm.
The consumption of Abyssal True Blood could transform one's body into something close to the Eternal realm.
And with the right weapon, a Firstborn realm powerhouse could unleash the might of the Eternal realm.
The Eternal realm is the majority in any dominion, and those in the Firstborn realm have to be cautious. Even the natural high-dimensional lifeforms on Myriad Star Island dare not venture out.
Senior Brother Redmond, despite having a legacy, weapons, and resources provided by the dean and others, does not dare to venture out. The dangers of high-dimensional space are too great.
In high-dimensional space, Firstborn realm powerhouses can die at any time while adventuring! Those who do venture out usually do so with powerful companions. But for me, I have to venture out alone.
It was a necessary risk in order to carry out his multi-cosmic dominion experiment, spreading his clones far and wide.
Clones could be produced everywhere, but the dean and others could not accompany him because they lacked the capability.
I'll just be careful.
Xu Jingming retrieved a piece of beast hide before setting off.
This beast hide is my prized possession second only to the original Eight Directions Map legacy, and it's a toy of that high-dimensional child. As he unfolded it, he activated a clone, which infiltrated the interior of the beast hide.
Within, a high-dimensional space was sealed, containing 20 miniature universes that constantly collided. There were also swimming alien beasts, towering buildings, mysterious mazes, large numbers of puppets, an egg…
A toy that an invincible half-step third-realm powerhouse prepared for his child. Xu Jingming came close to the 20 miniature universes.
Huh?
Xu Jingming observed the 20 miniature universes in front of him. Each one has its own set of laws, but when they collide, they affect each other in myriad ways, eventually forming a perfect cycle? The control over the cosmic laws that the creator of these universes possesses is remarkable.
Xu Jingming couldn't help but observe it, and before he knew it, half an hour passed.
"He put in so much effort," Xu Jingming murmured to himself. "The 20 miniature universes prepared by that invincible half-step third realm are actually toys for a child to have a deeper understanding of the laws of the universe while playing. It makes establishing an inner universe in the future easier."
Xu Jingming knew that the key to breaking through to the Eternal realm at the Firstborn realm was to establish an inner universe.
Once the inner universe was formed, a lifeform would naturally undergo a huge transformation!
Before the inner universe system was created, high-dimensional lifeforms had other ways to raise a Firstborn realm high-dimensional body to the Eternal realm. However, the inner universe system quickly became the mainstream method because it was relatively easy and greatly reduced the difficulty of reaching the Eternal realm.
These miniature universes allow children to understand the laws of the universe.
This maze… Xu Jingming walked in.
The maze was actually filled with all kinds of illusory realms.
The illusory realms come one after another, and the final 300 illusory realms form a most terrifying one. I can experience it to my heart's content or exit at any time. Xu Jingming was amazed. This is actually a tutorial on illusory realms.
The 20 miniature universes are in preparation for the establishment of a universe.
The mysterious maze guides the construction of the illusory realm.
The swimming mutated beasts contain all kinds of ways to create a body.
The towering tower houses 21 psychic weapons.
That egg is a guide for Karma Severance.
There are also those puppets and…
Xu Jingming, now a high-dimensional lifeform, embarked on a careful investigation that broadened his horizons.
The effort this father had put in for his child is astounding, creating toys that require much more than just leaving behind a complete legacy.
As expected of an existence who has grasped six half-step third-realm means. He taught his son a lot with the toys. Xu Jingming sighed. Unfortunately, I need a complete formulation for it to truly make a difference.
Forget it.
These toys can also solidify my foundation. Xu Jingming's eyes burned. With these toys, I can potentially figure out some Eternal-level legacies.
The 21 psychic weapons hanging in the tower were a cultivation guide and a chance for him to gain a greater understanding.
I've always wanted a complete psychic weapon technique, but unfortunately, I can't get one. Xu Jingming sighed inwardly.
He liked spearmanship.
He had used spearmanship to condense his mind and will and was very suitable for his path of psychic weapons. But without a complete legacy, it was too difficult to figure out with just a few words from his predecessors.
Now, with the chance to observe all the toys and gain a deeper understanding of the potential path ahead.
I will buy a psychic weapon legacy if the opportunity arises, Xu Jingming thought. No matter how talented he was, drawing on the experience of his predecessors could smoothen his evolutionary path.
After observing all the toys, Xu Jingming prepared to depart the beast hide space.
Huh?
Something about the high-dimensional space sealed in the beast hide made him pause.
As the owner of the hide, I have no issue entering and exiting it. But what about other living beings trapped inside? It would be a difficult escape, he suspected. He meticulously studied the various methods of sealing the hide.
What's more impressive is the Karma Severance contained within the egg. The hide is situated in a high-dimensional space and hiding within it can greatly sever one's karma. Xu Jingming's eyes glowed as he took in the situation.
The high-dimensional child had eventually died but only because he had come up against a third-realm existence. He naturally had nowhere to hide.
What a father.
He made so many preparations for his child. On the one hand, Xu Jingming was very excited that he had made a killing. At the same time, he felt that he owed the high-dimensional child, Liu Yufeng. I've benefited too much from him, and that entangles my karma with him.
I have to repay this debt in the future, if I ever have the ability to do so, but that's only if I reach the third realm, he mused with a smile. It seemed like a distant dream.
But for now, he reveled in the father's meticulous preparations for his child.
From today onward, a clone will hide in the beast hide space. Xu Jingming was very cautious. This way, I increase my chances of survival while exploring outside.
…
With everything in place, Xu Jingming embarked on his exploration.
With the Spacetime Prison in hand, Xu Jingming set off on his daring exploration. My target: Fengyi 33 dominion, situated near the Fengyi 97 dominion.
Carrying living beings during teleportation is undoubtedly an arduous task.
It was like a mortal running. Running while carrying heavy objects naturally slowed down and consumed more stamina.
More importantly… The ten billion human criminals in the Spacetime Prison weren't living beings of the Heart Realm, so they were a huge obstacle when teleporting.
I can go only half as far as my usual Heart Realm teleportation, and it's more strenuous. Xu Jingming felt a little tired from just one teleportation. He bore with it for ten consecutive steps—ten Heart Realm teleportations.
After a grueling hour of mental recuperation, Xu Jingming harnessed his powers and teleported ten more times in rapid succession.
Sigh, I'm a Firstborn realm high-dimensional lifeform, so the teleportation distance in the Heart Realm is a little short. If it were an Eternal high-dimensional lifeform, the teleportation distance would be much greater. Xu Jingming rested and looked at the endless chaos around him. There's a benefit to the Heart Realm lineage—it's relatively safe to travel long distances.
Unlike the dangers that lurked in high-dimensional space, traversing the Heart Realm was relatively safe.
The chances of encountering another high-dimensional lifeform after a lengthy teleportation were minuscule—it was like two specks in an entire universe randomly landing on the same grain of sand.
Fate had to align in unimaginable ways for such a serendipitous meeting to occur.
This place is already beyond Fengyi 97 dominion. It's a chaotic area with multiple spatial layers. Xu Jingming could observe the outside world. It was very safe in the Heart Realm, but the outside environment was already very nasty and terrifying.
For example, strange, black winds whipped around with devastating force, obliterating entire spatial layers with ease. Witnessing such raw might made Xu Jingming shudder with trepidation.
…
He pushed himself to the limit, teleporting ten times before taking an hour to rest. Finally, after more than a day, he stepped foot in Fengyi 33 dominion.
If it were Spacetime Island Lord, it would take her years to reach this dominion from the Mother Stream.
With every jump, he covered an unfathomable distance, traversing through the Heart Realm with blinding speed. He took just over a day.
Detailed information immediately appeared in Xu Jingming's mind about the Fengyi 33 dominion. According to the information about the nearly 2,000 surrounding dominions that Spacetime Island Lord bought from friends in the Mother Stream, there are three half-step third realm powerhouses here, more than 10,000 high-dimensional Eternal lifeforms, and a total of 12 universes. There are between 50 and 150 high-dimensional Eternal lifeforms in each universe.
Xu Jingming came to a realization.
In fact, there were only 99 high-dimensional Eternal lifeforms in his home universe!
Of these 12 universes, five have half-step third-realm powerhouses, Xu Jingming thought. Therefore, the target of my experiment is the other seven universes.
According to the dean and the others, it was best if there were no half-step third-realm factions in the new home universe chosen by the human race. The pressure brought about by a half-step third realm was too great.
The human race is confident in taking root in areas without a half-step third realm. Xu Jingming took a step and rushed to the nearest universe.
