Chapter 137 Vast World
Chapter 137 Vast World
Upon hearing Qinchuan's words, Zhou Yuanyi's face involuntarily twitched with anger, and he was so choked up that his face turned beet red before he could finally sputter out, "You brash and arrogant fool!"
"Well, well, well, Zhou Mou has roamed the world for many years and yet, I have never seen anyone as wildly arrogant as you. Today, I truly have seen something new!" Zhou Yuanyi said, trembling with rage.
This fellow, just how arrogant is he?
To actually threaten him outright, demanding that the Saint Heir of the Taixuan Sect not touch even a blade of grass or a leaf in the Myriad Spirit Garden, or else he would chop him up!
Who do you think you are?!
Just a mere Condensed Truth Realm Cultivator!
Where did this madness come from!
However, Qinchuan's next words sent Zhou Yuanyi into an even more thunderous rage.
All he saw was Qinchuan glancing at Zhou Yuanyi disdainfully before sneering, "Roaming the world? With just your petty Myriad Manifestation Realm, you dare to claim you have roamed the world?"
He couldn't help but shake his head, "Nothing but a frog in a well, you probably don't even know how vast the world is, yet you prattle on about traversing the world. It's really just gold-plating your face."
"You, you, you..."
Zhou Yuanyi was now so angry he was shaking all over, his finger pointing at Qinchuan trembling.
The others in the hall had already gasped in disbelief, their mouths agape.
The upper echelons of the Congyun Sect could handle it, for they were already familiar with Qinchuan's temperament.
After all, which of the higher-ups of the Congyun Sect present, from the Sect Master down to the Elders, hadn't been rebuked by this fellow?
"What 'you'? Just the Myriad Manifestation Realm, and you're already ignorant of how high the sky and how deep the earth are?" Qinchuan said, glancing at Zhou Yuanyi.
Zhou Yuanyi's chest heaved with anger. Just the Myriad Manifestation Realm?
I, after all, am of the Myriad Manifestation Realm!
And what realm are you?
Nothing but a little Condensed Truth Realm!
Yet you have the audacity to say I know not how high the sky or how deep the earth is?
Exactly who is it that is so ignorant?!
"Oh?"
"You seem quite unreconciled by your look," Qinchuan said, casting a glance at the almost exploding Zhou Yuanyi, "Alright then, let me ask you, do you even know how vast the Divine Wilderness Continent is?"
"How many Great Domains and continents are there?"
"Do you know of the Barbarian Tribes' battlefield to the south, the crimson ground spanning thirty million li?"
"Do you know where the Sea of Death lies in which Domain, which Continent? Have you ever entered it to glimpse the truth of the Sea of Death?"
"What about the Netherworld River? The three thousand weak waters, where do they originate and meander?" Find adventures at empire
"..."
"You know none of these most basic things, yet you claim to have roamed the world? Isn't that just making a laughingstock of yourself!" Qinchuan mocked.
What exactly was Zhou Yuanyi's purpose for leading the disciples of the Taixuan Sect to the Congyun Sect?
How could Qinchuan not be aware of it?
If he couldn't even see through this, then those millions of years he had lived would have been in vain!
Zhou Yuanyi came here under the pretext of a visit, to promote the connection between the Taixuan Sect and the Congyun Sect.
In reality, it was to take the opportunity to explore the true strength of the Congyun Sect and understand the extent of the Sect's remaining heritage.
This meant that the Taixuan Sect was becoming impatient and thinking about making a move against the Congyun Sect.
Therefore, Qinchuan naturally had no courtesy to speak of towards Zhou Yuanyi.
As Qinchuan laid out question after question, Zhou Yuanyi's face turned red with embarrassment, and he was left speechless.
He realized he didn't actually know any of the things Qinchuan mentioned!
Even the most basic question of how vast the Divine Wilderness Continent was, he had no clue!
```
After all, the Divine Wilderness Continent was simply too vast.
Mortals could spend their entire lives trying, yet they would never be able to traverse the Divine Wilderness Continent.
Even Cultivators of the Myriad Manifestation Realm, who could fly through the air, found it difficult to cross the Divine Wilderness Continent.
Let alone traversing the entire Divine Wilderness Continent, even crossing a single Great Domain proved challenging!
Zhou Yuanyi had indeed heard some tidbits of information from various sources.
But that information was always incomplete.
However, at this moment, being pressured by a junior disciple of the Congyun Sect, how could Zhou Yuanyi willingly submit? He snorted coldly and retorted, "What you mentioned, I indeed have limited knowledge about, but since I don't know, you think you know?"
"Even if I'm ignorant, I surely know more than a greenhorn like you who hasn't fully grown into his skin!"
Upon hearing this, Qinchuan couldn't help but quirk up the corner of his mouth, "Sorry, what you know, I probably already know, and what you don't know, I also know."
The onlookers in the hall instantly had a twitch in the corner of their mouths.
Even Wu Tian and the others couldn't help but be rendered speechless.
This guy, he was truly unparalleled in boasting.
A sixteen-year-old youth, comparing knowledge with an old-timer cultivator who had lived for hundreds of years?
Wasn't this like lifting a rock only to drop it on one's own feet?!
"Ahem..."
Wu Tian coughed, meaningfully reminding Qinchuan that enough was enough, and if he continued boasting, he might just burst his own bubble.
The disciples of the Taixuan Sect couldn't stop snickering either, "This kid, his talent for bragging is truly unmatched, such tall tales he tells effortlessly, without even a change in expression, tsk tsk..."
Yet Qinchuan spoke as if he were reciting well-known facts, "Well then, today I shall give you a proper lesson, to let you understand just how high the heavens are, and just how vast the earth is!"
"The Divine Wilderness Continent consists of five Domains and eighty-one Continents!"
"The five Great Domains are the Eastern Wastes, Southern Ridge, Northern Dark, Western Land, and the Central State."
"Each Continent has a minimum size of tens of millions of miles, while the larger ones span up to eight hundred and ninety million miles!"
"Among them, Ancient Kingdoms stand in great numbers, Sect Families are as numerous as the stars in the sky!"
"To the south, there's a battlefield of the Barbarian Tribes, spanning thirty million miles of red earth, situated in the Barbarian Divine Continent at the extreme south of the Eastern Wastes, about nine hundred million miles from here."
"As for the Sea of Death..."
Astonishing pieces of information flowed from Qinchuan's mouth.
Everyone in the hall was stunned into silence.
The Divine Wilderness Continent is that big?!
Five Domains and eighty-one Continents?
The smallest stretching tens of millions of miles?
The largest nearly ninety million miles?!
The area they were in, belonging to the Eastern Wastes, was nine hundred million miles distant from the Barbarian Divine Continent at the southern extremity?!
Just how vast were the Eastern Wastes?!
Everyone was deeply shaken.
Was this true, or was this fellow spouting mere fabrications?
The junior disciples present were all sceptical.
But Zhou Yuanyi and the elders of the Congyun Sect had a sparkle in their eyes.
Although they lacked detailed knowledge, owing to their advanced age, they had inevitably gleaned bits and pieces from some Ancient Books or other hearsay, even if it was scattered and sporadic.
The limited knowledge they had coincided with some of the information Qinchuan had shared.
This faintly made them feel that what Qinchuan was saying might indeed be true!
"Let me ask you then, I've heard there's a Stellar Sea in the Eastern Wastes, do you happen to know where it is?" Zhou Yuanyi asked, scraping together whatever knowledge he possessed.
"Situated in Dongling Continent of the Eastern Wastes, the Stellar Sea appears every thousand years, carrying within it fortunes and opportunities. As long as one's comprehension isn't too poor, there's a great chance to understand the Stellar Great Dao and wield Stellar Force..."
Qinchuan spoke without hesitation, his words flowing smoothly.
He had long since traveled through the Myriad Heavens and Worlds, and even if landscapes had changed over the years, some fundamental aspects remained the same.
After all, the world of cultivation was upheld by the complex interweaving of powerful rules and orders of the land, maintaining the Heavenly Dao.
