Chapter 1794: Desolate Stars
“Old Yan, did all the cultivators of Snow Wind Ridge ascend from the lower worlds?”
Su Zimo asked.
“Of course,”
Old Yan said, “There aren’t many native Exalted Immortals of the upper world on the entire Dragon Abyss Star, let alone Snow Wind Ridge. Almost all of them are in Dragon Abyss City.”
“Right,”
As though he recalled something, Old Yan said, “It doesn’t matter what we call each other. However, if you see anyone with a higher cultivation realm than you outside, you’ll still have to address them as Exalted Immortals.”
“Sigh, I’ve seen it with my own eyes. Someone was killed on the spot just because he called the other party ‘Fellow Daoist’.”
At the mention of that, Old Yan shook his head gently and sighed.
Pondering for a moment, Su Zimo frowned and asked, “Why is the Dragon Abyss Star filled with only people who ascended?
“You’ve just ascended and don’t know yet,”
At the mention of that, a look of melancholy flashed through Old Yan’s eyes. “The Dragon Abyss Star is the most remote star beneath Green Cloud County and the Heaven and Earth Essence Qi is thin.”
“In the eyes of the native immortals, they don’t take us who ascended from the lower worlds seriously at all.”
“Anyone who passes the One of Nine Heavenly Tribulation will ascend to these remote stars. I heard that only those who pass the Two of Nine Heavenly Tribulation, Three of Nine Heavenly Tribulation and Four of Nine Heavenly Tribulation are qualified to cultivate elsewhere in Green Cloud County.”
......
“What’s the difference between the Heavenly Tribulations?”
Su Zimo asked again.
“There’s a huge difference,”
Old Yan said, “Under normal circumstances, once one passes the One of Nine Heavenly Tribulation and ascends to the upper world, as long as they stay in the upper world for a period of time and adapt to the environment of the upper world, fusing with the surrounding Heaven and Earth Essence Qi, their cultivation realm will stabilize and they will become a Grade 1 Black Immortal.”
“Following that, those who pass through the Two of Nine Heavenly Tribulation will become Grade 2 Black Immortals once their cultivation realms stabilize. Those who can pass through the Four of Nine Heavenly Tribulation and ascend to the upper world will become Grade 4 Black Immortals, the same level as the mistress and Commander Liang!”
When he heard that, Su Zimo’s heart skipped a beat and he understood.
Under normal circumstances, after he passed the Four of Nine Heavenly Tribulation and ascended to the upper world, he should be a Grade 4 Black Immortal when he interacted with the Heaven and Earth Essence Qi in the surroundings.
However, his ascension process was forcefully interrupted by King Yun You.
Thereafter, he hid in the Bronze Square Tripod and was devoured by the black hole!
However, there was no Heaven and Earth Essence Qi, air, Spirit Qi or anything else in the black hole.
Therefore, his cultivation realm was maintained at Grade 1 Black Immortal.
Now, he had already ascended to the upper world and descended on the Dragon Abyss Star.
According to Old Yan, as long as he stayed on the Dragon Abyss Star for a period of time and interacted with the surrounding Heaven and Earth Essence Qi, his cultivation realm would rise rapidly and he would reach Grade 4 Black Immortal!
It was also because living beings who had passed the One of Nine Heavenly Tribulation would ascend to remote stars like the Dragon Abyss Star that Xia Qingying and the others had the preconceived notion that Su Zimo had only passed the One of Nine Heavenly Tribulation.
“The upper world is vast and filled with Heaven and Earth Essence Qi everywhere. Why is the Heaven and Earth Essence Qi on the Dragon Abyss Star so thin?”
Su Zimo frowned slightly.
“I don’t know about that,”
Old Yan shook his head. “Actually, we’re just some of the abandoned people. Those high and mighty Exalted Immortals don’t take us who ascended from the lower worlds seriously at all and left us here to fend for ourselves.”
“Brother Su, follow me,”
Suddenly, Old Yan said and led the way out, looking up at the distant firmaments.
Su Zimo followed his gaze.
“Brother Su, can you see that?”
Old Yan pointed to the end of the firmaments. “There’s a gigantic shadow over there. I heard that Green Cloud County is there! The Heaven and Earth Essence Qi there is ten times richer than on the Dragon Abyss Star!”
When Su Zimo left the black hole, he caught sight of the gigantic shadow up close. It covered the skies and was extremely vast and shocking!
“The wish of every cultivator that ascends to the Dragon Abyss Star is to leave this place and head to the legendary Green Cloud County.”
“Why don’t you leave?”
Su Zimo asked.
Old Yan smiled bitterly. “There’s a distant starry sky between the Dragon Abyss Star and that place. Only legendary Heaven Immortal experts can cross the starry skies.”
Su Zimo was shocked.
Did he have to cultivate to the Heaven Immortal realm to leave the Dragon Abyss Star?
Old Yan said, “Of course, I heard that there’s a teleportation formation in Dragon Abyss City that can teleport people over as well. However, the conditions for teleportation are way too stringent.”
“Most people on the Dragon Abyss Star won’t be able to achieve that even if they exhaust their entire lives.”
At the mention of that, Old Yan’s eyes dimmed.
“Back in my lower world, I was also the notorious Hell Emperor! Everyone said that I was the reincarnation of Yama!”
Old Yan smiled bitterly. “However, I still ended up in this state after my ascension to the upper world.”
Su Zimo was silent.
As Old Yan had said, none of those who could ascend were nobodies.
All of them were paragons and monster incarnates of the lower worlds!
However, these people ascended and were abandoned on this remote star. The Heaven and Earth Essence Qi was thin and their cultivation speed was slow. Even their wills gradually dimmed and were no longer the same as before.
“Old Yan, how long has it been since you ascended?”
Su Zimo asked.
Old Yan reminisced for a moment before saying sadly, “More than 10,000 years.”
Even after more than 10,000 years, Old Yan was only at the Grade 1 Black Immortal realm!
The situation on the Dragon Abyss Star was even worse than Su Zimo had imagined.
Old Yan said, “100,000 years pass in the blink of an eye. I reckon that I won’t have the chance to leave in this lifetime.”
After ascending to the upper world, Su Zimo could sense that his lifespan had not changed much and was still 100,000 years.
Su Zimo said, “In that case, there’s really nothing good about the upper world. After ascending, your lifespan did not increase. Instead, you were abandoned on this desolate star. It’s better to be invincible and carefree in the lower worlds.”
“It’s different!”
When he heard that, Old Yan’s eyes lit up with a bright glint. He was invigorated and his earlier depression was swept away.
“Brother Su, do you know that infants born in the upper world are innately fused with Heaven and Earth Essence Qi? They save a lot of effort in cultivating and start from the Grade 1 Black Immortal realm!”
“The foundation of an infant born in the upper world is much higher than the lower worlds! Their future accomplishments will far surpass mine!”
“Let me tell you, the descendants of those Exalted Immortals will have to use countless universal treasures to assist, nourish, refine their flesh, tendons and bones. There’s even a superior-grade spirit gathering technique that can create Essence Spirits for them.”
Old Yan smiled. “To be honest, my son has just turned two months old. I intend to save up more Essence Condensation Pills. Even if there aren’t any universal treasures, I’ll have to exchange a cultivation technique that can condense Essence Spirits and lay a good foundation for him.”
“Although I have no hope of leaving Dragon Abyss Star in this lifetime, I hope that he can go out and take a look at Green Cloud County and roam the world!”
At the mention of that, Old Yan became excited.
Su Zimo smiled as well.
At that moment, the middle-aged man before him was not the Hell Emperor or Old Yan who dominated the lower world.
He was only a father.
