Soaring of Galaxia

After three days, the people of the Heavenly Emperor Eight Gate gathered together and departed on time.

For a radius of two or three million miles around the Heavenly Emperor Mountain, besides the Heavenly Emperor Gate, the Heavenly Emperor Eight Gates shared the same ranking. However, the interaction between them were not frequent.

After all, when they had reached their position, they were more vigilant than associating with each other. Besides the Heavenly Punishing Villa and the Sound of Thunder Sect who appeared to be undisguised alliance, all other sects did not interact closely. At least on the surface, one could not see such trend.

The person that leads the team from the Qin Clan was Qin Yunran. As if shared with mutual understanding, almost each leader of each sect had been the number two figure.

Of course, this was to be expected. The number one elite warrior would oversee the mountain gate under normal circumstance. It would be rare for them to head out.

Qin Wushuang was part of the Qin team and did not try to show off deliberately. Clearly, Qin Taichong had shown consideration to Qin Wushuang. Not only had he not crowd out this Junior Brother that rose at a speedy rate, he had shown great consideration to demonstrate an unusually and enormous amount of vision.

Qin Taichong set as an example had slowly eased the relationship between the five Junior Brothers. Initially, Qin Hongyan who were inharmonious with Qin Wushuang had slowly become acquainted with him. In the later stage, they realized with astonishment that this Junior Brother Qin Wushuang was extremely easy to get along. He was completely different than what they have thought about.

Initially, Qin Zhining had not participate Qin Shaohong’s mission. As a clean-living and honest person, he had admired Qin Taichong the most in his lifetime. Now upon seeing Qin Wushuang’s exceptional strength, he was not jealous. On the contrary, he had emerged some traces of admiration.

He did not only admire Qin Wushuang’s strength, he was also admiring his insight. At least for his understanding of the Ascending Dragon Slope, it were something Senior Brother Qin Taichong never thought about. Naturally, Qin Zhining never thought deeply about these problems. After Qin Wushuang had exposed it, he thought it was really this way after some in depth thought.

Although there was a fixed transportation route from the Xuan Yuan Mound to the Illusion Heavenly Lake, it was an extraordinary long trekking.

After about half a month, they had arrived at the border between the Xuan Yuan Mound and the Illusion Heavenly Lake. Now, they were already two or three hundred million miles away from that Heavenly Emperor Mountain.

On the same night, they were settling at the border, the Fantasy Moon Prefecture. Of course, these Heavenly Emperor Eight Gates had shared mutual understanding for they do not plan to spread one’s voice wide. It would be even more troublesome if they had give rise to local practice sects to come fawn upon them and make a big fuss of it.

The Fantasy Moon Prefecture do not have the greatest area among the seventy-two prefectures among the Xuan Yuan Mound. However, due to it’s long and narrow topography, it revealed to be a unique place. After they had settled down, Qin Yunran gathered the five major disciples to his room. Clearly, he had somethings he would need to instruct them.

When the five major disciples had sat down, Qin Yunran said: “Taichong, how do you feel?”

Qin Taichong laughed: “Not to hide it from you, I am looking forward to it. This is my first time going to the Illusion Heavenly Lake.”

“What about you guys?”

In fact, everyone had shared similar feelings and expressed a somewhat identical intentions.

“Perhaps, the Illusion Heavenly Lake is the most peaceful place among the five Forbidden Spiritual Zone. The sects within the Illusion Heavenly Lake rarely fight at close-quarters like other Forbidden Spiritual Zone. However, this did not mean the Illusion Heavenly Lake is a place where you can come and go freely.”

Qin Yunran said with a serious tone: “In fact, this Illusion Heavenly Lake is extremely xenophobic. Especially to the Xuan Yuan Mound and the Extreme North Snow Zone.”

Qin Wushuang found it to be somewhat strange. He remembered that the Illusion Heavenly Lake, the Xuan Yuan Mound and the Extreme North Snow Zone were all Forbidden Spiritual Zone occupied and governed by human martial artists. They had interacted a lot with each other.

The half man half beast of the Heavenly Fire Southern Border, and the beast clan governed the Endless Eastern Sea. This was the general outlook of the five Forbidden Spiritual Zone. Previously, Qin Wushuang had heard these two major chief mentioned about it.

Why did the Second Chief said it this way?

“You must feel very strange, for the Illusion Heavenly Lake is a place governed by human martial artists, why is it not friendly with the Xuan Yuan Mound and the Extreme North Snow Zone? Right?” Qin Yunran asked with a smile.

Qin Wushuang said: “Second Chief, could it be there is some classic story?”

Qin Yunran gave a long sigh: “In fact there is no classic story. To speak it honestly, it’s about gratitudes and resentment, love and hatred. Among the five great Forbidden Spiritual Zone, the Illusion Heavenly Lake is the only Forbidden Spiritual Zone governed by female. Inside those sects of the Illusion Heavenly Lake, it’s almost all governed by female. Even at the Karakorum Immortal Clan, more than half of the martial artists are female.”

“Second Chief, why would that be the case? Could it be the topography of the Illusion Heavenly Lake serves more to a advantage to female martial artists? That caused such an excess of more female than male situation?” Qin Hao could not refrain himself from asking.

In ordinary situations, they would be training at the Xuan Yuan Mound Heavenly Emperor Mountain. They had rarely had the chance to get to know other classical stories of the Forbidden Spiritual Zone. Upon hearing the words of the Second Chief, everyone had shown strong interest.

“In fact it’s not really related to the structural of the ground. According to legend, in the ancient times the Illusion Heavenly Lake is the birth place of Queen Mother of the West during the mythology era. Therefore, the domination of female martial artists was to be in the vogue. When it passed to this point, it formed today’s situation.”

To these classical stories, the young disciples had almost not known about it.

When Qin Wushuang heard about the mythology era, he could not but help to be fascinated about it. He asked: “Second Chief, if that era of mythology had truly existed, then where is the Queen Mother of the West now? Didn’t you say that theoretically, elite warrior of the Supreme Dao is immortal?”

Qin Yunran laughed: “It’s a good question. The era of mythology is a riddle. To the Tian Xuan Land, it’s definitely an unsolvable puzzle. The legends says that the current totem clan are all descendants to the divine clan of the mythology era. During the mythology era, gods had existed. They would bid for the state of power in the world. It had been praised as the golden era at the Tian Xuan Land. Only, that era was too far away. Now we can only conjecture from some tiny hints left behind. There were no exact records of the classical story. Perhaps there are some, but the sects of the Heavenly Emperor Eight Gate was oblivious to it.”

“Could it be the totem clan got hold of these information? Didn’t you say that our Qin Clan is also a sct passed down from the immemorial period?”

“The immemorial period it too long. It’s a few hundred thousand of years and even a few millions of years. The continued tradition of the Qin Clan is only less than one hundred thousand of years. It’s still too far from the true mythological era! However, among the Heavenly Emperor Eight Gate, only the Yun and the Xin Clan can match on par with the Qin Clan. I am afraid the other five sects do not even have thirty thousand years of tradition.”

When Qin Yunran talked about history, he was extremely proud.

Qin Taichong laughed straightforwardly: “All the seat of the Heavenly Emperor were usually held by these three houses. Second Chief, that totem clan is extremely mysterious. Just how strong are they?”

Everyone had cared extremely about this question. The totem clan is extremely mysterious, and yet everyone do not have much information of it. They all wanted to get hold of some knowledge with this opportunity.

Unexpectedly, Qin Yunran is also an incredible hoodlum character. He laughed: “Don’t look at me. I am afraid only the Head Chief can answer this question. Only the Heavenly Emperor Gate is qualified to interact with the Xuan Yuan clan. It’s been too far since the Qin Clan sat on the Heavenly Emperor seat. For all this time, the Xin Clan was sitting on it. When the Qin Clan was the host, me and the Third Chief are not even born. I am afraid the Head Chief was only a young disciple in that time.”

Qin Taichong laughed: “The Head Chief is as mysterious as the Xuan Yuan Clan. Up to this point, I only know there is a Head Chief and I had never seen him.”

“It’s normal, the Head Chief has been in solitary training for more than two hundred years. Before his solitary training, he said that he would be in solitary training for five hundred years the longest. If all goes well, he will come out before the Heavenly Emperor Mountain pageant in seventeen years. If it did not go well, everyone just be prepared to wait for a long time.”

Five hundred years…

As soon as he spoke these words, it made Qin Wushuang and the others look at each other in dismay. Among them, Qin Taichong was the oldest, and only about a hundred years old.

In other words, when the Head Chief went to solitary training, each of them were not born yet.

Qin Hao laughed and said: “Second Chief, actually we really want to know what is the Supreme Dao exactly.”

“Supreme Dao stage…” Qin Yunran said with a leisure tone, “To put it bluntly, it’s to refine your corporeal body, and bring success to your Divine Soul. The corporeal body of an elite warrior at the Supreme Dao all have the metal body of the Supreme Dao. Non Supreme Dao weapon cannot hurt a hair of it. The strongest part of an elite warrior at the Supreme Dao is not their corporeal body, but the Divine Soul. Powerful Supreme Dao warrior can murder people with their Divine Soul. In the instant of a thought, they can maneuver the elemental attributes to attack their enemies.”

“This powerful?” Qin Hao and the others could not but help to be astonished.

“Would you like to try?” Qin Yunran asked with a faint smile.

Qin Hao scratched his head: “No thanks. Ha ha.”

Qin Wushuang asked: “Second Chief, we know all about the stages beneath this Supreme Dao. However, how is the Supreme Dao stage classified? I don’t know about it, please help with my confusion.”

In fact, the others would not know about it. Usually, one would only slowly get into contact with the Supreme Dao when they reached the peak of the Common Mysterious. Before that time, it’s unnecessary to learn about it.

“You want to hear about it?” Qin Yunran shoot a glance at everyone. When he saw everyone nodded, Qin Yunran said with a laugh: “Then I will tell you about it. However, don’t get carried away by your wishful thinking and not be able to fall asleep after hearing it. Now, you are all far away from the Supreme Dao with your current strength. You should take one step at a time. Seeking instant benefit will not allow you to enter the Supreme Dao. Honored Warrior Zhi Huai is powerful right? How come he could not enter the Supreme Dao for all this time, it’s because he thinks too much and he have too much mixed thoughts. Supreme Dao has a high requirement to the stage of the Primordial Spirit. If you do not harbor pure thoughts and have a heart devil reside in it, you will never break into the Supreme Dao. For one side, comprehending the Supreme Dao is a battle with the training barrier. On the other hand, you would be resisting with your own heart devil. It’s one matter if you are able to comprehend it, and plain and simple if you had not. There is no way to cheat.”

Qin Wushuang took these words to heart thoughtfully. He knows that he definitely have enough potential to challenge the Supreme Dao. However, the words of Second Chief will undoubtedly make him walk less roundabout route.

“The Supreme Dao stage are also classified into four great stages! Coagulate Spirit, Transformation Spirit, Genuine Spirit and the Celestial Spirit!” For the first time, Qin Yunran spoke with such solemn and dignified tone, “Majority of people in the Supreme Dao are only at the Coagulate Spirit stage. Including me, I am also one calamity away from that Transformation Spirit!”
