Chapter 121: 95 Sun Qiang Comes

Suspended in the midair of the new world, Zhang Xuan’s spirit moved, his intention enveloping the entire world. In the next moment, he teleported and appeared inside a vast hall.

In the center of the hall stood a statue of a girl in her twenties, clothed in red silk that accentuated her slender waist, tall in stature with an innate heroic spirit in her brows—it was his eldest disciple, Zhao Ya!

Five years ago, he had learned the art of world creation from his father-in-law Nie Yun. After completing this world, he brought over Zhao Ya, Zheng Yang, and others. Here, it was easier for everyone to comprehend the rules, and finally a year ago, they gained recognition from heaven and earth, also reaching the realm of a God Monarch.

Even Sun Qiang, the steward with not so great talent, had achieved such cultivation level under his repeated infusion of strength.

The God Monarchs of the new world and the Empyrean were both recognized by heaven and earth; there was no difference in strength between them. In other words, Sun Qiang at that moment was an expert not inferior to the likes of Fairy Linglong and the Deathless Monarch.

“No need to search; I am here. Come over!”

With his hands behind his back, Zhang Xuan spoke faintly.

This statue, receiving the worship and offerings of the masses, retained a trace of Zhao Ya’s intention. Speaking here meant that even if the other was in the Empyrean created by Nie Yun, they could communicate with a thought and thus be aware of his words.

In the Empyrean, the Sky of Freedom, The Elder Assembly.

Nie Lingxi, Luo Qiqi, the Deathless God Monarch, Zhao Ya, Zheng Yang and others gathered together, each with furrowed brows, a heavy atmosphere, as if the air in the room had solidified.

“They couldn’t really have rushed into that so-called Source World, could they?”

Murmuring softly, worry filled Nie Lingxi’s eyes.

With Zhang Xuan gone without a word, they were all extremely worried, having searched almost everywhere possible without finding a trace of him.

“That place is full of dangers. Just going like that, I’m afraid they’ll encounter danger…” Yuan Tao shrank his neck.

“Does the clan head know the way? If not, we can go over too…” Standing up, Zheng Yang’s gaze was filled with determination.

“Right, it’s better for all of us to have someone to watch each other’s backs!” Liu Yang said.

Wherever their teacher was, that was where they would go—it was an instinct formed long ago.

“I’ve only heard about it; how to enter, or where to go, I’m not clear on…”

Nie Lingxi shook her head, “Everyone, don’t panic. If he’s really alright, he will definitely send a message to me. Since we can’t find him, it’s better to just wait here…”

“The clan head is right, let’s just wait…”

Consoling her, Zhao Ya’s voice had not yet finished when she seemed to sense something, abruptly rising to her feet, her beautiful eyes filled with excitement and thrill.

“What’s the matter?”

Everyone turned to look at her in unison.

“The teacher’s in the new world; he just contacted me…”

Zhao Ya hurriedly explained.

“Then what are we waiting for, let’s go…”

Nie Lingxi breathed a sigh of relief, her delicate figure leaping up as she flew out, everyone else following close behind.

Flying higher and higher, in just a dozen breaths, they arrived in front of a massive portal floating in the chaos.

This was a spatial passageway constructed by Zhang Xuan and Nie Yun before. With this, one could freely travel between the new world and the Empyrean.

Taking out two tokens, they placed them into two slots on the portal. The next moment, with a creaking noise, the portal slowly opened, emitting a unique aura.

Although the new world was connected to the Empyrean, they were ultimately two separate worlds, each with different rules that could not fully intermingle. Otherwise, some rules might clash and be annihilated, ultimately leading to world collapse.

For this reason, even though Zhang Xuan’s current cultivation had reached the realm of a master of a single realm, he dared not easily return to the Empyrean to avoid trouble.

Of course, not easily returning didn’t mean he couldn’t return.

“Let’s go!”

With the portal wide open, Zhao Ya and the others came forward, and immediately, one by one, they entered and disappeared from the spot, reappearing in the large hall where the statue of Zhao Ya was. They saw the figure they had been longing to see.

“You’re all here!”

Seeing everyone arrived, not one missing, Zhang Xuan smiled slightly.

“Zhang Xuan!”

“Teacher!”

Seeing him safe and sound, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

“You really went to the Source World, how is it over there?” Seeing her husband’s aura even more solid and profound than before, beyond her perception, Nie Lingxi asked out of curiosity.

“The rules there are stricter than here…” Zhang Xuan explained in detail everything that had happened these days.

Of course, being beaten by the horse, with students here, wasn’t convenient to elaborate on…

“I came over this time to bring Sun Qiang over first, to see if we can find some ways to earn money. Once we have some capital and enough Heavenly Mandate Vitality, I will bring all of you over!”

Zhang Xuan elaborated on his intentions once more.

“Alright, I’ll go with the young master!” Sun Qiang walked out.

“Teacher, we want to go too!” Zhao Ya immediately spoke up.

“We’d like to go together as well…” Zheng Yang also came over.

“The Order of the Origin World is extremely sensitive, and after I arrived, I had to hide all my strength completely within the new world, not daring to reveal even a bit in order to slip by unnoticed. If so many of you go together, it’s very likely to attract attention. In that case, you won’t be helping me but rather forcing me to constantly clean up messes…”

Zhang Xuan waved his hand.

Being in a new environment with a group of familiar and trustworthy people is indeed good, but the Origin World is different. A single misstep could lead to total disaster, so caution must be taken at every turn.

“Yes…”

“`

Although they were unwilling, they dared not to argue and nodded in agreement.

“Young Master, let me join you!”

The little yellow chick chuckled: “I have an indestructible body, and I can also turn into the shape of a chick, so I doubt anyone will notice…”

“You? Forget about it…”

Despite appearing quite obedient, this guy was by no means any less of a troublemaker. Coming all the way from the Master Teacher Continent, hadn’t it always been one disaster after another?

“I…”

Nie Lingxi was about to speak but was interrupted by Zhang Xuan: “Lingxi, I’m giving you a mission. I suspect that Empyrean Kong shi and my father-in-law might be in danger. Keep an eye out for any messages from them, and inform me immediately if there’s any!”

Nie Lingxi nodded gently, her tender eyes revealing a trace of concern: “Then… how do I contact you?”

The two were worlds apart, no longer able to communicate with a mere thought like they currently could.

Zhang Xuan pointed a finger, creating a strand of sword qi at his fingertip, which flew in front of his wife: “This is the Heaven-Sentiment Sword Qi. If you really need to contact me, channel what you want to say into the sword qi. Even if we’re worlds apart, I’ll know instantly.”

Such was a power that transcended heaven’s mandate, naturally capable of breaking through the shackles between two worlds.

“Alright!” Nie Lingxi nodded without further words.

“Let’s go!”

After assuring everyone, Zhang Xuan stopped wasting words. With a gesture through the air, he and Sun Qiang disappeared on the spot and reappeared within the small courtyard.

“Such an overwhelming sense of oppression…”

As soon as Sun Qiang entered the Origin World, he felt as if his body weighed over ten thousand pounds. His knees buckled, and he collapsed to the ground, seemingly unable to even stand.

Just as he thought to use his strength to resist this pressure, his young master’s voice sounded.

“Don’t circulate your strength…”

Zhang Xuan instructed with raised eyebrows: “Let the Origin qi seal your cultivation! Otherwise, your power will clash with this world’s rules, and you might easily trigger a cultivation ordeal…”

While the laws of a new world might differ from those of the Origin World, with the cultivation of a God Monarch, he could resist such pressures. But it made him much more likely to give himself away.

Initially, when he arrived in this world, he had done the same, or else a ruler of a whole world wouldn’t have ended up so miserably, repeatedly getting thrashed by a horse for several days to the point of starvation.

“I’m afraid I can’t hold on…”

Sun Qiang clenched his teeth.

“Hold on a moment…”

Recognizing the oppression was from space, Zhang Xuan’s spirit stirred, and hundreds of books from the Library of Heaven’s Path transformed into clusters of pure strength, burrowing into Sun Qiang.

Heavenly Mandate Vitality!

This substance, capable of solidifying the Suspended Realm and the Source Pool, naturally helped resist external pressures.

Indeed, with the Heavenly Mandate Vitality entering his body, Sun Qiang no longer felt the discomfort from before and managed to stand straight once more.

“Young Master, is this the Origin World? It’s truly terrifying…”

Wiping the cold sweat from his forehead, Sun Qiang was deeply shaken.

Lucky that the young master had prepared in advance, otherwise, just arriving might have killed him…

“I will open up a space inside you, and you can use it to cultivate as if it was the Origin World! Once you temper your body with Origin qi, things will become much better…”

Knowing his circumstances, said Zhang Xuan.

Since even he couldn’t find the supposed Source Pool, the same would be true for the other, so… to cultivate, a space needed to be opened up.

It didn’t need to be too big, just enough to contain several thousand Heavenly Mandate Vitalities.

After explaining, Zhang Xuan’s thoughts flickered, and in a short time, he had created a modest space within Sun Qiang’s body.

But without the Heavenly Mandate Vitality to stabilize it, the space wouldn’t allow cultivation.

The more than twenty thousand Heavenly Mandate Vitalities he had just received from School Head Lu and the Liu Clan head had already been expended on reading books and similar activities… The last bit was also used to stabilize Sun Qiang’s form.

Without Heavenly Mandate Vitality to solidify the Source Pool, he dared not absorb Origin qi. It seemed that before this issue was resolved, Sun Qiang’s cultivation would be an unlikely possibility.

“Where to find it?”

Rubbing his temples, Zhang Xuan fell into deep thought.

…

While he wore a troubled expression, on the other hand, Liu Tianzheng had already returned to the Liu Residence.

“This pisses me off…”

Upon returning to his room, the Liu Clan head could not help but roar furiously, slapping the table and scaring the subordinates around him into involuntarily shrinking their necks.

“Elder, what happened?”

The First Elder Liu Tianming approached.

“Where’s Lord Xu Xin?”

Letting out a sigh of frustration, Liu Tianzheng looked over.

Indeed, he had already thought it through and was planning to report everything about Zhang Xuan in detail.

How dare he deceive his daughter and disown even his own father – it was time to endure the repercussions he’d bring!

Slap the label of “Mandate Chaos Master” on his forehead and see if he’d dare show disrespect to the Liu Clan again!
