594: World within a World

From then on, Chen De successfully obtained an Immortal Law Realm identity belonging to Luohong Hall.

Although this Qing Chi was just a piece of trash in the hall, the identity was what mattered.

With this identity, Chen De could now carry out his operations.

This area was covered by the Grand Array, but he had hacked it as soon as he arrived.

There was no way any commotion would leak out!

...Arriving at the area where the Luohong Hall headquarters was located, the scale of the work was truly impressive; the entire patch of starry sky it occupied had been folded.

From the outside, the Luohong Continent appeared to be the size of a normal planet.

But in reality, after several overlaps, that small area was more than a million times its original size.

This was the power of the Immortal Law Realm Ninth Transformation, formidable and awe-inspiring.

Furthermore, due to the immortal nature of the Immortal Law, the effects on this place could last indefinitely under normal circumstances.

The prestige of the Immortal Law Realm was still very high throughout the entire universe.

And among them, the Immortal Law Realm Ninth Transformation was the pinnacle of the pinnacle.

Of course, Chen De wasn't afraid; it was only good for intimidating minor characters.

Then, he stepped inside without hesitation, and the scene before his eyes changed instantly.

Everywhere were beautiful mountains and clear waters, with the fragrance of flowers and the singing of birds; top-grade spiritual herbs grew on the ground like common weeds.

To those in the Immortal Law Realm, they really were just weeds.

Additionally, as soon as he stepped into this area, Chen De felt a sense of suppression.

Ordinary cultivators in the Immortal Law Realm would be suppressed almost to the Mortal Realm here.

If Qing Chi's strength were calculated here, it would be at the level of the Myriad Transformations Realm, First Level.

Only upon reaching the late stage of the Immortal Law Realm, such as the Immortal Law Realm Seventh Transformation level, could one exert the power of the Immortal Realm.

This was likely a measure set by the Hall Master of Luohong Hall; otherwise, even a minor conflict between two disciples would cause a commotion larger than the entire headquarters.

Moreover, the time flow here was more than ten times that of the outside world, and the concentration of spiritual energy was ridiculously high.

Even though it was so high, it hadn't liquefied; if it were outside, they would have been drowned in the liquid formed by the condensed spiritual energy.

But here, it appeared no different from the spiritual energy outside.

Achieving this was very difficult because this place wasn't isolated like a Small World, but directly connected to the universe.

Thus, changing the time flow became particularly difficult.

Simultaneously, there was the erosion of the universe's normal time flow, making it even harder to maintain.

But it had to be said that the advantage of being able to cultivate here was truly immense.

Within Luohong Hall, those below the Immortal Realm were Menial Disciples, while those in the Immortal Realm were formal disciples.

Disciples of different levels were divided into different areas.

Qing Chi was a formal disciple of Luohong Hall, so he stayed in the formal disciple area.

Chen De had no interest in the Menial Disciples' side; even all of them combined couldn't compare to one person in the Immortal Law Realm.

Soon, Chen De arrived before the entrance to a Small World.

That space just now was divided into a layered structure, layer upon layer.

Each layer was composed of countless Small Worlds, with the outermost ones specifically used for training Menial Disciples.

Luohong Hall wouldn't send powerful experts to teach or specifically manage the Small Worlds of the Menial Disciples.

Instead, those Menial Disciples were left to survive and cultivate on their own, permitted to kill one another, with resources and cultivation techniques being provided at regular intervals.

As long as you could become powerful, you could use any means necessary inside.

If a Menial Disciple managed to break through to the Immortal Realm, they could formally join Luohong Hall and become a formal disciple.

Then they would enter the next layer of this area, the formal disciple area.

This area was spherical, so the outer layers were definitely larger than the inner ones; similarly, the number of Small Worlds in the formal disciple area was significantly reduced.

Luohong Hall would specifically dispatch experts to teach and provide a certain level of management for each Small World located in the second layer.

They would no longer be allowed to kill each other or use unscrupulous means.

If one could break through to the middle stage of the Immortal Law Realm, which is the Immortal Law Realm Four Transformations, they could proceed to the third layer, the core disciple area.

Breaking through to the late stage, the Immortal Law Realm Seventh Transformation, allowed one to go to the fourth layer, the true disciple/elder area.

At the same time, the Hall Master of Luohong Hall also resided there.

This meant that even with Chen De's true strength, he couldn't even enter the innermost layer and could only stay in the second-to-last layer.

At the same time, the innermost layer was different from the others; while the other layers had many worlds.

It's just that as the layers went deeper, the number of worlds increased and their sizes grew larger.

The innermost layer had only one world, where all the top experts of Luohong Hall were located.

If Chen De wanted to go there, he had to pass through each layer one by one.

However, one thing was in Chen De's favor: he could travel to other Small Worlds within the same layer.

He could completely take over this entire layer before moving on to the next one.

However, this also required paying a significant cross-realm fee to purchase a cross-realm token.

Otherwise, traveling privately would be considered smuggling, which would not only lead to severe punishment but might even cost one's life.

The benefit was that the whereabouts of these disciples would be traceable, making it easy to investigate if anything happened.

Ascending to a higher layer was also called Ascension; many Small Worlds in the outer layers belonged to a single Small World in the next layer, and many of those belonged to a Small World in the layer after that.

For example, the ID of the outermost Small World where Qing Chi was originally located was 1 54 149 1469.

These four numbers represented its position in the innermost layer, the third layer, the second layer, and the outermost layer, respectively.

It meant that it was the 1469th Small World under the 149th Small World, which was under the 54th Small World of the innermost layer.

And every person in the Immortal Law Realm had a unique identity id.

For example, Qing Chi's identity id was 1 54 149 1469 ①⑨.

This meant he was the 19th Immortal Law Realm expert of this outermost Small World.

If he could break through to the Immortal Law Realm Four Transformations, his identity id would become 1 54 149 ⑦.

Meaning he would be the seventh Immortal Law Realm Four Transformations expert of this second-layer Small World.

And the Hall Master of Luohong Hall's identity id was 1 ①.

Everyone else, no matter who they were, had an identity id with at least four digits.

A Menial Disciple's Ascension sequence was determined by the outermost Small World they were assigned to when they first arrived.

Normally, Qing Chi's Ascension sequence would be 1 54 149 1469 -> 1 54 149 -> 1 54 -> 1.

Although one could travel to other Small Worlds on the same layer, the Ascension sequence would not change.

Furthermore, corresponding Ascension Channels only existed within one's assigned Small World.

Every Small World would have a manager whose strength was definitely enough to suppress all the experts within that Small World.

Standing before the Small World entrance, Chen De took out Qing Chi's identity token and brought it close.

Then, a beam of light shot out from the entrance, scanning him to confirm that he matched the identity information on the token.
