160: Boundary Sea!

"The Realm Sea is about to open."

The Realm Sea?!

It was the first time Li Qi had heard of such a thing as the Realm Sea, and he was momentarily confused.

Seeing Li Qi's puzzled look, Xiang Zhizhou gave him an explanation.

The Realm Sea is a very peculiar existence; it is the ruins left behind after a world's destruction, as well as the ocean where new worlds are born.

Everything in the world is constantly withering and being destroyed, yet also continuously welcoming new life!

Life is endless, and Reincarnation is a cycle!

This aligns with the ultimate truths of the world!!!

Precisely because of its unique attributes, the Realm Sea contains many good things, including secret treasures left over from the destruction of previous worlds and various opportunities from the birth of new ones.

Among these, there is one item that is extremely useful for the vast majority of those in the Yan Fa Realm!

A world core!

The Realm after the Yan Fa Realm is the World King Realm. To Breakthrough to the World King Realm, one needs to open up a world of their own within their body, becoming the king of that world!

That is a terrifying existence, akin to a Creator God!

Wielding the power of a world!

Thus, the World King Realm earned its name.

But opening a world is incredibly difficult. Not only does it require consuming a massive amount of the Laws of Heaven and Earth to weave the world, but it also needs to be supplemented with precious Materials, and the world core is one of them.

world cores can be obtained in the Realm Sea. They are the most precious substances from the beginning of a world's birth, containing the world's spiritual rhythm. They are a significant stroke of fortune that can greatly increase the success rate of opening a world.

For the vast majority of Yan Fa Realm experts, a world core is of vital importance.

"Li Qi, when the time comes, you will head to the Realm Sea with other Yan Fa Realm Disciples from the sect. You should try your best to find a way to bring back as many world cores as possible."

"You need world cores yourself... and others in the sect need them as well."

Xiang Zhizhou spoke with a serious expression as he made the arrangements.

Li Qi was somewhat puzzled: "Since world cores are so important, why doesn't the sect send out a large number of powerful experts to get more of them? We in the Yan Fa Realm might be a bit..."

In the outside world, someone in the Yan Fa Realm would be a powerhouse capable of supporting a massive Family.

But within the vast Four Seas Sect, the Yan Fa Realm was only so-so; there were plenty of existences far stronger than those in the Yan Fa Realm.

Since world cores were precious and important strategic resources, they had to be fought for by any means necessary. It wouldn't even be surprising if Xiang Zhizhou, the Sect Head himself, took action.

But only sending those in the Yan Fa Realm to compete for world cores was somewhat difficult to understand.

However, Xiang Zhizhou seemed to have expected Li Qi to ask this and began to explain.

"The reason for this is simple... because only those in the Yan Fa Realm can be sent to the Realm Sea!"

"As I mentioned before, the Realm Sea is very special, existing in a transitional phase between destruction and birth. Such a place is too fragile, like a newly sprouted seed, and simply cannot support existences that are too powerful."

"If a World King Realm expert were to appear in the Realm Sea, even if they did nothing... the Realm Sea would shatter and collapse because of it!"

"The Yan Fa Realm is the strongest combat power that the Realm Sea can sustain!"

Li Qi realized: "I see, this Disciple understands."

A hint of seriousness appeared on Xiang Zhizhou's face as he reminded him: "The Realm Sea opens every five years. At that time, not only will people from our Four Seas Sect enter, but people from other Schools and factions will also go there."

"Of course... that includes the rival factions of the Four Seas Sect!"

"You must be careful then and not act recklessly."

Just after saying this, Xiang Zhizhou shook his head, feeling he had spoken nonsense. Why would he need to worry about a World Breaker who had fought his way out from the masses of the Lower Realm?

It was truly unnecessary.

More accurately, it wasn't that Li Qi needed to be careful... but rather that everyone else needed to be careful of him.

After explaining the matter of the Realm Sea clearly to Li Qi, Xiang Zhizhou left, and Li Qi began to ponder.

"The Realm Sea, huh..."

"It seems I must make a trip there."

The Realm Sea contains not only world cores but also other good things; someone once retrieved a Legacy left behind by a powerhouse from a previous world!

Even the world was destroyed, yet the Legacy was preserved; anyone with half a brain could tell that such a Legacy must be extraordinary!

And that lucky person who obtained the Legacy soared to greatness because of it!

Stories of obtaining earth-shattering opportunities in the Realm Sea happened from time to time, making many people yearn for it.

In the following days, Li Qi stabilized his Realm daily. He had broken through too quickly and urgently, leaving his Realm somewhat unstable.

After a few days, when Li Qi's Realm was completely stabilized, he took out the Profound Mysteries Secret Record and began to flip through it.

It recorded a large number of Foundation Establishment methods and could be called a basic encyclopedia for Cultivators. Li Qi saw a technique within it called Hundred-Day Foundation Establishment.

This is the most widely circulated introductory Cultivation method among Cultivators. Its nature is balanced and peaceful, its difficulty is moderate, and there is absolutely no possibility of Qi Deviation.

"Since I cannot Breakthrough to the World King Realm for the time being, I might as well begin my practice on the path of Cultivation."

Li Qi said slowly. A place like the Realm Sea limited the upper ceiling of strength. If he could achieve success in the path of Cultivation while his Martial Dao was at the Yan Fa Realm... he would surely hold a massive advantage when competing for opportunities in the Realm Sea!

"Level up Hundred-Day Foundation Establishment!"
