365: A vast world

It wasn't until this moment that Ye Haoran realized how laughable his previous understanding had been.

At first, he thought Su Chen came from the Immortal Realm. While that logic still held true, it was vastly different from what he had imagined.

He knew his Revered Master was much stronger than him, but he had never felt that he himself was weak.

But after hearing Su Chen's words, he felt that he was truly weak to the extreme.

The insufferably arrogant Martial God of the Xuanhuang Realm seemed to be nothing more than a bottom-tier existence in the world his Revered Master described.

At least, based on the ranking of Realms, that was indeed the case.

The Soul Transformation Stage!

It was at the very bottom, too low. It was extremely far even from becoming a Saint, let alone the Emperor Realm that followed.

Su Chen turned his head to glance at him. Seeing his incredibly shocked expression, a smile played at the corners of his mouth.

These words were also intended as a warning, to ensure Ye Haoran wouldn't become too arrogant after going to the Immortal Realm and would instead remain cautious and low-key.

After a long silence, Ye Haoran asked again, "Revered Master, are you from the Immortal Realm? And are there even more powerful Realms in the Immortal Realm?"

Su Chen nodded with a smile. "Yes."

"However, knowing this won't help you right now. After you arrive in the Immortal Realm, first raise your cultivation to the Great Emperor Peak Realm. That shouldn't be too difficult for you."

Ye Haoran nodded with a determined expression. "Your Disciple obeys!"

Accompanied by the shimmering light around them, a blinding glare soon appeared in the distance.

Ye Haoran felt his head spinning, and his whole being was thrown into a daze. Of course, it wasn't his Physical Body being tossed around, but his Divine Soul.

After only a moment, the two appeared atop Mount Wangyun.

The moment Ye Haoran appeared, surging immortal power immediately flooded into his body, beginning to reconstruct his Physical Body, and his cultivation level began to soar.

From the Soul Transformation Stage, he broke through directly to the Return to Origin Stage in a single step.

On Mount Wangyun were Yan Wanwan and the other two women. Sensing the commotion, they all came over. When they saw the Lingxiao Sect identity Jade Pendant at Ye Haoran's waist, they immediately understood.

This must be the fourth Disciple Su Chen had mentioned before.

Ye Haoran also reacted quickly. He looked around; the scenery here was indeed incomparable to anywhere in the Xuanhuang Realm.

He had imagined what the Immortal Realm would be like, but seeing it for himself, he was still incredibly shocked.

Just then, Ye Haoran noticed Yan Wanwan and the other two women in the distance.

So beautiful!

Even Ye Haoran, an old bachelor who had absolutely no interest in matters of love, couldn't help but be momentarily dazed, shocked by the beauty of Yan Wanwan and the others.

No one in the entire Xuanhuang Realm could match even a fraction of such exquisite beauty.

However, his gaze only lingered for a split second before he hurriedly lowered his head, not daring to take another look.

Su Chen waved his hand, and a golden yellow light swept toward the distance. At the same time, he said calmly to Ye Haoran, "These three are your Mistresses..."

He introduced Yan Wanwan and the others one by one. Ye Haoran hurriedly knelt down respectfully and bowed to the three of them.

"Haoran greets the three Mistresses!"

Yan Wanwan and the others were not stingy either. Since it was their first meeting, they gave Ye Haoran some small gifts.

Soon.

A voice echoed in Su Chen's mind.

"Greetings, Revered Master!"

It was Han Li's voice. Su Chen had specifically sent a message to inform him to come to the Profound Sky Realm.

Since Ye Haoran was unfamiliar with this world and his cultivation was far too weak, Su Chen planned to have Han Li look after him for a while.

After all, they were fellow Disciples of the same sect. This would also allow them to build a rapport so they wouldn't be unable to even name each other in the future.

After Su Chen explained the general situation, Han Li immediately accepted the task. He had been feeling a bit bored lately.

His comprehension of the Great Dao had shown almost no progress, or the progress was negligible. Having a Junior Brother would give him something to do.

Of course.

There was an even more crucial factor: from now on, he would no longer be the youngest, the third Disciple.

Su Chen said to Ye Haoran, "For the next period of time, you will Cultivate together with the third Disciple of the Lingxiao Sect, your Senior Brother Han Li."

Senior Brother?

Han Li?

Ye Haoran's heart was filled with doubt and a bit of unease, worrying that this Senior Brother he had never met might not like him.

His emotional fluctuations today far exceeded those he had experienced over a million years in the Xuanhuang Realm.

His vision blurred, and he suddenly found himself in a murky place, surrounded by surging, colorful energy.

Chaos!

That is, outside the Profound Sky Realm.

Ye Haoran soon saw a young man in a long robe standing ahead. While his appearance wasn't exceptionally handsome, he was quite pleasant to look at, with a gentle and magnanimous temperament that gave the impression of a good person.

The moment he saw Han Li, Ye Haoran breathed a sigh of relief. Judging by his temperament, this Senior Brother didn't seem difficult to get along with.

"Haoran greets Senior Brother!"

Han Li sized him up and then nodded with a smile.

In the next instant, the two vanished from the spot.

Han Li had been to the Xuanhuang Realm, so he immediately sensed that Ye Haoran was from there and knew his cultivation was very weak.

He immediately knew what Su Chen's purpose was in having him take Ye Haoran along.

Han Li directly took Ye Haoran to the weakest world in the Immortal Realm.

Over the past million years, the Divine Court had brought almost all the worlds ranked after the Myriad Star Realm under its banner. However, the Divine Court didn't manage many of the later worlds closely; it only sent people to station there and required the leading forces within them to pay annual tribute to the Divine Court.

Basically, in worlds ranked outside the top twenty, there were no powerful experts. The Divine Court had occupied them simply because their slogan was to unify the Immortal Realm.

Therefore, even those weaker worlds had to be brought under their control.

The two soon arrived at the Nine Yang Realm.

"Junior Brother, let your tempering begin here."
