92: Chapter 92 The Baptism of the Immortal Realm Laws
The zhou tian star boat traveled through the void-like darkness.
It had been a long time.
Time and space had lost all meaning here.
Only the phantom images of three hundred and sixty-five stars surrounding the boat emitted an eternal, cold light.
Inside the boat, within the Small World.
The family, having grown accustomed to this tedious journey, enjoyed the rare warmth.
Li Changsheng pestered the old servant Li Fu to tell him legends of ancient gods and demons.
He would occasionally offer his own interpretation, critiquing the sword techniques of those gods and demons.
The words were childish, but the viewpoints were so sharp that even the Quasi-Emperor Puppet Li Fu was amazed again and again.
Li Qingyue pulled along the few concubines she was closest to.
Using Lunar Power, she sculpted ice statues, playing little girl games.
It was a scene of harmony and joy.
Li Xuan, who had been resting with his eyes closed, seemed to sense something.
He opened his eyes.
The coordinate at the end of the route finally responded.
"Sit tight."
His calm voice rang in everyone's ears.
The voice was not loud.
But it made everyone subconsciously stop what they were doing.
"We have arrived."
Just as he finished speaking.
Hum—the entire zhou tian star boat shook violently.
This was not an attack.
It was a penetration.
It felt like passing through an extremely thick and tough 'membrane'.
Visible spatial cracks emerged frantically outside the protective shield, only to be instantly smoothed out by the power of the Zhou Tian Star Array.
The scene outside the boat changed.
It was no longer eternal silence.
First, a ray of light.
Shone from the distant front.
The light expanded rapidly.
Turning into an endless ocean of dazzling white light.
The zhou tian star boat plunged headlong into this ocean of light.
Screech—after a piercing shriek, the violent shaking stopped abruptly.
The boat stopped.
The scene outside the boat finally became clear in everyone's view.
What kind of world was this?
The sky was not blue, but a pure purple-gold, like glazed glass.
There was no sun or moon.
Yet it radiated soft, bright light everywhere.
Beneath their feet was a churning sea of white clouds.
Amidst the sea of clouds, specks of immortal light flickered, phantom images of Dragons and Phoenixes frolicked, and the outlines of immortal mountains and jade pavilions appeared and disappeared.
The most astonishing thing was the 'air' here.
No, that was not air.
It was Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi so dense it was about to turn into liquid.
Every breeze carried an intoxicating fragrance.
Every breath felt like refining a pure Medicinal Pill.
"Is this the Immortal Domain?"
Consort Xiao Yu was extremely shocked.
The mana within her body uncontrollably boiled and leaped the moment it touched this aura.
As if cheering, as if on a pilgrimage.
The other concubines also had faces full of wonder and longing.
Their lifelong understanding was completely overturned at this moment.
However, this shock and joy lasted less than three breaths.
"Ugh."
A concubine at the lowest cultivation level, the Venerable Realm, let out a pained groan, her face turning deathly pale.
She felt an invisible, immense force pressing down on her.
Breathing became incredibly difficult.
The bones in her body emitted an overwhelmed 'crack-crack' sound.
"What is happening? My... my mana is rioting!"
"Pfft!"
Another concubine spat out blood, her aura instantly weakening.
She realized with horror that the Law imprints belonging to the Mortal Realm within her were clashing violently with the ubiquitous Immortal Dao Laws of this world.
Ice and fire.
Water meeting oil.
Two completely different rules were fighting fiercely within her body.
For a time, groans of pain sounded one after another.
The concubines who had been excited just moments ago were now all pale-faced, sitting cross-legged, desperately driving their cultivation.
They were resisting.
Resisting the domineering 'repulsive force' of the entire Immortal Domain world.
This was the difference between Immortal and Mortal.
For beings who have not attained Immortal Ascension, the Laws of the Immortal Domain are not nourishment, but deadly poison.
The Spiritual Qi of the Immortal Domain is not nectar, but arsenic.
At the critical moment.
That figure who had always been resting peacefully on the recliner finally opened his eyes.
His gaze was calm as he swept over his beloved concubines, who were struggling to hold on, their Dao Foundations on the verge of collapse.
He made no unnecessary movements.
With a thought.
Hum!
An invisible Dao Domain spread silently, centered on him.
Instantly enveloping the entire zhou tian star boat.
Emperor Domain.
The moment the Domain unfolded.
That terrifying pressure sufficient to crush a Saint, that repulsive force of the Laws that made the Divine Soul sting, vanished without a trace.
"Huff, huff."
Consort Xiao Yu and the others gasped for air, cold sweat soaking their backs, still shaken.
With their husband present, even if the sky fell, it would just be a false alarm.
They looked at Li Xuan, their eyes filled with relief and adoration.
But Li Xuan's attention did not linger on them.
His gaze fell upon the six little ones who had shown no abnormalities from beginning to end.
No.
Their 'abnormality' was the exact opposite of everyone else's.
Just now, when that force of the Immortal Domain's Laws surged forward, the Saint-level concubines were all heavily struck.
These six little ancestors, whose average age was less than three, were not only unaffected.
But on the contrary, each of them wore an expression of enjoyment and intoxication.
As if they had returned to the most suitable environment, feeling incredibly comfortable.
The eldest prince, Li Changsheng, was closing his eyes, spreading his arms, breathing greedily.
His Chaos Sword Body was rapidly devouring the more complete and sharper Sword Dao Laws of the Immortal Domain.
His aura was climbing rapidly.
The second princess, Li Qingyue, had even turned into a humanoid light source.
Her whole body radiated holy moonlight, and the pure Lunar Power in the Immortal Domain turned into streams of milky white light, actively pouring into her body.
Her Lunar Holy Body emitted bursts of joyful cicada chirps.
The money-loving third prince, Li Yuanbao, was sitting on the deck, divine light flowing in his double pupils.
In his vision, this world was a huge treasure vault composed of countless 'Dao Crystals' and 'Law Divine Gold'.
He opened his little mouth, took a fierce breath at the air, and actually swallowed a wisp of dense Immortal Qi into his belly.
He smacked his little lips.
"Hmm, this taste is much better than the Spiritual Qi at home! Valuable!"
The fourth prince, Li Daoyan, was staring blankly at the surrounding Void Realm.
In the perception of his Array Dao Holy Body, the Laws of the Immortal Domain intertwined to form a perfect, flawless Innate array he had never seen before.
He was intoxicated by it.
The fifth prince, Li Wanfa, was dancing around, his Myriad Law Body resonating with the billions of Laws of this world.
Every kind of Law was a novel 'language' to him.
He was quickly learning, mastering, and assimilating them.
Even the youngest, the sixth prince Li Lunhui, still in his swaddling clothes, was waving his chubby little fists, making excited "goo-goo, ga-ga" sounds.
The small Reincarnation mark between his eyebrows emitted a faint, ghostly light.
Declaring that this world, filled with high-level Reincarnation aura, was his true destination.
They were fish.
Returned to the ocean that belonged to them.
This scene left Consort Xiao Yu and the other mothers, who had just recovered, stunned.
They were all extremely astonished.
The same environment.
For them, it was a near-death gate of hell.
For their children, it was the dream paradise they had longed for?
Is the gap between gods and humans really this large?
Li Xuan looked at this group of frolicking little cubs and smiled.
The Mortal Realm is a fish tank, the water quality is murky, the space is narrow, restricting their growth.
And this Immortal Domain is just a slightly larger pond.
Here, their incomparable potential can finally begin to be unleashed.
He stood up.
Walked to the bow of the boat, stood with his hands behind his back, his gaze penetrating the heavy immortal mist, looking into the depths of the Immortal Domain.
The Emperor Domain silently retracted, leaving only a thin protective shield, isolating the deadly Law repulsion, while allowing pure Immortal Qi to flow in, letting the concubines begin to slowly adapt.
He calmly controlled everything.
"Alright, stop staring blankly."
Li Xuan said without looking back.
"Welcome to the Immortal Domain, our new home."
His voice brought everyone back to their senses.
And his gaze, at this moment, froze.
At the end of his vision, in the depths where the immortal mist churned, a magnificent silhouette slowly emerged.
It was a huge, incomparable gateway.
It spanned between heaven and earth, as if connecting the entire heaven and earth.
As if it were the beginning and end of this Universe.
Ancient, vicissitudinous, majestic, sacred.
This aura surged forward, evoking awe in one's heart.
"Southern Heaven Gate."
Li Xuan read out these three words.
The coordinates on the System map perfectly coincided with this mythological gateway before him.
However, just as the corners of his mouth had just lifted, he suddenly frowned.
His long-perfected double pupils burst with divine light, seeing the true appearance of the giant gate clearly.
Majestic as ever.
Magnificent as ever.
But it was broken.
On the ancient lintel, a huge slash mark that almost split the entire gateway diagonally was branded there.
Black cracks spread from that slash mark to the surroundings.
Wisps of black gas filled with ominous and destructive aura were continuously escaping from the slash mark, polluting the surrounding Immortal Domain Laws.
The legendary, sacred, and inviolable face of the Heavenly Court, the Southern Heaven Gate.
Was actually broken.
