Longevity Martial Arts: Starting from Inner Core Skill

Chapter 723: Chapter 18 Starry Sky Secret Realm_2

[Alas, what a pity…]

“Otherwise, should I resurrect them?”

Wang Sheng suddenly had an idea.

Even though a hundred years had passed, their strengths were not formidable. With the assistance of the Time Dice, it really wouldn’t cost him much.

[Resurrecting the Heavenly Sect Leader is feasible, but the old Scholar’s lifespan ended of his own accord. Resurrecting him might not be a good thing. Even if his lifespan is extended, he might face backlash.]

Qi also knew some information about Wang Sheng’s Time Retrospection.

“That’s true…”

He could resurrect those whose lifespans had ended, but the cost would also be much greater.

Moreover, it was very possible that the resurrected individuals would suffer the backlash of the river of time and space.

[Even if they are resurrected, they would still be too far behind… They missed several great opportunities; it’s very hard to catch up…]

Indeed, that was unavoidable.

“Let’s forget about it. First, let’s resurrect those with enough military merits, then we can consider it!”

Wang Sheng shook his head and stopped thinking about it.

Soon, he returned to the camp.

Huangtian was still waiting.

“Give me the portraits of the remaining eleven who need to be resurrected.”

The remaining eleven were all individuals who had earned substantial military merits but ultimately died in battle.

Huangtian took out the prepared portraits.

Wang Sheng glanced at them and did not hesitate to perform Time Retrospection right there in the camp.

These twelve individuals had all been to the camp before, and he couldn’t be bothered with that little bit of time.

The river of time appeared once again, and in an instant, Wang Sheng located the twelve individuals’ figures and pulled them all out.

“I thought I was dead…”

“What’s going on? Wasn’t I on the battlefield? How did I suddenly end up here?”

As they were puzzled, the correction of memory began.

Moreover, those who could accumulate enough military merits were essentially in the Sixth Realm.

They quickly understood their situation.

They were momentarily unable to react to their miraculous circumstances.

“The True Saint has resurrected me… Shoot, five years of effort gone.”

“It can’t all be for nothing, the experience gained from the ordeal is still there, maybe I can make even further progress!”

“The treasures are still here, that’s a silver lining!”

They adjusted quickly and soon all thanked Wang Sheng together.

Wang Sheng sent them off and then prepared to leave.

But he was stopped by Huangtian.

“Sir, we’ve collected some information that you might find interesting…”

Wang Sheng paused and raised an eyebrow.

There were not many things that could interest him.

“Oh, what exactly is it?”

“Most of it consists of scriptures from seven worlds, but what might be of some value is the Alchemy from the Cultivator World. Their Alchemy Dao is very peculiar, with a variety of effects, but most importantly, there’s a record we’ve already organized that you can look at yourself.”

“Alright!”

Wang Sheng accepted the materials and left.

However, he did not go straight back to the Qingshan Holy Land but made a detour to the Double-layered World.

He visited the site of past executions, now a revolutionary holy place and a location where the Lifeless Sect of the Double-layered World often offered incense——

The first Sect Hierarch of the Lifeless Sect of the Double-layered World, who was also a revolutionary forebear of the Double-layered World, the site of his sacrifice!

“It would also be something to resurrect you!”

This person was just an ordinary individual and could be resurrected easily.

What happened after the resurrection was not his concern to manage.

He left the members of the Lifeless Sect of this world to deal with it.

And he, returned to the Holy Land to review the information Huangtian had given him.

The very first thing was a secret, a scroll.

[Cultivator’s Chronicle 3567, the first Ancestor of the Star Fortune Sect in the Seventh Realm broke through the world, discovered that beyond it was not a higher world, but the silent Void. He began to explore, and after a hundred years, he traversed endless distances and discovered a new Secret Realm.]

[Cultivator’s Chronicle 3721, the Ancestor of the Star Fortune Sect returned, left information and led five Seventh Realm members of the Star Fortune Sect to the Secret Realm.]

[Cultivator’s Chronicle 4023, the Ancestor of the Star Fortune Sect returned with his followers. A new Seventh Realm emerged. Since then, every century, a Seventh Realm would lead a group into the Secret Realm, and among them, even Seventh Realm individuals fell, including the Ancestor of the Star Fortune Sect who was most likely to break through to a higher plane.]

…

[In the year 9562 of the Cultivators, information about the Secret Realm gradually improved, yet the danger within the Starry Sky Secret Realm did not diminish, and no one from the Eighth Realm had appeared. Every time the realm opened, numerous Sixth Realm Cultivators would go forth under the lead of those from the Seventh Realm to explore the secrets.]

The information about the Secret Realm followed in the dossier.

“A portion of the map… resource distribution… marked hazardous locations; it’s what the Cultivator World has probed over nearly ten thousand years, but—”

“Qi, are you aware of the Starry Sky Secret Realm?”

[Starry Sky Secret Realm? I’m not clear on that, but the surface meaning is quite obvious… Unfortunately, I don’t have information on this matter.]

“You know of the various Starry Sky Secret Treasures, you know the hidden mechanisms by which the world resists, yet you don’t know about this?”

[The vastness of the starry sky is boundless, almost without end; the secrets within are naturally numerous and complex. Furthermore, my current level of progression doesn’t even compare to the will of the Chaotic Realm; perhaps after my next evolution, I will know!]

“That makes sense…” Wang Sheng nodded, knowing Qi did not possess knowledge of everything.

For instance, several ways to make the world’s fate more stable.

“Your next stage of progression is about to start, isn’t it?”

[It’s coming soon. In two or three years’ time, once the Cultivator World is completely subdued, I can evolve once again.]

“All right, maybe after your next progression, you might know the answer.”

Other worlds had undergone subsidiary rituals after conquest, but those worlds were far inferior to Source Star and could not facilitate another advancement for Source Star. However, the accumulation from seven worlds was enough!

As Huangtian said, Wang Sheng was indeed very interested in the dossier obtained from the Cultivator World.

It was clearly a richly resourced Secret Realm, yet also dangerous; the Cultivator World lost many strong individuals in exploring it, but still, they pursued it relentlessly.

Even now, the Cultivator World only had five individuals from the Seventh Realm, largely due to the drag of the Starry Sky Secret Realm.

But the more so it was, the more mysterious the Starry Sky Secret Realm became.

“What exactly is attracting the powerful Cultivators of this world…”

Unfortunately, that part of the content wasn’t in the dossier.

“They have the map but not the core secrets, and despite the dangers, the Cultivator World doesn’t consider it a world but a Secret Realm; this secret must be no small matter.

This map might not even be complete; according to the dossier, the Starry Sky Secret Realm seems to open periodically.

The next opening should be in about twenty years. Let’s see if Qi will obtain any substantial information in its upcoming progression. Then, I might go and have a look at the Secret Realm.”

Without the crucial information, he naturally needed to be more cautious.

Who knew what dangers lay within the Secret Realm.

“In twenty years’ time, I should be able to significantly enhance myself again…”

The Secret Realm had not yet opened, and lacking detailed information, Wang Sheng could only let the matter rest.

Traveling to and from the Seventh Realm took nearly a hundred years, which to him wasn’t much at all, so there was no need to rush.

No matter what secrets it held, the stronger he was, the safer he would be.

Soon, he shifted his attention to other matters.

Besides the dossier, most of the other contents were about the Cultivator World’s methods of elixir refining.

He also knew how to do Alchemy, but due to his uniqueness, the elixirs he knew weren’t many.

The elixirs from the Cultivator World, however, broadened his horizons.

“It’s worth studying as a hobby!”

Time flowed by, and two years passed quickly, bringing about the new era 112, when Source Star progressed again.

Countless individuals benefited, with Zhu Xiao utilizing this occasion to climb directly to the pinnacle of the Seventh Realm.

Perhaps with the right opportunity, she could achieve the Eighth Realm.

Wang Sheng also took advantage of this opportunity to substantially increase his cultivation once more.

During these two years, he also spent some time studying Alchemy.

Originally, his level in refining was not low, having achieved Breakthrough four times.

In these two years, he researched and created various incredible elixirs, among the most powerful were the “Three-Turn Golden Pill” and the “Longevity Pill.”

The Three-Turn Golden Pill could transform a regular person directly into the Fourth Realm, though the materials for refining were extremely rare; the Longevity Pill, combined with the essence of longevity in its creation, could grant a life of twelve thousand years.

The Three-Turn Golden Pill is naturally a distant cry from the “Nine-Transformation Golden Pill,” and its effects differ greatly from the legends, yet it remains powerful.

It allows one to transcend and achieve the Fourth Realm in the Inner Core Skill.

The Longevity Pill enhances the effect of the longevity essence, directly extending the limit of ten thousand years by an additional two thousand years. Still, there are side effects; after using the Longevity Pill, one cannot cultivate anymore.

Twelve thousand years is the limit of lifespan.

Either of these two elixirs, if available, would cause a major commotion and be coveted by countless individuals.

But for Wang Sheng, this was merely a side hobby.

He might incorporate them into the merit system later on.

For him, the most crucial improvement was his Cultivation Technique.
