Chapter 196: Chapter 136: Extraordinary Starry Sky, a Vast and Boundless New World

Most members of the Noble Families knew that a peerless genius had emerged from Huaxia.

He wasn’t a disciple of the Twelve Clans, and his lineage had never even produced a Tier Six Life, yet he had still defeated a host of prodigies to become the final choice for the God Creation Plan.

For a time, many members of the Noble Families came to see Wang Xiao as their idol.

This also allowed Wang Xiao’s World Martial Arts Hall to blossom everywhere, encountering almost no resistance whatsoever.

’Spreading martial arts across the world is a good thing, but I can’t let the Martial Arts Halls affect my regular Cultivation.’

Wang Xiao shook his head slightly.

For the past half-month, he hadn’t gone to the Incense Realm to cultivate, remaining in the Real World instead.

For one, he was waiting for the Chaos Nether King.

For another, his Inner World and Great Daoist Nascent Soul were both extremely stable. All that remained was to comprehend the Great Dao Rules and condense his Dao Fruit.

Besides, the two worlds seemed to operate differently.

If Wang Xiao wanted to refine Earth, it was better for him to comprehend the Great Dao Rules on Earth itself.

Moreover, comprehending the Great Dao Rules had little to do with the amount of time spent.

Some could achieve enlightenment in a single moment of insight, while others could seek it for a lifetime and never find it. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

Therefore, Wang Xiao wasn’t about to go to the Incense Realm just to save a little time. The potential loss wasn’t worth the gain.

’I’ll wait another half-month. If the Chaos Nether King doesn’t show up by then, I’ll just head to the next world.’

Wang Xiao made his decision.

He wasn’t particularly worried that his Book of Space-Time would be exposed.

He was just afraid that too much time would pass in the Real World while he was away.

If the Chaos Nether King were to forcibly wake him, he didn’t know if his transmigration would be cut short.

After all, Wang Xiao had never experienced something like that, and he had no desire to.

So, the best solution was to wait for the Chaos Nether King to come to him.

Just as Wang Xiao was lost in thought, his gaze suddenly shifted, and he looked sharply toward a corner of the Martial Arts Hall.

The next moment, a soft chuckle echoed out.

"Heh. Your reflexes are quite sharp. It seems your Cultivation has progressed recently."

The instant the voice faded, the void trembled. A bronze portal materialized, a vortex of Chaos swirling on its surface.

A figure stepped out from it, walking at a leisurely pace.

The figure was tall and dressed in a black robe. His entire form seemed to be shrouded in a hazy Chaos, making him difficult to perceive clearly.

However, as he drew closer to Wang Xiao, the Chaos surrounding him gradually dissipated, and his form became clear.

"Elder Gu."

Wang Xiao looked at the figure before him and greeted him.

It was the first time Wang Xiao had gotten a clear look at the Chaos Nether King. He had a square-shaped face and thick eyebrows, appearing quite ordinary.

However, his eyes had no whites. They were nothing but a roiling expanse of Chaos.

Gazing into them for too long, one could feel themselves being pulled in, unable to break free.

Gu Tiandu spoke. "Mm. My true self was delayed, and I was worried you would grow impatient waiting, so I sent this avatar."

’So this is an avatar of the Chaos Nether King...’ Wang Xiao thought, sizing up the figure before him with curiosity.

He couldn’t detect anything amiss at all!

Seeing Wang Xiao’s curious expression, Gu Tiandu chuckled. "You’ll understand when your Cultivation reaches Tier Eight Life. It’s one of their abilities, called Blood Rebirth. Just a single drop of blood can become a perfect avatar, almost indistinguishable from the original. That’s why Tier Eight Life forms are considered virtually immortal."

He casually revealed one of the miraculous abilities of a High Tier Life.

"I see. It seems the higher one’s Life Evolution progresses, the more miraculous their abilities become!" Wang Xiao nodded slightly.

Take himself, for example. He could grow larger or smaller, freely controlling the transformations of his physical body.

But achieving Blood Rebirth was still far beyond his capabilities.

The human body is simply too complex.

At his current Realm, he could only perceive down to the cellular level, allowing him to slightly alter the arrangement of his cells to change his size.

Anything deeper—cytoplasm, genes, and even smaller particles—was still beyond his full comprehension.

Therefore, it was naturally impossible for him to use more miraculous abilities.

Gu Tiandu continued, "That’s right. As your Life Tier rises, you’ll feel more and more just how miraculous our bodies are. Alas, it’s a pity. In the early days, in our pursuit of evolutionary speed, we gave up too much, leaving us with unstable foundations. After reaching Tier Nine Life, we encountered an insurmountable chasm, making it almost impossible to advance another inch."

He paused, then continued, "Of course, this is also a trait of our Extraordinary Starry Sky. Resources are exceptionally abundant, but complete evolutionary Techniques are scarce. This isn’t unique to our planet; it’s the same on other worlds."

Wang Xiao knew that Gu Tiandu was subtly introducing him to the mysteries of the Cosmos, so he couldn’t help but ask:

"Elder Gu, what exactly do you mean by the ’Extraordinary Starry Sky’? And, have you encountered extraterrestrial life before?"

Gu Tiandu nodded slightly:

"To answer your first question, you can picture the Cosmos as a vast ocean, and within it are countless islands. Each island is a ’Starry Sky.’ Beneath a Starry Sky are Star Domains, beneath those are Star Systems, and finally, there are planets like ours."

"An Extraordinary Starry Sky, then, is a Starry Sky that has been irradiated by a fallen Meteor."

"This Meteor came from the Unobservable Cosmos, streaking across one Starry Sky after another. Any Starry Sky bathed in its light gains extraordinary properties, giving rise to all kinds of unique life forms. Our Earth happens to be within one such region, and it is the most special of all."

"Because that Meteor fell here, on Earth. That makes our planet the very core of this Extraordinary Starry Sky!"
