Peak Cultivator's Slice of Life-Chapter 26: A Discovery

Hearing that she had to advance her Space Dao all the way to the top, Yi Mingxue instantly looked .

This was extremely difficult for her.

Of course, she wanted to achieve that because she hoped she could save those closest to her. Perhaps her disciples weren’t that important, but she had a kingdom whose members were mostly her family who had always been her supporters since she was young.

She was happy that they would still be alive when she returned to this Great Universe so she had made a lot of efforts to improve their cultivation for them to reach a level where they could continue living as long as they weren’t killed. 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂

And she succeeded, but the great apocalypse was her biggest obstacle.

Asking her teacher for help?

She didn’t dare because he had already helped her too much.

Asher just smiled at her reaction without saying anything.

Of course, he didn’t mind helping his disciples save their families or disciples, but he wouldn’t do it until the last moment. This was to keep them motivated to train.

"Over here!" Yi Mingxue stopped not long after.

They stopped between four universes where right in the center of them was an enormous ball of energy, exactly the same as Yi Mingxue’s aura.

It was probably something she had left behind to cover something up.

When she waved her hand, the ball of energy instantly disappeared, revealed a small dimensional rift that is only about twice the size of a human.

Seeing that, Asher narrowed his eyes very sharply.

"How did you find it?" Asher asked.

"Those who discovered it in the past and entered it are dead. Fortunately, one of my sect disciples did not act carelessly. Instead of entering it, he told me to personally investigate it," Yi Mingxue replied.

Asher nodded at her answer, stepping closer while signaling Yi Mingxue not to follow anymore.

The closer he got to the rift, the sharper his eyes narrowed.

The Void Masters would definitely be surprised to see such a reaction from a Dao Progenitor who was basically unrivaled in the Infinite Void so there should be nothing that could disturb him other than the cooperation of the Monster Progenitors.

Standing in front of the rift, Asher split his avatar into two again. One remained outside while the other stepped into the rift.

A look of surprise immediately appeared on his face when he discovered that his power was no longer suppressed by the Great Universe when he entered into the dimensional rift.

This meant that the inside of the dimensional rift was a space completely separate from the Great Universe.

Passing through the rift, he discovered a vast and long spatial passage, churning endlessly.

A mysterious aura was palpable from the passage, something that greatly surprised him.

He could not see the end with just his weak avatar because it was too long.

ROAR!

A terrifying roar suddenly echoed from the depths of the passage.

It produced a shockwave that was invisible and unfelt but when it touched it, a Great Paragon could instantly explode.

As for Asher’s weak avatar, he was instantly filled with wounds and his soul was also violently shaken. It reached the souls of his other avatars except for his main avatar who was not affected at all because the difference in the soul power of his main avatar and his other avatars was like the difference between the sky and the dust.

Clearly, he managed to survive.

He easily recovered his injuries with his level of understanding.

’So far away,’ he thought. ’However, without a doubt this is the power of a Progenitor even if it’s only on par with Bloodline Progenitors and Monster Progenitors. It’s just that, I feel the aura is completely different. It’s definitely not from bloodline cultivation or dao cultivation.’

His eyes flickered a few times as he thought about that which made him think of something.

ROAR!

The roar resounded again, producing the same effect of his head without being able to break it.

Of course, that was because the distance was too great. Otherwise, his weak avatar could easily be destroyed. Perhaps it would also destroy all his other weak avatars that did not have soul protection.

"Boy, you have power, but if you get any closer, you’ll die..." A hoarse voice echoed from a distance, threatening Asher but also telling him that it was from an intelligent being that was either monster or human.

The creature didn’t seem to realize how powerful he was, thinking he was the only or rather the original body.

"I’m afraid you don’t have that power," Asher said in response.

"I’m just curious, what’s on the other side?" he added.

"Hmph, this is not a place where you can come with your weak powers..." The creature replied with mockery.

"I’m sure you’d be terrified if you knew how strong I am," Asher replied casually.

"Hahahaha..." His words actually made the creature burst out laughing.

"You? Just a little weakling, who do you think I am? I may not be the strongest, but no one is capable enough to scare me except the Holy Emperor."

"Ohhh, so there’s also something that scares you? How strong is the Holy Emperor, is he stronger than a Progenitor Dao?" Asher’s eyes lit up as this conversation was very interesting to him.

Being a peak cultivator, he was extremely thirsty for a stronger existence.

"Progenitor Dao? What is a Dao Progenitor... Hmph, the Holy Emperor is too powerful, don’t compare him to anyone. And I can also trample over anyone." The being replied.

In the Infinite Void, there was no one who didn’t know the Dao Progenitors, but this one apparently didn’t know.

Asher couldn’t help but smile.

’As I suspected, another civilization, and that with living beings,’ he thought with shining eyes.

To the beings in the Infinite Void, although there were many hostile parties with different cultivation paths, they were all still one civilization.

Even the Monster Progenitors did not dispute that.

However, were there other civilizations?

This was something that was often debated.

If it was a world other than the Infinite Void, it really existed, like the Foreign Ice World that the Eternal Ice Queen wanted to enter.

It was a vast world with laws just as powerful as the Infinite Void.

There were three other worlds of the same type.

Only, they could be confirmed to be without inhabitants.

Either those worlds had yet to give birth to inhabitants or their inhabitants had perished. People often debate it but no one is sure of their opinion.

The Infinite Void was the only world with inhabitants, even countless inhabitants, that created a civilization with unimaginable prosperity.

This time, Asher was convinced that the passage in front of him would send him to another world with civilization.

Only, this passage turned out to be guarded.

He was very vigilant, not daring to be hasty because bad things could always happen in a different world. That was why other worlds with no inhabitants were still considered dangerous even though overall there was nothing threatening to the Dao Progenitors.

They were still cautious of the worst, so they could not leave without full vigilance.

This was because those worlds themselves could be a threat.

"Why didn’t you come here yourself? Are you afraid?" Asher asked.

This passage obviously appeared naturally and it seemed that it was discovered early by the people on the other side.

However, they did not invade. Asher wasn’t sure why.

"Hmph!" The creature only snorted in response, not answering at all.

’Unless there’s something in the way?’ He suspected as much because according to history, there was always a barrier between the passages at the beginning of their appearance. It was sometimes closer to one of the worlds than the other and it took a long time before the barrier was destroyed.

He suspected that the other party was trying to destroy the barrier.

Of course, the creature guarding it wouldn’t let him get close for fear that he would peek.

The barrier shouldn’t have restricted vision completely because the creature could see his figure, even sending his power though it was limited.

’Yeah, I can still peek and even approach secretly if I use my main avatar,’ he thought.

’However, I need to move that rift to another place first. It can’t be allowed to continue to exist in this Great Universe. For the time being, it’s better to make that thing continue to think I’m just a weak existence so that it won’t be alarmed.’ He began to formulate a plan.

The main plan was to keep his discovery a secret before he actually encountered any difficult problems.

After all, this was also a great opportunity since there were living creatures in that world.

He was sure he would gain a huge advantage. If others knew, he would practically have to share that delicious cake with them.

Only if he couldn’t swallow it himself would he share it with others.

Selfish?

Most peak cultivators naturally had their own selfish side.

As a Dao Progenitor, he still had confidence even if he had to play around with a civilization from a completely different world.

This was because it was guaranteed that no matter where it was, a Dao Progenitor who understood the essence of cultivation was the strongest among all Progenitors.

Understanding the essence of cultivation, it guaranteed superiority over all talents.

After that, he returned to the rift behind him, appearing again in front of Yi Mingxue who was filled with curiosity but knew that this was beyond her level to get involved.

Asher didn’t say anything to her either.

He enveloped the rift with his power.

On the outside, it was just an ordinary dimensional rift, very easy to pull anywhere.

He then pulled the rift into the void beyond the Great Universe.

His one avatar was still with Yi Mingxue. He looked at his disciple with a satisfied expression as she had made him discover a big interesting thing for someone at his level.

"I will give you a big gift. Even this is too precious and will definitely increase your Dao comprehension significantly," he told her.
