Chapter 922: Chapter 295: “Your Housekeeper Seems to Have Gone Into Hibernation…

His current strength is not considered invincible on this continent.

If some Mahayana realm experts came to challenge him, they might not be able to do anything to him. After all, even the strongest attack method of the Mahayana realm is the Unification Killing Move, and anyone who uses the Unification Killing Move in front of Chen Qiu would have to kneel obediently.

That’s not even on the same level.

However, if someone stronger than a Mahayana realm expert, like a Transcendance Tribulation Stage expert, came to trouble him, that would be quite tricky.

Although he has many solutions, such as calling Ba Dan for help. Ba Dan’s cultivation is something he hasn’t inquired about in detail, but is undoubtedly a true Immortal. Bullying a Transcendance Tribulation Stage expert would be as easy as pie, without any pressure.

But… it is unnecessary.

He can’t always rely on the strength of others; his own strength is the true strength. The best approach is naturally to avoid provocation first, and then wait until he has consumed all these Spirit Stones. By then, the people here naturally wouldn’t dare to act against him at all.

…

Late at night.

By the campfire, Chen Qiu, lying in a rocking chair, rested his head on his hands and gazed at the countless stars above, chuckling softly.

“Soon, I can start a closed-door cultivation.”

“The Immortal Realm…”

“I, Chen Qiu, am coming soon!”

He still yearns for the Immortal Realm, and having these Spirit Stones as a foundation will significantly shorten the time needed to reach the Immortal Realm. After returning from the Heavenly Dao Secret Realm of the Third Grade Continent in a few days, he can start closed-door cultivation.

Pure closed-door cultivation.

Even if the sky outside were to fall, it wouldn’t stop him from cultivating in seclusion. Once he has consumed all these Spirit Stones, his cultivation should be able to soar straight to the peak of the Transcendance Tribulation Stage!

At this time, the Chao Tian Sect appeared somewhat desolate. By the campfire, only Chen Qiu, Fat Long, and Xiong Gao were present. The remaining maids and others were nearby handling desserts, and as for the shopkeeper and Xing Dou, they had already started decoding restrictions in the small world.

Originally, Chen Qiu planned to have a celebration party with the shopkeeper.

However, since making a promise to the shopkeeper that once all these cities were cleared, he would never have to break restrictions again and could retire and focus on training disciples, the shopkeeper was so excited that he didn’t even attend the bonfire party. He immediately rushed into the small world, working energetically.

The dragon-slaying boy eventually becomes a dragon, perhaps so it is.

The reason the shopkeeper was wholeheartedly following Chen Qiu was because Chen Qiu had promised that he would always have restrictions to break. The shopkeeper, who was passionate about breaking restrictions, was instantly attracted to this condition and joined the Chao Tian Sect.

And Chen Qiu indeed fulfilled this promise.

But it seems the shopkeeper… no longer has the same passion he had back then.

Indeed… people do change.

“The Immortal Realm?”

Fat Long, lying in a rocking chair, shook the wine glass in his hand, his expression dazed. “I wonder what the Immortal Realm looks like, but looking at Ba Dan, it feels like the Immortal Realm might not be anything special.”

“I even suspect that there might be spicy soup in the Immortal Realm.”

“Most likely there is.”

Chen Qiu casually replied: “After all, the Immortal Realm isn’t entirely populated by Immortals; there are still mortals there, and those mortals have to live.”

“Truly blessed…”

Fat Long said enviously, “We have to work so hard to go to the Immortal Realm, while some are born into it, truly lucky in life.”

“Not necessarily.”

Xiong Gao, sitting beside them, cautiously interjected: “Great Elder, I actually think that being born in the Immortal Realm might not be a good thing for mortals.”

“What’s not good about it?” Fat Long glanced at Xiong Gao dismissively. “It’s the Immortal Realm, a place so many people yearn for. What’s not good about being born there?”

“It feels like the path of advancement would be even more blocked.”

Xiong Gao organized his thoughts before continuing: “I think about it like this: on the Xuantian Continent, the highest cultivation is Divinity Transformation, right? This means that if you provoke enemies, they’re most likely just Golden Core or Foundation Establishment.”

“You can’t even touch Nascent Soul, because they’re rare. In this case, the chances of getting casually killed are much smaller. Even if you provoke enemies, most likely they are Foundation Establishment. With effort in cultivation or some serendipity, you can completely deal with enemies and achieve major cultivation breakthroughs.”

“However, in the Immortal Realm, the cultivation limit is far beyond Divinity Transformation, at least to Heavenly Immortal, right?”

“In this scenario, as a Foundation Establishment Cultivator, you wouldn’t only face Golden Core or Foundation Establishment anymore; it could be that Divinity Transformation walks everywhere, and Nascent Soul is the minimum.”

“In such an environment, the path of advancement seems nearly blocked.”

“Because it’s hard to compete against these people. A casually provoked enemy might have cultivation far beyond yours, leaving you no chance to go back and cultivate. Just a glance and your Divine Soul might be extinguished.”

“A First Grade Continent may not have many opportunities, and Spiritual Energy may not be as rich, but it has a combat power limit, ensuring that the enemies you provoke are generally of the same level, giving you the chance to climb upward.”

“But in the Immortal Realm, that possibility seems much smaller…”

“Hmm…”

Fat Long furrowed his brows and pondered for a long time before nodding: “Your argument isn’t without reason, but the Immortal Realm, no matter what, surely has more opportunities than a First Grade Continent.”

“That’s for sure.”

Xiong Gao seriously said: “But no matter how many opportunities exist, if they don’t fall into your hands, they have nothing to do with you. In that kind of environment, competition at the lower levels must be more intense, because there aren’t many opportunities falling to them.”
