Chapter 905: Chapter 904: The Secrets of Higher Planes

Yusuf Zuck obtained three useful pieces of information from the Divine Calculation Master, Thornton. One was that a Dark Star was approaching, attempting to harm him.

And this Dark Star could be none other than his half-brother Tyler Nash, who undoubtedly had received great fortune, transformed into one of the three great demons, acted without restraint, destroyed stars and devastated lands, and had reached an uncontrollable and invincible extent.

The second piece of information was that the people in the Hidden Sword Immortal Mansion would soon emerge, likely within these three months, perhaps at the time of the heroes’ assembly.

Those who initially entered the Hidden Sword Immortal Mansion were either masters or Saints who brought with them Twelve Level Earth Immortals. The Azure Emperor was inside, along with a Demon Cultivator wielding his Horse-cutting Saber, as well as Sawyer Ford, the master of the Sword Tower, among others, all at the Saint Level.

Once these people re-enter the world, it will certainly be a calamity returning, and they might also cause him harm.

Although Thornton had not deduced the third danger, Yusuf Zuck’s judgment was that it was very likely that higher planes would intervene, just as in years past, after all, the people here had myriad connections with the higher planes, and his challenge against two major powers had probably been noticed by the higher planes.

Therefore, the higher planes would undoubtedly send someone to intervene in matters here, and the arrival from the higher planes would be the most dangerous.

He could sweep away Twelve Level Earth Immortals and even Saints could not pose much of a threat to him, but those coming from the higher planes would likely be even more powerful.

When he killed Westly Meskill, Meskill’s Saintly Power was indeed strong, nearly turning the tide against him. Since that Saintly Power was gifted by someone from the higher planes, how strong must the people from the higher planes be?

Yusuf Zuck knew that danger was quietly approaching and crisis would follow.

Of course, he would not allow any external force to stop him from reuniting with his family, therefore he had made his mental preparations, he did not fear death, for he had already died once.

Moreover, he still had three top-grade spirit jade pieces and could open three more Blood Beads. If the twenty-four Blood Beads were combined into a Soul Bead, then his Spiritual Power would increase twenty-seven-fold, so he feared no one.

"Young friend, would you be willing to be my protector and witness my Ascension in three days?" Thornton suddenly asked with a smile.

"No problem, I haven’t seen anyone else Ascend, but are you confident, senior?" Yusuf Zuck asked with some doubt.

"Ninety-nine percent sure," Thornton answered with a nod and a smile: "The reason I haven’t become an Earth Immortal all these years is precisely that I have been waiting for Ascension!"

"The higher planes are the true vast world, a grand stage; for others to settle for becoming Earth Immortals, to be honest, their horizons are too limited."

"Senior, could you please talk about the higher planes? I have some understanding of them, but it’s not comprehensive!" Yusuf Zuck said with a fist and palm salute.

"You’ve asked the right person, few here understand the matters of the higher planes. Some believe the higher planes are the Immortal Realm, but this is not the case!"

"What? Aren’t the higher planes the Immortal Realm?" Yusuf Zuck was greatly surprised. Everyone had always talked about the higher planes, and he too had always thought that the higher planes were the world of immortals, yet Thornton was saying they were not the Immortal Realm? Then what were they?

"Naturally not," Thornton shook his head and said: "The higher planes are merely the ’Element World’, which reigns above our mortal plane."

"In fact, our mortal plane, although called the Mortal World, is also called Element World, which divides into Lower, Middle, and Upper Element Realms. We mortals live in the Lower Element Realm, and after Ascension, we enter the Middle Element Realm. This Middle Element Realm rules over countless mortal worlds. The Middle Element World is unimaginably vast and boundless, with a mixture of various life forms, and the Middle Element World has a strict hierarchy. Cultivation within is even more brutal."

"Many call it the Rearing Realm, which means Ascenders from countless mortal planes, be they demons, humans, Alien Races, Buddha or devils, etc., all enter therein. Then, in this Rearing Realm, they kill each other to advance ranks. Only those who obtain the favor of Heaven and Earth or are elites from various races will eventually enter the Upper Element Realm."

"Only beyond the Upper Element Realm is the true World of Immortals and entering the World of Immortals isn’t done through Ascension, but rather by recognition from the World of Immortals itself!"

"Only when the World of Immortals recognizes you will you become a True Immortal and thereby enter the World of Immortals,"

"Of course, after you ascend to the Element World, you are considered a preparatory Immortal, also known as a pseudo-Immortal. For pseudo-Immortals to become True Immortals, one must either strive on their own or gain the recognition of the World of Immortals. If the World of Immortals doesn’t recognize you, even if you become the strongest in the Three Realms, you won’t be able to enter the Immortal Realm and become a True Immortal."

"It’s like being knighted, similar to how a royal court operates. You must get the official family’s recognition before they grant you an official position, allowing you to go to the World of Immortals to hold office and enjoy its privileges."

"Uhhhh...." Yusuf Zuck was continuously astonished; why did he find it a bit absurd? This reminded him of Journey to the West.

"What about above the World of Immortals? Is there more?" Yusuf Zuck pursued further.

"I’m not clear on that," Thornton the Seer shook his head and then laughed again, "The reason I haven’t transformed into an Earth Immortal is that I can ascend in my physical form. Thus, as a creature of flesh and blood in the Element World, my cultivation will advance more rapidly, whereas ascending as an Earth Immortal is an energy ascension, so once in the Element World, cultivation becomes slower."

"What about the levels? How are they divided inside?" Yusuf Zuck asked again.

"That’s not clear either; after all, I’ve never been there. It’s all hearsay," said Thornton the Seer, shaking his head.

"Hmm, one last question," Yusuf Zuck thought for a moment, "Why can beings from higher planes descend to the Lower Realm? How do they come down? And do we have any special channels to enter the Element World or something?"

"I’m not too clear on that either, but I do know that those who can descend are all outstanding figures from the Element World, the super experts of sorts. Of course, even if they come down, they may not wield their true strength. After all, different realms have different rules, and Heavenly Dao has its mechanisms. Otherwise, wouldn’t it be chaos?"

"Understood, thank you," Yusuf Zuck clasped his fists in gratitude.

"Alright, get some rest early. The day after tomorrow, early in the morning, we’ll go to my Cross the Tribulation site. With you there to protect me, external forces won’t be able to interfere, and I will be able to ascend smoothly," Thornton the Seer said with a hearty laugh.

"Hmm," Yusuf Zuck stood up, preparing to stay at the Thornton Family residence.

However, just then, he suddenly froze, and with a flip of his wrist, a Message Jade Disc appeared in his hand.

From the Jade Disc came a message from Jonah Burch, claiming Heidi Wilcox, that is, Ruth Wilcox, was injured and trapped in the Ice Mountain Immortal Mansion in the Northeast Arctic Sea, with someone hunting her, and notifying him to rescue her quickly!

"Hmm?" Yusuf Zuck’s eyebrows shot up. Was there news of Ruth Wilcox? The Northeast Arctic Sea? Someone was hunting her? And instructing him to rescue her?

"What’s happened?" asked the Thorntons, puzzled.

"Elder, where is the Northeast Arctic Sea?" Yusuf Zuck narrowed his eyes, quickly assessing the veracity of this message in his mind.

"The Northeast Arctic Sea is at least several billion miles from here; you’ll have to go through six transmissions, head east after reaching the Northeast coast, then fly almost a billion miles north to reach it. Why do you ask?"

"Nothing much, I need to make a trip there and will return by early morning the day after tomorrow," Yusuf Zuck knew that whether the message was true or not, he had to go. Because if it turned out to be true, then Ruth Wilcox was truly in danger.

Of course, it could also very well be false, perhaps a trap set by an unseen enemy to lure him there.

But he didn’t care, even if it was false, he still wanted to go and see for himself!
