Chapter 517: Chapter 501 Nine Wheels Moon (1/3)

If Zhou Heng hadn’t just broken through, he would certainly have been able to suppress his own power and not be immediately expelled from the Mortal Realm, but where could he possibly go now?

"Go!"

Zhou Heng only had time to shout loudly, his Divine Sense spread out, and in an instant, he threw Ying Mengfan and the other girls, along with Black Donkey, into the Nine Mystic Trial Tower, then he scooped up Huo Tian. By the time he had done all this, the spatial rift had already opened its dark gaping maw and swallowed him whole.

Whoosh, Zhou Heng vanished from the Dragon River Continent.

What he left behind was only a legend.

"Let me go!" Huo Tian raged. They had entered the void, where sound could no longer travel, and only Divine Sense could be relied upon.

"Stop fussing!" Zhou Heng said, this was the void, and if he let go now, who knew how many years and months it would be before this Peerless Heavenly Maiden could get out.

This damned guy!

Huo Tian wasn’t unaware of the situation, but did you really need to hold her that tightly, and more importantly, where are your two paws placed? You could secure her just by spreading your Divine Intent, and yet you insisted on hugging her buttocks. Was that not blatantly taking advantage?

Damn it, if only her runes could be activated proactively, she would surely blast this audacious guy to death!

Chaos reigned in the void, and even Zhou Heng’s advancement to the Immortal Realm was of no consequence; he was utterly at the mercy of that invincible power, wildly tumbling along with it.

The only thing Zhou Heng could do now was to hold the woman in his arms tightly, not letting her suffer the slightest injury.

Whoosh!

The ordeal definitely didn’t last more than five minutes. Zhou Heng felt a sudden jolt in his body, brought to an abrupt halt from the high-speed collision, the backlash forced him to involuntarily spit out a mouthful of blood!

In such an abrupt stop, even Zhou Heng couldn’t protect Huo Tian, and the Peerless Heavenly Maiden’s body immediately burst forth with a pink halo of light, forming a beautiful and huge peach blossom.

Thump, a loud noise echoed as the void itself was blasted open by the peach blossom, and Zhou Heng and Huo Tian were violently flung out by the explosive force.

Boom—

Behind them, the terrifying energy continued to furiously surge from the fractured void, taking a long while before it slowly healed and finally vanished, as if nothing had happened.

How powerful!

Zhou Heng couldn’t help but be astonished; his Divine Body was incredibly durable, but even a sudden stop caused him to vomit blood and nearly break several bones!

This was the Immortal Realm, the standards of the Mortal Realm no longer applied!

In the Mortal Realm, he stood at the pinnacle of the world, but here, he was the most ordinary Immortal, having just entered the Moonlight Realm!

No, this wasn’t right at all!

The Old Swindler had said, forming one Bright Moon signifies the initial period of the First Layer Heaven of the Moonlight Realm, three Bright Moons for the middle period, five Bright Moons for the later period, and seven Bright Moons for the peak. But now he had formed nine Bright Moons; was this still considered the First Layer Heaven of the Moonlight Realm?

Shouldn’t he have long since advanced to the Second Layer Heaven of the Moonlight Realm?

But if he had reached the Second Layer Heaven, he should have two Bright Moons transforming from a Waning Moon to a Half Moon, not all nine remaining as Waning Moons!

What in the world was going on?

Zhou Heng sensed his own power and with a mere thought, nine Bright Moons surged forth with a terrifying Spiritual Power that seemed to easily crush a swath of stars in the sky.

This was not merely a feeling, but an absolute reality.

Far too powerful!

Zhou Heng knew the disparity between mortals and immortals was vast, but after reaching the Two Tribulations Quasi-Immortal stage, he estimated that the difference wouldn’t be too great.

However, it was only after he himself had advanced to this realm that he truly understood the real gap between them.

A chasm as wide as the heavens and earth!

—If he had ventured into the Immortal Realm at the time of being a Two Tribulations Quasi-Immortal, the Moonlight King would find it as easy as flipping his hand to kill him.

Wait, the previous issue hasn’t been resolved yet!

One should eat one bite at a time, and walk step by step. Advancing from Three Tribulations Quasi-Immortal to the First Layer Heaven of the Moonlight Realm naturally involves forming one Bright Moon, signifying the initial period of the First Layer Heaven. But how did he end up with nine Bright Moons?

This was far too outrageous, wasn’t it?

"Are you planning to just stand here in a daze forever?" Huo Tian suddenly said, breaking into Zhou Heng’s contemplation.

Zhou Heng instantly came back to his senses, he had already arrived at the Immortal Realm!

He looked around and saw that he was in a vast expanse of darkness that was the universe, no light was visible from any direction, up, down, left, right, southeast or northwest, even his eyesight that could penetrate tens of thousands of miles only saw infinite darkness.

The Mortal Realm’s universe was also cold and desolate, but it was not dark to this degree, one could still see the light from the sun, guiding the way forward.

This place, however, was truly dead silent!

Deng Bufe had said that the great war in the Immortal Realm in ancient times had obliterated the Immortal Realm, and only later did a Big Shot manage to establish forty-nine layered Immortal Cities using heaven-defying methods!

A vast Immortal Realm, reduced to just forty-nine Immortal Cities—in comparison, even if each Immortal City was as large as a planet, at most it would amount to forty-nine living stars, which were negligible compared to the vast universe.

The question now was, which way should he go?

"That direction—" Huo Tian pointed with her delicate hand towards a direction.

Zhou Heng was like a headless fly now. Since Huo Tian had provided a direction, he might as well follow it, especially since he had no constructive suggestions of his own.

He scooped up Huo Tian and darted forward, flying towards the direction she had indicated.

Swift Cloud Radiant Step unfolded, and he was like a streak of light!

Fast, truly fast, exhilaratingly so!

This was, after all, an Immortal Technique. In the Mortal Realm, no matter how advanced Zhou Heng’s realm was, he could never meet the true requirements for its use—until now.

He was finally able to unleash the power of this Immortal Technique!

Quick Light Skimming Fire!

His passion flared, and he suddenly let out a long howl. The sound, amplified by Spiritual Power, propagated grandly through the void of the universe. As it passed, the floating meteors around him burst into fragments.

His speed now was at least a thousand times what it had been before!

Zhou Heng laughed heartily; as he sped like lightning, his high spirits also peaked.

"Huo Tian, why did I form nine moonlights as soon as I entered the Immortal Realm?" he asked, puzzled. Although Huo Tian had not fully awakened, a flash of Spiritual Light would suffice.

"You formed nine moonlights?" Huo Tian showed a trace of surprise, "Show me!"

But could that be made to appear? Weren’t the moonlights in the Dantian World?

Seeing the confusion on Zhou Heng’s face, Huo Tian immediately said, "You just need to channel your power with all your might!"

Following her instructions, boom, nine Waning Moons appeared behind Zhou Heng, their cold light instantly banishing the darkness of the universe as if there were truly nine Bright Moons shining, illuminating for billions of miles.

"Nine Wheels Moon!" Huo Tian murmured to herself.

"Hey, what’s exactly going on?" Zhou Heng asked. He did not want to be kept in the dark like an idiot.

Huo Tian looked somewhat lost, but then, as if struck by a moment’s inspiration, said, "Upon entering the Moonlight Realm, most people can only form a single Waning Moon, and even then, it’s just a crescent Waning Moon."

Most people? So there were exceptions, and he was one of them!

Zhou Heng didn’t interrupt Huo Tian, just fixated on her lips, red as rose petals, suppressing the urge to lean in and kiss her.

"From Gathering Spirit to Divinity Transformation is like laying a foundation; the firmer the foundation, the greater the leap one can make upon entering the Moonlight Realm. Some can form a complete Waning Moon, while others can even form two or three!"

"Forming seven Waning Moons allows one to break through to the Second Layer Heaven of Moonlight Realm. That is just the lowest standard; the real experts all wait to accumulate at least ten moonlights before breaking through!"

"Again, the more solid your foundation, the greater your achievements will be!"

Zhou Heng unconsciously scratched his head and said, "So, with my nine moonlights, what realm does that put me in?"

"Nonsense, you’ve formed Waning Moons, so you are naturally within the Initial Period of First Layer Heaven!" Huo Tian immediately looked down on Zhou Heng.

Zhou Heng was close to collapsing. After all this time, he was still a Moonlight King. What was the point of having nine moonlights?

"However, your battle power... is comparable to someone in the Bright Moon Second Layer Heaven!" Huo Tian added, pulling Zhou Heng back from the brink of despair.

"Comparable?"

"Of course! Why else would others suppress their realm rather than breaking through, striving instead to increase the number of moonlights?" Huo Tian looked at Zhou Heng with disdain, as if to say how ignorant he was.

"So right now... am I equivalent to a little less than midway into the Moonlight Second Layer Heaven?"

"Probably just the Initial Period. Waning Moons are no match for a Half Moon, but by uniting two and two, or three and three, they could just barely compare to one Half Moon."

Zhou Heng was overjoyed. No wonder he had nearly been drained dry previously. It turned out his starting point was too high, leaping straight from Three Tribulations Quasi-Immortal to the stature of the Moonlight Second Layer Heaven!

The more profound his foundation, the more tremendous his momentum as he soared to the sky!

He possessed a Dantian Space a ten thousand times bigger than that of an ordinary Divinity Transformation Realm cultivator, and now his accumulation was paying off handsomely!

With a smile on his face, Zhou Heng said, "Doesn’t that mean I’m pretty awesome?"

Huo Tian hated to see that smug look on his face, but she couldn’t deny the truth either, "You could say so!"

Zhou Heng clenched his fist tightly, filled with joy. Entering the Immortal Realm and immediately possessing the battle power of a Moonlight Sovereign would certainly make his journey much easier.

Moreover, the Nine Wheels Moon was just his starting point!

After the initial excitement, Zhou Heng calmed down. No matter how talented he was, he was still only a Moonlight King and, possessing the battle power of a Moonlight Sovereign, he was at the absolute bottom echelon of the entire immortal hierarchy.

He held Huo Tian in his arms and flew swiftly through the void of space until, three days later, a massive piece of land suddenly appeared in front of them!

This was not an Immortal City, but... a desolate fragment of a continent that had already withered!

Just like that piece of the Fairy Continent that had crashed into Xuanqian Star in the past, only this fragment had not been thrust into the void, so it continued to wander around the starry skies of the Immortal Realm.

Hum!

The Black Sword suddenly stirred. This fellow hadn’t shown any reaction when Zhou Heng became an Immortal, but now it was floating out of his Dantian Space on its own, the Broken Blade quivering as it pointed towards a certain corner of the continent.

There was treasure to be found!

It had been years since Master Jian had shown any response. For it to take the initiative to come forth, the treasure must be extremely precious!(To be continued.
