Shocking the Nine Heavens With My Sword
Chapter 521 - 502

Chapter 521: 502

Zhou Heng’s figure flashed, and he landed on that continent, the immense gravity attacking him nearly caused him to stumble.

The gravity of that piece of the Fairy Continent that had crashed into Xuanqian Star was about thirty times that of Xuanqian Star, but here... it had reached a hundred times!

Under such terrifying gravity, Zhou Heng believed that even a Half-Step Immortal would have a hard time flying, only able to leap and glide a distance. And this wasn’t even a real planet, just a piece of shattered land.

In ancient times when the Immortal Realm had countless Immortal Stars, what would the gravity have been like on those?

Probably only Immortals themselves had the privilege of flight, and not even Quasi-Immortals could manage it!

There was Spiritual Energy here, and quite abundant at that, surpassing the piece of the Fairy Continent that had merged with Xuanqian Star in the past.

Bear in mind that only planets can generate Spiritual Energy, while a mere continent like this would only continuously lose Spiritual Energy! Moreover, considering the time, a million years had passed since the great battle of the Immortal Realm, yet the Spiritual Energy on this continent remained so rich. Thinking inversely, how dense must the Spiritual Energy be on a true Immortal Realm planet?

Zhou Heng summoned the Moon Shadow Saintess from the Nine Mystic Trial Tower.

At that time, he didn’t know what had gotten into him, actually including this woman in the Nine Mystic Trial Tower. Now that they had reached the Immortal Realm, even if he wanted to send her away, there was no path to do so.

"This place... is it the Immortal Realm?" The Moon Shadow Saintess breathed in the rich Spiritual Energy around her, her face showing an indescribable pleasure.

Her look was enchanting!

Zhou Heng’s heart swayed, and he quickly shivered to wake himself from his stupor.

Why did he only summon the Moon Shadow Saintess? Naturally, there was a reason: the gravity here was too terrifying. And this continent could only be seen as a meteorite floating in the universe, albeit a large one, where air no longer existed.

Only a Heavenly Venerate could breathe for a long time without air, while Immortals... were completely different from Mortals, only needing to absorb Spiritual Energy.

The Moon Shadow Saintess tried to take flight to look out over the continent, but as she just bounced up, the terrifying gravity hit her, and she immediately swayed and fell towards Zhou Heng.

He couldn’t just stand by and watch her fall, could he?

Zhou Heng extended a hand and pulled the Moon Shadow Saintess into his arms.

Soft as jade, fragrance overwhelming!

Zhou Heng’s heart swayed again, and the Moon Shadow Saintess within his arms also blushed, unable to help but push against his chest with her hands, getting out of his embrace.

"Cough! Cough!" Zhou Heng coughed a few times, to dissolve the awkwardness between them, and said, "Saintess, this really is the Immortal Realm, but this is just a piece of a shattered continent, we still haven’t reached an Immortal City!"

The Spiritual Energy here was indeed rich, but that was only relative to the Mortal Realm. For the present Realm of the Moon Shadow Saintess, it was sufficient, but for Zhou Heng it was far from enough!

Moreover, his path wasn’t one to be climbed by sitting and meditating, but through constant battle and killing.

He couldn’t possibly settle down here and build a cabin; that would be too devoid of ambition.

"The Spiritual Energy is so rich here, even though it’s just a broken piece of the continent?" The Moon Shadow Saintess showed a look of shock, as the Immortal Realm truly was the Immortal Realm, absolutely incomparable to the Mortal Realm!

"Let’s go, we should head to a place first!" Zhou Heng carelessly let go, and Huo Tian broke free, but he saw that the Peerless Heavenly Maiden was not affected by the gravity here, floating lightly in the air, even more relaxed than Zhou Heng.

It was utterly unreasonable, was this still the Divine Infant Realm?

Instead, the Moon Shadow Saintess had become a burden, unable to run fast, and since Zhou Heng had just summoned her, it wouldn’t be proper to send her back right away. He had no choice but to take her hand and lead her along, racing across the sky.

The continent was vast, incredibly vast, but fortunately, Zhou Heng could now fully activate the Swift Cloud Radiant Steps without any restriction on time. Nine Waning Moons spun at once, Spiritual Power rushing like the sea, infinite and unceasing.

But the gravity, after all, was not for nothing; it greatly limited Zhou Heng’s speed, incomparable to his flight in the void.

Huo Tian’s movement technique was peculiar beyond compare; she didn’t use any of her own strength, just floated by the gusts of wind Zhou Heng created, keeping pace with Zhou Heng without falling behind in the slightest.

In terms of conserving energy, her movement technique crushed the Swift Cloud Radiant Steps by hundreds of times!

A short half day later, Zhou Heng suddenly became alert, stopping abruptly as he saw something resembling a black dragon whirling from far in the northwest, reaching from earth to sky, incredibly terrifying!

It was a sandstorm!

However, compared to the sandstorms Zhou Heng had seen on Xuanqian Star and Dragon River Star, this one was several folds more ferocious!

"Find somewhere to take cover quickly!" Huo Tian stepped forward, her phoenix eyes scanning the surroundings, then turned to Zhou Heng and said, "This is a Stardust Storm; with your current Cultivation Levels, you’d be torn to shreds in an instant!"

Zhou Heng couldn’t help but click his tongue. Although he had just entered the Moonlight Realm, he already possessed the Battle Power of a Moonlight Sovereign, yet he’d still be reduced to bones in such a storm!

The Immortal Realm indeed was profoundly deep!

Zhou Heng did not dare to delay, this was no time for showing off, he quickly bent his form and ran in the opposite direction of the Stardust Storm, while releasing his Divine Sense to search for a temporary place of refuge.

As soon as he released his Divine Sense, he found that his perception range was greatly limited by the immense gravity of this place, only able to extend to a hundred miles at most. However, although the range had decreased, the level of detail was greatly enhanced, as if he could see everything vividly, every detail incredibly lively.

This sensation was marvelous!

However, he only had to look back to break out in a cold sweat because the Stardust Storm had closed in dozens of miles in an instant!

Such incredible speed!

Zhou Heng’s tears were streaming as he ran, back in the Mortal Realm whenever he used Swift Cloud Radiant Step, although it only lasted a short duration, within that period almost no one could match his speed. But just after arriving in the Immortal Realm, he was given a rude awakening, faced with the terrifying Stardust Storm!

He ran frantically; this was not the time for regrets.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The Stardust Storm raged towards him, sweeping rocks into the sky before they plummeted back to the ground like projectiles hurled from trebuchets, their power shocking!

This was the Immortal Realm, after all, where every attack was magnified tens of thousands of times!

Zhou Heng saw for himself the devastating impact as boulders smashed into the earth, a force that could shatter his divine body to dust!

Faced with the might of this heavenly power, his only choice was to flee.

He had to get used to it, whether he liked it or not. This was no longer the Mortal Realm, but a world on a whole new level!

The Stardust Storm drew closer and closer, only ten miles away from Zhou Heng, and it would take merely minutes to engulf him.

Zhou Heng held the Moon Shadow Saintess with his left hand, and Huo Tian with his right, pushing his speed to the limit.

Behind him, the Stardust Storm was closing in relentlessly.

Nine miles, eight miles, seven miles... three miles, two miles, one mile!

"Up ahead!" Zhou Heng’s eyes suddenly lit up as he spotted a huge cave, swiftly veering towards the entrance.

Two hundred zhang! One hundred zhang! Fifty zhang!

Zhou Heng could feel a faint force of suction coming from behind. With a long howl, the nine Waning Moons erupted all at once, whoosh, he further accelerated, his speed shooting up as he zipped into the cave.

The savage Stardust Storm struck, an irresistible force roared in, and Zhou Heng’s body suddenly felt heavy as he slammed into the cave wall!

Boom!

Half his body was forcibly embedded into the rock, pain causing Zhou Heng to grit his teeth and grimace.

Outside, the fierce wind howled, the immense noise rendered Zhou Heng and the Moon Shadow Saintess deaf to anything else but the thunderous roar in their ears.

Zhou Heng slowly extricated himself. Fortunately, no bones were broken.

He turned to look at Huo Tian and the Moon Shadow Saintess. The two women were unharmed, protected by him. In reality, there was no need to worry about Huo Tian, who, when truly threatened, would unleash a terrifying power from within, perhaps even capable of devouring the Stardust Storm itself.

The scale of the storm was horrifyingly large. Despite its high speed, there was always a gale howling outside the cave, refusing to subside.

Zhou Heng took a seat, given that he couldn’t go out anyway.

Huo Tian floated gracefully further into the depths of the cave, probably wanting to keep a distance from Zhou Heng. After all, the younger man had ambitions as wild as a wolf’s, always with designs on her.

The Moon Shadow Saintess’s cheeks were slightly flushed, but she sat down in imitation of Zhou Heng, her posture far more elegant, descending gently like a white cloud.

Beauty always forms a delightful picture, no matter the circumstances, and Zhou Heng couldn’t help but admire the goddess sitting less than three feet away, a surge of amazement washing over him.

Though no second woman could rival Huo Tian, in her absence, the Moon Shadow Saintess still radiated her unique charm. Such beauties are the rare gem that maybe one planet yields in a hundred years!

And for such a gem to reach the Divinity Transformation Realm in cultivation, one might emerge in tens of thousands of years!

The Moon Shadow Saintess felt a mix of embarrassment and joy. Initially, she disliked Zhou Heng quite a bit, but who can really fathom the thoughts of a woman?

A beautiful woman loves a hero; as Zhou Heng rose step by step, she watched and how could she not be filled with admiration?

Yet, Zhou Heng had shown no indication of any special regard for her, which irked her to no end.

Was she not beautiful enough? Did she have to humiliate herself by courting his favor?

She had maintained her dignity for a while, even leaving Zhou Heng as a test at one point, but he seemed utterly indifferent, which ultimately made the Moon Shadow Saintess realize that she had to pursue her own happiness.

Luckily, she had followed him to the Immortal Realm; otherwise, who knows when she would have seen Zhou Heng again?

She could not afford to be reserved any longer; otherwise, this scoundrel would never take the initiative!

Fighting the intensity of her shyness, the Moon Shadow Saintess slightly lifted her beautiful eyes and shot Zhou Heng a coy glance, asking, "What do you think of me?"

Zhou Heng appraised the Moon Shadow Saintess from head to toe and responded earnestly, "A bit chubby!"

Chubby?

The Moon Shadow Saintess almost leaped up indignantly, slender as she was, where on her was chubby? Just as she was about to scold him, she saw Zhou Heng’s gaze focus on her ample chest! Her delicate body softened instantly, feeling as though Zhou Heng’s eyes were tangibly caressing the part of her body she was most proud of.

This place being chubby... she could accept that! (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for it on Qidian (qidian.com), your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users please go to m.qidian.com to read.)
