Chapter 309: Chapter 307 Red Sun (Owed 9)_1
The Southern Wilderness Cultivation Realm is extremely vast, and there are several behemoth nations in the central region, just like Yuan Country.
The Cultivation Realms of Yue, Mu, and Martial Kingdoms are located at the far north of the Southern Wilderness Cultivation Realm, and are quite rural.
And departing from the three nations, one must traverse a section of the Ten Thousand Beast Mountain Range to reach the nearest Yuan Country.
This was not a safe stretch like those in the three countries, which had been settled and patrolled by Fairy Cities and marketplaces for countless years, with very few monster beasts; it was a raw and untamed mountain range and territory.
Within it, Level 3 Monster Kings were not everywhere, but they were not scarce either.
As a result, even Core Formation Cultivators had to be extremely cautious, avoiding several dangerous areas, and it could take several years for a single journey.
Fang Xi first passed through Baize Immortal City, then traversed a section of the Martial Kingdom, and finally plunged headlong into the wild Ten Thousand Beast Mountain Range.
’Martial Kingdom, Yiling Valley, Old Yan...’
Before entering the Ten Thousand Beast Mountain Range, Fang Xi couldn’t help but feel a bit sentimental.
Although he had never been to this country, there should be legends of him everywhere within.
Luckily, with his intent on staying hidden, not a single Cultivator could detect the trace of the Demon Dragon Car.
Of course, even if discovered, even if Old Yan came knocking at his door, it would certainly not be his misfortune.
...
Half a month later.
A Stone Mountain Giant Ape was roaring up at the sky, its sonic waves spreading far and wide, knocking a flock of Monster Birds out of the sky, countless feathers fluttering down...
Not far away, a lizard demonic beast sprang out from beneath the shadows, its tongue lashing out to swallow a small creature drinking at the edge of a lake, and just as it was about to leave, an even thicker and more ferocious tongue emerged from within the lake, and with a single flick, the lizard demonic beast vanished into thin air...
These Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment level monster beasts played and hunted to their heart’s content...
Completely unaware that an invisible carriage had just passed above their heads.
"Is this the true Ten Thousand Beast Mountain Range? The position of the three nations is indeed just the outermost fringe of it..."
Inside the carriage, Fang Xi was somewhat astounded.
He had long obtained a map to Yuan Country, after all, Master Bai Feng had once gone there, and his disciple Yuan Feihong had taken refuge with him...
Besides that, there were also related records within the Green Wood Sect.
"On the way to Yuan Country, though I’ve already tried to bypass the dangers as much as possible, I still must pass through territories of several Level 3 Monster Kings... Because compared to other dangers, those places are already the safest."
"Moreover... the territories of the monster beasts are extremely vast, so as long as one doesn’t expose one’s aura and passes through quietly, the probability of being discovered is very small..."
Right now, Fang Xi had already asked the groom to retreat inside the carriage.
Daqing was in charge of the situation outside.
After all, the Demon Blood Flood Dragon had become a wooden Puppet, obedient but less agile, and Fang Xi, if not careful, might find it barreling straight towards the lair of a Level 3 Great Demon.
Although Fang Xi wouldn’t mind acquiring another Level 3 Demon Pill, killing one could easily attract the siege of other Monster Kings.
Not to mention, there were rumors that there are suspected Level 4 Transformed Great Demons in the deepest parts of the Ten Thousand Beast Mountain Range!
Even if there were no Level 4 Transformed Great Demons, the Phoenix Bloodline of the Monster Clan, which left feathers behind last time, is definitely present and extremely difficult to deal with.
At this moment, the Demon Dragon Car was pulled by two Flood Dragons, one green and one black.
Surrounding the carriage was a hazy mist, an illusionary effect created by the Azure horn Fish Dragon using the technique of cloud driving and fog manipulation.
"It’s time to start!"
Fang Xi looked at the handsome young man in front of him and muttered.
The handsome young man opened his eyes and smiled slightly, "Didn’t you refine me just for this task?"
Upon hearing this, Fang Xi let out a self-deprecating laugh and gestured with his hand.
The Externalization vanished into thin air, having been transferred into the third World opened by the ’Treasures of All Heavens’!
...
’Fang Xi’ looked up at the Red Sun in the sky.
"This World could perhaps be named the ’Red Sun World’!"
He said to himself, a smile curling at the corner of his mouth.
He had just emerged from a mountain cave in a desolate range of mountains and forests, where he created the World.
"This World and Great Liang do not contain a fragment of the ’Treasures of All Heavens’..."
"I still cannot control this treasure, and the Worlds it opens have a random nature..."
"Fortunately, after several previous attempts and explorations... I have gained a deeper understanding of the rules of traversal."
Fang Xi had actually already sent his Externalization here before and mastered the regularity of this kind of transfer.
As he expected, the mutual traversal between them took each other as ’anchors’.
That is to say, if the Externalization traversed back now, it would only appear beside Fang Xi.
And if Fang Xi wanted to come here, the same rule applied!
Moreover, once both left a World, upon their return, they would only appear at the place where Fang Xi’s true body disappeared.
This could be said to be a piece of good news!
It signified not only that Fang Xi could summon his Externalization at any time or assist the Externalization, but it also meant that the deficiencies of the Externalization weren’t an issue for him at all.
The Externalization of the Demon Path, while seemingly powerful, almost like having a second life, was prone to developing a second personality and becoming rebellious if it stayed away from the main body for too long, without the assimilation and influence of its aura.
Throughout history, there have been innumerable cases of Demon Sect leaders being betrayed or even replaced by their own Externalizations for various reasons.
But Fang Xi had no such fears.
At his thought, the Externalization could appear before him for assimilation and control.
Thus, as long as Fang Xi summoned his Externalization periodically, it became possible for it to explore other Worlds independently.
"In the past few attempts, I tried transmitting and then left in a hurry..."
"This time, I can properly explore this world."
Fang Xi muttered to himself, picked a direction, and strode away.
Out of caution, he did not fly using Escape Light.
But as he ran, Fang Xi could feel the power of this externalization.
Bang!
With a bit of force, the bluestone beneath his rear foot instantly shattered, and he shot out like a cannonball.
Wherever he passed, whether it was centuries-old thick trees or huge rocks, were easily smashed open and blown to pieces.
After briefly trying out this spectacular travel method, Fang Xi gave it up and lightly tapped with his toes, leaping onto the tree canopies and moving through the woods as if a gust of wind.
Whoosh whoosh!
A shadow, ghostly, covered dozens of meters in a single bound.
If seen by mortals, they would surely believe they had seen an Immortal or... a spectral spirit!
"Hmm... Besides the Red Sun in the sky, there doesn’t seem to be much difference from the Southern Wilderness..."
"Even in the Void, I can sense the presence of spiritual energy... In terms of concentration, stronger than Great Liang but weaker than the Fragment World... I wonder which world this is."
It is said that below the Earth Immortal Realm, there are three thousand Everlasting Sand minor worlds!
’Three thousand’ is just a figure of speech; the actual number of minor worlds far exceeds three thousand!
Fang Xi even suspected that the Great Cold World, the Minghuan World, the recently encountered Red Sun World, and the Southern Wilderness Cultivation Realm he belonged to, were all one of these Everlasting Sand-like minor worlds!
This ubiquitous spiritual energy is proof!
"This world... should also have Immortal Cultivators, just don’t know how strong or powerful they are..."
Fang Xi muttered, then suddenly stopped in his tracks.
He emerged from the thicket and stood atop the tallest azure ancient tree, observing the scenery ahead with some shock.
Just ten miles away, a huge golden flower bloomed magnificently!
The flower stood a hundred meters tall, with a vibrant green body and a flat, plate-like crown radiating gold, resembling a colossal sunflower.
But at the center of the sunflower, there were... human faces?!
"A vile creature?!"
Fang Xi murmured, extending his Divine Thought, feeling the difficulty in dealing with this vile creature.
He turned around, picked another direction, and began to move swiftly.
Woo woo!
The giant Human-faced Sunflower seemed to have noticed Fang Xi’s departure and emitted a tremendous wailing sound.
Suddenly!
Boom!
The top of the flower burst into an explosion, with dozens of golden ’little suns’ scattering in all directions.
Many of which drifted towards Fang Xi’s location.
Upon closer inspection, these ’little suns’ were actually luminous spheres each bearing a bizarre face with a crying and laughing expression, staring intently at Fang Xi...
"Hmph!"
Fang Xi snorted coldly, his hands forming a seal, and the surrounding spheres were sliced by countless invisible blades, immediately dividing into pieces and dissipating...
Fang Xi itself, not caring about revealing himself, leaped up and, driving a pitch-black Demon Light, vanished in the blink of an eye...
...
Three days later.
Nighttime.
"What kind of godforsaken place is this?"
Fang Xi, steering the Escape Light, looked utterly frustrated.
Since three days ago, after shaking off the Human-faced Sunflower, his luck seemed to keep declining; he continually ran into powerful vile creatures.
The most terrifying was a huge glowing jellyfish floating at night.
Translucent with a shine of fluorescent blue, it possessed the capability to capture spirits and seize souls.
If it weren’t for this externalization having the strength of Core Formation level, a Foundation Establishment Cultivator that encountered it might have been intimidated, their soul hooked away, turning them into a zombie that unwittingly feeds itself to the vile creature!
’Several setbacks... Perhaps I chose the wrong direction?’
Fang Xi pondered in his heart, then chose a direction far away from the various vile creatures, and his journey indeed became much calmer.
It also made him reflect that this Red Sun World was filled with dangers and that it would not be easy for ordinary people, even Cultivators, to survive.
Promptly, as he sped through with his Escape Light, the trees became shorter and lower, and it seemed that soon he would be able to leave this desolate forest, causing a trace of joy to appear on Fang Xi’s face.
Suddenly, he felt a stirring in his heart and entered a mist.
Within the fog, a woman’s voice seemed to be humming an unknown song.
He did not comprehend the meaning of the lyrics at all, but the melody was heartbreakingly beautiful and melodic.
Fang Xi stopped his Escape Light, his face showing an ambiguous smile.
There, atop a pitch-black ancient tree, stood a woman’s figure.
Her figure was graceful, facing away from Fang Xi, with her long black hair cascading down like a waterfall, truly a breathtaking sight from the back.
"This young lady..."
Fang Xi smiled and directly spoke up.
The woman turned around, revealing a face of perfect beauty, but unfortunately, only half could be seen; the other half was reduced to bone with no flesh and blood, and in her eye sockets were only dark, hollow cavities glaring at Fang Xi.
