160: Another cultivation? Seeking Immortality Palace!

Stepping out of the spatial rift, Chen De reappeared in the Four Profound Heavens.

It was still the same place, the place where Chen De had been blown apart.

Chen De appeared out of thin air at that exact spot.

He turned his head to look at the surrounding scenery, which was now completely different from when Chen De first arrived.

Chen De knew that this was not a place to stay for long.

After emerging, he randomly chose a direction and fled.

Not long after, a faint spatial fluctuation emanated from the spot where Chen De had appeared.

Chen De sensed that fluctuation as soon as it emerged.

However, Chen De was not yet capable of concealing the spatial fluctuations that could be produced by a hidden collision.

At least, Chen De could not do it for fluctuations of this world's level.

Even though this fluctuation was very, very faint...

That did not mean the energy of this fluctuation was small.

On the contrary, it was very powerful.

It was only because the Four Profound Heavens was too high a tier that this seemingly minor effect occurred.

To conceal the fluctuations generated by a world of this level, one would need to be at least in the Heavenly Imperial Realm.

If the world's intensity were slightly weaker, Chen De might have been able to try.

For now, it was better for Chen De to run as far as he could.

Because Chen De could not guarantee whether those who would arrive later would be in the Void Union Realm or the Heavenly Imperial Realm.

Thus, under Chen De's frantic escape, he quickly arrived at a place far away from there.

Then, Chen De's system map displayed the appearance of a Void Union Realm profound practitioner.

On the map, he was moving rapidly towards the place where Chen De had emerged.

The opponent's strength was not particularly impressive; he was merely at Void Union Realm Second Layer.

The fact that the opponent could arrive at this distance so quickly was likely due to the advantage of already being in the vicinity.

This level of strength would not be able to conquer the Xuanzhe Continent.

Putting everything else aside, even the Thunder Howling Sky Dragon King Lei Kan would be a challenge for him.

If he went in, he would probably be instantly killed.

However, Chen De knew very well that this was just small fry.

Void Union Realm profound practitioners of this level still had a very vague sense of special spatial fluctuations.

But Heavenly Imperial Realm profound practitioners could directly determine the world's level based on the intensity, characteristics, speed, and so on of the fluctuations.

Of course, some powerful Void Union Realm profound practitioners, as well as those with extraordinary talent in space like Chen De, could also do it.

Worlds capable of giving birth to Heavenly Imperial Realm level powerhouses were undoubtedly a juicy piece of meat for those Heavenly Imperial Realm profound practitioners.

Martial artists would fight for it; they would absolutely not let it go.

It was just unknown which Heavenly Imperial Realm profound practitioner would ultimately succeed.

Would it be the Governor of Qingyun Prefecture, or the Commander of the Shenwu Guard?

Or perhaps the Qiu Xian Hall Master, the head of Qingyun Prefecture's top sect, or the Qianyuan Sect Master, the head of the second sect...

Even forces from other prefectures, outside the prefecture, might come to get a share.

These forces from other prefectures generally did not have the ability to permanently occupy a small world that was not in their own prefecture.

Once they discovered a small world in another prefecture, most would treat it as a one-time deal, grabbing what they could and then fleeing.

Chen De was not very concerned about this outcome; he did not care who ultimately succeeded.

Anyway, everything within the Xuanzhe Continent had already been dealt with by Chen De.

No matter how they searched or caused trouble, it would not involve Chen De.

In fact, to be safe and avoid a repeat of past events, Chen De had not brought anything from the Xuanzhe Continent.

Now, what Chen De needed to think about was what to do next.

Chen De had already enjoyed the benefits of cultivating multiple systems: combat ability far exceeding those of the same rank.

Although it could not allow one to fight across ranks, being invincible at the same rank was already very rare.

Chen De planned to cultivate another system to further enhance his strength.

The system's advantages were so great; it would be a pity not to make good use of them.

Chen De could currently cultivate one additional system, which was a benefit brought by his beast transformation.

Now that the benefits were exhausted, if Chen De wanted to cultivate another system, he would have to find a method for dual cultivation.

According to the information Chen De had gathered, only Heavenly Imperial Realm level forces would possess such methods.

In Qingyun Prefecture, there were two sects Chen De could choose from.

One was Qiu Xian Hall, and the other was Qianyuan Sect.

Qiu Xian Hall was stronger than Qianyuan Sect, so the probability of Qiu Xian Hall possessing the method Chen De needed was also higher.

Of course, Chen De would not let go of Qianyuan Sect either.

It was just that Chen De's main body would go to Qiu Xian Hall, while Qianyuan Sect would be handled by another person.

With a two-pronged approach, he should be able to get what Chen De needed.

As for Tianyan Sect...

Honestly, Chen De did not have a strong desire for revenge.

Even if someone had a deep grudge against Chen De, he would be too lazy to specifically seek revenge without any benefit.

Moreover, Chen De always did things thoroughly, leaving no one with a deep grudge against him alive.

For example, Tianyan Sect already believed Chen De was dead, so they naturally would not pose a threat to Chen De anymore.

Besides, Tianyan Sect was no longer valuable to the current Chen De.

Going there to gain something might not even elevate him by a single minor realm.

Chen De then made up his mind: if it was convenient, Chen De would deal with Tianyan Sect.

If not, then so be it; he would consider it later.

...

"This small world was first discovered by my Xukun Sect, so it should be ours, you..."

Unexpectedly, as soon as these words were spoken, they were immediately refuted.

"Screw you!"

"Say that again?"

"I'll screw you!"

"I'll screw you!"

With that, the two started fighting at the slightest disagreement, causing spatial fluctuations to emanate from the area.

But anyone with a discerning eye could see that these two were faking it.

Even though they were fighting with red faces, in reality, they weren't using any real force.

At a time like this, anyone who genuinely attacked, truly attacked, would be an idiot.

Everyone was watching; no one would be allowed to get ahead.

Thus, a delicate balance was struck among the crowd.

More and more people were arriving here.

Even the lowest cultivated among them had a cultivation of Void Union Realm First Layer.

There was no other way; to sense this special fluctuation, one had to be at least a Void Union Realm profound practitioner.

As more and more people arrived, some Void Union Realm profound practitioners from other prefectures even poured in.

For a time, the atmosphere became tense, with swords drawn and bows strung.

The people from this prefecture couldn't even divide it among themselves, and now people from other prefectures were sneaking in; how could they still get any benefits?

When there were too many people, it was easy for things to get chaotic.

So, after maintaining a delicate balance, someone immediately stirred up trouble in the dark,

"This is a small world discovered by our Qingyun Prefecture. No matter how it's divided, it has nothing to do with you people from other prefectures.

I advise you all to be sensible and leave early, lest you die in a foreign land.

At that time, there won't even be anyone to collect your corpse, which would be very unsightly."

Although these words were spoken by certain individuals, the martial artists from Qingyun Prefecture in the field also meant the same thing.

But the people from other prefectures snorted coldly, "Don't bring out such tricks to make a fool of yourselves.

We weren't scared into growing up, and those who were scared wouldn't dare to come here!

Today, we will definitely get our share of this pie!"
