Your talent is indeed the best I’ve ever seen. I originally intended to guide you on how to condense saber intent a month later so your saber intent could obtain initial success. You’ve done even better than I imagined. In just a month, you’ve already gained saber intent initial success. Your saber intent is no longer scattered and messy. It has actually improved. By using more metamorphosis, it could attain large success. Now, you have the qualifications to compete against any other genius,
praised Qian Fenghua.
He was not implying that Di Jiu qualified because he had comprehended the different levels of saber intent. Unlike before, Di Jiu had understood the meaning of saber intent, so he would be able to have a clear sense of which Dao techniques and supernormal cultivation techniques to cultivate.
Di Jiu bowed.
Thank you for your guidance, sir. If it weren’t for you, I would still be clueless and ignorant. In my heart, you are my Master.

Qian Fenghua shook his head.
I don’t have the necessary ability to become your Master. I’m only telling you what everyone else knows. The galaxy is boundless. There is an infinite number of genius experts, yet you possess the potential and strength to become one of them in the future.


Sir, according to the Saber Dao jade slip, intent stages are categorized into rudimentary mastery, initial success, large success and perfected force. I didn’t read anything about condensed force,
said Di Jiu.

Actually, condensed force is not the highest stage of intent,
Qian Fenghua answered.
Once your saber intent surpasses the condensed force stage, there’s still a stage called the Metamorphosis Realm.


Metamorphosis Realm?
Di Jiu was completely lost.

I have only heard of this realm,
Qian Fenghua said.
I have never met an expert who has attained it. When this kind of expert casts a magic technique, their technique becomes more like a supernormal ability. When they use their divine powers, provided that there is supernormal ability intent, their enemies are unknowingly brought into the mirror image of the supernormal ability and left at the caster’s mercy. The intent these experts cast is no different in reality. However, you need not worry. Given your comprehending capability, you will also attain that capability one day.


Now, to answer your question about whether time and space also contain intent, I once heard of an explanation in this area. After intent is transformed into the Metamorphosis Realm, it does not remain at the highest stage. The reality created by the Metamorphosis Realm is actually an illusion used to confuse your opponent. However, the purpose of the Metamorphosis Realm is not to create such illusionary realities.


This involves the Law. Once you come into touch with any Laws, the reality you create gradually becomes more real. It’s said that, in battles between apex experts, the contestants use Laws to fight. The word ‘Law’ is an umbrella term. In fact, there are many different types of laws: time laws, space laws, five element laws… It would be easy for one to create a real world once they have completely grasped these laws.

Di Jiu took a deep breath. Were there still some experts able to casually create realities for their opponents to get caught in? The battles between real experts were law battles. The reason Di Jiu could come into contact with the law aura was the gray stone he possessed. Learning was indeed an endless process. He was still far from becoming an apex expert.

I’ve only just come into contact with laws. It will be a long time before I can use any form of them. Even though you’ve understood a little about laws, you know nothing about them. You must have come into contact with a priceless treasure that coincidentally allowed you to gain some insight. If you really want to gain some insight on laws, you should start from a specific law first.
Qian Fenghua admired Di Jiu’s perceptive nature, so he shared with him everything he knew.
He believed that Di Jiu had obtained a priceless treasure and told Di Jiu as much so that he would pay more attention and take caution. Unlike him, other people might be interested in a priceless treasure that could allow one to gain insight on laws.
Di Jiu sighed.
After hearing your words, sir, I now realize how ignorant I used to be.

Qian Fenghua smiled coolly.
I didn’t teach you much. I’ve just been to more places than you and lived longer. If you get the opportunity in the future, leave the Night Star Continent and visit the other four continents and Small Central Worlds to take a look.


Other continents? Small central worlds? What are you talking about?
asked Di Jiu in astonishment.

Your cultivation is still weak,
said Qian Fenghua.
When you attain the True Form Realm, you will have no choice but to leave the Night Star Planet. To my knowledge, only the Small Central Worlds contain places that allow one to enter higher realms.

Di Jiu was a little doubtful.
Didn’t you say that one would need a Plane Split Talisman to be able to enter the planes of other planets? Does every True Form Realm Cultivator need a Plane Split Talisman?


No, the planes of the five continents are actually not very far from one another. All continents have a teleportation array that allows one to teleport to Small Central Worlds, where cultivation civilization is the most advanced. I followed my Master to a Small Central World after I attained the Void Spirit Realm. Although I was considered an apex genius in the Night Star Continent, there were many geniuses at the same cultivation realm in the Small Central World who outpowered me.


Sometimes, when you think that you’re a genius, you should travel. You will soon discover that you’re not a genius. Your potential and insight capabilities are the strongest I’ve ever seen. Even if I connected the Polar Night Continent and the Half-Screen Continent, the root of the problem would still not be resolved. Actually, this wouldn’t repair the Night Star Continent. There’s no reason for you to stay here, as you wouldn’t be able to develop any further…
Qian Fenghua sighed.
Di Jiu had originally intended to exterminate the Qi Family’s Commercial Building before leaving the Polar Night Continent and returning to the Everlasting Domain Planet. Now, he was even more determined to leave the Polar Night Continent.
What are the five planes, sir? If there are Small Central Worlds, are there large central worlds as well?


Even if you didn’t ask, I intended to tell you,
Qian Fenghua answered.
A Small Central World is located in the center of this realm. It is the place with the densest Spirit Qi, the most complete laws, and the best Heaven and Earth providence light. This place could produce cultivators with top-notch aptitudes, superb spiritual herbs and various treasures.


Around this Small Central World are four other continents. One of them is the Night Star Continent, also known as the Night Star Planet, which is where we are currently. The second is the Constant Heaven Continent, also known as the Constant Grain Planet. This continent is also a powerhouse cultivation continent a little weaker than the Small Central World. The third is the Elixir Eclipse Continent, also known as the Elixir Veil Planet, which produces top-notch Elixir Kings. The fourth is the Yalun Continent, also known as the Everlasting Domain Planet. I’ve never been to this continent, but I’ve heard that technology is advanced there. As far as the True Central Continent is concerned, you would need to leave this plane before you could come into contact with it.


Yalun Continent, Everlasting Domain Planet…
muttered Di Jiu before he said excitedly,
Sir, I came here from the Yalun Continent and I want to go back. Does this Small Central World really have a teleportation array that could transport me to the Yalun Continent?

Di Jiu’s excitement was involuntary. He had not expected that the Yalun Continent would be one of the planets in the same orbit as the Polar Night Continent. According to Qian Fenghua, he did not need to use the Plane Split Talisman to return to the Yalun Continent.
Qian Fenghua, who had not expected such a coincidence either, laughed and said,
So long as the Small Central World has not changed, there will definitely be a teleportation array that can get you to the Yalun Continent. It’s important to note that when one reaches the True Form Realm, they must leave this plane through the Small Central World. Without a teleportation array, how could they possibly go to the Small Central World? I’m really worried that the teleportation array that leads from the Night Star Continent to the Small Central World has been destroyed. In that case, it will be slightly harder to return to the Yalun Continent. However, you can purchase a Small Central World galaxy locale map in the Night Star Continent. You only need to spend some time. If you really intend to leave through the galaxy, you will need to attain the Pioneer Sea Realm before you can enter the galaxy.

Di Jiu was so excited that he kowtowed respectfully three times before Qian Fenghua.
I will always remember your help, sir. Regardless of whether you’ve accepted me as your disciple, in my heart, you are my Master.

Di Jiu had not intended to formally acknowledge Qian Fenghua as his Master. However, Qian Fenghua’s respectable demeanor and his effort in guiding Di Jiu had made Di Jiu consider him his Master. Di Jiu was certain that Qian Fenghua knew that he possessed a priceless treasure that could allow him to understand laws. However, Qian Fenghua did not show any signs of wanting to seize it for himself. Instead, he put all his effort into teaching Di Jiu about many things he had not come into contact with. This knowledge would most likely save his life in the future, so Di Jiu treated Qian Fenghua like a respected teacher.
When Qian Fenghua sensed Di Jiu’s sincerity, his heart felt warm. He and He Weiwei had been cultivation partners, yet they had not had a kid, even though they had been together for many years. He had not taken on any disciples, as all his attention had been on He Weiwei. Now that Di Jiu had shown his sincerity, he suddenly felt that he was not a useless person who had been abandoned.
He was an impassioned man. That was why he had sworn to stay there when he had unintentionally split the Night Star Continent into two. He had felt extremely guilty. He Weiwei had been aware of his nature. Character-wise, Di Jiu was the same kind of person that he was.

Go! Don’t mind me. In the future, the galaxy will remember your name.
Qian Fenghua did not feel as lonely anymore.
Di Jiu stood up and said resolutely,
Fret not, Master. One day, I will come back and visit you.

Qian Fenghua’s eye turned a little red. He could sense that Di Jiu was sincere. Although he was an impassioned man, this did not mean that he didn’t know how cruel the Cultivation World could be. There were not many men like Di Jiu, who had said sincerely that he would come back and see him. Through Di Jiu’s words, Qian Fenghua could tell that Di Jiu truly thought of him as his Master.
After suffering under the hands of his lifelong cultivation partner, the heavens had compensated him by allowing him to encounter this earnest disciple. Unfortunately, in all his years in the galaxy, he had not left behind an estate. If he had, this disciple would have had an easier time when he went to the galaxy in the future.

Go. The boundless, vast galaxy is your true home.
As he waved his hand, Qian Fenghua grabbed a handful of array flags and scattered them around.
Powerful strength enveloped Di Jiu and raised him up. Di Jiu knew that this meant that Qian Fenghua was about to merge the Half-Screen Continent and the Polar Night Continent.
Qian Fenghua was an earnest man, yet he was not good at showing his feelings. He was unwilling to let Di Jiu see his true emotions, so he decided to start repairing the Night Star Planet in advance.
