Consuming Earths, Devouring Skies

"Oh?" Yan Zaizen inspected the location and felt intrigued. The Heavenly Law and Non Law connected to the sub-realm by two opposing directions, yet they had merged perfectly, the middle acting as an equator of sorts.

He could feel the law of the heavens within, fire, sword, space, and even rock, yet he could also feel the Law of Purity which originated from the Non Law. Not only that, as they tunneled in, there was an odd interaction within this space.

Especially towards the essence surging in. This essence was as pure as top-quality essence crystals. Even though all essence is essentially low-grade in quality, often impure and intermixed with all sorts of contaminants, this essence was pure to the limit!

"If so, then..." As Yan Zaizen observed this oddity, he started to sense the profundities of the heavenly laws. As he did, his eyes brightened! The laws were unaffected, but simply pondering them within this space felt as if the mind and soul were purified.

If it wasn’t for the fact his body and soul was already at the peak purity, he felt that an experience like the time he had assimilated the Regalia of the Soul would occur again - a forceful expunging of impurities.

"Interesting, one’s thoughts and soul would be unaffected by the normal impurities of the heavens." After determining this, he nodded in pride. "Only a place like this was suitable for my base, and cultivation grounds for my disciples."

With it between the two universes, he could easily enter this realm from any realm within the Heavenly Universe. This made it so, if he developed a spatial formation, he could have people directly sent here regardless of their location.

There were some limitations currently, but he was fairly confident in the sub-realm’s future.

"Extraordinary!" Pinaka had stayed silent, observing Yan Zaizen achieve the absolute unthinkable. Of course, most of this was because she was forced to slumber in the Non Universe. She understood a little about this universe, but it still brought her wonders.

Not to mention, in this sub-realm, she could consciously feel the Non Universe’s laws yet can remain awake.

"You say that now, but we haven’t even decorated it yet!" Yan Zaizen carelessly chuckled as if he wasn’t a creator of a near impossible feat by heavenly standards.

However, it was unfortunate that the sub-realm had a diameter of only roughly ten million in kilometers. At the moment, he couldn’t expand it. It was like a very, very small planet by heavenly standards. However, for now, it would be suitable.

With a gleeful chuckle, he slapped his palms together and shouted, "let there be light!"

In the makeshift cultivation cavern produced by Yan Zaizen, Amy and Damian were cultivating with excitement. Even though they were reading their respective methods, each breath they took caused their cultivation base to rise. It was extraordinary.

In the one hour since Yan Zaizen left, their cultivation bases had already reached the peak-Qi Cyclone Realm by just circulating their cultivation base normally!

Amy may have lost her cultivation in a split second, but after spending some time in the cave, any grievances she had dispersed like sand in a storm. "Who is our Master?" She couldn’t help but ask, turning to Damian.

She wasn’t sure who Damian was, but she felt that considering he had been with him longer, he had a better idea.

Damian could feel her questioning gaze on him. It made him feel a little squeamish. However, when he thought about how Yan Zaizen was now his master, a person of profound power and likely a True Lord, a faint removal towards his developed inferiority complex towards females occurred.

"I’m not sure, but he’s definitely a powerful cultivator, a True Lord!" Damian replied with excitement. However, this made Amy knit her brows in contemplation. It was obvious Damian was as clueless as she, and even more so.

The books Yan Zaizen had casually given them were considered God-Tier Methods within the Graceful Sword Realm. Unless one touched the heavens, it would be impossible to acquire such an item! Yet, Damian assumed Yan Zaizen was a True Lord, and this indicated his life experiences were little to nothing.

"His age is likely very close to his looks, if not exact." She thought, sighing to herself. This master of hers was a big mystery, but the reason he took them as disciples was also unknown, and this made her cautious. Could it be that she possessed an exceptional hidden talent that only powerful cultivators could discover?

As she pondered more on this, the insurgency outside faced a calamity!

-----

The two women, one in red and one in blue, both twins, continued looking about in outer space. Their heavenly sense was sweeping the area thoroughly but still discovering no anomalies amongst the surroundings.

Ella, the woman in red, asked coldly with a malevolent expression, "Could it have been a distraction?"

Emma, the woman in blue, smiled calmly, "If so, its a minor one." After sweeping with their senses once more, they turned into two comets of light towards the main planet.

"Incompetent, to think that idiot Dana is so useless that she allowed that spy to escape," Ella said with a hint of murdering intent. While they were searching, Dana had sent a transmission informing them of Amy’s disappearance. It was unsure if she was capable of alerting the insurgency or not, but this moved up their timetable.

They wouldn’t be able to mark all the rebels discreetly with their heavenly sense, and will have to settle for the ones in the base. This caused their plan to fully eliminate the insurgency to suffer considerably, infuriating them both.

Emma smilingly said, "it’s fine. At least removing the majority of the threat will lessen our burden." As they traveled at astonishing speeds, they conversed about many things, including punishing Dana for her incompetence. This was something both of them agreed upon.

Shortly after, they arrived above the headquarters for the male insurgency. The false puppet they sent for bait was currently emitting a very discreet signal attuned to their heavenly sense. With that, it would be too easy to determine its location.

"Allow me," Emma maintained her smile, not emitting an ounce of killing intent, as she raised her hand above her head. Her heavenly-infused true essence surged outwards from her fingers. This true essence was exceptionally sharp as it formed five swords the size of fingers.

Swipe!

Five swords composed of true essence was sent downwards, entering the formation like raindrops, infiltrating the base, and erupting with dense sword energy. Shockingly, there weren’t any signs of screams of exclamations from the base as it swept about. Only the ripping and tearing of the true essence, flesh, and all within were diced into mincemeat.

Before a heavenly cultivator, all those in the Essence Path were like ants, and this attack was the ant spray.

In seconds, no life signatures were emitted from the base. A single attack, even without utilizing her heavenly shrine, had brought about a swift death to even the three True Essence experts within.

"Let’s go," Ella coldly said, taking off.

Emma smiled as she looked at the ground that was ripped asunder. This smile was filled with glee and happiness, unlike a person who had just killed thousands of lives effortlessly. "Killing is so fun!"
