Villain: He intercepted the heroine at the beginning, and the protagonists collapsed

291: Nine satellitesHowever, the mortals and Cultivators in the Small World did not feel any harm from this beam of light.

However, this was actually just Chen Tianming’s method of investigation, and the light emitted was primarily focused on mental energy.

The faint spiritual energy was only used to propel the mental energy and would not harm anyone.

But with Chen Tianming’s divine power pushing it, the air currents, humidity, and moisture throughout the entire Small World all underwent subtle changes.

Seasons transitioned, from summer to autumn, and from autumn to winter.

In an instant, spring arrived, and flowers bloomed.

And those Cultivators, eager to return to their hometowns, relayed the divine miracles Chen Tianming performed to everyone.

At this moment, only the scholar remained by Chen Tianming’s side.

The scholar was not blindly devoted.

He was wholeheartedly dedicated to protecting the peace of the Small World.

Although he saw Chen Tianming’s rise, the scholar already felt in his heart that this wish was becoming increasingly slim.

Yet, he still held firm.

And because of this, Chen Tianming trusted the scholar more.

Allowing him to remain by his side.

Just then, the scholar suddenly asked,

“Immortal, have you found the location of the ruins or any clues during this investigation?”

Chen Tianming’s eyes moved slightly.

He didn’t even need to spread his mental energy; it was as if he could see through the scholar’s mind.

This strange feeling filled Chen Tianming with interest.

But with a look, he realized that all the scholar was thinking was: Did he find clues? If so, hurry up and leave! The Small World can’t endure your torment any longer!

He suddenly felt a bit disheartened.

So he said to the scholar expressionlessly,

“Yes! I found nothing!”

The scholar initially thought it was good news, but upon hearing Chen Tianming’s words, he was stunned on the spot.

“Found nothing? What kind of clue is that?”

Chen Tianming rolled his eyes.

“No wonder you can only remain in the mortal realm… Think about it carefully, the Small World is only palm-sized. If it’s not on the ground, then the only explanation is…”

Chen Tianming pointed his finger towards the sky.

Only then did the scholar realize.

But at the same time, he felt a little wistful…

What does it mean for the Small World to be palm-sized?

As a wanderer of the world, the scholar had traveled the Small World for years, understanding the suffering of mortals.

Most of the Small World was walked foot by foot by him; when did it become palm-sized?

However, perhaps for Chen Tianming’s current realm, the Small World really was palm-sized.

Perhaps, if Chen Tianming truly finds the Xuanhuan World, then the Xuanhuan World will also be palm-sized to him…

The scholar dared not even imagine.

If Chen Tianming truly has a way to connect the Source World and the Small World, would this be good or bad?

The good news is that everyone in the Small World would be able to enjoy the Source Power from the Source World; they would finally find their roots.

But the bad news is that due to the scarcity of spiritual energy in the Small World, a genius only appears every few hundred years.

And even such Cultivation geniuses were wiped out by more than half overnight by that great demon, Lei Li!

Although some of the remaining Cultivators still possess talent, in the short time they would be exposed to the Source World, they would never be able to become mighty beings capable of reaching heaven and earth.

What then would become of the safety of the Small World?

Thinking of this, the scholar could not help but speak.

“Immortal, if possible, please search for clues beyond the Nine Heavens yourself. If the people of the Small World connect with the Source World, I fear less than one-tenth will survive!”

However, this time Chen Tianming did not scoff, nor did he disagree with the scholar’s view.

He still remained expressionless and said to the scholar,

“Don’t worry, the people of the Small World will naturally have my protection then!”

The scholar hesitated to speak.

He didn’t believe Chen Tianming would sacrifice himself to protect the Small World.

After all, he himself was not from the Small World.

But how could a true immortal who had already broken through the Middle Realm and entered Mahayana casually lie to him, a Cultivator with a separated body?

The scholar wanted to resist.

But Chen Tianming’s strength simply did not allow him to resist!

So he could only obey Chen Tianming’s words.

From the next day, Chen Tianming began to roam the void.

During this process, he took the time to personally send all the ordinary mortals from the Small World to the Chaos World, little by little.

In that world, Chen Tianming had countless mansions.

He could easily assign jobs to these Cultivators.

It would only take a little time to support a hundred thousand people.

As for the remaining Cultivators, Chen Tianming specifically assigned them to guard the Bogu Corridor.

It wasn’t until the seventh day that Chen Tianming finally found a clue beyond the Nine Heavens.

Each time he ascended, he needed to accelerate again and again.

With the first acceleration, Chen Tianming could enter the first layer of the void.

Which was where the Fire Kirin’s true body was located.

Chen Tianming found the sun’s height, which was where the Fire Kirin originally was, and only then did he realize that the Fire Kirin had been imprisoned all along.

Above the Fire Kirin’s head, there was another layer, a miraculous restriction!

To break through this restriction, one’s primordial spirit and physical body must achieve unity.

However, the great deity who sealed the Fire Kirin had already separated his spiritual energy and physical body.

This was why the Fire Kirin had been unable to break through all these years.

And after absorbing the Fire Kirin, Chen Tianming naturally sensed the existence of that vague restriction.

At this moment, he seemed to feel a faint enlightenment gradually forming in his mind.

However, this enlightenment came and went quickly.

Even though he had already ascended to Mahayana, Chen Tianming still couldn’t grasp this flash of insight.

So he had to temporarily seal this enlightenment, waiting for the right time to experience it.

At this point, Chen Tianming continued his journey towards the Nine Heavens, and thus experienced the third, fourth, up to the eighth layer of restriction.

After these eight layers, Chen Tianming had no more strength to advance further, feeling as if there was a transparent wall in front of him, sealing him tightly.

He initially thought this was just a layer of restriction, preventing Chen Tianming from moving forward.

However, Chen Tianming was incredibly adventurous.

He explored up and down.

Finally, he discovered that what was blocking him was not a transparent wall at all.

But a completely transparent rhomboid crystal!

This crystal was incredibly massive, almost one-tenth the size of the Small World, and being beyond the Nine Heavens, it was very difficult to find any clues.

But Chen Tianming still found it.

After forty-nine days.

He found nine identical massive crystals outside the Nine Heavens of the entire Small World!

These crystals, like transparent satellites, orbited the entire Small World.

Chen Tianming questioned the Fire Kirin about this.

But unexpectedly, the Fire Kirin, already inside his belly, stammered.

Chen Tianming snorted coldly, stretched out his hand and grabbed into the void, directly seizing one of the nine crystals in his hand.

Seeing the imminent chaos, the Fire Kirin finally couldn’t help but shout to stop him.

“No! If you move one of these nine stones, you will never be able to find the Source World again!”
