Chapter 53: Absolute Jade Mortal Realm

Absolute Jade Mortal Realm

It was a term he was unfamiliar with. After upgrading the Immortal Jade Pendant to +10; many changes happened on it which Shen himself was unaware of. The change not only upgraded the Realm but it also re-created it.

Like after the second layer of the realm unlocked, Shen received the Absolute Taming Card. Similarly, for the third layer he received the Heavenly Genesis Cauldron and on the fourth, he received the Absolute Jade Mortal Realm.

Absolute jade Mortal Realm, it didn't have an explanation, like what it did or what use it had.

As Shen started feeling irritated, he noticed another small stone tablet by the side of the main one. There were words written on it!

[Absolute Jade Mortal Realm]

[The first layer of the mortal realm has been unlocked!]

[Only those who are given the rights of entry, can enter the Mortal Realm. On the first layer, the entry is limited to 15 people.]

[One must be within 20 meters radius of the Sovereign to enter the Mortal Realm.]

[During the entry any foreign soul or tracking method will be rendered useless.]

[Second Layer of the Mortal Realm, Locked]

[Third Layer of the Mortal Realm, Locked]

"..." Shen was speechless.

If it was possible he wished to keep the realm completely secret but given with these benefits he would want to keep his loved ones with him. And if the Mortal Realm was big enough to accommodate the Heavenly Emperor Palace, he would definitely not ignore the chance.

There were too many things inside the Heavenly Emperor Palace. Emperor's Training Ground, Cultivation Pavilion, Heavenly Guards and much more. He wanted to check the treasury badly. Although he didn't expect great things since it was hardly used by the Lust Race, he still hoped to gain some subpar items.

While he might cultivate inside the Absolute Realm, his loved ones could use the benefits inside the palace and there might be cultivation methods that can tempt him!

"Let's just check out Mortal Realm first, I'll know what I can do with it." sighed Shen.

Closing his eyes he focused on his mind. The Mortal Realm should be similar to the Immortal Realm. He imagined himself being inside a different realm. Just as he opened his eyes, he found himself to the outside world. Shen frowned and again tried to enter the mortal realm. This time he found himself in a plain.

[A/N: Absolute Realm -> Immortal Realm;]

This place was nothing impressive like Absolute Jade Immortal Realm, it was rather moderate. The density of energy/qi in the energy was indeed richer than the outside world but it was hugely lacking compared to the Immortal Realm. Not to say, the density of qi inside the Immortal Realm increases with every layer unlocked.

But this place was much bigger than Immortal Realm, he estimated two third of the land to be free even after he placed the Heavenly Emperor Palace here. Far away from the plain land, he noticed some vague mountains and waterfalls!

Rushing, he indeed found the existence of mountains and waterfalls. The mountains were all medium size to big. Only the medium size mountains were visible as for the bigger mountains they were only partly visible.

The rest were blocked by a thick layer of mist, unmovable by any method. It was easier to understand that this layer mist will dissipate when he unlocks the next layer of the Mortal Realm.

He found two waterfalls, one of them came from a medium size mountain. It was rather average and it's possible to take bath here. The other one was, however, connected to a steep mountain and it was hundreds of meters long. The force of the waterfall was strong and Shen could feel this place was a potential training ground for clearing the mind and cultivating Life Qi. Not only that if it was deep enough, it would be suitable for strengthening his body too.

What caught his eyes was this realm seemed to have a day and night cycle system which the Immortal Realm didn't have. He couldn't see the sun, nor the moon. It was almost dark and the surrounding fogs blocked his vision but the dark sky was visible on top of his head.

Much to his surprise, there were trees on the mountains and the plain was filled with grass. He felt like the realm was giving him a world to cultivate.

Which was unlike the Immortal Realm when he received it. He only received the Absolute Chaos Tree and Energy Enhancing Fruit Tree. Compared to the lush green grass in this place, there was not even a stalk of grass.

The existence of tree and waterfalls meant there were living organisms in this place but even after searching for hours he didn't find any beasts but he did find some fish prawns on the water.

He readily decided he will place the palace a little distance away from the magnificent waterfall! Still, he decided to save that for later. He also had his own plans about the Heavenly Palace.

While he didn't want to expose the realm to others, the idea of being able to keep his loved ones with him had already tempted him. He had a palace and realm where he can keep his loved ones. They will be with him and cultivate at the same time. It won't be necessary to separate with them even if he wants to go to the higher level continents!

The limited amount of entry bothered him but he had to unlock the next layer of the realm. So far he had no idea how to unlock the next level of the Mortal Realm. It would be easier if it was connected to the Immortal Realm but he felt it was not. Not after there was another stone table for Absolute Jade Mortal Realm.

'I should try out the leaving and entering method.' thought Shen before leaving the realm with a thought.

Similar to how he used to enter and exit the Immortal Realm, he could exit and enter the mortal realm but no matter how much he tried, he couldn't enter the immortal realm from mortal realm and the same for the opposite method. To enter any of the two realms, he had to come to the outside world.

A gust of wind flew on Shen's face. He stared at the dark sky of Kyushu. The Moon was high in the night sky...

'That's not right. The moon was clearly not that high when I entered the realm. How can time pass so quickly... Unless?' As Shen hit upon the thought he realized there was nothing mentioned about time dilation or active hours on the Absolute Jade Mortal Realm's Stone Tablet.

"Arrgh, I hope I still have two hours of time. I can't waste time now."

Shen entered the Immortal Realm. He first collected ten Great Longevity Fruits from the tree. Before collecting the Thyme and Perillas. Then he searched out the old Clam inside the pond. It seemed the clam was frightened by the blackbird and hid in a corner of the pond.

Shen realized he didn't lecture the mischievous bird to keep its disastrous claws away from the old clam. So he spent another 10 minutes to lecture it properly before starting his cultivation.


Chapter 54: Xuanyu City (1)

Wandering through the vast sky, Shen's gaze only fell on the green forest. The greenery reached as far as his eyes could follow. The black bird glided through the sky, as it did various challenging moves even with the human on its back. Shen's gaze was, however, as still as a tranquil lake.

It's been half a month since Shen got out of the secret realm but he had yet to find any human settlement. He even thought, he was traveling toward the Giant Beast Mountains but that was one of his passing thoughts. He was on the Cang Lang City when he entered the secret realm. He could never be on the Giant Beast Mountains unless... unless the crack on the secret realm lead him there.

Shen closed his eyes, in a lotus position, this half month, he cultivated day and night. Even inside the Immortal Realm, he didn't waste any second. After every round of cultivation, he practiced his control over Primordial Genesis Flame.

Once his try of refining Silver Wound Ointment failed miserably. Not only that they turned into black would ointment. What was funny, the Black Wound Ointment had a special effect.

Black Wound Ointment: Using this ointment on the wound will lessen the body's recovery process. Too many uses can poison the blood.

Speechless, Shen stored it in a corner of the realm, apologizing to the unlucky fellow, whoever will be the one to be his test. From then on, he practiced his control over the Primordial Genesis Flame alternating with Absolute Strengthening Technique.

After his breakthrough to the Martial King realm, he gained several new runes inside his dreamscape. In those, he found a strange rune that differed from the others greatly. It was pink in color and half of it was missing. The rune constantly strengthened his mental energy while it was almost negligible, in the long run, it was exceptionally useful. Not to mention mental energy can't be cultivated easily. He didn't train any technique from the runes and completely devoted himself on cultivating and controlling the flame.

After such a long time of practicing, he finally reached a satisfied level. While it still took time for him to transform Absolute Qi to Chaos Qi, now he could control the flame at so-so level. Seven small balls of yellow flames formed above his head. The flames remained still as if they were not moving at all. The fast movement of the bird seemed non-existent to the fire. Even the air didn't cause the streak of fires to wave a little bit.

The black bird's eyes sharpened in interest as it backflipped in the air. Shen remained rooted on the bird's back, the flames over his head maintained the same distance. At the same time, the number of fireballs started increasing. The black bird didn't remain still as it would do some unexpected moves from time to time.

By the time, there were fifteen fireballs over Shen's head, his whole body was soaked in sweat. From time to time, his pores released black murky sweat. This was the effect of cultivating Absolute Strengthening Technique and Primordial Genesis Flame together. The technique absorbed the flame energy through his pores and purified his muscle and tendons. The flame energy obviously causes immense pain but it was killing two birds in a single move for him, or even three.

At the end of the second layer of the Absolute Strengthening Technique, Shen formed 12 strands of qi on his muscles, surrounding his bone structure. On the third layer, every grade will form twelve strands of qi surrounding his bone structure at the same time they will nourish his muscle and blood. That was to say if he didn't use any external methods his cultivation will be harder than twelve times.

The first part of the third layer, however, was easier compared to the laters. To break through to the second grade Martial King, he had to strengthen the qi strands as strong as steel. They will continuously release chaos energy and purify his muscle and tendons. They also served a great purpose on his Absolute Physique for purifying his blood to Absolute Bloodline.

Screech

Suddenly, the black bird screeched in, the meaning was understood clearly by Shen. The bird found something, probably a city or village. The fire above his head slowly died down as his eyes slowly opened.

It was indeed a human settlement, to be more exact a city. The bird landed one mile away from the city. While it was not necessary, Shen didn't want to attract unnecessary attention. More so, when he had no idea of his whereabouts.

Shen entered the city through the massive gate, the security seemed rather lax as the guards didn't bother to stop Shen as he entered. The city was called Xuanyu City. Surrounded by the natural beauty of forests Xuanyu City was a rather bright one. Along with the long river, the city was more prosperous than Hundred Miles City. Just with the view from the sky, Shen knew it was at least twice the size of Hundred Miles City.

Right after he entered the city, he searched for clothing stores. Having Kaidi outside the Immortal Realm was essential but having a cat on top of head or shoulder makes him stand out. The more important reason was she keeps bugging him since it was boring all day inside the Immortal Realm. Now however she spent some time inside the mortal realm which made the time a lot shorter for her. It was something they both were grateful about.

Not long after the start of his search, he found a cloth store. He grabbed a white dress of Kaidi's size and a long black cloak before entering a corner of the street. Soon, another person followed behind Shen. It was none other than Kaidi.

The simple white cloth hugged her petite body while the black cloak hid her ears and tail from public view. The white dress matched with her white eyebrows, eyelashes, and hairs. She was a divine beauty of white who walked out of the portrait and descended on the mortal world.

The black hood added a sense of mystery in her beauty. Cloth makes the man; Shen couldn't help but nod. It was more true for ladies.

"Come on, you promised to do whatever I wanted." Kaidi tugged Shen's sleeve as she looked at left and right. Unlike her usual behavior how she used to give Shen cold shoulder and act lazy, she had a rather lively and cheerful smile on her face.

"Of course, I keep my promise." seeing her so lively, Shen couldn't help but smile.
