With the Sect Masters agreement that he would not spy on Zhu Yi, he could cultivate in the time bubble without worrying. Zhu Yi set up the time bubble and the array and began to cultivate. The time bubble affected time by ten times.
With ten times more Qi, Zhu Yi cultivated a hundred times faster than others.
When 200 years passed outside and 2,000 inside, Zhu Yi reached the 2nd level of the soul formation realm.
When 300 years passed in the outside world and 3,000 inside, Zhu Yu heard a knock on his door.
500 years had passed. It was time to fight Chaos Beasts. Zhu Yi stopped the time bubble and stood up.
Although his cultivation speed would seem slow for someone with unknown meridians, he could say anything to explain himself. Most likely, the sect master wouldn't end up asking questions.
Zhu Yi stepped outside and met the Sect Master. The Sect Master noticed his cultivation level, but didn't say anything. Everything would be better after fighting Chaos Beasts.
The Sect Master took out a giant sword. "We'll fly on this."
Zhu Yi nodded and stepped on the sword. They flew out of the Sect Master's residence and eventually flew above the Sword Sect.
All around, there were countless flying swords.
"The Sword Sect sends out every member to fight the Chaos Beasts every time."
Zhu Yi could guess why based on what he heard from Elder Chit.
The Sect Master held out his hand, and the now empty Sword Sect rumbled. It shrank and within a few seconds entered the Sect Master's sheath.
"Let's go." He said, his voice reaching everyone of the Sword Sect.
The flying swords of everyone in the sect suddenly glowed. They seemed to be connected by nearly invisible lines. As the sect master moved at an incredible speed, so did all of the other flying swords.
This was the reason that flying swords were the main method of transportation in the Sword Sect.
Zhu Yi could not comprehend his current speed on the Sect Masters sword, but he had gotten used to this.
Before he knew it, every member of the Sword Sect was in a large field. Similarly flying were other people away from the sword sect. There were many different colors and designs, but four colors stood out the most. Red, brown, blue, and green.
While all the other sects flew below, the members of the Sword Sect and the four elemental sects stood the highest.
Although the Sword Sect was not the only universal sect that had branches all around, only the sword sect had a branch in the four element gathering world.
There was no conversation at all in the surroundings. Everyone was silently waiting. Zhu Yi felt many gazes from both the Sword Sect and the other sects.
Still, nobody talked. After an entire day of waiting, the Sect master, the leaders of the four elemental sect, and a few others looked up.
"You're on your own. Elder Chit will make sure that you get your five at a time." The Sect Master said.
He flew up, leaving his flying sword behind. At the same time, a few others did as well. A few moments later, more and more people flew up.
In the end, the strongest people left on the planet were those at the void traversing realm.
Then, space cracked and Chaos Beasts began to pour out. Zhu Yi attacked five. Elder Chit was in space fighting and if he could fight five without an issue, then Elder Chit would not need to assist him.
Zhu Yi led five nascent soul realm Chaos Beasts away. The strongest here were soul formation realm Chaos Beasts. The void traversing realm cultivators were here to deal with them.
When they were far enough away from any others, Zhu Yi began to attack. There was no issue at all. Unless he was mobbed by thousands of self-destructing nascent soul realm Chaos Beasts, he would be completely fine. He only limited himself because Zhou Fan needed time to absorb the mist.
Five quickly died, and Zhu Yi meditated to recover. Zhou Fan absorbed the mist.
After five minutes, Zhu Yi saw five more nascent soul realm Chaos Beasts coming towards him, courtesy of Elder Chit.
Zhu Yi attacked and soon killed all five.
This time, as Zhou Fan absorbed the mist, he began to break through a recovery threshold.
Zhu Yi held his hand up. Elder Chit would not send any more. Regardless, he had done his share on the battlefield.
After a brief period of time, Zhu Yi felt a warm feeling.
Zhou Fan spoke. "You now have god rank meridians."
Zhu Yi was overjoyed. Still, he had a question.
"Wouldn't it make sense if God rank meridians were good enough for someone to reach the god realm? Why are they called God rank meridians?"
Zhu Yi's question was not unique. There was an extremely simple answer that all cultivators seemed to overlook.
"The person who named them had no idea what the future realms would be. He simply named the meridians something that sounded better than emperor. God was the next step."
Zhu Yi nodded. "The person who named them must have lived long ago."
"Indeed. He's commonly known as the Origin God. You'll learn about him in the future."
At mention of this, Zhu Yi looked at Zhou Fan. "I still can't tell how strong you were when you were alive. Even the Sect Master could not detect you. How strong were you exactly?"
Zhou Fan wasn't sure how to answer. He hadn't even named the realm he had reached at that time.
"You'll find out about that as well I assume."
When Zhu Yi saw a statue of the Origin God, he would understand. Zhu Yi nodded.
Since Zhou Fan was done, he decided to join the fight once again. More of the mist wouldn't hurt.
Since Elder Chit was no longer paying attention to him, Zhu Yi went to the main battlefield and attracted five more Nascent soul realm Chaos Beast towards him. After killing them, Zhou Fan absorbed the mist and the fight on the world was over.
In the sky, however, the fight was ongoing. It was hard to see it up there, but Zhu Yi saw flashes of light.
As he watched, someone approached him.
Zhu Yi noticed a person approaching and looked over. The person coming seemed young, but based on his cultivation level he was far from it.
"You are Zhu Yi, correct? The Sect Master's student from a lower world?"
Zhu Yi nodded. "I am. Are you here to fight?"
The person once again nodded. "I am the strongest soul formation realm cultivator of the Heavenly Phoenix sect's sword sect disciples.
Zhu Yi had been able to tell he was part of the Heavenly Phoenix sect just from his clothes
"Can you fight a soul formation realm Chaos Beast alone?" Zhu Yi asked.
The person in front of him was clearly at the tenth level of the soul formation realm.
"Not quite." The person said, shaking his head.
Zhu Yi agreed. "In that case, I'm willing. I've never fought someone from one of the four sects."
Zhu Yi pulled out his sword, as did the person across from him. There was no need for any sort of official duel. One just had to beat the other up.
Fire wrapped around his opponent's sword as he slashed upward. A wave of fire Qi shot towards Zhu Yi. As someone both from this higher world and at the tenth level of soul formation realm, Zhu Yi would struggle to win. He decided to make a statement here in order to avoid more difficult fights in the future.
Instant completion. Since every powerful person was currently fighting, there was no need for Zhu Yi to hide it at all. Even if it was found out he was using time Qi, he was the Sect Masters student. Even in the absolute worst case scenario, he would probably be taken to the world tree and examined by someone more powerful. Perhaps that person would even be able to see and recognize his master.
Zhu Yi instantly appeared behind his opponent and used a powerful sword wave. His opponent was not even able to react. It was as if he had teleported.
He was hit in the back and sent flying. The duel was over. Zhu Yi could have easily killed him there, but obviously didn't.
The person was shocked beyond words. He eventually got up and walked away without saying anything. Even if he knew it was going to happen, he didn't have any confidence in winning. Nobody challenged Zhu Yi after seeing the result of the previous battle.
Zhu Yi simply waited for the fight up there to be over.
As a year passed, cultivators slowly returned. First was the space shattering realm cultivators. Elder Chit came down at this time.
He set up a much larger camp for the Sword Sect disciples. He also heard of Zhu Yi's victory in the duel and gave him a thumbs up.
After the space shattering realm cultivators were the lesser dao creation realm cultivators. Much less people came down, but with everyone combined there were a good few. Zhu Yi saw High Elder Jue descend at this time. He nodded in Zhu Yi's direction.
Finally, at the end of the year, the sect master and the other inner world realm cultivators returned. Although none had any injuries, it was only because they healed fast. They were all clearly exhausted.
The sword sect finally returned to the sect. The sect master's sword was once again used as the base of it all.
Zhu Yi returned to his cultivation room and began cultivating within the time bubble once again.
Now with god rank meridians, he was countless times faster. After 125 years within the time bubble and only 12.5 outside, Zhu Yi reached the 3rd level of the soul formation realm.
10,000 years passed within the time bubble. Almost exactly as Zhu Yi broke into the 8th level of the soul formation realm, it was time to fight Chaos Beasts again.
This time, Zhu Yi decided to go big. He would attempt to fight a Soul Formation realm Chaos beast.
Luckily for him, the thousand years it took for Chaos Beasts to come was merely an estimate. This time, they took around 1001 years, giving Zhu Yi enough time to become even stronger.
Zhu Yi met with the sect master. This time, the sect master seemed to be pleased with his cultivation speed. It was unknown what the sect master was thinking. Zhu Yi was not exactly as fast as the maximum cultivation speed when using the time bubble, but it was a great improvement from before.
The Sect Master's thoughts were unknown, but he seemed to believe in Zhu Yi a bit.
The same scene as before appeared. Zhu Yi rode with the Sect Master to the predicted battlefield. Zhu Yi still had no idea how they predicted the location.
He was so curious that he asked. "How does everyone get information on the location of Chaos Beasts?"
Even in his birth world, they had been able to predict it.
"It's all information from the World Tree. Even I'm not sure how it's done. They give out information to every single world that suffers from the attacks of Chaos Beasts."
Zhu Yi understood. It was probably some sort of special method. It didn't matter to him anyway. He was only curious.
As they flew towards the battlefield, the Sect Master turned to Zhu Yi. "Are you one hundred percent sure you want to do this? Fighting a soul formation realm Chaos Beast on the same level is extremely rare even in our world."
Zhu Yi nodded. "I'm sure. If I can't do it now, then I'll never be able to do it."
The Sect Master agreed and let him fight a soul formation realm Chaos Beast. They waited in the air once again. Around them were familiar faces.
After waiting for a month, the sect master looked up. "Take care of yourself. Don't die."
Along with some others, he flew up. As time passed, more and more people flew into space. When the strongest people left on the world were void traversing realm cultivators, space broke.
