Yuan's Ascension

Chapter 347: One World, One Heir (2)

"However, should one advance to the Void Refiner phase, they are granted an extension and allowed to continue their cultivation within the sect. Naturally, they must still heed the sect's call for field trials or guard duties."

Wu Yuan and Fei Lang nodded in understanding.

Most new recruits of the sect started as outer disciples, while Amethyst Cradle cultivators were all inner disciples.

While the Golden Core phase granted a 1000-year lifespan, an Amethyst Cradle cultivator enjoyed three times that. One could not expect to reside within the sect's headquarters until they died of old age without achieving any breakthroughs.

Not long later, Earth Immortal Xiang Sheng spoke abruptly, "All inner disciples, you’ve reached your destination."

The flying boat had landed in a grand immortal city, surrounded by numerous floating mountains. These mountains were evidently of superior build, each one larger than those in the outer cities, and fewer in number overall.

The hatch of the flying boat opened once more. As the disciples disembarked, they were greeted by Void Refiner cultivators from the city.

Before departing, Fei Lang transmitted his voice to Wu Yuan, "Li Xia, I will work hard. One day, I’ll make it to Dragon Star and challenge you once more."

Wu Yuan replied with a smile, "I’ll be waiting."

After interacting with him for a day, Wu Yuan came to see that Fei Lang was not malevolent, merely prideful.

After bidding farewell to the inner and hereditary disciples, the two Void Refiner cultivators paid their respects to Earth Immortal Xiang Sheng before leaving the flying boat as well.

Earth Immortal Xiang Sheng turned his attention to Li Xia and Kuang Long. "Li Xia, Kuang Long, only the two of you are left. Now, we will head for Dragon Star."

As the hatch closed, the flying boat sped off into the sky.

In reality, the headquarters of the Dragon Star Immortal Sect was a fortress of unparalleled security, shielded by an intricate network of powerful defense arrays. A thick, mystical fog perpetually shrouded the area, obscuring vision and severely limiting visibility.

Over countless years, the sect had meticulously bolstered its defenses with additional layers of complex arrays, each one adding a new level of protection. This continuous enhancement resulted in a nearly flawless fortification, rendering the sect's headquarters an impregnable stronghold against any potential threats.

Whoosh! Racing through the sky, the purple flying boat pierced through the dense layers of fog. After crossing a vast distance, it finally slowed to a stop.

"We are nearing our destination," Earth Immortal Xiang Sheng announced from the main hall of the flying boat, gesturing towards the expanse of space ahead. "Look."

Intrigued, Wu Yuan and Kuang Long turned their gazes in the direction indicated.

“What a massive star," Wu Yuan murmured in awe.

In the distance, a colossal blue planet loomed, shrouded in layers of clouds and fog, its size surpassing even the Redmoon Star in Rising Dragon City.

This celestial body was none other than the legendary Dragon Star of the Dragon Star Immortal Sect, steeped in countless tales throughout the immortal continent.

"The Dragon Star is our sacred star, and the holiest sanctuary of our sect. Its existence represents the eternal glory of our sect, which has a history of hundreds of millions of years," Earth Immortal Xiang Sheng spoke with an expression of reverence.

Hundreds of millions of years was a length of time beyond comprehension for Wu Yuan, whose own existence spanned mere decades.

"Our sect decrees that only immortals may establish residences on Dragon Star," Xiang Sheng continued with a smile, his eyes fixed on Wu Yuan and Kuang Long. "As hereditary disciples, you are the future pillars of our sect, destined for immortalhood."

"Hence, your dwellings shall not be on terrestrial lands or floating mountains, but within the satellite worldlets of the Dragon Star," he revealed.

"Satellite worldlets?" Wu Yuan and Kuang Long echoed in astonishment.

Having read numerous texts, Wu Yuan was familiar with the concept. Coming from a distinguished background, Kuang Long also understood what satellite worldlets were.

There were numerous satellite timespaces under the rule of the Redmoon Immortal Continent. Throughout history, countless worldlets were born in outer space.

However, the notion of Dragon Star ruling over satellite worldlets left them both dumbfounded.

Where are these worldlets? Wu Yuan peered in the direction of Dragon Star. But apart from the fog, he couldn’t see much else.

“These are your identity tokens.” Xiang Sheng produced two shimmering tokens, inscribed with the characters for Dragon Star on one side and a blue-colored star on the other.

"By deciphering these tokens, you will naturally be able to sense a connection with your respective worldlets. At the same time, your status as hereditary disciples of our sect will be solidified," Xiang Sheng explained with a smile. "With this, you shall gain access to the Dragon Star Immortal Realm."

"Only then will you understand the full extent of your privileges, authority, and duties as inheritors of our legacy."

Wu Yuan and Kuang Long reached out and accepted the tokens.

"You may decipher them now," Xiang Sheng instructed.

Normally, the process of deciphering a token was fast, but it took Wu Yuan more than ten breaths to succeed.

Xiang Sheng waited patiently as the information flooded into Wu Yuan's consciousness.

There. Through the token, Wu Yuan’s attention was drawn to several specific spacetime regions surrounding Dragon Star. It looked as though these special regions led to unexplored depths.

One of them stood out to him more than the rest, and Wu Yuan could even vaguely ‘see’ a vast world that existed within that particular region, as well as the countless life forms that inhabited it. At the same time, he could faintly feel an incredibly powerful force enveloping him, instilling a sense of comfort within him.

This should be the power protecting the sect. Wu Yuan deduced, realizing that by deciphering the token, he had gained the approval of the sect's protective force, which now recognized him as a member of the Dragon Star Immortal Sect.

"Do you sense it?" Earth Immortal Xiang Sheng inquired with a smile. "Li Xia, that worldlet you perceive is the residence reserved for you by the sect. Everything within that world belongs to you."

A hereditary disciple has an entire world as their residence? Wu Yuan was taken aback.

Mm? Wu Yuan suddenly felt the presence of other immortal cultivators who had also deciphered similar tokens. They seemed to reside in the worldlets within those special regions.

They were all hereditary disciples of the Dragon Star Immortal Sect!

The moment Wu Yuan sensed their presence, he noticed that the hundreds of hereditary disciples were also made aware of his presence. Immediately, they understood that two new hereditary disciples had arrived.

...

The Dragon Star Immortal Realm was a voidrealm established by the Dragon Star Immortal Sect. While it was not on the level of the Redmoon Immortal Realm, it still had its mystical qualities.

Millions of disciples were active in the Dragon Star Immortal Realm. Unless they were in absolute seclusion, they would leave a trace of consciousness in the voidrealm whether they were cultivating or on expeditions.

At the heart of Greendragon City, the largest metropolis in the Dragon Star Immortal Realm, stood a towering mountain. Its four sheer, massive rock faces appeared as if they had been sculpted by the deft swing of a sword.

Etched into these rock faces were names in shimmering gold, each representing the sect’s top elite disciples, all bearing the revered title of Heir.

Suddenly, the Heir Cliff blazed with a brilliant light. As the radiance faded, two new names emerged on the cliff—Li Xia and Kuang Long.

"Who is Li Xia?"

"A new hereditary disciple? Two in succession."

"I haven't seen them before. They must be newcomers.”

"They were directly admitted as hereditary disciples?" The million disciples of the Dragon Star Immortal Sect in Greendragon City immediately learned the news.
