I Can Traverse Multiple Worlds

’It really did activate a new function.’

Wang Xiao’s eyes twitched as he processed the information from the Book of Space-Time in his mind.

He had already refined two Curiosities in the Real World, and he had just acquired three more.

If five Curiosities still weren’t enough to make the Book of Space-Time activate a new ability, then the activation conditions would have been far too demanding.

In an instant, Wang Xiao had fully processed the information about this new function.

His eyes immediately lit up.

The new function was the exact opposite of his previous ability, "A Single Prize from Three Thousand."

That ability allowed him to choose one item from a Crossing World and bring it back to the Real World.

The new one, "Otherworldly Beckoning," did the opposite, allowing him to summon an item belonging to his real body into the Crossing World.

However, it seemed he could only use it once and summon a single item.

The only good news was that he could choose which item to summon.

’Which item should I choose?!’

Wang Xiao currently had three options to choose from.

The Celestial Destiny Sword, the Celestial Observation Cauldron, and the Chaos Cyan Lotus.

Of the three, the Celestial Destiny Sword was the lowest in grade.

Back in the Real World, even after he had reforged it with several Curiosities, the Celestial Destiny Sword had only barely managed to ascend to the ranks of top-tier Curiosities.

It was still a long way from being considered a Marvel.

Besides, Wang Xiao wasn’t lacking for offensive methods at the moment, so the Celestial Destiny Sword was the first to be eliminated.

That left a choice between the Celestial Observation Cauldron and the Chaos Cyan Lotus.

The Cauldron was suited for both offense and defense; not only could it be used to suppress enemies, but it could also seal off the area to protect him.

More importantly, it could absorb Cosmic Spiritual Material to expand his Grotto Heaven.

This would allow Wang Xiao to break through to become a Tier Eight Life more quickly.

The Lotus, on the other hand, could maximally increase the power of his physical body and his Great Daoist Nascent Soul.

It could also increase the number of his Rule Runes.

It would be very useful once Wang Xiao cultivated to the level of a Tier Eight Life.

’Forget it. I’ll just choose the Chaos Cyan Lotus. After all, in this world, there are plenty of Heavenly and Earthly Treasures that can help me break through to become a Tier Eight Life!’

’Besides, I still haven’t completely figured out the effects of the Chaos Cyan Lotus’s later seeds. If I manage to break through to become a Tier Ten Life, I might finally learn what those later Lotus Seeds can do.’

’I can treat it as an experiment. In any case, I don’t need to cultivate this body to the absolute peak of every tier. As long as I can reach the level of a Tier Ten Life, that’s good enough!’

Wang Xiao quickly made his decision.

The Chaos Cyan Lotus had nine colors of Lotus Seeds in total: gray, white, red, yellow, green, cyan, blue, gold, and purple.

He had previously only absorbed the Lotus Seeds of three colors—gray, white, and red—which allowed his physical body and Great Daoist Nascent Soul to both reach their limits.

That was how his Grotto Heaven had reached its maximum size of one hundred light-years.

The next in the sequence, the Yellow Lotus Seed, could be used by a Tier Eight Life to increase their number of Rule Runes.

However, in the Real World, Wang Xiao had only cultivated to the first step of Tier Eight, the Mysterious Rune.

He had not yet reached the second step: the Rune Heaven and Earth.

This second step was all about increasing the number of one’s Rule Runes.

Therefore, Wang Xiao had not yet consumed the Yellow Lotus Seed.

And in order to unlock the Lotus Seeds of the subsequent colors, he first had to completely refine and absorb all of the Yellow Lotus Seeds.

"When will we be departing for the Royal City?"

Wang Xiao didn’t summon the Chaos Cyan Lotus right away.

The reason was that summoning an otherworldly object would cause a certain degree of disturbance.

Wang Xiao needed to make preparations in advance, and he certainly couldn’t summon it right in front of Li Tianhe.

Li Tianhe thought for a moment, then said:

"I used the Cross-Domain Teleportation Array to get to Dongli City this time. The array consumes a great deal of energy, so to activate it again, we’ll have to wait at least another month."

Wang Xiao nodded:

"Alright. I’ll stay here for the time being. Just contact me when it’s time to go to the Imperial City."

Li Tianhe said:

"Of course."

He paused, then looked to Yuwen Hai at his side.

"City Lord Yuwen, please take good care of Brother Wang during this time."

Yuwen Hai clearly held Li Tianhe in high regard and quickly replied:

"Your Highness, rest assured. As long as Brother Wang stays here, I will do my best to satisfy his every request."

Li Tianhe nodded slightly and turned to Wang Xiao.

"Brother Wang, I have some other matters to attend to, so I won’t disturb you any further. I’ll see you in a month."

Without another word, he turned and led Yuwen Hai slowly out of the courtyard.

’This man is certainly bold!’

Wang Xiao watched Li Tianhe leave, his eyes glinting.

To be able to produce three Curiosities at once... not even a Tier Nine Life would necessarily be so generous.

It was clear that this Li Tianhe was a man destined for great things!

No wonder he would one day quell the internal rebellion and become the Emperor of the Great Li Dynasty.

He even managed to temporarily hold off the offensive from the other Three Continents.

’However, for him to be so generous, it must mean his current situation isn’t so good.’

’The Jade Emperor doesn’t have much time left, and Li Tianhe isn’t the only Prince. When the time comes, the fight for the throne will surely be intense.’

’Normally, with his power and influence, inheriting the throne should have been a foregone conclusion. The fact that he’s paying such a high price to win me over must mean the Jade Emperor doesn’t necessarily plan to pass the throne to him!’

Wang Xiao mused.

This Li Tianhe controlled the entire City Defense Army of the Great Li Dynasty, as well as more than half of the Underworld.

His power and influence could be described as monstrous!

Even without recruiting him, Li Tianhe’s succession to the throne should not have been an issue.

Unless... he felt threatened.

And the only one who could pose a threat to him was the Jade Emperor himself.

’The imperial family is the most heartless of all, heh. Once you’re born into the Royal Family, you can forget about familial affection, especially in a great age of Cultivation like this.’
