I Can Traverse Multiple Worlds

Wang Xiao flipped his palm, and the Chaos Cyan Lotus appeared in his hand.

The Chaos Cyan Lotus was just as before, emitting a faint cyan glow.

However, ever since it was enveloped by the golden light of the Book of Space-Time, the Chaos Cyan Lotus had stopped secretly distorting Wang Xiao’s Self-Enlightenment Light.

At this moment, the Chaos Cyan Lotus still bore nine Lotus Seeds: gray, white, red, yellow, green, cyan, blue, gold, and purple.

However, only the Gray Lotus Seed was in a solid, physical state.

The other Lotus Seeds, though visible, appeared illusory, as if separated from this Heaven and Earth by an infinite expanse of space and time.

Wang Xiao knew that only after he had completely refined and absorbed this Gray Lotus Seed would the next one manifest.

’Time to test the effects of this Gray Lotus Seed.’

Wang Xiao plucked the Gray Lotus Seed from the Chaos Cyan Lotus and, without a moment’s hesitation, swallowed it.

RUMBLE—

In that instant, Wang Xiao felt a muffled thunderclap, like the one that split Heaven and Earth at the dawn of creation, reverberate through his physical body and Great Daoist Nascent Soul!

A power that surpassed the Origin Great Dao suddenly surged forth from his physical body and Great Daoist Nascent Soul.

In a flash, Wang Xiao felt the cells throughout his body rapidly multiplying and proliferating!

His blood grew thicker, and his meridians, bones, organs—every structure related to his cells—were all strengthening at a visible rate!

At the same time, the thoughts that composed his Great Daoist Nascent Soul were also growing wildly, causing his Divine Thought to expand infinitely and his Great Daoist Nascent Soul to become more and more condensed!

In the blink of an eye, Wang Xiao felt that his physical body and Great Daoist Nascent Soul had doubled in power from their post-Cutting the Three Corpses base!

’It seems this isn’t the limit yet!’

Wang Xiao’s gaze couldn’t help but fall back on the Chaos Cyan Lotus.

He saw the Gray Lotus Seed had appeared on it once again.

A glint appeared in Wang Xiao’s eyes, and he couldn’t help but swallow the Gray Lotus Seed again.

Immediately, his physical body and Great Daoist Nascent Soul once again ignored all shackles and rapidly strengthened.

It took a full hour before the process finally stopped.

’Another boost equal to my original strength. Compared to my initial base, my power has now tripled!’

Seeing the Gray Lotus Seed manifest yet again, Wang Xiao’s eyes gleamed as he plucked it and swallowed it.

「Seven days later.」

BOOM!

Accompanied by a sound that shook the entire heavens, Wang Xiao suddenly opened his eyes.

He stomped his foot lightly, and the entire ground caved in with a roar, revealing the magma beneath.

With a wave of his hand, he tore Space asunder, revealing a spatial fissure that stretched for a hundred li!

And this spatial fissure could no longer heal itself through the natural restorative power of Heaven and Earth.

It was a permanent spatial fissure!

Only life forms at Tier Eight or above could create a permanent spatial fissure.

And yet, right now, Wang Xiao had achieved it with a casual wave of his hand.

’Immortal Objects are truly worthy of their name. The effects are simply insane! No wonder even Tier Twelve Supreme Life forms would be tempted by it!’

Wang Xiao’s eyes lit up.

In these seven days, he had refined and absorbed a total of three Lotus Seeds: gray, white, and red.

These three Lotus Seeds mainly targeted his physical body and Great Daoist Nascent Soul.

Right now, Wang Xiao’s physical body and Great Daoist Nascent Soul had increased by a full nine times their original base strength!

With the current state of his physical body and Great Daoist Nascent Soul, if he were to face Celestial Emperor Ji Chengdao again, he could probably crush him to death without even using his Domain!

’The fourth one, the Yellow Lotus Seed, has also manifested, but I can’t use it yet.’

Wang Xiao already knew the purpose of the Yellow Lotus Seed: it could be used to increase the number of his Rule Runes.

He would only be able to use it when he broke through Tier Eight and was advancing to Tier Nine!

To advance to Tier Nine, the first step was Mysterious Condensation Patterns: one had to comprehend the mysteries of the Great Dao Rules and infuse them into Blank Runes to form Rule Runes.

The second step was Rune Heaven and Earth: making the Rule Rune within each cell constantly derive and multiply, eventually forming a Heaven and Earth akin to a Grotto Heaven.

The more Rule Runes one had, the stronger the resulting Heaven and Earth would be!

With the help of this Yellow Lotus Seed, Wang Xiao would be able to reach the limit in this step as well!

’Right now, my physical body and Great Daoist Nascent Soul can’t be strengthened any further. Forgetting the entire Cosmos, just within the starry sky of the Celestial Universe Star Domain, there’s probably not a single Tier Seven Life stronger than me.’

’I doubt even any of those Tier Twelve Supreme Life forms have ever reached this stage!’

’It’s time to break through to Tier Eight Life in my strongest possible state!’

Wang Xiao knew that the first step to breaking through to Tier Eight Life was Inner Strength.

This meant strengthening one’s Grotto Heaven to its absolute limit.

In the region of space containing the Celestial Universe Star Domain, according to the classifications of those Supreme Life forms, a Grotto Heaven of one light-year was the limit!

Obviously, with Wang Xiao’s current foundation, he would far exceed this area.

As for how far he could go, Wang Xiao was also looking forward to finding out!

’However, pushing the Grotto Heaven to its limit isn’t just a test of the physical body and Great Daoist Nascent Soul. It also requires absorbing Cosmic Spiritual Material, and for the planetary consciousness to be strong enough!’

Now, he had the Marvel, the Celestial Observation Cauldron, which could rapidly absorb Cosmic Spiritual Material and convert it for his own use.

He didn’t have to worry about that part.

The only question was the planetary consciousness—what was the maximum Grotto Heaven area it could control!

’My planetary consciousness is the refined Earth. As the place where the Meteor fell, Earth is the core of this entire starry sky.’

’The planetary consciousness born from it should be exceptionally powerful!’

Wang Xiao didn’t dwell on it.

His Grotto Heaven was currently 100 million li in area, a world of difference from the limit of one light-year.

First, he had to reach the one-light-year limit!

Wang Xiao’s figure flickered. He tore through the void and, in what felt like an instant, arrived outside Heaven and Earth.

The vast, empty cosmos was silent and desolate.

Only a single, colossal planet spanning several dozen light-years could be seen orbiting in the distance.

Wang Xiao took the Celestial Observation Cauldron out of his Grotto Heaven and activated it!

BUZZ!

In an instant, the Celestial Observation Cauldron emitted a brilliant radiance, transforming into a vortex that drew in all the Cosmic Spiritual Material from hundreds, even thousands of light-years around, and refined it within the cauldron!

This Cosmic Spiritual Material wasn’t a single substance but contained countless types of energy.

Refining the specific energy suitable for oneself and then converting it into power to nourish the Grotto Heaven was an extremely troublesome process!

For an ordinary Tier Seven Life, unless they possessed some kind of Exotic Treasure, this step alone would often take an immense amount of time relying only on Cosmic Spiritual Material.

However, with the Celestial Observation Cauldron, this step was exceedingly easy for Wang Xiao.

Under the cauldron’s refining power, the Cosmic Spiritual Material was all converted into Spiritual Material that Wang Xiao could directly absorb.

Without hesitation, Wang Xiao channeled all of the refined Spiritual Material into his Grotto Heaven.

WHOOSH—

The Spiritual Material was like a spiritual rain, crazily nourishing the Grotto Heaven!

Nourished by the Spiritual Material, Wang Xiao’s Grotto Heaven also began to grow at a visible rate.

From 100 million li, it instantly grew to 200 million li, and then to a billion li!

「A year later.」

Wang Xiao’s Grotto Heaven had reached the limit of one light-year!

’I can feel it. This is far from the limit. And surprisingly, the planetary consciousness is actually able to keep up with the Grotto Heaven’s expansion speed.’

A flicker of understanding crossed Wang Xiao’s eyes.

He had discovered that as his Grotto Heaven expanded, the planetary consciousness was also evolving right along with it.

It was as if the planetary consciousness could become as large as the Grotto Heaven itself.

’This must be the special property of being the core of the starry sky!’

Wang Xiao had originally thought that if the planetary consciousness couldn’t keep up with his Grotto Heaven’s expansion, he would have no choice but to go and refine a new one.

After all, he had previously left a Life Seed containing the main body of the Meteor with Xu Muying.

It was precisely to prevent this kind of situation.

Now, it seemed he wouldn’t need it.

’Now, let’s see just where the true limit of my Grotto Heaven lies!’

Wang Xiao urged the Celestial Observation Cauldron on, continuing to refine Cosmic Spiritual Material.

The Cosmic Spiritual Material seemed to be in constant flow.

Once it was depleted in one area, it would soon be replenished from other places.

Therefore, as long as one could find compatible Cosmic Spiritual Material, there was no need to worry about it running out!

Just like that, fifty years passed in a flash!

「Deep in the starry sky.」

RUMBLE!

An unimaginably immense sound spread madly in all directions.

Endless ripples in deep space suddenly billowed outward.

Cosmic dust that came into contact with these ripples was instantly annihilated!

Wang Xiao sat cross-legged in the starry sky, a boundless power raging around him.

It tore the very fabric of space apart!

However, the Space in the starry sky seemed to be different from the Space within a planet.

It was separated by layer after layer of Space Layers.

Thus, even if the starry sky was torn, it couldn’t form a permanent spatial fissure.

It would quickly heal back to its original state.

At a certain moment, Wang Xiao suddenly opened his eyes. He felt the Grotto Heaven within him and let out a soft sigh.

’One hundred light-years... I’ve reached the limit!’

For over fifty years, Wang Xiao had been constantly expanding the area of his Grotto Heaven.

The further he went, the more difficult it became to expand the Grotto Heaven.

After it reached an area of one hundred light-years, Wang Xiao felt as if he had touched the very ceiling of the starry sky!

No amount of further expansion had any effect.

This was the true limit!

’A one-hundred-light-year Extreme Grotto Heaven... It’s truly unimaginable. It would be nearly impossible for anyone else to achieve this.’

Wang Xiao breathed a sigh of relief.

He had only reached this step thanks to a multitude of opportunities, such as the Celestial Observation Cauldron, the Chaos Cyan Lotus, and the Cutting the Three Corpses Technique.

Others would probably have to spend tens of thousands, or even tens of millions of years just to refine Cosmic Spiritual Material and nourish their Grotto Heaven.

Wang Xiao felt that with his current power as a Tier Seven Life, he could probably contend with Tier Nine Mutant Beasts.

He would no longer be as helpless as he was before.

This was a monumental leap!

’I’m afraid that across countless starry skies, it would be difficult to find a Tier Seven Life stronger than me.’

’Since I’ve reached the limit, I should seize this momentum and break through to Tier Eight Life!’

Wang Xiao connected with the Book of Space-Time and returned to the Real World once more.

Before breaking through to Tier Eight Life, he still had to complete the final step of Cutting the Three Corpses: Slaying the True Self Worm.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to withstand the Void Transformation step!

Following the method of the Cutting the Three Corpses Technique, Wang Xiao found the place where countless strands of Self-Enlightenment Light converged, and then merged his own Self-Enlightenment Light into it.

「Six months later.」

BOOM!

The entire Earth shuddered violently.

The sound was like the one made when Heaven and Earth first split apart.

It echoed endlessly through the starry sky!

’I’ve finally cultivated back to Tier Eight Life!’

Wang Xiao clenched his fists, feeling an endless torrent of power surging forth.

Breaking through to Tier Eight Life with a one-hundred-light-year Extreme Grotto Heaven!

Looking across the countless starry skies of the Cosmos, there was probably no one stronger than him!
