I Can Traverse Multiple Worlds

Wang Xiao felt the changes in his body, an endless stream of emotions welling up within him.

Six world crossings, spanning several millennia.

He had finally broken through to become a Tier Eight Life with an Extreme Grotto Heaven of one hundred light-years.

Compared to breaking through to a Tier Eight Life with a one-light-year Grotto Heaven, he was more than a hundred times stronger!

After all—

Heaven Shattering and Void Transformation were both processes for converting one’s Grotto Heaven into Blank Runes and integrating them into every cell.

The larger the Grotto Heaven, the more powerful the Blank Runes. Naturally, the resulting strength upon breaking through to a Tier Eight Life would be greater.

For two Tier Seven Lives, a difference of ten thousand li in their Grotto Heaven area was already a world of difference.

Let alone a difference measured in light-years.

It was simply immeasurable!

’With my current power, I could probably destroy the entire Solar System in an instant!’

’No wonder those Tier Nine Lives set up a Protective Barrier outside the Solar System before.’

’Once you reach Tier Eight Life, your attack range is measured in light-years at a minimum.’

Wang Xiao sighed to himself.

However, he also discovered that the space in the starry sky seemed different from the space within a planet.

The space within a planet had only one layer.

If it were torn by a powerful force, it would leave behind a permanent spatial rift.

But when the space in the starry sky was torn, there seemed to be layer after layer of space within.

These layers could quickly mend the rift.

Therefore, the healing ability of the starry sky was thousands, even tens of thousands of times stronger than that of a planet.

Even a Tier Nine Life, it seemed, could not leave a permanent spatial rift in the starry sky.

’Before, I learned from the memories of those Divine-Demons that barriers exist between starry skies. To break through a starry sky barrier and travel from one to another, one must at least be able to leave a permanent spatial rift in the void.’

’That’s the level of a Tier Eleven Life!’

After breaking through to Tier Eight Life, Wang Xiao gained a deeper understanding of the fundamental nature of the Cosmos.

However, he didn’t dwell on it for long.

For now, the priority was to break through to Tier Nine Life.

By then, he would be able to choose a High-level Starry Sky to cross into.

A High-level Starry Sky was one that contained beings up to Tier Ten Life at its peak.

’But I’ve been in the Real World for over half a year, and the Book of Space-Time still hasn’t prompted a crossing. It seems the interval between crossings will grow longer as my Life Tier increases.’

Wang Xiao checked the Book of Space-Time and found no information about an impending crossing.

He wasn’t surprised.

After all—

A single crossing required breaking through an unknown number of starry sky barriers.

This was a significant burden for the Book of Space-Time.

Before, when Wang Xiao’s Life Tier was lower, the energy consumption wasn’t too great, so the intervals between crossings were shorter.

Now, he had already broken through to Tier Eight Life.

Moreover, he was likely even stronger than an ordinary Tier Nine Life.

The energy consumption would have increased dramatically, so the intervals between crossings would naturally be longer.

’Perhaps if I let the Book of Space-Time refine the Celestial Observation Cauldron, it could accumulate energy faster and effectively shorten the intervals between crossings.’

’But it would be a real shame to let the Book of Space-Time refine such a Marvel. I’ll wait until I break through to Tier Nine Life before deciding.’

Wang Xiao shook his head, abandoning the idea.

He no longer faced any threats in this starry sky, so there was no urgent need to cross over.

Waiting for the Book of Space-Time to slowly accumulate energy would work just as well.

After all—

The Celestial Observation Cauldron could do more than just refine Cosmic Spiritual Material.

It could also seal a starry sky and break its barrier.

In other words, if Wang Xiao could reach the edge of this starry sky now, he could enter another one with the help of the Celestial Observation Cauldron.

Of course, this would undoubtedly consume an immense amount of energy!

To fully activate the Celestial Observation Cauldron, one would need to be at least a Tier Nine Life, or perhaps even a Tier Ten Life.

’I should let Gu Tiandu and the other Tier Nine Lives know that I’ve reached Tier Eight Life. Maybe I can even spar with them a bit.’

A flicker of movement crossed Wang Xiao’s eyes.

His current assessment of his strength was just an estimate based on past experience.

Whether he could fight—or even defeat—a Tier Nine Life was something he would only know after a real battle!

Without further hesitation, Wang Xiao took a step and instantly arrived at the edge of the Solar System.

There, surrounding the Solar System from all directions, sat figures cross-legged in meditation.

Each of these figures radiated immense waves of energy.

The energy within their bodies connected, forming what seemed like a vast, indestructible net that completely enveloped the entire Solar System.

"Wang Xiao, what are you doing here?!"

Among them, Yuan Fanlang, the founder of the Celestial Dao, was the first to notice Wang Xiao and call out.

The other Tier Nine Lives standing guard outside the Solar System also turned their gazes toward Wang Xiao.

Some of them had only heard Wang Xiao’s name but had never actually seen him.

At this moment, seeing Wang Xiao approach, they couldn’t help but show their curiosity.

"So you’re Wang Xiao. What a powerful energy signature!"

"Your body and soul have merged... have you broken through to Tier Eight Life?!"

"It’s been less than a year since you reached Tier Seven Life, right? And you’ve already broken through to Tier Eight? You truly are a heaven-sent genius!"

The group of Tier Nine Lives naturally sensed Wang Xiao’s state and couldn’t help but reveal their shock and disbelief.

One must understand, it had taken them considerable effort to break through to Tier Eight Life back then.

Nearly all of them had only managed to break through after finding a Marvel!

Otherwise, even with thousands or tens of thousands of years, they might never have reached Tier Eight.

Moreover, their Divine Souls weren’t particularly strong, so the difficulty of merging body and soul to construct their cellular worlds wasn’t too high.

Their breakthroughs were naturally easier.

However, they knew that Wang Xiao had comprehended the Nine Great Origin Paths and had refined his Divine Soul to the absolute limit.

For a Divine Soul of that caliber, the difficulty of breaking through to Tier Eight would be ten, even a hundred times greater than it was for them.

Yet now, Wang Xiao had done it in less than a year.

It truly left them speechless with shock!

Wang Xiao didn’t try to hide it.

"With the help of Elder Gu and the others, I was fortunate enough to break through to Tier Eight Life."

Yuan Fanlang couldn’t help but shake his head and laugh.

"If you call your breakthrough ’fortunate,’ then what does that make the rest of us?"

The others quickly chimed in with agreement.

"Tsk tsk, looks like it won’t be long before Gu Tiandu’s position as number one in this starry sky is in jeopardy."

"I never thought a peerless genius like this could appear in our starry sky."

"I bet it won’t be long before you break through to Tier Nine Life, Wang Xiao. When that time comes, it’ll be doomsday for those Tier Nine Mutant Beasts!"

Wang Xiao said,

"I have a rough idea of how to break through to Tier Nine Life."

"I came here today to test what I have learned and ask for some pointers from you, my elders."

Hearing this, Yuan Fanlang’s eyes lit up.

"It seems you’re quite confident in yourself. You’ve just broken through to Tier Eight and you’re already eager to spar with us."

Wang Xiao replied,

"Allowing these Tier Nine Mutant Beasts to roam the starry sky is a constant threat to humanity. I want to see what level I need to reach to completely eliminate them."

Yuan Fanlang smiled faintly.

"Good. With such determination, you haven’t disappointed our expectations."

"If you want to spar, I will be your opponent. I’m also curious to see the true strength of a Tier Eight Life who broke through after Refining a Living Star."

After a pause, he looked at the other Tier Nine Lives.

"Everyone, activate the Barrier. We can’t let our fight affect the Solar System’s operations."

The other Tier Nine Lives formed Seals with their hands, and infinite runes seemed to flow around their bodies.

In an instant, the entire Solar System was enveloped in a curtain of light.

Countless runes flowed across its surface.

Each rune radiated enough power to annihilate a planet.

’Even I couldn’t shake the power emanating from this Barrier.’

A flicker of movement crossed Wang Xiao’s eyes.

He had a general idea now. Although the foundations of these Tier Nine Lives were lacking and their strength wasn’t considered top-tier among their kind, they could still exert power beyond their individual limits by relying on external forces.

"Please, Elder, grant me your guidance!"

Within Wang Xiao’s body, the infinite Blank Runes began to vibrate violently.

A vast and majestic Star Power surged forth, crushing the starry sky for tens of millions of li in every direction.

"Hm? Your power is indeed incredible."

A flicker of movement crossed Yuan Fanlang’s eyes as endless runes swirled around him.

These runes emanated a vast, boundless magnetic force!

He thrust a hand upward, and the entire starry sky suddenly roared. Layer after layer of space, like the heavens themselves collapsing, came crashing down on Wang Xiao!

’So this is how a Tier Nine Life attacks.’

Seeing this, a flash of understanding appeared in Wang Xiao’s eyes.

A Tier Nine Life uses their own power to trigger a Starry Sky Resonance.

Then, they manipulate the Space Layers within the starry sky to crush their enemies.

This is combined with the mysteries of their own Great Dao to form various attack methods.

’But Yuan Fanlang is only manipulating a thousand Space Layers. I can break through that completely!’

Wang Xiao had already tested it.

With a single, full-power strike, he could break through at least ten thousand layers of space!

Without further hesitation, the Blank Runes in his body vibrated continuously, and an unparalleled power surged forth.

BOOM!

An explosion that shook the starry sky suddenly erupted.

It was as if the very Stars were about to be shaken from their positions.

The next moment, the Space Layers manipulated by Yuan Fanlang were instantly crushed.

The magnetic cage he had deployed was also shattered in an instant, ceasing to exist.

A boundless power, like a monstrous flood, surged out and sent Yuan Fanlang flying tens of thousands of li away!

"This...?!"

The Heaven and Earth within Yuan Fanlang’s body churned like a tide, and a look of utter disbelief appeared in his eyes.

’The Space Layers I manipulated were broken so easily?’

’Is this really a Tier Eight Life?!’

He took a step forward, looking at Wang Xiao with a complicated expression.

"Incredible... simply incredible. Your current strength can already match... no, it has surpassed ours. If we don’t use our Marvels and other treasures, I’m afraid we’re no match for you."

The other Tier Nine Lives had, of course, also witnessed Wang Xiao’s attack.

A tempest of shock raged in their hearts.

They had assumed that, at the very most, Wang Xiao would only be able to block Yuan Fanlang’s attack.

It was impossible that he could actually defeat him.

After all—

there was a whole Great Realm separating them.

Even if Wang Xiao had comprehended the Nine Great Origins, it should have been difficult to bridge such a gap.

However, they were discovering that they had severely underestimated Wang Xiao!

Not only did Wang Xiao block Yuan Fanlang’s attack, but he even defeated him in an instant.

Not even Gu Tiandu could achieve something like this!

"Tsk, tsk, tsk. It seems my position as number one in the starry sky will have to be relinquished."

Just as everyone was reeling in shock, Gu Tiandu slowly stepped out of the Void.

He looked at Wang Xiao and sighed with emotion.

"Wang Xiao, your progress is truly astonishing."

"It seems this fortuitous opportunity was meant for you to obtain."

"A fortuitous opportunity?!"

Wang Xiao’s eyes flickered.
