Chapter 459: World Core

Hearing Wang Mu's words, Han Li scratched the back of his head in embarrassment.

"I have heard everything. That day when the Absolute Beginning Holy Land and the Saint Advent Society invaded, I should have joined forces with the Young Lord to resist the enemy, but…" His face showed a hint of self-reproach.

Wang Mu waved his hand dismissively: "Enough, no one blames you! Tell me, what happened to you in the past six months?"

Upon hearing this, Han Li's eyes lit up, and he described it vividly.

Half a year ago, one day, he was chasing a spiritual Heaven And Earth Treasure on the seabed when he accidentally entered a deep-sea vortex.

The vortex was extremely mysterious and contained immense power. At that time, he was completely unable to break free and was sucked in. It wasn't until he woke up again that he realized he was in a sea of Void Realm.

That sea area was as if isolated from the North Sea.

The Spiritual Qi was abundant to the extreme.

Even the Northern Dark Holy Land could not compare to it, and it nurtured a large number of rare treasures and sacred medicines that were hard to see in the outside world.

Most importantly, there seemed to be some connection to the outside world there.

Han Li studied the Void Realm Dao there.

He would often wander beyond the heavens, and his consciousness would appear in other regions of the Cangyuan Realm, which was quite magical.

"The Void Realm there was extremely strange. I tried my best but couldn't leave, so I could only stay there for cultivation. It wasn't until I comprehended the Tai Xu Dragon Emperor Sutra to Major Achievement that I finally managed to break out of it!" Han Li explained.

Hearing what he said, Nie Tingting was full of surprise: "There is actually such a place beneath the North Sea?"

Wang Mu pondered: "If I am not mistaken, that should be the location of the Cangyuan Realm core, the core Earth Vein that connects all parts of the Cangyuan Realm!"

That was not a sea area that truly existed.

It was an independent space that was integrated with the Cangyuan Realm but transcended the real Void Realm.

The World Core was always in motion.

Sometimes in the North Sea, sometimes in the Southern Region.

This time it just happened to appear at the bottom of the North Sea, and Han Li ran right into it.

It could only be said that everything was luck.

"Can you still sense the location of that space?" Wang Mu asked.

"Yes!" Han Li nodded, "When I left, I was cautious and left a wisp of Void Realm mark, for fear of not being able to return… As a result, sure enough, as soon as I left, the Void Realm portal disappeared!"

Wang Mu nodded and said: "Take me to find it!"

The next moment, the two vanished into the Void Realm.

The World Core was in motion every moment.

If one's luck was poor, they might never encounter it a second time in their life.

Fortunately.

Whether it was Wang Mu or Han Li, both had mastered the top-tier Void Realm Legacy, the Tai Xu Dragon Emperor Sutra. With the mark left in advance, it was not difficult to lock onto the location of the portal.

Half a month later.

They finally entered it again.

This was an extremely magnificent place, where Laws flowed everywhere, and the order and rules materialized and floated in the Void Realm.

The Spiritual Qi was shockingly dense.

Most importantly, Wang Mu clearly felt that this place connected to the areas with the densest Earth Qi in the Cangyuan Realm, which was where the Earth Veins were located.

It is well known.

Wherever the Earth Qi is dense, the Spiritual Qi must be dense, giving birth to all kinds of rare treasures and precious mineral veins.

And where the Earth Qi is barren, there is often nothing.

In other words.

If one could open Void Realm channels from here, one could stably connect to the most resource-rich places in the entire Cangyuan Realm and take many resources into one's own hands.

Of course, this was very difficult; those who had not achieved Major Achievement in the Dao of the Void Realm had no hope at all.

Han Li could not do it yet.

Fortunately, Wang Mu was also there.

"Han Li, protect me…" Wang Mu's eyes flashed with brilliance as he said: "I will anchor this space and the bottom of the North Sea, and open several channels directly to the places with the densest Earth Qi in all regions of the Cangyuan Realm!"

Han Li was shocked upon hearing this: "This… can it be done?"

Wang Mu said calmly: "Give me some time, no problem."

"Okay!"

Soon.

Half a month passed.

There were still a few days left until the second sermon.

Suddenly.

The North Sea surged, and endless Spiritual Qi tides permeated from beneath the seabed, rushing into the sky.

Spiritual Qi rain fell from the sky.

The originally barren sea area instantly became sparkling and shimmering with light.

"This… what is going on?"

"The world has changed greatly; this Spiritual Qi is at least dozens of times denser!"

"And it's still rising!"

"…" Everyone was full of surprise. Could it be that the Golden Age had truly arrived? Was heaven helping them too?

However, only a few people knew that this was not the will of heaven, but human will.

"Burning Spiritual Veins on such a large scale, the Earth Qi… truly extravagant!"

Beneath the North Sea, thirty thousand miles from the sea surface, existed a huge Formation.

Luo Xuanshuang, Elder Heavenly Craft, and other high-level officials were gathered here, looking at the burning, dazzling Formation, sighing incessantly.

Wang Mu said calmly: "If Spiritual Qi and Spiritual Veins cannot be used by people, they are worthless! We are draining the Spiritual Veins connected to the World Core in advance. Even if there is some damage to the Earth Qi, as long as the Cangyuan Realm can be preserved, there will always be a day for recovery. If we lose, all of this is meaningless."

After speaking, everyone nodded and said nothing more.

"Let's go, the second sermon can begin!"

Three years flashed by.

Because Wang Mu used the anchored World Core to take shortcuts and forcibly plundered the resources and Spiritual Qi of many Spiritual Veins and mineral veins to strengthen the Spiritual Qi concentration within the North Sea.

This caused the Saint Advent Society's efficiency in sacrificing Earth Qi to be greatly reduced.

Coupled with the continuous fighting and reclamation of lost territory by Shi Huang, Wang Tianba, and others, the plan that was originally scheduled to open the Starry Sky Ancient Road and welcome the arrival of the Celestial Demons in three to five years was greatly delayed.

So far, only about one-third has been completed.

Ling Xiaozi and the others were furious about this, but there was nothing they could do.

And in these three years.

Wang Mu gave nine sermons in total.

Every time a sermon was completed, the strength and Realm of the cultivators in the North Sea would increase by a large margin.

As of now.

Luo Xuanshuang had successfully stepped into the Realm of the twenty-third Tribulation Heavenly Immortal, just one step away from the Quasi-Emperor.

And Elders like Heavenly Craft and Tian Dan had also stepped into the Heavenly Immortal Realm, having survived at least twelve Heavenly Tribulations, their strength greatly increased.

Li Yuanhua had also successfully Undergone Tribulation, and in the three years, he had successively survived five Lightning Tribulations.

In the entire North Sea, the number of Earth Immortals above the Tribulation Transcendence Stage had increased to over a thousand.

There were tens of thousands in the Soul Transformation Realm.

Nascent Soul and Golden Core cultivators were countless.

Many talents had also emerged.

Such a spectacular situation had almost never appeared since the Golden Age of ancient times.

It is worth mentioning.

With a large number of extremely rare Heaven And Earth Treasure, Little Nannan's cultivation had also advanced by leaps and bounds, almost on par with Luo Xuanshuang, which stunned countless people.

And Shi Huang, who proved his Dao through battle, was no less powerful than Little Nannan.

The two were called the twin stars of the Human Race following Wang Mu.

As for Han Li, apart from the Tribulation he underwent that year which attracted much attention, he never exposed his cultivation again, as if he had faded into the crowd.

Lin Yan had left the North Sea three years ago to go to the Western Region to search for the immortal flame, and he had not returned since, nor had any news been heard.

It is worth mentioning Ye Mo.

Two and a half years ago, he went on an expedition with Shi Huang and the others to recover an ancient mountain range occupied by the Saint Advent Society, but later he went missing.

Until recently.

He suddenly sent a Jade Slip back, claiming that he had accidentally encountered the ruins of an ancient Immortal Court and was going to undergo trials and receive the Legacy there.

Everything was moving in a good direction.

Only one thing.

Wang Mu announced his seclusion six months ago, and then there was no movement.

Without him presiding over things.

People always felt empty and uneasy in their hearts.
