CHAPTER 1299: CHAPTER 1273: EARTH, I’M BACK!

"Mysteries, same origin and same root?" Tangyu and the others also looked at Senior Qing Yazi with a puzzled expression.

Qing Yazi continued to explain, "You should have some understanding of our world’s dimensions. Our Cultivation World is a great world, surrounded by tens of thousands of small worlds that are connected to the Cultivation World, becoming a part of it. Just like Earth, which is a small world. Previously, as long as martial artists on Earth reached the Golden Core Realm, they could sense the world’s origin, receive information from it, and open a passage to the Cultivation World."

"This is what you call ascension on Earth, but the ascension is not to the Immortal Realm, but to the Cultivation World, the real birthplace of civilization. These small worlds of yours are gradually growing but are still relatively weak, with lower levels and backward civilization."

"You have been in the Cultivation World for so long, and you should be able to feel that the Cultivation World has its primordial Great Dao, which maintains its operation and perpetuity."

"Similarly, small worlds also have their primordial Great Dao, but it is much more fragile compared to the Cultivation World. Simply put, a small world cannot withstand much energy. Once the energy exceeds the small world’s capacity, it will collapse."

With this explanation, Tangyu felt relieved and nodded, "Indeed, Earth is too small, and its strength is too weak. A large meteorite could potentially destroy Earth. The power of a Seeking Immortal Realm being is indeed beyond what Earth can bear."

"Right, the power at the Seeking Immortal Realm level cannot be tolerated by small worlds. The main issue is a kind of resistance from the primordial Great Dao, which, once formed, will cause the small world to collapse. The Seeking Immortal Realm has already grasped the Great Dao, stepping into a mysterious realm. However, if it is of the same origin, then the small world will not resist, and everything will coexist peacefully."

Tangyu nodded, "That’s true, I understand now. Thank you, Senior Qing Yazi, for coming to find us. We must return to Earth immediately. If those Zifu Realm powers go crazy, they could destroy Earth. I must protect our homeland."

Qing Yazi said, "Tangyu, there’s no need to be so anxious. Your Earth has something special. Last time I faintly sensed an invisible force protecting your Earth. During the last battle, I clearly felt that if we tried to destroy Earth, there would be a force to block us. The entire Earth seems to be protected by a massive Protective Formation. The power of the Zifu Realm should not be enough to destroy Earth’s origin."

"Hmm? Such a thing?" Tangyu was slightly startled and thought for a moment, then said, "Could it be that Pangu Immortal Venerate and Nuwa Immortal Venerate returned to Earth later and set up the Protective Formation there? But—if Pangu Immortal Venerate and Nuwa Immortal Venerate did return to Earth later, why didn’t they leave some inheritance behind?"

This doubt left Tangyu puzzled as well.

Qing Yazi said, "All of this can only be properly investigated once you return to Earth. What I can do is limited to this; the rest is up to you."

Tangyu nodded heavily, bowed to Senior Qing Yazi, and said, "Thank you, Senior Qing Yazi, on behalf of Earth. We will take care of this matter. Even if it is the Seeking Immortal Realm that’s bold enough to enter, I will slay them all. We must not delay; let us set off for Earth now."

"Let’s go." Qing Yazi waved to Tangyu and the four, bidding them farewell.

The group of five quickly arrived at the rift, which was covered by numerous formations set by Qing Yazi. Qing Yazi released the formations, allowing Tangyu and the others to enter. They jumped into the space rift, and with their current strength, there was no danger. It took them several days to reach the end. The four jumped out of the space rift and found themselves in a canyon.

Tangyu remembered this place as the spot they left from before.

Looking at the familiar surroundings, he took a deep breath of the familiar scents of home. Taking in all the familiarity, returning after more than four years, Tangyu’s emotions were both excited and wonderful: "Earth, I’m back. Master, my wives, I’m back."

After the joy, Tangyu quickly calmed his mind, sensing a little and then assuredly said, "Earth’s origin has not been damaged; it seems those people didn’t do anything outrageous. But they have been on Earth for over three months; I don’t know what they have done. We must track them all down and then kill them one by one. However, the most important thing now is to return to Donglin first."

The distance from here to Donglin City was two to three thousand miles, a very short distance for Tangyu and them now.

The four flew through the air, turning into streaks of light heading towards Donglin City. In no time, they arrived in Donglin City, their speed much faster than the fastest planes, landing directly in the courtyard of Princess Apartments. Seeing Princess Apartments, everything was unchanged, just as it was when they left. Looking at the sight that couldn’t be more familiar, Tangyu’s emotions surged, the tide of longing breaking the dam, flooding uncontrollably.

"Feifei, Momo, Xiaoqing, Min-jie, Doctor Xiao—" one by one, names and shadows leaped into Tangyu’s mind, all sweet memories.

"Hmm? Something’s not right!" Tangyu’s eyebrows suddenly furrowed and he moved directly into the house.

Tangyu’s sudden entry caused two alert voices to sound inside: "Who is it!"

A massive figure and a lean body were blocking the way from left and right, one like a fierce beast, the other like a venomous snake. It was clear that at the slightest trigger, the two would transform into the most terrifying weapons and strike. On the sofa behind them, an old figure sat with a pale face, covered by a coat, clearly showing signs of severe injuries.

"Lengzi, Xiaoyu, Master, it’s me." Tangyu quickly spoke, his gaze falling on the Ghost Doctor. Seeing the Ghost Doctor’s condition, Tangyu’s expression immediately darkened, and in a flash, he appeared in front of the Ghost Doctor: "Master, what happened to you? Who hurt you like this?"

"Such speed!" Lengzi and Xiaoyu were taken aback, but soon they were overjoyed: "Boss, you’re back, you’re finally back!"

Sun Wukong and the others also followed in.

Seeing Tangyu, the Ghost Doctor was obviously extremely excited, which caused him to cough violently, spitting out blood: "Tangyu, you’re back, you finally came back. I thought I would never see you again in this life. You made it back from the Cultivation World, well done, you’re amazing."

Tangyu said, "Master, don’t speak for now. Although your injuries are severe, they’re nothing in my eyes now. I’ll heal you." Saying this, Tangyu did not let the Ghost Doctor speak further, as a vast immortal power poured into the Ghost Doctor’s body. As long as there was a breath left, Tangyu could completely bring him back to life, not to mention the Ghost Doctor’s body hadn’t deteriorated to that extent. With Tangyu’s current strength, healing the Ghost Doctor was an easy task.

Feeling the vast immortal power pouring into his body, the Ghost Doctor was shocked, also feeling his body rapidly recovering, as if he had taken some miraculous pill, the effect was simply too good to be true. As the Ghost Doctor himself, he was powerless against his own injuries, left to await death. Unexpectedly, Tangyu could heal him so easily. Additionally, the Ghost Doctor was pleasantly surprised to find that his body was improving, transforming, and sublimating.

His cultivation was also crazily rising, Mystic Law Realm Second Layer, Third Layer, Fourth Layer—

In no time, it rapidly increased to the Mystic Law Realm Ninth Layer, completing what others couldn’t achieve in a hundred years in just a short time. Such an increase was even easier than drinking water.

After the Ghost Doctor’s power reached the Mystic Law Realm Ninth Layer, his body fully recovered.

Only then did Tangyu stop: "Master, you’re fine now, how do you feel?"

The Ghost Doctor stood up, feeling his body with great joy, ecstatic: "Much better, much better indeed. It’s a wonderful feeling that in just a few minutes, my injuries have completely healed. And my power, it has advanced to the Mystic Law Realm Ninth Layer, jumping eight realms, it’s too incredible, isn’t it?"

Lengzi and Xiaoyu were also gazing at Tangyu with immense shock, their admiration for him growing boundlessly, as if he was a god.

Tangyu said, "Master, this is nothing. With my current realm, it’s not a big deal to forcibly raise you to the Golden Core Realm Ninth Layer, let alone just the Mystic Law Realm Ninth Layer. Here, Master, this is a Jinyang Pill. After taking it, you’ll immediately advance to the Golden Core Realm. Later, I’ll see if I can find a way to boost you to the Zifu Realm."

With a motion of Tangyu’s hand, a Jinyang Pill appeared.

"Directly advance to the Golden Core Realm!" The Ghost Doctor was once again startled, looking at the Jinyang Pill in Tangyu’s hand, sensing the rich immortal Qi: "It really is an immortal pill, excellent, excellent, I won’t be courteous with you. Haha, who would’ve thought, truly unexpected. Just over four years apart, Tangyu, you’ve grown to a height even I couldn’t imagine. Having you as a disciple is this life’s greatest pride for me." Taking the Jinyang Pill, the Ghost Doctor swallowed it down, then sat cross-legged to meditate on the Jinyang Pill and break through to the Golden Core Realm.

On Earth, achieving the Golden Core was simply a legend.

Lengzi and Xiaoyu were also looking at Tangyu with expectation, their mouths almost watering.

Tangyu looked over and said, "You are still just at Mystic Law Realm First Layer. To advance you to the Golden Core is not an easy task. Just relying on Jinyang Pills is not enough. Let’s handle the important matters first; later, I will personally enhance your powers. Jinyang Pills are already prepared for you, so there’s no need to rush."

"Hehe, knew the boss would be the best."

"The boss hasn’t forgotten us, we’ll listen to the boss for everything."

Tangyu’s expression turned serious as he said, "What’s going on exactly? I returned this time because I knew something was going to happen to Earth. Tell me in detail."
