CHAPTER 444: CHAPTER 86 TRUE REALM

Wisp after wisp of blue smoke rose straight up into the air as sandalwood fragrance permeated throughout the elegant room.

Suddenly, the painting of the Court Lady hanging on the wall stirred and, astonishingly, a graceful Court Lady stepped out from it.

"Alas, I’m a Court Lady, and now I’ve actually become a maid, how despicable!" the Court Lady muttered discontentedly, though her hands didn’t stop moving.

Spoonful after spoonful of bitter medicine was forcibly poured into Chen Jiuge’s mouth. As his Vitality within grew more and more vigorous, he seemed to be not far from awakening.

CREAK!

With a graceful figure, Lady Jiang Xueyao, accompanied by the Female Official Zhu Ying, arrived in the room. The Court Lady hurriedly bowed, saying, "Greetings, Lady."

"No need for formalities. How is this person doing?" Jiang Xueyao curiously asked, looking towards Chen Jiuge on the bed.

The Court Lady was at a loss for words. I’m a Court Lady, not a doctor. And this person’s cultivation is probably even higher than my own; I can’t discern it.

Zhu Ying spoke indifferently, "Lady, this Court Lady painting is merely at the Taoist Foundation cultivation. How could she see?"

"Moreover, this person, I suspect he’s from the Lower Realm and should possess Divine Storage cultivation. Lady, it’s better if you keep your distance from such outsiders!"

Jiang Xueyao shook her head in a somewhat dissatisfied manner. "Hmph, I don’t care anymore."

Watching Jiang Xueyao stomp away like a little girl throwing a tantrum, Zhu Ying sighed softly, "Lady, this is for your own good. His Majesty is still suspicious now."

The Court Lady shivered with fear. Is this something I, just a painting, am supposed to hear?

With a sweep of her sleeve, Zhu Ying turned the Court Lady back into a painting. Its surface’s Spirit Light was also concealed by Mana, making it look no different from an ordinary painting.

Standing beside the bed, Zhu Ying gazed deeply at Chen Jiuge for a moment, thinking to herself, "Oh well, if the Lady wants to save him, then let’s save him."

She took out a purple jade bottle from her Storage Ring, and an extremely dense Life Force spread throughout the room. This was Heavenly Destiny Divine Water. It was capable of healing any injury as long as the person wasn’t dead. The only prerequisite was that the cultivator’s cultivation couldn’t surpass that of a True Immortal.

The milky-white Heavenly Destiny Divine Water was dabbed on Chen Jiuge’s forehead by Zhu Ying.

The immense Life Force instantly dispersed all the concealed injuries within Chen Jiuge’s body, even triggering the Life Dao within him, with a rich Vitality touching upon every cell.

"COUGH, COUGH."

Chen Jiuge felt as though he had just had a terrible dream. A large group of Great Powers of Dao Yi were fighting fiercely in the sky. Then, for some reason, some of the Great Powers turned against him, and after that, he became nothing.

"Where am I?" Chen Jiuge asked, confused as he looked around the antique room.

"This is the True Realm’s Qingming Ancient Country!" Zhu Ying said coolly.

"What? True Realm?"

「Seven days passed in the blink of an eye.」

Chen Jiuge sat somewhat dazedly at the stone table in the courtyard. Seven days had been enough for Chen Jiuge to understand his current situation.

This was the True Realm, the world where the True Demon Clan lived. The Spiritual Energy in the sky, as well as the Laws, simply couldn’t be compared to that of the Star Sea Realm.

People from the Lower Realm like Chen Jiuge would usually undergo a baptism in the Ascension Pool through the correct channels of ascension. This would compensate for the defects in the Laws within their bodies before entering the True Realm. If one sneaked in illicitly, their body would fall into a slumber, autonomously compensating for the missing Laws.

Thanks to Zhu Ying’s drop of Heavenly Destiny Divine Water, not only had Chen Jiuge’s missing Life Law been replenished, but his hidden injuries had also been healed.

"What is your level of cultivation?" Zhu Ying appeared opposite Chen Jiuge at some point.

Bringing his mind back, his eyes moving slightly, Chen Jiuge said hoarsely, "All I know is, according to the world I came from, it would be Heavenly Immortal."

The always cool-faced Zhu Ying suddenly laughed. "Forget it, it’s always like this in small worlds. Cast your Fireball Technique for me to see."

"Here?" Chen Jiuge frowned. Even if the True Realm’s suppression was harsher, with his strength, this small courtyard wouldn’t withstand it.

Zhu Ying resumed her cool demeanor. "If I tell you to cast it, you cast it!"

"Alright then."

With robust Mana circulating within him, Chen Jiuge extended his hand, palm upward, and a fireball with a diameter of several meters appeared out of thin air.

The orange flames lit up both their faces in astonishment.

Chen Jiuge asked, "How come it has so little power?"

Zhu Ying replied, "It should be at the Divine Storage Realm. However, because you haven’t completely adapted to the True Realm Law, you currently only have the strength of the Great Divine Power Realm."

After the fireball vanished, Chen Jiuge sank into contemplation, starting to question his life.

Zhu Ying spoke indifferently, "You can tell me about the features of the cultivation realms in your small world, and I’ll explain them to you."

"Thank you."

As Chen Jiuge described them, a hint of surprise slowly emerged on Zhu Ying’s face. After listening, she said with astonishment, "Interesting. Your small world is actually quite powerful to have True Immortals emerge."

"Is Dao Yi just a True Immortal?" Chen Jiuge said with a heavy heart.

"Let me start from the beginning," Zhu Ying said.

"Firstly, what you call realms below Immortal in your world roughly equate to the True Realm’s Mana, Taoist Foundation, Heavenly Origin, and Dharma Image realms."

"True Immortal should be equivalent to the Great Divine Power Realm. Heavenly Immortal corresponds to the Divine Storage Realm. Golden Immortal corresponds to True Monarch. Immortal corresponds to Pure Yang True Monarch, and Dao Yi is True Immortal."

After finishing, Zhu Ying still wore a hint of amazement. A small world capable of producing a True Immortal was quite extraordinary. It was a shame. From this person’s description, their small world had been occupied by the True Demon Clan, those barbarians. Otherwise, merely with this merit, the Lady could have returned to the palace!

"So that’s how it is!" Chen Jiuge exclaimed.

After getting a clear explanation, Zhu Ying said indifferently, "My Lady is kind-hearted. Now that you’re healed, you should be leaving in a few days."

"A life saved must be repaid generously. Is there anything I can help with?" Chen Jiuge said gravely.
