Chapter One: The Initial Separation of Realms

  PS: This is the third book of Lonely that has been put on shelves. I hope all book friends can still support Lonely as always.

  Monthly tickets and all that, I've always been too afraid to indulge in such luxuries, so just ask for a subscription instead.

  Based on 500 subscribers, an additional chapter will be added for every 200 subscribers increased, with no upper limit. I really want to work hard for subscriptions, but I don't know if you'll give me this opportunity?

  The ruins sound somewhat eerie, but in fact they are nothing out of the ordinary.

  This mountain and the nine peaks of Tianheng are not much different, with courtyards stretching to the top of the mountain, only some courtyards are extremely large, covering tens or even hundreds of acres.

  "According to the data, the most valuable places are Lingcao Garden, Zhenqi Pavilion, Miaodan Pavilion and Wujing Building!" An Yumei held a map, looked at it for a while, and pointed them out one by one.

  "Go to Lingcao Garden first!" Zhou Heng said immediately.

  The Grand Primal Rite has been held hundreds of times, and the situation here has long been thoroughly understood by generation after generation. Zhou Heng chose to do so because things in other places will only become less and less, while Lingcao Garden will have new lingcao growing every 18 years after its "rest period".

  Ling Cao Garden may not be the most valuable place in Da Yan Zong, but it is absolutely the easiest place to gain benefits.

  At the speed of three people, it took only a few minutes to arrive at Lingcao Garden. They directly jumped over the wall and entered. What appeared in front of them was a dense forest. From a high place, this forest was tens of hectares in size, with lush greenery stretching continuously.

  Under every large tree, there is a possibility of growing spiritual grass, which grows with the tree. This is a unique method of cultivating spiritual grass in Taiyuan Sect, and it has a very good effect. Unfortunately, with the sudden destruction of Taiyuan Sect, this method was also lost.

  It's very difficult to find the spiritual grass under a withered leaf, weeds and tree roots. Moreover, this place is so vast that it may not be enough to walk back and forth in a month!

  But all the major forces strictly prohibit logging and searching. For the power of Hansong, this is a harvest period that occurs every 18 years. Logging and harvesting can indeed increase the yield of this time, but it also means there will be no next time!

  No force would allow such a situation to occur. Whoever commits it is the public enemy of Hansheng Country, and anyone can execute them.

  Therefore, no one dares to do such a thing.

  Zhou Heng unfolded his divine consciousness, the most important thing was to pay attention to the movement of the black broken sword in the dantian. This old man was the first great ability to explore the treasure. Unfortunately, it seemed that there was no spiritual grass here that could make this master "move his heart", and he had no reaction at all.

  Compared to Xinluo Hall, this place is indeed not up to par!

  What kind of treasure can be compared to the Ninth Layer of the Nine Heavens Tower? This is a treasure that can rival the Divine Transformation Realm! No, if the tenth layer really appears with an opponent in the Divine Transformation Realm, it should at least be half a level higher than the Divine Transformation Realm.

  Immortal... Immortal artifact? Semi-immortal artifact?

  Is there really an immortal in the world? An existence that is forever young and never dies or perishes?

  Zhou Heng had a kind of eagerness, unfortunately, he didn't have many people he trusted, otherwise, just letting someone in to challenge each level would be very rewarding!

  Unable to cheat, they could only rely on their eyesight. Zhou Heng let Lin Xiang out and the four of them searched together.

  "Found it!" Lin Xiangxiang suddenly exclaimed, pulling out a plant with a completely green body. Smugly, she said, "Look, Biro Heart Grass, at least 300 years old! I'm really amazing, hiding for so many years without being discovered, but found by me!"

  Zhou Heng and the other two people looked at each other in dismay, but couldn't help nodding their heads. Her luck was indeed a bit good.

  Unfortunately, the use of Biroshin grass is not very large, which may also be one of the reasons why it has survived.

  "Wait!" Lin Xiang and the other two were about to leave, but Zhou Heng stopped them. "Take a closer look, there are bite marks on the leaves of this Biro Heart Grass!"

  "It's normal, there are always insects in the woods!" Lin Fengxiang said disapprovingly.

  Gu Zi and An Yu Mei's eyes lit up at the same time, but it was An Yu Mei who spoke: "Bai Luo Xin Cao is known for its toughness, and it can be used as a medicine because of this effect. It can greatly slow down the aging of Dan medicine, and basically no insects will eat Bai Luo Xin Cao! Unless——"

  "Unless there's a Mingyu here!" Zhou Heng interjected.

  "Mingyu's peak honey is a great tonic!" An Yumei suddenly became excited, her pretty face filled with an enchanting glow, as if she had just finished a romantic tryst with Zhouheng.

  "It should be on a big tree nearby, take a look!" Zhou Heng and the other three immediately dispersed, jumped onto the treetops, and began to search carefully.

  "I've found it!" After a while, Lin Xiangxiang exclaimed, her voice full of excitement.

  "Don't move recklessly!" Zhou Heng hastily said, ordinary Ming Yu Feng was only a Refining Body Realm demon beast, but there must be several guard bees in the hive that had reached the Gathering Spirit Realm, which Lin Xiangxiang couldn't match.

  If she moves randomly, it is highly likely that she will be stung into a hornet's nest. The bee venom in the Spirit Gathering Realm should not be underestimated!

  Zhou Heng flew over and saw that on a tree branch, there was indeed a huge beehive, about one and a half people tall! However, the leaves were dense, and if he hadn't jumped onto the branch, it would have been impossible to discover.

  Everyone's eyes were fixed on the spiritual grass under the tree, but they all missed the treasure of Mingyu Peak.

  Zhou Heng didn't hesitate at all, and directly enlarged the Nine Xuan Trial Tower. With one kick, he sent the entire beehive flying into the tower. Countless snow-white bees flew out of the hive, rushing towards Zhou Heng in a frenzy.

  Boom!

  The pagoda's body merged, Zhou Heng's mind moved slightly, and he had already put away the Nine Xuan trials.

  At this time, An Yumei and Gu Zi also jumped over, Zhou Heng hugged the three women at the same time, saying: "All enter the tower!"

  He had a sudden thought, and since all three women would not resist his will, they were immediately taken into the Nine Xuan Trials Tower by him.

  Suddenly, countless jade bees rushed towards the four people.

  "Don't move!" Zhou Heng shouted, drawing his black sword and unleashing the Flying Waterfall Sword Technique. In an instant, countless jade wasps fell to their deaths under the black sword.

  Although these jade bees are not of high quality, they win in terms of quantity, and together they should not be underestimated.

  He grasped the momentum, and with a single sword stroke, he could evolve into countless variations, his killing power was unmatched and terrifying. Just one minute later, his surroundings were already piled up with half a circle of jade bee corpses as high as a foot.

  After beheading five Yu Feng in the Jiling realm, only about a hundred Yu Feng were left, and they didn't dare to come forward again, but instead flew around the hive.

  Zhou Heng carefully opened the beehive. After taking away 90% of the honey, he melted and solidified the hive, and put it back on the tree. He left the queen bee unharmed and added a tenth of the honey, more than a hundred bees were enough to continue breeding.

  These swarms had done nothing to offend him, but for his own strength, Zhou Heng took action to plunder them, leaving a thread of life. This was his principle.

  There was a lot of honey, and after dividing it evenly into four portions, each portion was about the size of a fist. Zhou Heng did not differentiate between thick and thin, since they were traveling together as four people, so everyone's share should be the same.

  "The competition will be fierce later on, let's refine this honey immediately and strive for a breakthrough!" Zhou Heng said.

  Their party's strength is not strong, if they were to compete with others for treasure. The possibility of winning is very low, and if they encounter the Water Moon Princess, there may even be a risk to their lives!

  Strengthening power is imminent.

  The four of them were in the Jiuxuan Trial Tower, digesting the benefits of the Mingyu Honey.

  Zhou Heng did not immediately take the Mingyu Bee Honey, but instead first refined the power absorbed by the Black Sword. Not long after, just over two hours, his cultivation reached the middle stage of Jiling San Chong Tian.

  He then cut the Mingyu Peak honey into small pieces and took them separately, his cultivation skyrocketing all the way. After a day and night, he reached the peak of the Gathering Spirit Realm!

  It can be broken through the initial boundary!

  This might take a very long time. Ten days or half a month isn't considered long! Zhou Heng thought for a moment, discussed it with An Yumei and the three girls, and finally decided to all stay inside the Jiuxuan Trial Tower to ensure their safety.

  With opinions unified, Zhou Heng charged at the Initial Division Boundary with a clear mind.

  His current dantian space is now filled with spiritual energy, dense enough to condense into **. The next step is to separate the dantian, letting the turbid air sink to the ground and the clear air rise to heaven.

  Of course, the whole process involves splitting the earth and opening the sky, but he is still far from reaching this step, and only needs to divide the elixir field for now.

  But how to distinguish, this is a big problem, so-called checkpoints and barriers refer to this.

  It's inexplicable and inexpressible, can only be understood intuitively but not verbally transmitted or physically taught. If it's not comprehended, then one will remain at this level for their entire life, unable to advance even a little bit.

  But for Zhou Heng, this was nothing!

  He transformed his spirit and shape, grasping a black sword, and in his dantian, he danced the Lingtian Nine Forms.

  Cut cut listen, break break break!

  Rumbling sounds emanated from within him, like thunderclaps, as if the universe was being shaken to its core, trembling across all realms!

  The initial separation is about initially separating heaven and earth, forming the embryo of an inner world.

  Zhou Hengxin has enlightenment, Ling Tian Jiu Shi opens heaven and earth!

  Boom!

  The dantian space shook violently, crackling and cracking, like an eggshell, a fissure appeared, spreading continuously, filling the entire dantian, then bursting loudly, opening with a rumble, forming two parts upper and lower!

  In this process, the dantian space also rapidly expanded, eventually increasing by tenfold!

  Tenfold!

  When he opened his dantian, his dantian space expanded four times larger than before, and this time it was ten times larger! While most people can increase their dantian space by one fold when they first separate heaven and earth, Zhou Heng's current dantian size is forty times that of an ordinary person who has just separated heaven and earth.

  From this point of view, his development potential has not decreased at all, but is still increasing!

  Heaven and earth spiritual energy surged forth, Zhou Heng greedily absorbed it, stabilizing his boundary.

  Half an hour later, he stopped but did not stand up. Instead, he ate the remaining Mingyu honey to continue improving his cultivation.

  The first division of the heavy heavenly body in the middle period!

  Zhou Heng opened his eyes again, revealing a satisfied expression. At this time, if he encountered Nan Gong Yue's words again, his trump card would be revealed and he could definitely kill the opponent!

  He raised his hands, and with a loud crash, his left hand ignited with purple flames, while his right hand transformed into metal. This time, the metalization and purple flames both reached up to his forearms!

  The power of blood has been greatly enhanced!

  Zhou Heng took out the Ling Crystal Pillar - this was what he had asked An Yumeng to buy, so that he could test his Bloodline Power from time to time.

  Double Ten Star People's Spirit!

  Break through once more, even if it's just a small boundary, and he can push the power of the Blood Vessel to the Earth Spirit Body!

  That's too ridiculous!

  Zhou Heng exclaimed in surprise, but at the same time, he couldn't help but smile with joy. The initial boundary was indeed not comparable to the Ling Gathering Boundary. His current strength was at least more than thirty times stronger than before!

  Normally, from the Cong Ling realm to the initial separation realm, the power is increased by about ten times. However, Zhou Heng was not an ordinary person.

  He went straight up to the third floor and began his trial of initial boundary! (....)
