Chapter 622: Chapter 602: The Situation Beyond the Light Sphere

During their time at the Star Tower, Shen Han and Shi Yuezhu shared a courtyard.

Originally, Shen Han thought that the proximity would inevitably lead to some conflicts.

However, Shen Han discovered that he and Shi Yuezhu were more in sync than expected.

Sometimes, with just a glance, they could understand each other’s intentions.

Neither of them were petty, and Shi Yuezhu had a gentle temperament.

Shen Han also wasn’t an impulsive person.

Previously, no real conflicts had arisen, only occasionally Shen Han would playfully tease her.

Then he would get a scolding in return...

As for other matters, they were still at the resting stage.

To go further, naturally, they would need to marry first.

Shen Han was actually considering this in his heart.

Should he first propose with a betrothal gift...

...

It had been four months since Shen Han and Shi Yuezhu began cultivating their Divine Souls.

The progress was rapid, and the effects were very apparent.

Whenever they encountered something puzzling, Shi Yuezhu would consult Shen Han, and he was always able to provide an answer.

In all her years of cultivation, Shi Yuezhu felt that only Shen Han had such ability.

The puzzles that baffled her were always challenging, perplexing issues.

Sometimes even ambiguous and hard to decide upon.

Yet Shen Han could always offer solutions, logically and convincingly.

In practice, there were no issues either.

During their cultivation, Madam Yun had started to convey different messages to Shen Han.

Previously, Madam Yun would often ask when Shen Han planned to return home.

Recently, she encouraged him to focus on his cultivation.

Shen Han shared his doubts with Shi Yuezhu.

Shi Yuezhu got the answer from Xiaoyao Peak.

Recently, servants of the Yun Family died while traveling, and rumors were that Luo Changping was responsible.

Xiaoyao Peak has now expanded its area of defense.

The towns at the foot of the mountain have been included in their protection.

It was evident that Luo Changping, unable to target her directly, was perhaps aiming at her family instead.

Or she simply desired harm to befall Shen Han’s loved ones.

She had lost a nephew and wanted Shen Han to feel the agony of losing family.

Luo Changping needed to be dealt with, lest Shen Han remain wary.

How to eradicate her was a matter he truly needed to ponder.

Coinciding with this information were revelations about the world behind the light sphere.

Human nature seemed the same everywhere.

More and more people started venturing into that light sphere.

In just a few months, whether it was on the side of Great Wei or Divine Land,

many who harbored grudges and saw no hope for revenge began heading there.

The influence of the event seemed to be growing larger.

Many disillusioned individuals believed their weakness was because the local Cultivation Method didn’t suit them.

Venturing there would surely let them soar to the skies.

As time went by, even disciples from major sects started heading there.

Anyone dissatisfied with their current situation ventured there in search of improvement.

The affected sects started dispatching powerful figures to gather intelligence.

All major sects from the Inner Domain sent their members.

Once they collected information, they consolidated it together.

Over the past six months, one thing became increasingly certain.

The sects and powers over there were not truly interested in Great Wei and the Divine Land.

Instead, people from Divine Land and Great Wei were filled with fantasies about over there.

The real threat was not some invasion or plundering.

It was that talents from both places would head over there of their own accord.

Additionally, the order established between Divine Land and Great Wei would crumble.

If cultivation to enter the Immortal Realm there was truly so easy.

These individuals, once they mastered it and returned, filled with grievances, would inevitably seek revenge.

Immortals and True Immortals would be everywhere.

The established order would undoubtedly be shattered...

Although Shen Han and Shi Yuezhu’s cultivation plans were undisturbed, they still kept an eye on these events.

For both regions, it was a once-in-a-millennium upheaval.

In his casual chats with Madam Yun, Shen Han heard much about these matters too.

The entire Great Wei seemed to be watching these developments.

Even some who had never cultivated wanted to go there, hoping fortune might let them soar to new heights.

There were also quite a few restless individuals in Great Wei.

Even the Imperial Family was sending people to learn about what lay beyond the light sphere.

The royal families of various countries, having ruled for so long, understood where their power stemmed from.

The Imperial Family’s strength was not solely from their own might.

Whether in Yan Country or Great Wei, their power was reinforced by the collective support of numerous entrenched interests.

Frankly, it was the unified recognition of several powerful forces within the nation.

But if it turned out that the area beyond the light sphere allowed easy entry into the Immortal Realm,

then a real issue could arise.

The previously dominant families and powers, those vested interests, would no longer be strong.

No longer possess the ability to intimidate a region.

Other family forces now also have quite a few strong Immortal Realm experts. Will they still be willing to follow the previous distribution of interests?

This is just within one country.

There are also other small countries. Originally, it was difficult for them to produce even one Immortal Realm expert. 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖

But through this event, if they also gain many Immortal Realm experts,

Then the borders and territories which were originally divided need to be redistributed.

The northern Qi Country, although its borders are somewhat distant from the light sphere,

They have also begun to send people, trying to enter the light sphere.

As the news spreads more and more, even Buddhist sects like the Star Tower are affected.

The impact on sects in the Outer Domain is even greater.

Many people’s talents and potential initially did not qualify them for the Inner Domain.

But now, there is an opportunity for them to take a step forward and easily surpass the Inner Sect disciples.

Shen Han thought about it, if he had such an opportunity, he would probably take the gamble too.

The first group of people who entered the light sphere are close to six months in now.

The people sent by major sects in the Inner Domain have been in there for quite a while.

These are core members of various major sects, and they should be able to provide a lot of accurate information.

Recently, there has been an overwhelming amount of news from the light sphere.

The conversations between Shen Han and Shi Yuezhu also inevitably include this topic.

If it really is as the rumors say, where the cultivation method there easily allows one to reach the Immortal Realm,

Then the peace and freedom I seek would seem even further away...

Facing the possible changes, Shen Han actually doesn’t feel much nervous or worried inside.

Perhaps to others, someone like Shen Han, who reaches the Immortal Realm at such a young age,

Upon hearing of an easier way to improve, should feel quite indignant inside.

But in reality, Shen Han isn’t too anxious.

With his profound ability to extract entries, his potential is simply incomparable to others.

Even if he has to change his cultivation path, he’s not worried at all.

It would just be another round of cultivation and enhancement.

What Shen Han is more concerned about is if those changes really occur, they might cause a great deal of chaos.

People like Madam Yun and Cailing, who have almost never been involved in cultivation, would be the most vulnerable in such chaos.

Time swiftly passes by.

Shen Han and Shi Yuezhu have been here for almost eight months.

Recently, fewer people have journeyed to the Star Tower for training.

In the past, every time the Star Tower opened, many disciples from the Celestial Sword Sect would come to train.

But this time, not only has the number of disciples from the Celestial Sword Sect decreased, even the number of those entering the Star Tower has gone down.

There are already disciples who have returned from training over there, bragging about their experiences.

Judging by their performance, it wasn’t actually as exaggerated as the rumors suggest.

It wasn’t the case that they could easily reach the True Immortal Realm as said in the rumors.

The disciple who returned to show off is an Outer Sect disciple from an Inner Domain sect.

His strength used to be around the Seventh Grade Fruit Realm.

He stayed over there for about six to almost seven months.

During this period, returning with strength to duel with others suggests he has probably reached the Sixth Grade.

This rate of improvement is actually enough to bring delight.

In two to three years, advancing from Seventh Grade to Sixth Grade would be considered impressive for Outer Sect disciples in many sects.

This person’s aptitude previously only allowed him to be an Outer Sect disciple in the sect.

But over the course of six to seven months, he’s reached the level of an Inner Sect disciple.

Moreover, according to him, the cultivation methods over there were entirely different from those in the Divine Land.

After experiencing Washing Marrow, he started cultivating from scratch again.

Starting over, within six to seven months, he acquired a strength close to the Sixth Grade.

If that’s true, the cultivation methods on the other side of the light sphere are indeed impressive...

More and more returnees are boasting, while those looking forward to that side’s opportunities are increasing.

Who could resist the chance to improve swiftly and grow stronger?

Upon hearing all this, Shen Han still has quite a few doubts in his mind.

These rumors might have fabricated content and cannot be fully trusted.

The sects from various major domains sent people to the other side about three months ago.

The information they gather should be much more accurate than these rumors.

The changes this year feel significantly greater than imagined, Shen Han senses.

If what the person said is true, where one could improve from entry level to Sixth Grade in a few months,

The cultivation methods over there really do seem attractive.

No wonder people say the Divine Land is a remote place.

With rumors spreading like wildfire, Shen Han and Shi Yuezhu also temporarily halted their Divine Soul cultivation.

Instead, Shen Han and Shi Yuezhu began studying the art of arrays together.

Yuezhu’s array skills are slightly above beginners.

However, she is still doing quite well.

Personal arrays are among the most difficult of arrays.

Many people don’t quite have the talent to even get started.

Shen Han takes this opportunity to help Shi Yuezhu solidify her array skills.

Coincidentally, it also advances his understanding of arrays.

If there really are more formidable cultivation methods, then these current methods might indeed become obsolete.

However, arrays and sword techniques will likely never be outdated.

These techniques will continue to be effective.
