Ch. 734 - Return To True Martial Sacred Ground

Walking into the Void Valley, it felt different from last time, this time Xu Zimo moved with practiced ease.

He spread his God-Soul, sensing the presence of his true body.

The Void Valley was vast. Currently, spatial storms hadn’t yet appeared, and the turbulence wasn’t too intense, so Xu Zimo decided to check out the place from before.

The three moved swiftly. After nearly an hour of travel, Xu Zimo’s eyes lit up.

“I can sense it,” he said.

Looking southwest, he saw demonic energy slowly drifting in the air.

“This demonic aura…” the Seven-Face Infernal Archon paused, sensing a familiar energy.

“Go meet your old acquaintance,” Xu Zimo smiled.

As the group stepped through the air heading southwest, the inernal aura seemed to sense them as well.

They stared at each other from a distance of a thousand meters.

“Paimon,” the Seven-Face Infernal Archon muttered.

Ahead was a tall mountain, with Paimon standing atop it, guarding Xu Zimo’s true body.

When the three landed at the mountain’s summit, Paimon laughed loudly, “Old Seven-Face, you’re still alive?”

“Watch your mouth, Paimon. I’m tougher than anyone,” the Infernal Archon snorted.

“Where did Master find you?” Paimon looked at Xu Zimo and smiled.

Though Xu Zimo's body had changed, Paimon could still sense his soul.

“I-” Xu Zimo hadn’t replied when the Infernal Archon cut in, “Why are you asking so many questions? What’s it got to do with you?”

Thinking about how he had been trapped inside the Demon-Locking Bell for millions of years, the Infernal Archon wasn’t about to lose face now.

“All right, enough bickering,” Xu Zimo waved. “Let me return to my original body. I’m still not used to someone else’s.”

The other two stood guard while Xu Zimo began the soul transfer.

Transferring a God-Soul into a new body wasn’t easy. It depended on whether the body could properly integrate with the soul.

Fortunately, Xu Zimo was returning to his own original body, so the difficulty was minimal.

He sat cross-legged atop the mountain, gradually detaching his soul from Lin Qiu’s body.

However, he didn’t fully detach, if Lin Qiu’s body lost all awareness, it would become useless.

Xu Zimo split off a wisp of soul to control Lin Qiu’s body as a remnant soul, while the main soul returned to his own.

In that moment, he felt as though he had entered a warm ocean.

His soul was bathed in comfort, like a spring breeze or autumn rain, and every pore of his body opened.

After several hours of this process, Xu Zimo finally felt whole again.

He gradually took control of his body, first moving his fingers, then raising his arm, and eventually standing up.

Taking a deep breath, he said, “Still feels best to be in my own body.”

“Master, are you all right?” Paimon asked.

“I’m fine,” Xu Zimo shook his head.

“Master, what’s our next move?” the Infernal Archon asked.

“Wait for Heaven’s Will to descend, and take revenge,” Xu Zimo replied. “Before heading to the Outer Heavens, we need to expand our foundation. Only then can we survive up there.”

“Regarding destiny, Master should stay alert,” the Infernal Archon warned. “Our enemies will never sit back and watch you claim Heaven’s Will. Even if their true bodies can’t descend, they’ll find ways to interfere.”

“I’ve considered that,” Xu Zimo said with a smile. “It’s too conspicuous for you to follow me around. If you’re interested, go to my God World and train there.”

“We’ve got nothing better to do anyway. Even though we’re Saint Sovereigns, reaching the Infinite Dao Realm is still far off. We need to comprehend more,” the Infernal Archon said.

At their level, it wasn’t about absorbing more spiritforce or tempering the body, it all came down to one word: comprehension.

Comprehending the truths of the Dao and forming the Dao Fruit at the Infinite Dao Realm would transform them again. If they couldn’t comprehend, then no amount of spiritual energy would help.

“I’ll use the Heavenly Dao of my world to aid your comprehension, it should double your progress,” Xu Zimo said.

“Thank you, Master,” the Infernal Archon nodded. “With your current strength, Master, you’re nearly invincible in this world. If anything comes up, you can summon us anytime.”

Xu Zimo nodded and took all three into his God World.

Bone Demon’s strength was comparatively lower, barely at the Immortal Path. The Heavenly Dao would enhance him greatly.

Only Xu Zimo could afford to offer such powerful aid.

He looked at Lin Qiu’s body nearby. Because of the remnant soul, the two were still connected.

But Xu Zimo’s main consciousness controlled the clone.

“Want to be a main character?” Xu Zimo looked at Lin Qiu and smiled.

The God World hadn’t yet entered the cultivation era. Xu Zimo planned to put Lin Qiu into that world for a while.

When the new era came, Lin Qiu could help balance the world on Xu Zimo’s behalf.

After everyone entered the God World, Xu Zimo prepared to leave the Void Valley.

He wanted to visit the Eastern Continent again, it had been a long time since he returned to the True Martial Sacred Ground.

“Old friend, we’ll fight side by side again,” Xu Zimo said, patting the blade on his back.

The blade, Shadow Tyrant, trembled slightly as if expressing joy.

Traveling from the Ninelands Region to the Eastern Continent required a long teleportation journey.

The two were separated by the Endless Sky Sea.

The city closest to the Endless Sky Sea was Crown City, one of the Nine Cities.

The Supreme Crown was widely recognized as the strongest among the nine powers of the domain.

Xu Zimo returned to Tower City to use the teleportation formation.

Although there was a wanted poster for him, he didn’t bother hiding. He swaggered down the street openly.

As soon as he stepped into the teleportation formation of Tower City, several men appeared around the plaza.

“You sure it’s him?” one of them asked.

“Absolutely. The image on the poster is clear, I won’t forget it,” another replied.

“Crown City, huh? Looks like the Imperial Throne’s bounty is ours for the taking. Quick, report this to them before someone else does.”

“Big bro, why didn’t we just grab him? That bounty would’ve been huge!”

“Use your brain. Someone powerful enough to be wanted by the Imperial Throne? We wouldn’t last a single move against him. Don’t be greedy.”

“You’re right, big bro. Wise as always,” the others flattered.

The distance between Tower City and Crown City was substantial.

Crown City sat on the edge of the domain by the Endless Sky Sea.

After about half a month of travel, Xu Zimo finally emerged from the teleportation formation.
