Chapter 1021: The Three Cities

"Brazen audaciousness of the selfishly ignorant," Liu Suyin said. Her indifferent tone quivered with an icy chill, immersed in aggression that sent s.h.i.+vers down one's spine. "Do you not understand that this is your destiny? From the moment you obtained that Celestial Jade Key you wear, your life's path was set for greatness beyond anything you can imagine. Entering the World Between the Fold, acquiring the baptism of the Endless Spatial Channelyou exist to ensure the continued existence of the countless lives of your world and beyond it! That's the greatest benefit in this entire world."

Liu Suyin's chest rose and fell with short breaths. Her exasperation was evident to all, and she firmly believed every single word that she spoke. Even her typical emotionless state and tone were fracturing at its seams.

Wei Wuyin's eyes narrowed slightly; he naturally wouldn't become a compa.s.sionate self-sacrificing tool for anyone. He wasn't a saint. At this point, Wei Wuyin could tell that Liu Suyin was mad with jealousy, hence the explosive reaction.

Why, exactly?

Within the spiritual jade's abundant texts, there were many rules and details clearly explained. One of these rules was the stated requirement to reach the Grand Convergence Spatial Resonance prior to ascending for a chance to become a True Destined Voyager. However, in a Destined cultivator's lifetime as a mortal, they were only allowed three chances to obtain the necessary blessing to pursue this type of transcendent cultivation foundation.

Once during the Astral Core Realm's early-stages, the World Sea Phase, Sky Ruler Phase, or Soul Idol Phase; once during the Spatial Resonance Phase, the Fourth Stage of the Astral Core Realm; once during the Realm World Phase, the Seventh Stage of the Astral Core Realm.

According to the text, this allowed a cultivator to acquire a tenth-ripple Spatial Resonance, their bodies refined by the Law of s.p.a.ce's essential power changing their innate const.i.tution and talent, and this was the bare minimum that allowed them to cultivate the Endless Voyage of Converged Destiny Cultivation Method. This cultivation allowed one to reach the Grand Convergence Spatial Resonance, a needed requirement to control the Endless Void Mirror.

The method was insidiously difficult to cultivate. There was a sharp warning that advised against using alchemical products to bypa.s.s this requirement. Supposedly, products like the ninth-grade Spatial Divine Resonance Pill were ineffective. While this product greatly enhanced one's Spatial Resonance, capable of bringing them the tenth-ripple, it lacked the baptism that changed one's innate const.i.tution to the Law of s.p.a.ce.

According to the text, everyone who tried to do so using such a method had been unsuccessful, and horribly so, being consumed by their spatial energies running rampant and devouring them. Wei Wuyin was skeptical that alchemy couldn't solve this. Fortunately, it didn't matter to him.

As for Liu Suyin, she had tried three times and clearly failed to open up the Endless Spatial Channel, unable to receive the baptism of the Law of s.p.a.ce. A shortcoming that likely instigated her current heated response originating from a desire to take the leaders.h.i.+p role as the future Void Voyage Sect's Sect Master!

"If you find it so great, then do it yourself. You, the heavens, h.e.l.l, or the G.o.ds themselves will never decide what MY destiny is!" Wei Wuyin coldly spat. A terrifying aura of dignity and pride began to diffuse into the room. In this room without wind, Wei Wuyin's robes fluttered wildly and his silver eyes glinted with a sinful light.

Ye Ziling swallowed heavily, her chest stuffy and nearly causing her to choke. However, even that was suppressed!

Liu Suyin's eyes violently contracted! She, as an Ascended being, felt her mind twist and shake from those gleaming, piercing silver eyes. Drawn into them, she felt her heart pound and pound like war drums.

Liu Yinlan's eyebrows knitted tightly together. To be honest, she was going to remind Wei Wuyin that he didn't have a choice. He should've sworn these oaths prior to attempting the channel, and according to the laws established by the three Ascended Sovereigns, all Destined that refused the call despite being chosen must be refined by the Endless Void Mirrora death sentence.

However, Liu Suyin's oversight had launched a wench into the order of things. Wei Wuyin had already obtained the qualifications to become a True Destined Voyager, the third in the last twenty thousand years. The other two, however, both failed to cultivate the method and were subsequently devoured by s.p.a.ce itself due to cultivation deviation.

Besides herself, who was forced to take this position, there was no one else with the qualifications. How could Liu Yinlan simply kill her only chance at freedom? For revenge? But, Wei Wuyin also obtained benefits of the Endless Void Mirror, expending unimaginable resources to open up that link. There was no way that he could ever simply leavenot in life or death.

Looking at Wei Wuyin, she felt a mild discomforting feeling but nothing more. As a being at her level, the Mystic Dao's will was sufficient to counter an underdeveloped sinful aura of a mere mortal.

"Okay." Liu Yinlan calmly said. She had agreed!

Wei Wuyin's aura originating from his Bloodline of Sin began to settle down. He was shocked that his Bloodline of Sin had grown abnormally active, a sight that hadn't happened before. There was a feeling in his mind, heart, and soul that a turning point of destiny was bound to happen. But this feeling was heavy and dark as if alluding to a great upcoming failure.

He felt this feeling didn't originate from the Bloodline of Sin but from the Celestial Eyes of Spiritual Divinity formations that were etched into his Sea of Consciousness, Eyes, and Mind's Eye. An alert of eventual sorrow.

Why did he feel like this?

"Liu Suyin will show you the Void Voyage Sect, and the benefits of cultivating here. You'll have twelve months to decide your destinyto serve as the leading figure of supreme protectors of the Sealed Regions and protect countless lives or have it all end." After saying those words, Liu Yinlan gave a gentle smile unbefitting her ultimatum.

She walked a few feet from Ye Ziling. "Should you decide not to, Wandering Destined Ye will take your spot. She's received the blessing as well, and the only reason she's not a True Destined Voyager is that you're still alive. " Before anyone could react or respond, a burst of silver light immediately followed, encapsulating them all, surging upwards as a wad of light. Then, the light diverged into two after reaching a certain point in the sky, heading to different locations.

-----

In the World Between the Fold, there were three cities established throughout, separated by an unimaginably large s.p.a.ce capable of exceeding entire starfields in length. They were the City of Endless, the City of Voyage, and the City of Guardians.

The City of Endless was the headquarters of the Void Voyage Sect, run by the Void Voyage Sect's Sect Master. The City of Endless was not as endless as the name suggested. It was, however, unfathomably vast, sufficient to eclipse the total surface area of three average large-sized planets combined, and housed tens of trillions of cultivators with relative ease. There was seemingly no lack of s.p.a.ce, with s.p.a.cious roads and buildings constructed throughout.

It housed the least number of inhabitants out of the three cities, but the greatest number of Ascended level Destined, the least number of Seekers, and a large number of their descendants. The main force of the Void Voyage Sect, tasked with ensuring the safety of the Sealed Regions sealing nodes.

The City of Voyage was the largest out of the three, home to the most cultivators and descendants of those beyond the Sealed Regions. They rarely interacted with the City of Endless except under special circ.u.mstances, such as the transference of people after overpopulation. Those termed as 'Seekers' could be found here, almost exclusively housing those from outside the Sealed Regions.

The City of Guardians was the smallest city, meant for training Destined and Seekers. A cultivation haven designed to strengthen both the City of Endless and the City of Voyage. However, entering required special permission from certain high-level figures.

Forty-two days later

A comet of silver light finally came to a stop after an insidiously long journey within the World Between the Fold. Two figures stumbled out, landing roughly on the ground. Fortunately, the two figures swiftly regained their posture.

"That took so long! How far did we travel?" Wei Wuyin's annoyed voice resounded. After being sent away by Liu Yinlan, they had stayed in a wad of spatial power, traversing across the World Between the Fold's expansive area. Despite asking this question, he knew they had traveled enough to cross the Aeternal Sky Starfield at least seven times. Unfortunately, they were also far slower than an Earthly Saint, barely equivalent to an Ascended being of the lowest strength.

"..." Liu Suyin remained silent, her emotions had regulated after the long trip, and she felt no need to speak.

Wei Wuyin shrugged; he inspected the surroundings and discovered a city as grand and impressive as the City of Endless. If the spiritual jade's information was right, this should be the City of Guardians!
