Celestial Master： I Have an Otherworld

"I’d like to hear more details."

"Look at the sky." Master Jiuyuan pointed with his hand and said:

"How many stars are in the sky?"

"The stars shift positions, constantly revolving, but only the Ziwei North Star Monarch remains still, surrounded by countless stars."

"As cultivators, we seek the Ziwei star hidden by the multitude of stars, so that we may touch the immortal True Spirit."

"Now, watch!"

"I shall perform an art!"

"Boom!"

Fang Zheng felt a slight tremor in his Sea of Consciousness, as a compass encompassing the four extremes and infinite stars appeared out of thin air. As the compass rotated, various Dharma Gates emerged in his mind one by one.

The Celestial Secret Compass!

The Celestial Secret Compass mentioned by Master Jiuyuan turned out to be a manifestation of thoughts, not a physical object!

Though it was a phantom, it possessed the qualities of a magical artifact, resembling an oversized cultivation technique package, implanting all of Master Jiuyuan’s lifelong knowledge into Fang Zheng’s Sea of Consciousness.

All that was left was for him to gradually unpack it.

Such an incredible method was truly beyond imagination, unheard of, and likely only achievable by the world’s topmost Masters.

......

Outside.

At the moment Fang Zheng touched the corpse’s finger, he himself froze in place, his eyes vacant, as if he had lost consciousness.

"Young Master!"

Xiang Xiu stepped forward urgently and said:

"What’s happening?"

"Don’t worry." Chen Jiuniang’s beautiful eyes flickered, and she spoke slowly:

"If I’m not mistaken, this should be the legendary method of empowerment by infusion, where Young Master Fang is receiving Master Jiuyuan’s knowledge transmission."

"Empowerment by infusion? Knowledge transmission?" Xiang Xiu was puzzled:

"Wasn’t Master Jiuyuan dead for hundreds of years already?"

"Yes." Chen Jiuniang’s face showed doubt:

"Theoretically, it’s impossible, but this seems exactly like what I read in the ancient texts. Could there be another reason?"

"Who cares what it is." Uncle Zheng struggled to get up and spoke in a muffled voice:

"Just separate them!"

"No." Chen Jiuniang shook her head:

"If my guess is correct, their auras are already intertwined with the array here, forcibly separating them could have unpredictable consequences."

"Moreover..."

"If it really is a knowledge transmission, separating them would ruin Young Master Fang’s great opportunity, wouldn’t it?"

"Then..." Xiang Xiu reached out:

"Should we just stand by and watch?"

"If it really is a knowledge transmission, it won’t be quick. Many masters take several hours." Chen Jiuniang spoke slowly:

"Let’s wait and see."

"Whoosh..."

Before she finished speaking, Master Jiuyuan’s corpse in the field suddenly trembled, as if hundreds of years’ worth of time had released in an instant.

The previously indestructible corpse began to decay and disintegrate at a speed visible to the naked eye, turning to dust and dissipating with a gentle breeze.

"Uh..."

Chen Jiuniang was momentarily stunned:

"Seems like it wasn’t a knowledge transmission."

"Phew..." Fang Zheng exhaled turbid air, his hollow look regained clarity, and for a moment, countless thoughts surged in his mind, then were forcibly suppressed.

He moved his limbs slightly, a complex expression on his face.

Master Jiuyuan not only compressed all his knowledge into the Celestial Secret Compass within Fang Zheng’s mind but also transmitted the remaining essence in his physical body.

Though not much,

And with significant loss,

It still advanced his Elemental Thunder Skill from the early stage of the Realm of Six Thunders directly to the Sixth Thunder Perfection stage.

Just one more step,

And he could attain the Leakless True Body!

Bending down, he picked up the Jade Scroll on the ground and spoke slowly:

"Let’s go!"

Master Jiuyuan was a Master, a Martial Sect Leader, and lived through six cycles of the sexagenary cycle.

That is to say,

Over three hundred years old!

Though he didn’t live that long and died prematurely, he lived through three cycles, and due to his status, encountered many cultivation techniques.

He also explored mysteries and learned many ancient secrets.

The multitude of Dharma Gates and experiences thrust upon Fang Zheng, even stored within the Celestial Secret Compass, left him momentarily overwhelmed.

His consciousness felt dazed, as though he hadn’t fully woken from sleep.

However, the gains were rich, and once he fully unraveled the contents of the Celestial Secret Compass, it would equate to an accumulation that could rival that of a Master.

An inheritance?

Never lacking again!

The four of them emerged from the cave, Fang Zheng took a deep breath of the sky, suppressing the unsettled thoughts in his heart, and bowed toward Chen Jiuniang and the others:

"Though mountains and rivers lie between us, we must part ways."

"Hmm?"

His ears trembled, halting his actions, and he turned his head toward the dense forest:

"Someone’s there!"

"Oh!"

A voice filled with surprise came from the woods:

"Such keen perception, no wonder he managed to escape from several Great Zhou Celestial Martial Artists with the Chen Family’s Ninth Lady. Truly remarkable."

As he spoke, three figures slowly emerged from the forest.

The leading person wore flowing white clothes, unstained by dust, with long hair fluttering in the wind, possessing chiseled, stern features, and a sword at his waist like a Jianghu swordsman.

Behind him, one person stood holding a spear, exuding formidable presence, and another, towering at eight feet, was wrapped in black cloth.

The spearman had crossed paths with Fang Zheng, Yang Huai; the other, though nameless, exuded an aura suggesting he too was a Great Zhou Celestial Martial Artist.

Neither of these two were ordinary figures.

Each of them, in places like Gu’an County, could cause tremors with each step, yet in the presence of the white-clad young master, they unconsciously bowed slightly.

"Qian Fusong!"

Upon seeing the arrivals, Fang Zheng’s eyes twitched:

"It’s you!"

"It is I indeed." Qian Fusong cupped his hands:

"My humble name is not worth speaking of, might I ask how should I address you? To contend with three at once with such ease, you must not be an ordinary person."

"Qian Fusong." Before Fang Zheng could speak, Chen Jiuniang bit her silver teeth:

"You..."

"How did you find your way here?"

"Tsk tsk..." Qian Fusong tilted his head, smiling:

"Ever since beholding your beauty, Ninth Lady, I’ve been unable to forget. Knowing you’re here, how could I not come?"

"You’re here for her, unrelated to us." Xiang Xiu suddenly interrupted:
