Qi Cultivation Starting from the Repair Panel

"Leaving the pass?"

Hao Qing was taken aback, his expression showing a hint of hesitation, as he cupped his hands and bowed:

"The other side of the Vast Universe is truly perilous. Given your unique status as the Heavenly Judge, if there is any important matter, you may direct me to handle it for you."

Upon hearing this, Chu Zheng couldn't help but glance at Hao Qing with some surprise.

For all living creatures of the Great Universe, the other side of the Boundary is a deathtrap, and not even the Ancestral Realm can retreat unscathed.

The fact that Hao Qing could say such words indicates he has placed life and death aside.

This is evidently not because of him, but because of the Moonlight Immortal Ancestor, his loyalty is evident.

"No need, I shall return shortly, I won't linger for too long."

Chu Zheng waved his hand and asked, "Are there any prohibitions on entering and exiting the Boundary?"

This question was the main reason for his contact with these cultivators of the Immortal Alliance.

This involved accessing two realms, not a trivial matter.

The last time he entered the Vast Universe, it was from the Chaos Sea, and Wu Tong sent him there. He has not yet experienced entering the Vast Universe from the Boundary alone, necessitating prior knowledge of some details, as there could very likely be accidents.

"The Boundary only suppresses the evil demons of the Universe, it has no effect on us, we may freely come and go."

After Hao Qing spoke, he asked with some hesitation: "Should this matter be reported to the Master?"

Chu Zheng was somewhat surprised, for this matter he hadn't intended to conceal from the Moonlight Immortal Ancestor, and even at this moment, the Moonlight Immortal Ancestor might be watching him.

But Hao Qing's words implied something entirely different.

"Now, the situation is tumultuous, the Master is entangled with various affairs, it's better not to disturb him."

Chu Zheng shook his head, not wanting to trouble the Moonlight Immortal Ancestor too much.

"I understand, Heavenly Judge, please be cautious in all matters. If there's anything to be done, Hao Qing is willing to offer his humble service."

Hao Qing said no more, bowed working, and continued guarding the Heaven Pass, no longer inquiring.

He did not further inquire what exactly Chu Zheng was going to do, his conduct with others followed its own measure.

After the questioning, Chu Zheng left Heaven Pass straight away, after the brief time it took to drink a cup of tea, he had arrived before the Boundary.

He squatted down, his fingertip brushed along the slightly mottled Ancient Bronze Iron Wall, chill climbing up from his fingertip like a deep autumnal cold spring, chilling to the bone.

Here, the Yin Qi was terrifyingly dense, ordinary True Immortal lingering at the pass would lose lifespan, and the Immortal Venerable couldn't stay long, but it had no effect on Chu Zheng.

This was unrelated to Qi-refining Technique, rather it originated from the mysterious Repair Panel.

The first time he touched the Boundary, he felt fragments of time and space, as if witnessing past and future, only unfortunately interrupted by Martial Ancestor Yan Feng's appearance.

Those memory images were too fragmented to even leave traces in memory, most of which he had now forgotten.

Chu Zheng rose, let out a long breath, retrieved Blood Jade from his bosom, and after pondering for a while, sent a message to Song Lingxue:

[How have you been lately?]

The illusion, half-real half-fake at the Heart Burning Corridor, indeed disturbed his mind.

If he truly was the reincarnation of Ancestral Dao, then Song Lingqing who possesses a Martial Seed, as well as Song Lingxue now, have inexorable connections with Xue Qing.

Now his mind was somewhat muddled, the memories with Xue Qing increasingly vivid, almost as if he truly spent bygone days in Near Immortal Realm of Ancient Times with Xue Qing, leaving him unable to distinguish truth from illusion.

After sending the message, he didn't wait for Song Lingxue's reply, and stepped across the Boundary, entering the domain of the Vast Universe.

...

...

The moment of stepping across the Boundary, Chu Zheng seemed to step into emptiness, falling into Heaven and Earth, a icy suction from below as if made of innumerable ghostly hands dragging at his ankles.

Chu Zheng didn't feel surprised, letting this force pull him into the Nine Netherworld.

Long before, he already knew the location of the Vast Universe wasn't within the same level as the Great Universe, rather akin to two realms, distinguished like black and white.

The potent Yin evil energy rushed towards him, quickly absorbed by the Repair Panel, posing no harm to Chu Zheng.

It was a while before he landed, surrounded by desolate terrain with no hint of vegetation, a cold sun hung in the air, embedded in a light gray sky, devoid of warmth.

On the horizon afar twisted and deformed, torn by several sword marks, presumably left by previous realm-crossing strong individuals.

Before him, the world still retained scars of a battle, strong beings' War Blood spilled, after more than a hundred years, still retaining warmth, not eroded by the evil Qi of the Vast Universe, possessing a terrifyingly strong Dao rhyme.

No signs of evil demons in sight, some energy fluctuations left in this place would cause significant damage to Yin Gods, the killing intent left by strong individuals would crush all weak living creatures.

Chu Zheng squinted and sensed for a moment, suddenly realizing something amiss.

All along, he had been aware of the presence of Heavenly Fate on him, but at the moment of entering Vast Universe, the Heavenly Fate on him changed, decreasing significantly.

His complexion shifted slightly, as it concerned Heavenly Fate, he dared not be careless, immediately soaring skyward, tearing through the Void, rushing towards the Boundary.

Moments later, he again reached the Boundary, returning within the scope of the Great Universe.

At this instant, the Heavenly Fate beside him restored to its original state, without any anomaly.

A flash of incomprehension passed through Chu Zheng's eyes, after shuttling back and forth between two realms near the Boundary for a while, he finally confirmed one thing.

The Heavenly Fate within the Vast Universe and the Great Universe evidently has a considerable disparity, the Heavenly Fate between the two realms doesn't connect.
