Planet Tianfeng.
Inside an inn.
Chu Kuangren was indulging in his drinks while collecting as much information as he could about this region.
“Have you heard? The Pseudo Immortal from Dusty Sky Planet has built a formation and hid a remarkable Daoist Weapon within. Apparently, whoever is destined to overcome this formation will be entitled to that weapon.”
“Oh? The Dusty Sky Pseudo Immortal has forged another weapon?”
“Exactly. And he’s giving it away again.”
“Hiss. It has only been a few hundred years since he last gave a Daoist Weapon away. And now he has somehow procured enough resources to make another one? What an impressive weaponsmithing skill!”
“It’s no surprise for a Pseudo Immortal who has lived for this long. I also heard that the Dusty Sky Pseudo Immortal had claimed this as the most remarkable weapon he has ever made in his life. Many are flocking to it, including several Immortal Progenies…”
“Phew… The weapon must be incredible.”
Chu Kuangren listened in on the conversations nearby.
He contemplated for a moment.
Dusty Sky Pseudo Immortal, Daoist Weapon, and Immortal Progenies…
Needless to say, his interest was piqued. “Since I have nothing else better to do, I might as well go check it out.”
With this in mind, Chu Kuangren set sail towards the Dusty Sky Planet. Throughout his journey, he tried to collect as much information as he could about the Dusty Sky Pseudo Immortal.
The Dusty Sky Pseudo Immortal was one of the strongest cultivators of the Violet Gold Galaxy.
Pseudo Immortal was a title.
They were cultivators in the Violet Gold Galaxy who came infinitely close to becoming an Immortal.
However, unless a miracle happened, most Pseudo Immortals would never become an Immortal. That was because they had lived for too long, and their potentials were exhausted. They were destined to wander just an inch below the Immortal Realm, forever barred from ascending to a new level.
Alas, the Immortal Realm was unattainable to those people despite it being an arm’s reach away… Hence the title, Pseudo Immortal. It was an undeniable tragedy for those doomed with such a fate.
There were many Pseudo Immortals in this universe.
The Dusty Sky Pseudo Immortal was just one of many.
However, that Pseudo Immortal was a little different from the rest.
According to legends, the Dusty Sky Pseudo Immortal was once an Immortal Progeny himself. Yet, his potentials were eventually depleted, and he could not ascend into the Immortal Realm. For that, he had spent several millennia in sorrow.
At last, he decided to take up weaponsmithing. The Dusty Sky Pseudo Immortal spent thirty thousand years training to become one of the most astonishing weaponsmiths in the Violet Gold Galaxy.
Later on, he studied formations for several millennia and made an achievement out of it. He once used an entire planet as a formation to kill a notorious Pseudo Immortal. That incident had caused his reputation to soar since then.
After that, the Dusty Sky Pseudo Immortal found a planet to reside on. He spent most of his days forging Daoist Weapons as gifts to cultivators he deemed as fated. To him, it was all about accumulating good deeds. As a result, he became even more reputable in the Violet Gold Galaxy.
…
After months of sailing.
Chu Kuangren arrived at the Dusty Sky Planet.
There were many other battleships parked nearby. They were mostly cultivators who were after the remarkable Daoist Weapon forged by the Dusty Sky Pseudo Immortal.
The Daoist Weapons forged in the hands of the Dusty Sky Pseudo Immortal were much sought after even by the Heavenly Daoist Celestials.
However, the Dusty Sky Pseudo Immortal only had one rule.
He would only present the items to sky-prides whom he deemed was fated to have it!
Swish…
A ray of golden light darted across Dusty Sky Planet’s sky.
The golden light then manifested into two white-jaded pillars carved with a pair of dragons on them. A bright screen appeared between the pillars as if the pillars were a gate to another realm.
“Those who seeketh the Daoist Weapon, step through this gate.”
An ethereal voice echoed throughout the area.
The cultivators knew that was one of the Dusty Sky Pseudo Immortal’s tests.
“Woah. This dragon gate is one of the Dusty Sky Pseudo Immortal’s Daoist Weapon. It’s capable of seeing through one’s age and qualification. Only those who step through this gate are qualified to compete for the Daoist Weapon.”
A knowledgeable Daoist Celestial said.
Then, a figure dashed towards the dragon gate.
As he stood before the screen, rays of light shot out from the dragons’ eyes and shone upon the cultivator.
“One thousand and six hundred years old.”
One of the pale dragons said.
“Qualification, above average!”
The other dragon followed after.
“Proceed to enter!”
Both of the pale dragons uttered in unison.
The cultivator smiled with content and stepped into the screen.
“Phew. If I’m not wrong, that’s the strongest sky-pride of Planet Huangyun. He ascended into the Heavenly Imperial Realm at the mere age of one thousand and six hundred years old. No wonder the dragon gate has marked him as above average!”
A Daoist Celestial said.
The cultivators conversed with each other passionately through their Emperor Thoughts.
Chu Kuangren was listening to their discussions with his Emperor Thought too.
He was in no rush to enter. Having just exited the Firmament Star, it was a great opportunity for him to familiarize himself with the great sky-prides of Violet Gold Galaxy.
Swish…
Another person had come to enter the dragon gate.
The lights flashed upon him.
“One hundred one thousand and twelve years old.”
“Qualification, below average.”
“Entry denied.”
The newly-arrived person was a Heavenly Imperial. However, he had only ascended into his current realm after one hundred thousand years worth of cultivation. As a result, the dragon gate had marked him as below average and denied him entry.
“Screw you. I’m entering anyway!”
The cultivator turned furious and dashed into the gate.
“Roar!”
The pale dragons roared and unleashed a terrifying burst of aura. Scorching white flame spewed out from their mouths.
In a matter of seconds, the Heavenly Imperial was reduced to less than ashes.
The rest of the cultivators gulped in horror.
“That’s terrifying.”
“That power is definitely in the Great Daoist Celestial Realm.”
“Is this how powerful a Pseudo Immortal is?”
The crowd gasped.
Chu Kuangren pondered deeply in his warship. “The power of that flame isn’t much weaker than the wrath of the Blood God. That’s an impressive Daoist Weapon.”
After heeding the Heavenly Imperial’s lesson, no other cultivators dared to make a scene.
The eager participants were now queuing obediently as they waited for their test. One by one, those who were deemed qualified entered the gate.
“Three thousand six hundred and ten years old.”
“Qualification, excellent!”
At that moment, one of the cultivators earned a surprising remark.
The crowd immediately shifted their attention to the person in shock.
“Excellent!”
“Holy sh*t! That’s the first sky-pride marked as excellent amongst so many before him. Wait a minute. Isn’t that Zi Yunfan, the Eighth Seat cultivator of Planet Zi?!”
“What? You mean Planet Zi’s Seats?! Doesn’t that make him an Immortal Progeny?!”
“No wonder the dragons have marked him as excellent.”
The excellent sky-pride was a purple-robed youngster, who possessed remarkably handsome features that were further accentuated by his faded violet eyes.
He was the Eighth Seat of Planet Zi, Zi Yunfan.
Zi Yunfan was unsurprised by his evaluation, and he continued pacing towards the gate amidst the shocking gaze by the crowd.
Then, another gold light appeared. This time, it was a gloomy youngster with a pair of elongated brows.
“It’s the Ninth Seat of Planet Jin, Jin Jie!”
One of the cultivators exclaimed.
The white-jaded dragons looked across at him.
“Three thousand five hundred years old.”
“Qualification, excellent!”
“Proceed to enter.”
Another excellent evaluation, another Immortal Progeny!
There were several other sky-prides marked equally excellent after Zi Yunfan and Jin Jie.
One of them was a swordsman who had a dark sword strapped to his handle. He was neither from Planet Zi nor Planet Jin.
Yet, he was still marked as excellent by the dragons, which made many cultivators curious.
The arrivals of the sky-prides put a smile across Chu Kuangren’s face. “Interesting. It looks like this trip is well worth the effort.”
He had felt lonely for far too long.
Finally, it was time for some excitement.
Just look at them.
There were so many sky-prides from this vast and endless universe!
A couple of them must be able to put on an interesting show.
