Chapter 367: There is always something beyond
Luo Wanyi admired his optimism and asked, “Regarding the outcome between Yuanshuo and Daqin, let’s talk about that later. What about you in the future? Can’t you return to Yuanshuo? Are you just going to teach at Xitu?”
“What is the purpose of Tongtian Pavilion?”
Su Yun looked up at the sky and smiled, “To explore a path that leads directly to the other side. Luo Yujin spent his entire life and thousands of years of wisdom planning to ascend the world, allowing our world to ascend directly to the immortal realm. Although he was interrupted in the end, I don’t believe that the world above us is the immortal realm.”
Luo Wanyi looked up and saw an extremely magnificent world floating quietly in the sky, like a continent floating in the air.
The powerful magnetic force of this continent had already affected the weather of their planet. Although Winged Dragon and other surviving beings were not gods and demons, many gods and demons still had the ability to control the weather. Therefore, they traveled to various places, trying to calm down the strange climate.
The outer world looked spectacular, much larger than the world they were in.
Looking into the distance, there wasn’t much that could be seen. Only the edge of the continent was visible, a vast expanse of blue, like an ocean.
However, it was difficult to imagine the vastness of that ocean from such a distance.
Luo Yujin’s attempt to ascend the world was not a complete failure. In fact, their world was still drifting towards the so-called “immortal realm.”
“Many people already call it the immortal realm and believe that there are immortals there.”
Su Yun said, “But many scholars from the Sword Pavilion and I discovered something when activating the Seventy-Two Heavenly Caves. The vitality of one of the Heavenly Caves is quietly strengthening. In other words…”
Luo Wanyi had been busy with political affairs these days and was unaware of Su Yun’s experiments with the scholars from the Sword Pavilion. However, she was a smart person and immediately understood what Su Yun meant. She probed, “In other words, that place is not actually the immortal realm, but one of the Seventy-Two Heavenly Caves?”
Su Yun nodded and praised, “No wonder you were selected by Xitu and competed with me for the position of Pavilion Master. This world outside is not the immortal realm, but just like the Heavenly Market Enclosure, it is one of the Heavenly Caves.”
Luo Wanyi’s mind was in chaos, and her thoughts were muddled. After a moment, she smiled bitterly, “My father spent his whole life, thousands of years of planning, plotting against so many gods and demons, and even sacrificed himself. In the end, it was all in vain?”
She stared blankly, looking at the world outside, the bitterness in her heart known only to herself.
Although she opposed Luo Yujin and resented him for using the people of Daqin and Xitu as sacrifices to resurrect the people of the previous world, she still regarded Luo Yujin as her father.
Luo Wanyi rested her right hand on the railing, supporting her forehead, smiling with tears in her eyes, murmuring, “His previous life summoned the Heavenly Market Enclosure, which is a Heavenly Cave. Now, instead of summoning a Heavenly Cave, he brought our world to the side of another Heavenly Cave! For this, you completely sacrificed your own life, Father, was it worth it?”
“It was worth it!”
Su Yun’s eyes sparkled as he looked up at the world outside, his words filled with excitement. “Wanyi, do you know why our interruption of Luo Yujin’s ascension did not stop our world from colliding with this Heavenly Cave?”
Luo Wanyi put aside her melancholy and immediately said, “It’s because of inertia! Also, our world was captured by the magnetic force of the Heavenly Cave from outside, falling into its magnetic field!”
Su Yun shook his head and said, “The Heavenly Cave from outside looks close, but it is actually far away. The magnetic force of the Heavenly Cave from outside cannot capture our world. As for inertia, it is possible according to common sense, but have you noticed? This Heavenly Cave from outside is accompanied by several suns that are rotating around our world. This is not inertia! What does this mean?”
Luo Wanyi was completely stunned, her long eyelashes fluttering up and down, her eyes clear, but her brow filled with confusion. “What does this mean?”
Su Yun smiled slightly, “This means that the Heavenly Market Enclosure and the Heavenly Cave from outside are actually one entity. Father’s ascension only consumed the original power of Winged Dragon and the other ninety-six gods and demons, bringing our world to this place and connecting the Heavenly Market Enclosure with the Heavenly Cave from outside! And now, our world is being connected to this Heavenly Cave as an accessory!”
Luo Wanyi’s mind was buzzing, as if countless thunderbolts were striking her brain, burning her mind.
“No, that’s not right!”
She suddenly remembered something and hurriedly said, “The connection is a process! Our world has not yet connected with the Heavenly Cave from outside. The fact that several suns are rotating around our world indicates that the connection has already been completed! But we are still approaching that world, how is this possible…”
Su Yun showed an encouraging expression.
Luo Wanyi suddenly had a flash of inspiration and exclaimed, “The North Sea! It’s the North Sea of the Heavenly Market Enclosure!”
The Heavenly Market Enclosure had a North Sea, which floated in the sky. This ocean followed the Heavenly Market Enclosure and was a part of it.
If one stood outside, they could see the edge of the North Sea disappearing into the void, unable to see the horizon.
And just like the Heavenly Gate Ghost Market, anyone who tried to find the end of this ocean would eventually get lost and unable to find their way back.
“Wanyi is indeed clever.”
Su Yun clapped his hands and laughed, “During this time, I had the people in the Tongtian Pavilion observe and draw the edge of the North Sea and the edge of the ocean of the Heavenly Cave from outside. I believe we will have results soon. Wanyi may not know, but I lived near the North Sea in Qingyu Town when I was young. I often went fishing at sea with my parents. Later, I would often go to the seaside alone to catch some Green Rainbow Crabs to sell for money.”Ying Ying fluttered her paper wings and flew up, saying leisurely, “If our guess is correct, then the ocean edge that Yi Chaohua and the others have drawn should coincide with each other.” n/(o(-V.-E-)l–b/-1(-n
Su Yun nodded and laughed, “Another incredible thing is that we might be able to enter that pocket world directly from the surface of the North Sea.”
Ying Ying took out a pen and paper, quickly calculated in the air, listed a series of equations, and said, “Our two worlds are adjacent in space, and it will take another year and two months at the current speed. But if we go through the North Sea, it won’t take many days before we appear on the ocean of that pocket world.”
Luo Wanyi finally understood and exclaimed, “You mean, you plan to set sail on the North Sea and head to that unknown pocket world?”
Su Yun laughed, “Isn’t that what the Tongtian Pavilion should do? As the Pavilion Master, I should explore the secrets of the world. Wanyi, you are also a member of the Tongtian Pavilion, aren’t you curious about the pocket world beyond the sky?”
Ying Ying said leisurely, “People of the Tongtian Pavilion all have their unique strengths, unparalleled in the world. But the necessary condition for the Pavilion Master is to be able to fight and endure. The Tongtian Pavilion already has Master Su, it doesn’t need another female Pavilion Master who can fight and endure. As a member of the Tongtian Pavilion, Wanyi, you need to have your own unique skills.”
Luo Wanyi was stunned, she understood Su Yun’s meaning.
Su Yun and Ying Ying were inviting her to explore the pocket world beyond the sky, to explore the secrets of the pocket world, she was indeed tempted. The unknown was terrifying to her, but the attraction was greater.
However…
Luo Wanyi hesitated in her heart, shaking her head, “I am now the emperor of Daqin, Daqin is in need of revival, I cannot leave!”
“What a pity.”
Su Yun laughed, “Perhaps there are immortals in the pocket world beyond the sky, or spirit masters who are more brilliant than us. If you don’t go, all this will have nothing to do with you.”
Luo Wanyi hesitated, unable to decide for a moment.
At this time, Yi Chaohua came over excitedly, “Pavilion Master, it’s exactly the same!”
Su Yun hurriedly walked down from the Wusheng Pavilion to greet him. Luo Wanyi was about to follow, but the bell for class rang, and Luo Wanyi had to go into the pavilion.
In the Wusheng Pavilion, the Wusheng man Jiang Zushi, whose injuries had not yet healed, limped over and whispered, “Your Majesty, the revival of Daqin is a matter of twenty years. There are officials from the Daqin cabinet to manage it, there won’t be much chaos. But the pocket world beyond the sky is the rise and fall of the next hundred or even thousand years.”
Upon hearing this, Luo Wanyi made up her mind, “I will go to the North Sea. However, I will lead the scholars of Daqin to explore there, and I will not join him.”
Jiang Zushi showed a relieved smile, “This is the Holy Emperor of our Daqin! In the future, Your Majesty can be crowned again.”
His eyes flickered, “Your Majesty, the national teacher said, if the Pavilion Master of Tongtian Pavilion can die on the way to explore the pocket world beyond the sky, then the only one who is qualified to inherit the position of Pavilion Master is Your Majesty.”
Luo Wanyi glanced at him without saying a word.
Jiang Zushi said, “Even if Your Majesty cannot be the Pavilion Master, you must split the Tongtian Pavilion and bring the members of our overseas Tongtian Pavilion into the new Tongtian Pavilion. Now there are only seven elders left in the Tongtian Pavilion, and only Taisui is a god and demon. Taisui is incompetent, and the other elders are not to be feared. If Your Majesty agrees, the national teacher can do a lot for Your Majesty.”
Luo Wanyi’s eyes flickered, she said with a smile, “Wusheng man, what do you think of what God Emperor Yu Daoyuan told you?”
Jiang Zushi said decisively, “The overseas Tongtian Pavilion must break with the Tongtian Pavilion, we can’t let Yuan Shuo take advantage of us anymore!”
Luo Wanyi said, “If I don’t agree, what will you and God Emperor Yu Daoyuan do?”
Jiang Zushi bowed, “If Your Majesty does not agree, Your Majesty is the bloodline of the remnants of the human demon. The God Emperor and I will choose a new emperor.”
Luo Wanyi flicked her sleeves and walked towards the classroom, “Then why bother asking me? I’m going to class, you go down first!”
Jiang Zushi bowed and limped away.
A few days later, the Tongtian Pavilion finally built the three ships that Su Yun wanted.
These three ships were not large, but they were forged according to the heavenly ship, with the added function of sailing on the sea.
When these three ships were built, Su Yun handed over the official seal of the Deputy Historian of the Supervision Department to Xing Jiangmu, left a large amount of money, said goodbye to his good friend, and laughed, “Don’t lose my prestige of Yuan Shuo.”
Xing Jiangmu bowed, “With the example of the adult, Jiangmu dare not slack off for a day. There is one more thing, the Emperor of Daqin happened to meet me and asked me to warn the adult to be careful.”
Su Yun was about to board the ship, and was stunned when he heard this, “Luo Wanyi asked me to be careful? Be careful of what?”
