Chapter 15 Nether Realm

The dark guild now knows about a demi god realm expert in glory city other than Ye Mo, but judging by how I avoided a direct confrontation, they are not sure, if it's just a law weapon or a person.

Nie Li has left the city in two days to venture outside. The people from Tian Yuan plateau will be here by 2 weeks at least. May be they will meet each other?. Since Ye Han was killed, the information about glory city will not be known by families over at nether realm, but now that dark guild, experienced such a disastrous defeat, I am not sure if they will sell us out. Nie Li may stay for a long time at Jade seal family.

Xiao Ning'er and I set out after a week. Ye Ziyun also came. But only after a day of journey, she mentioned that, she lied to her father saying she will be in seclusion for a long time. After we ventured out we flew along the way, occasionally stopping by the night. Transforming to girl, I obtained the permission to share the tent with them.

What a convenient ability.

Later, along the way, we fought with many demon beasts in black gold and legend realm. Whenever they needed a hand, I was there, so the girls have a lot of experience by now since they fought fearlessly. I also presented my soul spirit liquid to Ye Ziyun, so along with Ning'er, she reached Black gold rank 5 while Ning'er entered Legend realm 1. We finally reached endless desert. But we carried Ziyun and used movement technique to fly through and reach the place of a ruins by half a day. But there was only a seen of destruction, but we still managed to obtain a large chunk of meterorite iron just after inspecting a broken lion statue..

I have considered not seeing the desert palace here similar to what Nie Li experienced. So I took out a notebook and wrote "Temporal Demon Spirit Book is 600km to the east." And used LoHP. It mentioned that there are many flaws regarding manufacturing to my calligraphy and one of interest and that is 'information is wrong and is about 13045 km to north West.' That's by my maximum speed is a 4 day continous flying journey. So...

"Ladies, you must have been exhausted here right? Take a 4 day rest?, I will transport you there?"

" Why 4 day? What do you mean transport us?" Ziyun asks.

"4 day to next place.." I activated my world and placed them both inside. Ziyun was astonished to see their inside a minor world. Ning'er explained about it and they went to the beautiful mansion created there.

I activated my energy absorption, which I disabled for so long. I could feel the potential energy over myself and surrounding light, heat and even sound energy being absorbed and getting converted to physical, chemical and soul force energy to myself. I felt refreshed. I then flew over with my maximum speed but it didn't create any sonic boom even after speeding past sonic level. I rested for an hour after every day.

These days several flying demonic beasts tried to attack me but they got quickly disposed off. After checking with LoHP few more times at the end of about 4 and a half day, I arrived at the isolated Island.

I have landed and sent both the girls out. We were infront of a massive barrier.

The girls tried their strongest attacks. But couldn't enter the seal.

I commented from the back." Don't bother. Even if you are a million times stronger, you won't be able to budge that barrier."

" How? Million times?..."

"It's a divine barrier, capable of with standing multiple attacks of a martial ancestor realm person."

" What realm is it? How come we don't know? "

" That's about 6 major realms above what you currently are, Ye Ziyun. You didn't heard of it because,..... it was in an ancient book inside the ruins from orchid city...".

Xiao Ning'er looking at me with a squinted eye seeing me lying without battling an eye.

" So how do we open it?"

I took out my two temporal demon spirit pages.

I input a little bit of law power and soul power to study the fluctuations. I can sense an entirely different law from it. The power of space time law. I memorized the profound scientific theories about time in previous life and then about the concept of space time continnum and the concepts mentioned in the plot about it's cyclical nature and fixing space time. So I could sense the new law circulating around me and I absorbed and refined it to my soul realm. After about a day of cultivation, I have reached the limit of divine realm. The peak in both body and soul and usuage of so more than 10 laws including space time law.

I then inputted the law energy and soul energy into the temporal demon spirit pages which amplified and attacked the barrier to create a hole. We quickly entered and we saw a mesmerising scenery. The green all around, space time elk moving over circular holes in space and appearing at different places in different time. I captured one using space time energy and extracted its demon spirit temporarily through a rune I wrote over its head. The demon spirit was sent into my soul realm after which my soul form absorbed its properties. Combining with the earlier space demon spirit power, the new space time ability has also generated.

I put the space elk spirit back to its body and gave it some elixir to eat as a compensation.

I then took out my temporal pages and once again used my understanding of law of space time to visualize me taking the book from the past of the pages at hand. And when I did, the Temporal demon spirit book appeared on my hand. I was very glad it worked. The surrounding suddenly changed to barren island and the two girls looking for any treasures saw I obtained one, and came to me.

"So this is what you were looking for? "

"This is the book that brought ....never mind any way this is definitely a treasure. "

I imagined us being taken inside. Then all of a sudden, our surrounding were changed once again and we were inside a massive library with rows and rows of bookshelfs filled with numerous books. There are more than 2 million books here.

Yu Yan also came out..

"Ziyun, meet Yu Yan, the spiritual goddess of human kind, and Yu Yan, see Ziyun, my friend"

....

"Only those who understand space time law will be able use this divine treasure and this treasure help us to fix onto a time point outside. Which means we could still age inside, but we will return to the same point back in time outside. "

With that we explored the shelfs. I did my long lost hobby of sliding fingers across the books to sort them inside LoHP. For appearance sake, I also gradually took out some books and read them. I have photographic memory and perfect recall so, I read many books inside about techniques, history, intents, sword,spear, demonic cultivation, ancestral saint land, ancestral demonic saint land etc. and alchemy, treatments,medicine,crafting and many things.. mostly about runes that was not in Nie Li's memory.

Days passed inside. We occassionally move outside to the nearest place to hunt some beasts and had a meal, did some cultivation etc. It's a good thing that with high life level as ours the food and liquid intakes will be refined thoroughly leaving no waste.

When first month was reached, I experienced some pain in my stomach which baffled me until I rembered I stayed as a girl for for more than 28 days now. When I went to consult Ning'er and Ziyun, they explained use of soul force to prevent the release of hormones and egg from our overies. The soul force circulation can result in turning off the natural trigger cycle. And I could do this only after this episode pass.

With daily input of about 5000 to 10,000 books, I have entered everything by now.

It's been an year inside. Our friendship grew stronger with each other staying together. Me and Ning'er will make out whenever we felt like it. Ziyun agreed to connect with my soul realm like the rest of them.

She also shifted to a new cultivation technique that she felt more comfortable using and she also did the compatibilty confirmation by doing the tests mentioned in other books. Doing so temporarily lowered her rank down to black gold rank beginner and changing the circulation pathway of soulforce through the body too.

Yu Yan, broken through heavenly fate and read many flame cultivation and techniques and is cultivating inside a minor world inside temporal spirit book. I would visit Shen Xiu every month. I haven't brought her inside the temporal space but I have gifted her a dozen of books relating to cultivation and some other things. I have also given her duty of care taking the alchemy material plantations across km s for her to maintain. Ziyun reached Legend rank and Ning'er reached the peak legend rank 3. I explained them about snow wind and lightning laws so they are cultivating them also. But they more surprised to see embarassed Shen Xiu in maid uniform.

We visited our temporary home setup outside we made using some of the items nearby and spend some time together relaxing. Spend some time outside hunting and returned back to cultivation and gaining knowledge. The compilation and integration of the new 3 million books are completed. My technique has some more profound verses. I also got flawless knowledge about everything from advanced forging, advanced material refinements, even to dual cultivation and love making. The information also contained many mention of Ascension of supreme rank individual to higher realm. Supreme rank is a step above emperor realm. The Ascension path way was closed for billion years of raw time.

When I first mentioned about dual cultivation, the two of them was very reluctant. Ning'er was reluctant but Ziyun said no. I sensed around my ring world for materials for a body cleansing solution and found many and after making sure there is no beasts nearby I entered and uprooted many of them and sent back to the farming lands where they are replanted.

I prepared a body purifying solution to remove any accumulation of unwanted wastes that obstructs soul force circulation in our bodies. I and Ning'er circulated our soul force while submerging in them. Which removed our accumulated toxins, I only had some amount of medicinal remnants remaining but, Ning'er had a lot of waste accumulation which crumbled away from her body. We two were enjoying our new pristine bodies while making out. The transformation of Ning'er's hair colour to that of lightning blue was completed, it was partly during to the cultivation technique and partly due to body refinement.

Ziyun witnessed this transformation. She wanted to enter too but demanded me to change to a girl. I had a bad thought and decided to change and me, Ninger communicating within soul realm engaged even more shamelessly with Ziyun inside. Causing her to be even more embarassed, but we slowly made our way to her and pulled he in. She didn't made any resistances. And that's how our 3 way relationship started. We made our discovery, Ziyun was interested in girls. She had no interest in my male body other than embarassment but our three bodies reached the state of purity especially mine, which due to the body refinement aspect is perfect in every sense.

I have decided to reach heavenly destiny.

The new techniques and items will be automatically compiled and added to the existing techniques in LoHP. So I went back to my minor world with rich heavenly energy and cultivated the second part of my improved boundless ascension cultivation technique that cultivated heavenly dao. The rich heavenly energy helped me first strengthen my vines inside soul realm.

It took the appearance of a tree with many translucent and abstract structures formed in them. My soul form also expanded and is still cross legged and sitting infront of the tree. Since there was no spirit stone,I have used a phaseless fruit which was divided into 1 in 25000 part dilution. My cultivation broke through heavenly fate rank and a translucent soul fire fate soul with a slight deep purple colour shade to them similar to my soul realm, was condensed.

As soon as it was connected an astral connection formed from it and one of my life force beads. I stored the rest of the elixir in storage box, which I made using time law inscriptions that freezes time inside so they will be ready for use whenever I extract.

For the next month, I went for normal heavenly energy cultivation which got me to heavenly fate 2 star. The difference is just massive compared to what I was a legend rank peak. I also did my flawless body cultivation for the next 2 months which also stepped into new chapter that included formation of ten pillars inside my body which anchors me to astral plane. With the help of evolution ready body, it was easy. The new meridian structures formed a new 10 interconnected veins which an ordinary heavenly fate practising this technique would take years for such formation to become real from visualization.

These structures condense a new form of energy, I just called it physique qi which will accumulate in our joints and load bearing structures. It will eliminate any weakening of our body during continuous operation and will increase my flexibility and hardness of each and every cellular structure. It also has a large impact absorption property.

Unlike heavenly energy and soul force which moves around our meridians to our desired part, this new qi could permeate throughout the body. As the limit to a human biological system is reached which will by the end of heavenly star realm, further advancement involves the cultivation of this 10 pillars which will energies the body structure.

I spent my rest of time with xiao huo who absorbed the heavenly energy and usually sleeps. He grown from a handful to the size of a chicken. But its cultivation has already reached heavenly fate. Yu Yan reached peak of heavenly 2 fate realm.

After one and half year inside, we decided to leave for outside. Staying inside is good, but it created some bottle neck in our cultivation, which needed a perfect state of mind. So we emerged. It is about 2 months time outside considering our hunting, eating and 3 way relationship which took most of it. We decided to keep the possession of Temporal demon spirit book a secret. It took a bit of convincing for the two of them to keep quiet about it, but they understood the specialty of this divine item.

With its ability to lock onto spacetime, people could quickly become experts and the amount of minor worlds and information inside is another opportunity. Nie Li already published majority of publishable content to the families in glory city. So not much help is needed, and this is a cultivation world which is not exactly known for magnanimity and sharing for others.

For Nie Li's case, I described it as he didn't know of its location as of now. Heaven doesn't want him to know as he has to go through several tribulations to achieve the greatness. During the days inside the book, I have already described the several aspects of living in a cultivation world about protagonists, heavenly will, destiny, systems , villains, daughter of destiny, young masters, fiance agreements, importance of low keyness etc..from my knowledge of previous world.

Now Ziyun is legend rank 3 with snow wind law cultivation, Ning'er is Legend rank 5 beginner cultivation using lightning law cultivation. Yu Yan is heavenly fate 2 realm similar to myself. She and I went away first far from here to obtain her storage rings and others (since she is heavenly fate she was pretty confident). It didn't took long as I could open a space time portal to places where I visited or within a certain range of 500km radius..

We came back and left for nether realm.

This time the two girls are very knowledgeable and they used their advanced movement technique to go back. I decided not to teleport,and it took them 4 days to go back to entrance of nether realm, which we found out using my LoHP trial and error technique.

I hid my cultivation to legend rank peak, using the new and optimized technique, which is inherently part of my cultivation technique. But if I use heavenly energy, I will still find out, but we could use ability of demon spirits which is powered by heavenly energy.

The girls wanted to find and kill demon lord, but me knowing that guy is a future reincarnation of an expert that has a destiny with Nie Li, expressed such possibilities including, such actions may lead to others discovering possibility of living and cultivation environment outside of nether realm and may lead to discovery of glory city from tracing us by divination or some how, even curiosity to know our identities and so]

Besides they were now sure that glory city will emerge victorious in any attack that includes their participation and the last attack didn't end up so bad for us. So they left that thought.

I explained the reason for coming here was to find and get to know the strength of the person responsible for Yu Yan plight. So using divination on the items obtained previously with the fight of two legend rank beasts who assaulted her, we were able to get a vision about Zhu Long, a 7 heaven fate demon dragon who lies in the extreme regions of nine layered death lands in snowy caps. We can't attack him now.

So we spent our days in nether realm. We get to know about a senior rune master here at jade sea family, which caused many new weapons and devices. I tried to sense him with his soul signature but, looks like Nie Li has gone back.

I just casually made ourselves visit jade seal family after mentioning ourselves as Nie Li's friends. Initially he lied not knowing, but later we told him about his characteristics and behaviour as an expert, he gave in. We released our cultivation aura and law suppression to make him realise we are not small fries as he was about to order ourselves to be arrested for checking we are spies from other families.

We enquired about nine layered death lands and the available information for venturing inside. We left them and entered death lands. The harsh landscape of the Nine Layered Deathlands stretched out under a blood-red sky, craggy rocks and desolate plains as far as the eye could see. We explored the terrain. After we know that Zhu Long is not possible to defeat at the current power levels, we already decided to just explore and see around.

We also recovered one of Yu Yan's possessions from her guidance, it was deep underground bound by some law inscriptions, we found many crafting materials and even some god fragments of chaos law god from other places similarily and other things. Yu Yan went inside the ring world and resumed in going through all the found treasures. While we decide to go back.

Suddenly, we noticed a figure emerging from the mists—a young man with an air of confidence and a hint of mystery. Then we met with the beautiful guy, ' named Xiao yu. Looks like Netherlord has already sensed the new and deep law fluctuations of both Ye Ziyun and Xiao Ning'er, two new demi gods. And if he by chance looked at us, he might have seen a mortal(?) with no cultivation and spiritual goddess of fire Yu Yan going with them unearthing treasures. May be that got him interested..So he sent her.'

Xiao Yu: " Greetings, my name is Xiao Yu."

He reached out and gently took my hand. With a graceful movement, he pressed a light kiss to the back of it. The gesture was both respectful and slightly provocative.

Xiao Yu: "Forgive my boldness. I merely wished to make a new acquaintance in this unforgiving land. May I ask who are you and what brings you to this desolate place?" She went straight to me first

Tao: " It doesn't concern you does it? Why are you here at Nine Layered Death lands? To get to know new people? " I released my aura of a legend rank and law energies

Xiao Yu: " Oh no need to be alarmed. (unperturbed) Ah, a girl of mystery. How intriguing. I respect your wish for secrecy. I am merely interested in why such unknown and very young 3 demigods come this deep into death-lands? I am merely interested in getting to know you and if possible travel together. "

Ye Ziyun raising an eyebrow:" We're searching for treasures. It's rumored that there are valuable artifacts hidden here. And you? "

He replied yes and he followed us back shamelessly. " Are you interested in Nether realm masters disciple selection trial?"

" Yes we have heard of it. But it still one month away. Yes we planned to participate " Xiao Ninger replied.

....

After we followed back and decided to stay at renting places at Nether City. We exchanged some of our items and obtained a lot of coins. We went around the city after applying ourselves illusion of normal looking girls but with black gold rank cultivation ranks for no young masters to put an eye on us. He decided to confront us about it. I described it as lifestyle choices. But, somehow certain high profiles, already know of this Xiao Yu. We indeed came across some monitoring. So we disappeared ourselves from there and went back to glory city using a portal.

But not long after, but we applied a very concealing and multiple barriers defensive array (That prevent one from leaving nether realm not entering it) to the already present barrier that dark guild used to travel across to go through glory city.

Nie Li didn't make any array connecting their minds as many of them have reached black gold rand peak and Duan Jian being a legend rank 2. I transformed back to Chi Tao personality. Ning'er and Ziyun went to find their families. Ziyun's grand father came earlier but Nie didn't find him since he remained in the nether realm city for long. Looking at the legend rank 4 cultivation of her, city lord and Ye Mo were astonished.

We met with Nie Li and team later. Looks like he was missing Ziyun very much. He observed the changes very soon and was surprised to see our very high cultivation bases.

We explained going on an adventure to northern plateau and islands and obtaining treasures and new techniques and finally to nether realm.

After 2 weeks gone by which we have gone to each of ours family. And provided them with some cultivation elixirs and even some more standard techniques we obtained.

Now Glory city has about 10 legends other than Nie Li and ours group from the family heads of others. Genius class students in academy has many silver rank. My family, Nie Li's family were provided with areas near city to move from our original home. I provided an "Introduction to laws for dummies", " Common sense for dummies " books I made published under the name of 'Albert Einstein' to cultivation libraries in glory city.

We set our course for Nether city again with Nie Li's group. Since we have time and I enjoyed moving in groups with them, we followed them along and didn't teleport at once. Seeing Nie Li that guy will meet us again.

Several members of group reached Legend rank on the way to nether realm. We reached Nether realm and went to jade seal family camp. Seeing Nie Li, Ye Ziyun and Xiao Ninger, they got surprised.

We decided to search on the first levels of 9 layered death lands. The fog consumed us. I was with Xiao Ninger, so she was safe with me. But Ziyun got seperated so is Nie Li and others. I travelled with Ning'er for a while obtained a spirit origin fruit. And by our soul realm connection, we went to look for Ziyun,

' ah there she is,...along with Xiao Yu and Nie Li? '

We met up. Xiao Yu obviously recognised Ning'er. But seeing me she asked " Have me met before? You seem familiar to me."

" Oh, you forgot me so easily, can't you recognise them both?"

" You...are her. Why are you in illusion or hiding?"

" No there is no illusion here. Our previous meet was the illusion." Seems Nie Li was interested so I just answered simply.

Xiao Yu seem very surprised by the answer.

Later we travelled together. I was just observing Xiao Yu and Nie Li's actions.

Later they went to death gods tomb but I stayed back with Ning'er and Ziyun. Some came to rob us. They gone after having our demigod rank aura showcased to them.

Some noble family people who came later refused to go even after releasing demigod aura, then I released heavenly fate realm aura and many were unconscious and those left picked them up and left.

We left later. Next day, the trial started. There wasn't any death involved, but many tests that check the control, the purity and depth of your soulforce. Finally, before the tower of black flames I suggested that, if we were to be disciples of those selecting us, we will be separated. But they still agreed to go independently.

Yu Yan stayed with me. I went up just illutioning myself to avoid unwanted fights with young masters or demon lord and went up all the way to first, the flames never did a thing to my body. But my soul refined some and fate soul was somewhat increased. Yu Yan also came out over to my shoulders refining the flames.

On the fifth floor, celestial quiln came straight to attack me. I hit it with power of heavenly fate in its acupoint in jaw that caused it's jaw and tongue to loose control. Seeing that guys poor situation of being chained, I used LoHP to check his situation. I sent a mental message to it the flaws in cultivation I found. It was happy as a puppy afterwards, I fixed its jaw and went up the floor.

On the sixth floor I reached, the anatta mental state which I had already developed got activated, as surroundings were done how created to observe this phenomenon. Seeing no one around, other than the lords who were viewing myself, I ventured further into the seventh layer. Seeing the boiling black flame all around, I sat down and cultivated which made my 3rd heavenly fate star to form.

Sensing someone started to ascend to 7th realm steps, I stopped my law cultivation and went to the eight floor, which was a floor of comprehension which was not shown in the plot. I was given 3 sets of techniques and was supposed to give minimum of 5 flaws each. It was like made for me. So I inspected each of them and wrote their over 10 flaws for each. I was teleported to a grassland with many heavenly fates infront of me and even Xiao Yu was there.

Ming Fei,the nether realm master stated:

" You are the most talented candidate we have in all of them present. You were able to go beyond the limitations of divine continent and advance to heavenly fate. As the person who has managed to clear 8th layer and a person of highest cultivation, we allow you to choose a person as master for yourself from here. Let me explain myself, I am Ming Fei, from the ..... (And the explanation went on to last person).

"I choose you (Pokémon) Nether realm master, as my master. Please take care of me."

I accepted his soul seal albeit I could destroy it anytime.

I sent him a mental message "Please help take care of the glory city . I have brought Yu Yan with me and I have known she has enemy named Zhu Long who will trouble you most probably. So as a compensation please accept this alchemy pills useful for heavenly fate realm experts..I obtained it preserved from certain ruins. I have two bottles with me with 2 each. You can check the veracity later."

I gave him phaseless fruit highly diluted essence.Then I given him a storage ring with only that. I went to chat with Xiao Yu.

"I never thought you were a heavenly fate. You fooled us until you released aura inside the tower. "

".....If you want to become one, I could help you. ( Looking at her skepticism ) You can either come to me or Nie Li. He can also do it for you"

Later I got to engage with heavenly note sects envoy, and recommend Ninger and Ye Ziyun. I also secretly gifted her the same pills, while having a small handshake while she was congratulating me.

It's impressive how quickly she picked up on the incentive I offered. Every one is a cunning fellow out here. A day later the selected ones were called. Unsurprisingly, Nie Li and I am in the same group as Lu piao also. Nie li seems to have reached Legend rank 5. It seems the inheritor of Kong ming tried to enter his mind, but with higher cultivation base and no Yu Yan to escape to, Nie Li went from legend rank 1 to 5.

Ziyun and Ning'er were a little disappointed to see me seperate. We returned to glory city for a period of 3 months but first went with Nie Li and friends went to endless desert, where he was in a daze for a moment after falling unconscious. There wasn't any episode of Ziyun and Ning'er picking up previous life memories as I have already extracted temporal pages from them. I picked him up as he fell.

And opened a portal in the middle of desert to glory city. Everyone went back. "If you could make portals already why did you made us walk?", Lu piao asked at me enraged." Where is the fun in that? "I replied with a chuckle after admitting Nie Li to care.

I went to the city lord and submitted an upgrade to ten thousand demon spirit array using LoHP and written down many flaws and solutions.

I stopped my secrecy as my interactions with them will not have much attention from here. And then went to my parents and spend time with them informing of future adventures and put some elixirs for family members. A week later I met with Ning'er at her room in city lords mansion. We cuddled around and kissed for sometime after which I told her.

" I will be leaving for a while to other distant places. (Before she could say to take her along), and for you it will be over in an instant, but I will be going to a distant land for may be years. But I will return to a time point within a day, if not, that means I am dead."

After some consolations, I stood up and took a long breath. It's my first time going through this, so here we go. I activated the portal and the shield together. A star shaped portal opened infront of me to the familiar scenery, I imagined in my mind. I took a step forward and entered and the portal closed.
