"Another True Meaning?"
Xue Jing looked at Wuchen Sword Immortal in surprise. He could clearly sense that Wuchen Sword Immortal's previous strike had perfectly fused the power of True Meaning, and only then could Lin Haotian, who had achieved minor success in the Saint Body, not withstand it.
Zhang Fan nodded and said, "If I guessed correctly, the second True Meaning Wuchen depicted is the Heavy Sword True Meaning."
"What kind of sword technique is this? I couldn't even block it!"
Lin Haotian flew over from a distance and landed in front of Wuchen Sword Immortal, asking curiously.
At this moment, there was a bloodstain about a foot long on his chest. However, his physical body was strong, and the wound did not flow with blood, healing slowly at a visible speed.
"This is a True Meaning I recently comprehended, the Heavy Sword True Meaning. Speaking of which, I was able to comprehend this True Meaning thanks to Brother Haotian's guidance over the past two years!"
After Wuchen Sword Immortal finished speaking, he bowed to Lin Haotian, appearing quite sincere.
Lin Haotian's hammer techniques contained an endless sense of heaviness. Over the past two years, they had fought dozens of battles, and each battle had given him considerable insight into the Heavy Sword True Meaning.
Lin Haotian quickly helped Wuchen Sword Immortal up, patted his shoulder, and said with a smile, "I've also made considerable progress these past two years, so there's no need for thanks. Just kowtow to me casually."
After Lin Haotian finished speaking, he couldn't help but glance at Wuchen Sword Immortal. The two looked at each other and burst into laughter.
After two years of getting along, they had also developed a deep friendship through combat and now considered each other good friends.
"Then why didn't you use this move in the last fight? Otherwise, I wouldn't have sent you flying with a hammer blow last time," Lin Haotian asked.
Wuchen Sword Immortal smiled and did not speak, instead looking up at the sky.
Lin Haotian looked up. At some point, Zhang Fan, Xue Jing, and the others were already standing above them.
"Master, you've finally come out of seclusion!" Lin Haotian exclaimed excitedly, charging into the air and stopping in front of Zhang Fan.
The Blood Demon Dragon also noticed Zhang Fan's arrival only after being reminded. Its body immediately shrank, becoming arm-sized, and it shot out, coiling around Zhang Fan's arm.
After two years of cultivation, the Blood Demon Dragon's strength had also greatly increased. It had now reached the peak of the Core Formation realm. With the Blood Dragon Body Refinement technique it practiced, its physical body was not inferior to Lin Haotian's, and its strength could even crush him!
Even Lin Haotian combined with Wuchen Sword Immortal, who had already depicted two Golden Core Dao patterns, could only fight the Blood Demon Dragon to a draw.
"Your strength has improved reasonably well; it hasn't been a waste of these two years. Next, you'll return to the East Sea with me." After Zhang Fan said this, he turned and headed in the direction of the East Sea. The group turned into streams of light and quickly followed.
...
Just as Zhang Fan and the others emerged from seclusion, the shockwaves from the explosion that had been drifting in space for two years had already spread beyond the solar system, continuously diffusing in the starry sky. They were now more than two light-years away from Earth.
A star system flying ship, shaped like a dragon boat and exceeding a kilometer in length and three hundred meters in width, was drifting aimlessly in space.
Inside the star system flying ship, pavilions stood tall, and several powerful Golden Core cultivators and dozens of Core Formation cultivators lived there. In addition, there was a group of warriors whose strength was in the Divine Realm and Holy Domain Realm.
They were a team that had set out from the Wu Mountain Star Domain to the Milky Way Galaxy in search of opportunities. Apart from the Core Formation and Golden Core cultivators, the others in the Divine Realm and Holy Domain Realm were all captured from other life-bearing planets in the Milky Way Galaxy and were used as slaves.
"Captain, we've been in this Milky Way Galaxy for over five hundred years, but we've only found a few dozen life-bearing planets. The strongest we've encountered was only a cultivator who had formed a third-grade Golden Core, and he was also crushed by you with one hand because he was too arrogant."
"The beings in this Milky Way Galaxy are too weak; they haven't even left their own planets and have no contact with other life-bearing planets. Information is too sealed. If we keep searching aimlessly like this, I'm afraid I'll reach the end of my lifespan before I find a place of opportunity."
In a pavilion within the star system flying ship, a young man dressed in a green brocade robe and a blue tiger-striped belt at his waist was complaining.
A star system flying ship was a treasure that could travel rapidly within a star system. Even their captain had obtained it on his own due to a great opportunity.
Other treasure-hunting teams from the Wu Mountain Star Domain had to pool their resources together, with several second-grade Golden Core cultivators contributing, to afford a star system flying ship.
Although a star system flying ship could travel rapidly between star systems, it required the consumption of space stones. After hundreds of years, their team's space stones were running low.
The fewer space stones they had, the smaller their hope of finding a place of opportunity became.
"There is a reason why Zi Wu True Immortal left the place of opportunity in this Milky Way Galaxy. If the cultivators in this Milky Way Galaxy were too strong, with Nascent Soul Heavenly Immortals existing, how would the opportunity be something for us cultivators from the Wu Mountain Star Domain to contend for?"
The burly, one-armed man said in a low voice, "The weaker the strength, the better. Only then will our hope of contending for the opportunity be greater!"
"Contending for the opportunity also requires being able to find the place of opportunity!"
The man in the green brocade robe said with a wry smile, feeling that his captain was too optimistic.
Suddenly, a strange fluctuation swept past, and the Golden Core cultivators within the star system flying ship all sensed it.
"What is this fluctuation? Where is its source?"
The burly, one-armed man's voice was low as he asked repeatedly.
"It seems to be the residual wave of a strong explosion. The source of the fluctuation is in a star system about a light-year away from us, and this fluctuation is still spreading outwards at the speed of light!"
A Golden Core cultivator holding a cosmic compass walked over and said.
"Two light-years away?"
"Quickly fill the space stones and leap towards the source of the explosion!"
The one-armed man ordered.
Their treasure-hunting team consisted of seven Golden Core cultivators, five of whom were third-grade Golden Cores. He and the brocade-robed youth had condensed second-grade Golden Cores.
With their strength, they were practically invincible within the Milky Way Galaxy. After all, they had been in the Milky Way Galaxy for over five hundred years, and the strongest they had encountered was only a cultivator who had condensed a third-grade Golden Core.
The one-armed man felt that the third-grade Golden Core cultivator had good talent to achieve such a status in the Milky Way Galaxy, and he wanted to take him under his wing. However, the cultivator was too arrogant and refused to yield, so he was directly crushed to death by him.
As for the group of Core Formation cultivators on the star system flying ship, they were brought along to do chores. After all, if their strength was too weak, they would not be able to survive the long interstellar journey.
"Haha, where there are fluctuations, there must be life-bearing planets. I hope the humans on that planet are a bit stronger, able to resist a little under my might, otherwise, it would be too boring."
The brocade-robed man seemed very excited. When he arrived at a planet, the first thing he did was not to search for opportunities, but to select beautiful women with strong combat prowess on the planet for his pleasure.
If not for this, he would have collapsed long ago during the long journey.
