Chapter 659: Sects from Another Domain

As Zhao Shanling tortured the man, Nie Tian stepped over to the middle-aged man’s corpse and looted his ring of holding.

With a single glance inside, he discovered that there were a significant amount of spirit stones and spirit jades in his ring of holding, and thus transferred all of them into his own ring of holding.

Then, he noticed that aside from the spirit stones and spirit jades, there were still a number of spiritual materials, medicinal pills, suits of spiritual armor, and a map.

It wasn’t an ordinary map. It was a star map, where the Domain of Heaven’s Boundaries was marked out.

The star map was carved on a bone slip. Nie Tian only took one glance at it, and his expression flickered.

This star map was identical to the one in the Spirit Pearl.

The star map in the Spirit Pearl, which he had obtained from the Phantasms, also had the Domain of Heaven’s Boundaries marked out as a destination.

The Domain of Heaven’s Boundaries consisted of more than a hundred realms, which made it much larger than the Domain of the Falling Stars.

Eyebrows furrowed, Nie Tian pondered for a while before walking back to Zhao Shanling.

The man had already died under Zhao Shanling’s torture, lying there in a pool of blood.

“I’ve found a star map, Senior Zhao,” Nie Tian said, “which is exactly the same as the one I obtained from the Phantasms. They both had the same location marked out as a destination: the Domain of Heaven’s Boundaries. Back when that ancient starship charged out of the Realm of Dark Underworld, I seized its Spirit Pearl, which contained a star map. It must have lost the coordinates it needed to return to the Domain of Heaven’s Boundaries, so it...” He went on and explained his speculations of the situation.

After hearing his words, Zhao Shanling said, “There are more than a hundred realms in the Domain of Heaven’s Boundaries. Most of them aren’t fit for humans to live in, and are only considered mines due to their production of unique spiritual materials.

“Only thirty-six of the realms are dominated by human Qi warriors, and the Domain of Heaven’s Boundaries happens to be one of them…” Zhao Shanling took his time to explain the information he had obtained by torturing the man to Nie Tian.

From him, Nie Tian learned that humans dominated the Domain of Heaven’s Boundaries and had numerous sects set up there.

However, the Qi warriors in the Domain of Heaven’s Boundaries were more powerful than those in the Domain of the Falling Stars. Their peak experts were at the Void domain.

Some of the human forces in the Domain of Heaven’s Boundaries considered outsiders their enemies and waged wars with them from time to time, while other forces had friendly relationships, and often made deals with the outsiders.

The reason why that Phantasms’ ancient starship had planned to return to the Domain of Heaven’s Boundaries was probably because they had hoped to return to their own realms from there.

The most powerful forces in the Domain of Heaven’s Boundaries already possessed the ability to build their own starships.

The Trisword Sect and the Bliss Mountain Sect were both from the Domain of Heaven’s Boundaries.

The owner of this unique heaven and earth, Master Voidspirit, had been one of the seven peak experts in the Domain of Heaven’s Boundaries. Being at the late Void domain, he had been ranked fifth.

Since he had been an expert of spatial magics, he had chosen this space disruption zone to make his breakthrough into the Saint domain.

Many sects in the Domain of Heaven’s Boundaries had learned about this as well.

To everyone’s surprise, he had never returned to the Domain of Heaven’s Boundaries.

Gradually, people began to speculate that he must have failed to enter the Saint domain, and died in this space disruption zone.

Since he was the fifth most powerful expert throughout the Domain of Heaven’s Boundaries, many people had set their minds on his legacies.

Over the past thousand years, sects in the Domain of Heaven’s Boundaries had sent numerous teams of Qi warriors to search this space disruption zone for Master Voidspirit’s lifelong accumulations.

The Trisword Sect and the Bliss Mountain Sect were the luckiest of them. After putting in many years and endless resources, they had finally found some clues.

Compared to the Trisword Sect, the Bliss Mountain Sect’s exploration of this place had been more successful. They had discovered this unique heaven and earth created by Master Voidspirit first, and learned that Qi warriors would lose all of their spiritual power soon after entering.

They had sent seven exploration teams into this unique realm, some of which had even been led by Soul realm experts.

However, no matter how high their cultivation bases had been, they had soon lost all of their spiritual power and died miserable deaths, with only a few lucky ones escaping narrowly.

The Bliss Mountain Sect had then learned from their lessons and realized that their cultivation bases wouldn’t bring them success in this place.
