The Liu Family was now considered one of the top major factions on the Northern Heavens Continent. With Liu Jing Shan and Liu Qing Tian as publicly acknowledged Sovereign experts, along with their relationship with the Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy, it could be said that no one on the entire Northern Heavens Continent dared to provoke them.
Over the years, as the Liu Family steadily developed, the direct bloodline of the family also began to flourish. The second and third masters of the Liu Family had each found their own partners and had children as well.
Liu Bai had naturally met these two younger male cousins and one younger female cousin of his. Although they were still little children and had not fully grown yet, their talent was quite good, at the very least stronger than the older generation of the three Liu brothers.
This was actually not strange at all. After all, with the current foundation of the Liu Family, these three little fellows had already begun receiving nourishment from various spiritual objects before even being born, so their talents naturally became much stronger.
Liu Bai also knew that his grandfather and father had reached their current realms entirely through the accumulation of resources, but if they wished to continue improving in the future, it would likely become very difficult.
However, Liu Bai had already prepared for this. As a Heavenly Grade Grandmaster Alchemist, refining some pills capable of forcefully raising the cultivation of Sovereign experts was not a problem for him, such as the Supreme Heavenly Pill, Heavenly Saint Pill, and others.
Besides that, Liu Bai had also refined quite a few Divine Artifacts and left them within the Liu Family. For example, Liu Qing Tian as the Family Head and Liu Jing Shan as the family's strongest expert were both equipped with complete sets of Divine Artifact armor and weapons.
Although they were only Low Rank Divine Artifacts, they were absolutely enough to allow them to act without restraint on the Northern Heavens Continent.
Of course, it was not that there were no better treasures. Rather, the higher grade Divine Artifacts had all been stored away as the family's foundation. After all, the Liu Family's current strength was still insufficient. If Supreme Grade Divine Artifacts or similar treasures appeared, it would very likely attract the greed of outsiders, resulting in losses outweighing the gains.
After preparing everything, Liu Bai planned to leave together with the third brother, Liu Yang.
Compared to his eldest and second brothers, Liu Yang had seemed rather ordinary all these years.
Coincidentally, today was also the day Liu Yang graduated from the Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy. However, compared to the cultivation levels Liu Bai and Liu Mu Bai possessed at graduation, Liu Yang fell far behind.
Even with the full support of the Liu Family, the current Liu Yang had only barely reached the initial phase of the Heavenly Completion Realm. Within the Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy, he had not even entered the top ten of the Heavenly Ranking.
As the third president of the Liu God Society, because of his insufficient personal strength, the influence of the Liu God Society had inevitably begun declining. After Liu Yang's graduation, whether the Liu God Society could continue existing at all had become uncertain.
Liu Yang felt very disappointed about this.
Liu Bai also felt somewhat apologetic in his heart.
After all, part of the reason was because of him.
Back then, Liu Bai had spared no effort in nurturing his second brother Liu Mu Bai. Furthermore, with the Devouring Life Flame, a special spiritual flame that was practically bug level during the early stages, Liu Mu Bai's growth had been greatly elevated.
As for Liu Yang, when Liu Bai thought about this third brother now, he realized he could hardly remember having helped him with anything.
"Alright, stop looking so dejected. Isn't it just cultivation? I guarantee that if you follow your big brother, then one year later, absolutely no graduate from your generation will surpass you in cultivation!"
Patting his little brother's shoulder, Liu Bai said with a grin.
Liu Yang's eyes immediately lit up, excitement flickering within them.
"Big Brother, are you finally going to fully nurture me now?"
Liu Bai could not help rolling his eyes.
Fully nurture him? With the current resources of the Five Elements Divine Palace, even if Liu Yang were treated according to the standard training method for ordinary genius disciples, if he still could not reach the Sovereign Realm within a year, then Liu Bai as Palace Master would simply be incompetent!
However, with Liu Yang's talent, even if Liu Bai wanted to nurture him with all his strength, there was only so much he could do. After all, if the body could not endure it, giving more resources would still be useless.
"That's right. Big Brother came back this time specifically to bring you back for proper training. You can join your second brother as well. Then the three of us brothers will roam freely across the Great Thousand World together!"
These words instantly made Liu Yang's blood boil with excitement, his handsome face turning completely red.
"Mm! I will definitely work hard!" Liu Yang nodded heavily, clenching his fists tightly!
Touching his nose, Liu Bai did not continue saying anything further to motivate him, lest the boy become too overheated with enthusiasm.
This time, because he needed to save time and was also bringing along Liu Yang, this little burden, Liu Bai chose to travel through teleportation arrays.
Three days later, Liu Bai brought Liu Yang back to the Great Heavenlaw Domain and entered the Ancient Heavenly Palace.
When Liu Yang learned that his eldest brother was now actually a supreme expert controlling an entire "Heavenly Palace," his mouth remained wide open in shock.
Like Liu Mu Bai, Liu Yang also became the second disciple residing within the Heavenly Palace without possessing an identity token.
However, Liu Bai naturally did not dare arrange for this boy to stay beside the Heavenly River. With merely Heavenly Completion Realm cultivation, he would probably be crushed to death directly by the Heavenly River's aura.
"Hm? You are actually an Artifact Refinement Master?"
Only at this moment did Liu Bai suddenly realize that this third brother, who previously appeared "good for nothing," actually possessed talent in artifact refinement. Moreover, it seemed rather impressive, as he had already become a High Rank Spiritual Artifact Master!
Looking at the surprised expression on his eldest brother's face, Liu Yang scratched his head somewhat embarrassedly.
"I still can't compare to Big Brother. I only advanced to High Rank Spiritual Artifact Master not long ago."
However, Liu Bai felt rather delighted. Originally, he had only planned to help this boy improve his cultivation diligently, so that even if he could not become a true expert in the future, he could still live an ordinary and peaceful life.
But now that this boy possessed talent in artifact refinement as well, then he could truly be nurtured properly.
After thinking for a moment, Liu Bai directly brought Liu Yang to a mountain peak inside the Ancient Heavenly Palace.
"This place is the Three Emperors Peak. Within it resides Senior Divine Refining Emperor, who was a grandmaster artifact refinement expert during the ancient era. Since you possess talent in artifact refinement, you should first stay here and study carefully to see whether you can obtain Senior Divine Refining Emperor's inheritance."
This so called Three Emperors Peak was originally the sect grounds of the Three Emperors Sect that Liu Bai had once carried with him. After obtaining ownership of the Ancient Heavenly Palace, Liu Bai finally possessed a completely secure residence entirely under his own control, so there was naturally no longer any need for the Three Emperors Sect to remain hidden away.
At present, Zhan Tai Liuli, who had inherited the inheritance of the Heavenly Array Emperor, had already been brought here by Liu Bai and was currently researching the Dao of Battle Arrays within the Heavenly Array Emperor's palace.
Now that Divine Refining Emperor was handed over to Liu Yang, only the Spiritual Array Emperor's palace remained without a successor.
Of course, Liu Bai himself was already a High Rank Spiritual Array Scholar, so whether the Spiritual Array Emperor's palace had an inheritor or not did not matter much.
After settling Liu Yang's arrangements, Liu Bai once again found Mandala and briefly explained his plans to head toward the Heavenly Saber Plane.
"During this period, our Five Elements Divine Palace should continue focusing on stabilizing our forces and temporarily avoid conflicts with the outside world."
This time, unlike Mu Chen, Liu Bai was not planning to rely on a Lower Plane's Plane Spirit to break through to Heavenly Sovereign. Therefore, he estimated that simply going there to kill people would certainly not take very long.
"You really are becoming bolder and bolder. You actually dare provoke the Fiend Clans. Aren't you afraid of encountering a super expert from the Fiend Clans and never returning?"
In response to Mandala's words, Liu Bai merely smiled faintly.
"When have I ever done something without confidence?"
"Don't forget, I still have two trump cards in my hands..."
Mandala immediately understood what Liu Bai meant. With existences such as the Flame Emperor and Martial Ancestor backing him up, there truly was no need to worry about safety.
Even so, she still could not quite understand Liu Bai's choice.
"Fine, do as you wish. During the time you are away, I will do my best to stabilize the overall situation."
Although she did not understand, Mandala did not object either. From past experience, every time this fellow returned after killing people, his cultivation would surge dramatically once again.
Coincidentally, the status of the Five Elements Divine Palace was still not stable enough, and Liu Bai as Palace Master indeed needed to increase his cultivation as quickly as possible.
After arranging everything, Liu Bai also needed to inquire about the nearest location of a Great Thousand Tower branch.
Although the Great Thousand Palace guarded the Extreme Western Region and the branches of the Great Thousand Tower were mostly located along the borders of the Great Thousand World, this did not mean there were no Great Thousand Towers elsewhere.
The Northern Heavens Continent belonged to the northern territory of the Great Thousand World, and naturally the Heavenly Saber Continent did as well. According to the information Liu Bai obtained, there was a Great Thousand Tower branch on a place called Abyss Continent located in the northwestern region of the Great Thousand World.
This was the closest Great Thousand Tower branch to the Heavenly Saber Continent.
After returning once more to Heavenly Saber Continent, Liu Bai met Ding Xuan again.
The latter's body had already recovered seventy to eighty percent. Although he had lost one arm, the sharp saber intent radiating from his body was enough to make even Liu Bai feel alarmed.
Because he had received the blessings of the Heavenly Saber Plane, the current Ding Xuan could be said to possess the support of the world's will itself. His cultivation speed was so astonishing that even Liu Bai, this cheat empowered transmigrator, found it difficult to compare.
In merely one month, not only had his body recovered, but the spiritual energy around him had become even stronger. He had actually reached the level of an Greater Earthly Sovereign.
"It seems Brother Ding will finally be able to personally take revenge this time..." Liu Bai said with a smile.
Ding Xuan was never good with words, so in response to Liu Bai's teasing, he merely nodded and asked, "Where are we going next?"
He knew almost nothing about the Great Thousand World, so from here onward he could only follow Liu Bai's arrangements. All he needed to do was guide everyone into the Heavenly Saber Plane when the time came.
"The northwestern region, Abyss Continent!"
Back in ancient times, Abyss Continent could be considered one of the large continents within the Great Thousand World, and powerful super sects once existed there.
Unfortunately, during that great war, Abyss Continent became one of the earliest places invaded by the Fiend Clans, so its destruction came without surprise.
Moreover, the continent had been shattered directly by the battles of numerous super experts. Ninety percent of the continent drifted into the void, while the remaining fragment was only slightly larger than a small continent like Heavenly Saber Continent.
After the war ended, because of the special nature of Abyss Continent, along with the lingering connections between it and the shattered continental fragments drifting nearby, Fiend Clan experts frequently infiltrated through the void searching for the corpses of Demon Emperors.
Because of this, the Great Thousand Palace established a Great Thousand Tower here to guard the region and exterminate those Fiend Clan experts who secretly crossed over.
By the time the two arrived there, another month and a half had already passed.
The sheer distance of the journey left even Ding Xuan shocked.
After all, throughout the journey, they had mostly traveled using teleportation arrays personally constructed by Liu Bai. Whenever nearby teleportation arrays existed, they also used those.
Yet even so, it had still taken such a long time, allowing Ding Xuan to truly experience the boundless vastness of the Great Thousand World.
Standing atop a barren mountain peak, Liu Bai and Ding Xuan gazed into the distance. As far as the eye could see, the sky was dim, and the entire world seemed trapped within an atmosphere of extreme oppression.
"This aura it belongs to those Fiend Clans." Ding Xuan said in a low voice while looking at the darkened sky.
Liu Bai sighed emotionally.
"Yes. Even though experts from our Great Thousand World already purified Abyss Continent, the spiritual energy here still cannot recover to the normal state found elsewhere. It is difficult to cultivate here at all..."
Since Abyss Continent was no longer very large, the two quickly located the Great Thousand Tower.
It was the ruins of a massive city. The entire outer region of the ruins was protected by a grand array. At the very center of the city stood an enormous stone monument several thousand feet tall, the tallest existence on the entire Abyss Continent.
"Demon Slaying Ranking!"
Liu Bai narrowed his eyes as he looked at the blood colored words glowing with killing intent upon the stone monument and slowly read out those three words.
"So this is the Great Thousand Palace, so this is the Demon Slaying Ranking..." Ding Xuan's eyes filled with shock.
"Let's go. The Great Thousand Tower branch is located beneath the Demon Slaying Ranking. We should first become Demon Slayers, then see whether anyone is interested in joining our operation."
Ding Xuan nodded before following Liu Bai toward the city ruins.
Standing before the light barrier outside the city, Ding Xuan could feel an extremely terrifying spiritual energy fluctuation spreading from the barrier.
Liu Bai smiled faintly and explained, "Relax. Although this grand array is a Grandmaster level Spiritual Array, it only targets the Fiend Clans. People of the Great Thousand World can freely enter and leave."
Every branch of the Great Thousand Tower possessed a Spiritual Array of this level guarding it. Even if a Demon Emperor arrived personally, breaking through the array would still be difficult.
Moreover, the array only reacted to demonic energy, completely preventing certain Fiend Clan members with special abilities from secretly infiltrating.
As they passed through the light barrier, Liu Bai could clearly sense a concealed fluctuation instantly scanning both the inside and outside of his body. Under that scan, it felt as though all his secrets had been exposed.
However, neither of them paid any attention and directly entered the city.
Contrary to expectations, the city was not bustling at all. Instead, it was somewhat deserted.
Clearly, there were not many Demon Slayers here. Or perhaps most of them had already entered the nearby continental fragments drifting through the void, searching for opportunities while hunting Fiend Clan experts.
Only when the two approached the central region of the city did the number of people finally increase.
Liu Bai could even see quite a few individuals setting up stalls along the streets to trade goods. Without exception, all those items were ancient objects passed down from the ancient era, and many of them were things that even Liu Bai could not identify.
