A journey through immortal realms begins with a phantom tale.
Chapter 4 Unexpected Separation and Crisis on an Alien Planet
"Are you willing to leave your parents, relatives, friends, teachers, and best friends?"
These words struck Lin Chen like a hammer blow, leaving him stunned.
Luo Cheng then slowly said, "Cultivation knows no time. When I return, it may be decades later, or it may be hundreds of years later."
With a loud "boom," Lin Chen felt his mind and spirit shake violently.
She was filled with conflicting emotions; she couldn't bear to leave her parents. They had raised her for twenty years, and if she were to leave them, they would be heartbroken.
However, she was equally reluctant to leave Luocheng before her.
"Can I stay?" Lin Chen asked with a hint of expectation.
Luo Cheng didn't speak, but the resolute look in his eyes told Lin Chen that he had already seen the answer on his face.
This person will not stay, nor will he stay for her.
She once thought that Luo Cheng loved her, and that her charm was enough to make him stay.
Thinking of this, Lin Chen's eyes welled up with tears, which he couldn't help but shed.
Luo Cheng opened his mouth, wanting to say something, wanting to comfort her, but in the end, he couldn't utter a single word.
"Go away, go away quickly!" Lin Chen cried and shouted.
Luo Cheng said softly, "Strive to cultivate diligently. If you reach the Nascent Soul stage, we will meet again."
Lin Chen understood that only by entering the Nascent Soul stage could he have a longer lifespan and have the possibility of meeting again.
Luo Cheng did not linger and flew into the sky.
For the next two years, Luo Cheng traveled around the world.
But he no longer contacts anyone, like a lonely traveler, wandering alone between heaven and earth.
"Brothers." A golden light flashed, and Fu Shan and Li Qiang suddenly appeared.
Luo Cheng knew it was time to leave.
At this time, Li Qiang had just completed the Foundation Establishment stage and had experienced betrayal and heartbreak, so he had not yet fully recovered.
Luo Cheng asked, "Brother, have you been waiting for him?"
Fu Shan smiled and said, "Let me introduce you."
Afterwards, Fu Shan used his true energy to protect Luo Cheng and Li Qiang, and then led them away.
Only a powerful figure like Fu Shan could traverse the void and cross from Earth to Mars.
After truly leaving Blue Star, Li Qiang let go of everything and began chatting with Luo Cheng.
"Brother, let's cultivate together from now on," Li Qiang said.
"Okay," Luo Cheng replied, but in his heart he was thinking, "The Heavenly Court Star has a cultivation technique for gods. Should I learn it?"
The greatest difficulty in cultivating divinity lies in controlling one's realm. However, Luo Cheng has already attained enlightenment and his realm is improving extremely rapidly, so he doesn't need to worry about the realm issue.
However, another issue troubled him: after he cultivated to godhood, the Azure Emperor might come looking for trouble.
While Fu Shan was adjusting his breathing, Luo Cheng and Li Qiang continued their casual conversation.
The two came from the same place and had much in common. Moreover, Luo Cheng knew about Li Qiang's future fate.
After a short while, Luo Cheng and Li Qiang also sat down to regulate their breathing and stopped talking.
However, not long after, a clear, melodious, and somewhat charming voice suddenly came from the void.
Accompanied by the sound, a bewitching female cultivator appeared.
Luo Cheng knew in his heart that this was Hua Meiniang. This female cultivator liked Fu Shan, but dared not confess, so she could only attract Fu Shan's attention by causing trouble.
Next, Luo Cheng and Li Qiang had the privilege of witnessing a "battle of the gods." The scene was dazzling with light, filled with magical spells, and magnificent and breathtaking.
However, the accident still happened.
The teleportation array suddenly activated, and a golden light flashed.
Luo Cheng wondered to himself, "Will they go to Tianting Star?"
When Luo Cheng came to a stop, he found that Li Qiang was gone.
His heart skipped a beat as he realized the two of them had separated.
On the other side, Fu Shan was both anxious and furious. His two brothers had been teleported to different places, which meant they would be difficult to find.
At this moment, Hua Meiniang was also a little flustered. She only wanted to cause trouble, and didn't want to make an enemy of Fu Shan because of this!
She knew in her heart that if something happened to her two brothers, then she and Fu Shan would truly have no hope left.
She wanted to help find the person, but her proud personality prevented her from doing so.
Luo Cheng surveyed the surroundings but found no signs or trace of Li Qiang.
Li Qiang, on the other hand, was teleported to the Heavenly Court Star, where his cultivation journey officially began.
That being said, Luo Cheng originally wanted to go to the Heavenly Court Star because there were cultivation techniques for gods there.
In the ethereal world, there are three divine treasures: the Ancient God's Treasure, the Purple Star, and the Illusionary Star Divine Array. All three are things left behind by the gods.
Thinking of this, Luo Cheng subconsciously looked up, pondering to himself, "Could Yuanshi, Yuanchu, and Lingxu see what's happening in the lower realm?"
Soon, Luo Cheng regained his composure. He realized that the matters of immortals and gods were still too far removed from his own life.
Speaking of the Ancient God's Treasury alone, going there without the cultivation of a Heavenly Monarch would undoubtedly be suicide.
At present, the most important thing is to determine your current location and then find a way to get to Tianting Star or Fengyuan Star.
Looking around, Luo Cheng saw a vast desert. The teleportation array, placed in this deserted place, remained undamaged.
"Boom!" A series of booming sounds came from the sky. Luo Cheng looked up and saw an airplane, which was about the same size as the A380 of Earth.
This shows that the planet's technology is quite advanced. This gave Luo Cheng a strange feeling; he hadn't expected that such a high-tech planet existed in this ethereal world.
In reality, there are numerous planets in the Misty World, and Li Qiang has only visited a few of them.
For example, it would take hundreds of years to travel from Linming Star to Fengyuan Star using a teleportation array. Between the two planets, there are many other planets, some without life and others with life.
Throughout Li Qiang's cultivation process, he was either on the run or on the run, which prompted his cultivation to grow rapidly.
Immortal stones are essential for traveling in the universe. Luo Cheng had used some immortal stones during his cultivation, and now he didn't have many left.
The most important thing right now is to find a way to get some immortal stones.
Of course, given Fu Shan's personality and character, he would definitely come looking for him. However, Luo Cheng didn't want to place all his hopes on others; he decided to find his own way out.
In addition, being on this alien planet for the first time is a good opportunity to experience the local customs and culture.
Luo Cheng flew to the top of the mountain and looked down at the city in front of him.
At first glance, he felt as if he had traveled back to Earth, the city remarkably similar to the one he had before his journey. Skyscrapers stood tall, traffic flowed freely, a scene of bustling prosperity.
Luo Cheng carefully sensed the presence of the cultivator but found none, which made his heart skip a beat.
Without cultivators, finding immortal stones would be quite troublesome.
It's possible that this was originally a cultivation planet, and after the immortal stones were all mined out, the cultivators all left.
Just like Blue Star, there are no cultivators left now, and even the teleportation arrays have disappeared. Only a grandmaster of cultivation like Fu Shan has the ability to return to Blue Star.
According to Luo Cheng's original plan, he was to go to the Heavenly Court Star to obtain the cultivation technique.
However, there's no need to rush this. Cultivating divinity requires sufficient spiritual attainment.
Luo Cheng walked forward step by step, his feet treading on the void, as if there were invisible steps in the void.
After entering the city, Luo Cheng landed on the ground and thought to himself, "I thought I was going to Tianting Star, but I didn't expect to end up here."
This place is so similar to Earth, both being technologically advanced planets, that Luo Cheng felt like he was coming home.
But when he walks alone on the street, he feels out of place.
After all, cultivators are already extraordinary and have a fundamental difference from ordinary people, making it difficult for them to integrate into the world of cultivation.
First, there's the difference in constitution. Cultivators have completely purified the impurities in their bodies, making them light and agile, and they even exude a faint fragrance.
Since ordinary people eat grains and cereals, they inevitably have a sweaty smell.
At this moment, Luo Cheng fully understood that immortals and mortals seemed to be two completely different worlds.
Back on Earth, he already found it difficult to integrate into the mortal world. However, it was the place he had lived for twenty years, so the sense of rejection wasn't as strong.
It was only here that he truly experienced that sense of alienation. No wonder mortals are unaware of the existence of immortals, and immortals don't interact much with mortals; these are two different levels of existence.
However, Luo Cheng forgot one thing.
Beautiful things attract people wherever they are. Just like a beautiful woman, she becomes the focus of attention wherever she goes.
As a cultivator, Luo Cheng possessed an extraordinary temperament and a perfectly proportioned physique, naturally attracting a great deal of attention.
When he walks down the street, most women can't help but glance at him.
"So handsome." "So stylish."
Some girls wanted to approach him and chat him up, but they just couldn't muster the courage.
Of course, there were also some self-important women who wanted Luo Cheng's contact information.
After refusing several people, Luo Cheng took off and flew away.
"A god! He's a god!"
Luo Cheng was unaware that there were still a few cultivators on Apocalypse Star, so there were still people here who knew the legends of immortals.
Soon, videos of immortals appearing on the streets spread. Cultivators began to pay attention to Luo City.
"It's been a long time since any cultivators have come."
The cultivators on Apocalypse Star also knew that there were still teleportation arrays on their planet, but they could no longer use them.
To use the teleportation array, one must first reach the Nascent Soul stage, and secondly, activating the teleportation array requires immortal stones.
However, the cultivators on Apocalypse Star are no longer able to meet these two conditions.
"Is it possible to find that senior?"
"That senior did not hide his whereabouts; we can use satellites to search for him."
This time, Luo Cheng didn't choose to stay in a hotel. The impurities of the mortal world made him feel very uncomfortable.
He found a hilltop, sat down, and began to regulate his breathing.
Suddenly, several cultivators hurriedly climbed up the mountain and cautiously approached Luo Cheng.
"Senior," they said respectfully.
Luo Cheng looked at the cultivators in front of him and shook his head inwardly. The highest cultivation level among them was only at the Spirit Void stage.
Luo Cheng asked, "Are there no Nascent Soul stage cultivators on this planet?"
Everyone present looked embarrassed.
"No," they replied helplessly.
The resources of Apocalypse Star have been exhausted. Without resources, it will be difficult for cultivators to break through their cultivation levels.
This is why the path of cultivation on Apocalypse Star has become increasingly difficult. In a few years, the cultivators of Apocalypse Star may completely disappear and eventually be forgotten by the cultivation world.
Luo Cheng then asked, "What do you want with me?"
"Senior, we want to leave here."
Luo Cheng understood; these people wanted him to take them away.
Originally, Luo Cheng wanted to get some immortal stones for teleportation, but now it seems that the chances are slim.
Luo Cheng said, "I'm here to travel, and I won't be going back for the time being."
"Senior, we just want to leave this planet."
These people looked helpless, trapped on Apocalypse Star, unable to break through to the Nascent Soul stage, and ultimately destined to die of old age here.
"I will not take you away," Luo Cheng said firmly.
After hearing Luo Cheng's words, everyone was filled with despair.
The group exchanged glances, then suddenly shouted, "Attack!"
Several beams of light flashed, and Luo Cheng, caught off guard, suffered a hidden loss.
He never expected that these people would turn on him so easily.
Clearly, these people wanted to steal the immortal stones from Luo Cheng, and then use them to activate a teleportation array to leave Tianqi Star.
Luo Cheng was still a novice cultivator, lacking experience, and was thus ambushed.
Fortunately, he was a level above these people and did not suffer a fatal injury.
However, Luo Cheng still felt his nascent soul tremble, and for a moment, he was unable to muster his true essence.
Therefore, Luo Cheng used his escape technique and instantly traveled a thousand miles.
Seeing Luo Cheng leave, everyone sighed, filled with helplessness.
They knew in their hearts that they had now made a formidable enemy.
"He's injured. We need to find him as soon as possible and deliver the fatal blow."
On the other side, after Luo Cheng fled to a mountainous area, he discovered that his nascent soul had been affected and he could not use his true essence for the time being.
This taught Luo Cheng a profound lesson.
Luo Cheng thought to himself that those people would definitely not give up, and he needed to find a place to rest and recuperate.
