Infinite Save: I Cultivate Immortality Through Reincarnation - Chapter 311: Overwhelming Dominance!

The Myriad Transformations Realm.

If one were to speak of the greatest disparity between the Passable God Realm and the Myriad Transformations Realm, it would undoubtedly be the difference between the true qi in the qi sea and innate true energy.

But for Chen Yan, it was not so.

The dozens of strands of clear-colored rainbow light, derived from the Hidden Immortal Art and entrenched above his qi sea, whether in the profundity of their essence or the vastness of their might, almost completely surpassed his newly born innate true energy.

Yet, innate true energy was ultimately born from within Chen Yan’s qi sea. The subtlety of its transformations and the effortless control he wielded over it were far beyond what the clear-colored rainbow light could compare to.

The latter was more like a type of “spiritual artifact” that Chen Yan could activate and wield, while innate true energy was completely born from the very source of Chen Yan’s cultivation foundation.

Compared to the last cycle of reincarnation, the greatest enhancement Chen Yan had obtained at this moment was not that strand of clear-colored innate true energy he had acquired, but his qi sea.

Clear-colored true qi!

Vast, boundless, and endless clear-colored true qi surged within his qi sea, coursing through his meridians.

Every strand of true qi shimmered with a more restrained yet potent fluctuation. This was the greatest enhancement the Hidden Immortal Art, having reached a state of miraculous proficiency, had brought to Chen Yan.

“Esteemed guest?”

Seeing Chen Yan unresponsive, the inn’s waiter called out to him again.

“To think such an inn is still operating on Fusheng Island. How truly peculiar.”

Chen Yan finally spoke.

“Ah, esteemed guest, you flatter us with such words.”

The waiter laughed.

“Our inn here exists precisely to serve distinguished guests like yourself who come to the island!”

A familiar-sounding sales pitch.

“Are you the proprietor?”

Chen Yan asked.

“You jest, esteemed guest. Look at me, I’m just a humble handyman doing odd jobs.”

The waiter replied.

“A Qi Sea Realm cultivator working odd jobs here. Then, could it be…”

Chen Yan paused briefly, lifting his gaze towards the direction of the closed windows on the inn’s second floor.

“…those two fellow Daoists over there aren’t the proprietors of this place either?”

The expression of the waiter standing before Chen Yan stiffened.

Si Youyou, standing beside Chen Yan, glanced at her brother, looked at the waiter in front of them, and finally raised her head to peer towards the inn’s second floor.

The young girl discovered nothing.

Two breaths of time later, the windows on the inn’s second floor slowly swung open outward, revealing two cultivators clad in daoist robes.

Chen Yan remembered their faces. They were the very two who would soon attack him and Si Youyou.

Only, at this moment, they were not yet wearing those gray-green martial attire.

“Junior Chang Shou pays his respects to senior.”

“Junior Duan Ming pays his respects to senior.”

Both cultivators at the second-floor window stood up and bowed respectfully in Chen Yan’s direction from the courtyard below.

Chang Shou and Duan Ming felt it was strange.

When the young man and the girl had entered the inn together, these two cultivators, both with cultivation levels at or above the mid-stage Passable God Realm, had instantly seen through their realms at a glance.

One at the early-stage Passable God Realm, the other at the mid-stage Qi Sea Realm.

But just moments ago, the flow of true qi from that young man had suddenly become shrouded in mist, turning mysterious.

Initially quite puzzled, Chang Shou and Duan Ming felt the hairs on their necks stand on end the moment they realized Chen Yan had already detected them hiding within the inn.

From the very beginning, Chang Shou and Duan Ming had been concealing their auras.

If that young man could discover them, it could only mean one thing.

The other party’s cultivation realm was above theirs, and the gap was not insignificant…

The Myriad Transformations Realm or higher.

Upon realizing this, the two had no time to ponder why the young man’s realm had only appeared to be early-stage Passable God Realm when he first entered the inn.

After weighing the situation for two breaths, they stood up and bowed towards Chen Yan in the courtyard.

Chen Yan merely looked up with a faint smile at these two Passable God Realm cultivators on the inn’s second floor, saying nothing.

“…This junior and Fellow Daoist Duan beside me are not the proprietors of this inn. We are merely travelers resting here temporarily.”

Seeing Chen Yan remained unresponsive, Chang Shou opened his mouth to explain.

“I don’t believe you.”

Chen Yan shook his head with a smile.

For Passable God Realm cultivators, Fusheng Island was not large at all.

Thirteen hundred li in length, eight hundred li in width.

There was no need for any rest stops.

For cultivators at the Martial Spring Realm and below, this inn might serve some purpose. But for cultivators at the Qi Sea Realm and above, this inn held absolutely no value.

Even so, the waiter of this inn was a Qi Sea Realm cultivator.

No matter how one thought about it, it defied common sense.

Furthermore, considering the many abandoned boats left on Fusheng Island’s shores, it signified that many cultivators who set foot on the island never returned.

Connecting all this information with his own experience from the previous cycle of reincarnation, the answer became quite clear.

This was a den of iniquity, a black-market inn that devoured people without spitting out the bones.

“Send someone in charge to speak with me.”

Chen Yan said slowly.

Silence fell over the inn’s courtyard once more for a moment, then the cultivator named Chang Shou bowed and spoke.

“Senior…”

“Gaaahhh!!!”

The waiter standing beside Chen Yan suddenly began to scream in agony, then collapsed to the ground, writhing and rolling frantically. After struggling for only a few breaths, he lay flat on his back, motionless. Black smoke slowly seeped from his seven orifices, accompanied by the smell of something charred.

The Li Fire Seal.

Just moments ago, Chen Yan had activated the Li Fire Seal, remotely igniting the waiter’s qi sea.

“Send someone in charge to speak.”

Chen Yan repeated.

A look of desperate resolve flashed in the eyes of the two cultivators on the inn’s second floor. Immediately, the cultivator named Chang Shou unleashed a vicious surge of true qi, aiming straight for Si Youyou who stood beside Chen Yan.

Yet, when that true qi was still several zhang away from Si Youyou, it vanished without a trace.

In the next instant, Duan Ming, wielding a spiritual artifact, appeared right before Chen Yan, his gaze ferocious as he swung his blade down in a slash—

“AAAAAAAH!”

A scream erupted as crimson-red flames burst from Duan Ming’s throat. He knelt on the ground, his life extinguished at Chen Yan’s feet in an instant.

From beginning to end, Chen Yan had not moved a single muscle.

The disparity between a Passable God Realm cultivator and a Myriad Transformations Realm cultivator was simply too vast.

Setting aside Chen Yan’s clear-colored true qi and innate true energy for now.

Whether it was total true qi volume, range of spiritual sense, or the manipulation and application of true qi, a Myriad Transformations Realm cultivator held absolute, overwhelming dominance over a Passable God Realm cultivator.

Chang Shou, still standing on the inn’s second floor, narrowed his eyes, his legs trembling slightly.

He had considered the possibility of his own death.

But witnessing the horrific demise of the waiter and Duan Ming, tortured and burned to death by that strange technique, still filled him with dread.

The opponent was ruthless and vicious. He would definitely not spare him.

Run.

Even if the chance was less than one in ten thousand.
