Once no one was there to do everything for her, Eloise had to push herself to plan her future. Although she was at the peak of level eight and faced little danger, she knew she had limits. She was essentially a reflection of Weststar's legacy, a coming-of-age gift from Rozi. However, in terms of combat and strategy, she was still a child. Otherwise, Rozi would not have worried so much about her.Adrian had long seen from Eloise's behavior that this little girl was no pushover and was very capable of causing trouble. Since Eloise was already at the threshold of a breakthrough, he decided to let her manage the Exile Realm. This way, she would not be bored or in danger. It was a perfect solution that also honored Rozi's wishes. According to Rozi's hopes, she wanted Eloise to spend her days innocently in a utopian-like place Adrian described.Adrian was worried about his daughter. Therefore, he decided to have a serious talk with her about the future. As a newly-minted father, he was con
"Looks like I have a younger brother. So you’ve decided to abandon me since you have another child?" Eloise said, her voice growing louder and more accusatory with each word.Adrian speechless. He hurriedly tried to explain that that wasn’t the case, but no matter what he said, Eloise wasn’t hearing it. Defeated, he decided to change the subject and informed Eloise of his plan: to rectify the karmic entanglement caused by the faith he had established, erasing the beliefs of the people in the Southern Forest and the South Sea to avoid attracting the attention of that entity.The entity could sense level-nine immortals because their emergence generated faith power, which came from heaven rather than believers' prayers. The entity likely decided to cleanse anything that emitted this faith power. If Adrian didn't sever these beliefs, the entity might come down to eliminate the threat. He thought it best to avoid provoking such a powerful being."I have no choice but to let go," Adrian l
Adrian felt like a string, with countless streams of mortal destinies making knots in him. He couldn't distinguish between those from the Southern Forest, the South Sea, and the Exile Realm because some of those from the Exile Realm originated from the South Sea and the Southern Forest. This created a deadlock. He wanted to resolve it, but it seemed almost impossible without making a bold decision.‘Won't everything I did in the Exile Realm be in vain then? How am I supposed to accept that…’ He stood there, deep in thought. Eventually, he chose to temporarily give up and went to ask Eloise if she had any good ideas.After Adrian explained the situation to Eloise, she believed he should have the courage to make a bold decision. Since that entity chose a secure path of merging laws to gain faith power, she believed Adrian shouldn't take any shortcuts either. The truth was that even if one recklessly plundered the faith power, they wouldn't necessarily be crushed by karma. However, the
In other words, laws were unique and universal. Even the big shots outside of this world had to go through stages like the Body Training Stage, Foundation Stage, Golden Core Stage, the eight ranks, Integration Stage, and Void Abyss Stage before reaching the pinnacle of the immortal path.Eloise looked at Adrian with feigned pity and said, "Old man, you have to work hard in your training. Don’t worry, I'll supervise you.”This left Adrian feeling speechless. It seemed like Eloise intended to train him like Rozi had done with her. When Rozi taught Eloise, she was absolutely uncompromising. If Eloise wished to sleep, she was made to practice first. To go outside and play, she had no chance until she finished training.Under Rozi's strict guidance, Eloise had been pushed to level eight before Rozi's passing. Coupled with being from Weststar and possessing the Water Ethereal Physique, Eloise’s progress had been extremely rapid. Adrian, on the other hand, was just an outsider with poor ta
Adrian sought out anything of value, down to every blade of grass and tree. He even engaged in buying and trading celestial veins, ensuring his small world possessed them through the use of Celestisorb Trees. However, he felt that it would still take a long time for his small world to naturally form celestial veins.While contemplating all this, he had already severed nearly half of his karma. Ordinary people suddenly felt empty inside, but he ignored them and continued using the Tri-Seals to sever their karmic entanglements.After a long time, Adrian dealt with all potential problems and conducted several searches, feeling satisfied that everything was in order. He then visited Eloise and left again shortly after.With a clear goal in mind, Adrian rolled up his sleeves and got to work. The first thing he did was gain a place of residence—a sizable mansion—to establish his reputation and earn what he needed. However, he couldn't accomplish this without Lexie's help, so he quickly co
However, an opportunity had arisen. Alchemists in the maritime immortal regions devised a new alchemical method using the inner cores of dark beasts. It was well-known that dark beasts from grade two onwards produced inner cores, and these inner cores were used in training. Immortals would absorb the aura essence within the cores, however, they had discovered that the aura essence inside was unevenly distributed and had a very low absorption rate, which was seen as a significant waste. After several generations of effort, the maritime immortal regions mastered a breakthrough technology: using inner cores of dark beasts to craft celestial pills.Inner cores from grade two dark beasts could be refined into pills suitable for intermediate Body Training Stage immortals. Inner cores from grade three dark beasts could be crafted into pills suitable for advanced Body Training Stage immortals, and so forth. With high-grade inner cores, they could even produce pills that benefitted immortals u
If Adrian’s guess was correct, there should be many seeds of celestial plants and herbs here. This intrigued him the most. ‘I don't need mature plants immediately, and I'm not in a hurry for them. Seeds are also good,’ he thought.Adrian had a habit of understanding local customs and avoiding taboos wherever he went. This was particularly important in the maritime immortal regions, where each island had its own laws governed by the island leader. The leader's temperament determined the fate of an island, so even as a prominent figure, Adrian needed to tread carefully in someone else's territory.While he pondered this, a young immortal approached him, smiling warmly. By his appearance, the young man seemed to be under twenty."Greetings, sir. Are you new to Celesta Rain Island?" the young immortal asked, displaying considerable etiquette and intelligence, which impressed Adrian.Nevertheless, he replied indifferently, "So what if I am?"Internally, he became alert. A level-seven i
"You see, large islands like Celesta Rain Island belong to the deep sea, what the mainland immortal regions call the Outer Seas. The Outer Seas are vast and expansive, making it difficult to accurately count the number of islands. However, all the rich-resource islands have already been occupied, which is why islands like Celesta Rain exist. These islands serve as transit stations. You can choose to venture further to find uninhabited islands or even reefs in the sea to establish your own cave residence. “However, the caves near Celesta Rain belong to the island leader, so you can also rent them. There are distinctions in quality. The micro-islands near Celesta Rain are directly governed by it, so to attract others to rent, they offer abundant resources like celestial veins and formations as complementary services. This will spare you the need to worry about such things. You only need to pay with essence stones to enjoy ready-made amenities. There are not only patrols by immortals bu
