《This Young Master is not Cannon Fodder》Chapter 204: Realm Artifact
Advertisement
Sect Master Xia presented the tiny Vast Heaven Islands with both hands. Under the Concealed Emperor's intent, the tiny pseudo realm floated from Sect Master Xia's hand to the immortal emperor’s hand. While the Concealed Emperor was studying Tianyi's Vast Heaven Islands, Sect Master Xia did not move and silently recalled Buzhou Immortal Sect's history.
The rumors that the Buzhou Immortal Sect was descended from the Immortal Court were not rumors but the truth. The forbidden grounds of the Buzhou Immortal Sect were the resting spot of the core of the Immortal Court, and the palace he was currently kneeling in was the throne hall of the heavenly bureaucracy that governed the Three Realms.
Before the end of the primordial era, when the Three Thousand Immortal Realm system was still the Three Realms System, the Immortal Court existed in a special realm that oversaw the Three Realms. It existed outside the river of spacetime, and only those acknowledged by the Immortal Court could enter even if the other party was a divinity.
After the great catastrophe that brought about the end of the primordial era, the Three Realms changed. What once was three worlds shattered into the numerous realms that formed the modern Three Thousand Immortal Realms System. When the three thousand realms had just finished forming, the remnant of the Immortal Court landed into the embryonic Huang Realm. To be more precise, the original name was Yu Huang Realm, but the Yu character was quietly taken off as time passed.
Thus was the origin of the Buzhou Immortal Sect. Even if it was just the remnant of the Immortal Court, compared to other legacies of the primordial era, the legacies of the Immortal Court remnant were more complete. As time passed, the Buzhou Immortal Sect quietly erased all traces of the Immortal Court, and the location turned into a forbidden ground for unknown reasons.
As the orthodox descendants of the Immortal Court, the Buzhou Immortal Sect wished to revive the glory of the Immortal Court, so they have always aimed at conquering the Three Thousand Immortal Realms System. However, just like when the Heavenly Lord of Primordial Beginnings competed for supremacy with the Heavenly Lord of Numinous Treasures and Heavenly Lord of Dao and Virtue, the Buzhou Immortal Sect also had its competitors, namely the Numinous Realm and Buddhist Realm.
Thinking about the Buzhou Immortal Sect's rivals, Sect Master Xia couldn't help but frown in worry. Although the Buddhist Realm couldn't compare to the Huang Realm in history and power, they were the sole hegemon of their own hidden world. The Numinous Realm was even more worrying since the Numinous Sword Sect had complete hegemony too. Of the three, only the Buzhou Immortal Sect failed to unite the realm under one power. Perhaps, if the Saintly Scholar School did not appear, they would have long accomplished this step, but alas, history was set in stone.
Sect Master Xia was broken out of his thoughts when Tianyi's Vast Heaven Islands was returned. "Concealed Emperor, what are your orders?"
"Have Disciple Xi produce more of these pseudo realms. For raw materials, we can provide him with realm essence." The Concealed Sovereign ordered.
"Realm essence? But that is too precious. Even our stock is low, and I don't know when we can gather more." Sect Master Xia cried out in shock.
Realm essence was the energy used by realms to form. It was an abundant energy source when the primordial era just ended, but as time passed, less realm essence existed as more and more realms were birthed. Nowadays, to gather realm essence, the sect would have to send out immortal monarchs and emperors to gather them from destroyed realms.

The Buzhou Immortal Sect could directly destroy a realm for realm essence instead of waiting, but that would incur a massive amount of karmic sin. If karmic sin only landed on one immortal who was nearing the end of his lifespan, the sect might've ordered such an operation, but the karmic sin would be spread to anyone related to the destroyer. In other words, the whole Buzhou Immortal Sect would be drowned in karmic sin.
Even grand elders of the sect would not be given realm essence lightly, so for the Concealed Emperor to order realm essence to be given to Tianyi as raw material was shocking. Not just Sect Master Xia, any other elder who heard the Concealed Emperor's orders would also be unwilling.
"So what if realm essence is precious. It is accumulating dust in the storage. Besides, this transaction is highly profitable." The Concealed Emperor said. Seeing Sect Master Xia not understand, he explained further. "Using realm essence to exchange for a pseudo realm that could be forged into realm artifacts is a worthy deal."
Sect Master Xia opened his mouth, but no sound came out. Slowly he closed it and asked with a trembling voice. "L-Little Xi, Little Xi is just a nascent soul grandmaster. Can he really do it?"
The Concealed Emperor pointed at the Vast Heaven Islands in front of Sect Master Xia. "The proof is before you."
Sect Master Xia stared at the Vast Heaven Islands. Before, he only admired the portable domain Tianyi created, but he didn't think that a mere cultivator who was not yet an immortal could create something that could be used to refine realm artifacts!
Realm artifacts weren't, as the names suggested, realms that were artifacts but artifacts forged using realms. Being the master of a realm artifact wasn't any worse than being a realmlord, and in some aspects, surpassed them.
A realm artifact could come in many forms. The most classic design was an artifact that held a realm within. The cultivator could carry a realm wherever he went, and if he encountered any trouble, could hide in it or bring his enemy and suppress them within it. There were even defensive or offensive realm artifacts, but everything they had in common was that they contained the Law of Space and all the force of a realm.
The Buzhou Immortal Sect's realm artifacts could be counted on one hand. From this, it can be seen how rare realm artifacts were. The reason was that the creation of a realm artifact required a realm as raw materials. Not even realm essence could replace it. The end result was the death of a realm. Like gathering realm essence, few would ever act in such a suicidal manner unless they were alone in the world with no fetters.
As there are different classifications of realms, realm artifacts could be separated into peak, high, mid, and low-grade realm artifacts. If they were to create a realm artifact using Tianyi's created pseudo realm, it would be the lowest and never before seen grade, low-grade pseudo realm artifact.
But it was still a realm artifact in the end!
"Can it really be possible?" Sect Master Xia asked one more time, unable to believe the information.
The Concealed Emperor wasn't impatient due to Sect Master Xia's disbelief and only nodded. "Remember, any requests from Disciple Xi can be accepted. Even if he asks for a divine artifact."
At first, Sect Master Xia wanted to say it was too much, but thinking about the benefits that the pseudo realms could bring, he felt that it was a simple price to pay. "Understood."

Sect Master Xia quickly left the forbidden grounds. His heart was pounding as if a hundred horses were stomping on his heart, but it didn't feel painful at all. On the contrary, he felt a sense of excitement. With this, the Buzhou Immortal Sect might even be able to mass produce realm artifacts and finally unite the Huang Realm.
Tianyi was on Jade Peak when Sect Master Xia found him.
After Sect Master Xia took away the Vast Heaven Islands, Tianyi and the other disciples were surprised to find out most of their dead fellow disciples were actually alive. As it turned out, there was an elder secretly teleporting the 'slain' disciples. The only ones to have died were the ones who died under Leviathan Ancestor's attack.
Upon hearing this, Bai Weiwei, whose hopes were dashed once more, wanted to cause another ruckus but was quickly stopped by the Bright Ascension Sect disciples who had been eyeing her this whole time.
After that small episode, the disciples returned to their abodes. Tianyi, Daoyi, and Xi Ri returned to Jade Peak. Xia Yushan and the other disciples returned to their residences, and the disciples from the other sects returned to the palaces allotted to them.
"Is something the matter, Sect Master Xia?" Tianyi asked. He could tell that Sect Master Xia was very excited for some reason.
"Little Xi, can you make more pseudo realms like this?" Sect Master Xia asked as he returned the Vast Heaven Islands to Tianyi.
"I think I should be able to," Tianyi said, unsure of why Sect Master Xia was asking. In his eyes, since he could do it, there should be plenty of others in the sect who should be able to accomplish such a feat.
"Would you be able to create one now? If you are, you can make any request, and the sect will do its best to satisfy you." Sect Master Xia.
"Huh?" Tianyi said. "I can, but I need some mountains, and it might take months to years."
"That's nothing. I'll bring you to them right now!" Sect Master Xia said as he used his immortal qi to bring Tianyi into the air. "Right, are there any requirements for the mountains?"
Tianyi blinked at Sect Master Xia's eagerness and was a bit dazzled by the sudden sequence of events. "The more spiritual qi, the better."
Sect Master Xia nodded, and the two soon found themselves at a mountain range. There were so many mountains that it appeared to be a field of cones from high in the sky. "Here."
Tianyi looked at the spatial ring given to him by Sect Master Xia in confusion. "Sect Master, what's this?"
"It's a spatial ring holding realm essence. Instead of using the space of the Huang Realm, use this as a substitute." Sect Master Xia explained. He had only heard a summarization of the process from Realmlord Demonseal. After receiving the Concealed Emperor's order, he gathered as much information as possible before meeting Tianyi.
The Huang Realm wasn't a realm with a master, so if Tianyi were to slice a part of the Huang Realm away, he would incur heavy karmic sin. Don't mention what Mengfei would do to Sect Master Xia if he allowed Tianyi to be covered in karmic sin, even he himself couldn't bear to. If Tianyi died due to karmic sin, how would the Buzhou Immortal Sect continue to create realm artifacts?
Tianyi used his spiritual sense to inspect the realm essence inside the spatial ring. Upon observation, he discovered that the realm essence was very similar to his true qi of chaos, only on a higher level. What relation does true qi of chaos and realm essence hold?
He didn't think long. Once he felt he understood the realm essence enough, Tianyi began to start the creation of a second pseudo realm. Tapping the jade pendant on his waist, the Mountains and Seas Formation appeared and covered over a hundred mountains. Unlike the first time, Tianyi had more experience and wanted to create the best one he could, not to mention it was at the behest of the sect master. It felt like taking a test and getting anything short of excellence was not allowed.
Off at the side, Sect Master Xia was surprised by how fast Tianyi started. Shouldn't you take some more time to prepare? I understand that it only took you six months the first time, but you had the secret aid of Elder Demonseal at the time.
However, as time passed, Sect Master Xia found himself speechless. This...this...this has traces of a great law! How can a mortal cultivator like Little Xi command the power of a law?!
Sect Master Xia stared at Tianyi with his eyes almost popping out. Upon closer inspection, he understood that it was not as if Tianyi understood the law he was using. In fact, Tianyi probably didn't even know he was using a law that governed the universe. If Sect Master Xia had to guess, it was closer to an innate ability rather than a technique. How did Little Xi come to possess such an ability?
Soon, Sect Master Xia didn't have time to care. When Tianyi reached the next step and started to use the realm essence, Sect Master Xia found traces of the Law of Fire, Law of Water, Law of Wood, Law of Metal, and Law of Earth in the process. Just what kind of law is Little Xi's innate ability related to? I can even discern some aspects of the Law of Spacetime too. No wonder the Concealed Emperor told me to pay special attention to him before he even started cultivating and had me prepare the Primordial Heavenly Scripture.
Sect Master Xia cultivated the Five Element Method. Of the five books, Sect Master Xia had already mastered three of them. Each book, once mastered, would allow a cultivator to reach the Seamless Immortal Realm. Right now, Sect Master Xia was still mastering the fourth book. If he mastered all five, he would easily reach the peak of Origin Immortal Realm.
A year later, Sect Master Xia held the newly created pseudo realm in hand, satisfied. He was satisfied with gains in his cultivation and the results he would present to the Concealed Emperor. As Tianyi used a hundred mountains to form the pseudo realm, it was named Hundred Mountain Pseudo Realm. Compared to the Vast Heaven Islands, it was superior in all aspects.
"Little Xi, what rewards do you want? The sect will handsomely reward you for each one you create." Sect Master Xia said with a doting smile. Before, he treated Tianyi well because of the Concealed Emperor and his status as Grand Elder Xi's son, but now, Tianyi was becoming more pleasing to the eye by the second.
"Do you really need me to do it?" Tianyi asked. He had been confused for a long time. "Can't you ask anyone else?"
"Little Xi, it seems that you do not understand how irreplaceable you are. No one else in the Buzhuo Immortal Sect or Huang Realm can do as you did." Sect Master Xia said seriously. "You must not divulge this information to anyone else."
Tianyi blinked. Am I really that amazing? He knew he was stronger than other nascent soul grandmasters but never thought he could accomplish something that immortal emperors couldn't. Suddenly an issue popped up in his mind. "But when I created the Vast Heaven Islands, a lot of disciples saw it."
"You don't have to worry. A soul immortal has already altered their memories. Even the disciples of other sects are not exempt." Sect Master Xia said. How could he allow the other sects to know they have such a trump card?
Oy, oy, oy! I feel like you just casually said something terrifying. Tianyi snarked in his mind. "Can you remove memories and evidence of me comprehending a spacetime concept then?"
"Spacetime concept?" Sect Master Xia said. Is that the law Little Xi's innate ability belongs to? But that isn't right. I feel as if it is more than the spacetime law. Huh...Little Xi comprehended a spacetime concept?!
After settling the shocks in his heart, Sect Master Xia nodded. Since they were already altering the disciples' memories, doing it a second time won't matter. "Now that you know how irreplaceable your abilities are, what kind of reward do you want?"

Grey Worlds
A mysterious incident occurred on a otherwise normal science centered world where all of the children from the age range of eight to sixteen suddenly vanished. “Where have their kids gone and will they ever return?” The now childless parents never got to really ask that question, because a strange new element replaced their lost children. This element slowly mutated the various animals that they once ruled over with their technology to the point that they were immune to their modern weaponry. The barren land of savages on a continent far away from theirs also had their children taken, but they easily mutated just like the beasts and only grew stronger thanks to the incident. A revolution of animals eventually took place after the mutations started to cause the animals to understand just how badly the humans ruined their lives and planet. Humans were the slowest to figure out how to use this strange new element to evolve, while their opponents were evolving and growing stronger by the day they couldn’t even surpass their modern technology. When humanity was on the brink of extinction a long forgotten event finally ended and their children finally started to return from the various worlds they were summoned to! It turns out that the mysterious new element that they didn’t know what to call was mana and that it’s everywhere in some fantasy planets. The children brought back a increase in technology and techniques to grow stronger with, which caused the humans to finally be able to build safe havens for their race. They grew stronger and started to finally adapt to their brand new environment. This is the story of a orphan who was taken away from his world, before he could gain a sense of attachment to the world. Who only has his older sister to care about and how he ends up adapting to the new world in front of him.------------------Dog notes by doggo First 'five' chapters aren't what the story is really about and is more of a prologue. The reason why some are separated into parts is because Doggo originally posted them as a entire chapter. The main setting is Ghost's actual world and not any foreign world. So this story was already posted once to another site or this site three years ago… and Dog is finally ending that three year hiatus! The explanation on why Dog was on a three year hiatus would of been written in the review section, but rrl doesn't allow self reviews. I'd have to create a alt just to self review which they obviously don't want even tho I'd not give myself any stars so its going to be here instead. The update schedule is a chapter a week till Dog get a editor and then two chapters a week till Dog gets enough money to pay for Dog’s bills. The final goal is to release a chapter every other day. Dog writes 4k word chapters so they are about twice as long as some of the other authors so every other day is actually more like once a day. ------------------- The part that was supposed to be the 'review' which Dog wont bother editing out repeat infomation since it wasn't supposed to go here in the first place. The first thing Dog will go over is what changed for the first 5 chapters, so that anyone who still remembers Dog's little novel and wants to continue from where Dog originally left off can decide whether or not to reread it. Also Dog is moving over to qidan simply because dog like the app they have. Dog won't go premium even if Qidan tells dog to and will simply move back to royalroad or create a blog.The things that changed over the years are mainly two important things. The first is that Dog changed the first person point of view to a third person, because Dog read a really bad first person novel and it reminded dog of dogs own novel. Dog also changed the thoughts of the character to be - - instead of italics. Finally dog changed chapter 3 completely to make the mc not seem like a homicidal maniac and introduced a important character in chapter 3.What happened to do in the three years that dog was away? Was dog at college and now needs money to eat? Was dog off in space after successfully becoming a astronaut and has now returned home with a completed novel or two? The answer is actually quite plain dog graduated from highschool and was supposed to only spend a year at dogs owners house to choose what major dog wanted to go to college for.Dog didn't do that and is still stuck with dogs owners and is sick of being a neet. Dog wants to move and buy doggy food, but dog is antisocial and doesn't want to work a simple 9 to 5 job for the rest of dogs life. Dog is a reader before dog is a author and the reason why dog got into writing was because dog wanted to write a novel without all the things dog finds annoying. Dog spent the first year reading various novels and dropping various novels. Dog is all caught up and has to much free time on dogs paws. The first year that Dog took off was the very same year that qidan came out so dog was naturally overloaded with free chapters. But now that pemium exists dog naturally has to limit the amount dog can read. Dog is addicted to reading like my very own readers and can understand your frustrations for dog disappearing for 3 years.Dog decided that dog will go back to writing 2 years ago. Dog wanted a decent stockpile incase dog has any other emergency so dog didn't post for a year but then dog decided to change the point of view which took another year.Dog has a patreon page https://www.patreon.com/mclaindog but there isn't any tiers there or goals till dog gets a editor. My final goal is to release a chapter every other day, but as long as Dog gets a editor Dog will do two free chapters a week.Dog will probably also make a kofi for anyone who just wants to send dog a tip and can't afford to donate money monthly while maybe having bonus chapters if the tip jar gets filled.
