《Celestial Journey》[System and Sealed World]
Advertisement
As Alexander was flying into space looking for some more Tier-2 Worlds he soon froze in the middle of nowhere, seeing this one would think he had been sneak attacked, others would argue that he was sick.
But it was much worse...
'I swear I heard a 'ding' !' Alexander did not make a single move, as if he had become a statue, trying his best to listen around him, his forehead drenched in sweat.
*Ding !*
"Here !" Turning his body around and punching the void, shattering an entire Tier-1 World that was close by.
Unfortunetaly his nightmare had just begun as he quickly realised that his punch failed to connect to anything.
'There is a stupid system near me !'
*Ding !* *Ding !* *Ding !*
As these sounds echoed inside his ears Alexander immediately teleported a couple of hundred kilometers away, expecting to either see something or to have the sounds stop altogether.
However...
*Ding !* *Ding !* *Ding !* *Ding !*
*Ding !* *Ding !* *Ding !* *Ding !*
*Ding !* *Ding !* *Ding !* *Ding !*
*Ding !* *Ding !* *Ding !* *Ding !*
As the sound kept on resounding multiple times every instant while, along with it, blue interfaces made of light kept on appearing with gibberish written on it, Alexander could not help roaring.
"Screw you ! Who dared to put a Troll System on me ?! You better pray I don't find you !"
Indeed, in this Universe, systems of all sorts were present, often manufactured by either proficient artisans or by powerful cultivators, the former being the most commonly seen.
But has systems often used an interface to interact with it's user, many different types of systems had been designed, out of the myriad of types, the Troll Systems were meant to cause the host to suffer through both mental and physical pain as much and as long as possible. For weak beings, such systems caused most of them to die a horrible death often out of suicide. But for powerful beings like Alexander, other than feeling beyond annoyed, they also knew how to deal with such things.
And so, as Alexander finished roaring insults and hexes, he used his Divine Sense to encompass his entire being, from his flesh, cells, atoms, particules, his clothes and even his aura. It only took him a few seconds to find the system in question, it looked like a small dark green ball with, engraved on it's surface, the pattern of a blazing sun. The size of this ball was minuscule to say the least.
Seeing the pattern on it, Alexander understood what had happened, this system was put inside his body by the old man with orange hair he met right after being unsealed.
"..."
"I see..." Alexander couldn't stop his veins from bulging all over his body.
"Then I hope you won't mind me when I go and slaughter some of your sects !"
After finishing his rant, he simply continued to fly in search of interesting Tier-2 Worlds.
-----
After some time, Alexander was about to lament at his bad luck, not finding a fun target after a few days, when suddenly, he detected a group of people in the middle of space some hundreds of thousands of kilometers into
the distance.
'Are they natives from a higher plane ?'
Alexander could only speculate on their origin as inside the Lower Realms, beings that could go through the void's environment were a minority, he first thought that they were from Tier-3 Lower Worlds but the aura they emanated was not in the same league as the natives of the Lower Realms.

Getting closer, Alexander was only the more confused, as seeing the cultivation base of the crowd far into the void, he quickly evaluated their potential origins.
'Most of them are juniors at either the Earth Realm or the Sky Realm, the former being actually the rarer kind.'
Seeing this, Alexander raised his brow, as after all one would expect the lower cultivation base to be more common than the higher one. Not that it mattered as after all, such cultivation was mediocre at best.
Cultivators began at the Qi Sensing Realm, trying to breakthrough to the Qi Refining Realm, above was Fondation Establishement, Qi Master, Profound Realm, then Earth Realm and Sky Realm.
As for the elders around the juniors, few of them were middle aged men and women, all of them at different stages of the Heavenly Realm, the level right above the Sky Realm. As for the three old men, surprisingly they had a much higher cultivation base. One would expect them to be at the next major realm above the middle aged men and women, the Star Realm, yet they were actually above it.
Out of the three old men, two of them were right above at the Golden Core Realm, while the strongest one was even stronger at the Nascent Soul Realm.
'Makes no sense, since from the Golden Core Realm and upwards it's only possible to achieve within the Upper Realms at least.'
Like the Lower Realms, the Upper Realms were a layer within the Universe, hosting either Tier-4, Tier-5 or Tier-6 Worlds.
To reach the Golden Core Realm, one needed at least to be cultivating inside a Tier-4 World.
'Let alone travelling to the Lower Realms, why would they bring their juniors here, there is nothing of worth in the Lower Realms, especially for people originating from a higher plane...'
'Are they making them slaughter some natives of these Lower Realms to get used to murder ?'
Even while being puzzled, Alexander didn't seem to slow down one bit, if not for him going even faster than before.
After a few hours of slow flight, Alexander reached the group of cultivators.
-----
Inside the group, the young men and women, dressed in light green robes with yellow accents were asking questions to their elders.
"Senior brother Jin, I feel stuck, it has already been a few years, yet my body is stuck at the 9th Layer of the Earth Realm, even though my body should have advanced and reached the 10th Layer, giving me a Peak Earth-Tier Body I just can't manage to make it ! No matter what elexirs I use, they just feel ineffective !" A young man with short brown hair asked a blue robed middle aged man.
"Junior Tao, you must be patient ! A cultivator should not try and reach for shortcuts, knowing this, why are you using every elexirs you can find, I even saw you, last month, eating an elexir from the floor ! Where did you even find it ?!" Senior brother Jin could only look dumbfounded at his junior brother.
"Careful !"
Before he could continue berating this young man, he heard a rattling voice from behind. Turning around, he saw a black robed old man looking at the distance with a frown.
"What is wrong Grand Elder Yong ?" As the middle aged man was about to ask someone else he suddenly felt a powerful aura engulfing him, drenched in cold sweats, the man could only, like everyone else, struggle for his next breath.
Seeing the states of everyone in his group, the strongest old man, Grand Elder Yong, at the Nascent Soul Realm could only narrow his eyes at the young man in simple white robes a few tens of meters away from him and his juniors.

After all, to step mid-air one needed a Heavenly Realm cultivation base, as for basic flight, one must be a the Star Realm at least, so how could the old man be happy, having to deal with a suppressive aura on top of maintaining most of the group together.
"Your excellency, what may I help you with ?" The old man in black robes quickly tried to probe this mysterious young man.
"Why are you all here ?" Alexander asked a simple question, yet, when he noticed the reaction of the old man, he could not help feeling slightly surprised.
"Your excellency, we are just touring here, taking in the scenery for our juniors to gain inspiration from !" The old man seemed impatient, let alone his half-assed answer, Alexander could only ask again.
"Then why have you been here for at least a few hours ?"
The old man stiffened hearing this.
'He was watching us ?! I couldn't tell ! This man is dangerous !'
Panicking, the old man quickly answered, this time cupping his fists.
"We were just taking a break your excellency, can we not ?"
"No, no, you can... It's just that I feel like you lied to me too many times, my hand may just slip out of anger and kill one of you..."
The old man just stood unmoving after this answer, not believing someone would be so daring.
It was only after Alexander slapped the void in the direction of a young man in light green robes that the old man was forced out of his rêverie.
Seeing the unassuming blue colored gust of aura homing on the young man as well as it's might, the old man could only go all out, pushing his Peak Stage Nascent Soul Realm cultivation to it's limits before rushing forward, standing in between the young man and the attack, only after punching the gust of aura and barely managing to disperse it did the old man heave a sigh of relief. The next words of Alexander however felt like hammers crushing his ego.
"Barely... Aren't you a Peak Stage Nascent Soul Realm cultivator, you should have a Pefect Nascent Soul, how did you barely manage to stop my random attack, I even went and limited it's power to the Middle Stage of the Nascent Soul Realm..."
"T-The... Middle Stage... ? Limiting... ?"
The old man looked dishevelled after this revelation, remembering the attack, he simply could not refute it, he wanted to, but he did not dare to !
"Alright, now that you seem to get it, what is going on here ?"
Looking around, Alexander's gaze met with most of the people inside the old man's group, each of them looking down everytime they met with his eyes.
"Grand Elder Yong, is this man stronger than you ?" Ushed a black robed old man near Grand Elder Yong.
"I'm not sure... if he really was limiting his power in that strike just now, then he definitely is ! I could barely stop it after all and it seemed like a casual move from him..."
Remembering the simple attack, Grand Elder Yong felt fear.
"If it really was a casual move and not a secret technique meant to look simple, then we are doomed !"
"Then why not just tell him ? It's better than to die !"
Contemplating the suggestion of his junior brother, Grand Elder Yong nodded his head before saying with his fists cupped.
"Your excellency, I won't lie to you, this is a Sealed World ! We managed to find it a few years back, since then, our Flowing Leaves Sect managed to use it as a training ground to give our disciples some opportunities !"
Alexander raised his brows, his thoughts running wild at such a rare occurence.
'Sealed World ?! In here ?! Even if it's possible for a native of the Lower Realms to make a Sealed World in the middle of space, for it to attract the greed of Upper Realms natives... This is obviously abnormal !'
Sealed Worlds were worlds created using Space Laws, most often than not the creators also used the Dao of Space. Such worlds were rare and commonly used as inheritence grounds, where dying cultivators decided to leave their legacies for the later generations.
While Alexander did not really care about such petty things, he was still curious about it's content.
"So, what did you find, I won't take it but I am wondering what in the Lower Realms is enough to catch an entire sect's attention from the Upper Realms."
"Your excellency, this Sealed World was apparently made by a Dao Fusion Realm Expert ! Unfortunately for us, only juniors at the Peak Stage of the Sky Realm and below can enter !"
After sighing at this situation Grand Elder Yong continued.
"Even with my cultivation at the Peak of the Nascent Soul Realm, just surviving the powerful arrays' onslaught everytime I get too close is more than difficult !"
"As for what we have found, the best treasure we got until now, is a Cloud-Tier Spear, while it did not reach the Supreme Grade, it was still at the peak of the Perfected Grade !"
Artifacts were, like almost every item in this Universe, graded with both tiers and grades, the swords that Alexander gifted inside the Golden Dungeon were Mortal-Tier, their grade either low, middle or high, above the High Grade was the Perfected Grade, above even this was the strongest grade, the Supreme Grade.
As for the different tiers, above the Mortal-Tier was the Spirit-Tier, often just weapons possessing any kind of energy, above this tier was the Profound-Tier, mostly meant for Profound Realm Experts. Then came the Earth-Tier used by Earth Realm Experts, beyond was the Cloud-Tier, using these artifacts one would probably find either Sky Realm or Heavenly Realms Experts.
'Dao Fusion Realm ? Why would a cultivator at this level of strength bother making a Sealed World in the middle of nowhere in the shitty Lower Realms ?'
Alexander was confused by this information, for someone who had not only surpassed the Nascent Soul Realm but also the major realm after called the Dao Heart Realm, calling it eccentric would be an understatement.
'Was he that bored ? Instead on focusing towards the next major realm, trying to form his Saint Embryo, he goes around making a Sealed World here...'
'Even if he did not have the potential to reach the Saint Ebryonic Realm, as a Dao Fusion Realm cultivator, standing at the top of a Tier-5 World is not difficult !'
'I guess I'll go take a look then...'
Before Grand Elder Yong could ask if they could leave, he saw Alexander's figure shoot forward in the direction of the space ripples far behind his group, directly entering the Sealed World.
"What about the arrays ..?"
All Grand Elder Yong could do was wonder why he even bothered doing all that just for someone to simply skip the arrays.
