Walking by the Abyss on Thin Ice

Chapter 168 – The Mystery of the Seventh Spirit Realm Shattered

"Is it over?"

Outside the Immortal's Residence, Zuo Songyan, Shuofang Marquis, and others stood up and looked towards the Immortal's Residence.

The lustrous window suddenly shattered, causing everyone to be shocked. Just now, they did not feel any divine power fluctuations outside, nor did they hear any sound!

Only at the moment when the window shattered, they felt an extremely sharp edge!

That edge was not like worldly weather. Beside Shuofang Marquis, Li Muge's heart moved slightly and whispered, "It's sword qi divine power!"

The others did not feel much upon hearing this, only Dong Physician, Wu Tong, and Zuo Songyan were extremely moved.

They all knew that Su Yun had a trick with his sword.

Inside the Immortal's Residence, Ying Ying was extremely nervous, flying back and forth in the rain of lustrous glass, hiding in every corner. If these shattered glass fell on her, she would definitely be cut into pieces as a little book monster.

However, she was not worried about herself, but about Su Yun.

The mirror spirit realm shattered, and Su Yun was afraid that he would be torn into pieces by the shattered spirit realm, with no chance of survival!

At this moment, the falling rain of lustrous glass suddenly stopped in mid-air, as if time had stopped.

Qiu Shuijing and Su Yun suddenly appeared in the Immortal's Residence, and Su Yun hurriedly rushed forward to hold Ying Ying in his arms.

Crash!

The rain of lustrous glass fell, and a large yellow clock appeared above Su Yun's head, blocking the shattered glass.

Ying Ying calmed down, flew out of Su Yun's arms, touched herself all over, and then wanted to touch Su Yun.

Su Yun quickly said, "Ying Ying, you don't need to touch me, I'm fine."

Qiu Shuijing looked up and saw that the lustrous dome and windows of the Immortal's Residence were completely shattered, leaving only the frames, and the wind was blowing everywhere.

"One hundred Qinghong coins." He said to Su Yun.

Su Yun obediently took out the money and said, "Teacher, I made some money selling monster dust before the New Year, so I still have some savings. I am also prepared to pay for this challenge. But can I receive some tuition from you in this battle?"

Ying Ying flew behind him, lifted his clothes, and checked whether he was injured.

Qiu Shuijing took the money bag from his hand, weighed it, and said with a smile, "What did you teach me in this battle? Was it to use your strength to crush people, or to use only one divine power, the power of great strength?"

Su Yun's face turned slightly red, and he pulled his pants up again. Ying Ying was pulling his pants from behind to look inside.

Qiu Shuijing thought for a moment, took out a five-zhu coin and threw it into his arms, saying, "You taught me something. I was only guarding against your clock and didn't expect you to have another divine power with even greater power. I learned something from you, and it's worth a coin."

Su Yun was inexplicably excited, and carefully put the five-zhu coin on the yellow clock, and treasured it in his own spirit realm.

To make someone like Qiu Shuijing admit that he could learn something from their fight was a great honor for him!

"Ying Ying, I really didn't get hurt! Ying Ying..." Su Yun quickly hugged his chest and begged for mercy.

Ying Ying had to give up and said, "I'll go into your spirit realm and take a look. Maybe your spiritual soul is injured!"

Su Yun did not let her enter his spirit realm, so Ying Ying had to give up.

"Di Ping's combat power may be stronger than the simulated combat power I created with the rune array."Qiu Shuijing pondered for a moment and said, "He is an extremely intelligent person. His Five Elements Mixed Yuan Gong should actually be called Six Elements Mixed Yuan Gong. His technique combines my Honglu Shanbian and the remnants of the Chao Tian Que, creating a unified power. In terms of power, I am not as good as you at the same level. But compared to him, you may not necessarily have the advantage."

Su Yun felt a chill in his heart.

Qiu Shuijing continued, "However, you have not opened all the caves of the Seventh Spiritual Realm, so you still have a chance to break through on the last day and open all the other caves to surpass him in power!"

Su Yun frowned and shook his head. "Teacher, I've tried. With my current power, I can only open the forty-sixth cave."

Opening more caves required more power, and opening the forty-sixth cave was already his limit. He had opened forty-five caves on his way to the Shuofang Academy, and they were all very easy to open. His magical powers were strong, his attacks were strong, and he could even break through all six spiritual realms in one go and directly open the Seventh Spiritual Realm!

However, on his way to the Immortal's Residence in the Tianfang Tower, he could only open the forty-sixth cave, and he tried many methods but could not open the forty-seventh cave.

Qiu Shuijing smiled slightly and pointed out, "Then do you think that my opening of the seventy-second cave means that my power in the Spiritual Realm is far superior to yours?"

Su Yun was stunned and suddenly realized, "Yes! In the same realm, your power is far inferior to mine, which means that there must be a technique to open other caves, and it is not just brute force!"

"Inferior power..."

Qiu Shuijing was somewhat unhappy to hear this, but he didn't argue with him. After all, what Su Yun said was true. He said, "There is indeed a way. You have not defeated Di Ping, so you are not my disciple yet. Therefore, I will charge you for teaching. You just said that you sold some robbery dust monsters and saved some money?"

Su Yun hesitated for a moment and said cautiously, "But now I don't have much left. There are still three children in my family to take care of, and my second brother is not married yet..."

...

"To open more caves, you need strong power. But I have calculated that even if you achieve the level of an immortal, it is impossible to open all seventy-two caves. Because the power required for the later caves is simply too much!"

Qiu Shuijing's eyes were extremely bright as he said, "Later, when I studied overseas and came to Dongyu, I encountered a technique called the Zhou Tian Chen Lie Guan Xiang Pian. There are also techniques like the Zhou Tian Xing Xiu Xing Dou in Yuan Shuo, but the difference between this technique and the Yuan Shuo technique is the position of the Zhou Tian Chen Lie."

He explained in detail that the Zhou Tian Xing Xiu Xing Dou in Yuan Shuo calculated the position of the stars and constellations in the universe based on the world where people were located.

However, the spiritualists in overseas countries like Dongyu discovered that the world they were in was not the center of the universe, but the sun was.

So these spiritualists recalculated the position of the stars and constellations based on the sun, correcting many errors in traditional knowledge.

"After learning the Zhou Tian Chen Lie Guan Xiang Pian, I suddenly realized my blind spot in knowledge."

Qiu Shuijing looked at Su Yun and Ying Ying and smiled, "Do you know what this blind spot is?"

Ying Ying was also fascinated and asked quickly, "What is it?"

Qiu Shuijing shook his head and said, "Ying Ying, don't ask, you need to think. Just wanting to know the answer is like reading books blindly, not your own knowledge."

Su Yun suddenly had a flash of insight and smiled, "I know."Ying Ying thought for a moment and smiled, "I understand now. The answer is simple. Don't treat your own spiritual energy as the center of the seventy-two fragments of the Seventh Realm."

Su Yun nodded, "If you treat yourself as the center and look at the seventy-two Heavenly Realms, you are not on the same level. But if you find the center of the Seventh Realm, you can unify the seventy-two Heavenly Realms and make the most of the natural energy they bring."

Qiu Shuijing smiled, "That's why I can open the seventy-two Heavenly Realms. Once I figured this out, I learned the celestial array of the overseas people and the calculation method. Finally, I calculated the center of the seventy-two Heavenly Realms."

He was about to speak when Su Yun took out all the Qinghong coins he had on him and pushed them in front of him, "Teacher, please teach me the calculation method!"

Qiu Shuijing calmly put the money into his pocket and explained the method of calculating the celestial array he had created based on his own celestial array. Ying Ying immediately brought paper and pen and recorded it quickly, thinking to herself, "Qiu Tai often makes money too fast. If I sell all the knowledge I know, won't I become a rich woman?"

Qiu Shuijing finished explaining the celestial array and said, "Take your time to comprehend it. If you don't understand, ask me. If you don't have money, you can owe me."

Su Yun pondered while Ying Ying entered his spiritual realm and wrote and drew with him, constantly calculating.

Qiu Shuijing looked at the two of them and secretly praised, "So it was Ying Ying who taught him. No wonder he hasn't come to see me for so long. What Ying Ying taught him has saved me a lot of time."

He was about to get up and see Zuo Songyan and the others when Su Yun suddenly opened his eyes and laughed, "I figured it out!"

Su Yun jumped up and laughed, "I figured out what the center of the seventy-two Heavenly Realms is!"

Qiu Shuijing's face changed slightly, and he quickly stopped and turned around, asking urgently, "Do you know why the center of the seventy-two Heavenly Realms was formed?"

Su Yun smiled and reached out his hand.

Qiu Shuijing snorted and took out a bag of money from his pocket, the same Qinghong coins that Su Yun had just given him.

Su Yun took the Qinghong coins and said with a smile, "This center is actually the point where the Seventh Realm was shattered! A powerful force struck this point, causing the Seventh Realm to shatter! In other words..."

Qiu Shuijing was stunned and repeated his words, "In other words?"

Su Yun looked at him and Qiu Shuijing took out another bag of money from his pocket.

Ying Ying couldn't help but remind him, "Qiu Tai often, you said earlier, don't ask, think! Why are you still asking? You've earned the money so hard, and now you're giving it back! If you keep asking, you might even have to pay for repairing the Immortal's Residence yourself!"

Qiu Shuijing's face turned slightly red and he secretly felt ashamed.

When he studied abroad, he had thought a lot about the Seventh Realm and the seventy-two Heavenly Realms, and had explored and paid countless efforts, but still left behind several unsolvable problems.

What Su Yun just said was the solution to these problems, so he couldn't help but lose his composure.

"In other words, the Seventh Realm is different from the other six realms. This Seventh Realm has a physical body."

Su Yun took the money and revealed his guess, "I suspect that the other six realms are actually projections of the Seventh Realm. In other words, the natural energy we draw from the Heavenly Realms is actually from the Seventh Realm."

He concentrated and suddenly, his spiritual realm appeared.Su Yun's spirit and physical body were integrated, walking around in the spirit world. With a wave of his hand, seventy-two simulacra of the heavenly realms appeared in the sky.

Using the rune calculation method taught by Qiu Shuijing, Su Yun constantly calculated and deduced the center of the seventy-two heavenly realms.

"If we modify the center of the seventy-two heavenly realms and use the celestial array calculation method that the teacher just mentioned to calculate the stars in the celestial sphere..."

He muttered to himself, connecting the seventy-two heavenly realms to the center and visualizing the stars in the celestial sphere to arrange them according to the calculated positions.

After a while, Su Yun clapped his hands and said with a smile, "If the sun is not the center of the universe and the Seventh Spirit Realm is, then the celestial sphere should be arranged like this. Where should we be in this star chart?"

He eagerly looked at the star chart he had drawn, trying to find the position of their world, but he had never learned about this.

Suddenly, a rough finger pointed to a position on the star chart and said in a deep voice, "We are here."

Su Yun's heart trembled and he quickly looked over, only to see Zuo Songyan in his spirit world, staring at the redesigned star chart with a solemn expression.

Zuo Songyan withdrew his finger and suddenly Dr. Dong walked over, pointing to the position Zuo Songyan had pointed to and said, "This is Tian Shi Yuan, a part of the seventy-two heavenly realms. Am I right?"

He looked at Su Yun with eager eyes. "You also came from here, so you can draw this star chart, right?"

Su Yun was a little confused.

Suddenly, the voice of the Shuo Fang Marquis came, hoarse. "The fallen dragon of Tian Shi Yuan, the true dragon, fell from the heavenly pillar of the star chart, the star of the Big Dipper. Su Shangshi, am I right?"
