Lin Xuankong easily handles tasks assigned to the Divine Mountain Warriors. Wu Tianguan, a Grand Celestial Official, informs Lin Xuankong and the Li family descendants about a new opportunity: exploring recently discovered primitive worlds through World Passages. She hints that their diligence and Ma Tianguan's favor could lead to reduced punishment or even full atonement for past offenses, especially for the Li family members, as she acknowledges a past debt to their ancestors.

In the chaos of today, good fortune has unexpectedly struck. A brawl led to punishment, but it also resulted in encountering an old acquaintance of the Li Family’s elder!

Tsk tsk, but don’t worry, Brother Lin. Since you entered this Seven Cities Construction Hall with us three, it seems we have some fate together!

In the future, within this Construction Hall, no matter what happens, if the three of us can watch out for you or lend you a hand, we definitely will!"

Hearing this, Lin Xuankong couldn’t help but take another look at the three from the Li Family. Apart from the chubby-faced, small-eyed Li Changming, the elder Li Changsheng and Li Changshou both gave a slight nod, smiling at him.

He couldn’t help but think: these three from the Li Family appear to have decent personalities, and they seem to be inclined to help others. They haven’t been too arrogant despite their connection with Wu Tianguan, the Grand Celestial Official of the Seven Cities Construction Hall!

After some thought, Lin Xuankong asked, "There’s something I’m not clear about, might I consult the three of you?"

The chubby-faced, small-eyed Li Changming immediately responded, "What’s unclear? Just ask me!"

Beside him, Li Changshou and Li Changsheng exchanged glances and shook their heads discreetly, clearly somewhat helpless towards their over-familiar, boasting cousin Li Changming!

Lin Xuankong asked, "Wu Tianguan just mentioned something about newly discovered Little Worlds and the World Passages.

To my knowledge, cultivators who ascend to the Supreme Origin Realm, even those who have cultivated to the Great Success or Venerable Realm, cannot communicate with the Little Worlds below. Even those who have reached the peak Saint Monarch Realm in the Supreme Origin Realm can at most project a trace amount of power to the Little Worlds below. So why did Wu Tianguan say that after some years, Divine Mountain Warriors will be sent to explore those three newly discovered Little Worlds?

Could it be that Wu Tianguan and the others have a way to send Divine Mountain Warriors from the Supreme Origin Realm down to the Little Worlds? This is something that even the strongest at the peak of the Saint Monarch Level can’t achieve!"

The three from the Li Family paused at Lin Xuankong’s words and then all started to scrutinize Lin Xuankong,

until Lin Xuankong felt a sense of doubt, the chubby-faced, small-eyed Li Changming then shook his head, saying, "It seems Brother Lin is not a cultivator from our East Ming Divine Continent; or perhaps Brother Lin ascended from a Little World below and isn’t aware of the Candle Dragon Race’s powers?"

Lin Xuankong nodded, "Indeed, Xuankong is a cultivator who ascended from a Little World below, and I don’t know much about the East Ming Divine Continent and the Candle Dragon Race!"

The chubby-faced, small-eyed Li Changming nodded and said, "So it turns out you’re a cultivator who ascended from a Little World below, no wonder!"

After a pause, he continued, "If it were other Demon Races or cultivators of the Thousand Illusion Celestial Demon Race or Ten Thousand Laws Celestial Demon Race, naturally they couldn’t send people to explore the Little Worlds below. Even Saint Monarch Level cultivators can’t cross world barriers!

The Candle Dragon Race indeed possesses a special talent that allows the separated soul of a practitioner to penetrate world barriers within a century, descending into lower Little Worlds, to either possess or seize control of weaker life forms there!"

Lin Xuannong couldn’t help but be surprised, "The Candle Dragon Race possesses such a magical talent?"

The chubby-faced, small-eyed Li Changming nodded, "Naturally, otherwise why is it that in the East Ming Divine Continent, where strong practitioners from various clans thrive, only the Candle Dragon Race has become the most powerful Demon Race clan, even capable of uniting forces with other Demon Races and the Human Race to stand against the Thousand Illusion Celestial Demon Race and Ten Thousand Laws Celestial Demon Race! Without the Candle Dragon Race, the East Ming Divine Continent would probably already be dominated by either the Thousand Illusion Celestial Demon Race or the Ten Thousand Laws Celestial Demon Race!

However, even though the Candle Dragon Race possesses such a talent, which expends resources to allow the separated soul to cross the world barrier and attach to a creature in a Little World below, they are restricted by this talent and cannot separate their own souls to achieve the same! This can be seen as both a blessing and a curse; due to this talent, the Candle Dragon Race has always preferred to cooperate with other clan cultivators rather than rule or dominate alone!

Moreover, because of this extraordinary talent, the cultivators of the Candle Dragon Race, even at the Saint Monarch Realm, cannot, like the Saint Monarch Level powerhouses of the Thousand Illusion Celestial Demon Race or Ten Thousand Laws Celestial Demon Race, forcibly project a trace of power to a Little World below, easily wreaking havoc and sweeping through Little Worlds below to capture the World Origin of those Little Worlds! So, in all things, there are both advantages and disadvantages!"

Hearing all this, Lin Xuankong finally had some understanding of the Candle Dragon Race.

The chubby-faced, small-eyed Li Changming, however, had opened his mouth wide, speaking non-stop, "And another point, don’t assume being selected to explore the Little World’s task guarantees success or that you’ll obtain a wealth of information on the Little World, let alone mean you’ll acquire some World Origin from the Little World...

The separated soul of the Candle Dragon Race’s practitioner is too fine and possesses no real power or strength, and it’s easily attached to too weak a life form. If unfortunate, the Divine Mountain Warrior’s soul attached during the mission could end up on a creature near death, which might cause the dispersed soul to shatter!

If such a situation occurs, and the practitioner’s soul cannot return to the Supreme Origin Realm, it would result in soul damage! This separation and soul damage could lead to a practitioner being unable to fully recover for millions, or even tens of millions of years, and their cultivation might not progress for millions of years!

So, it’s still that reasoning; with great benefits come potentially great risks!"

Listening to all this, Lin Xuankong couldn’t help but feel his heart skip a beat,

He wasn’t worried about being chosen for the Little World exploration and facing potential soul damage, as there might be vast benefits in this task, and many cultivators would fiercely compete for it. He, being a newcomer and freshly ascended Divine Mountain Warrior from a Little World below, with no roots or connections, would likely have little chance of obtaining such a task!

The reason for his sudden jolt was because of the mention of the World Origin of the Little World by the chubby-faced, small-eyed Li Changming...

This information was Lin Xuankong’s first exposure to the notion of Little World Origin since his ascension to the Supreme Origin Realm, and the first time hearing about ways to obtain Little World Origin!

Lin Xuankong is now at the Initial Tier Perfection Realm, at the bottleneck of advancing to the Early-Stage Minor Success Celestial Immortal Realm. He already possesses some World Origin from the Little Worlds within the Golden Dragon Immortal Realm, but what he lacks is the World Origin from other Little Worlds!

Once he acquires some World Origins from other Little Worlds, he can rapidly advance his cultivation to the Early-Stage Minor Success Celestial Immortal Realm, then once again leverage the magical talent in his Vigorous in Old Age Life Plate and his diligent cultivation to rapidly elevate his cultivation, which was previously at a bottleneck!

But the dangers associated with the exploration tasks of other Little Worlds... soul damage is no trivial matter. He wonders if the Celestial Demon Blood Fruit could heal the soul damage of a cultivator at the Celestial Immortal Realm?

Lin Xuankong started calculating these matters in his heart.
