Chapter 477: Chapter 359 Heaven Venerable Envoy_1
```
The question from Blunt Empty Venerable caught Li Cheng by surprise, "Did my mentor seek out Uncle Master before he left?"
"Mmhmm, he said his future was likely beyond the domain, took a cup of tea, and left," Blunt Empty Venerable sighed.
Li Cheng heaved a sigh inwardly, "No one knows if there are great secrets hidden beyond the domain, maybe there are. You don't also plan to go, do you, Uncle Master?"
Blunt Empty Venerable shook his head repeatedly, "With my initial entry into the Divine Emperor's Realm of cultivation... I mean, I have no interest in what lies beyond the domain, it is probably the Border Wilderness!"
Li Cheng smiled, understanding that Blunt Empty Venerable's initial mention of cultivation was out of concern for his mentor, so he quickly corrected himself.
After all, his mentor was only at the Complete Divine Venerable Realm, not yet a Divine Emperor, so such a statement would be inappropriate.
However, Blunt Empty Venerable certainly didn't know that his mentor was once the Space-Time Divine Ancestor!
This was what his father had told him, having been the Space-Time Divine Ancestor. Even if there were not many memories left from that life, there would still be self-preservation methods upon going beyond the domain.
Seeing Li Cheng lost in thought, Blunt Empty Venerable quickly changed the subject, "I feel like you've already begun transforming your Divine Origin, a process which almost solely requires waiting. How much longer do you need?"
"Over four hundred years, so I thought I'd take this time to wander around and see the Divine Realm," Li Cheng said with a smile, sipping his tea.
Actually, he wanted to travel around and accept disciples, of course. Still, it was appropriate to explore the sights of the Divine Realm.
The smile on Blunt Empty Venerable's face thickened a bit, "They say it is better to travel ten thousand miles than to read ten thousand books. Wandering the world is indeed very good!"
Li Cheng didn't explain, perhaps Blunt Empty Venerable thought he wanted to roam everywhere leisurely. There was no need to clarify this.
"By the way, in recent years the Divine Realm has begun to grow, and it's said that new territories have appeared in many places, some of which seem to harbor great opportunities. Our Land Puppet Mansion has also encountered a very strange place; how about exploring it together?" Blunt Empty Venerable suggested.
"What's so strange about it?" Li Cheng asked, curious.
Blunt Empty Venerable waved his hand, and the world around him transformed into one where clouds and fog churned, "From the outside, it seems to be a mountain range shrouded in cloud and mist. What's eerie is that Divine Sense cannot penetrate it, and the closer one gets to the mountain range, the stronger the gravity!"
"The most mysterious part is a type of crystal stone it produces!"
Saying this, Blunt Empty Venerable took out a golden crystal stone and handed it to Li Cheng.
Li Cheng took it and a look of astonishment appeared in his eyes. This crystal stone, the size of a fingertip, actually weighed hundreds of millions of pounds and contained a rich essence of the Earth Rules!
"Law Crystal Stone?" Li Cheng looked at Blunt Empty Venerable with puzzlement and then said, "Such crystals have never appeared in the Divine Realm before, have they?"
Blunt Empty Venerable nodded, "Correct, I suspect these were condensed after the evolution of the Divine Realm. Try refining it!"
Li Cheng tried refining the stone and felt tens of thousands of Earth Rules surge out, settling in his mind as though he could easily comprehend them.
Li Cheng's Earth Rules had long been complete; these were rules he had already understood, so he could not determine how long it would take to comprehend these rules under normal conditions.
But these rules, taking residence in his mind, were akin to absorbing the Divine Qi from a Divine Stone; once refined, they became his own Divine Power.
"The emergence of such crystal stones means understanding laws has become countless times easier. In the future, the number of powerhouses in the Divine Emperor's Realm will increase greatly!" Li Cheng stated.
Blunt Empty Venerable nodded, "Exactly so. Various types of Law Crystal Stones have also appeared, which indicates rapid growth in the Divine Realm. Now everyone suspects there may be even more precious treasures within this mountain range. Outside it, a large number of powerful beings have gathered, trying to enter."
"Surely many people have gone in to explore, right? Have they found anything?" Li Cheng asked.
Blunt Empty Venerable shrugged, "The gravity inside is a major problem. When I had yet to break through, I went in to take a look but couldn't reach the core. Now that my cultivation has broken through, I want to try again."
"You are no weaker than me, so I invite you to join me."
Li Cheng smiled. To be honest, he had lost much interest in treasures of heaven and earth by now, as the number of times of enlightenment counted the most.
After pondering for a few seconds, Li Cheng said, "Since this place can give birth to Law Crystal Stones, I think it's better not to disturb it."
Such places were blessings for the Divine Realm. The more crystals that emerged, the more people would fully comprehend the laws, and more would step into the Divine Emperor's Realm.
"It's not necessarily destruction, investigating it to remove potential dangers is also good. But after your words, I've lost some interest too. Letting it develop seems nice," Blunt Empty Venerable remarked with a laugh.
With the cultivations of Li Cheng and Blunt Empty Venerable, their vision had expanded to the scope of the entire Divine Realm.
Li Cheng stayed in Mansion Venerable City for a few days before bidding farewell to Blunt Empty Venerable and heading to No Return City.
After paying three hundred Divine Stones to enter No Return City, Li Cheng went straight to the entrance of the Emperor's Perishing No Return Domain; the candidate for disciple was there.
"The last time in the Emperor's Perishing No Return Domain, I used the disciple detection function to guide me to the entrance. The disciple detected then should be him. After so many years, he's still here..." Li Cheng muttered.
In front of the entrance, sparse figures sat cross-legged, just as Li Cheng had when he first came here. There were always people waiting for treasures to fly out of the Emperor's Perishing No Return Domain.
After taking a few steps, Li Cheng noticed something was off.
The thousand or so people seemed to be sitting in meditation on their own, but in reality, they were all covertly paying attention to one young man.
And that young man was his target!
"It seems that the lad has acquired some treasure that has made everyone covet it. However, fighting is not permitted within No Return City, including this entrance area, so everyone is waiting," Li Cheng realized, thinking to himself.
