Walker Of The Blue Sky

Chapter 222: Ch 222: Mission: Rule The World

When Emrys entered the Legacy Ground, he was expecting to appear on an altar or a place where he may have the opportunity to meet the remnant soul of Sage or something like that. After all, the Legacy Ground is where he is supposed to obtain the inheritance of Sage. Generally, this is how everything works in a legacy ground or inheritance site.

Of course, he also expected to go through a test or a trial.

He never expected to directly appear in a huge world. A screen appeared right before his eyes. This screen was similar to the system’s interface but slightly different.

Emrys couldn’t help but guess that Ling Xiaolong may have obtained the idea of making the system from the Primordial Era Civilization or vice versa.

Whatever the case, the screen was right in front of his eyes that informed him that he had entered the First Layer of Sage Legacy Ground. Sage Legacy Ground has a total of three layers.

Well, this is something Emrys was already informed by Radcliffe, so he was not surprised.

The screen also informed Emrys what he was supposed to do.

The moment he entered the First Layer of Sage Legacy Ground, his test had already begun. He was told to become the ruler of this world. The strongest in this world were Supreme Cosmic Apprentices.

By now, Emrys already knew the cultivation stages that come after the Ordinary Cosmic Apprentices.

The Cosmic Cultivation System starts from the First Step to the Twelfth Step. In terms of the Soul Cultivation System, the Twelfth Step Warriors are equivalent to Glowing Gold Star Soul Master, which is also the limit of Emrys’s universe.

After the Twelfth Step comes Ordinary Cosmic Apprentice, Enlightened Cosmic Apprentice, Exalted Cosmic Apprentice, and Supreme Cosmic Apprentice. All of these four stages of Cosmic Apprentice Realm were further divided into three sub-stages; Beginner, Intermediate, and Advanced.

Emrys was only an Advanced Ordinary Cosmic Apprentice, far from the Supreme Cosmic Apprentice. If he wants to rule this world, he needs to become strong first.

The troublesome thing was that this world was virtually designed based on the real world at the time of the Cosmic Cultivation Era.

Fortunately, his cheat was still there. He doesn’t understand the concept of the cheat given to him by Ling Xiaolong, but even in this virtual world, as long as he kills a Cosmic Beast, he can grow stronger.

This was truly magnificent.

It is very obvious Ling Xiaolong wanted Emrys to become stronger as soon as possible, and to make him strong, Ling Xiaolong did everything he could, but within the limit.

Yes, Emrys can grow strong by killing Cosmic Beasts which is a great shortcut to supremacy. But the main point here is that Emrys has to first defeat and kill the beast which in itself is a tough task and a form of training if the beasts are strong.

The same goes for Emrys’s shortcut for his Soul Cultivation Path. He has to first defeat and kill his opponent to devour their soul. He cannot directly devour the souls of people or Soul Beasts.

In other words, Ling Xiaolong was making the growth of Emrys faster and faster, but at the same time, he was also training him, not letting him become incompetent and pathetic.

Coming back to the point, the test was for Emrys to rule this virtual world. If he wants to control this world, he has to first become the strongest and deter all the forces. This is not an easy task, nor is it a task that can be completed in one or two days.

Most importantly, although virtual, this was still a world. Emrys can communicate, exchange, explore, work, eat, and do all the things he can in the real world.

He spent six months obtaining information on powerful forces throughout the world. At the same time, he was exploring unknown relics and sites to obtain treasures just like what he would do in the real world.

Of course, during these six months, he also killed hundreds of Cosmic Beasts, becoming an advanced Enlightened Cosmic Apprentice from an advanced Ordinary Cosmic Apprentice.

Just a month ago, he obtained the long-lost treasure of Star Soul Mansion from the ruin of Star Soul Dynasty.

Star Soul Dynasty used to be a great power said to have several Supreme Cosmic Apprentices, but they were too arrogant and offended many other powerful forces. Those forces formed an alliance and waged war against the Star Soul Dynasty, finally destroying it.

Star Soul Mansion was established by the remnants of the Star Soul Dynasty thousands of years after the dynasty’s destruction. With the passage of time, they again became powerful, but not that much. The strongest in the Star Soul Mansion are only Advanced Enlightened Cosmic Apprentices. There are also rumors that say that the Star Soul Mansion is hiding its strength. Exalted Cosmic Apprentices have already appeared in this force.

Whatever the case, Emrys was not afraid of them. Even though he is just an Advanced Enlightened Cosmic Apprentice, he is confident in defeating a Beginner Exalted Cosmic Apprentice. Even if there is an Intermediate Exalted Cosmic Apprentice, Emrys is confident in facing them and leaving unscathed.

Not long after obtaining the Star Soul Mirror, the most treasured treasure of the former Star Soul Dynasty, he came in contact with Isolde Rain, a beautiful lady who was about to be eaten by a Cosmic Beast.

Emrys saved her life and accidentally revealed the Star Soul Mirror.

She was shocked at first, but then she offered Emrys to come to the Star Soul Mansion with her.

Since Emrys’s task was to control this world, he had to start with weaker forces first. Moreover, he also had confidence in his own strength, so he agreed to go to the Star Soul Mansion. At the same time, he planned to make the Star Soul Mansion submit to him by using the Star Soul Mirror.

No matter how calculative he was, he still made a mistake.

Isolde had already informed the Star Soul Mansion about him using a communication device. When they arrived at the Star Soul Mansion, Emrys was received with a grand gesture that also showed the heartfelt gratitude of the entire Star Soul Mansion.

In the end, the Star Soul Mansion asked for the Star Soul Mirror. They said that they would only take this treasure to their ancestor and show them. Of course, if Emrys is willing, they can also exchange the Star Soul Mirror by paying him resources or treasures of equivalent value.

Emrys thought for a while and agreed to let them borrow the Star Soul Mirror from him. They prepared a guest room for Emrys outside the Star Soul Mansion and told him to wait for a day there.

Emrys waited and waited but no one came to him even after a few days. He understood that the Star Soul Mansion’s intentions had changed. So he went to retrieve the Star Soul Mirror, only to be attacked by a guard.

Isolde appeared in time and stopped the guard, otherwise, the guard would have died right then and there.

Thus followed the current scene where Isolde gave Emrys three treasures—a crystal card, a scroll, and a blade—as compensation for giving the Star Soul Mansion their treasure back.

However, compared to the value of Star Soul Mirror, the value of these treasures was too low. After all, the Star Soul Mirror was a Soulbound Treasure, a treasure higher in grade than the Empyrean Treasure.

Even fifty Empyrean Treasures together cannot be compared with one Soulbound Treasure.

Eh yes, Emrys was shocked to know a secret. Even in the Primordial Era and Cosmic Era, the grades of treasures in all the Cosmic Fields and Vast Expanse of Eternity are the same. They are called Empyrean Treasures, Soulbound Treasures, Heavenly Soul Treasures, Celestial Spirit Treasures, Celestial Destroyer Treasures, Mystery Descent Treasures, and Heavenly Mystery Treasures.

No matter what the Cosmic Field, the names of treasures’s grades are all the same.

Maybe, this is true for the current era as well.

Anyway, Isolde wanted to wrap up this matter by only giving Emrys a single Empyrean Blade, a Cosmic Art, and a Crystal Treasure which held no true value to him in real life.

Among these three treasures, he can only use Cosmic Art in real life. After all, although this world is virtual, everything inside is completely based on reality at the time of the Cosmic Cultivation Era. In other words, all the Cosmic Arts present inside this virtual world is complete and real.

How can Emrys not be angered when a Soulbound Treasure he obtained was being forcefully snatched by the Star Soul Mansion?

He immediately understood that conversation was no longer possible. If he wants to control the Star Soul Mansion, he has to force them to submit to him.

If they don’t submit, Emrys has already decided to completely destroy the arrogant Star Soul Mansion once again. He will make them relive the past when the Star Soul Dynasty was destroyed once again.
