Walker Of The Blue Sky

Chapter 95: Ch 95: Zone Zero of the Absolute Void

Emrys didn’t find the names Ye Yun and Mu Bailing strange. The Infinite Soul Star was filled with people with all sorts of names. Not to mention, before his transmigration, he was an ordinary man in a different world that also had diverse names and cultures.

"So... Do you know what this Mysterious Sky Fruit is?" Emrys asked, deciding to start with the most immediate question on his mind. He had many things he wanted to know, but he felt like asking about this fruit first. After all, he could tell that Ye Yun’s group was also after the Mysterious Sky Fruit.

"You don’t know?" Ye Yun, Mu Bailing, and Jing Jun raised their eyebrows in surprise. They didn’t expect someone who could enter the Mysterious Sky Valley to be unaware of the Mysterious Sky Fruit.

"I don’t know," Emrys replied honestly, shaking his head.

Ye Yun and the others were surprised but didn’t mind explaining a few things. Ye Yun began, "Since you entered this spatial zone, you must be here to find a way to walk down the path of Cosmic Cultivation, right?"

Emrys was about to shake his head and explain that he was not, that he had just been thrown here by Elysia Nightshade, but before he could, Ye Yun continued, "Then you must know that there are several ways we could start cultivating the Cosmic Ways in this space. The Mysterious Sky Fruit is one of them."

Emrys was taken aback. Not only was this his first time learning about the Cosmic Cultivation Path, but he was also surprised to discover that there were several ways to start walking this path inside this space.

Inside this space!

Those three words caught Emrys’s attention. Ye Yun’s meaning was clear. While there are several ways to start cultivating the Cosmic Ways, this path of cultivation could only be undertaken within this space, not elsewhere.

But why?

Several more questions flashed through Emrys’s mind. He wanted to understand the nature of this space and why Cosmic Cultivation was exclusive to it. Why were there several methods? What made the Mysterious Sky Fruit so significant? Emrys’s curiosity grew, and he knew he needed more answers.

Ye Yun, unaware of Emrys’s thoughts, continued, "As you might already know, this space is a fragment of an ancient world hovering in Zone Zero of the Absolute Void. It’s a remnant of ancient times, the only place where Cosmic Cultivation is still possible. It is also the only place where beginning the Cosmic Cultivation is possible. There is no way for anyone to walk the path of Cosmic Cultivation in the outside world. It might be because this shattered world is a fragment left behind by an era when Cosmic Cultivation was still possible."

"It is said that back then, when the sky of this world shattered, a drop from the essence of the original world’s sky dripped into this valley, which later grew into a tree called the Mysterious Sky Tree. The Mysterious Sky Fruit is said to contain a trace of the essence of the original world when this fragmented world was whole. It can immediately bring a person to at least the third step of Cosmic Cultivation. As long as we can take all twelve steps, we can truly start cultivating the Cosmic Ways."

"But you don’t have to worry. You’ve already taken the first five steps, after all. I’m just surprised at how quickly you’ve progressed, reaching the fifth step in such a short period. After all, it hasn’t even been ten days since we entered this space."

Zone Zero of Absolute Void?

Ancient World’s Fragment?

Essence of the Origin World’s Sky?

Twelve Steps before truly starting to cultivate the Cosmic Cultivation System!

Ye Yun gave Emrys too much information this time. He was stunned. The information about this world fragment, the Mysterious Sky Tree, and the steps of Cosmic Cultivation was overwhelming.

Moreover, he hadn’t known any of this before, yet he had somehow progressed five steps already. How was this possible? And more importantly, what did these steps entail?

"Five steps?" Emrys finally asked, trying to make sense of it all. "What do you mean by that?"

Ye Yun looked at him, puzzled. "You mean you don’t know? Why are you joking? You have clearly taken the first five steps. How can you still not know these basic things? These are facts explained by our masters and seniors before entering this space. Have you forgotten already?"

He was surprised at how ignorant Emrys was behaving.

Mu Bailing pulled the corner of his clothes and gestured for him to not speak carelessly. Then she took a step forward and explained, "The twelve steps Ye Yun just talked about are the foundational steps to harness the Cosmic Energy from the void around us. As you know, we cultivators have to first refine our bodies and then build our foundation to finally extract qi from the air and introduce them into our bodies. The body Refinement Stage and Foundation Building Stage are two basic steps we must take before introducing the qi into our body. Only then can we officially start our cultivation."

"Just like that, the first twelve steps are basic foundational steps we must take before introducing Cosmic Energy into our bodies. Otherwise, our body will explode. Each step represents a level of attunement we accumulate over time. The first five steps are the most difficult and crucial. Since you have already taken the first five steps, it means you have already attuned yourself to a significant degree."

Refining bodies, building foundation, introducing qi into the body?

Body Refinement Stage, Foundation Building Stage?

These were all foreign terms for Emrys.

The more Mu Bailing talked, the more confused Emrys became. Being confused doesn’t mean he was unable to understand a single thing.

No!

He did understand many things, but everything added to more layers of confusion in his heart.

Emrys’s mind raced.

When did he take the first five steps?

Could this have something to do with the strange experiences he’d had since arriving here? The mysterious sea, the blood chains, the changes in his soul... Could these have propelled him through the foundational steps of Cosmic Cultivation without him even realizing it?

No!

Emrys immediately shook his head. He knew deep down his heart that this was not it.

Suddenly, he thought of the star patterns in his eyes.
