The Starry Sky Saber Sect had been established and then overcrowded with people when it had started recruiting disciples. However, Di Jiu was not particularly satisfied. He was wondering how he could allow the cultivators from the Four Major Immortal Continents, especially the Square Immortal Continent, to directly ascend to the Great Ultimate Realm and not to the Dao World. This was because, if his friends and brothers were to ascend, they would basically ascend from the Four Major Immortal Continents.
The Dao World was too remote and far from the Beyond of Heaven and Earth. Furthermore, in Di Jiu’s opinion, the place where the Beyond of Heaven and Earth was located was the perfect place for Daoists. Not only were there numerous planes around the Beyond of Heaven and Earth, but there were also places where the Creation War had occurred a few times.
However, Di Jiu knew that, given his current ability, it would most likely be hard to do that.
Regardless of what Di Jiu was worried about, the establishment of the Starry Sky Saber Sect was a major event for the Great Ultimate Realm at present. To everyone’s surprise, Moon Traverse Divine Hall Master Ren Jisha had dissolved the sect and brought his only son, Ren He, to join the Starry Sky Saber Sect. He had not brought any other cultivators of the Moon Traverse Divine Hall.
Even though Di Jiu had told Ren Jisha that he could bring the entire Moon Traverse Divine Hall to join the Starry Sky Saber Sect so that the Moon Traverse Divine Hall could become the peak of the Starry Sky Saber Sect, Ren Jisha had not done that.
Naturally, Di Jiu knew why Ren Jisha had not done that and was very satisfied. The Starry Sky Saber Sect had just been established, while the Moon Traverse Divine Hall had been ingrained in the Great Ultimate Realm. If the Starry Sky Saber Sect made the entire Moon Traverse Divine Hall join it, the Starry Sky Saber Sect would very likely be dominated by the Moon Traverse Divine Hall.
Even though Di Jiu knew this would never happen, he was still satisfied with Ren Jisha’s attitude, as this showed that Ren Jisha had decided to follow him.
Although Ren Jisha’s cultivation technique had been formed long ago, because he had yet to reach Dao Integration, Di Jiu still passed down his Saber Dao divine power to him.
When he was not in the Starry Sky Saber Sect, Ren Jisha would be the person in charge. Therefore, he had to know about the Saber Dao divine power, right?

The Supreme Bei Celestial Ocean had been illustrious in the vast universe millions of years ago. Whenever the Supreme Bei Celestial Ocean was mentioned, almost everyone knew about it and feared it.
This was simply because there were too many third-step experts in the Supreme Bei Celestial Ocean. Nearly all of them had gained insight into the true Dao runes of the Heavenly Dao and were third-step almighties.
The Supreme Bei Celestial Ocean was so famous because it used to be the most powerful realm at the edge of the Beyond of Heaven and Earth.
In the past, the realm nearest to the Beyond of Heaven and Earth had not been one of the current twelve realms, but the Heaven Earth Realm. The Heaven Earth Realm had abundant Chaotic Heaven Earth Qi that cultivators yearned for day and night. Because of the Heaven Earth Qi, the Heaven Earth Realm used to be the most flourishing and vigorous place. Cultivating in the Heaven Earth Realm was efficient. With the help of the Heaven Earth Qi, one could not only have faster comprehension and cultivation, but one’s foundation also became more solid.
Back then, the Xun Family, a very huge cultivation family, had lived in the Heaven Earth Realm. Once, the most genius disciple of the Xun Family, Xun Huang, and the Supreme Bei Celestial Ocean’s disciple, Bei Guyan, had put themselves to the test in the Heaven Earth Realm. Thanks to their luck, they had actually found a Heaven Earth Pearl.
At the time, Xun Huang had found the Heaven Earth Pearl and Bei Guyan had obtained the Heaven Earth Tablet and some other things. Bei Guyan had wanted to trade something for Xun Huang’s Heaven Earth Pearl, but Xun Huang had naturally been unwilling. To his surprise, Bei Guyan had plotted against him. After killing Xun Huang, Bei Guyan had left with the Heaven Earth Pearl.
Xun Huang was the top genius of the Xun Family, so he naturally attracted attention at all times. Hence, when Bei Guyan had killed Xun Huang, the Xun Family had found out. The Xun Family had immediately sealed the entire Heaven Earth Realm to capture Bei Yangu.
Bei Yangu did not have a small background. He came from the Supreme Bei Celestial Ocean and was also a famous child from that place. After realizing he had been confined in the Heaven Earth Realm, he had immediately sent out an SOS.
Then, the Bei Family of the Supreme Bei Celestial Ocean had dispatched many third-step experts. When these experts had arrived in the Heaven Earth Realm, they’d flooded the place with blood. This was not all. The Heaven Earth Realm had been refined by an expert of the Bei Family into a top-notch Quintessential World. If such a Quintessential World was upgraded, it could very easily advance into a Five-Element World.
From then on, everyone had known that the Supreme Bei Celestial Ocean’s Bei Family was vicious and nobody had dared to provoke them.
However, the Bei Family had faced internal dissensions because of that. Bei Yangu, whom the Bei Family had dispatched many experts to save, had not agreed with the Bei Family’s suggestion to hand over the Heaven Earth Pearl. Instead, he had fled from the Bei Family with the Heaven Earth Pearl. Apart from that, rumor had it that Bei Yangu had even betrayed the ancestors and disregarded his surname. He had changed his name to Xuanhuang Guyan.
This had infuriated the Supreme Bei Celestial Ocean’s Bei Family. At the time, the Bei Family’s Patriarch, Bei Qianren, had led a group of experts from the family to capture Bei Yangu.
In the beginning, Bei Yangu had escaped. They hadn’t expected that, in less than a thousand years, Bei Yangu would kill them instead. The Bei Family experts chasing after him were all killed without an exception, including Bei Qianren.
Due to this battle, the Bei Family had suffered great damage. Later on, it was said that the Bei Family chose to move the Supreme Bei Celestial Ocean instead. Through unknown means, the Bei Family was not swept into the Creation War.
Dozens of experts were currently seated in the huge conference hall of the Supreme Bei Celestial Ocean’s Bei Family. If experts like Di Jiu or Dao Lord Po Xu came in, they would definitely see them. The dozens of experts seated there were mostly third-step experts. The lowest cultivation level was that of a mid-stage Dao Integration cultivator.
A slightly-tanned, middle-aged man was sitting in the highest seat. He was called Bei Jianchou and he was the current Family Head of the Bei Family.
The atmosphere in the guest hall seemed to be heavy before a long-bearded old man interrupted the silence. “Family Head, fellow Elders of the Bei Family, Bei Jie’s murder outside is no small matter. After that battle, the Bei Family suffered great damage. To this day, no third-step experts have gone out. Bei Jie went out to look for the chance to attain the third step.
“If any other disciple of the Bei Family had perished outside, we would have forgotten about it. However, Bei Jie is different. Not only is he Grand Elder Bei Qianbiao’s direct descendant, but the Heaven Earth Realm is also in his hands. Besides, Bei Jie went out with our permission.”
The long-bearded old man then stopped. However, everyone knew what he meant. Bei Jie was different from the other disciples of the Bei Family. More importantly, Patriarch Bei Qianbiao had refined the Heaven Earth Realm, which was also in Bei Jie’s hands. The Heaven Earth Realm was one of the treasures of the Bei Family, so it absolutely couldn’t be left in the hands of other people.
Bei Jianchou slowly said, “Elder Yiyu is right. The Bei Family definitely cannot sit by and watch. Elder Yiyu, take along Yifei, Ping, and Ku to investigate this. The Heaven Earth Realm is no trivial matter. It cannot land into the hands of someone else.”
“Yes, I will definitely bring the Heaven Earth Realm back. As long as Bei Jie’s physical body is still present, I will definitely bring it back.” Without hesitation, the long-bearded old man stepped forward and spoke up, sounding firm.
Bei Jianchou nodded. “The few of you should be enough. Based on what I know, after the two Creation Wars, there have been no foreign experts. Even if there are third-step experts, they are only recent third-step experts, which is not surprising. The Bei Family has avoided the Creation War twice. There won’t be a third Creation War today. The Bei Family is going to go out, so we cannot stay in this small place. Yiyu, the three of you will go first. After I finish making arrangements, the Bei Family will very soon return to the Five-Element Universe. We are indispensable there.”
