A Regressor’s Tale of Cultivation

At that very moment, I see a massive explosion erupting in the distant galaxy cluster.

Everything caught in the blast turns into silver-white light and is absorbed into the core of the explosion.

The gaze of the Sword Spear Heavenly Lord, who has annihilated an entire galaxy cluster in an instant and returned (歸依) it to her, locks onto me.

Shiver!

I immediately retrieve Hong Fan from my internal world.

”Hong Fan! Go to the Head Realm and bring back the Golden Divine Heavenly Thunder Sect! If it’s too dangerous as a Sacred Vessel, find someone in the Integration stage to act in your stead! Hurry! Just go for now!”

Before Hong Fan can say anything, I grab his shoulder with all my strength and hurl him far away.

Kugwagwagwang!

Hong Fan tears through the dimensional veil of the Astral Realm and flies beyond the Interdimensional Void towards the Head Realm.

Just then,

Chwararararak!

”...!”

I see the dimension moving before my eyes.

’This is...a dimensional veil...?’

It is a [band].

The bizarre ’band’ formed from a dimensional veil semi-transparently allows the starlight of the universe to pass through.

Though I call it a ’band,’ its width is vast enough to encompass six entire stellar systems, and its length stretches across the entire universe.

’This is...!’

Just when I notice this.

Paaaatt!

Silver-white light gleams through the ’band’, and the Sword Spear Heavenly Lord appears before me.

I recognize the identity of that ’band’.

’That’s a winged garment!?’

The Sword Spear Heavenly Lord’s semi-transparent winged garment, made of a dimensional veil, has teleported her right before my eyes.

A fleeting instant.

From within that gap, the Sword Spear Heavenly Lord extends a silver-white sword towards me.

It is Sword-Guided Star Rain.

That Sword-Guided Star Rain is imbued with prophecy. If I am struck, I will be impaled by the sword and pinned against the surface of the fixed star behind me, unable to escape.

’I can’t let that happen!’

Sword-Guided Star Rain is fast.

Within a fleeting moment, it flies towards me at a speed surpassing light and reaches my chest in an instant.

Kiiiiiiing!

However, the Pure-White Three Great Ultimates turns.

The Triple Divinity dwelling within it aids me.

’I can see it.’

A fleeting moment.

I move just barely faster than the Sword Spear Heavenly Lord’s Sword-Guided Star Rain and sever my own neck.

Shukwang!

Once again, I use Heavenly Escape through suicide, escaping the grasp of the Sword Spear Heavenly Lord once more.

Puhwak!

”Heok!”

I emerge from the domain of purity.

”This place is...!”

Interdimensional Void.

The Middle Realm region.

Woo-wooong!

Beyond the Interdimensional Void, the Astral Realm comes into view, and far in the distance, something like a dimensional veil band soars towards me.

The Sword Spear Heavenly Lord’s winged garment is chasing me in a terrifying manner.

Seeing this, I think to myself.

’Even if I’m running, I must take everyone I can from the Sun and Moon Heavenly Domain.’

Even if the Sword Spear Heavenly Lord is scary, I can’t abandon those I need to take with me.

’And to do that...’

I realize that I will have to take them through slightly forceful means this time, and let out a silent sigh.

’I’m sorry, everyone. Forgive me...!’

Chwararararak!

I draw forth the power of a Heaven Upper Immortal.

The winged garment I gained upon rising to Heaven Upper Immortal.

Woo-wooong!

Though not as massive as the Sword Spear Heavenly Lord’s, my winged garment still spans about the width of a single planet and can stretch long enough to wrap around five entire stellar systems. My ’dimensional veil band’ appears behind me.

This is my winged garment.

I roughly understand how to use it by watching the Sword Spear Heavenly Lord’s.

I have to imbue my prophecy into the winged garment.

”Winged garment, bring me the ones I name. Show them to me...”

Suppressing my guilt, I command my winged garment.

”Kidnap them and confine them within my body. Make them return to me (歸依). Now, go! Summon my servants! Seize those I need!”

Chwararararak!

My winged garment receives my command, instantly piercing through spacetime and flying towards somewhere.

Chwarararak!

The Sword Spear Heavenly Lord’s winged garment arrives before my eyes.

The winged garment emits a silver-white light, and through that light, the Sword Spear Heavenly Lord appears before my eyes again.

Booong!

I attempt to cut my own neck, but the Sword Spear Heavenly Lord, piercing through the fleeting instant, strongly grips my hand.
