Chapter 100: Doorways and Tokens

To understand the so-called coordinate room, we need to start with the minor lands created by Demi-Gods.

These minor lands were originally created by warriors using their own Dao as the foundation, with their Dantian as the basis.

They existed where the warrior’s Dantian originally was.

Since cultivators lived within the Grand Wilderness and were attached to its current space, the minor lands within a warrior’s body also depend on the Grand Wilderness space.

However, when the warrior was alive, the minor lands were separated from the Grand Wilderness space by a layer. Outsiders needed the owner’s permission to enter or had to kill the owner to force their way in.

However, warriors could choose to lift part of this restriction.

This was how these spatial passages between the minor lands and the Grand Wilderness came to be.

Generally, these spatial passages used the practitioner as a coordinate and moved with the practitioner.

But if the practitioner wished, they could fix an entrance and exit to the minor lands in one place.

Most Demi-God stage warriors did this.

Through these fixed passages, even if the warrior was far away, they could transfer through the minor lands.

The farther they were, the more power they consumed.

“A warrior can open or close the passage that uses their body as a coordinate, but not the fixed ones. Although convenient, it also creates a passage that outsiders can use to sneak into the minor lands. That’s why Demi-God warriors hide their fixed passages very well and set up a network of traps around the area connected to the minor lands. After all, Demi-God warriors won’t give up this convenient teleportation method just because they fear intruders. Of course, warriors can also close these fixed passages. However, once closed, the coordinate left on the other side becomes useless, and the passage is rendered defunct. To create a new passage, they would have to start from scratch.”

Looking at the four doors in the coordinate room, Lin Fanyun understood why the remnant of Zhong Chun hadn’t used these passages.

Savage Region: Thousand Birds Peak

Demon Region: Sunken Water Lake

Forbidden Area: Desolate Valley

Chaos Region: Thousand Tribe City.

Lin Fanyun had never heard of these places, but he knew about the Savage Region, Demon Region, Chaos Region, and Forbidden Area.

“No wonder Zhong Chun’s remnant didn’t want to go to these places. I wouldn’t want to either. Compared to the True Martial Continent, these places are too dangerous.”

Lin Fanyun felt a bit disappointed. These four doors could have let him leave the foggy region of the Abyssal Sea. But the other side might not be any safer than the foggy region.

He thought it might be better to stay on the True Martial Continent, where he could at least roam freely.

Since he couldn’t use the four doors for now, Lin Fanyun reinforced them, locking them tightly. He also cleaned up the formations in the coordinate room to prevent anyone from coming through from the other side.

However, considering no one had come through these doors in countless years, it was clear that Zhong Chun had hidden them well. Lin Fanyun didn’t need to worry too much about this for now.

“It looks like I’ll have to use the passage to the True Martial Continent.”

Lin Fanyun thought. Staying in Zhong Chun’s minor land wasn’t an option because who knew where it would drift next?

Even though he had gained some control over the minor land through the Palace of All Things, it wasn’t enough to control its direction.

Who knew if some powerful being might find the passage and break in?

It was important to note that the passage connected to the True Martial Continent was different from the four doors.

This passage had formed after Zhong Chun’s death, allowing the minor land to continue existing by linking to the Grand Wilderness and absorbing its scattered energies.

Unless Lin Fanyun could completely control Zhong Chun’s minor land, he couldn’t close this passage. But that didn’t mean Lin Fanyun had given up on the minor land.

On the contrary, thanks to Zhong Chun binding the minor land to the Palace of All Things, Lin Fanyun could create a new fixed passage to the minor land through the Palace of All Things. However, Lin Fanyun decided not to place the door to this passage in the coordinate room.

Lin Fanyun returned to the core area where the Palace of All Things’ artifact spirit was initially stored. Using the power of the Palace, he created a door and a token.

The door and the token were linked by a passageway.

“The important thing isn’t the token itself, but the coordinate mark within it. Only a Demi-God or higher can create the minor land coordinates. Thankfully, the Palace of All Things is a demi-god artifact, otherwise, I wouldn’t be able to do this.”

With this token, Lin Fanyun could leave Zhong Chun’s minor land and still return whenever he wanted.

At that moment, Lin Fanyun remembered something. 

“I wonder what the coordinates on the other side of those four doors are tied to?”

“Maybe I’ll check them out in the future if I get the chance.”

More days passed as creating a passage wasn’t a quick task. While Lin Fanyun was busy, Ye Xiaoshu and Wang Luo grew increasingly anxious. Finally, Lin Fanyun walked out.

“Huh? These two are fighting someone?” Lin Fanyun sensed the battle’s fluctuations and extended his physical senses.

“They’re not Feather Clan. No wings. They must be from the minor land.”

Lin Fanyun quickly figured out the attackers’ origins.

“Wang Luo, Ye Xiaoshu! You traitors dared to side with an outsider and conspired against us. You deserve to die.”

“I’ll avenge my people, Wang Luo and Ye Xiaoshu!”

“Prepare to die!”

A large group of warriors surrounded Wang Luo and Ye Xiaoshu, but Wang Luo showed no fear.

“Baseless accusations! You didn’t show up before, and now you all come running. You know the real reason,” Wang Luo scoffed, noticing their greedy glances toward the Palace of All Things.

“But you seem to have forgotten who I am. You bunch of worthless fools dare to bark at me? Ridiculous!”

Without further words, Wang Luo attacked fiercely, revealing his fourth layer True Core cultivation.

Before encountering the True Martial Continent, Wang Luo was the strongest in Zhong Chun’s minor land, unmatched by anyone. He was in a league of his own. Usually, it took five True Core experts to challenge him.

Now, with only four surrounding him, why should he be afraid?

The four True Core experts’ expressions changed. Wang Luo’s bold response surprised them. Greed had clouded their judgment, leading to a poor decision. But as warriors, they were also driven by courage. Wang Luo might have dominated before, but now in a death match, they believed four-on-one wasn’t impossible.

However, after a few exchanges, the four were already struggling, finding it increasingly difficult to hold their ground.

Meanwhile, Ye Xiaoshu wasn’t idle. He faced three late-stage Acquired warriors alone.

As the chosen one of the minor land, he was even more formidable than Wang Luo, capable of fighting ten at a time.

If not for their slight advantage in cultivation, the three late-stage warriors wouldn’t stand a chance against him.

Of course, Ye Xiaoshu could only handle three. Any more would overwhelm him.

And there were far more than three Acquired warriors surrounding them. The lower-level warriors couldn’t get close, pushed back by the shockwaves from the battle between the True Core experts.

This situation was intentional on Wang Luo’s part. He divided his focus to create this scenario.

Ye Xiaoshu understood, enduring the turbulent energy waves but not leaving the battlefield.

The four True Core and three late-stage Acquired warriors grew increasingly frustrated. They were clearly at a disadvantage. It was evident that if the fight continued, Wang Luo and Ye Xiaoshu would prevail.
