If you imagine the Multiverse as a flat map and look down from above, the layout of the Multiverse is like this.
Earth is located on the edge of the Multiverse, surrounded by desolate, uninhabited, and pletely vacuous areas without a trace of Spiritual Energy. This vacuum territory is so vast that it occupies a space on this flat map of the Multiverse.
Places such as the Tian Zhao Star Domain and the Divine Realm of Lihen, which Xue An once visited, although seemingly far away from Earth, are actually Earth’s neighbors on this map, only a stone’s throw away.
In addition, Ye Hanshang’s Ghost Realm, Huyue’s Qingqiu Fox Country, and others are like brilliant stars, scattered across every corner of the Multiverse, shining brightly in the dark void.
The Pure Land Buddhist Country is located at the other end of the Multiverse, and interestingly, there is also a large area of Spiritual Energy vacuum surrounding the Pure Land Buddhist Country, facing Earth from afar, forming a perfect symmetry on the map, pelling one to speculate an unknown connection.
Regardless of how dazzling the surroundings are, the true thriving area within the Multiverse belongs to the central Starry Sea.
If viewed from above on the map, the central Starry Sea is so radiant that it is too blinding to gaze at directly.
These radiances, in fact, consist of numerous planets abundant in Spiritual Energy and stable in laws.
The lights link together, forming a whole, like a golden sun, illuminating the entire void.
Previously, when Xue An followed Mu Wushuang to participate in the Thousand Sect Profound Assembly, even though Shangqing Mountain was formidable, it was merely situated on the edge of the Starry Sea.
Despite only the edge, it still nurtured countless brilliant cultivation civilizations, giving rise to many great sects akin to grand schools in the void.
From this, it’s imaginable how formidable the sects deep within the Starry Sea must be.
In fact, in the depths of the Starry Sea, there are many sects that never emerge; they are like the shadows behind the light, always hidden in the darkness, silently watching everything happening in the Multiverse.
Only on very few occasions would the descendants of these sects emerge fleetingly like a glimpse of a startled swan, then rush back into obscurity, leaving no trace.
Moreover, this Starry Sea territory is exceedingly vast, even the once Immortal Venerable Xue An has not traversed its depths fully.
It could be said that there are many hidden corners in the depths of the Starry Sea that many cultivators might never set foot in during their lifetime.
How many secrets are buried within is also entirely unknown.
However, recently, the Starry Sea has bee somewhat different.
Due to the high bounties offered by the Profound Ming Tomb, the Emperor’s Palace, and various major sects, there are now many Bounty Hunters moving through the Starry Sea, ghost-like, flitting from planet to planet, desperately seeking clues about Xue An.
In this situation, the atmosphere of the Starry Sea has bee a bit tense.
Yet, while these Bounty Hunters tirelessly attempt to track down Xue An’s whereabouts, they do not know a rather inconspicuous Starship suddenly appeared in the Starry Sea at this very moment.
This is a solitary void.
Although on the flat map, the stars within the Starry Sea appear densely packed, almost touching each other.
In reality, due to the vastness of the territory, these stars are at least separated by billions and billions of miles.
Xue An sat within the Starship, observing the surrounding star maps with a calm demeanor.
This was already the tenth day since he had departed the Pure Land Buddhist Country.
Limited by the speed of this Starship, he had just arrived in the Starry Sea.
After examining the star map for a bit, he slowly closed his eyes.
Instantly, his Divine Sense spread like a tide, extending countless tendrils, beginning to probe the surrounding Starry Sky.
After merely a few breaths, Xue An suddenly shuddered all over, then thoughtfully lifted his gaze towards a certain direction in the void.
Immediately, the Starship emitted a massive roar, accelerated fiercely, and then vanished from its original location.
This was an exceedingly ordinary Starry Sky, so monplace that one might find nothing memorable here.
In the distance, a light green planet slowly rotated.
In the depths of the Starry Sea, there are countless planets like this, not particularly surprising.
Yet, in such a seemingly unremarkable section of the Starry Sky, several Starships suddenly appeared.
These Starships varied in size and design; one even bore a skull emblem, intimidating to behold.
At this moment, these Starships hovered not far from the light green planet, municating with each other through Divine Sense.
"Master Yang, is this Vast Righteous Academy you’re speaking of just ahead?" An excited voice came from one of the Starships.
In the central Starship, a middle-aged man with a vigorous aura nodded, "That’s right, its color is light green, exactly the location of Vast Righteous Academy’s Sect!"
"Was Vast Righteous Academy truly founded by the Red Lotus Immortal Venerable?" Another voice inquired skeptically from another Starship.
"I spent a fortune to acquire this information from a long-lived Loose Cultivator; it cannot be wrong!" Master Yang confidently replied.
"Heh heh, we’re going to hit it big this time. If we can ascertain Xue An’s precise whereabouts through this Vast Righteous Academy, just the rewards from the Emperor’s Palace and Profound Ming Tomb would be enough for us to enjoy a feast!" Someone chuckled eerily.
"That’s right, otherwise, why would I bring you across millions of miles of void to this godforsaken place!" Master Yang boasted proudly.
"Indeed! All thanks to Master Yang’s planning!"
"Master Yang, victorious!"
Voices of flattery echoed simultaneously from the Starships.
Though Master Yang felt smug inside, as a top-notch Bounty Hunter, he maintained clarity.
Exactly!
He and all the people on these Starships were Bounty Hunters, from the same bounty group.
As implied, a bounty group is when several individuals join forces to take on plicated tasks, splitting the bounty upon pletion.
Recently, the most significant news in the Multiverse’s bounty circles is undoubtedly the reward for Xue An by the major sects.
As time passed and layers of rewards stacked up, the task regarding Xue An has been elevated to a new height.
Not requiring you to find Xue An, as long as you can provide his exact whereabouts, the bounty is unimaginably rich.
Under such temptation, Bounty Hunters throughout the Multiverse have red eyes, almost turning every stone, searching for Xue An’s location.
Shi Yang and his people were no exception, but Shi Yang differed from ordinary individuals; he was shrewd. Throughout this time, he noticed that neither Bounty Hunters nor major sects, despite deploying massive forces and expending countless efforts, still had no clue about Xue An.
