The Seven Star Realm is located in the south of the Southern Divine Territory, close to the southern edge of the Southern Divine Territory. It is named because it surrounds seven brilliant stars.
Of the 40,000 star realms in the vast divine domain, the lower star realms alone account for 30,000, which is more than 70%. As one of the lower star realms, the star field of the Seven Star Realm is very small, and even its profound aura is weaker than that of most lower star realms.
Obviously, this is not a star realm that focuses on the Mysterious Dao. This type of star realm is very rare in the God Realm, but each one has some unique features.
"We're here! Let's go down and take a look!"
The core of a star realm is usually where the realm king's sect is located, but the Seven Star Realm is different. Its core is called the Seven Star Business Domain.
Arriving above the Seven Star Business Region, a lively atmosphere filled their faces. Shui Meiyin tightened Yun Che's hand and could not wait to fall down.
The Seven Star Business Region spreads over thousands of miles, with countless chambers of commerce, small shops and stalls scattered in every corner, selling a wide variety of items:
Weapons, mysterious tools, exotic stones, rare flowers, ancient jade, formation plates, decorations, delicacies, outer garments, mysterious boats, mysterious beasts, intelligence... and so on and so forth.
There were even some bizarre things that were enough to make Yun Che gasp in amazement.
"Wow! Wow!" Shui Meiyin kept exclaiming, her starry eyes looking around, already overwhelmed: "It's so lively, there are so many strange things, exactly the same as what Brother Jiujiu said... Wow!"
The atmosphere of the market… It was not that many years ago, but it gave Yun Che an extremely distant and even somewhat unreal feeling.
Yin Xue, King Realm, God Emperor, Demon Lord… After entering the God Realm, he walked too fast and climbed too high. The places where he walked and stood in these years made him feel as if he was isolated from such a world.
Shui Meiyin, who was born in the Liuguang Realm and has been extremely cared for since childhood, is coming to such a world for the first time.
“In the Eastern Divine Region, there is also a similar star realm. Although it is smaller, it is equally lively.” Yun Che said.
When he fell, he and Shui Meiyin used their profound energy to change their appearances and tried their best to suppress their auras. Otherwise, if he showed up directly with his face as a demon lord that was basically known to everyone, it would probably cause chaos in the entire Seven Star Realm in an instant.
Shui Meiyin turned her head immediately: "Really?"
“It’s called the Black Ya Realm.” Yun Che said, “That should be the star realm with the most chambers of commerce among the lower star realms in the Eastern Divine Region. But unlike here, the Black Ya Realm also pursues the profound way.”
The Black Ya Realm of the Eastern Divine Region had a rather powerful Black Soul Sect at that time. However, in this Seven Star Realm, Yun Che's spiritual perception did not find the aura of a sect of the same level as the Black Soul Sect. Instead, there were only some medium-sized forces scattered all over the place.
“Hei Ya… I seem to have heard Daddy talk about this star realm.” She suddenly looked curious: “Brother Yun Che, I remember that after you arrived in the God Realm, you directly joined the Divine Ice Phoenix Sect in the Snow Song Realm. How did you know about the Hei Ya Realm? And it seems… you have been there before.”
Memories came flooding back, and Yun Che said, “Back then, I made a big mistake and offended my master. I was so terrified that I chose to flee. The place I fled to was the Black Ya Realm.”
It was also there that he met He Lin, and later on, Shen Xi took him in and formed a bond with He Ling.
Any node in life that you think is insignificant may sometimes affect the direction of your life.
“Eh?” Shui Meiyin’s eyes were filled with curiosity: “Brother Yun Che actually…ran away? Did he do something very excessive to Master?”
“…” Yun Che shook his head and changed the subject, “Which place is your brother Jiujiu talking about? For him to praise it so highly, it must be extraordinary.”
"It's nearby. It should be here soon."
Without asking the previous question again, Shui Meiyin said excitedly: "That place is called Qimengxuan. Brother Jiujiu said that if you come to the Southern Divine Region to play, you must try the Jade Lotus Heart Soup there."
“…” Yun Che smiled and squeezed her palm: “You traveled across such a large star field just for a bowl of soup?”
"That's not just any soup." Shui Meiyin's long eyelashes fluttered like butterfly wings: "Brother Jiujiu said that it is the most supreme enjoyment in the world. It is so delicious that it can almost make people's souls leave their bodies and forget all their worries."
"Although it sounds a bit exaggerated, Brother Jiujiu would never lie to me. Unfortunately, the Jade Heart Soup must be enjoyed right after it is made. Otherwise, even if it is only more than a quarter of an hour or two, the taste will be greatly reduced. So if you want to taste it, you have to come here in person."
Shinto mystics don't need to eat at all, whether it's wine or food.
Purely for the enjoyment of taste buds.
For a Shintoist to cross the star field just for this kind of enjoyment... maybe it's normal?
Following the memory image given by Shui Yinghen, Shui Meiyin looked around: "It seems to be nearby, I'll go ask."
"Grandpa, where is Qimengxuan?"
The "grandfather" Shui Meiyin called had a wrinkled face and gray hair. His cultivation was only at the beginning of the Emperor Profound Realm, and his life span was no more than 500 years at most. In front of him was a pile of strange-shaped ancient stones, and it seemed that he was an old stall owner who lived here for a long time.
Although Shui Meiyin concealed her appearance, she possessed a pure soul. Even if she did not release any of her soul power, she still had an invisible charm that no one could resist. No one would be on guard in front of her.
Facing Shui Meiyin's inquiry, the "grandfather's" cold face instantly became gentle, and he said with a smile: "Little girl, you came at the wrong time. Qimengxuan was closed seven days ago, and the people inside are no longer in the Seven Star Realm."
"Bi Xuan?" Shui Meiyin was startled and asked, "Why Bi Xuan? It's so popular, so the business shouldn't be bad."
“It has nothing to do with this.” The old man stopped smiling and sighed, “The demons from the Northern Divine Territory have invaded our Southern Divine Territory. The Nanming Divine Realm is gone, and the Canglan, Xuanyuan, and Ziwei Three King Realms are even more… Alas!”
"Although it is still peaceful now, we never know when those demons will wreak havoc everywhere. By then, we will be the fish on the chopping board."
Yun Che: “…”
"Now, not only the Seven Star Realm, but also any of the surrounding star realms, those with rich families have begun to flee or prepare to flee. The best place to go is, of course, the Western Divine Region where the Dragon God Realm is located, but it is not a place that ordinary people can go. Most people have to temporarily hide in the lower realms with turbid auras."
“As for people like us,” the old man shook his head, “we can only leave it to fate. If the demon race is destroyed by the Dragon God Realm in the future, it will be fine. But what if… Oh, I dare not think about it.”
Shui Meiyin's expression darkened a little: "Then... Grandpa, do you know where the people from Qimengxuan have fled to?"
"I don't know. If you really want to know, you can try asking the carving chef at the beef offal stall next door."
"...Well, thank you, grandpa."
After returning to Yun Che's side, Shui Meiyin lowered her head slightly, and the smile on her face disappeared.
“It seems like this was a wasted trip.” Yun Che tilted his eyes to look at her expression.
She pursed her lips lightly, and when she raised her eyes, she was already smiling brightly: "How could that be. With Brother Yun Che by my side, no matter where I go or what I do, I will be the happiest."
“…” Yun Che looked at her for a while, his eyes seemed to be full of meaning: “We can’t go to Qimengxuan, so where are we going now? Back to Canglan?”
"No." Shui Meiyin hugged his hand tightly, ignoring the bustling crowd around, and pressed her slender body against him: "Brother Yun Che is mine now, so I don't want to go back so early. It's so lively here, even if Qimengxuan is gone, there must be many other delicious and fun things. Let's go, let's go over there and take a look."
No longer caring about Qi Mengxuan's affairs, Shui Meiyin pulled him and jogged deeper into the business area.
After wandering around the Seven Star Business District for two hours, Shui Meiyin bought a lot of strange and unique things.
The days here were very short, and the light had dimmed unknowingly. Shui Meiyin walked with Yun Che outside the Seven Star Business Region, holding a string of colorful candies that could be found on the streets of any small town in the lower realm, and she was drooling over the delicious food.
They walked a long way while laughing and joking, and leisurely strolled to a deserted forest, where they could occasionally hear the sounds of birds and beasts, but rarely saw any human beings.
At this moment, four figures rushed out from the front, accompanied by a low sneer: "Hey, stop."
Four people, two in the late Shenyuan realm, two in the middle Shenhun realm, four auras pressed lightly on the two preys whose auras were weak and who had no power to resist, and their eyes swept over them wantonly.
"Poor creature, you came from the Seven Star Business Region, right?" The leader grinned, revealing his teeth that gleamed coldly: "If you want to live, then you should obediently hand over the black crystals on your body..."
Not wanting to waste a single word of nonsense, not even willing to move a finger, Yun Che's eyes flashed with a dark light, and the four people instantly turned into dark powder and dispersed in the wind.
It is not clear whether to say they are too lucky or too unlucky to have robbed the Demon Lord.
Shui Meiyin put down the colorful string of candies on her lips and said faintly: "The Seven Star Realm is a star realm dominated by business.
People from other star realms are protected by many rules set by the upper star realms. For example, large profound boats cannot be driven over the business domain, and too strong auras cannot be released in the city, etc. "
"It is a big taboo to bully others and rob others by force. If anyone violates this rule, he will be severely punished."
"But... looters have started to appear here, and they are covered in blood. They not only loot, but also kill people."
“…” Yun Che did not speak, but listened quietly.
"In a war between high-level planes, low-level planes are not qualified to participate, and they have almost no ability to even slightly interfere. It seems that they will not be affected. But in fact, they may be the ones who are most affected."
"Even a star realm dominated by merchants is in a state of panic. The order has collapsed to this extent. It is hard to imagine other star realms..."
Looking ahead, she hummed softly, "When the storm tries to topple the big trees, the most miserable ones are the innocent plants and ants."
Yun Che stopped and looked at the girl’s profile and asked, “Is this what you wanted to tell me today?”
“Eh?” Shui Meiyin seemed to come back to her senses suddenly. She turned her eyes to look at Yun Che and blinked hard: “No, I just suddenly felt a little emotional.”
Yun Che leaned forward slightly, stretched out his hand and pulled Shui Meiyin's shoulders. He looked directly into those black jade-like eyes with a doting smile on his face: "It's already now, and you still don't tell the truth."
"At such a critical time, you brought me across such a large star field to here, just for a bowl of Jade Heart Soup? You think I'm a three-month-old piglet."
“Puff!”
Such childish and witty remarks coming from the mouth of the evil demon lord made Shui Meiyin burst out laughing.
"Besides, you are usually so smart, but this time you used such a low... uh, simple and rigid method to bring me here. It seems that you are very eager to tell me or let me see something, right?"
"..." Shui Meiyin opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but immediately bit her lips again, and then murmured softly: "It's not a very low-level method, it's just because I know that no matter how willful the request is, Brother Yun Che will definitely not have the heart to refuse me."
The starlight in his eyes also became slightly disordered, as if hesitating about something.
“Let me guess.” Yun Che smiled and said, “You hope that our fierce battle with the Dragon God Realm will not affect innocent people as much as possible, and… in the future, when I replace Long Bai and become the Supreme Being of the world, I will restore order and treat the world kindly, right?”
Shui Meiyin's eyes were still trembling. She didn't nod, nor did she shake her head... After a while, she looked at Yun Che and finally spoke: "When Qianye Ying'er sent me a message, I could hear that she was very worried. Brother Yun Che is so eager to break through the Dragon God Realm. I... I am really worried and afraid... I am afraid that behind your eagerness, there will be... a great danger."
"Just like you risked great danger to face the Ming God Cannon in order to break through the Nanming God Realm."
“So…so…”
“……?” Yun Che was slightly stunned.
What Shui Meiyin wanted to say seemed to be very different from what he had guessed.
"After I got the news, my first reaction was to tell you 'that thing'. But...but I was always afraid and hesitant. Until now...I still don't know whether to tell you or not."
"I...I really don't know if now is the right time."
Yun Che frowned...
What Shui Meiyin wanted to say must be extraordinary, as it could make her so hesitant and even a little confused.
Unable to bear watching the girl's vaguely painful mental struggle, he raised his hand and patted Shui Meiyin's shoulder lightly: "It doesn't matter. No matter what it is, good or bad, if you want to tell me, tell me. If you don't want to tell me, then..."
The voice suddenly stopped, and Yun Che turned his head sharply to look towards the southwest, his eyes instantly turning cold.
Shui Meiyin also sensed something at this moment and looked in the same direction as Yun Che. However, compared to the coldness in Yun Che’s eyes, what flashed through her mind the first time was a slight panic.
“Hmph, what a subtle fate.” With a low hum, Yun Che pulled Shui Meiyin’s hand and said, “Meiyin, follow your own will. No one, including me, will force you, and no one will accuse you of being right or wrong. Before you make up your mind, let’s go catch a few fish that have slipped through the net.”
After saying that, he brought Shui Meiyin with him, released his mysterious energy, and headed straight to the southwest.
