Cao Ya opened a passage and a spatial window in her inner world for Chen Nan and Long Baobao.
"Oh my hair, I'm so excited!" Baby Dragon suddenly shouted happily, jumping up and down with great excitement.
"Phew." Chen Nan breathed a sigh of relief. His first thought was that Cao Ya's inner world was alright, after all, countless creatures lived within it.
But in fact, Chen Nan was also quite excited. Once, he lingered on the dark earth, thinking that the whole world had been destroyed and that he was the only one left in the world. Now, he not only met the dragon baby, but also reunited with "Purple Thunder Sword Ancestor" Cao Ya, and saw a bright world, in which countless human cities appeared, bustling with people coming and going, farming, fishing and hunting, looking very content.
In Yu Chennan's view, the most terrifying torment is loneliness. Even if one's cultivation is extraordinary, what is the point if the whole world has been destroyed and one is the only one left to live in a broken world?
Of course, this might be acceptable to Cao Ya.
Who made his inner world home to so many humans?
"How about it, want to go in and take a look?" Cao Ya smiled slightly.
Within this inner world, birdsong and fragrant flowers create a peaceful and serene atmosphere. Verdant mountains, vast plains, pristine icebergs, and surging waves of rivers, lakes, and seas—all these are real and not illusions. This is a truly tangible little world, a sub-plane.
"Yes, I want to go in." The baby dragon circled in the air, very excited, its tail swishing and colliding with the destructive wind, making a loud banging sound.
Meanwhile, the baby dragon swallowed hard, muttering happily:
"Finally, I've entered a world with living beings. I want to eat roasted chicken wings, braised duck feet, candied hawthorns, and delicious spirit wine."
The little guy happily swayed in the air before landing on Chen Nan's shoulder, rolling up and down as if it couldn't wait.
Chen Nan gently stroked the baby dragon and smiled at Cao Ya:
"'Purple Thunder Sword Ancestor,' I'd better comply... Alright, I'm also very curious and eager to see the scenery of the human world again. So, Dragon Baby and I... let's go in and have a look around."
"Haha, please." Cao Ya laughed and separated a wisp of his avatar, taking Chen Nan and the dragon baby into the inner world to wander around, enjoy the scenery, and taste the food.
In fact, at their level of cultivation, they no longer need to eat to replenish their energy and nutrition. Doing so is simply a way of reminiscing and wanting to relive the happiness of the past.
Today, Cao Ya's inner world has a population of hundreds of millions, numerous cities, and countless towns and villages.
The three of them wandered around, stopping occasionally to eat and drink to their hearts' content in restaurants and taverns, indulging in lavish meals and fine wines. Chen Nan then paid the bill.
Chen Nan's eyes were moist, and he was so moved that he almost cried.
"I'm sorry you had to see this." Chen Nan wiped his eyes.
Cao Ya smiled but did not answer; he simply shook his head.
Although most people in this world have come to know Cao Ya's face through decades of propaganda—some of the people Cao Ya rescued had seen him, drawn his portrait, and spread it around the world, remembering his kindness and gratitude—it was not Cao Ya's initiative to do so, and he paid little attention to these matters, since he had entrusted all matters of order and justice to the Pure White God of Law—when Cao Ya's avatar was condensed, he slightly adjusted his appearance, so naturally, no one in the inner world could recognize him.
"Huh, what's that?" Chen Nan seemed to sense something and looked up at the sky.
In the depths of the sky, a figure dressed in pure white robes appeared and disappeared.
Upon hearing of the existence of the pure white god of magic, Chen Nan was greatly surprised, then clapped his hands in amazement and expressed great admiration.
However, Dragon Baby didn't care much about these things; he only cared about food and drink.
To avoid attracting too much attention, the dragon baby transformed into a child, exquisitely carved like a porcelain doll, holding various delicacies in both hands, wolfing them down without ever stopping.
In the end, Cao Ya's avatar dissipated, and Chen Nan also withdrew from Cao Ya's inner world, leaving only Long Baobao. Using the pearl given to him by Chen Nan as gold and silver, he ate and drank heartily, thoroughly enjoying himself. Even when Chen Nan occasionally came to visit him, Long Baobao would pull him away, wanting to share the food, looking completely absorbed in his enjoyment, leaving Chen Nan both amused and exasperated.
Of course, Chen Nan also spent most of his time outside, diligently cultivating, just like Cao Ya.
A hundred years have passed, and Cao Ya's cultivation has advanced to the peak of the middle level of the Heaven Rank. Occasionally, he would spar with Chen Nan, and Cao Ya would usually win.
This is normal. After all, Cao Ya's cultivation level seems to be at the intermediate level of the Heaven Rank, but in reality, his combat strength has reached the advanced level of the Heaven Rank, touching the threshold of the ultimate Heaven Rank.
Cao Ya is proficient in just as many different killing techniques as Chen Nan, so it would be a shame if Cao Ya couldn't achieve victory under these circumstances.
It's not that Chen Nan isn't strong enough—in fact, Chen Nan is already quite powerful. He rarely encounters an opponent within the same realm and can fight across smaller realms.
But Cao Ya wasn't fighting alone.
Although it's all him, it's definitely not one person.
Moreover, Chen Nan was unfamiliar with the methods of other universes and mistakenly thought they were created by Cao Ya. In a short period of time, how could he possibly come up with a solution?
Many of those methods are extraordinary techniques, at least five-star level!
Occasionally, Cao Ya would also exchange with Chen Nan, using top-notch techniques to acquire killing techniques and special arts such as the "Eight Styles of Reversal" and the "Summoning Demon Scripture".
Long Baobao spent much of his time eating, drinking, and having fun in Cao Ya's inner world, but Chen Nan felt the pressure and didn't want to see Long Baobao's near-death state again. If he hadn't stumbled upon him in time, Long Baobao would have truly died. Therefore, Chen Nan was sometimes a strict teacher, taking Long Baobao away to urge him to cultivate diligently. Only after meeting certain conditions could he be allowed to enter Cao Ya's inner world again.
The baby dragon muttered to itself, but it was cultivating diligently and without any slack.
Chen Nan was quite pleased to see this.
Cao Ya watched with a smile, also pleased to see it happen.
One day, a hundred years later, Cao Ya was studying the "Summoning Demon Scripture" of the Chen family in the Heavenly Realm when suddenly a powerful life force appeared in his consciousness, vast and mighty, as if illuminating the desolate dark earth.
At the same time, Chen Nan and Long Baobao also sensed it.
"Chen Nan, Cao Ya, I sensed someone." Long Baobao called out, and with a "poof," it transformed from a delicate porcelain doll back into a golden little ball.
It doesn't look like a dragon at all.
"That is..."
Cao Ya looked up, his eyes gleaming with divine light. His gaze seemed to pierce through the void, seeing a figure traversing the chaos, tearing through the vast chaotic air currents, coming from the depths of the chaos, and descending upon this dark world.
