Only three seconds? He's already the Lord of All Realms, so it doesn't matter.

As his biological clock struck, Ye Xuan woke up. The chaotic thoughts he had before falling asleep vanished upon waking, like a dream of Zhuangzi's butterfly dream.

It's 5 a.m. Now, after a quick wash, he goes to the bus stop outside the residential area to wait for the first bus at 5:30 a.m.

The morning breeze in the height of summer is not as biting as it is in winter.

After his body underwent changes unlike those of ordinary people, Ye Xuan began to appreciate natural things more and more.

Listen to the wind, watch the sunrise and sunset, and witness the changing world...

His mind became increasingly calm, so calm that he almost missed the bus.

I hurriedly scanned the QR code to board the bus and then took another bus to the foot of Gaoquan Mountain.

He skillfully followed the path, quickly climbing the mountain until he reached the summit.

It was still that short, thick stone pillar. Ye Xuan stood on it, spreading his senses outwards while maintaining a peaceful state of mind.

The spiritual energy that was scattered between heaven and earth began to flow into his body in wisps and strands.

Half an hour later, after several cycles of circulation, the spiritual energy in his body returned to his dantian, and a feeling of fullness immediately spread throughout his body.

Ye Xuan clearly felt that his spiritual energy was accumulating more than before. The problem now was—

He didn't have any cultivation techniques in the immortal cultivation system, so he didn't know what level he was currently at.

Qi Refining, Foundation Building? Or is there some other terminology?

Compared to his unfathomable cultivation level, Ye Xuan knew all too well how much his own perception had improved due to spiritual energy cultivation.

Starting from oneself, one extends perception outward.

Wherever your gaze falls, the cityscape within a six-kilometer radius comes into view.

"Goose, goose~ goose~ uh!"

Two kilometers away in the distance, at the Third High School, the familiar yet jarring reveille is waking up all the teachers and students.

Soon, the oval-shaped track and field was packed with people, who were doing their morning exercises in time with the chants of the morning runners.

Ye Xuan closed his eyes, his vision disappeared, leaving only his other four senses, which locked onto the playground of the Third High School.

"Ugh, so annoying! Is the sports committee member on drugs? He's running so fast. Let's go outside and untie some shoelaces."

At the end of the line in Class 4 of Grade 1, there was a pair of boys of different heights and builds, whispering to each other.

"Look for yourself, we're not the only ones trying to sneak around."

Following the fat man's directions, the boy who had spoken earlier looked toward the lawn in the center of the playground.

Several students pretended to tie their shoelaces, but instead of getting a short break, they were surrounded by two school leaders...

He scratched his head, and as he passed by his homeroom teacher, he saw the teacher's fierce gaze again, so he continued running exercises with his head down.

Ye Xuan withdrew his senses, reopened his eyes, and gazed at the rising sun in the distance.

"Mmm, I'm hungry."

He went down the mountain to the breakfast shop, ordered two full-size breakfasts, and packed them up to take home.

At eight o'clock in the morning, Ye Xuan's parents had already arrived at the martial arts school. Ye Xuan had sent a message last night saying that he would take a day off today to prepare for the interview.

Standing by the bedroom window, his senses soared to the heavens, and the image of Hongtian Escort Agency appeared in his mind once again.

It was just nighttime, and a full moon hung high in the sky. Even without modern lighting, the entire Hongtian Escort Agency was brightly lit by candlelight and moonlight.

Perception extends outwards by six kilometers from the point of origin of one's arrival.

This time, Ye Xuan saw some ordinary buildings in the city, besides Hongtian Escort Agency.

With a slight thought, he locked onto a wisp of spiritual energy drifting between heaven and earth not far away.

Next, the perception range was refreshed, and the origin point returned to the location of that wisp of spiritual energy!

Ye Xuan, unhurriedly, placed the starting point at the entrance of Hongtian Escort Agency using the same method.

Extending his view outwards by six kilometers, he witnessed parts of the state capital:

The streets, shrouded in night, are wide and clean, brightly lit, and people enjoy a vibrant nightlife.

Some people were selecting their favorite items in front of the shops, some were performing on the street for money, and several children were walking together, darting between the dark and the bright.

Ye Xuan noticed a building at the end of the street, half of which was blocked by an inn.

It was an impressive building; its height, converted to reality, would probably be over a hundred meters.

With focused attention, he once again found the drifting spiritual energy in the world, traversing two or three kilometers, and continuously approaching the vicinity of that pavilion from the origin.

We're almost there!

Ye Xuan finally locked onto a wisp of spiritual energy, and was about to move there when his consciousness was instantly severed.

Back in reality, he slumped helplessly by the window.

The time was much shorter than I had anticipated, which shows that this kind of perception attached to the flow of spiritual energy would cause considerable consumption to myself.

I glanced at the time on my phone; it was already 12:30 PM.

Each time Ye Xuan travels through different worlds, the passage of time he sees should be roughly the same as in reality.

However, in the transit station between Earth and the other world, the area where perception is probed and consciousness is confused, the moment of the journey seems to take a long time in reality.

Ye Xuan had no choice but to give up for now. If he wanted to sense that world again, he would have to wait until nightfall...

He went out of his house and ordered a pork knuckle rice at the fast food restaurant downstairs.

The restaurant was crowded at mealtime. He ate quietly, his chopsticks piercing the tender, stewed pork knuckle skin as he pondered something.

Perception extends outwards, reaching into the skies above the city.

On Earth, he doesn't need to worry about time.

With his mind focused on the spiritual energy scattered between heaven and earth high in the sky, Ye Xuan grasped a wisp of it at the edge of the six-kilometer horizon.

By transcending its own origin, the range of its perception has been refreshed once again!

"Is it even simpler on Earth?"

Ye Xuan thought that perhaps it was because the spiritual energy on Blue Star was thinner than in other worlds, making it easier to manipulate.

He used up all the spiritual power in his body and finally crossed to Sichuan Province, which was thousands of miles away.

On the streets of the provincial capital, the midday sun was scorching, with the temperature approaching forty degrees Celsius.

His senses detected a shop specializing in braised pig's trotters, and the scene of the shop being packed with customers and the staff bustling around appeared in his mind.

"Ouch, let's move on, let's move on!"

An older woman carrying food made her way through the crowd, the steaming pig's trotters on her plate almost reaching table number 34.

Suddenly, she stumbled and lost her balance, and the pig's trotters in the bowl, along with the soup and ingredients, were about to spill out.

Ye Xuan sensed something was wrong, and his mind trembled at that moment—

The woman who was about to fall seemed to be supported by something and gradually regained her balance.

"Um?"

Ye Xuan's keen senses detected the changes around him, and he discovered that there was a clear fluctuation of spiritual energy around the old woman.

That sudden burst of spiritual power originated from himself.

"..."

Ye Xuan withdrew his senses from Sichuan Province, finished eating the braised pork trotters on his plate, and returned home.

His thoughts soared into the sky once more, this time his senses reached a deep, ancient forest in Yunnan Province.

With the origin of perception as the core, Ye Xuan maintained his focus, ensuring that he could always pay attention to that area, while his body began to circulate spiritual energy, preparing to unleash the Flood Heaven Palm.

The whirlwind generated by Hong Tianzhang's gathering power did not appear in his hand, but rather at the location of the origin of that wisp of spiritual energy.

That is, the sky above a mountain forest in Yunnan Province!

The tiny blue whirlwind would go unnoticed by anyone, but the energy within it was beyond imagination.

Ye Xuan flipped his wrist and unleashed the Flood Heaven Palm, sending a blue whirlwind crashing down onto a clearing in the dense forest.

"Bang!"

A muffled explosion rang out, followed by a gust of wind that scattered birds and beasts in the forest, and caused fallen leaves to dance in the air.

After the commotion subsided, a crater more than ten meters in diameter was left at the center of the cyclone explosion.

Ye Xuan withdrew all his senses, and the spiritual energy in his body returned to his dantian as his breathing became steady.

He opened his eyes, and although he was in his bedroom at home, he felt as if he were in the world.

"Heaven and earth were born together with me, and all things are one with me."

This is Ye Xuan's most direct feeling at this moment: he feels as if he exists in harmony with heaven and earth, and all things belong to him!
