Lin Xun looked up and saw a number of bounty flyers hanging above the city wall. They were glowing with mysterious dao light and projecting columns of writing.

Most of the bounty flyers were marked with Lin Xun’s name and appearance, which was very realistic.

Those who issued the bounty included the Primordial Dao Court, Heaven and Earth Dao Court, Panwu Dao Court, Blood Qilin Battle Clan, Taowu Battle Clan, and Heavenly Ghost Battle Clan...

The mention of the names of those clans and sects was enough to send one’s heart leaping with fear.

The bounty rewards would also drive any cultivator crazy. The lowest bounty was still one million dao crystals as well as all sorts of rare treasures.

Some offered even greater rewards!

“Lin Xun…this person is indeed an outlier. In the vast Ancient Nebula Road, even the disciples of the Great Six Courts are probably not as famous as him.”

“Years have passed, and it is unknown whether he is dead or alive. If he was alive, where would he be now?”

“If I were him, I would never set foot into the Ancient Nebula Road in my life. Otherwise, he would die a terrible death.”

The crowd discussed this enthusiastically.

Lin Xun!

He was a fierce man who went on a killing spree in the Kunlun Dominion and also an extraordinary character who held the secret to becoming an Emperor and Ancestor.

Who in the world would not know about him?

At the same time, everyone knew that he had another identity—He was the most wanted criminal in the Ancient Nebula Road!

As Lin Xun listened in to the discussions around him and ran his eyes over those eye-catching bounty posters, a cold intent flashed across his dark eyes.

Lin’an City was just a small city in Qing State, but there were so many wanted posters of him. It could be imagined that in other places of the Great Primordial Chaos World there were definitely even more of such wanted posters!

“That guy Lin Xun…”

Jintian Xuanyue’s voice seemed to be full of emotions, but she was hesitant to speak.

“What about him?” asked Lin Xun.

“The innocent man gets into trouble because of his wealth. Even if he killed everyone in the Kunlun Dominion and provoked many powerful forces, he could never cause such a huge storm through that alone.”

Jintian Xuanyue thought for a long moment before she continued calmly, “Ultimately, it’s because the fortune and treasures he had gained are too great, and that made the sects and clans unable to sit still.”

Lin Xun nodded without saying anything.

One day, he would make the forces that issued the bounty pay the price!

……

Once they got inside Lin’an City, they were greeted by another bustling and prosperous scene. Whether it was the inns, teahouses, pharmacies, or merchant shops, they were all very impressive.

As a port city, it had all sorts of cultivation materials and supplies imported from other worlds of the Ancient Nebula Road.

Even cultivators local to the Great Primordial Chaos World enjoyed strolling around the port city to browse and pick up some rare items.

Lin Xun stayed in an inn and asked Jintian Xuanyue to buy some texts on the Great Primordial Chaos World.

As someone who had just arrived, he needed to familiarize himself with everything in the world as quickly as possible.

That evening, Jintian Xuanyue brought back several jade slips, such as the Primordial Chaos Landscape Illustration, Primordial Chaos Power Distribution, The Changes in Primordial Chaos Over The Years, Geography of Qing State...

There were all kinds of texts.

When Lin Xun skimmed them, the tremendous amount of information contained in them dazzled and overwhelmed him.

After all, the Great Primordial Chaos World was too vast and boundless. There was no text that could detail everything about the Great Primordial Chaos World.

“Young Master, most of the texts available on the market are incomplete. I heard that in the Library of Texts of the Mythical Huang Dao Court is a text written by a great Emperor figure in ancient times. It is called the Everything of Primordial Chaos Scripture and it is a record of all the worldly matters that happened in the Great Primordial Chaos World since ancient times.”

Jintian Xuanyue’s eyes were full of longing. “I heard that perusing this text can allow one to pry into and understand the changes of the world over time. Not only can one deeply learn the wonders of the Great Primordial Chaos World, but it also has an incredible effect on tempering one’s state of mind.”

Everything of Primordial Chaos Scripture!

This text was a scripture that could be considered a top-tier inheritance!

“We are likely not qualified to read this precious scripture.”

Lin Xun shook his head.

Of course he was tempted, but he knew that unless he was a disciple of the Mythical Huang Dao Court, he would never be able to lay eyes on this precious scripture.

It took Lin Xun a whole night to finish reading all the texts he had bought. He began to have a rough understanding of the Great Primordial Chaos World.

In the early morning, Jintian Xuanyue suddenly said aloud, “Young Master, in three days, a large-scale auction will be held in Lin’an City. It is said that a piece of divine material from an uncharted land will be auctioned. This matter has caused a sensation in the city.”

Lin Xun raised his eyebrows. “Divine material?”

“Yes, this divine material is extremely mysterious. No one can identify its origin and use. After appraisal by treasure appraisers, they can only conclude that the divine material is of immeasurable value.”

“Are you interested in it?” asked Lin Xun.

Jintian Xuanyue took out a jade slip and handed it to him. “These are the treasures that will also be presented in the auction. I’m not particularly interested in that unknown divine material, but I do want to bid for a treasure called Star Scales Black Iron.

Lin Xun hummed in acknowledgment and took the jade slip to have a look.

A dazzling list of tempting treasures were written on the jade slip, some of which were rarely seen on the market.

When Lin Xun glimpsed at the name of one of the treasures, his heart fluttered.

Spatial Boundary Crystal!

This was a type of precious crystal that was condensed when the universe first formed; it was endowed with origin power of the Law of Space.

If refined, it would further improve a cultivator’s control of the Law of Space!

For ordinary cultivators, such treasures were of course rare and invaluable, but they had little use for them.

However, for a supreme Saint-King like Lin Xun, Spatial Boundary Crystals were treasures that would make his heart flutter.

After all, Saint-Kings wielded the power of their Great Dao Field, and their control of it was inseparable from the comprehension of the Laws of Space!

So far, Lin Xun had only created the initial form of his Great Dao Field.

On the one hand, it was because he had high standards for himself and hoped to form a perfect Great Dao Field that was one of a kind in the world.

On the other hand, it was because his grasp over the secrets of the Laws of Space had not yet reached the levels of perfection!

If he refined a piece of Spatial Boundary Crystal, it would definitely be beneficial to him in forming a Great Dao Field.

However, to his disappointment, the Spatial Boundary Crystal auctioned was only the size of a thumb.

Never mind, there’s no harm in going to take a look.

He made a decision after some thought.

In all his years of cultivation, he had never attended any auction, so he was also curious to experience the charm of an auction.

Jintian Xuanyue’s eyes lit up upon hearing Lin Xun agree. She was very excited about the Star Scales Mythic Iron that was offered for auction.

“Young Master, then I will purchase the admission ticket then.”

Jintian Xuanyue’s voice was bright and cheerful, and on her face was a smile that would take anyone’s breath away.

“We are just attending an auction, so why do we need to buy an admission ticket?” Lin Xun was puzzled, but when he was about to ask Jintian Xuanyue about it, she was already gone.

𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞

Shaking his head, Lin Xun began to think about his next move.

“Once the auction is over, we will head to Cloud State."

Cloud State, one of the forty-nine states of the Great Primordial Chaos World, was separated from the Qing Stage by seven states. It would be an extremely long journey, no different from traveling through seven worlds.

Despite that, Lin Xun had to go.

Xuanji Dao Sect was in Cloud State.

Lin Xun was in a very calm state of mind. His current identity was Yu Xuan and he had just arrived in the Great Primordial Chaos World and needed some time to adapt.

He could treat the journey through the seven states as a travel experience to gain a deeper understanding of the charm and beauty of the Great Primordial Chaos World.

……

Meanwhile, outside Lin’an City.

Buzz—

Following the muffled roar of cryptic dao runes, a group of people walked out of a large ancient teleportation array that spanned across the state borders.

Leading the group was Kong Yu, a descendant of the Imperial Kong Clan and a disciple of the Primordial Dao Court!

“Lin’an City.”

Kong Yu narrowed his eyes at the majestic city in the distance as hatred flashed in them.

If everything had gone as he had planned, he would be waiting in front of the city, waiting for Whirlwind Ship to land and for Heavenly Sound Pavilion to hand Liu Qingyan over to him.

But because of his impatience, he instead waited at Brahma Land Great World in the Luminous King Star Field and that led to the devastating calamity where he was almost killed by Sword Emperor Brave Gale.

Thinking of this, he felt an uncontrollable rush of anger and resentment beating at his heart.

“Go investigate where Liu Qingyan and this person are.” He handed a jade slip to the person standing beside him.

The jade slip was imprinted with an illustration of Liu Qingyan and Yu Xuan, who was Lin Xun’s disguise.

“Yes.”

The old man beside Kong Yu took the order and left in a hurry.

An hour later the old man returned and quickly reported, “Young Master, I went to the Xing Clan to inquire and heard that Heavenly Sound Pavilion’s Whirlwind Ship from the Ziheng Star Field had already left the Great Primordial Chaos World last night.”

“Liu Qingyan did not enter the city, but the man called Yu Xuan came to the city yesterday.”

Kong Yu’s face instantly darkened. “Is the source trustworthy?”

The old man said, “Young Master, Lin’an City is ruled by the Xing Clan. When I took out the portrait of Yu Xuan, a Saint of the Xing Clan who was guarding the city gate yesterday recognized him right away.”

Kong Yu’s eyes flashed. “Is he alone? Is there an old man with him?”

The old man shook his head. “The Xing Clan Saint only said that Yu Xuan entered the city with a woman who was not Liu Qingyan.”

Kong Yu was taken by surprise, then he heaved a long sigh of relief. “It seems like I guessed right. A powerful character like Sword Emperor Brave Gale would not set foot into the Great Primordial Chaos World without a good reason...”

The movements of an Emperor would cause huge commotions. Even if they tried to hide their auras, they would still be noticed by mighty figures in the Great Primordial Chaos World.

“Let’s go, head to the Xing Clan. We must investigate this matter thoroughly. Once we are certain that Yu Xuan is by himself...”

Kong Yu’s eyes glinted with murderous intent, “I guarantee that he won’t be able to leave Lin’an City again!”

He did not dare to hold a grudge against Sword Emperor Brave Gale, and now that Liu Qingyan was not around, he could only direct all his anger on Yu Xuan.

At once, the group walked straight into Lin’an City.
