Chapter 2393 The Secrets of the Eternal True Realm

After a moment of thought, Yuan Qingheng flipped her hand, revealing a slender, fair palm.

A delicate silver shuttle emerged. Its edges were restrained, but both ends gleamed with a sword-like sharpness. Strange inscriptions coiled along its surface like twisting earthworms.

As the silver shuttle floated into view, strands of immortal aura dispersed into a mist of shimmering radiance—mysterious and ethereal.

Lin Xun’s pupils contracted sharply. Just from a single glance, the aura exuding from the treasure made him feel a chilling, lethal threat!

“This is a replica of our clan’s immortal artifact. It’s called the Cosmic Light Flying Shuttle. Imbued with the origin power of immortal law, it not only allows one to descend upon this world, but also makes traversing to other realms and planes as easy as breathing.”

Noticing the subtle shift in Lin Xun’s expression, Yuan Qingheng couldn’t help but smile with a hint of pride. “The Ancient Nebula Road is merely one of the Great Thousand Worlds. For countless years, it has been shrouded by the eighth grade Earth-Rank lightning law controlled by the Luo Clan. But if I wish to come here, even that can’t stop me.”

Lin Xun gleaned many details from her comments.

The Ancient Nebula Road was just one of the Great Thousand Worlds!

Furthermore, the taboo law power wielded by the Luo Clan was known as the lightning law, an eighth grade power of the Earth Rank!

This revelation made Lin Xun realize that the law and order born from heaven and earth were divided into various ranks and grades.

“Miss, could you tell me about the Great Thousand Worlds?” Lin Xun asked.

Yuan Qingheng frowned. “You sure ask a lot of questions.”

Lin Xun chuckled, “It’s not every day I meet a distinguished figure from the other side of the cosmos, so I can’t help being curious. But don’t worry, it’s just a casual chat. Who knows...maybe we’ll become friends.”

A playful glint flashed in Yuan Qingheng’s beautiful eyes as she sneered, “Friends? You’re bold.”

“This has nothing to do with boldness.” Lin Xun replied with a smile.

He could already tell that Yuan Qingheng was no ordinary person. Even on the other side of the cosmos, her identity must be extraordinary.

Because of this, Lin Xun had no intention of letting her leave so easily. He was very curious about the world on the other side of the cosmos.

“Enough nonsense. I’ll only answer three more questions,” Yuan Qingheng said bluntly.

Lin Xun thought for a moment, then nodded in agreement.

The first question was about the Great Thousand Worlds.

Yuan Qingheng didn’t seem surprised and began explaining calmly.

In the eyes of Yuan Qingheng and other cultivators from the other side of the cosmos, their homeland was known as the Eternal True Realm, a place hailed as the land of eternity and immortality.

Outside the Eternal True Realm stretched a vast expanse of starry sky and countless cosmic planes. These myriad realms were collectively known as the Great Thousand Worlds.

The Ancient Nebula Road was merely one among them.

According to Yuan Qingheng, if the Great Thousand Worlds were ranked by the strength of their forces, the Ancient Nebula Road could barely secure a spot in the top one hundred.

After learning this, Lin Xun’s heart stirred. He realized how narrow his understanding had been.

The vast Ancient Nebula Road was ranked only within the top hundred among the Great Thousand Worlds.

The Eternal True Realm that they called the other side of the cosmos was a place that stood supreme over the Great Thousand Worlds!

“Long ago, the Ancient Nebula Road gave birth to countless mighty figures who shook the cosmos. During what you call the beginning of the primeval era, it was ranked among the top three of the Great Thousand Worlds, and it even claimed first place more than once.”

Yuan Qingheng continued, “But then, a calamity struck the origin law power of the Ancient Nebula Road, causing its foundation to collapse and fall into ruin. From that moment on, the Ancestor Stage became the ultimate limit of the cultivation path in this world and the legacy of the path of immortality ceased to exist.”

“What kind of calamity?” Lin Xun’s brows furrowed.

A cunning glint flashed in Yuan Qingheng’s eyes. “Is that your second question?”

Lin Xun realized this woman had no intention of answering honestly. After a brief pause, he said, “That kind of thing won’t be a secret. I’ll find out eventually.”

He then asked his second question: “How is origin law power divided into grades?”

Yuan Qingheng was stunned for a moment, and then realization dawned on her. “You’re a supreme Emperor, but you still don’t know how the law power of heaven and earth are classified? Has Ancient Nebula Road...really fallen to such a state?”

Lin Xun met her gaze without flinching. “Even if it’s fallen, aren’t you still trapped here?”

Yuan Qingheng snorted coldly, “I simply don’t want to waste the cards in my hand.”

As she spoke, she tossed a jade slip to Lin Xun. “This records the division of the origin law power.”

Lin Xun quickly glanced at the jade slip, and a surge of emotions stirred in his heart.

It turned out that in the Eternal True Realm, the understanding of law power had reached an almost incomprehensible level, and a complete classification system had been established.

The power of law and order was born from the origin of primal chaos. It was condensed from the origin great dao, the force that maintained the operation of a world and could be considered the origin law of the world.

This power was divided into three ranks and nine grades according to its strength.

The three ranks were: Earth, Heaven and Divine.

Each rank was further divided into nine grades.

Generally speaking, the power of the Earth Rank was already formidable. In the Eternal True Realm, many immortal imperial clans controlled more than one type of Earth Rank power.

For example, the taboo law power currently enveloping the Ancient Nebula Road was an eighth grade Earth Rank lightning law controlled by the Luo Clan from the other side of the cosmos.

As for the Heaven Rank, it was considered the peak, generally controlled only by the most powerful giants.

The Divine Rank law power was incredibly rare.

Even in the Eternal True Realm, only the Eternal Divine Clans who stood at the very pinnacle of existence and reigned over all other clans wielded such power.

After learning this, Lin Xun was more bewildered.

The law power controlled by the Luo Clan was only at the eighth grade of the Earth Rank, yet it could already enshroud the Ancient Nebula Road and pose a threat to all living beings in the world.

How terrifying must a Heaven Rank law power be?

And a Divine Rank law power...just how incredible was it?

And what about the Eternal Divine Clans? What kind of terrifying existence were they?!

The only thing Lin Xun was certain of was that Immortal Imperial Clans were already colossi capable of ruling over the Ancient Nebula Road.

As for the Eternal Divine Clans, even the Immortal Imperial Clans likely had to look up to them!

“Eternal True Realm, the Great Thousand Worlds, the law power of the three ranks and nine grades... It seems the other side of the cosmos is far vaster and more powerful than I ever imagined...” Lin Xun sighed inwardly.

Just then, Yuan Qingheng suddenly asked, “I’m curious...how did you manage to ascend to the Supreme Emperor Stage? After all, without the blessing of the origin law power of this starry sky, it’s said that the Ancient Nebula Road should no longer be able to produce a supreme Emperor.”

“You want to know? Sure, just answer a few more of my questions and I’ll tell you,” Lin Xun replied with a smile.

Yuan Qingheng was stunned for a moment, then let out a soft chuckle, “Even if you refuse to tell me, I’ll still find out eventually.”

You want to bargain with me?

No way!

Lin Xun didn’t care and simply asked his third question directly, “What is the status of the Luo Clan in the Eternal True Realm?”

Yuan Qingheng thought for a moment before replying, “In the eyes of ordinary forces, the Luo Clan from the other side of the cosmos is like a towering giant. The power under their command spans across universes. They are beyond reach.

“If we compare them to other Immortal Imperial Clans, they would be considered...mid-tier. Not among the weakest, but not among the strongest either. They can’t compare to top-tier clans, but the average Immortal Imperial Clans certainly can’t compare to them.”

At this point, a thought seemed to surface in Yuan Qingheng’s mind. She added, “In truth, the Luo Clan once stood at the very peak. They were considered the strongest among the Immortal Imperial Clans, their power unmatched. But everything changed with the disappearance of the Omega Lord. Since then, the clan has steadily declined.”

She gave Lin Xun a meaningful look, “Of course, to your Ancient Nebula Road, a force like the Luo Clan is no different from the gods above.”

Lin Xun remained calm and unshaken. “And how do they compare to the Yuan Clan behind you?”

Yuan Qingheng’s moist lips curved into a faint smile. “That’s your fourth question, but I suppose I’ll tell you. In the past, the Luo Clan might have been able to compete with my Yuan Clan, but now...there’s no point in comparing them anymore.”

Lin Xun suddenly realized that the Immortal Imperial Yuan Clan must be one of the most powerful, top-tier forces among all Immortal Imperial Clans.

Otherwise, Yuan Qingheng would not have spoken with such certainty.

It was no wonder she carried herself with such pride and confidence from the very beginning. Even in her predicament, her pride never wavered.

Lin Xun suddenly asked, “Do you know the immortal clans behind the treasures, the Spear of Many Changes, Axe of Creation, God Executing Sword, and the World Destroying Halberd?”[1]

Back when he was in Nirvana of Transcendence, before becoming an Emperor, during the great tribulation, three men and one woman descended from the boundless starry sky and each wielded supreme, earth-shaking power.

It was the manifestation of the Lord of Fangchun Mountain’s will that defeated the four and revealed to Lin Xun that they were backed by four terrifying immortal clans.

Yuan Qingheng’s eyes narrowed imperceptibly, as if genuinely surprised. “You actually know about four who command Heaven-rank law...”

But then she seemed to come to her senses and sneered, “You have too many questions. This is already the fifth one.”

Lin Xun laughed, “I can tell that those four immortal clans are extremely powerful. Even you seem reluctant to speak arrogantly about them.”

“You think I’ll fall for such a childish provocation?” Yuan Qingheng glared at Lin Xun.

Lin Xun said calmly, “But at least, I already know that the four immortal clans command Heaven Rank law power, and based on what you’ve said, their foundations must surpass even that of the Luo Clan, and perhaps even your Yuan Clan.”

“Keep provoking me and see if I will say another word to you.”

Yuan Qingheng folded her arms, her starlike eyes full of disdain, as if saying:

Nice try, your little tricks won’t work on me

Lin Xun let out a sigh, “Forget it, since Miss is so cautious and guarded, let’s end our conversation here. Hand over the origin root spirits of the Sacred Cangwu Tree, and I’ll let you go.”

1. Reason why we didn’t use Immortal Imperial Clan here is because the name is actually subtly different, we have not had an explanation yet about what the difference is. ☜
