Chapter 2401 Heading to the Other Side of the Cosmos

Even Lin Xun couldn’t help but feel his heart tremble and his expression pale slightly at the sight.

So powerful!

However, he quickly composed himself and began to understand the reason behind Jun Fenglie’s terrifying strength.

Having learned about the classification of law power from Yuan Qingheng, Lin Xun could instantly recognize that the law power Jun Fenglie wielded far surpassed the eighth grade Earth Rank law power controlled by Heavenly Emperor Shi.

Furthermore, Heavenly Emperor Shi had been suppressed for many years by Zhong Qiu, leaving his vitality severely damaged. He was already weakened and in no shape to fight back.

It could be said that without Zhong Qiu’s years of suppression, Jun Fenglie might not have been able to kill him so effortlessly.

Of course, one fact was undeniable: Jun Fenglie was incredibly powerful! Even in a head-on battle, Heavenly Emperor Shi likely would be no match for him.

Zhong Qiu clearly saw this as well. Though his expression remained calm, a trace of solemnity emerged in his gaze as he looked at Jun Fenglie.

As someone still suffering from severe injuries, he knew he wouldn’t stand a chance against Jun Fenglie in his current state.

However, a man wielding such overwhelming power remained utterly respectful and deferential toward Xi. This indicated that Xi’s identity was clearly not ordinary.

“Miss, let’s depart.” After killing Heavenly Emperor Shi, Jun Fenglie spoke again. From beginning to end, he didn’t spare so much as a glance at Zhong Qiu or Big Yellow.

“Wait a moment.”

Xi turned to look at Zhong Qiu and Big Yellow. “I finally remembered. I came from the other side of the cosmos, a clan that stands at the pinnacle of all existence, immortal and eternal...”

She suddenly stopped, shook her head, and said softly, “Tell that kid Lin Xun that he doesn’t need to come looking for me. If fate allows it, we'll meet again.”

With those words, she turned and left.

Zhong Qiu stood up, silently watching Jun Fenglie, who was clad in green armor and carrying a silver spear, disappear with Xi. He stood there for a long time, saying nothing.

The scenes faded away.

It took Lin Xun a long while to come back to his senses.

“When did this happen?” he asked.

“Ten years ago,” Big Yellow replied.

“Then, does that mean Xi has recovered her memories?” Lin Xun murmured, deep in thought.

Big Yellow grunted, “Isn’t this obvious? If she hadn’t of her own will, would my master and I have just stood there watching her be taken away?”

Then it let out a low sigh and added with admiration, “I never imagined it. Miss Xi’s background is beyond anything I expected. Someone who’s already stepped into immortality actually called himself her subordinate and treated her with such reverence. This is the first time I’ve seen something like that. It really opened my eyes.”

Lin Xun nodded. “The law power Jun Fenglie controls is most likely above Heaven Rank. In the Eternal True Realm, a clan capable of nurturing someone like him must be a supreme existence even among the Immortal Imperial Clans. You’re not the only one surprised. I also never imagined Xi’s origins would be so extraordinary either.”

Big Yellow gave him a surprised look. “You seem to know quite a bit about the other side of the cosmos.”

Lin Xun briefly recounted his encounter with Yuan Qingheng, and then he asked, “Where is Second Senior Brother now? Where did he go?”

At the mention of Zhong Qiu, Big Yellow’s ears drooped and the dog sighed deeply. “Master...left.”

“He’s gone?”

Lin Xun was taken aback. “Where to?”

“Where else? Obviously to the other side of the cosmos,” Big Yellow said. “My master has sat in the Ancient Nebula Underworld for countless years. If not waiting on the Nirvana of Transcendence, he would have left long ago. Now that Heavenly Emperor Shi is dead, and the taboo law power veiling the starry sky is nothing but decoration, there’s no reason for him to remain. If he doesn’t leave now, then when?”

Lin Xun asked, “Does that mean Second Senior Brother is going to venture into the Great Thousand Battle Domain as well? No, Second Senior Brother’s cultivation might have already touched the threshold of immortality. For him, entering the Eternal True Realm won’t be difficult...”

At this point, he turned to Big Yellow and asked, “What about you? What do you plan to do?”

Big Yellow lowered its voice, a note of helplessness in it. “Master wants me to remain in the Ancient Nebula Underworld. He said the other side of the cosmos isn’t some paradise, but more like a land of peril. If I follow him there, it would bring more harm than good.”

Lin Xun thought for a moment and nodded, “Second Senior Brother arranged that for your own good. Once he’s established himself, he’ll definitely return.”

Big Yellow rolled its eyes. “Do I need a kid to console me?”

Then, it suddenly raised a paw and tossed over a strange bronze box engraved with swirling cloud patterns. “This is the law power of the Nirvana of Transcendence. Master told me to return it to you.”

Lin Xun was stunned for a moment then caught it solemnly. He understood that Big Yellow had stayed behind just to wait for him.

“Let’s go, the Kunlun Dominion has nothing worth lingering for,” Big Yellow grumbled.

Lin Xun nodded.

At that moment, the Dao Ruleless Bell took the lead, guiding Lin Xun and Big Yellow out of this perilous place.

However, just as they were about to depart, Dao Ruleless Bell suddenly spoke up. It had decided to stay behind and watch over the land.

It was originally born in the Kunlun Dominion, so it made sense for it to choose to return to its roots.

Lin Xun did not try to stop it.

“Little friend, did you know that both the Kunlun Dominion and Return Dominion had both suffered from an immense catastrophe a long time ago?” Before they parted, Dao Ruleless Bell spoke again.

“I’ve heard some things.” Lin Xun replied with a nod.

“It was during that calamity that the Treasure Refining Furnace was destroyed and the Nameless Forbidden Area emerged. Even the Dao Subduer Cliff underwent a change and the power of all Heavenly Daos shattered.”

Dao Ruleless Bell’s voice turned solemn. “Before we part ways, I have a presumptuous request. I hope that one day, you can uncover the truth behind that ancient catastrophe.”

Lin Xun nodded.

He too wanted to know what kind of disaster had struck the Ancient Nebula Road a long time ago, causing the collapse of its origin law power and even the loss of the foundations of the Kunlun Dominion and Return Dominion.

What exactly had happened back then?

The only thing that Lin Xun was certain of was that the collapse of the starry sky’s origin law power led to the Ancient Nebula Road’s decline, and its ranking among the Great Thousand Worlds plummeted!

......

One day later.

The Ancient Nebula Road, in the vast starry skies of the universe.

The figures of Lin Xun and Big Yellow emerged one after another.

“The taboo law power has indeed lost control and is no longer a threat...” Lin Xun observed immediately.

The taboo law power that had once blanketed the world had gone silent, like a weapon stripped of its master.

“Heavenly Emperor Shi is dead, but the Luo Clan from the other side of the cosmos hasn’t sent anyone in ten years. In my opinion, the loss of two key figures in succession must have stirred alarm within the Luo Clan.”

“Or perhaps something urgent has happened on the Luo Clan’s side. They probably can’t spare anyone to come here for now.”

After all, it had been ten years.

The death of Heavenly Emperor Shi should have provoked a furious response. Why would they remain silent?

The fact they hadn’t sent anyone to this day could only suggest that something must have happened!

Lin Xun gave a nod.

“Are you really planning to set off immediately to the other side of the cosmos?” Big Yellow couldn’t help asking.

Along the way, it had heard Lin Xun mention his plan.

“Yes.” Lin Xun nodded again, his expression calm and resolute.

Not long ago, the Black Water Dao Body had been refining and analyzing the bronze box left by Mister Lu. Within the layers of heavy seals, it uncovered a line of deeply hidden words:

“Your mother has regained her memory and chosen to return home. But for the sake of your safety, she asks that you do not seek her until this box is opened again.”

The handwriting, vigorous and bold, was clearly that of Mister Lu.

It was this message that made Lin Xun firmly decide to go to the other side of the cosmos.

Even though Mister Lu had asked him not to search for her prematurely, there was no telling how long it would take him to arrive once the box was opened.

After all, standing between this world and the other side of the cosmos was a chasm, a heavenly barrier known as the Great Thousand Battle Domain!

Lin Xun planned to continue studying and deciphering the seals on the bronze box during his journey to the other side of the cosmos. It would be ideal if he could unlock it before arriving.

Even if he couldn’t, he wasn’t worried.

After all, he had already understood that the Eternal True Realm was boundlessly vast, far beyond imagination, and the Luo Clan was just one of the many Immortal Imperial Clans residing there.

Lin Xun didn’t believe they would be able to locate him so easily once he arrived on the other side of the cosmos.

In truth, he had another speculation. It was likely that Mister Lu and his mother, Luo Qingxun, had no idea that he had already become a fifth realm supreme Emperor!

Moreover, over the past few years, he had cultivated in seclusion in the lower world, refining his foundation and cultivation to the limit. Now, he was just one step away from breaking into the sixth realm Emperor Stage.

“Well, since your mind is made up, I won’t try to dissuade you any further. But you have to be careful. That is a land of immortality and eternity. It’s said to have existed thousands of times longer than the Ancient Nebula Road. It is an unfathomable place that is said to have survived the collapse of countless eras, and within it are even true Eternal Divine Clans.”

“Of course.” Lin Xun smiled.

He had heard similar things from Yuan Qingheng. In the Eternal True Realm, the Eternal Divine Clans stood at the pinnacle of all existence, wielding Divine Rank law power and commanding unimaginable strength.

“Hmph, I know your nature. Wherever you go, blood is bound to flow. But that’s what cultivation is—tempering through battle. Everything you’ve achieved today is born of countless battles and blood-soaked trials.” Big Yellow said, “I just hope that you don’t be too stubborn. If things are too difficult, there’s no shame in retreating and coming back to the Ancient Nebula Road.”

Lin Xun nodded with a smile.

Big Yellow, feeling it had said too much, waved its paw dismissively. “Alright, off you go.”

It turned around and walked away—decisive and without any hesitation.

“Big Yellow.”

Lin Xun called after the dog, “If someone bullies you, don’t be stubborn. Just hide your tail and wait. I’ll come back and settle the score for you.”

Big Yellow barked, “Go, get lost already!”

Laughing, Lin Xun turned and left.

That day.

Big Yellow returned to the Ancient Nebula Underworld. In silence, it took its master Zhong Qiu’s place, watching over and guarding Copper Sparrow House.

Meanwhile, Lin Xun set off on a journey to the other side of the cosmos!
