The sudden turn of events startled everyone present.

Especially the Void Venerate, whose somber expression was so dark it seemed like it could drip water.

The Void Realm was his territory, isolated from all external perceptions. In theory, no one should have been able to find it, let alone enter it.

The exterior of the Void Realm was more fragile than its interior. To break through the Void Realm from the outside, one’s Cultivation Level had to be at least at the level of the One Qi Venerable, which was the late stage of Passing Tribulation.

He sensed the imprints flickering in the palms of the Fu Ling sisters and understood.

Someone had left a mark on these two sisters and had followed it to find him.

Although he didn’t know what the Twin River was, or what the relationship between the two sisters and the Twin River was, since they had come to the Void Realm, they would leave their lives here!

Anyone who entered the Void Realm might know the capabilities of his Dao Fruit Outline, and absolutely could not be allowed to leave!

Once the capabilities of the Dao Fruit Outline were leaked, the opponent would have corresponding countermeasures, and the advantage of his Dao Fruit Outline would be greatly diminished in the future.

No matter whether this skinny bamboo pole was at the late stage of Passing Tribulation or at the peak, or even a Semi-Immortal, he was confident he could keep them here!

"Twin River?" When Lu Yang heard the familiar term, he asked Fairy Eternity, "Is it the Twin River that you created, which, if drunk, would result in the birth of twins?"

"Were the Fu Ling sisters born from drinking the water of the Twin River?"

Lu Yang remembered what the Fu Ling sisters had mentioned: their mother had gone to the ancient forest temple to seek a child from a master known as Master Yuxin. The process of seeking the child was unknown, but eventually, the Fu Ling sisters were born.

So, was it Master Yuxin who gave the mother of the Fu Ling sisters the water from the Twin River to drink?

"If you put it that way, it’s really possible," Fairy Eternity exclaimed, examining the Fu Ling sisters carefully and seeing nothing out of the ordinary.

"Fairy, can’t you tell if these sisters are the products of the Twin River?"

Fairy Eternity rolled her eyes, "Who would be able to tell that? It’s not like I gave birth to them."

"But if these two girls really have something to do with the Twin River, it is possible to find the river by following them."

"How do we find it?"

"That’s actually quite simple," the Fairy said. "With a minor magic skill of tracing origins, I can find it. However, only I can use this method; that skinny bamboo pole that just popped up definitely can’t."

"Then what’s his method?" Lu Yang stealthily glanced at the two opposing figures in the sky, both overconfident in their own strength—unlikely to be settled by a mere exchange of words.

"The creatures born from the Mother-child River and the Twin River have a trait; when they die, their Soul transforms into the energy of nothingness and returns to the river, becoming part of the river, which is commonly said as ’falling leaves return to their roots.’

"However, there is a precondition that these creatures must die peacefully."

"Why is there such a precondition?" Lu Yang didn’t understand.

"People are born without any concept of good or evil, and the Mother-child River and the Twin River must also maintain absolute purity," said the Fairy. "If they die with regrets or resentment, it would contaminate the river, thereby affecting creatures born later. Hence, I added such a limitation."

"I see," Lu Yang nodded, realizing that Fairy Eternity had put much thought into creating the two rivers.

"This skinny bamboo pole probably wants the two girls to die peacefully in their sleep, and when that happens, their true Spirits will return to the Twin River."

"However, he only left an imprint and hadn’t prepared to lull the girls into a dream before being dragged into the Void Realm together by this boy called Void."

Fairy Eternity’s guess was correct; seeing the intrusion of outsiders, Void Venerate was filled with a killing intent, and the skinny bamboo pole wasn’t any better off.

He had put in an unknown amount of effort to find the Twin River.

After he woke up, he heard about Master Yuxin’s ability to help people have children and realized that Master Yuxin knew the location of the Twin River.

Unfortunately, by that time, Master Yuxin had already passed away of old age, making it impossible to begin the search. He could only settle for the next best thing—finding the latest Twin River twins, the Fu Ling sisters.

If he killed the sisters directly, their true Spirits would harbor resentment and wouldn’t return to the Twin River.

But he couldn’t wait a hundred years for the sisters to die of old age. Moreover, as Twin River twins, they had great fortune on their side, making it difficult to kill them easily. Therefore, he could only make the sisters die in their dreams.

He had found the two sisters and was ready to make them spend a lifetime in their dreams tonight, sleeping to death within.

Unexpectedly, before evening came, this situation arose.

This was the Immortal Artifact of the legends, the Twin River created by Immortals, an ancient supreme treasure crafted by the Yingtian Immortal. Its value rivaled that of other Immortal Artifacts, embodying the Yingtian Immortal’s supreme Divine Ability and the essence of heaven and earth.

Whoever blocked his acquisition of the Twin River was his sworn enemy, harboring a vendetta as deep as the sea of blood!

"I will take these two away," the tall, thin man said coldly, not paying any attention to the Void Venerate.

The Void Venerate was angered by the tall, thin man’s commanding tone: "Fellow Daoist, you really don’t take me seriously!"

"So, will you let them go or not?" The tall, thin man showed no mercy to those who stood in the way of his destiny.

"What if I say no?"

"Then we will see the truth through combat!"

Both men had their own pride and neither was willing to back down.

Moreover, the Void Venerate had never intended to let the other party leave alive.

"Ten Thousand Creations!" With a thought from the Void Venerate, a plethora of magic artifacts appeared, nearly a hundred kinds, and each one was steeped in deadly poison, incurable, guaranteeing death upon the slightest contact!

"Void Collapse!"

The space beneath the tall, thin man’s feet twisted, like a swamp impossible to escape. Facing various magic artifacts, he had no place to dodge!

The Void Realm was the domain of the Void Venerate, and he could control it at will!

Facing the deadly attacks that cut off any retreat, the tall, thin man’s brows furrowed—he hadn’t expected the opponent to be capable of creating such void machinations.

He whispered softly, "Enter Dream."

As the words "Enter Dream" were spoken, the entire Void Realm fell into a hazy state that seemed both illusionary and real, as if everything was false, yet also genuine.

Everyone seemed to be covered with a veil that slowed their thoughts.

Even the One Qi Venerable was slightly affected, but he quickly regained his senses.

Only two people in the room were unaffected, one was the Void Venerate and the other was Lu Yang.

"Fairy, what’s happening?"

Fairy Eternity showed a grin of interest: "This is getting interesting. It seems that the Dao Fruit Outline of this tall, thin man is related to dreams, and now he has merged the Void Realm with dreams. All of you are both in a dream and in reality."

"If this were the outside world, he could merely pull everyone into a dream, but this is the Void Realm, not the real world. His Dao Fruit Outline can thus exert further influence, allowing the dream to directly affect reality. He is not far from reaching the realm of ’Turning the Void into Reality.’"

"But that’s not the most interesting part. Do you know what is?"

"What is it?"

"The Dao Fruit Outlines of these two people—one who creates the Void Realm and one who masters dreams—both belong to the lineage of ’Turning the Void into Reality,’ and no Immortals have ever arisen from this lineage."

"Do you remember why the Qilin Immortal fought a great battle with Lianyi and Xiao Ling?"

Lu Yang’s pupils dilated, realizing the implications of Fairy Eternity’s words: "You’re saying that only one of them can become an Immortal?"

"Correct, the struggle for ascension is a fight to the death!"

The One Qi Venerable was a step slower but also realized he was in a dream, causing his heart to skip a beat.

He didn’t know what the struggle to become an Immortal entailed or that these two were in a life-and-death situation, but he had a guess about the identity of the tall, thin man.

"Dreamscape... the Dao Fruit Outline of dreams, could it be that he is the Nightmare Supreme?!"

The Nightmare Supreme, a figure from the late stages of the Great Qian, wielded the Dao Fruit Outline of dreams, once contended for supremacy with the first Emperor Yu, but ultimately lost.
