Chapter 1803: Nihil Homeland

It was like a large boulder had smashed into a bottomless lake. A great disturbance rocked the fourth realm, then slowly settled down. Everyone was on tenterhooks with the thousands of outsiders surging into the fourth realm.

Although the locals had studied Lu Qing’s defeat of hundreds of sequence experts over the past three years—thanks to fights that’d been broadcast to all corners of the world—their newfound confidence melted away when disaster was at hand. Their self assurance wasn’t rooted in much, so it disappeared as soon as it was put to the test.

At the same time, the outsiders that rushed into the fourth realm were also apprehensive. Lu Qing had delivered a mind-blowing shock to them, seeing as only powerhouses such as Jiang Kui or similar were able to defeat him. Furthermore, his strength had reached Jiang Kui’s level over the past two years. He’d won five hundred out of the seven hundred battles!

This rate of improvement was unprecedented, and another twenty thousand years had passed in the Land of Reincarnation in the last two years. How strong would the natives be now? While they couldn’t measure up to Lu Qing, surely there were many who were close or second only to him.

The Lu father and son duo had shoved too many rude awakenings at the outsiders.

All of that was set aside when an even more frightening matter took place. After entering the fourth realm, an unknown great dao began steadily eroding their personal dao! Rather than a destructive type of erosion, it was one of assimilation. The great dao they cultivated was still their great dao, but it no longer answered to them. Instead, it rose to the beck and call of a dao they’d never seen before—immortal dao!

Heretofore unfelt terror gripped them, sending waves of helplessness through the outsiders as they traveled throughout the fourth realm. It wasn’t the legendary Disintegrated Land, the Land of Reincarnation that they’d come to. They’d walked into a deep, shadowy forest in which there was no return!

The supremes were yet to project their wills inside since they needed time to prepare. Nearly a hundred thousand sequence experts had entered the land—they were the vanguard for the supremes.

But now, they were losing their dao and not even knowing how! They were slowly falling under the purview of immortal dao and some of the weaker-willed completely lost their heads. Whatever mission the supremes had set for them was flung to the back of their minds.

This was when an unexpected person stepped forward—Chu Xingran.

Chu Xingran appeared out of nowhere and introduced a place called Nihil Homeland. Anyone who entered it could prevent their personal dao from being eroded and devoured by immortal dao.

Although the chief worlds were rife with accusations that Chu Xingran had partnered with Lu Yun to kill countless outsiders, that he’d even killed primary bodies through their replicas, it could be forgiven since numerous Corpse Refiners were among the dead in previous events. It was well known that he nursed a grudge against the Corpse Refiners. And now, he was the savior of many who’d ventured into the fourth realm.

Hundreds of outsiders surged into Nihil Homeland when the news broke. Indeed, as advertised, immortal dao could not enter this world and outsiders could refrain from being assimilated after they absorbed enough energy from the homeland.

The caveat was that residents had to return after a certain period of time to absorb more energy. Otherwise, immortal dao would creep in again. It was precisely this drawback, however, that dispelled many doubts. After all, it would be highly suspicious if the problem was resolved after one visit to the homeland.

Soon enough, the outsiders placed full faith in their new sanctuary.

……

At the same time, in Fairylands.

“Why hasn’t your clan come?” Xie Tianxun urgently asked Moran Dongning. He’d sensed the arrival of those from the chief worlds. While he couldn’t see the outside world, he could perceive changes in the fourth realm.

“They won’t be coming.” Moran Dongning leaned against a small willow tree and held a book in her hands. She looked up from her reading and responded, “My brother has gone back home, so the Morans won’t be coming.”

“Then what about me?” Xie Tianxun asked dumbly. “And what about you? Don’t they care about you?”

Moran Dongning stood up lazily and stretched with a smile. “I’ve never crossed their mind. There’s a lot of people in the clan who don’t know I’m here.”

Xie Tianxun paused, dumbfounded. Moran Dongning was a peerless genius who possessed stunning beauty. She was famous in the chief worlds, so it should be a highly important matter that she was in the Land of Reincarnation. The uproar over her presence should be on the same level as Ao Qin and the Spacetime King coming to this land.

But true enough, Xie Tianxun hadn’t known that she was here.

“Have they abandoned you?” His mind jumped quickly from thought to thought.

“No, I abandoned them,” Moran Dongning smirked. “What would I go back for? Aren’t things good here?”

Xie Tianxun knitted his brows together without another word. He finally realized that he’d been had.

“Is your family or dao partner waiting for you in the chief worlds?” Moran Dongning’s smile deepened.

“The chief worlds… I haven’t heard that in a very long time. No, I don’t have any family,” Xie Tianxun murmured. “Nor do I have a dao partner. The only person with any relationship to me was the Nebula Supreme. We used each other, and he’s dead too.”

“Then what do you want to go back for? Lu Yun released you twenty thousand years ago. You can come and go as you wish, even back to the chief worlds if you want. No one cares,” Moran Dongning chuckled.

Xie Tianxun plopped on the ground and spat out, “I’ve accessed twenty-eight levels of sequence after living under this damned immortal dao sequence for twenty thousand years! It’s so much easier said than done to leave!”

He’d been nineteenth level sequence when he first arrived in the land; that’d still placed him above Ao Qin, Jiang Kui, and the Spacetime King. He was a genius not in terms of battle strength, but comprehension of dao, usage of combat arts, and mastery of sequence. Of course, he wasn’t any weaker than Jiang Kui when it came to battle. He was even a bit stronger.

That he’d be twenty-eighth level sequence after twenty thousand years was something he’d never dared imagine. For Xie Tianxun, it didn’t matter how many doors he opened. His ultimate goal was to break free of sequence.

His original plan was to attach himself to the Morans through his connection to Moran Dongning and cultivate dark dao. But since that avenue was cut off from him, he had nothing else in mind anymore.

“Then let’s not go back. Come on, we can back up Chu Xingran at Nihil Homeland,” Moran Dongning patted Xie Tianxun’s shoulder with a smile and waved a door into existence. Chu Xingran’s new world lay on the other side.
