Chapter 3068 Nameless Forbidden Zone
Ten years later, Lin Xun came out of seclusion. He was currently at the intermediate Creation Realm, and was only a hair’s breadth away from the advanced stage.
However, it was also at this hair’s breadth of distance that he encountered a bottleneck. It could not be resolved through refining Divine Rank laws nor closed-door practice, but instead through dampening and honing one’s dao.
In this regard, Lin Xun was not surprised. He was also very confident in his current battle prowess and believed that Immeasurable Eternals no longer posed a threat to him. When he had just broken through into the Creation Realm, he had been able to defeat Yingshan Ying who was an Immeasurable Eternal, let alone now that he was in the intermediate stage of the Creation Realm.
Lin Xun exited his abode and proceeded to leave the Fangchun Secret Realm without disturbing anyone, walking into Fortune Divine City.
Compared to ten years ago, the city had become incredibly prosperous. Figures thronged every place, and bustling noises filled the air. Lin Xun concealed his aura as he walked. No one noticed his presence, and he didn’t attract any attention along the way. He just kept walking and taking in the scenes.
Cultivators from various epochal civilizations could be spotted on the streets. As their races varied, these beings came in all kinds of fun appearances. Their cultivation levels also varied; there were mighty Eternals and at the same time there were fragile Saints.
However, no matter who they were, everyone was calm and relaxed, getting along without any strife. Such was the picture of peace and prosperity when everyone followed the rules.
Lin Xun also spotted cultivators from the Lin, Luo, Ji, and other clans, each attending to their own business. They all looked to be filled with ease and vigor, for everyone knew that no danger could occur to them in this city.
He became a little sentimental. How wonderful would it be if it was like this for beings everywhere...
“Huh?”
When he arrived at Silent Night Range, he saw a familiar figure. The person was dressed in outdated black armor, his expression was cold, and his frame was tall and slender. He was drinking alone in front of the palace in a leisurely and tranquil manner.
“Senior, when did you return?” Lin Xun came to the man and asked with a smile.
The other party was none other than Thirteen, who had used to serve the Eternal Night Divine Emperor! When Thirteen saw Lin Xun, he was stunned. A smile then spread across his lips and he got up. “Five years ago.”
He looked Lin Xun up and down and continued, “I’ve already heard about everything you've done. Her Lordship really made the right judgment about you.”
Lin Xun laughed. “You won’t be leaving again, I hope?”
Thirteen nodded. “Nowadays, Fortune Divine City is known as the number one cultivation paradise in the Fortune Dominion. The billions of beings see it as a sacred land, and even Eternal experts willingly choose to stay here. Unless you drive me out, I will never leave.”
He was not exaggerating. Fortune Divine City was protected by eight Divine Rank laws while having numerous primordial divine mountains distributed throughout. Practicing cultivation here benefited even Eternals, so who would want to leave?
Nowadays, all the young cultivators in the various epochal worlds set it their life goal to come to Fortune Divine City to practice!
Lin Xun was happy to hear Thirteen’s answer. “I’m glad that you'll be staying.”
With that, he took out a pot of wine and sat on the ground with Thirteen. The two of them chatted until twilight, and only then did Lin Xun take his leave. Watching as he disappeared into the distant sea of people, Thirteen murmured, “Master, if you were here, I know you would be so pleased...”
......
That night, a banquet kicked off. The attendees were Lin Wenjing, Luo Qingxun, Lin Fan, Su Bai, Tang Jiang, Gu Xi, and then A’hu, Toady, A’lu, Little Silver, and the other little ones...
Apart from them, there were also the Ancient Wasteland Domain sages like Mo Yang and Origin Sect elders like Xuan Feiling, as well as Xi and Ji Shanhai, Lin Zhong, Shi Yu. In short, Lin Xun's friends and relatives were all present.
The banquet was lively. Everyone was mingling, enjoying themselves as they enjoyed the food, liquor, and conversations in a harmonious atmosphere. It wasn’t until late at night that the banquet came to an end.
“In this trip to the Kunlun Dominion, both you and Xia Zhi must take care.” In the dark, only Zhao Jingxuan was by Lin Xun's side as she imparted gentle words. “I’ll be taking care of things at home, so rest assured.”
“Alright.” Lin Xun smiled.
This time, he had decided to bring all five dao bodies with him. Otherwise, if they weren't with him when he came across an opportunity to certify the Immeasurable Realm, their cultivation would fall behind.
Lin Xun would still leave his Will Dharma Form home, but in reality, there was no need to worry about any dangers occurring in the current Fortune Divine City.
In addition to the Divine Rank laws under Wushuang’s control, the city was also guarded by the River Map plus over twenty Eternals like Mo Yang. Who in existence could shake it? Even if another Heavenly Mandate Apostle showed up, the River Map would handle them!
When the night faded and dawn broke over the ever bustling Fortune Divine City, Lin Xun quietly departed with Xia Zhi, raising not the slightest wave in the process.
......
The Kunlun Dominion was of the four great dao dominions. Not only was it home to the Nine Secrets and Three Forbidden, but this dominion was also the birthplace of the Origin Furnace that had produced the renowned nine Emperor weapons.
The Kunlun Dominion was normally cold and empty because despite burying plenty of fortunes, it was only attractive to cultivators below the Emperor Stage. However, during a time like this when an epochal calamity was imminent, it became a battlefield for Eternal experts from everywhere.
The reason was that at these times, the Sea of Fate that was the origin power of this dominion would appear, presenting the opportunity to go to the All-Wonder Dominion. When the Great Silence Unlife Calamity threatened to befall at any moment, no Eternals could refuse such an opportunity!
Half a month later, at the Flying Immortal River, an entrance to the Kunlun Dominion, Lin Xun appeared out of thin air, and when he saw the river that seemed to be dropping straight from the sky, a nostalgic look surfaced in his eyes.
He had come to the Kunlun Dominion before during his youth. He had fought a group of opponents here. He had also met the violet-clad silhouette who was infatuated with his eldest senior brother in Peach Utopia Secret Realm, and had stumbled upon the Dao Ruleless Bell in the Imperial Dragon Mountain Secret Realm...
At Fengshan Platform, he had met his ninth senior brother Ge Yupu for the first time, and obtained the Grand Dao Yellow Court Classic and the Three Thousand Vicissitudes. It was also here that he had certified his Saint dao, realizing a miracle never before seen in history.
Later, he had returned to the Kunlun Dominion once again and barged into Dao Subduer Cliff, one of the three forbidden areas, where he had received the guidance and teachings of the Dao Ruleless Bell. Back then, it was also in front of the Dao Subduer Cliff that Xi had been taken away by Jun Fenglie...
All those things of the past had become indelible memories etched in Lin Xun’s mind, and now, he would once again visit the Kunlun Dominion! Taking a deep breath, he calmed his heart.
He was well aware that the Kunlun Dominion at the moment was a treacherous world. Many old Eternal monsters had traveled to and converged here over the years, among whom was no lack of Creation and Immeasurable menaces!
I wonder how Eldest Senior Brother and the others are doing...
Back then, Second Senior Brother Zhong Qiu had come to the Origin Sect to keep Lin Xun updated, saying after Eldest Senior Brother’s group had escaped from the Taiyu True Realm, they had headed toward the Kunlun Dominion.
Senior Sister Ruo Su and the other Fangchun Mountain disciples in the Spirit Sect had also followed Eldest Senior Brother. Only Fourth Senior Brother Ling Xuanzi had remained in the Dao Burial Ground in the depths of the Return Dominion.
While pondering on what he knew, Lin Xun traced up the Flying Immortal River. The source of this river was a spatial vortex. The water poured out from this vortex, and it was also the gateway to the Kunlun Dominion.
When Lin Xun arrived, he keenly noticed at once that an extremely powerful law power was enveloping the spatial vortex. It created a firm barrier that was unlike anything in the past.
Only Eternals can withstand this kind of law power barrier. It's curious, how did Eldest Brother and the others get in back then...
Lin Xun contemplated shortly before he walked straight over.
Rustle~
The law power barrier instantly erupted with a terrifying repelling force, but it was unable to stop Lin Xun one bit. In the blink of an eye, he disappeared into the vortex.
Kunlun Dominion.
In the vast and primitive expanse, Lin Xun emerged from thin air. In an instant, he perceived a completely different atmosphere from the past.
Between heaven and earth, there was a restrictive law capable of containing the power of the Eternal Stage. It meant Eternal experts could roam this world without having to worry about suffering backlash from the heavenly principles here.
In addition to that, there were new, strong energy pulses of vitality everywhere, rushing around in the air like invisible tides.
“It really has become different.” Lin Xun inhaled deeply and moved forward as he felt the change in heaven and earth.
He stayed vigilant all the way, but many areas and regions later, he still hadn't seen another soul and not even a single movement.
“Could it be...those experts who traveled to Kunlun Dominion have headed to the Nameless Forbidden Zone?” Lin Xun mused.
The Kunlun Dominion had Nine Secrets and Three Forbidden. The Nine Secrets referred to the nine secret realms. Examples were the Peach Utopia and the Imperial Dragon Mountain that Lin Xun had entered before. The Three Forbidden were the Fengshan Platform, the Dao Subduer Cliff, and the Nameless Forbidden Zone.
Among them, there was only the Nameless Forbidden Zone that Lin Xun had not been to. The reason was that it was the most dangerous zone out of the three, and back then his ability hadn't been strong enough to explore it.
Later on, he heard from the Dao Ruleless Bell that the Kunlun Dominion was regarded as the birthplace of the great dao, and there were rumors from ancient times that the ancestral energy of all daos could be found there.
The Nameless Forbidden Zone was the most mysterious area in the Kunlun Dominion. Rumor had it there was a broken road in the Nameless Forbidden Zone that interrupted the sky, the ground, and the almighty dao, breaking everything. It was also rumored that the Nameless Forbidden Zone was the origin of the Kunlun Dominion.
With that, the Dao Ruleless Bell had then told Lin Xun that his master, the Lord of Fangchun Mountain, had once gone to explore the Nameless Forbidden Zone!
All the information had given him a premonition even before he came here, that if there was a place where he could most likely find the Sea of Fate, then it would undoubtedly be the Nameless Forbidden Zone in the Kunlun Dominion!
