Supreme Emptiness

Chapter 2078: Chapter 2122: Dustless Realm

Nanqian... His Majesty?

The four Second Calamity Realm Sages exchanged glances, each seeing the suspicion in the other’s eyes.

The Emperor from Nanqian State?

How could he possibly arrive at their Small World?

In their astonishment, golden light shimmered on the chest of the Big Black Dog, and a small token imbued with a trace of pressure from the Daqian Divine Kingdom floated into view.

The front was inscribed with the words "National Guardian Dog Heavenly Battle," while the back bore an ancient and mysterious seal.

On it were eight very blurred characters that, at a glance, caused slight pain to the eyes.

The four Sages’ faces changed drastically.

"Daqian Imperial Jade Seal Great Seal?"

"National Guardian Dog... It’s His Majesty Nanqian’s Spiritual Pet, Heavenly Battle!"

Bzz—

A harsh ringing sounded from the void behind the Big Black Dog, making it anxious.

Not wanting to be buried alongside Jiang Fan, it hurriedly bit open the world barrier, leaving the Sages uncertain.

Should they stop it or not?

Then, a soothing female voice echoed from the world, refreshing everyone who heard it.

"His Majesty Nanqian arrives, bringing glory to the Dustless Realm."

With the words spoken, the world barrier parted on its own, creating a cloud-covered stairway leading directly to the Big Black Dog.

The four Second Calamity Realm Sages quickly retreated respectfully.

Their expressions showed extreme reverence.

The Big Black Dog hesitated for a moment, but hearing the roaring commotion behind it, it hurriedly stepped onto the cloud stairway, entering the Dustless Realm.

Upon barely stepping inside, a blue long sword, cloaked in terrifying destructive power, pierced through the heavens.

The world barrier of the Dustless Realm seemed paper-thin before it, being pierced instantly.

Jiang Fan felt as though his body was being torn apart, a chilling sensation of death left his body rigid.

His heart raced wildly.

He was secretly shocked, for the power of that strike resembled the cross-world spear of the Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis!

Even the ordinary Three Calamities Realm might not fully withstand it.

At the critical moment, Jiang Fan fiercely bit his tongue, the pain allowing him to escape his stiffness.

Without hesitation, he activated the Magic Artifact he had long prepared in his sleeve.

Heart of Ten Thousand Earths!

Whoosh!

His body vanished into thin air.

Almost as soon as he disappeared, the long sword pierced through where he had been.

With the strike missing, the long sword locked onto Jiang Fan’s position again, thrusting suddenly.

Jiang Fan grasped the Heart of Ten Thousand Earths, transforming into earthen clay and slowly coagulating into form.

Painful stabs spread from his back; turning to look, he saw his back riddled with holes, filled with sword punctures.

This was due to his timely escape; had he been any later, he would’ve likely been beheaded.

The Big Black Dog wasn’t spared either.

Its backside was jabbed into a beehive, bleeding profusely.

"Hss~ Ow~" The Big Black Dog rolled on the ground in pain, both hind legs clutching its rear, cursing loudly:

"You damn woman, you’d better not fall into my paws, Dog Lord!"

"Otherwise, I’ll do this and that and then this to you!"

It gestured rudely with its front paws, speaking fiercely.

Jiang Fan deployed the Second Domain, giving both a quick healing, only to find the injuries contained Power of Laws, rendering the Domain ineffective.

He was also a bit annoyed: "Stupid woman, hitting so hard!"

However, he was more intrigued by the Big Black Dog’s earlier rambling.

"You dead dog, addressing me as His Majesty Nanqian, aren’t you afraid of causing trouble?" Jiang Fan frowned deeply.

Who knows how the Dustless Realm’s strong ones view His Majesty Nanqian?

He knew even less what the consequences would be if his impersonation failed.

The Big Black Dog grinned: "What should I be afraid of?"

"The Dustless Realm has long yearned to join our Nanqian."

Oh?

Jiang Fan showed astonishment.

The Big Black Dog, uncaring as always, said: "The Dark Tide is near; the creatures of medium and small worlds face certain death without relying on Great Worlds."

Jiang Fan pondered, recalling the mention from Empress Beixue.

For medium and small worlds to endure the Dark Tide, one way was to gather enough World Embryos.

Now it seemed Nanqian had opened a new door to medium and small worlds.

Welcoming creatures from medium and small worlds.

Jiang Fan felt tempted.

Gathering enough World Embryos was nearly impossible without even one Three Calamities Realm.

"Your Nanqian wouldn’t just shelter every creature from medium and small worlds, would it?" Jiang Fan asked.

There’s no such thing as a freebie in this world, is there?

In the Hundred Realms of All Heavens, no world operates a charity, do they?

The Big Black Dog said: "Of course not! Even as large as we are, Nanqian cannot accommodate all creatures from dozens of medium and small worlds."

"We only accept strong ones above the Divinity Transformation Realm."

Its three eyes turning slightly, the Big Black Dog coaxed: "Master, you could also lead Central Earth to Nanqian."

"I’ll speak on your behalf, making an exception for Central Earth so Nascent Soul Realm can join Nanqian."

Jiang Fan calmed the turmoil in his heart, shook his head, and said: "No need."

"If sacrificing Central Earth’s masses is the path to seek self-survival, what’s the point of Central Earth’s Three Great Wars?"

"For millennia, generations have fought and sacrificed themselves, but for what?"

The Big Black Dog fell silent.

Its three eyes looked at Jiang Fan slightly stunned, muttering softly:

"Though this man is cunning and reprehensible, he truly cares for the creatures of Central Earth."

"Alright, once I’m free, I’ll spare him a little life!"

Shhr—

The heavens suddenly shook, and a crack in the void spread rapidly.

Jiang Fan glanced at it, casually activating the Heart of Ten Thousand Earths.

In an instant, he appeared on the other side of the Dustless Realm.

Within this world, even the Sages of Three Calamities Realm could do nothing to him, let alone just one sword?

He examined the Dustless Realm, realizing it was remarkably intact even after Ancient Dark Creatures invaded.

Magnificent mountains and rivers, humanity unharmed.

The two consecutive locations showed no signs of destruction by Ancient Dark Creatures.

He initially thought just two places hadn’t faced the arrival of Ancient Dark Creatures.

Yet in the few instantaneous movements pursued by the long sword, everywhere he went was the same.

The Big Black Dog noticed something unusual too:

"Huh? This Dustless Realm has something; could it be that, like your Central Earth, it also fought off the Ancient Giant invasion by itself?"

Jiang Fan was amazed.

This neighboring world, just days away from Central Earth, is also so formidable?

It shouldn’t be.

Central Earth repelled the Ancient Giant invasion with countless acts of self-sacrifice.

Could it be that the Dustless Realm produced a great number of similar individuals?

With thoughts swirling, just before the sword struck, Jiang Fan activated the Heart of Ten Thousand Earths.

Listening to the heartbeat of the world, he sensed the entire Dustless Realm.

To his surprise, he discovered that the northernmost part of the Dustless Realm had a circular area with no heartbeat at all.

In principle, mountains, rivers, and vegetation should have unique heartbeats.

Even if that area were devoid of life, there should still be rocks and earth, right?

His eyes flashing slightly, Jiang Fan approached the nearest heartbeat to the circular area.

In the next moment.

He reformed from the earth and found himself in a world of ice and snow.

The wind howled, snowflakes danced tumultuously.

An extreme chill that even the Divinity Transformation Realm finds cold spread forth.

This could be considered the forbidden zone of this world.

Strangely, amidst the flying snow, life was extinct here.

Beyond an ice valley up ahead was an immeasurable paradise.

Inside, Spiritual Energy was plentiful, rivaling the Southern Heavenly Realm, with Heaven and Earth Spiritual Objects thriving wildly.

Most peculiar of all, amidst the Cloud Sea, a colossal warship’s shadow faintly connected the heavens and the earth.
