Chapter 101: You are the endless distant place

【"Who... is she?"】

【The dazzling purple star caused a sudden change throughout the Forbidden Zone.】

【You have gained new life thanks to her transformation.】

【You and Ye Xue thought you were invincible at your level, but the person before you overwhelms you, currently undergoing a heaven-shaking transformation.】

【And you and Ye Xue are merely witnesses.】

【Purple starlight undulated as she stepped slowly out of it.】

【She wore an imperial crown, a purple palace robe dragging starlight, like a flowing star river; her every move exuded supreme authority.】

【Such an aura, you have felt it only on the Twelve Heavenly Demons.】

【You finally saw her face clearly.】

【A familiar feeling welled up in his heart, causing Lin Chuan's main consciousness to sway.】

【Sister!】

【Sister Lin Yangyang has finally appeared!】

【He never expected that his first encounter with his sister in reincarnation would be like this; in the end, he was still overwhelmed.】

【The woman in the purple starlight gazed down at you and Ye Xue, and said lightly: "I have seized the opportunity; the Forbidden Zone will fall. If you two Daoist friends don't disdain it, you may follow me away."】

【You and Ye Xue showed expressions of surprise.】

【Such a formidable stranger, perhaps a past rival, yet treats you two with such tolerance.】

【Lin Chuan couldn't help but ponder.】

【According to the rule that the subconscious influences the dream-reincarnation body, Sister Lin Yangyang surely has recognized him.】

【Therefore her reincarnated form shows kindness.】

【If it were normal circumstances, the other side might have already launched a killing strike.】

【According to the real timeline, the reincarnation of the Heavenly Demon Chaos era is extremely distant, yet it is still affected by dream reincarnation.】

【The unalterable iron law of the past has been broken time and again.】

【"Thank you, Daoist friend."】

【You stepped forward and bowed in thanks; otherwise, given Ye Xue's temperament, she would likely refuse to travel with the woman in purple.】

【You followed the woman in purple out of the Forbidden Zone.】

【The outside world has completely transformed.】

【The seas have turned to fields; worldly rules are no longer chaotic, but increasingly complete and strict, clearly allowing cultivators' limits to rise.】

【Looking up, the Nine Major Star Regions can be faintly seen spanning the heavens, closely connected.】

【The new world seems to have been divided into two special realms that are independent yet related.】

【The Baixiang Divine Land lies in ruins, having endured countless battles in past ages, unknown how many powerful beings have ravaged it.】

【After leading you out of the Forbidden Zone, the woman in purple departed.】

【You and Ye Xue exchanged a glance.】

【She said: "I want to make a trip to the Tianlong Star Domain to see my parents and clansfolk; will you come with me?"】

【You have no parents to visit, and your feelings toward your clansfolk are indifferent as water.】

【Only one figure remains in your mind.】

【After all these years, is the little maid still alive?】

【Having returned and experienced the joys and sorrows of the mortal world, you deeply understand the little maid's sacrifice and must see her again no matter what.】

【"I'll first return to the Blood-Painted Star Domain."】

【You refused Ye Xue's invitation to go together to the Tianlong Star Domain.】

【"Good."】

【Ye Xue did not insist.】

【You are both proud people, each with your own affairs; you can feel each other's sincere love, but you have never regarded each other as the entirety of your lives.】

【Having agreed on a time and place to meet again, you each went your separate ways.】

【On the way to the Blood-Painted Star Domain, you sensed something amiss: heaven and earth seemed divided into two relatively independent yet related realms, and the binding of worldly rules consequently strengthened.】

【Going from the lower realm to the upper realm requires breaking through layer upon layer of barriers.】

【You, who have not yet returned to the Earth Demon Realm, encountered a great obstacle; without the power of the astral divine light in your body and the Blood Demon Bloodline, you could not even break through the barrier.】

【After receiving the pull of the Blood-Painted Star Domain, you barely managed to return to it.】

【Your former hometown has completely changed its appearance.】

【Fortunately, you are not yet weak; you returned with narrow escape to the former territory of the Blood Demon clan.】

【You found a once-familiar clan elder.】

【The clan elder was delighted by your return and told you what had happened over the years.】

【Since the sudden change of heaven and earth, a new era began; 316 years have passed, and seven of the Twelve Heaven Demons' ancestors of the Blood-Painted Star Domain have fallen.】

【The remaining five Heaven Demons have not yet returned.】

【Upon hearing this, you felt greatly shocked.】

【It seems the strongest beings of the star domain are trapped in some region, unable to leave, perhaps contending for some supreme opportunity.】

【When those former powerhouses reappear, the new world will inevitably see another great war.】

【Thus, fortunate ones like the woman in purple who seized the initiative in the new world will become the new supreme beings, even surpassing all before.】

【You also learned from the clan elder about the division of the new realm.】

【The two relatively independent realms of the new world are called the Mundane World and the Star Realm; the former refers to the myriad provinces of the Baixiang Divine Land, the latter to the united Nine Major Star Regions.】

【The new realm's division is similar to that of the Blood-Painted Star Domain in the past.】

The first eight realms mainly cultivate the physical body, the sea of consciousness, and take cultivating out a dharma domain as the endpoint; they can be called Mortal Dust Supreme Being.

These eight realms are collectively called the Mortal Dust Eight Realms.

Above Mortal Dust, understanding the Dao and observing the stars is Legend.

The Legend Four Realms correspond to the previous Earth Demon Four Realms.

The realms above this have no names yet; aside from the trapped powerhouses of the old world, the number of living beings who have newly entered this realm is very few.

After communicating with the Clan Elder, you arrived at the residence where you used to live.

Since the Blood Heavenly Demon Patriarch's fall is not yet certain, his authority remains; the territory of the Blood Demon clan is still relatively safe, and the domain allotted to you by the family is likewise uninvaded.

Stepping onto the familiar homeland, your heart actually feels a hint of anxiety.

You even dare not cover the territory with your spiritual sense, fearing that your inner hope will be dashed.

At this moment, you cannot help but admit that you hope Xiao Ya Huan is still alive; you have never been so afraid of losing her.

You really, really want to see her.

However, what you ultimately saw was a small mound of earth.

A wooden plaque was inserted into the small mound, its characters neatly written in many lines; you dare not look at it closely.

"Did she eventually leave after all?"

"Three hundred and sixteen years of time, for a mortal, is quite long, isn't it?"

You trembled as you approached the small mound, overgrown with wild grass, and tears unknowingly blurred your vision.

The plaque reads:

"Young Master, I have finally waited for your return."

"The annoying servant is gone; you must be happy, right?"

"That day I saw you depart, I cried for a long; at the moment you vanished beyond the horizon, I felt I might never see you again."

"The vast world, I never envied even a bit; Young Master alone, yet you have exhausted my life."

"To me, you are like that—an endless distant place."
