Chapter 1851: Forty-Nine States of Primordial Chaos World

This was a bustling, thriving city in the Great Primordial Chaos World.

Every day, numerous boundary ships from all over the starry sky descended upon the city, and countless more would set sail.

Similar port cities were found all over the Great Primordial Chaos World and were extremely common.

With a loud roar, Whirlwind Ship landed on the ground.

Immediately, Lin Xun felt a rush of heavy law power coming at him. Its boundless primordial aura made him tremble all over.

The feeling was similar to coming to a paradise from a dry desert, breathing in breaths of pure chaos qi.

At the same time, his mind and spirit were refreshed and invigorated as if bathed in the aura of the great dao.

Lin Xun looked moved.

What an amazing world!

With his current cultivation level of the Supreme Saint-King Stage, he immediately determined that practicing here was comparable to practicing in a top blessed cultivation land in the Ancient Wasteland Domain.

Of note, this was only the outskirts of a port city in the Great Primordial Chaos World, and it was not a blessed cultivation land at all!

“No wonder the cultivators in the Ancient Nebula Road all regard the Great Primordial Chaos World as a sacred place of cultivation. This place...is indeed extraordinary.” Lin Xun marveled.

Ever since he had started cultivating, he had been to countless places, but almost none of them could hold a candle to the Great Primordial Chaos World!

Here, the law power of heaven and earth exuded a primordial aura that perfectly aligned with the dao and was perfect for cultivation.

Passengers raced down Whirlwind Ship like a tide. Most of the cultivators revealed expressions of excitement, anticipation, and curiosity.

It was also their first time in the Great Primordial Chaos World. After traveling across the starry sky for half a year, they finally reached this legendary place of cultivation. It was understandable for them to feel emotional and excited.

“Senior Yu Xuan, my master and I plan to head to the Pure Land of Grand Sound right away.” Liu Qingyan’s voice was sweet and gentle. She came to say goodbye to Lin Xun.

Lin Xun nodded with a smile. “Go ahead, we will definitely have a chance to meet again in the future.”

He had given the ‘Xuan’ token to Liu Qingyan when they were on the ship. If nothing unexpected happened, she would definitely be accepted into the Pure Land of Grand Sound.

Liu Qingyan drew a deep breath and fixed her limpid eyes on Lin Xun. “Senior Yu Xuan, can I ask you something?”

Lin Xun smiled wryly in his heart. He didn’t need to guess to know what Liu Qingyan wanted to ask.

He lowered his head and looked at the peerless beauty in front of him who looked like she had walked out of a painting. His voice turned serious as he reassured, “Miss Qingyan, when we meet again, no matter what you ask, I promise I will tell you the truth.”

Liu Qingyan was taken aback, then a hint of bitterness came to the depths of her eyes. “Fine, then…we’ll meet again?” She sighed.

She was a heavenly beauty—elegant and graceful like an orchid. However, at this moment, when she spoke, an expression of melancholy and disappointment clouded her face. Her pitiful look made Lin Xun feel the urge to tell her the truth about his identity.

In the end, he held back and nodded with a smile. “We will meet again.”

Liu Qingyan nodded and walked down the ship with her master Zhuang Yunzhi.

Watching her leave, Lin Xun couldn’t help but sigh. After this fortunate encounter, I don’t know when I will see her again.

What Lin Xun did not notice was that as Liu Qingyan walked away from Whirlwind Ship, a knowing grin tugged at the corner of her mouth.

“Brother Lin, Brother Lin, from the moment you picked up the Ancient Law Ocarina, I have already guessed your identity...” she murmured in her heart.

Six years ago, the world was rocked by news that came from the Kunlun Dominion and a man named Lin Xun also rose to fame in the Ancient Nebula Road.

From that moment, Lin Xun became a target of many powerful forces, and countless people hunted him like a prey, coveting his treasures and fortune.

Of course, Liu Qingyan knew about this.

Therefore, she also understood why Lin Xun concealed his identity and did not reunite with her.

“If it were anyone else, they would not protect me like you did...”

Thinking of this, she turned around. From afar, she could still see the tall figure standing in the same spot, following her with his eyes.

She couldn’t help but wave her hand, and a pure and beautiful smile spread across her face.

“Thank you for protecting me throughout this journey, Young Master Lin.” She murmured in her heart.

……

“We should go too.” As Lin Xun spoke, he headed out of Whirlwind Ship.

Dressed in clothes whiter than snow, the graceful Jintian Xuanyue followed after him.

Watching them leave, Liang Chuan and other influential figures of Heavenly Sound Pavilion felt a sense of relief as if a heavy weight had been lifted off them.

We finally sent that man away!

Thinking about everything that happened on the ship over the past six months, the gazes of Liang Chuan and the others turned complicated.

“When I return, I will seclude myself and never set foot in the world again until I have ascended the dao and become an emperor!” Liang Chuan inhaled deeply and vowed.

Throughout this journey, he was tortured and tormented mentally, but at the same time, it also allowed him to break through and overcome some of the fetters and barriers in his mind.

Perhaps it was a blessing in disguise.

……

In the Great Primordial Chaos World, leaving aside the uncharted lands, the area inhabited by cultivators was divided into forty-nine states.

This was to symbolize that only forty-nine of the fifty daos could be derived in the world.

Each state was extremely vast, consisting of countless cities, mountains, valleys and rivers.

The smallest Precious Gem State was around the size of the entire territory of the Ancient Wasteland Domain.

The largest Central Plain State spanned an area thousands of times larger than the Precious Gem State.

Moreover, as the uncharted lands around Central Plain State were discovered, its territory also expanded, and at present, it was several times greater than it was in the ancient times.

It was worth mentioning that Central Plain State was the heart of the Great Primordial Chaos World, and all Great Six Courts were entrenched there!

The Central Plain State was also regarded as the land where all Emperors gathered and where Ancestors lived in seclusion!

In other words, among the entire Ancient Nebula Road, the Central Plain State was no doubt the place with the highest number of Emperors!

This city was located in Qing State, one of the forty-nine states of the Great Primordial Chaos World. It was not particularly well known among the tens of thousands of cities in Qing State.

For Lin Xun, who had never been in the Great Primordial Chaos World, Lin’an City was an enormous city. The undulating thousand-foot-high city walls seemed to stretch endlessly into the horizon. It was a magnificent sight.

It was noon and the sun was shining brightly.

In front of the city gate, an endless stream of cultivators came and went, some riding on magical cranes, some carried by swords and other precious weapons, and some sitting on auspicious clouds...

There were men, women, young and old, and also many creatures with unusual appearances. Lin Xun couldn’t help looking amazed.

However, most of the cultivators came from other places in the Ancient Nebula Road, just like Lin Xun, and were considered as ‘foreigners.’

Lin Xun’s first impression of the city was that it was bustling and vibrant!

“Listen, foreigners. The entry fee into the city is three hundred dao crystals for those below the Saint Stage or ten dao crystals for those at the Saint Stage or above!”

A thunderous roar boomed from the city gate.

A group of armor-clad cultivators with powerful auras was guarding the city gate, maintaining order and managing entry in and out of the city.

Some were just guards of the city gates, but some possessed a cultivation of the True Saint level!

“Quickly hand over the dao crystals. Those are experts from the Xing Clan, the most powerful force in Lin’an City. The head of the clan, Xing Liushui, is an elder of the Purple Cloud Sword Clan, the third strongest sect in Qing State. He has mighty power and authority in the city and he is considered a top figure in Qing State.”

Someone in the crowd whispered, explaining the situation to Lin Xun and other foreigners.

The territory of Qing State was greater than any other great world. Any one of the top three forces there would be overlords if they were in other worlds.

For example, Heavenly Sound Pavilion was regarded as the number one sect in the Ziheng Star Field, but in Qing State, it was at most equivalent to Purple Cloud Sword Sect, which was ranked third!

“You have to pay to enter the city? What rule is this?”

Someone grumbled, not because they could not afford the fee, but because they felt looked down upon.

An elder patiently explained, “The rules of the Xing Clan are the rules of Lin’an City. In the past, there had been people who refused to pay and they suffered terrible consequences.”

Watching from afar, Lin Xun couldn’t help looking surprised. They dared to demand dao crystals from cultivators who enter the city. Are they not afraid of angering the wrong people?

“Young Master, as the saying goes, a strong dragon can’t suppress a local snake. In a port city like Lin’an, the majority of people are ‘foreigners’ who are unfamiliar with the Great Primordial Chaos World. Therefore, in normal circumstances, no one would rashly offend a local snake like the Xing Clan.”

Jintian Xuanyue explained in a soft voice beside him.

Lin Xun nodded with understanding. “In other words, this situation only happens in port cities?”

Jintian Xuanyue answered, “Yes, after all, the Great Primordial Chaos World is too big, with an excessive number of hidden dragons and tigers. If one is not careful, one may provoke descendants of powerful sects and ancient clans.”

Lin Xun nodded.

It made a lot of sense. Upon first arrival, when everything was unfamiliar, no matter who you were, you would not act rashly.

Lin Xun noticed that some Big Saints and Saint-Kings in the crowd also paid the fee without question before entering the city.

In other places, Big Saints and Saint-Kings were powerful enough to call the shots, but on their first visit to the Great Primordial Chaos World...

They had no choice but to cooperate.

Lin Xun also noticed that some youngsters who were clearly from prominent clans were reluctant to pay the fee. Their eyes flashed with anger, but they, under the advice of the elders around them, finally held back their anger.

They might be dazzling characters in other places, but in the Great Primordial Chaos World, they were just ‘foreigners.’

Just as Lin Xun and Jintian Xuanyue were about to follow the crowd into the city, a voice caught Lin Xun’s attention.

“Look, most of the bounty flyers in front of the city gate are related to Lin Xun! It has been nearly seven years since the battle in Kunlun, but Lin Xun is still listed as wanted!”
