Tides rose and fell, the stars shifted in the sky.

Qin Yu stood at the highest point of the starry sea, a sense of inexplicable melancholy in his heart.

He held the silver-white iron hoop, recalling the past. He understood that his never-before-seen teacher wanted to change something with this.

But…

"Some things, perhaps are already destined…"

With a slight sigh, Qin Yu flicked the silver iron hoop away with a finger, sending it soaring into the void. At the same time, he gazed into the distance:

"Thank you…"

…

Light and shadow intertwined, disappearing in an instant.

"Failed…"

In the dark and chaotic realm of Nirvana, An Qisheng sighed inwardly.

Qin Yu was born from the eons of tribulation of the Dragon Erosion World, a crystallization of disorder and chaos, the terminator representing the destruction of the epoch.

In the darkness, there was an invisible pull, forcing him to embark on the path of destruction.

He had imprinted the Taiji Dao Seed on the Taiji Qiankun Ring, intending to pull him out of that path, but now it seemed that he had ultimately failed.

Qin Yu used Suspended Mountain as a guide to return the Taiji Qiankun Ring to himself, either as a thank you, or to sever the cause and effect between them.

"Qin Yu…"

An Qisheng collected his thoughts, and as he moved his mind, the 'Sealing Heaven Talisman' that enveloped his body, or rather, the Taiji Qiankun Ring within it, rippled with misty Daoguang.

Whoosh!

In the next instant, surrounded by the serpent's body and guarded by white light, the seemingly lifeless body slowly rose.

"Enter the dream…"

An Qisheng murmured in his heart, and the Dao One Diagram deep in his soul rippled with a water-like light.

In the subtle and minute, the endless Dao power boiled, poured out, and burned.

In the thoughtless and senseless Nirvana realm, a touch of purple light suddenly appeared, weak at first, then blazing.

Buzz~

Immediately, there was an endless flow of Dao rhythm changing, and before long, dots of streamer had emerged from the Dao rhythm.

These were the Dao markers of the several worlds that An Qisheng possessed, or rather, the spacetime Dao markers.

Entering the dream of the Great Thousand was not omnipotent. To traverse, there must still be a reliance, a medium, or rather, spacetime coordinates.

"Jiu Fu World, Huang Tian World, Wan Yang World, Dragon Erosion World, San Xin World, Wu Shen World, World Tree Great World…"

Scanning the many spacetime Dao markers he possessed, An Qisheng also reviewed his plans in his heart.

The Nirvana realm was far more bizarre, complex, and difficult to overcome than any previous realm.

However, this realm was not unbreakable.

After years of silence, An Qisheng gradually gained a deeper understanding of this realm.

Nirvana is neither death nor life. The key to breaking through the realm is not transcending life and death, but defining life and death.

Life and death are laws, concepts, and the Great Dao.

Transcending life and death has always been relative.

Compared to the masses, Gautama had already transcended life and death, and the Six Sages of Huang Tian were even more so. However, Tai Long still fell under the sword of Impermanence.

The reason is that transcending life and death is an infinitely large concept.

Therefore, An Qisheng was very clear that if he wanted to break through the Nirvana realm, he had to define his own life and death.

In other words, a person outside the Dao!

But it was not easy to do this. Like the Six Sages of Huang Tian, after endless years of cultivation, they could not even touch the edge of the Nirvana realm.

Even An Qisheng at this time had no certainty and could only prepare for a desperate fight.

"Xuan Xing…"

Surrounded by purple light, An Qisheng stretched his will to the extreme, using the traction in the darkness as an anchor, looking and sensing the outside world from afar.

In a trance, he seemed to see the ice-crystal-like Xuan Xing, the dreamers, and the talisman masters.

He saw Gu Changsheng, Chu Fan, Wang Zhixuan, Qinglong, Juechen Daoren, Xue Zheng… these acquaintances and friends.

He also saw Wangquan Jian diligently taking care of his 'parents'.

He saw Wangquan Mountain in the dream and even saw Jiu Fu World beyond the distant spacetime through it.

In the end, his gaze settled on Su Jie.

With the utmost divine intention, without the blessing of the Dao One Diagram, he had already seen Su Jie's 'future'.

He saw him spreading the Dao in the 'World Tree Great World', leading many dreamers to explore, verify, and grow in it.

He even saw him light the divine fire, raise the divine seat, ascend above the star realm, and completely open the prelude to the divine war between the two worlds.

…

"Everyone, take care…"

Looking deeply at Xuan Xing in the white light, An Qisheng's heart surged with thousands of thoughts.

Xuan Xing, or rather the Spiritless Universe, was much safer than other worlds.

Being in a place of spiritual deprivation, An Qisheng asked himself, even if all the Sages of Huang Tian came together, they might not be able to do anything to him under the great suppression of the Spiritless Universe.

But if he wanted to break through the Nirvana realm, it was not so suitable.

He had to choose another place.

Whoosh!

With a turn of his mind, all thoughts were extinguished.

In the next instant, An Qisheng's extremely divine intention led the external Taiji Qiankun Ring.

With a sudden tremor, he brought his body into the purple light and began the first time in the true sense.

Traveling through spacetime!

"Enter the dream…"

"Barren World!"

…

Xuan Xing.

Wangquan Dream.

The morning glow broke, and the sun hung high.

The fog in the mountains had not yet dissipated, lingering around the mountains like a jade belt. At the foot of a certain mountain, in a courtyard surrounded by a bamboo fence, Mu Longcheng slowly took care of the herbs he had planted.

After returning from the Wan Yang World, Mu Longcheng spent most of his time in the Wangquan Dream, comprehending the dream and also looking for a path forward.

He was very clear that he had not yet escaped An Qisheng's control. In fact, many dreamers in Xuan Xing could freely enter and exit the dream.

Except for him and Yan Changsha.

The two of them were firmly bound to the 'Reincarnation Blessed Land, Infinite Cave Heaven' and could not return to the real world again.

Whoosh whoosh~

As the fog rolled and sank, Yan Changsha came slowly in the breeze. He stopped in front of the small courtyard, bowed slightly, and said:

"Teacher, have you noticed it? His aura…"

In the small courtyard, Mu Longcheng was carefully taking care of the herbs. Hearing this, he did not look up and said lightly: "He wouldn't be so easy to have an accident…"

"Yes…"

Yan Changsha sighed slightly: "After all, he is the God of Great Xuan."

"God…"

Mu Longcheng raised his eyebrows and shook his head slightly: "His realm is no longer something that 'God' can describe…"

Having experienced the two dream journeys to the Mortal Realm and Wan Yang World, Mu Longcheng was very clear that his great enemy's realm had already reached an incredible height.

In fact, his two 'crossings' were limited to one palm, and his cultivation at this time was far higher than anyone above Great Xuan.

Let alone An Qisheng, who seemed to have mastered the power of traversing spacetime.

"Eh?"

Yan Changsha wanted to say something, but Mu Longcheng suddenly turned around, his eyes burning like fire, spewing out into the air like a substance.

He looked towards the high void, vaguely feeling that familiar aura, which had disappeared again after appearing in the world for a short time!

Moreover, unlike the previous silence, this time, it was a complete disappearance.

It was as if he was really going to leave this world.

Whoosh!

A strong wind seemed to roll through the mountains, and the endless fog was cleared away amidst the rustling of trees and plants.

"This is…"

Yan Changsha was shocked, and then he felt something, half surprised and half unbelievable: "His aura, is disappearing?"

Not only Mu Longcheng, but Yan Changsha was also very clear.

In the previous decades, even if they could not find An Qisheng's trace at all, his aura still existed, even if it was so silent that it was almost imperceptible.

But it still pressed them both down, unable to move.

But at this time, this aura, like a mountain pressing down, like a thorn in the back, was truly disappearing.

"He…"

Mu Longcheng's mind trembled, but almost at the same time as he thought of 'An Qisheng', his expression changed again.

"You!"

In a trance, he seemed to see the void cracking.

An indescribable palm came from nothingness, pierced through the sky and the earth, and slowly opened in front of him.

"What happened?"

Seeing Mu Longcheng's expression change suddenly, Yan Changsha's heart 'thumped', and he looked around, but did not find anything unusual.

But when he turned around, his face completely changed.

In his eyes, the small courtyard was still there, the vegetation was still there, but Mu Longcheng's figure, along with his aura, had disappeared without a trace!

"What?!"

Yan Changsha's expression changed drastically, and his divine intention rose to the limit in an instant.

Then, he seemed to see purple light flickering behind the nothingness, and vaguely, he seemed to hear a whisper echoing in the nothingness:

"I almost forgot about you…"
