The Mortal Realm, the center of the Saint Realm and the Underworld, was also known as the Shura Realm.
To enter the Mortal Realm from the Saint Realm, one had to break through the powerful barrier. Without a Saint Weapon, an Asura Battle Saint could do it.
But to enter the Underworld from the Mortal Realm, one had to break through the entire Shura Realm. Apart from gods, no one could do it.
It would be better to say that the Mortal World was another Holy Domain. It was a huge and vast space with countless worlds within it. However, it was not called a world here, but a continent. Of course, the area of the two couldn't be compared.
"So the Mortal Realm is like this."
At this moment, Xing Jue, Hun Ming, Dugu Changyi, and Ancestor Xuanye had entered the Mortal Realm. Looking at the floating continents and the vast Mortal Realm, Xing Jue couldn't help but sigh.
When he left the Sky Martial Continent and the Mortal Realm, it was through the Receiving Array. It could be said that he had entered the Saint Realm and arrived at the Sky Martial Continent of the Soul Source World without knowing what the Mortal Realm was like.
But now, he could finally see everything clearly. This difference proved that Xing Jue was growing, and growing very fast.
"No wonder, no wonder there's a legend in the Mortal Realm that as long as one reaches the Battle Saint realm, one can live forever. So the difference between the Mortal Realm and the Saint Realm is so great."
Feeling the surrounding aura, Xing Jue felt comfortable all over. This feeling was something he didn't have in the Saint Realm. This made Xing Jue suddenly think of the legend in the Mortal Realm.
That was, if one reached the Battle Saint realm, one could live forever in the Sky Martial Continent.
"Even an Asura Battle Saint can't escape death, let alone a Battle Saint who hasn't reached the Asura Realm."
"This is a complete illusion. The Mortal Realm can indeed prolong one's life, but there's a limit."
"The reason is that the Mortal Realm is close to the Underworld and can open the Reincarnation Space. After all, the Underworld is a place of eternal life for living beings!" Ancestor Xuanye explained.
"A place of eternal life? The people of the Nether Realm can live forever? "Hearing this, Xing Jue and the others were greatly shocked.
If it really was the departed spirits of the Nether Realm that could live forever, then their cultivation must be terrifyingly high. If that was the case, then the balance between the Nether and Saint Realms would probably be extremely high.
"No, for the undead, the Underworld cannot be immortal at all. For them, the Holy Land is the land of immortality."
"The nether realm's immortality is only for us living beings. However, it's only a legend," Blacknight continued to explain.
"Legend? What kind of legend is it?" The more Xing Jue listened, the more confused he became. However, the more he listened, the more he wanted to know.
"The Underworld and the Sacred Realm are two completely different spatial domains. The Sacred Realm is the residence of living beings, while the Underworld is the lair of the undead."
"It's said that living beings who enter the Nether Realm can live forever, and the same is true for the undead who enter the Holy Land."
"However, if all living beings in the world can live forever, then it would destroy the rules of heaven and earth and the cycle of life and death. That's why the Asura Realm appeared, separating the two spatial domains into two."
"That's why the undead army of the Nether Realm attacked the Holy Land ten thousand years ago. It was for the sake of eternal life in the Holy Land," Blacknight said.
"Since the undead are formed from living beings, will they die again?" The more Xing Jue listened, the more confused he became.
"Of course they will. Many people are curious about what the Nether Realm looks like. In truth, the Nether Realm is no different from the Holy Land. The only difference is that living beings live in the Holy Land, while the undead live in the Nether Realm."
"Everything in the Nether Realm is the same as the Holy Land. There are different races and factions, and similarly, there are the old and the undead."
"However, the dead become living beings, erase all their memories, and reincarnate into the Holy Land," Blacknight explained in detail.
"So that's how it is."
Only now did Xing Jue's group of three come to a sudden realization.
They finally understood that both the Holy and Nether Realms, be it the living or the undead, were undergoing an endless cycle. This was the so-called rules of heaven and earth, the cycle of life and death.
But if this cycle was broken one day, the rules of heaven and earth would no longer exist, and the cycle of life and death would be destroyed, no one knew what would happen.
Some people felt that if all living beings in the world obtained eternal life, then true peace would come.
But others felt that if all living beings obtained eternal life, then the day would also be the day all living beings in the world would be destroyed.
No one knew which was right and which was wrong. After all, everything was just a legend. No one could personally verify it.
"Xing Jue, can you tell which continent is the Tianwu Continent where your Spirit Eater clan resides?"
Blacknight asked as he pointed at the continents that twinkled like stars. After all, no matter how powerful they were, it would be a waste of time to explore every continent.
"It's really hard to tell."
Looking at the vast river of stars and specks of light, Xing Jue felt very helpless. No matter how powerful his Soul was, it was impossible for him to reach every corner of such a vast space.
"But perhaps it can help us."
With a flip of Xing Jue's palm, a ray of light shot out and flew toward the depths of the starry sky like a shooting star. It was none other than the spirit formation key that Fairy Ying had left behind.
* whoosh whoosh whoosh *
At that moment, Xing Jue and the others closely followed. They flew down, but in the end, they arrived at an empty space.
It was a vast space, but it was pitch-black. There were very few continents in the surroundings, and even if there were a few, they were very far from each other.
However, the spirit formation key that Fairy Ying had left behind was floating there without moving. This confused Xing Jue and the others.
"What's going on?" Hun Ming asked in confusion. He looked very anxious.
As for Xing Jue and the others, they could only shake their heads helplessly. They couldn't sense the existence of anything in this place. It was completely empty.
* hum *
However, at the moment when everyone was confused, at the moment when they were all confused, the spirit formation key suddenly disappeared. Then, a dazzling light began to appear before their eyes.
Soon, an enormous spirit formation gate appeared before Xing Jue and the others. On the other side of the gate was a vast world. It was the Sky Martial Continent.
"The Sky Martial Continent, this is the Sky Martial Continent!" Hun Ming was extremely excited as he looked through the gate.
"That girl Moon Monarch is truly skilled. So her spirit formation space has sealed and concealed the entire Sky Martial Continent."
"If it wasn't for this spirit formation key, we would have come here in vain."
Looking at the Sky Martial Continent through the gate, Old Ancestor Xuanye sighed in admiration.
Before this, no one had imagined that fairy Ying had relied on some heaven-defying method to hide the entire Martial Heaven Continent.
"Sky Martial Continent, I, Xing Jue, have finally returned."
At that moment, the person who was the most excited was none other than Xing Jue. His face was beaming with joy. His emotions could be clearly seen.
* whoosh *
A figure flashed and disappeared. Xing Jue had already flown into the Sky Martial Continent.
… …
In the Eastern Continent of the Sky Martial Continent, there were two overlord powers. They were the Nangong Family and the Yufeng Pavilion.
No one dared to provoke these two overlord powers. At the same time, there were no conflicts between them. Because of a single person, the two powers became as close as a family.
In the depths of the Nangong Family's palace, there was a palace that no one dared to casually step into.
Inside the palace, a beautiful woman stood next to a window. Her eyes were filled with longing as she looked at the vast horizon.
She was Xing Jue's mother, Dugu Changyi's wife, and the current head of the Nangong Family, Nangong Shuiyue.
"Jue 'er, Changyi, how are the two of you doing?"
Thinking back to the day when Xing Jue and Dugu Changyi had disappeared, Nangong Shuiyue's eyes couldn't help but moisten.
She had always been strong. There was nothing that could break her down. There was nothing that could make her cry. However, every time she thought of her son and husband, she couldn't help but cry.
"If it's possible, I hope to see the two of you again. Even if it's just a glance, I'll be satisfied."
Suddenly, Nangong Shuiyue slowly closed her eyes. She couldn't see her son and husband in the real world, so she could only see them in her mind.
At that moment, as Nangong Shuiyue closed her eyes, the tears in her eyes slid down her cheeks.
"I'm sorry. I've made you suffer all these years."
At that moment, a rough hand silently appeared in front of her beautiful face and wiped away the two streams of tears.
The sudden change caused Nangong Shuiyue to be greatly alarmed. She immediately opened her eyes and retreated at the same time.
However, she was instantly stunned when she saw the man in front of her.
Although his weathered appearance was different from the impression she had of her husband, wasn't the man in front of her her husband, Dugu Changyi?
"Changyi!!!"
Nangong Shuiyue threw all caution to the wind and threw herself into Dugu Changyi's embrace. She tightly hugged him, unwilling to let go.
"Changyi, is it really you? Is it really you? "
Nangong Shuiyue's arms tightly hugged Dugu Changyi. Her face was stuck to his chest, but she refused to open her eyes.
"It's me, Shuiyue. Jue 'er and I have returned to see you." Dugu Changyi smiled as he comforted her. However, his usually resolute eyes were now filled with tears.
"Jue 'er, where is Jue' er?" Nangong Shuiyue hurriedly raised her head and looked around when she heard the words' Jue 'er'.
Only then did she discover that Xing Jue was standing beside her, smiling as he looked at her.
"Jue 'er."
Nangong Shuiyue opened her right arms and hugged Dugu Changyi with one hand and Xing Jue with the other.
"If this is a dream, I hope I never wake up!" Nangong Shuiyue's tears fell like rain as she sobbed.
"Mother, this is not a dream. Father and I are really back." Xing Jue helped his mother wipe away her tears as he comforted her.
He could feel his mother's longing for him and his father. He had also been looking forward to the day when his family would be reunited.
"This is not a dream?" Nangong Shuiyue raised her head in disbelief as she sized up Xing Jue and Dugu Changyi. She still refused to believe it.
"Of course it's not a dream. You can pinch me if you don't believe me. No matter how hard you pinch, your son is still here."
In order to reassure his mother, Xing Jue grinned as he picked up his mother's hand and pinched his own face.
"It's really you, Jue 'er. It's really you. This is great, this is great."
At this moment, Nangong Shuiyue smiled for the first time. However, tears continued to flow from her eyes. They were tears of joy.
