Chapter 1405: The Location of the Great Void

Chen Fu nodded and said, “Sunset Mountain is a good place.”

Yan Mu did not think too much into Chen Fu’s words and only nodded and said, “Yes, yes, yes. If you have the time, p-please do visit. I’ll… I’ll make sure to welcome you!”

Chen Fu did not respond. Instead, he looked at Lu Zhou said, “I’ve never believed in luck. You must have some means to be able to obtain the Purple Glazed Ceramic. How should I address you?”

After all, up until now, Chen Fu still did not know Lu Zhou’s name.

Lu Zhou replied, “My surname is Lu. I’m from the Evil Sky Pavilion in the golden lotus domain.”

Yan Mu gulped. His image of Lu Zhou fell slightly. After all, since ancient times, the twin lotus domain had withdrawn from the world. It was Chen Fu himself who set this rule, and it had been that way for tens of thousands of years. Even the six Venerable Masters of Great Han abided by this rule.

The eastern capital and the western capital were originally the capital cities of the two respective green lotus domains and were at the heart of the two domains before they split. After the great war, both cities remained with them.

After being isolated for such a long time, it was only natural that Yan Mu was slightly prejudiced toward a stranger from the golden lotus domain.

Chen Fu’s expression remained the same as he said with a sigh, “In the end, this day still came.”

Lu Zhou said, “Humans would always have unnecessary thoughts. It’s just like men who profess their love and loyalty but are secretly thinking about the girl next door.”

Yan Mu: “???”

Yan Mu really did not understand the conversation at all. He thought to himself, ‘Forget it. Ignorance is bliss.’

Lu Zhou said, “I’m talking about the runic passage that leads to this place.”

Chen Fu did not disagree. Instead, he said, “The world is originally one. It’s difficult to sever all ties.”

Lu Zhou nodded in agreement. It was so hard for him to find a Saint, naturally, he would not let go of such a good opportunity to learn more things. Hence, he said, “Apart from seeking your advice about resurrection methods, there’s another thing I’d like to seek your advice as well.”

Chen Fu glanced at Lu Zhou from the corners of his eyes. When he saw Lu Zhou’s expressionless face, he thought to himself, ‘Is this the attitude one has when seeking advice?’

Lu Zhou continued to say, “I’ve always been curious. Everyone’s so afraid of the Great Void, and everyone says the Great Void is in the Unknown Land. However, after so long, no one has found the Great Void. Where exactly is the Great Void?”

Lu Zhou had asked this question many times. The more he asked, the more bizarre and unreliable the answers became.

Chen Fu turned to the side and said, “In the sky.”

This was the same answer Lu Zhou received previously.

“In the sky?” Lu Zhou raised an eyebrow.

Yan Mu instinctively raised his head and looked at the clear skies and saw a few flying beasts. One of it flapped its wings that spanned 100 feet, bringing it far into the distance in just a blink of an eye.

Chen Fu sighed. “In the nine domains, those who know the answer have long returned to heaven. It’s not surprising that you don’t know about it.”

Lu Zhou thought Chen Fu’s answer seemed credible. So he asked, “How do I find it?”

Chen Fu looked at Lu Zhou strangely as he asked, “Why do you insist on finding the Great Void?”

Lu Zhou did not answer Chen Fu immediately, It was a vague feeling; it was as though destiny was at play. It felt like an invisible force was driving him in that direction.

The shackles of heaven and earth, supreme beings, and being chess pieces to unknown forces; Lu Zhou felt like he was being guided to uncover these mysteries.

Finally, Lu Zhou said, “The imbalance has worsened. The nine domains are on the brink of collapse. The cultivation world has long been problematic. The Great Void likes policing people so why aren’t they doing anything?”

Chen Fu frowned. “Is the imbalance in the outside world so bad?”

“You’ve been in the twin lotus domain for too long,” Lu Zhou replied. The implication was Chen Fu was way behind times, and the outside world had long been turned upside down.

Chen Fu sighed. “Alas, you have the heart but not the power. Do you plan to save the world?”

“I’m not so kind. I just want to save myself,” Lu Zhou said.

Chen Fu nodded. He seemed like he was lost in memories as he said, “100,000 years ago, the land split. At that time, the imbalance was very bad as well. Countless people were killed and injured. All living things were in a dire strait. Many Saints tried to save the world, but they died tragically as well. When you defy the heavens, the suffering is endless.”

“You think too highly of the Great Void,” Lu Zhou said as he shook his head.

Chen Fu looked at Lu Zhou with a complex gaze. It was not the first time today he looked at Lu Zhou with such a gaze. He really wondered where Lu Zhou’s confidence came from for Lu Zhou to act so arrogantly not only to him but in regard to the Great Void as well. Finally, he asked, “You’re determined to find the Great Void?”

“That’s right.”

“Very well. If you can convince me, I’ll tell you what I know,” Chen Fu said tonelessly.

Lu Zhou was not in a rush to speak. He picked up his teacup and took a sip, savoring the fragrance. He looked at the clear sky and the waterfall. The scenery at Autumn Dew Mountain was truly pleasant.

‘Hm?’

At this moment, Lu Zhou suddenly felt a unique energy fluctuation. It was a Saint’s power of the Dao. His intuition told him that Chen Fu was sensing his strength and cultivation base. He set his teacup down lightly before he silently chanted the mantra for the power of concealment.

With one’s true body and wisdom in the Heavenly arts, one can reveal one’s vast strength. With the cloud medallion, one will be able to hide from sight and avoid detection through various Heavenly arts.

At this moment, everything was still and silent.

Yan Mu looked frozen with his mouth slightly open, and his eyes were dull; he looked just like a life-like sculpture. The green-clad cultivator standing nearby was motionless as well. The waterfall froze as sunlight glinted off it.

The freezing power of a Saint was indeed powerful.

Then, Lu Zhou silently chanted the mantra for the power of infinite deduction.

With infinite deductions, it’s possible to know and not know, to see and not to see. There are all kinds of changes in the laws of nature that are known by all living beings in this world.

With two of the Heavenly Writing powers, scene after scene appeared in Lu Zhou’s mind like a movie. There were flying chariots, fierce beasts, strong cultivators, weak cultivators, common folks, blood, severed limbs, corpses, and cries. Death was everywhere.

Lu Zhou was slightly shocked. He continued to use the power of infinite deduction.

Death, death, death. It was all death.

Lu Zhou did not stop until the scenes stopped coming.

“Senior?” Yan Mu gently touched the corner of Lu Zhou’s robes, pulling Lu Zhou back from his thoughts.

“Hm?” Lu Zhou looked at Yan Mu.

Yan Mu pointed at Chen Fu. “The Saint is…”

Lu Zhou turned around and saw Chen Fu was motionless.

However, in just a moment, Chen Fu looked up and asked, “Have you thought about what you’re going to say?”

Lu Zhou rose to his feet and said, “Change.”

“Change?” Chen Fu was puzzled.

Lu Zhou said, “Before your death, you should make a change.”

After using the power of infinite deduction, Lu Zhou came to the conclusion that Chen Fu was nearing the end of life. He did not think

Yan Mu gently touched the corner of Lu Zhou’s clothes and pulled him back from his thoughts.

Lu Zhou turned around and asked, “Yan Mu?”

Yan Mu pointed at Chen Fu and asked, “Saint?”

Lu Zhou looked over and saw that Chen Fu wasn’t moving.

At this moment, Chen Fu turned around and said, “Have you thought of a reason?”

Lu Zhou stood up and said,

“Change.”

Chen Fu was slightly puzzled.

Lu Zhou continued, “Make changes before your death.”

The result of the Infinite Numerancy divine art was that Chen Fu was nearing the end of his life. He did not think Chen Fu, who was a Saint that was revered by the people, would be able to accept such an outcome.

Yan Mu: “…”

In fact, not many people knew precisely how long a Saint could live. A Venerable Master could live for 30,000 years, and people speculated that a Saint could live for 100,000 years. This was only speculation. Most cultivators could not live that long to verify their speculation, after all. Saint also did not have the time to tell the common people how long they could live. Moreover, it was not a very auspicious topic. Nonetheless, auspicious or not, everyone had to face both life and death.

Yan Mu looked at Lu Zhou in shock. Despite all the outrageous things Lu Zhou had said earlier, he really did not expect Lu Zhou to say such a thing to Chen Fu. These words could be interpreted as a provocation after all. With this, Lu Zhou’s image in his heart dropped again, returning to its original position.

Chen Fu said, “Alright.”

Yan Mu: “???”

Chen Fu suddenly flashed and appeared outside of the pavilion. “Hua Yin.”

Although Chen Fu’s voice was not loud, it traveled far into the distance.

Not long after, Hua Yin appeared near the pavilion. He bowed and asked, “Master, your orders?”

“I’ll be gone for a moment. No one’s allowed to follow me.”

“Understood.”

Chen Fu flashed and appeared high up in the sky, leaving the barrier.

Yan Mu was filled with envy and admiration. A Saint was indeed a Saint. Even a Great Venerable Master would have to lower his head in front of a Saint. He turned to look at Lu Zhou and discovered Lu Zhou had vanished. When he looked up again, Lu Zhou was already standing next to Chen Fu.

The duo disappeared at the same time and appeared thousands of meters away at the same time. With another flash, they vanished out of sight.

Yan Mu’s heart skipped a beat.

Hua Yin walked to Yan Mu’s side and asked, “Who is he to you?”

“It’s my first time meeting him,” Yan Mu answered truthfully.

“Do you think I’ll believe that?”

“It’s the truth. It’s my first time meeting him today.”

“It’s best for you to be honest. I’ve disbanded the Seven Stars Sword Sect. You should know what this means,” Hua Yin said.

Yan Mu panicked. “I swear to the heavens that I’m telling the truth!”

Hua Yin looked at the sky and murmured, “To be able to compete with a Saint, his cultivation base has to be very high.”

“I-I didn’t expect this either.”

“With such an expert by your side, how could you have lost to a piece of trash like the Seven Stars Sword Sect? Hua Yin said as he shook his head.

“…” Yan Mu felt too embarrassed to say anything.

…

At the same time.

Lu Zhou followed Chen Fu and appeared in a desolate area.

Chen Fu came to a halt and pointed downward, “This is the runic passage that leads to the Unknown Land.”

Lu Zhou followed Chen Fu and landed in the runic passage. Then, he asked, “What are you going to do?”

“You’ll find out soon enough,” Chen Fu said.

Chen Fu activated the runic passage, and it lit up.

In just a blink of an eye, the duo vanished.

…

15 minutes later.

The duo arrived at the dark Unknown Land.

The Primal Qi in the Unknown Land was still chaotic. The fog in the sky roiled as though it was alive. The carcasses of fierce beasts littered the ground.

Chen Fu did not walk out of the runic passage immediately. Instead, he closed his eyes and inhaled deeply, inhaling the familiar scent of the Unknown Land. It was as though he had returned home. He opened his eyes, looking satisfied, and surveyed his surroundings. Then, he sighed heavily and muttered to himself, “Everything has changed.”

As Chen Fu walked out of the runic passage, five orbs of light flew over from all directions. He waved his hand, keeping them.

Lu Zhou found it strange so he asked, “What are they?”

“Collective Teleportation Jade Talismans.”

Chen Fu grabbed Lu Zhou’s left arm with his right and said, “Let’s go.”

With that, he crushed one of the jade talismans.

Lu Zhou felt the space distort immediately like when he was in the runic passage. However, there was something different about it as well.

When everything returned to normal, Lu Zhou found they were hovering in the air. He saw a huge pillar that towered into the clouds. It was barely visible through the fog.

Over 1,000 fierce beasts stampeded across the land, fighting with each other for territories.

“This place used to be called Chifenruo; it’s now known as Ji Ming. The Pillar of Destruction at Chifenruo supports this part of the world. Do you see it?” Chen Fu asked in a low voice.

Lu Zhou was immersed in the grandeur of the Pillar of Destruction at this moment.

Chen Fu crushed another jade talisman.

Like before, the space distorted as a burst of light enveloped the duo.

This time, the duo appeared on a mountain peak that was shrouded in mist. When they looked down the mountain, they saw rivers and forests.

Just like before, Lu Zhou also saw another Pillar of Destruction that towered into the clouds.

There were fewer fierce beasts in this place compared to the one before.

“This place was called Shetige; it’s now called Ping Dan. The Pillar of Destruction here supports the current generation. What do you think?” Chen Fu asked.

Lu Zhou nodded. Looking at the endless mist, towering mountains, and rivers, he could not help but sigh at how tiny humans were.

Chen Fu crushed a jade talisman again.

As soon as they appeared in the sky, Chen Fu said, “This is Po Xiao; it used to be called Shanyan. The Pillar of Destruction here supports this part of the world.”

Lu Zhou asked, “You’re trying to tell me that the Pillars of Destruction support the world?”

“They’re the origin of everything,” Chen Fu said.

“…”

Chen Fu crushed another jade talisman again, bringing them to their next destination.

This time, Lu Zhou found himself at a silent barren land. The trees were withered, and the vitality energy was thin. It was stifling and uncomfortable.

“This place was called Zhixu; it’s now called Shi Shi,” Chen Fu said.

“Why don’t people continue using the ancient names?” Lu Zhou asked.

Chen Fu replied, “Because they were the names of the Great Void.”

“….”

“Before the land split, the locations of the ten Pillars of Apocalypse were the Great Void.”

Lu Zhou was surprised by this answer.

Chen Fu did not wait and brought Lu Zhou to their next destination.

Lu Zhou was familiar with this place. He saw the Forest of Horror where Lord Zhennan used to stay. He took the lead to say, “This place used to be known as the Great Desolate Land, and now, it’s known as Yu Zhong.”

Chen Fu asked curiously, “You’ve been here before?”

Lu Zhou nodded.

Chen Fu said, “I’ve used up all five jade talismans. Do you still… want to see the remaining five Pillars of Apocalypse?”

Chen Fu did not think it was going to be very comfortable flying around.

Fortunately, Lu Zhou shook his head and said, “No need.”

“The ancient names of the locations of the remaining five pillars are Dunzhang, Xieqia. Huantan, Zuo’e, and the heart of the Unknown Land is called Great Yuanxian. Great Yuanxian is incredibly vast, and even I won’t rashly go there,” Chen Fu said.

Lu Zhou asked, “Since these places used to be the Great Void, then where’s the Great Void now?”

Chen Fu hesitated. After a few seconds of silence, he said, “Look up.”

“…”

Powerful fierce beasts with wings that spanned tens of thousands of feet were faintly discernible through the thick fog.

Human cultivators often said that it was relatively safe below the fog in the Unknown Land. It was the most dangerous behind the fog.. As it turned out, it was not because the fierce beasts were hidden behind the fog, it was because the Great Void was hiding behind the fog.
