Lord of All Realms (Web Novel)
chapter-1126

The Godspirit Tree within him had received a gift from the Heaven-equal Vine, and had thus formed a subtle connection with it.

“It still hasn’t found that place...” He muttered in a low voice.

“What? Who are you talking to?” Dong Li asked.

Nie Tian shook his head. “Nothing.”

At this moment, the enormous illusory shape of the Heaven-equal Vine rose into the distant sky, where there were plenty of extinct volcanoes.

However, it only existed for a split second before vanishing again.

The Qi warriors in the Realm of Unbounded Desolation had already become used to its existence. Therefore, they no longer made a fuss when they saw it in the sky.

It was from it that Hua Mu and Qi Bailu had learned about the battle between Cardy and the sectmaster of the Heavenly Corpse Sect in the starry river.

Besides, they knew that it had only come here from the Realm of Shattered Earth because of Nie Tian’s directions.

They were also very interested in this magical land that it was looking for, where a small Tree of Life grew.

WHOOSH!

The Heaven-equal Vine’s vague shape once again appeared over the extinct volcanoes, and started approaching Nie Tian.

It came to a stop in the air when it was about ten thousand meters away from him. Even though it had already shrunk significantly in size, it still looked like a magnificent mountain.

In the next moment, a clear soul message entered Nie Tian’s mind.

Nie Tian then learned that the Heaven-equal Vine had been looking for the nomadic entrance to the magical land he had talked about for a long time now.

It had only come over to Nie Tian because it had captured Zhao Shanling and Pei Qiqi’s special auras.

Their auras, which were unique to spatial power experts, let it see hope. It had a feeling that the two of them might be able to help it finally find the spatial tunnel to the magical land where a young Tree of Life grew.

After a brief communication with it, Nie Tian nodded slightly. “So that’s how it is.”

Then, he turned to Pei Qiqi and Zhao Shanling, who were standing next to him, “The Heaven-equal Vine came to an agreement with my sectmaster. Now that the agreement has expired, it’s hoping to return to its homeland through the legendary place where the Fruits of Life are.”

Upon hearing this, Dong Li asked with a puzzled expression, “Didn’t we find that place before?”

That was the place where Nie Tian had obtained the Fruits of Life that he had given Hua Mu and Wu Ji. He had explained the exact location of the entrance to the Heaven-equal Vine.

However, since the Heaven-equal Vine had failed to find it, it must have moved to another location.

“To be honest, I won’t be able to help with that,” Zhao Shanling said. “I was a member of the Tool Sect, where we had a few spatial power experts. Back in the day, we were all fascinated by that rumor, and thus came looking in the Realm of Unbounded Desolation. However, none of us found a thing. So we gave up.

“Later, when word spread that you managed to secure Fruits of Life from that place, I came here to look again, but still found nothing.”

With these words, he shot a glance at Pei Qiqi. “But perhaps you can give it a shot, kid.”

Pei Qiqi’s whole purpose in coming to the Realm of Unbounded Desolation was to enter the space disruption zone Zhao Shanling had talked about as soon as possible.

She frowned upon hearing this. Even though she was eager to leave, she summoned her spatial treasure under Nie Tian’s anticipating gaze.

The irregularly shaped crystal spun as it rapidly flew out of everyone’s view to search every corner of the Realm of Unbounded Desolation.

At the same time, word of Nie Tian’s arrival spread to the Tool Sect. Qi Bailu and all of the Tool Sect elders rushed over to see him.

Upon arriving, Qi Bailu spotted Zhao Shanling. His expression instantly became complicated.

Upon seeing him, Zhao Shanling tilted his chin and let out a cold harrumph.

The two martial brothers had secretly competed against each other over the years. Now, it seemed that Zhao Shanling had won by entering the late Void domain and becoming the strongest cultivator in the Domain of the Falling Stars.

The man had held a bad name before. However, since he had become close to Nie Tian, people rarely talked about the things he had done anymore.

Now, as Qi warriors from the Domain of the Falling Stars talked about him, there were usually more remarks of respect than remarks of despise.

Qi Bailu sighed inwardly and turned to ask Pei Qiqi with a surprised expression, “What brings you here, kid?”

Zhen Huilan was his junior martial sister. When Pei Qiqi had returned last time, other than Li Ye and Hua Mu, she had paid him a visit as well. Only after that had she gone to the Void Illusion Mountain Range.

“We’re going on a trip to a space disruption zone,” Pei Qiqi answered.

“Do you want me to go with you?” Qi Bailu offered.

Zhao Shanling gave him a cold look and said, “Don’t butt in. We’re good. You don’t know a thing about spatial power. And it must have been difficult for you to enter the Void domain. You’d better stay home, instead of courting death by going to a space disruption zone with us.”

Qi Bailu, however, wasn’t angered by his provocative remarks, as if he was already used to it. He only fixed Pei Qiqi with an inquiring gaze.

“Thank you, but there’s no need,” Pei Qiqi said with a hint of warmth at the corner of her mouth. “I don’t intend to include lots of people before I confirm certain things. Otherwise, I would have asked my master to make arrangements for me.”

Qi Bailu nodded. “That’s right. Given your current status, you don’t need help from me anymore.”

Pei Qiqi was a bit rattled. “No, that’s not what I meant.”

Qi Bailu smiled. “I know what you meant. Don’t misunderstand. I’m truly happy for you and Nie Tian. I heard that Nie Tian defeated a powerful Demon in the Dead Star Sea. Meanwhile, you joined the Void Spirit Society and became one of the sectmaster’s legacy disciples. That makes me very happy too.

“The two of you are the brightest stars the Domain of the Falling Stars has ever seen.

“Who would have thought that a remote place like the Domain of the Falling Stars, which only has nine realms, would produce cultivators so brilliant that they were chosen by the four great sects.”

He was generous with his praise.

Standing beside Nie Tian, Dong Li listened as he said ‘the two of you’ over and over. Her face grew grim.

Dong Li rolled her eyes and gave Qi Bailu a stern look. “Let’s find that place as soon as possible. We’re still going to that space disruption zone, aren’t we?”

Qi Bailu was sensible enough to shut his mouth.

It was known that Dong Li was Nie Tian’s fiance, who had won Nie Donghai’s acknowledgment.

She had been a ticking bomb since the disastrous incident in the Dong Clan. If he continued with this, he was almost certain that she would give the Tool Sect tight shoes to wear in the future. (Idiom: make things hard for someone by abusing one’s power)

After all, Dong Li had been Nie Tian’s representative in all of his domains before she had gained the dark stone and needed to practice secluded cultivation.

BZZZ!

An hour later, the irregularly shaped crystal returned.

Pei Qiqi touched it, then said, “There actually is a discovery. It’s just that I’m not sure if it’s the entrance to that magical place with a Tree of Life.”

With a casual move of her hand, she split open a spatial rift.

Qi Bailu and those who came with him all gasped with astonishment. Without asking permission, they cheekily followed Nie Tian and the others into the spatial rift.
