Chapter 1476 Fortunes of War Merits
The Flying Immortal Tablet!
Lin Xun immediately remembered that not long after he had entered the Ancient Wasteland Domain’s West Infinity World for the first time, he had obtained a Flying Immortal Tablet from Lin Wenjun, who had come from the Azure Hill Sky Fox Clan[1].
This was a secret treasure left by the ancestors of the Azure Hill Sky Fox clan. It involved the Kunlun Dominion, which was one of the four great dao dominions, Thus, it was incredibly valuable.
Of note, the Kunlun Dominion was extremely mysterious and ethereal. It was rumored to be related to the true path to eternal immortality. Furthermore, it contained opportunities and treasures that would make any Saint-level cultivator jealous and go crazy over!According to Lin Wenjun, there were nine Flying Immortal Tablets in their world. One of them was in the hands of Azure Hill Sky Fox Clan, one was in the hands of the Black Nightmare Sky Dog Clan, and one was owned by Dharma Flower Pure Land which was also known as the "Little Western Heaven" in East Victory World.
As for the other Flying Immortal Tablets, she didn’t know who had them.
"Is it this thing?"
Lin Xun flipped his hand, and a token that resembled polished mutton-fat jade appeared. It was about the size of a person’s palm and had a light cyan halo surrounding it.
Inside the token, one could vaguely see that there was a dense aura of immortality, a rain of light, and a divine charm. It made it appear extremely mysterious and extraordinary.
"Huh!"
A'hu was very surprised, and her pair of lucid eyes flashed with a strange light. "You already have a Flying Immortal Tablet, which makes things easier. The favor I want to ask you for is related to it."Without waiting for Lin Xun to ask, A'hu continued, "The Flying Immortal Tablet is related to the Kunlun Dominion, one of the four great dao dominions. Only by holding this tablet could someone have the opportunity to enter it.
"The Ancient Wasteland Domain has nine Flying Immortal Tablets. Furthermore, among the nine domains, the other eight regions also have nine Flying Immortal Tablets each. In other words, there are a total of eighty-one Flying Immortal Tablets that exist in this world.
"When there is no war between the nine domains, these Flying Immortal Tablets are useless because one can only have the opportunity to enter the Kunlun Dominion when war between the nine domains breaks out. This is because it is located in the space between the domains and the ultimate battlefield of the nine domains.
"But you also know that from the ancient times to the present, the Conflict of Nine Domains has only broken out twice. The first time occurred before the end of the primeval era. That was when the nine realms fought for hegemony, which caused the complete decline of the Ancient Wasteland Domain. Following that, the supreme path no longer existed, and the three taboo tribulations have turned into invisible shackles, covering the heavens over the Ancient Wasteland Domain.
"The second war between the nine domains broke out before the end of the ancient era. The other eight realms invaded the Ancient Wasteland Domain and a huge war broke out. From then on, the Ancient Wasteland Domain was shattered and turned into four realms: East Victory, West Infinity, South Wonder, and North Dipper.
"After every battle between the nine domains, the Kunlun Dominion will appear! Only those who hold a Flying Immortal Tablet will have the chance to enter it.
"And in this world, it won't be long before the third battle between the nine domains will begin!"
Lin Xun couldn't help but be surprised after hearing this.
This was the first time he was hearing that the Conflict of the Nine Domains was actually intertwined with the Kunlun Dominion, which seemed incredible.
Lin Xun couldn't help but ask, "What is hidden in the Kunlun Dominion such that it only appears in the Nine Domains Battlefield?"
A'hu thought for a while and said, "You should also know that at the beginning, the Ancient Wasteland Domain was strong enough to rank first among the nine regions! At that time, the people from the other eight regions could only bow down before the Ancient Wasteland Domain! But do you know why the Ancient Wasteland Domain declined so quickly?"
Lin Xun frowned, "Isn't it related to the Conflict of the Nine Domains?"
A'hu responded, "Of course it is related to the Conflict of Nine Domains, but do you know what the Conflict of the Nine Domains is actually about?"
Lin Xun's eyes lit up as he realized something. "Is it about an opportunity to enter the Kunlun Dominion?"
A'hu nodded. "That’s right. During the first two Conflict of the Nine Domains, the originally extremely powerful Ancient Wasteland Domain was jointly suppressed by the other eight domains. As a result, it suffered a disastrous defeat and lost the opportunity to enter the Kunlun Dominion. Furthermore, these two disastrous defeats caused the Ancient Wasteland Domain to collapse and continue to decline to this day, becoming the bottom-ranked realm in the eyes of the other eight realms.
"As for the other eight regions, they seized the opportunity to enter the Kunlun Dominion during the Conflict of the Nine Domains. Thus, their foundations and strength have become stronger and stronger over these endless years."
At the end of that, A'hu couldn't help but sigh.
Lin Xun was stunned.
He really couldn't have imagined that because the Ancient Wasteland Domain had lost the previous two Conflict of the Nine Domains that they would fail to seize the opportunity to enter the Kunlun Dominion. Furthermore, it was astonishing that missing such an opportunity would have such a big impact!
"Earlier you asked me what is hidden in the Kunlun Dominion that could influence the nine regions so much. It's actually very simple."
At this time, A'hu took a deep breath and explained, "Anyone who enters the Kunlun Dominion and returns can become an Emperor!"
Become an Emperor!
Lin Xun was dumbstruck as he now truly understood the implications.
If entering the Kunlun Dominion allowed someone to have the opportunity to become an Emperor, it was obvious that after the last two Conflict of the Nine Domains, the experts of the other eight domains who had taken the opportunity to enter the Kunlun Dominion will inevitably emerge as Emperors after all this time. Thus, the other domains had a large number of Emperor-realm experts!
An Emperor-level cultivator possessed the power of overlooking the heavens and roaring like a supreme overlord. They had enough power to affect the rise and fall of a world.
Furthermore, what could a group of Emperors do?
There were a total of eighty-one Flying Immortal Tablets in the universe, which meant that eighty-one experts would have the opportunity to enter the Kunlun Dominion.
If all of those people could return safely from the Kunlun Dominion, wouldn't that mean that in the years to come, as long as they didn’t suffer from a calamity, eighty-one Emperors would emerge?
And when the other eight regions produced more and more Emperor-level experts, what could the Ancient Wasteland Domain do to fight against them? No wonder it had declined to this point!
"When someone enters the Kunlun Dominion and returns, they will have the opportunity to become an Emperor in the future. It is like having the qualifications to become an Emperor through the pursuit of the great dao. Thus, it is clear how magical this Kunlun Dominion is."
There was a hint of longing in A'hu's eyes, and her voice was filled with emotion.
"The other eight regions seized the opportunity, and their strength and foundation have continued to rise. However, the Ancient Wasteland Domain missed these crucial chances and fell into a continuous decline. For example, the three forbidden taboo tribulations that shroud the Ancient Wasteland Domain only appeared after the first Conflict of the Nine Domains.”
A'hu then switched gears, "However, it won't be long before the next Conflict of the Nine Domains will begin. This time, unlike the past, a group of supreme experts have emerged in the Ancient Wasteland Domain. Although our foundations may be a bit lacking compared to the experts from the other eight domains, there is still some hope for us now!"
Speaking of this, she then looked at Lin Xun, "And the favor I want to ask from you is related to entering the Kunlun Dominion. It's not enough to have the Flying Immortal Tablet. In fact, you also need to collect ‘Fortunes of War Merits' from the Nine Domains Battlefield! When you collect a thousand ‘Fortunes of War Merits,’ you can open a dao rune pattern that is in the Flying Immortal Tablet and then embark on the path to the Kunlun Dominion."
"How do you obtain Fortunes of War Merits?" Lin Xun asked.
"It's very simple, kill the enemy." A'hu continued, "If you kill your opponent, then you can seize the opponent's luck, and it will be collected in the Flying Immortal Tablet like a type of meritorious deed.
“However, weak opponents do not have any luck at all.
"There are only two types of people who you can obtain Fortunes of War Merits from. One are the talented experts who have amazing talents and powerful combat power, and the other are Saints.
"This also means that if you want to collect Fortunes of War Merits, you must hunt down opponents at the genius level or hunt down Saints. Furthermore, the number you need to kill is extremely high.
"In the past two Conflict of the Nine Domains, in order to collect Fortunes of War Merits, almost all of the strongest geniuses in the Ancient Wasteland Domain were wiped out by the experts from the other eight domains. The losses were so heavy that you can’t even imagine it."
When Lin Xun heard this, he came to a realization.
Those who could enter the Nine Domains Battlefield were the most amazing and powerful people in each domain, and they had extremely bright futures.
However, if they were hunted down, then it would be equivalent to wiping out the most promising batch of cultivation seeds in the Ancient Wasteland Domain.
And without this batch of seeds that could lead the trend in the years to come, how could the Ancient Wasteland Domain possibly rise?
Thus, it was not surprising that after the previous two Conflict of the Nine Domains, the Ancient Wasteland Domain declined and had become like this after all those endless years!
Furthermore, only the fortuitous coming of the great age allowed a group of young experts from the Ancient Wasteland Domain to become supreme kings.
Otherwise, once the battle between the nine domains broke out, the Ancient Wasteland Domain would not be qualified to compete with the other eight regions!
"And what I want you to do is to give me a Flying Immortal Tablet that has collected a thousand Fortunes of War Merits."
At this time, A'hu took a deep breath and said seriously, "I know this matter is very difficult to handle. Even though our chances are extremely slim, I would feel regretful for the rest of my life if we don’t try to fight for it."
Immediately following that, she added, "However, I will not let Young Master Lin do this work in vain. No matter whether you succeed or not, I will give you something that will give you some unexpected benefits after you enter the Kunlun Dominion. "
Lin Xun was silent for a moment, then he smiled and said, "Years ago, you helped me escape from a sticky situation by the Spirit Burial Sea. Furthermore, you even gave me the Grand Universe Ark, which has saved me from many dangers during all these years that I have run around. Now that you are asking for my help, I should do my best. As for the reward, I won’t mention it.”
A'hu's eyes shone like stars, and with a smile on her lips, she said, "From your response alone, for me, this trip had been worthwhile."
That night, Zhao Xingye held a banquet in honor of A'hu, Zhao Jingxuan, Toady and the others.
"Big Brother, the origins of this girl, A'hu, are very mysterious. After I returned to the Dao Burial Sea Mound, I was spotted by her. In fact, she gave me some pointers, allowing me to discover some information and clues related to my life experience."
At the banquet, Toady was drinking wine while transmitting messages quickly to Lin Xun, "Later on, she also gave Miss Zhao some guidance. In a secret realm near the Return Dominion, Miss Zhao also received a fortune from her, which made her strength grow by leaps and bounds!"
"It can be said that both I and Miss Zhao owe her a big favor. I still haven't figured out why she did this, which is why I find it strange."
After hearing this, Lin Xun couldn't help but be surprised. After thinking for a moment, he vaguely realized that A'hu's purpose of doing this was probably related to the help she wanted.
After all, he was not the only one who could participate in the Conflict of the Nine Domains. Zhao Jingxuan and Toady also had the opportunity to contribute.
At the end of the banquet, Lin Xun realized that A'hu was here to take him, Zhao Jingxuan, and Toady away together and return to the Ancient Wasteland Domain!
This was because she held a secret map that revealed a path that led back to the Ancient Wasteland Domain, which would allow Lin Xun and the others to cross the barrier between the worlds and reenter the Ancient Wasteland Domain again.
After finding out this, Lin Xun couldn't help from being astonished again. Miss A’hu...was so extraordinary!
