Chapter 728: Green Touring Palace’s New Sect Master

Translator: CKtalon Editor: CKtalon

Qin Yun was still seated on Mt. Lightning Roar’s mountaintop cultivating when a voice suddenly sounded in his mind. “Disciple, quickly come to Green Touring Palace.”

“Master?” Qin Yun’s eyes opened.

During this studying of the changes to the Three Realms, the key result was his enlightenment in the Great Dao of Yin and Yang. Now that he already gained this insight, he was spending the past month consolidating his strength and fusing the Great Dao of Yin and Yang into the Misty Rain Array to enhance his defensive strength, trapping abilities, and offensive strength. Naturally, he could stop at any time.

“Master has suddenly summoned me? It likely has to do with the changes to the Three Realms,” thought Qin Yun. Immediately, an avatar flew out and headed for Green Touring Palace.

…

Green Touring Palace.

The moment Qin Yun arrived, he sensed the location of his master. It was on the boundary of the Green Touring Palace’s floating continent. Numinous Treasure was seated there, calmly watching the clouds tumble.

“Master.” Qin Yun bowed reverently when he came near.

“I’ll be leaving the Three Realms,” said Numinous Treasure.

Qin Yun’s heart tightened.

Leaving the Three Realms?

“Master, why the sudden need to leave the Three Realms?” Qin Yun recalled the changes to the Three Realms and inquired, “Is it because of the changes of the Three Realms?”

Numinous Treasure nodded and said, “Fiend Ancestor Black Lotus instigated the Daoist-Fiend war, causing countless Daoist, Buddhist, and fiendish cultivators to perish. After their deaths, their powers returned to the world, lessening the burden on the Three Realms. We thought the few of us would be able to remain in the Three Realms for another few million years, but Amita’s breakthrough has caused the Three Realms to have a total of seven Heavenly Dao realm existences. The burden on the Three Realms has greatened drastically, thereby directly causing the change to the Three Realms.”

“The Three Realms’ Heavenly Dao knows what it cannot handle, resulting in direct change.

“It reduced the Heaven and Earth spiritual energies in the Three Realms, reducing the number of cultivators drastically, making it impossible to cultivate in many Small Worlds,” said Numinous Treasure. “Furthermore, it will be chasing all seven of us Heavenly Dao realm fogies! Once we leave, the burden will be much more relaxed. It’s possible that the Three Realms might even enter a self-regulating state, and that would be truly a blessing in disguise.”

Qin Yun nodded slightly.

The Three Realms itself was constantly drawing on the powers in the Chaos to provide for the countless living beings that lived there.

If the absorption could match the expenditure, the Three Realms would not continue weakening. That would indeed be a joyous event for the countless beings in the Three Realms.

The Three Realms in its former state… was constantly in its waning phase.

“The Heavenly Dao will seek balance,” said Qin Yun. “I believe after this change, the Three Realms will last for eternity.”

“Yes.” Numinous Treasure Dao Ancestor nodded and said, “This change in the Three Realms happened very quickly. In just a short month, the Heaven and Earth spiritual energies were drastically reduced. I sensed that the Three Realms are beginning to force the few of us out, and this expulsion is gradually growing stronger. If I’m not wrong, in seven days, if we haven’t left, the Three Realms will expel us completely.”

“Seven days?” Qin Yun was alarmed. That was too soon.

“Seven days is enough,” said Numinous Treasure. “Having cultivated for so long, the thing I’m most worried about has been all my disciples. But with your appearance, I’ve been a lot more relieved. With you around, Green Touring Palace will not collapse.”

“I will definitely do my best,” said Qin Yun immediately.

“I’ve said before that I would make you be the new sect master of Green Touring Palace,” said Numinous Treasure. “The time is now. Today, I’ll inform all the disciples that we will be holding a sect master transfer ceremony tomorrow! You will succeed me as sect master.”

Qin Yun could sense the urgency of the matter, but he still said reverently, “Yes, I will definitely not disappoint you.”
