868: In the Chaos Realm, find the Heni Sect

“By the way, when will the Gate of Creation open?”

A flying sword, like a streak of light, traversed the Boundless Chaos.

Gu Qing, with Youmeng's slender waist in his embrace, suddenly remembered the Gate of Creation.

As early as when he was still a Divine King in the Eternal Universe, he had been looking forward to the Gate of Creation opening.

Gu Qing had also wanted to travel to higher cultivation universe planes through the Gate of Creation.

However, plans couldn't keep up with changes.

Starry Sacred Mother directly sent him to the Origin Continent; he was now a Chaos Dao Lord, and the Gate of Creation still hadn't opened.

“It should be soon…” Youmeng leaned against his chest, her eyes closed as she murmured.

“Soon?”

Hearing this familiar answer, Gu Qing's lips twitched.

He had believed Youmeng's words back then, thinking that when Youmeng said 'soon,' it would be a few years.

Facts proved that he was still too young.

Gu Qing even felt a bit fortunate that he had met Starry Sacred Mother; otherwise, he would still be waiting bitterly in the Eternal Universe, eagerly anticipating the arrival of the Gate of Creation.

“Exactly how many more Yuanhui do we have to wait? Tell me,” Gu Qing asked calmly.

Even if Youmeng said they had to wait another hundred Yuanhui, he could accept it with equanimity.

“The Gate of Creation is a Great Dao treasure. Each opening is determined by Great Dao rules; anything below a Dao Ancestor cannot deduce any heavenly secrets.”

“Then how do you know the Gate of Creation is about to open?”

“You are also a Dao Lord now. Try to sense it yourself, deduce with all your might, and see if you can glimpse a sliver of heavenly secret.”

Youmeng didn't answer, letting Gu Qing deduce it himself.

Gu Qing quickly formed hand seals, his divine soul performing the same movements, deducing with all his might, seeking the heavenly secret of the Gate of Creation.

After a while, Gu Qing's divine soul vaguely sensed a void space, permeated with wisps of creation aura.

Seeing these creation auras, Gu Qing glimpsed a piece of information from them: this was the aura leaked by the Gate of Creation, indicating that the Gate of Creation was about to open.

Just as Gu Qing tried to deduce further, he found nothing.

“Do you understand now?”

“We can only sense that the Gate of Creation is about to open; there is no fixed time for when it will actually open.”

A faint smile appeared on Youmeng's serene face.

Gu Qing silently withdrew his hand, wrapped his arm around her slender waist, and fully controlled the flying sword.

Under his full-speed journey, it only took three days to reach the Chaos Realm.

“Strange…”

Gu Qing used his Dao Pupil, scanned the Heaven and Earth rules of the Chaos Realm, and muttered to himself.

The Heaven and Earth rules of the Chaos Realm were completely different from the rules of other universe planes.

The rules of other universe planes were all independent spaces, existing by relying on chaos.

However, the Heaven and Earth rules of the Chaos Realm seemed to be integrated with the rules of the Boundless Chaos; the Chaos Realm was the Chaotic Realm.

“Strictly speaking, the Chaos Realm is indeed the Chaotic Realm.”

Youmeng, being the most ancient existence, knew more than Starry Sacred Mother, she explained.

“A piece of Chaotic Fetal Membrane fell here, and just as it was about to evolve into a world like the Origin Continent, a Chaotic Vortex appeared, and the two merged.”

“Coupled with the many Chaotic treasures in the Chaotic Vortex, by a lucky coincidence, it merged with the Chaotic rules, forming the current Chaos Realm.”

“Moreover, due to the integration of the Chaotic Fetal Membrane's rules, it has given rise to many super continents like the Origin Continent, as well as multi-universe planes, and various forbidden lands…”

Gu Qing listened quietly, then said in surprise, “Doesn't this mean that the Chaos Realm is the supreme universe plane?”

“Yes.”

“But the Chaos Realm also has its drawbacks. Take a look yourself, aren't the Heaven and Earth rules very unstable?”

“The Chaos Realm has integrated many Chaotic treasures, with various Great Dao rules interwoven, inevitably causing the rules to be chaotic.”

“Furthermore, the Chaos Realm is teeming with experts, where the fittest survive, and the strong are revered, with no rules to speak of.”

“Many powerful experts, upon discovering universe planes or super continents, will try to refine them.”

“If they discover a Dao Seed like yours, they might even try to refine it.”

Youmeng slowly said.

Almost all seasoned experts knew the coordinates of the Chaos Realm, coming here to establish Dao traditions and comprehend the Great Dao.

The reason why the Great Dao Golden Lotus Artifact Spirit dared not bring Qin Zheng to the Chaos Realm, or even give Qin Zheng the coordinates of the Chaos Realm, was because there were too many experts here.

And it was too chaotic, a blatant survival of the fittest.

Gu Qing used his Dao Pupil, piercing through endless time and space to scan the Heaven and Earth rules, and indeed discovered the clues within.

Upon hearing Youmeng's answer, Gu Qing immediately gave up the idea of moving the Boundless Divine Sect to the Chaos Realm.

However, he could establish a branch sect here.

Or, wait until the day the disciples of the Boundless Divine Sect could roam freely in the Chaos Realm, then move the entire sect over, leaving a branch sect on the Origin Continent.

Thinking this, Gu Qing didn't forget the purpose of his trip and immediately deduced information about He Ni, Yan'er, and Mo Wantang.

Although he didn't find any traces of the mother and daughter, Gu Qing did deduce the Dao tradition left by He Ni.

In other words, He Ni had once appeared in the Chaos Realm.

With this thought, Gu Qing impatiently took Youmeng to the Dao tradition left by He Ni.

In a few breaths, Gu Qing and Youmeng appeared and stopped in front of a mountain gate.

“Great Thousand Sword Sect…”

A grand and solemn gate, like the Southern Heavenly Gate, stood between heaven and earth.

Four Dao patterns were carved on the plaque, containing the sword intent of the Great Thousand Sword Art.

“May I ask what brings the two seniors to our Sword Sect?”

The two Divine King disciples guarding the gate, seeing Gu Qing and Youmeng, their expressions changed slightly, and they respectfully cupped their fists in greeting.

Although Gu Qing and Youmeng did not reveal any aura, it was clear at a glance that they were extraordinary.

Youmeng was fine; she was merely exceedingly beautiful but did not show off her power.

Gu Qing, however, was completely different.

Wearing black and gold battle armor, he naturally exuded an aura of nobility. Standing casually, he seemed to be the center of heaven and earth, a supreme deity dominating the world.

Just one look at them filled the disciples with a sense of inferiority, as if humble mortals gazing up at a god of the Nine Heavens.

“I'm looking for He Ni.”

Gu Qing suppressed his inner excitement and slowly said.

The two disciples' faces changed drastically, and they immediately sent a message to the sect elders.

Upon receiving the news, the elders dared not delay and sent messages to all sect elders, including the Sect Master.

Soon, a group of thirty-six stunning women arrived, stepping through the air.

“Greetings, seniors.”

The thirty-six women performed a junior's bow, their expressions filled with apprehension.

Anyone looking for their Ancestral Master must be an expert of the same rank as their Ancestral Master.

If such an expert came to their door as a friend, that would be fine, but if they were an enemy, the entire sect would be annihilated in an instant.

“Where is He Ni?”

Gu Qing pressed on.

“Master and Junior Sister are not in the sect,” Leng Qingyun, the Sect Master, replied.

“Not here…”

A hint of disappointment flashed in Gu Qing's eyes.

However, since he had come all this way, he certainly couldn't return empty-handed just because of Leng Qingyun's words.

Gu Qing used his Dao Pupil to scan the Great Thousand Sword Sect, checking if He Ni had left anything behind.

As a result, he didn't even find He Ni's cave mansion.
