Chapter 1737: Might As Well Not Believe In Destiny

“And you? What do you want?” Qing Buyi looked at the purple dao palace.

“So you plan to concede?” A purple form manifested out of the palace. “My ambitions aren’t that lofty, just give me the seed of nothing from the destruction of the last world of sequence.”

Qing Buyi nodded. “It looks like you three really want to die.” He lowered his head and solemnly rolled up his sleeves, revealing his somewhat flabby arms.

“Qing Buyi, I admit that your abilities are impressive, but you face three supremes. If you don’t give way, you’ll die even if you have three heads and six arms!” sneered Esteemed Nebula as his golden haze began to solidify into a tangible body.

The three supremes and their dao palaces connected with each other, creating a world that was isolated from the outside world. Their strength could be fully released in this territory. While Esteemed Nebula was familiar with Qing Buyi, the other two were unaware of him. The former was an undeniable titan in the outside realm. He was the only one who dared call himself “Esteemed Nebula” out of all the supremes around, but not even the Morans or dragons had anything to say about that.

“Death is precisely what I want!” Qing Buyi leered at the three supremes and expanded his not-quite-muscular arms. They turned bulky and rippled with muscles; he clenched his now massive hands into fists and charged the three.

“Die!” The others didn’t hesitate either and met the young man in combat.

……

“It’s not out of line that they want the world of sequence and seed of nothing, but the dao palaces broke a long time ago. There’s only a bit of core essence left and they can’t be rebuilt from that. What does he want it for?” At the foot of Mount Astronomia, Lu Yun frowned faintly at the three balls of light struggling with Qing Buyi. He’d clearly heard the conversation between them.

“It’s the core essence that cannot be destroyed that’s most valuable,” came a soft sigh as Mo Yi came into view. She watched the great battle play out above them, trying very hard to recall something.

“You should go back to Fairylands,” Lu Yun said to her. “I’ve confined the reincarnation guardian, but there’s still an inspector somewhere.”

“The inspector won’t make trouble for me,” she shook her head. “You should try refining the six dao palaces and going to the outside realm.”

“Huh?” Lu Yun blinked.

“I’ve learned your formula dao too.” Mo Yi lowered her head and quietly made a few calculations, then said in a small voice, “I see no hope, no hope at all. I was able to see the future before. That future and the destiny that Ah Zhi derived all ended in this cycle. The world would continue, but at some point, I began to see only darkness. Complete, unbounded darkness.”

“When did that happen??” Lu Yun’s eyes widened. He couldn’t derive what direction the future might go in since he wasn’t skilled at formula destiny, but he didn’t doubt Mo Yi and Ah Zhi’s conclusions. While they might not be definitive, they indicated the general trend of events.

“When those three appeared.” Mo Yi lifted her chin at the three supremes. “It’s nothing to do with them, but something that will happen because of them.”

“Their dao palaces!” Lu Yun’s expression shifted. “They projected themselves here through their dao palaces, which means other people will imitate them! We need to kill them!” His eyes narrowed dangerously. “Kill them!”

“There’s no point,” Mo Yi shook his head. “People like them affect the entire situation with a slight move. Their actions here won’t have gone unnoticed… Even I didn’t think that the dao palace one forms after exceeding sequence can evade sequence and enter the Land of Reincarnation.”

“It’s my fault.” Lin Mo suddenly appeared with a hint of self-censure in her eyes. “I was the first one to enter this land with my dao palace. Nebula must’ve seen how I arrived and copied my actionse with his dao palace.”

When a major world had abruptly turned into a realm monster and rampaged through the outside realm after piercing through the barrier around the land, Mazu stepped forward to bring it down at the cost of her own life. She’d used her dao palace to bring the two of them back, and none of that was a secret. Many people in the outside realm were well aware of it, just that no one had cared about the Land of Reincarnation.

It wasn’t until the world of sequence matured that the Esteemed Nebula recalled what’d once happened and broke through the barrier with his own dao palace. He would be only the first of many who would visit in the same fashion.

“Qing Buyi is giving you five hundred years not for you to build your great dao, but for you to grow strong enough to defy the supremes that will be coming,” Mo Yi sighed. “But that’s impossible, five hundred years are too short. Therefore, the best way forward is for you to leave with all of the land’s hope.”

“My destiny is up to me, not heaven.” Lu Yun shook his head and heroically delivered what was actually a cliche saying. “The fate that you two see might not be real. There’s nothing that those from the outside can do about things in here. If they dare come inside, the only ending they’ll see is their death.”

He glanced at the six dao palaces in his hand. Their owners had come from the outside realm as well, but their final ending had been their demise.

Mo Yi and Lin Mo looked at each other, not knowing how to persuade Lu Yun otherwise. They stood at higher vantage points than him and saw further, farther out than he did.

“Plus, what’s the point of living if my world is destroyed and my home no more? Hope? Even if there’s hope to create another world, that would only be a foreign world to me. It wouldn’t mean anything, and it would mean even less to those who are dead,” Lu Yun murmured.

“Well said. Destiny doesn’t mean much to people like us.” The Dao King was suddenly present as well. His eyes flicked to Mo Yi and he muttered, “As opposed to wholly believing destiny, I might as well not believe in it. Our own efforts are the decisive factor…”

“What do you want to do?” Mo Yi’s expression shifted drastically and she looked, shocked, at the Dao King.

“I’ve died countless times for you, but I don’t know if that will happen again this time. Therefore, I must change everything.” A halo of light floated up over his head while the world of the mind from thirteen creation seeds drifted inside. “You originally created the Soul Dominion in an attempt to support the orders of this realm, but you failed. Now, however, I’ve found the way to support order through a mental world.”

“Mo Yi created the Soul Dominion?!” Lu Yun’s jaw dropped and he gaped at Mo Yi.

She walked forward and grabbed the Dao King’s hand. “If you die this time, I’ll die with you!”

She knew what he wanted to do!

etvolare's Thoughts

They just confessed their love to each other, didn't they? Why can't y'all just say "I like you" like normal people, instead of "I'm dying with you"?!
