Chapter 1481: The Reincarnation Large World

Hearing these words, Xu Fan was deeply shaken.

“What kind of price must we pay to secure this spot for the human race? Will these resources need to be repaid by the human race in the future?” Xu Fan asked the Holy Lord of the Heavenly Merchant Clan.

“Holy Lord Xu, let’s not joke around. Of course, these will need to be repaid.”

“Even if our two clans are on good terms, the Heavenly Merchant Clan cannot afford to make a loss.”

“Naturally, the Heavenly Merchant Clan wouldn’t expect the human race to make a loss either,” the Holy Lord of the Heavenly Merchant Clan said with a faint smile.

“Over the endless Epochs, my Heavenly Merchant Clan has acquired six Supreme Divine Artifacts, each imbued with the supreme law. While they may not be enough to secure an additional spot, they are highly coveted in the Chaotic Mist Area.”

“If Holy Lord Xu desires this spot, I am willing to offer four of these artifacts in exchange with the Chaotic Mist Area.”

“In return, the human race must provide six Supreme Divine Artifacts and agree to one condition,” the Holy Lord of the Heavenly Merchant Clan explained, his gaze fixed on Xu Fan.

“What condition?”

Xu Fan considered the exchange of four for six acceptable, but the condition was what truly mattered.

“The human race must bind itself to the Heavenly Merchant Clan, forming a permanent alliance. If the Heavenly Merchant Clan falls, so too shall the human race.”

“And if the human race destroys the Heavenly Merchant Clan?” Xu Fan immediately countered.

“We will provide full support, but the Heavenly Merchant Clan must not be wiped out,” the Holy Lord of the Heavenly Merchant Clan replied.

Hearing this, Xu Fan couldn’t help but chuckle inwardly.

The sound of this calculation, he thought, could probably be heard across other Chaotic Mist Areas.

“Let’s revise the condition. A permanent alliance is acceptable, but we cannot share the same fate of life and death,” Xu Fan said lightly, picking up a chess piece and transforming it into a Heavenly Calculation of Chaos, placing it on the board.

“Besides, there will be times when I am the one destroying while you remain alive.”

At Xu Fan’s words, the Holy Lord of the Heavenly Merchant Clan fell silent.

“Very well, we can change the condition. In times of crisis for either clan, the top-tier powerful beings of both sides must use their full strength, with the Chaotic Mist Area as witness.”

After a long pause, the Holy Lord of the Heavenly Merchant Clan added,

“Additionally, the six Supreme Divine Artifacts will become seven. This is my final condition.”

“The condition is a bit excessive, but I can accept it.”

“Let’s arrange to sign the contract with the Chaotic Mist Area,” Xu Fan said.

Truthfully, Xu Fan didn’t place much importance on a spot for a Holy Lord-level powerful being.

He simply saw this as a way to save himself a great deal of trouble and effort.

As for the spot going to the human race, Xu Fan was certain it wouldn’t land on him.

But that didn’t matter to him; as long as it benefited the human race, that was enough.

“We’ll need to wait some time. Those four Supreme Divine Artifacts must still be retrieved from the Primordial Chaos Zone.”

“It will likely take around ten thousand years,” the Holy Lord of the Heavenly Merchant Clan said.

“Ten thousand years…”

This moment perfectly coincided with the eve of his ascension to the status of a Great Saint of Chaos.

“Alright, ten thousand years from now, our two clans will sign the contract.”

Once the agreement was settled, they turned their full attention to the Game of Realms.

With a time acceleration of thirty thousand years, Xu Fan secured victory without a hitch.

“Holy Lord Xu’s chess skills are truly profound; every match with you brings new insights,” the Holy Lord of the Heavenly Merchant Clan said with a smile.

“Your skills are equally impressive; I merely rely on my ability to counter,” Xu Fan replied modestly.

In truth, he wanted to say that the Holy Lord’s chess skills were rather poor.

After concluding the Game of Realms, Xu Fan returned to the Hidden Spirit Sect within the Three Thousand Realms.

Meanwhile, beyond the Three Thousand Realms, a massive chaotic calamity was gathering.

Within this calamity, Li Xingci transformed into the Reincarnation Large World.

“Fourth Brother has progressed faster than I anticipated; the human race now has another Great Saint of Chaos,” Xu Fan remarked with a faint smile.

“Impressive, isn’t it?” Wang Yulun’s proud voice chimed in.

“What does that have to do with you?” Xu Fan glanced at Wang Yulun.

“Of course it does! Whether you admit it or not, this is my bloodline,” Wang Yulun said with a grin.

“Once Xingci becomes a Great Saint of Chaos, many things will become much easier.”

Seeing Wang Yulun’s puzzled expression, Xu Fan continued, “Xingci cultivates the supreme law of chaos. Upon advancing to a Great Saint of Chaos, he will internally manifest as a large world.”

“This large world can extract the causal power specific to the human race from the chaotic River of Time.”

“From then on, even Holy Lord-level powerful beings seeking to erase the human race’s causality would first need to breach this large world,” Xu Fan explained.

“That’s incredible! So, does this mean the human race will no longer have to worry about causality?” Wang Yulun asked, astonished.

“You could say that.”

As the chaotic calamity continued, the Reincarnation Large World, now embodied by Li Xingci, seemed to be leisurely soaking within the calamity.

Three months later, Li Xingci appeared in the courtyard.

“I pay my respects to Master!” Li Xingci said with excitement.

He never imagined that a single moment of insight would propel him directly to the status of a Great Saint of Chaos.

“Rise; as a Great Saint of Chaos, such grand gestures are unnecessary,” Xu Fan said with a warm smile.

“I will always be your disciple, Master. Kneeling before you is only right,” Li Xingci insisted.

Xu Fan gently helped him to his feet.

“With the supreme law of reincarnation, I will guide you to master the realm path and place your Cycle of Rebirth within the human territory.”

“Then, I will find a way to harness the power of your Reincarnation Large World to extract the human race’s causality from the chaotic River of Time and integrate it into your realm.”

“In time, your own realm will advance rapidly, and eventually, you’ll even be able to summon the causal powers of others from the chaotic large world to aid in battle.”

Xu Fan outlined the path ahead for Li Xingci.

“Master, I understand,” Li Xingci nodded.

“However, I have one request: when you leave this chaotic place, please take my Cycle of Rebirth with you.”

“Who told you about this?” Xu Fan asked.

“It was the third senior brother. He mentioned that your roots aren’t here and that you’ll eventually return to the chaotic land that belongs to you,” Li Xingci replied.

“The first part is correct; I should return to check on things.”

“As for the second part, let me tell you this: the Three Thousand Realms are my home.”

“Even if I return, I will bring the entire human race with me,” Xu Fan said lightly, his thoughts briefly drifting to the stone door.

“Wherever you are, Master, that is my home,” Li Xingci declared.

“I’m over a million years old; do you think I’d leave you behind? When I go, I’ll take all of you with me.”

Looking at Li Xingci’s earnest expression, Xu Fan felt a sudden wave of emotion. It seemed he was nearing a million years old.

If he counted the time acceleration, he was indeed a million-year-old man.

Yet, at this age and level, by the standards of the chaotic land, he might not even be considered a child.

“Even at a million years, I still feel like a child in your presence, Master.”

“Don’t talk about being a child. If you count your descendants, there are probably nearly ten million of them,” Xu Fan quipped.

Hearing this, Li Xingci scratched his head and said, “I never expected Chufan and his wife to be so prolific.”

“Their descendants are also deeply committed to the cause of the human race’s growth.”
