This voice belonged to the True Martial Saint Lord.

"What?"

"The Netherworld? What is that?"

"Is our universe, indeed, not the only one? The Netherworld, could it be another universe?"

"The strong ones from the three great families took away what sacred treasure? Could it be that spiritual type sacred treasure that can affect the souls of sages?"

Upon hearing this voice, all Cultivators' faces changed dramatically, exclaiming in shock.

They realized that something capable of making the True Martial Saint Lord say such words must be no small matter.

...

Far from the space they had just left, a streak of light wrapped around two figures was rapidly traversing the universe.

Without the power of teleportation or moving, a rich spatial force that felt round and perfect gave the impression of an adept Cultivator, one who could travel tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of li, or even tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of light-years, in a single step.

But the distance this streak of light covered in a single flash spanned tens of millions of light-years, even billions.

It greatly shocked Lin Yun's heart.

Although he had anticipated that the True Martial Saint Lord was powerful, it was only then that he truly understood just how formidable the True Martial Saint Lord was. Being able to traverse space from such a great distance, and so swiftly, was a testament to his incredible strength.

This was not merely spatial travel, it also disregarded various environmental factors, something not just any sage could achieve, as far as Lin Yun was aware.

Initially, Lin Yun had suspected that the True Martial Saint Lord had let those nine sage powerhouses escape without killing any of them, perhaps really as some of those sages speculated, that the True Martial Saint Lord had achieved that level of strength through some special method and couldn't consistently use it, which was why he allowed the sages to leave.

But now, Lin Yun's speculation was greatly reduced.

At the same time, Lin Yun was curious about the words the True Martial Saint Lord had left behind just now.

He had also heard what the True Martial Saint Lord had said over there.

"Saint Lord, do the words you spoke just now mean..." With this thought, Lin Yun also asked, curiously.

"This world is vast, with countless universes like our own, as numerous as the stars in the sky, the grains of sand in the sea, and with everything subject to reincarnation. The Netherworld oversees the reincarnation of all life in the world, hence, all universes are connected to the Netherworld in some way.

The powerhouses from the three great families took something from our universe that was suppressing a connection point with the Netherworld, causing a certain degree of connection to form between the Netherworld and this universe."

"Just now, I was attempting to repair that piece of space, but it proved far more challenging to mend than I had imagined. As I was fixing it, I saw that you were nearly killed by them, so I abandoned the repair and came to save you. Now, that space has collapsed, and this universe will likely enter a period of chaos.

As to what the final outcome will be, I do not know," the True Martial Saint Lord said softly, with a light smile.

"What?"

Listening to the information revealed by the True Martial Saint Lord, Lin Yun was extremely shocked.

This world is so vast, with countless universes just like our own?

Although he had faintly suspected that there were other universes beyond this one, the actual number far surpassed his guesses!

If so, as the True Martial Saint Lord said, this world is indeed too vast!

And the following information, the Netherworld controls the reincarnation of all life in the world, all universes are connected to the Netherworld—well, the status, strength, and influence of that Netherworld can only be imagined!

Perhaps, if the Netherworld were to sneeze, this universe would have to shudder!

Now, a connection point between this universe and the Netherworld has been destroyed by the strong ones of the three great families, the shock of which can be easily imagined!

Hearing the True Martial Saint Lord speak of abandoning the repair of that space to save him, Lin Yun couldn't help but feel deeply touched. What had he done to deserve the True Martial Saint Lord's sacrifice of such a significant matter for his sake?

At the same time, he seemed to understand why, despite the lengthy battle with those powerhouses, the Cultivators from the Immortal Origin Holy Land had not come to save him, and why the True Martial Saint Lord had come at the moment when he was about to die.

He had suspected whether the other party had some ulterior motive to hold a favor over him... Now, he understood.

And he felt ashamed for having such thoughts. The True Martial Saint Lord had forsaken a great matter to save him, yet he had doubted him?

Truly the mindset of a petty man to measure the heart of a gentleman!

"You needn't overthink it. That connection point was harder to repair than I had anticipated, and I doubted I could fix it, which is why I gave up; consider it a calamity for this universe," said the True Martial Saint Lord with a smile just then.

"Regardless, Lin Yun owes you his thanks for putting aside such a significant matter to come to my rescue." Hearing the True Martial Saint Lord's explanation and amiable words, Lin Yun couldn't help but feel warmed and once again performed a respectful bow, saying even more reverently.

"There's no need to thank me yet, I also have something I would like your help with, you'll know once you meet the Holy Mother," the True Martial Saint Lord said, shaking his head slightly.

"Alright, we're now near where those people close to you are, take a look if you want to speak with them first..." Just then, before Lin Yun could say anything else, the True Martial Saint Lord looked up ahead and spoke.
