Moments later in Green Touring Palace.
“Master.” Qin Yun bowed respectfully.
The Heavenly Lord of Numinous Treasure sat cross-legged on a bed of clouds as he slowly opened his eyes. He understood the instant he saw Qin Yun. “Rushou came to you?”
“He invited me to kill a powerful being together with him in the Chaos spatial rift,” Qin Yun reported respectfully.
“Did you agree?” inquired Numinous Treasure.
“I’m still pondering over it,” said Qin Yun.
Numinous Treasure nodded slightly. With a flip of his hand, he took out a book and tossed it gently. As the book flew to Qin Yun, he said, “This book contains information regarding the Chaos spatial rift. You can make a decision after reading it!”
Qin Yun extended his hand to grab the book.
“I haven’t told you all this while because I wished for you to try your best at accumulating merit in the Three Realms,” said Numinous Treasure. “I didn’t want you to risk your life in the Chaos spatial rift until the final moment.”
“Risk my life?” Qin Yun looked at his master.
“In the Three Realms, you are practically unstoppable. Even the Fiend Ancestor, Black Lotus, can’t kill you despite his wishes to do so.” Numinous Treasure said seriously, “But once you enter the Chaos spatial rift, it’s difficult to tell what will happen to you. The powerful beings of another universe have unfathomable means. They do not cultivate as immortals, Buddhists, or fiends. For them to dare entrench themselves in the spatial tides to kill other powerful beings, it implies how they are not to be antagonized. Perhaps, there might be one that’s stronger than Hou Yi or you.”
Qin Yun nodded in enlightenment. “I understand. I’ll consider it carefully.”
“Do so; your decision is yours to make,” said Numinous Treasure.
“Then Master, I shall bid you farewell.” Qin Yun bowed respectfully before leaving.
Numinous Treasure watched Qin Yun depart.
“Unfortunately, there’s no way of entering the Chaos spatial rift after reaching the Heavenly Dao realm,” thought Numinous Treasure. “When we leave the Three Realms in the future, we will be able to enter the boundless Chaos and explore it. I wonder if we will get lost, never to return.”
From a particular point of view, Numinous Treasure envied the juniors. The juniors could enter spatial rifts and head to other domains. The Three Realms did not stop them from doing so.
As for the those at the Heavenly Dao realm, their every action suffered rejection.
The Three Realms rejected them, and so did the Chaos spatial rift.
“Before I leave, I hope to see Qin Yun transcend the Itinerant Immortal tribulations.” Numinous Treasure held hope and anticipation.
...
Heavenly realm, Mt. Lightning Roar.
Qin Yun returned to his wife and guided his children, granddaughter, and disciple in their sword arts.
“Sword Immortal Qin, the one who abhors evil, hasn’t been out punishing evil and doing good these past few days. Nor are you cultivating in seclusion. Are you just going to stay home and accompany me?” Yi Xiao smiled as she poured some tea for him and handed it to Qin Yun.
Qin Yun sat there and drank the tea while smiling at his wife. “My avatar has been around constantly all these years, available for your summoning at any time.”
“It feels different.” Yi Xiao laughed and said, “To have the mighty Sword Immortal Qin’s real body here accompanying me, I feel overwhelmed by the honor.”
Qin Yun looked at his wife and chuckled. He said, “In what is to come, my avatar will no longer be able to stay in the manor. All the avatars I have in the Three Realms will dissipate as well.”
“All the avatars will dissipate?” The color in Yi Xiao’s face drained. “Brother Yun, why?”
To have all avatars dissipate, the common reason was—death!
“Don’t worry. No one in the Three Realms can kill me. I plan on heading into the Chaos, beyond the Three Realms. There is a Chaos spatial rift there,” said Qin Yun. “I received the invitation of the ancient deity, Rushou, to head to the Chaos spatial rift. Once I enter, all connections with the outside world would be severed. Therefore, my avatars will lose connection with my body and can no longer be maintained.”
“What kind of place is it that prevents your avatar from being maintained?” Yi Xiao was alarmed. She had never heard of such a thing.
Her husband was a perfected Great Dao. He was able to maintain his avatars in the Three Realms even while he was in the Chaos.
“The Chaos spatial rift is very unique,” said Qin Yun. “After entering, it’s impossible to contact the outside world. Therefore, I have to tell you, lest you worry.”
“Is there any danger?” inquired Yi Xiao.
“Yes.” Qin Yun nodded. “However, the danger isn’t too great. If Rushou, an ancient deity who has lived for so many years, dares to enter, I’ll definitely dare to as well.”
“Is there a need to?” asked Yi Xiao.
“Yes.” Qin Yun nodded. “I’m still lacking great amounts of merit needed to obtain a Merit Cardinal treasure. That place is most suitable for me to earn great merit. After my Misty Rain Sword becomes a Merit Cardinal treasure, the chances of me transcending the tribulations will increase exponentially.”
“How long will you be gone?” Yi Xiao pressed.
“No idea,” Qin Yun said. “Under normal circumstances, A hundred plus years would be sufficient. If something unexpected happens, it will be hard to tell.”
Yi Xiao lowered her head as she sipped her tea. Nodding, she said, “I understand. You don’t have to worry about the household. Go do what you need to do.”
Qin Yun extended his hand to grasp his wife’s hand. “Xiaoxiao, if I can transcend the Itinerant Immortal tribulations, there will be no need for you to worry for me ever again.”
Yi Xiao looked at her husband and smiled. “Brother Yun, that’s what you said.”
On the same day.
Qin Yun did not tell his children before leaving silently as his wife sent him off.
“Remember, be careful,” said Yi Xiao.
“Wait for my return.” Qin Yun nodded. Following that, he stepped across the void and vanished.
Yi Xiao stood alone at the peak of Mt. Lightning Roar. His departure this time was different. Even his avatar wasn’t around. He had gone to the Chaos spatial rift beyond the Three Realms. Yi Xiao was filled with worry, but she understood why he had to go... Qin Yun was making preparations for his future Itinerant Immortal tribulations.

Three Realms. Ordinary flight would take forever due to the infinite distance.
Only mighty figures who had sufficiently grasp over space-time could find the boundary of the Three Realms.
“Whoosh.”
Deep in space, there was a splatter of crimson. It was jiggling like a fetus’s membrane and it was the boundary of the Three Realms.
“This is my first time at the boundary of the Three Realms.” Qin Yun looked at the endless boundary of the Three Realms. With a step, he would pass through the spatial boundary and enter a realm beyond the Three Realms.
Whoosh~
Like a mortal jumping into the water from land.
The environment was completely different!
The interior of the Three Realms was filled with Heaven and Earth spiritual energies and there was the Three Realms’ Heavenly Dao protection. But once he passed through the Three Realms boundary, he would lose the protection and suffer the obstreperous surge of the Chaos.
“Oh? This power of Chaos is being constantly absorbed by the Three Realms?” Qin Yun saw that the Three Realms’ membrane was absorbing the power of Chaos. “Yet, the Three Realms is still weakening. Could it be that the power of Chaos does not give any fundamental help to the Three Realms?”
Qin Yun had extraordinary insight at present. He could sense that the Three Realms’ absorption of the power of Chaos did little for it.
The power of Chaos could not replenish the truly fundamental powers!
If he were to slay powerful beings of other universes and offer them to the Three Realms, it would likely be able to replenish some of its fundamental powers. That was how great merit could descend upon him.
“I wonder how Pangu split the heaven from earth to form the Three Realms back then,” thought Qin Yun. “Master and company have failed to do so even after reaching the Heavenly Dao realm.”
Sou!
After some thought, Qin Yun continued heading forward.
He was not worried about getting lost in the Chaos since the massive Three Realms was like a lighthouse in the fog. As long as he remained a certain distance from the Three Realms, he would be able to sense it.
Qin Yun could sense that space remained extensive in the void. With a step, he traversed immense distance and, after nearly twenty times, he arrived in front of Rushou’s cave abode. Qin Yun knew very well that the range of space he sensed wasn’t all of it. Heavenly Dao realm existences like his master could cover a much wider range with a thought. It would exceed the range that would have already left Qin Yun lost.
“Whoosh.” Qin Yun descended outside the cave abode.
“Sword Immortal Qin, you are the last. Brother Goumang arrived a long time ago.” A golden-armored Rushou smiled as he welcomed Qin Yun. Beside him was an azure-robed elder.
