”Soul Faith Path…” Yan Zaizen stood in the emptiness that was the Border Expanse as the vortex faded behind him. In the myriad realms and numerous heavens, there was countless paths. Not only that, a person could even create a new path!

However, this path left him in fright. What was the definition of faith? Belief! Could it be that this man grew stronger the more souls believed in his own soul? Or the more souls he earnestly believed in?

Could it be similar to the Soul Source Path that is defined by interpersonal comprehension? As you comprehend more about yourself, the more power you can exhibit and the further your soul developed. It could even become immortal.

This path he understood. It was like the dao or the heavenly law, it was like comprehending instincts and memories and developing your own personality based law. This was probably why it was a common path in the 27th Heaven - its ease of cultivation.

He had a distinct feeling that Eloah was truly immortal, at least in soul. When he spoke earlier, he mentioned Xiha and his family leaving through the inter-heavenly spatial formation, but that had to be forty million years ago! Yet, he still guarded that location?

A flash of amber-gold flickered through his gaze as the reverence he felt for Eloah was destroyed! It was replaced with calm respect. He had an instinctive feeling that developing fostering reverence towards Eloah would subject him to untold consequences. With a deep breath, he looked at the realm from afar.

His eyes widened and he took a step back. At the moment, there were hundreds of modified realmships within the realm. These realmships were divided by color and to the farthest end of the realm from him, a spatial vortex was surrounded by dozens of incredibly large realmships.

From this vortex, Yan Zaizen could see ships of varying sizes enter and exit repeatedly.

The realmships had different marks, but the realm was divided cleanly by what seemed to be two factions. On one side, a single insignia was etched on all the realmships clearly and brazenly. It was a black flame with a holistic bird within. The bird looked like a Phoenix but it had four wings instead of two.

The other side had various insignias but they were closely packed and obviously united.

”A war? A realm war?” This was the first time he witnessed the calm before the storm of a realm war. He had read about it and even knew that the Elysian Realm was on the brink of it before his slumber, but seeing the modified realmships equipped with cannons and sharp objects left him feeling intrigued!

”Is this what Eloah meant? If so, it makes sense…” When he recalled Eloah's words warning him that it may not be as easy as he assumed, he couldn't help but smile.

He was right.

Didn't this make things easier?

He stepped forward, easily reducing the distance between him and the realm.

Bam!

”What?” Yan Zaizen felt a solid force impede his movements just as he was at the border that divided the realm and the Border Expanse. A soft ripple radiated outwards from his point of impact.

”Is this?” Inspecting the solid construct thoroughly, he discovered that it was a very thin, nearly transparent film of energy. A barrier!

This energy was suffused with a stable aura, but it didn't seem to exude a heavenly aura. Despite this, it felt as if it related to the myriad laws beneath it. ”The barrier covers the entire realm?” Inquiring, Yan Zaizen flashed ten thousand li away.

Stopping, his palm touched the thin film. His brows furrowed slightly, ”It's covering the entire realm like a bubble.” After deducing this, he felt intrigued. This barrier covered the entirety of the Major Canis Realm. Was it for protection against the invaders or to keep away opportunist of other realms from interfering?

His body flashed backward, as he did, spatial-attributed true-essence surged around him. With a smile, he stepped forward and merged into the spatial void.
