All Realms and Worlds: The Lost Home

Above the void, Pei Shaoyu was covered in wounds, yet his posture remained upright.

He gazed at the distant Earth, his eyes showing no fear, no reluctance, only a resolute calm.

Having experienced the deadly battle with the Fifth Legion and the protection of the Earth's will, he knew better than anyone that the Origin Realm's ambitions would never stop there.

To protect the wanderers of Earth, to ensure the road home is completely unobstructed, and to end this battle that spans countless time and space, he must risk everything.

"Sentinel Wei Yu".

Pei Shaoyu's voice, though not loud, pierced through the void and clearly reached Wei Yu's ears in Starfall City.

Wei Yu shuddered, his eyes filled with solemnity: "I'm here!"

He had fought for many years in this life and had seen countless people like this—a resolute determination to sever all ties and rush towards ultimate sacrifice.

Pei Shaoyu slowly raised his hand, and a dazzling ball of light rose from between his eyebrows. Within the ball of light was boundless power of authority, which was all the authority he had held over the years to lead all the wanderers of Earth and to oversee the Homecoming Plan.

"From this day forward, the plan to return home is entirely in your hands."

Pei Shaoyu's tone was calm and firm, without the slightest ripple, yet carrying an unquestionable authority: "All the authority over the sentries, and the deployment of all the wanderers, are yours to decide."

The ball of light merged into the void and flew rapidly towards Starfall City, heading towards Wei Yu's brow, where it instantly merged into him.

Wei Yu felt a surge of immense power enter his body, and countless pieces of information and authority exploded in his mind, causing him to tremble all over.

"This is..." Wei Yu suddenly looked up, clearly knowing what Pei Shaoyu was about to do.

"This power should have been yours! The plan to return home also depends on you! You can't..."

"I can no longer lead them on this path."

Pei Shaoyu interrupted him, a hint of tenderness flashing in his eyes, which was then replaced by resolve: "My path has come to an end. But you have a long way to go. The journey home for the wanderers of Earth needs your continued guidance."

He paused, then looked back at Earth, his tone heavy and solemn: "Furthermore, I hereby formally return the position of World Lord, which symbolizes the authority of the Earth world, to Mother Earth."

As soon as he finished speaking, Pei Shaoyu formed a hand seal and silently chanted an obscure and difficult-to-understand incantation.

A golden beam of light rose from his body, soaring into the sky, piercing through countless layers of void, and reaching the core of the Earth.

Within that pillar of light lay the pure authority of the world, the authority he had taken from the will of Earth to protect the wanderers and gather power. Now, he had returned it to Earth intact.

"Buzz—!"

A deep rumble echoed across the Earth, causing the entire planet to tremble slightly.

Auspicious clouds rose from every corner of the earth, gathering into a golden sea of ​​clouds, and slowly drifted towards Pei Shaoyu in the void, as if responding to his gift, and as if bidding him farewell.

Wei Yu stood there, trembling. He knew that Pei Shaoyu was giving up everything, giving up his life's work, and giving up all the glory he had as a leader.

But he had no right to stop it. He could only keep Pei Shaoyu's instructions firmly in mind and secretly vow in his heart that he must complete the homecoming plan, protect the wanderers on Earth, and live up to Pei Shaoyu's efforts.

Pei Shaoyu returned the power of the Realm Lord, and his aura instantly weakened.

Without the support of the world's authority, his Shattered Realm began to loosen and showed signs of decline—after all, his realm was inherently unstable due to the constraints of the contract.

But he had already come up with a plan.

Pei Shaoyu slowly closed his eyes, and a black rune appeared between his brows. The rune exuded a strange and powerful aura. It was the forbidden technique he had painstakingly found from countless timelines—the Locking Realm Technique.

This forbidden technique can forcibly fix a cultivator's realm. Even if all support is lost and the source is exhausted, the realm will not fall. The price is that the cultivator's own divine soul source is burned, and they will never be able to break through again.

"With my divine soul as the guide, and forbidden techniques as the lock, I solidify my Shattered Realm, ensuring it will never fall!"

Pei Shaoyu's voice was slightly hoarse, but incredibly firm. The incantation he uttered grew faster and more obscure.

The black runes instantly swelled, transforming into a black light shield that enveloped his entire body.

Within the light shield, countless patterns flowed rapidly, constantly penetrating his body, locking in his realm, and repairing his loosened origin.

"Pfft—!"

The moment the forbidden technique was activated, Pei Shaoyu spat out a mouthful of blood, his face turned ashen, and his muscles twitched violently as he endured unimaginable pain.

The excruciating pain of his soul being burned was like thousands of steel needles piercing his mind, almost causing him to faint.

But he did not waver in the slightest. He gritted his teeth and continued to activate the forbidden technique until the black light shield completely merged into his body, until his Shattered Realm became extremely stable and showed no signs of loosening.

The moment the forbidden technique was completed, Pei Shaoyu slowly opened his eyes, a trace of weariness flashing in them, but more so, a sense of relief.

Once his realm is stable, even if he loses all his support, even if he sacrifices everything, he can still maintain the strength of the Shattered Realm and fight for the last piece of sky for the wanderers of Earth.

Next comes the final step – the sacrifice.

Pei Shaoyu raised his hand, and countless rays of light appeared in his palm. Each ray of light represented a power, a gift bestowed upon him by Mother Earth across countless timelines.

He possesses a divine eye that can see through all things, a self-healing system that can quickly recover, a time-space cheat that can control time and space, a power-boosting cheat that can enhance combat power, and countless other powerful abilities that he has accidentally acquired in various timelines.

These abilities have accompanied him through countless battles, guiding countless wanderers of Earth to find hope in desperate situations. They are his strongest reliance and also the deepest love of Mother Earth.

But now, he is going to sacrifice all of it.

"Mother Earth, thank you for your protection over the countless years."

Pei Shaoyu murmured to himself, his eyes filled with gratitude, "Today, I will sacrifice everything you have given me in exchange for enough power to clear the last obstacles for the wanderers of Earth and pave the final journey home."

As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly raised his hand and pushed all the light in his palm into the void.

Those rays of light converged in the void, transforming into a massive ball of light. Within this ball of light lay boundless energy, radiating dazzling light that illuminated the entire void.

"Sacrifice!"

Pei Shaoyu let out a low shout, and a rune reappeared between his brows, urging the huge ball of light to burn and be sacrificed.

The ball of light slowly burned, and countless energies poured into Pei Shaoyu's body. His aura began to rise rapidly, climbing from the first level of the Shattered Realm, to the second level, the third level... until the ninth level of the Shattered Realm, infinitely approaching the peak of the Shattered Realm!

But then, an accident happened.

Suddenly, countless faint voices echoed in the void. These voices came from countless timelines, from countless Earths on the verge of destruction, and from countless wanderers of Earth on the verge of death.

"Navigator, I offer my entire life's destiny as a sacrifice to you!"

"I offer my very essence as a sacrifice to you, asking only that you protect our Earth and our wandering souls!"

"I offer my world's authority as a sacrifice to you, praying only that the road home will no longer be arduous, that the wanderers of Earth may return home soon!"

One voice after another converged, resounding throughout the myriad realms, carrying boundless piety and endless anticipation, slowly gathering towards Pei Shaoyu.

Pei Shaoyu was shocked, his eyes filled with disbelief.

He never imagined that, in countless unknown and known timelines, there would be so many Earths, so many wanderers of Earth, who, in the moment before their destruction, chose to sacrifice everything for him.

Countless golden streams of energy surged forth from countless timelines, converging madly towards Pei Shaoyu like a tidal wave.

Those currents of energy possess fortune, spirit, origin, and world authority. Each current contains immense power and represents the deepest hopes and gifts of countless wanderers on Earth.

These powers, along with the power he gained by sacrificing his own abilities, merged and surged wildly within his body, constantly enhancing his strength.

His aura surged once again, breaking through the shackles of the ninth level of the Shattered Realm and reaching the peak of the Shattered Realm. Moreover, a completely new aura began to emerge around him, an aura that surpassed the Shattered Realm and was the prototype of a completely new realm!

"Buzz—!"

The moment all the sacrificial power merged into Pei Shaoyu's body, the entire universe trembled violently.

Throughout the myriad realms, the sounds of drums and gongs resounded, their powerful and solemn beat echoing in every corner, as if celebrating the birth of a new god.

Auspicious clouds rose from every corner of the myriad realms, converging into a boundless sea of ​​clouds. Above the sea of ​​clouds, rays of light shone in countless directions, and auspicious clouds stretched out in thousands of strands. Countless spirit birds darted through the sea of ​​clouds, emitting melodious calls.
