The Place of Near Dao was a place even closer to the Dao than the Myriad Heavens and Worlds. Even Other Shore great powers had to arrive there in person to understand everything within it.
However, whether it was the upper levels of the Nine Heavens or places like the Origin of Life and Death, entering them now would likely draw attention with the methods currently under his control.
Thus, Xu Yue did not choose a traditional Place of Near Dao. Instead, he chose an area that was not one, yet was equally special.
Earth!
As the sole Perfect Dao Fruit and Dao Venerate's Ferry of World Crossing, Earth was not an orthodox place near the Dao, but it possessed its own unique qualities.
With the portion of Other Shore traits Xu Yue currently possessed, as long as his true body remained on Earth and did not do anything reckless, he could hide perfectly in this era.
Although the Real World currently appeared to have only three restricted Other Shores, for beings at the Other Shore level, returning early from chaos actually had far less impact than one might imagine.
The reason they all chose to enter chaos and sleep was merely because they wanted to remain in perfect condition, unwilling to suffer even the slightest effect.
After all, whether it was the struggle for the Dao Fruit or anything else, the slightest difference in a contest between Other Shores could directly affect the outcome.
Under such circumstances, if he became confident that his current strength could clash head-on with an Other Shore and started running wild in the Real World—
He would very likely find himself surrounded and watched by numerous Other Shores.
After all, in a sense, his side could also be considered another path to transcendence.
