As the Universe Turns - Chapter 1123
Chapter 1123 Yan Luo
“No rush, no rush …”
Old man Zi Yi looked at the top of the mountain and said, “Do you know what the Outer Heavens are?”
“Heaven beyond Heaven …”
Xiao Chen’s expression slightly froze. There were some memories of these three words in his mind, but they weren’t profound. In the past, he had rarely heard of them. However, he seemed to have seen these three words in some ancient books. However, there were very few records of them.
“Hehe …”
Old man Zi Yi looked at him with an expression of ignorance. He smiled and said, “I’ll tell you what this Heaven’s Beyond Heaven is right now. According to ancient legends, the world is infinite. There are nine heavens and ten worlds. The Ancient Oriental Cultivation World is only one of these ten worlds. As for the nine heavens, apart from Li Hentian, who is above the 33 heavens of the Heaven Realm, and Terminator Heaven, who is in the endless Purgatory of the Devil Realm, there is still one more day in the world. It is this Heaven’s Beyond Heaven …”
Hearing what he said, Xiao Chen vaguely understood that this Heavenly Beyond Heaven should be one of the Nine Heavens Ten Realms according to ancient legends.
“That’s right.”
Seeing his enlightenment, Old man Zi Yi said, He continued, “Although this Heavenly Beyond Heaven is in the Mortal World, it is completely separate from the entire ancient land of Xianyuan. Therefore, it can be considered a small world of its own. The Heavenly Beyond Heaven was originally condensed from all sorts of vulgar energy and demonic barriers in the world. As a result, most of the people living in it are evil and arrogant. However, the world has long since become indistinguishable between good and evil.”
He paused for a moment before continuing, “Back then, immortals and devils were in chaos, and it was difficult to distinguish between good and evil. As for the Heaven’s Beyond Heaven, due to the battle between the ancient gods and devils, spiritual energy was gradually declining and resources were increasingly scarce. They slowly began to covet the entire ancient land of Xianyuan, but they did not succeed.”
At this point, Old man Zi Yi glanced at the two people on the mountain peak and continued, “It is said that 10,000 years ago, Qing Emperor used a supreme divine ability and borrowed the spiritual energy of the entire Xianyuan Ancient Earth to completely seal off the only passageway that connects the Xianyuan Ancient Earth outside the Heavens and the Outer Heavens, causing them to never be able to go down the realm again …”
“Seal …”
Xiao Chen focused his attention. He had never heard anyone mention these things before. It seemed that thousands of years ago, many unknown things had happened in the Ancient Land of Xianyuan.
The only thing that was widely known was what the records said. The Heaven Realm God Race enslaved mortals until 10,000 years ago, when Qing Emperor descended and the descendants migrated to the mountains and filled the sea. From then on, a prosperous era of Xianyuan began …
“I didn’t expect that ten thousand years have passed. The seal that Qing Emperor placed in the Outer Heavens has finally loosened …”
Old man Zi Yi looked at the two Jiuyou Clan men and women on the distant mountain peak and smiled coldly. “Little friend, do you know which of the most mysterious forces are there in the Heavens and Beyond?” He continued.
Hearing what he said, Xiao Chen’s eyes narrowed slightly. He looked at him and said, “I wish to hear more about it.”
Old man Zi Yi said, “There are a total of six forces in the Heavens beyond Heaven. These six forces are … Li Hen Palace, Jiuyou Clan, Terminator Terrace, Greed, Abyss of Gods and Devils, and … the Gates of Profundity.”
“Li Hen Palace, Jiuyou Clan, Terminator Terrace, Tan Chen Chi, Abyss of Gods and Devils, Doors of Wonders …”
Xiao Chen’s expression froze slightly. He seemed to have seen the names of the six forces in the Heaven’s Beyond Heaven before in an ancient book. However, there were too few records about the Heaven’s Beyond Heaven.
“That’s right.”
Old man Zi Yi narrowed his eyes and looked at the demonic man and woman on the distant mountain peak. He said, “If my guess is correct, the two of them came from the Outer Heavens. People from Jiuyou Clan …”
Xiao Chen also looked at the two people on the top of the mountain again. He didn’t expect that the old man beside him would actually know so much. Who exactly was he?
“I wonder how to address you, Old Master?”
“Haha …”
Old man Zi Yi giggled, stroked his beard and said, “Just call me He Manzi. I know a little about the world.”
“So it’s Senior He. The surname of I am is Xiao. The name is Yi Chen.”
Xiao Chen also gave him his name. Since he was already in the clouds, if he had doubts, he did not need to reveal his name. Since he did not doubt it, there was no need for him to change his name.
“Oh?”
He Manzi stroked his beard and smiled, “Little friend is called Xiao Yichen, but in this world, there are countless people by this name. May I know which Xiao Yichen Little friend is?”
“Indeed, there are countless Xiao Chen in this world, and Xiao Yichen is the I am in front of you, sir,” said Xiao Yichen.
“Haha, yes, yes …”
He Manzi stroked his beard and smiled. As the two of them spoke, a tremor suddenly came from the distant mountain peak. Following that, streaks of profound light gathered and shot straight to the top of the sky. Clearly, it was Spiritual Energy from all directions that was about to gather here.
Everyone around became nervous. On the mountain peak, the originally opposing Berserk King of Snow Region and the Longevity Sword Master had also stopped fighting because of the sudden arrival of Jiuyou Clan’s man and woman.
At this moment, everyone’s attention was focused on the Spiritual Energy Point that was about to be condensed. Everyone present wanted to go to the fourth level of the sky. However, Spiritual Energy was only gathered together. Clearly, only the winner was qualified to go up.
“Looks like we came at the right time. Big brother, do you think so … hehe?”
The woman from Jiuyou Clan covered her mouth and smiled charmingly. She raised her hand and was still captivated, causing many men on the spot to almost lose their minds.
The Wild King of the Snow Region and the Longevity Sword Master naturally could tell that these two people had come to seize Spiritual Energy. Both of their cultivation levels did not seem to be low, but they did not know who they were …
Just as everyone was nervous, a cold and gloomy aura suddenly came from somewhere, causing people to feel as if they had fallen into an ice cellar. Many people became uneasy at this moment. Could this cold and gloomy aura be someone from the Abyss of Ten Thousand Ghosts?
“People from Jiuyou Clan? You actually came down from the Outer Heavens …”
Finally, a cold and gloomy voice came from afar. Hearing this voice, many people nearby were stunned. This cold and gloomy aura … was indeed someone from the Abyss of Ten Thousand Ghosts!
“Interesting, the people from the Abyss of Ten Thousand Ghosts are also here …”
On the side of the boulder, He Manzi chuckled, but he didn’t seem surprised. As Xiao Chen looked over, he saw a black wind sweeping over and instantly transforming into a ghost figure. The ghost figure gradually became solid from the void, and finally slowly condensed into a human figure.
However, that person had a ghost face on his face, but it was unknown which person from the Abyss of Ten Thousand Ghosts had come.
The last time Xiao Chen passed through Yun State, he had fought against the Black-White Impermanence of the Abyss of Ten Thousand Ghosts. This person was not Black-White Impermanence, and his aura seemed to be much deeper than the Black-White Impermanence and the White Impermanence of that day. He must have attained at least the cultivation of a Sixth Grade Quasi-Saint.
“Oh? I wonder which one of the Ten Halls of Yama is your Excellency from the Abyss of Ten Thousand Ghosts …”
The woman from Jiuyou Clan smiled seductively and looked at the ghost-faced man. Although Jiuyou Clan was in the Outer Heavens, it seemed that they knew the power of the ancient lands of Xianyuan as well as the Ten Halls of the Abyss of Ten Thousand Ghosts.
When the crowd heard that it was the Ten Halls of Yama of the Abyss of Myriad Ghosts, they were even more stunned. They all looked at the ghost-faced man, and he said earlier, Jiuyou Clan, what does this mean when you descend from the Outer Heavens? Which one of the Ten Halls of Yama is he …
“No, Qin Guang is also.”
A cold and dignified voice came from under the ghost’s face, causing everyone nearby to feel as if they had fallen into a cold pond. They didn’t expect that he was the leader of the Ten Halls of Yama, King Qin Guang … also known as the first hall of the Ten Halls!
Then what he came here today is only an avatar. I’m afraid his true body has already reached the Saint realm, so he won’t come to Feng Yuntian this time …
King Qin Guang placed his hands behind his back. His gaze under the ghost’s face fell on the two men and women in Jiuyou Clan. He said coldly, “Your Excellency, the two of you are from Jiuyou Clan in the sky …”
“Heaven beyond Heaven, Jiuyou Clan …”
Hearing this, many people were stunned again. They turned their heads and looked at the evil and charming man and woman. Their identities were indeed a bit strange, but Heaven beyond Heaven, Jiuyou Clan … could it be!
“Oh? Have you been recognized …”
The woman from Jiuyou Clan smiled faintly. Her action of covering her mouth was still extremely charming, causing people to be intoxicated. However, they did not know how terrifying it was for her to kill people. The Jiuyou Clan was the most bloodthirsty clan in the Outer Heavens.
“As expected …”
The Longevity Sword Master slashed his sword and pointed at the two people in Jiuyou Clan, “I just felt that there was something wrong with the two of you. It turns out that you are from the Outer Heavens!”
Only then did some people gradually react. Heaven’s Beyond Heaven, could it be that many years ago, the Heaven’s Beyond Heaven that invaded the ancient land of Xianyuan had six great mysterious forces …
“Even if it is, so what?”
The evil-looking man smiled faintly, but he did not seem nervous at all. He said, “Everyone can come from the clouds and winds. My little sister and I have come here today. Don’t you all come here today with the same purpose in mind?”
Hearing this, everyone in the vicinity became speechless. Logically speaking, Heaven’s Beyond Heaven and the Xianyuan Ancient Land were mortal enemies, but now, no one went up to cause trouble for these two people.
Firstly, the cultivations of these two people from Jiuyou Clan were not low. Now that they were in this storm, they didn’t want to cause trouble for themselves. What if there were people from Jiuyou Clan outside? There is no doubt that Jiuyou Clan is powerful …
Secondly, everyone’s goal this time was to ascend to a higher Feng Yuntian. All of Xi Xi in the world came for profit, and all of the bustling people in the world came for profit. The only thing that remained unchanged in this world was profit. How could there be any true mortal enemies?
Moreover, how many years had it been since Heaven’s Beyond invaded the ancient lands of Xianyuan?
In reality, let alone ten thousand years ago, even if he had invaded a hundred years ago, how many people still didn’t forget the bloody shame of history? This was especially true for the younger generation, who had long forgotten about history, but only wanted to enjoy themselves in front of them.
“If you want to ascend to the fourth level, then it depends on the two of you. Do you have the ability to do so …”
King Qinguang’s voice was cold and deep. After he finished speaking, he stretched out his hand and waved it. A few black rays of light immediately wrapped around his body. A deep aura pervaded the air, causing many people’s hearts to tremble.
“Haha, I just want to experience the Ten Thousand Ghosts Cetian of the Ten Thousand Ghosts Alliance …”
The evil-looking man sneered. In the next instant, he had already launched an offensive towards King Qinguang, and the seductive woman had also flown up in an instant. Her strange figure was truly indiscernible!
