As the Universe Turns - Chapter 1337
Chapter 1337 Heaven’s Abyss
“Something strange came from the mortal world.”
Xiao Chen walked up and exchanged a glance with Fairy Rain Butterfly. The two of them immediately activated their Wind Riding Technique and headed towards the valley.
Upon reaching the top, many of Butterfly Gathering valley’s disciples panicked and came outside. Fairy Shuiyue was maintaining order. Seeing Martial Uncle and Xiao Chen flying over, they immediately said, “Martial Uncle … what’s going on?”
“I’m going to take a look outside. Shui Yue, bring him back to the Serene Butterfly Valley.”
Fairy Rain Butterfly’s eyebrows knitted tightly. As soon as he finished speaking, he immediately activated his Wind Riding Technique and flew towards the valley entrance.
Just as Xiao Chen was about to catch up, Fairy Shuiyue stopped him, “Wait a moment … Martial Uncle won’t let you out. Forget it.”
In the end, Xiao Chen watched Fairy Rain Butterfly disappear, his brows furrowing deeper and deeper. What was going on? This strange movement seemed to have really come from the mortal world. Could something have happened to the mortal world? It’s only been a year since I left …
“Everyone, listen up! Stay on guard, don’t panic!”
Fairy Shuiyue sent a voice to the disciples behind her. A moment later, she turned around and looked at Xiao Chen. “Let’s go. Let’s go back to Hidden Butterfly Valley first.”
In the end, Xiao Chen returned to the Secluded Butterfly Valley. However, all along the way, he was lost in thought. Fairy Shuiyue, who was standing beside him, did not disturb him when she saw him fall into deep thought.
After a while, the sudden movement stopped. It was only early in the morning that Fairy Rain Butterfly came back from outside.
Seeing her return, Fairy Shuiyue immediately walked up and said, “Martial Uncle, did you find anything?”
Fairy Shuiyue was not a cultivator from the mortal world, so she naturally couldn’t sense it. The strange movements from last night were faintly transmitted from the mortal world, and what she was worried about was undoubtedly the massive destruction of the spiritual veins of the Immortal World recently. She thought that the strange movements just now were due to the destruction of the spiritual impulses of the Immortal World.
Like her, most cultivators in the Immortal Dimension thought that it was only because of the destruction of the Spiritual Pulse. However, even Fairy Rain Butterfly and Xiao Chen were unable to determine the reason. They could only guess that there were other reasons besides the mortal world.
“How is it? Have you found out where the strange movements from last night came from?”
Seeing Fairy Rain Butterfly walking towards the valley, Xiao Chen also stood up and walked over. Fairy Rain Butterfly looked at him and after a while, he shook his head and said, “There have been quite a few immortal spiritual impulses recently. Perhaps it’s just that the immortal spiritual energy is unstable.”
“You clearly know that’s not the case.”
At this moment, Xiao Chen’s gaze suddenly became a little sharp. It was as if the tip of a needle was sharp as it stared motionlessly at Fairy Rain Butterfly’s face.
“Shui Yue, look after him during this period of time.”
Fairy Rain Butterfly’s gaze also fell on him. After he finished speaking, he turned around and went out of the valley.
“Wait!”
Just as Xiao Chen was about to catch up, Fairy Shuiyue pulled him back and said, “Forget it …”
As he spoke, he shook his head and gave him a look, “There have been so many incidents recently. If you continue to make trouble like this, Martial Uncle will definitely ask me to seal this place with the Returning Butterfly Formation. At that time, you won’t even be able to leave this place …”
At the end of her sentence, she saw that Martial Uncle had already left. She looked at Xiao Chen and said, “Otherwise, I’ll take you to the Fairy Lake in the afternoon. The scenery there is great. Let’s treat it as a distraction.”
“I’m not in the mood. You can go.”
Xiao Chen waved his sleeves, his face slightly sullen. He walked down the cliff to Qing Song. Right now, Fairy Rain Butterfly wouldn’t let him leave Butterfly Gathering valley, but he had to think of a way to leave.
…
Just like that, another month passed. During this month, there were frequent strange movements in the Immortal Dimension. As for what exactly caused this, no one was clear about it. However, it was presumably related to the recent massive destruction of the spiritual veins in the Immortal Dimension and the sudden increase in the spiritual energy in the Immortal Dimension.
In the mortal world, something strange happened this month. A crack actually appeared on the dome. Inside the crack, it was pitch black. No one knew what was inside.
Because of this crack that had suddenly appeared in the sky, every faction in the world had been feeling uneasy for the past month.
No one knew what it was, and no one knew when it appeared on earth. It seemed that it had only appeared slowly in the past month.
At first, this crack was only a black dot. Very few people noticed it, but in just a month, it had actually expanded into an abyss. It looked like an abyss hanging upside down in the sky. It was pitch black inside, and no bottom could be seen.
Therefore, this crack was called the “Heavenly Abyss”. The reason why people felt fear was because they did not know how the Heavenly Abyss was formed, nor did they know what was inside. That was why they felt fear.
In the past month, people had searched through the historical records, but they couldn’t find any relevant records. The only similar records were in the ancient times, when the heavenly pillars collapsed, the heavens and earth collapsed, and Nuwa refined five-colored stones to repair the heavens.
However, from the looks of it, the cracks in the sky weren’t really caused by the cracks in the sky. As for what exactly it was, no one knew.
No matter where in the world, one could clearly see this crack. Spirit Ruins Realm, Xianyuan Five Realms, the Eastern Continent, Immortal North Ancient Realm, and even the Western Polar Wuwang Sea could clearly see this abyss hanging upside down in the sky.
Over the past month, countless cultivators had volunteered to fly to the Heavenly Abyss, either using flying swords or relying on their extremely high cultivation techniques.
However, no matter how fast he flew, no matter how high he flew, the distance between the Heavenly Abyss remained unchanged. In this month, no one was able to go up.
…
“Oh … Senior Sister Nichang, what exactly is that crack in the sky … Why does it look like Xuanqing Sect is so close to us? Ruoshui is a little scared …”
At this moment in Xuanqing Sect, Ruoshui was tightly pulling on Qianyu Nichang’s sleeve. The crack in the sky looked like it was shrouding the sky above Xuanqing Mountain. It was very close.
However, it only appeared to be very close. Similarly, even from Xuanqing Mountain, it was impossible to fly up to it. No matter how high it flew, the distance of the Heavenly Abyss did not seem to have changed at all.
At this moment, Qianyu Nichang also stared motionlessly at the abyss that seemed to be hanging upside down in the sky. After a long time, he said, “That is the abyss of heaven …”
“Heaven’s Abyss …”
Ruoshui stared blankly at the crack in the sky and said, “Senior Sister Nichang, what is the Abyss of Heaven? Why haven’t I heard Master mention it before …”
Qianyu Nichang’s eyebrows furrowed as he looked at the crack in the sky and slowly said, “Behind the Abyss of Heaven is the Heavens beyond Heaven …”
“Heaven beyond Heaven …”
Hearing these three words, Ruoshui’s tiny body trembled and his face turned a little pale. He tightly pulled Qianyu Nichang’s sleeve and said, “Are there evil people in the sky above?”
Qianyu Nichang took a deep breath and didn’t say anything.
At this moment, in Tianshu Peak, Daoist Qingxuan’s Heavenly Pivot Palace, the seven Excellency were all present. Clearly, they were discussing the matter of the rift in the sky today.
“Junior brothers and sisters, what do you think?”
At this moment, Daoist Qingxuan was sitting at the head of the hall. His beard was white, and his aura was restrained. His cultivation was already unfathomable. Perhaps even the so-called High Immortals in Ancient Immortal Realm might not be as high as his cultivation.
No one in the hall said anything. After a while, Only then did Excellency Yi Huanzhen, Heavenly Secrets, say, “The seal that Qing Emperor placed on the world 10,000 years ago has long since loosened. The Heavens have been watching the world for a long time. It seems that the Abyss of Heaven had already appeared decades ago, but it has always been hidden. Until now, the imbalance between Ancient Immortal Realm and the Spiritual Qi in the world has caused the Spiritual Qi condensed outside the Abyss of Heaven to dissipate. In this way, the Abyss of Heaven has appeared.”
“That’s right. I think what Junior Brother Yi Huanzhen said makes sense. What do you think, Senior Brother?” At this time, Excellency Xuanyang stroked his white beard and nodded.
“En …”
Daoist Qingxuan nodded slightly and said, “The original Heaven beyond Heaven was called the ‘Filth Realm’. It was a world condensed from all sorts of filthy, turbid, demonic energy in the human world, as well as the hostility, greed, and resentment of all living beings in the Three Realms.”
At this point, he paused for a moment and continued, “Since its evolution, the Heaven’s Beyond Heaven has become extremely powerful. In the entire Heaven’s Beyond Heaven, there are tens of thousands of forces, but they are divided by six major forces. These six forces are Li Hen Palace, Jiuyou Clan, Terminator Terrace, Greed, Devil God Abyss, and the Gates of Profundity.”
After hearing this, the people in the hall fell into deep thought. After a long time, Yu Heng’s Excellency Profound Hidden Mirror opened its mouth and said, “The six forces of the Heaven’s Beyond Heaven have coveted the world for a long time. Once they successfully open the abyss passageway, no one will be able to stop them from coming to the world. Everyone in the world will be annihilated …”
Excellency Mei Yue continued, “The difficulty is the difficulty. At present, we know nothing about them, but they know the power of the world as well as the palm of their hand.”
“That’s right.”
Li Yuan Excellency said, “Looks like a long time ago, They managed to open a path for people to sneak into the world. There must be people from the Outer Heavens in this world. I even suspect that three hundred years ago, when the various sects of Diabolism joined forces to attack, it might have been secretly plotted by the people from the Outer Heavens. Their goal was to split the forces in the world and trap cultivators in internal chaos … ”
Excellency Xuanyang’s gaze narrowed as he looked at him and said, “Senior Brother Li Yuan, do you mean that there are people from the Outer Heavens in Diabolism?”
“Heaven beyond Heaven has already penetrated into every faction in the world. Even in the Righteous Dao, there may not be no one without them. However, the depth of that person’s hiding is truly beyond our imagination.”
At this moment, Yi Huanzhen opened his mouth again. As soon as he said this, the other Excellency looked at him. Excellency Mei Yue concentrated and said, “What does Junior Brother mean by this? Could it be that even I, Xuanqing Sect, might have people from the Outer Heavens?”
At this moment, the hall fell into silence. No one spoke anymore. If this person was in the Righteous path, his status would be extremely high. Otherwise, he would not be able to influence the situation on earth.
As for Excellency Xuanyang and Zang Xuanjing, the first thing they thought of was Xuan Qing, who betrayed Shen Cangming back then. Could it be that Shen Cangming was actually someone planted in the mortal world by the Outer Heavens?
Of course, they would never believe that Xiao Chen was someone who was planted in the world. No matter how outsiders viewed Xiao Chen, they knew in their hearts that Xiao Chen was nothing more than a naughty child. Unfortunately, they met that witch Hua Weiyang and went astray.
At this moment, Yi Huanzhen did not say who that person was. He only looked at Ling Yin and said, “Junior Sister, what do you think?”
