As the Universe Turns - Chapter 914
Chapter 914 Yellow Springs Ancient Land
“Master’s words … are they true?”
Very quickly, Fairy Red Butterfly and the Longevity Sect Master came to their senses. Someone had touched the restriction here, so why didn’t they notice it?
If the restriction here was truly touched, then what they would have to face next would probably be more than just the restriction.
“Do you still want to continue forward?”
At this moment, the Dark Ghost King approached. Fairy Red Butterfly and the Longevity Sect Master’s gazes fell on Baimei Shangren. Baimei Shangren frowned deeply and was unable to make a decision. At this moment, a slight tremor suddenly came from the ground. Xiao Chen’s expression froze as he looked at the darkness ahead. “Something is coming …”
The few of them immediately regained their senses and quickly hid behind a huge boulder. Slowly, the tremor gradually became heavier and heavier. There were also heavy blunt sounds, as if an ancient beast was approaching them.
“Wait … that’s!”
Everyone’s gazes focused. Suddenly, two gigantic figures appeared in the darkness ahead. They were over a hundred zhang tall and looked like two moving hills. They were holding huge axes in their hands. Every step they took, the ground would tremble.
“That’s … an ancient god!”
Everyone was stunned. The Giant God’s face was terrifying. His feet were the size of a palace. Every step he took caused dust to rise several zhang high. Although the Giant God was not a true god, it was only an ancient weapon of war. However, its horror could not be underestimated.
“Ten thousand years have passed. How can there be an ancient god here …”
Fairy Red Butterfly’s face was slightly pale. Even though her cultivation was already as strong as theirs, she still felt suffocated. Even the few of them wouldn’t dare to underestimate the Giant God’s Axe that slashed through the mountains and split the earth …
“These Giant Gods have been dead for many years, but you’d better be careful not to be discovered by him …”
Xiao Chen looked at the two Giant Gods in the distance and said indifferently. This place was extremely abnormal. There must be more than these two Giant Gods nearby.
“A dead Giant God …”
Hearing this, The few of them were even more stunned. Baimei Shangren chanted a curse and waved his sleeve. A yellow talisman flew out and instantly transformed into a paper doll. The paper doll flew towards the Giant God and was immediately discovered. Two rays of blood-colored light suddenly shot out from the eyes of one of the Giant Gods. With a “boom”, the paper doll was instantly smashed to ashes. Even within a radius of several dozen feet, the entire sky was stirred up with dust.
Baimei Shangren’s expression changed slightly. The Longevity Sect Master and Fairy Red Butterfly immediately looked at him, “How about it?”
‘”Probably the power of a Pseudo-Saint Eighth Order” Baimei Shangren said in a deep voice.
“Eighth Order …”
The Longevity Sect Master and Fairy Red Butterfly felt their hearts tremble slightly. If they didn’t do anything to resist, they would probably be as ashen as the paper doll. Even if they resisted with all their might, they might not be able to resist. Although the giant god was dead and didn’t have much consciousness, it was precisely because of this that they would attack the invaders all the time, so they couldn’t be discovered by him …
“Be careful. Use the surrounding boulders as a cover and sneak over.”
Now that they were in a dilemma, everyone could only be cautious. On one hand, they couldn’t let the ancient god discover them, and on the other hand, they had to resist the restrictive lightning that would occasionally descend from the sky.
After a day passed like this, everyone was in a state of suspense along the way. Finally, they arrived at the end of the second restriction. There were no longer any figures of the ancient Giant Gods here, and the thunderclouds in the sky slowly dispersed. Fairy Red Butterfly revealed a happy expression, “We have passed through the second restriction …”
Looking at Baimei Shangren, his brows were still furrowed. The Longevity Sect Master thought of what he had said before. The restriction here had been touched by someone. That was to say, someone had come here before them, but who was that person? Or was he mistaken?
“Let’s go …”
Baimei Shangren was silent for a long time. He finally put away his whisk and walked forward. He could no longer feel the restrictive power in front of him. At the same time, he no longer had the gloomy aura of the Underworld. Slowly, the light became brighter and brighter, and the scenery gradually became clear. What greeted everyone was actually a verdant valley.
“This …”
However, seeing the flowing water in the valley, flowers blooming like brocades, and immortal birds and beasts moving back and forth, it was as if they were in the Outer World Immortal Realm.
The few of them were stunned. At this moment, they thought that they had fallen into an illusion. However, from a closer look, everything in front of them was real, not illusory. However, they did not expect that Acheron Valley, which no one dared to approach for thousands of years, would actually be such a blessed place inside.
“It’s the Yellow Springs Ancient Land …”
Fairy Red Butterfly immediately reacted. Her entire body was overjoyed. Thousands counted. She didn’t expect that she would actually arrive at the legendary Yellow Springs Ancient Land after passing through the numerous auras and restrictions of the Nether Realm!
In the past, this place was not called the “Yellow Springs”. Only when the aura of the Underworld permeated did it become known as the Yellow Springs. This endless stretch of land in front of him was clearly an ancient immortal land.
“Yellow Springs Ancient Land …”
The Longevity Sect Master also looked around and said, “In other words, the ‘Yellow Springs Secret Realm’ mentioned in the ancient book is here?”
“Not bad …”
At this moment, Fairy Red Butterfly was still unable to restrain her excitement. She smiled and said, “As long as we find the secret realm, we will be able to find those divine arts secret manuals and even magic treasures that were lost in the previous era …”
“Interesting, interesting. Looks like this trip wasn’t in vain …”
The Dark Ghost King also smiled sinisterly. Only Baimei Shangren’s expression was the most solemn. Seeing his solemn expression, Fairy Red Butterfly smiled and said, “Now that we have passed through the restriction and entered, what are Senior White-browed worried about?”
Hearing this, Baimei Shangren remained silent. After a while, he said, “There are still seven days left before the Tidal Day. At that time, the aura of the Underworld outside will completely dissipate. In the end, everyone will enter this place …”
The Longevity Sect Master smiled and said, “So you are worried about this. Don’t worry, even if the aura of the Underworld outside dissipates, there are still two layers of restrictions. They may not be able to enter. So what if they enter? No one has found them here for thousands of years. We are the first batch of people to enter …”
Fairy Red Butterfly smiled and said, “The Longevity Sect Master’s words are reasonable. We are the first to arrive. We only need to hurry up. Everyone, remember, we must leave before the tide ends in a month. Otherwise, we will have to wait several hundred years for the next tide to arrive.”
“One month is enough …”
The Longevity Sect Master smiled and moved forward immediately. Fairy Red Butterfly turned to look at Xiao Chen and said, “Childe Xiao, do you want to join us?”
“You guys … don’t be happy too early.”
Xiao Chen looked at the surrounding scenery and said indifferently. Hearing what he said, the Longevity Sect Master who had already flown forward stopped and turned to look at him, “What do you mean?”
At this moment, Yin Ghost King and Baimei Shangren also looked at him. Fairy Red Butterfly frowned slightly and asked, “What does Childe Xiao mean by this sentence?”
Xiao Chen took a few steps forward and looked at the flowing water in the valley in the distance. “Didn’t Baimei Shangren say something about the restriction on the second floor? Someone triggered the restriction inside …” he said coolly.
Hearing this, Fairy Red Butterfly and the Longevity Sect Master were stunned for a moment. Then, they looked at the nearby White-browed Cultivator and saw that the middle of each other’s eyebrows was deeply locked. They were silent. After a long time, they said, “Little friend Xiao, did you notice anything …”
“Someone has been here” Xiao Chen looked at the mountains in the distance and said indifferently.
“What did you say …”
Fairy Red Butterfly was even more stunned. The Longevity Sect Master stretched out his hand and firmly said, “Impossible! There is no way anyone will be able to enter first!”
“Do you have any? I’ll find out after I go take a look …”
Xiao Chen’s voice was faint. As soon as he finished speaking, he took a step forward and immediately stepped on the flying sword. He flew towards the mountains in front of him. Seeing this, the few people behind him immediately took out their flying swords and followed.
The clouds were boundless. Hundreds of kilometers after they had used their swords, they suddenly saw the river flowing backwards, the mountains and rivers shifting, and a boundless aura that caused the flying swords beneath their feet to tremble.
“What’s going on …”
Everyone was stunned. To prevent accidents, He immediately slowed down the flying sword’s speed. After a while, he saw mountains collapse, rivers blocked up, and there was no longer the appearance of the Outer World Immortal Realm. On the contrary, it was a mess. Many of the mountains were destroyed. Even though the vegetation had regrown, one could still see that the traces left behind by the great battle here, the spiritual energy of the mountains and rivers had been destroyed, and it was difficult to recover within a hundred years.
“This …”
The mountains within a radius of a hundred kilometers were almost intact. Everyone was shocked again. The mountains here seemed to have been destroyed by countless terrifying sword Qi descending from the sky, because at this moment, they could still feel the remaining sword Qi.
“What a strong sword qi …”
Judging from the growth of the vegetation, this place should have been destroyed decades ago. However, decades later, this sword qi still remained here. Furthermore, it caused them to feel suffocated and their bodies to tremble continuously. There was only one possibility. The sword qi here was left behind by a sage!
They all had the cultivation of a Quasi-Sage, and only Saint realm experts could cause them to tremble!
“A sage has been here before …”
This time, even Baimei Shangren’s expression changed slightly. His heart was beating violently as he looked at the collapsed mountains. It was hard to imagine what had happened here decades ago. Not a single mountain within a hundred kilometers was complete …
At this moment, the few of them felt an indescribable chill behind their backs. This was the Yellow Springs Ancient Land. There was a sealing restriction left behind by the God of the Heaven Realm. It could easily destroy everything within a radius of a hundred kilometers. Probably only those who had entered the Sage Realm could do so. So, Sage Realm experts were so terrifying …
