Chapter 1114: The predecessor of the ma.s.s extinction period? Myths about Divine Ruins

“Huang Yu, if you’re going, make sure not to disturb anyone, though a true supremely powerful being probably wouldn’t even pay attention to a little immortal phoenix like you… you might not even get to see them. But… who knows, maybe this is your chance.”

The elderly white-haired old man watched as the feather-clad girl transformed into a little immortal phoenix and flew away. He shook his head and sighed. A long time ago, he was indeed a terrible cultivator, not quite reaching the level of a supremely powerful being, but he wasn’t far off. However, due to the will of heaven, his cultivation had started to decline, and his lifespan had begun to wither. Some of the divine powers he had learned and the methods he had cultivated gradually faded from his memory. This calamity was truly terrifying and dreadful.

Even immortals had no way to stop it; they could only watch as their cultivation declined, their insights faded, and their lifespans dwindled until they eventually pa.s.sed away.

Some had attempted to leave this universe and search for a solution in another universe, but those who departed never returned. Many speculated that they had perished on their journeys or had found a suitable place for cultivation and never returned to their homeland.

In any case, the long Dark Fault had lasted for countless years and had ultimately erased all the Daoist forces and inheritance. If any traces remained, they were inscriptions and engravings, as well as some ancient scriptures buried in the earth.

“Regardless, we must ensure that all inheritances are not severed. The era of the Great Extinction has pa.s.sed, and the current environment is gradually becoming suitable for cultivation. To future generations, we are the ancestors… Perhaps the recent disturbance was caused by one of those supremely powerful beings who left this universe and has now returned, having found a solution.”

With a deep sigh, Grandpa Cang continued to explain the path of cultivation to the people in the bamboo forest and some intelligent ferocious beasts. Similar scenes were unfolding on this ancient life planet because the brilliant light from earlier had been too terrifying. Even from a great distance, it had emitted a sense of impending destructive aura.

Many cultivators were trying to figure out ways to head towards the direction where the light had appeared. Even those who couldn’t fly through the air were determined to find a way to reach it.

Everyone was eager to know how such a terrifying aura could still exist in the current world, just like the supremely powerful beings recorded in ancient scriptures.

“That is……”

The girl named Huang Yu flew swiftly, although many of the cultivation methods pa.s.sed down in her bloodline had already been erased.

However, it didn’t affect her speed at all. She transformed into a crimson divine rainbow, chasing after the brilliant light from earlier. Soon, she was left stunned by the scene before her, hovering in the air, lost in amazement.

At some point, perhaps even just moments ago, what used to be an endless desolation had now been shrouded in a vast sea of fairy mist. Vaguely, one could discern the outlines of numerous ancient divine mountains and towering trees, immense in stature, seemingly reaching the same height as the heavens and the earth.

Within this boundless fairy mist, jagged rocks and mountains were exceptionally conspicuous. Many damaged palaces, pavilions, and crumbling ruins were scattered in all directions, exuding a grand and ancient aura, as if they had endured endless eons.

It was as if countless years had pa.s.sed, leaving behind a solemn and lofty presence that made people involuntarily kneel down in reverence.

“Could this be the immortal palace recorded in the scriptures, where the senior came from beyond the heavens and chose to reside?”

Huang Yu was deeply moved, her heart filled with profound admiration. In this mysterious area ahead, she saw even more awe-inspiring sights. Enormous stars floated inexplicably in its depths, countless and seemingly endless.

In the eastern direction, she could see towering and majestic pillars that appeared to be holding up the heavens and the earth, shrouded in the vast mist, mysterious and expansive.

In the western direction, chaotic aura pervaded, forming a waterfall that revealed a vast and ma.s.sive river, its surging waves cras.h.i.+ng against the heavens and the earth as if it wanted to pierce through the universe.

To Huang Yu, that river seemed to be flowing backward towards the sky, with numerous stars gathering within it, resembling the legendary Milky Way.

“What the h.e.l.l are these inscriptions?”

“Southern Heavenly Gate?”

“Look, there’s an inscription here; it seems to be very ancient writing. It mentions ‘Divine Ruins’?”

The commotion and the spectacle here had alarmed many cultivators. Everyone who arrived later was equally astounded.

Many of them had only heard of the so-called immortal palace from scriptures, but what they saw now seemed no different from an immortal palace and was even more awe-inspiring. The vast sea of fairy mist shrouding this area was mysterious and boundless, awe-inspiring in every sense.

“The disturbance earlier was definitely the work of that senior. It seems he intends to live here.”

“Divine’s Ruin, Immortal Palace, Southern Heavenly Gate… It must be a senior from before the Great Extinction, as only before the Great Extinction would anything related to immortals appear.”

Many people gazed at the scenery before them, devoutly kneeling and paying their respects to it.

In this current era, cultivators lived peacefully without conflicts or battles, leading a harmonious existence with the world. Therefore, upon discovering the possible presence of a senior powerhouse, everyone refrained from disturbing the place. They merely paid their respects and observed quietly. However, many were aware that this region held hidden dangers, and venturing too close could result in life-threatening situations.

“Is that… a tree?” Suddenly, Haung Yu noticed something that left her astonished, her expression filled with shock as she fixed her gaze on the deepest part of the area.

Chaotic aura surged, and thick mist billowed upward before revealing certain images. A profoundly mysterious and ancient towering tree stood at the heart of it all, with withered leaves that condensed into a boundless chaotic aura. Countless stars transformed into dust-like particles, spinning around it and emitting terrifying sounds, as if worlds were colliding.

Although this scene flashed by briefly, many had witnessed it, leaving them with endless reverence and awe.

“A mysterious senior, accompanied by an enigmatic ancient tree, suddenly arrived here, declaring it as ‘Divine Ruin.’ Or was this place originally called Divine’s Ruins, and it has remained so since before the Great Extinction?” Huang Yu mused, yearning to step into the Divine’s Ruins to explore its secrets.

However, her instincts warned her that taking even one step forward would result in total annihilation of body and soul. She hesitated for a long time, torn between her desire to enter and her innate fear.

Eventually, a cultivator saw the little immortal phoenix transform into her true form, flapping her wings, and dive into the boundless fairy mist to pursue the Divine’s Ruins. However, no one saw her emerge.

In the years that followed, many cultivators and beings came to the edge of the Divine’s Ruins, gazing at its vast landscapes from afar. Over time, the thick mist surrounding the Divine’s Ruins grew denser, gradually shrouding the surroundings entirely.

Even those cultivators who had previously ventured here could no longer find the path. Many people noticed that the Divine’s Ruins were gradually fading, much like the various cultivation methods and practices that had existed in the past, slowly disappearing.

Some people claimed that the mysterious senior within the Divine’s Ruins had been recuperating all these years and was now planning to leave. Others believed that the Divine’s Ruins served as a gateway to the legendary Immortal Realm, and the senior had already ascended to that realm, causing the G.o.d’s Domain to fade away.

Subsequently, almost every year, cultivators came here in search of traces of the Divine’s Ruins. Some found clues, but most became lost, finding nothing and believing that the Divine’s Ruins had long vanished.
