Chapter 1958: Severing the Ominous, Beginning the Breakthrough_1
“You mean? The opportunity of the Hun Yuan Qi (Primordial Chaos Energy) was sent into the Forbidden Zone by that supreme existence?”
“And what exactly are the Forbidden Zone gates and the ominous invasion? Could it be that they do not originate from this world?”
Lightning flashed across his mind, Jiang Chengxuan was shaken to the core, every hair on his body standing on end.
He took a deep breath, then his gaze hardened as he rapidly asked.
The information that the Huo Tian Immortal had spilled out in anger moments ago far exceeded Jiang Chengxuan’s expectations,
Containing so many hidden secrets that he could barely remain calm.
The Huo Tian Immortal hesitated, his eyes flickering as if suddenly realizing his slip of the tongue.
He fell silent for a moment, then, looking into Jiang Chengxuan’s sincere gaze, sighed deeply.
Only then did he continue speaking, no longer holding back:
“The Hun Yuan Qi of the Ancient Realm had already completely vanished during some epoch in the past due to a cataclysmic upheaval…”
“Since then, any cultivator who wishes to break through to the Hun Yuan Da Luo (Primordial Chaos Great Dao) realm can only seek the Hun Yuan power from beyond the heavens.”
Hearing this, Jiang Chengxuan’s eyes narrowed sharply, picking out the key phrase:
“Beyond the heavens? What place is that?”
At this, the Huo Tian Immortal glanced at him, his face darkening, then explained further:
“Indeed, just as you suspect, beyond the Ancient Realm, there exists an even vaster cosmos… known as Shangcang!”
“Beyond Shangcang dwell numerous ominous races who view the human race of the Ancient Realm as mere prey!
Many Forbidden Zones are actually ancient battlefields left behind by their invasions!”
“That supreme existence rose during the ancient era,
Fought bloodily against these ominous species, ruling the ages alone, and ultimately drove them out of the Ancient Realm!”
“Afterward, he single-handedly raised an army in the Shangcang world,
Blocking the ominous species from invading again and again!”
“During this time, he continuously extracted the Hun Yuan power from Shangcang and funneled it into the Ancient Realm through the gates of the Forbidden Zones,
To assist the cultivators of the Ancient Realm in breaking through to the Hun Yuan Da Luo realm, granting them the qualification to go to Shangcang and help resist the ominous.”
“In this way, the Ancient Realm was able to enjoy eternal peace! Cultivators below the Da Luo realm could not perceive the truth,
And were able to live safely under the shadow of that supreme existence.”
“Boy, I see you… perhaps you have the potential to reach Shangcang. I hope this cruel truth
Does not shatter your Dao heart…”
In the dead silence of the space, the Huo Tian Immortal slowly revealed everything he had buried in his heart for countless millennia.
All along, he had no one to confide in, and at first, he did not intend to tell Jiang Chengxuan,
Because this secret was too heavy, too cruel!
To know such a truth was of no benefit to anyone! Even he, after following that supreme existence and inheriting the legacy,
Had his Dao heart darkened and lived each day in dread.
After a long time, he relied on faith to rekindle his fighting spirit, hoping to advance to the Hun Yuan Da Luo realm,
And travel to Shangcang to assist that supreme existence in resisting the ominous.
However, it was at that moment that all his comprehension of the Dao faded, his strength plummeted,
Forcing him to sever his cultivation and merely survive until now.
For a moment, Jiang Chengxuan’s expression turned blank, frozen in place,
His eyes vacant, his mind overwhelmed with tangled thoughts.
The Shangcang world, the ominous species, the exhaustion of Hun Yuan power — all of it was too shocking, too overwhelming,
No matter how strong Jiang Chengxuan’s endurance was, he could not remain expressionless.
These were secrets only accessible after reaching the Da Luo realm,
But Jiang Chengxuan had learned them earlier than anyone else, which was no good.
Huo Tian fell silent, thinking Jiang Chengxuan had been frightened, and was about to comfort him.
At that moment, Jiang Chengxuan shuddered, snapping out of his contemplation, and spoke solemnly:
“Never thought that above the Ancient Realm, such hidden truths existed…”
“If this were to leak, it would surely cause turmoil throughout the Ancient Realm. Those who are still laying plans in the Forbidden Zones,
Do they all know this secret?”
His words stunned Huo Tian, who hadn’t expected Jiang Chengxuan to calm down so quickly,
Accepting everything with almost no emotional fluctuations.
“Anyone at the Da Luo realm should be able to sense the gates of the Forbidden Zones; they’re all old, immortal scoundrels.
How could they not know this secret? They just don’t dare to act.”
Huo Tian said resentfully. The power of that supreme existence was unknown, the entire Ancient Realm had already reached an extremely dangerous state,
Yet those immortal Da Luo cultivators, each selfish and fearful of death, dared not personally try
To draw the Hun Yuan power from the gates of the Forbidden Zones and investigate!
How pitiful!
Hiding in this Ancient Realm without the protection of that supreme existence was just waiting to die!
The angrier Huo Tian became, the redder his eyes grew. If it weren’t for the fact that his comprehension of the Dao had faded,
He would have long since opened the Forbidden Zones himself and ventured in to explore.
“Sigh—”
But in the end, Huo Tian could only sigh and tell Jiang Chengxuan all this, reigniting his will,
But helpless to do anything himself.
Powerless, he could only be one of those waiting to die!
At his current strength, even entering the deepest parts of the Forbidden Zones and seeing the gates was impossible.
“You’ve already been tainted by cause and effect. From now on, we part ways here. Those old immortal bastards
Will easily find you.”
Huo Tian said this sternly to Jiang Chengxuan, his face desolate, already returned to ashes.
“If you have the heart, after breaking through to the Da Luo realm, you can go to the gates of the Forbidden Zones…”
