Small Boundary, Kingdom Qian.
With the resurgence of spiritual qi, the nations are now at peace, and the people live in harmony. Even the wars in the eastern countries have been quelled, with the Moon Tower reigning supreme!
Women with spiritual roots in various countries no longer face the fate of being treated as mere tools and forcibly sold. The evil cultivators have been eradicated, with weeds growing three meters high on their graves.
The Four Symbols Alliance has fallen into decline, now honestly playing the role of information traders.
Some ancestors even lead the chant: "I have contributed to the Moon Tower, provided information, we are one of us!"
Meanwhile, more and more prodigies of the immortal path are emerging, and the ten great immortal sects are flourishing once again, revitalized and standing tall!
However, their ancestors wear troubled expressions, feeling as if a sect is constantly watching them from above, maintaining an unusual low profile, brewing something unknown.
Moreover, with the presence of those two legendary figures, they wouldn't dare act recklessly even with a thousandfold courage, focusing instead on developing disciples and preparing to venture into the Da Li world of immortals!
In the Endless Mountain Range, the great demons are thriving, with the Taiwei Purple Immortal Trees rejuvenating once more.
They guard it as they live their days, even becoming good brothers with the Five Aggregates Sect.
Several demon ancestors often visit the Jade Bamboo Range, returning with smiles, all family, all family.
Regarding some evil cultivators in Kingdom Qian, they even took it upon themselves to clean them up.
Now, even the identity of the great demons doesn't instill much fear among the locals. Damn it, aren't they one of us!
In the Jade Bamboo Range.
The atmosphere remains heavy, with countless disciples striving for progress, some in seclusion, others sparring, and elders giving lectures.
But they all hold small booklets, for the path of immortality cannot be taken lightly.
The people of the Five Aggregates Sect have not been overwhelmed by the resurgence of spiritual qi. Ancestor Liu Han has already set the grand strategy for the sect.
The next step is to venture into the Da Li world of immortals, and beyond that, to the vast great world...
Now everyone in the Five Aggregates Sect is as energized as if they've been injected with adrenaline, ignoring the outside disturbances. Can you be stronger than us?!
No one outside knows how far the Five Aggregates Sect has come, but everyone is trembling, wondering if showing some strength is too much to ask, to give everyone something to aspire to!
Atop a main peak, Liu Han, Shi Wujun, and others sit together discussing the Dao. The ancestor has brought back many things, with body refining being a crucial step.
Their expressions are full of longing, but they know they must take it step by step.
The path of the ancestor is theirs to walk, and it cannot be envied. The path of the Five Aggregates Sect must also be walked by themselves.
"Liu Han, the Great Elder of the Northern Territory has sent word, wishing to send two disciples here to cultivate."
Ji Zhao's face is solemn as he looks towards the horizon, "They have past ties with the two ancestors, and we should give them this face."
"Of course," Liu Han beams, a smile on his lips, "Junior Brother Ji, do you wish to personally guide them?"
"Ahem."
Ji Zhao's expression changes, Liu Han is indeed too clever, "Perhaps... that's the idea."
"Haha..."
Shi Wujun suddenly bursts into laughter, "Junior Brother Ji, your intentions are not in the wine."
Ji Zhao shakes his head with a light sigh, inexplicably recalling the images of the two ancestors.
Especially Ancestor Bull, with its mooing laughter, he misses it dearly.
Jiang Xuechen remains silent beside them, lost in thought, having extended her life by fifteen hundred years, she still harbors some unrealistic hopes.
Liu Han and Shi Wujun exchange a glance, standing behind them are a man and a woman, bearing some resemblance to them, full of respect and not daring to interrupt, their manners well-taught.
At this moment, a light rain drizzles from the sky, the sound of rain gentle and ethereal, making the entire Jade Bamboo Range seem much fresher, as if stirring endless thoughts.
The entire main peak becomes tranquil, and they begin to appreciate the hazy beauty, placing great importance on their state of mind.
Suddenly, a startling change occurs!
The entire Jade Bamboo Range is filled with tension, a chilling wind blows, and the raindrops gradually freeze in mid-air!
Abruptly, a sense of fear grips everyone's heart, like waking from darkness and silence, they suddenly feel a chill all over.
"Not good!"
"Something's wrong!"
"It's not just the Jade Bamboo Range!"
...
Everyone's expressions change dramatically, rising abruptly, looking towards the sky with intense shock. This is a celestial phenomenon, not an invasion of the Five Aggregates Sect.
The entire Kingdom Qian, eastern countries, Northern Territory, and Endless Mountain Range are all alarmed, a sudden sense of unease spreading through them, as if their souls have left their bodies.
Boom!
A black lightning bolt suddenly cracks across the sky, as if the heavens and earth are collapsing.
Countless mortals emerge from their homes across the states, prostrating and trembling as they look to the heavens, cries and screams echoing.
It's a despairing heavenly might, lingering in the hearts of all living beings, impossible to dispel, bringing a stillness to the entire world!
Rumble! Rumble!
A dull roar emanates from the heavens and earth, like the howl of an ancient beast, vast and unending, as if the entire earth vein has been severed from the sky.
This phenomenon shocks the cultivators, terrifies the mortals, the heavenly might is furious, like the moment when the pioneers of the boundary opened the great world, but this time it's the opposite!
Suddenly, the entire world becomes dark, as if light and heat have vanished, a great terror abruptly descends upon the world, upon the heart of every living being.
In the Jade Bamboo Range.
The two juniors are dumbfounded, trembling uncontrollably, pointing at the sky, "Father... Mother... look... look at that..."
Their lips tremble, faces pale, as if witnessing the most terrifying sight they've ever seen.
In the deepest part of the sky, three colossal beasts seem to appear, enormous beyond measure, more majestic than ancient mountains, as if they tread the entire boundary underfoot.
They seem to exist beyond this sky, gazing down with a mysterious indifference, their might unparalleled!
Even from such a distance, a sense of despair chills everyone to the bone, holding their breath, suffocating, like being struck by a bolt from the blue.
At this moment, the world is so silent that the frantic heartbeat of every living being can be heard, gripped tightly by nameless fear.
It's a feeling of awe from the unknown and one's own insignificance...
In an instant.
Those three colossal beasts emit an incredibly blinding light, more dazzling than the sun, more brilliant than the great day, even causing countless mortals' eyes to bleed from the brightness.
Rumble! Rumble!
The entire world's energy is being drawn away, spiritual qi is dissipating wildly, mountains and rivers are reversing, the true sun and moon... without light!
The entire earth vein begins to fracture, great rivers cease to flow, billions of mortals die at a visible speed, all things wither at a visible speed!
Cries of despair echo through the heavens and earth, rivers of blood flow, everywhere are fleeing beings, driven to madness, why is this happening?! Their boundary's spiritual qi was clearly beginning to recover!
The grand world was clearly about to arrive, everyone's eyes filled with intense hatred and unwillingness, mountain gates collapsing everywhere, countless cultivators soaring through the sky, eyes bloodshot.
On the streets.
A child holding a rattle cries out, searching for their family, only to be crushed into a pile of flesh by a flying boulder, leaving only a severed limb holding the rattle.
A newlywed procession passes along the official road, the bride full of hope for the future, the groom full of spirit, bowing to the four directions.
Yet all this is destroyed in an instant, the heavens unleash their killing intent, stars shift, the earth unleashes its killing intent, dragons and snakes rise!
Rumble! Rumble!
The sound of great explosions echoes across the four corners of the world, everywhere the earth is cracking, like the end of the world of immortals.
The entire mortal realm and world of immortals fall into chaos in an instant, in just a moment, hundreds of thousands, even millions die, ancient city walls collapse, royal cities of various nations sink, the heavens and earth tilt!
Panning City, with its walls standing for thousands of years, collapses with a roar, an unnamed blacksmith's shop turns to dust, following the ancient city into eternal oblivion.
Outside the city, the protective formation around Old Sun Mountain dissipates, the mountain crumbles inch by inch, even the formation only holding for the time it takes a stick of incense to burn.
The ancestral shrine of the Ning family falls into the abyss, the Ning family members kneel, crying to the heavens, praying for the ancestor's arrival.
But in just a moment, the energy is drawn away, all the Ning family mortals' pupils contract, unwillingly falling to the ground, either crushed by boulders or falling into the endless abyss...
