Chapter 999: A strange change, A land cursed by the Will of Heaven

“According to the investigation, Sword City, which once sunk into the depths, is buried in Mirror Lake. It is the birthplace of all sects in the current Jianxuan world…”

Another Enlightened being spoke softly at this moment, his eyes slowly sweeping across the ruins surrounded by silky mist in front of him.

Even at their level, it was difficult to see through the many restrictions at a glance, which showed how mysterious and weird this place was. And the most palpitating thing was that the secrets here were extremely chaotic and full of ominous auras.

Gu Changge’s eyes were inexplicable, and he shook his head when he heard the words before saying, “I just heard about this place, and I don’t know much about it.”

The reason why he showed up in the way of helping Princess Xuandie was actually to let everyone help him find the entrance of Mirror Lake.

In this way, he would also have a chance to secretly sneak in. After all, no matter what, if the origin of the world fell into his hands, it would definitely cause great disturbances when he returned to the Upper Realm.

Although Gu Changge was not afraid of trouble, he still intended to seek the origin of the world secretly, adhering to the principle of being able to do less.

For those who were already standing in the Realm of Enlightenment, the temptation of the origin of the world was self-evident, It was enough to make them go crazy and fight for their lives.

“In that case, why don’t Young Lord Changge and I strike together to break open this place and see if we can find the entrance to that Mirror Lake?”

This old Emperor of the Great Yu Immortal Dynasty smiled, his gaze moved slightly, and he opened his mouth to ask.

While speaking, Princess Yu Feiya and others who were following behind the old Emperor of the Great Yu Immortal Dynasty alighted from the ancient warship.

Yu Feiya gave a slight salute to Gu Changge as a greeting. Although she and Gu Changge were considered acquainted, it was still not easy to go forward to say hello in this situation.

In fact, Yu Feiya also had a lot of doubt in her heart and wanted to ask Gu Changge if he knew the whereabouts of Tuoba Xiaoyao. After hearing the news of Tuoba Xiaoyao’s death, she sent people to investigate, but there was no clue.

Although she didn’t know why she had a weird intuition in her heart, she felt that Gu Changge might know about it.

“I won’t participate in this matter, I just came to join in the fun.” Gu Changge waved his hand and smiled faintly as he rejected the request of the old Emperor of the Great Yu Immortal Dynasty.

Hearing this, although the Enlightened beings of other forces and sects looked disappointed on the surface, they were relieved in their hearts. They were actually very worried that Gu Changge would meddle.

With his strength and background, no one here really dared to provoke him. When the time comes, if they really discovered the origin of the world, they might not be able to bear the temptation in their hearts and do something about it.

In this way, Gu Changge would inevitably be offended.

“With the strength of Young Master Changge, it is really a pity…” The old Emperor of the Great Yu Immortal Dynasty shook his head regretfully, but he was actually relieved like everyone else.

Gu Changge smiled slightly and didn’t say much. Alpha stood beside him, like a terrifying mountain on the periphery, not choosing to enter the ruins.

The Ancient Xuan ruins were huge, covering tens of thousands of miles. In addition to many broken Mountains, there were some collapsed structures, where the former palaces and many mural columns could be seen.

With the arrival of the so-called extraterrestrial demons here, the powerful sects of many forces who rushed here before did not dare to move around and did not dare to send their disciples to search for the whereabouts of Mirror Lake.

At the outermost periphery of the Ancient Xuan ruins, almost everyone from the Jianxuan world had gathered here.

Yi Jianxian, Snow Sword Immortal, and many other Sword Immortals also stood there silently, looking at the many powerhouses from the Upper Realm not far away, using various secret methods, and exploring the ominousness of this place.

“If they are the first to find the location of the Mirror Lake, the consequences will be unimaginable,” Yi Jianxian said softly, with worried eyes.

Snow Sword Immortal on the side looked at Gu Changge who was talking with many Enlightened beings from the Upper Realm not far away, his mood was not peaceful.

“Do you think that if Mr. Gu speaks out to stop all this, how likely will he succeed?” She asked Yi Jianxian.

Yi Jianxian also didn’t expect her to suddenly say that and was a little stunned for a while.

“Although Mr. Gu has no malice towards our world, how could he take action to save our world?”

Afterward, he shook his head, the possibility of this happening was basically zero.

Xue Jianxian also gave a wry smile, feeling that she was out of line, why should they be worthy of Gu Changge’s saving them like this?

Before that, they didn’t tell Gu Changge about Mirror Lake. And just when the people around the Ancient Xuan ruins began to explore this place, in the depths shrouded in thick silky mist.

Lin En was glowing all over, even his hair was golden, like the son of a god, standing solemnly in front of a collapsed ancient temple, with a shining key that floated up and down in his hand.

He could clearly feel that there was ancient sword intent intertwined here, and judging from his perception, there was definitely more than one sword intent. Perhaps many divine swords from the Ancient Xuan Dynasty were enshrined in this ancient temple, and the aura of those divine swords had been left over time.

The key given to him by the white-robed old man in the Boundless Immortal Valley, also exuded a misty brilliance after arriving here. It was clear that deep within this crumbling ancient temple, something was attracting it.

Lin En felt that it was the sword city buried in Mirror Lake, and there was definitely a hint of heaven and earth there.

“Besides the Ancient Xuan ruins, too many powerhouses have gathered, even the most powerful men among the extraterrestrial demons have descended, so I have to be careful.”

Thinking of this, Lin En took out the key, his heart gradually calmed down, and he began to walk toward the collapsed ancient temple ahead.

Buzz!!

Soon, bursts of rippling brilliance emanated from the front, as if there was an invisible portal in the void.

“There really is a hidden space here…” Lin En walked in, looking a little surprised, seeing the scene in the ancient temple.

There was a small world with vast forests, tall mountains, a vast sky, and a sea of clouds. And now he was standing at the entrance, surrounded by many mountains that were too high to see the top.

Going down the mountain, he could see a series of steps which were extremely sacred, leading to the bottom, as if a pilgrimage.

In the deepest part of this space, Lin En saw a sky-reaching tower which was golden, magnificent, and so high that he could not see the bottom as it stood tall among the clouds.

In addition, there were many birds and beasts in this space which looked extremely holy. Even their feathers were shining brightly like the divine beasts. They would not be surprised meeting people.

“Could it be that Mirror Lake is right next to the tower that reaches the sky…”

Lin En looked at the scene in the distance, and his figure moved along the mountain where he was, walking toward the stairs below before disappearing into the deep forest.

Near the tower, there was a silvery light. As if there was an ancient and flaming lake, reflecting the brilliance of the sky, which was extremely gorgeous.

Lin En felt that the world environment here and the world environment outside were two apart. There was a strong divine and holy atmosphere flowing, which could make people feel at ease.

One must know that when he was in the outside world, there was an astonishing ominous atmosphere, and even weird things happened. However, in this space, there was a completely different scene of tranquility, which was really unimaginable.

Lin En didn’t have time to think about it now as he seized the time to go deep, planning to get to that high tower in the first place. And when Lin En stepped into this place, a huge change occurred in the Ancient Xuan ruins.

The terrifying whistling sound came from nowhere and accompanied by the howling all over the sky, many ghosts emerged, walking out from every corner of the ruins.

At the same time, the black mist surged crazily, overwhelming the area where cultivators from all walks of life gathered.

“What happened, why is this place suddenly like this…”

“Why are there so many ghosts?”

This sudden scene caused all the people in Jianxuan Great World to change their faces drastically. They went pale and terrified. They were very frightened and disturbed by all this, and retreated towards the edge area.

But the speed of this black mist was really too fast, and there was even a strange aura intertwined in it, which could cover the souls of cultivators, making it difficult for them to perceive the surroundings as their eyes were plunged into darkness.

The moment many people were swept in by the black mist, they screamed, and then the sound stopped abruptly. Immediately afterward, there was a sound of bones breaking and chewing, as if some terrifying beast was hiding in it, waiting for an opportunity to devour someone.

“What is in this black mist?”

Yi Jianxian and the others unleashed their divine swords, slashed out the towering sword energy. They tried to separate the black mist, but the result that followed shocked them and made them a little unbelievable.

The weird thing hidden in the black mist could even swallow their sword energy, like a mud cow entering the sea, it suddenly disappeared without a trace.

“Even the ice seal can’t stop it?” On the other side, Snow Sword Immortal’s brows frowned. She was also trying to create a cloud of ice and snow with her bare hands.

It contained absolute freezing laws, but when it touched this black mist, it also collapsed and broke with a click, turning into dusty ashes all over the sky.

Rumble!!

At the same time, the entire Ancient Xuan ruins seemed to come alive suddenly. There were vibrations everywhere, rocks broke, and ghosts emerged from the collapsed palaces.

The strange aura continued to permeate, making everyone terrified and frightened, and their skin became cold.

“Has a corpse come back to life?” Ah Qing and Princess Xuandie turned pale, and couldn’t help but retreat, feeling that everything in front of them was too illusory and unreal.

Just in front of them, several earthen tombs cracked open, filled with thick black mist, and then continuously cracked towards both sides.

This was a very strange scene. The old graves were cracking open, and rotten bones stuck out as they slowly climbed up. Such a scene was really unbelievable and terrifying.

Even the rotten and disfigured bone dregs were forming a skeleton as they were rapidly growing bloody flesh. Then the armor of the heavenly soldiers that had already turned into dust in the tomb also changed, clanging, before turning into battle clothes that covered their bodies.

Those heavenly soldiers were pale and expressionless. Their armor covered their bodies while they walked out step by step with weapons in hand, arranged in a square formation, and pushed forward.

“Resurrection of the dead? What a heaven-defying method is this?” This made everyone who witnessed this scene almost unbelievable. Their scalps exploded, and the pores were filled with cold air.

They couldn’t figure it out. How could someone really live forever? Or were these heavenly soldiers never dead and had always been sleeping in the Ancient Xuan ruins?

Could it be that they were the heavenly soldiers and generals of the Ancient Xuan Dynasty?

“There is indeed a strange place here. These corpses are in a half-dead state, and it seems that they still have some sanity.”

An Enlightened being who came here from the Upper Realm narrowed his eyes slightly, and strands of golden light filled the air as he provided an explanation. The other Enlightened beings also nodded. They didn’t do anything, but still stood at the outermost edge of the ruins. They didn’t intend to act rashly.

This place was extremely weird and even they were not very sure.

“These celestial soldiers should have been cursed extremely horribly. They cannot leave this place for life and death. They can only guard here in the state of the living dead.”

“The old man only saw it in some ruins in the Upper Realm, and the number of living dead at that time was far less than here,” the old Emperor of the Great Yu Immortal Dynasty said with a slightly gloomy face and tried to slap it away with a palm.

Suddenly thunder roared, and world-shaking power emerged. The vast force crushed and fell, destroying the sky and destroying the earth, directly crushing the heavenly soldiers in front into powder.

But at the next moment, those soldiers who had been turned into dust began to reorganize because of strange power and returned to their original appearance. Such a scene not only changed the faces of several Enlightened beings but also made Yi Jianxian and others who were not far away terrified and had cold hands and feet.

They never thought that there was such a terrible crisis in these Ancient Xuan ruins.

“It seems that ordinary methods won’t work, and they can’t get through. Someone must have entered the depths of the ruins in advance and touched something.”

There was a strange look in Gu Changge’s eyes, and then he calmly shook his head as if guessing. He felt that Lin En, the Son of Luck in this world, had found the entrance to Mirror Lake, which led to great changes in the outside world.

Contacting the memory of the Will of Heaven that had been devoured before, Gu Changge understood that it was because of the taboo of the Ancient Xuan Dynasty that he touched, and tried to build the ancestral temple and communicate with the ancient heroic souls, which were destroyed by the awakened part of the Will of Heaven.

All the living dead here, as well as many strange auras, could be said to be the handwriting of the Will of Heaven. But these things had nothing to do with him.

“Now that the entrance to Mirror Lake has been opened, things will be much easier…” Gu Changge didn’t intend to leave, he was still waiting as the time had not yet arrived.

“Don’t get caught up first.”

Hearing Gu Changge’s words, the old Emperor of the Great Yu Immortal Dynasty and other Enlightened beings trembled in their hearts, a little worried that they would be the first to get ahead and take away their fruits in advance.

At that moment, their eyes showed coldness, and they reached out with their big hands to cover the sky, and arrested several Sword Immortals, intending to let them go to explore the way first.

“If you don’t go in, then none of you will leave alive today.”

“All of you will be buried here.”

The incomparable indifference of their words, the unquestionable will, and the terrifying pressure caused everyone in the Jianxuan Great World to collapse and almost explode into blood mist.

Facing these so-called ants, they didn’t have any of the humble fear they had when they were in front of Gu Changge. Even Yi Jianxian, Snow Sword Immortal, and others were arrested and asked to explore the way ahead and venture deep into the black mist.

They had no choice, if they resisted, they would only be turned into a blood mist, and their bodies and spirits would be wiped out. At this time, they finally understood the gap between Gu Changge and the other powerhouses, and their hearts were even more bitter.

Gu Changge’s attitude was a million times better than this group of powerhouses. Maybe they were not as good as the real ants.

“If you want to live, don’t try to resist.” Gu Changge shook his head lightly with some pity and said to Yi Jianxian and the others.

The rest of the people in Jianxuan Great World were all trembling with fear, not daring to move, staying in a place like a group of prisoners.
