Chapter 343: Chapter 334: Outer World (Fifth Update)

"The Exterminating-Immortal Sword... has broken!"

Everyone gasped as they watched the sword plunge into the earth, creating a deep crater, and then burst into cheers.

Humming!

In the Divine King’s hands, the Golden Sword trembled as if extremely excited, seemingly conveying something.

"Ten thousand years have passed... my body will decay... and you’ve found a new master..."

He stared at the golden sword, his eyes hollow and lifeless, as if in a daze, reminiscing.

"Go... he too is of the Divine King Body... he will not bury you..."

Finally, Ling Changkong uttered these words before the Golden Sword flew from his hand, landing in front of Mo Wangchen and returning to his Spirit Sea.

"Was the Primordial Spirit Dao Embryo of the Divine King Body once a Magical Treasure Saint Weapon of Ling Changkong?" Everyone was astonished, discerning this meaning from Ling Changkong’s words.

No wonder Mo Wangchen’s Primordial Spirit Dao Embryo was so terrifying, even able to shatter the congenital Tao Laws of the Immortal Bone Body.

Thunderous rumbles!

Suddenly, the earth trembled slightly under Ling Changkong. The ground there tore apart, releasing an unrivaled radiance, and the next moment, a figure in a long white dress slowly emerged.

This was a stunningly beautiful woman, her clothes fluttering gently, untouched by the mundane world, like an immortal descending to earth.

"The Yaochi Saintess from one hundred thousand years ago!"

Someone recognized the woman and exclaimed.

"It’s been ten thousand years... we meet again..."

Amid everyone’s astonishment, the Yaochi Saintess slowly began to speak, her voice clear and resonating, as she gazed at Ling Changkong with eyes gentle as water.

Ling Changkong looked at her, silent for a long time, his voice resonating through heaven and earth, "Was it worth severing your imperial heart..."

The Yaochi Saintess didn’t speak; instead, her face broke into a beautiful, captivating smile.

Ling Changkong then fell silent, and everyone around remained speechless. The ancient books of Tian Nan held many records of him and the Yaochi Saintess.

Their conversation had spanned one hundred thousand years.

"In the endless ages, we were never meant to be..."

After a moment of silence, Ling Changkong shook his head and sighed deeply, feeling the vicissitudes of time. He raised his hand and pointed in a certain direction, far away.

Thunderous rumbles!

Suddenly, a sound echoed, and a million miles away within the Liyuan Tomb, an ice bed emerged. On it lay a woman whose features were identical to those of the Yaochi Saintess.

The ice bed flew from within the Liyuan Tomb and arrived in this part of the sky within a few breaths.

"Yaoyao!"

Mo Wangchen stepped forward from the crowd, recognizing the person lying on the ice bed—it was indeed Yaoyao.

She looked pale as snow, lost in a deep sleep, as if she could never awaken.

"She is your reincarnation, a thread of obsession originating from when you severed your imperial heart..."

Ling Changkong looked at the Yaochi Saintess, his voice serene. After a moment, he turned his eyes to Mo Wangchen, "Nine Revolutions Nirvana, she can no longer wake. Do you wish for her to remain in eternal slumber, or... to live again?"

"Senior, is there a way to awaken Yaoyao?" Mo Wangchen asked.

"Yes."

Ling Changkong responded blandly and looked at Mo Wangchen. After a pause, he spoke again, "But once awake, you may never see her again."

"Why?" Mo Wangchen furrowed his brows, somewhat puzzled.

Ling Changkong remained silent, not answering, merely waiting for Mo Wangchen’s response.

After a moment, Mo Wangchen took a deep breath, "I hope... she can awaken."

"If so, before I leave, I will grant her one last act of creation..."

The voice fell, and Ling Changkong turned around, facing the endless heavenly vault. He reached out his hand, and immediately, the entire sky filled with surging dark clouds, as if the apocalypse was approaching.

Crack!

The skies above Beiming were enveloped in darkness. At that moment, the sky tore apart and a massive ’eye’ slowly opened.

This eye had appeared once before when Mo Wangchen crossed the Other Shore Bridge!

"Ten thousand years ago, I promised you that I would guard Tiannan, suppressing the Exterminating-Immortal Sword in this realm for a hundred thousand years. Now that the Exterminating-Immortal Sword is destroyed, your promise should be fulfilled..."

Ling Changkong floated, facing the gigantic eye above the heavenly vault, communicating with it.

Everyone at the scene gasped, looking at the ’Heavenly Vault Eye’. Within this realm, there truly seemed to be a being controlling everything.

What kind of deal had Divine King Ling Changkong made with that Heavenly Vault Eye?

He had promised to guard this realm and suppress the Exterminating-Immortal Sword for a hundred thousand years!

What was the promise of the other party?

"After the great age of the Ancients, you sealed the Tian Nan Barrier, making the Heaven and Earth Source Qi thin and making it vague for one to become an emperor. The Exterminating-Immortal Sword was your inner demon and the reason for sealing the barrier. Now that it has been destroyed by me, the barrier should be withdrawn..."

Ling Changkong’s words spread across Beiming, and throughout the whole of Tiannan, allowing everyone to hear.

...

"Barrier?"

In West Earth, atop Lingshan, the Reincarnated Buddha heard the echoing voice and furrowed his brow.

Beside him, Shakyamuni stayed silent for a long time before finally speaking. "Since the conclusion of the grand epoch of the Ancients, this Heaven and Earth has had a barrier, severing the opportunities for numerous beings to become emperors. Throughout the eons, the chance of becoming an emperor has lessened."

Hearing this, the Reincarnated Buddha turned his eyes towards him, knowing that Shakyamuni was the founder of the Ancient Buddha Sect, and with the improvement of his cultivation, his memories gradually recovered, revealing many things unknown to common people.

"If the barrier disperses, a Starry Sky Ancient Road will be opened, leading to the Outer World. Many years ago in the Ancient Times, I once left Tiannan and saw that there... lies the true great world!"

As he spoke, a fiery passion emerged in Shakyamuni’s eyes.

...

Buzz!

Meanwhile, in the boundless skies above Beiming, as Ling Changkong’s words were spoken, the entire Heaven and Earth slightly trembled. The next moment, the darkness enveloping Beiming disappeared, and the sky once again became bright.

This brightness was different from before; it had become much clearer. Normally, the stars could only be seen at night, but now, they could also be seen during the day.

"Outer World!"

At this moment, the world was shaken. The Outer World, recorded in ancient texts, always existed in theory but had never been seen by anyone. Unexpectedly, the Outer World truly existed.

Buzz!

As the sky regained clarity, an unprecedented breath spread down from the endless heavenly vault, and in the blink of an eye, this breath enveloped the whole of Tiannan, stirring everyone’s hearts.

"Source Energy!"

"What a magnificent Source Energy!"

"In this environment, our cultivation will advance by leaps and bounds!"

...

In the Eastern Desolate, within a continuous mountain range, deep underground sat a reclusive powerful being. He was a thin old man who seemed as if he could die at any moment.

Upon sensing the influx of Source Energy, he suddenly opened his eyes.

"Becoming an emperor... Is it possible now..."

...

"I know you have a way to revive her. The Nine Revolutions Body, even in the Outer World, is extremely rare. Take her away. This is my only request."

Ling Changkong floated between Heaven and Earth, bringing the ice bed to the front of the ’Heavenly Vault Eye’.

The large eye remained motionless, as if in silence. After a long while, a sigh came through, echoing like Immortal Sound, indistinguishable as either male or female – a sigh from the ’Heavenly Vault’.

The next moment, the eye closed, disappearing as if it had never appeared. Simultaneously, the ice bed and Yaoyao on it also vanished, completely leaving this world.
