Chapter 151: The Mystery of the Immortal Realm Invasion
"He said, 'In this universe, besides the Immortal Realm and the Nine Mystic Realm, there used to be tens of thousands of other realms, big and small.'"
"Millions of years ago, everyone coexisted peacefully."
"Until eighty million years ago, the Immortal Realm suddenly went mad and started invading the Myriad Demon Realm."
"At first, people from all realms didn't take it seriously."
"After all, the Myriad Demon Realm was inhabited by demons."
"Everyone always thought they were different from them."
"So no realm went to help."
"Everyone watched from the sidelines."
"As a result, in just a few million years, the Immortal Realm completely destroyed the Myriad Demon Realm."
"Even the dominant races of the Myriad Demon Realm, like the Dragon Clan, Phoenix Clan, White Tiger Clan, and Basalt Clan, were almost wiped out, with only a few escaping."At this point, Guo Qing sighed, "Sigh, it wasn't until then that the strong ones from all realms realized the severity of the situation."
"After destroying the Myriad Demon Realm, the Immortal Realm didn't stop."
"They became even more rampant."
"They began large-scale invasions of other realms."
"At first, many realms were still not alarmed; our Nine Mystic Realm was the same."
"After all, our strengths were about the same."
"But no one knew that the strength of the Immortal Realm had already changed after destroying the Myriad Demon Realm!"
Guo Qing paused, then continued, "Until thirty million years ago, the Immortal Realm finally set its sights on invading our Nine Mystic Realm."
"It was then that we realized the Saint realm experts of the Immortal Realm had far surpassed ours."
"But our Saint realm experts in the Nine Mystic Realm did not fear battle."
"That battle lasted over ten million years."
"Our Nine Mystic Realm suffered heavy casualties, the realm shattered, and several Saint realm experts died."
At this point, Guo Qing's voice became somewhat passionate, "But we did not lose!"
"Our compatriots continued to rush to the battlefield."
Hearing this, you felt a surge of blood boiling within you for some reason.
But Guo Qing's voice then turned somber and sad, "I was one of them too!"
"Unfortunately, my skills were lacking, and I ended up with my physical body destroyed, leaving only a wisp of my primordial spirit to survive!"
You could clearly hear the dejection in Guo Qing's tone, as if he was blaming himself for being useless.
But your attention wasn't on that right now.
You felt something was off.
Guo Qing had left many things unsaid.
What he mentioned so far had little to do with the Southern Regions or you!
Just as you were about to ask more, Guo Qing's voice rang out again.
He said, "Before I died, I heard from my master that a Saint realm expert had discovered the secret behind the Immortal Realm's invasion of other realms."
"Apparently, the people of the Immortal Realm had obtained a method to devour the Heavenly Dao from somewhere."
"That's why they started invading other realms; their goal was to devour the Heavenly Dao of other realms."
"My master said that upon learning this, the Saint realm experts of the Nine Mystic Realm were immediately divided into factions!"
"Some Saint realm experts believed that even if the realm was destroyed and the Heavenly Dao shattered, it wouldn't affect them personally."
"They proposed abandoning the fight against the Immortal Realm and instead invading other realms to seize their Heavenly Dao."
"But some Saint realm experts believed that the Nine Mystic Realm, being their birthplace, must be defended to the death against the Immortal Realm's invasion."
"The result was a bitter fallout."
At this point, Guo Qing looked a bit dejected.
But soon, he became somewhat agitated again.
"The conflict among the Saint realm experts put our Nine Mystic Realm at a disadvantage."
"At that time, we all thought the Nine Mystic Realm would follow in the footsteps of the Myriad Demon Realm."
"But just then, a pair of peerless experts, a man and a woman, appeared."
"They suppressed all the Saint realm experts with a wave of their hands."
"And they declared that no Saint realm expert was allowed to participate in the battle!"
"They made the Saint realm experts of our Nine Mystic Realm and the Immortal Realm sign some kind of agreement!"
"After that, our Nine Mystic Realm got a chance to catch its breath."
"But due to the fragmentation of the Heavenly Dao, our Chosen were far fewer than those of the Immortal Realm. Over time, even without the Saint realm experts fighting, we quickly fell behind again."
"So my master set up a defensive formation in the Southern Regions to block the Immortals and allow the people here to recuperate, hoping to nurture new Chosen."
"But this action seemed to break some agreement, and the Saint realm experts of the Immortal Realm soon arrived and took over the formation in the Southern Regions."
"The protective formation in the Southern Regions became a sealing formation!"
"After that, my master, for reasons unknown, used great power to carve out a corner of the Eastern Regions of the Nine Mystic Realm and retreated into seclusion!"
"He wanted to take me with him at that time, but I refused and even left the sect because of it."
"Looking back now, perhaps my master had already lost hope for the Nine Mystic Realm at that time!"
Hearing this, you understood the reason behind the Immortal Realm's invasion.
You also understood why the Saint realm experts of the Immortal Realm didn't take action.
Because that man and woman had intervened.
With such powerful beings who could suppress Saint realm experts speaking, the experts of the Immortal Realm dared not disobey.
However, you thought these two were probably not from the Nine Mystic Realm; otherwise, with their ability to suppress Saint realm experts, they could have just killed all the Immortals.
There wouldn't have been any need for such roundabout measures.
But what was their reason for doing this?
Suddenly, you felt this might have something to do with you.
No, that's not right!
Suddenly, you thought of Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya.
They were from millions of years ago, and they also attracted the attention of the Saint realm experts from the Immortal Realm!
So, to be precise, the restriction on Saint realm experts not taking action was in the Southern Regions?
No, that's still not right!
During your last simulation, when you crossed the tribulation to become an immortal, it also attracted the attention of Saint realm experts.
So, was it a restriction specifically targeting people from the Southern Regions?
But why didn't anything happen when Little Peach crossed her tribulation to become an immortal?
After pondering for a long time, you finally shook your head and stopped thinking about it.
You felt that this restriction was definitely related to the Southern Regions, but you couldn't guess the specifics for now.
Since you couldn't figure it out, you thought you might as well ask.
So you asked Guo Qing about Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya.
But unfortunately, Guo Qing didn't know them!
He had died millions of years ago.
At that time, Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya hadn't been born yet!
Then you remembered what Bai Moyu had said in a previous simulation, that Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya had received his sect's inheritance.
This inheritance was left by his disciple, so it should have been left by Guo Qing.
You asked Guo Qing again if he had left any inheritance.
Guo Qing was surprised to hear this.
He didn't know how you knew he had left an inheritance.
But soon, he seemed to understand.
After all, Bai Ruoxue had entrusted the Heavenly Profound Sword to you.
He thought it was normal for you to know about the inheritance he left in the Southern Regions.
