Chapter 531: The Disappearance of the Gods
In the eerie world, four terrifying ancient beasts stood before the colossal Mount Buzhou, filled with uncertainty and astonishment.
Up ahead, beneath the resolute aura and pervasive malevolence of Mount Buzhou, the previously intensifying sense of dread surprisingly subsided as the Celestial Desolation Realm regained its strength and a new era emerged.
At this moment, it has even completely vanished, seemingly having slipped into a deep slumber, no longer resembling the terrifying state that it could have awakened from at any moment.
The four great beasts felt relieved upon sensing such a situation.
"Wonderful"
"The bloody hell is frightening"
Even the ancient four beasts, notorious for their ferocity, harbor things that they fear.
Fortunately, the terrifying presence is now once again peacefully dormant, with no actual awakening.
While in the Eternal Pure Land, Lu Heng, at this moment, gently opened his eyes, awakening from his seclusion.
His brow slightly furrowed.
The expression on his face also carried a touch of perplexity.
In the four thousand years within the Eternal Pure Land, he had already refined nine Peach Fruits.
Now, Lu Heng's prowess has surpassed his former self, and he has gained a fresh understanding of the path of cultivation.
If we speak of strength, the original thirteenth progenitor who once intimidated him into refraining from rash actions, now stands on relatively equal footing with him.
However, he still has sixteen Peach Fruits remaining
The original him believed that the thirteen progenitors of the Seven Realms had already reached a realm close to immortality, transcending the ordinary comprehension of an innate cultivator.
However, as of now, he has only refined a mere ten peach fruits. There is still a vast distance to fully restore his strength, yet the gap between him and those thirteen progenitors is not significant Is this transcendent, eternal, and immortal realm truly so powerful? Even the oldest thirteen progenitors in the Seven Realms cannot approach such a state?
Lu Heng found it rather extraordinary.
Amongst this, there must be some kind of hidden cause.
His intuition told him that the silent thirteenth progenitor, who stood in deep space, refining the Celestial Emperor's Bell, was certainly not as simple as it appeared on the surface.
Therefore, Lu Heng, who had originally intended to conclude the refinement, once again secluded himself in order to continue refining peach fruits, aiming to elevate his cultivation to a higher realm.
With his current cultivation, although theoretically there was no need for Lu Heng to fear that thirteenth progenitor, he still felt a sense of unease.
And this seclusion lasted for five thousand years.
During the five thousand years, Lu Heng only managed to refine a total of two peach fruits.
When his cultivation approached the level of the seventh progenitor, the speed of refining peach fruits significantly decelerated, as if there was an intangible force suppressing him, rendering it difficult for him to easily break through the constraints of cultivation.
And if he were to depart from the Eternal Pure Land and return to the celestial realms, this intangible suppressing force becomes even more apparent and formidable.
The speed of cultivation during these five thousand years is far inferior to that of the previous period!
Lu Heng, who was in seclusion, once again opened his eyes, his consciousness returning to this realm.
His expression, slightly bewildered.
It is not because of the arduous obstacles in cultivation, but rather due to an unexpected turn of events in the Starry Sky Tomb!
With a single thought, the manifestation of the divine soul within the Eternal Pure Land dissipated. Meanwhile, inside the Starry Sky Tomb, a colossal white wolf, drifting within the sea of stars, abruptly opened its eyes.
Amidst the cosmos below, a sapphire-blue planet silently orbits under the gravitational pull of a colossal star.
In that very moment just now, he astonishingly lost the connection with the gods of the Heavenly Court!
Those numerous cultivators, who were once ceremoniously appointed to their divine positions in the Cloud Sea Sky Palace, have now completely severed their connection with his consciousness, as if they have vanished from this realm entirely.
This sudden and unexpected anomaly caught Lu Heng completely off guard.
The gigantic white wolf transformed directly into a flash of thunderous white light and shot out from the pitch-black expanse of the cosmic starry sky, descending straight onto the azure planet below.
Upon the Earth at this moment, a new form of life has long since taken dominion over the mainstream of the biosphere.
It was a group of colossal insectoid creatures, with the largest among them stretching hundreds of meters in length. Their menacing exoskeletons exuded a terrifying aura, making them the most fearsome predators on Earth. Even the smallest swarms of insects, measuring only a few millimeters, ravaged the wilderness, devouring all living beings in their path.
The Earth, once ruled by humanity, has now witnessed waves of successive rulership changes.
Lu Heng, in this regard, didn't have a significant impression.
He descended directly onto the vast mountain range on Earth.
The former Himalayan mountain range, once the pinnacle of the Earth, has now reached a height several times greater than its origin after millions of years of geological activity.
The dazzling expanse of snowy plains stretches in a crisscross pattern, with each mountain peak in sight towering even higher than the legendary Mount Everest.
While Lu Heng flew directly across this vast expanse of snowy plains, he entered a mythical gateway nestled within the snowy landscape.
--Fu Xi Treasure Trove.
This supreme realm, opened here according to the posthumous order of the Emperor by descendants of Xuanyuan, during the collapse of the Heavenly Court in the primordial era, once assisted Lu Heng in his previous life to embark on the path of cultivation. Although Lu Heng ultimately achieved transcendence and relinquished the lineage of Fu Xi, attaining eternal enlightenment through his own comprehension of heavenly thunder, this place still holds great significance for Lu Heng as a cherished site.
Furthermore, the Fu Xi Treasure Trove is imbued with spiritual energy, making it an excellent refuge for cultivators of the Celestial Desolation Realm.
As a result, after the gods of the Heavenly Court arrived on Earth, Lu Heng allowed them to take temporary shelter inside the Fu Xi Treasure Trove.
However, they never anticipated that these cultivators would completely vanish from Lu Heng's telepathic senses Could there be another mystery hidden within the depths of the Fu Xi Treasure Trove?
Perplexed, Lu Heng entered the Fu Xi Treasure Trove, and before his eyes appeared a realm adorned with ethereal spiritual energy, encompassing majestic mountains and rivers.
Although the quality of spiritual energy may fall far short of the World of Eight Desolations, it is already a unique existence within the realms of the heavens.
Above the firmament, there is a magnificent and grand Cloud Sea Sky Palace suspended in the air.
However, at this moment, the Cloud Sea Sky Palace was empty and barren. Lu Heng searched throughout the entire Fu Xi Treasure Trove, but could not find any trace of the gods from the Heavenly Court.
Gu Yan, Candle Dragon, Jiu Mie, Lian Cangqing These relatives and friends who should have been cultivating within the treasure trove have now vanished completely, not leaving a trace of information behind.
Lu Heng stood alone in the empty expanse of the heavens and earth, feeling somewhat bewildered.
"This is the Fu Xi Treasure Trove," Lu Heng believed that even if there were hidden secrets, they would not harm the lives of the gods. After all, the beings in the Celestial Desolation Realm share the same origin as the Fu Xi Treasure Trove.
However, the sudden disappearance of everyone left Lu Heng deeply concerned.
He meticulously searched inside and out of the Fu Xi Treasure Trove for half a year, combing through this relatively vast microcosm almost a hundred times over. Every blade of grass was scrutinized, yet the trace and whereabouts of everyone remained elusive.
Finally, carrying a glimmer of hope, Lu Heng departed from the Starry Sky Tomb and made his way towards the Celestial Desolation Realm, intending to seek answers within the Demon Subduing Stele Forest.
After all, the ancient beings within the Demon Subduing Stele Forest are descendants of Fu Xi and the Heavenly Court. They might possess knowledge of the mysteries within the Fu Xi Treasure Trove.
However, when Lu Heng crossed the vast expanse of space, successfully arrived at the Celestial Desolation Realm, and bypassed the revived blockade of the Earthly Behemoth, he was unable to witness the expanse of Mandala flowers in the South Sea.
The vast expanse of Mandala flowers, the Demon Subduing Stele Forest, the ancient battleground everything, has vanished completely from this world.
Standing on the desolate plain, Lu Heng fell silent.
It seems that, in the near future, he might be unable to reunite with his loved ones, Gu Yan and Candle Dragon.
The disappearance of the Celestial Desolation Realm within the Fu Xi Treasure Trove, as well as the vanishing of this sea of Mandala flowers, should not be a mere coincidence.
Inside, there might be some sort of connection.
However, the present Lu Heng remains temporarily unaware.
Having searched fruitlessly, he ultimately returned within the confines of the Eternal Pure Land, commencing once again the refining of the peach fruits.
The day when the Celestial Emperor's Bell is fully restored by the Primordial Ancestors of the Seven Realms is drawing nearer and nearer. Lu Heng might not find it so easy to employ the same old methods and destroy the Celestial Emperor's Bell once again in his next attempt.
This time, he must make thorough preparations for bankruptcy and the bloodshed by the Primordial Ancestors of the Seven Realms.
And the cultivation advancement, in such a critical moment, becomes even more crucial.
