In the palace, the divine light was shining brightly around a ma.s.s of flowing starlight, interweaving and converging in the void, with inexplicable laws and condensed rhymes.
One by one, Heavenly Artifacts emerged, exuding different colors of light and principles, floating up and down, containing unimaginable and unpredictable power, which seemed to be able to collapse the void and obliterate everything.
This was the Heavenly Artifact that had been handed down since before the ancient era of Immortals. It claimed to have the power of Heaven. The method of refining was unknown. There was even a saying that the Heavenly Artifacts were innate objects. However, there were very few such claims, and it was impossible to know whether they were true or false.
After gathering all Seven Heavenly Artifacts, one could even condense a Heavenly Key to open the secret treasure of the Immortal Palace. Immortal Palace, which had been a rumor in the Upper Realm for countless years, because it involved the Immortal Palace before the taboo era.
At that time, the Immortal Domain and the Upper Realm had not yet been separated, and the entire Heaven and myriad domains were ruled by the Immortal Palace. The territory was endless and unimaginable. All the cultivators and creatures were the citizens of the Immortal Palace, and under its protection, they never had to worry.
If it wasn’t for the catastrophe that happened to the world later, a sudden catastrophe swept across the entire heavens, causing the Immortal Palace to collapse, the long river of time to dry up, and everything to return into chaos. Even the world was buried, and it became a taboo period that no one dared to mention again.
The people of later generations would call that era the Forbidden Era. And among the secret treasures of the Immortal Palace were the treasures acc.u.mulated by the Immortal Palace for countless epochs. The immortal treasures hidden in it surpa.s.sed the imagination of all the cultivators in this world.
To put it bluntly, if the news of the secret treasure of the Immortal Palace was leaked out, it would inevitably set off a boundless b.l.o.o.d.y storm, and even the Immortal Domain would also be alarmed.
Only by collecting all seven pieces of Heavenly Artifacts could it be possible to find the location of the secret treasure of the Immortal Palace. However, during this period of time, Yue Mingkong had exhausted many methods and only condensed four Heavenly Artifacts. If she wanted to completely condense the Seven Heavenly Artifacts, so as to refine the key, she would need to spend more time and energy.
“It’s okay, just leave the Heavenly Sword, Heavenly Bottle, and Heavenly Tower to me. It seems that I underestimated the difficulty of this matter, but there is no hurry now, the secret treasure of the Immortal Palace may not be in the Upper Realm…” Gu Changge shook his head and said, looking at the many lights flickering lightly in the void, he stretched out his sleeves and swept them all away.
Since Yue Mingkong couldn’t refine the key yet, he could only wait until he had time later.
“Changge, do you think that the secret treasure of the Immortal Palace is real or fake? Why did the Immortal Palace that once ruled Heavens collapse and even the Immortal Master of the Immortal Palace was buried in the long river of time? ” Yue Mingkong frowned slightly, and couldn’t help but ask.
In fact, in terms of origin, the Peerless Immortal Dynasty’s lineage had a lot to do with the former Immortal Palace. When she was a child, she read the ancient scrolls and learned a few words about the fall of the Master of Immortal Palace.
At that time, she was extremely shocked. She never thought that the Master of the Immortal Palace, who once ruled the heavens, was not near the end of his life. Instead, he suffered an unimaginable trauma and was finally buried in the long river of time in the coffin of the Nine Heavens.
The palace where the Master of the Immortal Palace was buried at that time was actually in the deepest part of the ancestral land of the Peerless Immortal Dynasty. That palace was extremely mysterious, and she couldn’t see it on normal days. Even the Emperor of the Peerless Immortal Dynasty was not eligible to enter.
It was said that the palace was connected to a mysterious river, and people could be sent to the deepest part of the universe along that river.
“Maybe the Immortal Palace had encountered some great enemy, isn’t this a long-standing guess?” Gu Changge smiled and said.
He actually knew quite a lot about the Forbidden Era, after all, he was the Demon Lord. It was just he didn’t know why the Demon Lord would cut across that era and destroy the world.
So far, he didn’t have the slightest memory, and he didn’t know why. Of course, in Gu Changge’s view, it was just that the time hadn’t come yet.
“Even the Master of Immortal Palace met an unimaginable foe? There are really too many things in this world that I have never understood.” Yue Mingkong’s eyes were a little dazed, thinking of those scenes from a while ago.
If this was the case, was there really an invisible existence in this world that was manipulating everything, including her rebirth?
Otherwise, how to explain the Great Dream Returning to Immortal Technique that suddenly appeared in her mind during this period of time?
“Instead of thinking about these things now, you might as well think about how we will hold our wedding in half a year.” Gu Changge smiled, took her jade hand, and squeezed it gently to bring her back to her senses.
Yue Mingkong glanced at him slightly, but the corners of her mouth still curled up involuntarily.
Half a year, she was always looking forward to it. After leaving the imperial capital, Gu Changge took Alpha, tore apart the universe, and went directly to the Heavenly Domain where the Human Ancestor Hall was located.
Whether it was the manifestation of holiness in the Dark Heaven, or to see Jiang Chuchu, he would inevitably go back to the Human Ancestor Hall. The news of his and Yue Mingkong’s wedding had now spread throughout the Upper Realms, and Jiang Chuchu, who was cultivating in the Human Ancestor Hall, must have known about it too.
In terms of her personality, if Gu Changge didn’t confess, maybe she would hate him because of love. Different from Yue Mingkong’s dare to love and hate, Jiang Chuchu often hid her thoughts in her heart and did not reveal them to the outside.
So sometimes, she would do impulsive things regardless of the consequences.
In addition, the Golden Cauldron of Luck that was placed in the Human Ancestor Hall should have gathered and absorbed all of the Luck by now, and Gu Changge planned to carry out the second manifestation of the Dark Heaven.
During this period of time, he had been able to perceive that there were strands of thought power gathering in the world, arriving from the cultivators who heard the sacrificial oration some time ago.
Although these thoughts were still very weak, not enough to reach the Dark Heaven hidden in the Inner Universe, let alone a ray of the true soul entering it. But in Gu Changge’s view, these powers of thought represented great potential in the future, and they were all his devout disciples in the future.
Time flew, half a month later, in the Human Ancestor Hall in the center of Heavenly Domain. Dressed in white, with blue hair like a waterfall, Jiang Chuchu looked cold and calm, but looked a little thin and haggard, sitting cross-legged in the palace.
A hazy figure of a female Immortal appeared around her, filled with a terrifying aura.
In the palace, strands of silver power of faith gathered from all over the Upper Realm, and incomparably vast, turned into silver strands, floating up and down here. During this period of time, the scourge of the Absolute Heavenly Extinction subsided in many places, making the momentum of Human Ancestor Hall even higher.
“Puff…” But at this moment, Jiang Chuchu, who was sitting cross-legged with her eyes closed, suddenly let out a m.u.f.fled groan, her face suddenly turned pale, and the bright red blood stained the white clothes, making her look extremely glaring.
She slowly opened her eyes, the originally extremely clear pupils were now a little tired and blood-colored.
“Have I fallen into a heart demon again?” Jiang Chuchu whispered, her eyebrows frowning slightly as if she was asking herself.
But soon, she took out a clean handkerchief and wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth for herself, looking extremely skilled and natural.
During this period of time, she had always had difficulty settling down, and even after she managed to do so, she would be disturbed by various distracting thoughts that appeared in her mind.
In her previous years of cultivation, she couldn’t imagine it at all. She had the Seven Orifices and an Exquisite Immortal heart, and she had the talent to break through all the falsehoods in the world. The so-called heart demons and karma did not exist at all in her eyes.
But in the past few days, she had frequently gone mad, and her heart was so chaotic that it was difficult to calm down. Jiang Chuchu even felt that her heart was broken, it was no longer perfect, and there were many cracks in it.
“In half a year, he will marry his fiancée. But he promised that he will marry me…” Thinking of this, Jiang Chuchu’s eyes suddenly became a little dazed, and the light in her eyes was very dim.
She clutched her heart, feeling a throbbing pain inside.
