Master Long spoke with such ease and grace, as if breaking through the void, as simple as eating and drinking.
Ye Qiu had many doubts about this statement.
Above the void, especially where it connects with the upper realm, the laws of the Dao permeate the air, surging and turbulent. It not only possesses unparalleled defensive power, but also extraordinary self-repair capabilities. If damaged, it can recover in the blink of an eye.
Even if one could break through the void, it might not be possible to enter the upper realm through the void rift.
Even if one could get in, there's no guarantee that the endless laws of nature wouldn't kill them in the cracks.
"Kid, I know what you're thinking. If I say it's possible, it's definitely possible. Come out, I'll show you what I'm capable of."
Elder Long got up and walked outside.
Curious, Ye Qiu followed Elder Long outside.
The old dragon looked up, staring at the boundless sky. After a moment of silence, he suddenly soared into the sky, transforming into a beam of light and disappearing into the depths of the sky in the blink of an eye.
boom.
Long Lao unleashed a punch from the depths of the sky, his magical power instantly piercing through the heavens and creating a crack in the sky.
The crack was large enough for a large vehicle to pass through, but it was not visible on the ground because it was too far away.
Only an extraordinary being like Ye Qiu could see what was happening deep within the heavens.
Ye Qiu's eyes widened. The moment the crack appeared, Ye Qiu vaguely saw a vast world, appearing and disappearing.
But the crack was fleeting, and there was no time to see more.
Elder Long descended from the sky and stood before Ye Qiu, smiling, "See? If I say it's possible, then it's definitely possible."
"Awesome."
Ye Qiu blurted it out.
At this moment, Ye Qiu couldn't find any other adjectives to describe the shock he felt.
"When do you plan to go to the Upper Realm? I'll take you there. Let's set a date," Elder Long said, looking at Ye Qiu.
"The day after tomorrow, I'll go to the Dragon Dynasty Imperial City tomorrow," Ye Qiu said.
"But you want to settle things with that brat Lin Xuanye?" Elder Long raised an eyebrow. "I don't think it's necessary. That little brat should have really matured this time. If he doesn't, I'm still here. I'll help you guard Ancestral Dragon City from now on."
"Aren't you leaving?" Ye Qiu asked in surprise.
"I'm not leaving," said Elder Long. "You chose this place to build Ancestral Dragon City; it's all destiny, just what I wanted."
Why?
Ye Qiu stared at Elder Long.
Elder Long smiled and said, "That underground palace is no ordinary place. It suppresses the Demon Empress and the five great demon saints. Do you know what other peculiar things about the underground palace besides that?"
"I don't know." Ye Qiu shook his head: "Master, how do you know so much?"
"Actually, I came to the Celestial Realm a long time ago."
Old Master Long's eyes were deep and profound.
Ye Qiu sensed that Elder Long had something to say, but dared not say it.
The more he acted this way, the more Ye Qiu wanted to know the truth.
“Master, now that I have entered the Divine Realm, once I reach the Upper Realm, my cultivation will surely advance by leaps and bounds in a short period of time. Tell me about some things, and perhaps I can help you deal with them,” Ye Qiu said earnestly.
Elder Long did not respond immediately. After thinking for a while, he said, "It doesn't really matter if I tell you now. You should know by now."
Once the Celestial Realm and our side are completely merged, the entire world will become a cage from which no one can escape. Therefore, if you wish to go to the Upper Realm, it is best to do so within the next few days; do not delay.
"What does 'cage' mean?" Ye Qiu asked hurriedly.
"This is a long story. In ancient times, there was no distinction between the upper and lower realms. However, later, two powerful clans did something that led to their rejection by the entire upper realm. Along with them, all the forces that were close to those two clans were separated and divided into what is now known as the lower realm."
Furthermore, the powerful beings of the upper realm used the laws of the Dao to construct a legal net, imprisoning the lower realm and preventing its beings from becoming gods.
In addition, they stipulated that for all eternity, people from the lower realms must never enter the upper realms again.
Of course, people from the lower realms also lack the ability to cross that legal net.
It wasn't until later, when problems arose in the lower realm, causing it to split in two and affecting the protective net above, that some people from the lower realm secretly crossed over to become gods.
Now that the two realms are about to merge again, and the restrictive legal network is nearing completion, going to the upper realm again will be as difficult as ascending to heaven.
"I understand." Ye Qiu asked curiously, "What did those two great clans you mentioned do in ancient times?"
"I don't know." Elder Long smiled bitterly. "After all, the era is too long ago, and we may not even know if the truth is as it is. But the restrictive net does exist. If you want to go to the Upper Realm, you have to hurry."
"good."
Ye Qiu took a deep breath.
He sensed there was a hidden story behind this, and that perhaps he could unravel the mystery after going to the upper realm.
"Alright, I won't waste your time anymore. Go and keep your little lovers company. Look at them, their eyes are practically worn out from looking at each other."
Old Long joked.
"Cough, I'm leaving."
Ye Qiu waved his hand and turned to walk towards a figure not far away.
That figure was the Imperial Tutor's Consort.
"Waiting for me?"
Ye Qiu asked with a smile.
"Hmm," the Imperial Tutor's Consort asked, "Are you going to the Upper Realm?"
"How did you know?" Ye Qiu asked in surprise.
"I heard that," the Imperial Tutor's wife said. "When do you plan to set off?"
"Probably the day after tomorrow, we can't delay any longer," Ye Qiu said.
"So soon?" The Imperial Tutor's wife bit her lip lightly. "I saw your daughter. She's so cute. If only I had a daughter that big."
"Oh dear, I don't understand. What does Sister Shifei mean?"
"Stop pretending to be stupid." The Imperial Tutor's wife raised her small fist and punched Ye Qiu's chest, whispering coquettishly, "You little rascal, don't play dumb, I want the child."
