"This...is closely related to me, but I can't say the specific reasons..."
The Five Elements Sect is currently unable to handle the threats posed by the Black and White Sect and the Flame Demon Sect, both level eight sects, on its own. Revealing the matter of the Great Evolution Immortal Sect would only cause unnecessary trouble for everyone.
Since that's the case, it's better not to say anything.
Seeing Ye Feng's resolute attitude, Zhou Yongcheng said with a serious expression,
"Even Mahayana cultivators know very little about this... I only know a little from the sect's records. But now you know that you cannot ascend to immortality if you undergo tribulation..."
As they were talking, Zhou Yongcheng suddenly activated all the protective formations in the secret chamber before slowly speaking.
"Actually, you just need to treat it as a law, that's all. Tribulation means you can't ascend, and you can't be reincarnated after death..."
Ye Feng:...
Why make it so serious? In the end, isn't saying anything the same as not saying anything at all?
If it truly is a law, how could the Great Evolution Immortal Sect possibly say that Yang Fan can solve it...? There must be a crux of the matter, and as long as it is resolved, one can ascend and be reincarnated.
Zhou Yongcheng knew that saying anything was pointless, but seeing Ye Feng's expression, he clearly wanted to get to the bottom of things, so he could only sigh.
"Thirty-five thousand years ago, there was no distinction between border regions and the central government. Until..."
Zhou Yongcheng skipped over the crucial parts.
"Only after losing contact with the sects in the south did everyone realize the gravity of the situation..."
As Zhou Yongcheng recounted the events, the tragic situation more than 30,000 years ago transformed into a vivid image in Ye Feng's mind.
Although he did not state the specific problem.
But Ye Feng could still imagine how magnificent it must have been.
Even with the combined might of the nine top sects and all the great immortals, the final outcome was still a dismal defeat.
The Great Immortal Venerable of that time was different from the one of now.
The current Celestial Venerables undergoing tribulations are merely prolonging their lives and extending their lifespan.
But back then, the reason why powerful immortals lingered in the mortal realm was to strengthen their foundation, hoping to reach a higher position after ascending to the immortal realm!
As a result, the entire army was wiped out!
Then, all the sects retreated north... During this period, a civil war lasting for a thousand years occurred.
Fighting for territory and seizing sacred land!
At that time, the "law preventing ascension" was not yet strict enough; powerful enough Immortal Venerables could still ascend to the Immortal Realm.
All the powerful immortals forcibly underwent tribulations and headed to the Immortal Realm.
Some succeeded, while others perished under the lightning.
Some, because of this law, were still left in the cultivation world.
Despair and chaos filled the world, and even the emergence of four alien races in the abandoned Southern Hemisphere went unnoticed.
Until Ling Yu, who held a high position in the Immortal Realm, forcibly threw a "heavenly ladder" down to the human world, the Immortal Palace!
The chaos gradually subsided and ended.
"When the powerful alien races entered the Lingyu Realm and discovered... they all hurriedly withdrew and then went to great lengths to close the spatial rift... However, the Heavenly Mansion Secret Realm is, after all, a treasure of the Immortal Realm, and they coveted it just as much, which is why the Realm Alliance was formed!"
I see....
Apart from the most crucial name, all other clues had been revealed to Ye Feng.
The ascended senior Ling Yu has been in the Immortal Realm for hundreds of thousands of years; it's unknown what realm he has reached now.
They even threw down a heavenly ladder and a celestial abode, such divine objects...
This also directly illustrates that even a powerful figure like Ling Yu cannot directly resolve the crisis in the cultivation world.
Another point is that since Ling Yu threw down the Immortal Abode, it means that there is a likely solution within the Immortal Abode.
Because they had indirectly prevented Yang Fan from entering the secret realm this time, the Great Evolution Immortal Sect was filled with resentment.
However, his astonishingly fast advancement also made him temporarily set aside his murderous intent...
Ye Feng originally thought that with the Beast Taming Immortal Ring in his hand, all the Great Immortal Venerables would put up with him. However, he never expected that he would accidentally absorb the Dao essence and advance during the deduction, which saved his life!
These powerful immortals, unable to ascend, are mostly driven by twisted motives.
The only one who truly cares is probably the youngest Immortal Venerable Ning Shuang...
If there is a solution within the Immortal Abode, how did Yang Fan obtain it?
Based on what Ye Feng saw and heard in the secret realm, the entire realm was nothing more than a treasure hunting game.
What kind of test... test?
Ye Feng's eyes lit up.
Does this test... include capturing exotic beasts?
If this is the test, then wouldn't I soon be able to obtain Yang Fan's opportunity again...?
The fact that a crisis could trap even a beast at the ninth level of tribulation demonstrates just how formidable it was.
And what a reward it would be to solve this problem...?
At this moment, Ye Feng cleared his mind, and his previously heavy mood instantly eased.
If capturing the strange beast is the test, we only need to wait a month or two to find out!
However, Ye Feng was still very curious.
"So what exactly is this crisis? Is it a natural disaster or a man-made one? Can't you even say?"
"no!"
Zhou Yongcheng's expression changed, and he said solemnly,
"If you want to, you can say it, and it's very likely that it will be sensed... when you undergo tribulation... In short, just don't ask!"
Even though Zhou Yongcheng only said a few words, a fine bead of sweat still appeared on his forehead.
Ye Feng didn't know if this was genuine fear or if he was truly being sensed by that thing...
But then he remembered a phrase from his past life, and murmured it aloud.
"When you gaze into the abyss... the abyss also..."
As soon as he said these words, Ye Feng suddenly felt a chill run through him, his thoughts became chaotic, and he felt a terrifying gaze about to fall upon him from an infinite distance.
Zhou Yongcheng suddenly slapped him on the back, shouting something.
Ye Feng seemed lost in thought, completely unable to react.
Just as that gaze was about to arrive, and their eyes met, the right divine eye automatically activated.
The sudden mental pressure caught Zhou Yongcheng off guard, causing him to stumble back three steps and sit on the ground.
Even without activating the divine armor, the same mental pressure can still be applied...
But this is the first time the Divine Eye has opened automatically!
The feeling of being wet, cold, and icy all over my body disappeared instantly.
Ye Feng's eyes returned to normal. He looked south for a long time before finally uttering a single word.
"Grass!"
Southern Hemisphere...South!
Isn't Tiannan very dangerous?
