Perhaps it was because they hadn't seen each other for so long, but Shen Jing chatted with You You for a full two hours that day, and at least 90% of the time was about Xiao Ying. She talked about everything from when Shen Ying was born until now, when she is four and a half years old, going on and on for over a hundred minutes, until Xiao Ying herself fell asleep on her lap before she finally stopped showing off her little sister.
He concluded by saying, "Xiao You, awakening your power is just the beginning. The real challenge is what comes next. The situation on your end is far too complicated, but it's your world, and I can't interfere. Besides, I need to focus on Xiao Ying's training, so I don't have much time. Whether you can hold out or not depends on you."
After saying that, he hung up the call and reclaimed the system.
Youyou has fully recovered. Since awakening her power, she has not only regained her previous memories, but also feels that everything in this world has suddenly established some indescribable connection with her, as if she can control all the rules of things.
She went to Tian Sheng Mountain immediately to check. Yuan Qi had retrieved the crystal containing ninety percent of his power from the seal in order to go to the Demon Realm to find her, so the seal on Tian Sheng Mountain had naturally been opened.
However, the golden light left behind when Youyou awakened still remained there. Although the seal had been broken, the golden light still firmly blocked the exit of the Demon Realm. Unless she approved it, and it wasn't explicitly stated that it was a demon, no living being in the Six Realms could approach it, which was equivalent to a new seal.
So even though she was unconscious for several days, the Three Realms remained calm. Water Smoke Girl and the others were also unharmed; in fact, because they were so close to her power that day, their cultivation levels actually increased.
With Youyou's current power, she could have easily sent them all to ascension with just a thought. But she didn't do that; after all, cultivation was something they had to experience for themselves.
On the surface, the Six Realms appear peaceful and tranquil. Even Yuan Qi and Feng Rong, who dislike each other, have stopped fighting after she woke up. However, You You knows that this peace is only on the surface.
"Xiao You, what's wrong?" Yuan Qi couldn't help but ask. You You had been in this anxious state for the past few days, ever since she woke up, or rather, ever since she met that strange friend.
Not only did they go to Tian Sheng Mountain immediately, but they also traveled all the way to the borders of the Demon Realm, the Immortal Realm, and the God Realm, seeing almost all six realms.
Yuan Qi, always perceptive, naturally noticed something. "But is there a problem with the Six Realms?"
"Didn't you sense it?" Youyou was taken aback and turned around to look at the people behind her in surprise.
"What?" Not only Yuan Qi, but also Feng Rong and Hades, who had been following along, were stunned and looked completely bewildered.
"It's broken here." Youyou pointed to the location of the divine realm gate ahead. They had been following her around for the past few days, and she thought they knew. "It's right there, can't you sense it?"
What's disconnected?
The three of them looked at each other for a while, clearly not understanding what she meant.
You frowned, unsure how to explain. After a moment's thought, she looked at Hades and said, "Ning Hui, open your door."
"My home?" Hades was taken aback, then realized she meant the Underworld. He quickly nodded and said, "Oh, okay, Lord of the Underworld." He then raised his hand and opened the Gates of the Underworld.
"I don't know how to explain it either. Let's go, I'll take you to see it!" Youyou went in first, and the other three followed without hesitation.
In the blink of an eye, the scene transformed completely. One moment they were in the misty, ethereal realm of the gods, the next they were in the eerie, gloomy underworld. The air was thick with yin energy, but unlike the previous chilling cold, this yin energy felt strangely…warm?
Youyou didn't feel the chill at all; in fact, the yin energy seemed to cling to her body, as if welcoming or celebrating something, and it inexplicably carried a hint of ingratiation.
She turned her head and immediately saw the tall palace in front of her, with the three large characters "Palace of the Underworld" hanging above the gate. However, compared to the two magnificent palaces in the Demon Realm and the God Realm, this Palace of the Underworld seemed somewhat... inferior!
The temple doors were wide open, and one door was broken, leaning precariously to one side. The entire temple was dilapidated; either the east wall had collapsed or the west beam had fallen. There was no trace of magic, only an overwhelming sense of gloom. If it weren't for its large size, she would have thought she had stumbled upon some ruined temple or dangerous building.
Youyou's lips twitched, and she turned around to look at Hades, who was stunned. "How long has it been since you came to work?" Even the office is in such a dilapidated state.
"Ah...this...this...this..." Hades was covered in cold sweat. Just now, the Lord of the Realm said he was going to his house, and he reflexively opened the exit in Hades Palace. He didn't expect that Hades Palace would be so deserted after he hadn't been back for so long. He felt even more guilty. What does it feel like to be caught skipping work by the boss?
"Um... cough! Lord of the Realm, I'll clean up right away." As he spoke, he raised his hand to form a hand seal.
"Alright, alright!" Youyou stopped him with a black line on her face. "I didn't want to go in. Which direction is the River Styx in?" In this situation, we'd just get a mouthful of dust if we went in.
"Oh, oh, oh." Hades then guiltily withdrew his hand and pointed to the right, saying, "It's over there."
She turned and headed in that direction, saying, "Let's go."
Sure enough, in no time, she saw a wide river that seemed to stretch to the horizon. Unlike the one she had seen when she went to the Demon Realm last time, the river now appeared as a dazzling gold in her eyes, as if it were filled with a river of stars.
You glanced at it and walked directly towards Hanoi, instantly disappearing into the starry river.
"Lord of the Realm..." The three of them were stunned for a moment. Seeing that she did not stop, they had no choice but to follow.
Almost the instant they stepped into the river, a flash of golden light appeared before their eyes, and the next moment, darkness enveloped them as they suddenly found themselves in a night sky. There was no solid ground beneath their feet, yet they could walk on air. All around was pitch black, but above them stretched a sky full of stars. A golden river, like a giant tree, meandered through the starry sky, its countless intricate branches connecting to all the stars.
“Where is this…” Yuan Qi and the Demon God were both stunned, looking up at the sky in shock.
Hades recognized it instantly, “We entered the River Styx, then… this is the source of the River of Oblivion.” This is the origin and origin of all living beings and all things.
"Hmm." You nodded, pointing to the sky. "The sky you see here is the world we live in. Now... do you see anything wrong?"
The three were startled, and then looked up at the sky carefully. Sure enough, they immediately noticed the problem: "That's... a crack?"
Although the stars in the sky are countless, they can be divided into six major sections, which should be the locations of the six realms. At the bottom is the Underworld, in the middle with the most stars is the Human Realm, to the left is the Demon Realm, slightly to the upper right is the Immortal Realm, and at the very top are the Demon Realm and the God Realm.
Originally, the boundaries were not very clear, but inexplicably, thin, irregular lines appeared between the two boundaries, as if they were being torn apart by something. They were not very clear, but they all appeared at the intersection of the two boundaries.
