Sacred Body of the Ancients from the Beginning

Chapter 845: Chapter 843: Breach at the Border, A Lotus of Eternity, the Cyan Emperor Who Became the Transformation Realm

Many times, imagination is pale and powerless.

Even though these Celestial Prides had already heard countless times how vast the Border Region was.

But when they truly came here in person.

That shock rising from the depths of their hearts still left them frozen on the spot, unable to recover for a long while.

The Border Region, ancient and towering, seemed as if it had been forged by Ancient Deities.

Countless predecessors had shed blood here; mottled, darkened bloodstains still dyed its surface.

All kinds of terrifying runes and rules were interwoven upon it, flickering with dazzling radiance.

At this moment, all the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm Celestial Prides who had come to the Border Region for the first time fell silent.

They stood where they were, expressions solemn and grave.

Jun Xiaoyao also felt a stir in his heart.

He was not someone whose emotions were easily roused, yet even he could not help but feel a sigh rise within.

”So this is the Border Region Father has been guarding all this time?”

Jun Xiaoyao murmured in the depths of his heart.

He had said before that he did not wish to be a hero, nor a savior.

But when he personally saw the Border Region Jun Wuhui guarded, saw the blood that had accumulated on that boundless wall.

He still raised his hand and bowed to the Border Region.

The Celestial Prides present, seeing this, also followed Jun Xiaoyao and bowed toward the blood-stained Border Region.

Even the hostile Ancient Emperors’ Sons and the others, in such a situation, cupped their hands in salute.

Seeing Jun Xiaoyao take the lead in paying respects, Master Scar’s aged eyes filled with deep gratification.

”Benefactor, your descendant bears the same pure and loyal heart as you.” Master Scar sighed inwardly.

And those garrison troops, as well as the Great Knights, seeing Jun Xiaoyao’s conduct, all felt their goodwill toward him soar.

”As expected of Lord Wuhui’s descendant, truly pure-hearted.”

”Indeed, in the future he may well become a second White-clothed Divine King, slaughtering the Exotic Realm until they tremble at the mere sound of his name!”

Jun Xiaoyao did not realize that this momentary act born of emotion had made these Border Region warriors grow fond of him.

”Alright, everyone, come with me.”

Master Scar led the crowd forward along the Border Region.

At a single glance, the Border Region’s end could not be seen.

It was called a city pass, but in truth it was more vast even than a section of the World Wall.

Every so often, the crowd could sense some gloomy yet powerful Divine Thoughts sweeping across the Void, probing in all directions.

”A Quasi-Emperor!”

Many were startled; this was definitely a Quasi-Emperor Level powerhouse patrolling through Divine Thought.

But this was understandable; after all, this was the front line of the Border Region, and having Quasi-Emperors sitting in town was only normal.

After a while, Master Scar came to a halt.

”We’ve arrived—your Ultimate Trial Land, the Divine Ruins World.”

The crowd looked past Master Scar, and for a moment all held their breath.

Everyone was shaken by the scene before their eyes.

Even Jun Xiaoyao, who remained unruffled no matter what he encountered, had a trace of astonishment flash in his gaze.

Because ahead, that vast and boundless Border Region, which had stood since time immemorial, had actually split open, a section broken off.

This left many Celestial Prides breathless, their scalps prickling.

The immense, ancient Border Region was incomparably solid, covered in all kinds of rules.

In theory, it should stand for eternity, never to fall.

Yet now, it had cracked open in one place, forming a breach.

The missing section of that gap was as wide as an entire Ancient Star Realm.

But what shocked the crowd was not merely the breach in the Border Region.

Even more so, it was that at this breach, there was a Cyan Lotus.

A Cyan Lotus so vast and boundless it was nearly on par with a Star Domain.

This colossal Cyan Lotus bloomed between heaven and earth, wisps of Chaos Qi cascading down from its leaves.

It was simply like a waterfall of galaxies, pouring straight down from the heights.

One after another, enormous stars were scattered around the lotus leaves like grains of sand.

The Celestial Prides present were almost all disciples of Immortal Influences; they had witnessed countless grand scenes.

Yet the sight before them still shook them to the core.

They were like bumpkins newly entering the city, utterly stunned.

”No wonder...”

Jun Xiaoyao suddenly recalled what that Ancient Road Law Enforcer had once said on the Emperor Burial Star.

The Ultimate Trial Land was related to a Mythical Emperor. Could it be...

While Jun Xiaoyao pondered, Master Scar spoke: ”Throughout history, the Exotic Realm has invaded our Nine Heavens Immortal Realm more than once.”

”In one of the most severe invasions, the Exotic Realm produced more than one ’Catastrophe Level’ Immortal, bringing a colossal calamity down upon our Immortal Realm.”

”The Border Region itself was even shattered, leaving behind a massive breach.”

Master Scar’s heavy words spread in all directions.

All the Celestial Prides fell silent upon hearing this.

Jun Xiaoyao’s gaze flickered darkly.

The Exotic Realm’s pinnacle Emperor Level powerhouses were called Immortal Kings.

What terrifying existence, then, was a ”Catastrophe Level” Immortal?

”Back then, when the Border Region was broken and the breach appeared, the situation was on the brink of collapse. If the Exotic Realm had been allowed a full-scale invasion, then the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm would have been utterly unable to recover.”

”In the end, it was a Mythical Emperor who took action, using his own body to plug the breach in the Border Region, and finally transforming into a Cyan Lotus.”

”That was the Cyan Emperor!”

Master Scar’s words were like thunder, resounding in everyone’s ears.

”So it really is that ’single lotus beneath the endless azure sky’...” Jun Xiaoyao came to a realization.

A Mythical Emperor was an Emperor who had become a myth.

The Allah worshiped by the Gulan Holy Sect, the One-Armed Nether King worshiped by the Netherworld King Lineage.

And the Shijia Ancient Emperor worshiped by the Western Heaven Sect—these were all Emperors who had already become myth.

Of course, as for whether the Jun Family had any Mythical Emperor, Jun Xiaoyao did not know.

The Jun Family had never publicized such a thing.

”The Cyan Emperor was a Cyan Lotus born from Chaos itself. When the Border Region faced disaster, Lord Cyan Emperor used his body to plug the breach and became a world unto himself.”

”What you now see as that colossal Cyan Lotus—within it lies the Divine Ruins World, which is also the Cyan Emperor’s Inner Cosmos.”

Master Scar’s words made Jun Xiaoyao’s eyes flash with surprise.

Jun Xiaoyao himself possessed an Inner Cosmos, currently with a diameter of two light-years.

Yet now, just that colossal Cyan Lotus alone exceeded two light-years.

Let alone once one entered it; the scope inside would certainly be even more vast.

Jun Xiaoyao’s heart stirred.

If he were to enter the Divine Ruins World, he would be able to comprehend the Cyan Emperor’s rules and creation Technique, which would greatly aid the evolution of his own Inner Cosmos.

At this moment, Master Scar’s expression grew a shade more serious. He cleared his throat and said:

”As is widely known, this Ultimate Trial will be different from those of the past.”

”Because this time, the Exotic Realm has discovered a fatal flaw within the Divine Ruins World, one that may well cause the Divine Ruins World to collapse and lead to the reappearance of the breach.”

Master Scar’s words were like a stone thrown into the sea, stirring up a thousand layers of waves and instantly setting off a boundless uproar here!

”What, the Divine Ruins World manifested from the Cyan Emperor is about to collapse?”

”If that happens, the breach will reappear—won’t the Exotic Realm’s armies then advance unhindered?”

The place boiled over like a cauldron, an uproar breaking out!

The Cyan Emperor had turned his body into a world, barely managing to plug the breach in the Border Region.

If it were to collapse now, the consequences would be unimaginable!

All could see that the breach was as vast as an Ancient Star Realm; even if a new defensive line were erected, it would be hard to hold.

Otherwise, they would have to sacrifice yet another Mythical Emperor to plug the breach.

But the problem was: how could there be another?

In this era, even Great Emperors were rarely seen and seldom appeared in the world, let alone Emperors who had already become myths.

What is called a myth?

That which is illusory and untouchable—that is a myth.

Even if we take a step back and suppose there is a Mythical Emperor, who would be willing to sacrifice their own Dao Fruit?

Not everyone could be as selfless as the Cyan Emperor.

After all, powerhouses of that Level had already grown unfathomable.

Even if the Immortal Realm were to collapse, they could still endure in the world, becoming a Restricted Area unto themselves.

Now, all the Celestial Prides wore extremely grave expressions.

This trial was indeed far more brutal than any before it.

”May I ask, senior, is there any way to stop this?” one Celestial Pride cupped his fists and asked.

”Of course there is a way. Otherwise I wouldn’t have told you so much.” Master Scar spoke, but his gaze fell upon Jun Xiaoyao.

Clearly, he held Jun Xiaoyao in high regard and placed his hopes upon him.

After all, Jun Xiaoyao’s true strength far surpassed his Realm.

Within the Divine Ruins World, he would have an immense role to play.
