The old man was the Sect Master of the Imperial Sect, Huang Liang. He looked just like the person that Lu Ye had seen. After all, that was Huang Liang’s appearance during this period, so that wouldn’t change.

However, in the Valley of Medicine, the Divine Healer didn’t look like Hua Ci. She was a demure middle-aged woman with an average appearance.

The Sixth Young Master of Tyrant Blade Manor, who had taken his Sister here to seek medical treatment, certainly didn’t look like Lu Ye. He seemed to be a strong-willed young man with the fire of resentment burning behind his gaze.

On the other hand, Ye Liuli’s illness was different from what Lu Ye knew. She was born with a congenital disease, so she had been sickly since young. There was no birthmark on her back that looked identical to the Heavenly Gully.

That was the real Soaring Dragon Boundary. It was during this period that the calamity fell upon the world.

Fa Hua and Liu Tianyi were killed beneath the Heavenly Gully, thus returning the World’s Luck. Before their death, they managed to send Huang Liang out of danger, allowing him to survive.

In Lu Ye’s experience, he had just built a Grand Ward in the Valley of Medicine. Huang Liang happened to arrive, and Lu Ye saved his life.

Nonetheless, the Elders of the Heavenly Gully Cult gathered outside the Valley of Medicine. Zhuang Bufan activated the Dragon Throne in his attempt to save everyone else in the last moments of his life, after which Lu Ye acquired the treasure.

That was what he had experienced in the snapshot of that period. In the real Soaring Dragon Boundary, the events were not so different from his experiences.

The only difference was that the real Ye Six knew nothing about the Way of Wards, so naturally there wasn’t any powerful Grand Ward in the Valley of Medicine.

When Huang Liang arrived, it was Zhuang Bufan who stepped forward and killed the enemies. Following that, Ye Six was blessed with the World’s Luck and gained the Dragon Throne’s acknowledgement.

After that, the events deviated from Lu Ye’s experiences. With the help of Blood River Grand Ward built by the Heavenly Gully Cult, the Blood Race members arrived at the Soaring Dragon Boundary.

The cultivators in this world exerted themselves to fend off the enemies, but their efforts were futile.

At the most critical moment, Ye Six activated the Dragon Throne and called upon the Dragon Spine Saber, which had been hidden in the tower in Vajra Temple. Beneath the Heavenly Gully, he initiated a slaughter and destroyed many Blood Race members, finally turning the tide.

After that battle, Ye Six lost his life as his Source was depleted.

Then, the cultivators from both Boundaries got into a war that lasted for several years.

Under normal circumstances, the cultivators from Soaring Dragon Boundary were no match for the foreign invaders, but in every major battle, there would be someone using the Dragon Throne.

The subsequent owners of the Dragon Throne burned their lives away to delay the fate of Soaring Dragon Boundary getting destroyed.

Nevertheless, they were faced with those of Blood Boundary, after all. Blood Race members had Secret Techniques that could corrode the spirituality of Spirit Artifacts.

After several rounds of battles, the spirituality of the Dragon Throne gradually weakened due to corrosion.

Until the last battle, a powerful cultivator from Blood Boundary brought a treasure with him. Not only did he go to Hell along with the owner of the Dragon Throne, but he also severely damaged the latter’s treasure.

Following that battle, the cultivators of Soaring Dragon Boundary were powerless to counterattack again. Blood Race members invaded and plunged everything into turmoil.

Several years later, Soaring Dragon Boundary had no more vitality left, and its heritage was mostly gone. All the living Humans were taken away by Blood Race members, becoming their blood sacrifice. Blood Boundary also departed, leaving behind a barren land.

The events in Soaring Dragon Boundary during this period were tragic.

Faced with the apocalypse, there was no saviour. What awaited everyone were the tough resistance and the suffering from heading towards destruction.

Lu Ye had only experienced another possibility of the snapshot of that period. It wasn’t real, after all.

At this moment, what came into his sight was a desolate world that was void of any vitality. The entire world was silent with no living creatures or World Spiritual Qi. It was as if the world was dead. That was the current situation of Soaring Dragon Boundary.

Lu Ye came to his senses and realised he didn’t stand on the 300-metre-tall Sky Mending Platform. Instead, he stood on a barren peak without any greenery. Rocks and sand were all he could see.

It was unimaginable how heavily impacted he was after witnessing an apocalypse.

At the end of the day, he was only a Cloud River Realm Master. He had never expected to go through such a surreal experience.

His experience in Myriad Beast Domain was nothing similar to that in Soaring Dragon Boundary. At that time, he had only worked with the cultivators of the Grand Sky Coalition to settle the crisis in the Domain.

As he thought about it now, the real Myriad Beast Domain was probably in ruins as well.

A sense of sorrow gripped him, but it also allowed him to gain some new insights. Cultivators were as insignificant as dust when compared with the world. Even a world could be destroyed, let alone the cultivators living in it.

He fished out the Dragon Throne from his Storage Sphere and realised that the treasure, which still looked fine a while back, was now badly damaged. It apparently couldn’t be used anymore.

The real Soaring Dragon Boundary had been destroyed, and it was the same case for the Dragon Throne.

Although he had acquired the Dragon Throne and activated its power in that snapshot of time, it was merely a reenactment by the Heavens using a mysterious power.

The real Dragon Throne was already damaged when the cultivators were going against the Blood Race members.

Even the red Dragon Spine Saber was no longer shiny. The blade was dark and chipped.

He still kept the Dragon Throne anyway. Although the treasure was damaged and unusable, it was a divine item, after all. If he came across a talented Golem Master in the future, he could ask the other party to help repair it.

A certain Divine Ocean Realm Master in Thousand Gear Pavilion would be interested in this treasure.

The Divine Healer, who looked like Hua Ci, still stood beside him with a calm expression.

“What’s with Liuli?” Lu Ye asked.

He had grasped the truth about Soaring Dragon Boundary and had some speculation about the woman’s identity, but he didn’t dare say or ask anything. Some things were better left untouched. Getting to the bottom of things might not bring him any benefits.

However, he wasn’t certain about Ye Liuli. She did exist during this period in Soaring Dragon Boundary, but after Ye Six was killed, she also passed away without anyone knowing it. In the end, it was the Divine Healer’s assistants who buried her in the valley.

It could be said that in the history of this world, Ye Liuli didn’t do anything significant that could change the course. On the other hand, Ye Six was blessed with the World’s Luck as he activated the Dragon Throne and helped the cultivators win the first battle against the Blood Race members at the very least.

“The truth about Ye Liuli…” The Divine Healer pondered for a moment. “It could be considered the last bit of Source in this world. It’s also a sense of obsession.”

“Does this world have a sense of obsession as well?” Lu Ye was shocked.

“Since the World’s Will was born, there’d naturally be a sense of obsession.”

Upon hearing that, Lu Ye said, “So, her obsession is that, if a saviour had existed in Soaring Dragon Boundary, there could’ve been a different outcome, which would spare everyone the fate of getting destroyed. Is that right?”

“Exactly.” The Divine Healer nodded.

“I see.”

Previously, Lu Ye had thought that the Teleportation Ward that led to Soaring Dragon Boundary was a test in the Way of Wards.

Only the person who managed to repair the Teleportation Ward had a right to come to this Hidden Realm. That was because only a person with a deep understanding of the Way of Wards could execute the plan of mending the sky.

Now, it seemed that this was indeed the case.

That was why the Teleportation Ward was located near Hundred Wards Tower. The people who would come to the Tower were all Ward Cultivators and only an experienced Ward Cultivator could take on such a task.

After repairing the Teleportation Ward, Lu Ye arrived at this Hidden Realm. Everything he did subsequently gained the acknowledgement of the World’s Will. That was the reason Ye Liuli transferred the last bit of World’s Source to him on Sungazing Peak.

Lu Ye didn’t disappoint her. All 64 altars were activated to utilise the World’s Power, which allowed them to get rid of Blood Boundary. The Ward that could mend the sky was formed, but unfortunately, he didn’t get to see the outcome.

That was because the World’s Will had found its answer, so the outcome was no longer important.

Nonetheless, everything was only a snapshot. Lu Ye didn’t exist in the real history of Soaring Dragon Boundary, so it couldn’t evade the fate of destruction.

That said, World’s Will’s obsession had been alleviated.

“This world is yours now.” The Divine Healer made a shocking announcement.

“Mine?” Lu Ye was stunned. When he obtained the World’s Source, he had a feeling that he was closely knitted with this world. However, he was still flabbergasted to hear that the world belonged to him now.

Also, what was the point of him getting a world that was void of any vitality?

“The last bit of the World’s Source is with you, so the world is naturally yours.” The Divine Healer smiled.

An idea formed in Lu Ye’s mind. “Can this world be revitalised?”

“I have no idea. It might be achievable. It depends on how hardworking you’ll be.”

Upon hearing that, Lu Ye realised he still had to increase his power. He was only a Cloud River Realm Master, after all. Even if there was a way to revive Soaring Dragon Boundary, someone like him didn’t have access to it.

“Alright. Farewell, then.” The moment the Divine Healer finished speaking, she dissipated and turned into dots of light. She left as abruptly as she had appeared.

Lu Ye quickly raised his hand. “How am I supposed to leave?”

Certainly, no one responded to Lu Ye, which infuriated him.

Suddenly, Yi Yi and Amber appeared before his eyes. Both of them appeared flustered. The moment Yi Yi caught sight of the man, she charged forward and grabbed his arms. It was as though she was worried she would lose him forever.

Just a while ago, Yi Yi and Amber were looking at the Sky Mending Platform when the view around them shifted all of a sudden. Then, they appeared on a barren mountain, and Lu Ye was nowhere in sight. What was even more unsettling was that they were unable to leave the mountain.

Just when they were anxious, they saw Lu Ye suddenly.

Amber climbed onto Lu Ye and pulled his collars apart with its paws before sneaking inside. Then, the tiger revealed its eyes and looked around vigilantly. The tiger had never experienced such a strange incident, so it was naturally terrified.
