Chapter 880 - 747: Top Ten Seals, Sleeping World (Part 2)
Chapter 880: Chapter 747: Top Ten Seals, Sleeping World (Part 2)
From Elder Liu’s description, Chu Mu found out that within the Immortal City, which in itself was an independent space, there was a more special independent world. This world sealed the super-disasters which had been ranked in the top ten in terms of strength for thousands of years!
White Language Demon Emperor Bai Yu had caused the strong ones from the three major powers fall, which definitely placed him within the top ten in thousands of years of history. Also, since he was forced to sleep for less than twenty years, the possibility of reviving him was extremely high.
The Sleeping World was a fully sealed space. A long time ago, a very powerful White Nightmare Demon guarded this place and forbade any creature from entering or leaving the Sleeping World.
However, after the split between the Nightmare Demon Palace and Soul Hall, there had been no creature guarding the Eighth Town Demon Monument, and to avoid any accidents, Soul Hall fortunately shut down the whole Sleeping World, including the channel of the Eighth Town Demon Monument. After all, the exit of a disaster from the Sleeping World would spell doom for the world!
Soul Hall had a method to close and open the gateway to the Sleeping World through the Eighth Demon Suppression Tablet. The only time it has been opened over several hundred years was when White Language, the Demon Emperor, appeared, leading him into the Sleeping World.
The half-demon had abnormal abilities and true strength beyond that of the emperor-tier creatures. The Immortal City, an independent space, was easily accessed by Bai Yu, the Demon Emperor. The half-demon, being confident in his strength, didn’t fear even the Sleeping World.
...
However, the Sleeping World was not a common independent space, but a true forbidden land, where the power of seals had accumulated over thousands of years. White Language, the Demon Emperor, was sealed in the Sleeping World due to negligence.
In order to prevent the break of the seal by special methods, major powers decided to make the Sleeping World completely independent!
The space of the Sleeping World was extremely sturdy, that even a half-demon of abnormal power beyond the emperor tier could not tear it open.
However, in this world, nothing is absolute. With numerous creatures of various races and skills, and mutants talent among them, it would be impossible to say there is no creature in this world that couldn’t open a space channel through the completely sealed Sleeping World.
The fact that someone found a way to enter the Sleeping World made Elder Liu completely desperate!!
The only hope for Elder Liu was the sturdiness of the Sleeping World. Now, an unknown hole has been struck in this Sleeping World, which felt like falling into an Ice Cave for Elder Liu.
“Could it be the Ice Crystal Curse Marked Fox Demon?” Chu Mu used his soul sense to investigate, indeed a fissure has appeared where the Demon Suppression Tablet was located.
“Young Master, the Ice Crystal Curse Marked Fox Demon probably doesn’t have such great power. I suspect it was torn by the Defecting Girl,” Fox Elder said.
“Grandfather, no matter what, let’s go in and have a look. Maybe we will make it in time,” said Chu Mu.
When Elder Liu was telling Chu Mu about those old stories, he was commanding his Soul Pet to disperse the evil aura blocked in the space fissure. He couldn’t even enter without dispersing this evil aura.
“Chu Mu, you better not follow,” Elder Liu entered the space fissure after the Misty Immortal Bird had purified all the evil aura.
Chu Mu had reached here, so naturally, he wouldn’t leave. As soon as Elder Liu and the Misty Immortal Bird entered the space fissure, Chu Mu also followed. The Wanzhao Beast, being huge, released holy light, and its body shrank to the size of a puppy and jumped onto the Misty Immortal Bird.
While flying into the spatial crevice, Chu Mu was surrounded by chaos.
Chaos refers to nothingness, opposite to the space where creatures live. Only divine power or some kind of special power can tear through the nothingness, connecting two separate spaces.
Moreover, even if chaos is torn apart, it will self-heal. Only some special ancient gates, like the Netherworld Gate or Holy Territory Gate, could possibly establish a permanent passage between two spaces.
Chu Mu passed through the torn chaos and gradually felt the presence of space. But the chilling sensation hitting his face made Chu Mu shiver!
Finally, a white light flashed in the chaotic scene, feeling like he had passed through a rocky gap and seen a whole new world!
An endless white!!!!
What came into Chu Mu’s view was a stunning snow-white world!!
All was silent, the sky was sealed, and the ground was frozen. Either the gigantic and oppressive Mysterious Charm Ice Peak in front of him, or the indefinite frozen horizon, made Chu Mu feel an unprecedented shock along with a chill to his soul!
This world was completely different from an ordinary polar-ice land. Its tranquillity seemed to make breathing jarring!
Even in this place, Chu Mu had an illusion, as if time stood still!!
The Sleeping World did not mean every creature that entered here would fall asleep but that this independent space had always been sleeping. How many thousands, or tens of thousands of years, it had been sleeping was unknown.
Perhaps, it had been there since time immemorial…
…
“Liu Xinji, long time no see!”
Suddenly, a sharp and sneering voice broke the silence of this world, which immediately snapped Chu Mu out of his obsession with this quiet and static world.
A thousand meters away from Chu Mu, at the foot of the Mysterious Charm Ice Peak, stood an old man with silver hair!
This elder stood completely still, to the point of nearly blending into the dormant world around him. Indeed, Chu Mu had not noticed his presence upon entering this place; if he had not spoken, Chu Mu would have never realized there was another living being here!
“Ju Que!!” Elder Liu looked at the elder with silver hair, eyebrows, and beard. His shock at this sight was far greater than his shock at entering this slumbering world!!
Seeing Elder Liu react in such a way, Chu Mu was taken aback. According to his knowledge, Elder Liu’s strength should be on par with Liu Binglan’s. Yet, upon seeing this elder, a look of fear and disbelief appeared on his face. Could it be that the unremarkable elder was even stronger than Elder Liu!
“Young Master, this… this is… too dreadful. Even Ju Que of the Eight Desolates has made an appearance!!” The Fox Elder exclaimed!
“Eight Desolates? Could it be the Soul Alliance Eight Desolates that surpass the Sixteen Extremes?” Chu Mu asked in shock.
“Indeed! This old fellow is the chief of the Eight Desolates!!”
“He is known as ‘Ju Que of the Eight Desolates’. He’s a lot stronger than the ‘Shadow Extreme’ outside – no one in the entire Soul Hall could match him, apart from the Nether Venerate and the Grand Elder. Despite him appearing as an elderly man in his sixties or seventies, he’s actually over a hundred years old!!” The Fox Elder’s voice was strained, almost choking in his rush to impart this information!
Chu Mu was truly stunned this time! If the Sixteen Extremes could contend with the Elders, then the Eight Desolates would be considered on par with the Venerates. Moreover, this doddering old man happened to be the chief of the Eight Desolates. Emperor Si Ye and other major figures were probably beneath his notice!
The proverb “extremity breeds counteraction” applied as Elder Liu, faced with Ju Que’s presence, let out a bleak chuckle. His laughter filled Chu Mu with sorrow – it was the laughter of true despair!
“I never wanted to believe that you all were trying to eradicate us… I didn’t expect… you all… really want our ancient powers to disappear from this world!!!” As Elder Liu laughed despairingly, Chu Mu saw drops of old tears slide from the corners of his eyes and freeze into ice upon landing on the ground.
How profound was his sorrow that even such a towering, eminent Peak Soul Emperor could be reduced to tears?
By now, Chu Mu had no idea how many ancient events or power struggles were connected to this unfolding conspiracy…
“Liu Xinji, the times have changed. Whether it’s you, me, or Soul Hall, we should all withdraw from this stage…” the old man, Ju Que, spoke with calm restraint.
“Young Master, a century ago, he was a Palace Master of Soul Hall. Later, he left Soul Hall and joined the Soul Alliance, back when the Soul Alliance was not nearly as formidable as it is today… a century is length enough for great changes to transpire. The current strength of the Soul Alliance may indeed be enough to annihilate the three major powers!”
The Fox Elder sighed in resignation as he spoke:
“Young Master, it seems the Soul Alliance is indeed targeting the three major powers this time. They plan to exploit the chaos in Immortal City and awaken the White Language Demon Emperor, to destroy the foundations of the Soul Hall, Soul Pet Palace, and Nightmare Demon Palace. They even intend to leave them no escape.”
“The mastermind behind this decade-long plot is indeed the defecting girl with whom you have a soul pact, but she is backed by the Soul Alliance!!!”
The Fox Elder’s words left Chu Mu speechless for quite some time!
If the three major powers ceased to exist, would this world have any place for Chu Mu?
Soul Alliance’s ambition!
The Soul Alliance already occupies the position of highest authority and now, they intend to completely uproot the three major powers!
…
…
“Chu Mu, leave. Go to a place the Soul Alliance can never locate…” In the quiet world, the desolate voice of Elder Liu slowly echoed.
Chu Mu stood motionless there, looking at Elder Liu, who appeared so desolate standing on the ice-covered ground; his feelings were incredibly complex…
Elder Liu’s words were loaded with significance, not only indicating that including Soul Hall, the three major powers might cease to exist imminently, but also expressing the hope placed on Chu Mu!
Although only a few short years had passed since acknowledging Elder Liu and Liu Binglan, Chu Mu found himself unable to take a step forward.
As soon as he turned around, Chu Mu might never see Elder Liu and Liu Binglan again…
