Cosmic Ruins, Southern Abyss Realm.
This world had originally been located in the Ghost Gold Sheep starfield of the Southern Vermilion Bird Seven Mansions. Later, the corner of the starfield containing the Southern Abyss Realm and over a hundred other worlds had been refined by Venerable Hou with great divine abilities into a star chart. Nearly a hundred thousand years had passed since then.
Other than the first few thousand years after it had been refined into a star chart, when the Southern Abyss Realm experienced violent upheaval, it had always appeared "peaceful and tranquil"... Since the star chart had remained within the Xuanhuang Universe, the Southern Abyss Realm could be considered prosperous in the immortal path. There were countless cultivators, and quite a few cultivated the Dragon Transformation Curse, ultimately transforming into true dragons and "attaining the Dao to ascend"!

The hundreds of millions of cultivators within the realm suddenly discovered that the heavenly constellations had changed again. Then, these lofty "immortal masters" almost simultaneously lost all their immortal cultivation. Every immortal means—magic artifacts, talismans, formations, and the like—completely failed.
