The Ruins of Return are the tombs of the world.

It's also the name of a black hole in this world. Perhaps some great being witnessed a black hole devouring a planet and came to this understanding.

Who would have thought that someone would use a black hole as a weapon? The elder felt like he had made a fool of himself as soon as he finished shouting.

This shouldn't be some powerful being joking with Taiheng; rather, it's because Taiheng's lifespan has come to an end, which has led to his return to the Void!

The powerful figures exchanged bewildered glances, and one of them spoke up, "Our Taiheng lineage has only existed for three hundred thousand years, how could it have reached the end of its lifespan!"

"The immortal path has only been passed down for 300,000 years, but there were dragons 300,000 years ago!" someone else said.

"So, the dragons left not because they couldn't fight the Nightmare Tribulation, but because Taiheng's lifespan had come to an end?" Qu Heng asked in surprise.

"So the inability to use Space Divine Abilities before was a sign that Taiheng was about to die. It's a pity that we are all so slow to understand, and not a single one of us noticed it!"

"And the endless wars that have plagued Taiheng in recent years are perhaps due to unstable fortune."

This is the consequence of not developing science. When something inexplicable happens, we can only guess based on the records of our predecessors, and then draw completely opposite conclusions from a bunch of seemingly correct inferences.

"What's the point of talking about this now!" Zhao Wudi roared. "Taiheng is about to perish, we should be thinking of countermeasures right now, can't you see that the attraction is getting stronger and stronger?"

The gravity is indeed getting stronger. Before, it only attracted the mountain peaks and palaces, but now even the sect's protective formation is starting to tremble!

"The world is about to perish, what other options are there?" Xiao Lei said.

"Perhaps we can build a ship and take all of my Taiheng cultivators with us?" Meng Yu said.

She frequently uses her phone and is aware that spaceships exist.

"Where would we find the time to build a ship now!" Zhao Wudi exclaimed.

Qu Heng shook his head. "It's not necessarily the case that we need a boat, Lord Hengming?"

Hengming was trapped on the Sun Star, and the Law Power he left on the Tai Heng Star was also eroded, interfered with, and cut off by Yang Ning, so he couldn't hear anything at all.

Qu Heng called out several times, but no one answered.

Zhao Wudi said, "Why call him? He's already thinking about replacing his old haunts with new ones; he's long since stopped being on our side with Taiheng!"

"That"

"We can only use Half-Immortal Artifact!" Zhao Wudi said. "Half-Immortal Artifact also contains a small world, and with the inner worlds of all the Spiritual Law Realm cultivators, taking away the cultivators from our respective Lineage shouldn't be a problem!"

But

The inner cultivators were unhappy. Their inner realms contained living beings—holy spirits who did nothing but pray. Now that their clansmen were to be moved into the inner realms, where would they put the holy spirits?

Moreover, what does it matter to me whether my Lineage members live or die? As long as I live, I can rebuild my Lineage at any time!

Some who were attached to their Lineage immediately returned home to gather their clansmen, while others stood still, waiting to board the ship.

The Taiheng Sect possesses a total of six Half-Immortal Artifacts, two of which were obtained from Southern Forest and are named the <Longevity Bell> and <Heaven Destroying Sword>.

The remaining four items belong to the Taiheng Sect and are called <Heavenly Machine Nail>, <Zhao Scenery Cauldron Origin Returning Bell, and <Xuanji Glazed Moon>.

Among them, the Heaven Destroying Sword is a weapon of slaughter, while the Xuanji Glazed Moon is a ritual artifact. Both are at the initial stage of the Half-Immortal Artifact level and do not contain a small world inside.

The Heavenly Machine Nail contains a small world, but it is only accessible to cultivators who practice the Heavenly Secret Path, namely, cultivators of the Zhao Family.

The Longevity Bell, the Origin Returning Bell, and the Zhao Scenery Cauldron do have large spaces that can accommodate a large number of cultivators, but they also have a problem.

These magical artifacts previously belonged to the sect. Now that they're leaving with these artifacts, they need to find a master for them; otherwise, how can they be controlled?

Otherwise, what if an unclaimed immortal artifact gets stolen while flying along the road?

Normally, fighting would be inevitable to grab these things, but now time is of the essence, and Guixu is already on their faces, so they can only rely on speed; whoever gets it first gets it.

After the immortal artifacts were retrieved, it was discovered that no one had informed the others about the departure; several elders had made the decision on their own!

If someone had given prior notice, at least some cultivators with higher cultivation levels would have been waiting here to board the ship. Now that no one gave prior notice, some cultivators sensed the problem and came out to check the situation, while others were scattered in various places and did not gather here.

Moreover, this is a gathering of the Spiritual Law Realm cultivators having a meeting; which fearless Qi Refining Stage cultivator would dare to come and watch the spectacle?

So much so that apart from their own disciples and clansmen who were taken into the inner realms by some powerful Spiritual Law Realm, the remaining cultivators were all at the Spiritual Law Realm!

Seeing that the attraction was growing stronger, the cultivators at the Spiritual Law Realm dared not delay any longer. They could only let those who arrived enter the immortal artifact first, and then directly activate the artifact to leave.

The rest of you are on your own.

Only 20 minutes had passed since the black hole appeared, yet the cultivators at the Spiritual Law Realm had already determined its name, origin, and the impending destruction of the world. They then retrieved their immortal artifacts and carried it away.

Completed in one go!

Yang Ning was completely stunned. He stared blankly as the six immortal artifacts escaped from Taiheng one by one, leaving the Tai Heng Star domain at 60% of the speed of light, leaving only the Qi Refining Stage disciples of the entire sect, waiting for death with blank expressions!

"This, this is what Spiritual Law Realm cultivator is like? I've really learned something new!" Yang Ning was already prepared for the low level of these Spiritual Law Realm cultivators.

After all, the purpose of cultivating immortality is to achieve longevity. The lifespan of a cultivator in the Spiritual Law Realm is at least 100,000 years, and at most, it is as long as the universe exists. How can such cultivators be expected to sacrifice themselves for others and perish with the world?

Moreover, they were all raised by cultivation Lineage, and the selfish and self-serving education of those Lineage had seeped into their very bones.

Or rather, Lineage that wasn't selfish wouldn't have survived to this day.

Even though he was mentally prepared, Yang Ning was still shocked by how fast they escaped!

Really, no shots were fired, just a quick lubrication?

This reminded Yang Ning of a news story he had read in his previous life: the Wakanda mercenaries had only been stationed at White Goose for a short time, and the top 100 richest people on the neighboring country's rich list had already been filled.

To put it nicely, this is called "a wise man avoids standing under a dangerous wall."

To put it bluntly, for ordinary people, living in the same boat as the nation is their only option, while for those at the top, the world is so vast, there's nowhere they can't go!

Moreover, their choice was actually feasible, because with just four ships full of people and six Half-Immortal Artifacts, they could set up a super sect in any world.

Even if she were to go to a world where the Purple Origin Heavenly Venerable was in charge, she would still have to give him a certain amount of courtesy because of the many Half-Immortal Artifacts.

Yang Ning shook his head, then removed the information block on Hengming.

Because the time was too short, Hengming had only just begun to immerse himself in enlightenment when he sensed that someone was looking for him on Tai Heng Star.

With a thought, he created an avatar that came to Taiheng, and then, looking at the ever-rising Taiheng buildings and the huge black hole in the sky, he fell silent.

"What's going on?" Hengming asked.

The question was naturally directed at Yang Ning, who was standing nearby.

Yang Ning shrugged. "I'm about to go to war with Taiheng, but I've only just taken out my weapons when all of Taiheng's powerful figures have already fled!"

"Hmm?" Hengming fell silent immediately.

He wasn't stupid; he would listen to Yang Ning's side of the story. After Yang Ning finished speaking, he immediately activated his Divine Ability to sense what had happened here.

A moment later, Hengming flew into a rage. "How dare you do this!"

I've protected Taiheng for 300,000 years, and this is all I've been protected by?
