What is Silent Ruins?
"I don't know."
"But the last glimpse of the Great Desolation I saw was remarkably similar to the Silent Ruins described in the records."
"When all Spirit Root, this is stillness; when mountains, rivers, and stars are ruined, this is desolation."
Yinyang Qingfan briefly explained what is called "Silent Ruins".
In fact, even she didn't know where Silent Ruins came from.
The ancient books she consulted were also brought down from the Great Desolation.
The above only contains this brief sentence.
This is what happened in the Great Desolation at the end.
"So, with the Great Desolation destroyed, does that mean the Imprisoned Dragon has no way to ascend?"
"Then why do you still say I have a chance to ascend to immortality?"
Lu Li suddenly realized something contradictory.
Yinyang Qingfan once said that the Great Thousand Upper Realm to which the Imprisoned Dragon belongs is the Great Desolation.
How can he ascend to immortality if the Great Desolation is destroyed?
Does ascension mean returning to Blue Star?
And... if the Great Desolation perished, how did Blue Star survive to this day?
"Though the Great Desolation is gone, it is naturally impossible to ascend to immortality."
"Even if one forcibly breaks into the Great Desolation Realm, there will be no spiritual energy, and sooner or later, the immortal body will be damaged."
"Therefore, when Dao Lord ascends, they can only sneak into a neighboring Great Thousand Immortal Realm to ascend. It's dangerous, but at least there's a way to go."
Yinyang Qingfan provides the answer.
It also provided a detailed explanation of the current situation of the Imprisoned Dragon.
Why did the Central Continent the Eastern Desolation Star sever the heavens and earth, sealing off the Central Continent' fortune and Spiritual Qi?
It's because the Imprisoned Dragon Realm lost its upper realm and its path to ascension.
In order to obtain the opportunity to ascend to immortality, Central Continent had no choice but to forcibly become its own independent territory.
This is to deceive the surrounding world, so that they will not be punished and killed when they ascend, and can pass through safely.
It's not just the Eastern Wasteland Central Continent that's doing this.
This is true for many of the planets and continents across the entire Imprisoned Dragon.
They carved out a territory to conceal the aura and fortune that originally belonged to the Imprisoned Dragon Realm.
Concealing the secrets of heaven, be careful not to break into other realms when you ascend.
Having lost the Great Desolation, this is all the subordinates can do.
In fact, the entire Great Desolation encompasses three thousand Middle Realms.
Without the Great Desolation as a guide to the vast world.
The cultivators of these three thousand middle realms who wish to ascend to the Great Thousand realms can only do so by smuggling themselves across.
This is true for all three thousand realms.
After saying this, Yinyang Qingfan remained silent.
The main hall fell completely silent.
Lu Li upright in the main seat, motionless.
a long time.
He slowly closed his eyes.
Yinyang Qingfan's words surged through his mind.
The Great Desolation.
The Primordial Desolation.
Silent Ruins.
Time... has stopped.
These words are too heavy.
It was so heavy that he couldn't process it for a while.
But he can't afford to act rashly.
The more this is the case, the more calm we need to be.
He took a deep breath and began to sort through the points one by one.
First.
The universe where Blue Star is located is called the Great Desolation, which is indeed the legendary primordial Primordial Desolation.
second.
The Great Desolation perished, all living beings and traditions were wiped out, leaving only mountains and rivers.
This means that the future of Blue Star is not safe; a huge, lurking threat awaits him in his homeland, his return journey, and even his future destination.
third.
Now, life, people, and civilization have returned to Blue Star.
This shows that the Great Desolation has been revitalized after countless years, and that Great Desolation has not completely perished.
fourth.
He arrived in the Imprisoned Dragon Realm, and the Spiritual Qi of Blue Star began to revive.
The Great Desolation possesses Spiritual Qi, and even though we are a fragmented Great Thousand World, we still have the opportunity to ascend in the future.
This means that the Silent Ruins may return.
Now, thanks to him, Blue Star is reviving once again, and the Great Desolation is reviving once more.
This is no coincidence.
Absolutely not.
It's destiny.
It's inevitable.
It is highly likely that this trajectory was predetermined by some entity countless years ago.
And that existence...
Lu Li opened his eyes, his gaze piercing through the main hall and through the void, as if looking towards some distant, unreachable depth.
Silent Ruins.
This name weighed heavily on his heart.
If one day he really has to face that thing that even time can erase.
The pressure is immense.
But Lu Li slowly clenched his fist.
He rose from a menial laborer to where he is today, and it was never by chance.
It's about preparation.
Since there's no way to avoid it, let's start now.
Prepare for that day.
Lu Li remained silent for a long time before finally speaking.
"You can go now."
I'll call you again if I need anything.
"By the way, Changming is my disciple. You need to find a way to handle your relationship with Jiangxue Xue."
"We can't keep letting this young couple live apart."
Yinyang Qingfan was slightly taken aback, but quickly understood and bowed before retreating.
The palace doors closed, leaving only Lu Li alone.
He needs some peace and quiet.
After meeting Yinyang Qingfan, what he learned was far too heavy.
He needed to figure out how to tell Great Xia.
Tell them that the world they live in was once a colossal entity called the Great Desolation.
Tell them that the Blue Star universe was destroyed by some incomprehensible force.
And that power may still be lurking in the shadows.
What will their reaction be?
Fear? Confusion?
Or should we, like him, silently accept it, and then... begin preparations?
Regardless, the Great Xia should now be aware of its past.
Taking a deep breath, Lu Li released the fish-shaped jade pendant.
Quietly observing.
The blood-red jade pendant floated in his palm.
Apart from the wisps of black mist appearing on the surface, there were no other changes to its appearance.
Only the interior space has been completely transformed.
Divine Sense probed in.
Lu Li clearly saw the changes in the jade pendant.
A few months ago, that place was just beginning to radiate Spiritual Qi.
It has now transformed into a Diplomatic School of land stretching for hundreds of miles.
It truly separated a wisp of turbid air from a wisp of pure air.
It is about a hundred miles away.
It floats in the center of the jade pendant.
There was a subtle, ethereal movement in the air.
It seems that in some time it may transform into true Spiritual Qi.
The Jade Pendant Space, having absorbed countless resources and the Imprisoned Dragon Mountain, underwent tremendous changes.
It wouldn't be an exaggeration to call it the prototype of a world.
Lu Li stared blankly at this world that was just beginning to take shape, speechless for a long time.
" The Great Xia and the Imprisoned Dragon Realm are connected because of you."
"Even the revival of Blue Star began because of you."
What exactly are you?
Why me of all people?
"How can you create such a world within your own body?"
" Silent Ruins, Great Desolation, Upper Realm, Middle Thousand Realms, Ascension..."
Questions and names swirled in his mind.
Lu Li was unable to find the answer.
However, he understood that as his cultivation level increased, he would become involved with the Imprisoned Dragon and even other realms of existence.
All of this will be revealed gradually.
Even when his cultivation breaks through again, the jade pendant will surely exhibit other advanced effects.
By then, he might have more clues.
You'll know more.
Sooner or later, he will know the whole story.
"Very well, it's time to let the nation know about Blue Star's past."
Returning to his senses, Lu Li grasped the jade pendant.
Prepare to send a message to Great Xia, so that Great Xia will face these earth-shattering secrets.
"Buzz!"
Spiritual Power surged, and the jade pendant emitted a familiar humming sound.
The light gradually rose, illuminating his cheeks.
A series of flashes of inspiration struck Lu Li, whose eyes suddenly lit up slightly.
A long-forgotten question suddenly surfaced in his mind, and its answer appeared at that moment.
"No wonder!"
"No wonder the Great Xia can only transmit the souls of those whose lives are nearing their end!"
