Two Sets of Unsealing Keys, but Only One Kun
"I almost forgot about that."
Lu Changzhi shook his head, speaking softly.
It's been a long time since I obtained the Unsealing Key.
I simply took out the Unsealing Key, and I was told that it had already worked and the relevant location was about to appear.
But now that so much time has passed, there seems to be no related news.
"But."
With a soft murmur, Lu Changzhi's face showed a thoughtful expression:
"If I remember correctly, the place related to the Unsealing Key should be called the Saint Battlefield, right?"
Furthermore, he vaguely remembered that the battlefield was not only about Origin Spiritual Power, but also about the secret of immortality.
Unfortunately, all we have now is a photograph of my father; we can only listen to it, but we can't communicate with him.
In this respect, it is rather unfriendly.
Lu Changzhi waited and listened for a while longer, but no further details were mentioned. He was only told that he should go there when he had the chance.
In addition, there are other matters related to spiritual practice.
A short while later, the figure disappeared.
Peace was restored within the palace.
Lu Changzhi looked around but found nothing else, so he got up and walked outside.
"Ancestor Liang."
Liang Si was waiting outside the palace when he called out, and Lu Changzhi asked in response.
"Does the Ancestor know anything about the Unsealing Key and the Longevity Battlefield?"
Upon hearing this, Liang Si nodded:
"The space sealed by the Unsealing Key has many different names. In the Land of the Four Directions, it is called the Saint Battlefield; outside, it is called the Longevity Battlefield. According to popular legend, it holds the secret of immortality, but whether this is true or not, no one has yet confirmed it."
"Where is this battlefield located?" Lu Changzhi asked.
"It is said that the changes in the Origin Spiritual Power of the Land of the Four Directions were related to this battlefield."
"Indeed, it's relevant." Liang Si nodded.
"But this battlefield is not located in the Land of the Four Directions. Only the person holding the Unsealing Key can find its exact location."
After a pause, Liang Si added:
"According to the sect's records, there are two sets of Unsealing Key in this world."
"Two sets?" Lu Changzhi was taken aback.
Liang Si nodded:
"However, it is not complete. Of the two sets, Kun is taken, and the others each have two paths. After this unique Kun appears in the world, the two related Unsealing Key will be awakened."
"So there will be two Longevity Battlefield?" Lu Changzhi, somewhat surprised.
At the same time, he was also somewhat curious.
When he first learned that there were two sets, he wanted to know which set the Unsealing Key he had obtained belonged to.
Surprisingly, it was the only one.
Was it luck, or something else?
"No." Liang Si shook his head.
"One place is the true Longevity Battlefield, the exact location of which no one can know in advance. The other place is right here."
"In other words, from the outside perspective, this place is the former Longevity Battlefield, and one of the Unsealing Key opened the seal that exists around this Land of the Four Directions."
Lu Changzhi remained silent for a moment.
Although he had anticipated the possibility that the area around the Land of the Four Directions was sealed off, after all, for a long time, apart from the Xia Clan in the secret realm, he had not had any contact with outsiders from other places.
But the idea that the Land of the Four Directions is Longevity Battlefield sounds rather fantastical.
At this moment, Liang Si said again:
Have you ever heard of the Endless Sea?
Lu Changzhi nodded:
"The Land of the Four Directions are surrounded by the Endless Sea extremely vast. For countless years, no one has ever crossed this sea, but..."
Then, Lu Changzhi changed the subject, saying:
"If I'm not mistaken, it should be related to the seal on the Unsealing Key, right?"
"Good."
Liang Si nodded. "The Endless Sea is not actually endless; it's just that it's impassable, and we're trapped within it, hence the name 'Endless Sea.'"
"However, this seal has begun to weaken gradually since the Unsealing Key world appeared. The speed at which the calamity clouds dissipated a few days ago has increased further, and it won't be long before it completely dissipates."
"At that time, the Land of the Four Directions will no longer be isolated from the world, but will be fully exposed to the world, and with that, the associated risks will also emerge."
Lu Changzhi nodded.
He understood what the so-called risks were. If someone connected the Land of the Four Directions with the Longevity Battlefield, they would only need to think about it to understand how much of an impact this would have on the Land of the Four Directions.
"Of course, danger and opportunity coexist," Liang Si added.
"Connecting with the outside world will also bring new opportunities, and it's not all bad for the growth of the elders and disciples."
As he spoke, Liang Si handed over a jade talisman.
"There's some information here related to the outside world; you can check it out and digest it."
Afterwards, the two talked about some other things.
After staying with the patriarch for a while, Lu Changzhi left.
Having just returned to Hidden Origin Peak, Cang Wenyu arrived moments later, his face revealing undisguised curiosity, and asked:
"Changzhi, what level have your parents reached now?"
Upon hearing this, Lu Changzhi looked at Cang Wenyu, smiled slightly, and said:
"Sect Leader."
"This matter is of utmost importance. Here's what we'll do: you must first break through to the Saint Realm, and then I'll tell you."
"Um?"
Cang Wenyu looked at Lu Changzhi with a strange expression and shook his head repeatedly:
"You think everyone's like you, breaking through to the Saint Realm as easy as eating and drinking? Your standards are way too high!"
Lu Changzhi laughed heartily and said:
"Just kidding. Actually, I don't know either. I only saw the light and shadow left by my father. I have no idea what his specific level was, but I imagine it was quite high."
Upon hearing this answer, Cang Wenyu gently shook his head:
"You have the time to give me things, yet you only communicate with me through light and shadow?"
"This," Lu Changzhi coughed lightly:
Giving something is a special case; it's different in the long run.
Cang Wenyu nodded, no longer dwelling on the matter, and said:
"Your disciple, Gu Chen, encountered some trouble on this trip. Some strange changes occurred in the Endless Sea, which he happened to witness."
"Near Linhai City?" Lu Changzhi raised an eyebrow and asked.
Cang Wenyu nodded:
"Fortunately, he has temporarily averted the danger and is now on his way back."
Lu Changzhi nodded.
Gu Chen was quite familiar with the Sign-In System.
Basically, if an unusual check-in location suddenly appears, it's probably because something is about to happen in the vicinity.
This time, it was exactly as expected.
However, even the thoughts he left behind remained untouched, indicating that the trouble was clearly within a manageable range.
After asking some relevant questions and chatting about other things, Cang Wenyu got up and left.
Back inside, he sat down on the Observing Chair, about to pick up the jade talisman to examine it.
At this moment, the system notification sounded:
"Special mission has been issued. Would you like to view it?"
