Chapter 194: Frozen Ground
"Qing Jue, what exactly is the Dark Sacrifice that the Quasi-Immortal Emperor of Hunhe mentioned before?"

The vast and dark world was illuminated by several bright figures of the soul's light.

Suddenly, the Footprint Emperor turned his head and looked at Jiang Jue with a serious face and spoke. He had seen Jiang Jue's previous reaction and was rarely worried, a kind of worry that none of the other Soul River Emperors had.

He knew about darkness, but he couldn't imagine what the so-called Dark Festival was even if he reached the Ancient Land of Darkness.

"The real source of darkness comes from the vast and boundless heaven and earth of Heaven. The so-called Dark Sacrifice is a great sacrifice held by dark creatures, using the source of life of all living beings as a sacrifice to some incredible existence. It is a real turmoil that sweeps across the heavens and all worlds. Our ancient history is also one of the worlds that suffered. I am worried that Heaven will be eroded by darkness and will soon be destroyed."

"The darkness sweeping across the heavens!"

The Footprint Emperor was horrified. The chaos caused by the darkness was so terrible that even the Quasi-Immortal Emperor could not imagine it.

If even the legendary God has fallen, what can they do?

"Yes, although the dark turmoil in our world is terrible, it is far from comparable to the turmoil faced by the Heavens. The dark creatures may have already sacrificed the Heavens. That would be an unprecedented war in which all the imperial cities of the Heavens would fight."

Jiang Jue spoke with a serious expression.

He couldn't imagine what the situation of God was at this moment.

However, one thing is certain: the dark sacrifice that began after Emperor Gu Ge was corrupted by darkness must have been extremely horrifying. Even if the heavens could be described as infinite, they could not withstand the great sacrifice that lasted for countless years.

Especially the battle in the realm of the Immortal Emperor must be started by Heaven. Just thinking about it makes me scared. If the Immortal Emperor explodes, all the heavens and worlds will be destroyed. Heaven's sea sacrifice is definitely the work of the Immortal Emperor.

I just hope that God hasn't completely broken down yet.

Time flies. A long time has passed since Jiang Jue and everyone else moved from the Soul River to another time and space.

Relying on the instinctive guidance of Jiang Jue's World Tree Body, the few of them kept shuttling through the dark and cold universe.

In fact, it transferred multiple times along the way, spanning a lot of unknown and destroyed ancient history.

Although they knew that the time and space they existed in still belonged to the Soul River domain, the flowing Soul River no longer manifested in this time and space. Moreover, the ripples of the Tao that connected the present world to the underworld, similar to the immortal realm and the ancient land, could no longer be felt, and the Soul River no longer flowed into those ancient histories.

This means that the ancient history that has appeared in the present world has already reached the state of destruction, and the long river of ancient history that they have stepped into has dried up.

And all this is most likely caused by the dark turmoil.

As time went by, the entire dim crimson world gradually faded away, and the temperature of the entire space and time began to slowly rise as everyone moved forward.

It was not the gentle feeling of sunshine, but the extremely yin will of the underworld was slowly fading away. After all, the reality of the world was different from the underworld where the soul lived, and the rules and order were very obviously different.

It was not until the bare mountains began to emerge that smiles that had not been seen for a long time appeared on the faces of several people.

After it took them another thousand years to cross this infinite mountain range, a distorted void emerged, and floating above the entire sky was the looming true pattern of time. This was very similar to the strange phenomenon that Jiang Jue and his companions encountered after they passed through the stone wall of the Xian Gu Tong Gu land. It was like a teleportation array constructed by the true pattern of time.

The next moment, several people looked at each other and then plunged into the twisted void.

At the edge of a desolate and broken universe, the stars in the vast sky and earth are dim.

Countless terrifying broken voids emerged, the sky was pierced, and the abyss that spanned billions of miles of heaven and earth cut off the entire universe.

The stars have lost their colors, and all you can see across the sky and earth are slowly moving ancient stars.

The secret realms of the destroyed world are also overlapping, and the scene is extremely horrifying.

"Boundary Tomb!"

On an ancient star, several figures stepped out from the void. They were Jiang Jue and his group.

Looking at the destroyed world, the man selling fake medicine said solemnly, this is the space and time that was piled up and overlapped after countless worlds were destroyed.

"Isn't this the heaven?"

Chi Ling spoke, his brows furrowed.

"We have already left the Soul River, but the world before us is shattered. No living creature exists. Even the Dao has collapsed. The world is coming to an end."

The butcher spoke, saying that he had traveled to foreign lands and had seen many such great worlds.

"Did the dark creatures destroy this world?"

The Footprint Emperor spoke, using his supreme secret power to trace back what happened in this time and space eternity ago, but unfortunately he could not see the truth.

The time when ancient history was destroyed was too far away from the present world they lived in, so far away that even the quasi-immortal emperor could not glimpse the time when the world was destroyed.

"We may have come to another world!"

When Jiang Jue opened his mouth, his whole body was like an exploding sun. When the World Tree Dharma Body behind him manifested, it illuminated all the heavens and worlds. Chains of order constructed the longitude and latitude of heaven and earth.

boom…

The entire world fell into a surging ocean of time, and billions of miles of void turned into waves of time that swept across the sky.

The next moment, the originally dead world was reviving like a sleeping ancient god, and the laws of nature seemed to be condensing order and reflecting it here.

Jiang Jue is using his original body to attract the dormant world will of this world. This is a means of forcibly awakening the world will.

In an instant, just like when he broke through the fog of time and went to see the footprints of the Emperor before he fell, Jiang Jue's will was like his soul, penetrating this ancient history and stepping into the long river of time.

"It was sacrificed indeed!"

After a long time, Jiang Jue, who was peeking at the truth of the destruction of this space and time, slowly spoke.

"An imperial war once took place in this world. The entire universe collapsed. There is no breath of any living creature. But we still don't know where the road to heaven is."

The Footprint Emperor spoke. Even though he could not go back through time and step into the mist of time like Jiang Jue, he could still feel the secret power and traces of the Quasi-Immortal Emperor.

"Let's go!"

The next moment, Jiang Jue opened his mouth and fled towards the center of this space and time. They had come to another space and time. They didn't know how far it was from here to heaven, but at least they had bypassed the ancient dark land.

Now, after coming into contact with the world will of all heavens and worlds, Jiang Jue's Tao fruits are about to be sublimated and transformed again. However, he is still not sure if he can face the old man of destruction. What's more, there is a brother Di Gu who has truly stepped into the supreme realm. Although his dark body is incomplete, it is definitely not something that creatures below the Immortal Emperor can challenge.

As they once again traveled through countless ruined secret realms and ancient lands, everyone's face looked solemn.

The heaven and earth collapsed, all things were annihilated, even the uninhabited areas turned into desolate rocky beaches, and the fairyland had turned into scorched earth and ruins. This place might have been a bigger world that was more prosperous than the fairyland, but now it has collapsed.

At this moment, everyone couldn't help but feel sad. If the darkness could not be pacified, their world would eventually become like this.

As time went by, after almost crossing the entire world, a vast ocean appeared in front of everyone.

"Boundary Sea, how is that possible! Haven't we already left that ancient history?"

Chi Ling was shocked. The vast sea in front of him looked too familiar. Huge waves rushed into the depths of the sky. Even the immortal body could hardly withstand the terrifying force. Countless thunders directly exploded into pieces of thunder abysses under the impact. When each wave rose, countless broken stars appeared on the waves like gray pearls. That was the ocean formed after countless worlds were destroyed.

However, the Footprint Emperor and the Burial Master fell into deep thought.

"It's not the same!"

The butcher spoke. Having spent many epochs in the Sea of ​​Boundaries, he still felt

"It is indeed a boundary sea, but it is not the boundary sea of ​​our ancient history. It is the sea area formed by the destroyed world in this ancient history."

Jiang Jue spoke calmly. The boundary sea was where all things were beaten back to chaos after the world was destroyed, but it was not the original chaos after all. The loss of the plasticity of the original chaos that evolved all things led to the gray and turbid sea before our eyes today.

"Looks like we've come to the right place!"

As soon as Jiang Jue finished speaking, the World Tree behind him gathered Chi Ling, Butcher and others and rushed directly into the sea and fled to the other side. The Footprint Emperor did not hesitate and followed closely behind.

The two stunning rays of light flew over this vast sea filled with black fog for a full four hundred thousand years. Even the quasi-immortal emperor could not describe how wide this sea was. If an immortal king wanted to cross this sea, it would probably take an epoch to measure it.

Moreover, completely different from the space-time boundary sea where the few people were, where there were many fallen creatures and fallen king beasts, this sea area did not have any breath of life.

Forty-two thousand years later, a world appeared on the other side of the sea boundary, which was completely different from the destroyed world they encountered when they entered this time and space before.

It was a horrible permafrost where the endless land, glaciers, rivers and ancient trees were frozen. However, it was not just frost.

Billions of miles of galaxies in the sky are frozen, countless ancient stars have transformed into huge ice balls and emerged, and countless ice pillars that extend from the earth to the sky seem to be the foundation that supports the sky.

This world has been frozen by the will of the world.

It is also possible that it was frozen by the supreme secret power of other creatures, and the entire sea area was affected, resulting in an ice age scene. The cold was biting, and it was impossible for creatures with low cultivation to survive.

A few breaths later, Jiang Jue and Footprint Emperor stepped onto the frozen soil.

"I feel a great and majestic will, distant and ancient. Perhaps we have arrived in heaven!"

The Footprint Emperor spoke and when he stepped into the frozen soil, he sensed a different aura of heaven and earth.

This is the law of heaven and earth that is fed back by the different wills of living beings in each world. Living beings practice cultivation, and their wills become strong. When they break through the realm, they feed back to heaven and earth and create different wills in the heavens and all worlds. Jiang Jue's feelings are the most profound.

The World Tree gives birth to the world, and it is very active in feeling the different auras of Tao.

"Even if it's not, this world is still worth exploring!"

When Jiang Jue spoke, he had already released Chi Ling, Zang Zhu and others from the Imperial Realm.

"Infinite frozen ground?"

The Undertaker who stepped out of the Imperial Realm murmured, his eyes full of anticipation.

"The frozen civilization is indeed worth looking forward to."

The butcher's face was also excited, they left that time and space just for the Emperor's Road, and now they have felt the different atmosphere of civilization, which will be of great help to their upcoming journey.

"Let's go!"

After Jiang Jue spoke, he looked at the Footprint Emperor and then walked towards the depths of the frozen soil.

The two of them have already felt the breath of life in this icy world.

This time, everyone was not too anxious, but moved slowly in this world.

After millions of years, several people saw traces of civilization again. Although it was very old, mysterious and ancient true patterns emerged from some ruined altars and ancient cities that were frozen in the ice.

The corpses of the towering ancient beasts were surrounded by ice cones, their immortal divinity had disappeared, and if not frozen they would have turned to ashes. Many broken weapons and spears were buried under the frozen soil, which was shocking. Some ancient battle flags were frozen in the void, and together with the broken ancient palaces, one could imagine the glory of the civilization.

At this moment, in an ancient land somewhere in this infinite frozen land, the true patterns of the laws are emitting thousands of rays of light that bombard this frozen world.

A group of figures appeared in this ancient land full of icebergs, and they even used secret techniques and treasures to attack the glaciers.

Someone activated the ancient tripod, and the true pattern spread, directly breaking a thousand-foot-high iceberg. Looking at their young faces, it was amazing that they had such terrifying strength at this age. Someone used a sword to cut off piece by piece of frozen soil. The ice that had been there for billions of years was comparable to fine iron, but it could not stop their sword energy.

They did this only to dig out the countless mysterious bone symbols and ancient artifacts buried in the glaciers and permafrost.

Yes, they came here for this ancient prehistoric civilization.

A group of young boys and girls were traveling together, and they were guarded by many great leaders and a powerful man with an immortal body who was at the top of the human realm. Everyone had a very solemn expression, fearing that something unexpected would happen.

Because they know what this area where they have come to means.

This is an area numbered 998 by the heavens. It is also a world that was confirmed to have no source of destruction after many investigations. Only then did they dare to set foot here to explore prehistoric civilization.

"I really don't know what good things there are in this area that are worth our trouble. The elders are really stupid. They insist on asking us to come here to look for this so-called prehistoric civilization."

A young man complained while using a Heavenly Sword to cut through the glacier.

"That's right. I am the head of all the heavens. There are countless mysteries of the great Dao waiting for us to practice. Even if there is civilization in this lower world, what good can it do? It has been destroyed. What's the use of digging it out? It can't fight against those ominous things and darkness."

The young man at the side also spoke up and echoed. Now the heaven is facing darkness, and the war has swept countless worlds in the heaven. The brutality of the battle is unimaginable. They want to grow up as soon as possible to join the battlefield, but now they are sent to this desolate and frozen underworld to dig for treasures.

As soon as he finished speaking, he gained the approval of some young boys and girls. They came from heaven, so naturally they looked down on these so-called lower world civilizations. In their eyes, no matter how powerful the lower world was, it could never be compared with the world above, not to mention that they had also been destroyed, so what was the point of obtaining them?

But many elders in the tribe gave the order, so they had to do it and just treat it as an experience.

Of course, it is not just their pastoral tribe. Many clans in the heavens are sending people into some destroyed underworlds to search for civilizations. It is said that they are hoping to research an invincible way to save the heavens.

"Be content, Mu Ai! This lower world has no source of destruction, so it's considered safe. Do you want to go to other areas?"

A girl not far away spoke, and the boys and girls who had originally looked proud tensed their faces.

The source of destruction, according to legend, even the Dao Ancestors would perish in the face of such a great terror, they dare not speak of it anymore. At that level, even the mention of their titles would be sensed, they came from heaven and knew it better than anyone else.

Just as the girl said, they were glad that there was no source of destruction in this underworld. Of course, this was just what they thought, and they didn't know the specific situation yet.

"I…I just…!"

The young man who had spoken earlier stammered. Facing such an extremely dangerous place, he was unable to refute.

"Okay, hurry up and do it. I feel uneasy all the time. I need to leave as soon as possible."

As if to avoid the young man's embarrassment, the old man in the lead spoke. As an extremely powerful person in the human realm, he had even touched the level of the immortal realm and knew many secrets.

Since the darkness broke out in the sky, countless vast ancient domains have been destroyed, and the heavens and myriad worlds are not much better off, including this ancient world before us.

However, there is a reason why they came here to look for the underworld civilization that they have never looked down upon.

Many Taoist ancestors of heaven died in the war.

Many cultivation systems have been eroded by darkness, and countless outstanding masters are constantly looking for ways to break through, trying to find a new way, to break the shackles, to break to the extreme, to find an invincible way that is enough to destroy the darkness.

The current cultivation system of Heaven alone is unable to fight against the dark turmoil.

Some Dao ancestors in the heavens have always wanted to guide the systems of the heavens in the hope of gaining something, or to explore all the systems that can be explored in the heavens to create an unprecedented path to deal with the darkness.

Now God is losing ground. If the trend cannot be reversed, God will inevitably be destroyed.

In addition to the rumored path of cultivation that once dominated the heavens and came from the lower realm, many Dao Ancestors also came from the heavens. After reaching that level, their vision would naturally not be as arrogant as those of the lower-level practitioners, and the Dao Ancestors born in the heavens were all very amazing.

There was even someone in Heaven who wanted to lead the power of the heavens into Heaven to save Heaven from the crisis, but, unfortunately, that person's whereabouts are now unknown.

However, the supreme being from thousands of years ago eventually fell, and the path of cultivation was polluted as well.

Many great men have always refused to believe that the source of that road has been polluted. Even in the world today, there are still people trying to embark on that path of cultivation, but all of them have encountered ominous things.

Finding the power to break the impasse is the difficult problem that God is facing now.

As time went by, everyone collected a lot of bone symbols and ancient artifacts, preparing to take them back for the masters in the tribe to study.

Suddenly, when they were about to leave, the old man leading the crowd inadvertently looked towards the other side of the endless ice field ahead.

Several stunning rays of light shone upon him, and his soul felt a sense of shock and excitement.

"There is... there is great terror, hurry, retreat!"

The old man spoke with a trembling voice. In this lower world, there were actually living beings besides them. His face began to turn pale.
