"It's time to fulfill Poseidon's promise. I just never thought that the day of the worldly ebb would come so soon," Jian Chen murmured to himself. He was not surprised that Poseidon had been able to find him. Although Poseidon no longer possessed a body, his soul was even more powerful than in ancient times. He could easily envelop the entire Tian Yuan Continent or even the Beast God Continent.
Jianchen got off the bed. He had no idea how long his trip to the sea realm would take. Before he left, there were some things he needed to make clear, especially the Flame Mercenaries. He needed to be on guard against the revenge of the Underworld sect at all times.
"A 'Hu … A' Hu, don't go. Don't leave your mother. You're my only son. Mother can't be without you, A 'Hu …"
As soon as Jianchen opened the door, Ling Long's sorrowful voice rang out from afar.
Jianchen was stunned, but he seemed to think of something soon after. His face immediately changed slightly, and he hurried over.
From afar, Jianchen saw his elder brother, Changyang Hu, hovering ten meters in the air in white robes. He did not give off any pulses of energy. He did not control elemental energy as a Heaven Saint Master to hover in the air. At the same time, Jianchen did not sense any Saint Ruler abilities from Changyang Hu. Changyang Hu was hovering in the air in a way that even Jianchen did not understand and had never heard of before.
An indescribable charm flowed from Changyang Hu, making him seem otherworldly. He seemed like an immortal who had not been tainted by the dust of the mortal world. He possessed a sacred charm.
On the ground, Ling Long raised her head to look at the Changyang Prefecture hovering ten meters in the air. Tears constantly streamed down her face. She was filled with sorrow as she cried out pleadingly.
A group of guards had already gathered around them. Even Yu Fengyan, Bai Yushuang, Bi Yuntian, and the head of Changyang Prefecture, Changyang Ba, had hurried over. All of them looked at Changyang Hu in bewilderment.
Jianchen's heart sank. He knew that the thing he hated to see the most had finally happened. He took a step forward and instantly crossed over a hundred meters and appeared in front of Changyang Hu.
"Big brother!" Looking at Changyang Hu's emotionless expression, Jianchen couldn't help but anxiously call out to Changyang Hu.
Changyang Hu's expression was very calm. His eyes were sometimes very bright, clear and transparent, like two resplendent pearls, filled with great wisdom and great perseverance. Sometimes, it would become an expanse of darkness. It was as deep as the vast starry sky, and it contained a universe that was all-encompassing. It was as if it had formed a small world of its own, and it was extremely mysterious and difficult to understand.
"Fourth brother, big brother is leaving." Changyang Hu said to Jianchen with a calm gaze. There was a trace of a smile on his face. The way he called out 'fourth brother' was so calm, and it no longer had the sincerity from before.
At this moment, Jianchen felt as if his big brother had become a completely different person. He was so unfamiliar that Jianchen couldn't find the slightest trace of familiarity.
The scenes of him interacting with his big brother in Kargath Academy flashed through Jianchen's mind like a movie. Jianchen felt waves of pain in his heart. He had already realized that his big brother Changyang Hu had already severed the last of his familial ties. From now on, he had become a stranger. The big brother in his memories would no longer exist in the future.
From now on, his big brother, who was as close as a brother to him, would only live in his memories.
"Big brother, have you really severed your own emotions? Can you really bear to see big aunt hurt because of you?" Jianchen's voice trembled slightly. He still wanted to try and see if he could awaken Changyang Hu.
Changyang Hu continued to smile. His expression did not change at all after hearing Jianchen's words. He gazed deeply into the distance and said, "The world is heartless. We are nurtured by the world, and we follow the path of the world to comprehend the world. The turbid air of the mortal world is like strands of demonic aura, blinding the eyes of the world and confusing the hearts of the world. Only by transcending can we find our original heart and understand the mysteries of the world. "
"Life is like a dream. In life, dreams come true. When people die, dreams come to an end. Everything we experience is both real and illusory, but in the end, it will still turn into nothingness. Dreams may seem fake, but they are not real. What seems real is not real. The so-called emotions and desires are all like this, illusory and illusory. Only by dispelling the fog of the mortal world, finding our original heart, understanding our true self, and severing our false self can we settle down and establish our life. We can witness the mysteries of the world and prove the supreme great dao … "
With that, Changyang Hu drifted away. He left in a carefree manner without any hesitation.
Jianchen remained silent. He hovered in the air as he silently watched Changyang Hu's figure gradually disappear into the distance. He felt waves of pain in his heart. He knew that Changyang Hu had completely severed everything. In the future, there would probably be no more familial ties in Changyang Hu's eyes. There would only be an unchanging heart to comprehend the world. He had embarked on an unusual path.
For a moment, Jianchen became somewhat dispirited. He was in a very bad mood. Not long ago, he had lost Ruijin, Honglian, and Black Fish. Today, he had lost the big brother he respected the most. Although he had the ability to force his big brother to stay, he did not do so. He knew that all of this was futile. Changyang Hu's path had already been decided. It was difficult to change it.
"Changyang Hu …" Changyang Hu's departure without any reluctance shattered Linglong's heart. She let out a sorrowful cry before fainting.
"First Madam, First Madam …" The maids turned pale with fright and quickly supported Linglong.
"Send First Madam back to her room to rest." Changyang Ba said with a downcast expression. His heart was very heavy.
Jianchen stared at the place where Changyang Hu disappeared for a long time before letting out a long sigh. He returned to the ground with a gloomy expression.
"Xiang'er, come to mother!" Bi Yuntian came to Jianchen's side and tightly held onto Jianchen's arm. After personally witnessing what had happened to Changyang Hu, Bi Yuntian felt somewhat afraid. She was afraid that she would lose her child like Linglong.
"Xiang'er, can you tell father what happened to your big brother?" Changyang Ba asked bitterly. He had also realized that his eldest son, Changyang Hu, had probably become a thing of the past.
Jianchen remained silent for a moment before saying, "Big brother has chosen a path that suits him. He has embarked on a different path of cultivation. I don't know what will happen in the future."
Outside Lore City, a white-robed person stood on a tree branch and watched Changyang Hu leave. He murmured, "Looks like Changyang Hu has already broken through the final barrier. His state of mind has already reached perfection. He has finally reached this step."
… …
Due to what had happened to Changyang Hu, Jianchen's journey to the sea realm was delayed by a day. On the second day, Jianchen first went to the Flame Mercenaries to hand over some matters before comforting Bi Yuntian.
After repeatedly promising that he would return once he was done, he set off for the sea realm with Nubis.
Emerging from the Space Gate, Jianchen and Nubis hovered above the vast sea. Feeling the tranquility of the sea and the gentle breeze, they immediately felt a sense of comfort and relaxation from the bottom of their hearts. The gloominess from their brother's departure the previous day was completely swept away.
With the help of the sea goddess, Jianchen and Nubis passed through the barrier without any obstructions. At the same time, Poseidon's voice rang out in their ears, "The worldly ebb will erupt in the next few days. I will keep an eye on the situation of the worldly ebb. Stay in the sea realm for the next few days and wait for my news."
"Yes, your majesty Poseidon!" Jianchen replied respectfully. After a moment of hesitation, he said to the empty space, "Your majesty, Jianchen has something to ask. May I ask if your majesty knows the protector Shui of the arctic Ice Goddess Hall?" Jianchen knew that Poseidon was basically an omnipresent existence in the sea realm. She would definitely be able to hear what he said.
However, as soon as Jianchen finished speaking, an illusionary woman with a hazy appearance silently appeared before him. She asked sternly, "Why are you asking about the arctic Ice Goddess Hall? Do you still want to go there? "
Before Jianchen could reply, Poseidon continued, "I've never heard of the protector Shui of the arctic Ice Goddess Hall, but the arctic Ice Goddess Hall is an extremely terrifying place. Who knows how many Holy Emperor experts have entered the icy plains since ancient times, but less than a tenth of them have returned alive. In the past, I tried to investigate the depths of the icy plains with the power of my soul, but as soon as my soul approached the icy plains, it was frozen by an extremely terrifying coldness. At the same time, the coldness used the power of my soul as a guide, rapidly spreading toward the sea realm. If I had not withdrawn the power of my soul in time, the consequences would have been unthinkable. " Poseidon's voice was filled with deep fear. It was more than enough to make the sea goddess, who had reached the Origin realm, feel like this.
"Afterwards, the Winged Tiger gave Amagami to me. At the same time, he reminded me that unless the icy plains in the arctic vanished, I was not to investigate the icy plains no matter what happened. As a result, I never went to investigate the icy plains again." Poseidon's voice was filled with mixed emotions. The power of her soul was extremely powerful. Not only could it envelop the entire sea realm, but she could even go to the vast Tian Yuan Continent and Beast God Continent as she pleased. She could even extend it to the Wasteland Continent where the Hundred Races resided.
Without any exaggeration, she could go wherever she wanted with her soul in this world. There was no power that could threaten her, even the greatest danger zone on the Tian Yuan Continent, the Death Nest. Only the arctic Ice Goddess Hall was a forbidden zone that she would never set foot in.
"Your majesty, do you know when the Ice Goddess Hall appeared?" Jianchen asked again. After all, the sea goddess was a sovereign who had been born in the same era as Mo Tianyun and the others. The secrets she knew were incomparable to the Holy Emperor.
"The Ice Goddess Hall seems to have existed since ancient times. No one knows when it appeared, but the people of the Ice Goddess Hall rarely appear on the Tian Yuan Continent. Every time they appear, they go to the Tian Yuan Continent to find disciples. They keep an extremely low profile," said Poseidon. She answered all of Jianchen's questions to the best of her abilities.
At this moment, Jianchen thought about how the sword spirits had said that protector Shui had come from above. If that was the case, was the Ice Goddess Hall created by protector Shui?
Jianchen asked again when he thought up to there, "Your majesty, is there a way for people who have surpassed the Holy Emperor to live for over a million years?"
Poseidon shook her head, "Beyond the Holy Emperor is the Origin realm. There are three realms of Origin, which are Receival, Returnance, and Reciprocity. According to my understanding, the Origin realm only has a lifespan of a hundred thousand years. Even if you reach Returnance and use various heavenly resources to increase your lifespan, it's impossible for you to live for over two hundred thousand years. It's impossible for you to live for a million years. Perhaps it's only possible if you surpass the Origin realm and reach an even higher realm. "
"Of course, if you have the assistance of some heaven-defying treasure, you might be able to live for a million years or even longer. However, even if that's the case, you'll only end up like me. You'll only be able to preserve your soul, but you won't be able to possess a body. At the same time, your soul won't be able to leave the treasure that protects it."
