In the past, Gu Qingfeng did not understand.
He did not understand why overlords like Chiyou and Xing Tian, who had the power to destroy the world, would be suppressed in the Returning Ruins.
Now, he more or less had some understanding of it.
Destroying the world did not mean that one was omnipotent. Even if one destroyed the world, it did not mean that one could escape from the world.
Moreover, the world was probably not a simple world.
Even a Desolate Ancient Ruin was so mysterious and strange, let alone a world that gave birth to all things.
Gu Qingfeng did not continue to torment himself. Instead, he found a comfortable place to sleep in the huge cauldron. He did not know how long he slept. When he woke up, the huge cauldron was still the huge cauldron, the seal was still the seal, and the desert was still the desert. Nothing had changed.
Although he had been alone all these years and was used to being alone, it did not mean that he could enjoy being alone.
Especially in this desolate and lifeless Desolate Ancient Ruin, it was not a problem to stay for eight to ten years, or even a hundred to eighty years. Even longer, Gu Qingfeng thought that he could endure it.
If he really could not endure it, he would learn again and try to leave using Nirvana Rebirth.
If he could not leave using Nirvana Rebirth, he could just seal himself and leave it to fate. If he was lucky, the ruin might appear in the vast wilderness. If he was unlucky, he could just treat it as if he was dead. It was not a big deal.
Gu Qingfeng thought about whether he should take the opportunity to go into seclusion and study his body.
Since he could not leave and had nothing to do, he might as well go into seclusion and study.
He was already prepared to do so.
But after thinking about it, he gave up. He was not willing to be trapped here.
He thought that he had to think of a way to leave this place.
He had thought of all the methods that he could think of and tried all the methods that he could. Even destroying this Desolate Ancient Ruin was useless. At this point, Gu Qingfeng could only obediently comprehend this Desolate Ancient Ruin.
He knew very well that if he wanted to leave this place, he had to comprehend the mystery of this ruin.
This thing was like treating a disease. In order to treat a disease, one had to know what the disease was before they could prescribe the right medicine. If they didn't even know what the disease was and used the wrong medicine, not only would the disease not be cured, it might even worsen the disease.
The methods Gu Qingfeng had tried before were no different from using random medicine. He had wanted to try his luck, but it turned out that his luck was not very good. Fortunately, he had learned that Ancestor Lin Chi was related to the giant cauldron and the Desolate Ancient Ruins.
Since that's the case.
Gu Qingfeng could only carefully comprehend the mysteries within.
As for whether or not he could comprehend it, that was unknown.
The Desolate Ancient Vestige didn't have an Origin, principles, or even a structure. It looked the same as the turbulent currents in the Endless Sea. The difference was that the turbulent currents in the Endless Sea were ever-changing without any rules. Although this Desolate Ancient Vestige didn't have any rules, it didn't have any changes.
What was even stranger was that this Desolate Ancient Vestige was misty and blurry, giving off an unreal feeling. It was like a reflection in the water. No matter how strong the current was or how high the waves were, the reflection wouldn't change.
Gu Qingfeng continued to comprehend like this. He didn't know how much time had passed, but gradually, he seemed to have comprehended something. It was like he was lost in the darkness and suddenly saw a flash of light. However, this light was too faint, so faint that if he didn't look carefully, he wouldn't be able to see it. It was like if he closed his eyes, he wouldn't be able to see this dim light.
He continued to comprehend, searching for that dim light in the darkness.
At this moment, Gu Qingfeng was completely immersed in it. He forgot about time, forgot about space, forgot about himself, forgot about everything. There was only that dim light in his mind.
He was afraid that this dim light would disappear, so he frantically ran towards it. He was getting closer and closer, and the light gradually became clearer.
Gradually, the dim light was no longer dim in his eyes, but became brighter.
As he got closer and closer, the bright light was even somewhat dazzling.
Finally.
Gu Qingfeng came to the front of the light. The light was like a bright sun, but also like a shining door full of hope. He rushed in without any hesitation.
The light disappeared, and Gu Qingfeng came to a strange place.
Above the sky, a huge turbulent vortex was slowly rotating, and below it was an endless desert.
A mountain range that looked like a dragon's skeleton was lying in the desert.
Good heavens!
He had actually returned to the Desolate Ancient Vestige.
What the hell was going on?
His own body was trapped here. Could it be that his mother's consciousness was also trapped here?
How could he comprehend and return to the starting point?
He had clearly comprehended something just now, so why did it become like this?
Wait!
Something was wrong!
Gu Qingfeng suddenly realized that at this moment, his physical body was in a meditative state. In other words, he was now completely a wisp of consciousness, and this Desolate Ancient Vestige was not the original Desolate Ancient Vestige. It was more like a dream, a spiritual space.
Before he could rejoice, he thought of a terrifying possibility.
Could it be that his physical body was trapped in the real Desolate Ancient Vestige, while his consciousness was trapped in the illusory Desolate Ancient Vestige?
If that was really the case, then this was too f * cking strange!
Gu Qingfeng did not hesitate, nor did he dare to hesitate. With a thought, he appeared on the mountain range.
The mountain range in the real Desolate Ancient Vestige was filled with white bones, but there were no white bones on this mountain range.
Then, Gu Qingfeng entered the giant cauldron again.
The cauldron in the real world was also filled with white bones, but there were no white bones in the illusory cauldron either.
He walked into the central hall of the giant cauldron. What made him feel strange was that Ancestor Lin Chi was not here. Not only that, but even the seal on the magic treasure eye had disappeared.
There was nothing inside the Magic Treasure Eye. It was like a deep well, or more like the eye of an abyss.
Just as he was hesitating whether or not to jump in, a voice suddenly sounded.
"Young man, you … you've finally come."
Hearing this voice, Gu Qingfeng was startled. He turned around and found that someone had come in without him knowing.
It was an old man.
He was an old man with white hair and wore a tattered gray robe. He had the demeanor of a transcendent being.
Gu Qingfeng did not recognize this old man, nor did he know where this old man came from. The only thing he knew was that this old man was not a person, but a wisp of consciousness.
That's right!
It was a wisp of consciousness, commonly known as a wisp of consciousness.
If this was really the spiritual space of the Desolate Ancient Vestige, then it was not strange for a wisp of consciousness to appear in this spiritual space.
The strange thing was, why was this old man's wisp of consciousness in the spiritual space of the Desolate Ancient Vestige?
Was he trapped here?
Or did he belong here?
