Chapter 920 - 484: Entering Flat-Top Mountain Again
Chapter 920: Chapter 484: Entering Flat-Top Mountain Again
The reason the Ancient Jade’s color faded is because it was wrapped by the spiritual pellet.
Gu Sheng sat on the ground, breathing heavily, and suddenly felt a pang of sorrow in his heart.
Unknowingly, two lines of hot tears had already soaked his cheeks.
"Old Jiang..."
Gu Sheng whispered Old Jiang’s name in his heart, recalling the brief time spent with him.
"Gu Sheng..."
Suddenly, Old Jiang’s voice sounded again.
Gu Sheng shivered, and sprang to his feet, "Old Jiang? Old Jiang? Are you still alive?"
"Hehe..."
The gentle voice came from the Void.
"Gu Sheng, my mission in this life has been completed. I’ve lived for tens of thousands of years and have never been this happy. I must now fulfill the next mission. You should continue to comprehend the No Beginning Scripture; there is a way within to help you leave the Desolate Domain."
"Old Jiang? Really? Can the No Beginning Scripture truly help me leave here?"
Gu Sheng was ecstatic.
If it’s really as Old Jiang said, wouldn’t he be immensely fortunate?
Gu Sheng’s emotions soared like a roller coaster, pulled from the depths of despair to the peak of hope.
Excitedly, he spun in circles, then his gaze fell back on the Ancient Jade.
However, just as he was about to move forward, the Ancient Jade suddenly began to expand rapidly, catching him off guard.
"What’s going on?"
Gu Sheng’s heart was startled.
His intuition told him that danger was approaching.
"Whizz!"
Gu Sheng propelled Divine Power, swiftly rising and hovering in mid-air.
Soon, the Ancient Jade expanded to almost the size of a full-grown bull.
"Boom!"
A loud blast echoed as the Ancient Jade exploded.
The shockwave from the explosion rapidly spread in all directions, its force remarkably powerful.
Suspended in air, Gu Sheng felt a wave of heat hit him, almost overturning him.
"Whoa!"
Gu Sheng covered his ears, curled up in pain, until the aftermath of the explosion gradually subsided.
When Gu Sheng opened his eyes again, he found the space around him had completely transformed.
The once solemn and majestic altar and stone tablet were shattered, leaving only ruins.
This decrepit scene seemed to narrate the end of the great beings who perished thousands of years ago fighting against the outsiders.
Gu Sheng returned to the ground, looked around, and felt a surge of inexplicable sadness in his heart.
But he quickly refocused on the stone tablet inscribed with the No Beginning Scripture.
This stone tablet was completely unscathed in the explosion, as if it was protected by the power of the No Beginning Scripture.
"Providence, this is providence! If you were blown to pieces, how would I survive?"
Gu Sheng murmured, instinctively shouted aloud, "Old Jiang! Thank you!"
After speaking, not even an echo was heard.
Gu Sheng suddenly felt an extreme loneliness.
"Old Jiang... Has Old Jiang... also been obliterated with the Ancient Jade?"
Gu Sheng widened his eyes, a bit unable to believe his speculation.
But the scene before him was clear, forcing him to believe.
Moreover, Old Jiang had specially instructed; it was his mission!
"Alas!"
Gu Sheng sighed heavily and bowed deeply towards the direction of the Ancient Jade explosion, "Old Jiang! Rest in peace..."
After the mourning, Gu Sheng followed Old Jiang’s guidance to seriously study the No Beginning Scripture.
However, when Gu Sheng truly intended to study, he found himself unable to understand these ancient texts.
He frowned, reading over and over again, yet unable to grasp its meaning.
"Perhaps without the support of Old Jiang’s spiritual pellet, I cannot touch upon the essence of the No Beginning Scripture?"
Gu Sheng felt speechless.
"Fizz... fizz..."
Suddenly, the No Beginning Scripture on the stone tablet began to emit golden light.
This light grew brighter and finally enveloped Gu Sheng entirely.
Gu Sheng felt his body being gently pulled by a warm force, directly towards the No Beginning Scripture.
"What is happening! This... what is happening!"
Gu Sheng tried to resist, but after exerting almost all his strength, he found he was powerless.
Thus, he could only allow this force to draw him into the stone tablet.
"Whizz!"
As the light faded, Gu Sheng realized he was now in a completely different world.
Here, there was no sky, no earth, only endless Void and floating light points.
His body became light, as if he could float at will.
"A dream?"
Gu Sheng attempted to move, discovering he could wander freely in this Void.
"Where is this place?"
Gu Sheng couldn’t help but talk to himself.
"Slap!"
After speaking, Gu Sheng gave himself a hard slap.
"Ouch!"
He almost smashed his own cheek, painfully rubbing his face gently, "This isn’t a dream? Where exactly is this?"
"This is the world of the No Beginning Scripture."
A voice echoed in his ear.
This voice he had never heard, as if coming from a distant past.
Gu Sheng looked around but couldn’t find the source of the voice.
"Who are you? Are you Old Jiang?"
Gu Sheng asked expectantly.
"You can call me Wu Shi."
The voice replied, "I am the Guardian of the No Beginning Scripture, and your guide."
"Guide? How can I leave the Desolate Domain?"
Gu Sheng asked urgently.
"To leave the Desolate Domain, you must first comprehend the essence of the No Beginning Scripture."
Wu Shi’s voice was calm and profound, "It is not merely a scripture; it is a world, a world filled with endless wisdom."
