The ancient ancestral hall was located in the depths of the Land of the Jing Family. The passageway was illuminated by Soul Lamps as they extended into the deepest part.

 

They kept moving forward until they saw the Soul Lamp that belonged to the Early Ancestor.

 

It was the size of a washbasin as it hovered in the void. It was surrounded by Grand Runes.

 

Like a congregation of stars, they radiated a bright glow and exuded a magnificent aura.

 

It had been countless years since the Early Ancestor was gone. After he entered the Land of Eternity, he never came out again. His Soul Lamp had been around since that era. Some of the Ancestors who entered the place at a later time were dead. Some of them were just like the Early Ancestor, their flickering Soul Lamps made it impossible for others to know whether they were dead or alive.

 

The Elders of the Jing Family explained the matter to them with helpless expressions.

 

If their Ancestors never entered the Land of Eternity, their own might would have been as great as those of the Supreme Forces in the Primary Hope Civilisation. They felt it was such a shame, but there was nothing they could do about it.

 

When their cultivation reached a certain level, they also had to head to the Land of Eternity. Dying a natural death there was the final outcome for all of them.

 

Naturally, when they brought up this matter, they selectively hid some secrets. They did not tell those from the Imperial Celestial Palace everything.

 

The Ancient Seniors of the Imperial Celestial Palace were flabbergasted. They did not expect the Jing Family to have such a secret.

 

These Ancient Seniors turned solemn and expressed their willingness to help. “Don’t worry. After saving the Founder, we’ll try to help you get rid of this fate. All of you will be free.”

 

They were not foolish. The Jing Family must have a reason for readily agreeing to their request.

 

Upon hearing that, an Elder of the Jing Family finally put on a smile. “Thank you.”

 

Another Elder said with a smile while cupping his fists. “The Land of Eternity is not in the Land of the Jing Family. It’s somewhere else. The place is guarded by layers of Prohibition Arrays. It’s usually hidden. Only when it’s noon can we see the portal with the help of the movements of natural phenomena.”

 

The Ancient Seniors of the Imperial Celestial Palace nodded and kept that in mind.

 

Considering their current power, they still could not save the Founder. They had to discuss the matter with the other Ancient Seniors, especially the descendant, Ling Yuxian.

 

She was supposed to be in Magnificent Sun Ancient Territory, waiting to receive news from them.

 

Just as the Ancient Seniors of the Imperial Celestial Palace were ready to leave and return to their Sect, the Soul Lamps in the ancestral hall, which were silently hovering in the void, suddenly started trembling for no reason. Like dried leaves facing a massive wave, they would be drowned by an invisible force at any moment.

 

[What’s going on?] The expressions of the Jing Family members changed drastically when they saw that.

 

The oldest members of the Jing Family could not believe their eyes. They were flabbergasted.

 

“What’s happening? Why are the Soul Lamps of the Ancestors trembling all of a sudden? Has something happened at the Land of Eternity?”

 

One of them donned a dark expression and said solemnly, “No. I suppose outsiders are approaching the Land of Eternity and are trying to open up its gate. The Ancestors inside are shocked by the force coming from the outside, which is why they’re sending us a signal.”

 

The expressions of the Ancient Seniors of the Imperial Celestial Palace changed when they heard that.

 

Who would suddenly make a move against the Land of Eternity at this point, right?

 

Furthermore, it was a secret that only a small number of Jing Family members were aware of. Even they, Ancient Seniors of the Imperial Celestial Palace, had just found out about it.

 

“Why is it happening now? Has something unexpected happened? The Soul Lamps of the Ancestors have turned dim.”

 

Members of the Jing Family were astounded as they looked at the flickering Soul Lamps. Many Soul Lamps had fallen into a worse state as though the lights would go out at any moment.

 

A myriad of expressions came over the Elder from the Jing Family who had spoken earlier. Then, he solemnly said, “Have the other Forces discovered the existence of the Land of Eternity? Back then, the Early Ancestor said that an inauspicious object that has been corroded by darkness has been sealed there. If the other Forces find out about it, it’ll cause endless slaughters and a violent contest.”

 

At this point, they did not have time for anything else. They rushed out of the ancestral hall and summoned all the core members before rushing towards the Land of Eternity.

 

The Ancient Seniors could not leave the Land of the Jing Family at this point. They could only follow behind them.

 

They were shocked as well, wondering who would try to open up the gate to the Land of Eternity, causing the Soul Lamps of the Jing Family’s Ancestors to be impacted.

 

Were some other forces also paying attention to this matter other than the Imperial Celestial Palace? Also, what did the old man from the Jing Family mean when he said that an inauspicious thing that had been corroded by darkness had been sealed in the Land of Eternity?

 

Meanwhile, outside the Land of the Jing Family, a light column that extended into the sky appeared in the Magnificent Sun Ancient Territory. It was like the primordial Divine Light that penetrated Heaven and Earth. Not only was it colossal, but it also exuded an intimidating aura.

 

Countless people began trembled in fear. Astonished deep within, they fell on their knees when faced with the aura.

 

They felt like it was doomsday as if the Sun was about to be destroyed.

 

The River of Time showed up, but it soon evaporated.

 

All the World Principles were shattered into pieces. In the depths of the Star Territory, Grand Runes that radiated from the ancient battleships seemed to have connected with the Great Dao.

 

Figures that looked like deities waved their hands and fully activated their powers. Grand Runes the size of stars appeared. They destroyed Chaos and the universe before flying forward while flickering.

 

These people all had powerful auras, and they were surrounded in the Fragments of Time. It was as though they had stepped out of the River of Time.

 

These were all Dao Realm experts. Every one of them was ridiculously powerful. Each of them could establish a Sect and take on billions of Disciples. As they joined forces, they could destroy any enemy in the world.

 

The dazzling light illuminated all the skies. The Dao Realm experts in the other Great Universes and worlds were shocked as they looked in that direction.

 

Some guessed that the Beast Court and the Land of Celestial Suffering might have just launched a full-scale war. Otherwise, why would so many Dao Realm expertws make a move at the same time?

 

Nevertheless, the Beast Court or Land of Celestial Suffering was not in that direction. It was in the territory of the Imperial Celestial Palace.
