As the universe fell apart, a fissure appeared in the spot where the Sun had vanished.
The barrier was coming apart as the broken pieces fell to the ground.
A glowing vast world that exuded a mysterious aura was about to be revealed to them.
The powers of the attacks from the Ancestral Dao Realm Masters of the Imperial Celestial Palace were horrifying. They could easily destroy any world. No one could stop them as they joined forces. It surprised everyone that the barrier could hold on for such a long time.
“Stop it! Who dares to destroy such an important place of the Jing Family!?” someone was heard growling just then.
A big fissure appeared in the void in the distance. Several figures who were covered in a Chaos Mist rushed out of it.
Many men and women followed behind those people. Some of their auras were ancient and vigorous. They were people of the Jing Family, who had rushed to this place.
All of them were shocked and furious.
The man at the head was none other than the current Patriarch of the Jing Family.
Some other old people had followed him to come to this place. They found it inconceivable when they saw what was going on.
They were the Ancient Seniors of the Imperial Celestial Palace who had previously gone to the Land of the Jing Family.
They were rooted to the spot for a long time, unable to come to their senses.
They initially thought that some enemies had come to attack the Jing Family, which was why the Soul Lamps of the Ancestors in the Land of Eternity got disturbed.
Much to their surprise, many of the people who were making a move were familiar to them.
They could even see Ling Yuxian and the others in the distance.
“What’s going on!? Ling Yuxian and the others are supposed to be waiting in Magnificent Sun Ancient Territory!”
“Xiao’er, Xiang’er, why are the two of you here?”
Among the Jing Family members who had arrived, the parents of Jing Xiang and Jing Xiao looked at them in shock. Then, they shifted their attention to Ling Yuxian, who looked slightly fervent and excited. They were bewildered, not knowing why their children and Ling Yuxian were there.
They wondered how these people even found the Land of Eternity of the Jing Family.
The Ancient Seniors of the Imperial Celestial Palace quickly placated the furious members of the Jing Family. At the same time, some people rushed forward to stop the Ancestral Dao Realm Masters from destroying the barrier.
Gu Changge slightly shook his head when he saw that.
Unfortunately for him, these people had arrived right before the barrier was about to be shattered.
He considered whether he should make a move and shatter it.
However, the Ancestral Dao Realm Masters of the Imperial Celestial Palace and the powerful cultivators of the Jing Family were there. As such, he cast the idea away.
The barrier would be demolished sooner or later, so he did not need to be in a hurry.
“What on earth is going on?”
Members of the Jing Family finally realised there were no enemies. Instead, people from the Imperial Celestial Palace were trying to destroy the seal of the portal to the Land of Eternity.
Nevertheless, the Land of Eternity’s existence was a secret within the Jing Family. Many Elders were not even aware of it. How did the people from the Imperial Celestial Palace even find this place?
Ling Yuxian was totally unperturbed. She furrowed her brows, seemingly displeased with the fact that members of the Jing Family had stopped her from saving her Older Sister.
“Is this really not the Land of the Jing Family?” Jing Xiao turned pale, feeling that they had made a huge mistake.
Jing Xiang was dumbfounded as well. Faced with his parents’ inquiring gazes, he hung his head low, pretending that he knew nothing.
“What’s going on?” The Patriarch of the Jing Family drew a deep breath. His expression was dark when he saw that the barrier was almost demolished.
Members of the Jing Family had been guarding this place for countless years, but things went awry when he was the Patriarch.
The Ancient Seniors of the Imperial Celestial Palace hurriedly asked Ling Yuxian what was happening. Ling Yuxian swept a glance over them. After giving it some thought, she decided not to hide anything from them. She told them that the Founder of the Imperial Celestial Palace was trapped there, and she was trying to save the latter.
As for how they found the Land of Eternity, she informed these people that Jing Xiang had told them about it.
Upon hearing that, all the members of the Jing Family were astounded as they turned to look at Jing Xiang.
His parents found it unbelievable as well.
Many Elders of the Jing Family remembered him. His parents had brought him to see many Elders in the past because his Dantian was damaged at a young age. As such, he could not become a cultivator.
Although they had used all sorts of valuable treasures, they still could not solve his problem.
This symptom was extremely rare. Even the Elders of the Jing Family had never seen it before, so they did not have a solution.
However, how did a boy who could not become a cultivator find out about the Land of Eternity’s existence?
Jing Xiang was still trying to hide the fact that he could hear the Early Ancestor’s voice. He intended to fool them by saying that he found the information from the library in the royal palace.
Nevertheless, these people were cultivators whose powers were inscrutable. They could easily cause an earthquake by stomping their feet on the ground. They could naturally tell he was hiding something.
Even his parents scowled and said sternly, “Xiang’er, don’t you dare fool all these Elders. Tell us honestly how you even found out about it. Otherwise, we’ll punish you harshly even though you’re our Son.”
It was Jing Xiang’s first time seeing his parents being so stern. He was fearful while feeling aggrieved deep within.
He already could not become a cultivator to begin with, and his parents were hiding so many things from him.
There was a way to help resolve his curse right behind the portal.
However, he was hesitant deep within. He wondered if the Early Ancestor had lied to him. After all, the Early Ancestor had told him this was where the Land of the Jing Family was located.
Or, perhaps this was originally the Land of the Jing Family, but they moved to a different place at a later time?
When Jing Xiang’s parents saw him falling silent, they were displeased that he was unwilling to tell them the truth.
Upon seeing that, the Patriarch of the Jing Family sighed. Then, he thought of something and shook his head. “Forget it. Since the barrier has been damaged, it means that this incident is bound to happen. You cannot stop it from happening by blaming him. It’s not like the damaged barrier can be restored.”
The others of the Jing Family sighed and fell silent.
Since Ling Yuxian had said that the Founder of the Imperial Celestial Palace was trapped inside, they would surely have to open up the barrier. It was just a matter of time.
Also, after the Founder of the Imperial Celestial Palace was saved, it meant that members of the Jing Family no longer had to guard this place. They would be set free as well. As for how Jing Xiang even found out the Land of Eternity’s location, it no longer mattered.
