Jing Xiang’s parents were rooted to the spot upon hearing the ancient secret of the Jing Family from him. They could not come to their senses for a long time.

 

Jing Xiao’s mouth widened in disbelief as well.

 

“Xiang’er, is everything you’ve told us true?” Jing Xiang’s Mother still could not believe it. The matter was too shocking and preposterous.

 

The so-called Land of Eternity of the Jing Family was a Forbidden Area where the Early Ancestor was sealed.

 

The Early Ancestor who had founded the Jing Family was confined to that place by his descendants, becoming a source of nourishment for their cultivation.

 

Jing Xiang’s parents even suspected that he might have been fooled.

 

They hurriedly looked around to ensure there were no other members nearby before letting out a breath of relief. Their expressions turned solemn.

 

Jing Xiang naturally would not dare to hide anything from them. He told them that he could hear a particular voice at noon and everything the person who claimed to be the Early Ancestor of the Jing Family had told him.

 

“I see.”

 

His parents finally came to their senses. Jing Xiang indeed frequently spaced out during that period, and they now knew the reason.

 

Despite that, they still could not accept this. If everything Jing Xiang had said was true, it would completely change their understanding of the Jing Family.

 

Beneath the glory of the Jing Family was a dark past like this. Was the Patriarch hiding such a secret from them for all this time?

 

At that moment, Jing Xiang’s parents fell silent.

 

“Father, Mother, before we find out if this is true, I hope you’ll keep it a secret for my sake,” Jing Xiang said solemnly. He was not foolish. He understood what this meant for the Jing Family if word got out.

 

“Don’t worry, Xiang’er. We won’t tell anyone else.” His parents nodded with serious expressions.

 

Jing Xiao was astounded and worried. She did not expect to hear such a shocking secret from her Older Brother.

 

The four of them remained silent.

 

Soon, their parents received news from the other members that they had found a tower in the depths of this world where the auras of the Ancestors were detected. Upon learning that, their parents suppressed their doubts and anxiety. They quickly calmed themselves down and led their children to that place.

 

They could only hope that what Jing Xiang had said was false. Otherwise, the consequences would be dreadful.

 

Jing Xiang remained silent by his parents’ side.

 

Since he came to this world, he had been trying to contact the person who claimed to be the Early Ancestor of the Jing Family in his mind.

 

However, the other party seemed to have vanished into thin air, so he never received any response.

 

When he saw how solemn his parents were, he knew he was involved in an astonishing secret. If he was not careful, he would lose his life.

 

Meanwhile, in another area of this world, Ling Yuxian turned into a Divine Light and flew across the sky, trying to detect her Older Sister’s aura and find the place where she was.

 

Behind her were the Elders of the Imperial Celestial Palace. They dare not be negligent.

 

[Where is he?] Ling Yuxian did not forget to look back and locate Gu Changge.

 

On their way to Magnificent Sun Ancient Territory, she had been anxious because of Gu Changge.

 

Although she did not contact her Older Sister or sense anything during the journey, she had a feeling that her Older Sister was wary of Gu Changge.

 

It was such a strange feeling that it could not be explained.

 

Was it because her Older Sister had joined forces with the others to snatch the Gate of Eternity which belonged to Gu Changge? This caused Gu Changge to fall into reincarnation and be reborn. Just like herself, he became a cultivator and eventually returned to the pinnacle.

 

Was her Older Sister worried that when Gu Changge found out about it, he would retaliate against her and harm her?

 

That was the speculation Ling Yuxian had formed.

 

She did not have a choice, though. She had to appease Gu Changge first. If he found out that the Founder of the Imperial Celestial Palace was one of the enemies who had snatched his Gate of Eternity, he would surely stop them from saving the Founder.

 

There was another thing Ling Yuxian was worried about. Gu Changge’s target might not be the Gate of Eternity.

 

In that case, all her speculation and doubts would be invalidated. Moreover, she had a feeling that Gu Changge was aware of many things. It was as though he had been on top of everything since the beginning. That was why she was anxious deep within.

 

[He’s also in the Land of Eternity, but why isn’t he following me? Where is he? Is he with the people of the Jing Family?]

 

When Ling Yuxian realised that Gu Changge was not among the people behind her and she felt uneasy.

 

Anyway, she did not have time to think deeply about it. She could only hope to find the place where her Older Sister was as quickly as possible.

 

There was a special connection between them, so she could faintly locate her Older Sister. Furthermore, she knew that her Older Sister was aware of her presence and trying to contact her.

 

After countless years, the two Sisters were finally about to reunite. She could hardly conceal her elation and excitement.

 

She had not retrieved all her memories, but the images of the two of them cultivating their powers, travelling around, and comprehending the Great Dao together sprang into her mind.

 

The road to Immortality was full of danger and obstacles. They were always by each other’s sides. For countless years, they had experienced all sorts of Tribulations. They eventually made a name for themselves in the Boundless Expanse.

 

She was less talented than her Older Sister. Most of the time, she relied on her Older Sister to look for resources to help with her cultivation.

 

After the epic battle, if not for the fact that her Older Sister wanted to save her and restore her Soul, she would not have taken a huge risk to snatch the Gate of Eternity despite her injury.

 

She was the reason that her Older Sister ended up in this state, which was why she had been feeling guilty. She was eager to find her Older Sister and set her free.

 

After they reunited, they could comprehend the Great Dao together and reach the pinnacle again. They would be some of the most powerful cultivators in the Boundless Expanse.

 

The sky in the Land of Eternity was full of grey clouds. The entire world was gloomy and desolate.

 

The people of the Jing Family soon arrived at the centre of the depths where the tower with eighteen floors was located.
