Chapter 1059: Opening the Sky

The sound of the Great Dao echoed between heaven and earth. Countless ancient runes appeared around the four ancient Immortals. These runes were the carriers of their Dao Fruits.

The ancient runes flickered and merged into the Land of No Spirit, touching the seal at the bottom.

The world seal was created by the four ancient Immortals using their respective Dao Fruits.

The Yin-Yang Dao Fruit used Yin and Yang energies as the base of the barrier.

The Time Dao Fruit made time flow backward; after the barrier was broken, time would flow backward to repair the barrier.

The Survival of the Fittest Dao Fruit made the barrier suffer no damage from the same attack.

The Tribulation-Responding Dao Fruit attached the "Immeasurable Tribulation" to the barrier. The Immeasurable Tribulation was endless and had no pattern, so it could only be broken by force.

The four Dao Fruit abilities were intertwined, so even if the four of them made a move at the same time, they couldn't break it.

Only by having the four of them drive the Dao Fruits to weaken the barrier, and then using the Immortal Fairy's infinite self-destruction, could they break the seal.

"It's not enough, it's still a little bit off!" the Immortal of Immortal Immortal Jiu Chong said in a deep voice.

"But this is already our full strength!" The Immortal Qilin was unwilling. They had tried their best, and could they only do this much?

It was just a little bit off, just a little bit!

The Immortal of Time said nothing, just kept driving the runes to crack the seal.

Their voices were not loud, but very sacred, with the heaviness of history, and through the heavenly tribulation, the conversation spread throughout the entire Cultivation Realm.

The entire Cultivation Realm felt the frustration of the four ancient Immortals.

The Immortal Ying Ying Tian slowly closed his eyes, as if he had made up his mind: "No, this is not our full strength. There is one last method!"

The other three Immortals were shocked: "You mean, using the Immortal body to strike the seal?!"

The Immortal Ying Ying Tian nodded: "Yes, this is the only method left!"

"But if we do this, we will..."

"There are not so many 'buts'!"

The four ancient Immortals finally reached a consensus. They flew to the four sides of the Land of No Spirit and suddenly self-destructed. People's hearts tightened.

After the self-destruction, the four ancient Immortals were covered in Immortal blood, looking extremely miserable.

"It's not enough, continue!" They gritted their teeth and continued to self-destruct.

People were moved, shocked by this scene and unable to speak. The four ancient Immortals had sacrificed too much to break the seal.

Some people couldn't help but shed tears when they saw this.

The sound of the Great Dao spreading throughout the Cultivation Realm seemed exceptionally sad at this moment.

Lu Yang was also moved. The acting skills of the four ancient Immortals were truly superb.

To break the seal, it required Immortal self-destruction on the basis of weakening the seal.

So the four, including the Immortal Ying Ying Tian, asked the Immortal Fairy to temporarily attach the "Immortal State" to them. They pretended to hit the seal and create an explosion, which was used to cover up the truth of their continuous self-destruction.

Don't look at the four of them covered in Immortal blood; in fact, they didn't have a single injury.

The only real thing in this was their Immortal blood. Lu Yang heard that this was something they cut their wounds and let out from their own bodies at the beginning of the plan.

However, there was a small problem here. Lu Yang wanted to ask, why did the Immortal Ying Ying Tian and the Immortal of Time bleed?

One had an Immortal Gold body, and the other had a Faith Golden body. Did they have a single drop of blood?

Yun Zhi explained on the side: "Their Immortal blood was borrowed from the Immortal of Immortal Immortal Jiu Chong and the Immortal Qilin."

Lu Yang: "..."

Truly good brothers who are close as hands and feet, even borrowing this kind of thing.

Boom—

With the last self-destruction, the four ancient Immortals were exhausted, covered in wounds, and didn't even have the strength to fly, falling to the ground powerlessly.

But people's attention was not on the four ancient Immortals.

Because the seal of the Land of No Spirit was broken.

Crack—crack—

The plate of the Land of No Spirit fractured, constantly collapsing, gradually separating from the surrounding four continents, no longer in contact.

"Father, it's late at night, time to sleep." A young man brought tea to the high platform. His father was the Supervisor of the Imperial Observatory.

This was the location of the Imperial Observatory of the Baima Dynasty, the tallest building in the Baima Dynasty, for the convenience of observing celestial phenomena, calculating solar terms, and formulating calendars.

The Supervisor yawned: "Has it reached this time already?"

"Father, you often say that the movement of stars has patterns to follow. Our Imperial Observatory has a thousand-year history and has long summarized the patterns of star movement. Why not sleep late at night and observe celestial phenomena?" The young man complained a little. If his father didn't sleep, it wasn't convenient for him to sleep either.

Please... collect... 6... 9... books... bar...!

"When I was young, I often observed celestial phenomena at this time; I'm used to it." The Supervisor had a son in his old age and treasured this son very much.

"But what you said is also right. Our Imperial Observatory has already mastered the patterns of star movement, so there's no need to be so hard-working."

"Especially this mysterious land above our heads, eternal and unchanging. No matter how much observation, it's useless."

The Supervisor smiled and pointed to the boundless world of gods above, full of mysterious legends.

Since the birth of civilization on this planet, that world above had been floating in the sky. Many stars were as small as dust in front of that continent.

Successive dynasties, in order to maintain orthodoxy, all used belief in the God Continent to label orthodoxy.

In their legends, there were enlightened masters who could ascend to the Immortal Realm in broad daylight, which was the world of gods.

"Although the position of Supervisor will be yours sooner or later, after all, in the entire Baima Dynasty, only we master the patterns of stars, but you can't be too slack. The star patterns I taught you must be firmly remembered; this is our foundation."

"For example, in recent years, the sea level has risen, flooding the towns on the shore. When His Majesty asked our Imperial Observatory for the reason, we said it was because His Majesty's position was not righteous, causing heaven's anger and people's resentment. Do you think His Majesty believes what we say?"

The Supervisor looked at the sky again, looking at the world that could not see the end, the corners of his mouth raised, smiling contemptuously: "As for this world of gods, it's just a legend without any basis."

"There are no gods in this world at all. The gods in the legends are just the ignorance of the ancients, mistaking martial artists for gods and passing on errors."

A martial artist can lift a thousand-jin stone, and it is perfectly normal for them to be mistaken for an immortal.

The Imperial Astronomer stretches his neck, preparing to sleep, when he notices his son looking up, staring blankly at the sky.

The Imperial Astronomer feels a bit of relief; his son is good for nothing and only has a half-baked understanding of the laws of the stars and their corresponding meanings, so he is very worried about his future.

Now that his son is interested in celestial phenomena, it can be considered a return to the right path.

The Imperial Astronomer pats his son's shoulder with relief: "Alright, stop looking, go to sleep. If you really want to see, get a good night's sleep during the day and watch slowly at night."

The son does not answer; his body is like a puppet, pointing at the sky with extreme stiffness.

The Imperial Astronomer looks up, scared so badly he falls onto the ground, covering his heart, his upper and lower teeth chattering.

That eternal world of gods is shaking and shattering, and immediately after, blinding light shoots out from the cracks.

Merely the light revealed from the cracks turns their White Horse Dynasty from night into day, overturning the yin and yang of the universe.

A thousand years of heritage, the experience passed down through generations of the Imperial Astronomical Bureau, turns to nothing in this moment.

The Imperial Astronomer's mind goes blank; he doesn't even realize what he is saying, like someone talking in a dream.

"The world of gods... has opened..."
