Chapter 1270

"Ah? Why?" Lu Yang wondered.

But what puzzled him even more was that this sentence seemed to have been said by someone just now.

"How do you evaluate the Battle of Zhongshan Commandery?"

"Unmatched in ancient and modern times."

From ancient times to the present, when discussing the scale of warfare and intensity of combat, the Battle of Zhongshan Commandery is undoubtedly ranked first.

"If there were no barrier formed by the power of the nation's fortune, what do you think the consequences of the Battle of Zhongshan Commandery would be?"

Lu Yang froze for a moment—this was something he had never considered—then he shivered involuntarily.

Undoubtedly, this would surely be a battle where living beings suffer terribly!

From the battle between the immortal maiden and the gray bean sprout, one can see the clue: they fought from the demon realm all the way to the land without spirits, then turned back; saying they traversed heaven and earth is no exaggeration.

The Battle of Zhongshan Commandery was even larger in scale; without the barrier blocking it, wherever the battle took place, that place would be littered with casualties.

"Yao Sheng is merely a puppet created by the mastermind behind the scenes, showing that the true strength of the mastermind behind the scenes is even greater."

"The Battle of Zhongshan Commandery consumed more than half of the accumulated national fortune's power; if I were to fight the true mastermind behind the scenes, this cultivation realm would surely be destroyed in an instant."

"This world cannot withstand such a level of battle; our battlefield can only be outside the box world."

……

Inside Jiu Feng Peak, the task of printing the newspaper came down, and the content on the newspaper shocked them greatly—the forces of Great Qian and Great Yu had temporarily ceased hostilities.

"Is this about to unseal the world's seal?"

The Celestial Emperor of the Central Heaven revealed an envious gaze; everything he did was to unseal the seal and go out to see the outside world.

As it turns out, now it's good—the seal is about to be unsealed, but he has been locked up.

"What luck." The Central Heaven Emperor didn't know whether to cry or laugh.

"Look on the bright side—back when Yao Sheng stormed into the immortal palace, he told us the clue to the Years Dao Fruit was in the Wen Dao Sect, and he also said that in unsealing the seal, his purpose was the same as ours." Si Ming comforted.

"We are at least luckier than that Yao Sheng—we can at least witness the process of unsealing the seal, whereas he didn't even get to see it."

"That's also true." The Central Heaven Emperor nodded.

……

With the publication of the new edition of the Cultivation Weekly, the entire cultivation realm was discussing this matter.

"The Four Ancient Immortals have all appeared?! They want to unseal the world's seal?!"

The Four Ancient Immortals are synonymous with antiquity and mystery; since the end of antiquity, over three hundred thousand years have passed, and countless people have painstakingly searched for their immortal traces, yet all have failed without exception.

Only Ying Tian Xian appeared after Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou completed their tribulation crossing.

I never expected that now the other three immortals would all appear at once!

"But what does unsealing the box world's seal mean? Where is the box world?" Ordinary people and the vast majority of cultivators spend their entire lives never leaving their commandery or province, and do not know what the true form of the world is.

In their doubt, the text on the newspaper changed, forming a pattern of a transparent cube, and on the six faces of the cube, it marked where is Great Xia, where is the demon realm, where is the Eastern Sea...

These people felt as if the clouds had parted to reveal the sun, and only then did they understand that the world is like this.

Looking at the meaning on the newspaper, has the world map become larger?

"I thought the world was already big enough, but I didn't expect there to be another world beyond the world."

"But this seems to have nothing to do with us, right?"

The world map getting bigger is just getting bigger—what does it have to do with them?

What shocked them most, however, was still the appearance of the Four Ancient Immortals.

Those cultivators who know the true form of the world and ancient history, especially those who can traverse the void with their physical bodies and wander through the universe, are extremely excited and stirred.

Spending lavishly, booking entire wine towers and brothels—there are not a few of them.

Some brothel patrons, upon hearing this news, directly came out of their rooms, found their neighbors, and chatted excitedly.

The family elders, when still, think of moving, and give rise to the desire to go outside and take a look.

"I never expected that we would be fortunate enough to witness the day the box world opens!"

"Everyone says the great age has arrived, restoring the ancient ways—this must certainly be a corner of the great age's arrival!"

"What exactly is the outside world like?"

"Hard to say, but I fear the outside world is full of dangers."

"Why do you say that?"

"You think—our world is only this big a place; how many cultivators have come out, how many half-immortals and immortals?"

"According to ancient records, the outside world is vast and boundless; cultivators must be even more numerous—perhaps even those of our level, the Unity Stage cultivators, could be encountered casually!"

"In my opinion, when the day comes to unseal the seal, we might as well go together to the outside world, so we can look out for each other."

"Makes sense."

In a one-by-one look, no mistakes in the version!

"The imperial court will surely dispatch an inspection team to go outside for inspection—too bad we are not court officials; otherwise, we would be safer."

"Or we could pray to the Four Ancient Immortals, hoping we won't encounter cultivators far stronger than us when we go out."

The Landing Gold Money Merchant Guild then followed suit and launched personal accident insurance for outside world exploration.

……

Xia Di, Ming Yu Zhuchi, Zhu Tian, Old Dragon Emperor, and the retired Snow Emperor—five representatives of the major powers—discussed the unsealing of the world's seal in detail.

Behind them, Jiang Ping An, the Years Immortal, Jiang Lian Li, Ao Ling, and the Ninth Immortal were hands-off managers, knowing only half about their own forces' situations; to discuss detailed matters, they still needed these true managers to step forward.

The appearance of the Snow Emperor made the other four extremely surprised—no one had heard that there was a Snow Emperor in the far north.

"Snow Emperor, are you the ruler of the far north?"

The Snow Emperor sighed, having enjoyed retirement for only two days before being summoned by the Ninth Immortal to attend a meeting: "Not entirely accurate, I suppose—we in that place all thought I was a legend, not a true person."

"Then..."

"But don't worry, I'm the strongest in our extreme north. Once the meeting ends, I'll definitely implement the results in the extreme north. If those little brats don't believe me, I don't mind letting them know what it means for the Snow Emperor to manifest his power."

The Snow Emperor was also an invincible force in his youth, sweeping through the extreme north, but after becoming a half-immortal, he gradually restrained his nature.

Everyone exchanged glances, but since the Snow Emperor had spoken to this extent, it seemed there was no need to worry about the cultivators of the extreme north not listening.

Xia Di spoke first: "Once the Spiritless Land is opened, there will surely be countless cultivators going out, which definitely won't work—it's unfavorable for management. I think we should set up a massive formation to verify cultivators' identities and inspect the items they carry; entering and leaving the world must pass through this formation."

However, Xia Di's remarks left everyone present somewhat embarrassed, especially the Old Dragon Emperor and the Snow Emperor, who were the most embarrassed.

"Why isn't anyone speaking?"

"Uh, our jurisdiction seems to have never registered cultivators' identities."

The prerequisite for verifying cultivators' identities is knowing who they are, but the Eastern Sea and the extreme north obviously lack this condition.

The situation in the Demon Realm is slightly better, but Zhu Tian hasn't even fully counted who among the demon race resides there.

"So what we need to do first is count all cultivators' identities and produce identity certificates?" Xia Di sighed, realizing the preparations were more than he imagined.

"Actually, there's a way to save time." The Snow Emperor thought of a good idea.

"What method?"

"We ask the Senior of Time Immortal to stop time. When we go door-to-door to register identities, whoever we register will be allowed to act in the state of stopped time, and after registration, we let them stop acting."

"This way, not to mention registering the identities of all cultivators worldwide, even registering the identities of all cultivators and mortals worldwide would take less than a second."
