Chapter 1140 – Opening Ancestral Court
Ancestral Court.
Vast and boundless, with ancient divine mountains and treasures scattered everywhere. Any random item is sufficient to make the outside world lose its mind yet this place is extremely desolate. There were only huge void beasts lurking about in this ancient and primordial world: residing, reproducing, killing, and devouring everything in sight.
On this day, all the void beasts suddenly sensed something within their hearts and raised their heads to look towards the sky; a crack has formed in the sky.
Meanwhile in the 19th Void, the void beast mother opened her eyes to gaze at the crack in the sky.
Besides her were densely packed with an absurd amount of void beast eggs, numbering in the ten millions, which filled the entire 19th Void.
“Sha sha sha-”
The bones of the void beast mother trembled while countless void beasts became excited. They rose into the sky and rushed towards the crack.
The crack grew larger and larger until it stopped after reaching a certain size. From Ancestral Court it was now possible to see the bright starry sky and the vibrant world outside.
Like a swarm of locusts, the densely packed void beasts flew towards the crack; a soul-stirring roar came from their mouth. As the first void beast rushed into the crack and tried to fly out of Ancestral Court, its corporeal body suddenly exploded and its flesh melted.
In a frenzy, more and more void beasts threw themselves into the crack. Their bodies bloomed one by one into beautiful flowers made of blood creating a gorgeous sight.
In just a short moment, tens of thousands of void beasts have already died in the crack; their blood dyed the crack scarlet.
From outside, Ancestral Court seemed like a bloody wound inflicted onto the universe.
Suddenly from the depth of the void, the void beast mother let out a low and powerful roar. The other void beasts stopped rushing into the crack and instead sprawled around it: pushing the crack wider with their muscles and claws.
However, this seal was made by the ancient gods gathering all their powers back in the antiquity era. It used the back sides of each world as the seal and wasn’t something that can be broken by them![2]
In Celestial Heavens, Celestial Venerable Xiao’s face sunk.
Celestial Heavens was an integral part in sealing Ancestral Court. With only him alone, he cannot complete the seal again, especially when many ancient gods were now dead or injured. Even if this wasn’t the case, Heaven Duke and Earth Count would not work together with him again.
With the loosening of Ancestral Court’s seal, there was no possibility of fixing it anymore.
The only thing he can do is to prevent the damage spreading further.
However, if Ancestral Court’s seal was broken, the people of the world would naturally discover its location, and this buried history would gradually surface in the eyes of the people.
“Other than its history, there’s also a great terror: one that can destroy the world. I’m afraid it will leak out from Ancestral Court,” he thought to himself.
Almost simultaneously in the Great Void, Celestial Heavens’ army of gods and devils also felt that peculiar rumble. The marching army, who were preparing to attack the Great Void, turned their heads to look towards Celestial Heavens.
It is impossible to see Celestial Heavens from the Great Void but they can feel it.
Celestial Venerable Hong’s heart stirred slightly, showing a slight smile. He said solemnly, “Celestial Heavens changed. Everyone, this must be caused by Founding Emperor’s rebellious attack against Celestial Heavens; not to be left unchecked! I’ll head back and take a look.”
God Emperor Lang Xuan, Divine King Zu, and the rest couldn’t help but be astonished. The Celestial Venerables who were most proactive in attacking the Great Void, apart from Celestial Venerable Huo, was Celestial Venerable Hong. And yet, why was Celestial Venerable Hong so eager to rush back now that they were in the Great Void?
Celestial Venerable Gong said indifferently, “I’ll return as well. Dao friend Hong, let’s go together.”
Celestial Venerable Hong’s expression changed slightly; he was not willing to travel together with her. He laughed dryly and suddenly escaped, becoming a beam of light.
