373: Chapter 373 The Supreme Treasure Awakens! The Jade Pool Holy Land is About to Collapse!

"Rumble!"

At this moment, the entire Yaochi Holy Land began to shake violently!

No, it wasn't shaking!

It was a vibration!

It was the kind of terrifying vibration as if the heavens were collapsing and the earth was rending, like the coming of doomsday!

The stars above the Nine Heavens were trembling, and the Earth's Dragon Veins let out an overwhelmed wail!

Above the Holy Land, the Sect-Protecting Grand Array, set up by successive generations of ancestors and claimed to be eternally immortal...

...under the impact of this domineering and peerless silver divine light, could not even hold out for a single breath, shattering inch by inch like an ice sculpture in the sunlight with a "crack, crack" sound!

Countless Elders who were carefully controlling the heat in the Alchemy Pavilion watched helplessly as precious Pill Furnaces instantly exploded into powder; countless Disciples who were preaching the Dao on the Martial Arts Field were swallowed by the abyss that suddenly cracked open beneath their feet; inside the Spirit Beast Garden, all the usually proud Spirit Beasts prostrated themselves on the ground, letting out the most mournful cries toward the direction of the Forbidden Area!

"What's going on?!"

"Is the Earth Dragon turning over? No, that's not right! The Sect-Protecting Grand Array has shattered! Heavens, what is that light?!"

"Enemy attack! A peerless powerhouse is attacking us!"

"Quick! Go and get the Holy Master!"

The entire Yaochi Holy Land instantly turned into a mess.

Countless figures rose into the sky in disarray from their respective Immortal Caves, looking in utter horror at the Sect-Protecting Grand Array above the firmament, which looked like shattered colored glass, and at the terrifying energy fluctuations constantly coming from the core of the Forbidden Area, enough to make even a Great Saint tremble with fear and freeze their Divine Soul.

Everyone's faces were filled with terror and confusion.

What on earth happened?

At this moment, inside the world of the Yaochi Heart Sea at the center of the storm.

The Yaochi Holy Master was completely dumbfounded.

She floated blankly in mid-air, looking at this scene of world-shaking destruction, her mind a complete blank.

She discovered with horror that the Yaochi Heart Sea, which was originally just boiling, now seemed to be completely cooked!

Countless fragments of time and space, like the most violent oceanic storm, swirled up frantically from the depths of the Heart Sea!

The Law of Space of the entire Heart Sea world was collapsing inch by inch at a speed visible to the naked eye, turning into the most primitive Chaos!

And the source of all this was her precious Disciple, who was wrapped in the center of a silver light cocoon of extreme density!

"This... what power is this?!"

The Yaochi Holy Master's voice was trembling.

She subconsciously activated her Holy Master's Authority, trying to draw upon the power of the Yaochi Heart Sea to suppress that rampaging silver divine light.

However, as soon her Divine Thought touched that silver light cocoon, an indescribable absolute suppression from the deepest level of life hierarchy surged back in a violent backlash!

"Pfft!"

The Yaochi Holy Master felt like she had been struck by lightning; she suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, her face turning pale instantly.

She was horrified to find that her innate connection with the Yaochi Heart Sea had been forcibly severed by that silver power!

She could feel that the aura emanating from the silver light cocoon and the aura of the Yaochi Heart Sea were actually... from the same source!

No, that's not right!

They weren't from the same source!

Rather... the aura within that silver light cocoon was older, purer, and more noble than the aura of the Yaochi Heart Sea!

It was like... a monarch and a subject!

An utterly absurd thought uncontrollably surfaced in the Yaochi Holy Master's mind.

The Yaochi Heart Sea was not just an ordinary body of water.

According to the School's oldest secret records, it was actually a Supreme Treasure that fell from the sky five million years ago, of unknown grade and unpredictable power!

The Ancestral Master who founded the Yaochi Holy Land was only able to establish the sect here and pass down the Legacy for ages because she had, by a stroke of luck, obtained partial recognition from this Supreme Treasure.

One could say that the Yaochi Heart Sea was the very root of the entire Yaochi Holy Land!

And now, this Supreme Treasure that had been slumbering for millions of years and which even successive Holy Masters could not control, was... mysteriously waking up completely!

Furthermore, like a subject who had been wandering for many years and finally met their true monarch, it was frantically offering up everything it had!

"No... don't..."

The Yaochi Holy Master let out a desperate cry.

She finally understood what was about to happen.

At the same time.

Ling Qingzhu, who was wrapped inside the silver light cocoon, did not feel any pain or discomfort.

On the contrary.

She felt better than ever before.

She felt as if she had returned to the warmest womb, embraced by the gentlest power in the world.

Countless ultimate Profound Truths regarding the Great Dao of Time and Space were no longer obscure runes, but turned into the most intuitive images, frantically imprinting themselves deep within her Divine Soul.

She could "see" the flow of time and "touch" the veins of space.

In a daze, she even saw a figure in white, lazily lying on a rocking chair, raising a middle finger to the sky... What she didn't know was...

The fragment of the book of time and space deep within her Sea of Consciousness was frantically devouring and assimilating the Origin of the entire Yaochi Heart Sea in a domineering and irrational manner!

Her existence was completely taking this Supreme Treasure for her own!

Outside.

The tens of thousands of Disciples and Elders of the Yaochi Holy Land had all gathered outside the Forbidden Area.

Each of them was pale, looking with terrified eyes at the silver pillar of light piercing through the heavens and earth within the Forbidden Area, watching Immortal Mountains collapse in the aftershocks, and the Void Realm shatter like a mirror.

The sky was falling.

It was over.

The Yaochi Holy Land was going to perish!
