627: Extrapolating 100,000 years
In the ancient era when Boundary Domains had a long Legacy, few people knew how a Boundary Domain was truly formed.
There were various rumors. Once, a powerful Cultivator believed that the most likely way a Boundary Domain formed was when a powerful Cultivator reached an extremely strong Realm, and a world was generated within his body.
After a powerful Cultivator formed a world within his body, he could incorporate everything external into it, evolving the inner world. Once he Cultivated to the extreme, this inner world could even reopen Heaven and Earth, becoming a truly existing world.
A Boundary Domain is an unformed world, where the owner of this world died unexpectedly, causing the Boundary Domain to fall into a spatial rift and be repelled by this world, existing outside of it.
For this reason, to open the portal to a Boundary Domain, besides specific Boundary Domain portals, one must discover a spatial rift that happens to allow entry.
This Boundary Domain is vast; one can infer its enormous scale just from the boundless sea region.
It also shows that the expert who owned this Boundary Domain back then was incredibly powerful!
At this moment, Shen Tianxing and many Half-step Heaven and Earth King Realm experts were fighting fiercely, and the resulting fluctuations quickly alarmed the experts within the Boundary Domain.
In the depths of the Boundary Domain, a massive palace floated in the air, with endless clouds and mountains below.
The palace was so large that one could not see its end, as if it delved deep into the sky.
Around it, palace-like peaks floated, each with a different appearance; some manifested divine light, while others were dilapidated.
Only the largest palace emanated streaks of golden divine radiance, like a Heavenly Palace, majestic and vast, solemn and mysterious!
Inside the grand hall stood three figures clad in golden robes. The three men had aged faces, indifferent expressions, and slowly opened their eyes, looking towards the outside of the door.
The three aged figures sat cross-legged, as if they had maintained this posture for an unknown number of years.
Now, they finally awakened.
"One hundred thousand years, in a blink of an eye, one hundred thousand years have passed. We have been waiting for the Boundary Domain to be opened, and I didn't expect this day to take so long."
The old man sitting in the center slowly spoke, his tone tinged with a sense of things having changed and the passage of time.
One hundred thousand years, the world has gone through countless Reincarnations.
Even for a Cultivator, it is not just a fleeting moment!
It was too long!
"Indeed, another one hundred thousand years have passed since our last awakening. I feel that the aura of our Soul Heaven Sect has dissipated quite a bit, and our control over the Boundary Domain is gradually being lost."
"If we cannot control the core of the Sect's grand Formation, I fear that before long, all of us from the Sect will be mercilessly devoured by this Boundary Domain!"
The old man on the left also spoke.
His tone revealed a hint of worry.
A Boundary Domain is, after all, something that only Cultivators above the Venerable Level can comprehend, aligning with the Law of Heaven and Earth. If the powerful Cultivator dies and the core of this world cannot be controlled, they too cannot survive within it.
A Boundary Domain transforming into a world naturally requires infinite power. Various Origin Qi, Life Qi, Death Qi, and Soul Power all belong to power and will be devoured by the Boundary Domain.
If these Cultivators are unwilling to abandon everything here, their ultimate fate will be to be devoured!
Unless someone can control the core of this world!
"Elder Heavenly Concealment, one hundred thousand years ago you deduced that one hundred thousand years later would be our opportunity. Now that the time has come, how do you feel?"
Elder Heavenly Concealment was the third among the three figures.
He seemed to be integrated with Heaven and Earth; among the three, if one did not pay close attention, one could barely sense his Qi.
He was the expert of the Soul Heaven Sect most skilled in deduction. Past, present, future—as long as it was a result he deduced, everyone in the Soul Heaven Sect would unconditionally follow it.
Elder Heavenly Concealment heard this, remained silent for a moment, and slowly said, "The answer has actually appeared, but it is unknown upon whom it will be fulfilled."
"One hundred thousand years is long. Now, the Heavenly Dao is chaotic, and the person who will fulfill it has already been obscured by the Heavenly Dao, as if fallen into a mist, making him impossible to find again."
"That is to say, everyone who enters here now could be the one?"
The old man in the middle asked in a deep voice.
He was very dissatisfied with this answer.
However, he also had no choice; the Heavenly Dao rules obscured the Heavenly Dao, and even they could not break through it.
Fortunately, Elder Heavenly Concealment's words were not entirely bad news.
At least they knew that the answer they had waited for one hundred thousand years had appeared!
This was very important.
"When did the Human Race produce such an expert? Has he reached the Half-step Heaven and Earth King Realm? Such a cultivation, even in our ancient era, would make him a powerful Cultivator!"
"Back then, the Human Race rarely had such powerful Cultivators."
The old man on the left said.
If Cultivators in the current Sacred Domain heard the term 'ancient era,' they would probably be extremely shocked!
That was the era closest to ancient times, where the Heavenly Dao Law was openly revealed, and Cultivators' cultivation advanced by leaps and bounds, allowing them to comprehend the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth at any time!
It was the most suitable era for Cultivation, second only to ancient times.
That these people actually survived from the ancient era was truly terrifying!
"The Human Race is uniquely gifted. Although their Physical Body Cultivation is not strong, they are very intelligent. After so many years, the appearance of such an expert is not a rare occurrence."
"Elder Heavenly Concealment, besides the Human Race, there are also the descendants of the Yao Race captured by the Sect Master back then. It wouldn't be them who fulfill it, would it?"
That Elder continued to pose his question.
His words carried a hint of disdain.
They survived from the ancient era, but the Sect's existence dated back to ancient times.
They were naturally not unfamiliar with the Yao Race, and the disdain in their eyes indicated that the origin of their Soul Heaven Sect was even more profound.
And even more noble than the Yao Race!
"What Elder Shenhua said is correct. The Luck of the Yao Race was cut off from ancient times, so naturally, they no longer possess that Heaven-Defying Luck. I deduced one hundred thousand years ago that this time, the fulfiller will be one of these Human Race members."
"It's just that I haven't discovered who it is yet."
Elder Heavenly Concealment shook his head, slowly explaining.
His eyes constantly gleamed with a deep purple light, as if piercing through space, looking into the endless depths.
The facts were already very clear. The other two Elders exchanged glances, and their hearts settled.
"So, we should wait for them to determine a winner before we approach them?"
"Or should we choose one side, support them individually, and once we find the fulfiller, eliminate all the others?"
The Elder on the left suddenly uttered a chilling sound.
For them, besides the fulfiller who could help them obtain the core Formation, all others were invaders!
They all deserved to die!
"It doesn't matter how we treat them. Our people have not all awakened yet, so let's wait and see."
"Allowing them to fight each other until the end will be more beneficial to us!"
