272: Chapter 272 Shattered Space, Heavenly Court Reappears

In the deathly silent Void Realm, the myriad things mother qi cauldron emitted brilliant Chaos Immortal light, like an ancient star flowing against the current, steadily hovering in the depths of the darkness.

The Ice Spirit Snow Ape King's mountain-like body was currently curled up extremely obediently at the edge of the cauldron's base.

Its pair of scarlet giant pupils stared fixedly at the man in white standing at the very front with his hands behind his back.

Su Xuanchen's back was not particularly burly, and even carried a hint of laziness and casualness.

But in the eyes of the Snow Ape King, this back seemed to tower infinitely, until it filled the entire world.

In a trance, the Snow Ape King's vision became somewhat blurry.

Its ancient memories, which had been dormant for countless epochs, surged madly at this moment like a dam breaking.

In its extremely distant childhood, it had once been fortunate enough to catch a glimpse of the Ancient Heavenly Court's ancient emperor from afar outside the South Heaven Gate.

That supreme existence who ruled All Heavens and Myriad Realms and suppressed the ages had a back that was just as towering and just as unyielding.

Gradually, Su Xuanchen's casual yet overwhelmingly domineering back actually slowly overlapped with the back of the ancient emperor from its memories who had traversed past and present!

"Hiss—"

The Snow Ape King gave a violent start and snapped back to reality in horror.

It shook its head with great force, trying to shake this absurd illusion out of its mind, but the shock in its heart could not be calmed for a long time, like raging waves.

It had lived for too long and had seen countless so-called Prodigies and overlords.

But it knew better than anyone that the natural, invincible Aura on Su Xuanchen, which treated ancient forbidden zones as nothing, was not something built up by cultivation.

That was the supreme Aura that could only be cultivated by a peerless powerhouse who had never tasted defeat in their life, who had suppressed everything with an invincible posture, and who had trampled all powerful enemies underfoot!

Looking at Su Xuanchen, the Snow Ape King couldn't help but think of the stunning Ancient Empress from back then.

That peerless mistress also possessed such a demeanor that looked down upon the world.

But what was the final outcome? She was viciously besieged by several terrifying powerhouses of the same level, beaten until the galaxy collapsed, and finally fell into the depths of the World Sea, disappearing without a trace, her life or death unknown.

Thinking of this, a deep sense of endless sorrow couldn't help but well up on the Snow Ape King's ferocious ape face.

It slowly lowered its huge head and let out an extremely suppressed whimper.

The myriad things mother qi cauldron continued to advance, its speed increasing rather than decreasing.

Under Su Xuanchen's extremely abnormal control, the group gradually moved away from the core area of the Chaos Void Realm, which was filled with destructive thunder and random rifts.

The deadly pressure of being shredded into nothingness at any moment finally dissipated by more than half.

Ji Luanxi let out a long breath of turbid air, patted her full chest, and her beautiful face was filled with relief.

"We finally got out! The thunder just now was so loud my ears were about to go deaf. I never want to come to this godforsaken place a second time in my life!"

However, before the group's tense nerves could fully relax for even a moment—

"Crack! Crack! Crack!"

A series of extremely harsh, terrifying sounds, like countless giant mirrors shattering at the same time, erupted without warning from the deep darkness ahead.

The relief on Gu Hongchen's face instantly froze.

She stood up abruptly, staring fixedly ahead, her beautiful eyes instantly widening, and even her breathing stopped completely.

As far as the eye could see, the surrounding Void Realm was no longer filled with loose rifts, but had turned into a completely shattered space!

Countless space fragments of varying sizes, like extremely sharp invisible blades, were raging and colliding crazily in this area.

Even the aftershocks generated by the friction of these space storms, when scraping against the mysterious yellow mother qi hanging down from the myriad things mother qi cauldron, erupted with deafening roars, cutting deep white marks visible to the naked eye into the mother qi barrier!

"What… what kind of monster is this!"

Gu Hongchen was so scared that her pretty face turned pale, and her voice was trembling violently.

"The extreme aftershocks of a space storm! With this level of cutting power, even in my prime, if I were to touch even a little bit, my True Immortal Physical Body would be instantly torn to shreds, and even the spiritual power in my body would be completely ground into nothingness!"

The two Snow Apes at the Peak Emperor Realm in the back were so scared that they lay flat on the ground, trembling wildly, not even daring to raise their heads.

Faced with this pure power of space destruction, the Physical Body of the Great Emperor Realm was even more fragile than paper.

Just as Gu Hongchen was terrified and thought Su Xuanchen would order them to temporarily avoid the edge—

Chang Xiyue, who had been sitting quietly on the soft couch, stood up abruptly.

Her face, which was always cold as an immortal and remained unchanged even if Mount Tai collapsed before her, currently showed no trace of fear, but instead revealed a rare, extreme fanaticism and surprise!

She directly ignored the terrifying storm outside that was enough to shred a True Immortal, rushed to the very front of the treasure cauldron in two or three steps, and gripped the edge of the cauldron with both hands.

"Husband!"

Chang Xiyue's voice was out of tune with excitement.

Brilliant light shot out from her cold eyes as she pointed at the violent shattered space and shouted.

"I can sense it! It's the Aura of the Heavenly Court! The extremely pure Origin Aura of the Heavenly Court! It's right in front of this shattered space!"

Hearing Chang Xiyue's extremely certain shout, the Ice Spirit Snow Ape King, who had been trembling on the ground, suddenly raised its huge head as if it had been injected with adrenaline.

It waved its thick arms excitedly, its raspy voice chiming in wildly inside the cauldron.

"Yes, yes, yes! Aunt Xiyue is right!"

The Snow Ape King pointed at the shattered space ahead, which looked like a meat grinder, its excitement causing spit to fly.

"Great Immortal! This is already the outermost edge of the Seal Formation! When the Heavenly Court fell back then, the massive power of the Formation collided violently with the Chaos Void Realm, which is what formed this endless shattered space belt!"

It patted its chest and guaranteed with certainty.

"As long as we pass through this shattered space, we can reach the ruins of the Ancient Heavenly Court! little monkey crawled out of an extremely tiny crack in this storm back then!"

Once these words were spoken—

Gu Hongchen and Ji Luanxi, who had been terrified by the terrifying storm, were instantly shocked by this explosive news.

"We're really here?!" Gu Hongchen gripped the biluo emperor sword tightly, trembling with excitement.

Su Xuanchen's lazy face also rarely set aside its casualness.

Terrifying immortal and demonic qi shot out from his deep eyes, and the corners of his mouth hooked into an extremely arrogant, overwhelmingly domineering cold smile.

"Good! Very good!"

Su Xuanchen couldn't help but laugh out loud, his laughter booming like thunder in the Nine Heavens inside the cauldron.

"After more than half a year of boring trekking, eating dust every day in this godforsaken ice field and Void Realm, I was about to get sick from holding it in! Today, I'm finally going to see the real thing!"

He didn't hesitate at all, his hands suddenly forming an extremely domineering hand Seal.

"Break for me!"

Boom!

The Myriad Tribulations Indestructible Primordial Demon Body and Chaos Immortal Bone within Su Xuanchen erupted without reservation, and the vast immortal and demonic qi poured into the myriad things mother qi cauldron like a bursting river.

The treasure cauldron instantly erupted with Chaos Immortal light ten times more brilliant than before, and billions of strands of mysterious yellow mother qi, like burning ancient divine flames, completely wrapped around the entire cauldron.

Su Xuanchen ignored whatever space storm was ahead, directly urged the treasure cauldron, and like an unstoppable world-destroying meteorite, plunged headlong into the depths of that extremely terrifying shattered space!

"Bang bang bang bang!"

The extremely dense, terrifying cutting sounds instantly drowned out everyone's hearing.

Countless space fragments smashed crazily against the mother qi barrier, erupting with sparks that blinded the eyes.

The treasure cauldron jolted violently in the storm, but that layer of mysterious yellow mother qi was sturdy to the extreme, forcefully ramming open an absolutely safe passage in this meat-grinder-like space!

Just as the treasure cauldron penetrated the core of the storm at an extremely terrifying speed—

Gu Hongchen, who had been staring fixedly ahead, felt her pupils suddenly shrink to the extreme.

"Look, what is that!"

Gu Hongchen let out an extremely sharp exclamation.

Even the hand holding the sword was trembling violently uncontrollably, as she pointed directly at the dark abyss ahead.

This exclamation instantly attracted everyone's attention.

Su Xuanchen, Ji Luanxi, Chang Xiyue, and the three Ice Spirit Snow Apes all looked in the direction Gu Hongchen was pointing.

The next second.

Everyone's breathing stopped completely at this moment.

In the endless dark abyss at the end of the space storm.

Faintly, a vast silhouette, too massive to be described in words, emerged!

It was an endless stretch of ancient palaces!

Even across an extremely long distance, even half-hidden by endless Chaos mist.

But that ancient, vicissitudinous Aura, and the supreme majesty that once suppressed All Heavens and Myriad Realms, still slammed into everyone's Divine Soul like a physical force.

Huge sky-supporting jade pillars were broken in the Void Realm, and the broken glazed tiles emitted extremely faint immortal light.

Magnificent immortal mountains floated between the palaces, and although they had long since dried up, one could still see the extreme glory of the time when ten thousand immortals came to pay homage.

This was the number one power of the ancient times that once ruled All Heavens and Myriad Realms and made all races submit—the Ancient Heavenly Court!

Chang Xiyue stood blankly at the edge of the cauldron.

Looking at the silhouette of the palaces exuding ancient majesty at the end of her vision, her eye sockets instantly turned red, and hot tears, like broken beads, streamed down uncontrollably.

After tens of thousands of years, crossing endless years and life and death.

She had finally returned to this place she was once so familiar with.

However, when that extremely violent excitement and surprise faded, what welled up in Chang Xiyue's heart was an extremely deep, endless sorrow that was enough to drown a person.

Things are still the same, but the people are gone.

The number one power of the ancient times, once glorious to the extreme and respected by all realms, was now like a huge corpse, desolate and hidden in the depths of this deathly silent Void Realm.

The old friends from back then, the immortal generals who fought side by side, the high and mighty Heavenly Emperors, those who fell had fallen, those who disappeared had disappeared.

The entire Heavenly Court no longer had any vitality.

Only a stretch of broken palaces remained, silent in the darkness, silently recounting the past grandeur and current desolation under the blowing of the Chaos storms.
