796 The Immortal End Day

Emperor Wu You was too powerful and could not be stopped at all. Mo Qingge had already given it her all, even risking activating the power of the Massacre Demonic Body.

The black hole passageway slowly closed and finally disappeared. Emperor Wu You once again returned to the Underworld. No one could stop him.

Mo Qingge wiped the blood off the corner of her mouth. The crimson Qi on her body gradually subsided. Her killing intent slowly receded and finally returned to normal. The only sign of what she had gone through was the fresh bloodstains on her pure white dress.

Fifteen minutes later, two beams of light entered the cleft space. It was Mo Wen and Mo Qingtian.

"You are too late." Mo Qingge shook her head, knowing why the two of them had come.

Mo Wen's face instantly turned pale. Obviously, Emperor Wu You had already returned to the Underworld, disappearing along with Shen Jing.

"Sister, this is most likely a serious issue," Mo Qingtian said with a serious expression. If Emperor Wu You came to the Source World and performed some shocking feat or even destroyed their Huatian Palace, he could still comprehend it. However, to go to all this effort just to kidnap an ordinary woman seemed somewhat bizarre.

"We can't stay here for long. The cleft space is about to collapse. We can discuss this after we are out of here." Mo Qingge waved her hand and released a beam of white light. It enveloped Mo Wen and Mo Qingtian. The next moment, the three of them instantly disappeared from their original spots.

Not long after Mo Wen and the others left, huge rumbling sounds sounded in the entire cleft space. After a short while, it was completely consumed by endless darkness.

They were transported to the Taihang Mountains. On a mountain peak that was three thousand meters tall, the three of them stood on a rugged area of rock. Before their eyes was an endless sea of clouds, surging and churning.

"You seem to have a lot of questions on your mind. Ask away." Mo Qingge looked expressionlessly towards the horizon of the sea of cloud. Beside her stood Mo Wen and Mo Qingtian. Obviously, she was speaking to Mo Wen.

"Why did Emperor Wu You kidnap Shen Jing?" Mo Wen took a deep breath. The thing he most wanted to know, and the thing he did not understand at all, was why Emperor Wu You, a dignified figure of the Underworld, would kidnap a mortal woman like Shen Jing.

Mo Qingge shook her head. "You've asked the wrong person. Most likely only Emperor Wu You himself knows." She also wanted to know why Emperor Wu You had kidnapped Shen Jing. Unfortunately, no one in the entire Huatian Palace knew, let alone her.

"How can we find her?" Mo Wen clenched his fist tightly. Shen Jing's final words kept resounding in his mind. If you also love me, no matter what challenges you might face, please don't let go.

Shen Jing had been kidnapped, but he would find her again.

"You want to snatch a person from the hands of Emperor Wu You?" Mo Qingge looked at Mo Wen with a strange look. She did not have the confidence to do so, but those who are ignorant do not know fear. Once Emperor Wu You returned to the Underworld, no one could snatch Shen Jing back from his hands.

"I will not give up," Mo Wen said softly.

"Youth, such ambition!" Mo Qingtian rolled his eyes at Mo Wen.

"Who are you?" Mo Wen looked at the siblings. Mo Qingge and Mo Qingtian were shrouded in mystery.

"Since you have reached this stage, you will know about this sooner or later. There is no harm in telling you now. We are from the Spirit Realm, and the Huatian Palace is an organization established by the Spirit Realm. Since ancient times, all the realms have always been fighting for ownership of the Source World and the Spirit Realm has been the guardian of the Source World," Mo Qingge said.

Mo Wen frowned. "What you are saying is too profound. What place is the Spirit Realm? How did this world form?" He had lived a lifetime in another world. That world had not been as complicated as this one. Also, wasn't the Source World the original and the vastest realm?

This world's Source World was so small. Could it be that the Spirit Realm or the Underworld were even smaller than this Source World?

The world that Mo Wen had lived in before naturally also had all sorts of independent dimensions, but the existence of all these spaces were based on the Source World. They would flourish and decline together.

"Maybe you will not believe me even if I tell you. This world is a world that is beyond salvation. Tens of thousands of years ago, problems occurred and it has been constantly crumbling. It could be completely destroyed at any moment. Since you know about immortal cultivators and the secrets of some spaces, I'll tell you some of the history of this world." Mo Qingge's gaze shifted towards the horizon of the sea of clouds. Her gaze grew deeper, and her expression also grew more serious.

Mo Wen fell silent. Maybe others would not believe their story, but he strongly believed it. He had long since discovered that this world had problems.

"Ever since this world was born, no one knows has been able to tell how long a history it has had. However, dividing up the timeline, we can roughly divide it up into the Immemorial Age, Primeval Age, Ancient Age, Middle Age, and Modern Age. The Immemorial Age and Primeval Age were so long ago that they do not have any recorded history that has been passed down. The most we have from those two eras are just mentioned in a word or two. Hence, these two ages are the ages of legend. I will not discuss them specifically."

The ages that we have detailed recordings for start from the Ancient Age. The Ancient Age was around 120 million years ago. The Ancient Age was the most prosperous age this world had ever seen. Back then, there were countless powerful clans and countless renowned strong practitioners. The legendary God of the Underworld is a person from the Ancient Age. However, at that time, there was still no Underworld, as the world was still a complete whole."

"A complete world!" Mo Wen's eyes flashed. Based on his understanding, ordinary worlds were indeed like that. At least the Source World was the largest and most complete world.

"That's right. The world back then was very large. No one knows how large. In short, it was vast and endless. In other words, the world back then was as vast as the universe itself."

Mo Qingge retracted her gaze. She looked at Mo Wen and quietly said, "Do you know how this universe was formed?"

"Was it the Big Bang?" Mo Wen said probingly. No matter what, he was an educated person. In scientific theory, there was a hypothesis that said that the universe was formed from the Big Bang.

Mo Qingge did not comment. Her gaze stared into the distant horizon as she quietly said, "When the most prosperous Ancient Age reached its pinnacle, a startling change no one had foreseen occurred. It was a doomsday, a doomsday that killed the hope for all immortal cultivators. That day, the world collapsed. Destruction left no place untouched. The void consumed everything. The universe that you know of was formed that day."

"What!" Mo Wen cried out in surprise. The vast, endless universe was actually formed from the Ancient Age's world exploding. Then, how big was that world? It was practically unimaginable!

"Without a doubt, that was just the Ancient Age's world. The world you see now and that age's world were completely different. In reality, that huge catastrophe did not completely destroy the entire world. There was still a piece of land that fortunately survived. That land was called the Nine State Continent back then."

"The Nine State Continent was at the center of the world. At the same time, it was the most prosperous and largest piece of land. Back then, in the entire world, only the Nine State Continent and a few small surrounding districts managed to survive. However, the effects of the catastrophe were too great. The Nine State Continent managed to survive, but it was crumbling and could collapse at any moment."

"In order to stabilize the last bit of the world, the strong practitioners of the Nine State Continent joined forces and divided it up. Back then, the Nine State Continent's Immortal Cultivation world had four large factions. Each faction joined forces to divide a large portion of the space, becoming the Spirit Realm, the Devil Kingdom, the Demon Realm and the Underworld. Now, do you see how the Underworld and the Spirit Realm came to be?"

"So that's how it happened." Mo Wen nodded his head. He finally understood how those worlds came into existence.

"Of course, there were more than four factions among the Nine State Continent's immortal cultivators. However, the four large factions were the largest factions, so the space they managed to divide up was also the largest. Aside from that, there were actually many other smaller spaces, such as the Magical Realm, Buddha Realm, Shura Realm, Peng Lai Immortal Realm, etc. However, compared to the four large realms, these spaces were just small worlds."

"After the four large factions divided up the Nine State Continent, the Source World was left with just this small part?" Mo Wen was speechless. Wasn't this too cruel? Even if they divided up the Nine State Continent, they did not have to do it so "completely". All the worlds depended on the Source World to exist. If the Source World was destroyed, all the worlds that were divided up from it would similarly be destroyed.

Those immortal cultivators had practically gone mad. This was the same as building a bomb that could go off at any time.

"Naturally, that's not the case. Actually, the birth of the four Realms was the end of the Ancient Age. The catastrophe signified the end of the Ancient Age. At that time, the Source World was still comparatively more stable. However, once the Middle Age came, turmoil stirred up again. The reason the Source World has ended up like this is related to the Great War between Realms that occurred during the Middle Age."

Mo Qingge sighed softly. If it wasn't for the Great War between Realms, this world would most likely not be in such decline.

"What happened during the Middle Age?" Mo Wen asked curiously. The world had been forcibly divided up and these immortal cultivators were still fighting amongst themselves. It was practically unbelievable.

"Did you know that the day of the catastrophe would later be known as the Immortal End Day?" Mo Qingge's mouth curled into a mocking smile.

"The Immortal End Day?" Mo Wen asked doubtfully.

"During the Ancient Age, the immortal cultivators were a very complete system. The final goal of being an immortal cultivator was to become immortal. It was to break past the barriers of the world and live as long as the world. They wished to be as glorious as the moon and the sun. During the Ancient Age, many pinnacle strong practitioners ascended and became immortal, forever leaving this world. However, after the catastrophe, the immortal cultivators discovered a terrifying reality. The Doors of the World had been completely sealed shut. The so-called Immortal End Day was the day from which no one could ascend and become immortal."

"The Doors of the World had been completely sealed shut!" Mo Wen drew a cold breath. Although he did not know what the Doors of the World were, he knew that if an immortal cultivator could not ascend and become immortal, that meant that they would forever be unable to transcend. In this sick world, it was the same as being trapped in a cage.
