From Gu Lianyue's mouth, the distant years that had been sealed in the dust slowly unfolded towards Gu Chen.

In ancient times, there was a catastrophe of heaven and earth, and the specific reason for its occurrence has long been unknown, only that in that battle, there was a peerless power from the depths of the universe to attack the Canghuang Ancient Star and pierce the entire Ancient Star.

The ancient star was pierced through a hole close to the center of the earth, and the crack in this hole spread to the entire surface, and the once vast continent disappeared without a trace, and most of the region was turned into an ocean, leaving only a few continents isolated from each other, including the Fairy Continent and the Kunlun Continent.

That catastrophe changed the topography of the entire Pale Yellow Ancient Star, and the huge void in the center of the earth spread to the continental shelf, forming a special place such as the sinkhole and the earth's eye.

In other words, the sinkhole leads to the center of the Yellow Ancient Star, which is an extension of the hollow hole in the center of the earth on the earth's surface.

"The Eye of the Sinkhole is like this?"

Gu Chen was shocked when he heard this, what kind of divine power did it take to penetrate an ancient star, and what kind of scale did that war in the ancient era reach?

What Gu Lianyue said to him was like a fantasy, if he told ordinary people, he would definitely scoff at it and think it was a joke.

But Gu Chen thought of the fragmented surface of the Deep Demon Sea, and thought that as he gradually approached the eye of the sinkhole, the gravity he felt continued to strengthen, and he couldn't help but believe her statement.

"In places like the Tiankeng Earth Eye, there are several places on the Canghuang Ancient Star, and it is said that there is a glacial abyss on the Heavenly Burial Continent, which also leads to the center of the earth. These are all recorded in the classics left by the ancestors of my Gu clan, and now the only people on the mainland who know such secrets are the high-level of a very small number of forces such as us and the Thirteen Immortal Sects. Gu Lianyue added.

Gu Chen took a deep breath, "I understand the origin of the Tiankeng Earth Eye, but just now you said that this place is related to the opportunity to become an immortal, what is going on?"

"In the ancient era, before that catastrophe occurred, the cultivation civilization of the Canghuang Ancient Star was extremely prosperous, the number of immortals was far greater than today, and the connection with the universe was also very close. ”

Gu Chen nodded, he had heard of these things a long time ago, and it could be seen from some descriptions in the Doom Poison Sutra that he had also discussed this matter with Gu Ziyan.

But after that catastrophe, everything changed. Because the stars of the Pale Yellow Ancient Star were pierced, the environment of heaven and earth has changed since then, and the vitality has been continuously lost. This is why the number of immortals has been decreasing since ancient times, so that by 30,000 years ago, only the last thirteen immortals were left on the ancient star. ”

"It's not just the immortal dao inheritance that is affected, even the martial arts inheritance that flourished in ancient times has also been interrupted, and the six veins of my Gu clan, although it was born after that catastrophe, there are fewer and fewer people who can cultivate the hegemonic body in the past dynasties, and the last hegemon owner is Gu Hao, the ancestor who migrated to the immortal spirit continent 30,000 years ago. ”

"Since the ancestors and the thirteen immortals, the environment of the Canghuang Ancient Star has become even worse, and so far, no overlord and immortal have been born. ”

Gu Chen became calm after the initial surprise and muttered. "I heard that the ancestor and the thirteen immortals disappeared shortly after migrating to the Immortal Spirit Continent, and I saw an ancestor with a hegemonic body outside the eyes of the Tiankeng before, and it seems that that person is Gu Hao's ancestor. ”

Gu Lianyue nodded heavily, "I'm afraid that's right, do you know why the ancestors and the thirteen immortals entered the Tiankeng Earth Eye?"

Gu Chen shook his head.

"Since the Ancient Catastrophe, the Pale Yellow Ancient Star has become no longer suitable for cultivation, and the monks of the past generations have thought of countless ways to change this situation, and there are two main methods. ”

"First, when the catastrophe came, the ancient continent fell apart, and the ancient immortals also died, and the thriving civilization was interrupted. Legend has it that the remains of the ancient continent are in the center of the earth, where there is still a powerful inheritance, so when there is no hope for many monks to break through, they will choose to enter the eye of the sinkhole, wanting to find the treasure left by the immortals, and then break through to become immortals. ”

Gu Chen suddenly realized, which explained why so many people in the past generations chose to enter the Tiankeng and gamble on the chance.

"Second, people look to the distant universe. Since the Pale Yellow Ancient Star was no longer suitable for cultivation, many monks wanted to leave the Ancient Star and enter the universe to find another Ancient Star of Life. ”

"In ancient times, people had an understanding of the vast star field outside the Canghuang Ancient Star, so the first way to choose this method was to do so. It's just that I didn't expect that after that catastrophe, a heavenly ruin appeared in the sky above the Pale Yellow Ancient Star, which was full of nine-day storms, and no one could cross it at all. ”

"The path to heaven was interrupted, so all the monks who wanted to seek further could only put their hope in the eyes of the sinkhole. ”

"No, if you can't enter the universe because of the Heavenly Ruins, then 30,000 years ago ......"

Gu Chen remembered the arrival of the gods thirty thousand years ago.

"It seems that you have already thought that 30,000 years ago, the gods descended on the Canghuang Ancient Star in search of a certain treasure, and the ancestors of my Gu family and the alliances of all parties went all out, and it was not easy to destroy them, but it also led to the destruction of the Kunlun Continent, and even the ruins left by the gods could not be completely destroyed. ”

"After experiencing that war, Ancestor Gu Hao and the thirteen immortals realized the vastness of the universe and felt that they were small and weak. ”

"According to the warnings of the gods before they died, they are only the vanguard troops, and in order to find such a treasure, sooner or later more masters will descend on the Canghuang Ancient Star. ”

Gu Chen's heart was awe-inspiring, and he couldn't help but touch his abdomen, could the mother root of all things in the dantian be such a treasure?

"Because of the threat of the gods before their deaths, and the fact that the ancestors and the thirteen immortals also wanted to seek a breakthrough, they were determined to leave the ancient star, and they wanted to cross the universe and seek a higher realm in order to protect the ancient star from being bullied by outsiders. ”

"Since the gods were able to descend on the Heavenly Burial Continent through the Heavenly Ruins, the ancestors felt that they could too, so they tried to ascend to the heavens. ”

"But the result is that they have failed, and like the ancestors of the past generations, the heavenly ruins are simply impassable. ”

Gu Chen blurted out, "So they also hit the eye of the sinkhole?"

Gu Lianyue nodded, "The ancestors and the thirteen immortals entered the Tiankeng Eye shortly after migrating to the Immortal Spirit Continent, but I didn't expect them to never come back. ”

"Since them, the Qi of the Pale Yellow Ancient Star seems to have been exhausted, and no overlord or immortal has ever been born. ”

"In the past 30,000 years, whether it is my Gu clan or the Thirteen Immortal Sects, there have been many ancestors who have entered the Tiankeng Earth Eye one after another, either to prolong their longevity or to seek a breakthrough in the realm. ”

"Back then, your great-great-ancestors and great-ancestors also led a large number of elites of the clan into the Tiankeng Earth Eye for the same reason, but in the end, they also failed. ”
