Chapter 689 - 688: The Unsealed Seal

Chapter 689: Chapter 688: The Unsealed Seal

After hearing the Cyan Dragon’s words, Lin Yun’s expression grew complicated. Who could have imagined that this was the origin of the Divine Realm and the Demon Realm? And to think that the Cyan Dragon and the others had sacrificed their own lives to stop them.

"Kid, do you understand the secret of the Cyan Dragon Palace now?" In contrast to Lin Yun’s complicated expression, the Cyan Dragon appeared very calm as it posed the question.

Hearing the Cyan Dragon’s words, Lin Yun silently nodded. Who would have thought that the secret hidden within the Cyan Dragon Palace would be related to the Ancient Golden Era?

’My mind is a mess.’ But soon, Lin Yun suddenly thought of Qing Zhu. Connecting that to the secret of the Cyan Dragon Palace, he quickly realized what the problem was.

"Senior, what did you mean when you said the Cyan Dragon Palace’s seal is useless now?" Lin Yun asked, looking at the Cyan Dragon. This was very likely Qing Zhu’s true objective.

Hearing Lin Yun’s question, the Cyan Dragon slowly explained, "The Cyan Dragon Palace is the source of Energy for the seal on the passage. Furthermore, the Cyan Dragon Palace, the White Tiger Forest, the Vermilion Bird Hall, and the Xuanwu Hall are all interconnected. If any one of them appears in the world, the other three will inevitably appear as well. Once they have all appeared, it means the seal of the Celestial Spirit Four Symbols has been broken..."

Following the Cyan Dragon’s explanation, it wasn’t hard to understand. The Cyan Dragon Palace was the source of Energy for sealing the Space Passage, and that Energy was the Cyan Dragon itself.

Now that Lin Yun had obtained the Cyan Dragon’s Dragon Blood and Dragon Bone, the Energy the Cyan Dragon used to seal the Space Passage had also vanished. Naturally, the seal no longer existed.

Hearing the Cyan Dragon’s explanation, Lin Yun’s expression turned extremely grim. He never would have imagined that Qing Zhu’s goal was actually to open the Space Passage to the Divine Realm and the Demon Realm.

But how did Qing Zhu know about the Divine Realm? And the Space Passage to it? As he puzzled over this, the Cyan Dragon, seeing Lin Yun’s unpleasant expression and seemingly knowing what he was thinking, spoke again in a faint voice.

"The Four Great Ancient Races. On the Celestial Spirit Continent, there are the Four Great Ancient Races—four families specially chosen by the four of us before we sealed the Space Passage. Their purpose was to guard the Celestial Spirit Four Symbols, prevent them from appearing in the world, and protect the seal on the passage. It seems too much time has passed. The Four Great Ancient Races have, after all, forgotten their oath."

"The Four Great Ancient Races..." Hearing the Cyan Dragon’s explanation, everything seemed to fall into place. If Qing Zhu was truly a member of the Four Great Ancient Races, then her familiarity with the Cyan Dragon Palace and her knowledge of the sealed Space Passage would all make sense.

To think that Qing Zhu’s goal was to break the seal on the Space Passage. Once the seal was broken, it meant that people from the Divine Realm and the Demon Realm could descend upon the Celestial Spirit Continent through the passage.

At this thought, Lin Yun’s heart grew heavy. He didn’t know about the Demon Realm, but as for the Divine Realm, they only needed to dispatch a single Main God to the Celestial Spirit Continent, and the entire continent would have no choice but to submit.

"Some things are destined to happen. After sealing it for so many years, the day we must face this has finally come. All these years, I have been wondering whether what I did back then was right or wrong."

"That’s right. Sealing the Space Passage could indeed prevent harassment from the Divine Realm and the Demon Realm, but it never solved the fundamental problem. It was like placing a bomb next to yourself without knowing when it would detonate. One day, it was bound to explode."

"Too much time has passed. The people of the Celestial Spirit Continent have forgotten the truth. Now, I’m afraid no one would even know what you were talking about if you mentioned the Divine Realm and the Demon Realm."

The Cyan Dragon lamented. For so many ages, it had guarded the Celestial Spirit Continent with its life, leaving only a Residual Soul in the Cyan Dragon Palace, constantly watching over the continent’s changes.

With that said, the Cyan Dragon looked at Lin Yun, its expression calm, and spoke in a level tone, "Kid, some things must be faced. Even if the seal hadn’t been broken now, its Energy would have run out eventually. Since it can no longer be avoided, you can only face it."

"Face it? Senior, the strength of the Divine Realm..." The idea of the Celestial Spirit Continent facing the Divine Realm and the Demon Realm was a complete fantasy. Lin Yun himself couldn’t believe it.

But in the face of Lin Yun’s doubt, the Cyan Dragon chuckled lightly and said, "If you don’t even try, how will you know you can’t succeed? Just look at yourself. Divine Demon Cultivation was supposed to be impossible, yet you still resolutely walk this path, have you not?"

"There is still some time. Even with the seal gone, a Space Passage that has been sealed for so many years will take some time to reconnect the Divine Demon Continent and the Celestial Spirit Continent," the Cyan Dragon stated.

"How much time is left?" Lin Yun asked.

"A minimum of twenty years, a maximum of thirty," the Cyan Dragon replied faintly.

Hearing the Cyan Dragon’s answer, Lin Yun almost cursed out loud. ’A minimum of twenty years? A maximum of thirty? What can I possibly do in that little time? Is that enough for someone to reach the Cultivation of a Main God?’

One had to understand, if the Divine Realm were to casually send even one Main God to the Celestial Spirit Continent, the entire continent would tremble.

It was true that Lin Yun wanted to crush the entire Divine Realm, but he didn’t have that kind of strength right now. Forget crushing the Divine Realm; if a single Main God were to arrive, Lin Yun would be helpless against them.

Lin Yun’s expression was grim. Seeing this, the Cyan Dragon said with some irritation, "You are walking the path of Divine Demon Cultivation, so why are you so lacking in confidence? To be honest, you’re the most pathetic Martial Artist practicing Divine Demon Cultivation I have ever seen."

What the Cyan Dragon said wasn’t wrong. Back in the ancient era, when the Divine Realm and Demon Realm first appeared, Martial Artists who practiced Divine Demon Cultivation were not unheard of.

All those who chose Divine Demon Cultivation had three things in common: extremely high talent, an exceptionally strong-willed personality, and unrivaled combat prowess among those at the same level.

Even the Cyan Dragon, with its pure Divine Dragon Bloodline, was no match for a Martial Artist of the same level who practiced Divine Demon Cultivation. That was the power of Divine Demon Cultivation.

However, from ancient times to the present, not a single person had ever been able to walk this path to the end.

Hearing the Cyan Dragon’s words, Lin Yun looked at the being before him. To be honest, at first, Lin Yun had been furious with the Cyan Dragon. It had imprisoned three Spaces, then destroyed those same three Spaces, showing no regard for the people inside.

But now, Lin Yun’s hatred for the Cyan Dragon wasn’t as intense. In fact, he even felt a deep admiration for it. Anyone who would sacrifice their own life to protect the people of the Celestial Spirit Continent was worthy of his respect. ℴ

Moreover, Lin Yun felt he could now understand why the Cyan Dragon had imprisoned those three worlds and created a Divine Palace and a Demon Palace within them. It was all, perhaps, because the Cyan Dragon didn’t want the truth of the ancient era to be misunderstood by the world.
