Unlocking The Easy Mode Of Cultivation After Getting Married

Chapter 690: They Bet Correctly

“I’ll do it.”

Qin Changqing’s hand moved and reached into the dark hole.

The dark hole was so impenetrable that not even light could escape, though it was not large in size, with a diameter of just several tens of meters.

However, since there was no light for a considerable distance around it, it appeared much larger.

Soon, Qin Changqing made a discovery; he retrieved quite a bit of sand from within the dark hole.

Among the sand, one grain was particularly large.

“This is Star Sand, useful to Great Luo even. This grain of Star Sand seems to originate from an Immortal Star; Immortal Stars are generally not easily swallowed by dark holes. There’s likely to be a space inside it,” said Moon God.

Space?

Qin Changqing’s Immortal Thoughts swept over it.

This grain of sand was about the size of a bean, but in reality, it had once been an Immortal Star.

Even an Immortal Star presided over by a Taiyi Immortal King was so vast that if you placed a black hole next to it, the black hole wouldn’t be able to absorb it.

After some time searching, Qin Changqing indeed found something.

He discovered a space within it.

Then, with a thought, Qin Changqing forcibly entered.

The space inside was not vast but still spanned tens of thousands of miles, with most areas layered with innumerable items stored inside.

However, these items were sealed by a Prohibition Formation, an insolvable Immortal Prohibition.

That is, should anyone try to force open this Prohibition Formation, it would trigger self-destruction, obliterating everything inside.

With Qin Changqing’s current mastery in Array Formations, he could break the seal.

If he really couldn’t break it, he could engrave the Prohibition Formation and forcibly decipher it through experience.

But this would require more time and effort.

“The power limit of this world once reached at least the level of a Semi-Saint,” Qin Changqing thought.

A world that possessed Semi-Saints, and possibly even Quasi-Saints, was exceptionally powerful, yet it had still been drained dry by those “Great Terrors.”

Then, at the center, Qin Changqing discovered a… coffin! To be precise, it was not a coffin but rather a rectangular box, made of an unknown material, sealing a young girl inside.

The girl’s features were delicate, as if she were in a deep slumber.

“She must have been sent in here by the people of this world at the last moment,” Qin Changqing thought.

Images began to form in his mind.

Many years ago on a day lost to time, this world faced a catastrophe. “Great Terrors” assaulted from all corners, sucking dry the very essence and vitality of this world.

Not even a Semi-Saint could resist them.

In the end, to preserve a sliver of hope, the world chose to use a black hole to seal away an Immortal Star and left behind this young girl.

Those “Great Terrors” cared nothing for this tiny spark of life, which is why this grain of Star Sand has survived until now.

Qin Changqing then found a stone stele; once his Immortal Thoughts entered it, he confirmed his speculations.

The stone stele was left by the people of this world.

It recorded everything that had happened in this world. They did not know what “Great Terrors” were, only that on that day, the strongest beings of the world took a crucial step.

A step that, in Qin Changqing’s view, was the achievement of Semi-Sainthood.

It was possibly even Quasi-Sainthood.

Afterward, feeling their power had reached its zenith, they opened the World Crystal Wall, intending to let the glory of their world shine across the heavens.

What awaited them was not supreme glory.

But the apocalypse of their world.

In the final moments, they arranged this place.

The people of this world were willing to trade all things within this space, solely in the hopes that those who found it would bring the young girl to a safe haven.

“Such a powerful world has never been through a Great Terror. If the Divine Spirit World, where the Ancient Emperor is, were to be discovered, it would not be good,” Qin Changqing thought.

Fortunately, these worlds have a World Crystal Wall.

Before someone in the world opens the World Crystal Wall, these worlds are not easy to discover.

The people of this world courted their own death.

The strongest being in the world, after becoming a Semi-Saint, felt invincible and thus decided to open the World Crystal Wall.

Probably hoping to let the glory of the entire world shine upon the heavens, just like the Immortal World.

The result, however, was a catastrophic disaster.

Of course, to say this fellow courted death wouldn’t be entirely accurate.

Once a world developed to a certain extent, it would face a bottleneck.

If the world couldn’t grow stronger, its strongest being would be unable to achieve sanctity.

Like the Immortal World, which constantly absorbs new blood, and with its laws reflecting across the heavens, it becomes ever more powerful.

But with the existence of a “Great Terror”, without sufficient strength, daring to open the doors wide like the Immortal World is tantamount to suicide.

It’s not that there isn’t a World Crystal Wall in the Immortal World.

But the World Crystal Wall of the Immortal World is likely used to protect those Spirit Domains.

The origin of these Spirit Domains includes some worlds in the embryonic stage within Outer Heaven.

These worlds hadn’t yet grown strong before they were incorporated into the Immortal World, becoming the Lower Realms.

Including the Blue Realm among countless others, these Spirit Domains became the powerful source of the Immortal World’s strength.

The ceaseless ascension of Immortals made the Immortal World ever more prosperous.

And the Immortal World also protected these Spirit Domains.

Otherwise, any of the malevolent existences in Outer Heaven would be an unrivaled threat to a Spirit Domain.

In comparison, the invasion of the Devil Immortal Realm doesn’t quite count as a disaster.

Because the Devil Immortal Realm is only after more territory, looking to turn Spirit Domains into Demon Realms, not aiming for world annihilation.

The Demon Immortals also wish to grow and become stronger.

It’s just that they’ve gotten used to taking shortcuts and like to pry at the Immortal World’s corners.

Qin Changqing speculated.

If the Immortal World were truly faced with an enemy it couldn’t deal with, it’s unlikely the Devil Immortal Realm would sit back and watch.

Although the Immortal World and the Devil Immortal Realm are mortal enemies, in opposition and frequently fighting to the death, should the Immortal World really perish, the Devil Immortal Realm would soon follow.

To those “Great Terrors,” the Devil Immortal Realm would equally be a super tonic.

It’s just that they can’t chew through it.

Qin Changqing infused Immortal Element into the stele, leaving a mark inside a special Immortal Prohibition within it.

It was tantamount to reaching an agreement with the stele.

Then, in that space, the Immortal Prohibition surrounding the mountain of treasures amassed over ten thousand miles unraveled.

No price was needed to be paid.

The people left behind here also knew that they had no trump cards.

The only slight threat was to destroy this place.

But if they truly destroyed here, would any beings capable of entering take that girl out with them?

Therefore, this agreement was one of honor between gentlemen.

They had no choice but to take the gamble.

If the person who found this place was honorable and righteous, they would surely honor their promise.

If it were a malevolent being or a petty person… they had no means to deal with the onslaught of the worst-case scenario.

Luckily, their gamble paid off.

The one who found this place was Qin Changqing.

Qin Changqing didn’t rush to take the girl out with him.

Instead, he planned to bring the Star Sand back to the Immortal World before releasing her.

Apparently, she had been sealed here by someone using a special method.

This method was indeed unusual, somewhat similar to the feigned death-like slumbers of Void Refinement and Integration practitioners in the sanctuaries of the Blue Realm before Qin Changqing’s ascension.

Difficult, yes, but not impossible to achieve.

Qin Changqing stepped back.

The moment he stepped out, he realized something was amiss.

A battle had already erupted.
