809: Chapter 235_5 809: Chapter 235_5 He took a step forward and flew into the sky.
A step toward heaven!
In that moment, his body also burst with multicolored radiance, and faintly, Cao Zhen felt a sense that this great figure, was intricately linked with his dynasty.
The memories of this great figure seemed to be sealed all along, and on the day of ascension, he seemed to have regained his memories.
Afterward, he not only engaged in cultivation but also governed the nation and recruited disciples.
As the nation thrived more and more, his aura also grew stronger.
Slowly, after many epochs, in the void, the Heavenly Dao descended once again, and in the void, bolts of lightning, flames, and heavy water appeared, rushing toward the dynasty where he resided.
Cao Zhen’s eyes suddenly narrowed.
Was Heavenly Dao bringing about another calamity?
Previously, the calamity of Heavenly Dao had descended because the numerous cultivators slaughtered mortals, thus enraging Heavenly Dao.
But this time?
This reincarnated great figure, after being reborn, had wholeheartedly served the people; why would Heavenly Dao suddenly descend from the sky again, and this time, the tribulation seemed even more terrifying than before?
The previous heavenly tribulation involved mere flames and lightning.
But this time, in the void, the falling lightning and flames even transformed into giant beings of lightning, flames, and frost…
each one as huge as a mountain, each radiating an endless aura of terror.
There were also lightning, flames, and dust that transformed into terrifying strange beasts that entered the dynasty and wreaked havoc as if to completely destroy this dynasty.
And this great figure, alone, flew to the pinnacle of the Capital City, above the sky, while below, within the dynasty, countless rivers and mountains, and each immortal and mortal, their bodies emitted ascending beams of light, converging upon this great figure.
Within this radiance, the great figure battled with Heavenly Dao, resisting the existence of heavenly tribulation.
Within Heavenly Dao, terrifying giant palms fell from the void, constantly striking down.
Previously, the immortals faced these terrifying giant palms and were instantly defeated, suffering countless deaths and injuries.
Yet this immortal lifted his hands, on which was a map illustrating this world, his dynasty.
As the map unfolded, it seemed like all the power of the entire dynasty was converging within it.
With the support of all the forces within the entire dynasty, he repeatedly confronted Heavenly Dao.
Giant palms from the void continuously slammed down.
With each fall of a giant palm, the entire world trembled violently.
The void shattered, the sun, moon, stars, rivers, mountains…
everything in this dimensional space seemed to shatter.
However, this reincarnated great figure resisted these terrifying attacks, time and again.
Until, upon the thirty-sixth descent, he could no longer hold on, the map shattered, and he fell down.
And that map, fragmented into five pieces, fell to the earth.
The map shattered, the great figure died, and the dynasty was destroyed!
However, after countless years, in the dynasty’s Capital City, a huge ruin emerged.
The next moment, the scene before everyone’s eyes disappeared.
Although the images on the stone wall had not appeared for long, Cao Zhen felt as though he had lived through countless epochs.
It took him a while to come back to his senses, and he said to the people around him, “This, this must be the scene of the ruin’s creation.
This ruin is probably transformed from those five shattered maps.
And this map in my hand might be one of those five.”
As his voice fell, the map in front of him floated down.
Before, they had already obtained other maps with routes, and those maps, once they fell onto the wall, would show a pathway leading somewhere.
But now, as this map fell, it was completely blank, like a sheet of paper.
Cao Zhen immediately widened his eyes in surprise, “Turned into blank paper?”
He turned his head to Ling Hu Gudu and asked, “What did you see on your map after you first got it?” Ling Hu Gudu was the first among them to get a map.
Ling Hu Gudu thought for a moment and replied, “It was a series of images, of mountains and rivers, people, utterly different from the previous maps we got.
That’s why I said it was different then.
But now, the scenes on the map have disappeared.”
While speaking, he showed a reflective expression, recalling, “However, the images on the map before seemed to include what I just saw.
So, after we viewed it, did the map disappear?
This map is obviously left by that great figure.
But why would the images disappear?
Is it due to insufficient mana or some other reason?
Moreover, this map, after losing any images, what use does it have?
We still know too little about this ruin.
However, no matter what, the map just now also provided us with great benefits.
I won’t talk with you all for now; I need to absorb the insight I just experienced.”
Not just Ling Hu Gudu, but everyone else also sat down cross-legged, reflecting on the insights and everything they had just felt.
Unknowingly, as they reflected, a night had passed.
It was dawn.
Cao Zhen looked up at the bright sky and stood up.
He looked back at everyone and said, “Let’s go, we should continue on our journey, still following the previous route.”
