Chapter 1339: Chapter 271 Qingyun Palace_2

At this moment, Gu Chen looked toward Ren Fei and his group, curiously asking, "How did you all come to be in the Saint Realm?"

Ren Fei said, "Not just us, the same is true for the other Nine Heavens."

"Hmm?" Upon hearing this, Gu Chen and his companions were immediately even more puzzled.

Afterward, Ren Fei spoke, explaining to Gu Chen and his group: "Originally, at the end of the last great era, when the great calamity was imminent, before the expedition, the nine supreme celestial lords made a decision..."

It turned out that, at the end of the last great era, the Ice Emperor and the others had already prepared for the worst. Thus, under the leadership of the Ice Emperor, the highest celestial beings, with supreme methods, forcibly opened a sliver of the Saint Realm at a time when the battle for supremacy among the Ten Thousand Tribes had not yet begun.

"So at that time, the Ice Emperor and them also left behind ’seeds of hope’ for the celestial beings?!" Long Yi exclaimed, shocked.

"Correct," Ren Fei nodded, his face also very complex.

Evidently, before the battle began, the Ice Emperor and his cohort had also foreseen their potential failure. Thus, they left behind a bastion of hope for the future, to prevent the complete destruction of the myriad realms.

Ren Fei said, "Back then, when the ’seeds of hope’ entered the Saint Realm, they gathered together under the names of the Nine Heavens and established nine forces, surviving in this place to this day. They did this in hopes of contributing their final strength one day at the end of an era when the great calamity arrives."

Upon hearing these words, Gu Chen also instantly understood. No wonder the headmaster of the Qingyun Academy had said that there would be a significant chance to complete the continuity of divine powers like the Moving Mountain Seal within the Saint Realm.

The "seeds of hope" left behind by the Ice Emperor and the other supreme celestial beings that year, upon sending them into the Saint Realm, naturally left various inheritances behind.

At this moment, Ren Fei spoke again, adding: "The entire Saint Realm is not limited to us alone. Essentially every great era, there are supreme beings who leave behind hope for the future, just like the Sword Monarch Palace, which hails from several eras past."

Ren Fei explained that ever since the Saint Realm’s existence, at the end of every epoch, there have been supreme celestial level beings who used astonishing methods to open up the Saint Realm and send in some "seeds of hope."

And the reason for doing this was to ensure that, one day, the myriad celestial realms could rise again, so as not to be completely reduced to ruin.

It could be said that these supreme entities had really taken great pains.

And only the Saint Realm, because of its uniqueness, was able to avoid the great calamity of the end of an era.

"However, this time, the situation is somewhat different," Ren Fei said, and his expression immediately became extremely grave.

Gu Chen and the others felt the same way, understanding the meaning behind Ren Fei’s words.

In this great era, the path ahead had been severed, the highest celestial beings were no longer visible, and at the same time, the Saint Realm was on the brink of destruction.

Moreover, the supreme beings had deduced that this era would be the last chance for the myriad celestial realms. If they could not succeed, the myriad realms would collapse, and everything would turn into nothingness, more completely than at any time before.

"Does Senior Ren know the reason for the decay of this world?" At this time, Gu Qingyan spoke up, asking with some curiosity.

The Saint Realm had existed for endless years and had once been the core of the myriad celestial realms, extraordinary and transcendent. Why was it suddenly going to perish?

This question was one that many people were extremely curious about and wanted to know the answer to, and Gu Chen and his group were no exception.

However, to the disappointment of Gu Chen and the others, Ren Fei shook his head and said, "I do not know."

Gu Chen pressed on, asking, "If that’s the case, where did this news initially come from?"

"From the depths of this world, those imperial and royal clans," said Ren Fei, his expression involuntarily growing solemn as he mentioned those races.

The imperial and royal clans within the Saint Realm were nearly as ancient as this world itself, holding an extraordinary status here.

It can be said that they were among the original inhabitants of the Saint Realm.

And their strength was naturally extraordinary, the mightiest, and no one wished to provoke them.

"It seems that only those imperial and royal clans who first entered the Saint Realm to avoid calamity know the true reason for the destruction of the Saint Realm," Gu Chen and his group realized this point.

At this time, Long Yi spoke, asking, "How strong is the Sword Monarch Palace in this world?"

Ren Fei glanced at him, knowing that Long Yi was considering the problem of the Sword Monarch Palace’s subsequent reprisal, and said, "The Sword Monarch Palace is formidable, teeming with Great Powers within, and they even have several beings who are a half-step away from being giants. Brother Gu, you must not be careless."

At the same time, Ren Fei also mentioned that although there was a ceiling in the Saint Realm that suppressed breakthroughs to higher realms, with the accumulation over many years, the strength of some great powers at the heavenly level was incredibly terrifying, and those half-step giants could also not necessarily be considered weaker than the genuine giant-level beings of the upper world.

And once the Saint Realm collapses, and the suppression disappears, their levels of cultivation will improve at an incredibly rapid pace, becoming supreme beings is not at all difficult!

"Before the collapse of the Saint Realm, there will be a transition period, during which time the ceiling of this world will disappear. That will also be our best opportunity to improve ourselves," Ren Fei said, sharing this news with Gu Chen and the others.

The return of these original inhabitants of the Saint Realm will, without doubt, create quite a stir in the upper realms, and Gu Chen and his group have come to realize this point.

Afterward, Ren Fei spoke up, inviting them to Qingyun Palace; this move was also an intentional protective measure for Gu Chen and his group, to prevent them from suffering retaliation from the Sword Monarch Palace.

And for Gu Chen, he also wished it to be so, intending to obtain the continuities of divine powers such as the Moving Mountain Seal.

On the way, Gu Chen also spoke of this matter.

"You’ve actually mastered that divine power?" Hearing this, Ren Fei was also somewhat surprised.

Although he was not a person from the last great era but a descendant of some people from the Azure Cloud Sky, he had also heard from his elders that the combination divine power established by the master of Azure Cloud Sky was extremely challenging to grasp.

For someone to comprehend three forms at the Unity Realm could truly be said to be as fantastical as a fairy tale.

At the same time, Ren Fei’s following words also served as a strong boost for Gu Chen, saying, "Regarding this divine power, we indeed have a record of it in Qingyun Palace."

Hearing this, Gu Chen’s expression instantly brightened, his heart growing quite expectant for this journey.

But then, Ren Fei added, "However, this divine power involves significant matters. To obtain it, you will still require the palace master’s approval."

"That is, of course," nodded Gu Chen.

After all, Qingyun Palace was different from Qingyun Academy, having just met and naturally unable to fully trust each other, it was impossible to simply hand over a divine power of this level to Gu Chen.

The main base of Qingyun Palace was not in Gargantuan Summit City. The reason Ren Fei and his people appeared here was only because the Battle for Supremacy among the Ten Thousand Tribes had begun, and like other forces, they were seeking the help of allies.

Very soon, they arrived at the teleportation formation of Gargantuan Summit City. Evidently, Qingyun Palace also had quite a bit of prestige in this world. In front of Ren Fei, those guards did not dare to obstruct Gu Chen and the others.

They smoothly passed through the teleportation formation, leaving Gargantuan Summit City and arriving at the city where the main base of Qingyun Palace was located.
