In ancient times, lichs fought to the death, and great powers fell like rain. Even Donghuang Taiyi in the Hunyuan Dao realm died. The twelve ancestral witches basically fell. Most of the twelve demon gods were killed or injured. The remaining four were still alive. They opened up the demon world and entered reincarnation. , start from scratch.
The only one who survived seemed to be Houtu, the ancestral witch among the twelve ancestral witches.
This is related to the division of the Three Realms and the birth of the Earthly Emperor's Book.
As we all know, the Book of the Earth Emperor is the result of Hou Tu abandoning the body of the ancestral shaman and refining it with the origin of the earth, in order to open up reincarnation and allow the three realms to cycle back and forth, so that all living beings can have an afterlife to look forward to.
With this merit, Hou Tu survived the catastrophe, and from then on, she was no longer a witch, but a deity, so she was invited by the heaven to become one of the four emperors.
In other words, the ancestral witch Houtu is still dead, and the one who survives is the Houtu Emperor.
But this creates a contradiction.
If the Earthly Emperor's Book was forged by Hou Tu's ancestral shaman, what about the remains of the ancestral shaman in this palace?
Gu Cheng confirmed again and again that the body of the ancestral witch sealed in the palace was definitely the body of the ancestral witch of Empress Houtu.
As for whether there is consciousness sleeping inside, it is still unknown because we have not gone deep into it.
"If the Earth Emperor's Script in the hands of Empress Houtu was not refined by the remains of the ancestral witch, then what kind of material was used to refine it into the artifact that can control the origin of the earth realm?"
Gu Cheng's eyes flickered, full of doubts.
It is recognized by the three worlds that the Emperor's Book of Earth was refined by Hou Tu who sacrificed his life, but now a hidden secret has emerged.
The important thing is, did Hou Tu know about it?
If she knew about it, she must have been involved in a huge conspiracy to deceive the Three Realms, which may be traced back to ancient times, and there was most likely a Dao Ancestor-level existence behind it.
If you don't know, then the future of Hou Tu's impact on Hunyuan will be really worrying.
It is completely conceivable that when she attacked the Hunyuan Dao realm with the help of the Three Emperors' artifact, the Earthly Emperor's Book, the ancestral witch's relic suddenly appeared and denied the legitimacy of the Earthly Emperor's Book. What a fatal blow it was!
But this raises questions again.
Why does such a crucial ancestral witch relic appear in this big world? Shouldn't it be hidden in a secret place where no one can find it?
"Unless there is a reason to store it here!"
Gu Cheng's way of thinking about problems has always been unique. He put aside Hou Tu's doubts, focused on the remains of the ancestral witch in front of him, and pressed his eyebrows.
Three rays of light suddenly appeared, Wu Chen, Human King, and Ancestral Demon all came out with sword energy, reappearing the supreme power of chaos to break the heaven.
It was a killing move, and the palace was instantly frozen, but the whole world was also boiling.
Countless "pottery figurines" cracked open dense gaps, and black mist that seemed to contain millions of dead souls continued to pour out, then drilled directly towards the ground and surged towards the center of the earth.
Gu Cheng didn't panic, stretched out his hand to grab it, and a long river of time suddenly appeared, covering the palace.
In the long river, the endless stream of light never stops running towards the future, but with a twist of his fingers, the twisted source power reverses the flow of the long river.
Moving forward is an infinite future.
Retrograde is the history of precipitation.
Gu Cheng wanted to take a look at the past movements of this palace.
At first, the surrounding scene remained unchanged, as if this temple had been at the center of this ruined world since ancient times. But when it was reversed to more than a hundred years ago, the scene finally changed, and the temple came from outside the sky, quietly. "Embedded" in the center of the earth.
Gu Cheng's brows moved, and he carefully looked at the movement when the palace arrived, and as expected, he discovered that this great world perished at that time.
"Just in time to see what the catastrophe of the end of the law will look like!"
Gu Cheng fluttered his sleeves, moved his perspective upward, and saw a colorless light that penetrated the world barrier, set off a great tide of void, and blasted into the core of the big world with the help of an unrivaled energy trend.
This is the light of destruction, pure light. It does not belong to Yin and Yang, it does not belong to the three talents of heaven, earth and man, it does not belong to the four phenomena of earth, water, fire and wind, and it does not belong to the five elements of metal, wood, water, fire and earth.
Its function is to shatter the origin of this world, annihilate vitality, drain spiritual power, and ban all life!
Boom!
In an instant, the chaos was shattered, the sky collapsed, and everyone turned into pottery figurines and parasites that hatched the evil spirits.
"Have you already evacuated without the slightest resistance from the immortal gods?"
Gu Cheng felt cold in his heart.
Although I expected that such a strategic retreat would inevitably be accompanied by countless sacrifices, I still felt shocked when I witnessed it with my own eyes.
In the main world, he turned the tide and saved the Han Dynasty, avoiding the tragic future of the Three Kingdoms' decades of war, the nine states and ten houses with nine empty houses, and the five indiscriminate China, and the Han people were reduced to two-legged sheep and were slaughtered.
But the resilience of the human race is extremely strong. No matter how miserable the times are, as long as we survive, we can thrive again.
But this is not the case in the final tribulation.
This is true extinction.
A magnificent world of immortal martial arts. In an instant, countless lives perished, not even a single root was left behind!
And the aloof immortal god obviously left early and threw himself into another big world, leaving only the ignorant mortals and those disciples who failed to cultivate and became the victims.
The same is true for the main world.
The immortals in the heaven, in order to protect themselves wisely, will inevitably give up on the human race first.
"The human race is fighting against the sky not only to strengthen themselves, but also to take the initiative in the catastrophe in the future, so as not to become an abandoned son and die in an unknown manner without even having a chance to fight!"
"Recapture the Nine Cauldrons of Dayu, recast the Qiankun Cauldron, suppress the Nine Provinces, and then use Empress Nuwa's method of balancing the six realms to drain out the energy of the end of the law one by one to form a demon clan, so as to reduce the impact of the catastrophe!"
Gu Cheng felt that there was a long way to go, so he withdrew his gaze and looked at the palace again.
It has been determined that the palace came here only when the catastrophe of the end of the world broke out.
In other words, it does come with a mission.
So, are there any patterns in the previous positions?
Gu Cheng tried his best to trace back, and unexpectedly found that before he came, this palace was located at the core of another great world that had been destroyed.
Continuing to push forward and backward, the palace changed its position ten times.
Along with this world, it has descended on eleven major worlds in total.
Further forward, there is a blank space and nothing can be seen.
The origins have been erased.
It is unknown how the remains of the ancestral witch entered, and whether the temple was refined by a certain being or whether it was a divine object born innately.
Gu Cheng didn't expect to find out the truth about the palace clearly by going back in time. After pondering for a moment, he held up a star map in his hand.
This is the star map of the heavens that he refined. Through the progress route of his subordinates and civil servants, it records the approximate location of the three thousand worlds to facilitate future exploration.
This star map is not on a simple plane, it contains the great avenue of space. Although it is not as good as a divine weapon, it is still a top-notch mysterious weapon.
At this moment, when Gu Cheng connected the eleven worlds that the palace had visited one by one, his expression immediately changed.
