Chapter 660

From Gu Lianyue's mouth, Gu Chen slowly unfolded the story that had been sealed for a long time.

In ancient times, there had been a catastrophe. The specific cause of the catastrophe had long been unknown. It was only known that in that battle, a peerless powerhouse attacked the Ancient Dark Yellow Star from the depths of the universe and pierced through the entire ancient star.

The ancient star was pierced through a hole close to the earth's core, and this hole spread to the entire surface. The once vast continent disappeared without a trace, and most of the areas turned into oceans, leaving only a few isolated continents, including the Immortal Spirit Continent and the Kunlun Continent.

That catastrophe changed the landscape of the entire Ancient Dark Yellow Star. The huge hole inside the earth's core spread to the continental shelf, forming a special place like the Heaven Pit and the Earth Eye.

In other words, the Heaven Pit and the Earth Eye led to the earth's core of the Ancient Dark Yellow Star. It was an extension of the earth's core hole on the surface.

"The Heaven Pit and the Earth Eye actually had such an origin?"

Gu Chen was shocked when he heard this. What kind of divine power was needed to pierce through an ancient star? What kind of scale did the war in ancient times reach?

What Gu Lianyue said to him sounded like a fantasy story. If she told this to an ordinary person, they would definitely scoff and think it was a joke.

However, when Gu Chen thought of the broken surface of the Deep Demon Sea and the increasing gravity he felt as he gradually approached the Heaven Pit and the Earth Eye, he could not help but believe her.

"There are several places like the Heaven Pit and the Earth Eye on the Ancient Dark Yellow Star. It is said that there is a glacial abyss on the Heaven Burial Continent that also leads to the earth's core. These are all recorded in the ancient books left by the ancestors of my Gu Clan. Now on the continent, only the higher-ups of the 68 Immortal Sects and a few other forces know this secret, "Gu Lianyue added.

Gu Chen took a deep breath. "I understand the origin of the Heaven Pit and the Earth Eye, but you just said that this place is related to the opportunity to become an Immortal. What's going on?"

"In ancient times, before the catastrophe, the cultivation civilization of the Ancient Dark Yellow Star was extremely prosperous. The number of Immortals was far greater than today, and the connection with the universe was also very close."

Gu Chen nodded. He had heard of these things long ago, and from some of the descriptions in the Woeful Poison Scripture, he could see that he had also discussed this with Gu Lianyue.

"But after the catastrophe, everything changed. Because the celestial body of Ancient Cang Huang Star was pierced through, the environment of heaven and earth changed, and Essence Qi kept flowing away. That's why the number of immortals has dwindled since ancient times. Thirty thousand years ago, there were only thirteen immortals left on the ancient planet. "

"The legacy of the Immortal Dao isn't the only one affected. Even the martial legacy of the Ancient Era has been interrupted. There's also the six lineages of the Gu Clan. Although they were born after the catastrophe, the number of people who can cultivate the Overlord Body has been decreasing. The last person who possessed the Overlord Body was our ancestor, Gu Hao, who brought us to the Primordial Continent 85,555 years ago."

"Ever since my ancestor and the thirteen immortals, the environment of the Dark Yellow Ancient Star has become even worse. So far, no more Overlord Bodies or immortals have been born."

After the initial shock, Gu Chen calmed down and murmured. "I heard that the ancestor and the thirteen immortals disappeared not long after they migrated to the Primordial Spirit Continent, and I saw an ancestor with an Overlord Body outside the Heaven Crater Earth Eye. It seems like that person was Ancestor Gu Hao."

Gu Lian Yue nodded solemnly. "I'm afraid that's right. Do you know why the ancestor and the thirteen immortals entered the Sinkhole's Earth's Eye?"

Gu Chen shook his head.

"Since the ancient catastrophe, the Dark Yellow Ancient Star has become unsuitable for cultivation. The cultivators of the past have thought of countless ways to change this situation. There are two main ways."

"The first is that when the catastrophe came, the ancient continent fell apart. The ancient immortals also died, and the prosperous civilization was interrupted. Legend has it that the remains of the ancient continent are in the earth's core. There is still a powerful inheritance there, so many cultivators later chose to enter the Sinkhole's Earth's Eye when they had no hope of breaking through. They wanted to find the treasures left by the immortals, and then break through and become immortals. "

Gu Chen suddenly understood. This explained why so many outstanding people chose to enter the Sinkhole's Earth's Eye to gamble for opportunities.

"The second is that people set their sights on the distant universe. Since the Dark Yellow Ancient Star is no longer suitable for cultivation, many cultivators hope to leave the ancient star and enter the universe to find another ancient star with life. "

"In ancient times, people had a good understanding of the vast star field outside the Dark Yellow Ancient Star, so they chose this method at the first time. However, who would have thought that after the catastrophe, a Sky Ruin would appear in the sky above the Dark Yellow Ancient Star. That place is filled with storms of the Nine Heavens, and no one can pass through it. "

"The path to heaven was cut off, so all the cultivators who wanted to improve could only place their hopes in the Sinkhole's Earth's Eye."

"No, if the Sky Ruin can't enter the universe, then thirty thousand years ago …"

Gu Chen recalled the descent of the deities thirty thousand years ago.

"Looks like you've already figured it out. Thirty thousand years ago, the deities descended on the Dark Yellow Ancient Star in search of a certain treasure. My ancestor and the various alliances went all out, and only managed to eliminate them after much difficulty. However, it also led to the destruction of the Kun Lun Continent, and they couldn't even completely destroy the ruins left by the deities."

"After experiencing that war, ancestor Gu Hao and the thirteen immortals realized the vastness of the universe, and felt that they were insignificant and weak."

"According to the warning of the deities before they died, they were only the vanguard. In order to find that treasure, more experts would descend on the Dark Yellow Ancient Star sooner or later."

Gu Chen's heart trembled, and he could not help but touch his abdomen. Could the Mother Root of All Things in his dantian be that kind of treasure?

"Because of the threat of the deities before they died, in addition to the ancestor and the thirteen immortals' desire to break through, they made up their minds to leave the ancient star. They wanted to cross the universe in search of a higher realm, so that they could protect the ancient star from being bullied by outsiders."

"Since the deities could pass through the Sky Ruin and descend on the Sky Burial Continent, the ancestor felt that they could do the same, so they tried to ascend to heaven."

"However, they failed in the end. Just like the ancestors, the Sky Ruin was simply insurmountable."

Gu Chen blurted out, "So they also set their sights on the Sinkhole's Earth's Eye?"

Gu Lianyue nodded. "Not long after the ancestor and the thirteen immortals moved to the Immortal Spirit Continent, they entered the Sinkhole's Earth's Eye. I never expected that they would never return."

"After them, the destiny of the Dark Yellow Ancient Star seemed to have been exhausted, and no more Overlord Bodies or immortals were born."

"For the past thirty thousand years, whether it was my Gu clan or the thirteen immortal sects, many ancestors entered the Sinkhole's Earth's Eye one after another, either to extend their lifespans or to break through."
