Guarding the River of Time

Chapter 108: The Ruined Divine Realm and the Lost Ancient History


Upon entering Broken Valley Village, I found that this village was very small, with only about a dozen households.

Li Changxiao followed behind the middle-aged man with white hair and noticed that he walked with a slight limp, as if his leg had suffered a severe injury.

It was confirmed: this white-haired man must be a significant figure from the Divine Realm. Having sustained serious injuries, he was recuperating in this small village, and I happened to stumble upon him.

Being called a waste by a retired and recuperating big shot from the Divine Realm somehow didn't feel as bad anymore.

....

"Senior, your injury?" Li Changxiao couldn't help but express concern and asked, "I have some medicinal herbs and elixir pills here, I wonder if they could be of any help to you, Senior."

The first step to rise is definitely to establish a good relationship with a big shot from the Divine Realm. My luck seems to be just as good here in the Divine Realm; randomly finding a village, I would encounter a big shot from the Divine Realm.

"It's incurable, no need to waste any more effort on it."

The white-haired man merely replied faintly.

Finally, he brought Li Changxiao to an unused, empty wooden house in the village, turned around, and said to Li Changxiao, "You can stay here from now on."

"Since you're new here, I also need to remind you of something: this world isn't as safe as you imagine, don't wander out of the village needlessly."

The white-haired man advised Li Changxiao.

"Thank you for the warning, Senior, I am Li Changxiao."

Li Changxiao introduced himself confidently.

"Bai Qiu, there's quite an age difference between us, just call me Uncle Bai from now on."

Bai Qiu saw that this young man was rather smart, and thus showed a bit more patience.

"Where do you come from?" Bai Qiu thought of something and asked.

At this moment, Li Changxiao knew he couldn't reveal that he had ascended from another realm, as many native cultivators are somewhat averse to outsiders, so he prepared to make up a place casually.

"Don't bother making something up."

"Just say it directly, which world, which Immortal Domain are you from?"

Bai Qiu saw right through Li Changxiao's thoughts.

Hearing this, Li Changxiao's eyes widened, an incredulous look on his face: "Could it be, you have also ascended, Senior?"

Upon these words, Bai Qiu gave him a sidelong glance, this clever boy was clever, yet sometimes not very bright.

"Nonsense."

"This isn't a secret; no need to hide it."

Bai Qiu slowly remarked.

"Cyan Ancient Immortal Realm."

Since it was put this way, Li Changxiao had no need to hide anymore and said it directly.

"Cyan Ancient Immortal Realm?" Bai Qiu stroked his chin, trying to remember something, then eventually couldn't think of anything and smacked his lips: "What a garbage Immortal Domain, I've never heard of it."

Upon hearing this, Li Changxiao involuntarily swallowed.

Gar...bage Immortal Domain?!

In Elder Bai's eyes, the Cyan Ancient Immortal Realm is considered garbage?

"May I ask, Uncle Bai, where are you from?"

Li Changxiao probed cautiously.

"Great Woe Immortal Realm." Bai Qiu spoke these four words and merely heaved a sigh heavily.

Upon hearing "Great Woe Immortal Realm," Li Changxiao immediately closed his mouth.

Indeed garbage, Cyan indeed garbage, he shut his mouth, became honest.

While in the Cyan Ancient Immortal Realm, he had heard legends of the "Great Woe Immortal Realm," an ancient Immortal Domain that has existed for hundreds of eons, even leaving legends behind in Cyan Ancient Immortal Realm, which is separated by unknown worlds—it showed how formidable the Great Woe Immortal Realm is.

In ancient texts from Cyan Ancient Immortal Realm, it is recorded that the Great Woe Immortal Realm is already infinitely close to some Lower Divine Realm.

No wonder Elder Bai gave such a strong sense of oppression; he ascended from the Great Woe Immortal Realm.

"So Uncle Bai is from the Great Woe Immortal Realm!"

Li Changxiao expressed genuine admiration, not flattery.

Hearing this, Bai Qiu just shook his head with a wry smile, "Then what of the Great Woe Immortal Realm?"

Finishing, he pointed at the empty wooden house ahead, saying, "This wooden house you'll stay in once belonged to a senior from the Desolate Ancient Immortal Realm."

After the words fell, Li Changxiao spun around, looking at the plain wooden house ahead.

Goodness, Des...Desolate Ancient Immortal Realm?!

This Immortal Realm is even older than the Great Woe Immortal Realm. It is said that when the Desolate Ancient Immortal Realm existed, the Great Woe Immortal Realm had yet to come into being; it's an ancient Immortal Realm from mythological legends.

It seems that this tiny Broken Valley Village hides two dragons!

"Then where did this senior go?" Li Changxiao asked.

At those words, Bai Qiu waved his hand and said, "As for where he went, you'll slowly come to understand later."

"In any case, this world is very dangerous, stay in the village as much as possible, focus on cultivation here."

Saying this, he turned and left.

Li Changxiao decided to live in this wooden house first.

That night.

Sitting cross-legged on the bed cultivating, Li Changxiao slowly opened his eyes, exhaling a heavy breath.

He stood up, walked to the window sill, and looked up at the bright moon in the night sky.

Then, he noticed, there were actually one, two, three... seven, eight, nine!

A total of nine moons!

Is this the Divine Realm!

At this moment, Li Changxiao felt very calm and pleased.

A new world, a new journey, a new starting point, everything seemed full of hope, full of challenges. In the Cyan Ancient Immortal Realm, after being invincible for several thousand years, his ancient, uneventful heart began beating again at this moment, and the cooled blood started to boil.

His goal is to make his name in the Divine Realm, to stand at the pinnacle of the Divine Realm!

I wonder.... where Blood Venerable and Elder Gu Xi are now and how they are doing. But surely their luck isn't as good as mine; right at the beginning, I encountered a big shot from the Divine Realm to guide me.

About this, Li Changxiao said, Blood Sang, Gusang, so sorry, I'm starting with a heavenly hand.

At this point, he noticed that on the wooden table by the window sill, there were several books placed.

He went over, sat down, and started flipping through these books, discovering that most of them were about the history of this Divine Realm.

Seeing this, joy filled Li Changxiao's heart.

Going to a new world, the primary task is to understand the structure, history, and so on of this world.

These books exactly documented some of this Divine Realm's history.

Thus, Li Changxiao found a book named "Chronicle of the Divine Realm" and started reading....

On the first page, it typically records the oldest and most ancient historical events of the Divine Realm.

[Twenty thousand years ago....]

Seeing the words "Twenty thousand years ago," Li Changxiao widened his eyes and repeatedly confirmed this was indeed the first page.

What the heck??

Why is the history of this Divine Realm so short, only recording as far back as twenty thousand years!?

Why is the history of this Divine Realm even not as long as my age???

It couldn't be; the history of the Cyan Ancient Immortal Realm is reckoned in "epochs," so why is this higher-grade Divine Realm counted in "years"—it's too unreasonable.

With a heart full of doubt, Li Changxiao slowly flipped open the second page....
