Chapter 948: The Age of Immortal Chaos, the Collapse of Heavenly Laws, and the Hidden Heaven
Ling Ying's words surprised Mo Cheng very much, because he never expected that [Nanli Dao Realm] would actually ask for help from other countries and forces.
Although [Nanli Dao Territory] is not a common monarchy country, it is also a real big country. He thought that even if [Ten Directions Demon Bandits] invaded, it would be difficult to deal with, but it would not reach the point where it would need to seek external assistance.
"Is the Ten Directions Demon Bandits so strong that you have to seek help from outside?"
Mo Cheng couldn't figure it out no matter how hard he tried, so he had to ask the reason. Was it that the [Ten Directions Demon Bandits] were too strong, or the [Nanli Dao Realm] was too weak.
Ling Ying smiled bitterly. "Although the Ten Directions Demon Bandits have gathered here and have many powerful soldiers and generals, and their cultivation is also quite good, if it were just for the best, they chose to come on such a day..."
Ling Ying paused as she spoke, as if she was weighing something. The information she was going to talk about next was considered confidential in the [Nanli Dao Domain]. As the person in charge of the [Moon] area, she was very clear that this was not data and information that could be made public.
But she also knew that the [Nanli Daoyu] was on the brink of danger, and she needed to solve the [Ten Directions Demon Bandits] problem as soon as possible, otherwise if they interfered with what happened next, the consequences...
...It's unimaginable!
Ling Ying gritted her teeth and made a decision, "Please don't leak what I'm going to say next."
Mo Cheng did not shirk his responsibility and raised three fingers. "Mo Cheng swears that he will never reveal what he is going to hear. If he violates this promise, his inner demons will grow, and he will be abandoned by heaven and earth, and killed by gods and men alike!"
It could be seen from Ling Ying's expression that what she was about to say next would definitely be very troublesome and would cause trouble.
But Mo Cheng just likes this kind of thing. He knows very well that this type of thing is most likely to give rise to tasks.
"Oh, that's not necessary."
Mo Cheng swore decisively, and it also involved the inner demon, the oath to heaven and earth, which scared Ling Ying. A cultivator does not swear casually, it involves the inner demon and the oath to heaven and earth. Once it is violated, the behavior will really be as stated in the oath.
"It's okay. If the news is important, Mo Cheng will swear an oath to reassure you and me."
That's what she said, but originally Ling Ying just wanted Mo Cheng to promise not to leak what he heard. Ling Ying was shocked by the oath and asked unhappily, "Aren't you afraid that I will say it's just an ordinary matter and not worth keeping secret?"
"Hahaha, in that case, Mo Cheng will have no choice but to accept it, but I believe Ling Ying won't do that."
Mo Cheng smiled and didn't care about it. After all, even if the information he revealed was not worth keeping secret, it wouldn't be a big problem for him.
Ling Ying asked, "Do you know what the [Nanli Daoyu] looked like tens of thousands of years ago?"
Mo Cheng lowered his head in deep thought. On the way here, he had read quite a few books about [Nanli Dao Realm]. He also talked with people who knew about [Nanli Dao Realm]. So he was not completely in the dark about the situation in [Nanli Dao Realm].
It was just something that happened in [Nanli Dao Realm] tens of thousands of years ago, so the time span is really a bit long.
Mo Cheng shook his head, "Please tell me."
Tens of thousands of years ago, the Heavenly Palace was in turmoil, the Heavenly Law was broken, and the immortals, under the orders of the Emperor of Heaven, went down to the mortal world to experience the mortal world again, and brought back the Heavenly Law that had been broken and reassembled.
Although returning to the mortal world may seem simple, it actually means giving up one's cultivation and immortal body and starting over again. There is also no guarantee that an immortal who returns to the mortal world will be able to ascend again.
Naturally, not many immortals would be willing to do this kind of thing.
So the Emperor's approach at that time was very simple, decisive, and straightforward.
The Emperor of Heaven used his supreme magical power to forcibly cast all the immortals, including himself, down to the mortal world, forcing them to give up all their cultivation and magical powers and start over.
So on that day, the Heavenly Laws were broken, the Heavenly Palace disappeared, and there was no news from the upper realm for tens of thousands of years .
Only the [Haotian Mirror] representing the authority of the Emperor of Heaven was left to shock the three realms.
Among the immortals who were cast down to the mortal world, some accepted their fate and thought it would be no harm to experience the mortal world once more, while others believed that the Emperor of Heaven was unkind and in anger decided not to become immortals anymore, and instead planned to establish a heaven on earth in the human world.
There are even more extreme ones who think that since the Emperor of Heaven has also fallen into the mortal world, then naturally "the strong should be respected, and only heroes dare to take the lead", and they want to take advantage of the fact that everyone is on the same starting line and kill the Emperor of Heaven first.
No one knows how many immortals were cast down to the mortal world at that time, but the number was definitely not small.
At the same time, tens of thousands of years ago, this group of exiled immortals who were cast down to the mortal world had different ideologies and a fierce conflict broke out, or it should be called a "struggle for the orthodoxy."
During the turbulent times of war, some banished immortals wanted to ascend again, some were attached to the mortal world, some angrily founded the [Demon World], and some were struggling to find the whereabouts of the Emperor of Heaven.
When many ideas and positions collide, war naturally becomes the best solution.
The war was only recorded in the secret and ancient tradition that lasted for ten thousand years, and it was called in history: [Era of Immortal Chaos].
And [Nanli Daoyu] was a battlefield tens of thousands of years ago, and it was also a place for exiled immortals.
That banished immortal was invincible in the [Era of Immortal Chaos], but banished immortals are extremely difficult to kill. Only the Emperor of Heaven orders the [Immortal Execution Platform] to kill the immortal.
But the Heavenly Palace disappeared, and the whereabouts of the [Immortal Execution Platform] were unknown.
Even if the banished immortal in his own Taoist temple has extremely high cultivation level, he can only seal up many opponents through his great magic power.
Sealed in the [Nanli Dao Realm].
The whole story is not very long, and there are no particular contradictions in the logic, but Mo Cheng always feels that he has seen this type of story somewhere before.
"So you actually have a banished immortal who has been protecting you for tens of thousands of years, but recently for some reason you want to hand the [Nanli Daoyu] over to humans to handle, so not only do you not intend to take care of this matter, you even pretended to be dead and ran away, right?"
Ling Ying didn't say whether the banished immortal who used the [Nanli Taoist Realm] as his Taoist temple was still there, but Mo Cheng guessed that he was most likely there.
Mo Cheng has seen this kind of plot many times.
Mo Cheng muttered in a low voice, his voice was so soft that it seemed no one could hear him.
But Ling Ying didn't know why her body was shocked, and then she continued , "There was a seal where the exiled immortal was sealed, which has been frequently impacted in the past thousand years. Therefore, the chief of [Cong Ge] led the army to reinforce the seal, and they couldn't just leave."
Now Mo Cheng understood the situation in [Nanli Dao Territory]. When [Chernobyl] and [Fukushima Accidents] occurred in his own country, he had to give priority to dealing with this matter.
Compared to the banished immortal breaking the seal tens of thousands of years ago, although the [Ten Directions Demon Bandits] are troublesome, the [Nanli Dao Realm] does have to give priority to it and focus on dealing with the banished immortal's seal first.
