415 The world lock
Before the immemorial age, people usually thought that the world was only as big as what they saw.
After Lu Huan created the path of immortal cultivation, this world began to turn from a Savage Land to a civilized one. It gradually developed into a Grand and advanced primordial immortal cultivation civilization.
After the World became a world of cultivators, people's understanding of the world also began to gradually change.
People began to realize that the world was diverse. Other than the main world, there were all sorts of small worlds, and even some secret realms that could not even be considered a world.
But all in all, whether it was a small world or a secret realm, they were both dependent on the origin world and could even be considered a part of the origin world, only they were relatively special.
After Lu Huan, the ancestor of the celestial Dao and the beginning of all magic, made a grave mistake and connected the boundless God World and the bottomless abyss with the main world, people suddenly realized that they were not unique.
Whether it was the boundless divine realm or the bottomless abyss, they were not as simple as just a world. It was impossible to verify their origin, but adjectives like boundless' and bottomless' already had some meaning.
Gods and demons were enemies for generations and were on opposite sides. However, the things they did seemed to be no different. They searched for new worlds throughout the multiverse, conquered new worlds, and eventually made them a part of themselves.
It was just that the way they conquered it was different.
Lu Huan had opened up the connection between the boundless divine realm, the bottomless abyss, and the main world, which had directly led to the collapse and destruction of the entire ancient civilization.
In the past, Lu Qing had seen a few of the memory fragments of the many primordial Immortals he had obtained. Almost all the primordial Immortals were fighting to the death with evil demons or heavenly gods.
The primordial Immortals should have won this war against the fiendgods. No matter how great the price they paid, to the point that no one in the future knew of the immemorial era's story, no matter if it was the heavenly gods or the evil demons, none of them had controlled this world.
Right now, Lu Qing had never expected that he would suddenly arrive at the legendary bottomless abyss.
He had originally thought that the other side of the passage would at most be a contaminated secret realm, which was similar to the secret realm in the depths of the East Sea where the Golden Dragon sacred King's inheritance was.
In the end, who would have thought that when they came over to take a look, they would find themselves in a real bottomless abyss!
However, in his field of vision, there were no signs of any creatures or monsters. Even after descending into the bottomless abyss, the feeling of being contaminated by the evil power did not strengthen further.
Even so, when Lu Qing realized where he was, he instantly felt his scalp go numb.
The psychological pressure was too great.

When Lu Qing had just broken through a while ago, he had felt that he was invincible. However, when he personally went to the abyss, he would have a deeper understanding of how weak he, and even the entire cultivation world, were in front of the bottomless abyss.
Back when the abyss had invaded, the origin world still had true immortals. There were also many cultivators at the divine sea and dongxu stages, and those at the Dharma plane could only be considered ordinary experts. But even so, the primordial immortal cultivation civilization was still destroyed by the invasion of the gods and devils.
In the current immortal cultivation world, Dharma power was the peak of a person's cultivation. If they were to go against the abyss, who would they fight?
Lu Qing did not have the slightest intention of exploring this unknown world. There was only one thought in his mind-to leave quickly and think of a way to seal this entrance even more tightly!
But in fact, he had no confidence in Yingying at all.
Previously, he had seen that the seals left behind from the ancient times had been corroded very badly. They were no longer of much use. More importantly, he had studied the immemorial seals for a while and realized that he could not understand them at all.
He wasn't a newbie in formations. He had a deeper understanding of formations and sealing techniques. But even so, he couldn't figure out what was going on with those immemorial seals, let alone repair or strengthen them.
As for the seal formation of the Dongyang temple left by the cui clan, he had to succeed. The cui clan's seal formation was well done, but it was still not enough to seal a passage leading to the abyss.
Lu Qing turned around and prepared to leave.
The passage he came from still existed. The passageway was not a physical entity, but a conceptual one. He could follow his breath to find the way home.
There's no need to leave in such a hurry, there's no danger here for the time being.
A voice suddenly made Lu Qing alert.
He looked in the direction of the voice and was surprised to see another him.
No, although Yingluo's appearance was almost exactly the same, her temperament seemed to be completely different.
Lu Qing did not say a word. He immediately threw out a beam of sword Qi. At the same time, he performed the heavensguard life skill and allowed the gray armor to cover his entire body. Most importantly, he started to inspect the state of his soul through the divine ghost technique.
When he saw someone who looked almost identical to him, Lu Qing's first reaction was to wonder if he had fallen into an illusion without realizing it.
However, the result of his self-examination was that everything was normal. The sword Qi He released passed through his other body, but it didn't cause any effect.
At the same time, the him' in front of him with a sinister smile on his face had no intention of attacking.
Don't be so alert. I'm not you, and I'm not here.
from your expression, you might have thought of something, Yingying. Yes, I'm lu Huan.
Lu Huan, Qianqian. Lu Qing softly muttered this name.
Lu Huan's name was no longer heard in the world today. However, Lu Qing had heard of this name from the White sword immortal when he first communicated with the remnant will of the White sword immortal in the Penglai Celestial Palace.
The name of the ancestor of the immortal Dao and the origin of all spells, Lao Ai, was really big.
Let's have a chat. Lu Huan smiled and said, I know you have a lot of questions. I'll try my best to answer them for you.
Lu Qing did not let his guard down. However, from the looks of it, this man who called himself Lu Huan and looked very similar to him did not seem to have any ill intentions.
Lu Qing thought about it and asked, Why are you here? Aren't you already dead?
Yes, I've died long ago. I'm only talking to you now because I've left you some information. So, I can't answer all of your questions. I can only tell you what I know.
what's the situation here in Dongyang City?
Dongyang City? I don't know where you're referring to when you speak of the eastern sun City. However, if you're referring to the passage to the origin world, I can tell you. This place is a world lock that locks the connection between the main world and the evil spirit world.
The world lock?
Lu Qing heard a new term.
He carefully searched his memories. In the information he had obtained in the past, he had never heard of a world lock.
What does the world lock mean? What if it was to seal the connection between the main world and the abyss? Then why was I able to come here from the origin world?
that's because the world lock is broken. Lu Huan sighed and began to explain to Lu Qing in detail.
Lu Qing's mouth opened wider and wider as he listened to Lu Huan's words.
The information that he had just received had subverted his world view.
This so-called world lock was like what the person suspected to be Lu Huan had said. It was a lock' that sealed the connection between the origin world and the abyss. Lu Huan had used his life as the price to install this lock. After his death, the 21 immemorial Celestials also contributed their own power to strengthen the world lock.
There were many world locks.
In the past, Lu Huan had made a grave mistake by opening the passage between the boundless deity world and the bottomless abyss and the origin world. After he realized his mistake, he sacrificed his life in an attempt to cut off the connection between the Three Realms.
And the thing that shut off the connection between the Three Realms was this so-called world lock.
After being locked, whether it was heavenly deities or demons, their connection with the origin world would become incomparably weak. They were unable to send more troops to the origin world.
However, the number of heavenly deities and demons that had come to the origin world was simply too great. After Lu Huan's death, the immortals who lacked a leader could only form the immortals Association on their own. The main force was 21 Immortals. They fought hard against the gods and demons of the world, killing and driving away these otherworldly visitors.
Many Immortals and countless ancient cultivators had died in the long war. As for the immortals, after almost eliminating all the powerful godfiends that still existed in the world, they embarked on the same path as Lu Huan. They continued to strengthen the world lock at the cost of their own lives.
Strictly speaking, the victors of the immemorial war were the humans. After all, they had successfully expelled the gods and devils. But to be honest, both sides could be considered to have died together. Although the gods and devils had been expelled, the ancient immortal cultivation civilization had also completely collapsed.
The efforts of the immemorial civilization and the immortals had paid off.
These world locks firmly locked the connection between the Three Realms and ensured that the origin world could no longer appear in the sight of gods and devils.
This was also the reason why the native world had not been invaded on a large scale by gods and devils after the primordial war.
but why can I suddenly pass through the world lock and come to the abyss? Lu Qing asked in confusion. Moreover, not too long ago, a large-scale demonic disturbance broke out in the origin world, including this time. The eastern sun city's Suan ni, which is the place where the passage is projected to the origin world, also had a demonic disturbance.
The world lock is about to break. Lu Huan threw out another bombshell.
In essence, the world lock is made up of two parts. One part was a lock. This lock had the effect of sealing and hiding the world. However, there was no lock' that could last forever. So, we thought of another way.
The lock can't be immortal, but the world can.
So, we provided a power for each lock. This energy is directly drawn from the origin world to supply energy to the lock.
In the current origin world, the path of the immortal Dao should already be very difficult to walk, right? It's already impossible to become an immortal. Even reaching the divine sea realm is extremely difficult.
Lu Qing nodded slightly when he heard this.
There was no need for the Xuanji of the divine sea stage, whose Dharma form was already hard to come by.
Lu Huan continued,
This is because the entire world's energy is charging these many world seals. Too much energy has been absorbed from the world, which is why your cultivation is so difficult.
And now, the countless locks of the origin world are still unceasingly seeking the power of the origin world. However, the lock itself has already been corroded by the power of the boundless divine realm and the bottomless abyss over countless years. It has already reached the extent of being damaged.
Wait! Lu Qing suddenly called for a stop. He had thought through some things, and his expression immediately became very ugly. So you're saying that the current power of the world, due to the existence of the lock', has a very low upper limit; But the lock is already unable to display its effects. Soon, the gods and devils will once again capture the origin world and descend once more?
That's right, Lu Huan replied with certainty.
F * ck! f * ck! Lu Qing suddenly cursed. He was flustered and exasperated.
He was 80% sure that the person in front of him was Lu Huan. Even so, the information he had just received made him not care about whether he respected Lu Huan or not. He directly asked, Isn't this a f * cking scam? Back in the ancient times, you Immortals couldn't even handle a fiendgod. What should we do now?
It was no wonder Lu Qing was scolding him.
In today's world, the strongest combat power was only at the Dharma plane. Previously, when he had just broken through, Lu Qing had proudly bragged that he was the best in the world and that he was invincible. However, he still had to have this bit of self-awareness. How could he compare to the immortals?
Lu Qing might not even be able to deal with cultivators at the divine sea stage from the primordial era, let alone Immortals.
If the gods and devils descended once more, wouldn't the entire origin world be completely defenseless and be destroyed?
What the hell!
Lu Huan exhaled for the third time. He bowed deeply to Lu Qing and said sincerely,
I'm sorry, she said.
Lu Qing's mood did not improve.
Sorry, Yingluo, what's the use of being sorry!
But he finally calmed down.
Now that you've appeared in front of me, surely you have a solution that you can tell me, right?
There is. Lu Huan said, but before that, you can unlock the world lock here first.
Lu Qing immediately became alert when he heard this.
You want me to open the world lock? Are you lying to me?
