Chapter 381 – The Secret of Eternal Night, The Thousand Years’ Tribulation
“The Eternal Night Royal Clan?” This was the first time Yun Che had heard this name.
“The Five Great Sacred Lands have existed for far longer than the Seven Heavenly Xuan Realms, they have existed for thousands of years, or even tens of thousands of years, or perhaps even longer. Although the five great holy lands have always balanced and restrained each other, on the surface, they also support and unite with each other, and uphold the same idea …… that is to guard Tianxuan Continent, preventing the invasion of forces outside of the continent, and is the strongest and most important barrier in the entire continent, as well as not interfering with all types of strife within the continent, and thus is worshipped and worshiped by the continent’s ten thousand people. Worship and worship …… But, this by no means means means that they are all good people!”
Feng Qianxue raised his eyes to look at Yun Che and calmly said, “I have no right to judge whether the Holy Lands are good or evil, right or wrong, but my clan’s disciples must not be close to the people of the Heavenly Mighty Sword Domain for the rest of their lives, and this is a legacy that was left behind by the Icecloud Ancestor! Because back then, one of the five holy lands, the Eternal Night Royal Clan, perished under the vicious backstabbing of the Heavenly Mighty Sword Domain!”
Yun Che: “?”
“Among the Five Great Sacred Lands, the Eternal Night Royal Clan is the only family-type force that never recruits outsiders unless they are married, thus, among the Five Great Sacred Lands, the Eternal Night Royal Clan is also the most united and solid. Although there is occasional friction between the five holy places, but from no big grudges, but, a thousand years ago, the Tianwei sword domain of the new sword master on the throne …… at the same time is now the sword master Xuanyuan asked the sky, he was on the throne of more than a dozen years after the day, Yongyi royal family around the core of the land of a few small cities suddenly overnight by the black fog shrouded, all the people in the city, regardless of the powerful Xuan, or the old hand without the power of a chicken, the old man is the most united. All the people in the city, no matter powerful Xuan Shi, or the old and young women and children who are powerless, all died in the black fog……. Soon, all the spearheads pointed to the Eternal Night Royal Clan, because when the core Xuan Gong of the Eternal Night Royal Clan ‘Eternal Night Illusory Divine Record’ operates, it is the black fog that surrounds the body! Those who die under the ‘Eternal Night Illusion God Record’ also have their entire body blackened, and the black mist wraps around …… their body and doesn’t even dissipate for days.”
“…… “Hearing this, Yun Che already roughly understood something. The name Xuanyuan Wentian coming out of Feng Qianxue’s mouth even made Yun Che’s heart tighten …… because, his grandfather, Yun Canghai, was the one who folded under Xuanyuan Wentian’s hands! The Illusory Demon Realm Demon Emperor, who was also Yun Canghai’s master and friend, also died in Xuanyuan Wentian’s hands, and he said in a low voice, “Could it be that this is some kind of framing?”
“That’s right, it was vicious graft, but at that time, no one knew it was graft except for the grafter himself.” Feng Qianxue said, “Subsequently, the Heavenly Mighty Sword Domain first spoke out, calling the ‘Eternal Night King Clan’ a sinful demonic race that massacred innocent people in order to enhance their demonic power, and then, in the name of guarding the Tianxuan Continent and getting rid of the demons and defending the Dao, they united with the other three holy lands and conducted a siege against the Eternal Night King Clan… …Although the Eternal Night Royal Clan was powerful, it was simply impossible for them to fight against the union of the four holy lands, and they were ultimately exterminated. In the end, only the King of the Eternal Night Royal Clan remained. The King of the Eternal Night, under extreme resentment and sorrow, suddenly demonized.”
“Demonization?”
“That’s right. When all sorts of negative emotions reach an extreme, the rules of the power one possesses may also be negatively transformed, thus turning into a terrifying negative power. This kind of rumor has existed since a long time ago, but the King of Eternal Night, was the first person to truly ‘demonize’, and proved that that rumor wasn’t false. After all, his entire clan was exterminated, his wife and children were brutally murdered, he was bound to be hateful to heaven and earth, hateful to the Qiankun, and his demonization, even more so, solidified his name of ‘demon’, and he was killed by the other four Lords of the Holy Land in a joint strike. After his demonization, the soul actually also changed dramatically, the body destruction, the soul is a long time, and even can not be destroyed, so the Sun and Moon Divine Palace will be sealed soul coffins, the King of the eternal night of the hatred of the soul blockade, the only can open the sealed soul coffins of the key, but also be thrown to the 10,000 miles away, so that the King of the eternal night of the hatred of the soul can never be freed …… and now a thousand years! has passed, the King of Eternal Night’s hateful soul should have dissipated long ago now.”
Yun Che rested his chin in his hand and said, “Why did the Heavenly Mighty Sword Region frame the King of Eternal Night Clan? How does this benefit the Heavenly Mighty Sword Region? Since you know the truth, have the other three Holy Lands already known the truth as well?”
“It’s because of the Evernight Royal Clan’s guardian sword, the Heavenly Sin Divine Sword.” Feng Qianxue said, “Xuanyuan Wentian is a person with great ambition, he is bent on being invincible and becoming the sole lord of the world. And the Heavenly Sin Divine Sword is a divine sword that has been guarded by the Eternal Night Royal Clan for generations, and it is also the only ‘Sword of Jun Xuan’ and ‘Emperor of Swords’ in the Tianxuan Continent. It was rumored that if one could harness the power of the Heavenly Sin Divine Sword, one would be invincible in the Tianxuan Continent. However, for thousands of years, the Yongyue Royal Clan had never had anyone who could harness the Heavenly Sin Divine Sword, while the Heavenly Mighty Sword Domain used the sword as a weapon, and the sword as an honor, the people of the Heavenly Mighty Sword Domain had coveted the Heavenly Sin Divine General for a long time, and Xuanyuan Wentian was even more frantic in wanting to take it for himself, thus resulting in the vicious graft and the annihilation of Yongyue afterward. After that, the Heavenly Sin Divine Sword disappeared, no one knows where it fell …… and most likely, it has long fallen into the hands of Xuanyuan Ask Tian. Shortly after that, the other three Holy Lands also naturally noticed the end, knowing that this was perhaps a plot by the Heavenly Mighty Sword Domain, while wrongly destroying the Eternal Night Royal Clan, but since they are Holy Lands, even though they know that they are most likely wrong, and are even being taken advantage of by others, they can only make the mistake, and can never allow the name of the Holy Lands to be tainted.”
“Therefore, they categorically would not give the Eternal Night King Clan a proper name, instead, they increasingly proclaimed the Eternal Night King Clan’s name of the ‘Sinful Demon Clan’, and in order to prevent being traced back by future generations, they gradually wiped out all the records and traces of the Eternal Night King Clan’s existence throughout the entire continent. Now that a thousand years have passed, the name of the Eternal Night King Clan has long been forgotten under the cover of the Holy Land, and only in some of the clans that have been around for more than a thousand years are there extremely occasional records of it.”
These words from Feng Qianxue were all secret stories that were almost impossible to hear elsewhere. Yun Che naturally understood why Feng Qianxue wanted to tell him all of this, and after thinking for a moment, he said, “Taishang Palace Master, disciple takes offense and asks why a thousand year old holy land feud, and a forbidden truth that was covered up by the combined efforts of the Four Great Sacred Lands, would be recorded so exhaustively amongst our sects.”
“It is because, after the Eternal Night, there was once a life-saving favor to my Bingyun ancestor, Mu Bingyun. Although the Eternal Night Queen’s Xuan power was at its peak and her status was unparalleled, she was gentle and kind, and not only did she save the Ice Cloud Ancestor from the claws of a domineering Xuan Beast back then, but she also gave the Xuan Dan of the domineering Xuan Beast to the Ice Cloud Ancestor after killing it and gave the Ice Cloud Ancestor a lot of lifelong pointers that would benefit the Ice Cloud Ancestor, without the Eternal Night Queen saving her life and giving her pointers, the Ice Cloud Ancestor’s achievement of proudly looking down on the Cangfeng back then, and even today’s Ice Cloud Immortal Palace would not be there. Therefore, Ice Cloud ancestor regarded the eternal night after as a lifelong honored person and benefactor, she never believed that the eternal night royal family would be a ‘sinful demon race’. It’s just that the Ice Cloud Ancestor was incapable of redressing and avenging the Yongyue Royal Clan’s grievances, so she could only leave the truth behind and pass it down through generations in the Ice Cloud Immortal Palace, preventing the truth from sinking forever, and also alerting all Ice Cloud disciples that they must never be in the company of the Heavenly Mighty Sword Region!”
“Today, the Heavenly Mighty Sword Domain’s Sword Master is still Xuanyuan Wentian. With this sword master who is ambitious and has despicable and vicious methods, one can imagine how dirty the Heavenly Mighty Sword Domain will be, if you enter the Heavenly Mighty Sword Domain in the future …… I, Ice Cloud Immortal Palace, will cut off all ties with you.” Feng Qianxue said solemnly.
The ambitions of the Heavenly Mighty Sword Domain were clear to Yun Che, otherwise, his biological parents wouldn’t have been hunted down, his grandfather wouldn’t have died, and nineteen years ago, he wouldn’t have been stranded in Liuyun City. It was just that Feng Qianxue naturally wouldn’t know about these grudges. Yun Che’s heart rose and fell as he earnestly said, “Thank you for the Tai Shang Palace Master’s teachings, disciple remembers.”
“Good!!!” Feng Qianxue slowly nodded her head, “These words I told you, you must not speak of them with others, I will tell you because I also believe that you are able to distinguish between light and heavy, good and evil. In addition ……” Her gaze swept Yun Che and Xia Qing Yue: “Although you and Qing Yue have the name of husband and wife, however, before Qing Yue’s Ice Eerie Divine Skill is cultivated to the great circle, you categorically must not have the reality of husband and wife with her. The woman’s body of yin gas can be extremely good to assist the ice system Xuan Gong cultivation, virgin yin once lost, Qingyue Ice Yi Shen Gong cultivation is bound to be impeded, and may even produce a lifelong bottleneck can not be broken through. Qingyue is the future hope of my Ice Cloud Immortal Palace, I can never allow a difference in this area ……This point, I believe that you are equally divided between light and heavy.”
Xia Qingyue: “……”
The Ice Yi Divine Skill cannot be …… well before the Great Perfection, that is to say, after the Great Perfection it will be perfectly fine!
Yun Che was originally worried that the Ice Cloud Immortal Palace wanted Xia Qingyue to have to retain her Yuan Yin for the rest of her life, but this warning from Feng Qianxue was simply a naked hint. He hurriedly said, “Yes, disciple honors the teachings of the Supreme Palace Master.”
“Good!” Feng Qianxue slowly nodded his head and smiled, “I have finished saying what I need to say, frankly speaking, although you are the first ever male disciple of my palace, I am deeply comforted by your joining, after all, the two major young geniuses of the Cangfeng Continent have gathered in my Ice Cloud Immortal Palace.”
“The matter of you joining the Ice Palace will be kept quiet today, and the entire clan will be informed at the clan assembly tomorrow. If there is nothing else …… Qingyue, you take Yun Che around the Ice Palace, you can take him anywhere you can go. Yuxian, you stay.”
“Yes.”
Xia Qingyue got up and bowed to Feng Qianxian before leaving with Yun Che.
As soon as they left, Gong Yuxian got up and said in an urgent voice: “Senior, what exactly is the reason for your decision today? Is it really purely because of Yun Che’s strength and influence today?”
Feng Qianxian’s eyes were deep as she slightly tilted her head, her voice seeming to sigh like sorrow, “Yuxian, do you still remember the thousand-year prophecy left behind by Bing Yun’s ancestor back then?”
Gong Yuxian was stunned, then her eyes trembled violently, and her face changed for a moment, “Could it be that Senior Uncle is referring to the …… ‘Thousand Years’ Tribulation’?”
“That’s right.” Feng Qianxue closed his eyes and looked solemn, “Back then, the Ice Cloud Palace Master and the Black Fury Empire’s Heavenly Qi Scatterer were close friends. At that time, the Heavenly Chance Sect was in its heyday, able to pry into the Heavenly Dao and understand the Heavenly Chance, and the Heavenly Chance they pried into was almost omnipotent, and in the end, it was also sanctioned by the Heavenly Dao and exterminated. Ice cloud ancestor founded the ice cloud fairy palace, Tianji scattering people have peeped into the sky, told the ancestor of the ice cloud fairy palace will be a thousand years of glory, and after a thousand years there will be a big disaster, this disaster if you can get through, the ice cloud fairy palace will be 10,000 years of prosperity, if you can’t get through, in the world, there will be no more ice cloud of the name. And time above …… the millennium period has arrived. Nearly a year, I am constantly distracted, resting God when even nightmares, coupled with my palace suddenly appeared Qing Yue this kind of talent unusually high disciples, silent for a thousand years of ice razor God Gong is also once again appeared …… all kinds of abnormalities, seems to be in the prediction of the arrival of the millennium of the disaster.”
Gong Yuxian’s complexion faltered for a moment as he slowly sat down, “Is that why Senior Uncle went out of his way to break the rules of the sect and allow Yun Che to enter my Ice Cloud Immortal Palace, never to have one more point of resistance in dealing with the great calamity that may come?”
Feng Qianxue sighed, “Compared to the survival of the sect, what is overstepping the sect rules. Alas, I only hope that …… if the millennium’s catastrophe really comes …… the heavens can bless my Ice Cloud!”
