CHAPTER 484: CHAPTER 498: THE PREDECESSOR OF THE SUPREME INTERFACE
"Suppressing something? What are they suppressing?"
Despite being the most powerful interface among all realms in the Supreme Interface, it is not yet fully controlled by the Cultivators.
At least the existence of uncharted regions remains a lingering unease for those from the All Things Realm sitting loftily above.
Even as the mightiest of the myriad realms, they are helpless against these uncharted regions.
"Suppressing what? Hehehe." The old monk let out a sinister laugh.
Mu Can noticed that the old monk’s body was slowly changing.
A strange black mist began to coil from under him, turning his feet pitch black.
Mu Can stepped back; above the black mist, he sensed something both familiar and foreign.
It was the power of the world’s Origin, yet it clashed with the actual power of Origin.
"What is this?" Mu Can’s face was grave.
Why is it that both the Three Realms and the Supreme Interface always like to suppress some bizarre things?
"I don’t know, but two thousand years ago, this power began to awaken at night, slowly eroding this ancient temple, having an effect even on me within the painting."
After living in this ancient temple for a thousand years, Miao Zhen had a quiet night in the conflict-ridden uncharted regions.
There were no ghostly battles nor humanoid creatures fighting the high skies, yet the silence carried a suffocating force.
"After that day, I noticed the seal beneath this temple gradually loosening. This black mist has been seeping out bit by bit each year, unavoidable and irremovable."
"I feel it’s an aura of destruction. Once what’s beneath breaks its seal, the entire Supreme Interface will be affected, causing even turmoil across all realms."
Master Miao Zhen waved his hand and the black mist at his feet slowly dissipated, hidden away.
"I once heard from the old master that as the core of all realms, the Supreme Interface has the most perfect Laws, but even those Laws have flaws. Within those flaws, he foresaw the future."
Wang Cai watched as Master Miao Zhen slowly spoke.
"Oh? Did Tian Di also make this discovery?" Miao Zhen looked at Wang Cai, asking with a surprised expression.
"No wonder, Tian Di always had the strongest talent among us, and the most likely to break through the All Things Realm, but his nature is too whimsical, otherwise he could’ve transcended life and death already," Miao Zhen lamented, recalling an old acquaintance from his memories.
"I don’t know, the old master has disappeared. He said he was looking for a way to save all the realms, even mentioned that if calamity breaks out, the Supreme Interface will be the source of all disasters," Wang Cai narrated matter-of-factly.
Before, he hadn’t taken these things seriously, believing that those of the All Things Realm would handle it, but now, he recalled this point.
"It seems he also realized it; surely, he was the strongest among us," Master Miao Zhen spoke slowly.
"The old master was always exploring the All Things Realm, as if searching for something."
There was something Wang Cai didn’t say; the Reincarnation Pearl was refined during that time, and he was adopted by Tian Di during that process.
"He guessed right; according to the corrosion of the seal, in about another three thousand years, the entire seal will break completely, and this temple will be utterly nonexistent," Miao Zhen laughed with a helpless and somewhat relieved expression.
"What kind of disaster is it?" Mu Can spoke up, thinking it better to understand a disaster that might affect all realms beforehand.
Moreover, he was slightly afraid due to feeling something familiar within that wisp of black mist.
"Complete destruction, where even the darkness gets devoured, the entire sky will fall, and the land will plunge into infinite darkness. The most powerful Cultivators might manage to cling to life, but those below the All Things Realm will be devoured by darkness. In the end, darkness will spread from the Supreme Interface to all realms, sparing nowhere."
Master Miao Zhen’s voice sent a chill down Mu Can’s spine.
The entire earth plunged into darkness, the sky no longer exists, all life devoured, the world falling silent, even Void Creatures not spared, time itself seeming to pause.
"No... I don’t want such a future," Mu Can shouted loudly.
"There might be a way to save this world; I summoned you here to spread this message and see which old friend’s disciple has reached the Supreme Interface," Master Miao Zhen said.
"Might be? Don’t you have a way?" Wang Cai looked at Master Miao Zhen and asked.
"I, a person confined here, do not have a method to save the world; I just wanted you to inform those in the All Things Realm to prepare early."
Master Miao Zhen has no other option; such a colossal calamity cannot be reversed by one or two from the All Things Realm.
"I have a speculation, a disaster like this has occurred once below this land, those who rise to the sky and fight at night, are probably strong beings from that era."
Mu Can was startled by Master Miao Zhen’s words.
Right, the All Things Realm is not the pinnacle of this world, otherwise, the Reincarnation Pearl wouldn’t have appeared.
If there was a world existing before the Supreme Interface, then all problems would be explained.
Only beings far stronger than the Supreme Interface could have created something that evolves the Reincarnation Pearl.
According to Wang Cai’s sensing, if Mu Can unseals all nine layers of the Reincarnation Pearl, it would undergo a groundbreaking transformation, combining nine layers into one, unrivaled under heaven.
"Yes, if my guess is correct, then there is still hope for the Supreme Interface," Miao Zhen’s expression was complex.
"Can we save you?" Mu Can looked at Miao Zhen.
"Save? I am bound here by this temple suppressing evil; I cannot leave," Master Miao Zhen sighed.
Over these three thousand years, if not for his profound Buddhist cultivation, he would have gone mad, being trapped here is indeed no simple matter.
"Go ahead, I’ll send you two away; your strength is not yet sufficient to get involved in this matter. Never come back to the uncharted regions again," Master Miao Zhen gently waved his hand, a Teleportation Array lighting up in front of the two.
