My gorgeous wife Chapter 2343 - 2311: Unspeakable Taboo
Previously on My gorgeous wife...
In the Jianmu Universe, there are no Origin Realm powerhouses.
The same is true for the Kunmu Universe where Misty Dao Saint resides.
Powerhouses of the Origin Realm are not so easily born. Although their universe is vast and boundless, countless times better than the large and small universes created by Origin Realm powerhouses, it still falls far short compared to a truly complete universe.
And currently, amidst the vast nihility, the only universally acknowledged complete universe is a singular one.
That is the Tree Realm Universe.
Legend has it that only in a complete universe can an Origin Realm powerhouse be born.
Other universes, it’s not that it’s impossible, it’s just exceedingly difficult.
"Master," at this moment, the youth Luoo Feiyang couldn’t help but say: "Why don’t we just send him back to the Cosmic Ruins? Anyway, he came out from there, sending him back should be fine..."
"Smack!" Before he could finish, Luoo Feiyang received a slap on the back of his head from the elder: "Didn’t I just say something you forgot so quickly? The man has not acted against us out of virtue; we agreed to help and found him a place to rest, this is compassion!"
"I thought you were joking, Master..." said Luoo Feiyang, quickly hiding behind the young girl, as if afraid to get another slap.
"Forget it." The elder shook his head: "If it’s a blessing, it won’t be a disaster; if it’s a disaster, it can’t be avoided."
"The vastness is boundless, and the universe has its own operating rules," the elder glanced at the youth still lying on the ground, seemingly in a deep sleep, and shook his head: "In the past, the Cosmic Ruins were once the center of all living beings amidst vast nihility."
"All the large and small universes were also born from there. But eventually, didn’t such a prosperous place end up being destroyed as well?"
"Moreover, I’ve heard some ancient legends, saying that even the universes we know now also came from the Cosmic Ruins. And the locations of these universes were merely a piece of nihility in the past."
"Of course, these are things of the past." The elder spoke slowly: "We don’t know what is truly hidden inside the Cosmic Ruins, but it indeed seems extraordinary."
"Then, Master, what do we do now..." a middle-aged man spoke.
"Let’s go, bringing him here was the most we could do, what happens next depends on him. Yet I always feel that this person should not be one who delights in killing." The elder furrowed his brow as he spoke.
"Let’s return and discuss with the elders of our own universe about considering a retreat route. In case one day the Cosmic Ruins undergoes any drastic changes, I’m afraid not a single one of our remaining universes will be able to escape."
"Grandfather, what about the Tree Realm Universe? It’s a complete universe and has Origin Realm powerhouses," questioned the young girl in confusion.
"A complete universe?" The elder couldn’t help but sneer: "Although I haven’t seen it with my own eyes, I’ve learned some information from a certain Origin Realm elder. During the battle when the Cosmic Ruins truly became ruins, countless complete universes were destroyed, and hundreds of Origin Realm powerhouses accumulated over countless timeframes died out almost entirely. Moreover, there are tales of powerhouses surpassing the Origin Realm falling. Do you think a later evolved complete universe can withstand such frightening catastrophe?"
At these words, everyone’s hair stood on end simultaneously.
What kind of great disaster was that?
Hundreds of Origin Realm fell, and countless complete universes were destroyed...
"Master, is there a realm beyond the Origin Realm? Isn’t the Origin Realm the ultimate peak of cultivation civilization?" Luoo Feiyang asked in confusion.
"To you, to us, it indeed is," Misty Dao Saint nodded and said: "Indeed, there is no powerhouse of such level existing now. But not existing now doesn’t mean they never existed."
Seeing the youth still full of confusion, the elder patiently asked: "Let me ask you a question. What was there at the beginning for us cultivators?"
"The beginning for cultivators?" Luoo Feiyang hesitated for a moment, then nodded: "It should be the primitive innate beings nurtured by the universe, right? Aren’t you, Master, an innate being?"
"Yes." Misty Dao Saint nodded: "Then let me ask you, what existed before the innate beings?"
"Before the innate beings." Luoo Feiyang furrowed his brows: "That should be the universe, right? Our universe birthed the innate beings many years after it was born."
"Then, what existed before our universe?"
"Before our universe..." Luoo Feiyang rubbed his chin: "Our universe is said to have originated from the Cosmic Ruins, so it should be the universe over there, right?"
At this point, both the middle-aged man and the young girl displayed thoughtful expressions.
Only Luoo Feiyang had a conceited expression on his face, seemingly showing off his knowledge.
The elder’s face darkened: "Then, let me ask you finally, before all the universes in the Cosmic Ruins were born?!"
"Before all universes were born?" The youth was startled.
The next moment, a term that only exists in imagination without being ever proven to truly exist appeared in his mind.
"Master, you mean..."
"All right, shut up." Misty Dao Saint didn’t want to say more: "That’s enough for today. Such existences are not for us to fathom. Even if that prosperous era has passed for countless ages, no one knows of their existence."
"I understand." This time, Luoo Feiyang finally stayed silent.
Even Misty Dao Saint’s cunning granddaughter, An Xiaoyi, said no more.
After all, they were powerhouses of the Heaven and Earth Realm. Even if they were somewhat dense, they knew these topics were taboo and shouldn’t be discussed lightly.
"Let’s... go."
The elder took one last glance at the youth sleeping so peacefully and nodded before quickly departing with the few apprentice descendants.
"The Jianmu Universe is indeed a nice place." Flying amidst the starry sky, the elder couldn’t help but nod repeatedly. The Jianmu Universe had no planets; all they could see were massive planes separated by space.
These planes are called ’planes’ in the Jianmu Universe.
Each plane develops independently without interference, and only in rare special cases does ’traversing’ occur, leading one to another plane.
In each plane, once a cultivator breaks through the Palm Realm, they can bypass the plane’s restrictions, traversing freely between planes or even leaving the Jianmu Universe altogether.
Of course, the prerequisite is that these individuals can survive outside the universe on their own.
The elder only took a brief look and quickly left with the group.
As An Xiaoyi suggested, he really didn’t want to interact with Poem Shadow Dao Saint of the Jianmu Universe.
However, what the elder didn’t know was that shortly after they left, a woman in a flawless green dress appeared on the plain of the continent they had just left, curiously observing the youth who seemed lazily asleep on the ground.
The youth’s robe was half black and half white, his hair the same, making him appear somewhat bizarre.
"For that old man Misty to personally bring him to the Jianmu Universe, this person... must be extraordinary."
"But... there’s no aura at all, not even any soul fluctuation. Could this be a dead person?"
