Chapter 255: Transcendence (11）
It was Ning Changqing who successfully located the Jade Pool Sacred Land ruins. He gazed at the shattered immortal mountains and the countless fragments of broken Emperor weapons. The once paradise-like Jade Pool Sacred Land had turned into a desolate ghost domain.
Ning Changqing sighed. "Even the undefeated eventually fall to time. Forces that have endured for eternity cannot withstand the passage of years. If not for obtaining the Wheel of Time, I might have already disappeared in the long river of time."
Fortunately, in this life, he possessed one of the Nine Innate Supreme Treasures—the Wheel of Time. His future was limitless.
Ning Changqing walked through the ruins. The destruction of the Jade Pool Sacred Land carried great terror. Without his numerous methods, even a large group of Great Emperors would have fallen here.
He finally reached the depths of the Sacred Land, where a towering immortal tree that pierced through the ages stood. However, the tree had lost its former grandeur. Its laws and Dao essence were gone.
A terrifying existence had broken into this place and fought a great battle against the immortal tree. In the end, the tree had withered while the terrifying being's fate remained unknown. It might have been killed by the tree, or perhaps…It was still alive.
Ning Changqing sensed the familiar formations around him. Back then, he and the founder of the Jade Pool Sacred Land had jointly arranged these protective arrays. Even a powerhouse of his previous life's level might not have been able to break them.
With a casual wave of his hand, the grand array dispersed, granting him unobstructed passage. He had left preparations here long ago.
Sensing the presence of a living being, the ancient immortal tree—which should have been dead—suddenly bloomed with a soft green glow. It seemed to be reviving. Countless silhouettes of Great Emperors from across history began to emerge.
