Chapter 1674: Chapter 20: Companions
“Huai Xu Heavenly Dao…”
After a brief moment of confusion, Gu Yeqi nodded, as An Jing wanted to know, she would answer: “Others might be completely puzzled, but I do know a bit about this matter.”
She raised her hand, scattering light dots to form a map of the Sky Islands, then pointed to a long chain of islands towards the lower side: “Back then, after the Heavenly Collapse, Ming Peak Master was forced to ascend, and as the strongest person who could enter the Great Wilderness Realm from Mingguang Peak at that time, I took over the burden from the old man and became the commander-in-chief of the Bright Mirror Army, later joining the Desolate Alliance as a high-ranking member.”
With just a few words, she spoke of the hardships of a hundred years, but Gu Yeqi’s words seemed sparse and ordinary, just casually mentioned: “After mastering the data of the Desolate Alliance, several Heavenly Venerates in the sect detected something extraordinary.”
“The Heavenly Collapse shattered the main continent of the Great Wilderness, turning it into billions of fragmented Sky Islands. Naturally, the Earth Vein on the Sky Islands, and the Spirit Vein in the Heavenly Sea also shattered and dispersed.”
“Over a century, the Heavenly Sea reformed, gradually constituting new Spiritual Evil Nodes, among which some special Spiritual Evil Nodes would form many invisible networks existing in the Heavenly Sea, that is, Spirit Veins, which must rely on entities, that is, clusters of Sky Islands, even entire chains.”
“The headquarters of Desolate Alliance, which is where my True Spirit Body resides, on seventeen Sky Islands, along with three thousand small Sky Islands scattered around, are remnants of the Central Spiritual Vein [Central Heaven Core] of the old Great Wilderness Realm, still possessing incredible Divine Power today. My ability to create a Divine Wood Body owes much to this Spirit Vein power.”
Speaking here, Gu Yeqi lightly pointed, and the map enlarged. The originally slender chain of islands turned into a grand Great Wall made of nearly a thousand Sky Islands: “For example, the Void Sealing Array [Chonggen Great Wall] surrounding the Light of the Abyss is also based on the new Spirit Vein [Great Illusion Sky] born after the Heavenly Collapse — this formation is almost natural, we at the Desolate Alliance merely fortified it several times so that the Spirit Vein power can be better utilized.”
“It can twist all ’intentions’ leading towards the Light of the Abyss. As long as the Great Wall exists, anything, whether intentional or not, as long as it approaches the Light of the Abyss, will be unsuccessful for various reasons, or even perish directly, and fall into eternal illusion.”
“This is twisted based on Cause and Effect; without nearly infinite traits, not bound by Cause and Effect, it’s impossible to crack this unless being a Heavenly Venerate.”
“But as of now, where are the Heavenly Venerates in the Great Wilderness Realm? Thus, almost nothing can approach the Light of the Abyss.”
“No…” An Jing looked at the map Gu Yeqi created and turned his head as if wanting to see something outside the Pure Dao Forging Platform: “There is.”
He said: “Dragon Remains Battleship, the Dragon Clan of Great Wilderness holding the Chrono-Light, and the remains of Yinglong Emperor, transformed into a battleship with its True Spirit Armament… It can pass through Chonggen Great Wall. You rely on it to maintain the Great Wall Formation, and evil demons want to seize it for this reason as well.”
Having said this, An Jing fully understood the implication in Gu Yeqi’s words. He laughed, looking at the girl who also smiled and watched him: “Ultimately, the Great Wilderness Realm has numerous Heavenly Venerates and beings close to Dao. In the Great Realm of All Heavens Lord, perhaps those Heavenly Venerate relics not as complete as Yinglong Emperor’s remains cannot pass through Chonggen Great Wall, but there are always some things that can pass through.”

“After the Heavenly Collapse, the continent shattered, thousands of Sky Islands dispersed into the Heavenly Sea. If calculated randomly, surely there are countless material remnants of continents flying towards the defensive line of the Light of the Abyss. But Spiritual Vein Great Illusion Sky will shift or bounce off all things without special traits. Therefore, anything capable of passing through it and approaching the Light of the Abyss must possess characteristics of Heavenly Venerates or beyond!”
“Among those things, perhaps some are indeed related to Subdue Evil or Embracing the Void!”
An Jing concluded: “As long as I ride the Dragon Remains Battleship, I can enter the Chonggen Great Wall and seek them out!”
“Yes, Eldest Senior, even before I finish speaking, you understand it all.”
Regarding An Jing’s acumen, while Gu Yeqi respected and found it only natural, she still smiled and shook her head: “But actually, you don’t need to look for them — trust us, we’ve already prepared everything for you.”
“Those special Spirit Veins and Sky Islands potentially having Heavenly Dao Fragments or Subdue Evil power have been identified and recorded over the past decade, and extremely strong fortresses were built upon them.”
“Among them, those related to Embracing the Void, I checked several times myself to confirm their deep relation with Huai Xu Realm.”
“About this, Qinghan and Old You probably don’t know.”
“Are you not telling me, Ye Qi?”
Upon hearing this, Bai Qinghan frowned slightly. Before she could criticize, You Ruhui spoke first, in a tone of surprise: “What do you mean, Old Gu? You’ve been keeping this from us? These items possessing Heavenly Venerate or Heavenly Dao Fragment power, aren’t they what the Heavenly Venerates from outside are talking about…”
“Yes.” Gu Yeqi didn’t wait for You Ruhui to finish before she nodded directly: “It’s indeed the so-called ’Opportunity of Unity’.
“Of course, the greatest Opportunity of Unity lies in the Light of the Abyss and within the Huai Xu Divine Ship itself. But other Heavenly Dao Fragments and even the presence of Subdue Evil might inspire some of the strongest Heavenly Venerates or even Heavenly Demons… Hence, to prevent accidents, our Desolate Alliance has been heavily guarding Chonggen Great Wall and hardly divulge these information externally.”
