Chapter 630: Chapter 554: The Black Altar, On the Verge of Collapse?

As that immense mountain was directly erased,

the scene inside became completely visible.

At this moment, Lu Yuan and Jiang Ningxian, both with serious expressions, gazed ahead.

In the near distance, there was a black altar, from which all the mist emanated.

This black was completely different from ordinary black, devoid of any light, incredibly deep.

It seemed that staring at it for too long would engulf one entirely.

More importantly, was what lay above.

There it revealed some extraordinary power.

This power was very mysterious, and it was precisely its emergence.

that caused the reversal of the power of laws in the surrounding world.

In sum.

This altar before them was undoubtedly left by the Outer Celestial Demon.

It could alter the rules of the world within a limited range, very formidable.

Even Lu Yuan, upon seeing it,

realized,

his power within was suppressed.

He frowned immediately and then asked: "Was there such an altar before in the Celestial Star?"

Regarding this, Lu Yuan was genuinely curious because if there was, it would mean there was a way to destroy it and sever the path for the Outer Celestial Demon to descend.

"No." However, Jiang Ningxian answered, continuing: "My father and I have cleared the power of the Outer Celestial Demon from the Celestial Star."

"But from beginning to end, we have never seen anything like this. It seems this is prepared for Earth, for the Galaxy Star Realm."

She looked at the black altar before her, a myriad of light flickering in her eyes, trying to see through it.

At the same time, searching in her mind, pondering what this thing could be.

But unfortunately,

she didn’t know at all, completely bewildered.

"Let’s try first and see what the situation is."

Lu Yuan thought a bit, then moved forward.

Beside him, Jiang Ningxian originally wanted to stop him, thinking it might be dangerous.

But considering his prowess, there should not be much of a problem.

So she halted, nodding slightly.

And Lu Yuan,

walked slowly to the black altar, releasing his Divine Thought.

Strands of brilliance surged around him, as if cloaking him in a garment of gold.

Before taking action, he wanted to feel out the situation. Only when his Divine Thought touched the black altar,

like a bull sinking into a swamp, he could perceive almost nothing, as if being completely devoured.

"Truly mysterious, it might not be of this world,"

thought Lu Yuan, then ceased his probing.

The Qi and Blood Power within him resonated outward.

At this moment,

having reached the Celestial Rank Immortal,

his Qi and blood were no longer purely golden,

but rather a mix of gold and crimson, appearing more majestic and grand, especially with the terrifying might produced by this Qi and blood.

As though capable of collapsing mountains and rivers, shaking the heavens and earth, such was his terrifying strength now.

And this was when not fully unleashed; otherwise, it would be even stronger.

After accumulating enough strength, Lu Yuan directly extended his palm,

the overwhelming power rushing towards the black altar.

Rumble~

A massive booming erupted,

shattering the surrounding mountains.

Yet that black altar remained unchanged.

The dense mist continued to spread just as before.

"It’s useless." Beside him, seeing this scene, Jiang Ningxian frowned deeply and couldn’t help but say: "Should we try again to see if there’s any other change?"

She had now confirmed completely that the descent of the Outer Celestial Demon relied on this black altar.

If there was a way to damage it, then subsequent matters would be much easier.

However, hearing this, Lu Yuan simply shook his head.

"No need, this is not a material of this world."

"With unknown origins, I cannot destroy it."

Adding another point: "Moreover, the Outer Celestial Demon has prepared for so long."

"How could it be easily destroyed? Even a supreme immortal couldn’t do it." 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂

Based on the altar’s reaction earlier, Lu Yuan already grasped the outcome.

Even deploying the Celestial Emperor’s Ancient Order wouldn’t be useful.

As such,

there is no need to waste effort.

He sighed and said again: "Let’s go, check out other places."

At this point, likely no one in today’s cosmos could deal with this altar.

In such circumstances, the only choice was to continue seeking knowledge.

Perhaps.

An alternative method could be conceived.

Jiang Ningxian grasped Lu Yuan’s meaning and nodded as well.

Subsequently, the two traversed the Void Passage, heading towards several other places with the Power of the Outer Celestial Demon.

Hengduan Mountain Range, Shennongjia, and other famous mountains and rivers, all were altars.

The number was quite large, over a dozen, yet impossible to destroy.

This proved,

that those Outer Celestial Demons would descend via this means.

"Occupying various famous mountains and rivers, then using this to reverse the rules of the entire planet, the situation is almost the same as the Celestial Star." Jiang Ningxian, upon understanding this, grew increasingly heavy-hearted.

And the key point is, they clearly knew where the problem lay, but couldn’t solve it.

Moreover, with dozens of famous mountains and rivers, if all were occupied and the laws reversed,

would it not mean that even before the war began,

Earth would fall directly?

"It’s not that simple."

However, at this moment, Lu Yuan proposed the opposite view: "Nowadays, the most important famous mountains and rivers, namely Tai Mountain and Kunlun, have not shown any unusual signs."

Both before and after the anomaly, these two places remained extremely important.

So significant that they could not be bypassed according to his thinking, the Outer Celestial Demon would want to act.

They would want to completely reverse the Earth’s rules.

It was impossible to proceed without including Tai Mountain and Kunlun.

At least as Lu Yuan saw it, it must be so, and yet these two key places are not included in the plan.

"Then what do you mean..." Jiang Ningxian, puzzled, unsure of what he was trying to convey.

Lu Yuan smiled slightly: "You must know, back when the Outer Realm Creatures descended on Earth, came to the Galaxy Star Realm, how much effort they put in to finally succeed, even you, completely suppressed your cultivation."

"The forebears, knowing long before of the Outer Celestial Demon’s existence, might also have prepared this precaution."

"Therefore, some of our worries are unnecessary; we just need to wait for those beings to descend."

This was Lu Yuan’s speculation, also his ongoing thought.

With such importance of Tai Mountain and Kunlun,

yet not in the Outer Celestial Demon’s plans.

Even the Eternal Race and Ji Family have never revealed anything about it.

There are two possibilities: one, they consider it unimportant, or two, they have no means regarding those two places, and the first is clearly impossible, so now.

Only the second remains.
