Destiny is ashes

Chapter 964 The Dividing of Cosmic Light Descends upon the Realm of Radiant Scales (53, the order was wrong just now, please refresh)
"Sister Jin, you should have said so earlier!"

An Jing couldn't quite figure out the reason for a moment, so he could only immediately let go of Jin Yanhua's hand. After leaving him, the spatial turbulence around Jin Yanhua became much milder, and the changes in the cosmic light on the scales immediately stopped.

However, as a price, Jin Yanhua's figure also became illusory, seemingly about to disappear into the rushing light of the universe, causing An Jing to gasp in shock: "What on earth is going on?"

"I don't know either!" Jin Yanhua was also at a loss. The Dao of the Cosmic Light was obviously something that the Dragon Clan understood best, but coincidentally, as a dragon born from the womb, Jin Yanhua did not inherit the Cosmic Light Divine Power of the current Dragon God. She said helplessly, "In short, this power seems to want to separate us. Anjing, it seems I have to take the first step!"

At the same time, a dark and gloomy voice rang out: "The Scale Realm... no, the Ancestral Dragon Scale is allocating time..."

The girl spoke softly, then looked up at the three of them flying through the gate to the Realm of Radiant Scales: "The will, it is alive, or rather... it has not completely died!"

"I see!"

You Ruhui murmured to himself, his tone ethereal, much like An Jing's state during the 'Apocalypse': "Although we all entered at the same time, the time we can stay in the Radiant Scale Realm is different..."

"This is a trial. The trials of the Scale Realm have not ended because of the anomaly. The Ancestral Dragon Scale... still awaits the geniuses who can pay homage to it!"

"The Realm of Scales is fair!"

At this point, You Ruhui's gaze sharpened. She ended the Apocalypse, her golden eyes gleaming with understanding: "Anjing, Sister Jin, let go. This is the will of the Ancestral Dragon Scale!"

“Each of us will enter different time flows and different areas in batches. I am relatively weak, so I will enter earlier. You and Sister Jin will enter the Zhaolin Realm later than me. This is an advantage given to me by the Ancestral Dragon Scale, which allows me to grow in it and eventually have the opportunity to pay homage to Him!”

"So that's how it is!" Jin Yanhua exclaimed, her figure almost disappearing. "When Jin Yuantian conducts advanced exploration missions, similar situations occasionally occur in the cave heavens, but nothing is as terrifying as the Zhaolin Realm..."

"Anjing, Ruhui, take care. I'm taking my leave now! See you in Zhaolin Realm!"

"Sister Jin, see you at Zhaolin Realm!"

Jin Yanhua's figure disappeared into the cosmic light, while An Jing bid farewell to You Ruhui. The two looked at each other, and You Ruhui also noticed that the cosmic light turbulence around An Jing was also beginning to grow as strong as Jin Yanhua's. With some worry, You Ruhui tightened his grip on An Jing's hand: "An Jing, this situation is very complicated. You are destined to be bound by karma, so you must be careful!"

"Don't worry, I understand."

An Jing was perfectly aware of the current situation. How could he not understand? In his previous life, he had read countless fantasy novels with infinite flow elements, second only to "The Return of the Urban Soldier King." He was very familiar with this kind of setting and didn't need to say anything more: "I'm not worried about Sister Jin. She will probably manifest her divine power as soon as she goes in. And you know my strength... On the contrary, Ru Hui, you must be careful!"

As he said this, An Jing took out a suitcase-shaped magic artifact from his cave: "This is full of magic artifacts from the Tianyuan Realm that are of little use to me now: talismans, drones, landmines, thunder beads, sword cases... You can take them!"

"Such a huge Void Artifact? Just how much... is inside...?"

Given their relationship, You Ruhui wouldn't stand on ceremony with An Jing. She accepted the gifts somewhat bewildered, then exclaimed in surprise, "This, so much?! This is enough to blow a mountain up, isn't it?"

"more than."

An Jing smiled and said that he also felt that his Four Seasons Main Domain had reached its limit and that the cosmic light flow of the Zhaolin Realm was going to send him to a separate place.

He released You Ruhui's hand: "Don't be stingy, use it when necessary, see the scales of the world!"

An Jing's figure disappeared, and no sound could be heard anymore. As he left, he vaguely saw You Ruhui's mouth shape, as if it was also saying goodbye to him.

He sank into the turbulent currents of cosmic light.

Endless light and shadow flow by.

An Jing didn't know how much time had passed—perhaps a fleeting moment, perhaps countless ages—but he noticed that the ever-flowing stream of cosmic light, like a tidal wave, had vanished.

Whoosh— Just as he had arrived at the Heavenly Sea Dragon Court, An Jing appeared in mid-air.

There was no fall, no screams; the moment it appeared, Anjing silently floated in the sky.

From above.

A vast, boundless, and magnificent world unfolded before his eyes.

This is a primordial world that exists only in ancient times. It is towering on all sides, with a depression in the center like a basin.

In a corner of the basin, below the tranquility, an endless golden forest stretched out in layers, covering the entire land as far as the eye could see. Its leaves, like flowing sunlight, illuminated everything around it. From within, a three-legged golden crow leaped up, trailing a golden tail flame as it streaked across the sky. Countless sparks fell, illuminating the scattered remains of colossal beasts, like ancient mountains, on the ground.

The pale skeletons and golden forest stretched to the horizon, meeting the vast sky above.

At the boundary between white and gold and the sky, nine jade-blue celestial rivers descend from the purplish-blue firmament, winding their way to the center of the world, to a vast, azure lake and sea.

The lake and sea are deep and calm, like a glass mirror inlaid on the earth, reflecting the bluish-purple glow above.

Following the light, An Jing looked toward the center of the world.

He saw it; in the middle of this azure sea, an unimaginably magnificent mountain rose from the ground. It was the dragon's spine peak that An Jing had seen outside the boundary, resembling Mount Buzhou.

Once inside the boundary, the Dragon Ridge Peak becomes even more majestic and imposing, with its thick, pale, bony mountain sections winding upwards, piercing through the clouds.

Thump...thump.

heartbeat.

An Jing raised her hand and closed her eyes.

He raised his hand and pressed it to his chest, feeling the flow of 'True Spirit Blood' within his body, and the pulsation of 'Candlelight Flame' within his inner sanctum.

It was as if the entire cave itself was slowly pulsating, a slow yet grand heartbeat resounding in the young martial artist's ears.

He opened his eyes and raised his head.

At the top of the sky, at the summit of the dragon's spine.

The candlelight shone brightly.

It was an ancient scale suspended between the sky and the mountain peak, emitting a bluish-purple light, surrounded by three lotus flowers that swirled around it like the sun, like starlight, like blazing flames.

The lotus flower rotates, its radiance rhythmically intertwining and swirling, reflecting different colors. It is intricate, beautiful, constantly changing, and never fixed in form, each moment more magnificent than the last.

It will not stop, it spirals, and its brilliance is endless.

It shines upon the world like the sun.

This is……

The boundary of the scales.
