Chapter 3325 - Untitled
While the Blood Lotus Lord was exclaiming that he had been fooled, more than five hundred kilometers away from the main battlefield of the confrontation between the righteous and the evil, in a bottomless cliff surrounded by clouds, the place where Zhao Chuang's master, the leader of the Heaven Wolves Sect, sacrificed himself to save Zhao Chuang and the supreme jade chip not long ago.
No one had expected that there would be a crack at the bottom of the cliff, which was as smooth as a mirror.
Deep inside the mountain through the crevice, there was another world. It was a spacious, airy underground palace.
Moreover, the underground palace was filled with clean water, food, Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, and elixirs. It was enough for a Cultivator to train in seclusion for three to five years.
The leader of the Heaven Wolves Sect, who was supposed to have fallen off the cliff, had shown up in this place. Everything around him had been prepared by him, and his most beloved disciple, Zhao Chuang, was merely a bait that he had set up!
However, at this moment, the leader of the Heaven Wolves Sect was no better than dead. His bones were broken, his limbs were broken, and his veins were shattered. He was living a life worse than death!
Even the 'Supreme Jade Slip' that he saved at the cost of the entire Heaven Wolves Sect and his own fake death fell into the hands of someone else.
It was a square-jawed, kind-looking man.
One look was enough to tell that it was the beacon of mercy for all living creatures.
If he was not the leader of the righteous path, who could he be?
"For the sake of a supreme jade chip, you killed your entire family, which led to the betrayal of your family and the loss of your reputation. Why did you do that, leader of the Heaven Wolves Guild?"
Master Ci Hang sighed. He groped for the jade chip in his hand while he stomped on the leg of the leader of the Heaven Wolves Sect.
The leader of the Heaven Wolves Sect was crying in pain, but the excruciating pain stimulated his soul and made his thoughts clearer. He glared at Master Ci Hang and shrieked, "Ci Hang, you are not a good man, either. If you really had no evil thoughts, you wouldn't have waited for me in this place alone. With your capability, you could've captured me alive and brought me to the Misery Meditation Temple where I would be interrogated by the righteous Cultivators! You were unusually merciless and killed me here. Are you going to swallow the 'Supreme Jade Slip' like me?
"Haha. Hahahaha. I am a wildling from the northwest, an unknown figure in the world of Cultivators. I was hoping that I could soar into the sky with the help of the 'Supreme Jade Slip'. That's why I had evil thoughts. I didn't know that you, the leader of the righteous path and the 'Master Cihang' who is respected by billions of people and Cultivators, would be unable to control yourself and sink to the same level as me and Master Blood Lotus. How hilarious. How hilarious!"
"It's different. You and I are still different."
Master Ci Hang was neither angry nor angry. He smiled and said, "Leader of the Heaven Wolves Sect, do you know the content of the 'Supreme Jade Slip'? Do you know how to unlock the seal of the jade chip? No. You don't know anything, and yet you were tempted by greed and tried to crack the mystery of the Supreme Jade Slip by training in seclusion for three to five years? That's hilarious and suicidal. Are you and I the same?"
"My race has been pursuing and studying the 'Supreme Jade Slip' for thousands of years. It was not until the hard work and sacrifices of our ancestors that we were able to figure out most of the content of the jade chip. I also knew that the jade chip contained a strong mental test. In order to stabilize the soul, I dedicated myself to the Misery Meditation Temple for more than a hundred years and practiced all kinds of secret arts to calm the soul. That was why I had a twenty percent chance to withstand the power of the jade chip.
"It was just a spur-of-the-moment decision. But I've been waiting for a hundred years for today. Leader of the Heaven Wolves Guild, are we really the same?"
"Even if you waste a hundred years, it will still be a dream. You will never succeed."
The leader of the Heaven Wolves Sect struggled and said, "Don't underestimate the heroes of the world. Very soon, somebody will see through your scheme and learn that the 'Supreme Jade Slip' is in your hands. By then, the image that you've been pretending for a hundred years will be completely destroyed. You will become the biggest traitor of the Sea of Bitterness Temple and a rat that is hunted by both the righteous and the evil sects. There will be no place for you in the entire Nine Realms!"
"So what?
Master Ci Hang was still smiling. "Reputation, status, image, the Sea of Bitterness Temple, the righteous and the evil, the mouths of the people of the nine worlds… None of that matters in the face of absolute strength.
"As long as I can solve the mystery of the 'Supreme Jade Slip' and master the unparalleled primeval technique, I will be the well-deserved overlord of the world, the king of kings, and the god of all gods. With a light cough from me, who in the nine worlds and ten thousand provinces would dare to disobey? How could the 'righteous leader' who only has a false reputation compare to me?
"Alright. Leader of the Heaven Wolves Guild, it's time to send you on your way. Since you helped me get the jade chip, do you have any unfulfilled wishes before your death?"
"Wait!"
The leader of the Heaven Wolves Sect thought of something and said, "What kind of ancient heritage is stored inside the jade chip that even Master Ci Hang is willing to give up everything that he has been working on for a hundred years in exchange? I—I want to know. I want to die knowing!"
"Alright. It doesn't matter if I tell you. I'm 'Sorrowful Sea' after all. I hate it when other people die with regret."
Master Ci Hang had been hibernating in the Sea of Bitterness Temple for a hundred years. He had been living a miserable life for a long time. Now that his disguise had been torn apart and his true face revealed, he couldn't have felt more comfortable. There were indeed a lot of words that he had been meaning to tell other people. He said proudly, "The so-called 'Supreme Jade Slip' refers to a supreme expert who dominated the sea of stars countless years ago. He is known as 'Vulture Li Yao'. In the legends, he is a man who can pluck the stars and pluck the moon. His strength is far beyond our imagination.
"According to the legends, the founding ancestor of the 'Sharpen Gold Sect', the strongest refining sect of the Nine Worlds, only established his own sect and dominated the world for a thousand years because he got half a secret book from an extraordinary man named 'Wu Maxing'. The 'Wu Maxing' in front of us was nothing more than a great-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand nothing.
"According to the legends, there was a great empire that spanned across the universe. Its territory was billions of times larger than that of the Nine Worlds. It even conquered the stars above the stars. The emperor of the great empire had to address Li Yao as his elder brother.
"According to the legends, there is a mysterious and powerful 'Holy Accord' that can open the spiritual acupoints of flowers, trees, and even rocks and metals and turn them into human beings. Without Li Yao's command, the 'Holy Accord' does not have any techniques.
"According to the legends, an Inferno T-rex once trampled on billions of stars, devoured countless creatures, and destroyed millions of worlds. Only the supreme Li Yao could subdue this Inferno T-rex!
"Supreme Li Yao is the strongest man in the universe since ancient times! Even the ancient dominators of countless worlds and worlds were enlightened and enlightened by him in order to establish their own imperium.
"This 'Supreme Jade Slip' contains all the essence of the most perilous battle in Li Yao's life, including his ultimate move to defeat a strong enemy. Do you think such a thing is not worth my sacrifice?"
The leader of the Heaven Wolves Guild was dumbfounded.
"Even so, how did you know that the jade chip contained the ultimate move of the supreme Li Yao?" the leader of the Heaven Wolves Sect asked hurriedly, vomiting blood.
"It's simple. According to the research of my family over the past thousand years, Supreme Li Yao once destroyed jade chips of the same type in the universe.
Master Ci Hang said, "According to the research of my family, Supreme Li Yao is not a man who likes to keep things to himself. During the years when he dominated the sea of stars, he fought billions of battles both big and small. Naturally, he left countless Cultivation arts, secret arts, and ultimate skills. But he did not destroy the classics of other Cultivation arts. Instead, he went through all the trouble to destroy the jade chips that recorded the battle between him and 'Black Star Emperor Wu Yingqi'.
"Therefore, the 'Black Star Emperor' Wu Yingqi must be a rarely-seen enemy in Li Yao's life. In order to deal with the Black Star Emperor, Li Yao must've performed a forbidden technique that could destroy the world. The power of the technique was so strong that even Li Yao himself was scared of it.
Maybe, after I learn the moves in the jade chip, I will be able to destroy Li Yao himself!
"Therefore, the supreme Li Yao could not wait to destroy all the jade chips for the duel against the Black Star Emperor. Today, there is only one jade chip left in the entire Nine Worlds, and I was lucky enough to get it. Haha. Hahahaha!
"Alright, leader of the Heaven Wolves Guild. I've answered all your questions. Do you have anything else to say?"
The leader of the Heaven Wolves Sect took a long breath, with blood flowing out of his mouth.
He looked at Master Ci Hang with complicated feelings. There was no telling whether they were hatred, jealousy, or envy.
"I really want to see the duel between Li Yao and Wu Yingqi, the Black Star Emperor, and see how the invincible master of the sea of stars defeats his lifelong enemy with his ultimate moves!" the leader of the Heaven Wolves Sect said gloomily.
"You are too greedy, leader of the Heaven Wolves Guild."
While talking, Master Ci Hang stomped on the leader's head.
Right now, he was the only one left in the underground palace.
No. It should be said that, although the world was vast, he had personally destroyed everything he had and became all alone.
He could hear the howls outside of the underground palace. Were they the roars of the furious winds, the furious waves, or the denunciations of the righteous and the evil?
It was a gamble of a hundred years. Thankfully, he had won the gamble.
"It doesn't matter. It doesn't matter even if I destroy myself in the past hundred years. It doesn't matter even if I become the public enemy of the world. It doesn't matter even if I am hated, despised, and hunted by everyone. As long as I can solve the mystery of the jade chip and learn the ancient ultimate art of Li Yao defeating the Black Star Emperor, all the forbearance and suffering over the past hundred years will be rewarded. The entire world will be mine, or even all the other worlds…"
Master Ci Hang smiled. Every pore on his face was shining with ambition and hope.
Calming himself down, Master Ci Hang recited the spell and touched the jade chip, while he started studying wholeheartedly.
[Other than that, the mystery of the jade chip is finished.]
