1918 Chapter 1813, Eternal Secrets
After a long while, a huge bubble emerged from the lava.
Su Yu carried the little qilin and appeared together with Wang Dahu.
Wang Dahu’s face was filled with disbelief as he stammered, “Holy Beast... Why did you let us go and help us hide from the Dark King?”
One had to know that holy beasts only obeyed the Dark King.
It did not make sense at all!
Su Yu turned a deaf ear to it as he stared at the empty cross. His expression was extremely ugly.
In the end, before he left, the dark king took away the scabbard that was hidden here!
He had worked so hard until now and had even almost died. He did not expect that he would still be defeated in the end.
Could it be that he really had no fate with the Emperor’s killing sword?
Back then, Yun Yazi had forced the Tianyun Emperor to capture a wisp of the emperor’s killing sword’s fate on Su Yu. Theoretically speaking, he should also have the opportunity to fight for the Emperor’s killing sword.
Now that the scabbard had been taken away by the Dark King, he was powerless to obtain the emperor’s killing sword.
Even if it was right in front of him, Su Yu could do nothing about it.
Just as he was extremely disappointed, the blurry lump of meat on the cross squirmed and said weakly, “Hehe... of course... I was the one who told Green Snake to let you go...”
Wang Dahu looked over in surprise and muttered, “You? That’s the Dark King’s Holy Beast. How could it listen to your orders?”
Su Yu came back to his senses. After thinking for a moment, he nodded slightly. “It’s still possible... if he’s the real dark king.”
Wang Dahu was stunned. “He’s the real dark king? Why do you say that, sir?”
Su Yu stared at the meatball, he said, “Didn’t alliance master sword say it clearly just now? The current dark king is a fake. Then, who is the fake? No matter how you look at it, it can only be the outer realm expert who broke into the dark star civilization a long time ago, right?”
“You mean...”Wang Dahu’s mind was buzzing as he took a deep breath. “In the battle back then, the Dark King was actually defeated and then suppressed by the outer realm expert. And that outer realm expert has been pretending to be the dark king ever since?”
Su Yu nodded slowly.
“Hiss...”Wang Dahu stared at the meatball in shock. He still couldn’t believe it. “Is this true?”
The meatball smiled. “Hehe... I also hope that it’s fake...”
Wang Dahu felt as if he had been struck by lightning. He was stunned on the spot. “You, you are really the Dark King?”
“Hehe, when I was suppressed, you had just ascended the sacred mountain. You were still a nine-year-old child at that time, right? “Even your name was given by me. Because I saved you from a tiger, I named You Wang Dahu.”
This was a secret that Wang Dahu never told anyone.
He was originally a child of a mortal. When he was herding cows on the mountain, he was taken away by a tiger.
It was dark king who happened to pass by and saved him. When he found out that he had the foundation for cultivation, he brought him back to the sacred mountain and named him Wang Dahu.
Only he and dark king knew about this.
“Dark... King...”tears rolled down Wang Dahu’s eyes as he walked over quickly. “Dark King, it was you who was trapped all these years!”
No wonder he felt that dark king was a different person after he was injured all these years.
From the looks of it now, the so-called injury was just an excuse for that outer realm expert to hide the fact that he was good at using the Dao of ice.
No wonder green snake would listen to him and let go of them who were hiding in the lava.
This was because green snake knew very early on that the one who was imprisoned under the Holy Pond was the real dark king!
However, the green snake was very smart and pretended not to know anything to avoid being killed by the fake dark king.
“Don’t go over.”Su Yu reached out to grab wang dahu and said, “With the strength of the dark king, he can still be trapped on the cross. Do you think that cross is an ordinary thing?”
Meatball said, “That’s right... Don’t come over... This cross is something that that person brought from the outside world. Once you step within ten feet of it, your body will immediately be sucked onto the cross and you will never be able to leave, even if it’s the four crowns!”
Wang Dahu said anxiously, “Dark King, then how can I Save You?”
“It’s useless... You Can’t save me...”dark king said hoarsely.
With the cross, who couldn’t save him.
“What if I Can Save You?”Suddenly, Su Yu said slowly.
Dark King’s meatball wriggled fiercely and said, “You?”
“That’s right.”Su Yu said calmly, “However, I want to get the scabbard.”
The meatball was silent for a long time before he slowly said, “I can guess... he took the risk to enter this place, so he should be here for the scabbard.”
“I can promise you that if you can save me, I can give you the scabbard.”
Su Yu thought for a moment and nodded, “Okay, I hope you will keep your promise.”
After he finished speaking, Su Yu walked over, completely defenseless.
“Human, do you plan to walk over directly?”
Su Yu didn’t say anything and directly stepped into the cross.
A strong suction force instantly pulled Su Yu over.
But at this moment, a flowing law of time appeared on Su Yu’s body.
Dark King sucked in a breath of cold air. “Law of time...”
Under absolute time, the suction force from the cross fell into a static state, unable to affect Su Yu in the slightest.
Taking this opportunity, Su Yu took a step forward and pulled the meatball down from the cross.
Then, he immediately brought it out of the range of ten feet.
The front and back seemed to be long, but in fact, it didn’t take more than a breath.
The absolute time could only last for a breath.
After losing the influence of the Cross, the meatball immediately released a weak primeval force to self-repair.
In the blink of an eye, it transformed from a lump of blurry flesh into a black-faced young man in his thirties.
Upon seeing him, Wang Dahu fell to his knees with a plop. He was so excited that tears welled up in his eyes. “Dark King!”
The black-faced young man had a cold temperament. At this moment, he revealed a trace of gentleness and helped him up. “Get up.”
Then, he looked at Su Yu with deep surprise and gratitude in his eyes. “I never thought that I would meet someone who has mastered the laws of time in my lifetime. I thought that was just a legend.”
“I can’t repay you for saving my life, so I’ll give you the scabbard!”Dark King said slowly.
Su Yu frowned slightly. “Now? The scabbard has been taken away by the fake dark king. With your current weak state, I’m afraid it will be very difficult for you to take it back from him.”
The fake dark king had suppressed dark king at his peak, let alone now when he was extremely weak?
His current strength was probably even inferior to Su Yu’s.
A trace of mockery flashed across the weak face of the dark king. “What that thief got was just a fake scabbard!”
What, Fake?
The fake dark king was very shrewd, and he did not seem to be someone who could be easily fooled.
“The scabbard of the Emperor Killing Sword has always been a legend. Only I have it. If I say it is, it is. If I say it isn’t, it isn’t. No matter how smart that thief is, he would never have thought that the scabbard i carry around with me was simply a diversion.”
This..
Su Yu was surprised. “Then where is the real scabbard?”
Dark King smiled coldly. “It’s far away, but it’s right in front of us!”
“It’s on You?”Su Yu was puzzled. The fake dark king tortured him so much, yet he didn’t find the scabbard on him?
No matter how he looked at it, it didn’t make sense.
“To be exact, I am the scabbard!”However, Dark King revealed a shocking secret that shocked Su Yu.
Wang Dahu, who was at the side, was also stunned. “Dark King, are you saying that you are the scabbard?”
The Little Qilin, who was playing on the ground, also raised his eyes curiously and said in a childish voice, “The scabbard, why don’t you look like a scabbard?”
In response, the dark king chuckled. “When have you heard that a scabbard is a dead object that is forged?”
This... there really wasn’t one.
They only knew about the scabbard, but they didn’t know what it was exactly.
They just subconsciously thought that it was a forged magical artifact.
“Back then, Dao Master Slayer used his spine to forge the Emperor Slayer sword before he died. This is a well-known rumor, but very few people know that Dao Master Slayer used his own blood essence to forge a human-shaped scabbard. That’s me!”
Su Yu felt that this was a fantasy.
But when it came to Dao Master, he had no choice but to believe it.
It was not impossible for a drop of blood to evolve into a powerful creature with four crowns.
“The Emperor Slayer Sword Contains Dao Master Slayer’s lifelong killing intent. There is nothing in the world that can contain it. Only I, who came from Dao Master Slayer’s flesh, can do it!”Dark King said slowly.
Su Yu was enlightened.
He had thought about what kind of material the scabbard would be made of to block the killer intent of the Emperor Killer Sword.
So that was the case.
“But...”Su Yu voiced his doubts. “Then why did the Killer Dao Master create the scabbard? “The reason why he left the Emperor Killer sword was because he was unwilling to die for fear of being killed. He left the killer intent of his life to continue wreaking havoc on the people.”
Dark King did not explain. Instead, he looked deeply at Su Yu and said slowly, “You are very smart. I think you should understand one sentence... history has always been written by the victors!”
Su Yu was shocked.
Killing Dao master was attacked and killed. Could there be another reason?
“Then why did he die?”Su Yu could not help but be deeply curious.
Dark king said, “This is the answer that thief wanted to know. The Secret of the scabbard! Because, back then, killing Dao master accidentally found a shocking clue. That clue led to his death!”
“His death reduced that clue to an eternal secret. If you want to know, there’s only one way!”
Su Yu’s eyes sparkled. “The sword and the scabbard become one again?”
Dark King nodded approvingly. “That’s right! The secret that thief and Sword Union master wanted to know all happened when the sword and the scabbard became one.”
What did the clue mean if it could trigger a war between Dao Masters?
Perhaps it wasn’t an exaggeration to say that it shocked the absolute beginning world.
Moreover, the emperor killing sword was only one of the four pieces of the Emperor set.
If it contained secrets, did the other three pieces also contain secrets?
Would the combination of the four secrets lead to an even bigger secret?
Su Yu’s heart trembled as if he had accidentally gotten involved in the whirlpool between Dao Masters!
A moment later, he suppressed the shock in his heart.
The information that dark king had brought to him was too shocking. He needed to digest it properly.
“You mean you are willing to follow me?”Su Yu’s eyes flashed.
Dark King pointed at himself and smiled bitterly. “I have no choice but to follow you.”
With his weak state and current situation, the only person he could trust was Su Yu.
“Then leave quickly.”Su Yu looked deeply at the cross.
The fake dark king might have noticed the dark king’s escape.
It was better to leave as soon as possible.
However, at this moment, a huge aura suddenly enveloped the entire holy pond, a cold sneer came from the shadow. “Hehehe... Dark King, Oh Dark King, you finally revealed your secret after so many years. So, you are the real scabbard! This is really unexpected!”
