From the power of space to the heavens 2

Chapter 1295. Balance

The world is biased towards the east.

Within a plate called Lingxiao Continent.

Southeast region.

There is a long and sparsely populated stone forest.

However, times are different now.

This seemingly ordinary stone forest, which is usually deserted and does not produce any precious resources, has been crowded with people recently. Many practitioners from all over the world have been fighting here. There are also those merchants who are willing to take advantage of any opportunity and risk their lives for money. They have come here from thousands of miles away and joined forces with other merchants who are equally willing to spend money to set up large and small markets to sell some supplies that can be used when exploring this place.

Yes.

This seemingly simple stone forest actually has a great origin.

After the exploration by the first group of practitioners attracted by the eruption of spiritual light half a month ago, the accurate information summarized so far is that this should be the remains left behind when Wanyan Tianzun of ancient times and a supreme master named Xiansheng Tianmodi from the holy clan died together. Nowadays, most people can see this layer of stone forest, which is actually the outer shell of the ruins.

Like the spines on a sea urchin.

of course.

The spines on sea urchins are movable.

This layer of stone forest cannot move.

However, you only need to cut off the spines on the sea urchin, and you can easily find its weak points, cut it open, and get the food.

But this stone forest is different.

Because underneath this stone forest is a rock layer of unknown thickness.

The further down you go, the harder it gets.

There was once a supreme being who attacked with all his strength.

But apart from leaving behind a deep pit several thousand meters deep.

There was no other gain.

Therefore, even if the stone forest above was cut off, it was impossible to penetrate the rock layer below, and naturally no one would try to dig a hole in it again.

Doesn’t that sound strange?

The supreme one.

Equivalent to the existence of the Dou Di.

If placed on the Douqi Continent, it could easily shatter the continent.

How come it failed after only penetrating a few thousand meters?

Is it that the individual is too incompetent or that the group does not live up to its name?

In fact, neither!

The reason is that the rock formation is too hard.

Within ten meters, there are layers of hardness, but they are just ordinary stone layers.

Below ten meters, to between fifty meters.

The hardness of the rock formations at this stage is comparable to that of steel.

Except it can't be smelted.

There is no difference from ordinary weapons.

Below fifty meters, to between two hundred meters.

The hardness of the rock formation at this stage is comparable to that of diamond.

Below two hundred meters, ordinary materials cannot be used for estimation, and all rare materials have to be used for comparison. However, since most rare materials have their own characteristics, some metals have particularly good ductility, and some metals have higher toughness. For the time being, it is impossible to compare specific metals with this rock formation.

After all, metal is metal and rock is rock.

Although, most metals are extracted from ores.

Most of the minerals are dug out of the earth.

The relationship between the two sides is very complicated.

Theoretically speaking.

Earth element is also present in metals.

But under the current circumstances, metal can obviously no longer be used as a comparison object for this completely unreasonable rock formation.

However, even the full-strength attack of the Earth Supreme could only leave behind a deep pit, which was enough to show that the ruins underneath were indeed related to the Sky Supreme. Even if it was not the ancient battlefield where Wanyan Tianzun and Xiansheng Tianmo Emperor died together as written on the broken stone slabs, it was closely related to a strong man of the level of the Sky Supreme, and it must be a great opportunity.

Therefore, it doesn't matter how hard the rock is.

Just need to be clear.

The ruins underneath cannot be opened by violence.

However, the occasional signs of spiritual light spewing out over the past half month have given all explorers enough confidence. As the progress is advanced bit by bit, many secrets of the ancient times have also surfaced, although they are only relative secrets.

At least in Lu Yuan's opinion.

These secrets are not really secrets.

It does not involve the truth of the ancient war.

Instead, there are some human touches involved.

Even if this is just a guess made by Lu Yuan based on his own feelings.

Absolute accuracy is not guaranteed.

"Ah!"

"Ah!"

"Ah!"

Under the rock layer.

Among the so-called ruins.

In fact, it should be called the ancient battlefield in space after being petrified.

A ruffian-looking young man rubbed his nose.

Bewildered.

Don’t even mention that he is just a soul.

Even if he has a physical body.

Nor will you sneeze without warning.

This doesn't make sense!

Therefore, after a moment of daze, he quickly found the target to blame. Looking at the old man not far away whose lower body was full of smoke, but judging from his height and upper body posture, he could be judged to be meditating, he found fault and said, "Hey, old man, are you scolding me in your heart again? Otherwise, why would I sneeze?"

"Maybe the dolls outside are not satisfied with the story you made up?"

The old man opened his eyes.

He retorted quite calmly.

Of course, the reality made it impossible for him to be uneasy.

Trapped here for hundreds of thousands of years.

The only one who could keep him company and talk to him was the residual soul of the Demon Emperor of the Holy Clan.

In addition, the remnant soul of the Holy Lord, the Demon Emperor, revealed his true colors directly after losing his body, and even raised his hands in surrender, indicating that you need to treat me with the proper standards for treating prisoners of war. This is the contract signed between the Immortal Emperor of your human race and the Holy Spirit of our Holy Race.

Therefore, under the premise that he was not sure whether what the other party said was true or false, he still chose to play it safe and kept the other party for so many years.

And judging from the performance over the years.

What the other party said should be true.

So, although he was speechless about this fact, he was indeed feeling angry in his heart. It was like the front lines were fighting for their lives, while the rear lines were using the fruits of their efforts to trade with the enemy. Although the purpose of this transaction was for peace, when he thought that peace was achieved in such a weird way, he really wanted to go out and question the Immortal Emperor why.

Unfortunately, he couldn't get out.

Because I used all my strength to seal this scoundrel, even burning my body.

Fortunately, this scoundrel did not fight him to the death in the state of residual soul, which allowed him to hold on until the seal he had set was lifted by itself. Then, he could be born again and ask the Immortal Emperor why he did this.

All I can say is there is still hope.

However, no matter what,

He can't get out now.

So, naturally, I don't care.

The young man who was a bit of a scoundrel also held the same attitude towards this point. Therefore, when faced with the old man's rebuttal, he did not get angry, but imagined the future in a more eccentric way: "Speaking of which, old man, when we are unsealed, you will probably be very lonely. Unlike me, I can meet the Lord of Time, an acquaintance, after I go out. You will meet strangers after you go out, and they are all juniors who are hundreds of thousands of years younger than you. There is no guarantee that there won't be some brave juniors who will capture you for research, torture you, and get your various skills and spiritual secrets from you... Really, it's miserable just thinking about it!"

"You sound like you're very proud?"

The old man did not react at all as he should after being provoked.

Or rather, he wasn't angry at all.

He asked back quite calmly.

Fortunately, in these hundreds of thousands of years, the young man has also understood the old man’s temperament and character. He was not surprised by the old man’s reaction. He borrowed the old man’s usual rhetoric and logic and waved his hand perfunctorily: “You will definitely say that this is your human race’s territory and you don’t need to leave, but I, a member of the Saint Clan, can only leave. In contrast, I have nothing to be proud of because invading other people’s homes is not worthy of pride... However, I am not telling you this today to listen to your teachings, but to say that I sincerely hope that you will consider it... Moreover, if nothing unexpected happens, the survivors of our Saint Clan should have reached an agreement on peaceful coexistence with the natives of your world, and we will no longer be enemies.”

"maybe."

"But this is not the reason why I joined the Saint Clan."

"Besides, I can still find a disciple."

“As long as the Heaven Supreme does not come, the Earth Supreme and those little guys below the Earth Supreme will never be able to see through my whereabouts.”

"They want to capture me and torture me for various spiritual techniques."

"Honestly, that's wishful thinking!"

The old man laughed disdainfully.

Although he is a casual cultivator.

But one can cultivate to the realm of the Supreme Saint.

How could he not have some tricks?

What's more, this is the seal he built by burning his own body. It was originally used to suppress the Demon Emperor opposite him. However, the subsequent developments were not quite as he had imagined, and some unexpected changes occurred. But, no matter what, his control over this petrified space remained the same. Although it was not easy to find a successor, it was not difficult in the face of the huge base.

"Anyway, as long as you don't make trouble."

"I am absolutely sure that I can return to the world."

In response to the old man's supplement, the unruly young man smiled and said nothing. Instead, he changed the subject and fantasized casually, "Old man, what do you think the outside world will be like in hundreds of thousands of years? Will our Saint Clan already live and work in peace and contentment here?"

"Hundreds of thousands of years..."

Hearing this question, the old man's attitude and tone also eased, and he sighed, "For you and me, the Supreme Heaven, this is only a fraction of our life. It's not an exaggeration to say that things change... I'm not the Lord of Time you often mention. I can't give you any accurate answer to your question, but if you just guess, I can play with you for a day... After all, we're just sitting around doing nothing. Although the day for us to escape is not far away, the seal has begun to break. Even if you and I don't attack from the inside, it can only be sealed for another thousand years at most. With the joint attack of you and me, it's estimated to be a matter of two years. If the people outside can work together, maybe it can be opened this year, but it's still some time before it's really opened. It's not wrong for you and me to think about the future."

"The future?"

The voice came from behind the old man.

The old man instantly realized that something was wrong.

It's not just a change in breath.

The most important thing is the voice.

But unlike the old man who noticed something was wrong and immediately became alert, the young man who was sitting aside, in a sloppy and unruly manner, sat up straight in an instant, as if he had seen some important person. Then, he stood up neatly. Although considering his current physical condition, he should be described as floating, because he is currently just a soul body, but whether he was standing or floating, he could not hide his respect.

"I will show my holiness."

"I have met the Holy Master."

This statement came out.

The old man instantly understood who the visitor was.

Looking at the rather young Lu Yuan.

Feel the aura of Lu Yuan, the supreme spiritual master.

I was shocked and speechless for a moment.

of course.

Although the two names above sound similar, their meanings are completely different.

The previous one appeared.

Refers to the most show-off person among the saints.

It can also be said that he is the most extravagant Demon Emperor among the Saints.

He likes to show off in front of others and pretend to be a pig to eat the tiger.

Although using this word as a title does sound a bit strange, because this title is more derogatory than complimentary, but considering that this title was deliberately made up by the young man himself, this kind of praise or criticism does not exist, because he has no objection.

And then a holy master.

Refers to the teacher of the holy clan.

He is the teacher of everyone in the Holy Clan.

Does not include the evil god.

So, although they look the same, their meanings are completely different.

Although for Lu Yuan.

He doesn't care.

He waved his hand casually and explained, "It is only one of my avatars that came here. You two don't need to be polite. If there is nothing else, I will follow the original contract and take you away with me. As for the issue of rebuilding the body, it will be left to the current Saint Clan to complete. I will not participate in this aspect."

"Thank you for your help, Saint Master."

The young man bowed seriously.

Then, he nodded to the old man beside him and said jokingly, "Old senior, since you have locked me up for hundreds of thousands of years, if you encounter any problems in the future, you can come to the Saint Clan to find me. Although I cannot guarantee that I can solve them, at least I have more options."

"and many more!"

The old man hurriedly tried to persuade him to stay.

Of course, the person he wanted to keep was not the Holy Demon Emperor.

But it was Lu Yuan's clone.

At the same time, he hurriedly asked, "You should be the Lord of Time, the one mentioned by Senior Heart Demon Thunder Emperor. Although I have never seen you, I have heard of you... You must know the result of this war. Can you tell me, did the human race win in the end?"

"It depends on how you determine winning or losing."

"It only cost part of the Heavenly Supreme's life."

"Let the Saint Clan merge in perfectly."

“It didn’t lead to a bigger war.”

"In the end, we shook hands and made peace."

“This should be considered a win, right?”

"After all, being able to obtain this result from the Heavenly Evil God, who was a powerful master in the Domination Realm at his peak, is a most satisfactory result for both me and the Immortal Emperor."

Lu Yuan collected the remaining soul of the Holy Demon Emperor.

Tear open the petrified space.

Continue to the next world.

Only the stunned old man was left. After a moment of silence, he suddenly let out a sigh of relief. Most of his obsession faded away. He smiled bitterly and muttered to himself: "If this is true, sacrificing a small number of people in exchange for the lives of the vast majority of people is indeed a worthwhile approach..."
