Daoying

Chapter 611: Truth or Dare, Ancient Era

"Okay, stop it first."

Xie Huan replied, but the killing moves in his hands did not decrease at all, but increased a bit.

"If we have to stop, we should stop together!"

The lion-headed sea creature shouted loudly, and the movement of forming seals with his hands did not slow down at all, but became faster. The formation patterns on his body, which were originally aqua blue, now turned into scarlet. Fierce energy emanated from it, and a layer of blood enveloped him, which suddenly turned into a blood-colored beam of light, breaking through the shackles of the Moon-Turning Golden Wheel and entangled with those sword symbols.

Seven Yuanying flew out above Xie Huan's head, each holding a magic weapon or making hand gestures. One of them held Qingxiong, which kept growing bigger.

Suddenly, Xie Huan's eyes focused, and some faint lights were reflected in the blue and silver light, like flames, which appeared around him at some point, and the golden words on the Stardust Monument flashed in it.

Xie Huan's heart trembled, and he immediately collected the seven Nascent Souls, transformed into lightning and retreated, at the same time he also took back the Moon-Turning Wheel and the Divine Sword Domain.

But those faint lights were like maggots on the tarsal bones, following along and constantly merging in the air, becoming larger and larger.

The Lion-Headed Sea Tribe was fighting desperately. When they saw Xie Huan running away, they were stunned for a moment. After seeing the faint light clearly, they grinned grimly and said, "Hehe, you will suffer for your own sins. I will let you have a taste of the power of this ghost thing!"

After saying this, he groaned, blood flowed from the corners of his mouth, and a look of fear flashed in his eyes. He hurriedly took out some pills and swallowed them, then he made hand gestures in mid-air to regulate his breathing.

When Xie Huan saw the dim light rushing towards him, he waved his hand and several sword energies shot out one after another, accurately cutting into the dim light, but not coming out.

The sword energy was completely swallowed up.

Moreover, the faint light showed signs of intensifying.

Xie Huan summoned several magic weapons, all of which were sharp attacking weapons. They turned into streams of light and rushed forward. The moment they touched the dim light, they flashed lightly and disappeared.

Not only can it swallow energy, but it can also swallow real objects?

The nature of this faint light seems to be the same as that of the bottle itself.

He thought that the lion-head sea creatures also rushed out from the dim light, so it didn't seem so scary to be swallowed up.

But Xie Huan would definitely not let himself be swallowed, so he raised his hand and punched forward.

The fist light instantly compressed the space, creating an energy black hole, which hit the dim light, and suddenly everything in front became dark.

And the energy black hole suddenly collapsed, making a short sound and completely disappeared.

The pupils of the lion-headed sea creature in the distance shrank, and he thought to himself, can it be like this?
But he soon started to laugh mockingly, and light appeared again where the black hole collapsed. The faint light came out from the crack like a ghost.

Xie Huan pondered for a moment. There are currently two ways. One is to put it into the magic treasure, and the other is... He put his right hand in front of him, and the Lotus Treasure Mirror immediately flew out. A large amount of light spurted out from the gourd mouth, rushed towards the dim light, wrapped it, and then pulled it back quickly.

The thick glow quickly faded and was swallowed by the dim light. Just before it disappeared completely, it finally returned to the gourd.

Xie Huan drew a few prohibitions with his backhand and slapped them on the gourd, then it turned back into his hand.

He stared at it for a while and found nothing unusual, as if it had really been swallowed. Then he put away the gourd with confidence and looked forward.

The lion-headed sea creature trembled all over, and turned into a light to escape, but as the light appeared, a shining sword energy came from the front, and fourteen swords appeared in front of him like colorful giant peaks, blocking his way.

Obviously, there is an extremely terrifying formation inside those fourteen giant swords. Once you rush in, the consequences will be unpredictable.

"Little brother, we just agreed not to fight. We can talk it out."

The lion-headed sea creature quickly transformed into his true form, waved his hands, and said in an attempt to make peace: "Besides, if I die, you will not be able to get out."

"You mean I can go out as long as you're here?"

Xie Huan stood with his hands behind his back and walked directly in front of him.

"The possibility is much greater. After all, there is strength in numbers."

"What about the four-armed one?"

"I don't know. I was entangled by the ghostly light when I came in, and then I was sucked in. It took a lot of effort to get out."

"It means that you really are worthless."

After Xie Huan finished speaking, the faces of the Lion-headed Sea Clan members changed drastically, and they became fully alert, guarding against Xie Huan's attack.

But Xie Huan ignored him and used his Eye of Insight to continuously analyze the structure of this place.

When this body of his first gained the Eyes of Insight, it only had a small portion of its capabilities, but as his realm grew, the magical powers of these spiritual eyes continued to improve.

Until the Eye of Time took over his left eye, the growth of the Eye of Insight seemed to stop.

After this change of fate, he found that his eyes were evolving again, and were almost the same as their complete state in his previous life.

It can be called a pseudo-perfect state.

Soon, he discovered the clue in this space. He stretched out his hand and pointed, and flames burst out from the huge Spark Sword, which turned into a firebird and rushed towards somewhere.

A faint light suddenly appeared in that place, which was more than ten times larger than the previous one. The golden words inside flashed violently, and a shrill voice was heard. It flashed like a meteor passing by and streaked into the distance.

The firebird missed its target and, under Xie Huan's seal, it turned into a spark and chased after it.

This time the light did not flee, but stopped in the air and suddenly grew larger, like a ray of light meeting Mars.
There was a loud bang and the sparks were quickly swallowed up by the violent collision.

"Are you the spirit of this bottle? Let us out and I will spare your life."

Xie Huan said calmly.

"It's still unknown who will spare and who won't die."

A man's voice came from the dim light.

"You are so awesome, why were you running just now?"

"You are a bit weird. You swallowed a bit of my body, so I am a bit afraid. I will hide for a while."

Youguang said honestly.

“It’s good to know how powerful it is.”

"But you only rely on the magic weapon. I don't believe that thing can completely defeat me. But I don't want to take the risk. Otherwise, you two alone are no match for me."

Youguang said this very honestly.

"In that case, let us out and we can go our separate ways."

"No, it's rare that something comes in for me to nourish myself, and I'm counting on your flesh and blood and magic weapons."

Youguang said it without any taboo.

"I see. How long have you been in this bottle? Will you die if you don't absorb blood, flesh and magic weapons?"

Xie Huan asked instead.

In fact, he didn't want to go out immediately, because Shenxin Haishan was waiting outside. He just wanted to understand this spirit of the weapon.

"How long... I have forgotten."

"Still asleep? Doesn't that mean it's okay even if I don't eat blood and flesh and magic weapons?"

"I don't know either."

Youguang's voice was a little confused.

"Then do you remember who you are?"

"..."

"Then do you know where you are? Or where is your true self, this bottle?"

"My memory is a little strange. It seems like I don't exist, but I exist at the same time. What's going on? It seems like something that happened before didn't happen, and something that didn't happen happened. Hmm, that's weird."

When Xie Huan heard this, his heart skipped a beat. This bottle could actually sense two lines of destiny?

The lion-headed sea tribe were confused by the bottle's words, but Xie Huan understood. The bottle originally had no spirit, but due to the manipulation of fate, a spirit appeared in the new destiny.

"Stop saying weird things and let us out. Also, I have a companion!!"

The lion-headed sea creature shouted angrily.

"I seem to have eaten your companion, but also seem not to have eaten him. It's strange, whether I have eaten him or not. Your companion seems to have been here, but also seems not to have been here. Ah, I'm going crazy!" The dim light shook violently, and his emotions fluctuated greatly.

Xie Huan's face turned pale. The coming in of the four arms just happened. From what Pingzi said, it seemed that two fate lines appeared when the four arms came in. One was the old one, which was eaten by it, and the other was the new one, which was not eaten, or even the four arms had never come in.

This means that the power of destiny continues...

He nervously scanned the loom lying quietly in the ring with his divine sense, and then instantly retracted it, for fear of touching this horrible thing.

"Do you think we are fools? Forget about my companion, but if you don't let us out, I will kill you right now!"

The lion-headed sea creature shouted.

"Don't be anxious. Calm down first. Tell me, how did you end up on the altar? Who is in the shrine in the middle? What is this Lingyuan Palace? Do you know the Nine Heavens Pearl?"

Xie Huan comforted Pingzi and said that he wanted to get something out of her.

"Lingyuan Palace? You are not from Lingyuan Palace? Then who are you, where are you from, and how did you get here?"

Youguang is not stupid, he directly replied to Xie Huan's words.

"Hey! How did he get here? Wasn't he sucked in by you?!"

The lion-headed sea creature was furious.

"What time is it now?"

Youguang asked again.

"Come on, let's play truth or dare. You and I will talk, but you must tell the truth."

Xie Huan clapped his hands and said.

Youguang was silent for a moment, then said, "Okay."

"Then let me ask first, who is your master?"

"I have had many masters."

"The last one."

"Xiao Yan."

Youguang said with some reminiscence.

"What is the relationship between Xiao Yan and Lingyuan Palace?"

"It's my turn to ask."

"Oh, just ask."

"What time is it now? How many years has it been in the Xianyin Era?"

"The Immortal Hidden Era? What era is that?"

Xie Huan was surprised and asked quickly.

The lion-headed sea creature on the side also changed his expression slightly, as if he had thought of something.

"You don't know about the Immortal Hidden Era?"

Youguang was also stunned for a moment, then said: "At the beginning of the creation of the world, there was chaos and no life, which was the original era. All things revived and immortals emerged, which was the spiritual awakening era. The world was in calamity, the dimensions were in chaos, and the immortals withered, which was the immortal hidden era."

Xie Huan was shocked. This was the first time he heard about the division of ancient eras. It seemed that this bottle was a product of the Immortal Hidden Era. Sure enough, there were immortals in the era when the Nine Heavens Pearl existed.

Even the owner of this bottle, Xiao Yan, might also be an immortal.

"There are no immortals in the present era. The three eras you mentioned are now untraceable. We call them all ancient eras. The earliest era with historical records is called the 'Immortal Desolate Era'. It is said that there were immortals in the Immortal Desolate Era, but then the immortals completely disappeared and entered the 'Brilliant Era' where hundreds of races rose and competed. After that, the sea race won and became the overlord of this sea, which became the 'Spiritual Awakening Era'. After that, it fell into chaos again and started a war called the 'War of the Turbid World', which ended the 'Spiritual Awakening Era' and entered an era where the human race was the overlord, which can be called the 'Apocalypse Era'. Now is the Apocalypse Era."

Xie Huan told the history he knew.

These records are all ancient materials from Yuanyanghai, while the records from Qingyun Continent are slightly different. The only similarity is that the main historical text almost all starts from the late period when the immortals declined.

The dim light turned dim and there was a moment of silence, as if it was digesting what Xie Huan said.

"Have the immortals completely disappeared?"

After a long while, Youguang asked softly.

“It’s extinct.”

Xie Huan replied.

"It's your turn to ask."

Youguang was silent for a while and then said.

"How did the immortal wither away? Something drastic must have happened, right?"

"I was refined during the Immortal Hidden Age. There were very few immortals at that time, and I don't know the specific reason. I am just a bottle in Xiao Yan's hand."

"Is Xiao Yan the owner of the Nine Heavens Pearl?"

"No."

"Who is the owner of the Nine Heavens Pearl? Is he an immortal?"

"Now it's my turn to ask, in this era, immortals no longer exist, so what is the highest level of cultivation for practitioners?"

"The peak of the Divine Transformation, maybe a little higher."

"The owner of the Nine Heavens Pearl is an immortal, but I don't know who it is."

"Then do you know Poseidon?"

"do not know."

"It is said that he is the ancestor of the sea race. In this era, it is said that the Nine Heavens Pearl was left by him, and this Lingyuan Palace has become the Sea God Temple."

"The ancestor of the Sea Clan? That should be a divine slave who lives in the Nine Heavens Pearl. Perhaps after the immortal disappeared, this divine slave got the Nine Heavens Pearl. The 'Brilliant Era' of the Hundred Clans you mentioned earlier should have been created by these divine slaves. After all, there are only primitive Black Abyss life in this world, and all other races are divine slaves."

"what?"

Xie Huan was surprised: "All races are slaves of God?"

"Yes, the only original life form in this world is the Black Abyss. The divine treasures of the various immortals contain a large number of divine slaves, many of whom were released and multiplied outside. With the disappearance of the immortals, these divine slaves became the masters of this world."

"Where do these divine slaves come from?"

Xie Huan asked quickly.

Suddenly, the space inside the bottle twisted and a figure rushed out with fear on his face.

"Four arms!"

When the lion-headed sea creatures saw that man, they shouted in surprise and joy.

"help me!"

The man was none other than the Four-Armed Sea Clan. Upon seeing the Lion-Head Sea Clan, he was overjoyed and flew over in a hurry.

At this moment, Xie Huan sensed an even more terrifying aura. At the moment when the four-armed sea creature appeared, a slender figure slowly walked out of the distortion.

It was Shenxin Haishan.

"How did you just come in? Didn't we come in together?"

The lion-headed sea creature looked at Four Arms in surprise and asked puzzled questions.

"What nonsense are you talking about? I was trapped in Lingyuan Palace and couldn't get out. I was looking for you everywhere, and suddenly I entered a hall and saw this woman, Haishan from the Lingbo royal family, but she is not Haishan, there is someone else inside her!"

Four arms looked at Shen Xin Hai Shan with horror, his body shaking uncontrollably.
