C54 Deceit (1/2)
After saving the orc that was trapped in the array, Dong Lang looked at the young orc that was hit on the wall. Luckily, although his injuries were serious, he was not life-threatening, and after everything was settled, Old Orc still did not recover from his deep thought, he continued to talk nonstop about Dong Lang not understanding words, and occasionally hit his own head, and from the looks of it, he did not have much time to recover. Dong Lang helplessly sighed, and started to treat the young orc. Wearing a simple dress, he slowly walked over from the distance. Sometimes he would jump, and sometimes he would silently meditate.
After ten breaths of time, the berserk Qi in his eyes finally faded away, revealing a clear expression. Seeing that the Old Orc had returned to normal, the orc s cheered, and the normal skeleton started to show signs of a phantom, the phantom slowly shrank, and in the end, it recondensed behind the Old Orc's body and disappeared. The orc s surrounded him, as if waiting for his orders.
Unexpectedly, the skeleton lost control and fell to the ground. Due to being bound by iron chains, the skeleton was in a half-kneeling state. Dong Lang turned around and looked at Old Orc's situation. Old Orc seemed to be crying as he said something, while the other orc s continuously nodded their heads, as if they were forgiving. Seeing that his own clansmen had forgiven him, Dong Lang naturally did not say anything. However, he still did not dare to be careless. His footsteps were still seven inches from the ground, and just as Dong Lang was considering whether to take another look at the ground, the words of the orc s had already ended, and they all swaggered over to Dong Lang. Other than the Old Orc and the young orc, the rest were all lying down on the ground. Dong Lang did not understand what they meant, and looked at Old Orc with suspicion. Old Orc opened his mouth: Human, although you are very young, but your strength is way beyond mine, I wonder if you can help us pass this crisis? Old Orc's words were sincere, but Dong Lang did not dare to easily believe it, if he did not have any clever plans today, he would have lost his life.
”I know you don't believe me now. If you help us, I'm willing to die to atone for it.” Old Orc was resolute and decisive.
”That won't be necessary, but I want to know the truth of this place.” The moment Dong Lang spoke and pointed to the ground, Dong Lang's hand moved. He could clearly see Old Orc's body tremble for a moment.
”This... Can you change the condition? ” Old Orc was clearly in a difficult position.
”No need, I just need to know this. It's enough.”
”Then can you let me think about it?” Old Orc was hesitant.
”It's fine.” Dong Lang had plenty of time, but they were different. If the formation was broken, their lives might be gone. Dong Lang then sat down.
Seeing this scene, the Old Orc sighed, as if he had aged a lot in an instant. Since everyone agreed, he could not stop them, so he walked towards Dong Lang while trembling, and said: ”I'll tell you the information here, and I hope that you can do your best to help us tide through this crisis.”
”Sure.” Furthermore, Dong Lang was a cultivator who saved the world. If he was only trying to protect himself now, his dao heart would be damaged, and it would only be harmful to his future cultivation. Even if the orc did not ask for's permission, he would not leave, since there was such an opportunity, why not exchange it for some information that would be beneficial to him? As for the trial that Xiao Chun talked about, with her current strength, it would be hard to complete.
”This place is divided into eight floors, the first floor is here, and this place has already been made our clan's temple, this skeleton is our Ancestor, and in the past tens of millions of years, our Ancestor was said to be the spirit beast of a deity, but later on I heard that we had the heart of a rebel and were locked up here by that deity.” At the same time, we set up a formation that was equivalent to a ceremony and left it for the descendants of the spirit beasts, us, to use the ceremony when we encounter a calamity. It is said that they are Taoist from another time and space, and then, for some reason, they appeared here. Even our Patriarch is not clear about the situation below, and only left behind legends, but we are completely unable to detect them, or perhaps they were not. ” As the old man finished speaking, he looked towards Dong Lang, waiting for his reaction.
”Did you just start the ceremony?” Dong Lang asked with interest.
”Yes, even though it has only been activated halfway.”
”Then do you know the consequences of this ceremony?”
”Ancestor's last words: Our Immortal Beast bloodline has a thousand years of history, ten thousand year old supreme beast, ten thousand years of immortality! If something unexpected happened, he could come here and obtain supreme beast power! Reascend to the peak! ” Old Orc said his ancestor's last words word by word.
Hearing that, Dong Lang's face darkened, what an arrogant tone, it was a thousand year old! A ten thousand year old beast sovereign! Within a thousand years, one's status would reach the peak. The supreme beast king would be the ruler of all beasts within ten thousand years. Not to mention thousands or tens of thousands of years, what kind of courage would be required to reach that level? Moreover, the last words did not say that such a situation would occur. After some thought, Dong Lang finally spoke the truth.
”According to my observation, when you activated the ceremony, there were clearly two strands of awareness inside your body. According to my guess, this is a competition between you and your ancestor's thoughts. Unparalleled beast power, he would once again ascend to the peak! It should be your ancestors who led you back to the peak, and the price is your chance at survival! This formation should be the method that your ancestors plotted to revive you, not the way for you to obtain the supreme beast's strength! ” The moment Dong Lang said this, Old Orc was suddenly agitated in his heart. At this moment, the gaze he looked at Dong Lang with was no longer as though he was looking at a junior. How could a junior have such thoughts? His future was limitless!
