Book 20, Jindan Upgrade, Chapter 9 – Wall Carvings
Ehpeak said hurriedly, “I really am ashamed Just now, I actually took you to be Snowfiend and immediately attacked you! Fortunately, you are very powerful, which is why I didn’t injure you If I was to have slain you…by the tiret, it would be too late Alas…I never would have thought that I, Roughpeak, would end up in a state where I would launch killing bloithout even trying to ascertain the situation clearly” A hint of grief flickered in his eyes
“You cannot be bla smiled
“But it truly is hpeak frowned as he looked at Ning “Junior apprentice-brother Darknorth, you should kno dangerous Undermoon Lake is Many Empyrean Gods have entered since the Primordial Era, but the only one to actually leave was Buddha Jue Why were you so foolish as to enter this place? Back then, I personally watched as Reverend Jue ascended to become a Buddha I was so incredibly bored that I ended up deciding to enter Undermoon Lake to try my luck Countless years have passed since then At first, other E, long time since any have made the attempt Why have you…”
“I am indeed the only one to enter in tenand cohed “I came because I was forced to by circumstances outside my control I had to come here to procure a certain treasure”
Roughpeak nodded, then hurriedly asked, “Right, what’s the situation in the Three Realms? Did you say that my master took on new disciples?”
“The Three Real hesitated for a ’s voice was heavy, but he still forced the words out
“Storhpeak was surprised
“One which ht be evennodded
“How can that be possible? So many people died in the war that ended the Prihpeak was shocked and stunned
“That tiu level, which is e ed to avoid disaster This ti didn’t hold anything back from this disciple of Exalted Celestial Carefree If they all ed to survive, they would be on the sa about the storm that had embroiled the Three Realms
The telling of this tale took a full hour
Roughpeak stood there in a daze He muttered to himself, “How could this have happened? After the Sea was peaceful Why is it that all of a sudden…” He paused “This time, Mother Nuwa isn’t around to keep the peace nobody in our Nuwa Alliance is capable of countering the abilities of the Lord of All Fiends However, the Seamless Gate will find it difficult to counter our leaders as well The only result would be heavy losses on both sides In the end, how many of us will possibly survive?”
When he had been in the Three Realms, the Three Realms had been in a state of peace But now, the storm had descended upon it
“Either the Sea said calh I a to me that one of our two sides has to be wiped out”
“Even you can sense it?” Roughpeak was surprised
“Yes” Ning nodded
“Why…why is destiny forcing a tribulation like this?” Roughpeak simply didn’t understand
Tribulations and storms didn’t descend without a reason The war that ended the Pri towards each other and colliding together The Lord of the Deu Chaosworld resisted hireat war erupted In addition to that, the Lord of All Things was s in secret
The secret workings of fate would only reveal the results The results in this case were that one side would definitely be wiped out Only if one side iped out would the other side survive
As for the reason for the storm? That was all left up to conjecture
The Nuwa Alliance’s guess was that it was very possible that this was all caused by the ‘king’ of the Seau level He had ed hiun to awaken Part of his consciousness was already awake Through its partial control over the Heavenly Daos, it was providing intelligence reports to the Seaainst the Nuwa Alliance
This inevitably caused the Three Emperors and the leaders of Daoism and Buddhised to escape the restrictions of the Heavenly Daos Was he seeking to cause yet another storm?
Or was there perhaps yet another alien Outsider causing trouble from the shadows?
Or was there another, even more inscrutable reason?
It was hard to say
