Chapter 902: Make Way For Yin Soldiers (1/2)
As for why the realm monsters wanted the world of celestials, well, the blood demon had no idea. Luo Houluo and the realm monsters were just using each other, but upon the former’s transformation into Asura, his heart was flooded with the desire for annihilation and he no longer paid any attention to the realm monsters.
He would also be a direct cause for the future demise of the realm monsters, which was one of the main reasons why Hongjun hadn’t personally killed Asura in his infancy.
“So where are we and why is the bow’s world connected to the outside, enabling those creatures to flood in?” the blood demon asked again when the human youth didn't answer him.
“Pangu’s tomb,” Lu Yun continued a beat later, “Akasha ghosts of the future are mutated from great emperors, so where are the ones here coming from?”
“Pangu’s tomb!!” shrieked the blood demon. “Do you want to die?! How dare you enter Pangu’s tomb? Do you not know that all of the most preeminent existences at the start of the world—staggering powerhouses on par with Leize—died inside Pangu’s tomb?!”
“Existences on par with Leize? And a lot of them?” Lu Yun blinked.
“Where else do you think the sky full of stars comes from?” the demon sneered. “In that first batch of most preeminent connate demon gods, Leize and Huaxu were just the lowliest, most ordinary members. But they all died in this tomb, down to the last demon!
“You’re just seeking death by coming here, and you've dragged me down with you!” the blood demon concluded with an indignant outburst.
He should've just squashed this harbinger of doom in its infancy the first time he met the human youth. Who cares about the future? He could’ve set up his own empire in the great wilderness and lived off the fat of the land as its supreme ruler!
Plus, with his knowledge of future events and personal experience in many matters, he would be able to pursue good fortune and evade disaster for a longer life.
“And, I can tell you that there were more than three creators upon the world’s inception. There were a full hundred and eight of them! They’re all dead now, all of them. There’s only Pangu and God left!
“That mysterious Daoist Hongjun didn’t reach this phenomenal level until later on in life. The great wilderness already once endured a cataclysm of great destruction before Taiyi, Fuxi, Dijiang, Nuanzi, and the others were born!
“Do you know what great destruction means? It was the utter collapse of the heavenly dao and death of all living beings. Even the skies were pierced through!” The blood demon became highly agitated. “Do you know how the Blood Sea was formed? Where do you think the endless blood comes from? It’s the blood that flows through the veins of all living beings from when the great wilderness crumbled!
“And do you know how Pangu died? He—” The blood demon suddenly cut off when he was about to reveal that incredible secret. All Lu Yun saw was soundless mouth shapes, and even the mouthed words slowly became disorderly and obscure.
“It looks like the great god’s death is another taboo,” he sighed with resignation.
Turning beet red from the force of his efforts, the demon god finally roared, “Release me!”
“Release you so that you can destroy the world?” Lu Yun snorted.
“I came to my senses after returning to the great wilderness! The obsession for seeking out annihilation has dispersed! I’m a blood demon now, not Asura!” The demon struggled futilely.
Raising an eyebrow, Lu Yun summarily released the blood demon.
Jerking with shock, the blood demon stood up, stretched with great relish, and then… pounced on Lu Yun with a snarl.
Rolling his eyes, Lu Yun slapped him back with a casual backhand.
The blood demon glared at the human for a very long time before plopping on the ground. “This is your world, you make the rules!”
