Chapter 1063: The Secrets of the World
The picture on Lu Feng’s emblem was a twin-headed falcon.
Its eyes were extremely large and sharp, and it was like treating the world as a piece of meat.
The Undying Old Man didn’t doubt Lu Feng’s identity. Firstly, very few people knew the organization Lu Feng belonged to. Secondly, if an outsider dared to forge their emblem, that person would surely die without a burial place.
“Do you know what this god’s object is?”
Lu Feng stared at the struggling Sun Mo and asked everyone.
“Cough! Cough!”
Bai Wenzhang coughed unbearably.
“I know a little.”
The Undying Old Man was one of the top bosses of the Dark Dawn after all. With regard to the secrets of this world like this, he knew some of them.
The so-called god’s objects were skeletons excavated from a certain place in the Darkness Continent. These were known as god skeletons.
Through research done by the top-level great teachers, they discovered that the skeletons belonged to no species among the living creatures that they knew of currently.
The great teachers felt that this must be a new species, so they decided to trace its life lineage to determine which class of species it belonged to. However, to their surprise, they discovered that in the life data of any living creatures, they could always trace their origin back to the god skeletons.
Didn’t that mean that the skeletons were the ancestors of all living things?
Given the knowledge reserve in the Nine Provinces and from a theoretical standpoint, it was impossible for all living things to have the same ancestor. In that case, could one say that the skeletons were gods, and they were the ones who created all life?
This was a hypothesis that had no way to be proven even now.
“But in the process of verifying this hypothesis, my teacher discovered that if the lifeforce in the god skeleton is re-ignited, it will possess an extremely strong auto-restoration ability.
“Oh, you can also understand that as the god skeleton will gain a new life again.”
Lu Feng introduced.
“Become alive again?”
The Undying Old Man frowned. He was someone proficient in the medical arts and knew that rebirth was something impossible.
“Correct!”
Lu Feng stared at Sun Mo who was currently being devoured by the god skeleton. “Right now, it is a parasite that’s entering a new vessel. Once it succeeded, Sun Mo’s blood would possess the ability of youth recovery and curing everything.”
“This is also why it’s also known as god’s object.”
Lu Feng explained.
After hearing these words, the heart of the Undying Old Man thumped in excitement.
For an old man on the verge of death that enjoyed all the bustling ways of the world, how could he be willing to die?
Status, glory, power—these were all like cups of fine wine that caused the Undying Old Man to be unable to extricate himself.
“I can give you a portion of Sun Mo’s blood. But as for the rest, I have to bring it back to my teacher. As the price, the job of cleaning things up here will be handed to you.”
Lu Feng suggested.
“…”
The Undying Old Man wanted to ask why couldn’t he monopolize everything?
But just as this thought flashed past his mind, he gave it up. Firstly, even if he obtained the god’s object, he had no way to use it. It was the same even if he gave it to the Dawn Sovereign…
Honestly speaking, that final BOSS of Dark Dawn was too mysterious and elusive. This was especially so in this decade. Even the Undying Old Man hadn’t seen him at all.
Also, could the Dawn Sovereign excavate the greatest value from this thing after he obtained it?
“Only Sun Mo can treat my illness!”
The Undying Old Man sought to get more stakes.
“Haha, after you drink Sun Mo’s blood, you will understand the origin and meaning of this god’s object.”
Lu Feng laughed uproariously. This feeling of having everything in his control was truly good.
(Speaking of which…Sun Mo, you must not disappoint me! You have to become a qualified vessel.)
“Undying Old Ghost, Sun Mo just saved you!”
Bai Wenzhang scolded.
The Undying Old Man pretended not to have heard that. He was someone who treated benefits as everything.
“Everything you’ve done is to lure Sun Mo to become an experiment subject?”
Bai Wenzhang questioned.
“Have you just discovered this now?”
Lu Feng was speechless.
He had beguiled Xiao Feng and acted when Bai Wenzhang and Sun Mo were doing the operation for the Undying Old Man. By acting at such a timing, Bai Wenzhang would have no way to stop the operation because the identity of the Undying Old Man was very important. So, Bai Wenzhang would have to let Sun Mo operate, while he would personally head to the underground treasury…
In any case, once Sun Mo entered here, he would have fallen into the trap.
“I waited here for a total of six hours. You can’t possibly be thinking that I was doing research on this skeleton, right?”
Lu Feng mocked.
“Teacher…”
Upon hearing the conversation of these people, Li Ziqi gritted her teeth. (As long as Teacher can live on, I’m willing to give my life up.)
The current Sun Mo could no longer hear anything. He felt like someone that had dropped into an ocean and kept sinking no matter what he did.
An unknown liquid was in the surroundings, and there would occasionally be strings of bubbles erupting.
Numerous symbols, which he completely couldn’t understand kept assembling and disassembling, floating around him aimlessly.
“What are these? Spirit runes?”
Sun Mo subconsciously searched for the ‘rule’ governing them. After that, he was completely immersed. This was because the symbols were too beautiful.
It was like how mathematicians would find numbers beautiful, as an ancestor-level spirit runist, Sun Mo also instinctively appreciated these symbols.
Sun Mo continued to sink. Just when he started to ignore everything and wanted to fully focus on researching these symbols, a creature which Sun Mo couldn’t name, something similar to a giant fish, swam over in the darkness and bit his arm. After that, the ‘fish’ dragged him rapidly toward the ocean’s surface.
Rumble! Rumble!
At this moment, the original calm and quiet ‘ocean’ suddenly started boiling. Those symbols suddenly emitted a vast amount of light. When the light vanished, they transformed into various monsters and started to pursue him.
“What’s going on?”
Sun Mo stared at the bloody maws below that were charging at him. An instant later, he felt his scalp turning numb.
Just when he thought that he was finished, that giant fish that was biting him suddenly jerked its head forcefully.
Pak!
Sun Mo was shot out like a cannonball and flew out from the ocean’s surface.
At this moment, it represented that Sun Mo’s consciousness had returned. He saw Lu Feng, the captured little sunny egg, and also Bai Wenzhang who was on the verge of death.
“Lu Feng!”
Sun Mo roared and charged out.
However, the scene of the giant fish being completely devoured by those monsters after it had saved him flashed through in his mind.
“What?”
The Undying Old Man was shocked.
Why was Sun Mo alive?
Moreover, his speed was so quick!
Sun Mo moved and appeared before Lu Feng in an instant. After that, he punched Lu Feng’s face.
Lu Feng tried to block, but he was too slow.
Bang!
Lu Feng was struck. After that, a sharp scream of misery rang out beside him. A spiritual beast kneeled as its body was covered by bloody wounds.
“An invisible beast?”
The Undying Old Man felt some terror.
This Lu Feng had so many methods. Luckily, he didn’t act earlier or he would have suffered a disadvantage.
“Teacher!”
Li Ziqi was extremely joyful. Her teacher was alive.
“Junior martial brother, you…”
Before Lu Feng could finish speaking, Sun Mo punched his face repeatedly.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The damage Lu Feng suffered wasn’t great because he made use of his connection with his spiritual beasts to shift the damage to them.
“Damn you!”
Sun Mo lifted his hand and unleashed his full strength.
(Go to hell!)
