Chapter 313 Once A Legend
Realm Amalgamation.
It was said to be just a legend. A legend that had been passed on from the ancestors of their ancestors to the current generation. No one knew where it came from. However, the moment the ancestors reached the peak of Da Shikong, they became aware of this legend. Unknowingly, it entered their minds.
They were firstly frightened about it as it came from an unknown source. However, since no harm had come to them, the ancestors told their successors to be calm and just let it flow in their minds.
Just as that was the case in the past, two people found a big secret from a tomb. It was a tomb found in one of the four regions. Specifically, it was a tomb found in the Third Region. This tomb had long been scoured. Regardless, the writings on its walls were something every expert neglected—except for two people.
"Who are these two people?" Yang Lujia asked his disciple, Sheng Ao.
"What we know may not be true, but according to the records, the ones who did some research on those writings were the two Temporal Lords. The Temporal Lord of Time and the Temporal Lord of Space."
"What does these writings have to do with Realm Amalgamation?"
Sheng Ao's face turned dark as he said, "According to the Holy Light Emperor, Realm Amalgamation is the process of fusing the two lower realms with Da Shikong. To do this, it needs to activate all the vessels found in every territory in Da Shikong. He said that he was bribed before. However, the Holy Light Emperor did not agree to it as it would harm a considerable number of people, especially the mortals. He did not want to see that. As Realm Amalgamation happens, chaos ensues. Like what I said, the void beasts around the three realms would choose to attack at this moment—wherein they could enter the realms as the barriers of each realm will disintegrate to form a new one. Until then, the void beasts will continue to linger around the realms, leaving the people no other choice but to succumb to their fates."
"That's quite awful. What would those initiators get, though? What are their reasons for doing so to make everyone sacrifice their lives for them? Would they not be tangled with the chaos as well?" Yang Lujia asked, confused.
"It's because of power, I guess," Sheng Ao said. "I don't understand them, either. However, the Holy Light Emperor once said that once all the three realms are? fused into another new realm, the shackles of breaking through the Saint Emperor Realm will be undone. With that, Da Shikong would be able to catch to the higher realm. I don't know what exactly is above the Saint Emperor Realm. All I knew before was that if I reached this height, I thought I would be already invincible and I could help others as much as I could. But it seemed I was wrong."
"That's alright. I'm strong than Saint Emperors myself," Yang Lujia replied. "Even if you rally all the Saint Emperors in Da Shikong, there would be no way they would be able to defeat me. Only their death awaits them."
Sheng Ao swallowed his own saliva as he looked at the majestic posture of his master. This was the master he had all his reverence poured into. This was the master that was stronger than the Holy Light Emperor himself! Rarely had he shown his eyes shining in delight as he should not be feeling any emotions as a monk, but now, he had done it. He did not know why but the feeling was great nonetheless.
"Regardless, I wonder if this Realm Amalgamation had something to do with the 'creator' of this world," Yang Lujia whispered.
"Did you say anything, master?" Sheng Ao was at a loss as he did not hear his master much. He was too focused on imagining things.
"I said nothing. You're hallucinating." Yang Lujia ignored his disciple and looked at the crying Long Sheng, who was already kneeling on the ground. Meanwhile, his so-called friend, Gu Tian, was grinning from ear to ear like a devil that needed no salvation.
"In exchange of the cure, you can give me your dragon core instead," Gu Tian bargained.
Long Sheng was shocked. He did not expect that in order to get the cure for his son, he needed to sacrifice his own life. His dragon core is the most valuable part of his life. Once it was extracted from him, he would certainly die.
Meanwhile, Gu Tian was grinning. He was excited to obtain someone's core, especially a dragon core at that. A dragon core, like Long Sheng's, could help him advance even more and learn the rules that Long Sheng had comprehended. With that, he would be able to increase his strength and by then, he would only be below the Temporal Lord!
On the other hand, Long Guang, who was listening by the side, clenched his fists as though his pride was stomped by someone. "Master, can I kill that guy?"
"No need." Yang Lujia also noticed this. His bloodline also screamed injustice, as though this deal wasn't fair for Long Sheng and that it was necessary for him to help someone of his own blood.
This was exactly what Long Guang was feeling at the moment. He was so mad that he felt like punching the guy in front wouldn't be enough to quell his rage.
"Calm down. I'll take care of it."
"Yes, master." Long Guang gritted his teeth and looked at his master's back.
In not even a blink, Yang Lujia directly arrived beside Gu Tian. What was even more shocking was the latter's indifference. He actually did not notice that someone arrived beside him. Only Long Sheng was able to notice.
That was because Yang Lujia wanted him to.
"You…" Long Sheng's soul stirred.
Yang Lujia made a hushing gesture and winked at the dragon and mimed some words. "Leave it to me."
