Chapter 1374: Terrifying Curse
In an instant, the old woman's body suddenly revealed a fierce murderous intent.
The feeling of giving hope and then destroying hope is enough to drive anyone crazy.
Even as a god powerhouse, at this moment, she was a little unable to control her emotions.
"Don't get excited, senior, I'm just saying, I can't do it for the time being. ”
Sensing the murderous intent on the other party, Bai Le hurriedly explained: "Even if the seniors don't believe me, they should also believe Kun's judgment." ”
At the mention of Kun again, the old woman's mood eased a lot.
It is true that she does not trust Bai Le, but she trusts Kun very much.
"What exactly are you trying to say?"
Looking at Bai Le coldly, the old woman asked in a deep voice.
"High Priest!"
After thinking about it, Bai Le changed his train of thought and said slowly: "It's not just you who want to break the curse and leave here, so do I, please believe, no matter what, I will definitely do my best to dissolve the power of the curse, and our goal is the same." ”
After a pause, Bai Le continued: "It's just that since you want to dissolve the curse, then you should at least tell me how this curse came about, so that you may be able to find a way to dissolve it." ”
This statement was so plausible that even the high priest could not refute it.
After a slight pause, she slowly spoke: "I don't know how the curse appeared, I don't know very well, judging from the records of our ancestors, our clan originally lived on an island, but one day, I don't know why, the island suddenly fell!
"The Kun was originally the guardian beast of our clan, and when our clan was facing the catastrophe of annihilation, it was it that did its best to swallow the entire island and sink into the deep sea, so as to continue the continuation of our clan!
In the days that followed, the curse was formed...... The entire island has turned into an underwater city, and all of our people have given birth to fish tails and gills, and they can survive in the water, but they also can't leave this sea area!"
His eyelids jumped slightly, and Bai Le interjected: "Wait a minute...... You say, according to the records, didn't the predecessors personally experience the events of those years?"
"How is that possible!"
Shaking his head, the High Priest replied in a deep voice, "I only have a lifespan of less than a thousand years now...... The high priests of our clan have all lived for thousands of years at most! How can we experience what happened 10,000 years ago?!"
"It can't be!"
A hint of horror flashed in his eyes, and Bai Le said in disbelief: "How can a god powerhouse only have a thousand-year lifespan!"
“......”
At the mention of this, the high priest's eyes couldn't help but flash a hint of yearning: "According to the records of the clan, the gods and spirits are strong, not only have endless life, but also have eternal youth and will never grow old. ”
"But since my people were cursed and plunged into this deep sea, nothing like this has happened. ”
As he spoke, the high priest's figure suddenly changed, and in the blink of an eye, he changed from an old woman to a young girl.
With a delicate face and a beautiful posture, the whole person is full of indescribable style!
Obviously, when this high priest was young, he was also a stunning beauty!
But now, she has long lost the appearance of her youth.
Now she can only rely on illusion to remember her appearance when she was young.
Looking at each other, Bai Le was finally moved!
No wonder when the Divine Venerable was mentioned, the other party didn't seem to be so excited, obviously they trusted Kun more than the Divine Venerable.
I'm afraid that all the legends about the gods are also told to them by Kun.
Therefore, she could feel the breath of Kun from herself, but she could not recognize the Heavenly Secret of Creation.
It's just that...... A thousand years of life!
A god powerhouse only has a lifespan of a thousand years, and he can't even maintain his appearance, and he is constantly aging, which is also too terrifying.
Originally, Bai Le thought that the curse here was just that people couldn't leave the sea to survive and were trapped here.
But I never thought that this curse would have such a huge impact on lifespan.
As if suddenly remembering something, Bai Le blurted out and asked, "Here, how long can ordinary people live?"
"Thirty years!"
The High Priest was silent for a moment, and then spoke slowly.
“......”
This answer is really sensational!
Thirty years!
And I am afraid that it also includes a large number of low-level cultivators.
Bai Le suddenly remembered that when he came all the way, everyone he saw on the street looked extremely young, and at that time, he still felt that there seemed to be all handsome men and beautiful women here, looking pleasing to the eye, but now that he thinks about it, he is full of horror.
Under normal circumstances, each generation would only live for thirty years...... What a horrible thing it would be.
Taking a deep breath, Bai Le Zhengse said: "Senior, don't worry, no matter what, I will definitely do my best to resolve the curse." ”
Feeling Bai Le's sincerity, the expression on the high priest's face softened a lot: "I have a heart! Anyway, you were brought by Kun, and you did not hesitate to go into danger to help us resolve the curse...... This kindness will be remembered by our clan!"
"Dare to ask the High Priest, is there anything special about this, or ...... Where is the source of this curse now?"
After pondering for a moment, Bai Le asked again.
"Nope!"
Shaking his head, the High Priest explained, "Our people have already searched all the places here, and there are no clues...... There is no possibility of escape!"
"That enchantment, can't even the gods and spirits break through it?"
Thinking of the enchantment when he came, Bai Le asked with some puzzlement.
He knows very well how terrifying the gods and spirits are, and the space of a realm is broken, let alone an enchantment.
"It's not that it can't be broken, it's that it can't leave!"
With a bitter look on his face, the High Priest said helplessly, "In fact, as long as you have the strength of a demigod, it is enough to try to cross the barrier...... But once you leave the range of the enchantment, you will age rapidly, and your strength will continue to fall!"
"To tell you the truth, I've tried to go through the barrier and see the outside world...... However, after leaving, in just half an hour, my strength fell to the level of a demigod, and my appearance quickly turned old! I had to rush back as soon as possible...... But even so, I am aging faster than all the previous high priests!"
"I'm only over 700 years old this year...... But I feel like I only have ten years to live at most!"
“......”
This result was also something that Bai Le didn't expect at all.
What the hell is this damn curse!
Once you stagnate and run the Heavenly Demon Skill, and let this power erode into your body, you may also fall to this point...... It's terrible!
