Chapter 1031: Inquiry
"Commander of the forbidden army, I know that you can see me, and your lips are cold, don't you understand?"
The Fifth Hungry Shura Emperor, who was besieged by the Hope Martial Saints, shouted loudly, in this situation, they can only rely on Zhang Yunhao to turn over, otherwise this time they will be bad!
"Don't worry, if you're dead, I'm definitely not going to die, go with peace of mind!"
Zhang Yunhao said lightly, of course he won't die, because he has already controlled the old Radiant Martial Saint, and the reason why he doesn't do anything is to take advantage of this time to have a good chat with the old Radiant Martial Saint and figure out everything!
For so long before, the old Radiant Martial Saint had already been refined into a puppet, and at this moment, he was saving twenty-seven Radiant Martial Saints on it, that is, using the Ascension Energy to replenish their bodies!
You must know that the Immortal Array authority possessed by the Old Radiant Martial Saint is even higher than that of the Radiant Martial Saint, and the highest is naturally the Soaring Patriarch!
Zhang Yunhao asked the old Radiant Martial Saint with his consciousness: "What is in the underground forbidden area, why do you want to protect it like this, and even sacrifice everyone in the Empire of Light?"
"It is the Ascended Patriarch who sacrifices everyone in the Empire of Light, not me, I will not sacrifice the Empire of Light, let alone the Nine Saints World!"
The old Radiant Martial Saint said in a deep voice: "I am different from you outsiders, I am a person from the Nine Saint World, and the Nine Saint World is all to me!"
Zhang Yunhao raised his eyebrows and asked, "Oh, it seems that you are not just a pawn of the Flying Patriarch?"
"I am indeed a pawn of the Ascended Patriarch, he not only gave me eternal life, but also promised to let the Empire of Light rule the world when the plan is successful!"
The old Radiant Martial Saint said: "So, I am willing to be his pawn, and it has been like this for three thousand years, but to be honest, I regret it a little now, because the Flying Patriarch doesn't care about the life or death of our Light Empire at all, and cooperating with him may not be a good thing!"
"It's good that you have such an idea!"
Zhang Yunhao smiled and said, "Let's talk about it, what is the plan of the Flying Ascension Patriarch, and what are the secrets of the underground forbidden area? As the actual executor, you should be very clear, right?"
"I don't know all about the specific plan of the Ascended Patriarch, I only know part of it!"
The old Radiant Martial Saint said: "The underground forbidden area is connected to the small world where the Ascending Patriarch is located, and there is a spatial passage connected to the Ascending Core of the small world, and for three thousand years, the underground forbidden area has been absorbing the Ascension energy of the small world!"
The old Radiant Martial Saint continued: "Part of the ascension energy absorbed is used to maintain the existence of us and the Immortal Array, and most of the rest is stored in the deep well of the underground forbidden area, whether it is the Immortal Array or the Nine Dragons Void Array before, it is all to protect this deep well!"
Zhang Yunhao asked with great interest: "Then the question is, what is this deep well, and what is it for?"
The old glorious martial saint said: "The specific purpose, the Flying Ascension Patriarch didn't tell me, I only know that this deep well can lead to heaven and earth!"
Zhang Yunhao narrowed his eyes: "Tongtiandi, what do you mean?"
"It's literal, through the sky, through the earth!"
The old glorious martial saint said: "Let's talk about this part of the earth first, the other end of the deep well, connected to the dragon vein of our light empire, the dragon vein is the essence of the earth, this is the earth!"
The old Radiant Martial Saint Chao Zhang Yunhao asked, "I don't know if you know, the dragon veins of our Empire of Light are very special, completely different from other empires, which is also one of the reasons why our Empire of Light has not perished!"
"I know, I've investigated!"
Zhang Yunhao nodded and said: "The dragon qi of the dragon veins of the other major empires has been draining, if I guess correctly, it should all be lost to your Empire of Light, however, the dragon veins of your Empire of Light are protected by a large array, and I haven't been able to crack it yet!"
Of course, it's almost there, but the resentful star god has been working hard over there!
"You know a lot!"
The old Radiant Martial Saint said: "That's right, the dragon qi of the other major empires is all in our Empire of Light, to put it simply, the dragon vein of our Empire of Light is the core of the earth of this world, and the deep well is connected to it, it is connected to the earth!"
"It makes sense. ”
Zhang Yunhao said: "However, since your Empire of Light has so much dragon energy, why are you still so down, and even almost destroyed a few times?"
After the Heavenly Dao was destroyed, the dragon qi was no longer enough to affect the belonging of the world, but the bonus effect was still there, and the country with stable dragon qi would at least not have any major disasters, such as earthquakes or something, and all aspects would be very smooth, and even the emperors of the past dynasties would not be too mediocre.
The dragon qi of the entire Nine Saints World is in the Empire of Light, and it stands to reason that even if it can't dominate the world, it should be able to ensure that the Empire of Light is safe and sound, and there must be something wrong with this!
"Dragon Qi is indeed in our Empire of Light, but it does not belong to our Empire of Light!"
The old Radiant Martial Saint smiled bitterly: "That deep well is connected to the earth, absorbing most of the dragon qi, our Empire of Light is to get some benefits, to ensure that the Radiant City does not fall, at the same time, each of our emperors has also absorbed some dragon qi, only in this way, can we live forever." ”
Zhang Yunhao was puzzled: "Wait, your immortality is because of the ascension energy, right? What does it have to do with dragon qi?"
"Ascension energy alone can't make us immortal, the reason why we can live forever is a combination of the two, because our strength is flawed!"
The Old Radiant Martial Saint explained: "Without dragon qi, we can't maintain the strength of the Martial Saint level, and without the strength of the Martial Saint level, the mortal body can't accept the ascension energy at all, so both of these are necessary!"
Zhang Yunhao asked, "In other words, the reason why there are so many martial saints is because of dragon qi?"
"Yes, under normal circumstances, we are immortal, and the Key of Light cannot create another Martial Saint. ”
The Old Radiant Martial Saint nodded and said, "In order to avoid this, we have fused dragon qi, and in this way, we have become a kind of dragon qi puppet!"
Zhang Yunhao touched his chin and asked, "Dragon Qi puppet?"
"That's right, the puppet that depends on the existence of dragon qi is not a complete life, in this way, the key of light will think that we are dead, and only in this way can the royal family be promoted to the next martial saint!"
The old Radiant Martial Saint said: "It's a pity that this method is not perfect, the impact of the ascension energy and dragon qi is too strong, except for me, everyone else has lost consciousness and turned into real puppets!"
"Immortality, naturally, you have to pay a price, not to mention, your strength is still fast!"
Zhang Yunhao shook his head and muttered to himself: "The path of the Martial Saint of the Nine Saints World was blocked by the Ascension Martial Immortal, leaving nine loopholes in the middle, that is, nine keys, through which the Martial Saint can be achieved, but there are only nine loopholes, which means that there can only be nine Martial Saints." ”
"This is what I thought before, but judging from the current situation, I thought wrong, nine loopholes are correct, but it doesn't mean that there can only be nine martial saints, as long as the key agrees, in fact, as many martial saints are fine!"
"The nine martial saints are not the restrictions of this world, but the restrictions of the key, to be precise, the restrictions of the ascension of the martial immortals, he deliberately made the nine martial saints and let them fight in the nine saints world, the question is, why did he do this?"
"In addition, there can only be nine Hungry Shura Emperors, but I'm afraid it's not a restriction of the world, but the blockade of the Flying Martial Immortals, these Hungry Shura are also his pawns, he knew early on that the Hungry Shura will make waves again after three thousand years!"
"What did the Flying Ascension Martial Immortal want to do, and what did he talk about when he had a secret conversation with the Divine Envoy?"
"Was the Ascended Immortal also arranged? Also, did he really tell the Ascending Family all his plans, or was the Ascending Family just a pawn of his?"
"This time, I'm not fighting the Ascension Family, not the Ascension Alliance, not the Hungry Shura Divine Envoy, I'm fighting the Ascension Martial Immortal!"
Zhang Yunhao knows it in his heart, and he has no fear, as long as he is not a real martial immortal, even if it is a half-step martial immortal who has retreated from the martial immortal, he is not afraid, it is a battle!
He's the strongest martial saint!
Zhang Yunhao asked the old glorious martial saint: "After speaking, let's talk about the sky, what kind of heaven is the deep well connected to, and how is it connected?"
"Shenjing should be a martial art, for us martial artists, martial arts is the sky!"
The old glorious martial saint said: "The martial arts of this world are closely connected with the deep well, in fact, the reason why most people can't break through the martial saint is because of the limitations of this deep well, in short, this deep well is a sealed thing!"
Zhang Yunhao was a little surprised: "This deep well is the treasure of the Flying Ascension Martial Immortal to seal the martial arts?" Wait, didn't the Flying Ascension Martial Immortal slash the martial arts with a sword, how could there be a sealed thing?"
"Of course there are seals!"
The old glorious martial saint explained: "The Flying Ascension Martial Immortal slashed the martial arts with a sword, and the things that were cut down were sealed in this deep well, if it weren't for this, the martial arts would have healed long ago!"
"Can it be like this?"
Zhang Yunhao blinked, if this is the case, does the martial arts of the martial immortal world also have a sealed thing, sealing the way to become an immortal?
If this is the case, then as long as you find this sealed thing, wouldn't you be able to break through the restrictions and become a martial immortal?
Thinking of this, Zhang Yunhao's heart suddenly became a little excited, although he did not lack the courage to smash the door, but with the key, who still has time to smash the door?
"No wonder the Flying Ascension Patriarch cares so much about the underground forbidden area, and is even willing to sacrifice the people of the entire Empire of Light, it turns out that the deep well in the underground forbidden area is the root of everything!"
Zhang Yunhao understood a little, and he asked, "Wait, since it is the sealing thing of the Flying Martial Immortal, why is it under the palace of your Empire of Light?"
"You're getting the timeline wrong!"
The old Radiant Martial Saint said: "It was the Empire of Light that came before there was a sealed thing, three thousand years ago, the Ascension Family found me, gave me the key, and asked me to establish an underground forbidden area next to the sealed thing, and then establish a palace, and establish an empire of light!"
Zhang Yunhao pondered: "In other words, your Empire of Light actually exists to protect the things that are sealed?"
"It can be said that anyone who establishes an empire in this land must protect the sealed thing, because this is the order of the Ascended Patriarch, and no one can resist!"
The old Radiant Martial Saint nodded, and then said: "To put it bluntly, we are just pawns of the Ascended Patriarch, of course, as pawns, we have also gained a lot of benefits, such as that I am alive now, and for example, the Empire of Light has never been destroyed." ”
"That's mainly to prevent others from discovering the deep well!"
Zhang Yunhao sneered, and then said, "Since you know this, have you ever thought about breaking the deep well? You know, this thing has cut off the path of the martial saint in your world!"
The old glorious martial saint said: "Of course I have thought about it, but it is not for the path of the martial saint, you can't achieve a martial immortal, there is no difference between the primordial god and the martial saint, and there are only nine of us martial saints in this world, which is a good thing for us!"
Zhang Yunhao said: "Those with vested interests can understand it! Then why do you want to destroy the deep well?"
"To get away from this damn fate!"
The old glorious martial saint scolded: "The nine empires have been fighting each other, just like chess pieces, every time I have a descendant who dies in battle, I can't wait to destroy this deep well, I don't care about the path of the martial saint being beheaded, but this kind of thing that controls the fate of everyone in the whole world is really disgusting!"
"A little bit, indeed!"
Zhang Yunhao nodded in agreement: "Controlling the fate of sentient beings for three thousand years, and letting them keep fighting for the nine keys is indeed disgusting and hateful!"
"Hateful indeed!"
The old Radiant Martial Saint said: "However, I still didn't do anything in the end, on the one hand, I don't have the ability to resist at all, the Ascending Patriarch only needs one thought, and he can withdraw the Ascending Energy in our body!"
"Even if the Ascended Patriarch doesn't do this, we are not their opponents, the Ascended Patriarch's strength is far superior to ours, and we are only quick martial saints after all. ”
The old glorious martial saint continued: "Take 10,000 steps back, even if no one stops us, we can't break through the deep well, the deep well has three layers of defense, one is the Nine Dragons Void Array, the other is the Immortal Array, that is, the Ten Thousand Worlds Void Array, in addition, the deep well itself is also a treasure, the defense is extraordinary, and it cannot be broken if it is not an immortal thing!"
"This is also true, those who can suppress the martial arts will definitely not be so easy to break!"
Zhang Yunhao nodded in agreement, and he said, "Nine keys, is it also related to this deep well?"
The old Radiant Martial Saint said: "There should be, I heard the Flying Ascension Patriarch say that the nine keys come from this deep well, and I suspect that there should be nine key-shaped gaps under the deep well, that is, those nine keys!"
"It's possible, it seems, if you want to crack the deep well, nine keys are the key!"
Zhang Yunhao nodded and said, "I've got several handfuls now, which can be regarded as taking the lead!"
"None of them will work!"
The old Radiant Martial Saint smiled bitterly: "Unfortunately, you will never get the key of light!"
Zhang Yunhao squinted: "The key to light is not in your hand?"
"I'd love to be there, but it's really not there!"
The old Radiant Martial Saint shook his head and said, "The key to light has always been in the hands of the Ascending Patriarch, every time we need to use it, he will hand it over to me, but immediately take it back afterwards!"
The old Radiant Martial Saint added: "I understand very well what the Flying Ascension Patriarch means, the nine keys must be unified to be valuable, and if he holds one, it is equivalent to being invincible!"
