Rumble, rumble——
Thunders rang out in the dark night sky.
Cold rain and noise.
The whole world was shrouded in mist.
The two men stood beside the scattered corpses, waiting quietly.
The leader was wearing a full set of golden battle armor, with a bright red cloak behind him, and bright lights were constantly coming out of his body, making him very powerful.
It's a pity that he is wearing a visor, which prevents people from seeing his true face.
There was a shrill bird call in the distance.
"They are coming soon - please step back first. You can't listen to what we have to say." The leader said solemnly.
"Yes, sir." The attendant behind him bowed and silently ran away into the distance.
After counting the interest.
A strong gust of wind came.
Two figures appeared dozens of meters away opposite him.
A woman with gray wings.
A bald, blindfolded man wearing a monk-like robe.
"We're here," the bald man said.
"Bai Monk, actually you shouldn't be in such a hurry to see me." The man wearing golden armor said.
"kindness?"
The woman with gray wings licked her tongue and said in a drunken tone: "Monks are all ignorant. I followed him. I haven't had fun for a long time - maybe we can try..."
She slightly opened the pair of gray wings covering her body, revealing her shoulders and collarbone.
The man in golden armor took a look, reached out and took out a shield to protect himself, and took a few steps back.
The shield in his hand suddenly erupted with layers of bright light, protecting him like a protective shield.
Outside the protective shield, illusory women appeared one after another, sometimes charming and seductive, sometimes turning into skeletons and letting out ferocious roars.
"I thought he had something to say, but it turned out he wanted to have a fight with me."
The man in golden armor said with murderous intent.
He reached out with his other hand and grasped the spear on his back.
The bald monk couldn't stand it anymore and shouted loudly: "Stop it, two envoys, I am urgently calling you to meet together. I have important information to communicate with you, not to fight you to the death."
He thrust a long pestle engraved with runes into the ground.
boom--
Invisible ripples spread out.
The man in gold armor and the woman with gray wings each took a step back and stopped their hands.
All visions disappear.
The two looked at the bald monk warily.
"What happened?" the man in gold armor asked.
"To make a long story short, I hunted down the Emperor of Heaven with the messengers of the Fallen Sequence. During the whole process, I felt something was wrong." The bald monk said.
"Oh? Why didn't I notice? Am I weaker than you?" the gray-winged woman said with a smile.
A strange wave appeared on her wings.
"I don't want to talk about who is strong and who is weak now. What I want to say clearly is that you should believe in my ability to discern some hidden things. You should all understand that I am the authority in this regard." The bald monk said.
The gray-winged woman was silent for a moment and said, "What have you discovered? Tell me about it."
"We are chasing the Emperor of the Six Paths to find out what kind of sequence is hidden behind him, but after so long, no one can find out his details, and let him keep running away, but it is the people who are chasing him. The losses were huge and it made me suspicious.”
"I was wondering what was so special about him, what kept him alive."
"You know my ability in this sequence - I specifically investigated all his whereabouts. I could have drawn a conclusion immediately, but was interfered by an unexpected force."
"What are you referring to?" the man in golden armor said solemnly.
"The Emperor of Heaven - no matter who he is, he has a power beyond the sequence, and that power has deceived us." The monk said.
"What kind of power is it?" the gray-winged woman asked irritably.
"I only know what he got at the previous world gate, but the power emitted by that thing blocked my perception - I have been hit, so I can't understand it, let alone know the truth." The monk said .
Suddenly, a voice came from far away:
"You don't have to worry about anything anymore, and you don't have to pry for any more information."
The storm calmed down.
However, they saw the colorful fairy light coming rapidly from a distance and landing opposite the three of them.
——But it was a majestic man wearing a colorful shirt.
Behind him, a bright halo of incomparable solemnity revealed the shapes of six living beings: heaven, humans, evil ghosts, Shura, the dead, and the king of beasts, all of which were transformed into six kinds of light.
The auspicious clouds were rolling incessantly, and the ethereal fairy sounds lingered around him.
"It's him!"
"How dare he-"
"Let's join forces and kill him!"
The three people exchanged words quickly.
"Don't do anything, I'm here to tell you something." The majestic man said.
The man in golden armor shouted: "Emperor of Heaven, you have taken advantage of this competition. Tell me the sequence behind you, and then give up the position of Emperor of Heaven. This is your only chance to survive."
He winked at the other two.
The two people walked quickly around the Emperor of Heaven and took the other two positions.
The three people surrounded the Emperor of Heaven.
The Emperor turned a blind eye and said, "Let me tell you a secret first."
"What secret?" the gray-winged woman asked.
"Both you and all sentient beings are just a bunch of wretches. No one can escape the prison, not even those sequences and the people behind them——"
The Emperor's voice suddenly disappeared.
Gu Qingshan's eyes were filled with darkness, and he was lying on the ground. He could tell what the Emperor of Heaven was still saying just by relying on the perception of the deceased.
But apart from the opening paragraph, nothing else can be heard.
Lines of small scarlet characters suddenly burst out of nothingness and quickly appeared in his sea of consciousness:
"Highest warning!"
"This sequence has sealed you the most tightly."
"You will not be able to hear the secrets spoken by the Emperor of Heaven."
"You are safe!"
Gu Qingshan was stunned.
You are safe...
In other words, the secrets told by the Emperor of Heaven cannot be heard?
What will happen if you hear this?
Before Gu Qingshan had time to think about it, he heard three painful screams and wails erupting from the venue.
Almost instantly, the man in golden armor, the woman with gray wings, and the bald monk all turned into rising mist and disappeared into the void.
Not only did the man in golden armor turn into flying ashes, but the entire set of golden armor on his body was also completely wiped clean.
A desperate moan could be vaguely heard coming from the golden armor.
——That’s the sound the weapon spirit makes when it dies.
at last.
Only the Emperor of Heaven was left standing.
Sand...sand...sand...
The sound of rain began again.
The rain started to fall again.
The Emperor of Heaven stood in the rain and suddenly burst into laughter.
"Hahahahaha, you are not even qualified to hear secrets, how dare you come to force me?"
He laughed for a while and suddenly fell to his knees, gasping for breath.
"quick……"
"Come on!"
The Emperor shouted sharply.
A figure flew over.
But it was the attendant who accompanied the man in golden armor before!
It turns out that he was the emperor's man from the beginning.
"What is the emperor's order?"
The attendant lay on the ground and asked quietly.
"Medicine...give me medicine..." the Emperor of Heaven stammered.
The attendant hurriedly took out twelve white pills from a medicine bottle in his arms and handed them to the Emperor of Heaven.
The Emperor grabbed it and swallowed it all.
"Ahhhhhh! It hurts! It hurts so much!"
He burst into a howl of agony and rolled back and forth on the ground.
After a few breaths, he curled up into a ball again and shouted: "It's cold... so cold..."
The attendant stayed away from him, not looking at him, but facing the river, quietly on guard.
After a while.
The Emperor's moans gradually disappeared.
He stood up again, his whole body refreshed.
The attendant returned to him knowingly and asked in a low voice: "Emperor, what should I do with these corpses?"
"No matter, let's go."
"Yes, Emperor."
The two of them flew away quickly, one after the other.
A while passed.
Gu Qingshan got up from the ground.
"Old guy, come out."
he shouted in a low voice.
--no respond.
Gu Qingshan's heart sank.
Could it be that the old goblin heard the secret and was erased by something unknown?
He strode towards the grass and shouted quickly: "Old guy, come out quickly!"
Suddenly, the old goblin jumped out of the grass and flew directly into Gu Qingshan's palm. .
He grabbed Gu Qingshan's thumb tightly and shook all over.
"Scared me to death...scared me to death..."
The old goblin said tremblingly.
"Did you hear the secret?" Gu Qingshan asked.
"How dare I listen? The biggest characteristic of our goblin clan is curiosity, so the longer a goblin lives, the better it knows what things can and cannot touch," said the old goblin.
"So you didn't listen?" Gu Qingshan asked.
"Of course! Of course! When that guy spoke, I felt that the surroundings were filled with the power to wipe out everything - I knew at that time that something was wrong, so I directly closed all my perceptions and fell into a state of absolute ignorance. Only then did I survive !”
The old goblin suddenly jumped up and said angrily: "It is so cold-blooded to use that kind of secret to kill people!"
"Do you know where that secret came from?" Gu Qingshan said softly.
"No! I never want to know! We fairies can be resurrected after death, but if we hear the secret just now, we will be wiped out immediately - even the traces of our existence will be completely wiped out! I don't want that!" The old goblin shouted hysterically.
Gu Qingshan paused and said comfortingly: "Don't be afraid, that guy actually has weaknesses. You see, he took a lot of medicine before he recovered."
The old goblin sneered and said: "Gu Qingshan, considering that you are a loyal partner of our goblin clan, I will give you a piece of advice -"
"What?" Gu Qingshan asked.
"Never! Absolutely! Must! No matter what! You must not mess with that person!" said the old goblin.
"Why? Just because of the secret?" Gu Qingshan asked.
"No, didn't you just say that that person was taking medicine?" the goblin said.
"Yes." Gu Qingshan said.
"I had just been released from isolation, and I immediately saw the origins of those twelve medicines," the old goblin said.
Gu Qingshan immediately asked: "Oh? What is it?"
"That medicine has long been lost, and it was called 'The Twelve True Pains of All Living Beings'." The old goblin said.
"Twelve kinds of pain?" Gu Qingshan asked.
"Yes, after taking those twelve kinds of medicine, you can feel the pain of being a living being." The old goblin said.
"Then what?" Gu Qingshan asked.
"There is no more, that's it." The old goblin said.
Gu Qingshan fell into silence.
If there are only twelve kinds of pain... why is it called medicine?
The old goblin looked at him and said, "Don't you think it's strange? This medicine has no effect and will only cause pain. Why is it called medicine?"
"Yes, this doesn't make sense..." Gu Qingshan said.
The old goblin was silent for a long time and then said: "I have lived for 300 million years."
Gu Qingshan looked at him, waiting for him to continue.
"Because I am the oldest being in the goblin clan, so until now, I can still maintain the enthusiasm, curiosity, and greed that a goblin has..."
"As for the 'twelve kinds of suffering of all living beings'..."
"It is specially prepared for those great beings who have lived for trillions of years."
"Because those great guys have experienced everything in the world countless times, they are not interested in anything, and they completely hate all feelings. Even if everything is destroyed in front of their eyes, they cannot have any emotional fluctuations."
"But they are still unwilling to die and give up the power in their hands."
"The 'Twelve Pains of Living Beings' are the corresponding medicines."
"This medicine... can allow them to temporarily have those... the most primitive and first feelings of beings."
"It will make them feel like they are still really alive."
