"This...... Alright. Thank you, everyone!"
Ye Qinghan accepted the three Blood Badges of the Divine Battle God without hesitation. These were good items. Back then, Ye Tianlong had relied on these items to rally the masses and slaughter his way to Heavenly Demon City. He wasn't going to take them, but he wasn't going to take them.
When the Saber Emperor saw that Ye Qinghan had accepted the items, he glanced at Ye Ruoshui and the others. The five of them nodded, then bowed deeply to Qinghan. The Saber Emperor bowed and said in a low voice, "The second matter is that we would like to ask you a favor on behalf of the citizens of the Flame Dragon Continent!"
"Ah? This...... What are the five of you doing? Hurry up and rise! "
Ye Qinghan was playing with the three War God's Blood Medallions when he suddenly saw the five people bowing to him respectfully. What a joke! One of these five was his ancestor, while the other was his wife's ancestor. Would he dare to accept their bow? That would shorten his lifespan. He hurriedly jumped up and was about to help them up.
"Ye Qinghan, if you don't agree, we won't get up!" the Saber Emperor said seriously, refusing to get up. The five of them seemed to have steeled their hearts and continued to bow. Even Ye Ruoshui and Yue Xishui were silent, as if waiting for Ye Qinghan's response.
"I agree. I agree to anything. Is that okay?"
Ye Qinghan's expression became bitter. They were basically forcing him onto the path of death. His ancestor and four people who could be his ancestors were begging him like this. Even if they wanted him to challenge that baldy in the Divine City, he had no choice but to do so.
"Yes, I thank you on behalf of the entire Fire Dragon Continent. If you can succeed in this matter, you will be the savior of the entire Fire Dragon Continent!" The five people stood up at the same time. They didn't look unnatural at all. Instead, they looked at Ye Qinghan with gratitude.
"Wait, the Flame Dragon Continent? What does this have to do with the Flame Dragon Continent? "
Ye Qinghan surreptitiously glanced at Ye Ruoshui and Yue Xishui. When he discovered that the two of them weren't embarrassed in the slightest, he twisted his body and asked in surprise. His heart was pounding. How could the Flame Dragon Continent be a small matter? It seemed like these five old fellows were going to give him a heavy burden. At the same time, he was also very puzzled. Nothing big happened in the Fire Dragon Continent? Now, the foreign races had either been killed or retreated. The continent was at peace!
"What we beg of you is that you must do your best to save the Fire Dragon Continent!" Saber Emperor pondered for a while, and said in a serious manner.
The more Ye Qinghan heard, the more confused he became. "Save the Fire Dragon Continent? Why rescue? Can you make it clearer? What was wrong with the continent? Everything seems to be fine on the continent, right? "
"Wrong!"
At this moment, Ye Ruoshui, who had been silent the entire time, suddenly spoke. His eyes flashed with a trace of humiliation and anger, and he became extremely agitated.
"You said that the continent is peaceful, but that's all on the surface. It's all an illusion...... Let me explain it to you this way. The Flame Dragon Continent originally belonged to the people of the Flame Dragon Continent, but after the first world-destroying battle thousands of years ago, the Flame Dragon Continent no longer belonged to us. We...... are now just a bunch of livestock, a bunch of livestock that can be killed and played with as they please! "
When Ye Ruoshui finished speaking, he seemed to have triggered a memory in the hearts of the five of them. A trace of sorrow, a trace of pain, a trace of humiliation, and a trace of grief and indignation appeared on their faces......
The continent isn't ours? We're livestock that's been reared?
Ye Qinghan looked at their expressions as he repeated Ye Ruoshui's words. A few thousand years ago? The world-destroying battle? He vaguely understood, but he didn't dare to be sure. He asked, "Ancestor, do you mean the Divine City? The Divine City reared the people of the continent? But the Divine City doesn't seem to care much about the continent? "
"Hehe, don't care?"
The corner of Ye Ruoshui's mouth curled into a cold smile. She shook her head slightly and continued, "The history you know and the surface you see are all illusions. You have to be clear that history is often rewritten by the victors...... The three races fought endlessly for thousands of years? Bullsh * t! In the world-destroying battle, Tu suppressed the experts of the three races, facilitated the three races' peaceful coexistence, and made a blood oath together? Bullsh * t! The Divine City won't interfere with the internal affairs of the three races! " The more Ye Ruoshui spoke, the more agitated she became. She even cursed, "Let me tell you, the Flame Dragon Continent has always been peaceful for thousands of years. Think about it, there were so many God-rank experts on the continent. Once a war broke out, would the continent still exist? There were so many peak God-rank experts on the continent, and there were countless of them. How could Tu suppress them all? Do you really think he has the aura of a bastard? Intimidate the four seas with a single move? Not interfere with internal affairs? How did you encounter danger in the Prefecture Battle? When Sky Dragon brought people to the Heaven Demon City, why did the Four Guards of the Divine City come? "
"What's the truth of the matter?"
The more Ye Qinghan thought about it, the more he felt it made sense. Because he knew one more thing, the matter of the Soul Seed. This was obviously a secret force of the Divine City. Obviously, there were many of them in the Divine City. These people were monitoring the situation of the continent.
Saber Emperor interrupted, "The truth of the matter is very simple. Tu is the lord of the Flame Dragon Plane. He had mastered the Fire Dragon Continent's Encyclopedia of Life and Death. He sent people to cause a war between the three races. Then, he single-handedly killed dozens of God-rank experts on the continent, forcing all the experts of the continent to submit. They had no choice but to sign the Undercity Alliance. Moreover, he set the rules of the Prefecture Battle. It's a battle every thirty years. In fact, it's not to resolve the dispute between the three races. Instead … he's collecting the souls of the dead to cultivate dark evil techniques and to refine the Soul Pill. Every thirty years, a new generation has just grown up. Then, they have to go to the Nether Island to die. He's treating the people of the Flame Dragon Continent like animals. Every thirty years, when the animals grow up, he'll kill them … "
Prefecture Battle? That's right!
Ye Qinghan suddenly realized something. During the Prefecture Battle, he discovered a strange phenomenon on the Scarlet Plains. People couldn't help but have a bloodthirsty impulse on the Scarlet Plains. The more they killed, the crazier they became. It was as if the atmosphere there had a strange magical power that made people want to kill.
Moreover, every time a battle ended, the sky above the Scarlet Plains would suddenly become windy and gloomy. It turned out that someone was playing tricks. Someone was using a special method or formation to collect souls.
He had always been curious why the Prefecture Battle happened every thirty years, and why the Elite Prefecture Battle and the Chaotic Prefecture Battle alternated. Now that Saber Emperor mentioned it, he understood. This was Tu's plan to raise people. Not only would the population of the continent not shrink, but it would also maintain a balance.
Moreover, the Prefecture Battle every thirty years would make the hatred between the three races deeper and deeper. He could easily collect the largest number of souls every thirty years. If he killed everyone at once, he could only get tens of millions of souls. But now, he could have an endless supply of souls to collect.
The people of the continent had become pigs raised by Tu. When the piglets grew up, half of the breeding pigs and piglets would be slaughtered. Then, the remaining breeding pigs and piglets would continue to give birth. After a period of time, the piglets would grow up and be slaughtered again. This cycle would continue endlessly.
"What? Why didn't anyone kill Tu? Go and resist? Although Tu is a peak Deity, with so many experts risking their lives, they should be able to kill him! "
Ye Qinghan thought it was inconceivable. Tu had descended on the continent for thousands of years. He had experienced the Prefecture Battle more than a thousand times. Tens of millions of people had died. Why didn't anyone resist? In the past, there were so many Deities on the continent. Even if they weren't a match for him, dozens of Deities could still kill him by self-detonation.
"Why didn't anyone resist? There were at least a hundred Deity rank experts from the continent, and they all charged into the Divine City, but in the end, none of them survived. Because Tu was the Overlord of the Flame Dragon Plane. Therefore, he had a mystical ability that the Divine World had bestowed upon him — — Overlord's Will. Anyone with the aura of the Flame Dragon Plane would have their strength reduced by one-tenth in front of him. How do you think this battle would be fought? Those who went would only be throwing their lives away! "
"One-tenth? No wonder! "
How could the Overlord's Will be so terrifying? Ye Qinghan recalled what Elder Lu had said. If they were in the Divine World, he would have a five percent chance of defeating Tu. But in the Flame Dragon Plane, even ten of him wouldn't be a match for Tu. It seemed like Elder Lu had stayed at the God-slaying Mountain for thousands of years and already had the aura of the Flame Dragon Plane. But Lord Devour had also stayed there for a long time. Why could she defeat Tu so easily? How was she so powerful?
After figuring out everything, he understood why the five of them were so agitated and indignant. The five of them had lived on the Flame Dragon Continent for thousands of years and had developed deep feelings for it. Every thirty years, they would see hundreds of thousands of people fighting on Nether Island. Finally, they would turn into wisps of resentful souls that were collected by Tu for cultivation and alchemy. This resentment had accumulated over the years. Wouldn't they be angry? Wouldn't they be sad? Of course not!
"There's one more thing I haven't figured out. What can I do? Even if I cultivate to the Divine Realm, I might not be able to kill Tu. Didn't you say that he has the Overlord's Will? " Although he had figured out the matter, he was still very doubtful. Could he do something that countless experts couldn't do for thousands of years?
"We don't want you to kill Tu, and you can't kill him! Because he is the Overlord recognized by the Divine World. Once the Divine World finds out that he is killed, the Divine World's law enforcement team will kill everyone in the Flame Dragon Plane! This is what Lord Devour said! What we want you to do is to cultivate to the Divine Realm, then go to Purple Island and challenge the last barrier. Finally, you will reach the Divine World and find a way to become the Overlord of the Flame Dragon Plane! In this way, you can kill Tu openly and save the Flame Dragon Plane! "Saber Emperor said as he bowed deeply again.
"Why me? Can't you guys go to the Divine World? "Ye Qinghan helped Saber Emperor up and asked again.
"We can't. Because Tu has sealed the Flame Dragon Plane. For thousands of years, no one has broken through this dead well and gone to the Divine World!"
Ye Ruoshui shook her head slowly and revealed a trace of disappointment on her face. "In the last barrier of Purple Island, he got a powerful peak-level Divine Beast from the Divine World. The Flame Dragon Plane lacks vitality. If the Divine World's experts want to cultivate to the peak, they need at least tens of thousands of years. That year, all the peak-level Divine Realm experts were killed by Tu. So … but you are different. Because you have the Divine Beast Soul Devouring Beast and the abnormal Body Fusion Battle Skill, you have the highest hope of walking out of this dead well. You will pierce through the sky of the Flame Dragon Continent and break through the blue dome of heaven! "
