(Second Update!)
— — —
Under the lead of Dong Ling, Jian Wushuang arrived at the Bone Emperor Castle.
After entering the Bone Emperor Castle, all he could see was a sea of white bones. There were countless of them.
When they reached the deepest part of the Bone Emperor Castle, on a high platform that was completely made of skeletons, Jian Wushuang finally saw the Bone Emperor.
"My Lord, Mr. Sword One has arrived," Dong Ling shouted respectfully to the Bone Emperor.
"Greetings, Lord Bone Emperor." Jian Wushuang also bowed humbly.
He knew very well that in terms of strength, the Bone Emperor far surpassed him. In front of the Bone Emperor, he should maintain a certain level of respect.
While bowing, he was also sizing up the skinny, short, and ordinary old man on the throne. At first glance, this old man looked no different from an ordinary person. If this was not the Bone Emperor Castle, Jian Wushuang would not have imagined that this old man was the overlord of the Nine Realms of the Golden Crow, the Bone Emperor.
"Dong Ling, you may leave first," the Bone Emperor ordered. His voice was rather feminine.
"Yes." Dong Ling immediately left. In this vast space of bones, only Jian Wushuang and the Bone Emperor were left.
"Please take a seat." The Bone Emperor waved his hand, and immediately, a throne made of white bones appeared behind Jian Wushuang. Jian Wushuang did not stand on ceremony and directly sat down. Then, the throne immediately rose to a high place and sat on equal footing with the Bone Emperor.
"Sword One, do you know why I invited you here today?" The Bone Emperor looked at Jian Wushuang with a smile.
"I don't know. Please enlighten me, Lord Bone Emperor." Jian Wushuang shook his head.
"Actually, it's nothing. I just feel that you have great potential, so I want to meet you," the Bone Emperor said.
"That simple?" Jian Wushuang frowned.
Of course, he did not think that the Bone Emperor's purpose would be so simple.
"Sword One, I have investigated your information. You come from the Pill Sun Sacred World, and you have only risen for a short period of time. When you rose, you have been trying your best to help the declining Crimson Stone Castle. However, as far as I know, there is no conflict between you and the Crimson Stone Castle. So, if I am not wrong, you should have a close relationship with the fallen Crimson Stone Saint, right?" The Bone Emperor suddenly asked.
"Yes." Jian Wushuang did not deny it.
"Could it be that you are the personal disciple of Saint Crimson Stone Castle?" The Bone Emperor asked.
"No. Jian Wushuang shook his head. "Crimson Stone Saint and I are just partners. His remaining consciousness has given me a lot of benefits, and I promised to help his daughter, Yin Su 'er, get out of her predicament so that she can completely control Crimson Stone Fort."
It was not convenient for him to announce his relationship with Crimson Stone Saint and their agreement.
But now that the Pill Sun Sacred World had completely stabilized, there was no need to hide this matter.
"Is that so?" The Bone Emperor raised his eyebrows, but then he smiled evilly and said, "That Crimson Stone Saint really has good taste. He's already dead, but he can still invite such a genius to help Crimson Stone Fort. If it weren't for your full help, Crimson Stone Fort would have long ceased to exist."
After a pause, the Bone Emperor spoke again, "For a genius like you, or even a monster, I'm afraid that Crimson Stone Saint has paid a great price to get you to work for him wholeheartedly."
Jian Wushuang's expression changed. He vaguely felt that this Lord Bone Emperor was trying to trick him again.
"The Crimson Stone Saint did pay a price, but I wasn't even an Ultimate God when I made the agreement with the Crimson Stone Saint. Naturally, my vision was very limited. The treasures given by the Crimson Stone Saint weren't that precious, but they were very useful to me at that time. I'm a person who values friendship and will do my best to fulfill my promise to others. I'll do my best to fulfill my promise to the Crimson Stone Saint even if it's difficult," said Jian Wushuang.
"That's not right, is it?" The Bone Emperor suddenly smiled strangely. "After all, it's a heaven-sealing painting scroll. It's a treasure that many Immortal Saints will fight for crazily. Why does it become an insignificant treasure in your mouth?"
Hearing this, Jian Wushuang's expression suddenly changed. Although he immediately recovered, the Bone Emperor still noticed it.
The Bone Emperor's eyes immediately flashed with a bright light. "As expected, Crimson Stone Saint gave you the heaven-sealing painting scroll in his hand!"
"Lord Bone Emperor, if you have anything to say, feel free to ask. There's no need to beat around the bush to get information from me." Jian Wushuang frowned and was a little unhappy.
"Haha, don't be nervous. It's just that I couldn't be sure before, so there are some things that I can't say. But now that I know that Crimson Stone Saint's heaven-sealing painting scroll is in your hands, it's easy to handle." The Bone Emperor smiled indifferently. "The heaven-sealing painting scroll is a good thing. It's said that the complete heaven-sealing painting scroll contains a great opportunity and is even related to a great secret. Unfortunately, the heaven-sealing painting scroll has been divided into countless pieces a long time ago. It's impossible to gather the complete heaven-sealing painting scroll."
"However, there have long been rumors in the outside world that even if there's only one heaven-sealing painting scroll, it's of great help to cultivators. Gathering two is more useful. As for gathering three, it's said that you can get an extraordinary opportunity. Although I don't know if this rumor is true or false, since it can spread throughout the entire absolute beginning divine realm, it's most likely useful. I've known for a long time that Crimson Stone has a heaven-sealing painting scroll in his hands. Even his death has something to do with the heaven-sealing painting scroll."
"However, ever since his death, some of the treasures in his hands have been spread out from Crimson Stone Fort. However, there has been no news of the heaven-sealing painting scroll. I only heard that he left it in his tomb, waiting for someone who could pass his test and become his personal disciple."
"Since the consciousness left behind by Saint Crimson Stone has met you for the new year and reached an agreement with you, then the heaven-sealing painting scroll has most likely fallen into your hands. Only a treasure like the heaven-sealing painting scroll can move a genius like you. That's why I deliberately tested you just now. Now it seems that it's true."
Jian Wushuang's expression had become somewhat cold.
"Indeed, the heaven-sealing painting scroll is in my hands. Could it be that Lord Bone Emperor is here for the heaven-sealing painting scroll?" Jian Wushuang stared at the Bone Emperor.
"Don't misunderstand. I'm not very interested in the heaven-sealing painting scroll in your hands. After all, you're not the only one who has the heaven-sealing painting scroll. I also have one." As the Bone Emperor spoke, he flipped his hand and immediately took out an ancient scroll that emitted a mysterious aura.
