Perfected Lord Tianlan did not mind Lu Chen's somewhat disrespectful words. He gently patted Lu Chen's shoulder and gestured for him to look at the sky outside the hall.
Lu Chen looked over and saw a boundless sea of blood drowning everything in the clear, ring-shaped sky. At the same time, the waves of blood were surging, and it was obvious that they were closing in on the center.
Lu Chen immediately thought of his nightmare. The sky had been completely swallowed by the sea of blood, and there was no longer any living creature in the immortal city, including Mount Celestial Dragon, under the sea of blood. That scene was too horrifying and shocking, so it was still clearly appearing in front of his eyes even now.
Although it was only a dream, it was too realistic. Lu Chen felt his throat go dry. He turned to look at Perfected Lord Tianlan and asked after a while, "Must we do this?"
Perfected Lord Tianlan did not answer him immediately. He stared at the sea of blood in the sky and said indifferently after a while, "This blood moon phenomenon is mysterious and strange. It's no longer possible to find out its origin. I've searched through ancient books and scrolls, but I found nothing. Even the ancient books of the demon race in the Immortal Alliance have no record of it … "
Lu Chen was stunned. "Those disappeared demons still have books passed down?"
Perfected Lord Tianlan smiled. "Of course. Zhenxianmeng is rich in the world. As long as it exists in the world, there's nothing he can't get."
Lu Chen nodded. "Since there's no record of it in the ancient books of the demon race, how did you …"
Perfected Lord Tianlan said, "Because I have an extremely powerful master just like you."
Lu Chen was silent for a while before he said, "Alright …"
Perfected Lord Tianlan seemed to find Lu Chen's helpless expression very interesting, so he laughed. In front of his only disciple, this person who had stood at the peak of the human race for many years and had always been aloof seemed to have found some joy like an ordinary person. Perhaps it was because of this that this bald-headed Perfected Lord still had some humanity in him.
"My master, who is also your grandmaster, Master Tianhong, was the boss of Zhenxianmeng for a period of time. The mysterious ruins under the immortal city were discovered by him, and not long after, he presided over the grand sealing ceremony to completely seal the underground ruins."
Lu Chen frowned and thought carefully for a while. He suddenly raised his head and said, "If I remember correctly, Tian … Hmm, my grandmaster soon returned to his hometown after sealing this place. He left Zhenxianmeng and returned to Kunlun Mountain to spend the rest of his life."
Perfected Lord Tianlan nodded and said, "That's right. That was indeed the case back then. Apart from the fact that my master was old and frail and had no heart to worry about trivial matters, he also had another reason, which was that he had taken in another talented disciple and was preparing to return to the mountain to properly groom him."
Lu Chen coughed and did not say anything. Unexpectedly, Perfected Lord Tianlan also stopped and looked at him with a smile. "Do you want to know who his disciple is?"
Lu Chen gritted his teeth and exhaled. He said grumpily, "What's the point of this?"
Perfected Lord Tianlan laughed loudly as if he was very happy with this small and boring amusement. From the side, he seemed to have suddenly become a little more lively. However, he didn't continue to boast. He just smiled and said, "Your grandmaster explored the depths of the relic alone. After that, he came out and told the other Supremes of the same generation. Then, he strongly advocated for the seal, and in the end, he left …"
Lu Chen immediately keenly sensed some key points in Perfected Lord Tianlan's words and said, "That is to say, when grandmaster was in the depths of the underground relic alone, there was some unknown secret?"
"That's right. When he was in the depths of the underground relic, apart from discovering the relic of the Demon Clan and the terrifying entrance related to the Blood Moon Anomaly, he also found a dragon."
"Dragon?" Lu Chen was stunned for a moment and then his expression changed slightly. He said, "Is it the black dragon in the forbidden area of Tianqiongyun Mountain in Kunlun Mountain?"
When he said this, Lu Chen had already confirmed in his heart that the Dragon Race had long since ceased to exist in this world. All the information about the Dragon Race that had been circulating for many years was a legend from the ancient mythological era. It was also because of this that he was also greatly shocked when he saw the black dragon in the forbidden area of Kunlun Mountain.
If he guessed correctly, this black dragon should be the only dragon left in this world.
Perfected Lord Tianlan nodded and said, "Yes, it's that black dragon. That black dragon has a great origin and is an ancient divine dragon that is close to immortality. Moreover, it is the mortal enemy of the Ghost Clan in the Netherworld Palace of the Underworld. For countless years, it has existed to stop and destroy the Ghost Clan. "
"Ghost Clan …" It was another strange but chilling name. Lu Chen connected what Perfected Lord Tianlan said and thought about it. He had a rough outline in his heart and vaguely guessed something.
He looked at Perfected Lord Tianlan with a solemn expression and said in a low voice, "Are you trying to make a fuss about the Ghost Clan? That's why you brought that black dragon back from Kunlun Mountain? "
Perfected Lord Tianlan said, "When your grandmaster found that black dragon back then, it was already greatly injured. Although grandmaster treated it in many ways, it could no longer appear in the mortal world and could only live in the dark forbidden area." He glanced at Lu Chen and sternly said, "It won't be able to live for long, so the Black Dragon decided to open the seal ahead of time and release the last of the ghouls in order to perish together with these old enemies."
Lu Chen was silent and didn't know what to say for a moment.
Perfected Lord Tianlan continued, "So what I did was just going with the flow. At the end of the day, even if I didn't do it, that black dragon would most likely trigger the phenomenon of the Blood Sea and break the seal to lure out the Ghost Clan. Since that's the case, it's not a big deal for me to make use of it, right? "
Lu Chen slowly raised his head and looked at Perfected Lord Tianlan with a strange expression. Perfected Lord Tianlan asked, "Why? You don't believe me?"
Lu Chen shook his head. "I believe you. I just didn't expect you to tell me so much."
Perfected Lord Tianlan laughed. "You're my disciple after all. I've told you before that I've decided to trust someone in this world and that's you."
He reached out and patted Lu Chen's shoulder gently before saying in a low voice, "Help me well and accomplish this great feat. I'll die of old age one day in the future as well. At that time, this foundation will naturally be yours."
Lu Chen was silent for a moment. "I'll naturally help you. However, before that, there's something that I have to ask you."
"Speak."
"I believe everything you say. However, did you really believe everything that the black dragon said? "
Lu Chen stared into Perfected Lord Tianlan's eyes and asked in a deep voice.
