Chapter 426 "Snow Mountain Hidden Secrets"
(Begging for monthly votes)
Saint Rank!
From the history of the Roland Continent, there have been many strong human beings … Perhaps, even before the era of humans, in the mythical era where different races coexisted, the word "Saint Rank" had a meaning in itself: the peak of power that stood above all beings.
When an expert's name was crowned with the title of 'Saint Rank', it meant that he or she had obtained power that surpassed the vast majority of living beings in this world! He or she stood above the laws that bound this world!
No matter how one looked at it, or how one looked at it, the Saint Level had been regarded as the highest peak that any living being in this world could reach for a very, very long period of time. Perhaps it could be said that since ancient times until now, the Saint Level had been regarded as the highest peak that any living being in this world could reach!
The meaning of "the highest peak" usually had another meaning, that was: the end!
When one reached the limit, it was impossible to go any further — the end.
Therefore, when Bai Hechou casually said this sentence in an almost ethereal tone, "You're right. You're right.
"Saint Rank? I'm no longer one. "
When these words fell into the ears of the few people present, everyone's expressions changed!
•
After a long time, all the movements in the surroundings seemed to have turned into silence after Bai Hechou's "announcement". On the peak of the snow mountain, there was complete silence …
Finally …
"Haha … haha … hahahahaha …" A burst of wild laughter came from the Elf King.
Luo Xue's body had already stiffened, but at this moment, there was an expression on his face that was almost out of control. He stared at the lofty Bai Hechou, and his laughter was filled with arrogance, doubt, and … disbelief!
"You're laughing."
Bai Hechou looked at the laughing Elf King, his tone was calm as if he was describing a simple fact.
"Haha … haha … haha … Yes, yes, I'm laughing, I'm laughing." The Elf King's laughter gradually calmed down. He looked at Bai Hechou and said with a mocking tone: "You are very strong. Human, you are indeed very strong! He's stronger than anyone I've ever met! But … throughout my life, I've met many strong people, and there was no lack of arrogant people among them. After all, after possessing super strong power, people will lose their minds and reason. That feeling of transcending all living beings will make people mistakenly believe that they are really omnipotent — God? "
The Elf King was panting, but his voice was getting louder and louder. He was so agitated that even the scar on his face was bleeding non-stop. "But … a mortal being is a mortal being! You, me, us! We are only living beings in this world. No matter how strong we are … a god is still a god in the end. That is a level and domain that mortals can never surpass! Indeed … you defeated me. You are very powerful. But because of this, your arrogance made you think that you have surpassed the Sage level? Who do you think you are? God? God? "
Luo Xue stared at Bai Hechou. His eyes were like lightning, as if he wanted to see Bai Hechou waver.
However, he was disappointed.
Bai Hechou was still standing in front of him, looking down at Luo Xue. It was this angle that made Luo Xue feel very uncomfortable.
Then he heard the strong person who defeated him use an indifferent tone, as if casually asking him a question.
"Oh, Elf. Then, do you know the meaning of 'God'? "
"Of course I do!" Luo Xue was a bit annoyed. As the King of the Elves, there was no doubt that he worshipped the gods. His worship of the Elven Great God, the Guardian God of the Elves, was a kind of devotion that had already seeped into his soul: "God! Is eternal! If everything in this world will be born, prosper, and finally be destroyed … then the only thing that doesn't change is God! Because God is an eternal existence! The strength of God doesn't lie in its power or anything else, but because it is eternal! "
Bai Hechou heard this and smiled gently. Then he sighed and looked at Luo Xue with a regretful tone. "Unfortunately … wrong answer! Even though you are the one I met in this world, and are second only to me, unfortunately, it seems that you don't understand. "
•
His finger gently moved in front of everyone's eyes. With a leisurely wave of his finger, the moisture in the air was pulled out. Droplets of water gathered together in the air to form a stream of water.
Bai Hechou's face was calm. His eyes were quiet and unfathomable.
His fingertips gently touched the simulated water flow. The water flowed quietly, and even the ripples were so real.
"Elf, do you know what a true God is?" Bai Hechou's voice sounded like it came from an empty valley. "This world, this space, is like a flowing river. There are turbulence, reefs, turns … and all living things in this world are in this river … just like the fish in the river, they don't know anything. They just follow the direction of the river and let nature take its course … But occasionally, one or two especially strong fish will appear in the school of fish. They are stronger than the others and can jump out of the water to see what the outside of the river looks like. They can see what is in front of the river and what is behind it … When these strong fish see the world outside of the water, especially the direction in front of them, where there are turbulence and where there are reefs, they know how to avoid disaster. They know how to use these 'extra' things they know! And these 'fish', they think they know the rules of this world, they think they know what the river looks like … In other words, they are the so-called 'Saint level'. "
Du Wei's heart moved when he heard this. He seemed to be thinking about something. And Chi Shuiduan's face seemed to change after hearing this. Luo Xue still had a sneer on his face, but after hearing this, his face gradually changed into a thoughtful expression.
Bai Hechou's voice gently echoed in everyone's ears, "… But even so, these big fish are stronger than the others and can jump out of the water, but only for a moment. What they see is very limited — very limited. Therefore, even though they knew more than other fishes, even though they were much stronger than other fishes … they were still just fishes! This is the Saint level. "
After a pause, Bai Hechou leisurely said, "Of course, there are strong and weak among the Saint level. For example, you … Some fish jump out of the water and can only see a little bit in front of them. But some people are a bit stronger, jump a bit higher, jump a bit longer, and see a bit further … There will be a difference, but … this kind of difference, is actually not that big. "He glanced at Chi Shui Duan and Luo Xue.
The look in his eyes seemed to be silently saying, "The two of you are just stronger fishes that jumped out of the water."
Luo Xue suddenly asked softly, "Then, what's above the Saint level?"
"Above the Saint level?" Bai Hechou smiled. His smile was so peaceful, "That's your so-called 'God'!"
Unconsciously, everyone quieted down and quietly listened to Bai Hechou, this peerless master, speak.
"If we say that this space is a river, and the sages are only the stronger ones among the fishes … then the so-called gods are the river itself … No! Or, some more powerful beings. Their power is beyond the knowledge of the fish. Because these Gods could change the river at will, they could change it at will! Front, back, past, future! The so-called Saint level masters can jump out of the water and see the path in front of them, but so what? In the position of God, they can change the direction of the river at will. They can make a turn at will, increase or decrease some turbulence, reefs … In other words, they can create and delete 'rules' at will! When they can do this, they are the so-called 'God'. Different from the fish that jump out of the water, the strong fish can only see some limited things. But God, not only can they see, they can also control them! "
"Since ancient times, the legends of the Saint level masters have given them a very interesting title: the existence closest to God. Isn't that right? " Bai Hechou smiled and looked at the people in front of him with different expressions. Then he sighed softly and said in an unfathomable tone, "… the existence closest to God … close! Close! What a subtle word. However, only when one truly saw all of this would one understand how far this so-called 'close' was! Because of this huge difference, even though the Saint level is said to be the existence closest to God, since ancient times, there has never been a Saint level master who actually surpassed God! Because a Saint level master can only see 'rules', while a God can truly 'control'. "
Bai Hechou's gaze swept over Crimson Water Duan and the elf: "You, you are all just strong fish in this river. You think this is the peak of power, the highest point, the end … But you don't know, this is still far from it."
Finally, Crimson Water Duan couldn't help but ask: "Bai Hechou, what about you? Aren't you a fish in the river? "
"Me? I used to be. "Bai Hechou looked at everyone with a calm expression and said:
"But now, I've come ashore."
•
"Elf, the reason why I said you were wrong, that you don't understand … is because your understanding of God is not something you understand by yourself, it's something someone else told you! It's God who told you! God told humans that he is the strongest, that he is everything, that he is the peak, that he cannot be disobeyed, that he is … eternal?! Humph … How laughable!
God is not eternal … But the reason humans think so is because they are too small. For example, a summer insect's life was short, so it only lived for one summer. In its eyes, even a bird that could live for a few years would be considered as being able to live until winter, which was already the so-called 'eternity'! But in the eyes of a bird, a horse that can live for ten or even twenty years is considered 'eternal'. But in the eyes of a horse, a human can live for ten or even a hundred years … So the horse thinks that humans are eternal. Then what about humans? “
In fact, there is no such thing as' eternal '. What you think is eternal is only because you can't see it! Therefore, God is the same. Maybe God is stronger than humans and has a longer lifespan, but God is not eternal. "
Hearing this, Du Wei suddenly felt a sense of absurdity in his heart!
Holy shit! Bai Hechou, this super abnormal person, actually came up with a set of 'dialectical materialism'?!
"Saint rank is not the end of everything." Bai Hechou stretched out his finger and a small flame appeared at the tip of his finger. This flame was first crimson red, then gradually turned blue. Finally, the flame that was supposed to be scorching hot became light and elegant. Faintly, the flame turned into … water!
Burning water?!
This strange scene made Redwater Duan and Luo Xue hold their breaths.
This wasn't an elemental transformation caused by magic, nor was it an illusion. This is real burning water!
Water … Fire?
"This is the law!" Redwater Duan chuckled, "The real law! Not something that can be seen, not something that can be used … This is true control, complete control!
Within the range of my power, all laws are created by me, changed by me, and followed by my will! As long as I am willing, within the range of my power, ice can be hot, fire can be cold!! Everything can be changed, everything can be created … In this place, I call it … "
White River Sorrow's smile, his eyes were like that of a god's!
"I call it … Domain! My domain! In my domain, I am God! "
•
Silence!
A deathly silence!
The arrogant Redwater Duan and the proud and noble Elf King, at this moment, both of their faces were as pale as ash!
Even if Redwater Duan knew he was far inferior to Bai Hechou. Even Luo Xue who just lost miserably to Bai Hechou still had a faint thought in his heart: Although the other side is strong, he is still someone I can only look up to! Even if he is so strong that I can only "look up to him", in the end, I can still see his back from afar ….
But now, the two finally understood ….
Bai Hechou, this powerful guy, has completely entered another level! This is a level they will never be able to touch in their lifetime!
At this moment, despair spread powerlessly in the hearts of the two.
Only Du Wei was calm as he stood there quietly.
Only he knew that when he saw the flame on Bai Hechou's fingertip, when he heard the word "domain" come out of Bai Hechou's mouth.
It was as if there was a kind of ethereal feeling that was hard to grasp, but it was so real.
This feeling was familiar!!
•
"Elf, you can go now." Turning around, White River slowly walked towards the top of the stairs: "Remember my words … I could have killed you today, but I didn't. If it was in the past, I would have killed you. But now, you are the strongest existence I have ever seen in this world. I hope that the next time I see you, you'll already be qualified to be my opponent! "
I hope the next time you are qualified to be my opponent ….
This sentence deeply stimulated the Elf King's heart. A strange radiance flashed across his beautiful face. Suddenly, he let out a soft sigh and threw the broken silver thread in his hand to the ground.
After that, the prideful Elf King turned his face around and without saying a word, turned around and rapidly left along the three hundred and fiftieth flight of stairs.
Looking at the departing back of the Elf King, a faint smile appeared on Bai Hechou's face. Turning his head, he looked at Redwater Duan and Du Wei: "Well, the outsiders have left. Now, it's time for us to solve our own problems, right Duan? "
Redwater Duan had a complicated look on his face as he looked at Bai Hechou in a daze. After a long time, he suddenly sighed and shook his head: "I give up."
From this sentence, Du Wei could hear the despair and discouragement in his voice.
To be able to make a Saint level powerhouse like Redwater Duan give birth to a feeling of hopelessness, I'm afraid only Bai Hechou would be able to do that.
Redwater Duan lowered his head and thought hard for a moment. When he looked up again, his expression was a lot calmer: "Chou, I know I can't be your opponent in this life … I originally thought that although you ran in front of me, I might still have a chance to catch up to you. But now I find out how wrong I was …. "Laughing at himself:" This time I came up the mountain, I originally had two things to do. The first thing was to let Du Wei pass on a message to you. These are the last words our teacher, Granzon, left for you decades ago. "
Saying that, Redwater Duan glanced over at Du Wei.
Nodding, Du Wei immediately told him everything he knew about Granzon. His words were very brief, but he said everything he wanted to say. Bai Hechou quietly listened until the end. When he heard the words "I won't regret it", he nodded.
No one could see the change in his expression.
"Thank you." Bai Hechou's voice sounded as calm as an ancient well: "Then, what's the second thing?"
"This time I came up the mountain, I didn't plan to live anymore." Redwater Duan slowly said: "Even if I don't live for revenge, I want to live for myself! So … I want to know what secrets are hidden behind the Snowy Mountain! "
After listening to the story, Bai He Chou quietly looked at Crimson Water Duan for a while before asking in a soft voice: "Did you bring Beauty under the Moonlight?"
The one who answered was Du Wei. Du Wei quickly took out Beauty under the Moonlight and smiled: "Although I didn't come for this, I only wanted to come here and ask you to help me drive away that damned transvestite. But it seems I haven't asked you for this matter yet and you've already done it. So …. "
Before Du Wei could finish, Bai Hechou had already turned around and walked away. As he walked, he gently threw out a sentence: "Come with me, all three of you together."
•
After passing through this spacious plaza and the throne of the Shaman King that had already turned into powder, there was another mountain path behind.
At the top of the Snowy Mountain, about a few hundred meters away, there's a lone Snowy Wasp.
Connecting the square and the Snowy Wasp in the distance is a mountain path about the width of a person. This is a naturally formed ice bridge that connects the two peaks. Looking down, there's a large glacier at the bottom of the abyss!
This isn't the first time Du Wei has seen a glacier. Tens of thousands of feet below his feet, the color of the glacier is sparkling and translucent with a green glow, just like a large piece of natural jade. The area of the glacier was much larger than he had imagined.
After crossing the ice bridge, they arrived at the top of the Snowy Mountain.
The area here is much smaller compared to the places they've been to before. The mountain in front of them is a cold cave.
Looking in from the outside, one can only see a group of crystal clear ice flashing, but standing at the mouth of the cave, one can feel the cold air coming from inside! Just by standing at the mouth of the cave, one can feel their blood being frozen by the cold air!
"What is this place?! Why is it colder than outside?! "Du Wei is somewhat surprised.
"This is the place where I cultivate all year round." Bai Hechou seems to smile, but there's a trace of bitterness in his smile. "Du Wei, you also know that the curse on me causes my body to age rapidly. But only here, the extreme cold could suppress the curse on me. My body can't leave this cold cave too far … … "
Du Wei opened his mouth. "You're already so strong, but you still can't break the curse?"
It seems like only in front of Du Wei would White River show some of the emotional fluctuations of a human. Smiling, he spoke: "If I could leave the top of this mountain, then I would've directly gone down to deal with that elf."
At this time, Bai Hechou suddenly stretched out a hand. Even when he was fighting with Luoxue just now, Bai Hechou seemed to have hidden his right hand behind his back and in his sleeve from beginning to end.
When he stretched out his hand, to Du Wei's surprise, the exposed part of the arm, the fingers, the palm, the wrist, and the arm, is completely withered! It's like a dried up branch, bloodless, lusterless, just like a corpse that's been dried for thousands of years!
Looking at this hand, Jojo who was standing behind Du Wei couldn't help but exclaim in a low voice.
Bai Hechou just smiled gently and stepped into the cave. The surrounding cold air was immediately sucked in by his body. Du Wei could even clearly see the traces of cold air being sucked into Bai Hechou's mouth and nose. Traces of cold air seeped into Bai Hechou's body through the pores on his exposed skin.
Then, like a miracle, Bai Hechou's withered arm suddenly swelled up. The arm that was originally like a withered corpse regained its vitality, its lustre became moist, and its flesh and blood became plump and full …
"I think you should have heard that even compared to the previous Shaman Kings of the Great Snow Mountain, my seclusion is more powerful than the previous Shaman Kings … This is the reason." Bai Hechou's smile had a hint of complexity. "Because I can't go too far from this cave. After leaving for a while, I have to come back. Otherwise, my body will wither very quickly! "
"But you've already surpassed the Saint rank … You also have a 'Domain' that can change the laws at will!" Du Wei couldn't help but say.
"This is also why I haven't given up!" Bai Hechou's voice was filled with tenacity and pride, "Because the person who created Snowy Mountain placed this curse, the power of the laws within it is even stronger than what I am now! So unless my strength surpasses the founder of the Great Snow Mountain, I won't be able to break this curse. "
Having said that, Bai Hechou ignored the surprised expressions of the three and walked into the cave. "Come in Duan, the answer to what you want is in this cave! I defeated our teacher and inherited everything in the Great Snow Mountain from him. At the same time, I also inherited this cave! Du Wei, did you know? This cave used to belong to our teacher, Granzon! "
After saying that, he seemed to be smiling gently. "Be careful, it's a little cold in here."
There's no need for Bai Hechou to remind them.
At least when Duwei and Jojo walked into the cave, they immediately felt that they were wrapped up by an all-pervasive cold air! Although Du Wei and Jojo are not weak, the two of them tried their best to resist, but they still felt the strong cold easily penetrate their thick coats and enter their bodies through every pore.
In just a breath's time, Du-Wei already felt as if he was frozen solid. Looking at Jojo's face, Jojo's pretty face had already turned blue!
Seeing the appearance of the two, Chi Shui Duan actually took a step forward and stretched out his arms to hug Du Wei's shoulder. Soon, the powerful strength of a Saint class expert created a warm space around the three of them.
Du Wei immediately cast a grateful look, but Chi Shui Duan didn't even look at him. Instead, he asked Bai Hechou who was walking in front: "What is in this cave? Could it be the buried treasure of the Great Snow Mountain? "
"Treasure? No, you're wrong, Duan. "Bai Hechou's voice came from the front:" There is no treasure here, but … a seal! An ancient seal. "
Seal?
This word can indeed make people think of a lot of things.
"What is sealed?" Du Wei immediately asked.
"I don't know the answer." Bai Hechou's voice was a bit strange: "But I do know one thing: the existence of the Great Snow Mountain may be related to this seal! In fact, I've always had a feeling that the existence of the Great Snow Mountain may be responsible for another mission. "
"What mission?"
"There are two possibilities. First, we're responsible for guarding this place and not letting anyone outside open the seal. "Bai Hechou lightly said:" As for the second … there's something terrible sealed here. And the mission of the Great Snow Mountain is to prevent that thing from coming out! "
Du Wei's heart suddenly quivered, he didn't know if it was because of these words or because of the cold.
At this time, Bai Hechou stopped and turned back with a smile: "We're here … Now, bring out the beauty under the moonlight."
Behind him, there's an ice wall!
Standing in front of this ice wall, there's a faint light flowing on the wall. Du Wei only glanced at the wall and suddenly felt like he's looking at something … No, it's more like a picture?
Above the wall, there's a pair of eyes!
That pair of eyes can make people instantly addicted to it. Du-Wei didn't even see the color of those eyes clearly before he completely forgot everything.
He tried hard to look, and finally, he saw it clearly.
In the eyes of the ice wall, there's a person:
It's me!!
