Zi Dao raised his brows slightly and looked at Chu Mo with concern. That was because no one could tell what General Xie Xie was thinking from his behavior. If Xie Xie's thoughts were so easy to guess, he wouldn't be evil.
"Alright." Chu Mo looked calm and replied with his spiritual consciousness. He stood up with a smile. The flowing Daoist rhymes made many people who saw him dumbfounded. They wondered where such a charming cultivator came from.
Chu Mo's temperament and aura, as well as that faint Progenitor realm domain, should be considered very rare in the entire Graylands. In a place like the Graylands that was filled with killing, blood, plots, and conspiracies, anything beautiful could be torn to pieces at the first moment!
There was no need for beauty here!
All he needed to do was kill.
Chu Mo glanced at "Zi Dao" and gave him a reassuring look. To be honest, when he gave Zi Dao that response, Chu Mo was almost subconsciously. After coming to his senses, his heart was filled with complicated feelings.
No matter how identical this person was to Zi Dao, he was still not Zi Dao!
He was another person!
Another existence with a completely independent personality.
Moreover, once some legends became reality, then perhaps he and Zi Dao... would directly become enemies and stand on opposite sides.
I hope the truth is not like the legends.
Chu Mo thought to himself.
As Xie Xie walked, the followers beside him became fewer and fewer. In the end, only Chu Mo was left. Then, the two of them came to a seemingly ordinary house.
When they opened the door, they discovered that the house was actually an independent Small World, and there was a very strong fluctuation of a Dharma Formation. Chu Mo sensed that this kind of Dharma Formation should not even be able to penetrate it with the divine consciousness of beings at the Progenitor realm.
Chu Mo was not afraid and let Xie Xie in first.
After closing the door, Xie Xie smiled at Chu Mo. "I have no choice but to find a place like this to talk to you. Otherwise, this Xie City... will not be peaceful."
Chu Mo's eyelids twitched, but he didn't say anything. But he had a feeling that his secret had been seen through.
"I also crossed that bluestone door and came to the Graylands." Xie Xie was very direct and went straight to the point. He looked at Chu Mo with a very serious expression. "But I came here much earlier than you. I was very lucky. Not long after I came to the Graylands, I met the Evil Sovereign Patriarch, and he took me as his master. He had become his personal disciple. In the blink of an eye … several epochs have passed. "
A few epochs, that was hundreds of thousands of years!
Looking at this young and handsome man in front of him, Chu Mo was shocked.
It was Master who gave me everything in the Graylands, including fame, status, resources... everything. If it wasn't for Master, I think I might have already fallen in the Inner Demon Tribulation, "Xie Xie said.
"Heart Demon Tribulation?" Chu Mo was even more shocked. He looked at Xie Xie and asked, "You have already overcome the Heart Demon Tribulation?"
Xie Xie nodded. "Although the Inner Demon Tribulation is terrifying, it is not impossible. However, if I'm not wrong, this kind of great tribulation... should be very, very far away for you. You are really young. You achieved the Dao much earlier than me! When I achieved the Dao, I was already almost 100,000 years old. And you are at most a few thousand years old, right? What a genius! "
With Xie Xie's cultivation and status, he probably wouldn't normally praise someone. However, if he knew that Chu Mo was actually only about 100 years old, he would probably be dumbfounded.
In the entire cultivation world, there had never been a cultivator as fast as Chu Mo.
A mere 100 years was just a cultivator's normal seclusion time to comprehend the Dao. However, to Chu Mo, the Dao, which was something that cultivators pursued their entire lives, seemed to be something that he was born to know. He was naturally compatible with all kinds of Daos. This was something that true talent couldn't compare to.
"How did you know my identity, General Xie?" Chu Mo smiled bitterly. "I thought I disguised myself pretty well."
As he spoke, Chu Mo restored his appearance to normal. A handsome young man appeared in front of Xie Xie. Since he had already been seen through, there was no point in continuing to maintain that sage-like appearance.
"I'm much older than you. You can call me Brother Xie, and I'll call you Younger Brother." Xie Xie looked at Chu Mo.
"My name is Chu Mo," Chu Mo said.
"Younger Brother Chu."
"Brother Xie."
The two looked at each other and smiled.
Xie Xie motioned for Chu Mo to sit down and said, "Master has been working hard to find the Path to Heaven all these years. Therefore, he paid more attention to the Graylands. Therefore, the moment Younger Brother Chu stepped into the Graylands, Master sensed it. At the same time, Master also saw the Bluestone Door. Younger Brother, you may not know, but that Bluestone Door hides a huge secret. All these years, Master and I have actually been looking for clues and information about the Bluestone Door, but it's too vague. "
Chu Mo frowned slightly. "I don't know either..."
"We all understand this." Xie Xie smiled. "Before entering the Graylands, Younger Brother Chu, you probably didn't know that a place like the Graylands existed in this world."
Chu Mo nodded with an honest expression. He indeed didn't know about this. In fact, he didn't even know much about the passageway.
Xie Xie said, "Younger Brother is the second cultivator to enter the Graylands through the Bluestone Door in recent years. Coincidentally, Younger Brother is also a human. The greatest impression a place like the Graylands gives off is that it's bloody, cruel, cold, and full of schemes. In any case... there's almost no positive image. In fact, that's the case. Most living beings in the Graylands are indeed like this. But not all. "
Chu Mo nodded. Montana was different from ordinary Graylands living beings. Although he still didn't know if Xie Xie was a friend or foe, he was indeed different from ordinary Graylands living beings.
Xie Xie said, "I guess Younger Brother wants to enter the passageway?"
Chu Mo nodded. "Yes, I have friends who transcended the tribulation with me, but they didn't sever their Godhead and chose to enter the passageway. But now I know that there's a huge problem with that Godhead. That's why I want to save them. Besides... I accidentally got involved in a dispute. "
"It's about the Scarlet Snakes, right? Don't worry, Younger Brother. Leave this matter to me. Including that friend of yours, Mona, I will also protect him for you. You can choose to enter the passageway, but even if you stay in the Graylands, the Scarlet Snakes won't dare to cause trouble for you in the future, "said Xie Xie.
"Why are you so good to me, Brother Xie?" Chu Mo asked.
"You want to hear the truth? Or lies? "Xie Xie smiled.
"What's the truth? What's the lie? "Chu Mo asked.
"The lies are naturally what you can think of, Younger Brother. For example, we're all humans, and we're all arrogant to our bones. We severed our Godheads and came to a place like the Graylands. It can be considered a form of fate to meet. " Xie Xie smiled and said, "Actually, this can be considered a lie, but it's not the main reason why I'm helping you, Younger Brother."
"Yes." Chu Mo nodded, agreeing with Xie Xie's words.
"As for the truth, it has to be divided into several points." Xie Xie said, "First, the relationship between the passageway and the Graylands can never be truly peaceful. We need the passageway to destroy a large number of Graylands living beings for us. Those Graylands living beings are like weeds. There are too many of them. We have to eliminate a batch every once in a while. The passageway also needs this method to consume some of the so-called Gods that enter through the various universes connected by the passageway. "
Xie Xie looked at Chu Mo and smiled. "You might not know yet, but those Gods are controlled by the God roll. It's almost impossible to sever one's Godhead. This is because it will lead to the destruction of one's body and soul! He was completely dead and his Dao vanished! I don't think all living beings have cultivated for countless years for such an outcome. "
Chu Mo nodded silently. What he was most worried about now was whether Qi Xiaoyu and Shui Yiyi were really in the passageway. If they were, did they have something like a Godhead on them?
Also, according to Xie Xie, the supreme existence in the passageway wasn't anything good either! Through the battle with the Graylands, they were exhausting the so-called gods on the Investiture of the Gods … No matter what their purpose was, this method was definitely not honorable.
Xie Xie said, "Master deduced that Younger Brother should be entering the passageway, so helping Younger Brother is equivalent to attacking the passageway. Why wouldn't we do it? "
Chu Mo smiled wryly. Was he still unable to avoid being a chess piece? When would he be able to be the chess player? Even if he couldn't be the chess player, he had to work hard to have the ability to flip the entire chessboard!
Xie Xie continued, "That's not the main reason. Actually, whether it's Master or I, we don't particularly care about how much trouble we'll cause for the passageway or not. The main reason is also the second reason. People like Younger Brother have great luck. Master hopes that we can form a good relationship and find the true Path of Ingress through Younger Brother one day! "
"Huh?" Chu Mo looked at Xie Xie in surprise. What kind of place is the Path of Ingress?
Xie Xie looked at Chu Mo calmly and said something else that shocked Chu Mo. "According to Master's countless years of deductions, we should be inside an egg."
"..." Chu Mo was completely speechless. His gaze became somewhat dull as he looked at Xie Xie. "An egg?"
Xie Xie said seriously, "To be precise, it's like this. Master said that the entire space we're in, including the passageway, the many universes it connects to, the entire Graylands … and the other universes should be wrapped inside an egg. Of course, this egg isn't really an egg, but a description. "
