"We were deceived by the Skysword Sect." The Yao Liquid in the blood crystal was miraculous. The wounds on Chen's body healed almost instantly, but his face showed a pained expression. When he was wrapped in Wei Suo's Dark Baleful Qi, he didn't move or resist at all. There was no pained expression on his face either. It was clear that his pain didn't come from his wounds, but from memories of the past.
"Back then, your parents, two of our friends, and I were proficient in mine observation techniques. We left the Sky Dome Realm to hunt a few demon beasts and see if there were any ore veins along the way. But at that time, we just so happened to encounter a few cultivators from the Heavenly Sword Sect. They saw that we were proficient in mine observation techniques and said that they wanted to hire us to help them explore a spirit stone mine. The power of the Heavenly Sword Sect is monstrous. The cultivation bases of the cultivators we encountered were all far above ours. Additionally, they also gave us an extremely generous reward. Thus, we dared not disobey them. "
"However, when we followed them to the location of the Spirit Stone Vein, we discovered that what they wanted us to explore was not an ordinary Spirit Stone Vein, but a Ferocious Demonic Vein! Moreover, many cultivators like us have already gathered in that place. They simply want to use human lives to explore that ominous vein! "
Wei Suo quietly listened and asked, "What is a Demon Mark Ominous Vein?"
"Vicious demonic veins are a unique landform. In several mountain ranges or wastelands, there are dozens of vertical fissures in the ground. From above, they look like the fissures left behind by the claws of a demon king. Some of the fissures are close to underground fire veins and emit a blood-red light. Almost all the ancient books about the Pulse Exploration Technique recorded that under this kind of landform, there was a great possibility that there were spirit stone veins, and at the same time, other mineral veins. But at the same time, the ancient books also recorded that this kind of landform had been formed when the ancient world collapsed. It was extremely old. In this kind of landform, it was very likely that many abyssal monsters would gather, and even give birth to terrifying monsters. "Therefore, this kind of place is an extremely dangerous place for all prospectors. Basically, any cultivator who knows a little about prospecting would be scared out of their wits upon seeing this kind of terrain. They would quickly flee because, according to the records, even the periphery of this kind of terrain is extremely dangerous. Many prospectors have died there. Moreover, there are many strange things that ordinary cultivators cannot understand." A trace of fear unconsciously appeared in the eyes of the cultivator surnamed Chen.
"They clearly know that there are vicious demonic veins there, so they're forcing you to explore them. If you disobey, will you be killed? "Weisuo took a deep breath and slowly asked.
"That's right. When we arrived at the landform, it was night. When we saw the blood-red light soaring into the sky, we immediately recognized the vicious demonic veins. When we realized that something was wrong, the Heavenly Sword Sect cultivators completely changed their attitude. If we didn't enter the vicious demonic veins to explore, they would immediately kill us. "Chen's body trembled as he spoke through gritted teeth.
Weisuo didn't say anything and slowly looked up at the sky. His expression was calm, but his hands were imperceptibly trembling.
In the sky above, the moon was bright and clear, and the night was like water.
He could sense the terror and helplessness his parents and the others felt when they arrived at the vicious demonic veins and saw the blood-red light soaring into the sky.
Now that he was at the fourth layer of the Jin Dan Realm and possessed the Heaven Suppressing Dharma Idol, even Lin Taixu and so many other ancient cultivators were no match for him. However, he couldn't change the past. No matter how powerful his divine abilities were, he couldn't travel through time and change the past. He couldn't appear in front of his parents and kill all of the cultivators from the Heavenly Sword Sect to save his parents.
Now, he had such a remarkable ability, but his parents were no longer around.
After a moment of silence, Weisuo lowered his head and looked at the cultivator surnamed Chen. "What happened afterwards?"
"When we were tricked by the Heavenly Sword Sect cultivators, some cultivators had already been driven into the vicious veins to explore. They've already confirmed the existence of several spirit stone veins. " The cultivator surnamed Chen looked at Wei Suo and said, "However, the people of the Heavenly Sword Sect, in addition to having some cultivators continue to explore these spirit stone veins, they had us, who were later recruited through various means, explore several spirit veins that were clearly ancient spirit qi. However, they were clearly completely broken and dried up. We need to figure out the direction of every exhausted spirit qi vein, and figure out where these spirit qi veins lead to. "
"Dried up spirit veins? Could it be that the Heavenly Sword Sect wanted to find those broken spirit veins like the ones in the Hai Xian Sect? No! They wanted to find out the direction of these spirit veins … It's also possible that they wanted to find the ruins of some ancient sect! In ancient times, spirit veins were usually occupied by the northern sects. Especially when several spirit veins were gathered together, it would be difficult for them not to be occupied by the sects. Large spirit veins were able to give birth to powerful sects in ancient times. That's right, they might want to directly enter the ruins of the ancient sect through these dried up spirit veins! " After hearing the cultivator surnamed Chen's words, the Old Man In Green Clothes became more and more excited and couldn't help but shout.
"Later on, over a hundred of us who were somewhat proficient in the art of meridian exploration were driven into the vicious devil veins to explore the direction of these dried up spirit veins. Because they were afraid that the cultivators they were familiar with would cause some unforeseen events, the cultivators of the Heavenly Sword Sect even separated me, your parents, and my two other good friends. We were placed in groups of five or six with other cultivators we didn't know and entered the ominous vein to investigate. " At this time, the cultivator surnamed Chen continued, "When we saw the vicious devil veins, we felt that the odds were against us. We all excitedly waited for their last words. If someone could survive, and the others had unfinished business, the survivors would help them complete it if they could. The last words your parents left behind were that if they died, we were not to tell you of this matter no matter what. "
Weisuo's expression was heavy but his hands trembled slightly. It was clear that he could not calm down.
At this time, other than the dazed Li Xieyi who did not understand the situation and was still muttering the sutra, everyone else knew that his parents had left behind these last words because they did not want Weisuo to know that they had died because of the Heavenly Sword Sect. They were afraid that if Weisuo learned of this, he would seek revenge against the Heavenly Sword Sect and seek his own death. This was because, to ordinary cultivators, a sect like the Heavenly Sword Sect was simply too high and mighty. It was like a giant mountain that could not be shaken.
"While we were separated, we all had Lotus Heart Ropes and could sense the life and death of our friends. The vicious devil veins were extremely strange. Later on, not long after I and the other cultivators entered, there was a great tremor in the earth veins to the north. An area of a hundred li collapsed. The Lotus Heart Ropes on my hand all burned to ashes. Other than me, your parents and two other friends all died. Later, a few of us cultivators encountered an unknown devil in a dried up spirit vein and were chased by that devil. The rest of the cultivators were all killed. Only I and another cultivator were lucky enough to escape into a crack in the ground. The last cultivator was proficient in the Meridian Tracing Technique. I relied on that cultivator to follow him along a Dark Iron Ore Vein and escaped from the area of the Ominous Devil Vein. Luckily, we survived. "
"Later on, Fellow Daoist Liao and I thought we were completely safe. We didn't expect that the cultivators of the Heavenly Sword Sect had secretly placed a restriction on us. After we escaped more than two thousand li from the vicious devil veins, a cultivator of the Heavenly Sword Sect caught up to us. Originally, Fellow Daoist Liao and I were definitely going to die in the pursuit of that Heavenly Sword Sect cultivator. However, perhaps it was because we weren't fated to die, or perhaps that Heavenly Sword Sect cultivator was just too unlucky, but he just so happened to attract a powerful demon beast. Instead, that Heavenly Sword Sect cultivator fought with the demon beast, and both sides sustained heavy injuries. As a result, he was severely wounded by the demon beast and fell into our hands. "After interrogating the cultivator of the Heavenly Sword Sect, Fellow Daoist Liao and I learned that we had been struck by the Heavenly Sword Sect's Heavenly Sword Mark. This kind of restriction takes several years to completely dissipate. Apart from the cultivators of the Heavenly Sword Sect, no one can undo it. Furthermore, as long as one is within five thousand li of a cultivator of the Heavenly Sword Sect, one will be able to sense it. Thus, Fellow Daoist Liao and I didn't dare to stay in the vicinity and fled all the way to the northwest of the Profound Sky Continent. During those years, we stayed in the wilderness outside the vault of heaven and didn't dare to enter the city. Later on, Fellow Daoist Liao also fell to the demon beast in the wilderness. " The cultivator with the surname Chen took a deep breath and looked at Weisuo. "After that, there wasn't any news about the ominous demon vein at all. It's very likely that I'm the only one left among the group of mine explorers that the Heavenly Sword Sect used various methods to lure to that place."
After a pause, the cultivator with the surname Chen looked at Weisuo and said, "When I returned to Lingyue City that time, I wanted to inquire about you. Because you were still young when we left Lingyue City, I thought that you might not still be alive. Even if you were alive, you might not still be in Lingyue City. However, I didn't expect that before I could find any news about you, you would bump into me and recognize me not long after I arrived at Lingyue City. I was afraid that you would desperately pursue the matter of that day and bring about a fatal disaster. Thus, I simply left so that no one would know about this matter. However, I didn't expect that you would have such remarkable abilities now. "
"Uncle Chen, I had a great misunderstanding about you before. Please accept my bow. "Hearing this, Weisuo bowed to the cultivator with the surname Chen and addressed him as an elder.
The cultivator with the surname Chen's body swayed slightly. After a long time, he looked at Weisuo with a complicated expression and said, "You look very similar to your father … If your parents knew about your remarkable abilities now, they would definitely be extremely proud."
"Uncle Chen, do you know the names of the cultivators from the Heavenly Sword Sect who killed my parents?" Weisuo looked at the cultivator with the surname Chen and asked.
"I only remember one of them." The cultivator with the surname Chen hesitated for a moment and said, "Nephew, if you really treat me as an elder, then please listen to me for the sake of my close relationship with your parents. The Heavenly Sword Sect's influence is too great. Moreover, if I'm not mistaken, the Heavenly Sword Sect has an old antique by the name of Unsurpassed In Royal Beauty. She has already successfully broken through to the Spirit Profound Realm. The Great And Mighty. Given the current situation, you can't be impulsive. Don't go against them. "
"The Heavenly Sword Sect also has The Great And Mighty?" Weisuo's eyes flashed and said, "Uncle Chen, please don't worry. If I want revenge, I will naturally think of a foolproof method. If I'm not confident, I won't go against the Heavenly Sword Sect."
"That's good." The cultivator with the surname Chen heaved a sigh of relief and said, "I only remember that one of the cultivators from the Heavenly Sword Sect was called Wan Jiansan."
Weisuo nodded and continued to ask, "Where is the ominous devil vein?"
"The ominous devil vein is extremely far from the sky. It's in the wilderness between the Profound Sky Continent and the Cloud Spirit Continent. There's an ancient river nearby. That ancient river is connected to an ancient lake. That lake is also recorded in some ancient records. It's called the Heavenly Mother Lake. "
"Heavenly Mother Lake?" Hearing this, the Old Man In Green Clothes exclaimed again.
"Hmm?" Weisuo's eyebrows couldn't help but twitch. The Heavenly Mother Lake that the cultivator with the surname Chen mentioned between the Profound Sky Continent and the Cloud Spirit Continent made him immediately recall that the Heavenly Mother Lake was also recorded in the Ancestral Hall's jade talisman he obtained from the Jin Estate. According to the jade talisman, the Heavenly Mother Lake was located ten thousand kilometers to the east of the Northern Sea Ruins!
