CHAPTER 1274: CHAPTER 1274
Key
"Open the secret room."
Ning Yue said expressionlessly.
"I can't open the door."
Shaking his head, as if feeling that he had not explained himself clearly, he continued, "My cultivation has been sealed by you, so there's no way for me to open the door to the secret chamber."
Bang!
Ning Yue's face turned cold. He raised his right foot and kicked Dan Hao, sending him flying far away.
"You have no choice."
Ning Yue's aura locked onto Dan Hao, "Open the door or die."
"Alright! I'll open the door! "Even though he was furious, Dan Hao didn't dare show it.
He took out a golden spoon and inserted it into the keyhole on the door.
Creak!
The heavy door of the secret chamber slowly opened.
Dan Hao was closer to the door than Ning Yue. The moment the door opened, he ran into the secret room.
"You want to leave?"
Ning Yue's eyes and hands were sharp. He stepped on the ground and quickly chased after them.
Bang!
With his cultivation sealed, Dan Hao's speed was greatly reduced.
It only took Ning Yue a second to catch up to him. He grabbed the horned puppet and smashed it at Dan Hao.
"Little bastard, you will die a horrible death!"
"Ah ah ah, stop smashing, I admit defeat, I surrender."
"I'll release the Dark Emperor and tell you where the Myriad Bone Cave's treasures are."
In order to make Ning Yue stop, Dan Hao would say anything.
"Where is the Dark Emperor?" Ning Yue only stopped when his arm was slightly swollen. He tossed the horned puppet aside and said, "This is your last chance."
"Why aren't you playing by the rules?"
Dan Hao was furious.
The reason why he opened the door and ran was because he wanted Ning Yue to use his vital Qi to deal with him.
The order in this place wasn't particularly stable, so they couldn't use any powerful energy.
Originally, Dan Hao wanted Ning Yue to use his powerful energy to kill him. This way, this place would crowd out Ning Yue, and he would kill Ning Yue on the spot!
In the past, many powerhouses had struggled free from the chains on their bodies and used powerful energy to escape. However, without exception, all of them had been killed.
Clearly, Dan Hao's plan had failed, because Ning Yue had simply used his physical strength to control the horned puppet to smash him.
"The Dark Emperor is in the innermost secret chamber."
Dan Hao became more obedient, he said.
"Lead the way."
This was Ning Yue's first time here, so he didn't know much about this place. He decided to let Dan Hao lead the way.
In any case, Dan Hao's cultivation was sealed, and he had the sapling in his hands. He was confident in dealing with unknown dangers.
The deeper he went, the more shocked Ning Yue became.
There were many cages on both sides of the passageway, and each cage held an expert.
Even the weakest among them was at the Supreme-Being Realm.
Moreover, the deeper he went, the higher the cultivation of the experts imprisoned in the cages.
"Save me … save me …"
Suddenly, an extremely soft voice entered Ning Yue's ears.
Hearing this, Ning Yue stopped and looked in the direction of the voice.
There was a cage in the corner. It was pitch black, and the voice came from there.
From the voice, Ning Yue could tell that the being in the cage was extremely weak, and could die at any moment.
"Who is imprisoned in that cage?"
Ning Yue said in a low voice.
"That cage?" Dan Hao was startled at first, then said, "I don't know the details. Ever since I entered the Myriad Bone Cave, he has been imprisoned in that cage."
"And until now, not many people in the Myriad Bone Cave have seen his true appearance."
Crack!
Ning Yue kicked Dan Hao's knee, breaking several of his kneecaps. He said, "Tell me the truth!"
"Ah!"
With his kneecaps broken, Dan Hao let out a hysterical howl.
Enduring the pain, Dan Hao said, "I really don't know who is imprisoned in there … but I heard the forefather mention him."
Dan Hao originally wanted to be stubborn, but when he saw Ning Yue raise his right foot, he instantly changed his mind.
"The forefather said that he is a fierce person who once killed tens of thousands of Pill Puppets with his own strength. There was no lack of peak ninth-grade Human Supremes among them. He even killed a few Earth Supremes."
"What! He killed even Earth Supremes? "Ning Yue said in shock.
An expert who could kill Earth Supremes? Didn't that mean that his cultivation had reached the Earth Supremes level?
"His cultivation is not Earth Supremes."
As if guessing Ning Yue's thoughts, Dan Hao said, "According to the rumors, he was only an early ninth-grade Human Supremes when he killed Earth Supremes Dan Chi."
"He had something on him that had a fatal restraining effect on Dan Chi. Unfortunately, that battle was too brutal. Although he escaped, his memory was damaged, and that thing was lost."
"Rescue him. The thing that he lost is a branch of the World Tree." Right at that moment, the World Tree sapling's voice sounded in Ning Yue's ears.
The sapling's words made Ning Yue's heart beat faster.
The World Tree!
This was the second time Ning Yue had heard about the World Tree after obtaining it.
"Are you sure?"
Ning Yue secretly transmitted his voice to the sapling.
"I'm sure. As long as you can help me get that branch, I can guarantee your smooth escape from the Myriad Bone Cave," the sapling said.
"What the hell?!"
Ning Yue jumped up.
"So you were the one who led me here? You knew there was news about the World Tree here? "
"I didn't lead you here. You were the one who wanted to save the Dark Emperor," the sapling said. "Also, I didn't know that this place was dangerous, nor did I know there was news about the World Tree here."
"Right, you said you can guarantee my smooth escape from the Myriad Bone Cave. What do you mean? Is there a powerful Dan Chi in the Myriad Bone Cave?" Ning Yue asked doubtfully.
"Dan Chi's clone." The sapling explained, "Although I can kill it, I can't attack it. You should know the consequences if I'm exposed."
"Tell me honestly, how powerful is your battle strength?"
Ning Yue asked after a moment of silence.
"I know what you're thinking. Anyway, if you save the person in the cage, I will guarantee your smooth escape from the Myriad Bone Cave. I will also help you unconditionally once in the future."
The World Tree said as if it could read Ning Yue's mind.
"Deal."
Ning Yue was not an unreasonable person. He agreed to the sapling.
Ever since the sapling could speak, it gave Ning Yue a terrifying feeling.
Ning Yue also had another concern. He was afraid that the sapling would suddenly attack him.
Taking a deep breath, Ning Yue said to Dan Hao, "Open that cage and let him out."
Since the sapling could save the person in the cage, it meant that it had a way to suppress it.
"I really can't do that."
Dan Hao said with a sad face, "The key to this cage is in the forefather's hands. In this vast Myriad Bone Cave, only the forefather can open this cage."
"Save me … clone … key …"
The illusory voice came from the cage again.
