The white-haired old man glanced at Gu Yu and his companion with a strange expression.
"Why do you want to climb to the top of this cliff?"
Gu Yu wanted to say it for fun, but he suddenly felt that it was inappropriate to say it to the natives in the game. He thought for a while and spoke again.
"We heard that there are treasures at the top of this cliff, so we want to try our luck!"
"Just a man and a dog?"
Sun Qi quickly held down Gu Yu's clenched fist, signaling him not to be impulsive.
Gu Yu felt that his temper was getting worse when faced with the white-haired old man's sharp tongue.
Just when he was about to explode, the white-haired old man turned around and entered the compartment. Not long after, he came out with a sheepskin scroll.
Under the curious gaze of Gu Yu and his companion, the white-haired old man spread the sheepskin scroll on the table.
They immediately went forward to take a look.
A towering mountain peak was drawn in the middle of the parchment. However, what made Gu Yu and Ye Mo feel strange was that the mountain peak was divided into several sections, and each section had a ferocious-looking demon drawn on it.
"Did you see anything?" the white-haired old man stroked his beard and asked with a serious expression.
Gu Yu nodded, "If we go up the Cliffs of Desperation, each section is guarded by demons. It's very dangerous."
The white-haired old man shook his head, "These demons are all dead. How dangerous!"
Gu Yu was speechless.
He clenched his fist again, while Sun Qi pulled Gu Yu back tightly, hinting him to restrain his impulsive desire.
"Then can you tell me why you want to show us this scroll?" Gu Yu asked while clenching his teeth.
At the same time, he was mentally prepared, afraid that the sharp-tongued old man would say, "I'm just showing you for fun."
"I want you to see this line of words on the scroll!" the white-haired old man said as he pointed at a line of small words at the bottom right of the scroll.
Gu Yu and Sun Qi curiously moved their heads closer when they heard it.
However, Gu Yu and Sun Qi had never seen this kind of words before, so they were a little confused.
Fortunately, the artifact automatically detected and translated the words. The words began to distort in the scroll.
[I, Beiqi, swear that my people will guard the Cliffs of Desperation, eliminate the source of evil, and guard the destiny of heaven!]
"What does it mean?"
The man and the dog raised their heads in confusion.
"It's a long story," the white-haired old man looked up and sighed.
"Make it short!" Gu Yu answered decisively.
"Do you know who I am?" The white-bearded old man's expression became serious again.
You are a very bad old man! "
However, Gu Yu and his grandson only slandered him in their hearts. They did not say it out loud and shook their heads at the same time.
"I'm the descendant of the King of Beiqi!" the white-bearded old man said proudly.
After saying this, the white-bearded old man thought that Gu Yu and Sun Qi would be shocked. However, he realized that they were staring at him as if he was an idiot.
"What? You don't believe me? "
This time, Gu Yu and Sun Qi did not answer. Instead, they turned around and walked side by side towards the door.
In the end, he was just an idiot!
"Stop!" Seeing that he had failed, Whitebeard suddenly became anxious.
"What?" The two of them turned around slowly and asked expressionlessly.
"Look at what this is!" With that, the white-bearded man took out a ghostly seal from his pocket.
Gu Yu and Sun Qi looked at each other and wanted to leave again. However, both of them turned around abruptly.
[Seal of the King of Beiqi (Ancient)]: The Seal of the King of Beiqi created by the first King of Beiqi, the creator of the Land of Beiqi. It symbolizes the supreme power and glory of the Land of Beiqi (Expired)
"Hiss"
"Hiss"
Looking at the introduction of the Seal of the King of Beiqi, both of them were shocked.
"But why is it expired?" Sun Qi was puzzled.
"Maybe it's too old and it's not working anymore," Gu Yu shook his head.
"Do you believe me now?" the white-bearded old man said proudly.
Both of them looked at each other and sat down on the bed again. They looked at the white-bearded old man and waited for his story.
Seeing that they had sat down, the white-bearded old man sighed, "It's a long story!"
"Make it short!" the two of them said in unison.
The white-bearded old man rolled his eyes, "My ancestor was the creator of the Land of Beiqi. He ruled the Land of Beiqi for hundreds of thousands of years. This Cliffs of Desperation is his burial place and it's also the place that he guarded all his life."
"The demons that you saw in the picture scroll were his subordinates that guarded his tomb. They were also the first Demonic God that guarded the Land of Beiqi after his death!"
"What is this first Demonic God? Is it powerful? "Gu Yu asked curiously.
"This Cliffs of Desperation is a horn on the head of the Demonic God. Don't you think it's powerful?" the white-bearded old man seemed to be dissatisfied that Gu Yu interrupted his story.
"Hiss!" Gu Yu and Sun Qi shivered when they heard that.
The height of the Cliffs of Desperation was so high that it pierced through the sky. If this was just a horn on his head, then they couldn't imagine how huge the real body of the Demonic God was. It could even be described as covering the sky and the sun.
"So, your ancestor defeated this Demonic God and sealed him here. Then, he let your descendants guard this place?"
"How is that possible? Even ten of my ancestors couldn't defeat this Demonic God," the white-bearded old man rolled his eyes.
"I don't know the specific reason why the Demonic God was sealed. However, although the Demonic God was guarded, it wasn't stable. Evil thoughts would often escape from it. My ancestor fought with a wisp of the Demonic God's evil thoughts and used the last of his strength to kill the evil thoughts. However, his cultivation was greatly damaged and he could only survive for a hundred years before he immortalized on the peak of the Cliffs of Desperation!"
"But what does this have to do with the difficulty of climbing the peak?" Gu Yu asked curiously.
"It's not about the difficulty, but the fact that you can't climb the mountain!" this time, the white-bearded old man's expression became very serious.
"Why?"
"I'm afraid that you will be eroded by the Demonic God's evil thoughts when you climb the peak. Then, you will be possessed and become a new clone of the Demonic God."
"The demon in this picture scroll was sent by my ancestor to stop anyone from climbing the peak!"
"Is it that mysterious?"
Gu Yu and Sun Qi looked at each other. In fact, the raging fire in their hearts was burning fiercely.
"I'm warning the two of you, don't ever climb the mountain. It's a small matter if your body is possessed. If you become a clone of the Demonic God, you will bring disaster to the Land of Beiqi."
In the face of the white-bearded old man's serious warning, Gu Yu and Sun Qi looked at each other again and said righteously,
"Don't worry, for the safety of the Land of Beiqi, we will never climb the mountain!"
