After the old man finished speaking, he didn't immediately start talking. Instead, he furrowed his brows and fell into deep thought, as if he was trying to organize his words and recall some distant memories.
Hayashikawa didn't rush him. Instead, his spiritual sea slowly rose up and condensed into a small praying mat in the air. After that, Hayashikawa sat down cross-legged and waited for the old man to speak.
After a long time, the old man sighed and said with a dignified expression, "I'll start from Undermoon! I believe you should have felt that this sword doesn't belong to the Cultivation World! "
Hearing this, Hayashikawa's pupils slightly shrank, but he didn't show too much surprise.
Hayashikawa had already guessed that Undermoon Beauty was a sword. After all, this sword's power was too terrifying, even surpassing that of an Immortal Tool. However, this sword was fundamentally different from an Immortal Tool. It didn't have the tyrannical pressure of an Immortal Tool, nor did it have the power to resonate with the heavens and earth. Only by injecting spiritual power into it would it be able to erupt with an Immortal Tool's attack power, but it still didn't have the pressure that an Immortal Tool should have.
Coupled with the matter of the Southern Ming Continent's Five Great Deans, Hayashikawa was even more suspicious of the sword's origin. Now that the old man said that this sword didn't belong to the Cultivation World, it wasn't out of Hayashikawa's expectations.
"During that war, the Cultivation World was almost destroyed, and the main culprit was Undermoon Beauty. There were a total of six people, and they killed almost all the high level cultivators in the Cultivation World. Because of this, even after such a long time, the Cultivation World still can't forget about this sword's ominous name. They have been tracking down its whereabouts ever since!" The old man said.
Hayashikawa's eyes slightly narrowed, revealing a look of contemplation.
The six people the old man was talking about should be the principal of the Five Great Academies and the person he was looking for, the legendary First Highness. Beauty under the Moonlight was the sword of the First Highness, but where did these six people come from and why did they want to massacre the cultivators of the Cultivation World? Even now, Hayashikawa still couldn't figure it out.
"Where did those six people come from?" Hayashikawa asked.
"I don't know. I only know that they are not from the Cultivation World. They may have come from the Immortal World or other worlds. I can't remember!" The old man shook his head and said.
"Other realms …" Hayashikawa muttered to himself with a grave expression.
"This sword under the moon should be a supreme existence in their world. Its power is extremely terrifying. The power you are displaying now is probably not even one percent of its power in the hands of that person. Moreover, according to the records at that time, this sword was called a divine weapon by them. It is an existence that is different from the immortal weapons of our cultivation world!" The old man continued.
"Divine Artifact!" Hayashikawa's expression changed slightly.
"Yes, it's a Divine Artifact. As for the difference between a Divine Artifact and an Immortal Artifact, I'm not sure either!" The old man shook his head.
"Could it be that a Divine Artifact is a treasure above an Immortal Artifact?" Hayashikawa wondered.
"I don't know about this either. As far as I know, there is a huge difference in power between Immortal Artifacts. It's possible that this so-called Divine Artifact is just a more powerful Immortal Artifact. Of course, this is just my guess!" The old man said.
"Now that you have exposed this sword, I'm afraid you will be hunted down by the whole continent. This sword is really too fierce. Too many people have died under this sword. Whether they covet the sword's power or want revenge, this sword will be a treasure that all the major forces will fight for, especially the Nakagawa Royal Family!" The old man said worriedly.
"There is no good or evil in a sword!" Hayashikawa said softly.
"Yes, a sword is just a tool. In the hands of an evil person, it is the most fierce sword in the world. In the hands of a good person, it is the sword of mercy. But who in the world will care about this? They just want to get this sword!" The old man pursed his lips and said.
Hayashikawa nodded. A man's wealth is his own ruin. Even if this sword did not commit such a massacre, there would be countless people who wanted to get it because of its strength. This was the nature of human greed.
"What else do you know about the six people?" Hayashikawa asked after a moment of silence.
"I don't know. I only know that they disappeared later. Otherwise, there would be no ancient inheritance in the Cultivation World now!" The old man shook his head and said.
Hayashikawa took a deep breath. The old man didn't seem to know as much as he did about the six people. At least he knew that the six people had internal strife in the end. The Great Prince betrayed them and caused the other five Highnesses to join forces to kill him. In the end, the Great Prince died, and the other five Highnesses were seriously injured. They turned into the deans of the Five Great Academies and struggled at death's door. In the end, they were all killed by him.
However, Hayashikawa had no place to investigate the origins of the six people. Hayashikawa did not take away the broken fairy weapons they left in the Five Great Academies because they were really not very useful. It was better to leave them in the Five Great Academies and help Hayashikawa train new people and help the Ninja Sect train new people.
"What's the matter with the Maha Clan? Why did the Maha Continent disappear? What happened to the Three Great Original Clans? "Hayashikawa frowned and continued to ask.
"I can't remember Taiqing, but it's still related to the six people ….." The old man shook his head. He couldn't remember many things.
Hayashikawa was silent. Although he learned many secrets from the old man today, there were still many things he didn't understand. Moreover, there were more and more new questions. For example, the origins of the six people, their purpose in killing cultivators, and why they split up in the end.
Although he guessed that the Great Prince betrayed them because of the person under Beauty's Grave, Hayashikawa felt that there were still many things worth discussing about this matter.
"I have one last question. Do you know about the poison of immortals?" Hayashikawa asked softly.
This was the message that the Five Ultimate Immortal Emperor had left Hayashikawa. However, no matter how Hayashikawa thought about it, he couldn't understand the meaning behind it. What was this poison?
"Poison of immortals?" The old man frowned and didn't seem to understand what Hayashikawa meant.
"That's right. Poison of immortals!" Hayashikawa repeated.
"Poison ….. Poison ….. Poison of immortals ….." The old man's eyes gradually became dull and cloudy. Then his whole body trembled violently as if he had gone crazy.
"Poison of immortals! Immortals are poisonous! "The old man kept repeating these words as he sank into madness.
"You ….." Hayashikawa didn't expect the words' poison of immortals' to affect the old man so much. Just as he was about to calm the old man down, he found that the old man's entire body had disappeared and turned into a black fog that sank into his spiritual sea. No matter how he tried to summon him, there was no response.
