"Then, Master, I would like to ask, what exactly is the Mandate of Heaven?" Ye Kong asked the most crucial question.
Actually, to Ye Kong, whether or not he could return to Earth was no longer important. This was because he had basically given up hope. But he didn't expect to hear Five Element Loose Cultivator say there was a chance. He couldn't help but feel excited.
However, the Wanderer of Five Elements couldn't give an answer. He said, "I don't know what destiny is. Even after I entered the God Realm, I still don't know what destiny is. I thought that reaching the highest level of this world, the top of the pyramid, would be the day I fulfill destiny and return to Earth … But now that I think about it, I'm afraid it's not that simple."
Ye Kong sighed, "If becoming the Divine King isn't destiny, then destiny is too far away. I suddenly have no confidence in myself."
Five Element Loose Cultivator smiled, "Then you can only die. Destiny is like a game, a cruel game. If you don't pass it, you'll die. "
"I wonder who will be able to clear it." Ye Kong sighed and asked, "Master, we can't stay here for long. You should quickly bring me to collect the ashes."
Five Element Loose Cultivator said, "Alright. They can't see us, nor can they hear our voice transmissions. Just listen to my voice and follow me. "
Although the two were invisible, Ye Kong couldn't see Five Element Loose Cultivator, but Five Element Loose Cultivator could see him. Not long after, they arrived at another stone door. That stone door was old and covered with thick moss. The gap between the stone door and the wall had become one. If it wasn't for the Five Elements Loose Cultivator, Ye Kong wouldn't have realized that it was a door.
Five Element Loose Cultivator said, "I can go through the wall, but you have to open the door. Don't worry, there are no traps or guards inside."
Ye Kong was surprised, "Why are the demons so lax in their defense? Senior, are you sure there aren't any defenses? "
Five Element Loose Cultivator smiled, "You're quite smart. You're already suspecting me? Don't worry, if I were a demon, I would've already harmed you. Open the door and you'll see. "
Hearing Five Element Loose Cultivator's words, Ye Kong smiled embarrassedly. He placed his palm on one side of the stone door and pushed it!
"Ga Ga … Boom." After the sound, the stone door cracked open like a revolving door.
When Ye Kong heard this, he quickly turned around to look. The Wanderer of Five Elements said, "It's fine. My bones have already turned into stone. The demons don't even care about it. They didn't even arrange for a guard. King Ming won't find out that my bones are missing."
Ye Kong nodded and walked in. He saw that the stone room behind the stone door was quite large.
There was a circle of eight white jade pillars in the stone room. The pillars were densely engraved with all kinds of mysterious Ancient Spirit Characters, making these jade pillars seem ancient and dignified. At the top of each pillar hung a jet-black iron chain, and the eight iron chains were chained to a young human.
"This is Five Element Loose Cultivator. Yes, it's him." Ye Kong exclaimed. He had seen the statue of Five Element Loose Cultivator before.
Five Element Loose Cultivator's divine sense said, "Don't go over. This is called the Eight God Formation. The divine sense of eight demon gods are attached to the stone pillars as guards. It's very powerful. If one of them wakes up, you'll die."
Ye Kong asked, "How do we get the remains?"
Five Element Loose Cultivator's divine sense said, "It's fine. If a corpse comes back to life or is saved by someone, the stone pillars will be alerted. But if the corpse naturally turns into dust, the stone pillars won't react. "
Then the stone door turned back. After it was closed, astral wind started to blow in the room like a tornado.
"Close your eyes."
Ye Kong closed his eyes. He could only feel that his body was involuntarily being carried by the wind, as if he was just a fallen leaf in the wind.
After a while, the wind died down. Ye Kong landed on the ground. When he opened his eyes again, he saw that Five Element Loose Cultivator was gone. There was a pile of dirt in front of him, but it didn't alert the demon god stone pillars.
Five Element Loose Cultivator's divine sense sighed, "No matter how strong a living being is, it's still a pile of dirt in the end. Not to mention me, it's the same for a powerful ancient god."
Ye Kong nodded. He had seen an ancient god's remains turn into dirt with his own eyes. He suddenly asked, "Then Master, are you dead or not? Can your last strand of divine sense be used to resurrect?"
Five Element Loose Cultivator's divine sense said, "It's useless. I'm not Five Element Loose Cultivator. I'm just a strand of his divine sense, or a thought. How can I resurrect? Also, taking out the bones has used up all my energy. I'll disappear soon. If you don't answer when you talk to me, then I'm already gone. "
Ye Kong had never spoken to the Five Elemental Loose Cultivator before. The only person he knew was the Five Elemental Loose Cultivator's Divine Sense. From Ye Kong's point of view, this was Five Element Loose Cultivator. Now that he heard that he would disappear at any time, he couldn't help but feel sad.
Five Element Loose Cultivator's divine sense smiled, "Don't be sad. In fact, I'm already very lucky compared to many earthlings. Even though I might be from the same era as you, I transmigrated hundreds of thousands of years before you. I'm hundreds of thousands of years older than you. Earthlings only have a lifespan of less than 100 years, so I didn't lose out at all. I made a huge profit. "
Ye Kong said bitterly, "Master, I lost out. But I lost out, I lost out too much. It wasn't easy for me to finally meet the Master that I've been thinking about day and night, the idol in my heart, but you haven't taught me any destructive spells, and you haven't given me any earth-shattering immortal treasures. How can you disappear like that? Not only are you letting me down, but you're also letting the audience down. "
Five Element Loose Cultivator's divine sense scolded, "You heartless kid. I've already given you the best things. That's not an ordinary godhood … Forget it, time is pressing. I'll give you another benefit. That is to tell you a secret. "
Ye Kong immediately pricked up his ears to listen.
He heard him say, "Actually, I have a son. Not many people know about this. I'm afraid that the demon gods will eliminate him! I've entrusted him to the Underworld Lord. If you go to the Underworld and find him, he'll do his best to help you. "
Ye Kong thought, "This is no benefit. If you have a daughter, then that's a benefit."
When Five Element Loose Cultivator's divine sense finished saying this, it had used up all of its energy.
Ye Kong knew that he was about to leave. Tears welled up in his eyes. Even though they had known each other for less than 15 minutes, everything he had came from this person. How could he not be grateful?
At this moment, Five Element Loose Cultivator's divine sense said, "Don't be sad … If you want to thank me, just pass the trial and bring my ashes back … I believe you … you can do it. If you can't do it, remember to leave everything you have … for the next person with the Mandate of Heaven! Everything I have was left behind by my predecessors … The Mandate of Heaven is always like this, generation after generation, until one person completes the Mandate of Heaven … "
