Chapter 1529: Chapter 1318 Is the Human Emperor Dead or Alive_2
“Yes,” Xu Bai nodded, “This place is indeed special, and I dare not trespass recklessly.”
“So honest, I thought you were one of the scholars, always so decorous,” the middle-aged man said with a teasing smile.
“Sometimes, I indeed act disrespectfully,” Xu Bai pondered and said, “I was born in a rather splendid place and was influenced by various principles from a young age, but sometimes I still make decisions that go against my elders.”
Upon hearing this, the middle-aged man asked curiously, “Are you a good person?”
Upon hearing this, Xu Bai pondered and said, “Hard to say.”
“What’s the matter?” the man asked casually as he came to the stove after washing vegetables.
At that moment, he opened the lid of the pot, and the aroma of rice wafted out.
Xu Bai followed and said, “I have killed quite a few people; to those people, I am definitely not a good person.”
“Then why did you kill?” the middle-aged man asked.
“Why?” Xu Bai thought for a moment and said, “I suppose I thought it was necessary.”
“You thought, or everyone thought?” the middle-aged man asked.
“I thought,” Xu Bai said.
“What if you thought you shouldn’t kill?”
“Then I wouldn’t kill.”
“But what if it led to a great disaster afterward?”
“That has little to do with me; I merely didn’t kill him but didn’t kill others either.”
“But because of your kindness, others ended up dead.”
“If his evil is blamed on me, is his goodness also credited to me?”
Upon hearing this, the middle-aged man glanced at Xu Bai and laughed,
“You really aren’t worried about karma.”
“Karma is mysterious, I do not grasp its workings, but I can maintain my core integrity,” Xu Bai replied.
At that moment, the middle-aged man served two bowls and cooked two more dishes, “Let’s eat together.”
Xu Bai did not refuse.
They sat on the yard’s chairs and ate the simple meal together.
“How does it taste?” the middle-aged man asked.
“It’s been a long time, it tastes very delicious,” Xu Bai honestly said.
Upon hearing this, the middle-aged man laughed and said, “For a moment, I can’t tell if that’s flattery or honesty.”
“As long as you like to hear it,” Xu Bai said with a gentle smile.
“Coming here, do you want anything?” the middle-aged man asked.
“I want to ask some questions,” Xu Bai said while eating his white rice.
The middle-aged man picked up some vegetables casually and said, “Go ahead.”
“Do you know about the Ancestral Dragon’s Heart?” Xu Bai asked.
“Hmm, I know, has the Ancestral Dragon’s Heart appeared? Does the Ancestral Dragon want to revive, or has it done something?” the middle-aged man continued to eat simply.
“It seems to have done something, become much weaker,” Xu Bai looked at him and said.
“Has the great era begun?” the middle-aged man asked.
“Yes,” Xu Bai nodded.
Upon hearing this, the middle-aged man laughed and said, “Impressive, it seems a person crucial to the dragon race has emerged, prompting the Ancestral Dragon to take action personally. Did he fail?”
“He failed, someone detonated the Heavenly Extreme Silent Pearl and killed a dragon race powerhouse,” Xu Bai honestly said.
Upon hearing this, the middle-aged man who was eating paused and asked, “What did you say? What was detonated?”
“The Heavenly Extreme Dream Pearl,” Xu Bai spoke again.
The middle-aged man put down his bowl and said, “You all really value the dragon race, so you are ready to perish together?”
“But it was sealed back,” Xu Bai said.
Hearing this, the middle-aged man also put down his chopsticks, “Are you guys strong or weak?”
“To say you are strong; you have to use the Heavenly Fate Misfortune Pearl against the dragon race, and to say you are weak; you managed to seal it even after using the Heavenly Fate Misfortune Pearl.”
“We are probably still weak,” Xu Bai answered.
“So you want a method to suppress the dragon race?” the middle-aged man asked.
“It should be the Ancestral Dragon’s Heart,” Xu Bai considered and then said:
“The dragon race has hidden in the Ancient Lands and can’t return for now.”
“The Ancestral Dragon’s Heart, ah, it depends on how you plan to suppress it,” the middle-aged man pondered and said, “Do you want to simply seal the state of the Ancestral Dragon’s Heart, or seal the Ancestral Dragon to prevent him from taking the opportunity to revive.”
“What do you think the Ancestral Dragon is like?” Xu Bai did not directly answer the question.
He wanted to know what the Ancestral Dragon’s stance was.
The middle-aged man laughed and said, “Thinking for one’s race, pursuing the ultimate, very impressive, and quite good.”
“However, if you cannot convince him, you will be devoured by him.”
“He does not regard the weak.”
Xu Bai nodded and asked, “Then, may I have all the suppression techniques?”
“Yes, let me talk about the simplest seal,” the middle-aged man continued, picking up his meal and eating:
“A simple seal is to use the technique of suppressing the dragon race, and then combine it with the Blood Prohibition Stone. If you have the cultivation of a Heavenly Immortal, it’s almost enough.”
“Especially since the Ancestral Dragon’s Heart is still weak.”
“The technique to suppress the dragon race?” Xu Bai asked, somewhat puzzled.
“It’s in the Heavenly Book of Inheritance,” said the middle-aged man.
“What is the Heavenly Book of Inheritance?” Xu Bai had heard of it but did not know what it specifically was.
“It’s the inheritance left by the dragon race, containing five types of spells, mine and those of the dragon race,” the middle-aged man continued while eating vegetables: “But I can’t teach you, you have to get it yourself.”
“This thing isn’t easy to find, so sealing the Ancestral Dragon’s Heart is still quite difficult.”
Xu Bai nodded, not finding it inappropriate, “What about a deeper suppression?”
“Have you heard of Heaven Lock?” the middle-aged man asked.
“I have,” Xu Bai nodded.
“Find someone who can perform Heaven Lock. After completing the initial suppression, start Heaven Lock to lock the will of the Ancestral Dragon. It will be ages before it can revive, it won’t even be able to perceive far distances.”
“The things it covets, it will no longer sense, which is more painful than killing him,” the middle-aged man laughed, “Unfortunately, the person capable of Heaven Lock, you might not be able to find.”
“He has been sealed. Since the Ancestral Dragon has not yet revived, he is definitely still in the seal.”
“Can’t other people learn this technique?” Xu Bai asked curiously.
The middle-aged man looked at him and said, “Yes, if someone learns it and uses it, then they will…”
Be the enemy of the whole world.
“Even if there really is another person who knows it, you’d better think it carefully,” he added.
Xu Bai fell silent.
He ate his meal peacefully.
After finishing the meal, the middle-aged man looked at the sky and said, “It’s about time, you should go back. Take this.”
Saying so, the middle-aged man handed over a stone.
“Hold on to it, give it sufficient strength, and perhaps we can still have another meal,” the middle-aged man said with a smile.
Taking the item, Xu Bai curiously asked, “Isn’t this supposed to be given to the Great Earth Sovereigns?”
“No need, the true Great Earth Sovereigns come into their own, not just by chance,” the middle-aged man said with a laugh.
Afterward, everything around them disappeared.
When Xu Bai came to his senses, he found himself at the base of the Immortal Gazing Platform.”
“Are you out?” the old smoke man asked.
He had already prepared to listen to the story while smoking.
Xu Bai was not stingy and recounted the whole process.
However, he only talked about what he encountered and how he solved it.
The specific details were not disclosed.
“What happened in the end?” the old smoke man asked softly.
“In the end, I met a middle-aged senior. I had a meal with him, asked some questions, and finally, he told me it was about time, and then I appeared here,” Xu Bai replied.
“Human Emperor?” the old smoke man immediately asked.
Xu Bai shook his head, “I never asked.”
The old smoke man nodded, thought for a moment, and then asked, “Is he alive or dead?”
This question also troubled Xu Bai, but he still shook his head, “I did not ask that either.”
“You don’t ask this, you don’t ask that, what did you go in there for?” the old smoke man said with dissatisfaction, “What if the person wanted to talk, just waiting for you to ask? Knowing a lot of things but no one asking, don’t you think it’s lonely?”
“Was the senior a strong member of the Immortal Clan?” Xu Bai smiled and asked, “What was the senior called before?”
“Don’t ask what you shouldn’t ask,” the old smoke man said as he took a puff of smoke.
“Look, if I don’t ask, the senior says I don’t ask anything, but when I do ask, it’s ‘don’t ask what you shouldn’t ask.’ ” Xu Bai said with a gentle smile.
Old smoke man: “….”
This person is disagreeable, but that little girl was more likable.
