Chapter 126 The World Was Not Wrong, People Were (1/2)
”Master, why would you let them go to the Gates of Hell? I almost died inside several times. It's such a dangerous place. Aren't you afraid of losing geniuses there?” Wang Bugui asked.
”Risk and return exist side by side. Geniuses should not be famous only with the name. They have to withstand tough environments. That's a genius indeed.”
”If they couldn't live through that kind of environment, how could they cope with the dark turmoil someday? Besides, I want to collect the resources from all big sects, which would be advantageous for real geniuses like you to cultivate.”
Yun Jinghong told him his real thoughts. And Wang Bugui felt this was reasonable. He grinned and said, ”Master cares about the future and I just focused on the number of geniuses instead of the quality. It's true. A discredited genius will not be reliable on the battlefield.”
”That's right. In the future, there will be some turbulent situations that are quite out of our imagination. We need to make plans earlier. And about that prediction, most people just saw the words 'immortal road'. They've missed the most important thing, the dark turmoil.”
Yun Jinghong nodded and said. Then he took the people to return to the Yuxu Palace. Even Chu He was also invited to go. Having had narrowly escaped from two hopeless situations together with them, he'd already become one of the group led by Wang Bugui.
It was night in the Pure Land of Yuxu Palace.
Wang Bugui and other people were hunkering in front of the Purple Waterfall and eating magic fruit. Lan Chuan also brought a bunch of little spiritual beasts here to listen to their stories.
”I'm surprised that there can be such a place in the Pure Land of Jade Lake. It's a pity that it gets destroyed at last.” Xue Yu'er said with her ears being flopped.
”Yum! Slurp! Thanks to the jade seal, so our king can escape the catastrophe. What has become of the jade seal?” Lan Chuan asked while biting the magic fruit.
”It's a little more broken since that time. Now there is no response from it even after aura transmission.” Wang Bugui said while he took out the jade seal and rubbed it.
”Were it not for the jade seal today, we probably died early in the Immortal Land of Jade Lake. The two heroes are still concerned about this world after their deaths!” Chu He sighed.
They nodded to agree with him. The misfortune just happened too fast. Even with the protection of the Sect Leaders of each sect, there were still dozens of disciples who lost their lives there. They were all elites from the sects, but they just died young like this.
Thanks to the good intentions of the headmaster of the Jade Lake and the descendant of Palace of the Human Emperors, people could finally escape from there. Wang Bugui used to have this kind of experience before. The first time he confronted a misfortune was in the Lake of Azaleas of Heizhugou.
The divine monkey and the Gumiho pulled together to fight with the demons, successfully keeping a branch of Mount Emei Buddhism from being massacred. But they both died there in the end, turning into two parts of the Lake of Azaleas, which were never gonna get close to each other.
And this time he met the descendant of Palace of the Human Emperors and the headmaster of the Jade Lake. They were faced with hundreds of thousands of demons, of which the weakest one was a sage already!
As peerless Greater Powers, they fought bravely to the last drop of their blood. At last, they went ahead to drive the immortal weapon at the cost of their lives, just in order to terminate all the demons. After their deaths, they even reserved the broken immortal weapon and imperishable obsessiveness for the future.
This kind of determination and courage totally made them worthy of being called heroes. However, the names of the heroes could only be heard after their deaths. And the two couples were all of bitter romance.
”All descendants of the Palace of the Human Emperors used to fight dauntlessly for the Human Race. People only know their glory, but they don't get to know the tragic history of this branch.”
While everyone was sighing with emotion, an enchanting voice came through from inside the Purple Waterfall, breaking this kind of atmosphere.
”Sister Ziyu! Oh, right. You existed with the Founder Master. You should know something about this branch. I'd really like to know the sect history of the Palace of the Human Emperors!” Wang Bugui stood up and begged her.
”Xiao Wushuang, the emperor in ancient historical times, had founded the Palace of the Human Emperors and used to slaughter dozens of nebulas of demons for the Human Race. He became an immortal on killing. But after him, no one was able to fulfill the law of the Taoism and become an immortal ever. The highest level for them was to be a Human Emperor.”
Zi Yuxiao said. Right then, a water column shot up from the Purple Waterfall and gathered into a precious mirror in the air. She continued, ”The twelve emperors in ancient historical times all died fighting on the battlefield for the Human Race, and there was no intact corpse left at all.”
As she spoke, scenes were appearing in the mirror one by one. Every descendant of the Palace of the Human Emperors was peerlessly handsome. Even looking at them far away, they could feel their matchless glories.
The scenes were evolving their developing history. Some descendants just advanced irresistibly when fighting with the enemies. Some other guys were chased by all the sects in the world, and there were also cultivators who were normal at first and finally became Human Emperors after working really hard.
When they became Human Emperors, dark turmoil occurred continuously within less than one thousand years. Some turmoil even happened earlier within about less than one hundred years, when certain Human Emperors were made from it.
The twelve Human Emperors were worthy of the name, as they all fought hard with the demons of the heavens to the last drop of their blood for the Human Race. No one was alive. Even when he was the only one that was left, he still chose to face it unyieldingly.
They all spared no effort to fight for the Human Race, but all died tragically in the end. Palace of the Human Emperors was like the sovereign descended the world and thousands of races were surrendered. But no Human Emperor died a natural death.
Because their fate was to protect the Human Race from extinction. The Human Emperor of each generation was finally the one to be mourned by people.
”I'm an emperor for the Human Race and should live up to their expectations!”
”I'm an emperor of heaven and earth. Who dares to violate our Human Race?!”
”The Emperor of The Star, Mu Xingtian is here! Whoever dares to get close to this star, I will kill!”
