Chapter 878 The truth is revealed, Mo Han's destiny
Facing the old drunkard's almost crazy gaze, Gu Xiu pursed his lips and said nothing in the end. He just asked:
"Senior, did you invite me here just to tell me this?"
"You don't believe what I say?" asked the old drunkard.
Gu Xiu shook his head. "Indeed, I still have some concerns. What you are talking about is the future, which is tens or even millions of years away. For me, it might be better to focus on the present."
Be it a frog in a well or a scam to ascend to heaven.
These things are indeed big things, but just like what the Supreme Bi Luo said in the Falling Rain Valley, some things are actually useless even if you know them in advance.
When practicing cultivation, just move forward. You can't stop moving forward just because you suspect there will be setbacks ahead, or think about the way back before you even start moving forward.
It's not bad to be far-sighted, but there's no need to worry too much.
What's more...
The old drunkard's words were all what he saw from Xu Mozi, and most of them were speculations. It was difficult to determine whether they were true or false when his strength was not enough.
In response to Gu Xiu's words, the old drunkard just sighed and shook his head:
"If such a crisis really would only happen tens or even millions of years from now, I, Mo Hanlou, would naturally not worry about it. But the problem is that those outside the cage don't want us Haoyu to waste too much time, so they will choose to bring down immortal punishment and accelerate the destruction of Haoyu's masters."
"Immortal Punishment?" Gu Xiu raised an eyebrow, then thought of the Immortal Burial Valley where he was, and instantly associated it with the establishment of the Immortal Burial Valley:
"The War of the Ancients?"
The origin of the Immortal Burial Valley is very clear. It has always been said that this place is a forbidden area caused by the war between immortals and gods in ancient times.
Now that the old drunkard said this, Gu Xiu immediately connected it to this point.
Sure enough, the old drunkard nodded:
"Yes."
"The War of the Ancients."
"Most people have heard of the Ancient War. Many people can tell you about it if asked. It was a war between immortals. That war destroyed everything and countless immortals perished."
"But what exactly was that war about? Why did it start? Who were the two sides in the battle? To this day, no records have appeared, and no one can clearly explain what happened."
"We at Mohan Tower have conducted a detailed investigation into the relevant matters. Although there are few clues, through investigation, the finger of blame eventually points to the Three Yuans Sea of Sin. That war was related to the Three Yuans Sea of Sin. The immortals who fell were probably not immortals at all, but the top masters of the Haoyu world."
"It's just that Haoyu lost that battle."
"All the top masters of Haoyu's era died out. From that time on, Haoyu's top masters began to become what we now call the Supreme and the Immortal. Although there were obviously stronger masters above them, no one has ever set foot there again."
"This is considered a punishment from the immortals."
Gu Xiu's eyelids twitched. If this was true, then everything could be connected. He even thought of the Master and the mysterious man in black robe. They seemed to be planning around the Three Realms of Sinners, and the ones they were fighting against were all based on the Three Realms of Sinners.
The only difference is that the old drunkard obviously doesn't know about the confrontation between the Master and the man in black robe.
"The Sanyuan Sin Sea is about to be born, so you asked me to come here and tell me all this?" Gu Xiu asked.
"Yes." The old drunkard nodded:
"Xu Mozi and three hundred other masters have been investigating the Haoyu Cage and the Three Seas of Sin. They eventually discovered the Immortal Burial Valley, and within it, they found clues to Ziweiyuan, one of the Three Seas of Sin. To prevent future trouble, he used some means to open a breach in the Ziweiyuan. He then led three hundred other masters into the Ziweiyuan. He has not returned to date, and his fate is unknown."
"But Ziweiyuan is originally based on curses. When Mo Hanlou attacked Ziweiyuan, he was also infected by the curse power within Ziweiyuan. In order to prevent Ziweiyuan from appearing prematurely, Xu Mozi simply used Mo Hanlou to block the entrance to the Burial Valley, thus blocking Ziweiyuan."
"But the curse still exists, and its greatest effect is that all of us in Mohan Tower will be guarding this tower for eternity, unable to leave."
"Can……"
"Qingxuan, where you once lived, is the best proof of this. The world has changed over time, and people's hearts are fickle. Mohan Tower might have been united at first, but gradually some people became dissatisfied with this, and that's why Baiyu Tower appeared."
"They left Mohan Tower and wanted to get rid of the curse."
"I agreed, but this is the curse of Ziweiyuan after all, and it can't be solved by just withdrawing. We soon discovered that even if the people in Baiyulou left Mohanlou, once they died, their remaining souls and spirits would become nutrients, pouring into Mohanlou, becoming a part of Mohanlou and also a part of the Burial Valley."
"and."
"Life after life, there is no liberation."
"So, what is the bet between you and Baiyulou...?" Gu Xiu asked the question that he had been curious about before.
"No one can remove their curse. The only way is to completely destroy the entire Mohan Tower. Only then will they have a chance."
"But no matter how powerful the people of Baiyulou are, here, above the Burial Immortal Valley, although Mohanlou and the Burial Immortal Valley are constantly competing with each other, they are also in a kind of symbiotic balance. So no matter how hard they try, they cannot destroy Mohanlou unless I, the last remaining person in Mohanlou, don't want them to."
"I don't want to see them fall into utter despair and madness, so I made a promise with them: if they can break through the gate of my Mo Han Tower, I will abandon my mission and commit suicide here, taking the Mo Han Tower with me."
Hear this.
Everything is finally clear.
No one could have imagined that Baiyu Tower and Mohan Tower, two forces with the same origin, would have such a story. No one could have imagined that Xu Mozi, who was once famous throughout the universe and the object of admiration of countless talisman masters, did not go to the fairyland as rumored by the outside world, but instead entered the Immortal Burial Valley and never returned.
for sure.
Once what happened today is spread to the outside world, it will cause a huge uproar, and it is unknown how many cultivators' hearts will be completely shattered.
The ascension you worked so hard for is a scam.
Immortality is ultimately just a delusion.
even……
After the Three Realms of Sin came into being, it was possible that the supreme and immortal realms of this world would be completely wiped out, and even the realm of refining emptiness might not be able to continue to exist.
of course.
The premise is that the information left by the old drunkard or...Xu Mozi is true.
After sorting out all the connections, Gu Xiu finally asked the last question:
"What is the so-called destiny man?"
"Heavenly Book of Talismans." The old drunkard replied:
"Before Xu Mozi led the three hundred masters into the Burial Immortal Valley, he anticipated that he might never return, so he left a message."
“If someone obtains the Heavenly Book Talisman in the future, that person will be the destined person of my Mo Han Tower.”
"And once the holder of the Heavenly Book Talisman begins to cultivate and achieves success, they will be favored by the Dao Yun of Heaven and Earth. I noticed the Ten Thousand Yuns paying homage to them, so I guessed that the holder of the Heavenly Book Talisman must have appeared. I ventured all the way to the Eastern Wasteland just to confirm it."
"To be honest, when I first met you, I was a little skeptical. After all, the Heavenly Book of Talismans is such a rare book that even Xu Mozi took thousands of years to master it. Yet, you have mastered it at such a young age, even attracting Wan Yun to worship you."
"I can only say that you are worthy of being the destined person of my Mohan Tower."
Gu Xiu didn't respond to this. He knew his own business. The content of the Heavenly Book of Talismans was extremely obscure. He only relied on the wordless ancient book. In fact, after the Heavenly Book of Talismans was written down and turned into a talisman book, Gu Xiu still didn't make much progress in it.
At this moment, he simply went straight to the point: "Since Senior Xu Mozi anticipated my arrival and now urgently summons me, I wonder what he needs me to do?"
"I want you to help me guard Mo Han Tower for three months." The old drunkard replied.
Gu Xiu frowned: "Guarding Mohan Tower?"
"Yes." The old drunkard turned and looked into the distance. Gu Xiu followed his gaze and found that he was looking at the departing Baiyulou fleet. The mighty fleet looked extremely blurry at the moment. It seemed that they were about to completely leave the Burial Valley.
"I know you have doubts about what I said before. In fact, don't I have these doubts myself?"
"Let's not talk about anything else. Just the ascension scam alone is something I can never be sure of."
"so."
"I intend to spend three months striving to ascend to immortality, so I can see with my own eyes the secret that Xu Mozi saw back then."
Ascension in March!
If someone else said this, they would probably be laughed at immediately. After all, ascending to heaven is a realm that countless powerful people can hardly reach even in their dreams. How could anyone be sure that they can ascend to heaven, or even be sure that they can ascend to heaven in three months?
Can……
The person who said this was the old drunkard, the last remaining strongest person in Mo Han Tower.
"Xu Mozi mentioned the Destined One in his message, but he didn't explain what would happen after the Destined One arrived. I don't know for sure myself. If I find you, how can my Mo Han Tower be saved? But since you're here, I want to see what the answer is to the question that has troubled me my whole life."
"Ascending to immortality is my only long-cherished wish. In fact, I could have attempted this as early as two thousand years ago, but due to my responsibilities at Mohan Tower, I couldn't. Now that you're here, I hope you can help me guard this place for three months."
"After three months, you're free to leave, no matter what the outcome."
"Of course, I won't let you work in vain."
But as the old drunkard spoke, he pinched the magic formula in his hand, and saw that in the main hall of Mo Han Tower, lines of ink gathered together and unexpectedly gathered into a ball of ink-colored flame in front of Gu Xiu, with thousands of Dao rhymes burning on it.
Seeing this ball of fire, Gu Xiu couldn't help but twitch his eyelids slightly, and had some guesses in his mind:
"This is……"
"Mohan Fu Fire." The old drunkard gave an accurate answer:
"You seem to have a special power that hides your cultivation, but I can vaguely sense that your sea of consciousness is incomplete, and your soul lamp is not fully lit. In this case, I think the most important thing for you now is to light the soul lamp."
"This Mo Han Talisman Fire was refined from the Dao rhyme origin of my Mo Han Tower. Not only does it carry the power of the Dao rhyme of heaven and earth, it also has the ability to melt all Dao rhymes. The refining method is also the unique and unparalleled skill of my Mo Han Tower."
"The only pity is that this Mohan Talisman Fire lacks the blessing of Baiyu Tower's unique refining technique, so it cannot be considered completely perfect."
"But I think this thing should be able to help you light a soul lamp."
These words.
Even Gu Xiu couldn't help but feel a little surprised.
He had indeed heard of the Mo Han Talisman Fire. This thing required not only an affinity for talismans, but also control over the talismans, constant attempts, and a long time to refine. So even though Gu Xiu possessed such a treasure as the Heavenly Book Talisman, he had never thought of using the Mo Han Talisman Fire to light the Soul Lamp.
What a luxury!
But now, the old drunkard took it out like this. Although according to him, this talisman fire was not perfect, it was actually enough.
but……
Just when Gu Xiu was surprised that the old drunkard was so generous that he even took out the Mo Han Talisman Fire.
Another roar was heard at this moment.
Very similar to the previous thunder.
But the difference is...
After the thunder fell, it actually went straight towards the direction of Baiyu Tower. Although the distance was far, Gu Xiu still saw it.
At the moment the lightning fell, the fleet of Baiyu Tower.
Suddenly a raging fire broke out!
In this sea of fire, Gu Xiu vaguely saw a series of ghosts, which were emitting a cold light and appeared on the retreat route of the Baiyulou fleet.
Worse.
At the same time as the thunder fell, the Immortal Burial Valley, which had always been suppressed by Mo Hanlou, suddenly launched one huge attack after another.
Hang high.
Immediately afterwards, it smashed heavily towards Mo Hanlou!
