Luo Tian nodded and said, “Thank you for the reminder, Second Elder. I’ll be careful. But don’t let me run into him because I won’t let him have an easy time.”
Encountering a boss?
What else needs to be said?
One word: Fight!
Three words: Fuck him up!
It’s just that simple.
The word ‘fear’ didn’t exist in Luo Tian’s vocabulary.
Niu Haishan merely smiled before turning to look at the resentful spirits behind him.
“Second Elder, just say it.”
“That’s right. If you don’t say it now, there probably won’t be another chance.”
“I agree. Our lives were given back to us by Benefactor Luo. Is there anything in this world more important than a life-saving benefactor?”
The resentful spirits all knew what Niu Haishan was hesitant about.
They also knew that Niu Haishan was the only one in the world who knew the location of the Spectral Gems vein. He was the only one who knew this secret, one that he had guarded for over thirteen thousand years. If he didn’t reveal it now, there probably wouldn’t be another chance.
Niu Haishan smiled faintly, looking at the resentful spirits, and said, “Why are you all in such a hurry? Did I say I wouldn’t tell him?”
Luo Tian remained calm as he said, “Second Elder, the responsibility of this secret might be too great. I’m afraid I can’t bear it.”
One should always maintain a humble attitude.
Of course, Luo Tian’s inner thoughts were actually treacherous in nature.
He desperately needed the location of the Spectral Gems vein. He wished he could get a large pile of Spectral Gems right away because he needed to forge a weapon that could increase the instant kill chance of God Flame to one hundred percent.
If there was anything in this world that could do that, then it would be those Spectral Gems!
Niu Haishan looked at Luo Tian’s humble expression and immediately said, “Brother Luo, don’t say that. Your potential is the strongest I’ve ever seen, and your cultivation speed is also the strongest I’ve ever seen. Even those disciples with super talents can’t compare. Even though I don’t know how you cultivate and make breakthroughs, I’m very clear that you’re a righteous person with a kind heart. Otherwise, you wouldn’t have paid attention to us resentful spirits who have been dead for over thirteen thousand years.”
“In these thirteen thousand years, you’re the only person who has been willing to help us. I thank you once more.”
As he said that, Niu Haishan bowed in thanks again. Then, he furrowed his brow, and his expression became serious. He stopped speaking and instead used his spiritual sense to communicate.
He was being very cautious.
He couldn’t let anyone know this secret, not even his personal disciples behind him. Even if they were resentful spirits, they couldn’t know. In this world, other than himself, there was only one other person he could tell.
And that was Luo Tian.
“Luo Tian, the Spectral Gems are sacred artifacts of the devil sects. One Spectral Gem can allow a devil sect expert to raise their cultivation by one small realm. Moreover, if they discover a large number of Spectral Gems, they can forge a world-destroying dark weapon. With just that weapon, they could turn the Ancient World into a dark world controlled by the devil sects. So, you must remember never to reveal the secret of the Spectral Gems vein to anyone. It doesn’t matter who it is, not even the people closest to you. And absolutely do not tell any experts at the Honorable Emperor realm. They are all incredibly treacherous. I’ve seen through everything. Otherwise, our Boundless Sect wouldn’t have been destroyed by that sorcerer,” Niu Haishan’s tone was extremely serious.
When it was known that he learned of the secret of the Spectral Gems vein location, not only did the devil sects send people over, but even the orthodox sects sent people over.
Just like the devil sects, those powerful Honorable Emperor realm experts demanded that he hand over the location of the Spectral Gems vein.
Niu Haishan refused to say a word.
Then, those so-called righteous people, those Honorable Emperor realm experts from the Central Continent, just stood in the air and watched. They watched how the innocent disciples of the Boundless Sect were killed one by one and then had their souls ripped out. They even had a disdainful expression and a contemptuous sneer on their faces while this was happening. 𝘙ÀꞐȮ𝔟Еṡ
Therefore, Niu Haishan hated those powerhouses who acted all high and mighty. He thought that they were worse than pigs and dogs!
Luo Tian nodded and said, “Second Elder, rest assured, I will do everything in my power to protect this secret and will absolutely not let the devil sects or the orthodox sects obtain it. I will absolutely not let them forge a dark weapon.”
Luo Tian’s heart trembled upon thinking of those dark weapons.
“Damn it!”
“Can it actually destroy the world? Is it like the ancient weapons in One Piece?” (Kodai Heiki)
“Holy crap!”
“If there’s a chance… heh heh …”
If we’re talking about danger, Luo Tian was more dangerous than the devil sects and the orthodox sects combined. If the Spectral Gems vein fell into his hands, then perhaps a dark weapon would be forged sooner or later. It might not destroy the world, but those super-powerful experts in the Honorable Emperor realm would be the ones who would suffer.
“Hahaha…”
After chuckling, Niu Haishan continued, “Now I can rest assured, but… you must also be careful. You must never go to mine the Spectral Gems. Don’t even think about taking it for yourself because it’s the most dangerous place in the Ancient World. There’s a fierce beast there that surpasses even the peak of the Honorable Emperor realm. It’s infinitely close to the power of a god, so you cannot ever go there.”
At first, Luo Tian was flying high in heaven.
He was thinking about forging a dark weapon and then going on a rampage in the Ancient World. He would kill any Honorable Emperor realm expert who pissed him off.
But now, he had instantly fallen into the depths of hell.
There was a biting cold in his heart as if he had been struck by lightning.
“Damn it, is this how you’re going to mess with me?”
“Power that is infinitely close to a god? Strength surpassing the Honorable Emperor realm? Isn’t this just asking me to die?” Luo Tian was feeling all sorts of emotions as he no longer had the heart to listen. He felt like living had lost its meaning.
Niu Haishan thought Luo Tian was still listening attentively and said, “But according to the ten years I’ve spent lurking there, I have found a pattern. There is one day in the year when that ancient beast will suddenly disappear.”
Luo Tian’s vacant eyes suddenly widened, and his heart began to beat wildly again. He immediately asked, “Which day is that?”
You are really too mischievous.
I thought there wasn’t a chance anymore.
Niu Haishan then said, “On the fifteenth of August, when the moon is full, he will suddenly disappear on that night. I don’t know where he goes, either. It was also during that one night that I brought back a few Spectral Gems, but I didn’t expect it would bring such a disaster upon the Boundless Sect.”
Upon speaking to this part, Niu Haishan gave a bitter smile.
Luo Tian said to himself, “I’ll be damned! It seems like this ancient beast also celebrates the Mid-Autumn Festival, going back to reunite with his family or something. That’s good; one night is enough. This big brother will go once a year, so I still have plenty of time right now. Sooner or later, I’ll forge a dark weapon for myself.”
Luo Tian finally asked, “So where is the Spectral Gems vein?”
Niu Haishan smiled faintly at first, but his smile grew wider as he spoke, “You probably won’t be able to guess it, and the people in this world probably wouldn’t be able to either. It’s in a place where even the devil sect experts wouldn’t dream of.”
Luo Tian was briefly stunned and asked again, “So where is it?”
Niu Haishan’s smile widened as he replied, “It’s in the abyss behind the Abyss Academy!”
Luo Tian was dumbstruck. He immediately thought of the cave that the Old Ancestor of Mount Hua had mentioned. His heart sank as he said to himself, “Damn it, could it really be the cave that Mount Hua’s Progenitor told me about?”
