Guo Yunze's eyelids twitched violently after hearing Guo Renyu's words.
His soul was not weak, reaching the level of spiritual energy atomization, but he was too old and nearing the end of his life. The essence of his soul had been severely depleted, and he was most vulnerable to soul injury.
"No need for soul searching, I can speak directly!"
Guo Yunze said in a panic, looking at Ning Chuan, and said, "I promise to tell the truth!"
Beside him, Guo Renyu grinned and said, "Ancestor, you've lied before. With that precedent, who would believe you?"
You unfilial son/daughter!
Guo Yunze gritted his teeth in anger, and after uttering a furious rebuke, he quickly suppressed his emotions and solemnly said to Ning Chuan, "I am willing to make Martial Dao Oath!"
"But..."
Guo Renyu picked up the conversation, his smile unwavering, and deliberately drew out his words, saying, "I've heard there's a way to bypass the Martial Dao Oath, is that right, Ancestor?"
Guo Yunze: "..."
At this moment, Ning Chuan extended his right hand, his five fingers spread, and a surge of spiritual energy emerged.
Guo Yunze sensed something, his eyes changed drastically, and he quickly said, "Don't search my soul, I'll tell you everything!"
The Original Martial Seal of the Ancient Dragon Elephant Scripture comes from the Divine Martial Stele in the North Sea Domain.
That was a secret realm.
According to the secret history left by the Guo Dynasty, that Martial Seal seems to be a kind of token within a secret realm, allowing free access to certain areas.
Guo Yunze, fearing that his soul would be searched, explained carefully.
Ning Chuan raised an eyebrow, slightly surprised. He was planning to visit the Divine Martial Stele Spring Festival.
I didn't pay attention at first because I wasn't planning to go to the Divine Martial Stele.
However, some time ago, the Divine Martial Stele exhibited rare and unusual phenomena, which are said to indicate that a great treasure is about to be found there.
I became interested in exploring it, which is why I asked Renyu about the whereabouts of the Martial Seal, only to learn that it was in your possession.
Guo Yunze explained the cause and effect.
Ning Chuan nodded and said, "It's highly credible."
After saying that, he pressed his right hand down in mid-air, capturing Guo Yunze, whose expression had changed drastically, and used the Soul-Searching Art on him.
He didn't trust the other party.
The Original Martial Seal of the Ancient Dragon Elephant Scripture is related to the journey to the Divine Martial Stele, and he needs to be 100% certain of it.
Guo Yunze closed his eyes, his body convulsing.
Ning Chuan quickly examined his memories and soon found the relevant parts.
"How about it?"
Guo Renyu asked, "Did he lie?"
Ning Chuan shook his head slightly, dissipated his spiritual power, and threw Guo Yunze to the ground.
As Guo Yunze said, the Ancient Dragon Elephant Scripture came from the Divine Martial Stele.
Guo Yunze's goal was simply to make his actions easier once he entered the Divine Martial Stele.
"Hmm..."
Guo Yunze lay on the edge of the pit, groaning as he opened his eyes.
Although he was nearing his end, he was still a Fifth Heaven divine Divine General with great strength, unlike Guo Kaijia who fainted on the spot after his soul was searched.
"Ancestor, I've wronged you!"
Guo Renyu sighed, squatted down, and said seriously, "You are truly an honest and kind old man."
"..."
Upon hearing this, Guo Yunze was so angry that his face trembled and he couldn't utter a word.
"Ancestor, you wouldn't be plotting to kill me, would you? I had Ning Chuan search your soul, it was for your own good."
Guo Renyu, with a righteous air, said, "Think about it, if you just leave like this, what if Ning Chuan later thinks you might retaliate and decides to prevent this from happening again?"
The entire Guo Family will be wiped out because of this!
But now that Ning Chuan has examined your memories and knows your thoughts, this disaster will not happen!
Tell me, am I doing this for your own good?
Guo Yunze: "..."
He was furious, yet he found some truth in what this unfilial descendant said.
"Thank you so much!"
Guo Yunze gritted his teeth and said angrily, "What other filial acts do you have? Tell me all of them. If not, I'm leaving!"
He didn't want to stay in the secret realm for even a second longer.
If he stays any longer, even if Ning Chuan doesn't kill him, he'll be so angry he'll die!
That's all.
Guo Renyu propped himself up on his knees, chuckled, and said, "Take care."
Guo Yunze remained silent, once again mobilizing his Force to stimulate the spatial energy within his body.
Last time, it was interrupted by Ning Chuan before it could be fully activated.
Ning Chuan thought for a moment, then looked at Guo Renyu and said, "We'll leave too. I'll take you to the Heavenly River."
"Need not."
Guo Renyu shook his head, rejecting the suggestion, and said, returning to the previous topic, "The Bronze Gate must be opening soon; you should go there as soon as possible."
At this point, he seemed to remember something, lowered his head, looked at Guo Yunze lying on the ground, and a slight smile appeared on his lips.
Guo Yunze felt uneasy under his gaze and asked, "What do you want?"
Guo Renyu smiled slightly and said, "The information I gathered only came from ordinary members of the First Alliance who were searching for me. As the Federation's renowned eleventh Divine General, you hold a high position and great power, and you must know more detailed information."
As he spoke, he looked up at Ning Chuan and suggested, "Why don't you check his memories again?"
Guo Yunze trembled upon hearing this and shouted, "I don't know!"
The bronze door was vibrating incessantly, the frequency increasing, as if it were about to open.
But no one can be sure of the exact time!
Guo Renyu grinned, a smile that made Guo Yunze uneasy, and said, "Ancestor, I believe you, but Ning Chuan isn't familiar with you, so it's inevitable that he'll doubt your words..."
Guo Yunze interrupted him abruptly, veins bulging on his forehead, roaring, "Stop talking! I'm not your ancestor, okay?!"
He wasn't lying.
Ning Chuan shook his head slightly and said, "I also saw memories of this kind when I searched his soul just now."
"I've already checked it..."
Guo Renyu clicked his tongue, seemingly filled with regret, but his voice was sincere as he said, "Ancestor, I knew I hadn't misjudged you. You are an honest and kind-hearted man!"
"..."
Guo Yunze opened his mouth, unsure of what to say, only wishing that the activation of the spatial energy could have been faster.
He even regretted begging for mercy.
Guo Renyu stopped joking with him, turned his gaze away, and said, " Ning Chuan, you don't need to see me off. The bronze gate must be opening soon, hurry up and go."
Just as Ning Chuan was about to speak, a reprimanding voice came from behind.
"Stop talking nonsense. How many times have I told you? In our line of work, don't talk nonsense about things you're not sure about. That door won't open for another year or two!"
Upon hearing the first syllable, Ning Chuan's eyes changed instantly, his body and mind tensed, and he grabbed Guo Renyu's shoulder, pulling him forward explosively.
boom!
Earth and rocks flew everywhere, and ancient weapons shattered!
The barren desert beneath his feet was crushed by Ning Chuan's single stomp!
At the same time, the surrounding space was completely occupied by golden Stars, and ten thousand Divine Weapon trembled continuously, exuding a power that could cause the sky to collapse and the earth to cave in!
No wonder Ning Chuan reacted so strongly.
The sound that reached his ears was clearly not far behind him, only a few meters away.
But in his Divine Sense, that area was just an empty desert.
Even with his terrifyingly powerful senses, he didn't notice anything.
Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!
The ten thousand Divine Weapon trembled violently, about to be launched, when Ning Chuan's eyes flashed and he controlled the Divine Weapon to stop.
His Divine Sense detected the person who spoke.
A gaunt old man with a ruddy complexion and a goatee held a pair of round walnuts in his hands, which spun smoothly around.
"Take me with you..."
Upon seeing Ning Chuan's actions, Guo Yunze realized something was wrong, but as soon as he opened his mouth, a shadow fell quickly, and he could only utter indistinct sounds.
Suddenly, a gaunt old man appeared and stepped on Guo Yunze's face.
And then, they ground it down hard!
"Um... what happened?"
Guo Renyu was completely bewildered. As he spoke, he naturally turned around and exclaimed in surprise, " Master Lou, what brings you here?!"
Master Lou was still grinding Guo Yunze's old face, rolling his eyes, and said, "What do you mean I'm here? I didn't leave at all!"
If I hadn't intervened secretly, you would have been arrested long ago.
Did they really think they could escape the search of those Divine General with just a ' Space-Intercepting Cloth '?
Upon hearing this, Guo Renyu pouted and said, "Then why aren't you taking me with you!"
"I'm trying to teach you, but you don't understand the old man's good intentions!"
"I'm annoyed," said Master Lou.
"What teachings, the law?"
"That's right!"
Master Lou said in a deep voice, "I want you to know the power of Rule, so I have you study law. Just like a while ago, you dug up his family's ancestral graves, but because you were familiar with the Federation Rule, that is, the law, you were acquitted."
As he spoke, he lifted his foot and rubbed it back and forth in the mud and sand.
Beside him, Guo Yunze's face was a bloody mess, almost unrecognizable.
You did a great job in this regard!
Master Lou continued, "However, you're a bit too obsessed with Rule. The reason I don't interfere is to make you realize that Rule are just restrictions, and no matter what kind of Rule, there will always be people who can ignore them and be unrestricted."
Guo Renyu pursed his lips, offering no rebuttal.
"You won that lawsuit, but what was the outcome?"
Guo Renyu remained silent.
Master Lou ignored him, pointed at Guo Yunze at his feet, and answered his own question, saying, "You were ordered to be arrested by this guy, so you could only run away. He won't follow the Rule with you."
Guo Renyu lowered his head and said in a muffled voice, "I understand."
Seeing this, Master Lou smiled and said, "I'm not saying the Rule aren't important. Before someone becomes invincible, everyone must be bound by the Rule."
However, this constraint is relative.
The Guo Family patriarch may disregard the Rule for you, but when it comes to the young man beside you, he'd love to follow Rule.
Similarly, the young man beside you doesn't need to follow the Rule with the Guo Family patriarch at all.
Finally, Master Lou turned to look at Ning Chuan.
Ning Chuan narrowed his eyes, a sharp glint flashing within them, as he observed Master Lou as well.
Even now, seeing it with my own eyes, I still can't see through it.
His Divine Sense, after entering Master Lou's body, vanished Shadowless, as if a clay ox had entered the sea.
"Hey kid, huh? Stop staring at me, you're giving me goosebumps!"
Master Lou rolled up his sleeves, gesturing that his hair stood on end, and said nervously, "Also, quickly put away the Divine Treasury of Ten Thousand Weapons; it's making people uneasy."
I'm only good at concealing my presence and escaping, but I can't stop that thing.
If you lose control for a second, I'll die young!
Guo Renyu instinctively chimed in, correcting him, "That's called dying of old age!"
Ning Chuan raised his hand, and the golden Stars that blotted out the sky dispersed and disappeared.
Of course, he didn't believe a word of what Master Lou said.
Guo Renyu once said that Master Lou had told him that this secret realm in Heavenly Cloud Mountain was among the top Martial Star realms.
However, this secret realm has only just opened.
Moreover, he found in Guo Kaijia's memory that the First Alliance sent several big names in history, but they found nothing and had no clues. They could only speculate that the secret realm had an exceptionally long history.
" Master Lou, who exactly are you?!"
Having met several times before and thus knowing each other, Ning Chuan got straight to the point and asked directly.
"A reclusive human Heavenly King?"
"A transformed King Realm ferocious beast?"
"Or is it an awakened Law Spirit?"
