Chapter 152 Dark Dynasty
Wen Ying nodded gratefully, and for the first time, she had a smile on her face, then she made a bow Lyu Liang. “Mr. Lyu, thanks for your kindness. I am willing to tell you everything that has happened!”
Later on, from Wen Ying’s narration, Lyu Liang’s expression changed from time to time. At times he was shocked, at times he was angry. He even had an intention to kill someone as he began to understand a dark world that he had never touched on before…
The Nether Big World, like its name, was a world with a gloomy and deadly atmosphere.
The birth of this big world had not been studied, and it was definitely not after the birth of the Pangu Origin World! Unlike other big world structures that Lyu Liang recognized, there were ethnic differences, but they were never divided into regions, and they were always mixed.
Since the birth of the Nether Big World, there had been a huge existence that transcended all forces: the Dark Dynasty!
This was actually just the name of a martial art. The reason it was so domineering was that its strength was simply a shock to heaven!
There was no distinction between the Heaven Realm and the Mortal World in the Nether Big World. No matter what kind of cultivation was done, it was above this land.
The Dark Dynasty was here, it had the absolute king status. No one knew his final strength. He only knew that the inner light was the power of the Tao Ancestor level. There were five people. It was said that this was not the top existence!
The Heavenly Alliance had set a rule. As long as it had reached the Tao Ancestor level, it had to be registered in the Heavenly Alliance, and it was not allowed to take any low-level cultivation of the big world. But there was one more premise, which was that no one took the initiative to provoke.
Although these Tao Ancestors of the Dark Dynasty did not usually shoot, their deterrence was very overbearing! And not counting them, there were dozens of cultivators above the Tao Master level. Such a powerful martial art did not take long, or by force, or by temptation, successfully unifying the other forces of the entire Nether Big World.
There, the Dark Dynasty was the existence of a king of nations, and they adopted a naked mode of high-handed rule.
Because the land area was not large, the Dark Dynasty stipulated that as long as it was born in the Nether Big World, it was necessary to identify the physique from birth, as long as it was not the seed of the immortal, it would be killed immediately!
If you were a cultivator, you would be classified into various forces from an early age, and then your future life would be determined based on your qualifications.
Like other big worlds, a special physique and Spiritual Root and multilingual attributes were always superior, and remained unchanged here. Therefore, these high-quality resources had been assigned to various martial arts cultivation since childhood, and other qualifications were not good. If they failed to meet the requirements within a certain period of time, they would be dispatched to the dangerous areas to do labor or become enslaved. Basically, they would live a dark life.
The family of Wen Ying was originally born in the Nether Big World. Her father, the head of the Wen Clan, was actually a protective ambassador of a relatively powerful local school.
The Wen Clan was also a large tribe. The number of people in it was over a thousand. However, because of the system of survival of the fittest in this place, in addition to the qualifications of more than 100 people practicing in the martial art, most of the other ethnic groups were all sent to suffer in remote places.
In fact, there were only three people with Wen Ying’s generation. As for the original “Wen Clan’s Ten Sons”, it was just a smokescreen to fool people. Among them, his older brother and younger brother, because of their mediocrity, were also being distributed to the crowd.
Soon afterward, the younger brother was brutally killed because he had offended a high-level cultivator of a great power. After Wen Ying’s mother learned that she had gotten revenge for her son in desperation, she also violated the ban on the Nether Big World.
Here, strength was the truth, which was the law of the land! The lower cultivators had always been objects of bullying from the higher cultivators. Now that Wen Ying’s mother had killed a good disciple of a big force for an enslaved servant, it was naturally impossible to escape the sanctions of the Dark Dynasty!
Without any suspense, Wen Ying’s mother was killed by the emperor sent by the dynasty, and the only thing that was fortunate was that the head of the Wen Clan took great risks and would keep a trace of his soul.
This time during the war of aggression, the ambassador was the Dark Dynasty, and the purpose was very clear— to turn the Chaotic World into a subsidiary of the Nether Big World. At this point, they had absolute confidence and capital. The number and quality of the cultivators were definitely on the side of the Chaotic World.
The only thing that surprised them was that the people of the Demon Clan, who had already returned to the Pangu Origin World, had just rushed back to fight with them. At present, in the Chaotic World in the Canglan Territory, the people of the Demon Clan accounted for one third. And according to reliable news, even the most mysterious Ghost Clan and Spirit Clan had sent some elite to participate in the war.
These unexpected reinforcements suddenly reversed the current unfavorable situation, so the main forces on both sides were currently in a stalemate. The large and small battles had also been played hundreds of times. In addition to losing some people, no one was hurt.
As for the opening of the Wufang Territory and the Tianyuan Territory, and the emergence of the three forces of the Wangui Sect, the Ghostly Fire Palace, and the Sun-Moon Palace, it seemed to be to disturb the rear, but its real purpose was to find an adequate footing, changing the key items of the entire battle!
“My father is the ‘Fire Emissary’ among the five emissaries of the Sun-Moon Palace. The Wen Clan stayed in the Pangu Origin World to find the Immortal treasure, but unfortunately, we found no sight of it in the past millennium. Now the three forces gathered here because they had received the news that the Immortal treasure was somewhere in this world, and it should be in the Wufang Territory! The Tianyuan Territory is only being used to mislead others.” After Wen Ying finished, she looked at Lyu Liang and seemed to wait for his response.
Yang Ying said gently as well, “I had the same situation as her. Although I had a good life in the Ghostly Fire Palace, many of my tribespeople suffered in the Nether Big World. My parents had offended the disciples of the big forces and they…” Yang Ying sobbed before she could finish her words.
Lyu Liang took a deep breath and took a glimpse at Yang Ying and Wen Ying, then he said, “It is unbelievable there is such a world full of darkness and desperation! Anyway, I have to go to the Nether Big World, and when I finished what I have to do, I will save those people of your tribes!”
Wen Ying kneeled and kowtowed, then she raised her head and said, “I cannot compare with the relationship between sister Ying and you. With the sins that I had committed before, I am willing to exchange my life for a promise from you. I am begging you to save the Wen Clansman together when you save my sister’s clansman. In that way, I will have no regrets after I die!”
Lyu Liang went over and pulled Wen Ying up, then he said solemnly, “Didn’t you understand what I said before? I will save the clansman of both your clans. As for the relationship between us, we shall redefine it after we met Qingxuan. You are Yang Ying’s younger sister, as long as Qingxuan forgives you, you will also be my sister. By all means, I could not watch your clansman suffer and not do anything about it!”
Then, Lyu Liang suddenly blushed and quickly added another sentence. “I said the latter part of the sentence on behalf of Dumb!”
Yang Ying blushed, and Wen Ying snickered. Lyu Liang scratched his head in embarrassment and the gap between them dissipated.
“By the way, what is the Immortal treasure that you stayed to look for?” To avoid embarrassment, Lyu Liang quickly asked a question that lingered in his mind.
“It is said to be a sharp blade called ‘the lost Immortal treasure’. The rumor says that it can tear any Bounded Domain of space. It seems to have other functions and taboos, but I don’t know about it. I only managed to eavesdrop a little information from my Dad.” Wen Ying told him what she knew.
“I know some other information. This Immortal treasure is a knife, and its blade is invisible and untraceable. Only when the user triggers a secret technique can it be condensed into the knife. Its handle is made of gold and has a dragon-shaped pearl concealed at the bottom. The knife is named ‘Dragon Tooth’. I learned about it from the secret scrolls of the Ghostly Fire Palace.” Yang Ying added aptly, which made Lyu Liang shiver!
Dragon-Teeth Dagger? Isn’t that what Zhu Yu wanted to search for in the Chaotic World? From the information gathered, it seemed that it was in the Wufang Territory. What a coincidence!
At the moment, Lyu Liang pondered and modified his strategy directly. Initially, he had wanted to save people and destroy the realm passage at the same time. Now he just wanted to save the people first and discuss other things later.
Lyu Liang did not hesitate and immediately asked, “How did both of you get in?”
“I used to strongly discourage the Palace Lord from being enemies with you. However, he thought that had I turned to your side, and as a punishment, he imprisoned me for 10 years to reflect on it. He cast spells on my body’s chains, which continuously absorb my Primordial Qi.” Yang Ying then chuckled and continued, “As expected, ordinary cultivators cannot be compared with you.”
Wen Ying nodded as well. “I am here as the Sun-Moon Palace’s ambassador to visit sister Ying. They knew we had a good relationship, so they hoped that I could persuade her to go all out in the war happening in the Chaotic World. But I have already left the Sun-Moon Palace. I came here to save sister Ying and happened to encounter you, so we come up with the previous plan.”
“In that case, both of you can enter my portable cave residence now, and I will sneak you out! As for the realm passage, we will make another plan after we get out!” The two ladies pondered over Lyu Liang’s words, nodded, and agreed.
“Alright, the Palace Lord guarded the realm passage with his people, and he had a secret technique that can raise his cultivation to the Middle-stage of Tao Master. If you confront him unprepared, you will not have any advantage so we should leave now! I have nothing to reminisce about here in the Ghostly Fire Palace. By the way, if you encounter Wulei, who belongs to the Ghostly-Fire Twelve Lords and has the character ‘Wu’ embroidered on his robe, please pardon him. He helped me before and seemed to have certain reasons for staying here.” After Yang Ying finished, she was sent into the cave residence by Lyu Liang, and Wen Ying followed after.
Lyu Liang delayed no longer, and when he went back to the entrance, he heard noises outside with some shouts, and several auras at the Almighty Immortal level rushed toward the cave at full speed.
Lyu Liang did not panic and grinned, he knew that Wen Ying had been exposed. He pulled out the Kunwu Sword and flew into the air, then he slashed toward the cave below and disappeared.
As Lyu Liang expected, when the slash came down, the cave collapsed with a “bang”, which attracted most people over. When the stronghold of the Ghostly Fire Palace burst into commotion, the patrol teams were no longer in their positions.
With almost no obstacles, Lyu Liang easily ran outside the stronghold. First thing after he came out, he took out the Illusion Sound Shell and triggered the trace of a soul inside, then he shouted to the shell, “Brother Zhu, the Dragon-Teeth Dagger is in the Wufang Territory…”
But before he finished, he heard an angry female voice from the opposite side. “Zhu Yu! How dare you communicate with others while fighting me! Do you think that I will not dare to kill you?”
Lyu Liang was shocked and then suddenly remembered that an Immortal General, Ye Tianlong, watched him so Zhu Yu had to be in the same situation as him. Was an Immortal General chasing him now?
Just when Lyu Liang got anxious, Zhu Yu’s surprised voice was heard. “Haha, brother, your news is so surprising to me! Wait, I will come and find you now! Xiao Xuan, I am going to the Wufang Territory now. Let’s stop fighting, don’t you want to listen to me regarding what happened that year? I will tell you now!”
