C1690 Life in the far north?
Letting out a soft sigh, Patriarch Subhuti spoke out in a low voice as well. He was well aware of the Great Demon King's methods and abilities. His abilities were so great that even the Nine-headed Snake was unable to contend against him. In the past, the Nine-headed Snake had chosen to sleep for a long period of time in order to avoid being detected by the great demon king.
No one knew what the future held for them. However, Patriarch Subhuti suddenly had the feeling that the story regarding the great demon king might not have truly ended yet.
Other than this, even Patriarch Subhuti was not clear about the other uses of the wooden box, but Qin Shaojie was not particularly anxious. He knew that he could ask Wu Xin and Bi Meng about it. Of the two, one was forged by the Great Demon King, and the other was someone who had followed nine deficiency. They might have some information regarding Mu Zhanzi.
As for whether or not he could get some useful information out of her, Qin Shaojie did not really care anymore. After all, he didn't have enough time and patience at the moment, and his wild guesses about the wooden box were uncertain at the moment. Under such circumstances, the only thing he could do was to take care of the things that he could control.
In this lifetime, it was very difficult for people to do everything flawlessly. Perhaps the best state of mind was to leave one with fewer regrets.
He wasn't sure if he could hold on in the end, but he could clearly feel that the Golden Crow Sword was becoming more and more spiritual, and its power was gradually being excavated. This made Qin Shaojie feel mixed emotions. He was delighted that he could borrow the power of the Golden Crow Sword and that it could pose a threat to him when fighting against the Nine-headed Snake. Worried that, once the Golden Crow Sword grew stronger, it would pose a sufficient amount of danger to him and he could even receive a backlash at any time.
The spirits of the Boundless Immortal Orchid and the Sunburn Tree had grown quite a bit by now, perhaps they would be able to speak freely to others after three to five years.
was also surprised when Patriarch Subhuti suddenly mentioned the souls of Boundless Immortal Orchid and Sunburn Tree. But to Qin Shaojie, this news was from the Good thing. Previously, he had unintentionally acquired the Boundless Immortal Orchid. If it hadn't been for Patriarch Subhuti's insistence, he probably would've unintentionally refined it. The Sunburn Tree's soul was also extremely related to him, and it was because the Sunburn Tree's soul and consciousness had fused, that he found the correct way back when he was about to lose himself in the The Endless Universe.
These two were true heavenly and earthly treasures. They were quite precious.
It was just that Qin Shaojie did not think that these two treasures would grow so fast. Based on what he had predicted, even if Patriarch Subhuti personally trained them, he would need to spend a very, very long period of time to be able to truly develop these two treasures. But based on what Patriarch Subhuti had just said, the spirituality of these two things was most likely beyond imagination.
Under this kind of state, Qin Shaojie could only smile in relief. No matter what, he was naturally hoping that the souls of Wuya Immortal Orchid and Sunburn Tree would gain true intelligence. To them, this was true fortune.
If nothing unexpected happened, the decisive battle between the Nine Peaks Tower, the Heaven Gate, and the Earth Gate would soon begin. As a precaution, the ancestor would hide in the Qilin's little world for a while.
The existence of Patriarch Subhuti was an enormous secret, even now. Aside from a limited number of important figures, no one else knew anything else about him. Otherwise, the Nine Peaks Tower would not be so quiet right now. With the character of the Gate of Heaven and Earth, they would definitely try to snatch the Bodhi tree without a care for the cost!
Don't worry, I'm not that timid with my old bones. However, Patriarch Subhuti shook his head. It seemed as though he wasn't worried about any possible problems at all. Even though he rarely made a move and didn't have a strong battle force, he was more certain than anyone else that no matter who it was, they would find it difficult to keep him here. Back then, even if he was as strong as the great demon king, he did not truly hold himself back. If it wasn't because of fate between him and Qin Shaojie, he wouldn't have been able to stay in the Nine Peaks Tower all along.
Towards the words of Patriarch Subhuti, Qin Shaojie could only smile helplessly.
He knew the personality of Patriarch Subhuti. If he wasn't willing, any sort of persuasion would be useless. But of course, he also believed in Patriarch Subhuti's ability. The Between the Heavens and the Earth s were able to force him into a corner, and very few were able to do so!
One more thing. Can the ancestor sense any changes in the situation in the far north?
As he spoke till here, Qin Shaojie's eyebrows creased as well. The current Heaven Gate and Earth Gate could no longer threaten Qin Shaojie. What he was truly worried about was the changes to the Nine-headed Snake and the Extreme North!
The world was not aware of the dangers that could arise in the far north. After all, it was freezing cold in the far north and snow was flying everywhere. Normal people were simply unable to penetrate into the depths of this land.
In that place where the Sky and Earth profound energy was sparse, it was not suitable for warriors to cultivate. The extreme northern region had even become an abandoned place for the entire Tian Yuan Continent. But such a place actually hid a possibility that Tian Yuan Continent might face annihilation!
This was a sealed area. And the sealed land was the corpse of a powerful expert from another realm!
One must know that the skeletons of saints were extremely tyrannical. Unless it was an expert of the same level, it would be extremely difficult to shatter his bones. However, the person sealed in the extreme north was a legendary expert who was rumored to be able to fight against the Great Demon King! What a powerful character. Even if he were dead, his strength still wouldn't be something they could easily deal with.
That place, even until now, Qin Shaojie had never gone there, but he had never neglected or forgotten that place.
He even made the Prophet focus all his energy on the extreme north just so that he could control everything in that place as much as possible.
The auras of the extreme northern lands were getting increasingly chaotic. If he wasn't mistaken, the extreme northern lands wouldn't be able to hold on for too long.
At this point, a hint of worry and seriousness appeared on Patriarch Subhuti's face as well. He was naturally aware of the dangers of the extreme north. He also knew that if anything were to happen to the extreme north, it would not affect the so-called Nine Peaks Tower, but the entire human race and even the life forms of the Tian Yuan Continent.
Countless years ago, many experts and powers from other realms had barged into the Tian Yuan Continent. Although after the great war, only the Four Great Divine Beasts and a few other races remained, and the rest had all been annihilated, it was still difficult for people to ignore the huge commotion caused back then. Countless years had passed, but this piece of history hadn't even recorded down three of them. However, he could not deny that this was an indisputable fact!
Under these circumstances, if not for the Great Demon King sealing the entire Tian Yuan Continent and erasing all traces of it from the universe, there would still be an endless stream of foreign experts rushing over. Amongst the experts, the Saints were the most ordinary ones, and some of them were at the Supreme Realm! At that time, the Tian Yuan Continent would surely be annihilated.
Because the resources above Tian Yuan Continent was enough to attract them, and most importantly, the heart of the continent!
Back then, Qin Shaojie had also encountered experts from other forces in the Outer Realm above his own Destiny Star. Although it was only a single encounter, there was an enormous difference between the two, which caused Qin Shaojie to have no choice but to worry about the possible danger here! One thing was certain, at least, that the current Tian Yuan Continent would not be able to withstand the attacks of the foreign experts!
And if the news of the heart of the continent got out, perhaps the entire universe would go crazy!
Can't hold on for too long?
Towards the news that Patriarch Subhuti had revealed, Qin Shaojie was no exception. Whether it was the information left behind by the remnant soul of the Great Demon King, or the formation that Patriarch Subhuti had mentioned earlier, Qin Shaojie knew that the situation in the extreme north was perhaps even more troublesome than he had imagined!
He wasn't afraid of how difficult the future would be, he was just afraid that he wouldn't have enough time.
Now, not only did the backlash of the Golden Crow Sword affect him, the threat of the Nine-headed Snake, the problem of the Gate of Heaven and Earth had not been resolved, he also needed to quickly arrange the sarcophagus using his spiritual sense on top of the Tian Yuan Continent. Only then would he be able to hide the Tian Yuan Continent in this universe again. Otherwise, if a foreign expert were to sense the presence of this place and even the existence of the Tian Yuan Continent s, then everything would be too late.
However, Qin Shaojie had specifically asked Patriarch Subhuti about the information regarding the Extreme North, not because he was in a rush for more time.
A message came from the Prophet that a creature was awakening in the far north. With a deep voice, Qin Shaojie clenched his fists and said softly.
Initially, Han Feng had specially come to look for him for this information, which meant that the prediction was not fake, but real. However, if that was the case, then the situation was truly terrible! One had to know that what was sealed in the far north were corpses, corpses that had been dead for hundreds of thousands of years!
But even if that was the case, it was enough to cause Qin Shaojie to be wary. But what Han Feng was telling him right now was that a type of being was awakening. These were two completely different concepts!
He did not know what this so-called being that was awakening was. It could be that a new intelligence had emerged from the corpses of experts from other realms, or it could be that this had nothing to do with the corpses of experts from other realms, or it could also be that the remnant souls left behind by experts from other realms were now awakening.
But no matter which possibility it was, it made Qin Shaojie tense up, and did not dare to have any underestimation of it.
When Patriarch Subhuti heard these words, his face also began to tremble. It was clear that this news not only had a huge impact on Qin Shaojie, but also on the Patriarch! One had to know that the word 'living creature' implied intelligence and intelligence beyond one's true strength!
This undoubtedly added too much uncertainty and danger!
Logically speaking, it was impossible for such a creature to appear in the far north!
Shaking his head, Patriarch Subhuti's face was filled with disbelief as he spoke in a low voice.
One had to know that the corpse was an existence that had reached the Supreme Realm. Even though it had lost its life force, the aura of an absolutely superior being still lingered. Under this kind of aura, it was enough to intimidate all living beings in the surrounding area, causing them to have no life within a hundred mile radius. This was a technique and ability unique to the strong, and also a manifestation of the strong's status.
Even after falling, they wouldn't be affected by any other life forms.
In Patriarch Subhuti's eyes, the possibility of it being a remnant soul left behind by that alien expert was even more impossible.
The Great Devil King was a cautious existence. Back then, in order to eliminate any future troubles, he had even refined a large formation to wrap up his corpse within. Clearly, he had inspected it countless times and was only relieved when he confirmed his death. Otherwise, the great demon king would not easily let this monster's corpse bury it deep in the north.
If that was the case, then it was naturally impossible for such a creature to appear.
Furthermore, the Prophet even used the word "awakening" as if it was a sign.
It was a pity that the Prophet's predictions were rather vague and were unable to clarify a few things clearly.
However, Patriarch Subhuti knew very well that the abilities and methods of the current Prophet were definitely not something they could compare with back then.
