Celestial Peak

Chapter 359: Truth X

Chapter 359: Truth X

Entering the mausoleum, Wang Ling saw a nostalgic sight. A door, as tall as a three-meter giant, on the door was nine rings forming an arc and in the center of it all was a silhouette with an aura around it.

In the past, it was protected by Golems with strengths at the peak of the Celestial God Realm. But he defeated them after a grueling battle and now, their remains now litter the area of the first room.

The doors opened easily with a single of his fingers. When he first opened the doors of the mausoleum in his previous life, he experienced a swept of angelic qi. The cold wind passed him and in the middle of the room, there was a stand where the scripture lays.

The scripture then glows golden, a holy aura permeates the area. The knowledge of the seal which chained the realm still echoed in his ears to this day. The seal that had been unchained became his gateway to the realm of today.

With him unchaining the previous era the world became a paradise to cultivators. One step, two steps, three steps stop; he now stood before the stand that presented him the scriptures. He touched the stand with his angelic qi wanting to see if there is any reaction, but there was none.

He raised his head and turned forward, he saw a door beyond the stand. It was the room he failed to enter because of the pursuers chasing him at the time.

The second room, he entered and there he saw signs of five heavy objects that used to be there. The five black pillars the Academy took was nowhere to be found, but it didn't matter for Wang Ling had already comprehended its very essence.

He looked at the room, ancient runes were etched in the room. The runes may seem to be useless designs but he now has the ability to see through things that cannot be seen, words that originated from the distant past were now seen by his eyes.

"The innate ability of the Holy Lord is simply astonishing." He found the words of the runes translating before his eyes to be simply fantastic and amazing.

He read through the runes and formed a line; "Five is one and one is five, the five keys are present but only one to open the door further."

Wang Ling called upon the golden wall inside his head, and the five golden walls aligned themselves on his palms. The golden walls formed up and Wang Ling touched the wall on the other side of the room, the Golden Wall disintegrated into runes that latched itself on the walls of the room.

The Golden Runes hovered in the air and when Wang Ling stepped into the middle.

With the right position and the right angle, Wang Ling saw the runes overlapped and formed words that was not previously there. With the words of the room forming in his head, Wang Ling received some sort of epiphany stemming from his Holy Lord Bloodline.

He saw the image then again it was just words. The words flowed inside his mind, but these words were reacting to his bloodline and echoing in his mind as if it was a voice, not simply just words.

"The world trembled and the humans, elves, and beastmen began to tremble in fear. I stripped him of the bloodline of Heaven and blessed the lands with life, the presence of death disappeared replacing it was a bountiful life.

"The presence of angelic qi will always be omnipresent granting the coming eras a bountiful life. However, as the scripture will be used to sustain the seal of the realm, the world will be deprived of qi from the upper realms.

"With my blood as the catalyst, the one to receive the scripture will use my blood to save him from the impending doom, he will go to the realm where no life can exist, where death will have no way of reaching him. He will go to my birthplace, and one day, he will return as my successor!"

The words stopped and Wang Ling was brought back to his senses. But he still had questions as the words of the mausoleum answered nothing. It spoke of the angelic qi but nothing regarding its relations of the Gray Figure or the upcoming disaster regarding the Demons.

The Abyssal Rifts were beginning to form faster than before and the enemies were stronger than it previously was. He had yet to understand what they were, and he had yet to fully grasp why they were doing.

He wanted to know about the past of the Realm, why it was sealed why it was the only realm with the Invisible path.

Wang Ling wanted answers, but what he received was a cryptic message. However, he did get the thing regarding the Void and how he was alive. The words my successor had always stuck with him, as it was the words always uttered by the Gray Figure.

With such words getting repeated here, Wang Ling was once again in doubt. The Gray Figure could be of two things, destruction or salvation. He had seen its confrontation with the Demon, he knows what happened at that time, but he still did not know what it signifies, rather it was still shrouded in a mist he wishes to uncover.

And so, Wang Ling stepped out, he head over to the Tomb where the qi of Hell resides. He wished to also know about the truth of Hell. He stepped forward and entered the Tomb, went past the first room where he got the Hell Dominator Body Technique, and then entered the next one where the mysterious book of Hell was found.

Just like before, he gathered the contents of the walls into his plans and placed them on the wall that is on the farthest back. He wished to see the room lit up just like the previous one, but unlike the mausoleum, a door opened, and there, he found a room with runes that had been etched with blood.
