Chapter 1081 Internal Strife And Intruders (2)
?
"You won't die in the hands of the Nine Immortals," Zhou Shu said. It was better to go along with this troublesome woman.
Her heaven-defying luck was really inexplicable.
"Are the Nine Immortals really dead?"
Shi Changsheng and Wang Xuanyi were still in disbelief.
They couldn't believe that they had actually dealt with the Nine Immortals so smoothly.
One had to know that before this, they had spent more than a hundred years planning, but they hadn't even seen the Nine Immortals.
The change should have been since Bai Qianqian appeared.
"They're dead," Zhou Shu said. In front of him, on the Legendary Armament Canon, the nine words had already been gathered.
'Lin', 'Bing', 'Dou', Zhe', 'Jie', 'Zhen', 'Lie', 'Zhen', 'Xing'!
The nine words were inlaid on the cover of the Legendary Armament Canon like decorative patterns, emitting a faint light. Even the entire Legendary Armament Canon glowed, as if it was undergoing some kind of change.
But Zhou Shu still couldn't tell what had changed. He would probably have to wait until it completely changed before he could know what had changed.
The nine Heavenly Dao laws had already been devoured by the Legendary Armament Canon, which meant that the Nine Immortals had completely disappeared.
Even if they could still revive as You Tian had said, without the Heavenly Dao laws, even if they came back to life, they would no longer live up to their name and could no longer be called the Nine Immortals.
He was confident to say that the Nine Immortals were truly dead.
After being silent for a moment, Wang Xuanyi asked, "Brother Zhou, why are you here?
"What I mean is, since you're in the Origin World, why have we never seen you before?"
"It's a long story," Zhou Shu said. He was also very curious as to when Wang Xuanyi and Diao Moye had entered the Origin World.
"Senior Wang, although the Nine Immortals are dead, do you know anything about them?" Zhou Shu asked.
The earliest that Zhou Shu had known about the existence of the Nine Immortals was when Ling'e saw them kill him in the river of time, and then she had dragged Cang Hao to look for the Nine Immortals.
Until now, his understanding of the Nine Immortals was actually only superficial.
Wang Xuanyi and the others seemed to know a lot about the Nine Immortals. Moreover, from Cang Wu's experience, he could tell that Shi Changsheng and Wang Xuanyi's ultimate goal in the Origin World was the Nine Immortals. It would be a lie to say that they didn't know anything.
"Do you want to say it, or should I?" Wang Xuanyi looked at Shi Changsheng.
"Let me do it." Shi Changsheng looked at Zhou Shu with a complicated expression. "I really didn't expect Cang Wu to be your incarnation!"
This time, even I was wrong!
"People have to improve, don't they?" Zhou Shu smiled. He was in a good mood after seeing Shi Changsheng and Wang Xuanyi again. It had been a long time since he had seen these acquaintances.
"Elder Shi, we've known each other for so long, but I've never heard you mention the Nine Immortals," Zhou Shu said.
"You never asked." Shi Changsheng said. "You would have found out sooner or later. Even though I didn't say anything, didn't you still find out?"
Zhou Shu couldn't help laughing. "What is the origin of the Nine Immortals? What do they have to do with heavenly slaves?"
This was something Zhou Shu was very curious about. In the future, there were only heavenly slaves and no Nine Immortals. If the Nine Immortals didn't exist in that era, when would Ling'er and Feng Wu see him die in battle?
"The Nine Immortals and heavenly slaves have nothing to do with each other." Shi Changsheng said something that Zhou Shu couldn't understand.
"There's no relation between them?"
Weren't they all sent by the Heavenly Dao?
"Heavenly slaves are products of our world, but the Nine Immortals are not," Shi Changsheng continued. "Let's put it this way. Between heavenly slaves and us, it's internal strife, while the Nine Immortals are invaders."
"Invaders?" Zhou Shu frowned. The word invaders was not difficult to understand. "You're saying that the Nine Immortals are not from this world? That's not right. I heard them say that they grasped Heavenly Dao laws and were servants of the Heavenly Dao.
"How can they be invaders?"
"You've experienced a lot. Do you believe everything others say?" Shi Changsheng said. "Can the Nine Immortals tell you their true secret?
"The Heavenly Dao they're talking about is not the Heavenly Dao of our world. It's an invader of our world!
"Speaking of this matter, we have to begin with the composition of our world."
Shi Changsheng continued, "You should be very familiar with grotto-heavens. In that case, you can treat the world we're in as a massive grotto-heaven, and the so-called Heavenly Dao is the master of this grotto-heaven."
After some thought, Zhou Shu said, "You mean that the original master of the grotto-heaven we're in has been replaced?"
Shi Changsheng gave him a thumbs-up. "Smart!
"That's right. For example, I have a grotto-heaven I painstakingly cultivated, but another person forcefully took it away. Moreover, the person who took my grotto-heaven wants to refine it into World Source. This way, everyone in the grotto-heaven will die."
Shi Changsheng used grotto-heavens as an analogy and started from the beginning.
"The people in the grotto-heaven don't want to sit back and wait for death, so they thought of some ways. The Martial Dao is one of them.
"After martial artists cultivate the Martial Dao and break through to the Grotto-Heaven realm, they try to snatch food from the tiger's mouth and tear off a piece from this massive grotto-heaven to become their own small grotto-heaven. In theory, if there are enough Grotto-Heaven realm experts, they can divide this entire massive grotto-heaven into countless small grotto-heavens. But later, people realized that this method didn't work. During the process of seizing grotto-heavens, martial artists will become affected by the grotto-heavens and might even lose their minds and become monsters who only know how to kill."
"Like the Heavenly Dao monsters in the Origin World?" Zhou Shu said solemnly.
"That's right." Shi Changsheng nodded. "That's why we Grotto-Heaven Masters gave up on our grotto-heavens and thought of other ways."
"Do you have a solution?" Zhou Shu asked.
"What do you think?" Shi Changsheng asked.
Zhou Shu knew that he had asked a useless question. If he really thought of a way, wouldn't the problem have been resolved?
Was there a need for Shi Changsheng, Wang Xuanyi, and the others to deal with the Nine Immortals here?
"After saying so much, you still haven't told me the origins of the Nine Immortals," Zhou Shu said.
"As I said just now, the world we're in can be regarded as a grotto-heaven. Apart from our grotto-heaven, there are other grotto-heavens. The existences who want to become the master of our grotto-heaven come from other grotto-heavens. It's the same for the Nine Immortals," Shi Changsheng answered.
Zhou Shu nodded, indicating that he understood.
"It's not that easy for an outsider to become the master of our grotto-heaven. Our grotto-heaven will also resist, so he doesn't have the strength to deal with us 'ants'." Shi Changsheng smiled bitterly.
"That's why there are the Nine Immortals. The Nine Immortals are responsible for eliminating us.
"Over the countless years, they have carried out several world-destroying actions and obtained the blessings of Heaven. The living beings in our world have almost perished several times, but in the end, we still survived.
"But the Nine Immortals were always a sharp sword floating above our heads. We had to get rid of them before we could deal with that invader with all our might."
Shi Changsheng pointed at the sky.
"What's with the heavenly slaves? Shouldn't we face the invaders together? Why is there internal strife?" Zhou Shu frowned.
"There is no lack of traitors at any time. As long as the other party offers enough benefits, there are plenty of people who are willing to be heavenly slaves."
Shi Changsheng said, "The Nine Immortals are suppressed by heaven and earth. When they are weak, they naturally need other forces to eliminate resisting forces like us. The heavenly slaves are this group of degenerates. When we have time, it won't be difficult to destroy them."
