He didn’t hide it anymore and said directly, “I really underestimated you. The formation of my physique is related to Chinatown, so I can’t walk out of Chinatown. Otherwise, I’ll suffer a heavenly tribulation.”
Yu Su was stunned. It was actually so serious.
It was said that the heavenly tribulation was composed of 88 golden lightning bolts. The punishment would not stop until the Daoist priest was reduced to ashes.
“Even a perfected cultivator can’t do it?” Yu Su asked.
Great Perfection Level 5 was already the highest level in the Daoist Association.
If he could not break free from the cage with his cultivation, it would be very difficult for him to do anything else.
Wen Chuan nodded, his expression dim. “Yes, I can’t resist the heavenly tribulation.”
The heavenly tribulation was the power of the Heavenly Dao.
So far, he could only be considered a Daoist priest with some strength. He would never be able to go against the Heavenly Dao.
Wen Chuan said this calmly, not afraid that Yu Su would harm him.
He did not sense any malice from Yu Su.
Even if Yu Su wanted to deal with him, he was confident that he could protect himself or even get rid of her.
Yu Su asked curiously, “Senior Brother, then why is the seal of this city related to you?”
What kind of connection could a city have with a person?
Seeing her curious expression, Wen Chuan coughed. “Since you want to know, I’ll tell you!”
“When I was 25 years old, Chinatown was invaded by foreign enemies. The city gate was opened, and the enemy soldiers entered the city. The enemy began to kill wantonly.”
“My father was the city lord. In order to protect the people, he died in this war. My mother was a metaphysical master. She used an ancient secret technique to sacrifice my flesh and blood to Chinatown.”
“The secret technique took effect. All foreign enemies were killed by an unknown force, and Chinatown was preserved.”
“I fell into a deep sleep. In the blink of an eye, 500 years passed. When I woke up, I realized that my appearance and physical fitness had stopped at 25 years old. I no longer showed any signs of aging.”
“Therefore, I found a place to focus on cultivation and finally reached the perfected fifth level. However, I strangely discovered that I could not leave Chinatown at all. As long as I was more than 50 kilometers away from Chinatown, the lightning tribulation would come.”
Just like that, Wen Chuan became a special existence in Chinatown.
Yu Su said, “Since you were sacrificed, the secret that caused you to live forever must be in the city. I’ll go back and flip through the ancient books. Perhaps I can find some clues.”
She actually knew how to break through the secret technique without affecting the people inside and outside the city, but she could not use this method yet.
Yu Su had yet to reach the perfected realm.
If she brought it up now, she would no longer have the conditions to set a deal with her senior brother.
She planned to find an excuse in the future.
Wen Chuan’s eyes flashed as he looked at Yu Su.
He had a feeling that Yu Su knew something.
However, he thought strangely that if even someone like him, who had lived for a few hundred years, did not know, how could Yu Su know?
Wen Chuan nodded. “Sure. If you find a way, I’ll agree to one of your requests. You can ask for anything as long as it doesn’t violate morality.”
Actually, Wen Chuan really wanted to go outside the city to take a look.
When he woke up, he realized that the entire world had changed drastically. People’s lifestyles had also changed drastically. He wanted to go out more and broaden his horizons.
At the same time, Wen Chuan had a hunch.
He was imprisoned in Chinatown and his strength could only reach perfection. He could not improve by a single step.
If he wanted to break through, he had to leave this place.
Yu Su said, “Senior Brother, don’t worry. I’ll definitely do my best.”
A request from a metaphysical master could not be measured with money. It was very precious.
She thought of something and chuckled. “Senior Brother, tell me the truth. Are you really Martial Uncle’s disciple?”
Wen Chuan’s strength was enough to establish a sect.
As for her Martial Uncle, he had yet to reach the perfected realm. It was impossible for him to teach a student like Wen Chuan.
Wen Chuan smiled helplessly. “He’s indeed not my master. My master died in that war long ago. I just want to build a good relationship with you through his identity.”
From his appearance, Martial Uncle was only in his forties.
However, Yu Su knew that he had lived for many, many years, even longer than her master.
He had never broken through to the perfected stage, but he had still lived for so long. Yu Su really could not figure it out.
This was an impossible thing.
If he wasn’t hiding his strength.
He might be using sorcery to snatch other people’s luck to extend his lifespan..
