Volume 1, Chapter 162 There are no immortals in the mortal world.
But you are so strong now. Let’s not talk about when you die. By that time I will have ascended to heaven and how can I protect you?
Besides, you are the best in the world, how could you die?
But if you can kill Wang Changsheng, it's not impossible.
Dongfang Shuo laughed loudly, and then said meaningfully: "My friend, do you know why I never go down the mountain?"
Seeing Dongfang Shuo asking him this, Ye Tingmu quickly came back to his senses.
Then he shook his head blankly.
"Junior doesn't know?"
He was naturally curious about this matter, otherwise he would not have asked Dongfang Qingzhu before.
"I wonder if you have heard that one can become an immortal above the ninth realm."
Ye Tingmu nodded.
"Of course, but I've been looking through ancient books, and the records are vague. Becoming an immortal hasn't happened in 3,000 years. I wonder why you suddenly ask this, senior?"
Dongfang Que sat down again and sighed.
"You may wonder why I put my hope on you. I saw your potential for the future, so I gave you the lightning bolt on your waist."
Ye Tingmu said nothing, but sat down in front of Dongfang Que and listened carefully.
"In fact, my life is coming to an end. The reason I don't leave the mountain is because if I set foot outside this mountain, a thunderstorm will surely strike within three days."
Ye Tingmu’s brows twitched wildly. Thunder tribulation?
Dongfang Shuo continued, "I originally practiced the Thunder Sword Technique, and I have a deeper understanding of thunder. Thirty-five years ago, when I comprehended the Tenth Sword of the Thunder God, I felt the power of the Heavenly Dao, and that pressure was beyond my ability to withstand. That's why I arrived at Mang Mountain. In fact, the entire Mang Mountain you see is a formation, a great formation to avoid disasters."
Ye Tingmu frowned and listened carefully.
His eyes were full of confusion.
Since there is a thunder tribulation, why not overcome it?
But choose to hide.
Dongfang Shuo looked at his face and guessed what he was thinking.
He just sighed.
"Ah...Speaking of it, swordsmen should not be afraid. I have been holding the sword for hundreds of years. I have been unruly all my life. I can be said to have risen rapidly and no one can defeat me. Only then did the Dongfang family achieve its current status. But along the way, I have also made too many enemies."
"That's why I'm afraid. I can't let go of these mundane thoughts. If I undergo the tribulation, I'll surely die, and the Dongfang family will have no one to protect me. That's why I've been hesitant to undergo the tribulation."
Having said this, Dongfang Shuo stopped talking.
His eyes were full of loneliness.
I don’t know whether he was sighing that he had too many concerns, or sighing that he was too lamenting that the Dongfang family had no successor.
Ye Tingmu said seriously: "Senior, I can actually understand what you are thinking."
I am the same.
Once people have family ties, they will have concerns.
You will become anxious, afraid, and cowardly.
However, this also shows that what Dongfang Shuo said was true, he was indeed the best in the world.
What he didn't understand was why Dongfang Shuo said that he would definitely die.
Logically speaking, there is life after death when overcoming tribulation.
Either turn into ashes and enter the cycle of reincarnation, or become an immortal and soar above the nine heavens.
Why is this a situation where Dongfang Shuo is doomed to die?
"Senior, there's something I don't understand. Why do you so clearly say I'll fail?"
Dongfang Shuo had a bitter smile on his face.
"My dear friend, do you know why no immortal has appeared in the East China Sea for 3,000 years?"
Ye Tingmu shook his head.
"I don't know?"
Dongfang Shuo said, "3,000 years ago, becoming an immortal was certainly difficult, but saints did occasionally ascend to heaven. However, 3,000 years ago, something happened. Since then, there have been no immortals among the mortals in the East China Sea!"
Ye Tingmu touched his chin, wondering if the order of heaven was collapsing or something.
However, he still asked, "I wonder what you are referring to, senior?"
Dongfang Shuo raised his cup, took a sip of the clear spring water, moistened his throat, and seemed to be saying that he was tired.
After drinking, he put down the cup in his hand and continued:
"Three thousand years ago, a beast god appeared in the Eastern Wilderness. His name was Niu Batian. He claimed to be the mount of the Three Heavenly Dao Ancestors. Three thousand years ago, when he was overcoming the calamity, he attracted the immortal from heaven. For some reason, the immortal from heaven came down to earth to kill him."
"So, a great battle took place that shocked the East Sea. Niu Batian, with his saintly state, severed an immortal's arm and even summoned a thunder tribulation to his advantage, nearly splitting the heavens. However, he ultimately perished. Since then, the previous heaven, in order to punish this mortal world, has used some unknown means to prevent the heavenly tribulation from falling on this world. Even if it did fall, it wasn't the thunder of the Heavenly Dao, but the thunder of the Immortals. The thunder of the Heavenly Dao can make one an immortal, but this thunder of the Immortals can take lives, the lives of saints."
"From then on, any saint who caused a disaster would die. It has been like this for 3,000 years. My friend, don't be fooled by the fact that there are saints in Jiuzhou. In fact, there are many old guys hiding like me."
At this moment, Ye Tingmu was no longer in the mood to think about Dongfang Shuosuo and the like. His mind was buzzing with feelings.
Niu Batian, the beast god of the Eastern Wilderness, killed an immortal three thousand years ago.
The most important thing is that he said he was the mount of Daozu.
I'm...
The corners of his mouth twitched at the thought.
This guy, can’t be Dahei?
Hiss...If it really is Dahei, then this cow would be extremely awesome.
No, wait, Dongfang Shuo said he fell...
He quickly interrupted Dongfang Shuo's words.
"Senior, is this Niu Batian you mentioned really dead?"
Although Dongfang Shuo was puzzled, he replied: "That's just a rumor. He died in the battle with the immortal. But some people say that he is still alive, but no one has seen him."
Ye Tingmu stared with eyes full of anticipation.
“Is that cow a black cow?”
"It seems so."
Hiss...Ye Tingmu took a breath of cold air.
It is estimated that this Niu Batian is Dahei and there is no escape.
The King of the Eastern Wilderness, Niu Batian, is a beast god who can kill immortals.
Thunder struck the sky, and from then on there were no immortals in the mortal world.
Such a being has been following me for five years.
Wow, this is really awesome.
If Dahei is really Niu Batian, plus Dongfang Shuo, the Thunder Sword Immortal who is known as the number one person in Jiuzhou today.
He felt that he could go to the palace right now, pull the emperor off the throne, and let Feng He sit on it.
Thinking of this, a curve appeared on the corner of his mouth inadvertently.
The look in his eyes changed from shock, confusion and incomprehension to a look of anticipation, yearning and brightness.
Dongfang Shuo was quite confused when he saw him like this. Could it be that this kid was stupid?
He coughed lightly.
“Ahem.”
Ye Tingmu just came back to his senses from his fantasy.
Knowing that he had lost his composure, he quickly straightened his body and said, "Senior, please continue, please continue."
Dongfang Shuo was speechless.
I am a saint talking to you, can't you be serious?
Why......
Although he thought so in his heart, he still said: "Although I set up this formation to block the aura, so that the heaven cannot detect it and naturally cannot send down the thunder, it also cuts off the luck of the Dongfang family. You should know that Qingzhu has had blocked meridians since childhood and cannot practice."
Ye Tingmu did not hide anything and nodded, "Yes, Qingzhu told me."
"Then do you know why I only favor Zhu'er among the hundreds of young people in the East?"
Ye Tingmu frowned, wondering if the reason why Dongfang Qingzhu couldn't be cultivated was because the old man couldn't overcome the tribulation.
For some reason, he instinctively wanted to find out the truth, and was particularly interested in matters related to Dongfang Qingzhu.
"The younger generation would like to hear the details."
