Chapter 1057 Don’t Open Up the Old Accounts
"Ancestor Ye, please don't bring up this old matter. My life is also my life!"
"Old accounts?"
Ye Linglong was stunned for a moment. Why did he use this word?
"It happened a year ago. Of course, it's all old news to me!" Bilian said, then turned back to comfort Heilong: "We are all big bosses. There is no point in bringing this up. Let's not make a fuss about it."
???
When Ye Linglong heard the word "one year", he was stunned for a moment.
Until I entered this nine underworlds and eighteen abysses, time passed by so quickly and I had no idea how it worked. I didn’t know it would pass so quickly!
"Have you been waiting for me for this year?" Ye Linglong asked in surprise.
"That's not the case either. It's just that Black Dragon and his master got together a long time ago. His master used some method to be so fast, while Black Dragon used absolute strength. It doesn't matter if he can understand it or not, as long as he wins in the end."
Bilian sighed.
"Only me, I only learned it one by one, and I was only one month ahead of you. But here comes the question, why are you so slow? You don't look stupider than me."
Ye Linglong knew that his insistence on using his soul power to crack the code had taken a lot of time, but he didn't expect that it took him so long to collect all the leaves that it was slower than Bilian.
But her surprise did not last long, because at this time a long cough came from next door.
"Oh, you should go and see Mr. Du right away. He seems to be dying. He went downstairs every day to wait for you this past year, but he hasn't been downstairs in the past few days. It seems that he is not doing well."
After Bilian finished speaking, Ye Linglong quickly ran to the outside of Du Yuanbo's house. She slowed down her pace and knocked on the door.
"Who is it?"
Although I didn't see him, I could tell from his voice that he sounded much more haggard than before. It seemed that he was almost out of energy.
"It's me."
"Miss Xiaoye, come in quickly!"
Ye Linglong walked into his room and saw that he was sitting in front of the desk and had just put down the pen in his hand.
Although I don't know what he was writing, he wrote a lot, filling up the entire table, and some of the writing was stacked very high.
The wood carvings of his fellow disciples of the Yunyang Sect that he had originally placed on the windows were now all placed on his desk, as if they were accompanying him as he wrote in this alone time.
At that moment, Ye Linglong suddenly felt a little heavy.
There is only one path to becoming an immortal, but everyone's path is different.
"What is Mr. Du writing?"
"Write something for yourself, and leave something for future generations."
Du Yuanbo covered all the papers, stood up and walked in front of Ye Linglong.
"It's been a year since we last met. What happened to you in the Sword Tomb? Why haven't you come back? I often worry that you might have gone there for some reason, but your companions are always very calm. I think they have confidence in you, so I don't worry too much."
"I went to collect leaves, but I went deeper and deeper into the cave, so I didn't come back."
"Oh? What's the situation now?" Du Yuanbo asked, unable to hide the expectation in his eyes.
"As expected, I have collected all of them."
Ye Linglong showed the vine on his wrist to Du Yuanbo.
When he saw it, he was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said yes.
"You really did it. I knew you could do it. Your understanding and talent are the best I have seen in all these years. How could you not do it?"
As he spoke to himself, he couldn't help but feel his eyes turn red. He couldn't suppress the excitement in his heart and he even coughed lightly several times.
"You did it in just one year. I was right."
Ye Linglong was stunned for a moment when he heard this.
Isn't a year a long time? Even Bilian has been completed.
“One year, is that a short time?”
Du Yuanbo nodded.
"In the past two thousand years, there are less than ten people who have managed to walk out of the Fourth Abyss in just one year."
Ye Linglong was stunned. Looking at it this way, isn't Bilian also a super genius?
The eyes of the bald eagle demon are really vicious!
"Since you have already obtained the qualifications to enter the Fifth Abyss, I should also tell you my request clearly. After that, I will give you all the supplies I have stored."
Du Yuanbo sighed.
"Two thousand years ago, a great event occurred in the upper immortal world. The Gonghai Mountain in the east collapsed, and a very powerful and huge monster emerged from the ground.
The monster was completely black, as if it was wrapped in black mist, and it was impossible to tell what it was.
But since it appeared, it began to devour all living things in Gonghai Mountain, and each time it devoured it would become bigger, stronger and more ferocious.
Just as it was about to devour everything in Gonghai Mountain and prepare to continue moving towards the center of the upper cultivation world, our seven major sects completed the alliance, led by the elders and elites of each sect to join in the encirclement and suppression of it, and strive to resolve the matter in Gonghai Mountain.
Although our encirclement and suppression at that time was full of difficulties, it was still carried out smoothly, and we successfully prevented it from leaving Gonghai Mountain and continuing to move towards the center of the upper cultivation world.
And we had it under control by then, so it was only a matter of time before we killed it.
But who knows…”
Having said that, Du Yuanbo clenched his fists, with deep hatred in his eyes.
"A traitor has appeared in the joint encirclement and suppression team."
"traitor?"
"Yes, when we were trying to kill it, someone secretly made a move and released this monster. We approached it without knowing it and were attacked fiercely by it."
Speaking of this, Du Yuanbo's eyes became red again.
"In that battle, we suffered heavy casualties, and many people died. But in the end, those who survived by brute force were unable to escape successfully, and we were swallowed by it.
We struggled for a long time inside its body, and finally found an exit. We left through this exit and eventually all entered the Nine Hells and Eighteen Abysses."
Ye Linglong was stunned.
Why did she feel that this situation was familiar?
When the Fukushima Island in the lower cultivation world turned into a ghost island, after the ghosts killed and cleared out a group of weak ones, the remaining strong ones were dragged away by those ghost beasts.
After fighting and clearing out a group of weak ones, this monster swallowed the strong ones and finally sent them into the Nine Netherworlds and Eighteen Abysses?
Although it may sound a bit far-fetched to compare the two, she just feels that they are inexplicably similar.
"So, the strongest and most talented disciples from the seven major sects back then all went to the Nine Netherworlds and Eighteen Abysses?"
"Yes." Du Yuanbo sighed and said, "I always thought that the appearance of the monster was an accident, and the traitor was just acting out of his own selfish desires, until..."
Du Yuanbo's expression became solemn.
