Volume 3: The King of Waste Chapter 366: Divine Weapon Tomb
Passing through the Crimson Gate, Xu Shen felt as if he was sinking into the deep sea, with a brief feeling of suffocation.
This feeling quickly disappeared, and when Xu Shen opened his eyes, he saw that the sky was still dark red in front of him, but beneath the sky, there were strangely shaped debris rising up like small hills.
The pungent stench and the strong, eternal smell of blood made Xu Shen frown slightly.
Xu Shen glanced over and saw Xingjun standing not far in front of him, seemingly in a daze.
"Why are you in such a hurry?" Xu Shen asked in a bad tone.
Xingjun's body stood there motionless, without any response.
Xu Shen felt something strange. He walked to Xing Jun and saw that he was pale and staring blankly ahead.
Xu Shen followed his gaze and saw a young man sitting on the hill in front of him. He had black hair, black eyes, and fair cheeks. He was holding a black fragment in a daze.
As if noticing the two of them, the young man raised his eyes and looked towards them.
"This fluctuation, is there a new person coming?"
Suddenly, a hoarse and old voice came from a depression in the hill nearby.
Xu Shen's gaze focused and he looked over there, and he saw an old man in tattered clothes, like a beggar, sitting in a depression on the hill. His whole body was the same color as the surrounding area, and was covered in dirt.
But the other person's eyes were exceptionally bright, like stars in the dark night, and he looked over with a hint of interest.
Xu Shen didn't expect that there were actually two people in this forbidden place . He was alert and asked, "Who are you?"
"It doesn't matter if you don't know me, but you don't even know him?"
The beggar-like old man said with a hint of joking.
Xu Shen frowned slightly, and before he could ask again, the Star Lord beside him said in a low voice: "He is the monarch."
monarch?
Xu Shen was startled, his pupils contracted slightly, and he looked at the boy with black hair and black eyes.
If you look closely, you will find that the other person's eyes are as calm as water, revealing absolute indifference and clarity, without joy or sadness.
"One of the five monarchs is named Lord Zero!"
Xingjun whispered, "I was lucky enough to meet him once."
Zero Master?
Xu Shen looked at the young man in front of him. It was a very strange code name, but the king’s code name might not be related to his ability. Some codes might even mislead others.
I heard about the Prison Master from Zhou Rui before, and the one in front of me is Lord Zero.
"It seems that there are still people who know what's good." The old man said with a smile.
Xu Shen looked at the young man , and the other party was also looking at the two of them, but Xu Shen could feel that although the other party was staring at them, he did not feel like he was being stared at. The other party's eyes were like emptiness, and he did not have any wariness towards them at all.
"Are you... the young man from Xingchou City?"
Lord Zero seemed to be reminiscing and asked Star Lord.
Xingjun's eyes slightly changed, revealing a somewhat flattered expression, and he quickly nodded and said, "That's right, now I am the mayor of Xingchou City."
Lingzhu nodded slightly and said, "Then what should we do with Xingchou City if you come here? With your strength, I'm afraid it will be difficult to get out of here."
Xingjun was startled and couldn't help but turn his head to look behind him.
The scarlet gate that I had passed through before did not appear in this forbidden place.
The old beggar at the foot of the hill laughed and said, "You must have come through the forbidden door. There is no such thing here. It is only a one-way transmission channel. After all, there is only blood on one side of the door..."
"It seems that you two will have to stay and keep me company."
Xu Shen glanced at Ling Zhu and saw that he didn't seem to have any intention of killing him. He turned to the old beggar and asked, "Who are you? What do you mean by blood on the door? Also, how can we get out of here?"
The old beggar smiled and said, "Young man, you ask too many questions, and I don't like the tone of your questions. Am I obligated to answer you?"
Xu Shen's expression changed slightly. He looked at the other person deeply without saying anything.
Xingjun took a few steps forward, raised his hand and said in greeting: "Old sir, please explain it to us. Maybe we can help each other and get out together."
"Help each other..." The old beggar laughed and said, "Young man, you are good at talking. You should be more respectful to the elderly. I also want to ask you something. Are you two the kings of Dicheng?"
Xingjun glanced at Xu Shen and said politely to the old man, "Yes."
"Have you heard of the Mohist School in the inner city?" asked the old man.
Xing Jun was startled, then nodded: "Of course I have heard of it."
"It seems that Lord Ling did not deceive me." The beggar old man smiled and said, "How is the Mo family now? Is it still one of the seven major families?"
"Yes..." Xing Jun hesitated and said, "Are you the king of Mohism?"
The beggar old man smiled and said, "Yes, it was five hundred years ago. Now, I guess they have long forgotten me. I heard from Master Ling that our Mo family kings have changed for two generations. I don't know whether I am lucky or unlucky to be trapped here and still live to this day."
Xu Shen narrowed his eyes slightly. The old man in front of him was actually the former king of Mohism. If he could be allowed to escape, Mohism would then have three kings.
Star-Lord glanced at Xu Shen with a strange look in his eyes, but he restrained himself. At this moment, even if he made the relationship between Mohist and Xu Shen clear, the old man might not necessarily take action against Xu Shen. After all, the king's temperament was strange and difficult to grasp, not to mention that he had not yet figured out the situation here.
"What is the blood the old man just mentioned?" Xing Jun asked.
“Haven’t you seen the forbidden door? Didn’t you see what color it is? The reason it is crimson is because the door is stained with divine blood. It is because of the divine blood that you can be teleported here.” said the old man.
Xing Jun was stunned, recalling the previous crimson door, and found that the dark red color on it did look like some kind of paint, and this paint was actually divine blood?
"Divine blood? Are you saying that gods exist?" Xu Shen looked at the old man.
The old man glanced at Xu Shen and said, "You want me to ask a question, but you won't even call me old gentleman. Do you think I will answer you?"
Xu Shen narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "We are all kings, is it necessary?"
"So what if they are all kings? Kings are also divided into high and low levels. For example, Lord Ling is also a king, but can you be compared with Lord Ling?"
The old beggar said disdainfully: "Don't even mention Lord Ling. Even if it's me, I can kill you two little guys instantly if I want to. I just spared your lives because you are young and it's really boring here."
Xingjun's eyes moved slightly, and he couldn't help but take a few more steps towards the old man: "Old sir, don't argue with him, he is just like that. You just said you are trapped here, so how can we get out? Is Lord Ling also trapped here?"
The beggar old man sneered and said, "How could Lord Ling be trapped here? He can come and go freely, but we are different. If you want to get out of here, you can only leave if you can also undergo a mental transformation like Lord Ling and transform into a demigod."
"Demigod..."
Xu Shen and Xing Jun both looked at the young man Zero Lord in front of them. The other party's mental power was actually that of a demigod?
“Does God really exist in this world?”
Xu Shen asked Lingzhu: "Is that the realm that the Human Emperor has reached?"
The old beggar exclaimed, "You actually know about the Human Emperor. It seems that you know a lot. The Human Emperor is indeed a god. Above the king, there is God! The ultimate that humans can reach is the king. Above that, there is transcendence, true immortality, which is not affected by ability or time, and has all the power you can imagine."
god……
Xu Shen's eyes flashed. He didn't expect that there really was a being called God.
So, Maeve is a god?
And I have always been...walking with God?
“God does exist.”
The young Lord Zero said to Xu Shen, "In other words, perfect life that surpasses the king does exist. How to name and define this kind of life? We call it God, and the place where you are now is the Tomb of Divine Weapons, which is the place where the weapons left behind by the old gods are."
