Realizing This Is Wuxia World After Cultivating For 300 Years
Chapter 255
Sad People, Death Surely
***
Ye Han suddenly spoke, causing Li Cheng, who had just finished explaining, to be stunned.
Including Cui Heng, everyone present looked at Ye Han.
"Speak then." Cui Heng smiled.
"If I tell you, can you save my life?" Ye Han turned his head to look at Cui Heng and asked frankly.
He seemed to feel that he had a certain value and actually started bidding. “I know many secrets of the Imperial Palace of Plague, and I also know the secrets of the Thousand Plague Umbrella. As long as you promise to let me go, I'll definitely tell you everything I know.
"How dare you!"
Pei Qingshu shouted furiously. The blood on his body was boiling, and his gaze towards Ye Han was filled with killing intent. In his opinion, Ye Han had no respect for Cui Heng and this was inexcusable.
"No need to be angry." Cui Heng waved his hand gently and looked at Ye Han with interest. There was still a faint smile on his face. "Are you so confident that I can't force you to talk?"
"I ..." Ye Han opened his mouth, as if he wanted to argue, but in the end, he did not dare to say it. In the end, he lowered his head dejectedly and said, "I'll talk."
The story is not melodramatic, but it is also not novel.
Ye Han was indeed discovered by the Sect Master of the Imperial Palace of Plague by chance and accepted as a disciple. However, the reason why he was carefully nurtured was not to become his successor.
After all, the Sect Master of Plague Imperial Palace had become a Sage not long after receiving Ye Han as his disciple. His life became very long. Even if Ye Han lived to the limit of the Limitless Golden God, he would not be able to surpass him.
The true purpose of the Sect Master of the Plague Imperial Palace was very simple. After nurturing Ye Han, he could legitimately let her make contact with the Sage Armament in the palace.
This was to complete the maintenance of the Sage Armament and secretly increase the power of the Sage Armament.
Ye Han, who was called the Holy Son, was actually only food for the Thousand Plague Umbrella. Therefore, after coming into contact with the Thousand Plague Umbrella, his cultivation never increased.
He had become a Limitless Golden God over 3,000 years ago, and he was a Limitless Golden God who was not even 300 years old yet.
But now, let alone breaking through to a higher level, his cultivation realm had not improved at all.
He was still a Limitless Golden God.
It was really stagnant.
It was precisely because the Thousand Plague Umbrella was constantly absorbing its strength that it could not cultivate normally at all, let alone obtain any improvement.
Actually, Ye Han discovered this not long after he made contact with the Thousand Plague Umbrella. However, he did not think too much at first and only thought that this was a necessary process for the Limitless Golden God to fuse with the Sage Armament.
However, as time passed, he realized that the power absorbed by the Thousand Plague Umbrella was increasing. It had even reached a terrifying level where if he did not cultivate hard, his cultivation would probably retreat.
Ye Han became panicked because of this, so he went to ask his master. At that moment, the Sect Master of Plague Imperial Palace, who was already a Sage, only gave him a careless answer.
Then, the Sect Master of Plague Imperial Palace gave him a simple mission. He would go to the stars outside the Five Views Realm to collect precious ores. When he returned, he would be rewarded with a precious pill that could replace the loss of strength absorbed by the Sage Armament.
Back then, Ye Han trusted his master completely. He did not think too much about it and left Chongyang with the Thousand Plague Umbrella.
However, when he returned to the Five Views Realm, he heard the news that the Holy Son of the Plague Imperial Palace had stolen the Sage Armament and defected. The Imperial Palace of Plague had issued a search order for him and the entire Five Views Realm was chasing after him.
This sudden situation shocked Ye Han, but he quickly found the reason.
The purpose of the Plague Imperial Palace was very clear. It made him unable to leave the Thousand Plague Umbrella and had to take it with him.
Otherwise, he would have been arrested and even lost his freedom.
As long as he brought the Thousand Plague Umbrella with him, his strength would continue to be absorbed and he would be forced to nurture this Sage Armament.
This act called stealing the Sage Armament and defecting might have been arranged long ago.
After all, if the Holy Son was sucked dry by the Sage Armament, it would be difficult to explain.
However, it did not matter if it was the Holy Son who stole the Sage Armament and fled.
Moreover, as the Holy Son who had stolen the Sage Armament and defected, even if Ye Han had the intention to expose the Imperial Palace of Plague, no one would believe him.
From the very beginning, the Imperial Palace of Plague was in an invincible position.
When Ye Han's age ran out or the Plague Imperial Palace no longer planned to let him nurture the Thousand Plague Umbrella.
They would naturally take back this Sage Armament that had been extremely well maintained.
If he was still not dead by then, there would most likely be a scene of "traitors finally being captured after a thousand-year chase".
After hearing Ye Han's explanation, everyone fell silent.
Especially Li Cheng and Li Wei. They had heard Ye Han's story since they were young, but they had not expected the truth to be like this.
This is actually a pathetic person.
Cui Heng frowned and thought hard. Then, he slightly nodded and said, “There is a secret crack that absorbs the user's essence energy on that Thousand Plague Umbrella. However, I fear this essence is not used to nurture the Thousand Plague Umbrella itself.. ”.
The material is not gold or jade. It was completely gold and was about three inches long. There was a very intricate pattern engraved on it, and it looked very beautiful.
Cui Heng asked, "Ye Han, do you know about this?"
"Is this the key to the Umbrella of a Thousand Plague?" Ye Han looked at it carefully and shook his head. “I don't know about that. I didn't even know that there was a key in the Thousand Plague Umbrella. Uh, that's not true. How do I know that this is the key?”
At this moment, the others also looked at the key in surprise.
"What the hell is going on? Why do I know that this is key as soon as I see it?
"This form of thing is not enough for people to instantly determine that it is the key, but why do I know right away that it is the key?"
“Your Eternal Majesty, this, what happened? Could this key be an incredible treasure?”
…
.
Everyone present discovered the uniqueness of this key and was very surprised.
They have never experienced the same situation.
"This is a rather mysterious technique." Cui Heng did not explain much and continued to say to Ye Han, “If I am not mistaken, the sucked up power is not used to nurture the Thousand Plague Umbrella, but to preserve this key. Do you know the origin of Umbrella of Thousand Plague?”
"This is actually for this key ?!" Ye Han's facial expression immediately became very complicated. He muttered, "They want to hurt me just for this key!"
However, his face was filled with joy again. He just laughed out loud. “Hahaha, I get it, I get it. This key was an opportunity for the old man to break through to a higher realm!
Now, he would never be able to obtain this key. He would never be able to reach the Peak of the Sixth Realm. Good, very good! Ha ha ha ha!"
The old man he was talking about should be the Sect Master of the Plague Imperial Palace, a Sage in the Myriad Techniques Return to One Realm.
"There's no rush to be happy." Cui Heng waved his hand gently and continued to ask, "Do you know the origin of this Thousand Plague Umbrella?"
“This is the Sage Armament Ancestor of Plague Imperial Palace. The exact origin is unknown." Ye Han shook his head gently and said, “120,000 years ago, the Imperial Palace of Plague ended their long journey between the starry skies and migrated to the Chongyang Star.
“At that time, Plague Imperial Palace had three Sage Armaments. The Umbrella of a Thousand Plague was one of them. It was considered the oldest Sage Armament in the Imperial Palace of Plague. This is recorded in the book Plague Imperial Palace.”
"120,000 years ago?" Cui Heng raised his eyebrows slightly.
This period of time is really too long.
After breaking through to the Peak of the Nascent Soul realm, he had only extended his lifespan by 129,600 years.
After an Immortal cultivator entered the Nascent Soul realm, every time they broke through to the small world, the lifespan of their body would increase tremendously. For example, breaking through to the Intermediate-stage Newborn Soul realm would extend their lifespan by up to 36,000 years, and breaking through to the Late-stage Nascent Soul realm would extend their lifespan by up to 48,000 years. In theory, their age limit is 360,000 years.
Hundreds of thousands of years is a long time, enough to change things, even for a planet.
Before this, the problem with the longest history Cui Heng had ever heard of was that 10,000 years ago, the Dao God had descended to the Daozhou Star with 35 Golden Gods.
He had not expected to hear anything that reached 120,000 years ago.
“What about before they go to Chongyang Star? Where is the Imperial Palace of Plague?” Cui Heng asked again.
"I'm not sure." Ye Han shook his head and said, “History before coming to the Chongyang Star is the sect's greatest secret. It's not written in the books. Only the previous Sect Master was qualified to know.”
"I understand ..." Cui Heng pondered and nodded slightly. "Well, it looks like I have to travel to Plague Imperial Palace.”
"Your Eternal Majesty, Your Eternal Majesty!" Ye Han revealed an excited expression upon hearing this. He hurriedly said, "If Your Majesty wants to deal with the Imperial Palace of Plague, I am willing to do my best to help you."
"That's not necessary." Cui Heng shook his head and said to Pei Qingshu and Li Mingqiong, “Take him away. Torture him and find out everything he knows, including the situation of the Imperial Palace of Plague, his legacy, his secrets, and the knowledge of his 3,000 years of life.
I'll give you the power of Dharmic to strip away one's Eternal True Essence. Once you're done asking, give him a quick death. This could be considered a leniency.”
He never planned to forgive Ye Han.
This man had spread the plague in Yongzhou and killed many people. It wouldn't be too much to cut it into pieces. It is impossible to let him live.
Ye Han was a little surprised when he heard this. Then, he smiled bitterly and actually became a little relaxed. He bowed to Cui Heng with great respect. "Your Eternal Majesty, thank you."
Then, without needing Pei Qingshu and Li Mingqiong to escort him, he followed the two of them out of the inner hall.
Such a change made everyone present sigh.
Especially Li Cheng and Li Wei. They saw the figure of Ye Han's departure and never expected this legendary figure to have such an end.
However, it was still an honor to die at the hands of Eternal Lord Cui.
"Your names are Li Cheng and Li Wei, right?"
At this moment, Cui Heng's voice suddenly entered their ears.
The brothers immediately shivered and hurriedly turned around.
They saw Cui Heng staring at them with a smile and asked, "Are you Li Fa's descendant, here for revenge?"
