Chapter 1958: Chapter 1527 Gu Jin: Who Asked Your Age? Chapter 1958: Chapter 1527 Gu Jin: Who Asked Your Age? Jiang Hao paid no mind to the Blood Demon beneath his feet as he walked step by step into its depths.
He wasn't certain of the current state of Gu Jin.
But caution was warranted.
Should the other party lash out unexpectedly, he would need to flee posthaste.
It's just that he wasn't sure how to defuse such a crisis.
Whether the other was benevolent or malicious was of utmost importance.
If benevolent, there would be no issue.
But if malicious, that would be quite perilous.
After a short while,
Jiang Hao once again laid eyes on the figure of Gu Jin.
Still as a statue, there was no sense of the vitality of a living being.
However, after his arrival, the other quickly returned to normalcy, standing still with his hands behind his back.
Thus with his back to Jiang Hao.
“Senior?” Jiang Hao bowed respectfully.
Though in the era of Ancient and Modern Times, he was the Great Elder, after returning, he still respectfully addressed the other as senior.
The difference in age was there, after all.
“You shouldn't have come,” came the voice of Gu Jin.
Carrying an endless vicissitude.
Jiang Hao was puzzled: “What does senior mean?”
“Since you've survived, why bother coming here?” Gu Jin added.
Jiang Hao contemplated briefly and replied, “Is it because I had a confrontation with Cheng Yun? That battle was indeed tough; I won against the odds.”
Gu Jin turned to look at Jiang Hao and said, “Let's talk about the weather outside. When you came, was it raining?”
“No,” Jiang Hao shook his head and said:
“But when senior's name dissipated, it did rain.
“It's hard to imagine that the opponent was so powerful that even my Tao was eroded.
“Now, I am nothing more than an ordinary fellow disciple.”
“Ordinary fellow disciple? Aren't you Daluo?” Gu Jin looked at Jiang Hao and asked.
“Yes, but if it indeed comes to a struggle, Daluo should still be able to cope to some extent; the junior still has his blade,” Jiang Hao responded.
Gu Jin was silent for a moment before saying, “Let's continue talking about the weather.”
“Senior seems to have become stronger,” Jiang Hao ventured.
“My name was killed by you, of course, I've gotten stronger,” Gu Jin said earnestly, “Sometimes, a name bears the weight of great luck, and although it seems beneficial, it's also a restraint.
“Without a name, I'm naturally free now.
“Free from those restraints.
“Yet, I'm still unable to leave this place.
“I've turned into a prison, trapping him as well as myself.
“Perhaps one day I'll be able to leave, and by then I should be comparatively stronger.”
“Indeed, senior's strength far exceeds all worldly beings, and no one could possibly catch up. The junior has cultivated for four hundred and fifty years and has never seen a being as mighty as senior,” Jiang Hao said admiringly.
Gu Jin: “….”
Who asked about your age?
Why are you mentioning these for no reason?
“I'm here to seek advice on some matters from senior,” Jiang Hao said.
“Go ahead, although I might not be able to answer you. You've experienced quite a lot recently,” Gu Jin stated.
“Not too much experience; I just know of someone's existence, but not the specifics.
“So far, I still haven't found the Seeker,” Jiang Hao said, shaking his head.
Pondering for a moment, he then asked, “I wanted to inquire whether senior might be able to open this.”
As he spoke, Jiang Hao took out the Ominous Coffin.
Upon seeing the coffin, Gu Jin was slightly surprised: “You still have this thing? How did you get inside?
“Besides, I can't open it.”
“Senior can't open it either?” Jiang Hao was a little surprised.
“It's not that I can't open it, but it can't be opened normally. If forcefully opened, you yourself can manage to do so,” Gu Jin commented, looking at the coffin, “This is the Ominous Coffin; the dead cannot open it.
“The living of this world cannot open it.
“Only corpse collectors or those living in that area can normally open it.
“Of course, it's better to have the corpse collector open it.
“But usually, corpse collectors won't bother with you.
“Moreover, corpse collectors aren't a constant; a new one arrives with each great era, they rotate in turn.
“So even if you've met a corpse collector in past ages and left something for later use, it wouldn't be very effective.
“After all, this is a new era, and the corpse collectors from those times have all been replaced.”
Jiang Hao nodded; this made things a lot easier to handle.
As for the corpse collector…
As luck would have it, as long as this era doesn't end, the corpse collector shouldn't change.
And the current corpse collector is indeed an acquaintance.
Asking for their help should be no problem.
Even if problems arise, there's an alternative.
But the only way is to enter that place.
“Senior, do you know how to gain entry to that place?” Jiang Hao asked.
“It used to be quite easy, but after the establishment of the Supreme Immortal Court, it's become difficult.
“You could try your luck in various special places.
“This world is vast and boundless, full of wondrous sites,” Gu Jin said.
Jiang Hao knew that entering that place now would not be easy.
“Of course, with certain special objects, you could also be guided there.
“The stranger and more enigmatic the place, the higher the probability,” Gu Jin commented.
Jiang Hao knew that the other was referring to the Corpse Realm Flower.
That place was indeed eerie.
Moreover, beneath its sea lay endless caskets, suppressing something unknown.
But it seemed like one place, yet not one place at the same time.
Jiang Hao had ventured into the Corpse Sea before, but it did not give him a feeling of oblivion.
Additionally, it seemed that the Charm Goddess might also reside below.
Without a sense of being forgotten.
Therefore, the location of the caskets must be somewhat different from that place.
It was also a shame that he did not encounter the Old Man Corpse Sea this time.
Maybe the other party would have known quite a lot.
Jiang Hao contemplated and realized there were many things he had not yet fathomed, uncertain of when there would be an end.
He could only lay low for the time being and enhance his strength.
However…
He needs to find an opportunity to delve deeper into the Devil's Den.
