Dark Blood Age

Chapter 521: Chapter 521

Chu Yunsheng suddenly raised his head in shock. He knew what Ding Yan was talking about. They knew he was dying.

He always thought that the collapse of zero-dimensional space could only be noticed by the people that were as powerful as the Senior Practitioner. No one on earth would know about this thing apart from himself at the moment. But he did not expect that before he disappeared, someone had already guessed it from the side information, and there was more than one person knew about it! At least, besides the person Ding Yan mentioned, Ding Yan also knew about it!

Chu Yunsheng tried his best to keep his poker face. He couldn’t tell if Ding Yan really knew about it, or he was simply just testing him, and trying to get more secrets out of him.

This was very possible!

“I don’t quite understand what you mean.” Chu Yunsheng took out a new cigarette that Schafer had given to him before and lit it up. He said it while tapping the paper.

Ding Yan paused for a second. His brows were raised slightly as he continued to say, “We need your swarm. It is the best way to fight the god’s army at present, and Huan is willing to exchange with you at the cost of killing some of the heaven’s messengers that you hate the most.”

On the paper, he wrote, “Huan, Revival, We.” And then on these names, he drew three circles and on the side of the circles he commented,

“Huan, an ancient pure-bred fire race.”

“Revival, a method to restore life. But it will lose a lot of genetic information. However, some of the memories can still be recovered.”

“We, their direct descendants, inherited only a part of their awakened genetic information and we didn’t inherit any memories.”

Then he took another look at Chu Yunsheng and continued to talk about the swarm. With a blue pen in his hand, he drew a bigger circle on the three small circles of “Huan”, “revival” and “we”. And then outside the bigger circle, he drew a cross, and quickly commented on the paper,

“This is the man, who does not belong to any of those circles, whose origin is extremely mysterious. He is also extremely smart and knowledgeable. And his way of thinking has completely freed from the lower dimension’s restraint.

You probably do not understand that everyone can increase their strength to the fourth-dimension, but our way of thinking is still trapped in the lower dimension. It includes you. Do you remember the black monolith in Jin Ling City? If it hadn’t been for its influence on my brain and body at that time, there is no way that I would have been able to compete with that person’s wisdom!

That person is by no means a human, and that person’s purpose, I can finally determine it just now. The person’s purpose is you!

That should be your war!”

…

Chu Yunsheng sat up vigilantly and thought quickly whether Ding Yan was still lying at this moment.

However, if Ding Yan wanted to deceive him, why would he want to ruin Huan’s plan? What good could it do to him? They were both from the fire race, this did not make any sense.

However, to find out this, it required a high level of judgment ability, but unfortunately, this was something Chu Yunsheng did not have. Unless he let Shang swallow Ding Yan.

In limited time, Chu Yunsheng could only think of two possibilities.

Firstly, Ding Yan was trying to fool him, and drawing his attention to the person whom Shang had just discovered. And the reason why could Shang discover it was, that it had been deliberately arranged by Ding Yan. Otherwise, according to Ding Yan, if that person was very smart, and why would he want to expose himself?

This was one of the possibilities.

There was another one, which was also very likely. Ding Yan’s words were half-true and half-false.

For a moment, Chu Yunsheng couldn’t judge which one was correct. He had too little information.

“Duo Neng Race is not Fire Race, of course, they are willing to sacrifice them.” Chu Yunsheng didn’t think too long. Thinking something that he would never be able to find out its answer was just wasting his time.

“That… I have heard Huan talking about it before. Duo Neng race is not the same as the other five races. It was a race that appeared a long time ago, during the time when they had a war with those god’s warriors. They hoped that they could use other methods, such as technologies to fight those god’s warriors’ spiritual control. In terms of what they could do, I think you know better than me, after all, you fought with them in the yellow mountain. So I will not make too much comment on this matter…”

On the paper, Ding Yan wrote, “Chu, believe it or not, that’s the truth. Twenty years ago, after that person confirmed your identity in Jing Ji island, it went to the old capital. Because of its suggestion, Duo Neng Race and Chu Clan successfully lured you to that island. Now those fools of Yun Sect still regard that person as their secret weapon.

Chu, I’m not here to give you any excuses today, nor to beg for forgiveness. You’ve been living in your own world for the whole time and refusing to acknowledge reality. This is the dark age. Everyone has to bear tremendous pain and sadness, you are not the only one.

I have my responsibility, and you have yours. However, have you ever thought that what caused everything that happened to you? Have you ever thought that what the book gave to you, might not just be power?

This world is very fair and everything comes at a price.

You enjoy the power that was given by it but refuse to bear its costs. This is the root of your pain.

We are all old now. We are no longer at the age where we could do anything we like. Chu, if you still act like the old days. You will never be able to save yourself.

I know you’re looking for the resistance force. If the thing that was left by the Atlantean could really help you, I will help you in secret as well. Edgar is there too. If he wakes up, he’ll tell you what I’m saying is true or not.

You probably did not pay attention to it. You might think that it was coincident that you could meet someone from the resistance force. But without our secret arrangement, with their little force, they would never be able to meet you.

If you want to kill me, you can do it now, or at any time you like. I will wait for you because you saved my life. But I will also resist because I have my responsibility, I owe you my life, not the life of the whole Jin Ling City, if I died, sooner or later, they will become the slaves and guinea pigs of Huan or other people like him.

Indeed you have saved a lot of people in Jin Ling city in the old days. But Jin Ling City has already paid a heavy price for protecting Auntie Chu’s family. We have lost countless people at that time. If you still want to kill them to vent your hatred, we will also fight you to death!

Auntie Chu and your cousins were all very kind-hearted people. They chose to commit suicide because they didn’t want to see more people die for them. If you want to hate, then just hate me, because only I know that they will commit suicide…

Chu, you don’t know where we’ve been to! And what we have been through.

Even I myself is still not sure that the place that we have been sent to was the insect’s world or not.

Most of the stories you heard outside were deliberately made up by us, because we never dared to leave Jin Ling City at that time.

That place was filled with dead creatures. Like a graveyard, it was extremely cold. Even the insects that we saw, were also struggling to survive there!

Af if they were scared of something, many insects desperately wanted to take over the city, so they could hide inside the city. It was at the most critical moment, we were helped by a lost giant, who was searching for souls in that graveyard-like place. However, the help was not free, it was at the cost of a hundred thousand lives!

All the people who knew about it in Jin Ling City were killed by me later on. Do you know why?

Because when facing those frantic insects’ swarms, it only swung the sword once! And it was exactly like what you did in Shu Du city!

So Chu, this is not your war!

Lastly, if you have time, talk to Yao Xiang. Since Jing Tian’s death, he has been living in guilt and pain just like you. Everyone else has married and already has children. Only he is still guarding the house Jing Tian once lived in. It has been twenty years already.

His mind is already on the verge of collapsing, and I’m afraid that after he met you this time, he’ll commit suicide…”
