The Divine Nine-Dragon Cauldron

Chapter 2283: Chapter 2174, why did he die

Translator: 549690339

At first, Layman Qing Yuan felt that something was amiss and wanted to calm down and ask.

But now, it seemed that he didn’t need to ask anything.

“Thanks to you! I don’t even have a place to live in seclusion!”Layman Qing Yuan’s face suddenly darkened, like the sky that had been splashed with ink.

Shopkeeper Yu was stunned on the spot and asked, “Layman, what do you mean?”

He didn’t understand what scholar Qing Yuan meant at all.

“Humph!”Scholar Qing Yuan snorted heavily, and a scene of a fairyland surrounded by immortal clouds suddenly appeared, enveloping the surroundings.

Manager Yu, who was in the scene, soon noticed that his body was disintegrating and turning into a part of the Fairyland.

This was scholar Qing Yuan’s domain!

Those who were in it would be melted from the inside out by the domain. It was an extremely vicious domain.

Shopkeeper Yu was startled. Seeing that scholar Qing Yuan was serious, he immediately used his domain to resist and shouted, “You’re Crazy!”

He simply didn’t understand if scholar Qing Yuan’s brain had been clamped by a door. How could he attack him?

He even inexplicably said that he was the one who had destroyed his hideout.

“Yes, I’m Crazy! I’m driven crazy!”Scholar Qing Yuan was furious. His domain wasn’t limited to that. He even took out a white fan with only three feathers.

That was his dao artifact!

With a wave of the white fan, an exceptionally cold wind blew past shopkeeper Yu’s body.

His soul suddenly felt a chill, and a portion of it was actually blown away!

That was scholar Qing Yuan’s world-famous dao artifact, the soulless fan!

Once activated, it could invisibly injure one’s soul. It was extremely terrifying.

Yu Xiangdong’s hair stood on end. He felt that his life was in danger, so how could he dare to hold back?

“Open!”Yu Xiangdong shouted angrily as he opened up his domain. The towering shadows of a hundred thousand mountains continued to descend, continuously squeezing scholar Qingyuan’s Fairyland Domain.

With a final pop, the Fairyland Domain was pushed back.

At the same time, Yu Xiangdong fished out a pitch-black stone snake.

This snake was his dao artifact, and its name was life stripping.

After activating it, it could quickly burrow into the enemy’s body and swallow them layer by layer from the inside out. It was as if it was stripping away the enemy’s life. It was abnormally vicious.

Hiss —

The venomous snake slithered over and directly burrowed into scholar Qingyuan’s body, ignoring the defensive magical equipment all over his body.

Ah —

In an instant, scholar Qingyuan let out a miserable cry.

It was obvious that he had already started to devour scholar Qingyuan’s flesh and blood.

This move not only did not make scholar Qingyuan cower, but it also infuriated him even more.

Shopkeeper Yu had controlled his child for no reason and had almost killed him. Now, he was even going to kill him!

Gritting his teeth, scholar Qingyuan shouted angrily, “You Die!”

As he activated his dao tool, he took out a steel needle with his other hand.

The steel needle was snow-white in color and gave off a chilling aura.

Seeing this object, Yu Xiangdong’s pupils constricted. “The nine-five heavens cold needle personally bestowed by His Majesty the King?”

The nine-five heavens cold needle was refined from the most famous extreme cold ice of the glazed era civilization.

The number of this ice in the entire glazed tile civilization was no less than three Jin. It had long been divided among several powerful forces of the civilization.

The Eternal Imperial Kingdom obtained ten taels of it.

All of it was refined by the monarch into the nine-five heavens cold needle. There was a total of ninety-nine needles.

Once it was released, it would never turn back unless it took the enemy’s life!

And the number one cold poison in the world contained within this needle. Once it stabbed someone, not to mention an expert of the family head level, even an existence of a higher level would be instantly poisoned to death by the cold poison and turned into ice shards.

Yu Xiangdong had never expected that one of the most important national magical equipment of the royal family would be given to layman Qingyuan.

Princess Qianyue must have secretly given it to him!

Yu Xiangdong felt a chill run down his spine. He quickly said, “Layman, calm down. I really don’t know what I’ve done wrong!”

He quickly took his life out of his body to show that he wanted to negotiate peacefully.

Layman Qing Yuan raised his eyebrows slightly. “Oh? It has nothing to do with you?”

He also put away his Taoist artifact.

Seeing that layman Qing Yuan had finally calmed down and was ready to talk properly, Yu Xiangdong heaved a sigh of relief and smiled bitterly in his heart. Why did he have to do that?

He had been talking nicely since the beginning. Why did he have to do that?

However, in the next moment, a cunning and ferocious look appeared on layman Qing Yuan’s seemingly gentle face. “Who would believe it?”

He didn’t believe that it was such a coincidence!

He was ambushed by the boy earlier and almost lost his life. Then, he rushed toward the place where he was hiding.

No matter how he looked at it, Yu Xiangdong was the one who went over to confirm whether he was dead or not, right?

Yu Xiangdong was on guard and retreated in other directions without thinking. He cursed angrily, “Old lunatic!”

How Dare You Scold Me? Scholar Qing Yuan’s killing intent Rose. The nine-five heavens cold needle in his hand turned into a faint cold light and flew out in an instant.

After a few blinks of the eye, he heard a cracking sound coming from the end of the world.

Layman Qingyuan rushed over to take a look. An ice sculpture was falling from the sky onto the ground and then turned into ice shards.

Under the effect of the nine-five heavens cold needle, the flesh and blood in his body were all poisoned into ice..

Whoosh —

The nine-five heavens cold needle returned to layman Qingyuan’s palm with a spin.

He snorted in disdain before turning around and leaving with a clear mind.

At that time.

Heavenly Royal Ridge.

It was located at the border between the nightless imperial kingdom and the neighboring power, the Palace of light.

The Palace of Light and the nightless Imperial Kingdom were both forces of the glaze civilization, and they were close to each other.

In terms of overall strength, the Palace of light was far stronger than the nightless Imperial Kingdom.

In every generation, the palace of light would produce an extremely powerful and peerless genius of the current Gaia era.

In the past, in the sparring sessions of the same generation, the members of the nightless imperial kingdom would often be crushed.

Although the younger generation of the nightless imperial kingdom would often use this as a humiliation and work hard to change such an unchanging disadvantage.

However, for tens of millions of years, the martial arts exchange that happened once every few years ended in the nightless Imperial Kingdom’s crushing defeat.

The Heavenly Imperial Ridge was the dividing line between the two factions.

Standing on the ridge, Su Yu gazed at the Palace of light.

Everywhere he looked was dotted with ice crystals. Under the refraction of sunlight, they emitted an exceptionally dazzling light.

This was how the Palace of light came to be.

However, what he was more concerned about was a Taoist temple on the heavenly imperial ridge.

The Taoist temple was dilapidated and small. There were only five or six small halls inside.

In addition, the Heavenly Imperial Ridge was extremely high. Along the way, there were incomparably cold squalls. Without the cultivation of a heaven and earth emperor, one might not be able to easily climb the mountain.

Therefore, there were no visitors in the Taoist temple.

Looking at the Lonely Taoist temple, Su Yu did not quite believe that there would be an invitation from the nightless Imperial Kingdom here?

If he had not come here strictly according to the information route, Su Yu would have found it hard to believe.

However, the information from the Star Alliance Chamber of Commerce had never been false.

With his hands behind his back, he stepped into the Taoist temple.

Inside the Taoist temple, an old man wearing a simple Taoist robe was bending his waist, cleaning the snow in front of the hall.

His movements were slow and staggering, as if he was about to die.

Hearing the footsteps, the old priest turned around, revealing a face that had been burned by a great fire. The remnants of the face were all over the place, making it very frightening.

“An honored guest has arrived.”The old priest put down his broom and gave a Taoist salute.

Su Yu returned the salute and said, “I would like to attend the banquet of the nightless Imperial Kingdom. Please give me some guidance, Old Priest.”

The report said that there was a way to obtain this place.

Presumably, it was to exchange it with dao coins or other magical treasures or pills?

The old priest’s eyes were calm and silent. He said, “Young Master, please come with me.”

He led Su Yu to the backyard of the Taoist temple.

The backyard was barren, and the grass was in the sky. It seemed that no one was taking care of it.

In the wild grass, an unremarkable old tomb came into view.

“Table natural tomb”

The tombstone only recorded the names of the deceased. Other than that, there was no other information.

Who was the person who set up the Tombstone? When was the tombstone set up? There was no information on who the deceased was.

To Su Yu’s surprise, there was a young man sitting cross-legged on both sides of the old tomb.

They were sitting on the bone-chilling ice and deep in thought. Their bodies were also covered by the cold snow.

“I do have an invitation to the banquet, and I’m willing to give it to others. The premise is that I can answer one question.”The old Taoist stared at the tombstone with a complicated expression.

Su Yu nodded. “Please Ask.”

The old Taoist folded his hands in his sleeves and looked far away, as if he had arrived in the distant past.

“Why do people die?”

Birth, aging, illness, and death were all part of the cycle of Heaven and earth.

Who Wouldn’t die?

Who Wouldn’t die?

Even the stone fetus of the sacred mountain couldn’t escape the end of death.

If there was life, there would be death!

If there was existence, there would be death!

No one was an exception!

Su Yu wanted to answer this question, but when the words reached his mouth, he slowly shut them.

His eyes were filled with confusion.

Blaming the cycle of heaven was only on the surface of the problem and didn’t go deep into the essence of the problem.

Why did humans die?

“Please allow me to think about it for three days,”Su Yu said.

The old priest nodded. “Please do.”

Hence, Su Yu sat in front of the grave with the other two and pondered over the mystery.

Su Yu caught a group of bugs and placed them in a larger container, providing them with enough food.

Not only that, he continued to instil vitality into them, ensuring that no bugs would die due to their own exhaustion.

Then, they activated time acceleration!

Under the 500 times time acceleration state, the bugs multiplied rapidly, generation after generation, with no deaths in between.

Theoretically speaking, the bugs should have reached an unprecedented scale, at least far beyond the capacity of the container.

However, they did not!

Because there was limited space to move around, in order to survive, the strong bugs would kill the weak bugs, and so on.

Under the state of time acceleration, the number of bugs remained at a constant number for three years.

Looking at this scene, Su Yu had an epiphany.

Huala —

At this moment, the two men who were meditating on both sides of the old tomb woke up from their meditative state.

Both of them stared at Su Yu, who was standing opposite them. They did not expect that there would be a third person besides them.

From the looks of it, he was probably thinking about the same question as them.

“For this person to be able to come here, he must be here for the Eternal Nightless Empire’s invitation.”The man on the right had gentle facial features, and his voice was also very gentle, he said with some surprise, “The strange thing is that since he can afford to pay 100 million dao dollars for information, his status should not be low. It should not be difficult for him to obtain an invitation.”

The other man was a little arrogant and said indifferently, “Wealth is not equal to status. It is not new for some lucky people to get a large amount of wealth by accident.”

As he said that, he shifted his gaze and walked to the front hall to look for the old priest.
