Legend of Swordsman

Chapter 5699 Inquiry

Just like Qishen, Jian Wushuang also didn’t want to face the prospect of losing his Origin Source.

Of course, looking at it now, Qishen had another plan in mind.

However, Jian Wushuang didn’t know exactly what the other party was scheming.

If Qishen succeeded, it would probably be an unprecedented disaster.

Reviving the Scattered Tribulation!

That wasn’t something that could be accomplished simply by injecting Life power.

What was needed was the source, not just infinite Life power.

Jian Wushuang deeply understood this point.

In the future, when he had enough strength to return to Qishen Temple, he must explore Qishen’s scheme.

“Well, I won’t disturb you anymore. But Nephew Wushuang, come with me for a moment. I have some things to arrange!” Elder Muchen stood up, preparing to leave with Jian Wushuang.

Wu Li also had no objections. After sending the two out, he returned to the mansion with a sense of satisfaction, using a hidden teleportation array to leave the capital directly and return to the Wu family.

Because his trump card was hidden there!

On Jian Wushuang’s side, he followed Elder Muchen to the Wood King’s Mansion.

The two found a quaint and elegant courtyard, with maidservants serving, and outside the pavilion, there was a tranquil lake.

“Nephew Wushuang, just say whatever you need to say!” Elder Muchen waved his hand to dismiss the maidservant, then continued, “We’re practically family now. If there’s anything you want to hide from Wu Li, you can tell me anytime!”

Jian Wushuang smiled with narrowed eyes.

In the mansion of the Wu family, he communicated with Elder Muchen and asked him to take him away from the Wu mansion.

At such a critical moment, leaving alone might arouse suspicion from Wu Li, so he asked Elder Muchen to take him out and also tried to get closer to him.

He wanted to inquire about the two Emperors related to the power of Death.

“This time, thanks to Elder Muchen, I have something in mind, I want to discuss it with that uncle of mine…” Jian Wushuang’s careful weaving of words captivated Elder Muchen.

At the end of Jian Wushuang’s recounting, Elder Muchen reacted immediately.

“What?” he exclaimed.

“You encountered that kind of power in the Outer Domain?” Elder Muchen couldn’t believe it.

Since both of those Emperors were brought by him, Jian Wushuang decided to reveal the matter after withholding it, and explained the situation to Elder Muchen.

Elder Muchen also understood what that kind of power represented, hence his astonishment.

“So, Elder Muchen also knows!” Jian Wushuang’s heart stirred, realizing there were things he didn’t know.

Now, it remained to be seen if he could explode with more information this time.

Elder Muchen settled back down, reclining in his chair, recalling the words of Emperor Fengchen, and without any concealment, he recounted everything.

He had thought Jian Wushuang already knew, so he spoke openly.

Jian Wushuang, however, exclaimed in amazement, “Indeed, my speculation was correct. There must be someone manipulating behind these two!”

From Elder Muchen, Jian Wushuang learned about the secret of the power of Death in the Ancient Moon Spacetime.

This secret was known to very few people, not even some in the Tribulation Realm knew about it.

Only the leaders of some major forces were aware of it.

Emperor Fengchen also learned about it from the ancestor of the royal family of Yue Kingdom.

The power of Death in the Ancient Moon Spacetime was not called the power of Death.

It was called the power of Annihilation.

When the Celestial Maiden fell, there was an instance of the power of Annihilation.

That time marked the peak of the Tribulation Realm in the Ancient Moon Spacetime, and it was the closest they came to death.

The power of Annihilation appeared.

The Nine Heavens and Ten Lands fell into a dire situation.

Among the Ten Lands, three continents became ruins.

Only eight major sects remained, along with some hidden realms, while the rest were all destroyed, leaving only rubble behind.

In the Nine Heavens, cracks began to appear everywhere.

Both in scope and heritage, they suffered significant impacts.

Many people didn’t know why these ruins appeared, thinking it was always like that.

In reality, it was the emergence of the power of Annihilation.

Subsequent occurrences had happened before, but none were as terrifying, with much less destruction.

It wasn’t until now that the power of power of Annihilation completely disappeared, although occasionally, people would discover remnants of Death power in the ruins of some fallen spacetimes, but it was only remnants.

Some people sought to grasp this power, only to find that once tainted, it would devour the vitality within them, requiring countless Life power to expel.

Afterward, no one dared to touch this power again.

Especially for those who had survived tribulations, their vitality was already limited, making it incredibly difficult to recover. Once exposed to the Death power, there was a risk of falling into a deep slumber or even extinction.

Jian Wushuang sighed inwardly; if Mie Sheng were to arrive here, he would probably laugh himself awake from dreaming.

He controlled the existence of Death power, even though his strength was only at the Half-Step Seven Tribulation realm, he could still threaten those stronger than him at the Eighth Tribulation realm.

Apart from the Universe Masters, everyone feared the power of Death.

Even the Universe Masters didn’t want to be tainted by this power.

This also made Jian Wushuang curious. If it was indeed Mie Sheng’s doing, then Mie Sheng had existed for too long.

From the era of the Ancient Moon Spacetime’s downfall, to the later Moro Spacetime, and even the spacetime of the Original Universe.

The span was too vast.

Adding to that, there was Dong Jun.

Jian Wushuang couldn’t even begin to calculate.

If it were true, then Mie Sheng must have been incredibly powerful.

Having evolved to the present, still only at the Six Tribulation realm.

Moreover, there was hope for improvement, perhaps not much different from the Universe Master.

Because he inherently represented Death. As long as he devoured Jian Wushuang, the fusion of Death and Life, it might reach a new level, surpassing the existence of the Nine Tribulation realm.

Thinking of this, Jian Wushuang shook his head vigorously.

Absolutely impossible.

If it were true, then it would be the end for the spacetime of the Original Universe.

By then, everyone would perish!

The power of Mie Sheng was a disaster in the Starry Sky!

He must figure out where these two Emperors obtained the power of Death, otherwise, he would not feel comfortable staying in the Ancient Moon Spacetime.

He couldn’t afford to let Mie Sheng find him again, or there would be nowhere to hide.

After all, he came to the Ancient Moon Spacetime to escape from Mie Sheng.

“Elder Muchen, how does His Majesty intend to deal with these two?” Jian Wushuang probed.

Elder Muchen sighed, “They are talents I found from the Yongheng Kingdom, all geniuses within the Yongheng Kingdom. It’s impossible to deal with them. The overall strength of the Yongheng Kingdom is much stronger than Yue Kingdom. The Sacred Assembly is about to arrive, His Majesty won’t offend them at this time!”

“The Yongheng Kingdom!” Jian Wushuang nodded.

It was a kingdom comparable to the Shi Kingdom, and the strong of the Yongheng Clan were notorious lunatics.

Although the two Emperors were not of the Yongheng Clan, they were core disciples of the Yongheng Kingdom, also geniuses.

They couldn’t be detained for too long, or it would arouse their suspicion. They would probably be released in a few days.

Empress Fengchen went to contend for the position of Holy Maiden, and cooperation with the Yongheng Kingdom would be inevitable.

Offending them at this time might cause trouble for her.

Although there was no suitable candidate for Holy Maiden in the Yongheng Kingdom, they could still influence the situation.
