Legend of Swordsman

Chapter 5942: Stay

The withered old man sitting in the middle slowly raised his hand and pointed a finger, instantly freezing the space.

Jian Wushuang widened his eyes, unable to believe it.

Just now, there was no divine power fluctuation in that move, yet it could freeze the space.

Definitely stronger than the Great Monk and Divine Wood King.

He couldn’t even resist. “It’s over!”

This time, he really messed up big time.

Encountering such a powerful individual, he didn’t even have hope of escaping.

It would have been better to try to escape, at least he could have maneuvered a bit.

But now, there was no way to escape.

Luckily, the other party didn’t have any killing intent, just wanted to keep them. “Don’t resist!”

Jian Wushuang shook his head at Wu Li and Danbao.

At the same time, he was thinking of a strategy.

How to get away.

With the opponent’s strength, even if the Great Monk and Divine Wood King found them, it wouldn’t matter.

They wouldn’t be able to rescue them at all.

Unless Chi Jiuxiao descended, only then could they fight.

But the key was that Chi Jiuxiao and them were not on the same side.

They could only think of another strategy. “You don’t need to worry!” The withered old man waved his hand and directly sent Jian Wushuang and the others into the Immortal Divine Temple. “We just want to know some things about the Higher Heavens. If you cooperate well, I guarantee you’ll be fine!”

Jian Wushuang sighed, “Senior, whatever you want to know, just ask, I’ll answer truthfully. But we really have urgent matters to attend to!”

This time, he almost begged.

If they were really detained.

Who knew when they could leave.

Although he had time, it wasn’t meant to be wasted like this! “Let me introduce myself, my name is Jiang Wuyan, one of the founders of the Immortal Divine Temple. I can also assure you that as long as you cooperate, everything will be fine!”

Jian Wushuang was anxious!

They were anxious too!

The matter of the Source of Life was crucial to their life and death.

Jian Wushuang took a deep breath, his expression becoming more serious, and then asked, “Senior Jiang, what do you want to ask, just say it!” “Good!” Jiang Wuyan, with his skinny claws, scratched his beard and said all the prepared words.

Mainly asking about the Higher Heavens, whether there had been any changes.

Instead of asking how Jian Wushuang came here, because they could see that Jian Wushuang and his group had secrets, and they wouldn’t really say them.

It’s better to ask about their own interests. “The Higher Heavens!”

Jian Wushuang pretended to be relaxed but was more panicked than anyone.

How would he know what the Higher Heavens looked like!?

But seeing the other’s appearance, he probably didn’t know much about the Higher Heavens either.

So he simply started fabricating a vast and ancient world of the Higher Heavens.

And then led to that incident. “The incident!”

Of course, it was the corrosion of the Metal Life Form on the Divine Tree of Wanliu.

This wasn’t much of a secret, even if he said it, it wouldn’t matter.

These powerhouses within the Wanliu Universe couldn’t possibly have any dealings with metallic lifeforms!

The three divine spirits were greatly alarmed upon hearing about the invasion of metallic lifeforms.

They promptly sealed off the spacetime, retreating into the depths of the temple. “Could these metallic lifeforms have any connection to the pyramid we saw?” “Impossible!” Jiang Wuyao retorted, “That pyramid is merely a treasure, how could it be a lifeform?” “But the lad said it’s metallic life, not conventional life. It seems more like a Special Life Form. It’s highly probable that it’s related to the pyramid. I’ve long suspected a disruption in the source, possibly linked to that pyramid!”

The dwindling Life source within the Immortal Divine Temple had been a matter of speculation, but lacking evidence, they had dismissed it.

During its prime, the Immortal Divine Temple could freely traverse the Universe Sea.

They had once plundered treasures within it, using the temple to overcome any obstacle.

Their last expedition had been to collide with a pyramid, believing it to be a treasure beyond their grasp.

Yet, despite their efforts, they couldn’t even scratch it.

They eventually gave up and returned to the Higher Heavens.

Shortly after, the Life source within the temple dried up.

They had initially attributed it to other factors, but now, according to Jian Wushuang’s words, it seemed there had been some unexpected event during that time.

They had inadvertently triggered some kind of prohibition.

And the pyramid had vanished since then.

At the time, they had thought it was seized by others.

Now, it seemed that within the pyramid might lie metallic lifeforms, awakened by their collision with the Immortal Divine Temple.

If Realm King were to find out they had released these metallic lifeforms, he would surely be furious.

Actually, when the Wanliu Divine Tree was brought by Weiss, the pyramid was already in the Universe Sea, just sealed.

It was only because the Immortal Divine Temple had broken the seal that the metallic lifeforms were released!

The three exchanged astonished glances.

They had thought some calamity had befallen the Higher Heavens, only to realize it was due to their own actions.

For a moment, it was hard to accept.

Whoosh!

The three returned to Jian Wushuang, this time with a more amiable demeanor. “Young Friends, how much do you know about these metallic lifeforms?”

Jian Wushuang said calmly, “In fact, not much. We don’t even know their exact location, just planning to venture into the Universe Sea and try our luck.”

Realm King had previously mentioned that the metallic lifeforms were nibbling at the Life source of the Wanliu Willow.

So, they were probably within the source itself, the interior of the Universe Sea.

The Stairway to Godhood was also there.

To achieve godhood, one couldn’t ignore the metallic lifeforms.

Actually, it would be easier to deal with them once Danbao became the God of Life.

Unfortunately, dealing with the metal lifeforms was not going to be easy.

These metallic beings weren’t ignorant; they hailed from other spacetimes, possibly knowing more than the three great spirits themselves.

The three divine spirits exchanged glances, the truth now laid bare before them.

Without deluding themselves, they could even venture into the Universe Sea to seek out these metal lifeforms. “In that case, we cannot shirk our responsibility. Although we don’t know how these metal lifeforms came into existence, they pose a threat to the Great Sky Dome World. It’s not just the powerful beings of the Higher Heavens who must act; we will also intervene personally!”

Jiang Wuyan’s words were impassioned.

He was eager to confront the metal lifeforms head-on immediately.

Jian Wushuang hadn’t anticipated the magnitude of the situation. He thought they might not believe or would require more delicate negotiation.

But to his surprise, they didn’t hesitate to offer their assistance.

Not only did they agree outright, but they also volunteered to actively eradicate the metal lifeforms.

A glimmer of hope emerged amidst the uncertainty. “Senior’s noble intentions!”

Jian Wushuang breathed a sigh of relief, feeling a surge of excitement deep within. “Benefactor, this temple is extraordinary!” Danbao suddenly communicated through mental transmission.

He sensed a fluctuation emanating from within the temple.
