573 I Have a Secret! (2)

The Shadow of Harmony’s tone was filled with flattery.

“Yes, I hope you’ll do as you say. In the future, perform well. Otherwise, once this Dao Rune Bomb explodes, I don’t think I need to say much about your outcome.”

“Ah? Boss, aren’t you going to take out this bomb?”

“Why would I take it out?”

Lin Bei asked.

“I—”

“Alright, that’s it.”

Without waiting for the Shadow of Harmony to speak, Lin Bei waved his hand and said, “As long as you behave, you’ll be fine. Moreover, if you place it at your core, it can be thrown out as a trump card to deal with the enemy at critical moments. You can have such a powerful aura. This way, you’ll be better hidden when you attack and it’ll be easier to succeed.”

“Well… Okay.”

When the Shadow of Harmony heard this, he could only accept his fate.

Who asked him to have ill intentions from the beginning?

Now that he was suppressed, he had only himself to blame.

Although he was a little unwilling, he could only accept his fate in the face of the absolute suppression of the Chaos Breathing Technique.

The winner takes all. If he had succeeded previously, he would have been able to obtain the greatest freedom. However, if he failed, he would have to suffer the consequences.

Regarding these results, the Shadow of Harmony had long figured it out. Now that he had lost, he naturally admitted defeat.

However, it had to be said that if it were anyone else, he would not lose too much. However, who would have thought that he would actually encounter a freak who had mastered the Chaos Breathing Technique?

Speaking of which, countless years had passed, right?

There was actually someone who cultivated the Chaos Breathing Technique?

Could he succeed?

The Shadow of Harmony felt that it was difficult, but he did not dare to say anything. Who cares? He just had to play his role as an underling. As for the other matters, he would take it one step at a time.

He only hoped that his boss, who had mastered the Chaos Breathing Technique, would not die this time. Otherwise, he might not be able to be carefree for long before he fell into an endless sleep again.

“Sigh, it’s too difficult for me. Why do I always meet such people? Can’t I just meet a normal one? I also want to experience the treatment of a ‘Ring Grandpa’. What a pity.”

The Shadow of Harmony sighed in his heart, but he quickly adjusted his mentality. In the end, he scattered a wisp of energy from the black cloak and condensed a palm-sized black figure. This was the materialization of his soul. Although it was only a wisp of his origin soul, it could help him see this new world after countless years.

After all, according to Lin Bei’s previous arrangements, he could only be an emotionless Golden Cloak now… No, it was the Black Cloak. He could not casually reveal his true ability. Otherwise, he might cause unnecessary trouble.

“Boss, do you think I can do this?”

The black figure asked obediently with a fawning expression.

“Up to you. As long as you don’t expose yourself.”

Lin Bei did not care much about the actions of the Shadow of Harmony. He had buried a “landmine” in the other party’s core. If the guy really dared to cause trouble, he did not mind detonating the Dao rune mark and letting him have a good time.

Shadow of Harmony was delighted to receive an answer. He leaned on Lin Bei’s shoulder and continued to flatter him. “Boss, let me tell you a secret!”

“Oh? What secret? Tell me.”

Lin Bei was interested.

Something that could be treated as a secret by the Shadow of Harmony should not be simple.

“This Bleak Mountain… was actually an incredible place in the ancient times!”

Seeing that Lin Bei was interested, the Shadow of Harmony hurriedly said, “In the depths of this Bleak Mountain, there’s actually a mansion. That mansion was the cave abode of an Azure Beast Qilin in ancient times.”

“Azure Beast Qilin?”

Lin Bei was a little curious.

What kind of existence was this Azure Beast Qilin?

“The Azure Beast Qilin was the leader of the Five Sacred Beasts back then!”

“Five Sacred Beasts?”

“That’s right! It’s the five Sacred Beasts! Back then, the Sacred Beasts were real Sacred Beasts, not the so-called Saint Realm now. They’re actually only at the Order Law Realm. They flatter themselves and insist on saying that they’re at the Saint Realm. Actually, they’re really far inferior!”

Little Shadow said proudly.

“Order Law Realm?”

Lin Bei’s heart skipped a beat.

Previously, when he met the soul projection of the Heavenly Emperor, the other party had also said this. The current Saint Realm was only the Order Law Realm in the ancient times. As for the true Saint Realm, it really existed in the era where the Heavenly Emperor and the others were living.

If he remembered correctly, the Heavenly Emperor had given an explanation back then. The Saint Realm was a realm called the Above Great Dao.

At that time, the Heavenly Emperor had also said that there were a few realms above the Order Law Realm. They were the Original Realm, the Heaven Splitting Realm, and the Great Dao Realm. Then, what level was this “Above Great Dao” realm?

Was it at the Great Dao Realm or above?

Lin Bei did not know about this.

Back then, he had also asked the projection of the Heavenly Emperor, but the other party only shook his head with a smile and did not explain to him. He only told him that when he stepped into the Heaven Splitting Realm, he should return and go to a passageway known as the “Outer World Battlefield” to complete a mission.

After the matter was completed, he would receive a huge reward.

Of course, the Heavenly Emperor did not say what the reward was.

Lin Bei did not care too much. After all, the Heaven Splitting Realm was still far from him.

The current him was not even at the Original Realm, let alone the stronger Heaven Splitting Realm.

One had to take things one step at a time. Lin Bei was clear about this.

Although his speed had increased rapidly, he had taken it step by step in the normal order.

He was just talented and had many opportunities. Otherwise, it would still be a long time before he could become a nine-star Saint Realm, no, perhaps a ninth-grade Order Law Realm.

Of course, he did not care about the outer world battlefield that the Heavenly Emperor had mentioned. What he cared about was the Azure Beast Qilin that the Shadow had just mentioned. This existence was known as the leader of the Five Sacred Beasts!

Therefore, he directly asked the Shadow of Harmony.

“Tell me in detail about this Azure Beast Qilin. His residence is in the depths of the Azure Mountain Despair, and what does it have to do with the secret you mentioned?”

This was what Lin Bei was concerned about now.

As for the battleground, who cared? It was still very far away.

“Now, this place is called the Four Square Regions. The area we’re in is called the Azure Dragon Region. In fact, that’s not how it was called in ancient times.”

Seeing that Lin Bei was very curious, Little Shadow hurriedly explained in detail, “This place used to be called the Four Sanctuaries, and the Azure Dragon Domain used to be called the Azure Dragon Saint Domain! Although it’s only a one-word difference, it’s different with the word ‘Saint’! This means that this Domain is guarded by a Saint-level powerhouse!”

“The key is that there’s an alliance of the Four Sanctuaries! In ancient times, even a Saint-level powerhouse was a giant! What’s more, it’s a four-party alliance. Therefore, in ancient times, the Four Sanctuaries were also famous.”

“Of course, if that was all, the Four Sanctuaries wouldn’t be so highly respected by me! The key is still this Azure Beast Qilin! Among the Four Sanctuaries, the Qilin was the most low-profile. It didn’t even establish its own Holy Land, but… it’s the teacher of the Four Divine Beasts! A true peerless powerhouse!”

Little Shadow said excitedly, “The Azure Beast Qilin is extremely low-key, but his strength was not even comparable to the combined strength of the four Saint Beasts! It’s said that the Azure Beast Qilin was in seclusion to break through back then! A breakthrough! To be able to break through at that level, how strong would it be?”

“Very strong!”

Lin Bei nodded heavily.

Not to mention the Azure Beast Qilin, even the four sacred beasts of the Four Sanctuaries were very strong in his opinion.

“But… what does this have to do with the secret you’re about to tell?”

“Yes! And it has a lot to do with it!”

Shadow of Harmony explained excitedly, “Just now, under the stimulation of your ancient martial arts power, my soul had already recovered, so I recalled many things. I felt a power aura. Although it was very weak, it was very similar to the Azure Beast Qilin back then!”

“In other words, there’s a high chance that his mansion from back then still exists! Moreover… it’s in the depths of this mountain!”

“Say, if we can enter the Azure Beast Qilin’s residence and obtain the opportunities inside, Boss, how far can your strength… increase?”

“We’re rich!”
