Chu Mo listened, and couldn't help but be stunned for a long while, feeling a chill in his heart.
Quasi-Supre!
A half-step already taken into the ranks of the Supre, a being completely beyond the existence of abilities from the Emperor Realm!
Such a being, let alone Chu Mo, even any major figure from the Heavenly Realm would be completely suppressed in his presence, rendered incapable of action. No wonder everyone was so disheartened, all strongly urging him to leave the heavenly road imdiately.
Yue Qingcheng muttered to herself, "Such an existence shouldn't, in theory, make a move against a junior, so why?"
Yiyi had also completely cald down by now. After thinking for a mont, she said, "For such an existence to strike against a junior, the simple motive of profit seems insufficient. There must be sothing unknown to us at play here."
Hu Lie glanced at Fan Yang, who had died completely, and suddenly muttered, "If it wasn't for this guy, we probably wouldn't have discovered this. We might have unknowingly walked into an ambush already arranged by the enemy."
Yiyi's expression carried a touch of sadness, but she said resolutely, "He deserved to die! Chu Mo's strike was well placed!"
Yue Qingcheng said, "A mont later, and he might have really escaped. By then, he would beco a huge problem because he knew too much about us."
Everyone nodded in agreent. At that mont, Chu Qing suddenly said, "Chu Mo, do you possess so divine abilities that can twist space and ti?"
Yiyi suddenly lifted her head and exclaid, "I understand now!"
Everyone looked toward Yiyi, who explained, "It must be so! The people on the heavenly road, they want to leave! They want to exit the heavenly road and enter the Heavenly Realm!"
Taking a deep breath, Yiyi continued, "This road was once known as the path to godhood, but after the changes ten thousand years ago, the rules of Heaven and Earth were altered, and the heavenly road was also suppressed. Even a powerful being like Luo Jue couldn't break through to the Supre Realm on the heavenly road. And those from the Emperor Realm, they refused to be eternally trapped on this heavenly road that is like a prison. They want to get out!"
Xiao Changping said coldly, "The native cultivators on the heavenly road are incredibly envious of us cultivators from the Heavenly Realm because we can co and go as we please!"
Chu Qing added, "For true immortals and those below from the Heavenly Realm, the heavenly road is a true treasure trove. As long as one can enter and then leave alive, their realm will inevitably see significant improvent. However, to the native cultivators of the heavenly road, this place is no different than a cage."
Yiyi nodded, "At Hanging City, the battles between Chu Mo and Qin Xiaotian, including the one with Bian Kaiyu..." She looked at the severed head hanging on Chu Mo's waist, "All of these involved demonstrating abilities to manipulate ti and space to so degree, which suggests that Chu Mo must have cultivated so kind of divine ability in that aspect."
With that said, everything had beco very clear.
At that mont, the severed head that was hanging from Chu Mo's waist, which was Bian Kaiyu's, slowly began to speak, with a bitter smile, "You young people are really sothing else, able to guess all of this through the slightest of clues..."
"So it is as we've guessed?" Chu Qing asked, looking at the head of Bian Kaiyu.
Bian Kaiyu spoke, "The middle-aged man from Hanging City who wanted to make a deal with Long Qiushui, that man's na is Luo Su, and his true identity is actually the City Lord of Hanging City. Moreover, he holds an even more illustrious title, he is the cousin of Luo Jue, the King of the heavenly road!"
Everyone was stunned, a chill trickling down to the bottom of their hearts.
"It's no wonder those from Hanging City hold such awe towards that middle-aged man; he actually has such an identity," Hu Lie murmured.
Bian Kaiyu said, "Lord Chu, during the fight, indeed demonstrated divine abilities that distorted ti and space, such abilities are typically unseen by ordinary cultivators, but those of truly high realms can see through their essence at a glance… If Luo Jue acquires this ability, he really might be able to tear open the barriers on the heavenly road and then break out of this heavenly road. Then, as long as he leaves this divine ability on the heavenly road, the number of people able to leave the heavenly road in the future will certainly increase. The cultivators from the Heavenly Realm covet this road because it can bring you unimaginable benefits."
Bian Kaiyu's voice was sowhat somber, "But for the cultivators of the heavenly road, this place is a prison! We cannot see the endless starry sky; we can only live on this long and boundless road for our entire lives. Even if we beco cultivators of the Emperor Realm, we are still unable to shed our status as prisoners. Only by leaving the heavenly road could anything sway Luo Jue."
Bian Kaiyu continued earnestly, "Lord Chu, I am utterly convinced by your victory over . Over these days, I have seen that you are an exceptionally outstanding young Heavenly Genius, and I have a piece of advice, if you would hear it?"
Chu Mo said, "Speak."
"In my view, you might as well give that divine ability to Luo Jue. In fact, Luo Jue is a true martial fanatic, he's not the kind to commit unforgivable misdeeds. Put it this way, if Lord Chu gives him this divine ability, regardless of whether he can leave the heavenly road or not, I believe in Luo Jue's character; he will certainly offer you an opportunity of imnse fortune. He will also safeguard your journey on the heavenly road. In essence, it's a trade. Having followed you for so many days, I have co to understand your intentions. You wish to reach the end of the heavenly road to seek enlightennt. And that place… is Luo Jue's territory." Bian Kaiyu's words were sincere, without a hint of deceit.
Especially since his life now hung by Chu Mo's whim, it stands to reason he would definitely not dare to lie or deceive Chu Mo lightly. Thus, after he spoke, everyone fell into silence, pondering the feasibility of his proposition.
However, Chu Mo wasn't so naïve or ignorant. Born in the Mortal Realm, his upbringing, though not rife with deception and betrayal, nevertheless saw him through too many deceptions and betrayals. He had a far clearer and profoundly deeper understanding of the greed in human nature than any of the surrounding cultivators from the Heavenly Realm.
He did have divine artifacts on him!
Neither Heaven Slaying nor the Chaos Cauldron were ordinary supre artifacts.
Perhaps Luo Jue was truly a martial fanatic, as Bian Kaiyu described, but being a fanatic does not equate to being a fool, nor does it an absence of greed or personal desires.
Could Chu Mo pass on the Nine Word Mantra of the Daoist Sect? Of course, he could!
Because he held the Daoist Sect's token, he is its current patriarch!
Whatever decision he makes, no one else has the right to interfere.
But the issue is, once Luo Jue accepts the Nine Word Mantra taught by him, it ans becoming a disciple of the Daoist Sect. Would such a fearso being be content calling a young man his ntor? And what if, at the ti, Luo Jue covets the various divine artifacts on him, should he give them up?
Therefore, regarding Bian Kaiyu's suggestion, Chu Mo was noncommittal. He glanced at the others and then said, "Do you all think we should imdiately break through our realms and then leave the heavenly road?"
Everyone unanimously nodded their heads. Chu Qing looked at Chu Mo and said, "I know what's on your mind, but faced with a being of Quasi-Supre Realm, we stand no chance."
