Chapter 579: 578. Lezi Ren_1
Back ho, Lu Ban felt as if a long ti had passed.
But in reality, it was only a bit more than a week.
After night fell, the spring breeze was warm, and he slept soundly.
The next day, Lu Ban sent Feng Yu a ssage to report his safety.
He did feel so regret that the token from the Mysterious Monarch, along with most of his previous body, had been left behind in the Temple. Otherwise, he could have taken it out and possibly inquired Feng Yu about who the original Mysterious Monarch actually was.
At noon, Feng Yu ca over to Lu Ban’s house.
She didn’t say much, just brought so groceries over to cook.
Sweet and sour ribs, green beans with cured at, hot and sour shredded potatoes, turnip and atball soup—simple and plain, these were tastes of ho.
They ate while watching TV.
“Speaking of that thing on Jiangcheng Mountain, is it still there?”
Lu Ban asked casually while watching the dancing aunties on the news.
“It is there, yet it’s not,”
Feng Yu played a riddle.
Before Lu Ban could ask further, she explained on her own.
“You must have seen those great entities in their sealed state. This blindly foolish state is mostly the work of an even greater existence’s handiwork, or rather, those Ancient Overlords who were sealed because they recklessly expanded, attempting to usurp authority, and thus they beca like this upon touching the truth.”
“Once interfered with by that great existence, all the Ancient Overlords will end up in such a state. After that, their enemies or so special beings will strengthen these seals. Of course, just as Pollution is contagious, so is this state of blind folly. That’s why the majority of Ancient Overlords are reluctant to approach those who have been sealed. So once sealed, in most cases, escape is impossible.”
“What if soone wants to release them?”
Lu Ban inquired.
“Indeed, there are those who wish to release these Ancient Overlords, so are followers from their past, or fools influenced by fragnts of texts circulated in the Foreign Domain who attempt to summon these beings, or other Ancient Overlords acting for certain benefits. But most Ancient Overlords have gone mad, and their actions are beyond all prediction,”
Feng Yu answered.
“Are there any Ancient Overlords in particular who enjoy doing this kind of thing?”
Lu Ban probed further. The reason he did not clarify outright was because he feared if Feng Yu was unaware of that dark-skinned man’s existence, the knowledge he provided could pollute her.
Though Lu Ban thought Feng Yu, battle-hardened and world-wise, surely must have encountered that dark-skinned man already, for safety’s sake he decided to release the information bit by bit.
“Such Ancient Overlords, there shouldn’t be many,”
Feng Yu pondered with her chin in her hand.
“But there are higher entities that take pleasure in this.”
“What are they like?”
Lu Ban was curious.
“…Have you encountered one?”
Feng Yu quickly realized the implication.
“Yes.”
“Wait, don’t say anymore, I need to think,”
Feng Yu now considered what Lu Ban also thought of.
The entities Lu Ban encountered and what she knew might not be one and the sa.
You have an apple, I have an apple, we share, and it’s still one apple.
But you have a piece of knowledge, I have a piece of knowledge, we share, and boom, everyone’s heads explode.
In the Foreign Domain, sharing knowledge is a dangerous act.
Especially when it involves information about the Ancient Overlords or even the beings above the Ancient Overlords.
While Feng Yu was thinking, Lu Ban was also pondering.
Soon, he recalled a na.
Corea.
In the Temple, that blond man had called out this na when the dark-skinned man appeared, and Lu Ban felt it was sowhat familiar.
Upon closer recollection, he realized he had heard the na before.
At Nanhua Private Renji Hospital, the hospital director who had tried to summon the Ancient Overlord was driven mad following the instigation of a man nad Corea, who had mastered the thod for summoning monsters from the Foreign Domain.
And the entity that the director had attempted to summon was the Ancient Overlord bound by the Black Hole in the Wasteland.
Similarly, the destruction of human civilization in the Wasteland was due to the Wormhole connecting to the Ancient Overlord, thus bringing about disaster, and the eradication of Wasteland’s humanity, with that maniacal thinking, might also have been brought about by this man.
If these two nas referred to the sa person, then it would an that this man, who went by the alias Corea, had many tis attempted to make others break the seal of the Ancient Overlord.
This also explained why he did not choose to directly unseal Fang Geng at the ti, but instead, departed.
Because by attempting to unseal directly, he himself would have been influenced by that blind foolishness, turning into the sa kind of being as the one sealed.
Therefore, he continuously incited the ignorant and foolish humans to try to break the seal ti and again.
No wonder, as such a high-ranking being, he still needed to take on human appearance to act and interact with Mortals.
That seemingly rational and elegant deanor of his was not true Sanity, but rather the manifestation of having reached the peak of madness, when one appears too normal, they might already be insane to the core!
Moreover, this fun-seeker who everywhere releases the seals of the Ancient Overlords, causing chaos, certainly has nothing to do with rationality.
“Do you still rember the person ntioned at Nanhua Private Renji Hospital? I t him this ti,”
Lu Ban said.
“Him?”
After a mont of contemplation, Feng Yu suddenly understood and said.
“It seems we know the sa person.”
“I can’t tell you his na, but I can tell you that he is an Ancient Overlord who far surpasses the others, the Supre God above gods, and what you have seen is but one of his thousands of avatars.”
“So of his avatars are gigantic bats, ghostly like nightmares, others are sober and indifferent kings, dressed in splendor with handso features, so avatars are curvaceous and fatally seductive, and so are Indescribable, beyond the gaze of ordinary people.”
Upon hearing Feng Yu’s words, Lu Ban noticed certain terms.
“Wait a minute…”
He had seen similar beings in the Abandoned Capital, one of which was a woman in a cheongsam, covering her face with a fan.
And clearly, in the Abandoned Capital, there were so Ancient Overlords sealed away, awaiting release.
Even in this world, there had been invasions by Chosen by Gods from other realms, trying to unlock the shackles on the sealed Divine Beings.
The more Lu Ban dwelled on it, the more he suspected that the “gods” referred to within the Chosen by Gods might relate to the level of deity that the man represented.
For their own purposes, they arranged for humans to perform various tasks, so to release the sealed Ancient Overlords, others to prevent it.
All of this was because of that supre being, the cause of blind and foolish behavior in people.
Lu Ban felt he was gradually coming to understand everything.
