Chapter 594: Why?

The Sea of Blood Celestial Lord slightly narrowed his eyes at the words.

“Sage?”

“Yes, an outsider Sage. The entire goal of the Dark Clan’s existence is to bring their deities into this world. The Dark Clan’s deities also wish to descend, but because the conditions for their arrival are incredibly harsh, they haven’t succeeded all these years.”

“In the previous life, because An Li was Lu Ye’s woman, Lu Ye treated her exceptionally well. However, An Li, in her madness, betrayed him by placing the key item for the deities’ arrival—the Dark Beginning Insect Seal—on Lu Ye, and the seal had already recognized him.”

“So, the Dark Clan began hoarding resources and started forging an altar. When Lu Ye’s Dark Beginning Insect Seal erupts, they will activate the altar to summon their deities.”

“At that point, their deities will replace Lu Ye.”

The Darkness Origin was extremely clear.

The Sea of Blood wasn’t a fool, and he understood.

“So, Lu Ye took advantage of the fact that the Dark Beginning Insect Seal hadn’t erupted yet and wiped out the Dark Clan.”

“Correct answer! But no reward!”

“What’s the point of saying all this?” the Sea of Blood Celestial Lord asked.

“Of course it’s useful. If it weren’t, why would I say so much?”

“Isn’t this the Dark Beginning Insect Seal?”

An Li took out something that looked like an eyeball, with countless tiny insect seals covering it, giving an eerie feeling just to look at it.

However, everyone present didn’t seem overly affected.

Who among them hadn’t been through great storms?

The Sea of Blood Celestial Lord took the Dark Beginning Insect Seal, examining it, and his expression gradually changed.

This object… truly didn’t seem like something produced from this world.

It was also quite extraordinary.

“What’s more, now that Lu Ye has wiped out the Dark Clan, and the altar is in his hands, ever since Lu Ye arrived in the Sixth Layer of Heaven, he has been broke as a joke. Even though the treasures that make up the altar can no longer be used, Lu Ye hasn’t destroyed them immediately. He’s still studying how to use the altar. I might be able to steal the altar!”

The Sea of Blood Celestial Lord’s eyes suddenly sparkled with bloodlust.

“What do you mean?”

“Let the Dark Clan’s deity descend upon you. Try to refine it; if you succeed, you could potentially catch a glimpse of the sanctified realm. If you don’t, that guy will battle with the Great Sage of the Nine Heavens’ laws at the same time, and though you may die, others might gain a chance at sanctification!”

“I’m not saying it will definitely succeed; ultimately, it’s your choice!”

The Sea of Blood Celestial Lord was indeed tempted.

This matter…

This matter…

Even if it’s a Sage, so what? For a Sage from outside the heavens to enter this realm, using the Dark Beginning Insect Seal, it won’t be that simple. They will surely come in gradually, and when that time comes, they won’t be dealing with a complete Sage.

It really might succeed!

“You retrieve the altar first!”

The Sea of Blood Celestial Lord said.

“Are you in or not? If you don’t, I won’t retrieve the altar because I’d definitely be struck badly by the Heavenly Dao when I appear in front of Lu Ye,” the Darkness Origin said helplessly.

“Just retrieve it first!”

“No way!”

“You!”

The Sea of Blood Celestial Lord immediately became angry.

“Being struck by the Heavenly Dao really hurts! Unless you take the hit for me, I’ll help you retrieve it,” the Darkness Origin remarked.

“Fine, I’ll take the hit for you!”

“Really?”

“Hurry up; what if they destroy the altar!”

“Then it’s settled, you take the hit for me!”

“Alright, I’ll help you!”

The Darkness Origin took a deep breath and began to act.

The Sea of Blood Celestial Lord’s figure vanished in an instant.

In the River of Time, the Sea of Blood Celestial Lord searched for the Darkness Origin. No trace found!

Searching for An Li?

No trace found!

Searching for Lu Ye?

Also no trace found!

But the Sea of Blood Celestial Lord didn’t intend to see the scenes of these three because he could observe based on the past experiences of others.

Soon, he found a key person.

Sun Ruowei!

The Sea of Blood Celestial Lord followed Sun Ruowei’s perspective to observe what had happened before.

However, very quickly, he frowned because Sun Ruowei’s energy was simply too vigorous. Even when she already knew about something, she would still want to hear it again and again.

But precisely because of this personality, the Sea of Blood Celestial Lord clearly saw what happened in the past.

The Darkness Origin and An Li were indeed targeting Lu Ye.

It could be said they had been at this for quite some time, their rivalry was to the death, utterly irreconcilable.

The Darkness Origin had been struck so many times and still hadn’t given up. No wonder they were so afraid of pain.

But why did the Darkness Origin part ways with An Li?

Weren’t they cooperating just fine? It really hurt Lu Ye—he would ask the Darkness Origin when they returned.

The Sea of Blood Celestial Lord felt somewhat reassured.

It seemed the Darkness Origin indeed wouldn’t betray; there was no need to because the Darkness Origin belonged to the top tier in this realm.

Why betray?

“Boom!”

Just then, black tribulation lightning rained down like destructive force capable of annihilating everything, heading towards the core of the Darkness Origin.

“Help, help, help…”

The Darkness Origin called out desperately.

The Sea of Blood Celestial Lord didn’t waste words and immediately acted to resist the tribulation lightning.

This time, the lightning went berserk, its power multiplying by hundreds of times—no, not just hundreds of times!

One could say, this wave was a direct collab between the Darkness Origin and the Heavenly Dao. Since there’s a fool helping to block the damage, they went all out!

The attack power of that lightning reached the level of a Celestial Lord.

Moreover, the tribulation lightning had a certain restraining effect on beings like the Sea of Blood Celestial Lord.

But what to do?

Just endure!

After a terrifying wave of tribulation lightning, the Darkness Origin disappeared without a trace.

The Sea of Blood Celestial Lord bore serious damage. Previously absorbing the Heavenly Blood Great Emperor’s power was essentially useless now.

It meant he only had a maximum of one hundred years left.

The altar appeared within the Darkness Origin, and the severely charred yet pale Sea of Blood Celestial Lord took a deep breath as he looked at the altar.

“Darkness Origin, can you tell me why you parted ways with An Li?”

The Darkness Origin’s voice turned icy.

“You don’t trust me?”

The Sea of Blood Celestial Lord…

“Since you don’t trust me, I’ll throw the altar away right now.”

“It’s not that I don’t trust you; I just want to find peace of mind.”

“You definitely don’t trust me. I’ll throw the altar away right now. You can die if you want, I’ll die too; we’ll all die together!” The Darkness Origin’s voice suddenly turned sharp.

The Sea of Blood Celestial Lord???

Other Great Emperors???

“Can you calm down a bit?”

“Calm what? Since you don’t trust me, why should I keep helping you? Just let everyone die; I’ll go die too, let’s die together!”
