As An Immortal, I Only Learn Forbidden Skills - Chapter 597
597 Golden Eyes
Gongye Jiu spoke with a smile, causing Jiang Ming’s eyelids to twitch a few times.
When did he become a future Saint?
Gongye Jiu could see Jiang Ming’s doubt and said with a smile, “I can’t say for sure how far you can go in the future. After all, one wrong step could lead to more mistakes. Even if I use my clairvoyance and predict that you will become a Saint in the future, if you misstep, this future will not come true.”
Jiang Ming raised his eyebrows and remembered a movie he had seen in his previous life. He immediately asked, “Does this mean there are millions of paths in a person’s future, and one of them may be the main path, but if you take a wrong step, you’ll end up on a different path?”
Gongye Jiu was stunned for a moment before he nodded. “Although the way you put it is not very eloquent, it is indeed so. I am telling you where the future will lead you, but once you insist on doing so or use this to disrupt your future, you may take the wrong step. One wrong step will lead to more mistakes. Of course, this is also uncertain. Perhaps this wrong step will make your future brighter and greater than what you have calculated so far, or it might be worse, and you’ll die miserably. In short, I won’t tell you what your future holds. You may reach the top, but you may also fail. Moreover, the outcome after reaching the top might be even worse, and the outcome of losing for a moment might be good. This is the wheel of fate.”
At this time, Zhu An’an could not help but say, “Since they know that it will mess with their fate, why do so many cultivators still want to predict their destiny?”
“Hehe, the reason is very simple. It’s because they want to reap without sowing. Even if it’s just a moment of pleasure, it’s good. However, at a critical moment, they want to defy the heavens and change their fate… This is the human heart!”
Gongye Jiu chuckled. What was a human heart? It was the most difficult thing to figure out in this world. Even he did not want to read the fortunes of others, because the seer would incur the jealousy of the heavens, and at the same time, it would invite the suspicion and hatred of others.
The world thought that seers were high and mighty, but they did not know that no one wanted to be a seer if they could.
Jiang Ming pondered for a while and asked seriously, “Master Jiu, where are you now?”
This time, Gongye Jiu did not answer. He waved his hand and said, “Come with me. First, we’ll take the Dragon Burial Sword and the nether stones. There’s another thing I want to give you.”
He led Jiang Ming forward.
The terrifying atmosphere in front of him did not dissipate at all. Jiang Ming’s expression changed drastically when he felt all of this.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Jiang Ming’s face suddenly froze after the series of collisions.
Gongye Jiu naturally sensed the change in Jiang Ming’s mood. He immediately lowered his voice and said, “Kid, don’t hesitate. As long as I’m here, you can follow me! There are thousands of variables in this world. You can’t stop moving forward just because there’s danger ahead, right?”
That was true.
On the path of cultivation, one had to compete with everything and everyone. Jiang Ming knew this very well, so he naturally felt much calmer. He continued to follow Gongye Jiu and only arrived at their destination a few hours later.
“That is the Dragon Burial Cave. After you enter, you will be able to find everything you want… Take out all the items from your storage ring. Remember, although one of the items is said to be a gift to you, it is actually a gift to the little lady with you.”
Little lady? Mini Bai?
Jiang Ming was taken aback. He did not expect Gongye Jiu to suddenly mention Mini Bai. He subconsciously wanted to hide her but was interrupted by Gongye Jiu’s chuckle.
“There’s no need to hide her. She’s going to be your future general in battle, but she won’t be of much use in the Lower Realm. However, her future strength cannot be underestimated. What you have to do now is to nurture her as much as possible and make her your capable general!”
Jiang Ming was silent for a long time before he chose to continue moving forward. The Dragon Burial Cave was pitch-black, as if it was hiding some extremely terrifying creature. Even someone as bold as Jiang Ming was a little flustered.
“Mister, I’ll go in with you!”
Zhu An’an tugged at Jiang Ming’s sleeve, wanting to follow him into the Dragon Burial Cave.
Looking at Zhu An’an’s worried eyes, Jiang Ming smiled subconsciously. He ruffled her hair and pinched her nose.
“Don’t be afraid. I’m very powerful. As long as I want to do it, there’s nothing I can’t do.”
“Yes, I believe that you’re the best, but I still want to go in with you.”
Zhu An’an pouted.
Jiang Ming’s heart was filled with warmth again. He pulled Zhu An’an into his arms and said in a low voice, “Stay outside and help me look after some people to prevent any accidents.”
Zhu An’an was stunned. She immediately understood that Jiang Ming wanted her to keep an eye on Gongye Jiu.
Although the figure claimed to be Gongye Jiu and Master Mo was the witness, it was hard to believe a person like Master Mo.
Jiang Ming’s actions were within Gongye Jiu’s expectations. The latter chuckled and did not mind. He said, “Master Ning, you will meet some people after you go in this time. One of them is especially important. That is the expert who once killed General Long Qie. Once you meet him, you must be respectful. This guy was a very arrogant person when he was alive. If you show off, you will only anger him, and you won’t be able to succeed.”
“Alright.”
Jiang Ming nodded gently and turned around to walk up the stairs. After reaching the top, his heart suddenly trembled.
Something was wrong!
Jiang Ming seemed to have sensed something and looked at the other end. He kept feeling that there was something watching them.
“Is it that terrifying existence?”
Jiang Ming narrowed his eyes and raised his blade vigilantly to prevent the sudden intervention of the terrifying existence. However, he also knew that even if he used his blade, it would be useless. In front of such an existence, a small Nascent Soul Realm Cultivator like him could not resist at all.
Then, Jiang Ming entered the Dragon Burial Cave. After looking around a few times, he could not help but rub his temples.
“Looks like I have to get serious. Let me use the Desolate Dragon bloodline’s divine ability, Golden Eyes!”
This was not actually a divine ability. It was an ability that the Desolate Dragon itself possessed. However, after fusing with the Desolate Dragon bloodline, Jiang Ming also refined this ability into a mystic technique to ensure that he had powerful vision.
Jiang Ming’s eyes gradually glowed with golden light, and he could see everything around him clearly in an instant.
“Bones!”
When Jiang Ming saw the skeletons in front of him, he subconsciously took a few steps back and almost fell to the ground.
