Bank of the Universe Novel - Chapter 98
Chapter 98: La Mo!
After acquiring the Blood Letting Blade, Heaven Heart turned around and left.
He left the old man alone, quietly looking at the broken temple in melancholy.
From a few hundred miles away, Heaven Heart turned around and took a look.
The old man was quietly repairing the temple. Brick by brick, he started to rebuild it. As for those statues, he started to carve them once again, stroke by stroke.
He chose to continue believing in the High Mountain God.
This was because the old man realized that if he didn’t believe in the High Mountain God, what else could he do?
He spent his whole life living in the temple and worshipping the High Mountain God. He had an outstanding cultivation but didn’t use it to compete with others or to change the lives of his people.
From start to finish, he just enjoyed spending time in front of the High Mountain God’s statue, just like 1,000 years ago when his parents brought him into the temple.
That was the first time he saw the supreme High Mountain God!
When he was young, he was in awe and entered the High Mountain God temple. He started small and slowly reached Dao Saint Realm and took over the temple.
But as time went on, there were fewer and fewer people in the temple…
Now, he was the only one remaining who worshipped the High Mountain God.
“Maybe it is a really romantic thing for me to die along with the High Mountain God.” The old man contemplated ending this branch.
He would release all the people and not let them die alongside the High Mountain God and himself.
…
The final branch of people in High Mountain Race who worshipped the High Mountain God was about to disappear.
The other branches had long given up the old traditions and started to become more modern. One could see these changes through the large number of stone statues in all the caves.
Some carved Buddhas, some carved demons, some wanted to spread their culture while some just wanted destruction…
Heaven Heart didn’t think too much. After acquiring the Blood Letting Blade, he dashed into the distance and rushed to meet up with Long Mixu and the others.
They had gotten one of the seven blades and just needed the remaining six.
In one branch of the High Mountain Race, in an enormous ancient city, there lived hundreds of thousands of people.
Fallen Angel Lucifer flew in the air with his gigantic stature and didn’t bother to hide his aura at all. The black and white mixed together and made him look like a true demon king.
Hong!
Lucifer landed and looked down on the city. He said coldly, “Hand over the Bloodthirst Blade.”
Contrary to Heaven Heart, Lucifer was more violent and didn’t hide his intentions at all.
“How bold! How can one Dao Saint come and act so arrogantly in front of my High Mountain Race?” A Dao Saint hollered in rage and flew out.
“Scram!” Lucifer scoffed coldly. The black and white energy around his body smashed down.
Explosion!
The Dao Saint pulled out his long sword and slashed forwards viciously.
Sword energy, a few miles long, clashed against Lucifer’s black and white energy, causing a huge shockwave. The clouds in the sky were pushed aside and a huge storm bellowed.
Lucifer said coldly, “You alone are no match for me. I don’t mind fighting if you want this city to be destroyed.”
The High Mountain Race Dao Saint was infuriated and he stared at Lucifer. He wanted to attack but he had to consider the lives of the hundreds of thousands inside.
“Who are you?” The Dao Saint asked furiously.
“An unimportant person. If you don’t want the people in the city to die, then hand the Bloodthirst Blade to me and I will leave.” Lucifer was someone who had fallen from heaven and he wasn’t a kind person. At this moment, he was using the lives of a city’s entire population to threaten the Dao Saint.
“You are so despicable and shameless.” The High Mountain Race Dao Saint was so angry and viciously scolded him.
Lucifer didn’t care and said, “As long as I can get the Bloodthirst Blade, I don’t mind using all sorts of shameless methods.”
“You…” The Dao Saint felt powerless. He could disregard the people in the city and fight him. But even if he won, he would have to pay a heavy price.
“Why do you want it?” The High Mountain Race Dao Saint asked.
“To build the World Grade Teleportation Formation. Once it is built, I will return the World Breaking Blade back to all of you.” Lucifer’s eyes suddenly shone like he had gotten an order. His tone changed and he stopped being so overbearing.
Within the Bank of the Universe, Li Xiandao and Seven watched these scenes.
“Do we still need the World Breaking Blade when the formation is built?” Li Xiandao asked Seven.
“No, we just need it to slice open the worlds. Once it is built, then there will be no need for the World Breaking Blade anymore.” Seven replied.
Li Xiandao nodded his head and informed Lucifer, “Tell them that we just need to borrow the seven parts of the World Breaking Blade. Once we finish using it, we will return it back to them.”
Li Xiandao didn’t want to be a thief. If he didn’t so desperately need the World Breaking Blade, he wouldn’t have come to this place.
When the High Mountain Race Dao Saint heard his words, he was shocked. “You actually want to gather the seven demon blades?”
Lucifer said, “Of course. Just one alone is useless. We have to gather all seven to form the World Breaking Blade.”
“Don’t worry. My Master just informed me that we will just be borrowing it. After we finish, the World Breaking Blade still belongs to your High Mountain Race and you won’t lose out on anything.” Lucifer said calmly.
The High Mountain Race’s Dao Saint’s voice was uncertain as he asked, “How can I trust you?”
“You have no choice because we have to get the World Breaking Blade!” Lucifer started to force him.
The High Mountain Race’s Dao Saint’s expression turned ugly. “If you don’t return it, I will show you the rage of High Mountain Race!”
“Deal. Since my Master has said that he will return it to you, then he will. It is just a World Breaking Blade… We don’t even care about it,” Lucifer said confidently.
In truth, that was indeed the case. If they weren’t building the World Grade Teleportation Formation, they wouldn’t be wasting their time here.
The High Mountain Race’s Dao Saint’s was really annoyed and he continued to stare at Lucifer.
“I am leaving. I have to collect the other parts.” Lucifer turned around, wanting to leave.
“Wait, I will follow you.” The High Mountain Race Dao Saint said.
Lucifer frowned and his tone turned cold as he said, “We are not playing with you!”
“I am not going to disturb you. The World Breaking Blade has been a High Mountain Race legend but no one has managed to gather all seven. I want to see what it looks like,” The High Mountain Race Dao Saint said.
“What is your name?” Lucifer looked closely at him and didn’t reject him.
“La Mo.” The Dao Saint said.
“Then, let’s go together. If there are some who are close to you, maybe you can help me persuade them.” Lucifer said.
“That depends. If you really can gather all seven, then maybe I can help you convince them.” La Mo neither agreed nor rejected the proposition.
