The Heavenly Saber Novel - Chapter 142
Chapter 142 Ancestor Of All Fiends
When Liu Ke’er heard the voice in the forest, she instantly turned around. Seeing Li Qing, she couldn’t help but be excited. She quickly rushed over and hugged him tightly. She cried and said, “I waited here for a long time, but I thought you were gone. You scared me to death!”
Li Qing stroked her hair and comforted her softly, “Alright, aren’t I alright now? Everything is fine.”
“What happened to you inside? Why haven’t you come out for so long?” Liu Ke’er asked.
“I’ve experienced many illusions in the forest, so I’ve been delayed for a while. How are you doing?” Li Qing asked.
“Illusion?” Liu Ke’er was a little puzzled. “No, I didn’t. After I entered, I discovered that you had suddenly disappeared. Then, I was very flustered. I was searching all the time and unknowingly walked out.”
Li Qing felt that it was very strange. He also entered the forest. Why did Liu Ke’er not experience the illusion, but he did? I really can’t figure it out.
“Forget it, it’s all over. Let’s go and continue forward.” Li Qing said. Forget it if you can’t figure it out, there are many strange things happening here anyway.
“Alright!” Liu Ke’er smiled and finally settled down.
…
The two of them continued forward.
“After going through so many difficulties, I wonder when the end will come.” Liu Ke’er couldn’t help but complain.
“Hold on a bit longer, maybe we’ll reach the end soon.” Li Qing said.
At this moment, their hearts were like tense strings, as if they would break with a slight force, almost reaching their limit.
Those who traveled a hundred li were half-ninety. At the last moment, he must not relax in order to avoid losing everything.
As they were speaking, the thick purple mist slowly separated and two gates of light appeared in front of them.
One door was black and the other was white.
On the black door, there was a bloody word for death. It was gloomy, and there was a faint aura of death emanating from it. It was extremely ominous, causing one’s heart to tremble when they saw it.
On the other white door, there was a green word written. It was filled with brilliant light, as if it contained vigorous vitality, making people feel like they were bathed in spring breeze at a glance.
“What does this mean?” The two of them looked at the two gates of light in front of them and were somewhat puzzled.
“Could it be that you want us to choose a door to enter? If we go in the wrong way, we will die?” Li Qing guessed.
“If that’s the case, then of course, you have to choose the Life Sect. Who would choose the Death Sect?” Liu Ke’er couldn’t help but say.
This door was written with the words “life and death” written on it. Such an obvious matter, moreover, the death aura contained in the death door made people a little annoyed. If they entered, wouldn’t they be courting death?
“Perhaps it’s not that simple. If that’s the case, why should we set up two doors? The problem is that the door of life may not be the path of life, and the door of death may not be the path of death. Perhaps it’s the opposite.” Li Qing said, “We have to figure out what this door of life and death is for. Only then can we make a choice.”
“Isn’t this thinking too much?” Liu Ke’er said.
Li Qing wasn’t sure, “I don’t know, maybe your idea is right.”
Liu Ke’er thought for a while and said, “In the theory of Taoism, there is a saying that Yin and Yang live side by side. If according to this theory, Yin and Yang go against each other and life and death change places, then isn’t death the only path to life?”
“It’s hard to say.” Li Qing shook his head. “Yin and Yang living side by side is the Dao of the Limitless Daofather. They are sworn enemies with the Demon Ancestor. I don’t think that’s the case.”
“What could that be?”
Li Qing frowned, unable to understand. These two doors were extremely mysterious and difficult to guess. Whether they were alive or dead, it was truly impossible for people to make a choice.
He could not help but feel the Heavenly Saber, still calling out faintly, guiding the direction, but he could not tell which door was the real path to life.
Obviously, this move was useless!
After thinking for a while, Liu Ke’er suddenly thought, “According to rumors, the Demon Ancestor is a tyrannical person who is exclusive. He should not be disdainful of making these twists and turns, right? Perhaps the Life Gate really is the way to survive!”
Li Qing’s eyes lit up and he nodded, “That’s right, it’s very likely.”
Following this line of thought, he continued to calculate and finally came to a conclusion, “The reason why the Demon Ancestor set up these two gates may be to openly tell us whether he wants to survive or to die!”
“What’s so difficult about this? Of course we’re trying to survive!” Liu Ke’er rolled her eyes, feeling that the Demon Ancestor was really bored.
“It’s probably not that simple. If what I expected is correct, if we choose to go through the Life Sect, then it means that we are willing to submit to the Demon Ancestor and obey his orders. Those who follow me will live, those who go against me will die!”
“This Demon Ancestor is truly tyrannical.” Liu Ke’er couldn’t help but mutter.
Li Qing said, “Then let’s go to the Life Gate! Even if we submit to the Demon Ancestor and listen to his words, there is nothing to lose face about. If we guess wrong, then we can only blame our bad luck and deserve this calamity.”
“Alright then, let’s go through the Life Gate. Anyway, I don’t want to go through that gloomy Death Gate anymore.” Liu Ke’er said.
“Let’s go!”
The two of them decided to discuss and then began to walk towards the Life Gate, feeling a little uneasy in their hearts. They didn’t know if their conjectures were correct or not.
After entering the Life Gate, he felt as if he had broken through a thin barrier and nothing had happened.
There was neither killing intent nor bloodshed. There was only an empty road that was extremely quiet and stretched out in an unknown direction.
The two of them couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief. It seemed that they were on the right path.
They continued on the empty path, and the sound of footsteps echoed. After walking for half an hour, he finally reached the end.
At the end, there was a purple altar. It was several zhang tall and divided into three layers. It was made of some unknown material. If one looked carefully, it was like a dream. It turned out to be made of demonic energy!
The terrifying devil energy could actually turn into a solid and create an altar. This was truly shocking.
There was a person sitting cross-legged on the altar, motionless.
A dense purple gas continuously emitted from his body, dyeing his surroundings purple.
As soon as the two of them saw the person sitting on the altar, their entire bodies trembled and endless negative emotions surged over. Their minds were filled with distractions, and they almost couldn’t keep the spirit altar clear.
This frightened them so much that they took a step back. Blood surged in their chests, and it took them a long time to calm down.
With just a glance, there was such a terrifying magic power.
The two of them hurriedly tidied up their minds and tightly guarded the spirit platform. Looking at it again, they could still feel a great pressure to suppress their minds.
They forcefully withstood this pressure and sized up the person on the stage. This person looked to be of medium stature. He wore a purple robe, his hair was messy, and his temples were dyed with star frost. He looked unrestrained, but he did not show the slightest bit of old age. His features were handsome, and he possessed a demonic charm like a devil.
At this moment, he closed his eyes and didn’t move at all, just like a sculpture. However, he could still feel the aura of domination and supremacy on his body. He had an untamed expression on his face. He was unwilling to accept the heavens and the earth, as if he wanted to pierce the heavens and tear the earth apart.
Looks like this person should be dead. There is no aura of life, but the corpse still does not rot. It seems like there is divine light flowing around. It can live forever. After millions of years, it will not die. Time will not be able to erase his body.
Seeing such a terrifying power, Li Qing and Liu Ke’er faintly guessed that this middle-aged man was the legendary invincible existence of the Myriad Demons Ancestor, known as the origin of Diabolism.
