Serpent Ancestor -
Chapter 533: The Truth of the Ancient War
As the sealed memories resurfaced, Lotus True Monarch finally understood everything.
It turned out she wasn't an Inner Demon; she was merely a lingering obsession.
At this moment, she also recalled the truth of the great battle from years ago.
"In the year 66332 of the Canglan Era, in the Northern Cold Region of the Spirit Realm, a plague emerged, affecting only cultivators and not mortals. Contact with it allowed extraterrestrial demons to invade the body."
"Normally, these demons remained hidden and dormant within the body, spreading from one to ten, ten to a hundred, until millions were infected, and then they would suddenly erupt, appearing collectively."
"The Tomb Elder under Canglan Immortal Lord's command was sent to suppress the demons, launching several battles, but with little effect. The speed of demon extermination could never keep up with the plague's spread."
"To eradicate the chaos, Canglan Immortal Lord personally intervened, summoning a meteor to completely shatter the Northern Cold Region, detaching it from the Spirit Realm, leaving it to drift beyond the world!"
"……"
"From then on, the plague was eradicated, the Spirit Realm stabilized, but the Northern Cold Region vanished forever, drifting into the Void."
"The Northern Cold Region drifted for thousands of years until it bordered the Mortal Realm, becoming fixed there, and was called the Outer Battlefield by the mortals!"Lotus True Monarch remembered, everything came back to her.
So, the so-called Outer Battlefield was actually the Northern Cold Region of the Spirit Realm, shattered by Canglan Immortal Lord due to the uncontainable plague, thus falling into the mortal world!
And the shadow identical to her was her own extraterrestrial demon from her previous life.
She understood everything.
After being invaded by the demon, her thoughts were controlled, and her memories erased until now, when that demon disappeared, she finally recalled the events of those years.
"Qing'er, I remember now, this is the truth from back then!"
Lotus True Monarch raised her hand, transmitting countless pieces of information into Xu Bai's mind.
At the same time, she glanced deeply at Xu Hei, stopping his action of consuming dragon blood with a gesture from afar.
"You've done well, young one. Leave the rest to me!"
Lotus True Monarch spoke calmly.
With a wave of her hand, everyone's movements were halted, time seemed to freeze, their minds could still think, but their bodies couldn't move an inch.
Everyone's faces changed dramatically, as if seeing a ghost.
"What kind of power is this?"
"I... I can't move!"
Everyone was stunned, Lotus True Monarch had merely pointed, and they were controlled, without even a fluctuation of laws. Her cultivation was likely beyond the Divine Transformation Stage, reaching a level they couldn't comprehend!
The restrictions of the Outer Battlefield were meant for the Divine Transformation Stage, for the laws! But not for her!
Ling Wushuang's eyes showed fear, and Lotus True Monarch merely glanced at him.
"Spare me, senior!" Ling Wushuang screamed in terror, but before he could finish, his body exploded into countless fragments, and the vast sea of Sword Qi vanished instantly.
Ling Wushuang, the chief disciple of Tianhen Sword Sect, fell!
He died under a single glance from Lotus True Monarch, so simply and cleanly, without even having the chance to use any trump cards!
And this was merely a lingering obsession of Lotus True Monarch, not a living person.
Then, Lotus True Monarch turned her gaze to the second person, Evil Sword Emperor Wang Xiu, ready to strike again.
"Hmph!"
At this moment, a cold snort came from Tomb Elder, an invisible wave from afar severed the killing intent.
Tomb Elder spoke slowly, "Lotus True Monarch, even if you've regained your memories, what can you do? You're just a lingering obsession, you can't change anything."
"There are five commanders like you, how will you deal with the remaining four?"
As he spoke.
Four phantom figures floated over from afar.
The first was a middle-aged man with black hair like a waterfall, holding a long halberd, clad in scale armor, wearing a golden crown, resembling a majestic general from the divine realm.
The second was a white-haired youth, holding a treasured cauldron, his body adorned with pearls and jade, with a qilin mark on his forehead, like an emperor descending to the mortal world.
The third was a red-haired woman, carrying a longbow, dressed in a feathered robe, surrounded by divine fire, with a third divine eye on her forehead, bearing some resemblance to Jiang Nine Phoenix.
The fourth was a towering figure, wielding a large hammer, emanating an earthy yellow aura, distorting the surrounding space with a strong sense of oppression.
But all four had vacant eyes, devoid of spirit, like puppets controlled by someone.
Without a doubt, these four were all great cultivators of the same level as Lotus True Monarch.
They, along with Lotus True Monarch, were the commanders sent by Tomb Elder to suppress the demons, but during the great battle with the extraterrestrial Heavenly Demons, they were buried together by Canglan Immortal Lord with a meteor.
At this moment, Xu Hei suddenly received a flood of information, transmitted from Lotus True Monarch's divine sense.
Xu Hei also learned the truth at the same time.
He also learned that Tomb Elder was their supreme commander, the Tomb Elder.
These tombstones were set by Tomb Elder to seal the extraterrestrial demons.
However, the Tomb Elder before them was a copy of Tomb Elder's demon, and the real Tomb Elder was likely long gone like them.
"Young one, do you have a way to get this information out?" Lotus True Monarch's voice came through.
"The Void Realm erases memories," Xu Hei replied.
"You must have a way, right?" Lotus True Monarch asked.
Xu Hei remained silent.
He could try using the Demon God Cauldron, but he couldn't guarantee success.
"You have something on you that even I can't see through, surely these demons can't either!"
"The Void Realm seals millions of extraterrestrial demons. If the obsessions in the tomb are all erased, then the demons will all gain freedom, and Tomb Elder's demon will also escape!"
"At that time, it would be a disaster not only for the Spirit Realm but also for the Mortal Realm!"
"Please convey this message to Canglan Immortal Lord!"
Information after information was transmitted from Lotus True Monarch.
Xu Hei's face changed dramatically, and he quickly said, "I'm too weak to bear such a heavy responsibility!"
Are you kidding? He's just a small fry from the Mortal Realm, how could he deliver such a message to Canglan Immortal Lord? He hadn't even heard of the Spirit Realm, how could he contact such a super figure?
To this, Lotus True Monarch merely smiled slightly.
"Whoosh!"
Suddenly, Lotus True Monarch's figure trembled, waves of ripples spread from her forehead, a fluctuation of laws.
"Boom!!"
The world shook, the sun and moon lost their light, the entire Void Realm was boiling violently, as if the heavens and earth were collapsing, mountains roaring and seas raging, like an unprecedented void earthquake.
This was an incredibly powerful law, a thousand times stronger than what they had previously exhibited!
"What strong laws!"
"My heavens, this is the Five Elemental Laws unleashed!" Wu Yuan exclaimed in shock.
Not only were the Five Elemental Laws unleashed, but they were also overwhelmingly strong, in a realm where laws were incomplete, wielding such power was akin to suicide!
However, Lotus True Monarch showed no abnormalities, only becoming more ethereal.
And the result appeared, a spatial passage was torn open at Lotus True Monarch's location, dark and deep, with a bridge inside, seemingly leading directly to the outside world.
Xu Hei saw two "Naihe" on the bridge.
Naihe Bridge! Legend has it that crossing this bridge would erase one's memories.
"This bridge was set by Canglan Immortal Lord back then, at the cost of losing memories, it can annihilate all extraterrestrial demons. Anyone who leaves won't be tainted by demons!"
"This was to prevent the plague from spreading to the outside world."
"This is also the only way out of the Void Realm!"
Lotus True Monarch explained slowly.
Xu Hei felt helpless, he didn't want to take on such a heavy task, but it seemed he had no choice, directly designated by Lotus True Monarch.
"The millions of extraterrestrial demons in the Void Realm, the first seal is the suppression of the tombstones, now that most of the obsessions in the tomb have been cleared, it will eventually be undone!"
"And this Naihe Bridge is the second seal!"
"I will help you leave!"
With a gentle push, Lotus True Monarch sent Xu Hei flying towards the rift in the space, heading towards the Naihe Bridge deep in the void.
Xu Hei sighed, feeling the cold gaze of Tomb Elder.
At the same time, the four Grand Commanders also raised their heads, looking at Xu Hei.
Xu Hei, with a thought, recorded all the memories from the Void Realm into a jade slip and stored it in the Demon God Cauldron.
