Stop it, Taoist, Your Fight almost Ruins the DAO!
Chapter 974 - 527: The Story from the Master of Soldiers, Human Emperor and Yin Manor, Clarifications Over Tea (First Update)

"Please Master of Soldiers, help resolve my confusion!"

In the small courtyard, the teapot on the mud stove had already begun to gurgle, emitting tiny bubbles. Hearing the sigh of the Master of Soldiers, Yi Chen also began to ask questions solemnly.

Although he had some guesses in his heart, he was still full of curiosity about the explanation of the Master of Soldiers.

"Alright, let me think where to start explaining to you."

"Let's start from the Yin Manor."

"Yi Chengzi, do you know the origin of the Yin Manor?" At this moment, a hint of reminiscence appeared on the silver-white mask of the Master of Soldiers.

"I have indeed heard some stories and rumors, and I have made some guesses. Throughout the history of the Five Realms, the only figure who could be linked with this Red Residence through fate must be the Human Emperor of unparalleled innate gifts."

"Although the figures of Taoist Ancestral, Heavenly Buddha, and Demon Lord following the Human Emperor were all exceptional talents in their own right, they still fell short compared to His Majesty the Human Emperor."

"What I don't understand is wasn't it rumored that His Majesty the Human Emperor sacrificed himself to reverse the destiny and ensure the prosperity of the Human Race?"

"Moreover, why is there no mention of the Yin Manor in the legacies left by the Taoist Ancestral, Heavenly Buddha, or Demon Lord?" Yi Chen curiously asked.

Yi Chen had long harbored a doubt, which was whether Taoist Ancestral, Heavenly Buddha, and Demon Lord had ever investigated the matter of the Yin Manor in their timeline.

If they had, why then is there almost no mention of the Yin Manor in the legacies they left behind? It seemed as if the term was some kind of taboo, deliberately concealed by them.

"My young friend, you indeed possess exceptional intelligence. Before meeting you, I always believed that His Majesty the Human Emperor's talent and insight were unmatched in the past and unrivaled in the future. However, after meeting you today, I must question that last statement."

The Master of Soldiers glanced appreciatively at Yi Chen and then picked up the tea cup, started to rinse the cup and pour water. As the cup shook, crisp water formed a small vortex inside, spinning softly along the highest rim of the cup.

Watching the tiny vortex in the cup, the man in the silver-white mask did not pause and continued speaking on his own.

"Your conjecture is not wrong; the Yin Manor indeed has innumerable ties with His Majesty the Human Emperor."

"However, this Yin Manor was not personally built by His Majesty the Human Emperor but was an extraordinary Red Residence he inadvertently discovered when he arrived in the Yin Land."

"Even His Majesty the Human Emperor did not know who the original owner of this eerie Red Residence was, but the residence possessed an incredible Special Ability. Do you know what the monsters on the Yin Land covet most about the ability of the Yin Manor?" The Master of Soldiers moved his gaze from the center of the vortex in the water cup and smiled lightly at Yi Chen.

"Is it the ability to travel between Yin Land and the so-called Yangshi World in the mouths of the Black Hidden Buddha, that is, the Lingxia Realm?"

"Correct, it is precisely that, but this is only one of the strongest abilities of the Yin Manor."

"All world's ultimate Land of Fall is Yin Land, a rotten and foul region, a place of despair for Spiritual Practitioners."

"We are but small insects inhabiting the World Fruit, and one day, as the Spiritual Power in the fruit dwindles, suddenly, with a plop, we fall into this Yin Land. Tell me, for the beings from the World Fruit, would this not be a hell on earth."

The Master of Soldiers nodded appreciatively and continued,

"The Yin Manor is like a red spider perched in the midst of Yin Land, inversely linked to a fruit called Lingxia Realm. Through this spider silk channel, we must pay a certain price before we can travel back and forth at ease."

"At this time, if someone learns that there is a strange building in Yin Land that can provide a return to another fruit, my young friend, wouldn't those monsters outside go mad because of it?"

"The Yin Manor is indeed wondrous beyond compare, but what exactly is the truth behind His Majesty the Human Emperor's disappearance?"

"Let's put aside the mysteries of the Yin Manor for now, Master of Soldiers, please tell us about His Majesty the Human Emperor."

Despite the truth recounted by the Master of Soldiers stirring his mind, Yi Chen did not forget the final point to which all these mysteries pointed—the Human Emperor, the sole unparalleled power of the Lingxia Realm ancient and modern times, and he promptly inquired.

"Look at you, always in a hurry."

The Master of Soldiers sighed softly, after pouring out the tea-washing water, he began to pour new water, skim, grind the tea, and start the aroma shaking,

"Since you are so concerned about the story of His Majesty the Human Emperor, let me start from there."

"Yi Chengzi, do you know the origins of His Majesty the Human Emperor?"

"I naturally do not know."

"Hehe, since I find you pleasing to my eyes, I shall not hesitate to tell you this secret that I discovered in the Yin Manor."

At that moment, a hint of gossip appeared on the lifelike silver-white mask of the Master of Soldiers, and he vividly continued,

"There is no such thing as a genius springing from the crevices of the rocks in the world!",

"Back in the day, the Demonkin ruled the Lingxia Realm mightily, and we from the Human Race were nothing but slaves, the Cai Clan at best."

"It can be said that before His Majesty the Human Emperor, this place was a barren wilderness. It was His Majesty the Human Emperor who completed the path of Cultivation, innovated old ideas, and even opened many new paths."

"There are no born-knowers in this world. After years of seeking and exploring, I ultimately found the answer deep within the tomb of His Majesty the Human Emperor in the Yin Manor."

"It turns out, His Majesty the Human Emperor was not a native of the Lingxia Realm but a strong being from the Main World who, after losing a battle against a formidable opponent, had no choice but to be reborn into the Lingxia Realm using a Secret Technique. That's why His Majesty inherently carried the innate wisdom for Cultivation."
