C3150 Mystery of Imprints 1
"I've already seen it. Everyone move to the front of the Inheritance Cliff. This is the work of the ancient sages. This is a law that doesn't discriminate between talent or race. Any living being can comprehend it and everything depends on luck. Go!"
"You're the future of the Nine Cloud Clan. Elder Tian Jizi, find the Earth Vein and seal the mountain for a month. Leave an entrance."
Gu Huang stood in the air with his hands behind his back. His robes fluttered in the wind as he gave off a powerful aura.
"Yes, Clan Master." Tian Jizi's figure floated in the air and flew in all directions. He had already retrieved the array he had set up in the Night Race last time. Now, all he needed to do was find the Earth Vein node, and he could instantly cover it.
The four thousand disciples and nine Elders all arrived at the Cliff of Dao Comprehension. Regardless of whether they did it on purpose or not, they all sat down and started to ponder.
"Young master, can I also cultivate the Confucianism technique?" Chi Ling'er looked at the four thousand people sitting cross-legged. She knew that this was a great opportunity. The Confucianism technique had many countermeasures against the Asura Race. If there were three thousand scholars who spoke the truth, it would be enough to destroy a hundred thousand troops of the Asura Race.
"Regardless of race or talent, anyone can comprehend it. This was what the Sacred Lord of my race said, but how much you can comprehend depends on your own fortune. If you're interested, you can go and comprehend it. "
Gu Huang smiled slightly. This was destined to be a change, a change that would sweep across the north. Xue Yun, no matter where you are or what you have done, by the time you return, it will be too late for you to change.
"Alright, I'll go." Chi Ling'er's figure disappeared in an instant. She chose a corner with no one around and sat down cross-legged, looking at the scripture on the cliff.
The figure of the Death-Wishing Daoist gently floated to Gu Huang's side and sighed, "Brother, if you had planned everything three years ago, there might still be a chance for you to survive. You can use this Natural Qi to gather the thoughts of the people and condense the Qi of Human Dao. You might be able to suppress the ten thousand demons, but it's a little too late now!"
"No, I will not give up until the last moment, and I will give hope to the people, and as long as they have hope, I will fight."
Gu Huang had already chosen not to escape or retreat, because there was no way to retreat, no way to dodge, and he already had the trump card to fight against the Destiny Empyrean. If he still did not dare to fight for it, then how could he talk about the future?
"Alright! I will accompany you to the end. At least in my lifetime, I will do something meaningful. Brother, keep this thing well. It might be useful in the future."
The Death-Wishing Daoist took out the ancient bronze box, which was the last trump card of the Demon Sealers. The old Daoist had a feeling that only Gu Huang could perfectly unleash the power within.
"Senior, what do you mean by this? This is the trump card of the Demon Sealers. If you give it to me, what will you do?" Gu Huang looked at the Daoist priest with confusion. He felt that this old Daoist priest was hiding some sort of secret in his heart.
"Brother, my time is up. I won't be able to live much longer. I'm afraid I won't be able to live long enough. This is the fate of my Demon Sealer bloodline. I've never taken in a disciple in my life because I don't want this destiny to continue. Brother, take it!"
The Death-Wishing Daoist placed the ancient box in Gu Huang's hand, took out a jar of wine, and drank it down. What was going to happen would happen in the end, no matter what.
"The end? Senior, your joke isn't funny at all. You're an ancient Human King and even normal humans can live for seven or eight thousand years. If you add some precious herbs, it won't be a problem to live for ten thousand years. Your blood and Qi are abundant and your life force is vigorous. Gu Sheng can break through you at any time, so how can there be a limit?"
Gu Huang's expression was filled with curiosity. He did not believe what the old Daoist said at all. He could tell with a glance that a person's lifespan was not up yet.
"Brother, it's not that your life has come to an end, but a curse! None of the ancestors of my bloodline have ever lived in Gu Sheng. Do you know that I have cut off my own cultivation several times, and even destroyed my foundation, but in less than a hundred years, I will still recover. No matter how much I seek death, I won't die. This is why I am known for seeking death. "
The Death-Wishing Priest sighed. He seemed to be extremely depressed. He had been suffering in the curse for eight thousand years. He didn't want to live anymore.
"Is there really such a strange thing? Senior, find a place and let me take a closer look." Gu Huang was extremely curious. He had traveled across ten thousand worlds and was very knowledgeable, but he had never encountered such a strange thing.
The Death-Wishing Daoist nodded his head. This brat's inheritance was deep and his origins were mysterious. Perhaps he could find the source of the curse on his body. The two of them then arrived at the third peak of the Nine Cloud Sect.
"Brother, go ahead!"
"Sorry." Gu Huang's eyes lit up with a bright silver light, and a terrifying divine will spread out, instantly enveloping the body of the Death-Wishing Daoist. inch by inch, inch by inch, his flesh and blood, inch by inch, his soul, were all spied on by Gu Huang. It was as if he was extracting silk from a cocoon, and not a single part was left out.
The Dao Origin Core had reached the late stages of the Dao Origin Core Realm and the three flowers had gathered together. His body was strong and full of blood. He didn't have any signs of a curse at all.
Helpless, Gu Huang could only retract his Divine Sense, "Senior, there's nothing wrong with you. Where did your lifespan come from?"
"Brother, although I am not Gu Sheng and can see the world with a single thought, I also have a faint feeling that this is not the first or second time, but every three to five days in the past few months, I will feel my life fade away and my soul disappear into the endless darkness."
The Death-Wishing Daoist knew that his feeling was not wrong. At their level, they had already begun to sense life and death.
"Senior, you said that your ancestors died every time they broke through to the Saint Origin Stage. How did they die? Did anything happen when they died?"
Gu Huang thought hard. At the level of the Death-Wishing Daoist, he could indeed sense the changes in the world and his own fate.
"Yes, every time my ancestor died, this inheritance mark would appear on the successor of the next generation. It's said that this mark contains the ultimate meaning of my bloodline, but I'm too dumb to understand it."
Daoist Death Pursuit took off his robe and revealed the black inheritance mark that covered his upper body.
Gu Huang looked at the inheritance imprint in front of him. At first glance, it looked exactly the same as the Fourth Paragon's imprint, but there were still one or two slight differences. After all, the nine supreme imprint represented the evolution of the extreme Dao. Even Old Huo had said that this was not a real inheritance imprint, but a fake. The fact that the supreme imprint had moved was enough to explain everything.
But the question was, since the true mark was on his body, then where did the black mark come from, whose inheritance was it, and what was its purpose?
Gu Huang observed the imprint on the body of the person seeking death. This pattern was as messy as a ghost drawing talisman. Even though his attainments in the rune were quite deep, he still felt a headache. There was no pattern at all, it was as if it was randomly pieced together, and he didn't even know where it started.
Whether it was the rune or the Dao seal, they were all manifestations of different degrees of Great Dao. There would always be a trace that could be found. Even if it was a naturally born Heavenly Talisman, there would always be a meridian that could see the whole picture, unlike this mess.
"Senior, let me think about your imprint." Gu Huang sat down cross-legged and focused his mind on his heart. In an instant, he arrived in front of the Blood of Heaven. The crimson Blood Crystal was still sealed by the nine great imprints.
Looking at the fourth imprint, Gu Huang compared the two. The complete Fourth Supreme Imprint had eighty-one meridians. One could clearly hear it, and it seemed to have infinite numbers. There was a trace of the aura of the Great Dao within it, representing the Holy Light, the light that could destroy all darkness and evil.
Compared to it, Gu Huang finally understood. No wonder it was like a ghost drawing talisman, without any clues to follow. There were even one or two slight differences. The root of this imprint did not form the nine extreme, which was why it seemed to be in a mess and extremely chaotic.
"How is it, brother? Did you see anything?" When the Death-Wishing Daoist saw Gu Huang open his eyes, he was filled with concern. This concerned his life and death, so who wouldn't care?
"Senior, I remember that you said that every time the Ancestral Master fell, the inheritance would automatically appear in the next generation, right? If I'm not wrong, more than eighty generations have passed since the birth of the imprint, and you are the eighty-first generation, right? "
Gu Huang's expression was extremely serious. This matter was getting more and more troublesome, and he was afraid that the Death-Wishing Daoist was the core of the imprint. Once the limit of nine was reached, the core law would appear, and the imprint would represent darkness and death. Don't forget that the Death-Wishing Daoist was proficient in the techniques of the shadow creatures.
Now, he finally understood the natural opposition of the nine supreme imprints when they first appeared.
"Brother, you're right. I'm the 81st generation, but what does that mean?" The Death-Wishing Daoist paused. This was definitely related to him.
"Indeed, Senior. You have the inheritances of the three sects, the Flower of Righteousness, the Flower of Subduing Demons, and the Flower of Pure Air, and you almost never use your full strength. You're suppressing the darkness in your heart."
Gu Huang analyzed the situation step by step. This explained why the old Daoist knew the laws of the shadow beings and why he inherited the Three Sects' inheritance. It was to resist the invasion of darkness.
"Sigh! Brother, you.... You really know how to predict things. That's right.... I've already been attacked by darkness and had to use the Three Sects to suppress it, but once I collapse I don't know what I'll become. "
The priest drank the wine and frowned. His biggest secret had been seen through, but he had to face it.
"This is the source. Senior, do you know that the mark on your body isn't the true Sovereign mark? It looks almost the same, but it's actually different. The true Fourth Sovereign mark represents the law of light, and the mark on your body is missing a core law. If I'm not wrong, you're the core. When you die, the darkness will awaken and the mark will activate, and you will be assimilated by the darkness."
"Someone used the life and soul of your eightieth generation patriarch to construct an imprint, and then borrowed your body to create it when the imprint succeeded. I have to say that this is really a big move. If I hadn't seen the true Fourth Supreme Imprint before, I wouldn't have been able to see anything unusual. If I'm not wrong, there is definitely a Dark Life Form hidden in your imprint."
Ancient Shadow suddenly stood up, and his gaze became incomparably cold. This was the source of disaster and chaos, and he had to get rid of it.
"What..." The Death-Wishing Priest's entire body trembled. He did not doubt Gu Huang's words at all, because there was no need for Gu Huang to lie to him.
"Senior, there's no need to panic. I think that as long as it's by your side, the thing inside won't dare to act rashly. It will even hide itself tightly and block off all external senses."
Gu Huang stroked the ancient bronze box in his hand with a cold smile on his face.
