Chapter 696 599: You Can Make It Here, But You Can't Leave
"I indeed have not heard of the Lord of Origin, I only know that this is the Cosmic Origin."
"The Lord of Origin is here to help manage the entire origin of the Cosmic Origin, can you understand this concept?
Because within the origin, there are many lords who are responsible for safeguarding every inch, of course, these guys will also internally kill and annex each other.
You hadn't thought of this, right?"
"I truly hadn't considered this because the lords I encountered before seemed unfamiliar with each other, I originally thought they all had their own duties.
Everyone is part of the origin, it seemed like there wasn't much to compete over, but now it seems I still understand too little."
Zhao Yi spoke with the stones as he walked forward, and soon came upon a beautifully crafted palace before him.
Upon entering the palace, Zhao Yi discovered that what greeted them was no longer the stones, but a living person, whose appearance was very handsome.
He looked better built than Zhao Yi, which made Zhao Yi a bit jealous, but Zhao Yi didn't say anything, and they sat down after introductions.
Zhao Yi learned through introductions that this person was named Shi Wangxian, the master of this world.
After Zhao Yi introduced himself, the other party smiled.
"I had long heard of your name, for you to reach this stage after breaking through many trials, is truly not an easy task.
Many have tried to take these defective remains, but few succeed, reaching here means you already achieved more than halfway."
The other party spoke while instructing their people to serve a feast, and after it started, Zhao Yi didn't hold back and ate ferociously.
After resting for a day in the world, Zhao Yi planned to leave, but Shi Wangxian quietly persuaded Zhao Yi, initially feeling a bit awkward.
Later, he found whenever he mentioned leaving, the other person's expression would change, and Zhao Yi realized he seemed to have fallen into a trap.
"It seems they want to use these things to keep us here, to prevent us from leaving, this should also be a tactic, unlike those previous guys.
They only pretend goodness on the surface, or directly reveal their fangs and confront us, wouldn't you say so?"
"Yes, I also just realized, since that's the case, we can only fight, there's no other way."
After finishing communication with the Nine Dragon Jade Seal in the spiritual world, Zhao Yi was ready, as time quickly reached the third night.
Zhao Yi and the Nine Dragon Jade Seal prepared to leave quietly, one reason being nighttime was more conducive to action, and another to test things.
To see if reality matched their expectations.
After Zhao Yi walked several hundred meters, Shi Wangxian appeared before him, with many stone people following.
The stone people held various weapons as they watched Zhao Yi.
"I treated you so well, yet you still wish to leave, it's truly incomprehensible, I hope you can stay so we can remain friends."
"I want to know one thing, why do you want to keep me here, are you also trying to stop me from catching those odd fish?
Why are you doing this? Can you tell me the reason?"
"The old cosmos's demise is inevitable, and the power will weaken more and more, our auxiliary intelligent strength will also gradually weaken.
But we will still make every effort to prevent this, you understand what I mean, right."
"I understand, it's like a person knowing they'll die, but still struggling to live one more day, since that's the case, we have nothing more to say."
As Zhao Yi finished speaking, those stone people attacked him, raising hands and directly throwing weapons at Zhao Yi, who originally thought they were just normal weapons.
But once the weapons touched the ground, they exploded powerfully, blowing the unprepared Zhao Yi far away.
In mid-air, Zhao Yi managed to stabilize with several clones, and before he could clear his mind, Shi Wangxian was already behind him, hand thrusting like a sharp sword towards Zhao Yi's chest.
Seeing this, Zhao Yi turned, attempting a side sweep to cut the opponent in half, but unexpectedly upon touching Shi Wangxian,
Shi Wangxian suddenly transformed into a flower, blocking the view around, and a fragrance wafted over.
Zhao Yi originally thought holding breath would prevent harm, but unexpectedly, the fragrance turned his skin black upon contact.
Zhao Yi immediately realized that the substance affected as soon as it touched skin, so he decisively commanded the Nine Dragon Jade Seal to unleash powerful water currents to wash everything away.
The air around instantly cleared, and those stone figurines one after another leaped from the ground into the air to attack Zhao Yi.
Faced with the stone people, Zhao Yi used brute force to disperse them one by one, originally thinking they would explode upon hitting the ground.
He quickly retreated but unexpectedly, the stone people reconnected mid-air.
Zhao Yi then realized they couldn't be defeated, and Shi Wangxian was already sitting afar on a cloud gesturing towards him.
With a serene and complacent look, he cheerfully said to Zhao Yi.
"See these stone people, they are those who were sealed in the Underworld for hundreds or thousands of years, if you comply now.
I can make you the second one like me, rather than becoming one of those stones."
"Old thing, spare me this talk, I don't buy it, I'd rather die than be coerced by you."
As Zhao Yi spoke, the Nine Dragon Jade Seal had transformed into a dragon, pouncing towards Shi Wangxian, who upon seeing this, waved his hand, flowers appeared around the Nine Dragon Jade Seal.
These flowers suddenly sharpened like blades and slid towards the Nine Dragon Jade Seal, but since the Nine Dragon Jade Seal was heart spirit manifested.
These things couldn't physically harm, and the Nine Dragon Jade Seal expelled strong currents, directly knocking Shi Wangxian from the cloud, causing him to land on the ground, slapping his body continuously.
The water discomforted him greatly, Zhao Yi noticed this, and an idea flashed through his mind, he immediately summoned back the Nine Dragon Jade Seal.
Infusing it with spiritual energy, the Nine Dragon Jade Seal sprayed water into the sky, soon clouds gathered and it began to rain heavily.
The formidable stone people dispersed in the rain, turning to stones falling to the ground.
Shi Wangxian, troubled by the downpour, was unable to use the Power of Laws.
He could only stare blankly at Zhao Yi, as Zhao Yi raised his middle finger at him.
"You can kill me, but don't shame me further."
