Chapter 33: The Origin of the Curse
Seeing the skeleton drawing the appearance of the dark element body, Qi Wanli was like falling into an ice kiln, and the whole body was cold.
In this world, apart from himself, there is only one person who knows that he is symbiotic with Dark Yuan, called Yan Xuan, and he is dead. Other than that, he didn't even tell Bai Qiyu!
"This guy is a strict selection?!"
Qi Wanli had such a question in his heart, but he quickly denied it.
If Yan Xuan really "lived" in this weird way, it is estimated that the first moment he saw himself, he would try his best to kill himself......
What's more, this skeleton should be the one he saw in the gap in the space, so it is very likely that it is the person who stole the mysterious divine stone a hundred years ago, and at that time, Yanxuan's grandfather was probably still breastfeeding.
So what kind of person or thing is it?!
Qi Wanli subconsciously had the urge to escape, but in this ghost place, where is there a place to escape? Not to mention that he is now completely lost, but the skeleton obviously has a strong power, and he can't escape.
He could only take deep breaths repeatedly, suppressing all kinds of anxiety in his heart.
The skeleton said that it could not tell Qi Wanli anything, and that everything could only be understood by itself.
What does this mean? What does it have to comprehend for itself? Why can't it say anything?
Moreover, how could the mobile phone that I lost when I fell into a deep ditch end up in the pool of blood?
Qi Wanli not only did not get the feeling of being solved, but more doubts emerged.
He was severely frightened by the fact that the skeleton knew about the dark element, but seeing that it didn't seem to have any malicious intent, he slowly calmed down a little, and asked tentatively, "You want to say, you know...... Dark Element?"
The skeleton giggled and seemed to nod in satisfaction.
Qi Wanli calmed down a little and said, "Let me guess...... You are in the Bloody Hell, you can enter and exit the maelstrom freely, you can even take me down here, you can protect me, I don't know what state you are in now, but you should have been a normal human before, and you were extremely powerful...... Ninth Order?"
The skeleton crossed its hands, noncommittal.
Seeing that it didn't react, Qi Wanli could only continue to analyze: "I once came here in the deepest part of my consciousness, at that time, I saw countless walking corpses walking in the pool of blood, but this time there was nothing......; It's only a few days behind in terms of time, and it happens to be the few days since I came here, and you and I have a deep relationship?"
The skeleton tilted its head, still not giving a clear answer.
Qi Wanli narrowed his eyes, thinking that he had guessed something on the outside.
He had now completely calmed down and reasoned, "It's interesting that you went outside the maelstrom not long ago, and it seems that you injured the woman outside the maelstrom, but when you saw me coming, you got into the maelstrom, and it seems that you deliberately led me down. The most important thing is that at that time, you should not be in this state of skeletons, but flesh and blood...... Could it be that you are only in this bloody hell that you will be this skeleton?"
Hearing this question, the skeleton nodded approvingly, the green fire in its eye socket beating slightly.
"That's true!"
Qi Wanli's eyes lit up, and he said: "Assuming that what I just guessed is correct, then, you should have been 'dead' in the Blood Swamp Prison for a long time, because of my arrival, you have 'lived' again, but you must bring me here, because you have a deep relationship with me, or this place and me, you need me to come here, because it is very important to you......"
"You show me my phone and tell me that you know the existence of the dark element, which is constantly emphasizing this relationship, I have a deep relationship with here, I have a deep relationship with you. But why do you need me here?"
He didn't wait for the skeleton to react before he continued.
"I said before that the task assigned to me by the Star Keeper was to let me enter the maelstrom, even though she didn't know that there was such a blood swamp hell underneath, didn't know that there was a deep connection between you and me, but she knew that there was something here that could solve the curse of the Abyss Emissary and the curse of their family's bloodline, so she let me do it. ”
"What about you? Why are you? Is it because you have the same goal, or do you want to do different things but have the same goal? What's more interesting is that you and I have a deep connection, but it has something to do with solving their curse, so what is the relationship between me and them?"
Hearing this, the skeleton nodded slowly again.
It endorsed Qi Wanli's speculation.
"Speaking of which, one thing suddenly occurred to me. ”
Qi Wanli said leisurely, his voice was a little cold and a little excited: "Dark Yuan said, the star speaker seems to have something to do with one of my relatives...... Could it be you?!"
However, at this time, the skeleton giggled and shook its head.
Qi Wanli frowned, slightly disappointed.
At this moment, the skeleton repeated the same action it had done before, it nodded at Qi Wanli's eyebrows, and then pointed at itself.
"What the hell does this mean?"
He still didn't get it.
Suddenly, he breathed and thought of something else.
"Wait...... Your body is empty and a skeleton, and it is impossible to hide anything, so where did the thing I saw you holding before, go?
Qi Wanli asked with a twinkle in his eyes.
The skeleton was stunned, as if it didn't expect him to suddenly think of this question, and after reacting, it looked up to the sky again and "laughed" wildly.
After "laughing" for a while, it bowed its head slightly, stretched out a finger, and tapped its head.
Qi Wanli's eyes froze.
Even though the skeleton was expressionless, he could see a feeling similar to a "sly dry smile".
"Dark Yuan said that the Mystery Divine Stone essentially represents an extremely advanced energy conversion model...... The essence of all magical and strange cultivation secret methods is an energy conversion formula. He said in a cold voice, "You can 'live' it...... Is it because you put the Mystic Divine Stone into your skull and use its advanced energy conversion mode to provide yourself with new life?!"
"That's why you're free to enter and exit the maelstrom?!"
Qi Wanli himself didn't believe what he said, this was a completely unfounded speculation, but the skeleton's "expression" and movements couldn't help but make him think of such a possibility.
What I didn't expect was that the skeleton actually nodded!
It struck its head with its fingerbones, making a sound like hitting metal, and its teeth kept fighting, as if it was smiling very happily.
Qi Wanli was going crazy, excited and frightened.
He couldn't imagine what kind of existence the skeleton in front of him was, and many years after his death, he was able to put the Divine Stone in his head to bring himself back to life!
"Let me guess again......" He laughed excitedly as he looked at the skeleton in front of him.
It's as if a century-old problem is in front of you, waiting for you to discover the truth little by little!
He spoke very quickly, "The goal of the Star Speaker is to solve the curse. The so-called bloodline curse of their family will not care about it for now, let's talk about the problem of the abyss envoy first, when the dark yuan saw the abyss secret method, he told me that the secret method has a problem, it is incomplete, if you cultivate, as long as you are not in the sea environment, your luck will always be lost, which is also the reason why those abyss envoys who left the sea eventually died violently, so the answer to this problem is on the mysterious divine stone in your head!"
"The Mystic Divine Stone can allow the observer to obtain endless knowledge and mysteries, and the secret method is incomplete, it is precisely because you stole the Mystery Divine Stone that future generations cannot learn the orthodox abyss secret method, they can only learn from the professor's summary of the predecessors, even if there is such an existence as the Sea Monster Supreme Master, in one or two hundred years, as long as the memory of the old-timers has a little deviation, or the secret method has been changed self-righteously, it may actually have adverse consequences!"
"So in fact you ...... That's the origin of the curse of the Abyss Emissaries!"
Qi Wanli pointed to the skeleton and said categorically!
The skeleton shrugged its shoulders, looking indifferent, but not affirmative or negative.
Judging from the performance just now, this is most likely true.
"It's good that we finally solved a problem. Qi Wanli squinted and smiled: "Next, let's solve the second question, who are you?"
"I think you're someone I know or know. All your performances are telling me that you know me very well and know my deepest secrets, and the reason why you do this cannot be just to show off, but to hope that I will understand who you really are. ”
"However, I thought about it again and again, how could I possibly know a ninth-order master more than a hundred years ago? Moreover, when you held me in the maelstrom, I even smelled a familiar smell, but I couldn't remember it, it was really weird. ”
So, I made two assumptions. ”
Qi Wanli said as he spoke, his voice was a little cold, and it seemed that the next guess made him a little uneasy.
"First, actually, it's not the first time I've woken up. ”
He held up a finger and said with a cold breath: "Maybe more than a hundred years ago, I have already woken up once, I have walked in this world, seen and cultivated, been here, seen you, and even had a deep relationship with you. But for some reason, I lost all my memories, returned to my original state, and went to that cave in the Black Rock Mountains of the Nanlin Peninsula, where I slept again for a hundred years. ”
"That explains why this place is in the depths of my consciousness, why you seem to have a strong connection with me, and why I feel familiar with you. ”
The skeleton, however, shook its head.
"Isn't it?"
Qi Wanli smiled bitterly.
He held up a second finger and said, "The second hypothesis...... I really don't want to be the second hypothesis. ”
"I think the second possibility is that in the three hundred years that I have been asleep, you have seen me, found me, and even the dark element parasitized me, which has a certain relationship with you. In other words, I was 'arranged' by you, and before you died, you made arrangements for me, waiting for me to come here again, find you, and then, be used by you......"
