Chapter 2238: Chapter 2238
Su Yang sat cross-legged, concentrating fully, using the method told by the masked man to sense the Power of Saint and the location of the Xuanyuan Sword.
After a long time, Su Yang finally sensed a faint aura. He immediately commanded Little Turtle to hurry in that direction.
As they got closer, Little Turtle became noticeably restless and uneasy. Su Yang also felt an inexplicable pressure that made the pores on his body feel cold.
Could it be that there is some danger in this deep sea?
Suddenly, two huge Light Balls appeared in front of them, like the sun and moon in the sky.
Little Turtle stopped immediately, and Su Yang was also full of vigilance.
These Light Balls were clearly not ordinary light, nor were they the sun and moon, looking more like something's eyes.
So far away, yet so bright, and so large; just how enormous must this thing be?
Most importantly, while Su Yang felt an inexplicable fear, he couldn't perceive the presence of this thing at all. This indicates that the opponent's strength is above theirs!
Moreover, the surroundings were enveloped in darkness, seemingly capable of devouring all light. Even Su Yang, with his strength, couldn't see anything here, leaving him astonished.
The thing gazed at Su Yang and Little Turtle for a while, then an elder voice slowly came: "The road ahead is blocked, go back!"
Upon hearing the voice, Su Yang immediately jumped out of Little Turtle's shell and said urgently: "Senior, we are members of the Human Clan. We came to seek the Xuanyuan Sword left by the Human Emperor Xuanyuan. We..."
"How dare you!" An angry rebuke interrupted, followed by a sudden undercurrent that swept Su Yang and Little Turtle into the air.
A powerful pressure appeared instantly, suppressing Su Yang and Little Turtle as if to crush them to death.
"Saints must not be insulted!" the elder voice roared in anger, "You dare to offend the Saints, you are courting death!"
Feeling the powerful force compressing him to the point of breaking, Su Yang still said loudly, "Senior, the Human World is in crisis, and I only wish to fight for the Human World. The Eight Realms Saints could invade the Human World at any time, intending to kill all living beings without sparing a soul. I came to disturb the relics of the Saint out of necessity, to fight for the Human World. I hold the Saints in high respect, but the current situation is dire. The Saint fought bravely and died for the Human World, an admired hero for all in the Human World. I disturbed the Saint today for the Human World's sake, I hope the Saint would not blame me!"
In the darkness, the presence remained silent for a long time, and the pressure on Su Yang and Little Turtle finally eased significantly.
"What has happened to the Human World?" the elder voice asked.
Not daring to delay, Su Yang immediately recounted the events in the Human World, including the earlier breaking of the Eight Realms Boundary Point and the invasion of the Human World by the Seven Realms.
After hearing Su Yang's words, the presence was silent for a long time before speaking again, "With the attraction of the Divine Artifact, the Eight Realms Saints could enter the Human World at any moment and kill all in it. Even if you obtain the Xuanyuan Sword, you are no match for the Eight Realms Saints. So why not send that Su Zhan into the Endless Starry Sky? That way, the Eight Realms Saints would have to go to the Endless Starry Sky for the Divine Artifact, sparing the Human World from danger!"
Su Yang frowned and, after a long silence, replied in a low voice, "This is my selfishness. Su Zhan is my father, and I cannot watch him die . Therefore, I must fight with all my might!"
With a soft crack, Su Yang suddenly felt a rich aura appear before him. He was momentarily stunned, as suddenly, the darkness was filled with brilliant light, revealing a massive dragon head not far ahead of him.
What truly shocked Su Yang was that beneath and all around them was the dragon's lengthy body, the giant dragon's body.
This meant that all the surrounding darkness was due to this colossal dragon. Su Yang and the others had entered a small chamber formed by the winding of this dragon's body, resulting in this situation!
Su Yang was utterly shocked; just how enormous was this dragon? Was there such a heaven-defying existence in the North Sea?
The dragon gazed at Su Yang for a long time before speaking in a cold voice, "Because of your selfishness, would you have the entire Human Clan buried with you? Do you think this is reasonable?"
Su Yang lowered his head and said in a solemn voice, "I know this is wrong, but that is my father, and I can only be selfish this once. Therefore, I will never leave the Human World. After sending the World Melting Furnace to Storm Valley, I will personally remain in the Human World, with all its people, and fight to the end, using this life to make amends for my actions!"
"Hmph, make amends?" the dragon said coldly, "Can your life make up for billions of human lives?"
Su Yang replied, "I know, even laying down my life cannot compensate for one in a billion. But I can only be that selfish!" Su Yang lifted his head to look at the dragon, "I will never allow any harm to come to my father!"
The dragon swayed slowly beside Su Yang, as if gauging him or pondering something. Finally, it sighed softly, "Indeed, a filial son. Back then, the Human Emperor Xuanyuan faced a similar choice, and his choice was the same as yours. Therefore, he ultimately fought valiantly for the Human World and died. Otherwise, with his strength, even the combined might of the Eight Realms Saints could not match him if he wished to escape."
Su Yang was taken aback. He did not know that the Human Emperor Xuanyuan had once faced a similar situation.
"If the Saint were still alive, he would support you in this!" the dragon said softly, "In that case, I won't stop you. But I advise you: Even the Human Emperor Xuanyuan died fighting back then, what is the point of you fighting this hopeless battle?"
Su Yang replied, "The Human World is weak, far less than the Eight Realms. But we in the Human World have never conceded, and that's how we've persisted to this day! Knowing the outcome doesn't mean we won't fight. If that were the case, the Human World would have ceased to exist long ago; how could we have survived until now?"
The dragon was taken aback and then laughed heartily, "Good boy, you sure have a way with words. Alright, I won't argue with you. You can go in. However, let me warn you, the Saint's weapon is not something anyone can wield. Whether you can obtain the Xuanyuan Sword depends on whether it acknowledges you. If it doesn't acknowledge you, I can't help you then!"
"Thank you, senior!" Su Yang bowed deeply.
