"Why else? It's because Master is not sure that he can come back alive from the Xuanhuang battlefield."
After hearing Wutan's question, Taishi Lei Wang's face suddenly showed a trace of sadness. In an instant, he seemed to have turned into an old man in his twilight years.
He said that the horror of the Xuanhuang battlefield was beyond imagination.
I remember that more than 5,000 years ago, Master led countless heroes into the Xuanhuang battlefield, ready to kill all the alien creatures. What was the result? Only a few people returned, and they all returned with serious injuries!
"So horrible?" Wutan and Yun Yuting were horrified when they heard this.
Taishi Lei Wang nodded and said, "It's very scary. This time, the Ice Demon Lord is leading the team personally, but Master is still not completely sure. For safety reasons, he temporarily gave the manual to me for safekeeping."
Wu Tian was slightly stunned, and asked anxiously: "Do you know the Ice Demon Lord?"
When the Ice Demon Lord was mentioned, Taishi Lei Wang was full of admiration and said in a powerful voice, "Of course, he is a mythical figure from ancient times. Who doesn't know him? But his coming to the East Region was kept secret, and only a few people knew about it."
Wu Tian nodded.
Ever since he obtained the Essence of Earth from the Demon Sealing Pond that day, Wutan began to suspect that the Ice Demon Lord might have left it for him on purpose.
This is not difficult to explain.
Just think about it, with the Ice Demon Lord's cultivation level, and the fact that he was sealed in the Demon Sealing Pond for countless years, it is impossible for him to be unaware of the Earth Essence, so there is only one explanation, and that is to fulfill his wish.
Even if the Ice Demon Lord is unaware of this, Wutan still owes this person a favor.
"Xuanhuang battlefield..."
Wutan's eyes flickered. The two people who had done him a favor were both in the Xuanhuang battlefield. It seemed that he had to improve his strength as quickly as possible and then enter the place that even Taishi Lei Wang would change color at the mention of.
Of course, he didn't simply want to help the Ice Demon Lord and the other two, his main purpose was to find the element of light.
Thinking of this, Wu Tian couldn't help but ask: "Senior, do you know the whereabouts of the Source of Light?"
Upon hearing this, Taishi Lei Wang was not surprised at all. He had obviously expected this. He smiled and said, "Master has also been looking for it over the years, but has never found anything. According to Master's final estimate, the Light Origin is very likely in the Xuanhuang Battlefield, or the Tiandi Battlefield."
"There is also a battlefield between heaven and earth?" Wu Tian was surprised.
Taishi Lei Wang nodded and sighed, "The Heaven and Earth Battlefield is located above the Xuanhuang Battlefield. It is a hell of the God of Death. Since the opening of the Eastern Region, only a handful of people have entered it. Moreover, they were all the strongest people in the Eastern Region. However, in the end, no one could return alive."
Wutan and Yun Yuting looked at each other, with shock in their eyes undisguised.
Before, they thought that the Xuanhuang battlefield should be the last stop. After all, even the Dragon King was not sure about it, so one can imagine how dangerous it was.
Unexpectedly, there is a place even more terrifying than the Xuanhuang battlefield.
"Okay, I won't say any more nonsense. You can see the roster, but you can't take it away." Taishi Lei Wang smiled. Once upon a time, when he learned about the battlefield of heaven and earth from his master, he also showed the same expression.
In the blink of an eye, tens of thousands of years have passed. He is no longer the child he used to be, and the Eastern Region is no longer the united and determined Eastern Region.
Wutan reached out and grabbed the manual. Just as he was about to open it, he hesitated.
The manual was written by Jiao Huang himself, and he is the only one in the world who knows its contents. If he opens it now, he will become the second person.
If there really was some important information recorded in it and he read it, it would mean that if any accident happened in the future, he would have to take responsibility.
However, as long as the spy is found, hundreds of millions of military merits can be obtained, which is equivalent to several Five Tribulations Holy Weapons. This seems more tempting.
Finally, Wutan couldn't resist the temptation of hundreds of millions of military merits, and he opened the cover. What he saw were ancient and profound texts, and he could vaguely sense the deep sorrow and sadness.
He could even understand that every time the Dragon King wrote these words, he was struggling and hesitating.
Perhaps the Dragon King was forced by the situation to write this manual, and he was probably unwilling to do so!
The characters were extremely profound and difficult to understand, but when Wujitia's fingers touched these characters, pieces of information suddenly flooded into his mind like a tide.
"Shangxuan Zun, a dual spirit of fire and wood, a Saint-level weapon refiner, his cultivation is at the initial stage of the celestial being, he holds the Five Tribulations Holy Weapon Sky-breaking Shuttle in his hands, he fought with me in the ancient battlefield, he is one of the greatest contributors to the opening up of the Eastern Region, but he has a violent temper and is easily angered..."
"On this day, 100,000 years after the opening up of the Eastern Region, he and I had our first disagreement. We fought to the death in the Xuanhuang battlefield, and finally stopped after being persuaded by the three Zhongxuan Saints. However, because of this, a gap between us grew, and we no longer had the tacit understanding we had before..."
"Today, several young people wanted to enter the battlefield to investigate the situation and prepare for the future attack. I strongly disagreed. After all, the battlefield is too scary. It's so scary that it makes me panic. However, the four saints raised their hands in agreement and held a unified opinion. I was powerless to stop them. I could only tell the young people to be careful..."
"Time flies. Another five thousand years have passed. The few young men who entered the battlefield of heaven and earth have not returned yet. They must have died on the battlefield!"
"Today, news came from the Xuanhuang battlefield that the Cang Demon King was surrounded and killed by alien creatures. I heard the news and wanted to rush to rescue him immediately, but I didn't expect the Upper Xuan Saint and the Lower Xuan Saint to come forward to stop me and trick me to another place. A young man with a bright future was buried in the Xuanhuang battlefield. I am so sad!"
After learning the information that flooded into his mind, Wutan finally understood why the Dragon King wrote this manual with such complicated feelings.
There are so many grievances and grudges recorded in it.
Similarly, he also understood why the Dragon King had repeatedly warned Taishi Lei Wang not to let this manual be exposed to the world.
The manual contains information about all high-level figures in the Eastern Region, and it is very detailed.
For example, the level of cultivation, spiritual body, weapons, personality, grudges, friends and enemies are all clearly recorded on it.
Just imagine, what impact would it have if these contents were exposed to the world
Once exposed, the background information of all the high-level figures in the Eastern Region would be exposed to the sun, and there would be no privacy at all.
By then, not only will they be furious and join forces to deal with the Dragon King, but even the creatures in the Western Region will not miss this opportunity and will take the opportunity to launch a fierce attack. By then, there will be no doubt that the Eastern Region will fall.
As the saying goes, knowing yourself and your enemy, you can fight a hundred battles without danger. This is the truth.
In fact, Wutan understood the meaning of what the Dragon Emperor did.
He did not want to control these people, but to grasp the overall situation and prevent anyone from causing trouble in the Eastern Region. However, he did not expect that the spy would be so smart and easily escaped his eyes and ears.
Wu Tian shook his head and sighed, "What Jiao Huang did is truly righteous, and most of the others, such as the Four Saints, are just parasites who only care about their own selfish interests in my opinion."
Then, Wutan placed the manual on the coffee table and returned it to Taishi Lei Wang.
Yun Yuting, who was standing by, saw Wutan's face full of emotion and raised her hand curiously, reaching for the manual, but at this moment, Wutan slapped her away without any hesitation.
Of course, he didn't use any strength, but it still caused Yun Yuting's dissatisfaction.
"There are some things you can't just look at randomly, otherwise it will bring you fatal disaster." Wutan said expressionlessly, and then he ignored Yun Yuting with flaming eyes and stared at the manual in a daze.
From the Dragon King's manual, he learned a lot of information, such as information about the ancestors of several major sects such as the Sword Sect. This was a good gain for Wutan.
There is also the cause of death of King Cang Mo. As he expected, there is another mystery behind it. However, at present, he is unable to investigate the truth. He can only wait until he is qualified to enter the Xuanhuang battlefield in the future.
However, the amount of information in the manual is very large and cannot be digested in a short time.
The most urgent task for Wutan is to rush to command the battlefield and implement his plan. Anyway, the contents of the manual are already stored in his mind and will not disappear, so he can check it slowly later.
After Taishi Lei Wang put away the manual, Wu Tian took out the Hunter King medals of several people, placed them on the coffee table, and said with a faint smile: "Senior, thank you for your help."
"kindness?"
King Taishi Lei was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized: "Before, before King Kongbi Ming came, Gu Tian came to me and said that he had instructed me to exchange the Commander's Medal. I guess he had instructed you!"
Wu Tian smiled but said nothing.
"What a difficult little bastard."
After looking at Wu Tian deeply for a long time, Tai Shi Lei Wang groaned weakly and said in a deep voice: "Although I don't know what you are planning, I hope you can find the spy as soon as possible and eradicate this cancer!"
Wutan rolled his eyes and said, if spies were so easy to find, you wouldn’t have been looking for them for so many years without any results.
"If it were someone else, I would still be skeptical, but you are Wujitan, so I believe in you, and I believe even more in the vision of my master and the Demon Emperor Shuntian." Taishi Lei Wang smiled brilliantly, grabbed a few medals, opened the stone door of the secret room, and strode out.
Hearing this, Wutan burst into laughter. This was really a weird reason!
Yun Yuting asked, "Wutian, why did you ask Gu Tian to rush to command the battlefield in advance?"
Wu Tian looked at it and did not answer.
Yun Yuting's face darkened, her jade hands clenched into fists, and she suppressed her anger and scolded, "Don't look at me like that. What I want is for you to tell me the truth."
"Don't be impatient. This is not the place to talk. I will tell you slowly after we get to Shangxuan City." After thinking for a while, Wutan smiled slightly and said this, which made Yun Yuting really angry.
"Then you can always tell me what is recorded in the Dragon King's manual. Don't worry, I promise you that I will keep it a secret and won't even reveal a word to you, my senior brother." Yun Yuting said confidently with a look of curiosity on her face.
Wu Tian asked: "Have you ever heard a saying?"
"What?"
"Curiosity kills the cat."
"Go to hell."
Yun Yuting was immediately furious, her beautiful eyes widened, gritting her teeth, and she was almost furious. If she hadn't taken into account the difference between men and women, she would have pounced on Wutan and fought to the death.
Then, she stopped asking questions because she realized that no matter how she pressed him, Wutan would not reveal a single word to her.
