Chapter 370: Three People

Looking around, the originally chaotic surroundings of the Well of Heaven Ascension had become quiet.

Killing three crystal skeletons of the Immortal Court with one strike really shocked all those present.

The corpses of the three crystal skeletons were vaporized on the spot, leaving only the supreme scepter. It stood in the air, emitting a light, but it had no target to attack now.

Lin Jiufeng reached out and grabbed the supreme scepter. Then, he used his powerful True Qi and magic power to suppress it.

‘This is a top magic treasure of the Immortal Court. It’s as precious as the Eternal Dragon Boat. It can still remain unscathed under the attack of the Immortal Slaying Sword. This is enough to see how precious this magic treasure is.’ Lin Jiufeng naturally didn’t refuse to possess such a magic treasure.

Moreover, this was a treasure of the Immortal Court. To Lin Jiufeng, it added to his joy of collecting it.

Putting away the supreme scepter and the soul flames of the three crystal skeletons for future use, Lin Jiufeng looked at the crocodile ancestor.

The crocodile ancestor had a broken tail. Previously, it was filled with an aggressive aura and full of anger, wanting to bite Elder Universe into pieces.

But now, it was very quiet and stood there obediently.

“Crocodile Ancestor, is it?” Lin Jiufeng asked.

“Immortal King Lin, you can just call me Big Croc.” Crocodile Ancestor smiled dumbly, its ferocious and violent appearance from before gone.

Facing Lin Jiufeng, especially the Immortal Slaying Sword in his hand, the crocodile ancestor was willing to become Big Croc.

“It’s better to just call you Crocodile Ancestor,” Lin Jiufeng said indifferently.

“When did you start to guard the Well of Heaven Ascension?” Lin Jiufeng asked.

“50,000 years ago!” Crocodile Ancestor replied obediently.

“50,000 years ago? Why have you been guarding it for so long?” Lin Jiufeng asked curiously.

“Because my master ordered it,” Crocodile Ancestor replied.

Through Lin Jiufeng and the crocodile ancestor’s questions and answers, a lot of information was revealed.

The surrounding five-colored skeletons and crystal skeletons were listening attentively.

Now that Lin Jiufeng was suppressing the entire scene, no one dared to offend him. Hence, a rare peace was formed.

Elder Universe wasn’t worried anymore. He slipped behind Lin Jiufeng and stayed quietly, listening seriously.

Especially regarding the origins of the crocodile ancestor. Everyone was very concerned about this.

Now that it mentioned its master’s orders, it instantly attracted everyone’s attention.

“Who’s your master?” Lin Jiufeng asked the question in everyone’s hearts.

“I don’t remember.” The crocodile ancestor thought seriously and replied awkwardly.

“You don’t remember?” Lin Jiufeng frowned.

“I really don’t remember. When I came to the Death Realm, this place was in ruins. There weren’t so many five-colored skeletons here at all. At that time, it was the Wild Age of the Death Realm.”

“As for me, I was born in that era. I walked all over the Death Realm and finally discovered the Well of Heaven Ascension here. A voice appeared in my mind, telling me to guard the Well of Heaven Ascension and not let the skeletons of the Death Realm pass through.”

“That’s why I’ve been protecting it all this time. During this period, my strength also became stronger and stronger.”

The crocodile ancestor shared everything he knew. It was obvious that he was afraid that Lin Jiufeng would give him a strike.

It had been 50,000 years. For the sake of a voice in its mind, it had persevered for 50,000 years. This was already not easy. Now, it was unwilling to sacrifice itself for this voice.

Moreover, even if it sacrificed itself, it wouldn’t be able to stop Lin Jiufeng. Then, why should it sacrifice itself?

“You protected the Well of Heaven Ascension for 50,000 years for a voice in your mind?”

“Have you never thought of leaving?” Lin Jiufeng asked in surprise.

He admired the persistence of the past 50,000 years.

Especially when the Well of Heaven Ascension was right in front of it. It could actually leave the Death Realm and enter the mortal realm to live its own life.

But the crocodile ancestor didn’t. Instead, it completed it wholeheartedly.

“I will always be loyal to my master!” The crocodile ancestor replied firmly. Although it said out everything he knew now, this was because he was forced by the situation. But its loyalty to its master never changed.

Even if it didn’t know who its master was, it wouldn’t change its mind.

“50,000 years ago, that was an era even older than the Immortal Court,” Elder Universe expressed.

“Indeed. At that time, the Immortal Court still didn’t exist.” The crystal skeleton of the Giant City nodded.

“All the information regarding that era has been destroyed by the Immortal Court and no longer exists, so no one knows,” the crystal skeleton of the Beast King City sighed and said.

“This is also something that can’t be helped. It’s been too long, and that era has been completely buried in the dust of history,” the crystal skeleton of Asura City said.

The other skeletons were also discussing. They had all come to the Death Realm 20,000 years ago. The longest was only 30,000 to 40,000 years ago, and that was still during the era of the Immortal Court.

No one knew what kind of glorious era was before the Immortal Court era.

Only Lin Jiufeng and the bone dragon remained silent.

Lin Jiufeng knew that the era before the Immortal Court was called the Era of Spells. The mountain range here was something from the Era of Spells, and it had fallen deep into the Death Realm.

The bone dragon also knew this, because the blood-colored chains and the flowing spell runes that had always been sealed in its body came from that era.

But now wasn’t the time to discuss this.

Lin Jiufeng continued to ask, “Then, in the 50,000 years that you’ve protected the Well of Heaven Ascension, in the 50,000 years that you’ve been here, only the King of the Netherworld from 20,000 years walked out?”

As soon as these words came out, everyone fell silent.

These skeletons all wanted to know if anyone else had gone out other than the King of the Netherworld.

Including Elder Universe. He was very curious.

“There shouldn’t be anyone else. 20,000 years ago, the King of the Netherworld suppressed it and was able to leave. After she left, I fought with it for a thousand years. In the end, I used the teleportation array formation beside the Well of Heaven Ascension and directly escaped. During this period, no other skeletons came,” Elder Universe said.

The crocodile ancestor looked at Elder Universe and snorted coldly. The events from 20,000 years ago seemed to be vivid in its mind. It, who was suppressed by the King of the Netherworld, had been humiliated by Elder Universe quite a lot. Relying on the things that the King of the Netherworld left behind and relying on the teleportation array formation, Elder Universe treated the crocodile ancestor as a test subject and used him to improve his cultivation base.

As he consumed the cultivation resources left behind by the King of the Netherworld, he treated the crocodile ancestor as a sparring partner and used it to motivate himself.

Just like that, he became a crystal skeleton.

And at the moment he became a crystal skeleton, the protective means left behind by the King of the Netherworld disappeared. The enraged crocodile ancestor instantly erupted and was about to bite over.

Elder Universe knew that if they really fought, he would definitely not be a match for the crocodile ancestor, so he slipped away very straightforwardly.

Only the crocodile ancestor was left roaring angrily beside the Well of Heaven Ascension.

Now, when these two enemies met, the past hatred instantly returned. Hence, the crocodile ancestor immediately attacked Elder Universe.

The four crystal skeletons of the Immortal Court thought that the crocodile ancestor was venting its anger on Elder Universe because of the King of the Netherworld.

Unbeknownst to them, it was because of Elder Universe himself. Because of his foul mouth, he had completely offended the crocodile ancestor.

Until now, the crocodile ancestor still couldn’t wait to cut Elder Universe into pieces.

“You’ve only been with me for a thousand years, what do you know!” The crocodile ancestor said to Elder Universe disdainfully.

“Big crocodile, don’t tell me that in the past 50,000 years, there have been other skeletons that have passed the Well of Heaven Ascension?” Elder Universe asked curiously.

“Why should I tell you?” The crocodile ancestor said bluntly to Elder Universe.

“You big crocodile, you are being too serious. It has been 20,000 years since our grudges. Although your tail has been cut off by me now, you only need to spend a period of time and you will still recover. And look at my miserable appearance now. We are in the same boat.” Elder Universe advised earnestly.

“Who’s in the same boat as you? If it weren’t for Immortal King Lin, biting you to death would just be a light punishment for you.” The crocodile ancestor was still filled with hatred and anger towards Elder Universe.

It was really because those one thousand years were a huge humiliation to it.

“Alright, you are infuriated now, I won’t provoke you.” Elder Universe waved his hand helplessly. He had no solution regarding the crocodile ancestor.

“He’s already so old, yet he’s still so childish. He’s really living like a dog at this age.” Elder Universe muttered softly.

Roar!

When the crocodile ancestor heard this, it was directly enraged. It roared and shook the surroundings, scaring Elder Universe into trembling. He directly hid behind Lin Jiufeng.

“Big Crocodile, let me tell you. I’m on the same side as Immortal King Lin. Don’t do anything foolish,” Elder Universe shouted in panic.

“If it weren’t for Immortal King Lin, you would have long been bitten to death by me 800 times.” The crocodile ancestor roared.

This conversation let everyone know that there was actually such a past between Elder Universe and the crocodile ancestor.

This was another unknown story. If they didn’t tell it themselves, even Lin Jiufeng wouldn’t know about this.

“Enough!” Lin Jiufeng frowned and shouted coldly, stopping the two crystal skeletons from bickering.

He also quite admired Elder Universe. How could his mouth be so foul?

His words and actions made one speechless.

When he first encountered Elder Universe, he was still a crystal skull, so he did many things that made Lin Jiufeng speechless.

And this was only after interacting with Elder Universe for such a short period of time, Lin Jiufeng had already had enough of him.

Thinking of how the crocodile ancestor had interacted with Elder Universe for a thousand years, this torture couldn’t help but make Lin Jiufeng admire him.

One look and one could tell that the crocodile ancestor was an honest child. It guarded the Well of Heaven Ascension obediently. When it encountered Elder Universe again after being bullied for a thousand years by him, the crocodile ancestor’s anger directly soared.

If Lin Jiufeng was the crocodile ancestor, he would have long bitten Elder Universe to death.

Lin Jiufeng’s cold shout really stopped the situation.

He ignored Elder Universe. He looked at the crocodile ancestor and asked, “In the past 50,000 years, how many people have passed through the Well of Heaven Ascension and entered the mortal realm?”

When the crocodile ancestor heard Immortal King Lin’s question, it also suppressed its anger. Then, under the anticipation of all the skeletons, it said, “Three people!”

“Three?” Lin Jiufeng looked at the crocodile ancestor in surprise.

“Yes!” The crocodile ancestor nodded.

“Wait, that’s not right. You said three people, not skeletons!” Elder Universe immediately discovered something strange.

Lin Jiufeng’s mind also shook.

The other skeletons were the same.

Everyone looked at the crocodile ancestor together.

“That’s right. I said three people,” the crocodile ancestor admitted.

“Who are they?” Lin Jiufeng asked curiously.

“King of the Netherworld! Emperor Yuan! Emperor Ming!” The crocodile ancestor replied.

Lin Jiufeng’s body trembled violently. He looked at the crocodile ancestor in disbelief, his eyes filled with shock.

What did he hear?

King of the Netherworld!

Emperor Yuan!

Emperor Ming!

Since when could these three people be placed together?

Lin Jiufeng didn’t expect this at all.

Moreover, Emperor Yuan and Emperor Ming even had the ability to suppress the crocodile ancestor and leave the Death Realm through the Well of Heaven Ascension?
