Heaven Slaying Blade

The white-bearded old man nodded at everyone, then looked at Chu Mo: "If I am not mistaken, the person you're referring to…" He emphasized the word 'person' with a heavier accent: "Should be a lifeform from the high-dimensional."

"High-dimensional?" Everyone present looked perplexed.

Including Chu Mo, they all had a hard time understanding what kind of place the high-dimensional mentioned by the white-bearded old man was.

"This world is vast, and there are many existences we cannot comprehend. For example, people in a painting will never understand what kind of place a world like ours is."

Chu Xuan suddenly asked from the side, "But the world in the painting is not a real world!"

"In the eyes of many high-dimensional lifeforms, the world we are in now is actually fake too," the white-bearded old man chuckled and said.

"How… how is that possible? We are all living beings!" Chu Xuan was actually quite insightful. And having cultivated to the Supreme level, his understanding of many things in this world was incredibly clear and deep.

But at this moment, he was truly a bit confused.

The white-bearded old man continued: "Actually, in the high-dimensional world, there are also humans. They are very powerful, almost like members of the ruling class. The high-dimensional world generally doesn't pay much attention to lower-dimensional worlds. Just like how we wouldn't particularly pay attention to a painting."

Everyone nodded, then curiously looked at the white-bearded old man, all wondering about his background.

The white-bearded old man smiled slightly: "I actually come from the high-dimensional world, we are all symbolic lifeforms, summoned to this plane by the power of fate, and then awakened here. Yes, it is the Four Great Heavens."

Four Great Heavens?

"The Great Immeasurable Carefree Heaven, the Great Creation Carefree Heaven, the Great Compassion Namo Heaven, and the Primordial World Purple Gold Heaven," the white-bearded old man said: "Under the four great heavenly realms, governing the myriad worlds…"

About half an hour later, those present finally fully understood what kind of place the outside world was.

Many things, even the Supreme Wuji and Immeasurable Buddha, weren't particularly clear about before this.

After the white-bearded old man's introduction and some supplements from Xu Shiyun, everyone, including Chu Mo, finally knew more.

But this made everyone more curious about the identities of the white-bearded old man and Xu Shiyun.

Finally, after introducing the specifics of the Four Great Heavens, the white-bearded old man first said: "The high-dimensional world almost has no effect on the lower-dimensional world. So, for now, everyone doesn't need to worry about those things. Just like you wouldn't easily destroy a painting, high-dimensional beings wouldn't idle around to influence a lower-dimensional world. Do not overly worry about the high-dimensional world. We will clarify our identities and origins in a moment. As for the intelligent brain Young Master Chu mentioned, if I am not mistaken, it should also represent some high-dimensional beings in the Four Great Heavens. Based on the opponent's attack methods, it should be a rune lifeform!"

"Rune lifeform?" Everyone had already heard the white-bearded old man refer to himself as a symbolic lifeform. Unexpectedly, a rune lifeform emerged now.

"Yes, it's also a type of high-dimensional being. We are engraved symbolic lifeforms by the heavenly people of the Four Great Heavens, and this symbol was endowed with power from the high-dimensional, which is the source awakening us. But rune lifeforms are different," the white-bearded old man said.

Everyone looked at the white-bearded old man as he said: "Rune lifeforms have crawled in from the high-dimensional on their own! Some intentionally came into this world, while others accidentally crawled in. After entering this world, if they want to leave, they must accumulate a lot of energy. And this energy, like crystal cores, is the top level."

"So, Aunt Chu Hui really is such a person…" Chu Tong looked disappointed, feeling very upset.

The white-bearded old man shook his head: "Maybe not, rune lifeforms are very bizarre, they can hide in other lifeforms for many years, just like parasites, and only reveal themselves when needed, occupying all of the host."

Chu Mo nodded, taking out the small box refined from divine metal, and said softly: "She definitely didn't intend to betray me. In fact, the moment she struck, I already understood. Because it…" Chu Mo raised his hand for everyone to see the metal box in his hand: "Many years ago, it had already calculated that today's accident might happen. So at that time, it asked me to seal its source. Chu Hui is actually just one of its avatars. However, I am not sure now whether the infected one is its avatar or if even the source has been invaded."

The white-bearded old man asked: "May I check it?"

Chu Mo nodded, handing the metal box to the white-bearded old man. He said: "Its source is sealed by this divine metal..."

The white-bearded old man smiled and said: "The seal of this divine metal is indeed well done, very sophisticated. However, we don't need to open it to check if there is a problem." With that, the white-bearded old man took the metal box and gently closed his eyes.

Chu Mo watched the white-bearded old man, sensing only a very unfamiliar fluctuation from him. Then, he saw the white-bearded old man's hands produce a very strange rhythm, as if tapping on the box of divine metal at an extremely high frequency.

The white-bearded old man's expression gradually became serious, frowning slightly, as if analyzing something.

Inside the ancient hall, it was utterly quiet.

Everyone was waiting for the result of his detection.

The entire process lasted at least an hour, during which no one spoke, all waiting in anticipation.

Finally, the white-bearded old man exhaled deeply, then showed a touch of sadness on his face, looking at Chu Mo, hesitating to speak.

Everyone was nervous, watching the white-bearded old man.

Chu Mo said: "Just say whatever it is."

The white-bearded old man said: "Its source is actually a type of rune lifeform…"

Everyone froze.

The white-bearded old man continued: "Actually, mechanical life should originally count as a branch derived from rune life, but at that time I couldn't be completely sure. Now, it is certain."

"Are you saying, Aunt Chu Hui, is a bad person?" Chu Tong still couldn't accept this fact.

The white-bearded old man shook his head: "It's not about good or bad. She might be a member of rune lifeforms hidden in the ancient god world, with sealed memories, and then, under certain conditions, these sealed memories are unlocked. Such as seeing the five crystal cores within the ancient god's body. Once the memories are unlocked, they are no longer the friend you knew. However, her relationship with you should indeed be very good. So when she initiated the attack, there was a huge conflict between her pre-awakening and post-awakening memories. Otherwise, Young Master Chu, you might have suffered a more serious injury."

Upon hearing this, Chu Mo couldn't help but fall into silence, a hint of regret also showing in his eyes. Although the origins of the white-bearded old man and Xu Shiyun were mysterious, he could calculate that the likelihood of the white-bearded old man telling the truth exceeded ninety-nine percent!

Because, during Chu Hui's attack against him, that struggle, Chu Mo felt it clearly. But eventually, the awakened memories increasingly dominated, suppressing the human side of Chu Hui.

Nevertheless, Chu Hui still retained some of her human side and habits, such as calling Chu Mo brother. And when Chu Hui left for the last time, the words she left behind seemed like a threat but were actually a warning.

"So, the source within this metal box, is it also an awakened life?" Chu Tong asked, unwilling to give up.

"No, it's pre-awakened," the white-bearded old man said.

"Great!" Chu Tong's face immediately showed happiness.

Others were also elated. Over the years, the relationship between these people and the intelligent brain Chu Hui had become very close, having long considered her family. They certainly didn't want to see their family betray and leave.

"I haven't finished," the white-bearded old man doused their joy: "Although it hasn't awakened, once the seal is unlocked, it will find out everything in the shortest time, then… will awaken again!"

"Ah?" Chu Tong and others were dumbfounded. Chu Tong looked at the white-bearded old man and asked: "Isn't there any way to solve this?"

"At least, currently there isn't. Unless… Young Master Chu can fully refine all five crystal cores, completely mastering this energy, and then… successfully open a new Fifth Great Heaven realm, becoming the Great Heavenly Lord. Only then would these rune lifeforms be helpless," the white-bearded old man said.

At this moment, everyone turned to look at Chu Mo.

Chu Mo said: "Now, can you tell us about your origins?"

The white-bearded old man said: "I've already told you my origin. I come from a higher dimensional world, engraved by the people of this world, then summoned by mysterious means from the high dimension and awakened. As for Xu Shiyun, she, in the physical world of the ancient gods, is the daughter of the Palace Master of the Heavenly Palace of the three major forces you speak of."

The revelation from the white-bearded old man was like a thunder shock, leaving everyone stunned.

Chu Mo was also shocked, although he sensed that Xu Shiyun's identity and status were extraordinary, her noble temperament wasn't feigned. But he also did not expect that Xu Shiyun, this delicate and beautiful young woman with no trace of a cultivator's aura, would actually be… the daughter of the palace master of the Heavenly Palace of the three major forces…
