Chapter 324 The Broken World
The Carnage Firmament was treated as a holy land for those who cultivate the rules of darkness, especially the treasures that lay within this land. However, what everyone did not know was that Fortuniel had reminded Yang Lujia of one thing that was most important of all.
This Carnage Firmament was something related to his past life, including the fact that this place is of great significance to his eldest disciple, Lin Diyu.
Seeing Lin Diyu who had grown into a more powerful being that he previously was, Yang Lujia was naturally feeling proud. Regardless, his strength was not yet enough for him to face any of the opponents he might face in the future. For example, those extraordinary existences that Yang Lujia had once encountered and met—like his own father whose existence was still a baffling concept to him.
"Tell me about this Carnage Firmamen!" Yang Lujia looked at Xie Dou. The latter hurriedly gave him answers that he needed.
Although Fortuniel had upgraded and was able to have his own consciousness, Yang Lujia was certain that there were still details he had missed, such as the history of this Carnage Firmament.
"I actually don't know much of it, except that it has treasures that can hasten one's cultivation if one has cultivated the rule of darkness, improving the comprehension towards this rule. Moreover, the most powerful treasure found inside this place was the Carnage Lotus. It has the power to restrict the powers of the rules that oppose it, just as it has the capability to assist someone who has cultivated its attributes."
Seeing that Yang Lujia seemed found his information unsatisfactory, Xie Dou hurriedly withdrew from trying to hold back all the information he had in his arsenal.
"Actually, while the Fiend Emperor Palace is the newest palace that has been built in the history of the Da Shikong, it still doesn't change the fact that it has also existed for several years."
"Elaborate your point more clearly," Yang Lujia said, to which the others also leaned their ears as they were curious about the secret of the Fiend Emperor Palace.
After all, the Carnage Firmament was like the palace's holy land. Having its important information, although it may not be used in the future, even for the sake of surfeiting themselves of their curiosity towards the matter, they would not let go of this information. Yang Fei, especially wanted to know more of this, as he also sells important details to his clients.
On the other hand, Long Guang and Lin Diyu was just silently looking at the scene. It was the same for Sheng Ao, who did not even pay attention to any of the earlier details as he had no interest of cultivation the rules of darkness. It was only out of respect for his eldest senior brother that he came along with them.
"Eldest senior brother, how are you doing all this time? I knew that you are here at the Fiend Emperor Palace, because other than this palace, there was nowhere else you could be. After all, I know that you cultivate the rules of darkness. I don't even dare say that I can defeat you know. At most, I would be able to draw you in a fight!" Long Guang suddenly said, recalling that he and his senior brother have reunited with each other.
However, his excitement did not overshadow the curiosity of the others. Only Lin Diyu and Sheng Ao paid attention to him, smiling at their childlike brother, who was only a ten-year-old kid.
"I also expected that you'd be at the Dragon Emperor Palace, because you're a dragon yourself! I just didn't expect that you'd be able to catch up to me this fast!" Lin Diyu was somewhat dejected. However, the dejection he felt was towards himself, as though he looked like a ridiculous cultivator who had thought that he had gone ahead of his little senior brothers.
Even Sheng Ao, his fourth junior brother, would soon catch up to them at any time.
"It's really nice to finally meet you, eldest senior brother! Master told me many things about you!"
Lin Diyu disregarded all of his feelings and just overcame his heavy-heartedness with the happiness he felt to finally be reunited with his master and he even got a new little junior brother! Moreover, there was still that fifth junior sister of his who was also a beast, that was not any inferior to his second junior brother!
While they were chatting by the side, still at their same positions, the conversation between the adults continued—technically, in terms of physical appearance, Yang Lujia was not any different from being a child.
"According to the deceased ancestors of the Fiend Emperor Palace, the Carnage Firmament suddenly appeared in this land. This was also the reason why this specific land in Da Shikong became as powerful as the other palaces' territories, if not even more powerful than some, gaining a strong foothold in the realm. This was information that the ancestors that have passed from one generation to another!"
Yang Lujia acknowledged this fact. In reality, he had already expected much. Just from the denseness of the rules of darkness of the Carnage Lotus he had once witnessed can already push someone to the peak of this realm.
"It seems like this Carnage Firmament was more important than I thought it wouldn't be," Yang Lujia muttered to himself. "Did you also know that this Carnage Firmament is a broken world?"
"That..." Xie Dou was shocked as he looked at Yang Lujia. "How did you know that? Only the ancestors of the Fiend Emperor Palace would know that fact. The first ancestor, the founder, who built the now-Fiend Emperor Palace, was the one who was given this information firsthand. Other than the ancestors, no one shall know anything about this as this is something very crucial."
"Oh?" Yang Lujia was glad he opened this topic, using the information that Fortuniel provided him. "So you do know about this."
"Uh..." Xie Dou, due to his surprised heart, said those words in reflex—involuntarily. Afterward, he sighed as he knew that this Carnage Firmament would not anymore be monopolized by the palace like they had done before.
It was just bitter that it would end in his generation. After all, the Carnage Firmament was like the lifeblood of the Fiend Emperor Palace that gave it infinite amount of resources.
"That is indeed correct. It is a broken world. When the founder first found this place, he was able to receive some of the memories from this broken world. It was said to be from a world that wasn't inferior to the world we are standing at the moment!"
"Wasn't inferior than the Five Realms?" Yang Lujia was surprised.
'Is this broken world's original world the same level as the Five Realms and the Nether Universe I had gone to?' Yang Lujia contemplated as he thought about these things. 'If that is the case, this world had been destroyed before and the Carnage Firmament was just a fragment of this large world!'
Having taken his time to analyze it, Yang Lujia was becoming more and more astounded by these findings. Then, could it be that the worlds he created for his disciples had also connections with some of the worlds out there that he had never known about? He was hoping that he would know of their information sooner.
While trapped in his thoughts, Xie Dou added, "Moreover, this broken world that's a part of a complete world was said to be only one of the many fragments out there. Moreover, it was said that this Carnage Firmament was also part of the Demon Garden! This Demon Garden is the place where the strongest demon of that world had always grown strange things, including the Carnage Lotus!"
"Demon Garden!"
Everyone turned to look at the direction where the voice came from. It came from the young man whose aura was not less than any of the present strong forces. In fact, it was much stronger, with the exception of Yang Lujia.
Yang Lujia's pupils soon constricted as he looked at Lin Diyu. 'Could it be that Lin Diyu was a reincarnation of someone from the past? Does he know about this Demon Garden?'
"Lin Diyu, do you know about this Demon Garden?"
Lin Diyu tried to recall everything but his memories suddenly became so hazy that he had not seen anything but blurry flashbacks—that he knew nothing about at the moment. He could only support his head that was aching as he disappointedly answered, "I'm sorry, Master! I think I know of the Demon Garden—but I don't know anything other than its name!"
'Did he awaken some of his past memories?'
Yang Lujia could not help but think about the standards that Fortuniel had when choosing his disciples. Could it be that Lin Diyu's plot was that of a reincarnated soul? If so, it piqued Yang Lujia's interest.
