Chapter 851: Help!

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“In the past, we were caught in between chaos, blinded with wishful thinking, hoping that a massive transformation would bring about a new wave of outstanding individuals that surpassed their peers — has there ever been a lack of heroes in the generations to come? Surely there will be some with hearts of gold, who would truly abide by their morals and principles. Perhaps, we would be able to find our escape after a few years… but in the end, all of us were horribly wrong!”

“Not a single man that was fated to come here could resist the temptation of being a real god. All of them chose to disassemble our corpses so they could use it for themselves…”

“We endured and waited bitterly, waiting for the arrival of this fated individual. However, this period of waiting took a hundred thousand years…”

The elder hovering in the air looked at Yun Yang with a look filled with hope. “Little brother, you’ve now listened to the entire tale of our past. An old fellow like me here could tell that you are a true gentleman, a true hero. I am uncertain, but perhaps you might be willing to lend a hand to us poor, desecrated souls?”

The moment the voice of the elder faded away, the sky was filled with numerous apparitions. Although they were blurry, one could tell that every single one of them had their sights focused on Yun Yang with a sense of urgency.

Clearly, they were hoping that he would agree to it.

Yun Yang remained expressionless, but his heart was quivering within!

I’d never imagined God’s Bones would involve such a variety of affairs.

This was quite the pickle, wasn’t it?

This unrivaled legend of Tianxuan — God’s Bones that can make one become a deity — had originated from the heavens, from the real gods themselves… Yet, the most frightening part was how these gods — immortals who outmatched every living being of the land — were still a minuscule existence who could still be toppled by even stronger hegemons. To be a god is to be the master of the universe; that ignorant theory he initially believed in was way off the mark!

“So, it was all of you who were protecting and restoring the peace of this world with your essence, Qi and spirit even after perishing so long ago…” Yun Yang sighed gently. He looked up to the sky and murmured, “Heroes should never be subjected to such grievances, even if there were many reasons behind it. Your contributions were far too much after all this time.”

He was silent for a moment before speaking. “How can I help all of you? Please, feel free to tell me!”

Upon hearing those words, that elder could barely string his words together, overwhelmed by a surge of emotions. “You… you accept?”

The strong quivering of emotions nearly caused his spirit-form to disintegrate — it took quite some time for him to settle down.

“I accept.” Yun Yang smiled as he nodded earnestly.

The apparition of the elder burst into violent convulsions. He only began to reply after a moment. “Y-You… Aren’t you afraid that our words are nothing but lies? Aren’t you afraid that we might have other motives… or we might just be exploiting you to escape from our troubles?”

“A hero’s dignity should not be trampled upon; I am willing to do this due to that simple belief. If you’ve used me, I’ll just have to defeat all of you when I’m done restoring you to your original selves!” Yun Yang said calmly, with his eyes half-closed.

The elder gazed at him, the expression on his face shifting into a look of bemusement. “What a great spirit!”

His heart was palpitating within him as he murmured, “Is this… heart?”

At this juncture, the form of the elder had contracted to the point where the words in between his sentence were completely inaudible — Yun Yang never had the chance to make them out.

However, the apparitions seemed to be struck with a sudden moment of realization, their faces clearly reflecting expressions of epiphany. As they lapsed into deep thought, a sense of guilt gradually sparked within them.

“Young man, there are a few passages like this in the Bound of Universe that has led to the grave.”

“If someone had taken away the God’s Bones out of greed, these passages… will only seal off completely when somebody returns them.”

“Therefore, as long as you go after all of them, young fellow, you would naturally know the way to enter. Similarly, I can only rebuild the heavens only when God’s Bones are gathered completely, and return to be an immortal.”

“We’re counting on you on these matters, young fellow.”

Signs of guilt were reflected across the faces of every apparition. “The thing that caused me the most guilt is… the fact that a bunch of desecrated souls like us is unable to repay you with anything. Even if you really do return God’s Bones, we still have nothing on us worthy as a form of reward… this is something we will not lie to you about.”

Yun Yang burst into laughter. “I had always intended to return God’s Bones without any reward in mind — it was nothing but to preserve the dignity of true heroes. I will try my best to assist with anything that happens later on. A hundred years… I’ll be sure to turn up here before your presences along with all of your remains. This is just one of the things I can do for the welfare of Tianxuan; such efforts will not go to waste.

“You have our thanks!”

The apparitions hovering upon the horizon expressed their gratitude by taking a deep bow collectively.

They promptly disappeared at the very next moment. Not a single one stayed behind as if they had never existed.

In no time, the sight of that majestic architecture transformed into a slate of nothingness.

Only a frail voice remained, echoing faintly in the air, “It is not fit for a common man to dwell in this place too long — please run along now, young fellow, before you are harmed by the yin energy here…”

Yun Yang felt a little muddled as he emerged from the realm of God’s Grave.

No matter how slick he was, he would not have imagined that the source of God’s Bones — this entity lusted after by Mr. Nian and the rest of Four Seasons Tower — would bear so many secrets!

This was simply a shocking, unimaginable secret that no man could ever have thought of!

“The Four Seasons Tower was obsessed with collecting all of God’s Bones, hoping to be a true God and attain the status of being an immortal… but little did they know that it is impossible to be a true immortal by depending on God’s Bones. Even if they really do achieve it, they’ve done nothing but to stoop to reprehensible levels. It’s an even more preposterous idea to attain the status of an immortal — what’s the point of being an immortal when they would no longer exist? If that is all taken into account, God’s Bones is not an opportunity to ascend to the heavens at all — it is nothing but a trap of eternal damnation, a trap beyond the point of redemption!”

“Needless to say, it’s impossible for them to gather all of God’s Bones. Even if they managed to gather all of it and ascend into the levels of a true immortal, evidently, they will only come to face a reality without the slightest trace of hope. There’s no way they can go further in their path of practice — there is only despair!”

“The moment of success is also the moment of failure. This… this is the most terrible sense of hopelessness!”

Yun Yang subconsciously remembered how persistent the Four Seasons Tower was. They were always pushing themselves, working towards this goal without rest. They had invested their efforts in every aspect — all too much of it — to arrive at a truth like this. It was truly tragic.

Yun Yang couldn’t help but let out a mental sigh.

If you cast aside their conscience and morals, who amongst Mr. Nian and his entourage were not great men? These were the ones that were hard to come by in this mortal realm.

It was only because they had fallen into this irresistible maze — they could not escape once they were involved.

In the end, it was nothing but the greed of mankind at fault.

However… since the beginning of time, nobody could have withstood the temptation of attaining the highest form of achievement in the world — they were thoroughly obsessed to the point of no return!

“When Mr. Nian had finally told me the whereabouts of God’s Grave the other day, it was expectedly ill-intentioned. That was the final trap he set me up for — but the test was to see if I would succumb to the greed within myself.

“Mr. Nian is truly an ambitious man. He’s already dead, yet he still managed to leave behind such a deadly trap!”

Yun Yang recalled something; Mr. Nian’s body did not have a single piece of God’s Bones on him before the final battle!

He was the ruler of the Four Seasons Tower, yet not a single piece of the bones that could render one to be an immortal was found on him; what could this possibly mean?

Recalling the events of this day, he couldn’t help but shudder in fear.
