Chapter 978: The Truth of the World
After the withered grass was taken away by the Chu Emperor, Xu Bai didn’t move. He wasn’t in any danger now, but he could sense that the Chu Emperor had something to do, so he maintained his silence.
The Chu Emperor’s eyes were still as empty as ever. He looked like a piece of wood, devoid of any emotion. He stared at the withered grass in his hand and carefully examined it. His eyes were also empty and dull.
Just like that, after a few dozen seconds, the Chu Emperor raised his left hand and slightly waved it at the withered grass.
Soon, two things floated out of the withered grass.
Xu Bai’s eyes widened when he saw the two items, but he still didn’t move. In fact, he was looking forward to it.
These were two books that came from the Bizarre Human City and the Bizarre Demon City respectively. He had once entered those two special spaces as a cheat and obtained them by chance.
All of them were words that he could understand, but he guessed that they came from different worlds.
Now that the Chu Emperor had taken out these two books, Xu Bai felt that there was definitely something going on. He quietly observed the situation and didn’t immediately use the Soul Annihilation method to attack him.
As expected, Xu Bai’s feeling was right. The Chu Emperor raised his hand again, and the withered grass was returned to him.
Xu Bai took the withered grass and put it into his arms, then looked at the Chu Emperor.
The Chu Emperor no longer had his divine soul and was acting on instinct.
The so-called instinct was actually very complicated. Now that these two books had attracted the attention of the Chu Emperor, it was definitely because he had experienced something related to these two books that triggered the Chu Emperor’s instinct.
The Chu Emperor gently waved his hand, and the two thick books floating in the air landed in his left and right hands.
Immediately after, a powerful aura gushed forth from the Chu Emperor’s body.
“Is this what it means to become a Saint?”
With Xu Bai’s current strength, even if this aura was not targeted at him, he still felt very strenuous. Fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
He could feel that this difference was very obvious, so obvious that he could see it keenly.
Fortunately, this aura was targeted at the two books.
Under the pressure of the Chu Emperor’s powerful aura, the two books suddenly began to move.
The originally neatly bound book instantly became scattered pages.
These pages floated in the sky, appearing very messy.
The Chu Emperor, who was in the middle of the pages, suddenly stretched out his hand and waved it gently at the pages that filled the sky.
As he waved his hand, the pages in the sky kept spinning, turning from disorderly to orderly.
The words on the pages were slowly changing. In the blink of an eye, the words of the two books had turned into words that Xu Bai could understand.
Following that, as the words changed completely, the pages gradually closed and returned to their original state, turning into two thick books.
However, Xu Bai knew that the words in these two books had completely changed.
Two thick books fell from the sky. The Chu Emperor stretched out his hand and caught them.
The scene became quiet, so quiet that it made one’s hair stand on end.
The Chu Emperor’s hollow eyes stared straight at Xu Bai, without the slightest emotion. He just handed the book in his hand over.
Xu Bai looked at the book floating in the air and hesitated for a while before walking toward the Chu Emperor.
As he walked, he focused his attention on the Chu Emperor, and at the same time, he was prepared to attack his own soul at any time.
These two books were very important, not because of the progress bar, but because they were related to some important secrets.
Since he could get it, he would never give it up. If he could learn a lot from the book, it would be of great benefit to him.
Looking at the Chu Emperor’s current appearance, it was very obvious that he wanted to give the book to him.
Xu Bai felt that he could take this risk, because the Chu Emperor’s instincts didn’t show any hostility towards him.
As a human, the Chu Emperor’s instinct was to kill the strangeness in this place. He was also a human, so perhaps he wouldn’t be in too much danger.
Of course, this was only Xu Bai’s guess. Therefore, Xu Bai was ready to attack his own soul at any time in case something unexpected happened.
The distance between him and the Chu Emperor was getting closer and closer. Xu Bai looked at the two books in front of him and slowly stretched out his hand.
When his hands came into contact with the book, the Chu Emperor’s expression did not change. Only then did Xu Bai heave a sigh of relief.
After taking the two books, Xu Bai took out the withered grass and put the two books inside.
After doing all of this, he raised his head and sized up the Chu Emperor, a complicated expression flashing in his eyes.
“You must have come into contact with some secret here, right?”
To be able to restore these two books, and even restore them to the language of Great Chu, this proved that the Chu Emperor had come into contact with something.
However, he couldn’t answer Xu Bai’s question based on his instincts. Everything he did was based on his instincts.
Xu Bai had asked this question subconsciously. Of course, he couldn’t get an answer.
The Chu Emperor tilted his head and looked at Xu Bai with an empty gaze. It was as if he was looking at an ordinary object and did not move at all.
After looking at Xu Bai for a while, the Chu Emperor shifted his gaze away from Xu Bai and looked behind him. Then, he slowly raised his foot.
The aura on his body was gradually becoming stronger, and the direction he was rushing towards was the direction of the battlefield.
Only then did Xu Bai remember that there were still 17 Saint Realm monsters left on the battlefield.
“Are you going to kill them?”
The Chu Emperor didn’t reply to him. In the blink of an eye, he had already disappeared from his original spot, never to be seen again.
Xu Bai looked at the place where the Chu Emperor had disappeared and took a deep breath. After calming himself down, he hurried in the direction of the image in the city.
