827 As Long As There Are No More Grotto-Heaven Realm Experts in the World (2)
Boom!
As if in response to Ji Lutian’s words, a loud bang suddenly sounded in the sky.
Then Zhou Shu saw a massive crack appear in the sky.
The sky cracked?
The crack in the sky was countless times more shocking than seeing the barrier between the two worlds torn open.
“This is?” Zhou Shu didn’t hide his confusion and turned to look at Ji Lutian.
He had already forged the Great Qin imperial cauldron and made up for the missing imperial cauldron. The barrier between the two worlds had reappeared. He had thought that the Ten Nations Continent would be peaceful for a period of time.
Unexpectedly, only a few days had passed, but there was actually a massive crack in the sky!
Unlike Zhou Shu, Ji Lutian, Zhang Jiping, Zheng Chengan, Tang Qianluo, and the others had very calm expressions, as if they were used to it.
“The sky cracked.” Ji Lutian sighed. “It finally happened.”
He looked at Zhou Shu and said seriously, “Brother Nameless, perhaps you’ve been in seclusion for too long, so you don’t know much about this. The crack in the sky means that it has already begun to wake up.”
Ji Lutian pointed at the sky and said in a low voice, “The crack is caused by a leak of the power of Heaven. The source of the power of heavenly slaves comes from Heaven. When the crack appears, heavenly slaves will become stronger and stronger.”
Zhou Shu frowned slightly. He knew what heavenly slaves were. The Demon Kings of the Demon Realm were heavenly slaves. In fact, the demonic beasts who had lost their minds could also be called heavenly slaves. It was just that they were too weak, so they didn’t use the name of heavenly slaves.
What Ji Lutian meant was that after the crack in the sky appeared, the demonic beasts of the Demon Realm would continue to become stronger.
They were already strong. Even ordinary demonic beasts were stronger than human martial artists of the same level. If they became stronger, wouldn’t the situation of the human race be even more perilous?
“Under the crack, even with the Ten Imperial Cauldrons, the barrier between the two worlds won’t be able to hold on for long.”
Zhou Shu finally understood what Ji Lutian meant by those two time periods. In three days to a month, the barrier between the two worlds would give way!
It turned out that he had spent so much effort to forge Great Qin’s imperial cauldron but could only buy so little time for the human race?
“Is there any way to stop it?” Zhou Shu said.
Zhang Jiping, Zheng Chengan, Tang Qianluo, and the others shook their heads.
This wasn’t the first time the sky had cracked. In the past, every time it happened, the human race had suffered heavy casualties. If not for grotto-heavens being the last safe havens of the human race, the human race would probably have been destroyed long ago.
But grotto-heavens were not omnipotent. In the past, grotto-heavens had been breached.
As everyone shook their heads, Zhou Shu noticed that Ji Lutian’s expression was a little strange.
His heart skipped a beat.
Ji Lutian was very mysterious. Even now, Zhou Shu still didn’t know his background.
Even Wang Xuanyi and his wife, who had extremely powerful backgrounds, were secretive about Ji Lutian’s identity. He definitely had a huge secret.
It was true that Zhang Jiping and the others said there was no way, but it didn’t mean that Ji Lutian had no way.
“Brother Nameless, we still have to go back and continue deploying forces. We’ll get someone to send the forging materials here,” Zhang Jiping said. “Brother Nameless, if it’s convenient, I hope you can continue to forge divine weapons for the human race.”
“Don’t worry. I’ll do my best,” Zhou Shu said.
Zhang Jiping and the others took their leave one after another. In the end, Ji Lutian actually stayed on the Two Region Mountain.
Ji Lutian looked around and saw that Zhang Jiping and the others had already left. He cupped his hands at Zhou Shu. “I would like to talk to you, Brother Nameless. Do you have time?”
“Mr. Ji, if I say I don’t have time, will you leave?” Zhou Shu smiled faintly.
“No.” Ji Lutian laughed and shook his head.
“Brother Nameless, your actions remind me of a young friend.” Ji Lutian looked straight at Zhou Shu without blinking.
Zhou Shu’s acting skills had long been honed. His expression didn’t change at all as he said calmly, “Is that so?
“Mr. Ji, if you have anything to say, why don’t you just say it? I still have to forge. Time is tight, and I don’t have much time to chat.”
“Brother Nameless, you’re straightforward.” Ji Lutian didn’t see any flaws on Zhou Shu’s face. Could he really have nothing to do with Zhou Shu?
He said in a low voice, “Then, I’ll be straightforward. I want to cooperate with you to end the danger of the Demon Realm once and for all.”
Ji Lutian’s expression was extremely solemn, and he didn’t look like he was joking.
Zhou Shu frowned. “Mr. Ji, do you have a way to resolve the threat of the Demon Realm? Then, why didn’t you say it directly just now? Don’t you trust Zhang Jiping, Zheng Chengan, and the others?”
“It’s not that I don’t trust them.” Ji Lutian shook his head. “But they will definitely not agree to my method.
“Since I know that they won’t agree, why would I bring contempt upon myself?”
“Then, how can you be sure that I will agree with your method?” Zhou Shu asked.
“I’m not sure.” Ji Lutian shook his head. “That’s why I want to talk to you. From your actions, you’re a selfless person. For the safety of the human race, you don’t care about personal gains and losses at all. I admire your magnanimity.”
“Mr. Ji, you don’t have to flatter me. I know what I should do and what I can do. I won’t be swayed by your words,” Zhou Shu said calmly.
“Of course.” Ji Lutian nodded.
“Actually, my method is very simple.” A light appeared on Ji Lutian’s body, and the Demon Subduing Pagoda silently appeared above his head. An invisible aura enveloped a radius of dozens of feet.
Zhou Shu didn’t sense any hostility from Ji Lutian. He knew that he was only isolating his voice. Clearly, he didn’t want others to hear him.
Ji Lutian said in a deep voice, “Shatter the grotto-heavens and return the worlds to Heaven. This way, Heaven will naturally calm down, and the human race will obtain peace.”
Zhou Shu looked at Ji Lutian, his heart filled with shock. No wonder Ji Lutian had to speak to him without the people from the grotto-heavens. This method would eliminate all the grotto-heavens.
Shatter the grotto-heavens and return the worlds stolen by Grotto-Heaven realm experts to Heaven…
It had to be said that Ji Lutian was a little naive.
If one stole someone else’s thing and returned it, would the other party not pursue the matter?
Of course, this analogy was not very appropriate. The relationship between Grotto-Heaven realm experts and Heaven could not be purely compared to thieves and the owner.
But the logic was the same. Ji Lutian thought that Heaven would let them off if the grotto-heavens were shattered and returned. But how was this possible?
Unless—
Zhou Shu heard Ji Lutian continue. “As long as there are no more Grotto-Heaven realm experts in the world, the human race won’t pose a threat to Heaven. Since there’s no threat, there’s naturally no need for Heaven to send down heavenly slaves to attack the human race.”
Zhou Shu frowned. Is that really what Ji Lutian thinks?
As long as there are no Grotto-Heaven realm experts in the world?
Does Ji Lutian want to show weakness to Heaven and beg Heaven to let the human race off?
How is that possible?
Showing weakness will only mean being at Heaven’s mercy. It isn’t the solution at all.
Although Zhou Shu didn’t know what kind of existence Heaven was, he felt that Ji Lutian’s method was simply cutting off his arm and handing his life over to an unfathomable and unpredictable Heaven.
If there were really no Grotto-Heaven realm experts in the world, wouldn’t the survival of the human race be in the hands of Heaven?
“Mr. Ji, are you serious?” Zhou Shu looked at Ji Lutian. “Do you want to kill all the Grotto-Heaven realm experts in the world? Not to mention whether you can do it or not, even if you can, how can you be sure that Heaven will really stop after you do this?”
