Chapter 1720 The Three Heroes of Tianwu!
"Then why not use this guy?"
Chen Xuan glanced at the deceased Dragon Gate Sect Master.
The disheveled Taoist rummaged through the Dragon Gate Sect Master's body and found something, which was a letter.
"This is a letter between the Dragon Gate Sect Master and the Soul Family Ancestor. They are already preparing to join forces. It seems that Changcang Yonghua knows that the Dragon Gate Sect Master has betrayed him, so he sent you!" the disheveled Taoist said.
"Changcang Yonghua of the Land of the Rising Sun, the Soul Family Ancestor, the Xuanmen Ancestor, and the Ten Hall Yama Kings of the Underworld, things seem to be becoming clearer..."
Chen Xuan narrowed his eyes, "Let's continue!"
The group set off.
"Chen Xuan, I also found something good."
The disheveled Taoist sidled over.
"What good thing?"
The disheveled Taoist stuffed it into Chen Xuan's embrace. Chen Xuan thought that if the disheveled Taoist had something good, why wouldn't he keep it himself, but give it to him?
However, when he took it out, he was completely stunned!
It was the missing ancient jade pieces.
"You..."
"I found it on the Dragon Gate Sect Master. What to do next is up to you."
The ancient jade pieces were all gathered!
However, this was also a hot potato, and he didn't even know how many pairs of eyes were staring at them!
Chen Xuan gritted his teeth and said, "Of course I have to go. If I don't go, how can I find a way to break the Heavenly Dao curse?!"
Their party continued to move forward. Deep in Mount Wuwang, they encountered people from the Dragon Gate, killed them, and obtained a new clue. If they walked a little further, they could enter the cave where the item of longevity was hidden.
Along the long valley, at the end of the valley, Chen Xuan indeed saw a mountain gate. The mountain gate was tightly closed, and there was an indentation on the mountain gate, which was the place to put the ancient jade.
"This..."
Chen Xuan suddenly trembled all over.
The World Tree in his Dantian vibrated, seemingly even more intensely than before.
"World Tree, what's wrong?" Chen Xuan asked.
The World Tree said, "I... I feel very familiar here, it feels like my home..."
Chen Xuan frowned, unable to figure it out for a moment.
"Chen Xuan, hurry up and open the mountain gate, let's go in quickly!" the disheveled Taoist urged.
"Should I really open it?"
Chen Xuan looked at the disheveled Taoist and asked in a deep voice.
The disheveled Taoist scratched his head, "You should decide for yourself."
The others also remained silent, waiting for Chen Xuan to make a decision.
The surroundings seemed calm, but in fact, no one knew how many people were watching this place, especially the Soul Family Ancestor, the Xuanmen Ancestor, Changcang Yonghua, and the Ten Hall Yama Kings...
If any of these individuals appeared, he might not be able to defeat them.
However, at this moment, Chen Xuan overlooked one force, which was the Chen Family Ancestor and his father Chen Jianhua...
Chen Xuan fell into hesitation.
He really wanted to, after all, it might be possible to resolve the Heavenly Dao curse and help the Chen family resolve all of this, but he didn't want to, because too many important figures were paying attention to this matter.
At this moment, Chen Xuan had a feeling that he was a tool for everyone, and once he opened this mountain gate, or found the so-called item of longevity, he would become a discarded pawn.
Just as Chen Xuan was struggling, a voice exploded in Chen Xuan's mind, "Kid, hurry up and open the mountain gate, find the item of longevity, otherwise, I'll strangle Su Qian right now!!"
"Soul Family Ancestor?"
Hearing this voice, Chen Xuan looked around, but he couldn't find the Soul Family Ancestor.
"Kid, don't look for me, I'm not nearby, but I'm not far from you. It only takes a moment for me to reach your side!" the Soul Family Ancestor said.
As expected!
The Soul Family Ancestor was watching this place.
"What do you want me to do?"
"Open the stone gate obediently and help me get the item of longevity!"
"Why don't you come and get it yourself?"
"Stop talking nonsense, if you talk anymore nonsense, I'll beat your father-in-law to death!"
"So, some things can only be done by me? I think you are the one who should be obedient, right?"
The Soul Family Ancestor was furious.
He wanted to kill Chen Xuan, but he couldn't, and was extremely frustrated!
The Soul Family Ancestor said, "I'm telling you, your woman is also being watched by my people. If you don't behave, they'll be finished too!"
Chen Xuan said, "Don't worry, I will help you get that item of longevity."
"That's more like it!"
Chen Xuan felt the Soul Family Ancestor's consciousness retreat from his mind.
Immediately, another familiar consciousness entered Chen Xuan's mind.
"Xuan'er..."
The familiar consciousness made Chen Xuan pause, "Is that you, Father?"
"It's me!"
"Father, how are you? I heard you fought with the Ten Hall Yama Kings, are you injured?"
"How could the mere Ten Hall Yama Kings defeat me and our Chen Family Ancestor?"
The voice carried unparalleled arrogance.
"That's great, where are you?"
"It's inconvenient for us to show ourselves. Now the Ten Hall Yama Kings, the Soul Family Ancestor, the Xuanmen Ancestor, and Changcang Yonghua are all watching. If we appear, we will become the target of public criticism."
Chen Jianhua said, "You just go and open the mountain gate. At the critical moment, we will naturally appear!"
"I know what to do!"
Chen Xuan nodded and walked forward.
Chen Xuan placed all the ancient jade pieces together in the indentation of the mountain gate. The mountain gate rumbled and opened with a bang.
Then, Chen Xuan and the others entered. First was a long corridor, on both sides of which were murals. On the murals, Chen Xuan found familiar strange runes, which were exactly the same as the runes on Su Qian and others!!
He quickly looked at the murals, trying to find a way to break the runes from them.
Soon, he understood the mural. The mural told an ancient story. Once, in ancient times, there were three sworn brothers who practiced under the same master.
One loved martial arts and learned the most powerful martial arts in the world. He descended the mountain and defeated all his opponents. However, he was lonely because he had no opponents, so he began to teach people martial arts, hoping to cultivate a martial arts master who could contend with him.
The other liked feng shui and metaphysics, so he learned the most powerful feng shui and metaphysics in the world, and founded the Xuanmen. After years of development, Xuanmen flourished!
The last person liked the art of reincarnation and rebirth, so he founded the Yama Underworld, giving the world life and death reincarnation.
"This is..."
Chen Xuan frowned.
The disheveled Taoist shook his head, not seeing anything.
The Eastern Sea Divine Nun said, "This tells the story of the Three Heroes of Tianwu."
"The so-called Three Heroes of Tianwu are the God of War who created martial arts, the Ancestor of Xuanmen who created the Xuanmen, and the Ancestor of Yin-Yang Reincarnation who created the Yama Underworld. The three were originally good brothers, but because they fought over something, they later fell out and became enemies."
Chen Xuan saw the clue. The reincarnated bodies of these three should be the Soul Family Ancestor, the Xuanmen Ancestor, and the Chen Family Ancestor, respectively.
He didn't expect these three to have such terrifying backgrounds!
He continued to look at the murals and found that the three people had fallen out while fighting over something. That something was hidden at the end of the corridor, and that something resembled a small tree, similar to the World Tree.
And on the box that wrapped the World Tree, a seal was engraved, and that seal was precisely the rune that unlocked the Heavenly Dao curse!
