Chapter 701 Tongtian Lu
When the old man stopped, he had already retreated dozens of steps.
Moreover, his figure flickered, and it seemed that he would be unstable and dissipate at any time.
”Your Excellency,” the old man looked at Xu Zimo and said.
”Do you want to come again?” Xu Zimo asked.
”No, even if I come in person, it’s just like this. You won,” the old man said with a smile.
”According to the rules, if you challenge my residual soul successfully, the inheritance I left behind will naturally belong to you.”
Hearing the old man’s words, Xu Zimo was slightly stunned.
You know, he didn’t think about the inheritance at all before, and thought it was just a simple exchange.
Looking at the smile on the old man’s face, Xu Zimo suddenly felt that the other party seemed to have had this plan for a long time.
”We are both God Kings, and your inheritance seems to be a little buried to me,” Xu Zimo said.
”And I don’t necessarily need it.”
”Your Excellency might as well take a look at the inheritance first,” the old man said with a smile.
As soon as he finished speaking, the beam of light that originally covered him suddenly fluctuated.
In this beam of light, the floor in the hall was opened, and a golden key slowly floated up.
No one knew what the key was made of. When it appeared, the aura around it gathered towards it crazily.
There was also a shadow of a human face on the key. The shadow seemed to be awakening with the influx of aura.
Low roars came from it.
The old man waved his hand and sealed the key.
The shadow in the key kept attacking the seal, looking ferocious and fierce.
”What is this?” Xu Zimo asked with a frown.
”This is the key to heaven,” the old man smiled. ”
My residual soul has been sealing it. Now I give it to you, and I should dissipate.”
”I don’t understand,” Xu Zimo shook his head and said.
”In this Eternal City, in addition to the ladder to the gods, there is also a site of immortals. You should know this,” the old man smiled.
”This Xiandao ruins is where we stayed after the great war with the existence of the world outside the Xiandao Bridge.
There are many treasures left behind. At first, this place was managed by our Wan Gu Shen Zong, and the disciples had already plundered some of the treasures on the periphery.
They didn’t dare to go to the more dangerous battle site inside.
Later, in order to attract those remnants, I opened this Xiandao ruins to allow anyone to enter.
Unfortunately, those remnants were very cautious and didn’t fall into my trap at all.”
”What does this have to do with me?” Xu Zimo frowned and asked, “And this so-called key to heaven.”
”Don’t be impatient, listen to me slowly,” the old man smiled.
”Do you know why those remnants have stayed in the Wan Gu Continent? I even suspect that they have been hiding in Wan Gu City.
That’s because their leader lost a very important thing in the Xiandao ruins after he died in the battle.”
”What is it?” Xu Zimo frowned and asked.
”The Tongtian Record,” the old man replied, “I don’t know where the Tongtian Record is, but I’m sure it has always been placed in the core area of the Xiandao Ruins.
If you want to enter the core area, only the Tongtian Key can unlock the seal of the Tongtian Record.
Otherwise, even if the God King descends, it will be useless.”
”What is the Tongtian Record?” Xu Zimo asked doubtfully.
”I don’t know either. Anyway, it is a very ancient item, and I also searched hard for it in the past.
” Maybe it’s because they are not destined to get it, and they didn’t get it in the end,” the old man shook his head and said.
”Those remnants have been eyeing this key to heaven. They have changed their identities many times over the years and climbed this ladder, but unfortunately they have not succeeded. ”
”If you give me this key now, won’t I become the target of public criticism?” Xu Zimo frowned and said.
He knew that the remnants the old man was talking about were the people who survived the war that year.
”I’ve given you the key to heaven. Whether you want it or not, those remnants will not let you go,” the old man said.
”You want to use my hand to eliminate them,” Xu Zimo’s expression gradually turned cold.
”This is the last thing I can do for this continent,” the old man turned his head and said ashamedly.
”I’m sorry, sir, I’ve been waiting for tens of thousands of years, and now it’s becoming increasingly difficult for this remnant soul to suppress the key to heaven.
If you don’t come, I’m afraid that after another thousand years, the key will break the seal and come out by itself, and I won’t be able to do anything about it. ”
”Aren’t you afraid that I will destroy your Eternal Divine Sect? “Xu Zimo said.
”Alas,” the old man sighed, and continued: “Everything must be traded off. Although I don’t know what happened to me, I know everything about my life.
You will also step into the Immortal Bridge in the future. When you go to another world, you can ask for anything. I will treat it as compensation. How about it?
Moreover, this key to the sky is related to the record of the sky. Maybe you are the destined person. ”
After hearing the old man’s words, before Xu Zimo could reply, he saw that the old man’s spirit had begun to dissipate.
The old man used his last strength to seal the key to heaven, and Xu Zimo took the key in his hand.
From a broad perspective, this Eternal God King has no selfish intentions, but is worthy of awe. He
also wants to do something for this continent with his last strength.
But what does this have to do with him, Xu Zimo? If those remnants don’t provoke him, he doesn’t bother to pay attention.
Without the existence of the remnant soul of the Eternal God King, the entire Stairway to the Gods seemed a little dim.
Xu Zimo was teleported down from the ninth floor.
When he stepped out of the Stairway to the Gods and left to the outside world, he was shocked by the scene in front of him.
I saw a dense crowd surrounding the Stairway to the Gods.
It seems that all the people in the city have gathered here to see the person who has inherited the legacy for the first time in tens of thousands of years.
The crowd was crowded and dense, and the discussion was so loud that it could almost rupture the eardrums of ordinary people.
And in A group of blue-robed disciples surrounded the ladder. They
were isolated from the noisy crowd and seemed to be waiting for Xu Zimo to appear.
Xu Zimo recognized that this style of blue robe was the dress of the Eternal God Sect.
Among this group of blue-robed disciples, there was a leader.
The leader was a middle-aged man in a dark blue gown, who was full of power.
Just standing there, the whole world seemed to be suppressed. He had a beard and a majestic aura.
Behind the middle-aged man, there were many people.
There were white-haired old men, gentle scholars, and big men who looked like peerless beasts.
These people had different forms, but without exception, they were majestic and heavy.
They were not ordinary people at first glance.
There were so many people gathered around, but no one dared to create chaos and cross the blockade of the blue-robed disciples.
Because everyone knew that the core figure in this group of people would stomp his feet and shake the whole continent.
