Chapter 1091: Temptation From Beyond the Sky
The Sun King, who disappeared thousands of years ago, actually opened a blacksmith shop in the Red Castle, a border fortress, and made some kitchen knives and scissors for the common people all day long. Of course, he must not have been living here in seclusion all the time, otherwise a blacksmith who can live for thousands of years, even a fool would find him unusual.
Why did the Sun King choose to hide from the world? Is he already discouraged from breaking through the limit, or does he want to use this method to hone his mind and seek a breakthrough? In fact, these are not important, anyway, when Ye Zan and his party came to him, an opportunity was already in front of him.
Facing the Sun King, Ye Zan did not conceal his and others' origins, and even proved it to the other party with practical actions. After all, the identity of this extraterrestrial visitor is an important proof to convince the other party, and there is no need to cover up anything. Only by letting the Sun King know clearly that they are people from outside this world can they continue to talk about things like "breakthrough" and "leave".
It was not difficult to prove his identity. Ye Zan used the method of a monk to forge a weapon, and in front of the Sun King, he molded a piece of iron into a small iron statue. It is not impossible for the strong in this world to do such things, but the people in this world must use the power of this world. And Ye Zan used his own mana, which clearly proved to the other party that he could do it without relying on the power of this world.
And the Sun King, after seeing Ye Zan's actions, actually believed 70% to 80% of Ye Zan's identity as an extraterrestrial visitor. However, while believing in the other party's identity as an extraterrestrial visitor, he will naturally be more vigilant about the purpose of these extraterrestrial visitors.
In most people's hearts, there is always an instinctive rejection of outsiders, thinking that they must have no good intentions when they come here. This is actually a biological instinct of human beings, just like the territorial concept of lions and tigers. They are alert to all the same kind who invade their territory to ensure their own safety and food sources, etc.
Of course, from a human point of view, to put such a thing on a higher level is to protect the peace and tranquility of the world.
"You guys, what do you want to do?" The Sun King looked at Ye Zan and the others vigilantly, his low tone was unprecedentedly dignified, as if he would die with Ye Zan immediately if he failed to answer one of them.
Seeing the Sun King's posture, Ye Zan could understand it. He put the statue beside him gently, waved his hand with a smile, and said, "Don't be so nervous, the Sun King. We came to this world this time. Of course it's not a simple trip to another world, but it will definitely not be a bad thing for you."
"Us?" The Sun King frowned.
"Yes, as far as I know, in this world, you shouldn't be the only person like the Sun King whose strength has reached the limit of what the world can accommodate, right?" Ye Zan responded calmly.
Ye Zan's response can be regarded as showing to the other party from one aspect that he and his party are not here to make small troubles, but to do something big enough to affect the whole world. Such a thing can be good or bad, but in the ears of the Sun King, it is more likely to tend to be "bad".
Of course, Ye Zan also knew that his response to the other party would probably cause the other party to have a deeper misunderstanding.
However, Ye Zan didn't care too much about it. Anyway, no matter what kind of misunderstanding, as long as it doesn't cause a fierce conflict, it will be resolved in the end. On the contrary, it is blindly concealing, and then revealing a little bit. Although it may make the other party less vigilant at first, it will be more difficult to win people's trust in the end.
"Then, why did you find me first?" After a moment of silence, the Sun King asked again in a deep voice.
The Sun King is not the only one who is at the pinnacle of this world, and not all of them give up "fame and wealth" like him and live in seclusion. In this world, there are still some powerful people who form the so-called "Supreme Council" to guide the direction of the entire world and avoid the recurrence of the dark age like ten thousand years ago.
That is to say, in terms of the difficulty of "visiting", the easiest choice for Ye Zan and others should be to visit those strong people who are on the bright side first, rather than looking for those hiding in the corners sun king.
"It's very simple. You have enough influence. As long as you can convince you, you will be able to convince at least half of the powerful people in this world." Ye Zan said his reasons without concealment.
This Sun King not only had great achievements in ending the Dark Ages, but also had a pretty good relationship with other powerhouses of the same level. It can be said that at least half of the strong men that Ye Zan found out from the information were inextricably linked to the Sun King. For example, some are his disciples, some are his brothers, some are his admirers, some are his direct descendants, and so on.
Although, even if the Sun King is persuaded, it does not mean that half of the peak powerhouses are really persuaded, but at least the other party is more likely to be willing to sit down and talk. Faced with the temptation of "The Outer World", Ye Zan believes that as long as they are willing to sit down and talk, the final result will not deviate from his expectations.
For the "outer world", the peak powerhouses in this small world are probably similar to those supreme beings in the world of cultivation. Just like the world of cultivating Taoism, Immortal Court has opened the passage to the outer world, so many Tongtian Supremes from various realms have gone to the outer world to find breakthrough opportunities. For those of them who have reached a limit, having the opportunity to break through this limit is definitely the greatest temptation that can overwhelm all other desires.
"It seems that you did know a lot of things before you came here. However, I don't believe that you would want to bring people like us out of this world out of good intentions." The Sun King also People who have lived for tens of thousands of years, even if they were born in such a small world, will never be so naive as to think that Ye Zan and the others are purely "helping others".
"Of course, we have a purpose for doing this!" Ye Zan nodded without any embarrassment, and then said: "It's just that our purpose does not allow us to stand on opposing sides. It should be said that It is a matter of mutual benefit.”
Ye Zan's words are not deceitful, although collecting the corpses of the evil spirits outside the sky will definitely have an impact on this small world. However, as long as the two sides can sit down and talk, there are no other solutions. On the contrary, if the creatures on the side of the small world are determined to stand against Ye Zan, then Ye Zan really has nothing to show mercy.
You must know that although Ye Zan is not strong, he has a lot of means to destroy a world. Don't say it, don't say it, the gene pool he brought from the world of science and technology contains many highly contagious and devastating viruses. His personal strength is indeed nothing in this world, but if a small virus is dropped, those indigenous heroes may not really have anything to do.
"Then, this is not a place to talk. If you are sincere, come with me." Of course, the Sun King can't believe Ye Zan in a few words, but it's not good to continue to press here, so he proposed to change to another person to talk to. place.
After all, this is the residential area of the Red Castle, and the Sun King was worried that if he pressed the question too hard, if the visitors from outside these days turned against each other, it might cause a disaster here. As for whether I have enough strength to protect myself when facing these aliens alone, this is not so important.
In other words, if the two sides really fight, even if the Sun King has the strength to protect himself, he will not be able to protect the civilians around him. And if the Sun King doesn't have the ability to protect himself, no one here can help him, and it may even make him unable to use his hands and feet.
"Hehe, Sun King's proposal is exactly what I want to say!" Ye Zan responded with a smile.
Hearing Ye Zan's words, the Sun King didn't say anything more, he threw the hammer in his hand on the ground, and walked from Ye Zan and others to the outside of the blacksmith's house. Afterwards, he didn't seem to think about hiding his identity any more, and he bounced his legs slightly to the ground. In the eyes of so many civilians outside, he flew straight to the outside of the Red Castle like a shooting star.
"Brother Ye, isn't he going to run away?" Lin Mumu, who had been silent all this time, couldn't help but jokingly said.
"Of course not, let's follow." Ye Zan shook his head and smiled, and led everyone to turn around and leave the blacksmith house, turning into streamers and following in the direction of the Sun King.
However, compared to the Sun King, Ye Zan and others, as visitors from outer space, still hope to keep a low profile as much as possible for now. Therefore, while Ye Zan and the others flew up, they still used simple cover-ups to hide the vision caused by themselves and the others. As a result, the civilians outside the blacksmith house only saw the scene of the Sun King flying away in front of them, but none of them noticed that there was a group of flying people following behind.
Of course, even if it is just a Sun King, it is already a very shocking thing for these ordinary people who have not seen many big scenes. No one thought that the old blacksmith who had been working silently here for more than ten years actually had the ability to fly into the sky and escape from the earth, which is an ability only possessed by the legendary big men.
At the same time, the actions of the Sun King naturally attracted the attention of the garrison in the Red Castle, and soon a group of soldiers led by several generals came to the blacksmith's house in the civilian area. After hearing the descriptions of some witnesses, several generals walked into the blacksmith house with solemn and alert faces, and walked out holding an iron statue after a while.
In a blacksmith shop, there is such an iron statue of the Sun King, and this blacksmith is still very powerful. This is not enough to make these people connect this mysterious blacksmith with the Sun King who disappeared thousands of years ago. However, such a powerful person lived in seclusion in this border fortress, and it was said that he had lived in seclusion for more than ten years, which would inevitably make the garrison of the fortress nervous for a while.
Not to mention the movement of the Sun King's departure, what kind of waves caused in the Red Castle Fortress, the Sun King and Ye Zan and his party have already arrived at a barren place outside the Red Castle.
The Sun King was like a shooting star when it flew, and the movement when it landed was also not small, it really hit the ground like a meteor falling, and the huge impact even stirred up a mushroom cloud. Ye Zan and the others who came later saw the Sun King's actions, and they couldn't understand for a while whether the other party didn't have enough ability to fly, or they wanted to use it as a demonstration.
Of course, no matter what the other party's plan is, Ye Zan's plan remains the same, that is, it is best to use negotiation to resolve all conflicts.
After the Sun King landed, he stood in the middle of a smashed "meteor crater", turned back to look at Ye Zan and his party who followed. Seeing Ye Zan and others flying easily in the sky, and then lightly landed in front of him, although the expression on his face did not change, there was a hint of envy in his eyes.
"Tell me, what is your purpose?" Sun King suppressed all the emotions in his heart, and asked Ye Zan and others in a deep voice.
Ye Zan glanced around, then looked at the sky, then turned his gaze back to the Sun King, and said, "I don't know what kind of knowledge the Sun King has about this world, but do you know the origin of this world?"
The Sun King frowned slightly, and said with a little displeasure in his heart: "Why, do you want to test the origin of my world? Then I can only say sorry. I was born in the Dark Ages. I have neither received aristocratic education nor I haven't attended any church school, so I'm afraid I can't give you a definite answer."
There is a poem that says, "I don't know the true face of Lushan Mountain, but I only live in this mountain." This truth can actually be used in many places. No matter how powerful and farsighted the Sun King is, even if he has already stood at the pinnacle of this world, as long as he does not jump out of this world, it will be difficult to truly understand the origin of this world.
After all, the Sun King was not born with the world, but just one of the many creatures born in the world after the world evolved. Unless, he already has the ability to get out of this world, and has truly seen the world outside the small world, is it possible to know what kind of existence this world is like.
"Don't mind the Sun King. We are from outside this world, and we have some... understanding of this world that may seem unbelievable to you. The reason why I asked this question first is just to understand, what do you know about this world? The cognition of the world also needs to consider how to tell you the truth of the world." Ye Zan explained to the Sun King calmly with a very sincere attitude.
"Oh, then you can just talk about it. As for how much I can believe or accept, I don't need to worry about it." The Sun King said somewhat forcefully, somewhat repelling Ye Zan's statement. To him, what Ye Zan said was like people from the civilized world came to an ignorant world and told them that the earth is actually round, that wind and rain are just natural phenomena, etc., which seemed somewhat condescending.
