Ice and Fire Dragon King, Inheritance of the Ice God
Chapter 61 Ice and Fire Dragon King, Inheritance of the Ice God
In addition, countless fragmented memories flooded into Shen Hanyu's mind. Some of these memories took place in a world completely covered by wind and snow, while others took place in a mystical world filled with celestial energy.
Countless figures slowly appeared and then slowly disappeared. They were all different in form and each had a different expression on their face. Incredibly, the sense of oppression that any one of them brought to Shen Hanyu was as terrifying as a towering mountain.
Shen Hanyu could clearly sense that the world within that ice and snow was definitely the far north of the Douluo Continent.
As for the world or plane that is clearly at a higher level than the Douluo World, it should be the so-called Douluo God Realm.
The overwhelming and illogical memories left Shen Hanyu momentarily stunned. His brain raced, and his mind was in turmoil. Tianmeng, who was completely unaware of what was happening, was so anxious that she almost burst into tears.
After a long while, Shen Hanyu's dull eyes finally regained their vitality. The intense dizziness made him stagger as he walked, but the extra memory fragments became incredibly clear.
In the final scene, he saw with absolute clarity that the rhombus-shaped crystal in his sea of consciousness was thrown into the endless starry sky by that beautiful woman with a powerful force. As for why it had appeared in his sea of consciousness now, Shen Hanyu could not find any reason.
Tianmeng twisted her body forward and asked cautiously:
"Hanyu, are you alright?"
Shen Hanyu rubbed his throbbing forehead and said softly:
"I don't know exactly what happened, but this crystal sent many fragmented memories into my brain. The only thing I'm certain of is that this crystal undoubtedly came from a powerful deity..."
"As for why it entered my spiritual sea, it's probably because the aura of extreme ice on my body resonated with the energy in this crystal, making it feel that I was a host with whom it could coexist..."
As soon as Shen Hanyu finished speaking, Tianmeng opened her mouth, but didn't say anything.
Objects from the gods were far too advanced for mortals to obtain; instead of bringing joy, they faced endless threats.
Just as the two were lost in thought in silence, a soft laugh rang out in the empty space, breaking the almost eternal stillness.
"What an interesting little creature! I haven't seen any living life for tens of thousands of years..."
The voice wasn't loud, yet it clearly appeared in every corner of this space, and a sense of age permeated everyone's hearts.
"Ha, two tiny creatures the size of insects actually managed to inherit that person's legacy, they're really lucky..."
Another voice rang out, and compared to the calm voice before, the owner of this voice was obviously much more agitated, accompanied by a surge of scalding heat.
Shen Hanyu waved his hand, releasing a burst of cold air that blocked the heat that seemed capable of burning through space.
Upon hearing the voice, Tianmeng trembled. Then, as if remembering something, she hid in the deepest part of Shen Hanyu's spiritual sea, curling up and trembling all over, not even daring to peek out.
Shen Hanyu was silent for a moment, then suddenly chuckled softly and said in a low voice:
"You two seniors are quite interesting. You've been staring at this junior for so long, don't you intend to reveal your true faces?"
As Shen Hanyu finished speaking, the originally dark space suddenly became bright, and Shen Hanyu could almost see two enormous dragon corpses in the distance at a glance.
The flesh and blood on the dragon corpse had almost disappeared, revealing bones as white as jade, yet it still exuded an overwhelming pressure.
Two enormous dragon souls, one blue and one red, appeared in the sky. Their huge dragon eyes were incredibly hollow and empty, yet they still possessed an indescribable majesty.
Shen Hanyu looked at the two enormous dragon souls above, bowed slightly, and said:
"Greetings to the two seniors, the Ice and Fire Dragon Kings."
A glint of light appeared in the Ice Dragon King's empty eyes, and he said calmly:
"You know of our existence, or rather, what is your purpose...?"
Shen Hanyu nodded and said:
"From the moment I entered this space, I felt two faint gazes fall upon me. Although my spiritual power found nothing, my intuition told me that it was impossible for two powerful beings who were almost at the pinnacle of the God Realm in their lifetimes to not even retain a trace of their divine consciousness after tens of thousands of years of death. The only possibility is that I have something or value that you value, which is why you did not choose to attack me immediately but instead observed me silently. At the same time, my purpose is indeed to be with you two seniors."
The Ice Dragon King smiled slightly, not denying anything Shen Hanyu said.
The Fire Dragon King's fiery temper wouldn't allow him to be as calm as the Ice Dragon King; he immediately snorted and said:
"You conceited brat, I now regret not killing you immediately."
Shen Hanyu chuckled lightly, stood up slightly unsteadily, and said calmly:
"If you two seniors wanted to attack me, you should have done so two years ago when I first entered the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, instead of leaving your primordial energy on me. Isn't that a roundabout way of doing things? I don't think you two seniors could really bring yourself to do it, do you?"
"Kid, you..."
The Fire Dragon King was somewhat furious, but was immediately stopped by the Ice Dragon King.
The Fire Dragon King's empty dragon soul glared fiercely at Shen Hanyu, then snorted coldly and retreated.
The Ice Dragon King chuckled, then said directly:
"You're right. From the first time you appeared, I sensed an indescribable power emanating from you. I didn't know what it was, but now I'm certain, that power... is what's called destiny..."
Shen Hanyu's expression became much more serious. After a moment of silence, he said:
"I can't judge whether what the two seniors said is right or wrong. The real destiny doesn't lie with me. I'm more like a despicable weakling who, for the sake of so-called immortality and a thought that appeared out of nowhere, forcibly imposed this so-called destiny upon myself. I'm more cowardly than anyone else, so I don't distinguish between justice and evil. Isn't that my strength?"
The Ice Dragon King sighed, its enormous dragon soul slowly roaming in the utterly silent space, a whisper, almost imperceptible, falling from its lips:
"Back in the realm of gods, I once believed in absolute right and wrong, good and evil. But later I discovered that what I defined as right and wrong, good and evil, seemed like a terrible joke to others. True evil hides beneath the surface of kindness, while true kindness always exists only in one's own heart..."
