Chapter 1263 The Eye
Chen Yang naturally understood that the other party was referring to Jiang Jiantao.
"Yes, he was besieged and killed by the top powers of the Earth Realm who had gathered their cores over a thousand years ago."
"Did you know him from that time?"
"You seem very strong? Why didn't you go help him?"
Chen Yang did not directly ask for the other party's identity, as this guy seemed unaware of what he was.
"What did he call you?"
After Chen Yang bombarded him with a series of questions, the person before him was stunned for a moment.
After a long while, he spoke blankly, "He called me the Lord of the Earth Realm."
"According to the time he told me, I should have met him around a thousand years ago. At that time, he came here alone and took many things."
"He also left the bronze cauldron for me, saying it could help me recover somewhat."
"I wanted to help him, but I couldn't leave this place. If I left, everyone here would be destroyed."
The Lord of the Earth Realm spoke with great pain at this point.
Meanwhile, Chen Yang fell into a daze.
The Lord of the Earth Realm?
This person before him was the Lord of the Earth Realm?
What was going on!
"How long have you been here?" Chen Yang asked nervously.
The Lord of the Earth Realm mumbled Chen Yang's question repeatedly and slowly said, "It should be tens of thousands of years. I seem to have been severely injured."
"If it weren't for Jiang Jiantao, I wouldn't have been able to regain consciousness until now."
"The bronze cauldron is indeed a good thing, but it was absorbed by your bronze cauldron, so I can't use it anymore."
Hearing this, Chen Yang finally reacted.
The bronze cauldron itself was used to gather the luck of the human race, and according to the information Chen Yang had obtained earlier, it likely had even more mysterious functions.
However, gathering luck was a proven matter.
The Prefect of Yaodu Prefecture relied on the bronze cauldron, which he had snatched from the Sword Sect back then, to gather the luck of his race, allowing Yaodu Prefecture to dominate the Earth Realm for a thousand years.
This was enough to prove the power of this item.
Thus, the Lord of the Earth Realm's use of the bronze cauldron was probably not just about gathering luck.
Chen Yang's mind raced as he needed to gather more intelligence from other sources: "The anomalies around us, were they absorbed by you just now?"
The Lord of the Earth Realm nodded slowly. "Someone died. Each anomaly is formed after the death of a person or a group of people."
"If these things are not suppressed, they will become chaotic."
"It was fine when I appeared here before, but ever since I met Jiang Jiantao, every time I appear here, those things become agitated, and I can only temporarily contain them."
At this point, Chen Yang was completely certain.
The half-eye that had inexplicably appeared in the sky just now was this person before him.
Could that half-eye absorb all the anomalies here?
"Is it the incarnation of the Earth Realm's strongest individual from back then, or the so-called Heavenly Dao of the Earth Realm?" Chen Yang was also somewhat uncertain.
But what was certain was that merely relying on half an eye to survive for tens of thousands of years, and continuously suppressing all anomalies during this period…
This person's strength was far beyond the Nascent Soul realm.
"So, why did you personally appear? What do you want to tell me?"
Having confirmed that the person before him would not cause him any harm, Chen Yang finally relaxed.
However, Chen Yang did not believe that this person would go to such great lengths to appear just to have a heart-to-heart talk with him.
Seeing Chen Yang ask this question, the Lord of the Earth Realm said in a low voice, "If it were a thousand years ago, I wouldn't have said this, but it's been too long. I want to leave."
"I've heard many people talk about the outside world, and I want to see it."
"You can help me."
Chen Yang was stunned. How could he help?
"Cough, cough, don't joke. You are the Lord of the Earth Realm, and your strength has reached an unknown realm. The things you can suppress, do you think I, a cultivator at the fifth layer of Core Gathering, can suppress them?"
Faced with Chen Yang's confusion, the Lord of the Earth Realm's gaze suddenly fell upon the bronze cauldron in Chen Yang's hand, and he said word by word, "You can't, but it can."
"If it were just the bronze cauldron I used before, it wouldn't be enough."
"But the bronze cauldron you have is very powerful, it definitely can."
Chen Yang's mouth twitched. So, after all this trouble, they still wanted to use his bronze cauldron?
"What if I say I don't agree?" Chen Yang asked tentatively.
The Lord of the Earth Realm was startled, and his voice became somewhat urgent. "I will keep my promise. The bronze cauldron is yours; I just want to leave for a while."
"Your bronze cauldron can only help me suppress for a while."
Faced with the Lord of the Earth Realm's answer, Chen Yang couldn't help but laugh.
If this person were to leave, it would undoubtedly be a good thing for the human race.
After all, judging by their interaction, he and Jiang Jiantao seemed to have a significant connection.
Furthermore, using his own bronze cauldron would also require a "price."
"Alright, I can agree to this."
"But there are things I need to make clear with you beforehand. My bronze cauldron is used to help the human race, and now the human race has too many enemies."
"If the bronze cauldron is not by my side, and the human race encounters any danger, you must help the human race."
As soon as Chen Yang finished speaking, the Lord of the Earth Realm immediately nodded. "That's natural."
Chen Yang breathed a sigh of relief, took out what he needed from the bronze cauldron, and handed it directly to the other party.
After all, even if he wanted to run, it was too late.
It was better to take a gamble.
After all, if such a powerful being truly wanted to seize it, he would be powerless!
After the Lord of the Earth Realm took the bronze cauldron, the half-eye in the sky opened again.
The surrounding anomalies surged again, and they rushed wildly towards the Lord of the Earth Realm before Chen Yang's eyes.
The immense impact almost knocked Chen Yang to the ground.
It was at this moment that the Lord of the Earth Realm forcefully smashed the bronze cauldron in his hand onto the ground.
Instantly, Chen Yang felt as if the world around him had gone silent.
Chen Yang could feel the power of the trees from the bronze cauldron instantly grow, rooting themselves into the ground.
Every bit of anomalous energy was tightly gripped by the bronze cauldron.
The other powers within the bronze cauldron were also rapidly converting into the power of trees.
Seeing the Lord of the Earth Realm pat his hands and chuckle while looking at the bronze cauldron, Chen Yang reacted and asked dumbfoundedly, "It's… that simple?"
The Lord of the Earth Realm nodded vigorously. "It won't last long, but for a short period, it's perfectly fine."
"It does consume quite a bit of spiritual energy. Just wait a moment."
As the Lord of the Earth Realm disappeared, Chen Yang was still wondering what he was going to do.
But the next second, as three transparent substances appeared before Chen Yang's eyes, Chen Yang felt his worldview shatter.
