Collect the rags and I become a clairvoyant doctor

Chapter 2059: Ice Emperor, Secret

I have to say that the other party's explanation made Ran Ling feel a little cold.

She and the people she brought in this time all achieved a breakthrough in the crater, but the person in front of her now said that the place was a mass grave.

When she thought about how she and others had broken through by absorbing the power of the dead, she felt a little uncomfortable.

"Senior, are you familiar with this place?" After swallowing hard, Ran Ling asked again.

"Not familiar, but not unfamiliar either." The illusory woman said something that made Ran Ling a little confused.

"So is this familiar or unfamiliar?" Ran Ling asked, scratching his head.

"If you have anything you want to ask, please ask now. I don't have much time left." The illusory woman gave Ran Ling a deadline.

"You just said that this place is known as the returning place of the gods. I want to know what that is." Since the other party gave him the freedom to ask, Ran Ling would of course ask the most important things.

"Don't you realize that many people died in this place?"

“Moreover, these people all possessed extremely powerful fighting abilities during their lifetime, but in the end they all died here. A place that buries so many powerful people deserves to be called the Guixu Land of the Gods, right?” The illusory woman said calmly.

"Senior, I have another question, that is, was the ladder to heaven a scam back then?" Ran Ling asked another fatal question.

Ever since Qin Fei obtained the mysterious parchment scroll last time, a dark cloud has been hanging over their heads.

They once speculated that the so-called ladder to heaven was simply a scam, and its purpose was to kill the vast number of practitioners.

Since the person in front of him was willing to tell him this information, Ran Ling would definitely ask about it.

"You actually know how to climb the ladder to heaven?" Hearing Ran Ling's words, the illusory woman's tone was obviously a little surprised.

"Not only do I know there is a ladder to heaven in this place, I also know there is another place where there is a ladder to heaven!" Ran Ling said shockingly and directly told what he knew.

It can be seen that after she told these things, the look of shock on the face of the illusory woman became even more intense.

"How do you know so many secret things?" the illusory woman couldn't help but ask.

"Because we have been to these two places and have seen them both." Ran Ling replied: "Since you know these things, can you tell me whether this ladder to heaven is a scam?"

"If someone else had asked me, I would definitely not have told you, but since you are my disciple, you are also my disciple. To be honest, the Heaven Ladder is indeed a scam, and its purpose is to attract a large number of cultivators to come and die!"

The illusory woman glanced at Ran Ling, and then continued: "Not only that, I also participated in it!"

Ran Ling: “…….”

She never expected that the person in front of her was also involved in the layout. So how powerful is she?

"Don't look at me like that. The truth may be different from what you imagine. I'm not the person you think I am!"

The illusory woman sighed, and then told a secret.

In fact, this secret realm was originally the headquarters of the sect where the woman lived. This sect was known as one of the super powers of their time and was called Tiannv Valley.

This is a sect whose majority members are women, and the woman in front of him is known as the Ice Emperor, with a cultivation level that is unparalleled.

But there is always someone better than you.

Originally they were practicing peacefully in this place, but one day, a very powerful person broke into their Tiannv Valley and threatened countless Tiannv Valley disciples to force the Ice Emperor to submit.

There was no other choice, so the Ice Emperor finally gave this position to them.

Those people began to make large-scale arrangements in this place, and finally built a staircase connecting heaven and earth.

It can be said that Tiannv Valley was also a complete victim. When this staircase was completed, most of the disciples of Tiannv Valley had their strength sucked away and turned into mummies.

Because they were forced to do hard labor by the other side.

The Ice Queen originally wanted to cooperate with the other party so that they would let Tiannv Valley go, but in the end she was disappointed. Afterwards, not only were all the people in Tiannv Valley killed by the other party, but she, the leader, also could not escape death.

If she hadn't used a secret technique to preserve a trace of her soul at the last moment and sealed it until now, she would probably never have been able to reappear in the world.

"What is their purpose in doing this?" Ran Lingxin couldn't help but feel disappointed after hearing the Ice Emperor's explanation.

To dare to set up such a killing spree, the strength of those strongest people must have reached the top level. Ran Ling dared not imagine such a realm.

"For what else?"

"Of course it's to become an immortal!"

The Ice Emperor sighed, and then said: "No matter what realm you are in, your life span is actually limited. Immortality is mostly just a distant dream."

"But some people just don't believe this. They began to study the shady method of becoming an immortal in secret, and finally came up with an evil method that sacrificed all living things!"

"Climbing the ladder is just to attract those people to come and die. The real purpose of the person behind the scenes is just to collect their blood essence."

hiss……

Hearing this, Ran Ling couldn't help but take a breath of cold air. She never expected that everything started with someone else's greed.

Endless skeletons, countless bloody lives, and even the end of an era.

Crazy!

Just crazy!

Shocked, Ran Ling took a long time to digest the news. She asked hurriedly, "What's the difference between the ladder here and the ladder in another place?"

"Diversion!"

The Ice Emperor gave the answer.

After hearing this answer, although Ran Ling had guessed it in his mind, he was still shocked.

Even those who were allowed to come and die had to be diverted, which shows that the number of deaths was simply countless.

"Do you still want to ask why we do this?" The Ice Emperor said the following sentence like a worm in Ran Ling's stomach.

"That's right!" Ran Ling nodded, and then said: "Why do they do this?"

"Isn't this simple?" The Ice Emperor smiled sadly: "There is actually a huge altar at the bottom of each ladder. If they want to absorb the essence and blood of others, they need the person who wants to die to arrive in front of the ladder."

"If the people with too big a difference in cultivation are not separated, those with low cultivation will have no way of reaching the ladder to heaven. So they do this to ensure that most of those who are going to die can be used by them!"

terror!

terrible!

All kinds of thoughts were surging in Ran Ling's mind, making her unable to calm down for a long time.

She had not thought that she would hear such news. The people who made plans in the last era of cultivation could no longer be described as having annihilated humanity. Such people were simply the cancer of the era!

He killed countless people for his own selfish interests and even destroyed an era.

Hasn't he ever thought about such an outcome?

"My time is running out. Do you have any questions?"

This remnant soul of the Ice Emperor cannot stay in the world for too long. As time goes by, her power is actually weakening. Once her power is completely weakened, all traces of her survival will disappear between heaven and earth.

"There must be people who survived the last era of cultivation. Did they really reach the end of the ladder to heaven?" At this time, Ran Ling raised another question.

It is probably impossible for people of our current era to reach the end of the ladder, and those who planned it will definitely not die so easily, so their whereabouts remain a mystery.

Unfortunately, after hearing her question, the Ice Emperor shook his head and said, "When the Stairway to Heaven was first built, I was ruthlessly slaughtered by them, so I don't know where they went, and I don't know what is at the end of the Stairway to Heaven."

Although the Ice Emperor provided these people with a place to build the Stairway to Heaven, she certainly could not know most of the secrets about the Stairway to Heaven because it was impossible for others to let her know.

"There is another question. In the last cultivation era, a group of people mysteriously fell into a coma and remained in a deep sleep until they woke up in our era. Who was responsible for this?"

Seeing that the Ice Emperor's figure was becoming increasingly faint, Ran Ling quickly asked another question.

"That... I don't know."

The Ice Emperor fell before the war broke out, so how could she know who had made these people fall into a coma until now?

Besides, there are thousands of powerful people in the world, and it is impossible for other people’s top-secret information to be revealed, so this question has to be answered by modern people themselves.

"My body is about to dissipate. Since you are my disciple, you are also my disciple. You can take my inheritance..."

As soon as the Ice Queen finished her voice, she suddenly raised her arm and pointed her finger directly at the center of Ran Ling's eyebrows.

Soul mark inheritance!

The Ice Emperor forcibly passed on his inheritance to Ran Ling without Ran Ling's consent.

The inheritance time is not long, just one minute.

But after one minute passed, the Ice Emperor's body had become extremely dim, as if a gust of wind could blow it away.

"From now on, you will be the 49th generation master of Tiannv Valley!"

At this time, the Ice Emperor spoke to Ran Ling solemnly.

"Yes!"

Ran Ling also realized that the other party's body was about to disappear. In order to make the other party disappear without any regrets, she immediately followed the other party's words and continued.

First, she received the inheritance from Junior Sister Ice Emperor, and now she has received the inheritance from Ice Emperor again. Under such circumstances, what reason does Ran Ling have to refuse to become the master of Tiannv Valley?

"It's a pity that we have practiced Taoism for our entire lives, but in the end we have become stepping stones for others to advance. It's really sad... and lamentable!"

Glancing down at Ran Ling, the Ice Emperor's power began to disintegrate rapidly.

"Live on and carry on our sisterly heritage..." After leaving behind the last words, the Ice Emperor's entire body turned into spots of light all over the sky.

A super-powerful and extraordinary person just disappeared like that, which made Ran Ling suddenly feel indescribable discomfort in his heart.
