Hearing this, the two God-Kings and the other gods were stunned.
Previously, the Curse Realm Protector had been very determined to kill them. Now, he could almost kill the two Godly Monarchs. As long as he killed the Godly Monarchs, it would be a piece of cake for him to kill the others. If he really wanted to sue for peace, he should have said so from the beginning, not now …
So this surprise came too suddenly, and everyone couldn't react.
This wasn't just a surprise, it was a ray of hope for survival.
Long Chen heaved a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the Curse Realm Protector had listened to him. Although he didn't know what would happen in the future, if the Curse Realm Protector killed them, God-King Jun would definitely kill them.
Although the two Godly Kings didn't quite understand, the Godly King of Hell immediately said, "We can understand your responsibility. It was our fault to intrude into this place without permission, so we lost a few Godly Friends. It can be considered a heavy punishment. Since you are willing to forgive us, we can naturally guarantee that we will not enter this place again in the future and cause trouble for you."
The Curse Realm Protector said, "I have another condition."
The Infernal Godking's expression changed. He was indeed afraid of the Curse Realm Protector's condition. In the battle just now, the Curse Realm Protector had been suppressing them.
Now was their only chance to survive. They could give up many things.
The gods became nervous again.
The Curse Realm Protector said, "The condition is … I want that Long Chen to stay with me for a while."
For a moment, the gods were silent.
The Infernal Godking coughed twice, feeling a bit awkward. This time, Long Chen had saved Di Yao twice. If they left him here, it would be too unkind. Everyone knew how terrifying the Curse Realm Protector was. If they left him here and he couldn't leave, it would be no different from dying.
Di Yao was the first to say, "No, we can't let him stay here."
But among the gods, only she said this. The others moved away, worried that they would be implicated. Although they were gods, their hearts were no different from humans. They were even more selfish.
Long Chen knew that the Curse Realm Guardian wouldn't do anything to him, so he said, "It doesn't matter. If I can trade myself, everyone can leave safely. It's a good deal, isn't it? We're all on the same side, so don't be polite with me. I'll stay here."
"That's right. The Curse Realm Protector didn't kill him twice. He's a Dragon Warrior, so he should be fine. Let's leave him here," the Mighty God said.
The God King of Hell couldn't give up the lives of all the Gods just for Long Chen. Now that Long Chen had agreed, even if Di Yao didn't agree, he couldn't do anything about it. He said to the Curse Realm Guardian, "Alright, let's do it."
Things were verbal. No one could enforce it. What would happen in the future was unknown. The Realm Protector didn't want to lose. The Mighty God didn 'care.
"You can't leave."
Di Yao was nervous. She grabbed Long Chen's arm. Her golden eyes flashed with anxiety and worry. It was rare for her to worry about him. Long Chen smiled and said, "Don't worry. I'm fine. Goodbye."
He was very decisive. He shook off Di Yao's hand. At this time, the Infernal Godking let him go outside.
"Long Chen, I'm sorry. We had no choice. We wanted to give you a reward."
The Infernal Godking said helplessly.
Long Chen didn't want to say more.
At this time, the Curse Realm Protector waved his arm. A golden vortex appeared not far away.
"Go."
The Curse Realm Protector said one word.
The Infernal Godking took one last look at Long Chen and said, "Take care."
After saying that, he and Astral Godking entered the golden vortex. In an instant, the golden vortex disappeared. They should have left the Curse Realm and returned to the Eastern Star Region.
Only Long Chen and the Curse Realm Protector were left.
To Long Chen, the Curse Realm Protector had many secrets. This place was closely related to the Dragon God. He must know many things he wanted to know.
"Senior, can you tell me who you are?"
The two of them stood facing each other in the ancient starry sky. Long Chen held his breath and asked in a low voice.
"I am the Curse Realm's Protector. I have been guarding this place for an epoch, perhaps even longer." The Curse Realm Protector was very kind.
An epoch was a hundred million years.
Of course, that wasn't the answer Long Chen wanted. He asked, "Then before you became the Curse Realm Protector, what was your identity?"
The Protector thought about it and seemed to have a headache. He shook his head and said, "I … I seem to be a … Dragon Attendant. It's been too long. I can't remember clearly. There's a gap in my memory. It's like it's been swallowed …"
It was obvious that remembering this part of his memory was painful.
"It's been swallowed."
Long Chen was stunned. He had never heard of something that could swallow a person's memory.
He heard the unfamiliar term 'Dragon Attendant' and was confused. He asked, "Dragon Attendant … What is it?"
The Curse Realm Protector said, "Dragon Attendants serve the Dragon God. They have part of the Dragon God's bloodline … Just like me, I vaguely remember that I once served an Ancestral Dragon … An epoch ago, Dragon Attendants should be your ancestor."
Long Chen was stunned.
He had never heard of such a thing. From the Curse Realm Protector's words, he was a human and a Dragon Attendant. The Era of the Dragon God was the origin of the human race. Although humans claimed to be the descendants of the Dragon God, they had never been clear about their relationship with the Dragon God. Now that the Protector said that Dragon Attendants were the ancestor of the human race and had part of the Dragon God's bloodline … Clearly, this was the truth of history.
Most importantly, he served an Ancestral Dragon.
That was a real Ancestral Dragon.
It was no wonder this person was so strong. He might even be more than a God King at the Grand Perfection Realm. Moreover, it was very likely that this wasn't his peak strength. He might even be sealed and cursed like the Black Dragon.
"Senior, can you tell me which Ancestral Dragon you served …?"
Long Chen asked anxiously.
The Curse Realm Protector shook his head in pain. "It's been too long. I can't remember. It should be related to the calamity and the Primordial Dragon's Calamity. My duty now is to protect this Curse Realm … to protect these cursed Dragon Gods …"
His mind wasn't very clear.
He was just slightly better than the cursed Dragon Gods.
"This Curse Realm is a tomb. The Dragon Gods have been buried here for a very long time."
The Curse Realm Protector said.
Long Chen asked the question he wanted to know the most. He said carefully, "Senior, I want to know who cursed them and buried them here …"
At this point, the Curse Realm Protector suddenly groaned in pain. He waved his hand. "Don't ask me that. I'm in great pain. I don't know. My memories here have been devoured …"
Long Chen was stunned.
It was just like the mysterious existence that Ji Yuan mentioned.
It was indeed mysterious. Even the clue of the Curse Realm Protector was broken.
Perhaps all he could remember was that he was just a Curse Realm Protector. He had to protect this place and kill everyone who came. At the same time, he was a Dragon Attendant who served the Ancestral Dragon. He was the ancestor of the human race.
He couldn't remember anything else.
Long Chen felt that he was quite pitiful. He was alone in this endless time and space, guarding this huge tomb. No one could communicate with him, and he drifted through the endless years.
Long Chen didn't ask about his past. Instead, he asked, "Senior, is there anything you need me to help you with? If there's anything you need, just let me know. I'll definitely risk my life for you."
The Curse Realm Protector shook his head. "No. I just want to give you something."
That was all.
Long Chen thought that it was something big.
The other party said, "You inherited the inheritance blood essence and are also a descendant of the Divine Dragon. Since you've become a God, you need to use the power of the Divine Dragon. This is for you."
He took out a pitch-black stone. It was extremely ancient. There were densely packed dragon patterns on it. It was shining brightly, and it was obvious that it was not an ordinary object.
"This is the Primordial Divine Dragon Heavenly Tribulation Secret Tome. It can allow your power to transform."
The Curse Realm Protector said.
Long Chen was surprised. "I haven't truly become a God yet. I can cultivate it now?"
The Curse Realm Protector nodded. "You can cultivate in this Curse Realm. After you succeed, you can leave."
So it turned out that he had stayed behind just for this.
Long Chen was pleasantly surprised. To be honest, he had planned to cultivate the Boundless Divine Technique after he became a god. After all, Di Yao still owed him a Genesis Tier Divine Technique. However, as the guardian of the Curse Realm had said, he was a divine dragon, so he should cultivate the power of a divine dragon, just like the black dragon and the guardian of the Curse Realm had done.
In terms of quality, it would definitely not be low.
Long Chen still didn't know how many benefits there were. But he was indeed very grateful to the Curse Realm Protector. Not only did he not kill him, but he also gave him so much face. In fact, it was because of him that the Gods were released.
"Many thanks for senior's gift. This junior will never forget it." Long Chen bowed deeply to express his gratitude.
The Curse Realm Protector said, "Think about it first. If you have any problems, call me."
After saying that, his figure gradually disappeared into the starry sky.
"What a mysterious person," Lingxi said seriously.
"He has stayed here alone for so long. He must be very lonely. Chen, if we have time, we should accompany him. He is our ancestor."
Long Chen nodded.
Not only was the Curse Realm Protector Long Chen's ancestor, but he was also the ancestor of the Primordial Gods. After all, that was the origin of the human race.
He sat down cross-legged and began to study the Primordial Divine Dragon Heavenly Calamity Tome that the Curse Realm Protector had given him. After reading it carefully, he was pleasantly surprised. With his current cultivation level, if he converted all the Divine Spirit Source Power, he would be able to reach the Genesis Tier. However, it would take much less time than others.
"Xiao Lang and the others are still waiting for me outside. The five Dragon Cities need someone to take charge. I have to settle this as soon as possible."
