“Old ancestor, do you know the identity and background of that uninvited outsider?”

After a long silence, Tushan Cangyue asked.

In response, Tushan Jue sighed and shook his head.

“We don’t know much about that person’s identity and background. We only heard him call himself the First Emperor.”

The First Emperor?

Hearing this name, the hiding Lin Wudao found it very unfamiliar, but he remembered it in his heart.

“Through the laws of the Mountain Mausoleum Area, the First Emperor marked the life source of all living beings with a law imprint. Therefore, all living beings in the Mountain Mausoleum Area are not allowed to take a step out for the rest of their lives. In short, this is a cage. You can only enter and not leave. Once a living being in the Mountain Mausoleum Area goes out without permission, they will be punished by the laws of heaven and earth and die. Because of this, although the realm gate of Mountain Mausoleum Area will open every once in a while, no one has ever left.”

“It’s not that we don’t want to leave, but we can’t! This is also the fundamental reason why we started the Heaven Crusade War against the First Emperor. The First Emperor used laws to bind the fate of all living beings, hoping to use the power of all beings to return. Only by winning the Heaven Crusade War and killing the First Emperor can the living beings of the Mountain Mausoleum Area be freed from their shackles. This is the fate of the Mountain Mausoleum Area. No one should forget it. On top of that, this legacy must be passed down. If a miracle happens one day, we must start the Heaven Crusade War again and take back the fate of all beings!” Tushan Jue said with a solemn expression. His eyes were filled with a strong yearning.

Hearing this, Tushan Cangyue didn’t know where the First Emperor was, or how powerful he was, but she didn’t dare to forget him.

Just as Tushan Jue had said, this was the fate of all living beings in the Mountain Mausoleum Area. The Heaven Crusade War was a battle for life!

“Oh right, old ancestor, the people of the eastern region where the Great Green Mountain is in is restricted to the perfection of the Divine Illumination realm. We can’t break through to the Divine Power realm. Is this also related to the First Emperor too?”

Suddenly, Tushan Cangyue seemed to have thought of something and asked.

“Yes. After the Heaven Crusade War, all the True Gods and Demigods of the Mountain Mausoleum Area died. Then, under the will of the First Emperor, a shrine was established. The master of the shrine is the spokesperson in the human world supported by the First Emperor. The former is specially used to help the latter manage and rule the human world,” Tushan Jue replied.

So that was how it was. The Shrine was actually the spokesperson of the First Emperor in the human world?

This news greatly surprised Tushan Cangyue and Lin Wudao.

Even though they knew that the Shrine had an extraordinary background, they did not expect it to be so powerful. To think it involved the ultimate secret of the Mountain Mausoleum Area.

“Old ancestor, what is the Dual World War about?”

“The Dual World War?”

“Oh, the so-called Dual World War is a racial war between the humans and the foreign races in the eastern region. The humans are under the leadership of the Eastern Shrine, fighting for territory and resources through war…”

Tushan Cangyue explained the Dual World War.

After listening to it, Tushan Jue frowned and shook his head.

“Regarding the Dual World War, I don’t have any knowledge or understanding of it. However, anything that involves the First Emperor is definitely not that simple. There must be some kind of unspeakable secret behind this Dual World War. You have to treat it with caution,” He warned solemnly.

After saying that, Tushan Jue slightly waved his hand, and the mysterious treasure chest in the statue’s hand instantly landed in front of Tushan Cangyue.

He opened it and inside was an ancient jade book and a mysterious token.

“This is the God of War’s Strategy that I wrote in the past. It contains the secret techniques and abilities of the Tushan family. In addition, it also records some strange things in the Mountain Mausoleum Area, as well as many secrets. You can bring it back to the Tushan family and cultivate diligently to strengthen our people.”

“As for that token, it’s the World Key. It’s fused with a wisp of the Mountain Mausoleum Area’s world origin. Its greatest use is to trigger the laws and start the Heaven Crusade War. If a miracle happens one day, you can use this World Key to help the people of the Mountain Mausoleum Area regain control of their fates.”

“Remember, this item cannot fall into the hands of the First Emperor. It is the last hope of the Mountain Mausoleum Area. Similarly, without this World Key, the First Emperor cannot break free from the shackles of the Mountain Mausoleum Area’s laws and reconstruct his human body. This is what we obtained with the blood and lives of many Divine Kings, Heavenly Gods, and True Gods in countless Heaven Crusade Wars. It is also the only thing which we can control the First Emperor,” Tushan Jue warned seriously.

This World Key had been obtained with the lives of many powerhouses from the Mountain Mausoleum Area. They had paid a huge price for it.

Hearing Tushan Jue’s description, Tushan Cangyue understood the importance of the World Key.

“Old ancestor, don’t worry. The Tushan family will protect the World Key with our lives.”

She bowed heavily.

“Yes. Actually, it’s safest to leave the World Key here. To enter this place, you need the Sword of War. As long as the First Emperor doesn’t get the Sword of War, he will never get the World Key.”

At this point, Tushan Jue remained silent for a while, then pointed at the jade boxes on the altar.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

With a wave of his hand, all the jade boxes were opened.

In an instant, streams of dazzling divine light swept out like a flood.

In those jade boxes were all kinds of divine items and supreme treasures, a total of nine. There were three True God-level divine herbs, three True God-level divine weapons, three divine pills, and some divine stones.

“These things are the ultimate foundation of the ancestral land. They are not many, but they can help the Tushan family. Take them back. I hope that one day, the Tushan family can live up to my expectations and rebuild its former glory. If that’s the case, even if I die, I can rest in peace…”

As soon as he finished speaking, Tushan Jue looked deeply at Tushan Cangyue, then disappeared from the world with endless sadness and helplessness.

From then on, there was no longer a God of War in the world.

“Sigh… I didn’t expect that the Tushan family to have such a heavy responsibility and mission. If it was before, the secrets of the Mountain Mausoleum Area and this World Key would have been buried with the Tushan family in the long river of history. But things are different now. With the Qingshan Great God, the Tushan family can certainly rebuild our former glory. In the future, we might even possibly overthrow the First Emperor. Perhaps, one day, 1 can also witness a Heaven Crusade War…” Tushan Cangyue murmured.

Then, she pondered for a long time and took out the God of War’s Strategy from the treasure chest. After that, she put the World Key back into the chest again and placed it in the hands of the statue.

After all of this was done, Tushan Cangyue took the divine items on the altar, then bowed to Tushan Jue’s statue before leaving the temple.

Whoosh!

After she left, Lin Wudao walked out of the darkness and took the World Key in his hand..
