"How the fuck did they find something like this?" Lin Wu said in surprise.
He was currently reading through the new information that had just been obtained by the Tieba City lords. Lin Wu was resting and comprehending before this but had been woken up due to the notification of the system.
In front of him, there were several screens that showed the newly gathered information.
"So there really was a calamity fiend?" Lin Wu was surprised.
The information he had taken from the Tieba city lords was about the so called calamity fiend. They were the first ones to find out about it after the Chan sect and the Dark Plains sect.
The spies of the Tieba city had intercepted this information before letting it pass though. They themselves were wondering what kind of a monster Lin Wu was and now that they could let others burden the weight, there was no way they'd spend their own effort.
It was like a fresh pie that had fallen from the sky in front of a starving bigger. No way anyone would let go of an opportunity like this.
Thus, even the greedy Tieba City lords let the information spread. And not just that, they even got their contacts and influence to spread the news even further, letting it be known to each and every commoner.
'Sheesh… I originally intended to take my time to spread the fear, but now it seems like they've done it for me.' Lin Wu thought to himself.
There was a ton of information that he had to go through as the Tieba city lords gathered more than the records that the two sects had disseminated. They actively searched for any supporting documents for the so called 'sage' of the past as well as any remnants from back then.
This information was rather surprising for Lin Wu since he could tell it was not entirely correct.
"While they might be mistaken due to having no other concrete proof, I certainly have that…" Lin Wu muttered before pulling up the information that the Taiji Celestial's tomb's array stored.
The system had recently had a breakthrough with the encryption of the array recently and had obtained more information. This was information about the past of the Ming Dao world, but Lin Wu had yet to take a complete look at it.
"Hmm… this Calamity Fiend… there is no specific description about it in the records that the Chan sect and Dark Plains sect obtained." Lin Wu noted. "But, the Taiji Celestial's tomb clearly describes it being an Immortal cultivator that had gone insane after having Qi deviation." he read.
According to the information from the tomb, the so called Calamity Fiend was just a human cultivator from a higher world. He had cultivated an unorthodox technique that allowed him to get strong, but at the cost of his mind.
He had killed and offended too many people in the immortal world and was pursued by a lot of enemies. In the end, he had to run away and ended up falling into a spatial vortex that put him near the Ming Dao world.
Being injured and tired, the Ming Dao world was like a ripe fruit for him. And finding that there were basically no cultivators there even made him act without restraints. After all, even if he was greatly weakened, his strength was still great.
To the humans of that time who basically lived as savages, he was no less than a demon god descending on their world. His powers seemed great to them but if a person of the current time saw it, while they might find it to be the peak of this world, it wasn't something unfathomable to them.
In fact, if there were Immortal Ascension realm cultivators in that time they might have even been able to restrain them.
"Even the so called 'sage' didn't come here for 'enlightening' commoners. He was simply pursuing the 'calamity fiend' as a bounty hunter." Lin Wu continued to read, finding it all funny.
The 'sage' wasn't even that strong of an expert. Sure, he might be strong compared to the standards of the Ming Dao world, but he was just an average immortal cultivator of the Immortal realm.
The calamity fiend had a big bounty on his head, but due to his power, not many dared to go after him. But this bounty hunter was in lucky and found the man to be in a weakened condition.
But even then, he had a lack of information as the Calamity fiend had recovered a part of his powers till then and gave him a tough battle. In the end, the bounty hunter could only use his trump card and seal the calamity fiend forcefully.
"HAHAHA! The inheritance he left behind wasn't even intentional. His storage treasures broke in the battle and ended up being taken by the savages of that time." Lin Wu laughed.
After reading all this, he managed to confirm one thing.
'Whoever wrote this record wasn't a historian… he was a fucking story teller!' Lin Wu reckoned.
Though one thing the record got correct was the timeline of the events. The appearance of the calamity fiend and the sage happened long before the three guardian beasts' existence.
"Not just that… it appeared even before the Taiji Celestial's tomb was established and the strange being inside it was sealed." Lin Wu muttered to himself.
Lin Wu had wondered if the strange being sealed in the tomb and the calamity fiend were the same thing. But after seeing the data from the tomb, he could confirm that both were different.
'That thing in the tomb is way beyond that calamity, fiend. It's something that can power the tomb all over these years without being eliminated. It cannot be taken lightly.' Lin Wu thought to himself.
He continued to look through the auxiliary information for another hour and updated himself about it all.
"Regardless of whether the Calamity fiend was real or not… it is now real and I shall be the Calamity Fiend!" Lin Wu said with a wide smile.
