《The Demon's Gate》Chapter 76: Filled with questions.

Chapter 76: Filled with questions. While Yao Jun was looking at the massive Demonic beast below him, he was stunned to see the head of the Demonic beast turn towards him. The head was shaped like a turtle's head, with two massive eyes that looked like they were made out of granite. The eyes turned to Yao Jun, staring straight at him. The eyes seemed to contain a mixture of hatred and helplessness. While Yao Jun was shocked and apprehensive, the Demonic beast beneath him was feeling helpless. It had slept in this spot for countless years already, enjoying the peaceful years it had fought so hard to acquire. Dynasties had risen and fallen on it's back, but it had simply ignored all of it and continued to sleep. It had only awoken because it felt the power belonging to the invaders being used nearby. Before there were any filthy humans on this planet, it had lived here with it's kinsmen, enjoying living on this planet that was theirs. Had it not been for the fact that they were attacked by the forgotten gods and forced to sign a contract, there would never be any of these filthy humans on their planet. It wanted to kill this shattered fragment above it and return to sleep, but because of the ancient contract, they were forbidden from touching each other. Ignoring this fragment and just returning to it's slumber was also impossible, as it would be reminded of that ancient battle whenever it felt the energy coming from the fragment. With these thoughts in mind, it felt helpless as it came to it's conclusion, to leave. “Shattered fragment of a forgotten demon god, seeing as you have awoken on this stretch of land, I will yield this once and leave. But if you enter my territory in the future, even though I am forbidden from touching you because of that ancient agreement, I will make certain that you shall leave behind that little life of yours. The same goes for that shattered fragment of a forgotten illusion god.” While the two were looking at each other, a powerful voice rang out directly in Yao Jun's mind. The voice was booming and powerful, echoing within his mind, sounding like it was the voice of the very earth itself. The voice seemed to rumble through his entire body, causing every inch of his body, even his Demon God's Gate, to tremble. The trembling brought with it a nauseating feeling that pressed down on Yao Jun's chest, there was even a tiny crack that started to appear on his Demon God's Gate. Yao Jun wanted to respond, but there were too many questions floating in his mind for him to be able to form a coherent sentence at the moment. What did it mean when it called him a shattered fragment of a forgotten demon god? What ancient agreement was it talking about? Before he managed to form a coherent sentence, the massive Demonic beast beneath him turned it's head away from him and started moving. It did not move the way Yao Jun expected it to. Instead, it's entire body turned into a massive cloud of brown Qi. Even the city that had once existed on it's back transformed into this brown Qi. Once it's entire body had transformed, it flew off into the distance, flying in the direction of the Yang continent. The Demonic beast vanished as suddenly as it appeared, only filling Yao Jun with more questions than he ever had. Since it called him a shattered fragment of a forgotten demon god, and Guo Luo a shattered fragment of a forgotten illusion god, he could guess that it had something to do with their God Gate powers. But just what it was talking about, he had no way of knowing. Yao Jun shook his head and threw the thoughts out of his mind. That Demonic beast had reached a completely unfathomable level of power, Yao Jun was far too weak to try and find out the truth. If he became strong enough in the future, he could then consider learning the truth. Yao Jun sat down and pat Little Gray on the head, giving it the order to lower the altitude as well as look for a city where they could rest. His head was throbbing and his vision was starting to turn blurry. He had circulated all his Qi into his eyes to see the entire body of the Demonic beast, he was completely devoid of power. He brought Guo Luo out from the gate as it seemed safe now. The moment Guo Luo appeared, she immediately swept the surroundings with her gaze, examining their current location. “What happened back there, where are we now? Are you okay?” Yao Jun had pulled her into the gate before the Demonic beast fully appeared, but she had still felt the shaking and seen the mountains crack before she was pulled into the gate, so she was curious about what happened. Guo Luo could also see that Yao Jun was also abnormally pale, his complexion as white as snow, so she couldn't help but worriedly ask. “It was a Demonic beast, a truly humongous Demonic beast.” Yao Jun quickly summarized what had happened as well as what the Demonic beast had told him. He spoke hurriedly, skipping over several minor details. The throbbing in his head was getting worse, making it hard for him to concentrate. Once he finished talking, his body started swaying, prompting Guo Luo to move forward and support him with her shoulders. “I seem to have drained a bit too much Qi, leaving me with no energy. Im sure i'll be fine after a bit of rest.” Yao Jun squeezed out a forced smile as he spoke, but Guo Luo could see that his eyes weren't even looking at her, but rather to the area next to her. Clearly, he was already incapable of seeing straight. “Find a safe place to hide, trust no one.” Yao Jun could feel his consciousness start slipping as he spoke. With the threat of unconsciousness looming over him, he quickly spoke to Guo Luo and gave Little Gray a few mental orders. Once he finished giving the orders, the throbbing in his head turned into a low droning that reverberated through his entire body, and his vision turned black.

There are two reasons this is revealed so early and directly. One: Not revealing that information quickly and not asking questions about it would be completely OoC for the characters involved in that scene. Two: It's information you, the reader, need to know before the main story can really get started. Namely, the "secrets not even the gods know about".
