The moment the meridian was connected, a strange color appeared in Mr. Hou's eyes.
He was almost shocked.
How can this be
How could the severed meridians be reconnected
The Marquis wanted to ask Lu Li, but when he saw the half-smiling expression on Lu Li's face, he suppressed his doubts and said in a deep voice: "So what if you can connect the meridians? I am in Dantian." It has been destroyed, and the foundation of martial arts has been completely broken. Even if the meridians are intact, it is impossible to embark on the path of cultivation again... "
However, before the Marquis could finish these words, Lu Li had already raised his finger and once again activated a trace of golden energy, flowing that energy into the ruins of the Marquis' dantian.
After a while, the look of horror in Mr. Hou's eyes became even more obvious.
After that trace of golden energy was injected into the dantian, the 'ruins' that Mo Shenfeng penetrated with a ferocious technique gave a glimmer of life!
Although this glimmer of vitality is very weak, Mr. Hou can be sure that his feeling is absolutely correct.
What is the origin of this golden energy
The Marquis is sure that in his hundreds of years of experience, he has never heard of such powerful energy.
Even those legendary treasures of heaven and earth cannot allow a cripple whose Dantian has been destroyed to embark on martial arts again.
After all, this is something that even gods who claim to be gods cannot do.
Even if it is called a miracle, it is not an exaggeration.
Lu Li saw that the Marquis had seen how powerful it was, so he smiled and lowered his arms, and said calmly: "I said, the world is very big, and some things you have never seen before may not be impossible."
"The Marquis should know that His Highness Prince Yan's Dantian was shattered, and her invincible strength was reduced to nothing. If not, you would not dare to take action against her, even if you have great courage."
After hearing Lu Li's words, the Marquis fell into silence.
But he didn't deny it.
Because what Lu Li said was true.
If Mu Hongxiu hadn't been shattered by Dong Ao, no matter how bold they were, they wouldn't have dared to attack Mu Hongxiu.
Even if the outcome of the battle between Mu Hongxiu and Dong Ao was reversed, and Dong Ao was the one who was deposed, and Mu Hongxiu was only seriously injured, they would never be able to escape.
You must know that Mu Hongxiu has already shown absolute invincibility in combat. Even among all the top masters in Zhenwu Domain, she can still be ranked in the top three.
If her martial arts had not been abolished and she was just injured, no one would have dared to do anything to her. Even if they had the idea, they would have to worry about being sensed by the unrivaled Mu Hongxiu.
"So what."
After being silent for a long time, the Marquis said in a deep voice: "Do you want to tell me that although His Highness Prince Yan has his Dantian shattered, he can still embark on martial arts again?"
"You don't understand what it means when a top master's Dantian is destroyed!"
"Even if Mo Shenfeng breaks my Xuanmen, or even blasts through my Youfu, as long as my Dantian is still there... I will be able to return to the realm of a top master step by step. But he broke my Dantian, Xuanmen The You Mansion directly turned into nothingness, even if the Dantian is restored, I can no longer penetrate the Xuanmen and open up the You Mansion."
"Because, without the support of Dantian, Xuanmen and Youfu will enter a state between reality and illusion. They still exist, but they have completely disappeared!"
The Marquis' tone was a little excited, and at the end of the sentence, he even felt a little breathless.
Lu Li just looked at him quietly until he calmed down, then slowly said: "Master Hou still doesn't understand what I mean."
"This world is big, Tianwai... is even bigger!"
"Is the existing martial arts the only way for human beings? Who stipulated this?"
"Now that this martial arts path cannot be followed, don't you know how to follow other paths?"
"The ancient warriors have no martial arts inheritance at all, and they don't know what Xuanmen is and what You Mansion is. But they are still able to fight against the strong men of the heavenly level and slaughter one after another of the gods from the heavens. Do you think that they are not following the martial arts? "
The Marquis' expression changed and he couldn't help but said: "You mean... ancient martial arts? Have you mastered ancient martial arts?"
"I can only tell you that His Highness Prince Yan has not penetrated the Xuanmen, but she has recovered a strength comparable to the Immortal Realm."
Lu Li said calmly: "The so-called Xuanmen Youfu is just a habit of Zhenwu domain warriors. It has been passed down from generation to generation for more than ten thousand years. Habits are a very scary thing. I can understand what you are thinking. But you also have to know that if you abandon your habits... there may not be only a dead end in front of you."
Having said this, Lu Li raised his finger and released rich golden energy, "I wonder if this benefit could impress the Marquis?"
The Marquis stared intently at the golden energy at Lu Li's fingertips, and his breathing gradually began to become rapid.
To say that he doesn't care is simply a lie.
For a warrior, having once set foot on the top and seen the scenery there, and then suddenly fell to the bottom of the mountain, the feeling of disparity can almost drive people crazy.
Although the Marquis is wily and sophisticated, he can act like he doesn't care, but when someone puts hope in front of him, even he can't help but lose his composure.
However, the Marquis calmed down quickly, remained silent for a while, and said in a low voice: "How about you trade such precious things for the secrets I know?"
"Is it worth it?"
"Value is judged based on supply and demand. You provide me with what I want, and I provide you with what you want. This is the exchange of interests."
Lu Li smiled and said, "As for whether it's worth it or not, that's up to everyone to make their own judgment."
"But I'm going to say something ugly first. I can't completely hand over this inheritance to you. However, as long as you tell me the information that I think is valuable, I can first connect your meridians, warm up your Dantian, and at least... It can save your life.”
Lu Li changed the subject and said slowly: "Master Marquis, you should know that everything in this world is vain, and only your life is yours. You have lived for hundreds of years, and you should have figured this out long ago. , are you going to give up hope of living today and die for a secret?"
After listening to Lu Li's words, the Marquis fell silent again, his eyes narrowed into a slit, as if he was considering Lu Li's words.
But he knew that Lu Li was right.
Everything in this world is empty.
Only life is your own.
If his death was inevitable, so be it.
But Lu Li now brought the hope of survival in front of him.
If you can avoid death, no one can face death calmly.
The older the antique, the more so.
After living for a long time, there will always be a fear of death. Survival is natural and instinctive. Even the Marquis cannot fight against this instinct.
I don’t know how much time passed, but the Marquis finally let out a long sigh and said slowly: "You win."
"Perhaps I have lived too long and no longer have the bloody courage I had when I was young. Or maybe what you said does make sense..."
The Marquis opened his eyes, with a complicated look in his eyes: "It is really not worth dying for them."
Lu Li's heart moved, and the golden energy at his fingertips directly entered the Hou Ye's body and merged with the previous golden energy. He smiled lightly and said: "This is considered a deposit. As long as you tell me what I want to hear, I will first pay for it." You save your life.”
"Your current condition is extremely dangerous and you may die at any time. If you don't receive treatment as soon as possible, you may only survive for a few days at most."
When the Marquis heard this, he did not doubt Lu Li's words.
After all, he is also a master-level expert and was once a top master. Of course, he understands his own situation very well.
In his current condition, no matter how much the Yan Palace paid, it would only be able to extend his life for a few months at most. If Lu Li hadn't taken action, he would have died in a few months.
"He is the first ancestor of the Hou family."
Mr. Hou groaned and said the first name: "The person who originally asked me to collect ancient secrets and search for ancient ruins... was the first ancestor of the Hou family, Hou Chun."
"The first ancestor of the Hou family..."
Lu Li narrowed his eyes, "Is he another thousand-year-old master?"
The Marquis said calmly: "He has probably existed for more than a thousand years. In the entire Hou family, except for me, no one knows that he is still alive. Everyone thinks that he died in the battle eight hundred years ago." ”
