According to Xuanwu, after the four divine beasts died, they thought their lives had ended. However, who would have thought that five gods were born in the ancient battlefield.
Because the five gods coveted the inheritance of the four divine beasts, they wanted to refine their bodies, but unexpectedly, by chance, they awakened some of their memories from their previous lives.
A fierce battle between dragons and tigers begins.
Later, because the combat power of the four divine beasts was too strong and the five great gods were newly promoted gods, they were really helpless. So they took great efforts to forcibly split their bodies and sealed them in different places.
The purpose of the five gods doing this is to let the skeletons and memories of the four divine beasts gradually decay and disappear under the erosion of the source of all evil.
Xuanwu also admitted that after a long time, because he was sealed in the first area, far away from the source of all evil, only most of his memories disappeared. Qinglong, Suzaku, Baihu, and his other skeletons were sealed deep in the Western Regions, and their memories were basically gone, turning into ruthless and deadly gods of death.
Therefore, if Wutan takes on this task, he will encounter endless dangers along the way, and may even be killed by the skeletons of several divine beasts.
"It turns out to be sealed." Wu Tian suddenly realized.
Then, his eyes began to flicker. If it was just because of the seal, it would be easy to deal with. With his current bloodline power, it should not be difficult to break the seal and rescue Xuanwu.
After all, we must always be on guard against others. Who knows if the Xuanwu of today is still the same Xuanwu of the past
What if I save him with good intentions, but he repays me with evil in the end, wouldn't that be a waste of time
However, for the inheritance of the four sacred beasts, he must go on this trip, so he has to make comprehensive considerations.
There is no doubt that there will be many dangers along the way. If you can carry the black tortoise shell with you, it will not only be of great help at critical moments, but also greatly increase the chances of awakening the skeletons of those mythical beasts that have lost themselves.
It is even possible that he has been awakened by Xuanwu before the battle even started.
This will save a lot of trouble.
Wu Tian asked: "Senior, I have a way to save you, but how can you guarantee that you will not hurt me?"
"Save me from trouble? Oh! I remember that the people of your Destroying Heaven War Body clan have the blood power to break the seal, but it seems that it requires the second stage. Hey! Could it be that your blood power has already reached the second stage?" Xuanwu asked in surprise.
Wu Tian didn't say anything, but proved it with facts.
When Xuanwu saw Wutan cut his finger and a drop of dark purple blood spilled out, his huge shell trembled violently and shrank rapidly until it was as big as a dustpan.
Then, he floated in front of Wutan, his spiritual consciousness covering the blood. From the fluctuating emotions, Wutan could clearly sense many things, such as excitement, desire and so on.
Wu Tian remained calm, but secretly took precautions.
The four legendary beasts are kind and benevolent, and will definitely not take things by force.
In other words, if Xuanwu would try to snatch the blood now, it would not be consistent with the legend, and no matter what he said, he would not be able to help him escape.
In fact, Wutan was just testing Xuanwu's character to see if he was really assimilated by the evil spirit as he said.
"How old are you? Your bloodline power has already reached the late second stage. It's amazing, really amazing." After a long while, Xuanwu was amazed and showed no signs of snatching. Wu Tian also secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked in confusion: "Senior, how should I unlock your seal?"
"Just drop it on my body."
Wutan did not hesitate. Since it had been confirmed, there was no need to drag it out. In the blink of an eye, the drop of blood that had already overflowed broke through the air and fell on the turtle shell with a drip.
"boom!"
Immediately, a blood-red light curtain appeared on the turtle shell. The dark purple blood tore a hole in the light curtain like a sharp blade. A terrifying breath suddenly roared out from the hole!
His expression suddenly changed and Wutan decisively retreated.
"Crash!"
Xuanwu roared loudly, his voice was like a bell, deafening!
Immediately afterwards, accompanied by a pop sound, the blood-red light curtain collapsed, and the light rain evaporated and drifted between the sky and the earth. An ochre-colored turtle shell also appeared in Wutan's sight, and a momentum even more powerful than before swept across the heavens and the earth like a flood and a beast!
As a last resort, Wu Tian retreated violently again, landing thousands of miles away. He looked at the tortoise shell in the air, his eyes shining, and muttered: "So this is his true strength!"
Xuanwu's current state is completely different from when he was sealed before!
The aura it exuded had clearly surpassed the Heavenly Man Stage, which was enough to show that its current combat power was at least at the level of the Nine Decaying Stage!
Wu Tian was both excited and scared!
Fortunately, I had secretly tested it before. If Xuanwu was really assimilated by the evil energy and was not a kind person, this strength alone would be enough to make him despair!
"Congratulations on escaping from trouble, senior." Wutan bowed and sent congratulations from a distance.
"Little guy, this is all thanks to you." As soon as the words fell, Xuanwu's body shook, and in an instant, it appeared in front of Wu Tian and said with a smile: "Tell me! If there is anything you want, as long as it is within my ability, I will try my best to satisfy you."
Wu Tian smiled faintly and said, "Is there anything that can compare to the inheritance of the seniors?"
"You are quite smart, come on, I will take you to the depths of the Western Regions. With my current combat power, no one can stop me unless the four great gods are reborn."
"Then I will be disrespectful to refuse." Wu Tian smiled, jumped up, sat cross-legged on the tortoise shell of Xuanwu, and asked: "Senior, how strong is your current combat power?"
Xuanwu turned into a stream of light and rushed towards the depths while laughing, "It's almost the first calamity of the Nine Calamities. But my tortoise shell is a real divine object. Even if it is a pseudo-god in your mouth, it will take three or four times to restore it to its peak state and leave a crack."
After a pause, Xuanwu continued, "Moreover, every time I merge with another part of my body, my strength will become stronger. When my entire body is complete, I will be able to recover to my peak state, and it will be more than enough to reach the realm of a pseudo-god."
"So strong!" Wutan was shocked.
Xuanwu sighed, "What's the use of being strong? Under the ruthless Heavenly Dao, even the thousands of gods are just small characters like ants. They will be reduced to ashes in a moment. If you want to truly gain eternal life, you have to master reincarnation and transcend Heavenly Dao. These words are simple to say, but from ancient times to the present, who can really do it?"
"Reincarnation, Heaven's Way..."
Wu Tian muttered to himself. He caught a lot of important information from this sentence. However, just when he was about to ask, Xuanwu seemed to have known his thoughts and said, "There are some things you should not ask. Even if you ask, I will not tell you. When you enter the Saint Realm with your own ability, your people will naturally tell you everything."
"Is it like this again?" Wu Tian frowned, feeling extremely irritated, and asked unwillingly: "Can't we even explain the cause of the destruction in ancient times?"
“To be honest, I don’t know the reason for the destruction in ancient times. I only know that the world was in turmoil that day. A blood moon and a blood sun rose from the horizon at the same time. Countless stars seemed to be stained with blood and lost their former glory. The air was filled with death and blood, filling the entire world.
Just when we were confused, mysterious strong men and terrifying beasts fell from the sky! As soon as they appeared, they slaughtered all living things indiscriminately.
They are ruthless and cold-blooded. They are so powerful that even our four divine beasts feel despair and helplessness, without even the slightest ability to fight back!
I clearly remember that at that time, Azure Dragon, Vermillion Bird, White Tiger and I each found an opponent, but we were all severely injured and almost died. In the end, we found out that our opponent was the weakest among all the aliens!"
When Xuanwu said these words, his voice was trembling with an unrelieved fear. This shows how deep a shadow the battle that year had left on him.
Not to mention Wutan, the horror in his heart was beyond words!
Even the four guardian gods of ancient times were seriously injured by one move. Who are these aliens and why are their fighting powers so terrifying
"What happened next?" Wu Tian asked.
"Later, the Tongtian Bridge and other five ancient divine objects, together with a member of the Mie Tian War Clan, descended on the battlefield and fought with those mysterious strong men. After seeing their methods, I knew what unparalleled combat power was. Compared with them, we are really no different from ants. At that time, Qinglong and I also asked them for advice, who exactly is the mysterious strong man? Why did he want to massacre all living things in the world? But that Mie Tian War Body, that is, your clansman, told us that there are some things we are not qualified to know." Xuanwu said bitterly.
"call!"
After hearing this, Wutan pondered for a while and finally let out a long sigh.
Although the real reason for the destruction in ancient times has not been figured out, obtaining this information has finally solved some of the doubts in my heart.
Suddenly, Wu Tian asked hurriedly: "Senior, do you still remember what my people look like?"
Xuanwu said: "Remember one thing, he is a man, his methods are more terrifying than Tongtian Bridge and other great gods, most of the mysterious strong men and fierce beasts basically died in his hands. Oh, if you change to black hair, you look very similar to him."
"It's him again." Wu Tian muttered.
"What? Do you know him?" Xuanwu asked in surprise.
"How could I not know him? He saved me several times when my life was in danger." Wutan pursed his lips. Although this man had saved him several times, he just couldn't feel the slightest bit of awe or gratitude towards him.
Xuanwu was shocked and said: "It's incredible that he is still alive. It seems that his strength has reached a truly extraordinary level."
Wu Tian shook his head and said calmly: "Let's not talk about him, let's talk about you, Senior! Is there no other way for you to be reborn?"
