The royal lineage has stood firm for countless years, superior to other branches. The royal lineage will never interfere with the rise and fall of other branches, unless the practitioners take the initiative to provoke the royal lineage.
"Not from the royal family? Then who has this ability?" Long Zhen frowned.
Among the branches that entered the Martial Tomb, it was not only the royal family that possessed the peak Martial Emperor, but the other branches had no more than one peak Martial Emperor. Even if a branch with a peak Martial Emperor helped them, their chances of keeping Yang Qi were still slim.
Long Qian's eyes condensed, and he slowly uttered three words, "King of Zhenbei!"
King of Zhenbei
Long Zhen was stunned. The lineage of King Zhenbei did have a cultivator at the peak of Martial Emperor level, but even if King Zhenbei helped them, they would probably not be able to keep Long Qi. He could think of this, so it was impossible for Long Qian not to think of it.
Long Qian looked at the stunned Long Zhen and said calmly, "What is Long Qi's most powerful ability?"
"Soul means!" Long Zhen said in a deep voice.
Long Qian nodded, then chuckled and said, "What if his soul method is useless?"
"Soul means are useless?" Long Zhen was slightly stunned. If Long Qi's soul means were ineffective, Long Qi's strength would at most be close to the late stage of the Nine-Star Martial Arts Realm. Even if the strong men from the two branches of Dongyang Marquis and Pingnan Marquis joined forces, there would be a great chance that Long Qi would be kept.
"Is there a cultivator in the lineage of King Zhenbei who is good at the soul?" Long Zhen asked subconsciously.
"No."
Long Qian shook his head slightly. The Long family practiced with the power of their bloodline, so their practice outside of bloodline power was relatively poor. Although the Zhenbei King's lineage was one of the best among the kings, there was no practitioner who was good at the soul among the practitioners who entered the Wu Tomb this time.
Hearing this, Long Zhen looked at Long Qian in confusion, "This..."
Without a cultivator who is good at the soul, how can he resist Yang Qi's soul methods? If he is unable to resist Yang Qi's soul methods, even a cultivator at the peak of the Martial Emperor level will have his strength greatly reduced.
"If you can't rely on yourself, you can use the treasure that can resist soul attacks!" Long Qian said with a smile.
With the help of external objects
As soon as these words were spoken, Long Zhen's expression changed. He had never thought about this.
The reason why Long Zhen hadn't thought about this was very simple, because the monsters in the Martial Tomb were not good at soul attacks, and the practitioners in the Martial Tomb generally wouldn't kill each other. Therefore, practitioners at the level of Nine-Star Martial Emperors hardly had to worry about encountering soul-level threats in the Martial Tomb. Who would be okay with bringing treasures that could defend against soul attacks into the Martial Tomb
Besides, treasures that can defend against soul attacks at the nine-star Martial Emperor level, or even have better effects, are priceless. Even a cultivator at the Martial Emperor level may not possess it, and the possibility of a cultivator at the Martial Emperor level possessing it is even lower.
It was precisely because of these reasons that Long Zhen had never thought that someone would enter the Martial Tomb with a treasure that could defend against soul attacks of at least the peak Martial Emperor level!
“Long Meng from the lineage of King Zhenbei is the direct descendant of a Martial Emperor. I have sparred with him before and know that he possesses a treasure that can defend against soul attacks from levels below the Martial Emperor. If he joins us, it will be easy for him to deal with Long Qi.” Long Qian said with a slight smile.
Hearing this, Long Zhen frowned slightly and asked, "Will Long Meng be willing to join us?"
Long Meng himself holds a high status in the lineage of King Zhenbei, and is also the leader of the lineage of King Zhenbei who entered the Martial Tomb this time. Would such a practitioner be willing to help them deal with Long Qi
"I don't know either." Long Qian shook his head slightly, then his eyes focused and he said in a deep voice, "But with such an opportunity, we have to try it. Although it will be easier to kill Long Qi after leaving the Wu Tomb, the chances will be much less."
Hearing this, Long Zhen couldn't help but nodded. In the outside world without any restrictions on external objects, it would not be difficult for them to kill Long Qi, but the prerequisite was that they had to find Yang Qi. If they couldn't find him, it would be impossible to kill Yang Qi.
Compared to the vast endless universe, it is much easier to find someone in the Martial Tomb. If there is a chance to kill Long Qi in the Martial Tomb, it would undoubtedly be the best.
A gleam of brilliance flashed in Long Gan's eyes, and he slowly said, "Besides, Yang Qi has passed the eighth floor of the Demon Dragon Palace. He has a lot of treasures on him. I believe Long Meng will be interested."
It's not that there haven't been cases of people killing each other for treasures in Wu's Tomb, it's just that they are relatively less common. Yang Qi is carrying a treasure now, and Long Qian believes that even a cultivator like Long Meng would probably be interested in it.
…
Yang Qi had no idea of Long Gan and the others' plans. At this moment, he was hunting monsters all the way towards the place where he had entered the Wu Tomb.
Whoosh~
The sharp sword light flashed across and directly pierced through the monster's body, and then the monster's life breath completely dissipated.
Whoosh~
As the monster died, a figure flew over and appeared in front of the monster. This person was Yang Qi.
Looking at the dead monster, Yang Qi couldn't help but shake his head slightly and said, "It's a pity that the monsters around here are only at the mid-level Martial Emperor level."
The monsters nearby were not very strong, so Yang Qi’s gains were not that great. Although he could choose to fight his way into the Blood Demon Sea, the possibility of exposing his identity would be much greater.
Um
Just when Yang Qi was about to collect the monster's blood, his face suddenly frowned. He sensed that several powerful auras were approaching rapidly.
"Long Qian and Long Zhen?"
Sensing the slightly familiar breath, Yang Qi raised his eyebrows. Long Gan and his group came here, and they were all practitioners at the Nine-Star Martial Emperor level. It was obvious that they came for him.
Yang Qi's eyes fixed, a smile appeared on his face, and he muttered to himself, "Interesting, is Long Gan planning to attack me?"
Although he had never fought with Long Gan, Long Gan had seen his strength when they went to the Demon Dragon's Eye before. The fact that he still dared to kill him was that either Long Gan was stupid or he had something to rely on.
"I want to see what you can rely on." Yang Qi said secretly in his heart.
Whoosh~ Whoosh~
Just as Yang Qi was thinking, a series of rapid sounds of breaking through the air came from not far away, followed by dozens of figures appearing in front of him.
"Long Qi!" Long Qian looked at Long Qi in front of him, and the murderous intent in his body was released without any concealment.
Yang Qi seemed unaware of Long Gan's murderous intent, and said calmly, "You guys want to kill me?"
It’s not that Yang Qi is arrogant. Even the strength he had shown in front of everyone before was not something that Long Gan, Long Zhen and others could deal with.
"If you sense us, you will evacuate immediately. Perhaps we really can't do anything to you. But I know that you will never escape, so you will definitely die today." Long Gan said with a sneer.
Among the practitioners who came this time, there was no peak Martial Emperor. The reason for this was that Long Qian was worried that the appearance of a peak Martial Emperor might directly scare Yang Qi away. If it were just them, Yang Qi would definitely not run away at the first opportunity. As long as Yang Qi did not run away, they could keep him. (To be continued)
