Fei Xing is unable to crack the Wusheng Gate, and has no way to deal with the decline of his own spiritual power. He tells Lu Bei that the person who tied the bell must be the one to untie it, and that if he wants to restore his understanding to its original state, he has to find Ji Han.
Listening to your words is like listening to a conversation.
Lu Bei said he had learned his lesson, but to be fair, he didn't take his decline in understanding too seriously.
Because there is no reason, I feel justified.
Looking at the disappearing city gate, the space is isolated and it is easy to get in but difficult to get out. He doesn't want to stay with five beauties, big and small, living a life without seeing the sun, so he can only enter the hall to find out what's going on, catch Ji Han and seize the Wusheng Gate.
They did what they said and walked towards the main hall.
This time Xiang Muqing did not explore the way anymore. With his master here and someone backing him up, he looked at Lu Bei coldly and no longer called him master.
Lu Bei snorted coldly, raised his fist suddenly, and scratched his head.
Xiang Muqing was hiding behind Feixing like a frightened bird. Seeing this, he was so angry that his teeth were itching.
Looking at Lu Bei following Bai Jin and Zhu Xiushi on both sides, he felt envious and jealous, but although he had the broad mind, he was not very brave. Otherwise, he would have definitely said something like "I should ride on this car cover" from a pornographic book.
The person who explored the way became Ji Jie.
Facing everyone's attitude towards the traitor, she had no way to defend herself. The secret realm was full of strange things, as if everything was under Ji Han's control. As the princess of the Ji family, and the guide appointed by Ji Han for Lu Bei, she was justified at this moment.
It is useless to refute. After all, whether Ji Han was really controlled by someone and lost his original sanity, and everything was beyond his control, still remains a question.
Ji Jie carefully explored the way ahead, touching the ground silently. She walked in the dark hall, her spiritual perception was completely useless, and her sight and hearing senses were severely weakened. If she hadn't taken three steps and looked back, she wouldn't have been able to confirm the existence of Lu Bei and others.
"Don't panic, Princess. We'll protect you. You'll be fine."
Lu Bei was ten steps away, and he kindly tried to comfort the frightened Ji Jie: "Once your ancestor jumps out, we will throw magic weapons to ensure that he can't touch you at all."
Yes, you guys moved everything.
Ji Jie laughed silently, her face full of joy.
But you have to say, after Lu Bei's persuasion, my restless mind did calm down a lot.
Feixing looked into the distance at the dark end of the hall. There, there was a faint exudation of an extremely powerful aura. Even the tip of the iceberg made her heart tremble. Thinking of the demonic text "Zhenhai Zhatian", she deeply believed that there was a great demon who had never appeared in the world living here.
After walking for a while, Lu Bei and the others also sensed this momentum. Compared to others, he also felt a different momentum. It could be the will of a knife or the will of a sword. Sometimes the will was restrained, and sometimes it was sharp, as if it was challenging his immortal sword will.
Buzz buzz buzz—
A buzzing sound was transmitted through the area, and everyone immediately deployed a defensive formation. Unexpectedly, the change was not a sneak attack by the enemy, but simply the white jade floor tiles burst into light, illuminating the space of the hall.
The ground was white, the sky was dark and deep, the space above and below was thousands of feet apart, front, back, left and right were boundless, stretching straight forward with no end in sight, more than thousands of feet.
"Sumeru Formation!"
Fei Xing read out the name of the formation, frowned and looked towards the end of the hall, only to see two figures walking out slowly. The powerful enemy was quite confident in his own strength and showed up openly.
The two people who came were one tall and one short, one young and one old.
There was no need for the old man to say much. It was Ji Han. At this moment, he had lost an arm, half of his head was cut off, and his only eye was dim and lifeless. How miserable he was!
The young man had a stern face, and judging from his appearance, he was about 27 or 28 years old, with slanting eyebrows and cold eyes that were filled with murderous intent. He also had an indescribable air, as if he was born in a high position and habitually looked down upon the common people with his nose.
"Wish it's cloudy?"
Fei Xing was surprised and said, "Who did I think you were? It turned out to be Old Monster Yintian. You are still alive... This is impolite, please don't blame me."
"Liluan Palace, Han Miaojun."
Zhu Yintian revealed Fei Xing's pseudonym and said coldly to Lu Bei and the others, "This is a forbidden place that has been here for thousands of years. I am under the command of Heaven to guard it. If you follow Ji Han's example and offer half of your soul to me as your master, you can continue to be free in the future. Otherwise, your souls will be scattered and all your hard work for a hundred years will be in vain."
"Who is this person? He looks so arrogant."
A powerful enemy showed up, and Lu Bei didn't dare to be arrogant, let alone handle so many people. According to the principle that if the sky falls, there are seniors to hold it up, he silently led Bai Jin to stand behind Feixing, no, behind Han Miaojun.
"This person was originally a cultivator from Hankong Valley, Qi Yan..."
Han Miaojun silently took a step back, keeping her level with Lu Beiping, and in front of Zhu Yintian, she talked about the once famous Hankong Valley.
In the early years, when Qi and Yan were just established, the Ji family was the bully. No one could control the territory. They had no status as the ruler of a country, and their situation was even worse than that of the Zhu family in Wu Zhou.
The twelve states of the Wu Zhou Dynasty were divided into the east, south, west and north, with a total of eighty-four counties. Under each county, there were varying numbers of county towns, with each level suppressing the previous one. The overall system was reasonable.
Qi and Yan are not that complicated. There are no counties or prefectures, only cities of varying sizes. Nandou City's Gu Yunyan, Shuangxing City's Great Elder Wen Xiuyi, and all the major cities in Qi and Yan are occupied by Xiuxian families or mountain gates. They all obey orders but not announcements, and recognize that the Ji family is the royal orthodoxy, but that's all.
Afterwards, after hundreds of years of mediation, the Ji family established the Xiantian Mansion, which bundled interests in a decentralized manner and strengthened their voice in Qi and Yan.
The Xiantian Mansion grew like a snowball. Various families or mountain gates joined the Xiantian Mansion for the sake of interests, while others did not dare to go against the trend.
The forest is big, and there are all kinds of birds, including soft ones and hard ones.
Both Liluan Palace and Hankong Valley are tough, the difference is that the monks of Liluan Palace act according to their own will and live quite freely and easily, and as long as their excitement points are touched, they will become soft after a short while.
The Ji family promised benefits and allowed the Liluan Palace to recruit female disciples with outstanding qualifications from all over Qi and Yan. They used a beauty trick to win over the arrogant Ji Lao of the Liluan Palace.
Hankong Valley was a different case. It refused to give in, no matter how many benefits Xiantian Mansion offered it or how much threats or intimidation it inflicted, it was determined not to go along with the corrupt crowd.
Not only did he refuse to join Xiantian Mansion, he also set up a new alliance, entangled seven or eight small cities, and built his own alliance similar to Xiantian Mansion, causing trouble for the Ji family all the time.
The atmosphere has become so tense that it will be hard to end without a fight to the death.
As a result, Xiantian Mansion had a large number of people and power, and under the leadership of the Ji family, they easily defeated Hankong Valley. Everyone got some benefits, and the inheritance of Hankong Valley was divided up cleanly.
As a cultivator in the Tribulation Crossing Stage, Zhu Yintian was a pillar of the Hankong Valley before it was destroyed, and he loved the valley deeply.
If we dig deeper into the reason, we will find that it is because he has a father who is the Valley Master. A hundred years later, he will be the new Valley Master.
Therefore, Qi Yanji's family, Xiantian Mansion and Zhu Yintian had a double hatred of being exterminated, one was the mountain gate, and the other was the family gate.
"In the battle where Hankong Valley was destroyed, the old monster Yintian was defeated and fled. No one knows where he went. This palace master thought he was dead, or he went to another country instead of Qi Yan. I didn't expect that he had been hiding here."
Han Miaojun read the narration and added some settings for Lu Bei. Then she looked at Zhu Yintian and said, "How strange! Your biological father and mother were killed by the Ji family. Since you have controlled Ji Han, why don't you seek revenge on the Ji family?"
"It's none of your business."
Zhu Yintian spoke coldly. Of course he wanted revenge. During the years when he escaped from Qi Yan, he wanted to grind the entire Ji family into ashes, and also kill all the Qi Yan monks who participated in that battle.
But no, he is a gravekeeper and must abide by the gravekeeper's rules. Unless it involves the secret realm, he cannot get into trouble with outside monks.
Besides, he still has an opportunity, so there is no rush for revenge.
Speaking of which, Zhu Yintian is the typical unlucky guy among the lucky ones.
He became famous at a young age and had outstanding aptitude for spiritual practice. His life seemed to be going smoothly and he only needed to outlive his father so that he could inherit the family business. However, when his father died, all his property was taken away by robbers.
It was useless to report to the authorities, as the robber who had beaten his old father to death and robbed his property was the highest-ranking official in Qi Yan.
After he left Qi and Yan, he went around robbing tombs, looking for a technique that could change his fate and avenge the Ji family's blood feud.
After wasting several years in Dengtianmen, he was found by the Tomb Keeper Organization, who provided him with martial arts techniques and magic weapons, and also helped him survive two thunder tribulations in succession, completing a triple jump in realm and strength.
Two hundred years ago, he was teleported here and was responsible for exploring the entire secret realm.
According to the rules of the gravekeeper, explore the depth of the secret realm, and if you encounter an opportunity, you should deal with it according to the situation. If you can use it yourself, use it yourself. If you don’t need it, move it away. If you can’t move it away, wait for the child of destiny to come and beat him to death.
I wish you a smooth exploration of the secret realm on a cloudy day. There will be great opportunities. You can decide to use them on yourself depending on the circumstances.
The sad thing is that he spent two hundred years but still didn't wait for the opportunity to bear fruit.
One hundred years ago, the secret realm appeared without any warning. He tried his best to hide the existence of the secret realm, but still attracted Ji Han.
The two fought a fierce battle, mainly because the secret realm suddenly appeared. Ji Han did not expect that there were people hiding inside. He thought he was the first to enter the secret realm. At the moment he was happy to get the God-given opportunity, he was secretly attacked by Zhu Yintian and became a prisoner.
Ji Han returned to the Ji family and never mentioned the secret realm, only talking about useless things.
One hundred years later, the Ji family offered the secret realm as compensation for their defeat. Ji Han entered the secret realm again and explained the situation to Zhu Yintian.
After that, Lu Bei and others arrived. Zhu Yintian didn't want to show up, so he sent Ji Han to deal with them. Ji Han lost an arm, half of his head, his golden corpse was broken, and his strength was greatly weakened.
There was no other way, Zhu Yintian had to come forward himself.
Out of respect for his own strength and also because he felt that Ji Han was useless, Zhu Yintian set his sights on Lu Bei and Han Miaojun, wanting to recruit them to replace Ji Han's position as his lackey.
Let’s get back to the topic.
Han Miaojun looked at the empty white space behind Zhu Yintian and became more and more curious about the opportunities hidden in the secret realm. What kind of treasure could it be that made Zhu Yintian refuse to take a step forward and stay here without avenging his family's annihilation
"Master Lu, how about you and I split the harvest here in half?"
"this… "
Lu Bei scratched his head and pointed at Zhu Xiushi beside him and said, "And there is also the Zhu family of Wu Zhou!"
"I lent a helping hand to Sect Master Lu and kidnapped this beauty to live in Liluan Palace for hundreds of years. No one knew she was still alive."
"not good."
"I lent a helping hand to Sect Master Lu and kidnapped this beauty to live in the Tianjian Sect for hundreds of years. No one knew she was still alive."
"make a deal!"
