"Xu Chu."
When the army reached the Taihang Mountains, Liu Ye suddenly called Xu Chu.
"What are your orders, my lord?"
Xu Chu rode a white tiger and came close, cupping his hands.
"I have something to go to the Taihang Mountains. You can lead the army and move on."
Considering that Zhang Jiao might have tampered with the dragon veins, Liu Ye decided to check the situation of the dragon veins in Taihang Mountain.
Although Longxinyan was suppressing it, who knows if Zhang Jiao has any means to destroy Longxinyan, so it would be safer to take a look.
"This... general takes command!"
To be honest, at this age, it was the first time for him to lead so many troops, and Xu Chu was really stressed.
hold head high! !
After explaining this, Liu Ye did not stop, riding the dragonborn straight into the sky, and disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.
When Liu Ye came to the pool again, he immediately noticed something was wrong.
The originally clear pool water actually had wisps of black air rising up, which looked quite strange.
"This is...the calamity of all living beings!"
This black aura is the same as the calamity aura emitted by the eight golden-armored giants, with a chill that directly hits the soul.
Seeing this situation, Liu Ye couldn't help but change his expression, and asked the Dragonborn to guard the entrance, Liu Ye jumped into the pool.
As for those calamity qi, the moment they touched Liu Ye, they turned into nourishment for the immortal body without causing any impact.
Ho ho ho! !
Just less than a kilometer deep, more than a dozen dragon crocodiles surrounded them.
These dragon crocodiles are also surrounded by calamity, which adds a bit of ferocity to the already violent dragon crocodiles. The two beast pupils are shining with a strange red light, which looks quite scary.
"Is this the tribulation that has eroded the mind?"
Liu Ye frowned.
He was not worried about these dozen dragon crocodiles.
In his eyes, these things are no different from ants.
But don't forget, this pool is connected to an underground river.
If these calamity qi flowed into the major water veins along the underground rivers, the consequences would be simply unimaginable.
"Hopefully it's not a serious problem."
After casually knocking these dragon crocodiles unconscious and taking them into their territory, Liu Ye couldn't help but speed up his dive.
As Liu Ye gradually went deeper, the calamity around him became more and more intense, and the beasts he encountered became more and more ferocious and terrifying.
Along the way, Liu Ye collected an unknown number of ferocious beasts. It was conservatively estimated to have exceeded a hundred, including many spiritual beasts that had activated their spiritual intelligence.
These spiritual beasts were also eroded by the tribulation energy and had no intelligence at all.
They started fighting as soon as they met, completely losing the peace and tranquility before.
An hour later, Liu Ye finally arrived at the magma lake where Dragon Heart Rock was located.
Dragon Heart Rock is still there, but the originally peaceful magma lake has changed.
Below the lake, a black shadow could be vaguely seen swimming, and from time to time a ball of hot magma would explode.
For a moment, Liu Ye felt as if he had arrived in hell.
"Where did this black shadow come from?"
The last time he came here, Liu Ye found no signs of life in the magma lake.
Besides, how terrifying would it be for a creature to survive in magma?
Wow!
Suddenly, a large ball of lava rose into the sky in the distance.
When the magma fell, Liu Ye finally saw the true face of that thing.
It was a giant red python that was more than thirty meters long, with a single horn on its head, as if it was about to turn into a dragon.
The Eye of Truth was opened, and Liu Ye got information about this giant python.

"Hiss~ mythical beast?!"
Liu Ye had previously wondered why there was no guardian beast in such a vital place as the dragon vein.
Now it seems that it's not that there was none, but that the last time I came here, this guy didn't know where he was hiding and broke through secretly.
After all, judging from its attributes, this giant lava python has obviously just broken through to the realm of the mythical beast not long ago.
"Human, this is not the place you should be!"
Although Liu Ye was a little surprised to hear that the giant python in front of him was actually speaking human words, it was quite normal if he thought about it carefully.
Beings who can become mythical beasts have intelligence that is no different from that of ordinary people. Even some special mythical beasts have wisdom comparable to that of ancient saints.
For example, the mythical beast Bai Ze was rumored to be a teacher to the ancient human emperor, and his wisdom was already divine.
"I've met Your Excellency the Guardian Beast. I'm here now because I just want to find out what happened to the dragon's veins."
Facing the mythical beast that guarded the dragon veins of the Han Dynasty, Liu Ye showed full respect.
However, the giant python didn't say anything. It just stared at Liu Ye with a pair of animal eyes, as if it was about to fight if he disagreed with him.
Liu Ye was a little helpless when he saw this. This guy obviously didn't like the human race.
It is estimated that if he were not afraid of his own strength, he would have taken action long ago.
"Wait a minute, since it is the guardian beast of the Han Dragon Vein, the dragon energy should have an effect on it."
As soon as he thought this, a scroll of imperial edict appeared in Liu Ye's hand, surrounded by dragon energy.
Although it was very weak, the aura was undeniable.
"I have been ordered to come here to check the dragon's veins. I hope it will be convenient for you."
Liu Ye is simply using the tiger skin as a banner.
He didn't believe that the giant python in front of him could read the content of the imperial edict?
However, in the face of the imperial edict containing dragon energy, the lava python did not show any expression, and even showed a trace of disdain in his eyes.
“Boy, if you take the Emperor’s decree, this beast may obey it.
How dare a mere false emperor command this beast? "
As the lava python spoke, the entire magma lake began to shake, as if it was accumulating a big move.
Ugh, that was sloppy.
Liu Ye also didn't expect that the so-called dragon-veined guardian beast would not listen to the emperor's orders at all. They believed in the ancient human emperor.
This is like using the sword of the previous dynasty to kill the ministers of the current dynasty.
It's not very harmful, but it's extremely insulting. It's no wonder the other party wants to take action.
"Wait!"
Although Liu Ye was not innocent in a real fight, there was no enmity between the two. Strictly speaking, he and the python had the same goal, which was to protect the dragon's veins.
In this case, why bother to go to war?
Besides, Longxinyan is right next to it. If it is destroyed in the aftermath of the battle, who can I ask to reason with?
"Human beings, one last question, should we retreat or not?"
As a fire attribute beast, the lava python didn't seem to have much patience to chat with Liu Ye, and looked ready to go.
"Since you obeyed the Emperor, what should you do now that the Emperor is in front of you?"
After saying that, Liu Ye no longer restrained himself, and his momentum exploded.
It is said that he has the destiny of a human emperor. If this is the case, let's give it a try.
Thinking that the lava python is a mythical beast, you should be able to tell something about it.
"Boy, what are you talking about..."
The lava python was about to say something, but stopped abruptly the next second.
A pair of beast pupils shrank hard, showing how unpeaceful it felt at this moment.
"Human...His Majesty the Human Emperor?"
The lava python's tone was trembling, as if he had seen something incredible.
"Since you have seen the Human Emperor, why don't you worship him!"
Liu Ye decided to carry out the pretense to the end.
"The little beast paid homage to the Human Emperor. I didn't know that the Human Emperor was in person. I offended him a lot. Please forgive me for your sins."
At this moment, the lava python lowered its proud head, and its attitude made a 180-degree turn.
Human Emperor is a title, and it is also a supreme status.
As a divine beast, it can feel an aura of supreme dignity and balance with the balance from Liu Ye.
This is the momentum that only the Human Emperor can possess, and it cannot be faked at all.
Liu Ye also didn't expect that the title of Human Emperor would be so easy to use, that even the majestic beasts would bow down to him.
As expected, he is worthy of being said to be on an equal footing with the way of heaven. This is so impressive.
"Ignorance is not a crime. All you need to do is tell me what happened to Dragon Vein."
Liu Ye also gave up as soon as he saw what was good, and did not deliberately stage any more drama. He first solved the problem of dragon veins and then talked about it.
However, after hearing this, the lava python shook his head: "Well, the little beast doesn't know what happened.
The little beast also felt a strange movement in the dragon's veins, and then woke up from the retreat.
But the problem probably lies on the Dragon Heart Rock. From there, the little beast felt a kind of calamity of heaven and earth.
This kind of power cannot be dispelled even by the Dragon Heart Rock. Once the Dragon Heart Rock is completely eroded, it will no longer be able to suppress the dragon veins. "
The lava python told everything he knew about the situation, not daring to hide anything.
"So, as long as this calamity is resolved, the dragon's veins can return to normal?"
Liu Ye asked tentatively.
"That's true. It's just that the calamity of heaven and earth arises at the right moment. It can only be dissipated when the calamity is over. Does His Majesty, the Human Emperor, have a way to solve it?"
I have to say that the lava python's words are quite informative.
What is calamity?
That was a terrifying disaster that would make a saint bleed. I didn’t expect that the so-called disaster energy was related to the calamity of heaven and earth. Isn’t this too big?
Liu Ye was secretly shocked, but on the surface he waved his hand calmly.
"It doesn't matter, it's just a calamity, it's not worth mentioning."
"Take me to Dragon Heart Rock."
Longxinyan is thousands of meters away from the shore, so it is impossible to jump over it.
Dragonborn was left outside to watch the scene again, so naturally he couldn't take him to fly over like last time.
As for the fire phoenix in the territorial space, it cannot be used in this underground environment.
Faced with Liu Ye's request, the lava python didn't resist at all and swam over immediately.
Then he lowered his head and motioned for Liu Ye to come up.
Liu Ye didn't show any pretense and jumped onto the snake's head.
Wow!
The lava python broke through the layers of magma and quickly swam to the Dragon Heart Rock.
boom!
As soon as he stepped onto the bare Dragon Heart Rock, Liu Ye felt a calamity that far exceeded the outside world.
It was even a bit more intense than what the eight golden-armored giants had released.
Sitting cross-legged, Liu Ye used all his strength to activate his immortal body.
Wisps of black energy converged from Longxinyan into Liu Ye's body, and gradually, a black cocoon formed on the surface of Liu Ye's body.
Time passed minute by minute, and finally, when the last ray of black energy dissipated, Liu Ye's aura suddenly rose to a higher level.
The true form of immortality has officially broken through to the tenth level.
Although it is just a step up, it is a qualitative leap from entry to success.
"Huh? Is your martial arts cultivation about to break through?"
Feeling the boiling Qi and blood in his body, Liu Ye simply stopped doing nothing and began to break through the orifice realm.
