Natsume flashed and instantly came to An Mitsuha's side.
She is located in the bubble prison at the bottom of [Dragon Palace City].
"How did you find it here?"
"Where is the Lord of Egret City?"
An Mijinyu pointed at the gray key in his hand and responded:
"This key led me here."
"The other party should be within this bubble, right?"
Although this artifact key has been scrapped, it still has some magical power and guides An Mijinyu all the way.
"Okay, let's go in and have a look."
Natsume made an immediate decision.
He also wanted to know what happened to the entire [Dragon Palace City]?
Enter the bubble.
Natsume and the others instantly saw the figure of [Egret City Lord].
Precisely.
It was just a half-blurred shadow.
There is no breath of life at all.
It is obvious that this is not the entity of the egret.
"You are indeed here!"
The Lord of Egret City turned to look at Natsume and sighed with a bit of joy.
Natsume: "What are you doing?"
Egret: "I am already dead, this is just a spiritual mark."
"Underworld's Secret Technique: [Shen Shen Huan], I believe Lord Ango Jinyu should know about it, right?"
Jinyu nodded and explained to Natsume:
"A kind of sealing secret technique. It can leave a soul mark after the death of the body, and still inherit the original memory, thinking and part of the spiritual intelligence, and maintain it for a period of time..."
"However, this also means..."
"It means I'm completely dead!"
The Lord of Bailu City admitted frankly.
It seems that death is not a regret for him, but a relief.
Listen to this.
Natsume also fell silent.
This is similar to what Minato and Kushina do. Before his death, he sealed part of his chakra and consciousness inside Naruto.
In order to help Naruto suppress the Nine-Tails and inspire Naruto at the critical moment in the future.
However, this underworld secret technique is more advanced.
Even after the soul is annihilated, it can still continue the memory and thinking of the original body...
and.
The other party was obviously dead, but he deliberately left his soul mark here.
It is estimated that they want to take advantage of the 230 times difference in speed between inside and outside the bubble.
Extend the time as much as possible.
After all, if the bubble can last for one year, the city can last for 230 years.
Long enough to wait until Natsume and Tsuha return.
It seems.
The Lord of Egret City probably had very important information to tell the two of them.
…
Although the outcome was anticipated.
But now that it was confirmed with his own eyes that [Egret City Lord] was dead, Natsume couldn't help but secretly regret it.
The other party and him no longer knew each other.
and.
In a sense, the other party can be regarded as his brother-in-law.
To be honest, Natsume didn't want to see [Egret City Lord] die.
"Can it still be resurrected?"
Bailu: "It's impossible. My soul has been completely destroyed. Even the [True God] cannot save it..."
"Who did it? Is it the Kyoshi guy?"
"No, it was [Zhenruo King] who did it."
Natsume was suddenly startled.
Did you guess wrong?
[Zhenruo King] Why did that guy attack [Ryugong Castle] now?
What is he planning?
You’re full and have nothing to do?
"how come?"
"Didn't you already reach an agreement with the [Royal Clan]? Didn't the [Royal Clan] already control most of the [Dragon Palace City]?"
"Why did he?"
[Egret City Lord] sighed:
"Hey, we were all deceived by him."
"The purpose of [Royal Family] is not to seize [Dragon Palace City] at all, but for the [Artifact Core] in my hand!"
"Do you remember that [Otsutsuki Yuji]?"
Natsume: "Of course I remember."
"But, is that guy a fake?"
"After I left [Ryuugong Castle], I met the real 'Otsutsuki Goji' in [Imperial Castle]."
"So, who is that guy pretending to be?"
Bailu: "He is [Zhenruo King] himself!"
Natsume was shocked again.
To know.
When 'Otsutsuki Goji' was arrogant and arrogant in [Ryugu Castle], [King Shinwako] was in the [Underworld], preparing for the ceremony to be promoted to [True God]!
How could that fake Otsutsuki Goji be King Shinwa?
[Dragon Palace City] is independent of [Shiyuan Realm], and [Yellow Spring Realm] is also independent of [Main Universe].
Separated by two world barriers.
No matter how powerful King Shinruo is, he can't control him seamlessly through the air, right?
Isn't this too outrageous?
…
Lord Bailu continued:
"That guy [Shenwao King] did come to 'Otsutsuki Yuji', or did the two interchange? Or is it some other ability..."
"Exactly how he did it, I don't know."
"But there's no way I could be wrong."
"The one I fought against was indeed [King Zhenruo] himself!"
"Only he can possess such overwhelming strength and three complete [artifacts]!"
Hearing this, Natsume was stunned again.
Since the Lord of Bailu City is so sure, the other party must be [Zhenruo King].
Both sides fought to the death head-on.
If you still can’t tell whether the enemy is [Zhenruo King] or [Xu Shi].
It is impossible for the Lord of Bailu City to survive to this day.
not to mention.
He can kill the egret, and he also has three complete [artifacts]...
Except for [Shinwao King] and [Kyoshiki]; looking at the entire Otsutsuki clan, there is no one else who can do it.
but.
What really puzzled Natsume was.
[Zhen Ruo Wang] Why do you do this?
That guy doesn’t lack [artifacts] at all?
Even if he defeated Egret, captured the [Artifact Core], and controlled the entire [Dragon Palace City].
It's impossible to help him win against Kyoshi!
After all, this [City of Artifacts] cannot be taken away...
Instead, he will be bound here and will never be able to leave [Dragon Palace City]...
…
Natsume: "What on earth did he do?"
Bailu: "Investigated [Ryugu Castle], killed me, captured and destroyed the [Artifact Core], and finally released the [Otsutsuki Dragon Style]..."
"Dragon style?!!"
"That's right, it's the first generation [King of Otsutsuki]."
"Don't forget, this [Dragon Palace City] has been a prison independent of time from the beginning!"
Hundreds of thousands of years ago.
When Longshi built this [Dragon Palace City], it was apparently used to imprison a large number of 'captive gods of the underworld'.
In fact, he wanted to use it to seal the blood vessels of the [Ancestor True God].
As for why it should be locked?
That's unknown...
at last.
Dragon Pose both succeeded and failed.
He successfully built this [City of Artifacts];
But he failed and was suppressed by [Otsutsuki Yamei], and was permanently trapped in this [Ryuugong Castle].
"Where is the dragon style sealed?"
"Remember the 'Eternal Dark Zone' that you entered through the key?"
"That is the core of [Ryuugu Castle], and it is also the area used to imprison [Otsutsuki Ryushiki]."
"I have long guessed that the [Royal Family] or [Parliament] will take action against me sooner or later."
"That's why I handed over the 'Key to the Artifact' to Lord Angotsuha."
"I hope that when you enter [Dragon Palace City] again, I can tell you all the secrets about [Dragon Palace City]."
"I just didn't expect that the [Royal Family] would be so eager to attack me."
"I didn't even expect that it would be the [Zhen Ruo King] who took action himself..."
The egret sighed again.
The deep sadness was beyond words.
Having been in charge of Dragon Palace City for so many years, he naturally has his own plans and plans.
The sealed [Otsutsuki Dragon Style] was one of his plans.
Unfortunately.
All his revenge plans are based on the sudden attack of [Zhenruo King], under the opponent's absolute strength!
Every inch shattered and turned into nothing...
Hundreds of thousands of years of hard work and forbearance were shattered.
He failed to destroy the [Royal Family] with his own hands, and failed to avenge his mentor and lover.
Naturally, he was unwilling and extremely regretful.
fine.
I left my soul mark in advance so that all the truth would not be buried here...
"So, [Shenruo King] is here to rescue [Ryuushiki]."
"To welcome back the first generation [King of Otsutsuki] and help him fight against [Kyoshi]?"
Natsume guessed.
But before Egret could answer, Natsume immediately denied it.
"Not too possible!"
"That guy is definitely not this kind of person."
"You won't put your hopes on others."
"He must have other intentions to rescue [Otsutsuki Ryushiki]!"
Although I only met [Zhenruo King] once.
But Natsume knows his character very well.
That kind of arrogant king would never be cowardly enough to form an alliance with others!
Moreover, if he really puts his hope in [Dragon Style].
It is impossible to delay until now to rescue the other party.
…
