Blood State, the secret realm of the Seven Kills Palace Mountain Gate.
Since the defeat of the Goddess Palace in the first battle, the Seven Kills Palace has taken the initiative to withdraw from the world's disputes in order to maintain peace. At the same time, it has also gone completely silent, giving up some of the interests of the Blood State.
Only then did Chen Yuan now have half the power, and with the Heavenly Demon Palace as his wing, the glory of the Seven Kills Palace was basically about to be completely suppressed.
In the eyes of many people, the Seven Kills Palace has declined and there is no need to be too respectful. Many of the affiliated forces that were once under the jurisdiction of the Seven Kills Highness have recently fallen into the arms of the Heavenly Demon Palace.
And the Heavenly Demon Palace had no intention of saying hello to the Seven Kills Palace, so it just accepted the order, and its power increased greatly.
Now, with Chen Yuan taking Qingzhou and approaching the border of Yunzhou and Yangzhou, he is even more popular. When these two major states fall into his hands, more than half of the country will be lost.
But most of the world has the surname Chen.
The atmosphere inside the gate of the Seven Kills Palace was completely cold and desolate. Of course, as an assassination organization, the secret realm of the Seven Kills Palace itself was not as active as other immortal sects.
Dead silence and silence have always been the portrayal of the Seven Kills Hall.
Back mountain.
Not many people knew about the news that the founder of the Seven Kills Hall was still alive. People outside generally made speculations and did not dare to be completely sure that he must be dead.
Just like Shushan and Biyou Palace, as long as you keep hiding it, others will not dare to claim that there are no immortals in the Immortal Sect. That is to say, the immortal heritage of Shushan and the immortal heritage of Biyou Palace were successively wiped out in several battles, and then they were allowed to Presence decreased.
As for the Seven Kills Hall, in fact, even the people in their hall didn't know whether the immortals in the sect were still there. It wasn't until the battle of the Goddess Palace that the Seven Kills Hall immortals officially appeared in front of the people of the world.
Therefore, Qishaodian has some confidence.
Even though looking at Xiao Suo and deathly silence, none of the disciples in the Seven Kills Hall panicked, because they knew that if the immortal was still alive, no force would dare to attack the Seven Kills Hall rashly.
Even now that Chen Yuan is at the height of his power and the Heavenly Demon Palace is in the limelight, he is only trying to test the confidence of the Seven Kills Palace and then gives up without any real break-up.
Ripples appeared in the surrounding void, and the Master of the Seven Kills Hall, dressed in black robes and wearing a ghost face, slowly appeared. His arms were hidden in his sleeves. From a distance, he looked like a ghost.

Although he was forced to lose an arm by Chen Yuan, with his cultivation level, it is not difficult to cultivate himself. Because he lost his own arm, he naturally suppressed the loss to a minimum. .
Looking at the deep valley below, the Master of the Seven Kills Hall drew a faint light in the void and went deep into it.
It is still the same layout as before, with bronze divine coffin and black iron chains. The only difference is that the dust on it has still dispersed and it has become very neat. The Master of the Seven Kills Palace bowed and said in a low voice:
"Disciple meets the Patriarch!"
A dull light lit up on the bronze coffin, and lines rose up. The unique hoarse voice of the founder of the Seven Kills Hall slowly sounded:
"How...how...is it..."
"Back to our ancestors, we have found traces of Xiang Qianqiu." The master of Qisha Palace raised his head and said in a solemn voice.
"where....."
The last time he was moved by the conditions promised by Xiang Qianqiu, he broke out of the coffin and stopped Moro for him, which cost him a lot of energy.
He was actually very old, and he was a figure of the same era as Lu Chengfeng, the old city lord of Emperor Wu City. The reason why Lu Chengfeng didn't show up at the beginning was because he didn't want to be discovered by him.
Almost all the immortals of that era have fallen. Only he and the old master of the Demon Palace are still alive. This is naturally not because they have higher cultivation and stronger strength.
Just because they are willing to pay the price, they are always willing to sleep, and wake up every hundred years, devour blood and food, and seal the soul with the divine source to delay the passage of life.
The existence of other immortal sects is not willing to live like the living dead.
The divine source had been exhausted, so he had to take action, but Xiang Qianqiu deceived him, and he has not been able to find the whereabouts of the other party until now. He was unwilling to do too much, so he ordered the Seven Kills Hall to search for him.
He wants the lives of Shenyuan and Xiang Qianqiu!
"Grandmaster...are you really willing for the Seven Kills Palace to withdraw from the struggle for hegemony in the world from now on? Now, almost all the top ten immortal sects in the world have entered the game.
If we are left behind, the gap will become wider and wider in the future..."
The Master of the Seven Kills Hall did not answer the Patriarch's words, but turned to talk about another matter.
"You...want to say...what..."
"This disciple believes that the Seven Kills Palace should not retreat like this. It must enter the game. Only by entering can we strive for greater benefits in the future."
The Master of the Seven Kills Palace continued.
"Before...you...why...didn't agree..."
"There are too many immortal sect forces gathered around Chen Yuan. Half of the immortal sects and a large number of forces in the world are by his side. Even if they join him, what benefits will they get?
Wealth and honor are sought in danger, and the disciples think that...it is not appropriate to support Chen Yuan..."
"Then...who do you...think...is suitable..."
"Xiang Qianqiu!"
The Master of the Seven Kills Palace replied firmly.
"The defeated general...the lost dog...he...has...been...defeated...has no...chance..."
"No, there is still a chance. As long as Chen Yuan is killed, the forces under his command will naturally fall apart, and the entire Yan army will be tied to his hands.
This is both an advantage and a disadvantage..."
The Master of the Seven Kills Palace had already prepared a plan in his mind, and when faced with the Patriarch's questions and answers, he responded with ease.
"Don't forget...and...blood oath...restraint..."
Hearing such words, the Lord of the Seven Kills Hall raised a smile on his lips:
"The blood oath does not have much restriction on you, and besides... what you promised at the beginning was that as long as he, Chen Yuan, is still here, the Seven Kills Palace will no longer participate in the world's disputes.
But there is no restriction on me, Qi Sha Dian, not to help others attack him..."
"You... secretly hate... that he forced you... to break your arm..."
"There is this reason, but it is not all because of this reason. The disciple just feels that if Chen Yuan really ascends the throne and dominates the world, it will definitely not be a good thing for our Seven Kills Palace.
His character has always been to wipe out the roots, exterminate families and slaughter sects. The disciple finally figured out why he didn't take action in the Goddess Palace before and let us go.
It was not because he was merciful, but because the Earth Immortal Power may have left. Moro alone could not defeat the Patriarch, and it would also chill the hearts of the people in the Heavenly Demon Palace, so he gave up.
I want to ask, when he has truly achieved great success, how can he let go of Qishaodian, who has become a thorn in his side and a thorn in his flesh?
Attacking him... not only for profit, but also for self-protection! "
"Xiang Qianqiu...promised to...you...on what terms?"
After a long silence, the Immortal of the Seven Kills Hall slowly said.
"How about Xiang Qianqiu answering this question personally?" the master of Qisha Hall asked.
"he came?"
"Always waiting outside the mountain."
"Good...means..."
The founder of the Seven Kills Hall in the coffin was shocked. He didn't find any trace of the other party's existence. It was really scary. The people of the Xiang family... were difficult to deal with!
"Let...him...come...over!"
"yes."
The master of the Seven Kills Palace nodded, moved his lips slightly, and said through the voice:
"Fellow Daoist Xiang, show up."
A moment later, the void in the canyon rippled again, and Xiang Qianqiu's figure slowly appeared. It was no different from the previous attire, but the reality around him was slightly different.
Standing there, in close contact with the surrounding world, with an invisible regular wave escaping, he raised his hand, clenched his fist and saluted, and said:
"I haven't seen you for a long time. My senior's demeanor is getting better and better."
The divine patterns on the bronze divine coffin kept lighting up, and the surrounding atmosphere became somewhat solidified. A huge momentum instantly enveloped the entire canyon, as if a powerful beast was resurrecting.
"Where is God...Source...?"
"Senior, don't be anxious. Xiang is here this time to fulfill the conditions he promised before." After saying that, Xiang Qianqiu's hand flashed with light.
A ball of blue jade appeared in the palm of his hand.
The jade exudes a cool breath, and after one sniff, you can feel comfortable all over, as if the hot summer has suddenly changed into the cool autumn.
"not enough...."
The Patriarch of the Seven Kills Hall continued.
"These divine sources are enough to delay the passage of vitality for the seniors for a few more decades. It is indeed not enough, but this thing is too precious. Even the Xiang family doesn't have much.
This time I got one-tenth of it. "
"Haha...conditions."
Xiang Qianqiu's words have made it very clear that he will only give a part of it this time, but he still needs his help. After the matter is completed, he will be given more divine sources.
"Senior is quick to speak quickly, so Xiang Mou is no longer secretive. Xiang Mou hopes that senior can take action to help Xiang Mou stabilize a void and completely introduce Chen Yuan into it.
It was up to the seniors to stop Moro from intervening in the matter between Xiang and the traitor. "
Xiang Qianqiu smiled faintly.
After the Patriarch of the Seven Kills Hall in the Bronze Divine Coffin was silent for a long time, he made some noise again:
"With...your...strength...you can't kill...him."
The last time Chen Yuan and Xiang Qianqiu fought, he basically witnessed the whole process. Although Xiang Qianqiu was stronger, he was not likely to kill Chen Yuan.
And once Xiang Qianqiu fails again, the relationship between Qi Sha Dian and Chen Yuan will be completely broken, and it will be a life-and-death situation from now on.
It is very dangerous for the Seven Kills Palace!
"It was true that I couldn't kill him before, but after a while, it won't be possible." Xiang Qianqiu's eyes were deep, his tone was deep, his hands were clasped, and he seemed to be very confident.
"You...want...to break through?"
The Patriarch of the Seven Kills Palace asked.
"Yes, if you can't kill him in the fifth realm, then I will use my cultivation in the sixth realm to kill him. I don't believe it. The immortals in the sixth realm can't kill a true king of Yangshen!"
Xiang Qianqiu frowned, his eyes slightly cold.
He made a choice!
He is no longer obsessed with following Taizu's footsteps, because he has almost lost everything now, and Chen Yuan's cultivation has always been very fast, and there is not much time left for him.
In order to have the power to truly crush Chen Yuan, Xiang Qianqiu decided... to break through!
He is only half a step away from the Sixth Realm. On the road of rules, he has gone further than Manjusri and Ye Xiangnan. It's just that he has always wanted to take the road of the God of War, so he has been suppressing his own realm.
Otherwise, with his cultivation, he would have been able to break through decades ago.
After the battle in the Goddess Palace, he carefully weighed it. If he didn't break through, it wouldn't be enough to crush Chen Yuan. Not only would he lose everything, but Chen Yuan, who hated the Xiang family, would definitely be murderous after he gained power.
Forced into a desperate situation, he has only one way to go now.
As for continuing to suppress and looking for opportunities to kill Chen Yuan, that would be simply too stupid. He had thought about it, but no matter how he calculated, there was no chance of winning if he wanted to kill Chen Yuan.
And it will get lower and lower as time goes by...
"Why...so...persistent..."
Not only was the Patriarch of the Seven Kills Hall confused, but even the Master of the Seven Kills Hall was looking at Xiang Qianqiu with some interest. They really didn't know what kind of hatred and hatred made Xiang Qianqiu so persistent.
"At this point, senior doesn't have to worry about it. There is a reason to kill him after all..." Xiang Qianqiu's eyes were calm and indifferent.
The existence of Chen Yuan has greatly hindered his path. The road to the Martial God has been blocked, so he can only find another way. He only hopes... that it will not be too weak than the Martial God's Road.
"hehe....."
"What do you think, senior?"
Xiang Qianqiu stared at the bronze divine coffin and continued to ask.
"what can you give me...."
It was like the sound of dry tree bark rubbing against each other, very harsh.
"The accumulation of half of all the divine resources in my Xiang family is enough to extend the life of my senior for several hundred years. In addition, it is still the same conditions as before to help the Seven Kills Palace come to the fore.
From now on, I no longer live in such darkness. "
"Two thirds...."
Xiang Qianqiu frowned and remained silent, and the Bronze Divine Coffin also did not speak, as if he was sure that Xiang Qianqiu would agree.
The surrounding void also fell into silence.
The Master of the Seven Kills Palace remained silent. At this moment, he was no different from a tool man!
"good!"
After a moment, Xiang Qianqiu nodded and agreed to the request of the Patriarch of the Seven Kills Hall.
"When...when...do you do it?"
"Wait until Xiang comes out of seclusion!"
Xiang Qianqiu said in a deep voice.
"good...."
...
Nanzhou, within the secret territory of the Xiang family.
Xiang Qianqiu, who was sitting alone in the Xiang family ancestral hall, was wearing a bright yellow python robe with four golden claws embroidered on it. It was the attire he wore when he became the crown prince of Da Chu.
With five claws, he is the emperor.
It's a pity that his father was the last emperor, and he... also became the last prince. It was the first time since the fall of Da Chu that he put on such clothes again.
With his hair tied up in a bun, at first glance, Xiang Qianqiu's appearance is actually very young. Except for a trace of vicissitudes in his eyes, he almost looks like a young man in his twenties.
In the ancestral hall, there are portraits of the previous emperors of the Xiang family, and the God-killing Spear, which is said to be the only one in the history of Chu Taizu, is placed in front of the portrait of Chu Taizu.
On the incense burner, there are three sacred incense sticks, and the incense gas flows straight up.
"I don't believe it, but you can really defeat the gods!"
Xiang Qianqiu stared at the portrait of Chu Taizu and murmured to himself. His voice echoed throughout the ancestral hall, thick, majestic...and unwilling!
No one answered his words, and no one paid attention to him. The huge Xiang family ancestral hall was empty.
His eyes glowed with a faint divine light, and the Taoist charm all over his body was more in line with the surrounding void. After being silent for a long time, he continued to murmur to himself:
"If you can still win, then..."
