The golden lotus seeds had not changed at all. In other words, none of the people they met were future Buddhas.
"Arhat Subduing the Dragon, this time you follow me, you must believe my words." Manjushri Bodhisattva began to speak to Arhat Subduing the Dragon.
When Manjushri Bodhisattva talked about the golden lotus seeds before, perhaps the Dragon-subduing Arhat and the Buddha were still a little unconvinced. This time, the Dragon-subduing Arhat followed Manjushri Bodhisattva and the results were instantly verified.
The Dragon Subduing Arhat also had the golden lotus seed. This time they came to Bashu City together and walked around. In the end, they still didn't find any abnormality in the golden lotus seed.
This also means that Manjushri Bodhisattva was right at the beginning, and indeed no one could induce changes in the golden lotus seeds.
"Manjusri Bodhisattva, of course there is no place here, but have you discovered a problem." Dragon Subduing Arhat asked.
"Huh?" Manjushri Bodhisattva was slightly startled, not quite understanding the meaning of Arhat Subduing the Dragon.
"There is one less person here." Dragon Subduing Arhat sighed and spoke.
"There's someone missing?" Manjushri Bodhisattva was once again stunned at this moment, but he quickly came to his senses.
He also discovered the problem at this time.
There is indeed one person missing.
The general named Lu Jiu is missing!
The rest of the Dali army who came to support the Bashu city are still there. For example, the Marquis of Luo Shen, General Weiyuan, General of the Northern Expedition, and General Protector of the Country are all here, and there are more than 20,000 remaining soldiers. They are all here too.
But only Lu Jiu was missing, and of course, there were the soldiers who were still stationed at Yumen Pass at this time.
Of course they had heard the name Lu Jiu a lot these days. This name was the most popular name recently.
In fact, the Dragon-Subduing Arhat had a vague suspicion that it was none other than Lu Jiucai who had caused the golden lotus seeds to move. However, there was no evidence for this.
The two did not continue to stay in Bashu City, but quickly reached an agreement. One went to Yumen Pass in the north to investigate again, and the other went to look for traces of Lu Jiu.
After the two of them verified it again, they would know who was the person who caused the transformation of the golden lotus seed.
…
Meanwhile, Northland.
The current season in the North is the coldest. Normally, this season is the most critical time for the Northland barbarians to attack the human race, and it is also the most difficult time for the Northland barbarians to survive.
It is precisely because of the difficulty that we have to work hard. Only in this way can we survive.
But now, all the barbarians are struggling to survive in the extremely cold ice and snow of the North.
In the past few days, there have been reports of barbarian tribes freezing to death one after another, but none of the tribes have caused trouble, which made the barbarian prince heave a deep sigh of relief.
He only brought back more than 30,000 barbarians out of the 100,000 barbarians. But as long as these barbarians are still there, there is still hope, and that is enough.
He is also waiting for a good final result.
These days, he has been questioned a lot, mainly because the battle with the human race made him completely lose face. Now among the barbarian tribes, although no one openly makes trouble, it is for the sake of the barbarian king. The tribe is afraid of the Barbarian King. As long as the Barbarian King is still there, they will not dare to make mistakes or make trouble at will. However, the Barbarian Crown Prince heard about it and everyone was talking privately, saying that this Barbarian Crown Prince is not as good as the previous one. Of course, he does not have the image of a hero. Leading troops to fight will only destroy the good son of their barbarians. Everyone is not very satisfied with this new barbarian prince.
But the barbarian prince paid no attention to these doubts.
His mission is different. He only needs to stabilize the current situation and prevent any other troubles. He, the prince of the barbarian tribe, does not need to take care of other things.
My father is about to leave seclusion.
The Gu King is here, and so is the Sword Master.
…
Deep underground in the Northland, there is a unique palace. The place is shrouded in formations, the power of flames is burning crazily, the underground lava, and the strong earth core pressure all cover this place.
In the center of the palace, there was an ice bed made of ice, crystal clear, like mutton-fat white jade.
On the ice bed, there lay a barbarian who was more than two feet tall. He had a beard all over his face and looked rather sloppy, but he had an extremely heroic face. The strong muscles on his body possessed explosive power. .
The barbarian was sleeping, his face was ruddy and delicate, and his vitality was extremely strong.
Next to the ice bed, there was a stone table and several stone benches. In front of the stone table, two people were sitting opposite each other, with steaming tea in front of them.
"The Barbarian King was born towards death. Now that his vitality has been restored, it won't be long before he can successfully climb to the top and break through to the ninth level." Huang Jianjiu said at this time, and then drank the hot tea in the cup. .
"Yes, the qi of heaven and earth has changed." King Gu looked up at this time, his eyes seemed to penetrate the entire underground, and then looked up, in the sky, terrifying power storms began to form, which were the unique celestial secrets. , others may not be able to see it, because they are not strong enough to detect the changes in the air in the sky, but as a ninth-level Gu King, they can see it.
That is the power of heaven and earth needed to achieve the ninth rank. Why is it difficult to give birth to the ninth rank in this world? That is because no one in the world knows that a ninth rank can drain the power contained in heaven and earth, and it takes a lot of time to recover. It took many years to be able to support the birth of another ninth-grade person.
He didn't understand it before, until he cultivated the immortality Gu, and then with the help of the power of the immortality Gu, he achieved the ninth level. The Gu King discovered this secret.
Ninth-level martial arts consumes the power of heaven and earth.
But this time, the Man King was able to successfully advance to the ninth level, not with the help of the power of heaven and earth. The Man King himself had a very strong foundation and had been working steadily for so many years. He did not need to consume too much power of heaven and earth to achieve the ninth level.
Otherwise, the power of heaven and earth consumed by Gu King has not been recovered yet. In a short period of time, it will be difficult for Barbarian King to break through the ninth level if he relies on external force.
"Zhao Wuji's strength is stronger than before." Huang Jianjiu said at this time: "He practiced with the big gentleman, and his strength is now almost the same as that of Song Zhiwen."
"Just like that, when you reach the ninth level, you will find that even a hundred top eighth levels are no match for one ninth level. This is the qualitative difference." King Gu said at this time without caring.
Only after he achieved the ninth rank, Gu King realized why the eighth rank and the ninth rank were only one rank apart, but there was such a huge strength gap. Because of the difficulty, the ninth rank strong man was a god, and the eighth rank was a god. Pin, at best, is just a very powerful person.
The gap between gods and humans is as big as the gap between the eighth and ninth grades.
But the more Gu King said this, the more uncomfortable Huang Jianjiu felt. He had worked hard and calculated to open the ancient tomb of the former Martial Saint, but he did not expect that the power of the inner demon inside was so terrifying. His soul was also corroded, forcing him to cut off half of his soul. However, he could have taken this opportunity to collect both the Heart of the Sun and the Heart of the Inner Demon, and then his two hearts would become two. For one, to become a ninth-grade Martial Saint, that is unparalleled strength in the world.
Do you need to talk to King Gu here now? ?
However, the hateful Lu Jiu actually took away the opportunity that originally belonged to him. Damn it!
"Brother Jianjiu doesn't have to be like this." As if he saw Huang Jianjiu's thoughts, King Gu continued: "Your cultivation is already very strong. Relying on your own strength, you may not be able to break through the ninth level. Besides, Haven't I always been helping you?"
"This time, after King Man breaks through to the ninth level, he may have other insights and teach them to you. When the time comes, you and King Man will join forces. In this vast world, who will be your opponent?" King Gu said. At that time, he comforted Huang Jianjiu.
"When the time comes, you will be responsible for commanding the human race, I will be responsible for commanding the Gu clan, and the Barbarian King will be responsible for commanding the barbarian clan. Wouldn't it be beautiful if our three clans divided the world equally."
When Huang Jianjiu heard this, his expression softened slightly.
Huang Jianjiu himself cut off half of his soul and was annihilated in the ancient tomb of the Martial Saint. His own strength should have declined greatly, but it was precisely because of this, with the help of Gu King, that Huang Jianjiu regained part of his strength. Strength.
The Gu medicine that King Gu gave him had a great effect.
However, Huang Jianjiu also knows very well that cooperating with the Gu King and the Barbarian King is tantamount to seeking the skin of a tiger. But the current situation is like this. If he does not cooperate with them, what else can he do? ?
Like them who were punished by Sanskrit, surrendered to the imperial court?
Huang Jianjiu couldn't do it.
While the two were talking, there was gradually movement on the ice bed.
The sound of heavy breathing came from the Barbarian King's mouth at this time. Both of them stopped their movements and stared at the ice bed.
Is the Barbarian King about to break through? ?
…
At the same time, in the extremely cold land of the ice and snow in the North, there was a simple room made of heavy snow and ice crystals.
A handsome young man woke up from his sleep, breathing heavily.
"No, I'm too hungry, and to resist the cold, I need a lot of blood and food to support it." The young man took a breath of hot air at this time, and then blew on his frozen hands.
In this room, there are still corpses of barbarians on the ground, but the tall barbarians are like paper-skinned men, lying scattered in this room.
"Damn Zhao Wuji, damn Fang Yi!!" The young man's eyes were full of resentment at this time. If it weren't for the two of them, would he have needed to hide in this hellish place in the ice and snow? ?
"You have to eat first. Only when you are full can you have the strength to leave here and return to the East China Sea as soon as possible. That's the business." With that said, the young man walked out of his room and began to prepare food for hunting.
