In Nanchidi, too much blood was buried. It can be said that the most tragic battle that year took place in Nanchidi.
Every time Li Qiye came to Nanchidi, he couldn't help but think of those heroic spirits standing in this mountain and river. Many times he wished that time would stop, so that he could always accompany these heroic spirits!
Standing on a broken river, Li Qiye was silent, gently listening to the sound of the river flowing. Ye Chuyun stayed by his side quietly, gently holding his hand to comfort him.
"Did you know?" Li Qiye looked at Ye Chuyun, pointed at the broken river in front of him, and said: "In those distant years, there used to be mountains of bones here. Without the piles of bones of those heroic spirits, there would be no place today. Nine realms.”
"Although I don't know much about the distant war." Ye Chuyun gently held Li Qiye's hand and said, "But I hope that Brother Li will continue to move forward. The sacrifices of the ancestors are the hope of the future generations." People can move on. Brother Li is in a low mood, and my little sister is also feeling bad."
Looking at the mountains and rivers in front of him, Li Qiye sighed softly in his heart. The war back then was too cruel. How many generals from his most powerful legion, the most elite legion, died fighting in these mountains and rivers? middle!
"Let's go to the Heaven Protector Sect." Finally, Li Qiye sighed softly, shook his head gently, and said nothing more.
Ye Chuyun silently accompanied Li Qiye as he traveled eastward. On the way, Ye Chuyun introduced some local customs to Li Qiye from time to time. She only hoped to see Li Qiye's smile every day.
The Guardian Sect is a well-known inheritance in Nanchidi and even in the entire human emperor world. The Heaven Protector Sect is a sect with three emperors, and its reputation is so great that it is difficult to match it.
In Nanchidi, there are two major lineages belonging to the Three Emperors, one is the Tianhu Sect and the other is Qizhushan. If. Qizhushan is a vibrant inheritance, but the Hutian Sect is a bit twilight, especially in recent eras. The Guardian Sect was silent for a long time and kept a low profile for a long time.
The Guardian Sect has a very high status in the human emperor world. This is not only because the Guardian Sect is the inheritance of the Three Emperors, but also because of the efforts of the Guardian Sect!
Legend has it that in the distant ancient underworld era. The Guardian Sect has participated in one battle after another, and countless geniuses have died in one battle after another! In those battles, the Guardian Sect paid a heavy price!
You know, before the age of emperors, the Hutian Sect was already extremely powerful. Someone once calculated that the Hutian Sect was the inheritance that produced the most god emperors and even true gods. Some people even called the Hutian Sect Call it the most powerful inheritance of the Three Emperors in the world!
If the Hutian Sect had not participated in one shocking battle after another, and countless god emperors and geniuses died in battle, maybe the Hutian Sect might have surpassed the arrogant Feixian Sect!
Someone once said. The Guardian Sect is the pride of the human race, and it is they who protect the human race. It is precisely because of this that even other Imperial Immortal Sects respect the Heaven Protector Sect very much.
Li Qiye and Ye Chuyun arrived at the Hutian Sect and saw towering peaks here. Each peak reached straight into the sky. It seemed that this was where the gods lived.
No matter who you are, when you stand outside the Hutian Sect and look at the Hutian Sect, you will feel small. Under these majestic peaks, any living creature feels as small as an ant. Especially the supreme trend within the ancestral land of the Heaven Protecting Sect makes people feel like the stars in the sky are rotating around the Heaven Protecting Sect.
There is a stone tablet erected outside the mountain gate of Hutian Sect. There is no text engraved on this stone tablet, but there is a crown engraved on it. It seems that this crown is the crown worn by the Nine Heavens Immortal King.
When he stood outside the gate of Hutian Sect again, Li Qiye couldn't help but sigh softly. After so many years, he was back here again.
In those distant years, every time he left here, the men of the Guardian Sect accompanied him on expeditions. Especially in the ancient Ming Dynasty, not many men who went on expeditions with him came back alive.
Therefore, later on, he was unwilling to return to the Hutian Sect, because he did not want the men of the Hutian Sect to accompany him on expeditions, and he did not want to see the disciples of the Hutian Sect step onto his chariot again!
For Li Qiye, the Guardian Sect had already sacrificed too much for the final battle in the Gu Ming era. It can be said that at that time, the Guardian Sect had always supported him. In order to snipe Gu Ming, the Guardian Sect It can be said that a big price was paid.
You must know that in those years of bloody battles, his legion fought against Gu Ming again and again. How many generals in his legion were disciples of the Tianhu Sect!
Later, Li Qiye was unwilling to return to the Hutian Sect. The reason was very simple. He was unwilling to let the disciples of the Hutian Sect fight with him anymore, because the Hutian Sect had already given enough.
Although he had helped the Immortal Emperor Suppressing Prison and Immortal Mu Tian when they were young and wanted to conquer the heavens time and time again, he had rarely set foot in the Heaven Protecting Sect during the era of emperors. Even if he later Suppressed Prison The Immortal Emperor and the Immortal Emperor Mutian once lobbied him to return to the Hutian Sect, but he refused.
"Fellow Taoist, please go back. Our Hutian Sect does not accept outsiders." When Li Qiye and Ye Chuyun stood outside the gate of the Hutian Sect, the disciples of the Hutian Sect guarding the gate shook their heads and said to them.
Li Qiye looked at the disciples of the Heaven Protector Sect, shook his head slightly, and said, "That's just because they don't accept outsiders. I didn't say they were outsiders."
Li Qiye's words made the disciples of Tianhu Sect look at Li Qiye and said, "I wonder what I call you?"
Li Qiye did not answer his words, but told Ye Chuyun: "You settle here for the time being, and I will go in to meet them." After saying that, he walked towards the stone tablet in front of the mountain gate.
The stone tablet had no words. Li Qiye walked to the stone tablet, opened his eyebrows, and shot out two golden laws. With a "clang" sound, the laws were nailed to the stone tablet.
A "buzz" sounded, and at this time, the wordless stone tablet suddenly appeared with a golden light. A "dang" sounded, and at this time, the two golden rules turned into two words, and what was written on it - the emperor!
The two words "Emperor" were shining with golden light and majestic, rebuking the Fang chief. Then the two words "Emperor" disappeared, the stone tablet opened, and a golden divine crown emerged. This golden divine crown was made up of two golden rules intertwined.
At this time, Li Qiye took off the golden divine crown and solemnly put it on his head. A golden divine crown is worn on the top of the head, with golden tassels hanging down. Wearing such a golden divine crown on Li Qiye's head, Li Qiye immediately exuded an awe-inspiring immortal power. Looking at it, Li Qiye seemed to be a generation of immortal kings!
Seeing Li Qiye's demeanor, Ye Chuyun couldn't help but be moved. At this moment, Li Qiye was like an immortal king coming to the world, and everyone who saw it was in awe.
The disciples of the Tianhu Sect who were guarding the mountain gate couldn't help but be shocked. This wordless stone tablet had been standing for who knows how many years. They had never known that this stone tablet had such mystery.
"Go, ring the bell, the emperor has returned." Li Qiye said to the disciples guarding the mountain gate.
"The Emperor is back -" Upon hearing such words, the disciple guarding the mountain gate couldn't help but trembled, and without saying a word, he immediately ran inside.
Li Qiye wore a golden divine crown and walked into the Tianhu Sect! When he stepped into this familiar mountain and river, Li Qiye felt an indescribable heaviness in his heart.
"Dang——" A long and heavy bell sounded. This long and deep bell spread far and far, even the ancestors who were sleeping in the deepest part of the Heaven Protector Sect could hear it.
"The emperor has returned!" Even the sleeping ancestor was awakened by the sound of the bell. Hearing only a long and heavy bell, the ancestor couldn't help being surprised and murmured: "Is it true?"
At this time, Li Qiye walked into an ancient palace, sat there, and ordered the disciples guarding the door: "Let your ancestor or leader come to see me."
The disciples guarding the door were very surprised, but they did not dare to neglect and went immediately.
After a while, a middle-aged man rushed in. After he came in, he was shocked when he saw Li Qiye sitting there. He looked at Li Qiye carefully. His eyes were on Li Qiye. The golden crown on top of his head stayed for a long time.
"You all go down." After finally confirming, the middle-aged man ordered the disciples guarding the door. The disciples responded and all retreated.
Li Qiye's eyes fell on this middle-aged man. This middle-aged man was fat and looked a bit like the shopkeeper in a shop in the mortal world.
Don't be fooled by this middle-aged man's fat appearance, he is famous in Nanchidi! He is the leader of the Hutian Sect, and his Taoist name is Dutian. He forcibly ascended to Daxian in the difficult era of Dao, and his reputation spread far and wide, making people fear him.
Dutian bowed to Li Qiye and said respectfully: "I don't know how to address you, your honor?"
"Emperor, Li Qiye!" Li Qiye said expressionlessly: "What is your purpose?"
"Protect the Emperor, guard the power of Heaven—" Du Tian hurriedly shouted, immediately bowed to the ground, and shouted: "When the Emperor returns, the sect does not greet him with formations and rituals. This is the fault of the disciples—"
"The customary etiquette is waived." Li Qiye waved his hand gently and said: "You and I are not outsiders, so the previous red tape can be dispensed with."
Dutian stood up, and he couldn't help but feel a little excited. There has always been a legend within their Heaven Protector Sect that the mission of these future generations of disciples is to wait for the return of the Emperor.
Just like the purpose of their Heaven-Guarding Sect, protect the Son of Heaven and guard the power of Heaven! This is the ancestral precept passed down from generation to generation by their Heaven Protector Sect!
However, generations have passed and the Emperor has not returned. Although there is news about the Emperor in later generations such as the Immortal Emperor Zhen Yu and the Immortal Emperor Mu Tian, the Emperor has never returned.
The Hutian Sect has been guarding each other from generation to generation, waiting for the return of the Emperor. With the Emperor, the Hutian Sect is the real Hutian Sect! (To be continued.)
