...
The Fengmo River is surging and rolling for 83,000 miles. It emerges from Pingbo Mountain, passes through three prefectures, six cities and twelve counties, irrigates farmland on both sides of the river, benefits millions of people, and finally flows into the South China Sea.
It is already late autumn, and although winter has not yet arrived, the cold air has already followed the river and affected this water town in the southwest of Central China.
Jingan City is majestic and tall, backed by mountains and rivers. It is rich in products and has a large population, which naturally breeds endless prosperity.
At this time, it was already 89,600 years ago in the First Age of Tai Chi (the Eleventh Age of Emperor Tian). After a shocking battle thousands of years ago, the Central Continent experienced temporary tranquility.
Jingan City is not as good as Qingdu, the largest city in the Central Continent, but it is also one of the few large cities in the Central Continent.
With the city as the center, countless small towns, counties, and villages are dotted around, and the population among them is ten times that of Jingan City.
Unlike Jingan City, these small people in Shengdou make a living by fishing and hunting, planting spiritual fields, digging mineral veins, and carrying goods for passing merchants.
In the past 90,000 years, the world has changed. The "armored carriages" centered on Qingdu City have long been spread throughout the central mainland, but shipping is naturally indispensable.
Jing'an City, known as the Three Rivers and Nine Waters, has naturally become the transportation artery of the southwest. It handles countless goods every day and supports countless people.
Because there are Taoist priests from the Tai Chi dojo, there are still clusters of ghosts and ghosts, but they are all suppressed by the prosperity. Ordinary people have even forgotten the existence of ghosts.
Woo~
Sounds like thunderous explosions resounded through the wilderness, alarming the birds and beasts in the distant vegetation.
Xu Xun suddenly raised his head and saw a huge thing two feet tall and several hundred feet long roaring towards him on the straight road that ran through the wilderness mountains and rivers.
Its speed is extremely fast, and the bubbles produced by the violent flow of air in the air can be seen with the naked eye, and the sound of a sonic boom like the roar of dragons and tigers is left far behind.
When the armored car roared past, it exploded like a barrage of cannons in the wilderness, forests, and mountains.
The beasts are terrified!
"Is there another war happening somewhere? Hundreds of armored vehicles passed by in one day, and we couldn't even kill a bird in the whole day!"
The young man dressed as a hunter had a gloomy face.
The movement of the armored chariot caused all the beasts to panic, and the sound waves exploded where not only ordinary beasts, but also legendary monsters would urinate.
It’s weird to be able to hit something.
"There's nothing we can do about it."
Xu Xun shook his head slightly, with some doubts in his heart. The armored vehicles came and went too frequently. You must know that the hunting place they chose was a remote place where it was not common to drive.
His name is Xu Xun, whose courtesy name is Shengyang. He is eighteen years old. He has a slender and tall figure and an impressive appearance. Even though he wears linen clothes and coarse cloth, his heroic appearance cannot be concealed.
His father was a failed scholar, and his mother was a noble lady. It is said that she eloped and fled.
It is precisely because he has such a pair of parents that he can have a Chinese character besides his name. Ordinary villagers even have random names, let alone Chinese characters.
"It seems like we can't hit anything today."
The companion called out bad luck, put away his sword and bow, and arranged the long arrows one by one. Fang said: "I heard that someone in the next village saw the immortals from the 'Tai Chi Dojo' wandering around in this mountain forest a few days ago. Maybe there is something strange in this mountain." , it’s better not to spend the night.”
"You go back first."
Xu Xun hesitated slightly, but still shook his head in refusal.
He came out not only for hunting this time, but his father was seriously ill and needed precious medicine to survive, as well as spiritual nourishment from meat.
What's more important is that he is the best hunter within a hundred miles nearby, but he has never seen those legendary monsters in these years.
In my heart, I actually don’t really believe it.
"Then be careful." His companion knew Xu Xun's character and asked casually. When he refused, he didn't say much, bowed his hands and prepared to go down the mountain.
Woohoo~
Another armored car sped past.
Xu Xun shook his head in his heart, but he had no choice but to change places. However, the sound of the armored car passing by was so loud that it shook hundreds of miles. It was impossible to think that it would have no impact at all.
In fact, armored vehicles are already present throughout the Central Continent. In a sense, they are also the first line of defense to prevent wild beasts from colliding.
"We have to go deep into the mountains..."
Xu Xun bent down and tightened his trousers, took the sword and bow and rushed into the forest, far away from the armored car.
While walking, he could still hear armored vehicles speeding past, and he couldn't help but mutter in his heart that this frequency was not right.
His steps were very fast, covering a distance of several feet at a time, and the rugged and pathless mountainous terrain did not trouble him at all.
But perhaps he was frightened by the armored car. Birds and beasts were rarely seen along the way, and there was no trace of the spiritual beasts he needed.
Gradually the sky became darker, and Xu Xun's brows furrowed deeper and deeper. Even if the frequency of armored vehicles became higher today, he shouldn't get nothing.
"call!"
After walking for an unknown amount of time, the sun was almost setting. Xu Xun finally stopped and sweat appeared on his forehead.
He had meager martial arts skills, but he was not considered a master. He was very tired after walking for so long. In addition, the sky was dark, so he had to find a place to stay.
There was no hut built by hunters in this deep mountain. Xu Xun searched for a long time before he found a secluded valley.
But as soon as he entered the forest, he frowned.
I heard the faint voices coming from the valley. Is there anyone else in the mountains? Could it be that there are hunters nearby who are resting here?
With caution in his heart, he gradually walked into the valley.
The Snake Valley is not big, but the vegetation seems to be evergreen, and there are all kinds of unknown flowers blooming. Xu Xun saw a lot of precious spiritual materials in it, but unfortunately they were not what he was looking for.
After walking for a short time, the faint human voice became clearer. Xu Xun's heart moved and he hid in a bush and looked at it quietly.
It was in the middle of the valley, a small lake where small waterfalls converged.
There is an old tree surrounded by several people on the bank of the small lake. The old branches are densely leafy, but they emit a faint green light, which looks particularly bright in the dusk.
Under the tree, there were four old men wearing high crowns, belts, or Taoist robes, facing each other as if they were playing chess.
"This is......"
Xu Xun's heart moved when he heard one of the old men in Taoist robes say: "There is no such thing as eternal strength, there is no one who is ever victorious. It has been three thousand years since the old Heavenly Master disappeared. I'm afraid those three on the other side of the sea are about to make a move."
The voice of the old man in Taoist robes was full of Taoism, and hearing it was like a spring breeze. As Xu Xun listened, he felt that all the fatigue from running around for a day had dissipated, and his body was as warm as a hot spring.
Suddenly there was some surprise in my heart: "This, could this be the immortal from the Tai Chi Dojo?"
People are always strange. They don't believe that ghosts can harm people, but they believe in gods, Buddhas and immortals. Xu Xun is no exception. He is eager to go out and become a disciple.
"The life and death of the old Celestial Master may not be known, but the Divine Court still hangs in the nine heavens to regulate the world's cultivators. The Great Spirit Official has unparalleled magical powers and his Dharma Eyes monitor the world. Those three can only fight with the old Celestial Master for thousands of years. I'm afraid they are not the Great Spirit The official's opponent..."
The speaker was a monk holding a Buddhist bead. He sighed slightly: "What a pity, Heavenly Master. For such a powerful person, if he had not chosen such a path, it would be easy for him to become a Buddha and become an ancestor, right?"
Heavenly Master? !
Who are they talking about?
A contemporary master of Tai Chi dojo?
Or the two legendary heavenly masters?
Xu Xun was thinking a lot and was a little dazed for a moment, so he didn't go out.
"The Divine Court is so powerful that even though there is no Lao Tianshi, there are still Yan Xiake, Wei Shaoyou and Emperor Gou. I'm afraid the war has not yet broken out, right?"
Gao Guanbo, who looked like an old man who had read poetry and books, smoothed his beard with his hands, his eyes flashing: "Those three are better than the Tai Chi dojo, and they are definitely not the ones we can rely on."
His words were addressed to the old man in blood-robed robes, the only one among the four who had not spoken.
"What's the use of a dog, a skeleton, and a useless person? Without the old Heavenly Master, they can't defend the Divine Court, let alone the Central Continent!"
The voice of the old man in blood robe was hoarse, and his mouth was like iron and stone rubbing against each other, sharp and harsh. It sounded like a snake was slithering around his neck and spitting out messages.
Xu Xun's heart thumped, and he faintly sensed that something was wrong. This man didn't seem to be a kind person.
"The only destination for everyone lies in the Emperor of Heaven!"
The blood-robed old man pointed at the dim sky, his eyes dim and said: "My lord, inspired by the heart of heaven, foretells that changes will come to the southwest of the Central Continent. Here, I specially invite three people to join forces with me to massacre this southwest land! "
"Tu Xinan?"
The three monks, Taoists and Confucians looked at each other with fear, but neither of them responded.
The divine court controls the world, and the heavenly rules restrain the gods. There has been no killing of ordinary people in the Central Continent for tens of thousands of years. How dare they agree so easily?
Even though they have already been dissatisfied with Shenting.
The old man in blood robe saw this and got straight to the point:
"The three of them are all major cultivators who have been practicing for thousands of years. They should be proud of the world and let me do whatever they want, but instead they are restrained in the mountains and forests, sitting back and watching the children being mermaided and fleshed out without being able to do anything!
You have been oppressed so far, why not follow me and rebel against Wang Wei! "
"How dare you mention the Great Spirit Officer's name?!"
The expressions of the three of them all changed, as if they had heard the most terrifying thing in the world, and the feeling of horror could not be suppressed in their hearts.
Good and evil are rewarded like a shadow!
The Dutian Great Spiritual Officer was extremely powerful and invincible. According to legend, he had reached the ultimate level long before the Tai Chi Era. For tens of thousands of years, few people dared to call him by his name.
"I have a treasure with me, why should I be afraid of the clay statue-like Wang Lingguan in the temple?!"
The blood-robed old man responded proudly, and in the red light rippling behind him, a divine sword stained with the blood of endless slaughter flashed past.
Even though it just flashed by, the hearts of the three people jumped, as if they saw mountains of corpses and seas of blood, endless killing scenes, and their souls felt stung.
Xu Xun's pupils shrank, and he felt pain everywhere in his body, as if he was about to be killed on the spot in the next moment!
"Then, who actually gave you this treasure?!" The three monks, Taoists and Confucians were all shocked and frightened. They even left their seats and involuntarily moved away.
It is said that the three immortals who came to the world came according to the will of the emperor and heaven, and the invincible existence in the upper world bestowed the most powerful treasures, making them invincible.
Between heaven and earth, only the Divine Court can compete. Without the Divine Court, not even the old Heavenly Master can stop the power of the treasure!
This old man in blood robe was actually given a treasure. How could they dare to believe it? !
"Although it is not a supreme treasure, it still has a part of its mystery. The treasure is invincible, and one part of it is enough to dominate the world! With this treasure in hand, Wang E suppresses the divine court and cannot leave without authorization, and the rest of the divine court..."
The old man in blood robe stood up, his aura was mysterious and powerful:
"If he comes, kill him like a dog!"
The words were floating in the air, but they had not yet landed.
The pupils of the four people, including the old man in blood robe, suddenly shrank, as if they felt some extremely terrifying existence.
They all looked up.
I saw that in the early night, the full moon was in the sky, and in the water-like moonlight, there was a shadow flowing down.
I don't know how many thousands of miles away it is, but it is coming between the mountains and above the valleys. Its sound is unruly, but it is like the sound of the sky flowing down, and thousands of thunders are exploding:
"You said you want to kill the dog?"
