"Wait!" Tiniu shouted, standing in front of Lu Chen.
"Why, you suddenly want to change someone?" Wang Chang looked a little ugly.
"Substitute?" Tiniu asked again, "Master Niu doesn't believe you, so I'm aggrieved!" He waved to someone not far away, and the heavy object that had just fallen on the field appeared in the palm of his hand.
A large tiger head seal flashed with golden light.
"Sealing the spirit?" Meng Xuan asked.
The Spirit-Sealing Seal, as its name suggests, only has a sealing effect. Now Tiniu borrowed the Spirit-Sealing Seal from Aunt Qi, naturally to deal with Wang Chang.
"Chang Wang, Brother Lu didn't work hard in cultivation. He has only reached the peak of martial arts at such an old age. In order to prevent you from cheating, I am aggrieved to you!" Tiniu muttered.
Hearing this, Lu Chen felt ashamed. Didn't he practice hard?
Wang Chang also greeted Tiniu in his heart. With his strength, does he need to cheat?
Although his spiritual power and cultivation were suppressed, his physical strength was also suppressed to the strength he had when he reached the peak of his cultivation as a great martial artist. However, combat experience and the use of physical strength were all accumulated and had nothing to do with his cultivation.
"Mr. Wang, are you aggrieved?" Tiniu chuckled, looked at the king, and handed the seal of soul seal to the king.
"You're so awesome, you..." Wang Chang was so angry that he secretly sighed, was he so discredited?
"Chang Wang, there is nothing we can do. You are a habitual offender, and brother Lu Chen is a distinguished guest. If you suddenly cheat and hurt little brother Lu Chen, no one can afford it!"
"That's right, Chief Wang, why don't you just seal it for a while to cultivate?" Some onlookers booed.
"Yes, Chief Wang, the seal will be unsealed after the fight. We will bear witness to you!"
Everyone was booing, but Wang Chang could only nod. Firstly, he was really worried about accidentally hurting a believer. Secondly, he wanted Chihong to see clearly who was the strongest.
"Okay!" He gritted his teeth and a drop of blood fell into the sealing seal. He handed it to Lu Chen, who also flicked his finger and a drop of blood fell.
As two drops of essence and blood dripped in, the spirit-sealing seal emitted a golden light, slowly rising up in the sky, constantly hovering above the two people's heads. After two breaths, a curtain of light fell, completely covering Wang Chang.
"The peak of a great martial artist!" Wang Chang muttered, feeling very awkward. He no longer had that powerful feeling, which made him unable to adapt for a while.
"Do it!" Te Niu shouted at Te Han, turned into an afterimage, and rushed towards Meng Xuan and the others.
"Be careful!" Wang Chang warned Lu Chen, his figure flashed and he crushed him.
boom!
There was a soft sound. Compared with Te Niu and Te Han's battle circle, the movement here was undoubtedly much smaller. However, almost everyone focused their attention on Wang Chang's battle circle.
They really want to see how strong the person who is qualified to hold the faith is.
"This..." Wang Chang led the attack and punched away, his face changed drastically, and his figure hurriedly retreated.
"Brother Wang, here we come!" Lu Chen grinned. He also wanted to see how strong his body was. If he could resist the opponent's punch, he already knew that he could completely crush his opponent.
Turning into an afterimage, looking at it now, Lu Chen's whole body is full of weapons. His feet, palms, elbows, knees, and even his head, all the parts of his body that can be used to attack are used to the extreme, like a fighting machine.
At the peak level of a great martial artist, his physical strength is comparable to that of a spiritual weapon. Such physical strength would frighten even the king in the village.
They live in a mountain village, cultivating their spiritual power outside the canyon, and cultivating their physical bodies inside the canyon. Compared with the outside world, their power and terror seem a bit embarrassing compared to Lu Chen.
After all, young children in the village have the realm of great martial arts masters, and some families will throw their children into the back mountain canyon to hone their skills when they are young.
At the peak level of a great martial artist, he was just a kid in the village who had just learned how to run. His physical strength was naturally much stronger than that of ordinary cultivators in the outside world. However, compared with Lu Chen at this period, the gap was too obvious.
After experiencing the Nine Pagodas, the back mountain canyon, and the baptism of the ancestral precepts, he has completely crushed the ascetics of the same realm in the village.
"I..." Wang Chang felt aggrieved and punched out. The opponent didn't resist at all and let the fist fall on him.
He was strong, but now that he was fighting against the same realm, he only felt aggrieved.
At the peak level of a great martial artist, wanting to use physical strength to destroy a spiritual weapon is just a fool's errand.
"What a strong body!" onlookers exclaimed.
"That's right, the peak level of a great martial artist can match the strength of spiritual weapons. This kind of body is unparalleled even in the village!"
Everyone was talking and watching Wang Chang being tortured.
Although Wang Chang was suppressed and beaten, Lu Chen was extremely shocked by the power of this village.
Only then did he realize that it was not an exaggeration to hear that people in the village had reached the realm of great martial arts masters in their early childhood. At the moment, it was not that the king was too weak, but that the village was too strong, so powerful that it made his heart tremble.
Not to mention the most powerful of the older generation, the newborns are already defying heaven.
This is a battle of the same realm, equivalent to Lu Chen facing Wang Chang when he was a child.
If it were a fight of the same age, Lu Chen had no doubt that he would not be able to withstand even one of Wang Chang's moves.
"I surrender!" Wang Chang was very unwilling. This surrender had exhausted his three years of expectations. Facing Lu Chen, he could only watch the fist fall on him. He knew that the opponent had already held back, otherwise, How could I withstand the attack of a spiritual weapon as a child?
"Admit defeat?" Hearing this, Tiniu intensified his attack, attacking Meng Xuan like a violent storm.
"Madman!" Meng Xuan cursed. The Tiniu in front of him was completely a mad cow. His moves were completely unorganized. This was not a competition between peers in the village. He did not do any defense, only attack.
Kill one thousand enemies and suffer eight hundred losses!
Ignoring Meng Xuan's fist falling on him, he was completely replacing one punch with another.
"Tiniu, you're crazy!" Looking at Tiniu who was panting heavily and still looking like a mad cow, Meng Xuan kept retreating, avoiding Tiniu's punch and shouted.
"Fight!" Tuiniu ignored him, fists raining down.
"You..." Meng Xuan was furious. As soon as they fought, he knew that he was no longer a strong opponent. He just wanted to drag it on. Wang Chang and Pu Wei defeated their opponents. They still won. He never thought that Wang Chang would be defeated like this. fast.
It was simply one-sided and pushed all the way.
"I... give up!" Meng Xuan also gave up in frustration. He didn't want to face a madman again.
"Haha!" Hearing Meng Xuan admit defeat, Tiniu collapsed to the ground and turned to look at the stone platform. There, a figure ran towards him like a wisp of red clouds. It was a ray of light that illuminated his entrance again and again. Back mountain canyon.
"Silly Niu, silly Niu, why are you so stupid? You deliberately provoked your ancestors, and you were sent to the back mountain canyon for training again and again!" Chihong, dressed in bright red, ran over and hugged Tiniu in her arms.
"Haha!" Tuniu just giggled and looked at Lu Chen with a grateful face.
"Okay!" A round of applause erupted from the surroundings. Upon seeing this, Tehan and Puwei had already stopped fighting. There was no need for them to continue fighting.
"Although you didn't defeat me with your own hands, a defeat is a defeat. Congratulations!" Wang Chang came over, looking a little lonely. He congratulated Tiniu, and then looked at Chihong.
"What are you looking at? This belongs to An Niu!" Te Niu, who was leaning in Chi Hong's arms, curled his lips, pulled the former's arm, and moved closer to his arms.
"Niu Wazi, I can't even take a look at it!" Wang Chang, who looked lonely, was very angry when he heard this. However, his face became much better and he showed a smile, "Congratulations from the bottom of my heart, maybe I understand!"
After saying that, he turned to look at Lu Chen, "If you are not in the same realm, I will suppress you!" Wang Chang waved his fist.
Lu Chen smiled, secretly sighing at how tough the people in this village were, and chuckled, "Brother Wang, I'm sorry!"
"Haha, we don't need to be like this in this village. If you lose, you lose, and it just makes them happy, right?" Wang Chang put his arm around Lu Chen's shoulders, not caring, and looked envious of the two men who stood up and held hands tightly. people.
"We can have wedding wine again!" Meng Xuan also came over and punched Tiniu, "One more punch!"
"Haha!" After receiving Meng Xuan's punch, Tiniu laughed.
"Well, come to my house for a wedding banquet tomorrow!" Tiniu suddenly spoke, and everyone was silent for a while after hearing this.
"Toniu, are you crazy about Chihong?" Qi Shan couldn't help but speak.
"That's right, Tiniu, you like Chihong so much, why would you marry her in such a frivolous manner?" someone followed.
No one expected that Tiniu, who had always played her cards unconventionally, would be so unconventional even when she got married.
"Hehe, we have been preparing for many years!" Tuniu looked honest, scratched the back of his head, and looked at Chihong affectionately. The latter's face turned red when he heard this. He pinched Tiniu's arm lightly and turned around to go into the stone house. Run.
"Wow..." everyone exclaimed. When the king heard this, he almost slapped Tiniu to death. "She was ready to marry you. You didn't tell me, so she waited three years in vain!"
Tiniu scratched the back of his head, "Isn't this the rule in the village?".
"Go away! Who said that you have to go through a party before you can get married?" Wang Chang slapped him directly in the face, and Tiniu didn't dodge and just endured it.
"Come to my house to get some wine tonight!" Wang Chang said, pulling Lu Chen aside, "Brother Lu, please leave tomorrow!"
Lu Chen smiled, he never thought that Wang Chang would drag him here just to say this.
"We have nothing to give you. You can't take it out of the village. Tomorrow, this awesome kid gets married, and the village will be quiet again!" Wang Chang looked lonely. Lu Chen thought that he had not yet recovered from the complete loss of Chi Hong. .
"Our village is very simple. Losing is just losing. We don't care too much. I just feel that if you leave today, you will regret it for the rest of your life!" Wang Chang sighed.
"Brother Wang, if you have any instructions, just ask!" Lu Chen said with his fists clasped. He knew there was something in Wang Chang's words.
"I can't talk about the orders, I just don't want it to end like this. Many things cannot be explained clearly, just like our destiny is never under our control!"
When Lu Chen heard this, he couldn't help but think of the young man who dared to attack the animal bone building. Recalling the scenes in the village, he suddenly discovered that there seemed to be very few elderly people in this small village, and most of them were the younger generation.
"Brother Wang, why does this village exist? What is your fate?" Lu Chen continued to ask.
Wang Chang heard the words and shook his head, "I can't explain, but after tomorrow, there is no hope!" His voice drifted, and his figure had already appeared on the stone path in the distance, walking towards the back mountain step by step. Lu Chen didn't know where he was going. where.
Not far away, various noises kept coming, many of them shouting for Tiniu to go to his house to get something, "Stop shouting, Niuwazi, can you remember? Tomorrow morning, everyone will send it there together and gather together." !" Someone shouted loudly.
"Okay, this is a good idea, that's it!"
Everyone hit it off immediately, Tiniu kept grinning happily, and walked up to Chiqing in two steps, "Tiniu, after tomorrow, I will be your real brother-in-law, but I can't be like before!"
"How can you do that? Didn't you always carry rocks to get into the back mountain canyon?" Tu Niu looked embarrassed.
"Everyone, in the past, Tiniu trained in order to enter the back mountain canyon. Don't take it to heart!" Chi Qing apologized to everyone.
"Haha, Chi Qing, you still don't know the temperament of the people in the village?" A man patted Chi Qing on the shoulder and laughed.
As evening approached, the afterglow fell, and not far away, a figure hurried from the back mountain.
"Let's go, our ancestors want to see you!" Wang Chang called Lu Chen, turned around and walked away from the stone path.
"Is it finally here?" Lu Chen whispered, following Wang Chang's figure.
The stone path was very short, and the two of them were speechless along the way. Lu Chen had many questions, but did not ask them. He knew that he could not get any information from the king.
The last hope can only be placed on the ancestors of the village.
It looks like a very ordinary building. Even the wooden door is like the entrance hall in an ordinary home. It is even more simple, or a bit broken. The corners have been smoothed, and even the handle has been polished to be slightly slimmer.
The low wooden door, the broken threshold, and even a few unknown wild mushrooms were in the corner of the door. Lu Chen frowned. He really couldn't believe that this would be a place respected by the entire village and the ancestors of the village. place of residence.
If he hadn't witnessed the suppression of the Qishan ancestors with his own eyes, he might not have believed it even if someone told him personally.
Everything in front of me is too ordinary and ordinary. Not to mention the monks, even the place where ordinary people live is much better than here.
"Ancestor!" Wang Chang bowed respectfully and tapped the door handle.
Squeak!
The almost rotten wooden door opened, and Lu Chen took a step back. He even suspected that the wooden door would collapse if he put just a little force.
When the wooden door opened, it was pitch dark, and a rotten musty smell assaulted his nostrils, making him wave his hands to cover his nose.
"Brother Lu is laughing, I haven't been here for many years!" Wang Chang was a little embarrassed when he saw this.
Lu Chen shook his head and didn't care. He stared at the dark wooden house, but it was too dark to see anything. He even wanted to control the power of his soul to investigate, but in the end he held back.
"Come in!" A voice suddenly came from the dark room. It was a bit illusory. To the ears, it was like going deep into the depths of the soul sea. It made people unable to resist at all, and there was only admiration in their hearts.
"Brother Lu, I won't accompany you in!" Wang Chang clasped his fists and said to Lu Chen. The latter nodded when he heard the words. He also knew that this is the residence of his ancestors and the belief of the entire village. No old man With the permission of the ancestors, no one dares to step in at will.
Taking one step forward, Lu Chen felt dizzy, extremely nauseous deep down in his heart, and just wanted to vomit.
"Little guy, you're used to spitting!" The illusory voice sounded again. After the words fell, the nausea deep in Lu Chen's heart disappeared. He stood up and looked around hurriedly.
"This..." Lu Chen was shocked. There was a world of difference between this place and the scene he saw outside the wooden door.
The dark surroundings disappeared, and there was a gray space. Looking up, above the head, the light spots were like stars. It was those light spots that gave this space a glimmer of light.
Lu Chen was surprised and walked forward step by step. Not far away, a figure was sitting cross-legged on a futon. In front of him, in a small incense burner, three fragrant incense sticks were floating in the air, rising faintly and seeming to blend into the world. Overhead among the stars.
"That's not right!" Lu Chen was surprised. He found that every step he took seemed to be traveling through the long river of time. As he moved forward, the stars above his head were changing and seemed to be getting bigger.
He couldn't believe it, and took several steps in succession. He was sure that it was not an illusion. The stars in the gray sky were indeed getting bigger.
He couldn't help but pick up his feet, watching the stars gradually getting bigger, and looked at the illusory figure again, "Senior!" Lu Chen shouted softly, cupping his fists and saluting.
There was no movement in the figure in front of him. The old monk seemed to be in trance and sensed carefully, not even noticing a trace of life.
He was horrified in his heart. He couldn't believe that the ancestor whom the entire village respected had actually died long ago. All that was left was a ray of spiritual thought. He shook his head and suppressed the absurd thoughts in his heart. Everyone in the village knew that the ancestor had just returned a few days ago. .
Thinking of this, Lu Chen's speed suddenly increased, and the stars in the void were expanding at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"It's the spirit throne!" Lu Chen couldn't help but take a breath of cold air when he saw the true appearance of the stars in the sky. All he saw were spirit thrones. The edges of the spiritual thrones were invisible. Behind the spiritual thrones, soul lamps were burning, and soul fires were burning. Misty.
He was shocked in his heart. Such a scale of spiritual status even surpassed the hanging coffin in the underground snake cave. At the same time, Lu Chen was also shocked. The soul fire was still burning, which meant that the person had not yet fallen. He had never heard of setting up a spiritual status for a living person. live this custom.
"Senior!" Lu Chen called softly again. He still didn't believe that the figure not far away had died.
"Can you please hurry up? Can I hear it even though I'm several times away?" The illusory voice sounded, and Lu Chen smiled, his feet speeding up.
"Senior!" Looking at the figure in front of him, Lu Chen saluted respectfully.
"Sit down!" A phantom voice sounded. He lowered his head and a futon appeared behind him. Sitting cross-legged, Lu Chen wanted to go to the front and take a look at this ancestor of everyone in the village.
"You really want to know my true face?" The illusory voice came from the void. Lu Chen frowned and listened carefully. It was indeed not that figure who spoke.
「
No need to investigate, he is me, I am him! "After the words fell, the figure suddenly turned around and looked intently. Lu Chen staggered and almost fell to the ground.
"Huanyue Tian?" A chill rushed from the bottom of his heart to the top of his head. The figure in front of him was very familiar. The master of Huanyue Valley who almost sacrificed the entire Huanyue Valley might even silence Huanyue Valley. After erasing it, his married wife was treated as a half-dead medium.
Such a person would actually be admired by the mysterious village, a powerful person who made his heart tremble. Facing such a powerful person, no matter how invincible he felt, he could not muster any fighting spirit.
"Huanyue Tian? Have you seen him?" came the illusory voice, which surprised Lu Chen.
"Senior, who are you?" Lu Chen tried to ask. Although the person in front of him had exactly the same face, it seemed that he was not Huanyuetian.
"The last name? I have long forgotten it in the long river of time. You can call me Suiren's family!"
"The Suiren clan?" Lu Chen whispered, recalling this clan. In the village, he discussed this clan with Mr. Ge, but he had never heard of it in the rumors. There was no record of such a powerful clan in the long history of time. The master and the apprentice People can't believe it.
"Senior, what are your instructions for calling this junior here?" Lu Chen bowed respectfully before speaking again.
"Instructions? It's impossible to talk about it. After all, you are the root left by them. As for letting you come, I just want you to burn a stick of incense!" As soon as the illusory voice finished speaking, three sticks of fragrance appeared in front of Lu Chen, and he thought for a moment. , he finally took the fragrance in his hands.
After taking the fragrance, wisps of smoke rose up, and the three sticks of fragrance ignited spontaneously without fire. Taking two steps, Lu Chen bowed respectfully in the direction of the incense burner and saluted. He had nothing to do with these undead souls, but he always insisted on "death" If the ceremony is over, the incense should be inserted into the incense burner.
"This incense..." Lu Chen exclaimed. He didn't pay attention at first, but when he put on the incense, he realized that what was lit in the incense burner was not an ordinary fragrance, but the incense of falling dragon that only existed in rumors.
Lit the fragrance in your hand, and you can faintly see a real dragon leaping in each stick of fragrance. In the cauldron, 70% of the fragrance has been burned, the real dragon is dormant, and wisps of mysterious factors turn into smoke and rise, finally disappearing into the boundless sky. In the soul fire.
Lu Chen had only seen Dragon Incense in the classics given by Mr. Ge. It was a legendary thing, and every stick was worth a sky-high price. Mr. Ge once doubted whether such a wonderful fragrance of heaven and earth really existed in the world.
Its efficacy is immeasurable. Lu Chen could tell it at a glance only because of the real dragon leaping and flying in the incense. As for whether it was really the legendary Dragon Subduing Incense, he couldn't be sure. If it was true, it would be too terrifying. In the large incense burner, the ashes had already spilled out of the incense burner and onto the ground.
As the fragrance entered the incense burner, Lu Chen lowered his head and bowed. The moment he raised his head, his face looked strange. The three previous sticks of Jianglong Incense in the incense burner had disappeared completely without any trace.
Shaking his head, he opened his eyes again, but there was still no fragrance.
"What's going on?" Lu Chen, who had not recovered from the doubts about the disappearance of the fragrance, suddenly felt a tremor in the air. He looked up and his face changed drastically.
In the void, soul lanterns floated one after another. Nine more bright spots suddenly appeared in nine directions. The bright spots flowed around, and finally they were neatly arranged in three rows. The numbers of three and three were nine pieces of fragrance, the same as the incense in the incense burner. dragon!
Lu Chen frowned and looked at Jianglongxiang arranged in threes and threes.
"Oh, Nine-nine Chains!" A voice came from the void, a little lonely.
Lu Chen muttered, the Nine-Nine Links is the incense that seeks help from the gods. It is said that the Nine-Nine Links can reach up to the thirty-three heavens and down to the thirty-three places. It can be said to be the incense that connects gods and ghosts.
Three sticks of incense were put into the furnace, and nine-nine incense sticks immediately appeared. Lu Chen was frightened. Is this someone asking for help? Manpower can't do it. Asking the heavens for help?
He really couldn't imagine how strong a person was, and what kind of horror he encountered, to actually ignite the incense that only existed in rumors.
boom!
In the long stretch of near-dead silence, there was a sudden loud noise, and then a sharp shout.
