"You want me to hand over the Qiongsha Sacred Artifact!"
In the ancestral hall, the silver-robed young man's voice was cold and indifferent, like the echo of a deep valley, echoing in the empty ice palace.
Jiang Li frowned slightly and raised his head to look at the leader of the Kui tribe on the throne, "The Kui tribe has lived in the Far North Mountains for a long time. Their constitution, which contains stiff blood, is not adapted to the hot environment of the Qiong Shark Sea. What does the leader want a sacred artifact for?"
"The Qilin Son is not the luck and power that I covet the Qiongsha Sacred Artifact. This object is related to the stability of the Far North Mountains. If you take the Holy Artifact, you should know that it can easily melt thousands of miles of glaciers."
The young man in silver robe calmly said: "Although I don't know what means you used to make the Qiong Shark Sacred Artifact temporarily restrain its aura and fluctuations, but as long as it does not truly recognize its master for one day, it will be in a state of fluctuation. It will be difficult for our clan to survive. I hope that any unstable factors will affect the peaceful reproduction of our race.
"The Shark Sacred Artifact has no owner and has never belonged to the Kui tribe. I will not let you donate it in vain. As long as you hand over the Shark Sacred Artifact and let our tribe suppress it, the Kui tribe will exchange gifts in equal measure."
The young man in silver robe slowly raised his hand and pointed outside the hall, "For example, the thirty giant beasts suppressed by the mountain gods in the valley, and a certain number of atavistic Kuei people!"
"Alien beasts and zombies!"
Jiang Li's heart skipped a beat.
I have to say that the silver-robed young man’s proposal is very weighty!
Each of the suppressed alien beasts in the open space of the valley was very powerful, exuding a trace of coercion that was close to the level of a half-step human immortal.
The Zombie Kuai Legion also possesses strength close to the peak of the Divine Transformation Realm. They are not afraid of life and death and feel no pain. They are true killing machines.
No matter who has such a force under his command, he can expand his territory and become king.
only……
"The leader's proposal really makes me excited, but it is not enough to exchange for the Shark Sacred Artifact. This thing is related to the future pattern of Kyushu and the opportunity for transcendence. To me, it is much more important than the strange beasts and the zombies!"
Jiang Li refused without hesitation: "But you can rest assured, chief. As long as I don't die, the Shark Artifact will never threaten the Far North!"
"Qilinzi seems to be very confident in himself!"
The young man in silver robe narrowed his eyes and leaned forward. An unknown pressure surged down, like a lonely peak being pushed tilted.
The endless snow accumulated on the top of the mountain peaks trembles but does not fall, adding unknown fear to people's hearts.
"You'd better show the strength of your methods that convinces me and makes me feel at ease. Otherwise, no matter what, I won't let you walk out of the ancestral court with the Qiong Shark Sacred Artifact. Neither Kuiren nor Kyushu can withstand this potential danger! "
The silver-robed young man's tone was still calm, without any hint of threat, he was just stating a fact.
"Just because of your words, I have to show my true heritage? Your Kui tribe also suppressed the Qiong Shark Sacred Artifact, but the result was not ideal.
"If I hadn't arrived by chance, the holy weapon would have fallen into the hands of the five major families, and the Kui clan's ancestral court would also be within the influence of the holy weapon. What's more, even if I really hand it over, how certain are you that it can be perfected? Suppress!"
Jiang Li faced the indifferent gaze of the leader of the Kui clan, suddenly smiled, took steps, and walked straight towards the depths of the hall.
"Ever since I obtained the Qiongsha Sacred Artifact, I have always had a question in my mind. If the Sacred Artifact is so important to the Kui tribe, why was it suppressed outside the mountain range?
"The far north is vast and spans nine states. There is not just one place suitable for suppressing the sacred artifacts. Since the ancestral court is protected by the mountain god, wouldn't it be safer to suppress the sacred artifacts here?"
Jiang Li asked as he walked, his loud voice like thunder and drum, deafening and sonorous.
"Stop the human race. The temple is our race's supreme holy place. No one can touch the majesty of the mountain god and his attendants!"
Deep in the ice palace, two ancestral warriors standing next to the throne took a step forward at the same time, shouting angrily in cold voices, hitting the ground heavily with their spears, the sound wave expanded violently, and invisible concussive power rolled out like a stormy wave.
Jiang Li's steps were steady, like a rock holding up the sky. He was swept by the force of the waves, and he moved forward slowly without any sway. Even his clothes fell calmly, unmoved by external forces.
"The snow falls and kills!"
"The imprisoned beast is punished by nature!"
Seeing that Jiang Li was still moving forward, two ancestral warriors stepped forward at the same time, crashing towards him like falling stars.
The ice crystal spear in his hand curled and stabbed, erupting two completely different scenes.
Infinite ice crystals and snowflakes follow, rolling up a layer of shadows like a curtain and a tide, overlapping endlessly, sweeping and stirring, and falling from the sky to the ground.
The phantom of the giant beast condensed, baring its fangs and claws, roaring towards the sky, containing endless anger, like an unparalleled monster that has been trapped in the cage of heaven and earth for a long time. Facing the vast scourge of heaven, it still has to fight hard and fight to the death.
"God's punishment, prison!"
Jiang Li's eyes suddenly condensed, and his heart moved.
The ancestral warrior suddenly burst out with a killing move, and his strength soared, almost reaching the level of a peak martial saint, and he was also blessed with the energy and luck of the vast mountains in the far north.
This kind of luck seems to be a kind of blessing and protection from power, but it is also a heavy restraint, lingering and inextricably linked.
"The wrath of the wild sky, the ultimate heaven!"
"The Fist of Chaos!"
Jiang Li took a deep breath, and endless anger suddenly filled his body. Qi and blood surged, and his physical strength increased sixfold.
There are no extra moves, just a mediocre Taizu Long Fist.
The overlapping waterfalls and the ferocious and unyielding beast shadows shattered like ice crystals in an instant.
The violent force shattered by the fist did not leak out at all. It was all directly suppressed by the countless air currents encircled by Jiang Li's fist and dissipated invisible.
The two ancestral warriors flew backwards for several hundred meters, their chests filled with energy and blood, and their whole bodies were numb.
If it weren't for the ice crystal spear in his hand that made a creaking sound and was covered with countless cracks.
The Ancestral Warriors may even have the illusion that they have never taken action.
The three forces that surpassed the Martial Saint level collided fiercely, but there was no power spread and sweep.
This is by no means something that can only be achieved with martial arts attainments and exquisite control of techniques.
It is an absolute crushing in terms of strength.
"Qilinzi, you surprise me. You can possess such physical strength in the semi-saint realm. Even in my clan, no one in the past thousand years can match you!"
The young man in silver robe had a strange look in his eyes and nodded in approval, "Maybe I should reconsider it!"
"Leader, you don't have to be secretive. If I guessed correctly, you had no intention of actually taking back the Shark Artifact from the beginning. Everything just happened was just a test!"
Jiang Li walked past the two ancestral warriors and came to the depths of the hall, looking at the silver-robed man on the Frozen Throne who was completely different from ordinary Kuei people.
"Qilinzi is indeed smart. You have seen through my plan at a glance. It seems that I have to increase the number of times I enter dreams and listen to the mountain god's teachings and inspiration!"
The young man in silver robe was suffocated when he heard the words, and there was some embarrassment on his face as the lie was exposed, but he soon recovered as before and nodded indifferently: "But I didn't lie to you. The Qiong Shark Sacred Artifact is really important to our clan, but it can be compared with the human race." The covetousness and greed are different. I wish it would never appear in the far north.
"If you want to find a suitable owner for it, you must be very careful!"
The young man in silver robe stood up from the throne and walked gently: "First of all, this person's possession of the sacred weapon should be extremely firm and cannot be moved by any external objects.
"Secondly, this person must be very strong. Otherwise, even if the sacred weapon is taken away now, it will be taken away by others in the future, threatening the safety of our clan."
"Boss, the Qiong Shark Sacred Artifact does have the ability to turn ice into water, but the Far North is so vast that even if thousands of miles of glaciers melt, it will soon be frozen again by the extreme cold, and the impact on the Kui people will not be great!"
Jiang Li looked at the silver-robed young man, and suddenly his eyes narrowed: "The leader cares so much about the sacred artifact, maybe there are other reasons!"
"Qilinzi, not only the Qiongsha Sacred Artifact, but also the Kyushu Cauldron and the Four Domains Sacred Artifacts, all pose a fatal threat to our clan!"
The silver-robed young man said calmly: "The cauldron and the sacred vessel carry the destiny of a state and a region, and are the most massive and positive objects in the world. However, our clan contains the blood of ancestors, which is extremely dark and has the most negative aura." .
"Actually, you should have seen a long time ago that people from our clan cannot get close to the sacred artifact. The Qiongsha sacred artifact was suppressed in Chiding Mountain because the man who brought the sacred artifact to the Far North Mountains died nearby. The weapon also fell together, and was suppressed on the spot by Ancestor Yankui with his ancestral weapon!"
"I see!"
Jiang Li nodded, and some of the questions in his heart were finally answered.
In the world of Jiuzhou, yin, yang and five elements circulate, creating and inhibiting each other, and everything is in order.
The Kui people are naturally powerful, and their underlying strength is terrifying, surpassing almost any dynasty or country in the world.
However, the restriction of the ancestral blood in their bodies not only prevents them from staying away from the Far North, but also makes them restrained by the Nine Cauldrons and the Four Sacred Artifacts.
In addition, the focus of competition among dynasties, aristocratic families, and sects has always been in the four regions of Kyushu.
The Far North has always been peaceful.
"Qilinzi, the power you have shown is indeed qualified to control the Qiong Shark Sacred Artifact, but there is still a big gap between you and my standards!"
The young man in silver robe stopped pacing and looked at Jiang Li solemnly, "Therefore, I'm afraid you can't leave the ancestral court again until you meet my requirements!"
"You're trapping me!"
Jiang Li raised his eyebrows.
"For the sake of the safety of our clan, I can only temporarily aggrieve you for a period of time. According to time estimates, troubled times are coming and the world will fall into unknown turmoil. Everything is possible!"
The young man in silver robe said slowly: "And you are in the whirlpool of power and competition. I don't want to see you killed by other strong men not long after you left the ancestral court. After all, it will be difficult for the next controller of the holy weapon to possess you. Neutral attitude toward our clan!"
"Have you spied on me?"
When Jiang Li heard this, his heart suddenly moved, and he suddenly looked at the transparent jade ball in the hands of the silver-robed young man.
Under the refraction of light from the ice palace walls and icicles, various radiant lights and shadows emerge on the surface of the jade ball, and the outlines of many mountain glaciers can be faintly seen.
"This is natural. When you and Yanba appeared in the Chiding Mountains, both the mountain god and I sensed your appearance!"
The young man in silver robe nodded: "Compared with other tripods and sacred weapons, the Qiongshak Sacred Artifact can threaten the existence of the Kui tribe, so I have to treat it with caution.
"If it weren't for your attitude towards Yanba, which made me see many qualities that the human race does not have, the moment you enter the ancestral court, I will awaken the sleeping beast and kill you directly!"
"Wake up?" Jiang Li was a little surprised.
"Qilinzi, there are countless creatures in the world, and humans are not the only race with great wisdom. The intelligence of those strange beasts is not weaker than that of humans!"
The young man in silver robe said slowly: "They ventured into the ancestral court, indeed to extend their lives, but they may not have taken this opportunity to be suppressed by the mountain god's ice.
"Compared with fighting for the treasures of heaven and earth from the hands of the mountain gods, it is easier to freeze them directly. Moreover, in order to prevent those who possess sacred weapons from entering the ancestral court, our clan also needs these strange beasts to protect it.
"When danger comes, I will wake them up and give them the life-extending treasure they want!"
"So, this is why you have the confidence to keep me here!" Jiang Li asked with a smile.
"That's true, Qilinzi. Actually, you don't have to feel upset. Our clan upholds one heart and will treat everyone equally regardless of our own clan or other clans!"
The young man in silver robe said calmly: "You will have the same qualifications as Yan Xiao and Baima. You can practice in the secret place of the ancestral court, enjoy the same resources as the candidate warriors of the ancestral court, and sign a blood contract with a strange beast outside the valley. !”
"It's really hard for me to refuse such a generous offer, but I don't know what your so-called qualification is."
Jiang Li nodded.
He originally had the idea of retreating and cultivating.
The Kui people have occupied the Far North Mountains for thousands of years and have accumulated a profound heritage. There will definitely be many inheritances that are beneficial to the improvement of their realm and the accumulation of heritage.
"Holy Realm, as long as you can reach the Holy Realm, you can leave!"
The young man in silver robe flicked his finger, and a diamond-shaped blood crystal flew out and landed gently in Jiang Li's hand.
"I have one more request, or suggestion!"
Jiang Li looked at the shimmering diamond-shaped blood crystal in his hand, raised his head and said: "The extreme north has been bitterly cold since ancient times, and the living environment is harsh, but it has endless mineral deposits. I am the Lord of Anmang, and the future development of Li Province will require massive mineral deposits and Ride the beast.
"So I want to do some transactions with the Kui tribe. Without affecting the order of the Kui tribe, I can use the living materials needed by the Kui tribe in exchange for some mineral deposits and beast riding. At the same time, I want to know the location of the secret formation to the Qiong Shark Islands."
"Qilinzi, I will tell you the location of the secret formation after you reach the Holy Realm. As for your transaction with the Kui tribe..."
The young man in silver robe smiled faintly: "Unlike the human race, although I am the leader of the Kui tribe, I do not interfere in the daily affairs of the tribe. I will only take action when the Kui tribe is in a life-and-death crisis. The rest of the time is left to each tribe to develop on their own. .
"Quebec people do not trust the human race. They have never had any close contact with the human race for thousands of years. Whether you can reach an agreement depends on your own ability!"
"Thank you, leader, Jiang Li understands!"
Jiang Li nodded.
As long as the leader doesn't object, he is already 80% sure about this matter.
He did not directly fuse the Yan Kui blood crystal, so he was not considered a Kui clan, but Yan Xiao and Zhui Feng were different.
They are the real candidates for the ancestral warriors and have a very high status in the hearts of ordinary Kuai people, second only to the mountain gods, leaders and ancestral warriors.
As long as they come forward and convince some Que tribes, it will definitely not be difficult.
"Qilinzi, I am the leader of the Kuei people, but you can also call me by my name, Yanxi!"
The young man in silver robe stepped forward, stepped down from the throne, and headed towards the outside of the Ice Palace.
Two ancestral warriors also followed closely.
When Yan Xie came to the platform outside the Ice Palace, countless ordinary people had already gathered in the open space in the valley below.
"Meet the supreme mountain god attendant!"
Seeing the appearance of the rock deer, the people of Québec fell to their knees like a roaring tsunami, worshiping devoutly, with burning eyes.
"The Kui people are in danger. The mountain gods have heard your calls. The warriors of the ancestral family are about to go out to kill all evil invaders and restore peace to the sacred mountains!"
Yan Xie raised his arms high and closed his eyes, as if he was meditating. Suddenly, a soft and strange wave emanated from his body and disappeared into the mountains at his feet.
"boom"
Immediately, there were waves of slight vibrations rising from beneath his feet.
Jiang Li looked into the distance, and it seemed that the mountains and the ground within a thousand miles were shaking at the same time.
From the depths of the huge ice castle, ten red light clusters flew out, emitting a hot and dazzling halo, as if they were floating in the sky for ten days.
Within each light group, there is a majestic vitality and a strong and positive aura emanating from it.
The heavy ice mist above the entire valley also turned into raindrops and poured down under the influence of this heat and vitality.
"Roar"
"Ming"
"hiss"
…
On the valley floor, there were also sounds coming from inside hundreds of huge beast shadows sealed by thick ice and snow.
Waves of spiritual soul fluctuations of varying strengths formed ripples and rose into the sky, seeming to want to communicate with the suspended red light group to create induction and connection.
Outside the valley and beside the ice steps, a five-meter-tall ancestral warrior walked out, and the two Kuei men beside Yan Xie also moved at the same time.
Ten ancestral warriors gathered on the plains of the valley, each walking towards a frozen beast shadow.
The ten red light clusters in the sky also flew down one after another and disappeared into the shadow of the beast selected by the ancestral warriors.
"Click"
"Click"
…
The red light group submerged, and the ice outside the beast's shadow, which had been frozen for unknown years, began to crack bit by bit.
The ferocious and violent aura suddenly spread from the cracks. The ordinary people around him felt these dangerous and terrifying auras, and they couldn't help but retreat, trying to avoid it out of instinct.
"Roar"
A beast shadow ice layer suddenly exploded, countless ice cubes shot out, and snow mist rolled up.
A 60-meter-tall ape beast covered in purple gold stretched its body from curling up and stood up.
The tall body is like a mountain peak, and the four red eyes are shining with the joy of rebirth.
At the feet of the ape beast, an ancestral warrior jumped up, grabbed the ape beast's hair and climbed all the way, standing on the ape beast's shoulders, whispering softly.
"Roar"
The Purple Gold Chongming Ape nodded, jumped hundreds of meters with his giant feet, grabbed the mountains on both sides with his arms, jumped a few more times, and disappeared into the vast ice mist.
Only the tremors caused by the heavy body landing and rising from time to time came from a distance and became smaller and smaller.
"Roar"
"Ming"
In the valleys and plains, similar situations are happening one after another.
Powerful beasts of different shapes broke through the ice, roaring and stretching.
Integrated into the red light group, the old bodies of these strange beasts were rejuvenated in a short period of time.
The momentum is getting stronger and stronger, and the body is full and full.
Nine ancestral warriors jumped on them and gave orders.
The strange beasts, whose strength was close to half-step human immortals, jumped up or flapped their wings and flew towards the outside of Zuting Mountain.
What awaits the five great families will be the crazy and ruthless crushing and killing of these powerful beasts.
Jiang Li was at the highest point of the ice steps, quietly looking at everything in front of him, and had a new understanding of the strength of the Kui people in his heart.
If it weren't for the limitations of the cauldron and the living environment, Jiang Li had no doubt that the Kui people in the Far North would have the absolute power to sweep the world.
only……
These Kui people live in the extreme northern mountains, will they really be indifferent to the world forever?
What kind of existence would their so-called mountain god be?
Able to communicate with the spirits of all the Ku people in the Far North Mountains and guide the path to avoid being pursued by humans.
Is this majestic divine spirit really something that living beings can have?
god!
What is God?
Jiang Li shook his head gently and walked slowly down the ice steps. Suddenly, there was a violent sound of wind behind him, and he suddenly turned around.
Boundless destruction and darkness swept across like a storm.
From the depths of the huge ice castle, more than a hundred dark figures fluttered out and turned into a black cloud, rushing in all directions.
Even though it was blocked by thick ice fog, Jiang Li could still see clearly.
These figures flying out from the depths of the ice castle were about five meters tall and had wings on their backs. They turned out to be zombies transformed by Que people.
Flying stiff!
Jiang Li's eyes suddenly narrowed. On these Fei Zong's bodies, he even saw the totem lines that only the Ancestral Warriors were qualified to have tattooed on their skin.
"In my clan, only the warriors of the ancestral family are qualified to keep the corpses!"
Yan Xie's voice came slowly from behind Jiang Li: "Every thousand years, the ancestral warriors, under the guidance of the mountain god, will find and eliminate the clan members who died accidentally and kept their corpses one by one.
"Calculating the time, it seems that the next cleansing is coming soon, but the mountain god has some special feelings for you, and will choose some from the clan corpses accumulated over the past thousand years for you to use!"
