boom!
The scorching flames surged up, but dissipated in an instant under the blanket of cotton-like clouds.
Under this breath of flames and clouds, there are two huge beasts intertwined with each other, constantly bursting out majestic tides of underworld energy.
The Grand Prime Minister of the Cambrian Dynasty, Zhuzhao!
One of the three sacred beasts that protect the country in the Blood Red Empire, the Charming Insect King!
At that time, Chi Shang's soul-split projection finally came to the depths of Zhulong Ridge, and the first thing he saw was this scene.
Although he is not very familiar with both of them, Shi Chishang's memory should be that both Zhuzhao and the Charming Insect King are male, so even though he has gone through ups and downs and prides himself on being calm, at this moment he looked at the two giant beasts. The scene of them entangled with each other is still a bit irritating.
But soon, Shi Chishang discovered something strange.
Unlike the charming insect king who was full of energy and kept roaring, Zhuzhao kept his eyes tightly closed from the beginning to the end, and even Shi Chishang couldn't sense any soul fluctuations from him, just like the huge Zhulong body, Just a dead thing.
"Zhu Zhao is dead?" Shi Chi Shang was slightly startled, his heart full of shock, "How is that possible?"
In the Santu River Basin, the strongest ones are Li Shimin, Li Hanwu, and Xiu Jie, the three late Emperors of the Underworld. They are closely followed by Kong Le, the Grand Master of the Holy Tang Dynasty, Zhu Zhao, the Grand Priest of the Han Dynasty, and Leli, the Grand Priest of the Han Dynasty. They are all in the middle stage of Emperor Underworld, and can be regarded as the top five peerless experts in the Santu River Basin.
However, now, Zhuzhao, who was worthy of being ranked among the top five, died in Zhulong Ridge without any sound, and was even being "whipped to death" by the Charming Insect King...?
"wrong!"
Shi Chishang used the Avenue of the Soul to promote the method of insight. After observing from a distance for a while, he finally got some clues.
It seems that there is no soul fluctuation in Zhuzhao's body, but in fact, his consciousness has not dissipated, but is wrapped in dreams one after another, and the other party's aura seems to be extremely weak, as if he has been severely injured before.
Just when Shi Chishang had some realization, his heart suddenly stirred, and he subconsciously used Fugue to hide to the side. The next moment, the place where he stood before was directly distorted. Space, rock, and time were all in this area. Everything turned into a ball of paste in an instant and scattered on the ground.
"It's you?"
A sharp and piercing sound slowly sounded. Shi Chishang, who had just stood still, looked up and saw the charming insect king who was roaring in the distance. At this time, he turned his head and stared at him. The majestic meditation was even more... It was intertwined with endless dreams, flooding towards him from all directions.
"Senior, why do you need to be like this? After all, Prince Shenmei and I are from the same sect!"
Shi Chishang stood there with a wry smile and did not cast a spell to dodge. The opponent was the Emperor of Hades who specialized in illusions. There was no need to use this trick on his own. Anyway, it was just a projection of a divided soul, and it would not matter much if it was consumed.
The Charming Insect King couldn't help snorting coldly when he heard the words, but the dream that enveloped him also stopped temporarily, and said coldly: "If you don't stay well in Shengtang, why do you come to Hanwu? And I and Wang'er have already returned to Hanwu. Wu, don’t come here to make friends!”
Seeing that he didn't take action immediately, Shi Chishang felt a little relieved and asked: "Is that Hanwu Grand Prime Minister Zhu Zhao? Is he dead?"
"Haha, it's just like death, and he will really die in a few days," the Charming Insect King sneered, "Are you here to find him?"
Shi Chishang nodded and said, "Yes! I want to ask him why Emperor E will marry Abe Taka."
"Why did Emperor E marry Abe Eagle?" The Charming Insect King looked at him suspiciously, "You are a holy son of the Onmyo Sect, and it is none of your business to get married!"
"Of course it's none of my business, I'm... huh?"
When Shi Chishang was about to reveal the relationship between the two, he suddenly felt a sharp pain between his eyebrows. Suddenly, the Great Thousand Mirror embedded in the talisman array suddenly shone brightly, enveloping wisps of pure soul light that shone in his heart. He didn't know when All the charming light that diffused in was dissipated.
"Fuck!" It was only at this moment that Shi Chishang suddenly realized that he had fallen under the illusion of the Charming Insect King at some point. If the Great Thousand Mirror warning had not been activated, he would have completely fallen into the illusion spun by the other party.
This Charming Insect King is indeed a giant who is good at illusions. His spiritual power is simply terrifying. Even though he possesses the Soul Dao, he has mastered it without even realizing it.
Compared to Shi Chishang, the Charming Insect King was even more surprised. A mere ant descendant who was at the peak of the Underworld Emperor was able to break free from his own illusion. Such a talent made people hate him to the core!
As soon as the jealousy surged in his heart, the eyes of the Charming Insect King burst out with scarlet red light, and the huge soul power turned into a substantial torrent and surged towards Shi Chishang.
"Bye bye!" Seeing the torrential waves falling from the sky, Shi Chishang smiled and raised his hands, and then dispersed the soul-parting projection on its own, turning into foam and floating away in the sky.
Outside Zhulong Ridge, Shi Chishang, who had just dispersed the soul-splitting projection, immediately took up the escape light and wandered away across a hundred miles.
As soon as his front legs were far away, there were roars from the depths of the mountains behind his feet. The surging spiritual power turned into countless tentacles and spread crazily outside the mountains. However, the movement of the Charming Insect King was half a beat slow after all. Couldn't intercept it in time.
"Ah! If you dare to escape from my hands, just wait for me, ant!"
The Charming Insect King, who failed to succeed, almost lost control. He frantically activated his dark and spiritual power, shattering the void and tearing the earth apart. In a matter of seconds, all the ground hundreds of miles away from Zhulong Ridge collapsed, and it was as dense as a spider web. Void cracks filled the entire world, exuding a heart-stopping chill.
After a long while, the Charming Insect King calmed down and gritted his teeth and said: "When I take away the Zhuzhao Dao Fruit, I will capture you even if I go to heaven or earth, and skin you and remove your bones!"
*——*——*
"Hiss! What a heavy resentment!"
More than a thousand miles away from Zhulong Ridge, Shi Chishang couldn't help but shiver. Even though he was far away, he could still feel the deep-seated resentment originating from the giant.
"As for...as for it?" Even though Shi Chishang was worried about Yu Lewei's situation and felt solemn, he was also shocked by the overwhelming resentment. He didn't do anything, right? Why would the Charming Insect King be so resentful of him?
"Huh? Is this the breath of Hong's little insect?"
Lexue Lion Axe poked his head out from the blood-red divine ring and said in surprise: "Have you met him?"
"Yes!" Shi Chishang nodded, and he laughed and said: "It seems that you are resented by him, take care of yourself! This little bug has a narrow temperament, and he likes to hate others, especially people like you. A proud man with outstanding qualifications is more likely to attract his hatred."
"I%*%)¥!" Shi Chishang was speechless for a while, then rubbed his eyebrows for a long time, and said helplessly, "I am the hope of the future of Lixue Hall, and now I am being targeted by Hades, why are you still so stubborn? Looking happy?"
Lixue Shiaxe's laughter stopped, and he coughed quickly: "Sorry, I'm used to it..."
Shi Chishang sighed, explained the scene he just saw, and asked: "Based on your understanding of him, what was he doing just now?"
"Well, actually I don't know much about him, I'm not very familiar with him," Li Xue Shiaxe said with a smile, "When I accompanied that bastard Jianguo, he was still a little sixth-order Ming Zun. Later I... well, anyway After that, he stayed in Lixue Hall, and that’s when he started to rise, but he was very jealous of others, so even I heard about it.”
Shi Chishang rubbed his forehead with a headache and sighed: "Okay! You can go back first."
Lexue Lion Axe chuckled and retracted the blood-red divine ring.
"Zhuzhao is in a bad situation," Shi Chishang stepped high into the sky and murmured after reviewing everything he knew so far, "It seems like the senior sister's marriage has nothing to do with him, or in other words, he and the senior sister have nothing to do with each other. Likewise, he is also a victim of this series of things, so the only way now is to see the senior sister first. I hope there will be good news from my brother!"
While he was thinking about it, Shi Chishang felt the jade slip slip was slightly warm, so he took it out and read the message from Bai Qi.
He and Bai Qi had exchanged message slips before, and when he saw the other party's news, Shi Chishang frowned and asked in confusion: "Tomorrow at twenty-four and seventeen, thirty-eight miles from the west gate of Yougong District? What does it mean?"
After putting away the jade slip, Shi Chishang's figure flashed. After moving several times, he had crossed hundreds of miles and returned to Youdu.
Summoning Chen Xueyi again, Shi Chishang used his identity as the lord of Blood Blade City to enter the city smoothly, and then wandered around until he met Bai Qi again.
Seeing him coming back, Bai Qi breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "Have you found anything in Zhulong Ridge?"
"Yes!" Shi Chishang glanced around, first waved his hand to hold up a soul light that blocked prying eyes and eavesdroppers, and then told in a low voice what he saw in Zhulong Ridge.
"Charming Insect King? Zhu Zhao?" Bai Qi's long eyebrows frowned slightly, and a slight solemnity appeared on his handsome face. "They are all males. They must not be... well, are they trying to seize the body?"
"Seize the body?" Shi Chishang was slightly startled, then an idea flashed in his mind, "Seize the Dao Fruit?"
"The Dao fruit of the early stage of Hades Emperor and the middle stage of Hades Emperor?" Bai Qi raised his eyebrows in surprise, then shook his head and told the reason for the message just now.
It turned out that the message was obtained from the cloud-like figure after he returned to Tianji Hall.
Tianji Hall specializes in selling all kinds of information, and the transaction method is very unique. Everyone who enters Tianji Hall knows how much wealth they have with them. If the value of the information exceeds the wealth of the guests, then the figure will refuse to answer. .
However, what makes Bai Qi secretly confused is that as long as the information is related to the Hades Emperor or even the disputes between various forces, the figures will refuse to answer. However, their previous two questions were obviously aimed at causing conflicts, but Tianji Hall Still willing to answer, and even gave them free tips the first time.
Inexplicably, Bai Qi looked at Shi Chi Shang and had an idea: "Could it be that my sworn brother has some relationship with Tianji Hall?"
Shi Chishang was completely unaware of his sworn brother's wild thoughts. As Bai Qi said, this was the answer he got after asking how he could meet Yu Lewei. And this sentence obviously included time and place. It seems that they need to go to the thirty-eight miles outside the west gate of Yougong District at twenty-four seventeen tomorrow, where they can have an opportunity to meet Yu Lewei.
"No matter, I don't think Tianji Hall will trick us for no reason," Shi Chishang thought over and over again, but still couldn't hold it back and said in a deep voice, "Tomorrow we will find a place to stay near there, and then I will send out the ghosts Project it over there and take a look at the situation first!"
Bai Qi nodded silently. They were not familiar with each other in Youdu, and this was all they could do now.
