Chaoyang, Xiaoqiao, three or five young people walking together.
"Our fifth-generation emperor is good at everything, but he is too radical and always likes to take the initiative."
A tall young man, dressed in dignified and elegant brocade robes, with a dignified appearance, but unfortunately a bit sallow and thin.
But now when talking about current events, his eyes are still bright and his expression is high.
"Sending an attack can occupy more territory, but the demon king on the opposite side can easily escape. If you can't kill the demon king, it is meaningless after all."
"Li Duan, now you can't even look down on His Majesty the Human Emperor?" His companions joked, "Then what do you have to say?"
Li Duan held his head high and said with confidence, "If it were me, I would hide a few more trump cards, and then release false news to lure the demon clan to take the initiative to attack. Under the human city, the enemy demon king will not escape so easily!"
"You guy, you talk the same thing."
The companions thought this idea was quite good, and when they were about to discuss it, they found that Li Duan's face was getting paler, so they advised again:
"You obviously have an ordinary family, why do you have to spend all your money on clothes? It's better to save money and eat more."
After hearing this, Li Duan immediately stretched out his hand to straighten his collar, flicked his sleeves, and explained seriously:
"No, people rely on clothes and horses rely on saddles. When others don't know me, this first impression is very important. If I don't even have the right outfit, who will entrust me with important responsibilities in the future?"
"We, the qi masters, don't need to strain our bodies. It doesn't matter if we eat a few less meals. If we nourish our qi more, we won't be hungry."
As he spoke, he looked into the distance and thought about the future.
"After I get an official position, I will have to ride a horse and ride a fancy car. I will have to have all the postures I should have. Only then will I look reliable."
The companions wanted to laugh when they heard this, and asked with winking eyes:
"Then what if you were the Human Emperor? What would you do?"
Li Duan waved his hand and said, "If I were to be a human emperor, I would ride in the most gorgeous imperial chariot with pearl curtains, pull the chariot with the most powerful eagle and falcon, and clear the way with dragon flags and phoenix flags. That would be in line with my status."
The teenagers laughed heartily, but Li Duan didn't take it seriously. He followed his companions and stepped onto the small bridge to cross the river.
On the other side, there were some cold eyes, hiding in the darkness, watching the people on the bridge.
"That boy in brocade is Li Duan who stole the Young Master's spot. Just walk over and prick him with the ghost needle."
"First-level Qi refiners can only cultivate Qi. They are so useless that they will die after being pricked."
A few people hiding in the dark were halfway through their discussion when they suddenly discovered that a middle-aged man who looked like a scholar had been standing quietly next to him!
It was so silent that I had no idea when it came.
Several people were startled, and when they were about to take action, their consciousness began to blur, and a sky full of green shadows seemed to rise in front of their eyes...
As soon as Li Duan got off the bridge, a middle-aged scholar wearing a robe came towards him.
The middle-aged scholar suddenly stopped and pointed at his feet, "Sir, there are mud spots on your shoes."
"Ah, thank you very much."
Li Duan quickly squatted down and wiped the shoe surface clean, wondering why he was so careless.
I got up again and wanted to have a few words with this kind man.
The middle-aged scholar just waved his hand and kept walking.
"In the future, you should pay more attention to your steps."
Li Duan nodded, feeling a little strange again. After taking two steps, he looked back and stared at the back of the middle-aged scholar.
"What you said just now seems to have a profound meaning... Could it be that you are reminding me of something?"
He hesitated whether to go over and ask, but the middle-aged scholar turned a corner and his back disappeared at the corner of the street.
At this time, my companions were shouting: "Why are you dawdling, you will be late soon."
"I'm coming."
Li Duan shook his head. He didn't want to say more, and it might not be useful to chase him.
From now on, just pay more attention to details.
There are muddy spots on your shoes, which is a loss of grace. You should not make this stupid mistake again.
Facing the rising sun, the young man chose to continue moving forward, taking long strides, and easily caught up with his companions in front...
In the Third Ancestral Temple, in front of the statue of Fazu, the Sixth Generation Human Emperor, who had not moved for a long time, did not think of this past event.
Because every passer-by in life may be a person without beginning or end...
——
In the hinterland of the Bear Clan, deep in the valley.
The stone tablet hangs in mid-air, slowly rotating, with the four words "Mysterious Land of Ten Thousand Forests" written in the Demon Ancestor's handwriting, flashing with dazzling light from time to time.
In the valley, the Emperor Wu Ming, the Liger Beast, the Bear King... a large number of strong demon clan men gathered in front of the stone tablet, with different expressions, either surprised or wary.
Wanlin Secret Realm is a small space independent of heaven and earth. The legendary place left by the ancient great power has no owner for a long time.
After a long period of precipitation, a large amount of natural materials and earthly treasures have grown in the secret territory, making countless powerful demon clans covetous.
However, the small space operates independently and is not directly connected to the outside world. Every three hundred years, the "passage openings" of the two spaces finally align, allowing free entry and exit.
Before each opening, the qualified demon clan will wait early to accept the interrogation of Emperor Wuming.
After the inspection is correct, Emperor Zun will completely seal off the valley, activate the Demon Ancestor Stone Tablet, and officially open the secret realm.
The whole process is extremely rigorous to prevent strong people from sneaking in and stealing opportunities.
Three hundred years of reincarnation, generation after generation, and no mistakes have ever been made.
Until this time, Wanlin Secret Realm was opened a month in advance.
The mist surged, and Emperor Wu Ming did not speak, but he walked around the valley in circles, and stood in front of the stone tablet for a long time to look at it.
The demon kings from all walks of life were uneasy and realized that the matter might be serious. Even Emperor Zun couldn't figure out the situation.
"Not to mention the secret realm, the stone tablet that sealed the town has also been activated. It is obvious that there are strong people causing trouble outside." A giant python was wrapped around the tree and said in a cold voice while spitting out letters.
Several demon kings looked at each other. An unidentified strong man had already entered the secret realm? So how can we look for opportunities with peace of mind?
However, the liger didn't panic at all and grinned, "If I remember correctly, the space in the secret realm here has become increasingly fragile, and the emperor realm has long been prohibited from entering, right?"
"Then I am not afraid. Under the imperial realm, who can do anything to me?"
When the demon kings heard this, they all cast envious glances.
This liger seems to be fearless, because it is no longer an ordinary demon king. It is said that it has received a great opportunity a while ago and has been promoted to quasi-emperor!
Under the imperial realm, he is considered invincible.
Before, outside the human race border, one on three, there was no fear, it was precisely because of this.
The liger looked at the figure in the mist again, "Emperor, since there are no clues outside, just let me go in first."
"If there is an intruder inside, I will kill him with one bite. If Emperor Zun wants to capture him alive, that won't be a problem."
A response came from the mist, "If you die, Cangling will definitely make trouble with me."
"It doesn't matter, I can send a message to Cangling Emperor, saying that my death was caused by myself and has nothing to do with you." The liger looked disdainful, not believing that there was anything that could threaten him in the secret realm.
Except for the few emperors from the demon race and the human race, it paid no attention to anyone.
"Wanlin Secret Realm is only open for two days at a time, so time cannot be wasted."
After being promoted to quasi-emperor, useful treasures become increasingly rare, and you can only search for them in the best secret realms.
The secret realm of Wanlin has been the focus of Liger's attention for a long time.
This time it was supposed to arrive later, but on a whim, it left the border early and came here first.
As a result, the secret realm happened to be opened in advance.
From this point of view, everything is God’s will.
The secret realm here is specially prepared for it!
The liger licked its fangs, feeling unbearably itchy.
The other demon kings looked at each other again. Since there is a quasi-emperor who is willing to take the lead, they are also a little eager to give it a try...
At the same time, in the secret realm of Wanlin, a slender cyan figure suddenly appeared in mid-air.
Scanning the vast, lush forest as far as the eye can see, he smiled happily and said:
"That's good, that's good."
"This place is destined for me."
