Calculated, it happened about seven or eight thousand years ago. At that time, the witchcraft was at its most glorious and prosperous. At that time, the leader of the witchcraft was the Gu God Clan, and under it there were top forces such as the True Witch Tianmen that could rival the seven sects.
And because the Wu Dao monks are united, the overall strength of the Wu Dao is far greater than that of a single immortal sect.
Later, during the Great Dao Era eight thousand years ago, the witchcraft began to weaken. It was not until the last Great Dao Era came that it could be said to have reached the bottom.
The world of cultivation is the most cruel. The witchcraft that is no longer brilliant naturally cannot occupy too many cultivation resources. All the witchcraft monks have migrated to the southernmost area of the Middle-earth Divine Continent.
The natural environment there is harsh and evil miasma is everywhere, so the witchcraft monks can only huddle there to thrive.
This time, the southernmost area of the Middle Earth Heaven Continent was also called the Witchland, and there were only witchcraft monks on it.
Just like this time when the Great Dao Era opens and auspiciousness descends, only the Gu God Clan has descended on a pair of Gu God's true bodies in the entire Witchland, and their destiny has still not been established.
Of course, this is superficial. In this situation, no one can say whether there are other forces in Wu Di that are auspicious.
If non-superpowers can usher in great fortune, the auspiciousness that comes is often silent and will not be known to too many people.
This may also be a "protection method" of heaven's luck.
Otherwise, if other forces can be forcibly spied on at will, then as long as the five sects and seven sects join forces to overthrow the other forces that have good fortune and auspiciousness, wouldn't it mean that the country is forever solid?
But obviously this is impossible. The rise and decline cannot be done by such a group of people.
It all depends on the luck of each sect and the cards will be reshuffled.
From this perspective, the outlook of the spiritual practice world on the land of Shenzhou has always been positive.
Because the so-called class barriers are very difficult to form, every time the Great Era comes, there will always be a dark horse emerging and climbing to the top of the food chain.
This is the real charm of the Dao Era. The world is undecided, but it is possible for you and me.
It's just that this process is naturally bloody. Some people will go up and others will go down. The fate of the force that goes down can be imagined.
Just like the five sects and seven sects that are currently in a group on the surface, as long as one force declines in this Great Dao Era, the other forces will directly change from allies to sharers.
After understanding the magical power, Xu You gathered his thoughts and rushed towards the destination with concentration.
When the sun was setting, Xu You came to a remote village with almost no aura.
This is the northernmost area of Jiuyou County. There is a large plain with no mountains and rivers. Large areas are lacking in spiritual energy.
Therefore, only a large number of people make a living by farming here.
Very few cultivators will survive in this area. There are only sporadic first-level and second-level monks and low-level monks who live a happy life here as guests of landlords and wealthy people.
Xu You looked at the village cautiously. The village was quiet and smoke could be seen everywhere.
Xu You stopped in a woodland outside the village, clasped his hands together, and a black cloud slowly appeared in the sky. This is Lietian Clan's communication technique.
Soon, in Xu You's perception, a fifth-level monk came quickly towards this side and appeared in front of him in an instant.
It was none other than Lei Ze, another monk in the early stage of the Fifth Realm from the Lietian Sect.
The moment he saw that the person coming was Xu You, Lei Ze's expression suddenly changed and he looked at him with extreme vigilance.
"I was ordered by Master Lu to give you something, the core inheritance of the founder of your sect, Da Gu Zhenren." Xu You casually threw the book left by Da Gu Zhenren to Lei Ze.
"It's a matter of loyalty to someone entrusted to me. I've given you my things and that's it. Farewell."
After saying that, Xu You got on the flying boat and was about to leave.
"Xu Shaoxia, wait a minute, may I ask how my senior brother is doing now?" Lei Ze asked aloud.
"Killed by those two demon cultivators." Xu You replied.
Lei Ze's face darkened slightly, even though he knew that Lu Tianming didn't have much chance of survival.
"May I ask, young hero, why was it you who sent me the gift?"
"I can't tell you the details. In short, the mountains are high and the rivers are far away. You should take care of yourself. I suggest you escape far away from home." Xu You fisted.
"Wait a minute, young hero." Lei Ze called out to Xu You again. After a few changes in his expression, he made a decision that went against his ancestors.
"I, the Founding Patriarch of the Lietian Sect, Da Gu Zhenren, was once the core disciple of the True Wu Tianmen, which means that this inheritance is also one of the core inheritance avenues of the True Wu Tianmen.
Lei Mou only needs to make a copy of it and then give it to the young hero. "
"Huh? What do you mean?" Xu You looked at the other party in confusion, "Do you think I have already seen it? Xu is an open person.
I haven't read this book at all, and I have no interest in Gu Tao. "
"Lei didn't mean that," Lei Ze shook his head and said, "The young hero inherits the Kunlun Immortal Sect, so naturally he has no interest in Gu Dao, but this is not an ordinary Gu Dao.
There are many branches of the Gu Dao. The master used to take the path of cultivating Gu, and he would only choose one of his own Gu insects for the rest of his life. It can grow simultaneously with its owner.
The mind is connected and the drive is like an arm. Back then, Master Ancestor traveled across the Divine Continent and finally selected the Gu insect that was most suitable for this avenue to grow together.
Yin erosion Gu. This Gu is good at space escape and comes and goes without a trace. After being cultivated, its magical powers are ever-changing and its combat power is extremely astonishing.
This Yin Erosion Gu is currently rare in the Divine Continent and is almost extinct. Back then, Master spent decades and was lucky enough to obtain two young eggs, one of which he refined by himself.
The remaining one has been passed down to this day without anyone refining it, so now Lei gave it to the young hero. "
With that said, Lei Ze took out a dark thumb-sized black egg and handed it to Xu You.
Xu You didn't answer, just looked at the other party with a frown.
Lei Ze added, "The Dao of cultivating Gu is one of the most peaceful Gu Dao and can be used for concurrent training. The young hero can only study the Gu cultivating part. Although the Gu cultivator will be weaker in the end, it will not affect him." avenue.
With this Yin Erosion Gu, it must be of great help to the young hero. "
"These two things are the foundation of your Lietian Sect. What is your purpose in giving them to me?" Xu You asked.
Lei Ze's face darkened slightly, "Now, what's the difference between the Lietian Clan and the Death Clan? If I rely on myself alone, I don't have the confidence to pass on the Lietian Clan.
By then, what use will the treasure be, no matter how precious it is? Lei boldly asked the young hero to help Lietian Clan in times of crisis when the Great Dao was achieved in the future.
Of course, this help is within the capabilities of the young hero. "
Xu You's eyebrows relaxed slightly, knowing what Lei Ze was thinking.
There are only two or three kittens and puppies left in Lietianmen now, and he is considered a big leg.
Although the current strength is weak, the background and room for growth are here, and Lei Ze can be regarded as the kind of person who invested in advance.
"You just trust me so much?"
"Young Hero was entrusted to travel thousands of miles to send my family and inherit my legacy. He acted with such righteousness. Naturally, Lei believed that Young Hero was a just and magnanimous person and was willing to trust Young Hero." Lei Ze clasped his fists heavily.
For Lei Ze, this choice is the best one he can make now, even though Lu Tianming had planned to get rid of Xu You and other Xianmen disciples together before.
But now things failed and he paid the price with his life.
What Lei Ze wants to do is not the so-called impulsive things. He needs to pass on the Lietian Sect so that he can live up to Lu Tianming's sacrifice.
And being able to turn hostility into friendship with Xu You and even establish a closer relationship is what he dreams of.
Xu You's current pattern and character are enough for him to make this bet.
Xu You pondered for a few times, and finally nodded, "That's okay, but I can't guarantee it. I can only say that I will help you within my ability."
"That's enough, Lietian Clan everyone thanks you young hero." Lei Ze's face was happy, he immediately made a copy of the book in his hand, and then handed the original and the Yin Erosion Gu's egg to Xu You.
Xu You took these two things calmly.
Just when he was putting the things away, Lei Ze suddenly stretched out the index and middle fingers of his right hand and thrust them heavily into his eyes.
His eyes were forcibly removed, and blood and tears flowed freely.
Then, he kneaded with both hands and slapped his Tianling Cap with his right hand. An expression of pain suddenly appeared on his face, and he even suppressed a roar in his throat.
Xu You's expression changed drastically, and he had no time to stop him.
"What are you doing?"
After a while, the pain on Lei Ze's face slowly disappeared, he casually threw away the two eyeballs in his hand, and then smiled casually,
"After all, Lietian Clan is branched off from Zhenwu Tianmen. Previously, it could survive until the complete inheritance of the master was found. But now the core inheritance of the master is now available.
If Zhen Wu Tian Clan knows about this, there is a high probability that Lie Tian Clan will no longer be able to continue to exist in this world. Lei cannot guarantee when they will come to the door.
What he can do now is to destroy his eyes and then cut off all the information about this book in his soul. Of course, Lei will also erase everything about Young Hero, and will not let anyone find out anything about Young Hero through my soul. "
To be honest, Xu You is very shocked now.
He was greatly admired for Lei Ze's decisive behavior. It was really rare for Lietian Clan to be able to do this.
Xu You admitted that he would never be able to do this on his own, but that didn't stop him from admiring those who could.
Splitting the soul is extremely harmful to the soul. It can cause serious injuries that will not heal, or destroy the foundation and cause a sharp decline in cultivation.
It can only be said that both Lu Tianming and Lei Ze left a deep impression on Xu You. Small sects also have the pride and belief of small sects.
He's a man.
"Elder Lei, don't worry. If Lietian Clan needs help in the future, Xu will do his best." Xu You solemnly held his fist again,
"As long as you send the message to Zhuque Peak and leave the word Tianlie, Xu will know what it means and will contact you automatically."
"Thank you, Shaoxia Xu." Lei Ze, who was dripping with blood and tears, clasped his fists freely. The reason why he did this was not to win Xu You's trust again, "Shaoxia Xu, Lei must leave first. In his soul, there are two things about these two things." Before the traces disappear completely, I have to finish the final instructions."
"Okay." Xu You paused on the spot, watching the other party's desolate back.
Under the general trend, even if a small person fights to the death in the waves, he will not be able to stir up much waves, but it does not hinder the dazzling effect of this wave when it blooms.
Lei Ze escaped from the small village all the way and finally came to a huge cave as quickly as possible.
At the moment, all the core disciples who escaped and some elders of the Four Realms are here.
When they saw Lei Ze's miserable situation, they all couldn't help but gathered around, each with their own words.
"Quiet, listen to me. From now on, there is no unified destination. Everyone is divided into five teams and divided into parts to go in all directions.
It is up to you to decide where to go. Remember, from this moment on, each of you will shoulder the inheritance of Lietian Clan. Live on and pass it on.
Keep a low profile outside, don't reveal your origins, spend your whole life dormant, waiting for things to change. The overall situation of the world is now about to change, and this is also the best opportunity for us. "
Lei Ze's order was unquestionable and absolutely authoritative. The elders immediately left with a group of disciples.
"Xiao Li, you stay here first." Lei Ze left a girl behind, his tone became kind and friendly.
The girl named Xiaoli was dressed in black and had witchcraft makeup on her face, but it was not difficult to see the outstanding facial features hidden underneath.
"You are the most talented disciple of Lietian Clan in thousands of years. The headmaster has always placed high hopes on you, so only you can take on the responsibility of reviving Lietian Clan.
Now I have three things that you need to remember for life. "
Lei Ze took out the book and handed it over, "First, you should inherit the great path of the ancestor. This is the most core and complete path left by the ancestor.
From now on, you will concentrate on cultivating this avenue. With your talent, you will definitely be better than others.
The second thing is, after leaving here, you sneak alone and don't trust anyone. Go to the core area of Wu Di, which is the area governed by the Gu God Clan.
From now on, you can practice there with peace of mind, without making enemies or exposing the power of the Dao. If you have no choice but to eradicate the root cause, don't let anyone know that you are practicing this avenue.
Thirdly, if there is any trouble that cannot be solved in the future or involves life and death, go to the Kunlun Immortal Sect and send a message to Zhuque Peak with the word Tian Lie, and someone will naturally come to help you.
Remember these three things. "
"Xiao Li has written it down." The girl's voice was clear and she looked at Lei Ze hesitantly, "What about you, uncle?"
"Uncle Master has other things to do, so go ahead without further ado. Remember, your own safety is the most important thing, so be careful."
As Lei Ze spoke, he held up his right hand, and a gust of breeze sent Xiao Li out of the cave.
The girl looked at the light outside in a daze, and then looked into the cave. She knelt down and kowtowed gently, then solemnly put away the book and sneaked out of the place.
In the cave, Lei Ze breathed a long sigh of relief, and the blood and tears on his face had dried up.
He sat cross-legged on the spot, and the thoughts about inheritance and Xu You in his mind finally dissipated completely, leaving no trace.
The sun sets and the moon rises, and the moon sets and the sun rises again.
When the sun rose the next day, Lei Ze still remained motionless in his meditating posture.
Suddenly, there was a slight fluctuation in the air.
Then a golden Gu worm swam out from inside, and two people sat on it. They were the two elders of Zhenwu Tianmen who had appeared on the ruins of Lietianmen before.
The two of them looked at Lei Ze below with cold eyes.
The blinded latter finally slowly moved his body, stood up and looked at the two uninvited guests.
He couldn't see the two of them, but he seemed to know who they were. Lei Ze wiped the corner of his mouth with a smile and felt some sunshine falling on his body.
He no longer hesitated, stretched out his hands, slapped his chest with his right hand, and slapped the location of the divine palace with his left hand. He died instantly, with both body and soul destroyed.
The two elders of Zhenwu Tianmen looked at Lei Ze who slowly fell to the ground with some astonishment. They did not expect that Lei Ze would commit suicide suddenly and so decisively.
However, the two of them did not panic. One of them directly reached out to take the corpse and forcibly gathered Lei Ze's dissipated soul.
Then he immediately used his secret technique to search for Lei Ze's soul.
After a while, the man slowly put away his magical power, and with a pale face, casually threw Lei Ze's body into the mouth of the Gu insect beneath him.
The golden Gu worm opened its sharp mouth full of fangs and swallowed Lei Ze's body in one gulp, making an intrusive chewing sound.
"Have you found anything?"
"There is no useful information. His soul is incomplete and part of the information has been completely erased."
"The two demon cultivators can't be found. Now the sect has spent a lot of money to figure out where the Lietian sect's remaining veins are hiding. If nothing is found, I can't explain it to the sect."
"Who would have expected that the monks from Lietian Sect would be so tough on words. But I think that if he could do this, it might be related to the True Witch Dzi Bead.
Either that or he has obtained the complete inheritance of Da Gu Zhenren. No matter which point it is, it is the top priority. I think there is a high probability that it is the latter, and the True Witch Dzi Bead should not be in this person. "
"The Yu Gu Avenue involves the top secrets in the door. This time the Great Dao Era comes, the Yu Gu Avenue will be the foundation of our sect, and it must not be allowed to wander out."
"Then what happens next? After all, the True Witch Dzi Bead is a divine bead, and its location cannot be determined at all. Now that all the clues have been broken, where should we start?"
"Secretly keep an eye on the disciples of Kunlun and Jianzong who were present that day, and continue to ask Menli to divine the location of other remaining veins of Lietian Clan.
The whereabouts of the two demon cultivators continue to be traced. "
"That's all we have to do."
The two said no more, the golden Gu worm under their feet once again escaped into the void, and the cave returned to tranquility.
Zhuque Peak.
Xu You was stretching in his Taoist hut, basking in the warm morning sun. He didn't know that after being separated from him yesterday, Lei Ze died violently just now.
I don't know that I am now involved in some secret things in the witchland in another way.
Little did he know that the inheritance of the True Witch Dzi Bead and the Great Gu Master in his hand were so important to the True Witch Tianmen.
At this moment, he was twisting the black Gu egg in his left hand, and flipping through the Gu Manual in his right hand.
This is Xu You's first exposure to the art of witchcraft and Gu, and it is still the core path of witchcraft and Gu that is extremely difficult to get started with.
It is like reading a book from heaven, you cannot understand it at all. I don't know anything about the various professional terms in it.
After watching it for a while, Xu You gave up the idea of studying it by himself now.
It's okay if he studies hard. With his IQ, it's okay to spend a lot of time, but this is to sacrifice the good to the last.
At the moment, he must be focusing on his own path. How can he spend a lot of energy on the path of witchcraft? Xu You knows this well.
【Ten thousand updates! 】
