The Great Emperor of the East China Sea looked at the backs of Xu Yang and the others who turned around, stunned. The gold-embroidered rhubarb cloak behind him hung weakly behind him, and the scale pattern on it was like a small insect that was so hungry that it had lost its strength, soft and soft. At this moment, he looks a little numb on the outside, and he is at a loss for what to do.

After a moment, he took a deep breath. The saltiness of the sea breeze stimulated his nostrils and throat, and pulled his dazed thoughts back to reality in an instant, like a gluttonous beast, smelling the blood that made his instincts irresistible.

"These people are my prey, I am the master of the Great Palace of the East China Sea, the master of the entire East China Sea, how can I easily bear this kind of failure?" The Great Emperor of the East China Sea asked himself in his heart, and a pair of old eyes flashed like a blade with murderous aura.

"Ten years ago, I was seriously ill and my body was decadent......"

His mind jumped to ten years ago.

The Great Palace of the East China Sea stands on a huge island in the depths of the East China Sea, and the entire palace is built on the mountain, like a giant looking down on the boundless East China Sea in front of him, majestic and domineering.

In a large bedroom in the palace, on the sunny side, the sun shines weakly through the window lattices and curtains, scattering decadent spots of light and jumping shadows.

The Emperor of the East China Sea was lying on the sickbed, and his whole person was like a soft face.

His hair was in a messy bun, his face was pale as paper, and his breath was as weak as the curtain hanging from the bed.

"Is there really no cure for my illness?" said the Emperor of the East China Sea with a pair of old eyes that were already a little cloudy, looking up blankly, his eyes scattered, and he said weakly.

Next to the sickbed, in addition to two dignified-looking maids wearing scaly Jiao costumes, there was also an elderly imperial doctor of the East China Sea Grand Palace who knelt on the ground.

"The sinner is incompetent, the sinner is incompetent. The Imperial Physician looked like he had a knife to his neck, his face was extremely ugly, and as he spoke, he slammed his head against the hard ground. It seemed as if he could get out of the ground by punching a hole in the ground.

"Chief Imperial Doctor, you just said that I am afraid that my Yang Shou only has half a year left. The emperor can't die for the time being, so you all go out and let me stay alone for a while. The Great Emperor of the East China Sea said as loudly as he could. His tone revealed the stubbornness and arrogance of the pair of royal horns on his forehead that had never been weak.

After hearing this, the two personal maids and the chief imperial physician bowed down in unison, and the departing maids sighed softly, then pushed the door tightly with both hands, and stood outside the door on duty.

The great imperial doctor walking on the corridor walked tremblingly, like the grass and trees that were about to fall in the autumn wind, shaking his head while walking, his back lonely.

......

In the room, only the lonely Emperor of the East China Sea was left alone and the trivial, dark shadows cast by the sun.

"I can't die yet, although I have seven sons, none of them have pure Scaly Jiao royal blood. If I fall, there will not be a qualified heir in the entire Scaly Jiao Royal Family, and the Scaly Jiao Clan will eventually fall. Thinking like this in his heart, two lines of old tears crossed the face of the Great Emperor of the East China Sea.

"I'm not reconciled. The Great Emperor of the East China Sea said to himself. The voice was not loud, but it was a cry from his heart.

In his life, he has shed tears only a handful of times, and he has never shed tears in front of any outsiders, he is the master of the East China Sea.

There was a "squeak", and someone pulled the door that had been closed open from the outside.

"Who is it? Didn't I say I'm going out?" said the Emperor of the East China Sea a little angrily, and cursed in an inappropriate language in his heart: "See if I can't do it? If you dare to go against my will, no matter who it is, I will cut off your head, and this is the price of offending the emperor." ”

"It doesn't matter who I am. Importantly, I can cure your condition. The tone of the person who came was not in a hurry, he was generous, his footsteps were as silent as a ghost, and before the words fell, the person had arrived at the sickbed of the Emperor of the East China Sea.

"Listen to the tone of a stranger. The Great Emperor of the East China Sea thought to himself. At this moment, he even struggled to turn his head, and swept it with the corner of his eye, only to see the hem of the placket of the visitor's clothes, which was a purple-black robe, with dark patterns on the edges of the robe, and a pair of black leather boots with a unique style underneath, and the toes of the shoes were proudly cocked. It is not the style of wearing of the scale Jiao clan in the Great Palace of the East China Sea, nor is it the style of the common Zhongyuan Continent.

Eccentric people, angels or demons.

"Who are you, why didn't you come uninvited?" the Emperor of the East China Sea was still a little skeptical of the words of the visitor.

"Don't worry, if I'm here to kill you, do you still have a chance to speak? The world is so big, no matter where the sun goes, there will be shadows. You can call me the Shadow Master. The person who came said generously.

A stranger stood in the vicinity of the Great Emperor of the East China Sea, talking to him condescendingly, which made him feel a little uncomfortable.

"Shadow Master?, the name has never been heard of. Thinking about whether the other party was friend or foe, the Great Emperor of the East China Sea still replied politely: "I'm not feeling well, there is a seat over there, please sit down and say." ”

"No need, I have a pill here that can save your life, you can take it. As he spoke, the purple-clothed man who claimed to be the Shadow Lord flipped his wrist, and a purple pill only the size of a soybean appeared out of thin air, and automatically levitated in front of the eyes of the Great Emperor of the East China Sea like an elf.

It was a pill with a smooth surface like jade, with five purple-gold spirit patterns, each of which was shaped like a miniature deer, jumping on the surface of the spirit pill, full of vitality and a sense of life.

"The five spiritual patterns are the Xuanpin elixir. ”

The Great Emperor of the East China Sea blurted out, his eyes were full of hope, and the tips of his fingers couldn't help but hook a little, if his body was free, he would definitely grab this Xuanpin Spirit Pill with five spiritual patterns in his hand.

The top-grade spirit pills all have three spirit patterns, which are already very valuable. And the best elixirs with four spiritual patterns are all collectibles in various sects. As for the legendary Xuanpin elixir with five spiritual patterns, the legend is that they are all imitations of the elixir in ancient times, and each one has unexpected effects.

The person who claimed to be the Shadow Lord stretched out a finger and pointed towards the elixir suspended in mid-air, and a purple spiritual light fell on it, and the elixir was as crystal as a gem.

The five "fawns" on the surface of the elixir became more realistic, cheering and jumping, as if the gods reappeared.

The next moment, the purple elixir turned into a purple light and shadow, which directly submerged into the lips of the Great Emperor of the East China Sea.

The Great Emperor of the East China Sea didn't even have time to savor the taste of this pill, and the power of the pill had already turned into a warm trickle, straight into his abdomen, traveling around the eight veins and five internal organs.

Comfortable, like a spring breeze.

The Emperor of the East China Sea has a physique that has dried up like a long-arid land and is rejuvenated.

His eyelids closed comfortably, his breathing became more and more forceful, and the dreams in his mind appeared in his head, which were his childhood memories.

A child of seven or eight years old, with a face similar to the Emperor of the East China Sea, and a pair of sharp horns in his first birth, stood on the shore of the East China Sea and shouted: "When I grow up, I will become the master of the East China Sea." ”

The sound is vibrant, stirring the surface of the sea and dancing the waves full of life.

......

I don't know how long this dream lasted, but the Emperor of the East China Sea opened his eyes. As soon as he turned around, he deftly got out of bed. Not only did the sick body recover, but even the cultivation took half a step forward.

The person in front of him, stretched out tall, was wearing a dark purple robe, the hat on the robe was very large, the brim of the hat covered half of his face, and the dark shadow cast made it impossible to see the face and age of the person who came.

"Such a powerful divine sense, it can easily cut off my vision, so that I can't see his face clearly. The Great Emperor of the East China Sea said in surprise.

Then, he said respectfully, "Thank you Lord Shadow for the gift of medicine." ”

At this moment, in the eyes of the Great Emperor of the East China Sea, this Shadow Lord is the god sent by the God of the East China Sea to save his life. If he wasn't the king of the Great Palace of the East China Sea, because of his identity, I'm afraid he would have already bowed down.

"It's nothing, you just took a Ziyuan Pill, it just increased your longevity for twenty years. Whether you can change your life against the sky and live for a few hundred years depends on your future creation. The shadow lord said in a light tone.

The words of the Shadow Lord were like an invisible needle piercing the long-dormant heart of the Great Emperor of the East China Sea, and one of his hearts was like an excited bird, constantly flapping its wings.

"Puff, puff......" The strong and powerful heartbeat seems to be back to the age of twenty. As a person who crawled back from the brink of fall, there was nothing more coveted by the Great Emperor of the East China Sea than Shou Yuan, which was a hundred times more precious than the treasures in the entire Great Palace of the East China Sea combined.

"Is there anything I need to do, please make it clear to the Shadow Master. "The old eyes of the Emperor of the East China Sea suddenly brightened like a pair of night pearls, stirring up the darkness and peeking into the light.

Shou Yuan.

Light.

Bright.

Long-cherished!

"I gave you twenty years of life, and I don't need any reward from you for the time being. In these twenty years, I will do a big thing in the Zhongyuan Continent. At that time, as long as you cooperate with me to carry out an operation, and lead the East China Sea Hundred Clans to take the opportunity to attack the Zhongyuan Continent and divide their forces. Perhaps, when the time comes, I will give you a better elixir, and I wish you to break through the bottleneck of cultivation. If your cultivation can break through from the Daoming Realm to the Heavenly Tribulation Realm, it should increase your longevity for hundreds of years. The shadow lord said in a flat tone. It seems that the elixir that can break through the Heavenly Tribulation Realm is just a matter of fingertips for him.

The Great Emperor of the East China Sea, who had always been stable in the city, was a little uneasy, and his eyes swayed excitedly from side to side in his sockets, as if the elixir that could help him break through his cultivation was right in front of him.

"Is there really such an elixir? Maybe what the Shadow Lord said is true, and I can be miraculously healed, that's the truth. Thinking in his heart, the words of the Great Emperor of the East China Sea to the shadow lord became even more determined.

"I believe that Lord Shadow has great ability, but if you want me to mobilize the East China Sea Hundred Clans to help, I'm afraid that you have to do a big thing to dominate the entire Zhongyuan Continent. This is not something that one person, or a few people, can do. The Zhongyuan Continent has stood tall for thousands of years, and no one has yet been able to completely rule it on their own. The Great Emperor of the East China Sea asked tentatively.

"Do you doubt my strength? I may be only one person now, but I may be thousands of people in the future. You have to believe that where the light can reach, there will be traces of darkness. After speaking, the shadow lord flipped his wrist and handed a square purple wooden box with a unique pattern carved on the surface to the Emperor of the East China Sea.

"What's in this box?" the Great Emperor of the East China Sea respectfully took the box with both hands, and then asked.

"Just take it, if one day, the matter between you and me is exposed in advance, you can open this box, it can help you kill people and defeat opponents you can't defeat. But if you don't have one, don't open it. The Shadow Lord said in a flat tone.

After speaking, without waiting for the Great Emperor of the East China Sea to answer, a ray of purple spiritual light swirled around the Shadow Lord's body.

In the flickering purple light, the Shadow Lord was gone, as if he had traveled to another world.

The Great Emperor of the East China Sea looked at the place where the Shadow Lord disappeared and was suspicious. Then he carefully looked at the purple wood box in his hand to confirm that it was not a dream, and then with a smug face, he carefully took the box into his arms.
