Chapter 8 Half a year

"I know what you want to say, but you have to know that it is not uncommon for a Heaven Rank Ninefold master to appear on the continent, and once an opponent of this level appears, we have no power to resist at all. ”

Saying that, Ling Xu had already switched the ancient characters in front of Guo Chen into several figures, these people Guo Chen didn't know, but he could deduce that these should be masters who had reached the ninth level of the Heavenly Rank.

"The Nightmare Clan has the ability to circulate autologously, and their cultivation speed is very fast, but because the use of the Nightmare Pupil will cause damage to the body, almost none of them can live to be over thirty years old. ”

Guo Chen carefully looked at the person in front of him, if he was no more than thirty years old, then Guo Chen would definitely not be able to believe it.

Seeing Guo Chen's movements, Ling Xu said with a wry smile: "I should be the longest-lived in the Nightmare Clan, but I am also the slowest cultivator of the Nightmare Clan." ”

Guo Chen's eyes almost didn't fly out, Ling Xu was all considered a waste material, so what was he before, although he knew that all the people of the Nightmare Clan were talented, but he didn't expect that Ling Xu's level was actually the weakest.

"I only have the fifth level of the earth level, and basically every nightmare clan can cultivate to the heaven level, and I am indeed the weakest. ”

Seeing that Guo Chen was so shocked, Ling Xu still explained slightly, but after hearing this, Guo Chen's face did become more and more gloomy.

"Wait a minute, so to speak, the two exercises you just gave me, the weaker one can allow me to cultivate to the Heavenly Rank, and the stronger one definitely wants me to try to impact the Nine Levels of the Heavenly Rank. ”

"Sometimes it's not good to be too smart, you and he won't be bound by the law to a certain extent, and it's the most likely to accomplish this goal. ”

Ling Xu said, pointing to Shen Xuan behind him, Guo Chen immediately thought of what he said before, Shen Xuan had an aura that did not belong to this world, thinking of the law he said before, Guo Chen had roughly understood.

"It doesn't matter, the important thing is that you awaken the purple-black nightmare pupil, which means that there will be a disaster, I said before that the blood color comes out once in a hundred years, and the purple-black color comes out once in a thousand years, but this is just a summary, after all, we can't accurately calculate when the last inheritor died. ”

"I see, you mean that the Nightmare Clan is responsible for guarding the order of the continent, and that's not wrong, but this is only with the existence of the purple-black Nightmare Pupil Inheritor, and at other times, your mission is to do everything possible to help the inheritor who will appear reach the Heavenly Rank Ninefold. ”

Guo Chen said his understanding, looked at Ling Xu, and wanted to confirm whether what he said was right, but he ignored a question, if it was the same as what he said, then why did the blood color exist?

"The law I just talked about actually has its own thinking, it can't tolerate too many people breaking through its own shackles, so every thousand years it will cause a catastrophe to happen on the continent, so that the number of people on the continent who may break through will be greatly reduced, and at this time, there will be the inheritance of the purple-black nightmare pupil that comes into being. ”

"No, there's a problem with this, there's a problem with the logic of what you're saying, according to what you say, are we on the side of the law, or are we fighting against it?"

Guo Chen raised this question, according to what Ling Xu said just now, the Nightmare Clan helped the law to maintain order on the continent on the one hand, and on the other hand, it was unreasonable to break free from his shackles.

"There is no problem, these two are not in conflict, as long as we have a clansman who has reached the ninth level of the Heavenly Rank, we can replace the law, it is dispensable in itself. ”

At first glance, Guo Chen still felt that what he said was right, but after thinking about it carefully, he found that this was just a little more lofty about seeking power and usurping the throne.

If it was really as Ling Xu said, the Nightmare Clan really produced a Heaven Rank Ninefold Master, then it would become the new master of the Xuling Continent, and then the law would be dispensable.

"And you must know that the fundamental purpose of us coming up with a strong man is not to break free from the shackles of the law, but to better maintain the order of the continent. ”

"So, what should I do?"

Guo Chen now understands that he is simply part of the Nightmare Clan's plan, and since he crossed over, he has no way out, because he has a spare tire next to him.

He can only be obedient and improve his strength according to this plan, at least for now, if he is not obedient, Ling Xu can directly kill him and find a way to make Shen Xuan the new inheritor.

"In the past six months, you just need to work hard to cultivate. ”

"And what about half a year later?"

Guo Chen continued to ask, Ling Xu had said at the beginning that he only needed to cultivate here for half a year, but Ling Xu never mentioned what happened after half a year.

"Don't think about what will happen in half a year, cultivate hard, we have succeeded, and you will benefit the most. ”

After speaking, Ling Xu lifted the illusion technique, all the characters in front of Guo Chen disappeared, and Shen Xuan slowly opened his eyes.

"Next, you can start the actual combat practice, you have to try to create the illusion space, you have to try to crack the illusion space. ”

When Ling Xu said this, the whole person turned into a cloud of smoke and dust, dissipating into the air, Guo Chen was dumbfounded, he didn't realize that he was actually in an illusion now.

......

In the center of the continent, there is a splendid city, which only the most noble people can enter, this is the nominal ruler of the continent, the territory of the imperial family - the imperial city.

At this time, the imperial city had fallen into a panic, because the little princess of the royal family had disappeared mysteriously, and the entire imperial city had been under martial law to prevent the little princess from being taken out of the imperial city.

On the Zhuling Continent, not everyone is able to cultivate, only a small number of people are able to cultivate spiritual power, and there are still many people on the continent who cannot cultivate.

Although their individual strength is not strong, but there are many of them, if they get out of control, the continent will fall into chaos, so someone must be responsible for leading them, and the royal family exists for this.

"The Imperial City is under martial law, and I don't know what happened. ”

On a mountain peak near the Imperial City, a young man was staring in the direction of the Imperial City, so far away, it was absolutely impossible for ordinary people to see what was happening in the Imperial City.

"What do you say, hurry up or you'll be late. ”

A man of similar age next to him patted him on the shoulder and asked.

"Nothing, let's go. ”

As he spoke, the crimson in the young man's eyes gradually dissipated, and he turned around and spoke.

Time flies, half a year has passed quickly, the imperial city has been lifted, but the little princess has not been found, although the royal family is still looking for her traces, but still found nothing.

"Will we just go in or go up the back hill this time?"

Near the Baqi Sect, two teenagers were observing the terrain, it was Guo Chen and Shen Xuan, they had already completed the task assigned to them by Ling Xu, and they were planning to go to the Baqi Sect to inquire about information at this time.

"Of course, we entered from the back mountain, we were in a hurry, and it was faster to leave from the main entrance, but now we should try to be as safe as possible. ”

Guo Chen answered Shen Xuan's question just now, in fact, Shen Xuan just asked casually, there was no need for him to answer so seriously.

"Someone. ”

Shen Xuan just wanted to go around the back mountain, but was stopped by Guo Chen, in terms of perception ability, he was much stronger than Shen Xuan.

"Who?"

Shen Xuan followed the direction he pointed, reached out and grabbed a person from behind the grass on the side with his spiritual power.

Guo Chen took a closer look and found that it was a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl, and although the clothes she was wearing were very expensive, there were dirt everywhere and some holes.

"Damn, you're too obscene, arrest people, what are you doing to harm people's clothes?"

"Don't talk nonsense, I'm in control, that's what she is. ”

Shen Xuan immediately denied that he had done it, and then his face turned serious again, and he asked, "Keep it or kill it?"

This is near the Yaqi Sect, in case this girl is a disciple of the Yaqi Sect, then they will be directly exposed, don't think about inquiring about information.

"It's not from the Yagi sect. ”

With the improvement of spiritual power, the improvement of Nightmare Pupil's thinking ability is becoming more and more obvious, and now Guo Chen's IQ has far surpassed that of ordinary people.

"Girl, who are you, and why are you here?"

Guo Chen directly leaned in and asked, he had already observed, this girl didn't look like she had spiritual power, even if she did, it would definitely be very weak, and it was impossible for her to be the opponent of the two of them.

Shen Xuan on the side was not as easy as him, and he had already taken out the weapon that Ling Xu had given him from the Scroll Realm, a narrow and slender iron sword with a dark body.

The girl didn't speak, just stared at Guo Chen in front of her, forcing him to not activate the Nightmare Pupil, so he could only hand over his life to Shen Xuan behind him.

Guo Chen only has the ability of the Pupil of Nightmare, he can't activate the Pupil of Nightmare, he doesn't have any combat power, he is just an ordinary person.

The three of them were in a stalemate for a quarter of an hour, and Shen Xuan finally couldn't help it, and injected spiritual power into the iron sword, and blue light began to glow on the iron sword.

"Stop, don't kill innocents. ”

Guo Chen turned his head to look at Shen Xuan, a purple light flashed in the pupil of his left eye, and three big characters appeared in front of Shen Xuan's eyes.

"With Background"

Shen Xuan immediately withdrew his spiritual power, indeed, looking at her dress, there should be some background, if Shen Xuan destroyed her at this time, they wouldn't want to wander around the mainland casually in the future.

"Girl, where is your home, do you need us to send you back?"

Guo Chen still adopts a policy of communication, and it is a trivial matter to be investigated, I am afraid that there will be guards around, and they will be arrested immediately as soon as they make a move.

The girl finally spoke, and said, "I...... I do not know. ”

"Well, girl, do you know why you're here?"

He then asked again, if he wanted to know how to deal with her question, he had to determine whether there were guards around her, and it was definitely not possible to ask directly, he could only ask so vaguely.

"I was kidnapped. ”

This time she answered very simply, but it aroused Guo Chen's suspicions, one second she was struggling, and the next second was so crisp, it was probably a draft typed in advance.

"And what's your name? Let's see if we can help you find a home. ”

As he spoke, he gestured to Shen Xuan behind him, indicating that he was not sure whether what she said was true.

"My name is Jiang Xueyan. ”

This time she answered unhurriedly, and what she said should be true.

"I think you've heard that name somewhere, do you remember?"

He deliberately turned around and asked, and at the same time released his illusion technique, and presented a few words in front of Shen Xuan.

"I don't know my identity, I can't do it, so I give up investigating. ”

Shen Xuan re-included the iron sword in his hand into the volume realm, and threw the volume realm to Guo Chen.

"Girl, if you don't come with us on the road, we'll see if we can help you find home. ”

This is Guo Chen's last temptation, if she doesn't agree, it proves that there are people nearby, they can retreat quickly, if she agrees, anyway, they are going to apply for the exam, it doesn't matter if they take her or not, anyway, depending on her strength, she will definitely not be able to pass the entrance test.
