Chapter 970: The Remnants
Stealth technique, this thing, almost all cultivators will. 『』But the vast majority of people just rely on the ancestral formation to change the folding of light and shadow to achieve the effect of stealth, and the effect is especially good when used in the dark.
However, this person's stealth technique was obviously different from the stealth technique in Qin Ruo's cognition, because this person's stealth technique did not have any sense of formation running to disturb the calm true qi, as if it was a natural existence. If it weren't for Qin Ruo seeing the changes in the footprints on the ground, it would have been impossible to find out.
Even, if it weren't for the dust covered here, that person's footsteps were so light, they would never have been noticed.
Seeing Qin Ruo and He Xilin's vigilance, that person's footsteps stopped obviously, and then, without moving, disappeared.
Qin Ruo thought for a moment, popped out a finger slightly, and a wisp of true qi immediately shot out, shooting directly into the footprints of the place where the person finally landed.
The footprints were shot into by the True Qi, and a small cloud of smoke and dust suddenly exploded.
Looking at the smoke and dust that exploded, the trace of that person's disappearance, Qin Ruo suddenly waved his hand, and a stream of true qi seemed to be a wind blowing across the ground, slowly blowing past.
On the ground, the footprints left by him and He Xilin were immediately caressed by this gentle true qi, and all the original footprints were immediately swept away, leaving only a layer of dust.
He Xilin smiled: "I want to see where you fell from." ”
As he spoke, he put the Night Pearl in his hand on the ground, and then, grabbed a handful of Night Pearls, bounced them out one by one, and shot them directly into the wall. Although Qingguangyan is tough, but under his strength, it is still very simple
More than a dozen night pearls shot in succession, coupled with the natural reflection of the glaucomite rock, the light in the passage suddenly brightened. And with the continuous increase of night pearls, the light here has become almost daytime.
If anyone else appears, there should be nothing to hide.
However, what He Xilin wants is not to see the other party, but to see the dust clearly.
"What if someone climbs to the top, or sticks to the wall," Qin Ruo suddenly laughed.
It's not that hard
With the strength of the two of them, it is not difficult to reach out and clasp the Qingguang Rock on the wall, for them, it is not difficult, and for each other, it will not be too difficult either.
He Xilin smiled: "If he dares, I will naturally be happy." My dozen night pearls shoot out, and the position does not affect each other, if he hangs on the wall, or on it, the light will naturally be different from other places. ”
As he spoke, Qin Ruo suddenly slashed forward
Because he found that there was a night pearl in front of him that was blocked
Invisibility, not transparency, even if you turn on the invisibility technique, if there is a light source behind you, it will be blocked by you.
At this moment, Qin Ruo and He Xilin are together, and there is only one possibility for the person who can block the light source in front of them, and that is to the person who comes.
Sure enough, Qin Ruo slashed out, and in the originally empty passage, suddenly an earthy yellow sword qi rose in the air and hit Qin Ruo with a knife.
It was just a knife, Qin Ruo could feel the feeling of fighting with the other party, but the figure of the other party disappeared again.
But this time, He Xilin smiled and said, "It seems that he has withdrawn from the area of the Night Pearl." But since we're here, let's meet up. ”
Then he whispered, "Give me the Dharma protector." ”
Qin Ruo nodded slightly.
He Xilin let out a low snort, and Qin Ruo immediately felt a bone-chilling cold moving forward, but this cold was not an attack, but a manipulation
He Xilin's current strength is enough to manipulate an area within a few tens of meters into a cold area.
The area that He Xilin is currently able to manipulate is extremely powerful, enough to reach a low temperature of two or two hundred degrees.
Whenever the cold air passed, the water vapor in the air immediately condensed into pieces of ice and slowly flew down.
Advancing dozens of meters forward, He Xilin suddenly let out a low shout, and the ice cubes in the area that had been frozen for dozens of meters suddenly slammed down, and then suddenly rushed away, and the entire fifty-meter wide passage was suddenly completely covered.
The originally beautiful ice cubes were all turned into deadly weapons at this moment, roaring in the air and rushing away.
Bingling flew wildly over the white rice, but as if it didn't have any time, it just reached the area of 100 meters in an instant.
He Xilin was already out of breath, and it was really not easy to control the temperature in such a large area to reduce to such a large area.
Qin Ruo had already rushed out with a knife almost at the same time that the ice had stopped, and the area outside that was swept by the cold ice qi was still extremely cold, although it was not a perverted low temperature like minus two hundred degrees, it was just the aftermath, Qin Ruo felt that his true qi was almost about to stop flowing.
On the opposite side, in front of a person's figure, it seemed that a glass was shattered, and pieces were cracked, and then, with a look of consternation, that person watched Qin Ruo swing his knife at him, but he didn't make any movement.
It's not that he doesn't want to move, it's that he can't make any movements at all, the cold just now has completely frozen his body, and in his body, the true qi is almost stagnant, and he can't move at all.
He closed his eyes
Soon he felt a chill on his neck, the next moment he didn't feel anything else, but felt the chill on his neck slowly move away, and the next moment, the dantian and true qi in his body had been sealed, and then he opened his eyes.
Qin Ruo and He Xilin both had a violent heartbeat.
The attack just now, if it fails to strike a single blow, He Xilin will not have any combat power for at least three days
In the past three days, a master who is much stronger than Qin Ruo's strength will have a very difficult result against Qin Ruo guarding a He Xilin who has no strength at all.
Thankfully, this qiē was not out of their control.
At least, the results are good.
Looking at the person in front of him who was only in his forties, He Xilin sat on the ground, then took out a pill and stuffed it directly into his mouth, and without saying a word, he began to recover the true qi in his body that had been drained just now.
Qin Ruo calmed down his heartbeat before he looked at this person and said softly, "Who are you?"
The man looked at Qin Ruo and said nothing.
Qin Ruo smiled slightly: "You are from here"
The man looked at Qin Ruo's smile and suddenly sighed: "You guys, do you have to kill them all?"
Qin Ruo was slightly stunned, and then said, "Perhaps, you are mistaken, we are not your enemies. Well, maybe you know, maybe you don't, I think, I'll say it first, you might be more clear. The Qin Empire, the worldly Great Qin, swept through the Six Kingdoms and unified China, but it fell in a few decades, and then the Han Empire"
"I know the Han Empire. Which emperor is the Great Han now," the man said quietly.
Qin Ruo smiled slightly: "The Han Empire lasted for more than four hundred years and perished. ”
The man was slightly surprised: "It's been more than 400 years, what is the world like now, and I have returned to the Warring States"
"After the fall of the Han Empire, after hundreds of years of division, it was unified into the Sui and Tang Dynasties. The Sui Empire existed for decades, and then the Tang Empire. After nearly three hundred years of rule by the Tang Empire, China was divided again. Fifty years after the split, the Song Empire unified China," Qin Ruo continued.
The man looked at Qin Ruo in astonishment: "Now, what era is it, how long has it been?"
"More than 2,000 years have passed since the Qin Empire, and now the People's Republic of China rules this land." Qin Ruo said softly.
The man was stunned, and after a long time, he said softly: "In the blink of an eye, it's been a thousand years."
Qin Ruo was even more excited in his heart: "You are a Qin person"
The man slowly came back to his senses and looked at Qin Ruo: "If you mean that I am the person of the First Emperor at that time, I am not, I don't know when I am a person until now, I only know that the cold and summer transactions have passed."
The man looked at his hands and feet, and then said, "Two hands and two feet are counted, and the hands and feet have been counted twelve times." ”
Qin Ruo exhaled, fortunately, this person is not a monster
"Now, in the People's Republic of China, whose family is the emperor and whose descendants are still like Liu Bang, but they are just villains in the countryside," the man then asked.
Before Qin Ruo could speak, He Xilin next to him had already opened his eyes: "I can't say a word clearly, maybe you will understand after you go out." But what I can tell you is that no one should harm you. Also, you're here, is there anyone else?"
The man glanced at He Xilin: "What kind of sect are you, you specialize in cultivating the power of ice, this is rare. Alien"
He Xilin was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "I am from Bixiao Palace, and I have been inherited for more than two thousand years. ”
The man's face suddenly changed slightly: "But the Bixiao Palace on the Western Snow Mountain"
He Xilin smiled: "Yes, I didn't expect that we Bixiao Palace, you can still know." ”
The man's face turned ugly: "Western aliens, you"
Qin Ruo saw that things were not very good, and hurriedly said, "He is not a Western alien. Today's land in China has already surpassed the Qin Empire several times, and thousands of years later, we are already the people of China. ”
"The people now are all the people of Huaxia, then I'm Qin," the man looked back at Qin Ruo.
Qin Ruo nodded: "After the establishment of the Han Empire, it was subdued, and the land was several times larger than that of the Qin Empire. Lay down the prestige, and future generations call us Han people. But now, people prefer to call us Chinese. Whether it is the Qin people or the Han people, we are now called Huaxia people. ”
The man nodded slightly: "Bixiao Palace, at that time, I was just a small sect with no more than a hundred people, specializing in the power of ice. But it's in the land of the people."
As he spoke, he glanced at He Xilin.
He Xilin laughed: "Thousands of years of changes, Baiyun Canggou, have changed too much. ”
"You are," Qin Ruo couldn't help but ask.
"I am a descendant of the Montessori clan, and until now, I am the only one, and I am the only one, and I am wished." The man said slowly.
Qin Ruo couldn't help but be a little disappointed, there was only one person left
"Then when we found this place, this place was already in ruins, and later we found out that there was an underground palace here." Qin Ruo asked.
The man exhaled slowly: "This is the remnant of General Zhang Han's defeat. ”
Qin Ruo and He Xilin were both taken aback: "The remnants of the Qin people are ordinary people who are not cultivators."
"Yes and no. This place was originally the Praetorian Guard of the First Emperor, guarding this place, and planned to open up this place as the mausoleum of the First Emperor. However, according to the statements that remained, many people believe that although the First Emperor is the emperor of the world, he is not qualified to enter the land of the heavenly realm, and finally the First Emperor's Praetorian Guard, escorting some of the craftsmen who built the mausoleum to arrive here, was originally to be sent back to the mortal world, but because of the frequent wars in the human world, they were not able to return for the time being, but then it was delayed, and when the first emperor died, the Han Empire was established, and a group of remnants of the Qin State cried and begged under the gate of the heavenly realm, and the gods of the heavenly realm sighed how strong the people were, and took them here. Because once a year in the heavenly realm there was a flood and a storm that they could not live, they opened up this underground city for them to live in. ”
