In front of the grave, Yang Xiao and the butcher said goodbye to Lao Li and returned to the road.

Ryoma was killed, the carriage was destroyed, and the two could only go to the imperial capital by themselves, fortunately, their cultivation was not bad, the butcher flew into the sky, and Yang Xiao took a walk in the void and followed behind the butcher.

Fortunately, Yang Xiao is already in the soul seed realm, and he can absorb the spiritual energy all the time and replenish the spiritual sea, otherwise, he will have to stop and rest after flying for a few hours, which will delay the journey too much.

......

A few days later.

Two high mountains that go straight into the sky come into view, the mountains do not see the top, standing on the earth, Yang Xiao and the butcher fell from the sky, standing on the avenue.

The two walked along the avenue between the two mountains, the mountain is nameless, but this place is very famous in the Great Zhou, it is said that thousands of years ago, there was a prince, rebelled, when the prince almost broke through the imperial capital, although the rebellion was put down by the Holy Ancestor afterwards, but also let the Great Zhou royal family be wary of the princes of the eight directions, especially in the eight directions to establish eight heavenly passes, guarding the eight domains.

This place is the Zhentianguan that guards the heavens.

The two mountains were a master who was about to break through the earth ancestor at that time, imagine the condensation of great mana, there are thousands of formations on the mountain, mortals step in, instantly turn into ashes, even if the immortals enter, within a moment or three, they will have to die.

Yang Xiao looked at both sides of the avenue in surprise, it stands to reason that this place is the way to the imperial capital from the Heavenly Domain, and there will definitely be many people passing by, but the two of them walked for a long time and didn't see a single person.

He said, "Uncle Tu, something is wrong. ”

The butcher stopped, looked ahead, and said with a solemn expression: "There is something wrong, could it be that the Holy Ancestor wants to kill me." ”

Zhentianguan is a great Zhou land, and without the order of the Holy Ancestor, no one dares to do anything here.

The butcher put his right hand on the handle of the pig-killing knife and stepped forward, "You wait here, I'll explore the way." ”

Yang Xiao stopped in place, looked at the butcher's back, and gradually disappeared into his eyes, after a while, he frowned, this place is not too far from Zhentianguan, according to the butcher's footsteps, this time is enough for him to walk back and forth.

Walking forward, the qi of the earth's leylines within a radius of thousands of miles in Zhentianguan was locked by the original earth ancestor with a formation, and he could only walk towards Zhentianguan on foot.

Not long after, a bronze Xiongguan appeared between the two mountains, the Xiongguan is thousands of meters high, like an ancient demon beast crawling on the earth, guarding one side.

The gates were closed, there was no one around, and there were no soldiers on the walls, and he saw the butcher a kilometer from the gates.

"Is there an enemy?" Yang Xiao stepped forward and asked.

Zhentian Pass is a great place, and it should be guarded by an army of cultivators, but at this time, it is like an empty city, which has to make Yang Xiao wary.

The butcher shook his head and said, "I don't know, go in and have a look." ”

As soon as the words fell, the butcher swung his knife and slashed towards the city gate, and the leyline qi gushed out, forming a yellow light shield, blocking the butcher's knife from a hundred meters away.

The butcher's expression became solemn, there was no one in the city, and the guard array should be closed.

Yang Xiao's eyes narrowed slightly, looked at Zhentianguan, and glanced at the city wall, suddenly, his pupils shrank, and there was a black-robed man standing on the city wall at some point.

The man wore a mask of a half-ghost, half-Shura, with two blood-red fangs sticking out of the mask's mouth, as if it was dripping blood.

The most important thing is that he did not know when this man appeared on the city walls.

The butcher also found this person, the expression on his face became more solemn, the pig-killing knife on his waist vibrated endlessly, and the sharp knife involuntarily emitted, and the weeds in front of the city gate were attacked by the knife and fell in pieces.

"This face is a little familiar, as if I've heard it somewhere. The butcher said, "Who are you?" ”

"Dark God. "The sound of silence floating down from the city walls, this man's voice is very young, but there is a dead silence in his ears.

"Ben Hou remembered, ten years ago, the Tongtian Sword Immortal killed the Dark God in Linxian City, and some people rumored that the Dark God wore this kind of mask before he died, but the mask was broken. The butcher remembered a rumor from a long time ago.

"The old mask is broken, so naturally we have to replace it with a new one. The masked man said.

"Listen to the voice, you are very young, at this age, you can become an immortal, for thousands of years, only the Tongtian Sword Immortal can surpass you. The butcher said this person's realm.

Yang Xiao was horrified in his heart, he didn't expect this person to be an immortal king, that is an existence that stands proudly at the pinnacle of the world, throughout the Great Zhou, there are only a few gods who can suppress this person, and those people are all existences that have lived for tens of thousands of years.

The butcher looked around, there was a dead silence, and he continued: "Before you die, can you tell me who sent you?"

The mask is humane: "Great Zhou Zhenlong." ”

Hearing this, the butcher's figure shook, took three steps back, and said: "Holy Ancestor, Holy Emperor, or the prince known as the Great Zhou Shuanglong, no, Holy Ancestor wants to kill me, there is no need to be so troublesome, the Holy Emperor does not have the courage, the prince is ambitious, it is a little possible." “

A trace of contempt flashed in the masked man's eyes, and he flipped his hand and held a black spear, two meters and a half long, the head of the spear was stained with blood, but it never dripped off.

Yang Xiao was shocked when he saw the head of the gun, he had seen this gun, it had destroyed the right arm of Chen Juyuan, the seventh patriarch of Xiaoyaomen, and it was the Taishi of the Great Zhou who took this gun at that time.

The name of the gun kills the gods!

He looked at the masked man, who was none other than a member of the Luo family.

looked at the butcher, his expression did not fluctuate, as if he had already guessed that the other party would take out the god-killing spear.

After the masked man took out the god-killing spear, he disappeared from the city wall, as if the whole person had melted into the void, and his breath and trace could not be found between heaven and earth.

Yang Xiao took out the sword of killing immortals, vigilant around, at this time, he was a little regretful to follow, the other party was an immortal who was good at assassination, he was by the butcher's side, and became the butcher's weakness, once the other party used him as a breakthrough, the butcher would be defeated.

He hated himself a little bit for being too weak in this matter, looking back at all his means, although he could kill people beyond the ranks, but in front of an immortal, he was still too weak.

He said: "Uncle Tu, if you can escape, just run away, leave me alone." ”

The butcher shook his head and said, "I can't go, and I don't want to go." ”

The void fluctuated, and the god-killing spear came straight towards him, Yang Xiao was horrified in his heart, the last thing he wanted to see happened, the other party took himself as the target and forced the butcher to show his flaws.

The butcher pulled out the pig-killing knife, and with a single slash, the masked man melted into the void again.

Yang Xiao breathed a sigh of relief, his eyes fell on the pig-killing knife, and his pupils suddenly shrank, this pig-killing knife, although the one used by the butcher before, was also an immortal weapon, but now that the pig-killing knife was broken, the luster that should have belonged to the immortal weapon has also disappeared.

"Uncle Tu, use my sword. Yang Xiao handed over the Immortal Sword, there was no pig killing knife, and the butcher's strength was less than half of what it was in its heyday.

The butcher shook his head and said, "I can only use the knife technique, the knife technique of the pig killing knife." ”

Looking at Zhentianguan, the butcher's gaze seemed to be able to penetrate Zhentianguan and see the prosperous imperial capital in a distant land.

The masked man struck again, falling into the void above his head, pointing directly at the butcher, who slashed with his knife, destroying and injuring people, and piercing the butcher's palm with a godkiller spear, the latter struck out with a palm, and the masked man retreated into the void.

Blood dripped down the butcher's palm, he glanced at Yang Xiao, and finally looked in the direction of the imperial capital, and said with a miserable smile:

"I, Tu Tianjiao, have been frank all my life, and since I practiced, I have never killed a good person by mistake or done a bad thing.

After the sealing, the governance of the heavenly domain was in an orderly manner, looking at the eight domains, who has the prosperity of my heavenly domain, and who has the tranquility of my heavenly domain.

Looking at Tu Tiancheng, if any wicked person dares to do evil things, I Tu Tianjiao will let him eat the evil consequences.

But why did Da Zhou treat me like this, face or right, hehe, ridiculous.

Since you won't let me live, why don't I slaughter the heavens and turn the heavens, and when I return to the world, I will slaughter the evil in the world with one sword. ”

"Uncle Tu, what are you talking about?" Yang Xiao nervously grabbed the butcher's arm, a bad premonition rose in his heart, and he thought of the conversation after Lao Li's death.

He saw the butcher's face, there was no expression at all, and the nearby aura suddenly froze, and the masked man came out of the void, his steps unsteady, as if he had been forced out by someone.

The masked man looked at the butcher in shock, and the boundless aura gathered from all directions, and the surrounding aura was viscous like a liquid that penetrated into the butcher's body, and the latter's aura soared at a speed visible to the naked eye.

A small crack appeared on Yang Xiao's hand, and this aura seemed to belong only to the butcher, and the others approached, like a knife cut.

Rumble!

Several heavenly thunders fell, and the two mountains shone with colorful light, which was the large array in the mountain that was awakened, and wanted to block the thunder, countless large arrays were smashed, and the rolling stones fell violently, separating the avenue in half.

"Uncle Tu. Yang Xiao said, he let go of the butcher's arm, the aura around him was already too much for him to bear, and if he didn't let go, his right hand would be destroyed in the aura storm.

The butcher turned his head to look at him, and it was an expressionless face, with no emotion in his eyes.

The butcher raised his right hand, an obscure power condensed in his hand, the aura storm stopped, and the butcher held a white bone pig killing knife in his right hand.

"The name of the knife years. The butcher said, without a trace of emotion in his voice, and swung his knife at the masked man, "Time is like a knife cutting through the sky." ”

The masked man was horrified, and he lifted the god-killing spear to block his chest, and the knife flew away, leaving a pale white mark on the god-killing spear, and the masked man slammed into the city wall, spitting out a mouthful of blood.

"You're not a butcher. The masked man said uncertainly, got up from the ground, and flew towards Zhentian Pass.

The butcher held up the years, but the next moment, he stopped again and looked at the sky with a blank face.

Yang Xiao looked at the masked man who fled, and sighed secretly that it was a pity, the butcher didn't know what happened in the end, if he slashed again, the masked man would be seriously injured if he didn't die.

Suddenly, the world darkened, like the world at twelve o'clock in the night.

"Could it be that this world also has a tengu eclipse day? Yang Xiao whispered, looked up at the sky, and grabbed a huge black-haired hand that covered the sky.

"Uncle Tu, run. Yang Xiao pulled up the butcher's right arm and wanted to drag him out of this place, but once the black-haired giant hand fell, this place would be razed to the ground.

"The fruit of the Tao has been opened, and I will live forever in this life. A voice came from behind the black-haired giant hand.

"It's not ripe, it's useless to pick it. A giant claw poked out of the void and slapped the black-haired hand away.

"Hmph. The owner of the black-haired giant hand snorted coldly, "Old thing, you are not dead, if the Dao fruit is ripe, it is not something that we can pick." ”

The giant claw vanished, leaving a word before leaving.

"Unripe Dao fruit, what is the use of you and me, ripe fruit, at least let me have a glimmer of hope. ”

The black-haired giant hand stopped in the air, bent his fingers, and a black hair floated down, and said: "In ancient times, my clan was almost wiped out, and I will charge some interest today, and when I reach the peak of Er, I will kill you in time, take Erdao fruits, transcend time, and live forever." ”

The black hair is just a trace of hair for the black-haired giant hand, but in Yang Xiao's eyes, it is like a hundred-zhang black python, falling with monstrous ferocity.

The butcher stepped forward with his knife and slashed at the black hair, which turned from black to white, and fell from the sky, crushing a high mountain in Zhentianguan.

The butcher put the knife into its sheath, and a wisp of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.

Yang Xiao swallowed his saliva, what a terrifying power this is, the butcher is now an immortal king, and the weapon in his hand can leave marks on the god-killing spear, this kind of combat power has surpassed most immortal kings in the world.

But a single hair of the black-haired giant hand can hurt him, and with only residual power, he can collapse a mountain that is high into the sky.

He didn't know how strong the god was, but he felt the aura of transcending the Holy Ancestor in the giant hand.

"Uncle Tu, where are you going?" Yang Xiao looked at the butcher, who flew towards the sky, heard his shout, looked back, and still had no emotion on his face.

The butcher left, leaving no words, as if he had become another person.
