Chapter 8: Drinkwater (2)
The Puang Empire was founded for a very long time, as early as 8,000 years ago, and the entire Puang Empire lasted for nearly 3,000 years before it was finally destroyed. The territory of the Puang Empire back then is the sum of the territories of the Holy Alliance and the Dark Alliance today.
So to speak.
The 12 kingdoms and 32 principalities west of the Warcraft Mountains used to be the territory of the Puang Empire, so it is conceivable that the territory of the Puang Empire is vast.
However, the Puang Empire had long since perished.
"More than 5,000 years ago?" The old man with white hair was slightly stunned, and then sighed, "I can't accurately feel the passage of time in the Earth Ring, but I didn't expect that when I came out of the Earth Ring, the old country has passed away for more than five thousand years. ”
"Grandpa, what did you say? I'm confused. ”
Lin Lei felt that his head was confused at this time, and the old man in front of him suddenly appeared and said that he was the Sacred Demon Master of the Puang Empire who destroyed the country more than 5,000 years ago, is there anything more bizarre and ridiculous than this?
Lin Lei even wondered if he was dreaming.
"Little one." The old man with white hair looked at Lin Lei and said with a smile: "This ring on your chest is the artifact 'Earth Ring' that I used back then. ”
"Slow, slow!"
Lin Lei immediately raised his head and said: "What earth ring, this ring on my chest, but the ring left to me by my family's ancestors, it is called the ring of the coiling dragon!" ”
"The Ring of the Dragon? Was it originally called the Ring of the Dragon? The old man said in surprise.
Lin Lei was stunned.
"Original name, what original name?" Lin Lei looked at the old man suspiciously.
The old man laughed at this time: "Oh, this dragon ring should be the name you gave, or the name of your ancestors." Speaking of which...... When I first discovered this ring, I searched all kinds of information and couldn't find its name, and then I took matters into my own hands and named it 'Earth Ring'. As for its original name, I don't know. ”
"Oh, old man, you also made it yourself, then now it's mine, I'll name it 'Ring of the Coiling Dragon'." Lin Lei is very stubborn.
"Okay, okay, it's called the Ring of the Dragon." The old man said with a smile, and did not argue with Lin Lei.
"Grandpa, you said, what the hell happened when you came out of the Ring of the Coiling Dragon?" Lin Lei continued to ask.
The old man smiled and said, "In the year 4280 of the Magnolia calendar, I ......"
Hearing this, Lin Lei was secretly shocked in his heart: "4280 years? It's 9990 this year. ”
"In the year 4280 of the Magnolia calendar, I met my old adversary, the Sanctuary Magister 'Hamlin', and we fought each other. I didn't expect that there would be a Sacred Realm powerhouse who was secretly attacking me...... In the end, I was defeated, and I did not want my soul to be captured and tormented by my enemy, Hamlin, so I proclaimed my soul in the ...... of this earth, the Ring of the Dragon. The old man slowly told the story of the year.
"The Ring of the Coiling Dragon is very magical, it doesn't seem to have the slightest breath at first glance, but its effect is to catch up with the artifact. I professed my soul in it, and Hamlin they searched for so long, and they didn't find me, and they also lost this ring of the dragon. The old man said with a smile.
Lin Lei nodded secretly.
At first glance, the Ring of the Coiling Dragon is indeed very ordinary, and Lin Lei, as the heir of the ancient family, also has some eyesight.
Generally, treasures have some elemental breath. But the ring of the coiling dragon is like a withered log.
"Old man, you said that more than 5,000 years ago, you were attacked by a Sacred Domain Magister and another Sacred Domain powerhouse, and finally proclaimed yourself a soul in this 'Ring of the Coiling Dragon'? And this dragon ring is still a treasure comparable to an artifact? Lin Lei concluded.
"Yes." Seeing that Lin Lei understood, the old man couldn't help but smile and nodded.
"Then old man, how did you get out of the Ring of the Coiling Dragon?" Lin Lei looked at the old man suspiciously.
The old man smiled and explained, "Actually, when I sealed my soul in the Ring of the Coiling Dragon, I also became a soul in the Ring of the Coiling Dragon. Anchored in the Ring of the Dragon, I will never be able to come out of the Ring of the Dragon unless someone becomes the owner of the Ring of the Dragon again. ”
"Become the master of the Ring of the Dragon?"
"Yes, it's the blood dripping on the Coiling Dragon Ring." The old man laughed.
Lin Lei frowned, and muttered, "Blood dripping on the Coiling Dragon Ring?" Frowning and thinking for a while, Lin Lei suddenly remembered that when he was smashed into a wound on his head by a stone, the blood stained his clothes and neck red, and it was estimated that he was also dyed on this coiling dragon ring.
"Oh, then I'm the owner of the Ring of the Dragon." Lin Lei nodded.
"Yes, you become the master of the Coiling Dragon Ring, so that I can come out of it and feel the breath of this Magnolia Continent again." The old man also had a smile on his face, "By the way, little guy, I just told you my name, what is your name?" ”
Lin Lei smiled brightly: "My name is Lin Lei, Lin Lei Baruch!" ”
"Lin Lei, a good name." The old man said with a smile.
"Old man, are you going to be bound by the Coiling Dragon Ring forever and can't regain your freedom?" Lin Lei was a little unbearable.
The old man smiled and nodded: "Lin Lei, you must know that after ordinary people die, their souls will enter the underworld!" And after I died at that time, because I was a Sanctuary Magister, my spiritual power had already become a substance. I was able to resist the call of the underworld for a short time, and take the opportunity to seal myself in the Ring of the Dragon. And there is only one way for me to get out of the Ring of the Coiling Dragon - to consume all my spiritual power. ”
"Consume all your mental power?" Lin Lei was a little puzzled.
"Spiritual power is a human term, and the undead also call it 'soul power', when the spiritual power is completely consumed, the soul will automatically dissipate. Other words...... When my soul is dissipated, it is the time to break away from this ring of the dragon. The old man said indifferently: "But it's okay now, although I can't leave the Ring of the Coiling Dragon for three meters because of the constraints of the Ring of the Coiling Dragon, but it's still very good." ”
Lin Lei's heart trembled.
Suddenly, Lin Lei felt a little pity for this old man in his heart.
"Hehe, Lin Lei, I'm already very satisfied. You don't know...... If my soul had been captured by 'Hamlin', I would have been worse off than dead. The old man sighed.
"Grandpa, your name is Drinkwater, can I call you Grandpa Drinker?" Lin Lei said suddenly.
Drinkwater, a great Sanctuary mage during the Puang Empire, had such a high status that he was also among the top five in the entire Magnolia Continent at that time. It was only the despicable sneak attack of the Sanctuary Magister 'Hamlin' and another Sanctuary powerhouse that caused the fall of Drinkwater.
However......
Drinkwater never had children and no grandchildren. Now hearing Lin Lei call him Grandpa Delin, Delinkovart's heart, which has been lonely for thousands of years, suddenly feels warm.
"Okay, okay." Drinkwater was also very happy at this time.
Lin Lei suddenly said with a hint of surprise in his eyes: "Grandpa Delin, you just said that you are a Sacred Domain Demon Master, so can you teach me to learn magic?" Lin Lei's heart jumped up, the person in front of him was a Sacred Demon Master more than 5,000 years ago.
In Lin Lei's mind, he couldn't help but think of the huge body of the 'Velociraptor', the terrifying scene of the 'Dance of the Fire Snake', and the endless boulder that fell from the sky. and the proud figure with its feet on the black dragon.
How longing for the day-
He can also stand on the head of the black dragon and soar between heaven and earth.
Drinkwater's white beard curled, and his eyes lit up: "Of course you can, your Grandpa Delin is a great earth system Sanctuary Magister, and among all kinds of magic, the earth system ...... That's the most powerful! Old Delin said magic, and his whole body was refreshed......
In the hall, Hogg and his family were gathering around the dinner, Hogg saw that Lin Lei was absent-minded, grabbing the roast leg of lamb with one hand, eating it in a big gulp, and after a while, a big roast leg of mutton was eaten cleanly, Lin Lei burped comfortably, and then wiped his mouth and hands with a napkin, and directly said that his head was still a little dizzy, and he wanted to go back to rest first.
Hogg looked at Lin Lei, who was a little abnormal, smiled, and nodded slightly.
"Drinkwater?" Hogg looked thoughtfully at the Coiling Dragon Ring on Lin Lei's chest, knowing that the Coiling Dragon Ring had already drippedly blood to recognize the Lord, and Lin Lei also began to have a magical enlightenment teacher, Drinkwater.
"Well, since Lin Lei likes magic, then with Delincowater's teaching, I can rest assured." Hogg secretly said that although he only needed to accumulate Dou Qi at this time, it would take about one to two years for the Dou Qi to transform into a holy realm, but Hogg didn't plan to spend these two years just like this.
He also wanted to seize the time to comprehend the laws and rules, and really embark on the path of cultivation, although almost no one in the ancestors of the Baruch family cultivated the laws and rules to a deep point before becoming gods, but Hogg would not give up.
When the Sanctuary enters Hell, it is undoubtedly a suicide, and the chance of survival is not great, so Hogg's plan is that if he does not become a god, he will not enter Hell.
Therefore, he can't shelter Lin Lei all the time, he has to seize every minute of time to cultivate, so that he can become a god as soon as possible.
What's more, he must destroy the Holy See of Light, otherwise there will always be a thorn in his heart that makes him feel uncomfortable.
