CHAPTER XVI

His Majesty Tuoba Zheng, the Emperor of the Wuyang Empire, was already in his prime, although he didn't have much talent in cultivation. However, it has to be said that he is a qualified emperor. Although the Tuoba clan is a royal family, it is still incomparable to the combined power of the Eight Great Immortal Sects. He has controlled the court with the art of the emperor for more than 40 years, and the emperor's mind is even more perfect. Being able to control the Eight Great Immortal Gates with the power of a single family name shows the wisdom of his people. And tonight, this emperor, who was already like a stone, heard a news that made his heart palpitate.

"Yes, Your Majesty. Observing the sky at night last night, it was indeed a fish that had slipped through the net back then and stepped into the cultivation world!"Heavenly Master Dao, good at divination, there is only one descendant in the past dynasties, and the origin is mysterious. Since the Tuoba clan started the army, it has been attached to the Tuoba clan, inheriting the national teacher for generations, and is the fifteenth generation of the successor so far. This generation of national teachers is called Tianxingzi, and no one knows his real name.

"It is recorded in the secret records of the royal family that when the Lin family destroyed the country, the ancestor of the Lin family sacrificed to the ancestral demon with more than 1,300 people from the top 10 tribes, and a combined ten gods with 200 yuan and 800 gold pills. The Ancestral Demon finally promised that if the Lin clan still had descendants who could step into the position of the Divine Monarch, the Ancestral Demon would personally give him a doppelganger to help him slaughter all rebellions. The means are so cruel that every time I read it, I feel like I am backing it!". In the deep palace, the old emperor's expression became heavier and heavier. Seeing that the general trend has gone, he is about to sacrifice all his family members in order to give his descendants a chance for revenge.

The national teacher seemed to fall into deep thought, and after a long time, he said: "This son has a strange treasure talisman on his body, and there is no way to guess his location with the secret astrology technique in my sect. ”

"Is the national teacher going to sit back and wait to die!"

"Your Majesty, what do you mean?"

"How many disciples have the Eight Great Immortal Sects recruited in the past ten years?"

"Three thousand and twenty-seven in all"

"What if all three thousand and twenty-seven people died!" Tuoba Zheng's voice became cold.

The candle flame in the main hall is windless and automatic, is this the emperor's mental technique? Tuoba Zheng's deep voice was like the murmur of an evil ghost, and the entire hall became eerie and terrifying. The emperor was furious, and the blood flowed and the pestle flowed. But that's the Eight Great Immortal Sects! All the elite children recruited in ten years, if they are gone...... Can the royal family really withstand the wrath of the Eight Great Immortal Gates?

"Does the national teacher think it's feasible?" Tuoba Zheng asked again.

"Your Majesty, what do you want?"

"I thought that this Wuyang Empire only needed to know the word Tuoba was enough!"

......

The back of the national teacher is still soaked in cold sweat, that is the Eight Great Immortal Gates!

"Where's the Shadow Guard?"

"In" Four ghost-faced people dressed in pitch-black armor and masks appeared in front of Tuoba Zheng.

"Tonight, all the eunuchs, palace maids, and guards within three hundred steps inside and outside the Qinzheng Hall will be executed!" His Majesty the Emperor's deep voice stopped in the ears of the national teacher, it was so gloomy.

"Please also ask the national teacher to plan on my behalf!"

"Minister~~~ obey the order!"

The next day, at noon. Blood rain fell from the sky, stretching for thousands of miles. The historian said: "This is a warning from the heavens, and Your Majesty needs to cultivate benevolent government." The emperor killed him in anger! No one in the Manchu dynasty dared to say a word. The open and secret battles of the Eight Great Immortal Gates intensified, but in the face of the trivial matters in the court, they unexpectedly chose to be silent, and a storm was just around the corner!

"Lin Xi, do you say that this sect is too picky. Can't you prepare a few chairs in this scripture reading pavilion? My son's waist is sore!" Duanmu Rui rubbed his sore waist again and again, complaining over and over again.

"Let's hurry up and get the punishment! It's going to be late in a while, and we will be cleaned up by Elder Mo again. ”

"You still have the face to say, if it weren't for your own son, twenty staffs, now think about my ass still hurts. ”

"Really, does it hurt here?" Lin Xi finished speaking, slapped Duanmu Rui's buttocks, and then ran forward.

"You kid!!You've learned badly!" It's only been three days, although there is an elixir, but the power of the runes contained in the staff is still faintly painful, and at this moment, he was slapped by Lin Xi, and Duanmu Rui almost didn't jump up.

Not far behind him, the ghost can't help but feel sad. It's nice to be young! Once upon a time, I had such a day! It's a pity that the playmate who had been fighting with me all day long had turned into ashes......

Under the Cliff of Inquiry, in a thatched hut.

"The two senior brothers are polite! The two boys were ordered to come to receive the punishment and sweep the Question Heart Cliff for ten days!" Lin Xi bowed to the two deacon disciples.

"The sect has already instructed that these are two tokens. The two juniors and disciples put it away, and they must not leave. The prohibition on this stone step is very strange, if the token leaves your body, you will have to bear the complete power of the prohibition yourself!!You must know that even Elder Xu Tianyi Xu can only reach the five hundred steps!" Although Lin Xi and Duanmu Rui are only outer disciples at the moment, they are the inheritors of Shenmu Peak and Sword Furnace Peak. Now he is also a popular figure in the sect, and the two little deacon disciples still dare not offend them. Especially the character of Young Master Duanmu Rui, who must be repaid, and the style of acting that does not follow the routine, the prestige of the Demon King of the Mixed World is not a joke.

"The prohibition on the heart of the heart was engraved on the stone steps by the senior back then, so don't remember! Don't use the slightest mana when sprinkling! Otherwise, the power of the prohibition will be directly turned into ashes by the cultivation of the two of you!" After the deacon's disciples explained repeatedly, the two took the tools of sprinkling and began their own cleaning work.

"The two of us are really difficult brothers, Lin Xi," Duanmu Rui complained while cleaning up.

"Don't complain, you forgot that you were struck by lightning yesterday!"

"Hey, you still say!!"

"Okay, okay, I won't talk about it! How about the division of labor and cooperation, young master?"

"How to cooperate?"

"I climbed to the top of the stone steps and swept down from above. How about you sweep from the bottom up?"

"Sounds good, so be it!"

Lin Xi slowly climbed up the Questioning Mind Yard with the sprinkler sweeping tool, if this Questioning Mind Career stone staircase did not have the power of prohibition, it was nothing to a cultivator like them. Ever since Lin Xi stepped into the first level of Qi cultivation, he hadn't found that his body had been strengthened a lot by the power of Yuehua. At this moment, it only took him three sticks of incense to climb up to the end of his heart, and he only sweated slightly.

I don't know why, Lin Xi has always faintly felt in his heart that there is something in his heart, and he has been calling for himself. Today, I would like to take this opportunity to come up and find out. It's midday, even though it's almost October. On this day, because of the abundant aura, even if you are in the northern Xinjiang, it is still verdant and green at this moment. The Asking Heart Rim is a lonely place on the periphery of Tianyu Mountain, and Lin Xi is at the top of the cliff and climbs high and looks far away. The Luoyu Lake under the mountain is like a mirror, the clouds and mist under the heart of the heart, the lake and the mountains, and the beautiful scenery lives up to the name of the fairy gate.

After a short break, Lin Xi began his work. The stone steps of this Wenxinya are all made of local materials, the stone mountain in the northern Xinjiang contains more ores of the genus of hardware, and there are the largest refined iron ore and metallic spirit stone mines in the Wuyang Empire in the Tianyu Mountain, and the stones of this Wenxinya have been infiltrated by the aura for countless years, and it is stronger than steel, and it has been condensed by the mana of the people who opened the way back then. After thousands of years of wind and frost, the runes engraved on the stone steps are still clearly legible.

Lin Xi swept silently, and the tattoos on his chest were hot for a while. The sense of calling in his heart seemed to be even stronger, what was wrong with him? Lin Xi shook his head, looked around, and then continued his work. The stone steps at the top of the Asking Heart Career are rarely visited, and almost all birds and beasts are rare except for the disciples who sprinkle and sweep every day.

"What's your name?" an old voice came from behind Lin Xi.

Lin Xi was concentrating on sweeping, when suddenly a voice came from behind him, and he couldn't help but turn his head to see that a hazy figure appeared in the clouds below. I couldn't see the face clearly, but seeing that the position of the cloud and mist was about the position of about seven hundred steps, Lin Xi remembered the explanation of the two senior brothers before coming just now. Xu Tianyi and Uncle Xu can only reach the five hundred steps!!If this old man doesn't have a token in his body, then 。。。。。。 Thinking of this, Lin Xi gave a deep salute.

"Kid Lin Xi has seen his seniors, I don't know what to call his seniors!"

"Lin Xi, are you a beginner?"

"Seniors are wise, and the kid is a newly entered outer disciple. β€œ

"The innate hidden spirit root is really a good seedling. Have you ever apprenticed?"

"The family teacher is the first seat of the Sword Furnace Peak, you can know the seniors"

"Riding the wind, this kid, really has good eyesight! Boy, let's practice hard! If there are more people who come to this Inquiry Cliff in the future!" After the old man finished speaking, he disappeared into the clouds, and heard a murmur from a distance, "Why not her, obviously has her breath。。。。。。 ”

The old man comes and goes quickly. Lin Xi thought that this was a dream of his own, and he didn't have time to think about it. The sky is getting darker, and it seems that we still have to work harder. Otherwise, this stone step will be swept up at night, and it will be too dangerous to be dark and dark. He can't use any mana, in fact, if he really slips down from here, with his weak mana, it seems to be useless. Lin Xi gathered his mind and silently cleaned the stone steps. After the eldest young master Duanmu woke up from the epiphany, his heart suddenly brightened, although he disdained to do these chores, but the eldest young master Duanmu had never had the habit of letting his friends suffer alone, so he was quite hardworking.

As the sun set, it was already evening. The two finally met on the mountainside, and the day's task was finally completed, and the two sat down on the stone steps to rest for a while.

"Lin Xi, what are you joining the Immortal Sect for?" Duanmu Rui asked casually.

"To live!" Lin Xi said faintly, for some reason, Lin Xi kept thinking about what the old man said. Why wasn't she? Was he waiting for someone?

"I'm hungry, let's go down the mountain. Otherwise~~~" Duanmu Rui suddenly felt Lin Xi's frustration and diverted the topic.

"Okay, good, the eldest young master understands it~ I'll go back and cook for you."

"Sure enough, Xiao Linzi has made a lot of progress recently!"

"Isn't this the black of the near-ink!"

"Hey, I said you kid, this son is such a turbid world, how can a beautiful young man be ink! You stop for me~" The two frolicked and went down the mountain. Far away, in the depths of the clouds and mist, a line of big characters like knives and axes were quietly carved on the cliff wall, as if telling something. The night rain ink shirt, folding the sword to talk about the heart。。。。。。
