Chapter 5: Dead Again?
After sitting cross-legged, Ling Xuan felt that his soul had fallen into darkness, and there was a path full of light in the darkness.
Ling Xuan stepped up, he didn't know how long he had walked, the road seemed to have no end, and suddenly a gate thousands of zhang high and emitting golden light appeared in front of him, revealing the domineering spirit of the world and the kindness of compassion, these two completely different breaths were perfectly integrated together on this gate, Ling Xuan accelerated and walked forward.
When he approached, he found that this gate was made of bronze, and the reason why it emitted golden light was because the bronze door was engraved with a nine-clawed golden dragon with a majestic head, and the golden dragon was lifelike and natural, as if it would rush out of the door in the next moment, swallowing Ling Xuan.
Ling Xuan stepped forward, wanting to see if he could push this gate, but as soon as he took a step, the eyes of the nine-clawed golden dragon on the bronze door suddenly lit up. What kind of eyes were they, arrogant and uninhibited, indifferent and ruthless, as evil as hellish Shura.
Then the body of this golden dragon slowly slid and flew out of the air from the bronze door, bowing its head slightly, looking at Ling Xuan indifferently, as if looking at an ant.
Compared to the thousand-foot body of the nine-clawed golden dragon, Ling Xuan was indeed as small as an ant. Ling Xuan was stunned at this time, he didn't know what was going on at all.
Situ Wen only told himself that he had to recall in his heart the scene of Divine Ancestor Ling Hua sacrificing his body, but how could he appear in this dark space and encounter such a powerful nine-clawed golden dragon.
"Roarβ"
Just when Ling Xuan didn't know what to do, an earth-shattering dragon groan suddenly appeared in this dark space. Then this golden dragon flew into the air and gradually disappeared from Ling Xuan's field of vision.
Ling Xuan thought that the golden dragon was leaving, and was about to breathe a sigh of relief, but the next moment, the golden dragon suddenly appeared, falling like a lightning volley, engulfing Ling Xuan.
"I didn't expect me to die again!" This was Ling Xuan's last thought before being devoured by the golden dragon.
At the same time, in a space under the palace, there was a golden dragon like a prison, with its eyes closed, as if it was sleeping. It is roughly the same as the golden dragon on the bronze door, if there is any difference between the two, it is that the golden dragon on the bronze door has nine claws, and this golden dragon only has five claws.
When Ling Xuan was devoured by the Nine-Clawed Golden Dragon, its eyes suddenly opened, and for a moment it seemed as if two streams of light swept through this space.
"It's... This is the blood breath of the ancestors, and there are still people in the Ling royal family who can awaken the bloodline of the divine dragon. β
A powerful force swept through the palace and finally stopped at the Heavenly Star Palace, which was the secret room where Ling Xuan was.
A figure suddenly appeared outside the Heavenly Star Palace, this was a young man dressed in black, handsome, and a pair of eyes were curiously looking at the Heavenly Star Hall in front of him.
After Ling Xuan sat down cross-legged, Situ Wen closed the door of the secret room to prevent anyone from interfering with Ling Xuan, after all, there were many people who hoped that something would happen to Ling Xuan.
And after the Heavenly Star Hall was closed, no one could forcibly break it unless the strong person of the Heavenly Star Realm came in person, and the man in black obviously did not reach the Heavenly Star Realm, so he could only wait outside for the person who could open the Heavenly Star Hall to appear.
"Hello, what's wrong?"
Ling Yang brought people from Shengyang Palace in a hurry, because it was approaching the end of the year, all kinds of affairs had to be dealt with in a hurry, and they could not be left until the New Year. At that time, he was reviewing the folds in the Jiuhua Palace, and suddenly felt the power of the Emperor pass through the palace and appear in the Heavenly Star Palace. So he hurried over to find out what had happened.
"Your Majesty, I don't know who is cultivating among them?"
"My third son, Ling Xuan, is in it, Zun, what's going on here,"
Ling Yang was worried, but Ling Xuan had high hopes and was recognized as the candidate for the next monarch. Not to mention that after solving Wu Yi's matter, Ling Yang cherished his son even more.
"What's going on? Let's go in and see. He said with a smile.
As soon as Qi Zun's words fell, the door of the Heavenly Star Hall was opened, Situ Wen walked out of it with an anxious face, and saw that Ling Yang didn't care about saluting, so he said directly: "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness King Xuan is in a very strange state now, go and take a look." β
Qi Zun walked in alone, while Ling Yang ordered Cao Zheng to stay outside, strictly forbidding anyone to approach, and then walked quickly into the Heavenly Star Hall with Situ Wen.
Ling Yang finally knew why Situ Wen said that Ling Xuan was in a strange state, at this time, Ling Xuan's whole body was emitting golden light, the clothes on his body were burned all over, and there were small scales like fish and snakes growing out of his skin, which was very weird, this was by no means a normal phenomenon of sensing divine power.
"Qi Zun, what's going on?" Ling Yang looked at Qi Zun, who was looking at Ling Xuan from the side.
"Congratulations, Your Majesty, since the fall of the Shenghua Divine Dynasty ten thousand years ago, someone from the Ling Clan has finally awakened the blood of the Divine Dragon again. He said with a smile.
"What does Xuan Zun mean that Xuan'er is fine?" Ling Yang was not at ease and confirmed to Xuan Zun.
"Not bad. Qi Zun smiled, thinking to himself, Your Majesty, a person who is usually so wise and martial, why is he so confused now, shouldn't he care about the divine dragon bloodline now?
"Congratulations, Your Majesty, His Royal Highness King Xuan has now awakened the bloodline of the Divine Dragon, and he will definitely be able to ascend to the Heavenly Realm in the future, destroy all countries, descend to the Three Sects, and unify the Chinese Realm. Situ Wen reacted first and congratulated loudly.
"Xuan'er has not grown up now, and the bloodline of the divine dragon must not be known by others. Ling Xuan also reacted at this time and said in a deep voice.
"Your Majesty, rest assured, the old minister will be tight-lipped and will not let anyone know about this. β
"If the deity wants to break through to the Tianxing Realm, maybe he needs the help of this little guy, how can he put him in danger. β
The two of them said that they would not let people know about it.
"I naturally trust the two of them, but I'm afraid that the news of Qi Zun's appearance in the Heavenly Star Hall has already come out, which will make people suspicious. β
"I will let Cao Zheng release the news, after Xuan'er sensed the divine power, there was no exercise guidance, and he attacked the meridians without authorization, causing the meridians to be injured, but fortunately he was rescued by Qizun. β
"At that time, please cooperate with me with this news. Ling Yang looked at the two of them seriously and said.
"The old minister obeyed. β
"The deity knows"
That night, the news of Ling Xuan's meridian injury spread throughout the imperial capital, and the princes and ministers all heard about it.
Right Prime Minister's House Study
"Haha......"
"Father, Ling Xuan's kid didn't know the height of the sky, and he actually attacked the meridians without permission. Ouyang Mu smiled, and then said with a vicious look in his eyes: "It's best to let his meridians be cut off, if he can't cultivate in this life, I don't believe that the family and the royal family will let a waste person ascend to the throne." β
"Fool, Yu Zun personally descended to the Heavenly Star Palace, do you think Ling Xuan will be in trouble?" Ouyang Yuan looked indifferent.
"Yes, my father taught me. However, when did Ling Xuan get the favor of Qi Zun. Ouyang Mu looked puzzled, "You must know that in the past hundred years, except for the days when the first emperor died and His Majesty ascended the throne twenty years ago, Qi Zun has never appeared. β
This is also where the Father doubts. Ouyang Mu frowned.
"Grandfather, maybe His Majesty took Ling Xuan to see Qi Zun in the past. A teenager said.
This young man's name is Ouyang Yi, he is Ouyang Mu's second son, but he is extremely intelligent and talented, and now he has reached the realm of Xuanzhi at the age of thirteen, and Ouyang Yuan intends to train him to be the next head of the Ouyang family.
"Fortunately, I have such a grandson, otherwise with my stupid son, the foundation of the Ouyang family for 10,000 years will be over. Thinking of this, Ouyang Yuan glared at Ouyang Mu with disgust. Then he said satisfiedly: "Yi'er is right, there is this possibility." β
Ouyang Mu was stared at by his father, and he didn't know where he had provoked his father's dislike, but he was his father's only son, and he would never expel himself from the house.
Left Prime Minister's House
"The old man is sorry for Your Majesty and betrayed Your Majesty's trust. Situ Wen wept bitterly in the hall, and his words were profound, if Ling Xuan was here, he would definitely admire his grandfather's superb acting skills.
"Madam, pack your bags, tomorrow the old man will resign to His Majesty, retire to the countryside, and no longer ask about political affairs. Situ Wen confessed to his wife.
Everyone in the Situ family hurriedly persuaded the old man to dispel this idea.
Jiuhua Palace
"Your Majesty, how is Xuan'er?"
Situ Jing asked worriedly, since she knew that Ling Yang and Qi Zun had entered the Heavenly Star Hall together, she had been in a hurry to feel the Heavenly Star Palace, and by that time the Heavenly Star Hall had been completely closed, and she could not enter.
And Cao Zheng didn't know what was going on, so he had no choice but to return to Fengyi Palace first, and it wasn't until just now that news came that his son's meridians had been injured.
"I'm just afraid that you'll be worried, so I won't let people pass the news to you, but I didn't find Jing'er and still knew. Ling Yang looked helpless.
"All right, you all go down. Ling Yang instructed the eunuch and palace maid beside him.
"Ah Zheng, you stay. Cao Zheng, who was slowly exiting Jiuhua Palace, stopped and walked to Ling Yang's side again.
"What I say next is related to the future national fortune of my Ling Kingdom, and you have to keep silent about this matter. "A vast force full of majesty and domineering has laid an enchantment in Jiuhua Palace to prevent others from prying eyes.
These two people, one is the love of his life, and the other is a brother who accompanied him from birth to death, Ling Yang will never hide it from them.
