Duke suddenly appeared, which surprised Tianxian very much, because his current location was next to the prison, which was a heavily guarded place in Fire Leaf City, and he shouldn't have come here unless there was something very important.

As for the assassination, it was naturally a joke, and to this day, Tian Xian has used more and more of the power he has obtained, and the path of divine power opened by the ancient god inscription has now blossomed in the power of demons.

Although he can't beat it, but it's always okay to protect himself, Tian Xian glanced at Duke, weighed the difference in strength between the two sides a little, and then frowned suspiciously, this guy really can't be here to assassinate.

So what does it mean to save yourself?

"Help me?"

Duke was very dissatisfied with this attitude, and said in a rough voice: "Why, am I not qualified enough, boy, don't you look at you just picked up a life and came back." ”

"Duke, my life is not to be picked up, but I have earned it myself, so many dominators are besieging the Hangu Tower, relying on the ...... Will you survive?"

Duke waved his hand, "I'm not messing with you, I'm just here to tell you that tomorrow's deal with the Pope, you'd better cancel it, otherwise you'll only have a dead end." ”

Tianxian's eyes suddenly froze, "Why?"

Duke looked at Tian Xian deeply, "No why, boy...... You can live until now, three points of strength, seven points of luck, but the day when luck runs out, I don't think you will still be so lucky tomorrow, some things can't be solved by luck, some things ......"

The muscles on Duke's face rolled unnaturally a few times, gritted his teeth and said, "Some things can't save you even if they're white...... It's the same with Empress Hippo, something is ...... It's not something we humans can change. ”

Duke, the old man, said in an extremely rare pious tone: "There are some forces, we humans have never been able to disobey, but we ourselves don't want to believe it, if you have doubts, just ask Empress Hippo, don't go to Shiro, he is a complete madman!"

Tianxian frowned and pondered, and was about to speak, when suddenly a grinning voice came from the darkness, "Yo...... Who said I was crazy, I'm normal. ”

Duke's red hair suddenly stood up for three points, and he quickly turned around and took two steps back, his eyes fixed on the darkness.

A murderous aura diffused from the darkness, and Tianxian was only on the side, and he was scratched by this murderous aura, and suddenly shivered coldly.

The two cold stars lit up in the darkness, as if two slightly flickering ghost fires were slowly approaching from the darkness.

His white eyes were murderous and flashing with a compelling light, staring at Duke like a poisonous snake staring at a fat frog.

Tianxian noticed that Bai was actually holding a sword.

Where the white sword is placed, Tian Xian is still unclear, sometimes it is thrown on the ground, sometimes it is inserted casually, sometimes it is used to cushion the table, sometimes it is used to hang the wine jug, and even Tian Xian has seen him pull a long sword like white light directly from the palm of his hand.

It is rare to hold a sword like this, and the murderous aura of the whole body appears in front of others.

That kind of strong murderous aura has never been experienced by Tianxian.

Beads of sweat quickly formed between Duke's fiery red hair, and he said, "Shiro, you've been working in vain, haven't you realized it yet?"

"In vain, how do you know?"

"We all know that since we became the Dominants and really experienced what it was like to be superintended, we all knew that everything was ...... It's just in vain. Duke exhaled slowly, but there was endless helplessness and bitterness in the tension.

"That's just you. Bai Leng snorted, "In vain...... Wouldn't it be better if we died a hundred times! Do we do our best to live until now at the last bit of humanity, are we just in vain?"

Slowly pulled out the sword, the white sword was swarthy and without light today, as if connecting the entire darkness, "Duke, go back and tell the old man, I don't allow any dominators to appear in this city again, otherwise I will kill one by one, did you hear me?"

When Duke heard this, his expression suddenly relaxed, he knew very well the difference in strength between the two sides, if the other party wanted to kill him, he would not escape from the city without any life.

However, Duke's expression when he looked at the sky was much more complicated, "Is this the kid, Bai ...... Do you really think ......"

"It's not that I think it's certain!" Bai interrupted Duke's words, and the black sword shook slightly, making a terrifying buzzing sound.

Duke could only nod, "Okay, I'll bring the words, but I have a request!"

Bai snorted, "After dawn, I will see people wandering around this city again, I will definitely see one and kill the other, until then, whatever you want." ”

Duke took a few deep breaths, "Thank you!"

After saying that, Duke slowly retreated, still staring at Bai cautiously, and soon the red hair completely disappeared into the darkness and disappeared.

As if by magic, the white sword disappeared from his hand, replaced by a wine jug.

"This idiot is still thinking about Hippo, what is so good about that kind of two-thousand-year-old woman. While drinking, Shiro muttered.

Tian Xian couldn't help but widen his eyes when he heard this, just now he ...... What did you just say?

"Hmm, boy, did you hear what I said?" asked Bai suddenly looking over.

Tianxian shook his head quickly, like a rattle.

Nodding with satisfaction, Bai beckoned to Tianxian, "Come on, let's have a drink together, I just have something to say, I don't rush to find Hibo to ask anything, anyway, ......"

Touching his chin, the corners of his white mouth showed a malicious smile, "Adult beauty, huh...... I have also become merciful. ”

In this regard, Tianxian is a little disagreeable.

A minute later, the two figures returned to the white courtyard, this place seemed to be completely cut off from the hustle and bustle of Fire Leaf City, forever so quiet, even the air didn't seem to be so hot.

Comfortably leaned in the chair, drinking the wine in the jug in vain, what I just said was to have a drink with Tianxian, but now it seems that there is no intention to take a sip of leisure.

Tian Xian didn't mind, anyway, when he got here, he just went to Empress Hippo to inquire about the situation, according to Duke, Hippo should know something.

"Boy, I heard you want cave beasts. Bai said suddenly.

Tian Xian nodded, "There are some things that may require cave beasts to do, although not necessarily, but it is worth preparing." ”

"It's worth fighting with your life?"

Smiling, Tian Xian did not answer.

"Your own choice, I won't interfere too much, after all, I don't have the ability to stop what I want to stop, but you can, but there are some things, I can also give you some small ones, huh...... A small help. Shiro uses his index finger and thumb to compare the space the size of the pin's nose.

Tianxian was unexpectedly this time, Bai used to look like he was happy to watch the show, and it was rare to take the initiative to help.

"Senior, please say, I'll just listen with my heart. ”

Bai shook the flask, "I don't know what you want the cave beast to do, but I want to remind you that the cave beast is not omnipotent, and it is just one of the many strange monsters in the Age of the Gods, eh...... It's a little more unique, but that's about it. ”

Tian Xian couldn't help but look at Bai, what kind of abilities the cave beast had was indeed not completely certain, but just the ones he had seen before were already incomparably amazing, but they were not just unique.

"When I left the Temple of the Holy Spirit, the cave beast was still in the prime of life, and now it ...... I don't know what it looks like, but if I didn't guess wrong, I should be almost unable to hold on. ”

Tianxian's heart moved slightly, when he saw that cave beast, he did look very old, even if he didn't know what this kind of thing should look like for a young adult, but from his eyes, pace, shiny hair, and muscle lines, he could still see a lot of things.

Bai continued: "Cave beasts are a very strange life, they are not a single species, but they appear for some common reason, they are the same group. ”

"Common cause?" said Tian Xian wondered.

"Before they became cave beasts, all of them were other magical beasts, even just ordinary beasts, and the reason why they became cave beasts was because they had all passed through the Cave of Time, which is also the origin of their name. ”

"The Hole of Time?"

Bai smiled casually, "The world of the Age of the Gods is completely different from now, the pillar power and tiny elements of the entire world are different, the Hole of Time is a wonderful passage formed by the unconscious condensation of the scattered divine power of one of the gods, and the life that passes through will be bound by the power of time, and it will not die until the life is extracted by the power of time." ”

Tian Xian's heart jumped, "Immortality?"

"How can there be immortality!" Bai Haha laughed, "In the age of the gods, this kind of thing was very common, that world...... Later you will fully understand. ”

"Therefore, there are many kinds of cave beasts, cats and dogs can become cave beasts, but only real high-level demonic beasts can consciously use their own power of time, but high-enough beings will definitely be aware of the existence of the cave of time, and will not rush into it, and even rely on their own strength to get rid of the shackles when they were initially possessed by the power of time. ”

"So......" Bai looked over with a warning look, "Although the cave beasts are all demonic beasts of the Age of the Gods, they are actually not too powerful, and as the power of time continues to extract life, their abilities will become weaker and weaker, until they ...... Died for the last time using the ability. ”

Tian Xian finally knew what Bai was going to say, and after thinking for a while, he asked, "That is, that cave beast...... It is likely that there is no strength left, and it may even be possible to die if it is used again. ”

Bai shrugged his shoulders, "I didn't see it, how do I know if he will die, but every time I use my ability, my life will decay by one point, which is inevitable." ”

"So, if you don't use your abilities, can you not die?"

Bai Hehehe laughed, his laughter was a little weird, "Once, it was not that there were no human beings who strayed into the cave of time, and then, human cave beasts appeared. ”

"People...... Human?" Tian Xian was taken aback.

"Yes, human beings...... In the age of the gods, such things happen from time to time, but the human cave beasts do not live long, because they say that the power of time is like a curse tormenting them, and the past will continue to surface, and sometimes it seems that they can see the future, and they can't tell the time, they can't tell when they are, and their spirits will be blurred for a while, and they will be sober for a while, and it seems that they will live ten years ago and ten years later. ”

"Isn't that painful?"

"Nonsense!" "Blasphemed!" "But as long as you use your ability, as long as you correct your own time turbulence, as long as you let time flow under your own power control, you can get a short period of clarity." ”

"And every time, it will be drained by the power of time. Tianxian frowned.

"To be precise, by the time they passed through the Cave of Time, their lives were over, and all that remained was their bodies dominated by the power of time, and when the power of light was exhausted, their bodies completely collapsed. ”

Tian Xian nodded, this time he thought for a while, and carefully recalled the situation of the cave beast, "Do the predecessors have a way to determine the length of life of the cave beast?"

"No!" Bai replied dryly.

Tianxian has a headache this time.

The cave beast was quite useful, but if his strength had deteriorated so much that he could not even sustain it a few times before dying, then the situation would be completely different, and the deal with the Pope would have become very reckless.

Seeing that Tianxian was silent, Bai was happy, "Another problem, boy, solve it yourself, I will watch you, if it is solved beautifully, I may have benefits for you." ”

Tian Xian glanced at Bai in disbelief, the benefits in this guy's hands are varied, and he thinks that they are benefits......

"Well, it seems like the time is almost up. ”

Tianxian was slightly stunned, what is almost it.

Following Bai's malicious gaze, Tian Xian was stunned to find that the door to Empress Hippo's dark golden palace had opened, and Duke, whose hair was flushed, slowly withdrew from inside.

Duke retreated to the door, and Hippo's cold voice came from the palace, "Duke, for the sake of the old feelings, this is the last time I will see you as a friend, understand?"

Duke's expression was obviously a little dazed, and he stood there, not knowing what to say.

The spirit officer's tall body appeared at the gate of the palace, and he didn't say anything, just patted Duke on the shoulder and turned and walked back.

The door to the palace slammed shut, and Duke still stood in front of it.

Bai Hehe smiled: "At the beginning, Hippo was a charming beauty, I don't know how many people were fascinated, even after two thousand years, in fact, an old woman of more than two thousand years old ......"

The gate of the palace opened suddenly, a golden light shot over, his white eyes stared, and he raised his hand to annihilate the golden light directly in his hand, and the smile on his face was still there, but he closed his mouth.

Duke stood for a few moments before leaving.

Tianxian watched his back disappear, and then he also walked to the gate of the palace.
