Chapter 196: The Lord of Darkness

The ancient legend of the Five Elements Great Path has always been the exposition of the Five Great Masters, and this has become the truth and fact in the hearts of all cultivators or the vast majority of cultivators. However, history cannot be completely preserved in the vicissitudes of life, and some important people and events will be drowned in the long river of time.

Zhang Mochen's eyes were full of surprise, the five major masters were already the strongest existence in heaven and earth, and it turned out that they still needed five people together to be on par with that one, this news was really jaw-dropping.

Looking at Zhang Mochen's sluggish appearance, Mu Ling was not worried that the explosiveness of the news would make him stupid, and after thinking about it slightly, he continued: "Your guess is not wrong. Next, every word I say has to be memorized in your mind. ”

Zhang Mochen put away his astonishment, and looked at the wood spirit that was floating back and forth like a human being with a serious face.

"In antiquity, it was not the Five Masters, but the Six Masters. The sixth person controls a kind of primordial force beyond heaven and earthβ€”the desolate power, known as the Lord of Darkness. ”

Mu Ling tilted his head slightly, squinted his eyes, and began to slowly recall the events of the ancient period in his mind.

"The Six Masters jointly control this world, and later because of some things, the Dark Lord and the other five Masters are on opposite sides. Even if you are one against five, you still don't fall behind. ”

Zhang Mochen's throat kept shaking, even if there was no trace of saliva in his mouth. The rumors about the five masters have long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, each of them has the power to open the world, and it is the ultimate goal in the hearts of all cultivators, but it is such a five immeasurable existence, even if they join forces, they can't subdue the dark master, how terrifying their strength is, Zhang Mochen can't think of it, and he doesn't dare to think about it.

However, the thing that made Zhang Mochen's jaw drop was still to come.

"The tug-of-war between the two sides lasted for hundreds of years, and then, for some reason, the Lord of Darkness suddenly increased in strength, and because of his anger, he wanted to turn the whole world into a dark hell. In order to stop this catastrophe, the five masters did not hesitate to fall, and finally joined forces to seal the dark master. ”

In just a few words, Mu Ling's face became extremely solemn, and his eyes, which had always been calm and indifferent, were also occupied by horror, as if he was not telling the ancient deeds, but witnessing and experiencing it with his own eyes, because only when he was there was such a strong sense of shock.

Zhang Mochen's whole person was already frozen, if it weren't for the fact that his eyes were also sparkling with consternation, it was no different from a piece of wood.

Mu Ling took a deep breath and tried to calm the throbbing in his heart.

"After the fall of the Five Juggernauts, they divided this continent into five pieces, and at the same time lodged the last trace of the Yuan Soul into the ring. ”

Zhang Mochen nodded solemnly and said, "Well, you told me this before, the gold ring, the wood ring, the water ring, the fire ring and the earth ring. If you can get the ring, you will get the inheritance of the corresponding master. ”

Mu Ling nodded to indicate that it was right, but the solemnity on his face did not disappear.

"Unfortunately, there will always be a day when the imprint will loosen. Thousands of years later, the Lord of Darkness has finally regained his day, and the Five Masters are no longer even bones. ”

One side was sealed, the other side fell, and it is now clear who will win or lose that catastrophe. Zhang Mochen's face was solemn and at the same time there was a hint of doubt.

"Master, since the Lord of Darkness finally broke through the seal, why can this piece of heaven and earth still survive until now?"

Mu Ling smiled slightly, but he looked a little helpless.

"Although he broke through the seal, the original god was hit hard, and he would be reincarnated every hundred years. ”

"Reincarnation, even if he regains his dominance strength in a hundred years, he will have to go through reincarnation and start from scratch?" Zhang Mochen asked in surprise.

"Yes, unless he devours the Yuan Soul that remains of the Five Great Masters, there will be an endless reincarnation. Mu Ling nodded and said.

"So, he will do everything he can to find those five rings?"

"Well, no one has ever seen the true face of the Lord of Darkness, but the power of the Hades Temple spreads across every continent, and in the year you were born, reincarnation entered a new hundred years. Mu Ling replied.

The mess in his heart was finally sorted out in an orderly manner, and Zhang Mochen completely understood the meaning of the existence of the Hades Temple and the Life Alliance. One is to search for the five rings with all his might, so that the Lord of Darkness can break the cycle of reincarnation, and the other is to fight to the death to ensure the peace of the world.

Zhang Mochen sighed, born in such a world of great contention, he suddenly had a kind of ant-like sadness. The phrase that one's own destiny is in one's own hands sounds absurd and comical at this time. What about Yuan Jiang? What about Yuan Wang? Even Yuan Zun and Yuan Emperor didn't live under this kind of main theme? Once the Dark Lord gathered those five rings, the Five Elements Continent would be completely plunged into darkness.

Seeing Zhang Mochen falling into depression and melancholy, Mu Ling walked over and patted him on the shoulder, and said softly with relief: "You don't have to be so sad. How can the five dominant primordial gods be so easy to find?"

Zhang Mochen blinked, as if he felt that it was indeed a little unfounded. After so many years, if it was easy, this Five Elements Continent would have been renamed the Dark Abyss a long time ago.

"Master, isn't there a way to completely eliminate the Dark Master? Even if the Five Great Masters are not easy to find, it is not a way to be so passive. ”

"There are some things I didn't want to tell you so early, but since you asked, it's up to you over there, otherwise it's not good to leave a knot in your heart. Zhang Mochen's question made Mu Ling fall into deep thought, and after a long time, he sighed and said, "Every hundred years of reincarnation, a living master will be born, and he will be guided by the underworld to try to obtain the inheritance of the five masters, if this living master successfully collects the five rings, he can completely wipe out the dark master." ”

"No wonder the Hades Temple is active again, it turns out that a new round of ring competition has begun again. Zhang Mochen nodded and replied.

"The war never stopped, and it was fierce, but neither side succeeded. I remember that the most certain time was five hundred years ago, when the birth master of that life broke through to Emperor Yuan at the age of thirty, but unfortunately, in the end, it was still a bad move. Mu Ling shook his head and replied, "Moreover, the Dark Lord will retain his memories after reincarnation, but the Living Lord is a different person in every life, and he really started from scratch. ”

The corners of his mouth flashed with a hint of bitterness, there is really no so-called fairness in this world. One is a hereditary prince and nobleman, and the other is a soldier who needs to be crawled and beaten in every life. The gap between the starting lines is a bit big. The Life Alliance was able to protect the people of the world for thousands of years under such a weakness, and Zhang Mochen sincerely felt a sense of admiration.

"Alas, it feels like I've lived in vain before today. Zhang Mochen slapped his ass and stood up, and his expression was not as solemn as just now. Since you can't change the world, you can only adapt, life is too short, there is no need to worry about the sky and put yourself under so much pressure.

Mu Ling's eyes flashed with an imperceptible light, and he smiled slightly: "It's not too late to know now, maybe the living master of this life is you." ”

"Master, don't make a fuss. There is a 1 in 100 million chance that you are just born. I'm sixteen years old this year, and I'm just a high-level master. You'd better pray not for me. Zhang Mochen glanced at his lips and glared at Mu Ling angrily.

"Oh, you also have times when you have low self-esteem, what about the arrogance you used to have?" The corners of his mouth turned into a mocking arc, and Mu Ling said with a grin.

Seeing that Mu Ling began to make trouble again, Zhang Mochen was too lazy to take care of it, and looked sideways slightly, and found that a white light had lit up outside the cave, and before he knew it, a night had passed.

"Tomorrow is my big day, do you want to come and have a glass of wine?" Suddenly, the corners of his mouth grinned, leaking a bad smile, Zhang Mochen turned around and said.

"Make a boy, deliberately covet me, don't you? Don't you know that I can't leave this hell place?" which pot is not opened, Mu Ling's teeth are itchy with anger, and he stretches out his hand to fan Zhang Mochen.

After being ridiculed by Mu Ling, there was no reason not to change back, Zhang Mochen was already ready to escape, and when Mu Ling just raised his hand, it turned into a cloud of black smoke and rushed towards the outside of the cave.

Looking at the back that was gradually disappearing, Mu Ling withdrew his palm and shouted, "I'll do it again when I'm done." ”

"Got it!" the figure had long since disappeared, but the voice came back from afar.
