Chapter 418: The Twilight of the Empire
In just a handwritten letter, Hong Yuan read and read it, read a lot of information from it, and also had many doubts.
The existence of the Tenglong Ancient City has been confirmed, and according to the last words of the half-demon old man Lonely Water City, it also contains the treasure connection token that the cultivators of the Divine Ghost Continent are most eager for, but where is the entrance to the Tenglong Ancient City, and what kind of danger is inside, the letter does not say.
"My lord, how is it, what does the letter say?" asked Lone Leng Mei, over the years, she had never opened the crystal box in accordance with her master's last words, and she really didn't know what was written in the letter.
"Your master said that there is an ancient ruin under the Tenglong Mountain Range, called Tenglong Ancient City, and there are some treasures sealed inside. Hong Yuan replied, hesitated for a moment, opened the "Half-Demon True Scripture" and looked at it, and then picked up the demon rope.
With the endless peerless exercises of the War Pet Heavenly Scripture, Hong Yuan is not so eager for other exercises, he is greedy and chews too much, and it is not necessarily a good thing to practice too many exercises, rather than simply involving all kinds of exercises, it is better to concentrate on cultivating the War Pet Heavenly Scripture to the extreme.
Hong Yuan became more and more calm and mature, no longer the ignorant teenager who had just stepped into the threshold of cultivation. After a series of turmoil and tribulations, the spiritual intelligence of the demon beasts such as the Blood Bat King under his command became higher and higher, and he himself matured, knowing what he really needed, knowing how to fight hard, and knowing how to give up, and not wasting time in unsuitable places. As the half-demon old man said, the "Half-Demon True Scripture" is a special practice for the half-demon clan to cultivate, and it has special requirements for the body and bloodline.
Among the three relics left by the half-demon old man, the most practical one is the demon rope.
It looks like it's just a whip, only two or three meters long. It looks black and inconspicuous, but the weight is not small, and I don't know what material it is made of.
Hong Yuan carefully observed and pondered, and the demon rope was not good-looking, but according to the last words of the half-demon old man Lonely Water City, this was definitely an extremely powerful killing weapon.
The Blood Bat King and the Wild Bee Queen were silent, and they were also looking at the demon rope in Hong Yuan's hand, and they couldn't see it with Hong Yuan's cultivation, and the two of them naturally couldn't see any way.
After carefully observing it for a while, Hong Yuan waved it gently, whirring and feeling good. A whip was drawn, and a whip mark was left on the hard stone table, soft, tough, and very easy to wield, it was indeed a powerful weapon. However, this alone is far from a treasure.
Hong Yuan stopped, trying to input a wisp of pure dragon power, and the soft bundle of demon ropes immediately stood up, hard like a spear, and it was much longer than the original. A shot was stabbed, and the hard stone wall was a hole, much sharper than the dragon-blood spear in the hands of the dragon-blood warriors. Leaning slightly, increasing the power of input, the bundle demon rope gradually changed from a sharp spear to a long rope, the length became longer and longer, but there was no sense of cumbersomeness in control, like an extended finger, the feeling was very sensitive, and as soon as the mind moved, it was wrapped around a stone bench and dragged up, like commanding a fierce python.
"Okay, it's a rare treasure, but is it only so powerful?"
Hong Yuan applauded, but it still didn't feel enough. The current power of the Demon Binding Rope is much more powerful than many treasures on the Gods and Ghosts Continent, but it is still not enough to be called a peerless treasure, and it cannot be compared with treasures such as the Vampire Scythe, the Divine Whip, and the Divine Sealing Nail. Judging from the tone of the half-demon old man Lonely Water City in his letter, there is more than such a little power.
Hong Yuan acted quickly, silently reciting the technique to force out a drop of natal essence blood, and refining the demon rope in his hand on the spot. There were no obstacles, the refining process was very smooth, and the natal essence blood quickly merged into the bundle of demon ropes, and then, a wave of aura came from the bundle of demon ropes, as if some demon beast came to life. At the same time, one after another aura runes appeared in Hong Yuan's mind, and when they were combined, they faintly turned into an aura python coiled in his mind.
"Dafa of tying up demons!"
"This is what the half-demon old man said about the Dafa of tying demons, the supreme magic method of controlling the tying demon rope!"
Hong Yuanfu was very happy, and remembered the last words of the half-demon old man, and his heart was excited and a little hesitant.
Cultivating this technique can not only truly control the killing weapon of the Demon Binding Rope, but also hope to further improve his cultivation. However, this means that he will become half a disciple of the half-demon old man, inherit his mantle, and in the future, he will protect the half-demon clan for him. After reaping the great benefits, it is necessary to shoulder the corresponding responsibilities.
Hong Yuan didn't want to owe favors to others easily, and he didn't want to shoulder too much responsibility, and after weighing it for a while, the desire to explore the ancient city of Tenglong to find the token still prevailed, and he let go of his heart to comprehend the Dafa of Binding Demons. In his mind, the light of the aura python flickered and gradually dissipated, and the figure of the half-demon old man immediately appeared in his mind, wearing a spotless cyan robe like the deity, shifting and transposing, and dancing to teach Hong Yuan the Dafa of tying demons that he had spent his whole life practicing to practice.
Hong Yuan knew that this was a unique technique of transmitting the power, and he danced with the demon rope in his hand, and the power of the same move increased dramatically, whipping, stabbing, and winding...... , killing moves again and again. The grotto whirred, and the small bundle of demon ropes changed in Hong Yuan's hands, bringing countless phantoms. With this bundle of demon ropes, Hong Yuan seemed to have eighteen weapons in his hands.
The Blood Bat King and the Wild Bee Queen, who were watching the battle from the sidelines, retreated again and again, and were gradually forced out of the grotto by the powerful qi wave.
Both of them have stepped into the threshold of super demon beasts, and their cultivation is not trivial, but looking at the ever-changing bundle of demon ropes in Hong Yuan's hand, they can't help but feel frightened, and they have a feeling that they can't get out of trouble if they are targeted.
In order to test how powerful the demon rope in Hong Yuan's hand was, the Blood Bat King deliberately forced a team of vampire bats to rush in. As a result, in the blink of an eye, almost all of the thousands of vampire bats fell to the ground, some couldn't move after being whipped, some had their bodies pierced, and a few vampire bats couldn't fly out under the entanglement of the demon rope.
Hong Yuan acted neatly and neatly, comprehending and cultivating the peerless exercises of the half-demon old man on the spot. Compared with the Half-Demon True Scripture, the Dafa of Binding Demons is suitable for the cultivation of the human race, not limited to the half-demon clan, and is also more exquisite and powerful. The half-demon old man has been dead for hundreds of years, but his mantle has been passed down through a unique method.
The speed of Hong Yuan is getting faster and faster, the bundle of demon ropes is long and short, sometimes the attack is fierce, sometimes the attack is unpredictable, and the spirit is more and more concentrated, immersed in the cultivation world. Although the Dafa of Binding Demons cannot be compared with the War Pet Heavenly Scripture, after some enlightenment, Hong Yuan feels that this technique is just right for him, and it can be used to make up for the lack of great killing weapons such as the Vampire Scythe and the Divine Whip. Even, with the deepening of his enlightenment, he faintly felt that this exercise was simply tailor-made for himself, which could not only be used to kill the enemy, but also to capture all kinds of powerful demon beasts, and then collect them as war pets.
"Past, present, future...... , did the half-demon old man really foresee his arrival more than a hundred years ago?"
"What kind of place is Tenglong Ancient City, and what awaits you?"
Hong Yuan murmured in his heart, his cultivation became more and more energetic, and he was faintly uneasy. If the connection token in the Tenglong Ancient City can be easily obtained, I am afraid that it will not be my turn. Such a good treasure as a bundle of demon ropes, the half-demon old man does not pass it on to the wild bee queen Lone Lengmei but keeps it for himself, I am afraid that it is not only that Lone Lengmei is difficult to comprehend, it is very likely that there is something else.
Hong Yuan pondered while cultivating, and after seeing the alliance giant Ge Hong's method of turning his hands into clouds and turning his hands into rain, he became more and more calm.
It was getting dark, and night was rolling in from the horizon.
The capital of the Hualong Empire, the city of Hualong.
When Hong Yuan was concentrating and cultivating in the Wild Bee Cave, a shocking change suddenly occurred in the Hualong Empire, the palace was towering into the sky, and the Hualong Pillar, which had been hundreds of years old, suddenly cracked, and a divine dragon wrapped around the Hualong Pillar was nowhere to be found.
After the accident occurred, ministers such as the Qintian eunuch Shi Ling, the servant of the Ministry of Rites and the waiter of the Ministry of War entered the palace overnight to ask to see Emperor Hualong. At this time, it was learned that the Hualong Emperor Ji Nantian had left the capital at some point, and in panic, the ministers hurriedly went to the National Teacher's Mansion to find the National Teacher Zhao Xuanji, and were told that the National Teacher had also left the capital. When the news spread, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty panicked.
The Hualong Pillar is considered to be the foundation of the Hualong Empire, symbolizing the longevity and national fortune of the empire, and has been standing in the palace for hundreds of years. The Hualong Pillar suddenly cracked, according to the rumors on the Divine Ghost Continent, it means that the Hualong Empire will usher in a grand catastrophe, the empire will be twilight, and the building will fall!
While trying to find a way to find Emperor Hualong and Zhao Xuanji, the national teacher, the ministers tried their best to block the news, but there is no impermeable wall under the sky, and the more they cover up and blockade it, the faster the news will spread. The common people, as usual, were still busy with their lives, but the upper-class nobles and the major princes and kings were shaken. The empire is calm on the surface, but behind the scenes it is turbulent.
