Chapter 160: Cannibalism
The Xuandou Mountain is thousands of feet high, suspended in the middle of the Xuandou City, and the warriors who live here or pass by all cast awe-inspiring eyes on it.
After suppressing tens of thousands of miles of territory for thousands of years, the prestige of the Xuandou Star Palace is enough to make the older generation of powerhouses go from dawn to darkness without stopping.
On this day, a team of people quietly entered the city, if someone is careful, they will find that many of them have a vague depressing aura, and they are all soul-melting powerhouses.
This group of centaurs settled in a remote courtyard near Xuandou Mountain.
The courtyard is very chic, it can be seen that the original owner is a person with interest, a few spotted bamboos are planted in a quiet environment, leading to a slow stream, tinkling, flowing around the stone table and stone chairs for a week, and then flowing out of the courtyard.
Next to the stone table was an ancient peach tree, but at this time it had lost all its leaves, and the curled dead leaves were sprinkled on the table, occasionally moving with the wind, and Ji Jiu was sitting next to him, drinking tea in small sips.
The others stood before him and listened to him.
Su Jin'an and Yue Bujue, who had the Transformation Divine Stage, and the rest of the miscellaneous Soul Melting Martial Artists were all the top powerhouses among the forces that had recently been subdued, Liu Yuanye, the sect leader of the Tanyue Sect, and Zhang Yiliang of the Sancai Sword Sect......
It can be said that this force is already comparable to the top first-class forces.
Xiao Yiming, the palace master of the Xuandou Star Palace, is at least in the middle stage of the Transformation of the Gods, and one person is enough to deal with Su Jin'an and Yue Bujue, in addition to the dark chess Xiao Yiqing, in addition to the Xuandou Star Palace, there is another newly promoted Transformation God powerhouse, named Xiao Changkong.
These are the current situation of the Xuan Dou Star Palace that Ji Jiu currently knows.
"Tianzun, why don't we rush in directly now, the Xuan Dou Star Palace is not ready to be captured. Yue Bujue didn't understand Ji Jiu's approach, with their current overall strength, a mere Xuan Dou Star Palace was really not enough, although Xiao Yiming was famous, and it was rumored that he had the opportunity to get the guidance of an immortal.
Ji Jiu still lowered his head and drank tea, he didn't really care about his words, he had his own arrangements, these people just had to listen, and understood that they didn't need it.
"I think Tianzun is waiting for an excellent opportunity, after all, the Xuan Dou Star Palace has a deep heritage, if we rush in, we may face unexpected results. The mountain protection array of the Xuandou Star Palace, I heard that it was improved by Xiao Yiming, although it is usually not obvious, it is still not to be underestimated. Tanyue Sect Master Liu Yuanye said in a low voice.
His words were also more reasonable, and the others nodded thoughtfully, but Yue Bujue didn't care, with this mysterious and powerful Tianzun, what Xiao Yiming is not like a chicken.
He just couldn't guess or see through this person's mind.
Everyone waited slowly, Ji Jiu was blowing cold tea, his expression was very leisurely, what he was waiting for was indeed a good opportunity, and now it was up to the deputy palace master Xiao Yiqing.
At this moment, on the Xuandou Mountain, Xiao Yiqing, who had finished cultivating as usual, got up from the main hall, shook his robe, with a contemplative and complex color on his face, and immediately took out a simple wooden sword from his arms, the wooden sword was dyed half red by blood, and the surface was carved with strange lines, revealing a cold and evil feeling.
He sighed several times, hesitating in his heart.
On one side is his biological brother, and on the other side is his own life.
He was caught in a dilemma.
As long as he inserts this wooden sword into his brother's heart, he will be able to sit on the throne of the palace master of the Xuandou Star Palace, and no one will be able to restrain him from now on, except for that Tianzun, of course, but he has promised that he will not interfere in his life, and he will not take over the Xuandou Star Palace.
Xiao Yiqing originally didn't believe it, but when he saw that Yue Bujue's treacherous and cunning old man had surrendered to Tianzun, as the vice president, he was constrained everywhere like himself, and if he dared to do it, he naturally had enough benefits.
Of course, on the one hand, it is also because of the restraint of prohibitions in the sea of knowledge, and their lives are now tightly held in the hands of Tianzun, and if they do not obey his orders, it is tantamount to suicide.
Very entangled in his heart, Xiao Yiqing finally chose that evil thought, left the main hall, and walked towards the retreat place of the elder brother in the back mountain, and the disciples along the way all saluted him one by one, and their attitudes were extremely afraid, but what made them strange was that the deputy palace master had changed today.
He doesn't seem to even look at them when he walks.
You know, he usually enjoys the fear he shows.
There is a quiet mansion opened up in the back mountain, which is usually strictly forbidden for disciples to set foot in, and the mysterious and powerful formation patterns are carved around the mansion, if you can't find the right path, the strong person who turns into a god will be injured if he enters by mistake.
Xiao Yiqing knew that these formation patterns were carved by his brother himself, and he had the opportunity to get the guidance of the immortals and found a cave mansion, which recorded many things, including exercises, formation patterns, refining weapons, and alchemy...... Varied.
The brothers have their current status and strength, and it can be said that they are completely inseparable from this opportunity.
Brother Zeng Yan had two golden pills left in the cave mansion, and he gave one to himself, so Xiao Yiqing himself could be promoted all the way to the god with his inferior talent.
But thinking of anything else, a trace of resentment and unwillingness flashed in Xiao Yiqing's eyes.
There are many methods in the cave, my brother has mentioned, but he never teaches himself, no matter how he asks for it, the result is the same.
It's like a piece of delicious fat in front of you, so hungry that you drool, but you never give yourself food.
Completely suppressing this thought, Xiao Yiqing took a deep breath, trying to make himself look the same as usual in all aspects, and then found the right path towards the mansion.
After a while, after passing through the multi-storey building, a quiet courtyard appeared in front of Xiao Yiqing's eyes.
In the courtyard, there was a hint of depressing breath coming, far beyond the ordinary transformation period, which made Xiao Yiqing feel a little uncomfortable.
His brother is now far superior to him, reaching a mysterious point.
As soon as he thought of this, Xiao Yiqing was even more unwilling to be jealous.
......
......
"Yiqing, you're looking for me, but what's wrong?"
Xiao Yiming is a middle-aged man with a handsome face, slightly frosty sideburns, deep eyes, like a starry sky, revealing wisdom and profundity, and his body is like a family bearing.
He was dressed in a cloud-patterned moon white robe, sitting cross-legged in the room, watching Xiao Yiqing push the door and walk in at this moment, as if he was confused.
He was naturally extremely familiar with his younger brother's breath, so he sensed it as soon as he could, waking up from his cultivation.
But......
"Brother, haven't you broken through this retreat?" Suppressing the uneasiness and nervousness in his heart, Xiao Yiqing said seemingly indifferently.
He knows better than outsiders that his brother was in the middle stage of the god transformation thousands of years ago, and now he is afraid that he is not far from the late stage of the god transformation.
"I've already touched that threshold, and it's not far away. Xiao Yiming shook his head and said with a light smile, his younger brother has never let himself worry about it since he was a child, and he often causes trouble, plus his parents died early, and his brother is both a father and a mother, and now it also gives him a headache.
"Brother......" Xiao Yiqing suddenly swallowed what he was about to say.
"It seems, are you in trouble again? Now that you are also an ancestor-level person in the palace, how can you know how to play with women all day long, let's say, who is the lady who has ruined this time?" Seeing Xiao Yiqing's appearance of wanting to speak and stopping, Xiao Yiming couldn't help but turn pale, pretended to be serious, and scolded with a smile.
His brother's bad virtues and that hobby, he knows very well, it is related to his brother's experience in the early years, he once had a fiancée who was in love, but one day he was robbed by a powerful senior brother, and he forced his fiancée in front of him.
That scene can be said to have left an extremely deep shadow in his younger brother's heart, so Xiao Yiming is now very indulgent to him, plus Xiao Yiqing's own strength is not weak, and he can't cause any big trouble.
"I didn't, how could I come to you with such a thing. Xiao Yiqing couldn't help but be embarrassed, the wooden sword in his arms was faintly hot at the moment, which made his heart feel cold, knowing that it was Tianzun who was reminding him that it was time to start.
But how do you do that?
"Yiqing, I've been full of demons recently, and I don't know if I can get over that hurdle, maybe the next time I hit the late stage of the gods, it will be the day I die, if someone bullies you in the future, I'm afraid it will be difficult to protect you. Xiao Yiming stared at him for several breaths, and after a while, his eyes showed sadness.
"What, brother...... Don't lie to me, you are so powerful, how can you still be like this?" Xiao Yiqing was shocked when he heard this.
"Hey, there were too many regrets left in the early years, and now it's like this. Xiao Yiming shook his head and sighed, "I often think of the days when it was cold and frozen, and my parents died early, so we hid in the dilapidated thatched hut and snuggled up to each other. I finally caught a small fish from the frozen river, but it was stolen by a wild cat, and you were crying at the time, no way, I learned the method of lying on the ice and begging for carp, but I didn't ask for anything, and I was almost frozen to death. Even he laughed at this.
Xiao Yiqing couldn't help but be dumbfounded, and a warm flow flowed through his heart. I didn't expect it to happen thousands of years ago, my brother still remembers it so clearly, in that era, he was able to survive, but he was supported by his brother alone.
Unconsciously, a lot of grievances just now quietly dissipated, Xiao Yiqing began to hesitate, he murdered his brother, can he do this kind of thing?
"Yiqing, don't be half-hearted along the way of cultivation, don't be disturbed by external objects, keep your own heart, and do what you think is right. Xiao Yiming smiled, his eyes were deep, he got up and walked up to him, patted him on the shoulder, and said earnestly.
"Brother, I'm ......" Xiao Yiqing's words suddenly swallowed into his throat.
He suddenly realized that he couldn't move, he couldn't even speak, only his eyes could still move.
"Why do you want to kill me?" Xiao Yiming collected all the smiles on his face in a blink of an eye, was indifferent, and asked coldly, his cultivation method is very peculiar, and he is extremely sensitive to all kinds of qi, anger, resentment, murderous energy...... The moment Xiao Yiqing stepped into this courtyard, he sensed that murderous aura and resentment.
Just now, an extremely thick aura came from his brother's chest.
Xiao Yiming penetrated everything in an instant.
"......" Xiao Yiqing still had a confused expression on his face, he hadn't reacted yet, how did he notice it, brother?
Rumble!!!
The next moment, Xiao Yiqing's eyes suddenly widened, his chest ached sharply, as if he had been penetrated by some sharp weapon, and then the prohibition in the sea of consciousness exploded instantly, and he only heard a loud sound of a landslide and a crack, and then his eyes darkened, and his consciousness disappeared.
"It's ...... Self-destructing?"
Xiao Yiming was shocked, his face was extremely ugly, and he hurriedly opened the spiritual power cover, but the self-explosion of the god powerhouse was so terrifying, he instantly vomited blood and flew out, and he didn't know how many buildings were destroyed along the way.
The martial artists in Xuandou City were also instantly frightened by this terrifying fluctuation, the void distance trembled, like a piece of paper, and they stared blankly at the huge mushroom cloud rising from the sky on Xuandou Mountain, speechless for a long time.
"The time has come. ”
In the courtyard in the city, Ji Jiu saw this scene, squinted his eyes, put down the tea, and said lightly to the shocked people.
