Xia Sheng's sword was very sudden and very unexpected.

Because this sword of his was not aimed at Emperor Jin, but stabbed straight at the barbarian high priest, Qi Nu Yan!

Mu Bei, who was swept off the peak for the second time by Emperor Jin, was not able to see this scene, so naturally he couldn't stop Xia Sheng's sword.

Emperor Jin was a little stunned by Xia Sheng's sword for a while, so he didn't subconsciously make a move to stop Xia Sheng's footsteps.

From Xia Sheng's point of view, his inference is indeed very reasonable.

Because in the Jinyuan Secret Realm that day, Hu Tianxing had clearly told Xia Sheng that the fundamental reason for Zhao Rui's rebellion was to disclose the truth about Emperor Gaozong's death, and according to the evidence in their hands, on the way to the Northern Expedition that day, those who attacked Emperor Gaozong included the crown prince and prince of the year, Bai Chuan, the Shenwei general who was responsible for leading the Northern Expedition, Zhu Yuanba, Xu Bei's descendant Xu Yidao, and the grassland king Nalan Ruoxue.

In addition to this, there is a fifth person, who is always hidden in the shadows, and no one can know his identity.

At that time, after listening to Hu Tianxing's story, Xia Sheng's first reaction, or the answer given by his intuition, was the high priest of the barbarians, Qi Nuyan.

For a very simple reason: because Emperor Gaozong died on the way to the Northern Expedition!

Where is the Northern Expedition?

A crusade against the barbarians, of course!

Under such circumstances, it would indeed be too unreasonable to say that the barbarians did not have a saint-rank powerhouse to participate in the assassination of Emperor Gaozong, and as everyone in the world knew, the only saint-level barbarian was the slave Yan!

Looking at today's Heavenly Sacrifice Ceremony, when Qi Nu Yan sacrificed the Tushan Banner and included Qin Xiaohua, Emperor Jin, and himself into the Tushan Small World, Pei Xu and Yang Tianxiao, the two human saints, did not have time to break through the barrier of the Tushan Banner in the shortest possible time, because they were entangled by the sudden Shun.

So, how did Emperor Jin rely on his own strength to repel Qi Nu Yan and severely damage Qin Xiaohua?

Xia Sheng didn't know the whole process of this battle, but from the moment he stepped on the top of Changbai Mountain, he could see the situation of the holy war on both sides, and it was clear that Shun and Emperor Jin were fighting against each other with one against two, with two fists against four hands.

Shun was able to do this because he was a powerhouse in the Dawn Breaking Realm.

So naturally, Emperor Jin wants to do this, and he must do so.

Or, Qin Xiaohua is the one who is forced to fight one against two!

In the same way, why is it that at this moment, Emperor Jin completely ignores the dangerous situation in the field, and still has a casual and elegant conversation with Xia Sheng?

Either it was because Emperor Jin had enough confidence in his own strength, or Emperor Jin knew very well that even if he used the so-called starry sky sacrifice technique, he would never make a move on himself.

Before Xia Sheng asked Emperor Jin if he had gone beyond the Divine Realm, Emperor Jin did not give a clear answer, so Xia Sheng directly used his actions to show that he seemed to be more inclined to the second possibility.

But how can the truth be so simple?

The next moment, the crimson long sword in Xia Sheng's hand had already fallen on top of Qi Nuyan's head, and a sword slashed at the cocoon of light composed purely of starlight.

"Sneer......"

The sword in Xia Sheng's hand was not the Haoran Sword, nor the Night Shadow Sword, but the Seven-Star Dragon Yuan that he had obtained from the Zhiyu Palace.

It stands to reason that if Xia Sheng really suspected that Yan Nu Yan was an ally of Emperor Jin, then the starry sky sacrifice technique he suggested before must also be a deception to Yan Nu Yan, and Emperor Jin would never stand still and stand by in order to save the life of this barbarian high priest at this time.

But on the contrary, Emperor Jin just smiled and watched this scene, without even moving a finger.

On the other side, Qin Xiaohua, the only one who knew the truth of the previous battle, tried to prop up her body and wanted to open her mouth to stop Xia Sheng, but it was already a little too late.

The seven-star dragon yuan in Xia Sheng's hand also bloomed with an incomparably bright starlight at this moment, connecting them with the end, and a picture of the Big Dipper Seven Stars was reflected in the light cocoon, which made people dizzy in front of their eyes.

As a result, the starlight on the body of the Ngunyan was pierced with a small gap, revealing a patch of scarlet inside.

With the starry sky as a sacrifice and the body as a sacrifice, at this time, the slave Yan is experiencing a critical moment between destruction and rebirth, and if it is eroded by external forces at this time, it will definitely fall short.

However, the seven cold stars above Xia Sheng's sword blade suddenly stopped in mid-air, and they didn't fall again.

Instead, a drop of blood between Xia Sheng's palm gently trickled down into the cocoon-wrapped body of Qi Nuyan.

No matter how much Emperor Jin knew about Luoqiu, and no matter how terrifying Qin Xiaohua's Shantang was, he would never know that the barbarian's starry sky sacrifice technique actually needed two people to complete!

Xia Sheng's sword was not to kill Yan Nuyan, but to help him complete the final sacrifice!

His only obstacle was Emperor Jin, who was closer to Emperor Jin, so he used this sword as a cover to successfully deceive Emperor Jin, injecting a piece of essence blood in his body into Emperor Jin's reborn body.

The next moment, hundreds of thousands of faint blue starlight erupted from the light cocoon, as if the night was drawn closer to the top of Changbai Mountain, where a new starry sky was condensed.

A phantom shadow broke out of the cocoon from the starlight and went directly towards the Jindi who was close at hand.

This time, Emperor Jin, who had always been calm, finally flashed a solemnity in his eyes.

The luxurious robe on his body blew back fiercely, and the sun, moon and stars on it were shining brightly, and it seemed that he wanted to compete with the starlight.

The twelve golden crowns on his head were disturbed by a variety of things, and the light sound of the jade beads hitting each other was like a rain downpour, crackling incessantly.

The body of the new life was not yet complete, it looked like a skinned animal, there was not half an inch of skin on the body, but all the bright red muscles were exposed to the air, but his strength was already one step closer, and it was at the peak of his life!

Of course, the Starry Sky Sacrifice Technique could not make Qi Nu Yan cross the threshold above the Holy Rank in an instant, but for a strong person of his strength, even if his comprehension of the Law of Strength was half an inch deeper, and the barbaric intent in his body was half a foot thicker, it was enough to achieve a qualitative leap.

The thin palm of the ghost-like hand had already hit Emperor Jin's body for the second time, grabbing it towards his heart, and the Zhengui in Emperor Jin's hand was bound by thousands of stars, and let out a trembling sound, as if there was a weight of tens of thousands of pounds, and it was difficult to resist the killing blow of Emperor Jin.

So Emperor Jin sighed softly.

"I didn't expect you to be able to push me to this extent. ”

The words fell, the heavy cold fog lingering in the Changbai Mountain quietly dispersed, the rolling snow water turned into a warm river, at the top of the mountain under the fire-burned wasteland, suddenly drilled out of the tender grass with new green, in less than half a breath of time to spread the earth, to the dying Changbai Mountain brought new life.

It's like time has accelerated countless times all at once, and the cold winter season has turned into the beginning of spring.

Then, a thunderbolt exploded out of thin air, waking up the fish, insects, birds and beasts sleeping in the winter snow, and everything was thriving and vibrant.

After the beginning of spring, it is a sting.
