Chapter 833: A Grudge Before the Long Years
Langya is a vast country located on the edge of the continent. The long coastline, the scattered archipelagos, and the hundreds of thousands of miles inland make up the main body of this country.
The vast desert as far as the eye can see, the cold and towering mountains, the endless sea that cannot be found after months of sailing, and the reckless forests inhabited by countless terrifying monsters and alien races...... On the edge of this land is a moat that not only mortals, but even less powerful monks cannot cross. Except for the Great Shifting Array located in the heart of the Langya Kingdom, only those strong people who have condensed their Dao Law into Dharma Phases and obtained great magical powers can fly across with their own strength.
In fact, it was also difficult for the Faxiang Monk to pass through the dangerous areas around the Langya Kingdom. If you really want to pass through it relatively safely, you need to cultivate at the level of heaven and man or even Dao fruit.
In the past, when the alchemy crow came here, it took the road of the Great Shift Array. For this reason, he waited for decades at the Waveless Cliff before finally waiting for the Great Shifting Array to begin. And now, he flew in the flesh, and after only half a month, he crossed the long journey that was like a moat at the beginning, and arrived at his destination.
The huge three-legged golden crow hovered high in the sky, and because of the concealment spell cast, it looked like an inconspicuous dark cloud from the ground. And the Alchemy Crow's powerful eyesight can allow him to ignore this distant distance and clearly see a qiē on the ground.
Although his strength has greatly improved, most of his former enemies are no longer his opponents, but Alchemy Crow is not reckless at all. He is here for revenge, not for his life. Among the four major families of Langya Kingdom, the Zhang and Li families have more than one Daoguo monk; Although the Wang family is in decline, there is a "incomplete Weng" Ding Zhizhi and his subordinates to help each other; The only weaker He family also has a powerful magic weapon left by the ancestors of the predecessors, and the attack is slightly insufficient, but the garrison strength is still above the other three. In the face of such an enemy, he really needs to be very careful.
The hatred of the past was more than 2,000 years ago. At that time, most of the enemies were no longer alive, and if there were any survivors, most of them were Dao Fruit monks, and the realm was not necessarily worse than that of alchemy Wulai. And if the original three great enemies were still alive, even if they did not achieve immortality, they would definitely have cultivated to the end of the Dao Fruit realm like the Alchemy Crow, standing in front of the threshold of life and death.
Therefore, when the alchemy crow arrived at its destination, it became more cautious. He cautiously concealed his figure, carefully observing the situation of the four major families.
At this glance, a strange thing can be seen.
The sphere of influence of the Langya Kingdom is roughly divided into two parts, the north is close to the mountains, which is the territory of the human race; The south is close to the dense forest and is the territory of the demon clan. The territory of the demon clan is ruled by dozens of large and small demon kings, and each other's territories are intertwined; The territory of the Terrans is divided into five large parts, except for the Great Shifting Array and the neutral area around it, the rest are each of the four major families.
But when Alchemy Crow looked at it at this moment, he found that the distribution of forces in the Terran territory had changed greatly: the neutral zone around the Great Shifting Array had shrunk a lot, and a large area of territory was occupied by a force he had not seen before; Among the four major families, the power of the Wang family has almost shrunk, leaving only a small city and its surroundings; The situation of the Zhang and Li families is slightly better, although it has declined a little compared to the beginning, it is still so-so; The strangest thing is the He family, the alchemy Wu looked at the art of looking at qi, but he didn't find the luck of the He family. Entrenched in the former He family's sphere of influence are several small families.
"What's going on?" He muttered secretly, pondered for a while, spread his wings and flew to the border of the demon clan's territory, and then turned into a monster with a hawk head and a human body, hiding his cultivation to the level where he had just stepped into the realm of Dao Fruit, and descended.
The alchemy crow disguised himself as a demon who had found the path to immortality, traveled everywhere to find opportunities, and tempered the Dao heart, and inquired about it on the border for more than ten days. He dealt with a few demon kings who hurriedly came over to show his goodwill, and also defeated two demon kings in the early stage of Dao Guo, proving that he was not a raptor but not a river, and he did have excellent strength, and finally got the information he wanted - far more detailed information than ordinary folk rumors.
About a thousand years ago, there was a Xiao family in Langya Kingdom. They were in the Wang family's sphere of influence at that time, and they had a fierce conflict with the Wang family. The power of the Xiao family was unexpectedly strong, and the Wang family had several confrontations with them, but they were all defeated and lost, and their power shrank again and again. So he paid a huge price, won over the other three, and found a lot of foreign aid to join forces to encircle and suppress the Xiao family.
That great war took place more than 300 years ago, and it was an earth-shattering battle, and it is amazing in the entire history of Langya Kingdom. In the face of the alliance of the four major families, the Xiao family also took out their hole cards - but it turned out that they not only had an immortal true immortal in charge, but even a fellow Taoist friend who was also an immortal true immortal as a helper!
The four major families joined forces, plus those foreign aid found through various channels, and gathered nearly twenty Dao Fruit Monks. As a result, in that battle, most of the nearly twenty Dao Fruit seniors died, and the rest were all wounded. As a result, the Xiao family swaggered to occupy the dominant position in the Langya Kingdom, and became the only undoubted name among the human forces in the Langya Kingdom, and even many demon kings in the demon clan expressed their respect and obedience to it.
As for the defeated four families, the Zhang and Li families did not contribute much at the beginning, and the losses were not too great; The Wang family suffered extremely heavy losses, Ding Zhenzhi and several other masters were all killed, if it weren't for the compassion of the true immortal who had a good relationship with the Xiao family, I was afraid that they would be uprooted; The worst is the He family - their biggest reliance is a magic weapon passed down from their ancestors, but it was destroyed in that battle, and they also lost the lives of almost all the masters in the clan. As a result, the He family declined rapidly, and today, three hundred years later, even the direct descendants of their family cannot be found......
Alchemy Crow got these news, sighed for a long time, and then said goodbye to those demon kings who deliberately befriended him and went to the territory of the human race.
He first went to the former He family's sphere of influence to find the descendants of the He family.
This is naturally not a persimmon picking up a soft pinch, but the alchemy crow disdains to hunt down the orphans of the He family, but he wants to make things clear, and by the way, he will pass the news out.
The hundred-legged insect is dead but not stiff, even if the He family has fallen so far, there must be some family background, just "spreading the news", I think they can still be competent.
The enemy has weakened to this point, and the alchemy crow has changed his mind and decided to visit one by one in a dignified manner to settle the old grudges.
The residence of the descendants of the He family is not a secret, although they no longer have even the smallest cave blessed land, they are still a great force in the mundane. It's just that the descendants of the He family have fallen into living by running some restaurants and granges, and they are mixed in the mundane, and from the perspective of the immortals, they are indeed very down.
Alchemy Crow revealed his identity and came to the door, and the descendants of the He family naturally panicked. In the past, when they invaded the Yunzhong Immortal Mansion, although the He family did not have Dao Guo monks to send, they also sent a lot of people to loot. Now that the bitter lord has come to the door, they have no power to resist, how can they not be afraid?
In the face of the imminent crisis, each house has its own support, and no one refuses to admit that they are the head of the He family, which is in stark contrast to their usual struggle for power and power, and they want to seize the status of the long house.
Alchemy Wu watched coldly, looking at their ugly expressions, there was no feeling of happiness in his heart, just endless sighs.
What is an immortal? Man is immortal in the mountains. The so-called "people in the mountains" is to transcend the disturbance of red dust and be at ease. The descendants of the He family are actually okay with their cultivation, and there are at least two or three Jindan monks, but seeing that they are so unbearable, where is there still the spirit of immortals!
He was not in a hurry, and waited patiently for a few days, and finally the He family really nominated a "family master". Just looking at the sad and desperate look on the old man's face, alchemy Wu didn't say kill him for revenge, and he didn't even have the interest in beating him.
But when he thought about it, a bad idea came to him.
Facing the old man who was forced to die, not only did he not shout and kill, but patted the other party on the shoulder, loudly praising the old man for his backbone and courage, claiming that what Lian valued most in his life was a hero. Since this old man dared to come forward to confess for the grievances of his ancestors, the old grievances were revealed, and he also gave the old man a magic weapon.
Well, a magic weapon.
Alchemy Crow originally had a lot of treasures on his body, and all the assets of the four immortals in the clouds were concentrated on him alone, and there were those given by Wu Jie, which could really be described as a great immortal. And with the accumulation of years, because of the cultivation with him in the equivalent of the core of the high-grade spiritual vein, many of these treasures have been channeled and enlightened and turned into magic weapons.
What he gave to the old man was a magic weapon flying sword. The name of this sword is called the cold mantle, which is refined from the raw material of Xuan Ice, and the Yuan Spirit in the sword is originally an ice snake soul, and after getting it, it will turn into a fat and fat hornless dragon.
Han Yan is cold and cruel by nature, and it is not compatible with the character of the alchemy crow, so it is not distressing to send it out. This sword magic power has almost touched the edge of the Dao Fruit realm, and when it reaches the old man's hands, he immediately rebels against the guest, and uses the sword to control the people, and the "head of the He family" has become his subordinate.
As for how the head of the He family, who finally has a big backer, will treat those clansmen who forced him to die, it has nothing to do with the alchemy crow.
Anyway...... Since they forced people to die in the first place, they should be mentally prepared for revenge!
After settling a quarter of the grievances of the past year, Alchemy Wu suddenly felt that his thoughts were clear, and his mood was much happier. So he then came to the Wang family, and also directly identified himself, asking the Wang family to give him an explanation for his past grudges.
Although this Wang family is down, its foundation is much stronger than that of the He family. In the face of the alchemy crow who came to seek revenge, the head of the Wang family calmly came forward and expressed his willingness to lead the two elders of the clan to atone for the crime with their lives, just begging the alchemy crow not to kill and let go of the descendants of the Wang family.
In the face of this kind of tough guy, Alchemy Crow has no interest in seeking revenge. After pondering for a while, he asked the head of the Wang family and the two elders to chop off a finger each, and refined these three fingers into statues of three sworn brothers, and asked them to enshrine them in the ancestral hall and enjoy incense as their ancestors.
To be honest, this request is not reasonable, but it is generous enough. The head of the Wang family immediately agreed, and selected three of his descendants to change their surnames to inherit the surnames of Jinyan Weng, Huangmei Jushi and Sun Xuechong.
The human race inherits the family name of the demon race, which is really a bit funny. Alchemy Wu pondered for a long time, but always felt that this matter was a bit ridiculous. But he didn't want to pursue anything more, so he left.
If it is according to the thoughts of those who are vicious, such a great feud will definitely be avenged. Killing the descendants of the enemy is not a single one, and it can be regarded as hearty. However, Alchemy Crow has been cultivating the Dao Law over the years, and he has been deeply edified, and most of the evil thoughts in his heart have dissipated. took revenge on the He family's side again, and now it is the time when he is in a good mood, and when he encounters a group of tough guys who he looks pleasing to the eye, he simply forget it.
If you can afford to take it and put it down, you are a hero.
As a victim, it is his private right to forgive or not, and no one has the right to point fingers at him.
When Alchemy Wu visited the Zhang family, he finally met his opponent - among the children of the Zhang and Li families who participated in the robbery of the Yunzhong Immortal Mansion, there were still those who have survived to this day, and they have all become Dao Fruit monks!
Of course, these old guys were unwilling to pay for their original crimes, so their choice was to join forces, gather a group of masters, and set up an ambush to kill the alchemy crow.
In the face of an avenger, confession is a way out, begging for forgiveness is a way out, and refusing to repent is also a way out.
Merely...... This road is a dead end!
After all, the alchemy crow was not well planned, so he fell into an ambush. Trapped in a formation that specializes in restraining the bird demon, five or six Dao Fruit monks joined forces to preside over the large array, using the power of the three lights of heaven, earth and man to turn into a steady stream of thunder, trying to grind him to death.
Faced with a desperate situation, Alchemy Crow struggled several times, but failed to break through, but suffered several injuries in a row. In desperation, he took out the things that Wu Xie gave him to defend himself.
A swarthy bead that shone slightly.
"The name of this thing is Little Thunderbolt, and it is quite a powerful thunder bead." At the beginning, Wu Xie said, "When you encounter a danger that you can't resist, you can throw it out, remember to run as far away as possible, or use the spirit talisman I gave you to protect yourself." ”
The alchemy crow was trapped in the big array, and he couldn't run if he wanted to, so he had to throw a small thunderbolt and then urged the spirit rune left to him by Wu Jie, and a bright fire protected his body.
Then, the sky shook and the sun and the moon were gone.
When the alchemy crow, who was dizzy from shock, spit out the soil in his mouth and crawled out of the depths of the big pit that was at least a hundred zhang deep, the big array and the Dao Fruit monks who had set up an ambush to kill him had disappeared without a trace, and all that was left was a huge pit, which looked like a star had smashed down from the sky.
Alchemist Crow was too lazy to collect the corpses of his enemies - not to mention that even if he wanted to, he couldn't find anything to collect for a while. There is floating earth all around, not to mention corpses, not even a slightly intact stone can be found, where is there anything to clean up!
He was resting here when suddenly two rays of light suddenly appeared, and in front of him he turned into two monks of extraordinary bearing.
The person on the left has a rather young face, handsome and mighty, and a wave of atmospheric luck rises to the sky above his head, and there is a purple aura in his luck, and he knows at a glance that he is a master of both luck and strength.
The man on the right is a tall, chubby and amiable middle-aged man, carrying a large cauldron on his back, looking easy-going. There is a pleasant smell of grains on the body, accompanied by a clear smell of fireworks, obviously a character who has been messing around in the kitchen all year round.
These two people have completely different looks and temperaments, but they both have an extraordinary momentum. Alchemy Crow can also be regarded as well-informed, and he can see it at a glance, knowing that they are all characters who have stepped through the threshold of life and death and achieved immortality.
"You demon bird is really vicious!" The young man looked at the crater-like scene around him and said unhappily, "It's just a matter of seeking revenge, why do you use such murderous methods?" Do you know how many innocents have been hurt in this move! ”
Alchemy Wu frowned, and asked with a sneer: "I myself am at a critical juncture, where can I take care of the innocent?" Besides, even if there is a mistake, you have to blame those who set up the ambush here, how can you blame me? ”
The young man's eyes suddenly filled with anger, and he was about to make a move. But the middle-aged man stopped him, looked at the alchemy crow carefully, and asked, "I see that your cultivation is quite familiar, but the fire department of the legendary Fighting God line?" ”
Alchemy Wu was stunned for a moment, but unexpectedly, this person saw through his exercises at a glance and nodded in response.
"Even if you are a person in the fighting god, you can't kill innocents indiscriminately!" The youth said.
"I still have to ask." The middle-aged man said, "So...... How did you get this exercise? ”
"Naturally, it was passed down by my master."
Hearing the word "master", the eyebrows of both of them jumped - a figure who can make a great demon in the late stage of Dao Guo be honored as "master", no matter what you ask, it must be a true immortal of the Yang God!
"Then what do you call your master?"
"My old man's name is not a child."
When these six words were spoken, the young man's face suddenly changed greatly, and the previous ferocious intent disappeared, but he showed a little surprise and fear, and couldn't help but ask loudly: "Which one knows Feizi?" ”
Alchemy Wu suddenly felt that something was wrong, but he didn't have the idea of hiding it in front of the two Yang God True Immortals, and replied calmly: "Yujing faction, Bingyun Building, Zhifeizi." ”
"You talk nonsense!" The young man shouted, "What kind of character is Zhifei Zhenjun, how can there be such a bad subordinate as you!" ”
At this time, Alchemy Wu was stunned, he naturally knew what the word "True Monarch" meant, but he never thought that in less than two thousand years, Wu Xie had actually achieved the Cave Void True Monarch!
He thought for a moment and took out a jade talisman.
Urging the jade talisman, Wu Jie's figure appeared in the air, and said gently: "In the next is the Yujing faction Zhifeizi, if my disciple has any offense, please be merciful - of course, if you commit any heinous and heinous things, you can bring them to the Yujing faction, Wu Mou, as a righteous person, will never cover up for personal gain!" ”
The figure disappeared, and the young man stood there dumbfounded, his face turning blue and red, and he didn't know what he was thinking. The middle-aged man laughed and pulled up the alchemy crow sitting on the ground.
"It turns out that you are Wu Zhifei's disciple - it would be good to say no earlier!"
“…… Do my seniors know my master? Alchemy Wu was stunned for a moment, and asked cautiously, "I don't know what the predecessors call it?" ”
"Seniors don't dare to be, my name is Zhang Guangli, and I am an old acquaintance with your master!" The character of the great demon in the late stage of Dao Guo who is honored as "master", regardless of asking, must be a true immortal of the yang god!
"Then what do you call your master?"
"My old man's name is not a child."
When these six words were spoken, the young man's face suddenly changed greatly, and the previous ferocious intent disappeared, but he showed a little surprise and fear, and couldn't help but ask loudly: "Which one knows Feizi?" ”
Alchemy Wu suddenly felt that something was wrong, but he didn't have the idea of hiding it in front of the two Yang God True Immortals, and replied calmly: "Yujing faction, Bingyun Building, Zhifeizi." ”
"You talk nonsense!" The young man shouted, "What kind of character is Zhifei Zhenjun, how can there be such a bad subordinate as you!" ”
At this time, Alchemy Wu was stunned, he naturally knew what the word "True Monarch" meant, but he never thought that in less than two thousand years, Wu Xie had actually achieved the Cave Void True Monarch!
He thought for a moment and took out a jade talisman.
Urging the jade talisman, Wu Jie's figure appeared in the air, and said gently: "In the next is the Yujing faction Zhifeizi, if my disciple has any offense, please be merciful - of course, if you commit any heinous and heinous things, you can bring them to the Yujing faction, Wu Mou, as a righteous person, will never cover up for personal gain!" ”
The figure disappeared, and the young man stood there dumbfounded, his face turning blue and red, and he didn't know what he was thinking. The middle-aged man laughed and pulled up the alchemy crow sitting on the ground.
"It turns out that you are Wu Zhifei's disciple - it would be good to say no earlier!"
“…… Do my seniors know my master? Alchemy Wu was stunned for a moment, and asked cautiously, "I don't know what the predecessors call it?" ”
"Seniors don't dare to be, my name is Zhang Guangli, and I am an old acquaintance with your master!"
