Chapter 294: Reincarnation and Inheritance
readx;
In the shadows behind, a large number of powerful demonic beasts poured out like a tide, roaring and roaring, rushing towards this group of Sword Emperors who had killed countless demonic beasts. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info And, the most terrible thing is that these high-level demonic beasts are like crazy, and as soon as they come up, they are all kinds of elemental attacks!
Ice Arrows, Blades, Fireballs, Fire Serpents, Spikes, Boulders...... It was overwhelming, and besides, these elemental attacks were not like ordinary fireballs and boulders, and they were no threat to high-level martial artists. The elemental attacks emitted by these demonic beasts were all mixed with huge elemental power, and even the Sword Emperor powerhouses did not dare to take it hard!
Ling Xiao's eyes were like lightning, in this pitch-black environment, he was not affected at all, leading Song Mingyue and Shangguan Yutong to rush in one direction at an extremely fast speed, but after following Ling Xiao and them for a few steps, Qin Zhaoran grabbed the placket and carried them back.
Those three weak people ran away, and Qin Zhaoran didn't care about life or death, but this Gu family disciple was the biggest reliance on them to get out of here, and secondly, everyone saw the Gu family disciple come in with them, if they died here, the Qin family would be speechless, the Qin family might rule the world in the future and unify the hidden family sects, but that was the future, not the present!
Therefore, the small life of the disciples of the Gu family, they still have to protect it!
After such a while, he had already lost the trace of Ling Xiao and the three of them, Qin Zhaoran glanced back at the tide of high-level demonic beasts with hatred, and thought in his heart, that huge net, my Qin family must get it!
If my Qin family can't get it...... That old man, he blew up this place with his own hands! The Qin family can't get it, and the other family ...... Don't think about it!
Thinking like this, Qin Zhaoran loudly beckoned his own people to gather around him, and the people of several other families were the same, Qin Zhaoran glanced at the three disciples of the Jingwu family, and in the dark, he saw in a trance that elegance and arrogance would disappear from their faces, and in their place, there was a deep fear. I sneered in my heart: Now I know that I am scared? A few little fart children who don't know the height of the sky! You Jingwu family...... Sooner or later, it is also a stepping stone for the Qin family!
The vast majority of them here are strong people with the strength of the Sword Emperor, although they are on the run, but they are not flustered, occasionally a few turn back together, and jointly attack the faster Demon Beast that is chasing, several Sword Emperors work together to strike, the power is extremely powerful, and the Demon Beast will be killed on the spot.
In this way, a large group of elite powerhouses of various families and sects were chased by a group of high-level demonic beasts and fled in embarrassment, if this was known to the world, they would have to be shocked!
......
"Where are we going?"
Song Mingyue was curious in her heart, because her ears were getting farther and farther away from those people, Ling Xiao was holding Shangguan Yutong in one hand, and dragging her with the other, she had already run wildly to have a cup of tea, and even the roar of the beast over there sounded very faint, obviously, the three of them embarked on a completely different path from those people.
"They don't know where the right path is, and if they run with them, what will they be able to do?"
Shangguan Yutong was almost caught under Ling Xiao's armpit, very shy, fortunately, it was pitch black under her eyes, and she couldn't see anything, otherwise, she would have to be embarrassed.
Song Mingyue thought about it, it was the same thing, but based on her consistent understanding of Ling Xiao, Song Mingyue always felt that Ling Xiao was not the kind of person who was flustered, looking at the route he ran, it seemed to confirm this, Ling Xiao did not run around, but seemed to be looking for something.
"Let's ...... Looking for something. Ling Xiao took Shangguan Yutong and Song Mingyue to run wildly for so long, the true yuan in his body was running rapidly, and he didn't feel tired at all, as he spoke, his speed slowed down, and with a pair of eyes, he stared at a huge pillar in front of him, and then stopped.
"It's really strange, why didn't those demonic beasts chase after us?" Song Mingyue seemed to be talking to herself, indeed, the speed of the three of them was not faster than those Sword Emperor powerhouses, nor much earlier than them, but they didn't keep the demonic beasts chasing in their direction.
"yes, it feels a little wrong!"
Shangguan Yutong, who was put down by Ling Xiao, sorted out her emotions, and said softly, just at this time, talking about something else could hide the shyness in her heart.
"There's nothing wrong with it, because here, there are things that those demonic beasts are afraid of, and they don't dare to come here at all!" Ling Xiao said with great certainty, and then felt something in a circle around the pillar in front of him.
"Ah, then we still come here, wouldn't we be caught in the net!" Shangguan Yutong said in surprise.
Song Mingyue's eyesight could barely see this pillar clearly, it seemed to be slightly different from the others, there were shadows and shadows on it, and something was carved, but because it was too dark here, she couldn't see it clearly. After listening to Shangguan Yutong's words, Song Mingyue retorted: "The more dangerous the place, the more likely it is that there are good things!"
Shangguan Yutong was stunned for a moment, and then said: "It's the same argument as Ling Su's girl." ”
Finally, Ling Xiao's hand stayed in one place, and while pressing it down, he said with a smile: "Aren't you curious, where did so many demonic beasts come from? Why aren't they coming this way?"
"Yes, why?" Song Mingyue walked over, her eyes getting brighter and brighter in the night.
"Those demonic beasts are all puppet demonic beasts!" Ling Xiao said casually, his hand finally pressed it completely!
With a swipe, a door silently opened in front of Ling Xiao's eyes, and a black hole appeared, and there was no sound at all!
Seeing this, Song Mingyue felt that the cold hairs on her body suddenly rose, and a pure cold feeling made her shiver.
"It's... What is this?"
Shangguan Yutong also came over at this time, her eyes were not blind, she was vague, and she also saw a door appear on the pillar.
"Just go in and have a look. Ling Xiao behaved very calmly, in fact, he didn't know the bottom in his heart, just now he had been guessing, inside this ancient ruins, there was a strange smell everywhere, starting from the winding and endless street lamps above, to the sudden collapse of the road surface, the depth like an abyss below, and then to the strange and strange room, each room seemed to have a treasure.
Then there is the hall full of gold and crystal nuclei...... In the end, he was buried by a large pile of boulders, and imagine that if he was a little weaker in strength and too greedy in his heart, after experiencing this, it is estimated that his life will come to an end. If they don't die like this, then it's good, there are thousands of high-level puppet demonic beasts waiting below. This is something that no one could have imagined, but it is estimated that the people who designed this place did not expect that such a powerful team could be here at the same time!
If there were only a few powerhouses like the Sword Emperor Sword Sect, they would have died a long time ago and had no place to be buried! Thinking of this, Ling Xiao couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. The person who designed this place has a vicious mind, which is very rare!
It seems that this place was not originally intended for future generations!
Unlike the ruins that my sister Ling Su discovered, it was purely a place for people to study and cultivate in ancient times, even if there was a mechanism in it, it was designed by itself at that time to prevent outsiders from breaking in, and it was not intended for hundreds of thousands of years later.
Therefore, Ling Xiao guessed at that time that this place was not an ancient ruin! but a place specially opened up by a powerful person or family in ancient times and had a special role!
Coupled with the thousands of puppet demonic beasts here, Ling Xiao suddenly had a guess, could this be a place specially used by a certain family for experiments in ancient times! Because if there were only one or two puppet demonic beasts, it could also be interpreted as a certain strong person specially used to guard here, and there could be so many ...... There is only one explanation, and that is what someone is going to do with this horde of demonic beasts!
In the end, probably before anything could be done, something suddenly happened, and the place was hastily closed, and then countless mechanisms were set up, and everyone was gone, which is one of the reasons why no human remains have been seen until now, so this will not be a cemetery.
And Ling Xiao's purpose is to find a place to control all the mechanisms and demonic beasts!
Ling Xiao's original learning was extremely complicated, although he was not proficient in the way of organs, but at least he could reach the point of mastery, and after the completion of Jindan, he regarded night as day, Ling Xiao found that there was a strange secret mark, if it weren't for his kind of eyesight, I am afraid that this place would not be easy to see when it was brightly lit! Because this underground space is more than 20 meters high! The top of the head is all painted with complicated patterns, and if you don't look carefully, you can't find the secret mark that seems to guide the direction at all!
When escaping, Ling Xiao stubbornly followed this guide and came to this place all the way. Now it seems that he was right!
The three of them entered the pillar, as if the door made of metal closed silently, and at the same time, a soft light lit up from the heads of the three people, and then, click... With a soft sound, the ground under the feet of the three began to fall downward, and the two women were slightly nervous, not knowing what would greet them.
It didn't take long for about a dozen or so to stop, and then the door in front of them was opened, and in front of them... Suddenly the lights were bright, and the sudden brightness made the three people who had become accustomed to it in the dark almost unable to open their eyes, Ling Xiao's eyes were suddenly covered with a layer of golden yellow, shooting out two substantial rays of light, and the bright light in front of them dimmed at this moment.
When Song Mingyue and Shangguan Yutong both got used to the brightness in front of them, they were surprised to find that the place they were in now was also an underground hall! The difference was that compared to the above, this square hall was only more than twenty meters long, which seemed much smaller!
Moreover, there was a very thick pillar in the middle, which was the one that brought the three of them down. The height of the main hall is only five or six meters, and every short distance above it, there is a huge crystal chandelier! It emits a bright and dazzling light, illuminating the hair of the human hair! I don't know what kind of crystal nuclei can provide them with energy for so many years, or if the space inside this pillar is activated, and the bottom is lit up.
Facing the three of them was a huge statue of a god there, also made of gold, more than three meters high!
"This, this statue seems to be similar to the statues that were crushed by the boulder just now!" Shangguan Yutong frowned slightly and said, the main reason why no one was too concerned about those golden statues was that those golden statues looked carved by ordinary human beings! There were men and women, there were no exaggerated movements and costumes, and few of them carried weapons in their hands.
And the reason why people subconsciously think that this statue in front of them is because this huge golden statue is exuding a compelling coercion all the time!
Ling Xiao frowned slightly, and when he got closer, there was a table in front of the statue, and on the table, there was a scroll and a longsword with a simple appearance, and there was nothing else.
Ling Xiao walked closer and reached out to pick up the scroll on the table, Song Mingyue and Shangguan Yutong were still looking around a little nervously, for fear that there would be some terrifying mechanism.
"Hehe, I've arrived here, and any mechanism is actually meaningless!" Ling Xiao explained with a smile: "Any strong person will not like to make a mess of the place where he stays. As he spoke, he unfolded the scroll in his hand.
There was actually a painting on it, on which was a woman, handsome, tall, wearing a white gauze dress like a fairy, but Ling Xiao and the two women who came around were dumbfounded.
Because on this painting, it turned out to be Shangguan Yutong...... In other words, the woman above looks exactly the same as Shangguan Yutong!
Looking at this scroll again, Ling Xiao has also seen the material, it is the kind of special paper for magic scrolls that only existed in ancient times! The manufacturing process of this paper has been lost for tens of thousands of years!
In other words, although the woman in the painting is exactly the same as Shangguan Yutong, it is absolutely impossible to draw her!
"Sister Shangguan, this, what's going on......? Is this relic left by the ancestors of your family?" Song Mingyue asked in surprise, turning her head, but saw Shangguan Yutong's eyes a little dull, his eyes were red, his teeth were biting his lower lip hard, and his body was also slightly trembling, as if he was trying his best to control his emotions.
"Sister, what's wrong with you?" Song Mingyue asked softly, because seeing Shangguan Yutong's very sad appearance, coupled with this weird portrait, it gave people a feeling that was not very real.
Shangguan Yutong stretched out his hand and took the painting from Ling Xiao's hand, his green jade fingers trembled slightly, and he muttered to himself: "It's true, it's really like this!"
"Huh?" Ling Xiao was suddenly surprised to see that after the scroll reached Shangguan Yutong's hand, there were eight big characters in the blank space in the upper left corner!
Born from the heart, reincarnated and inherited!
"It's... What does this mean?" Ling Xiao frowned and asked, even if he cultivated in his previous life, he was no stranger to reincarnation, but when he arrived in this Canglan Continent, it was the first time he saw the word reincarnation in the written materials! Moreover, what these eight words meant, Ling Xiao couldn't analyze at all.
This made Ling Xiao a little uncomfortable, all along, he liked to take things into his own hands, many things that were extremely dangerous in the eyes of others, such as entering the Vatia Snow Mountain, one of the top ten forbidden places in the mainland, because Ling Xiao knew his ability very well, he could avoid most of the demonic beasts, on the contrary, for Ling Xiao at that time, human beings were more dangerous. Therefore, he dared to enter the Great Snow Mountain, dare to enter the Penzes Swamp, and dare to embark on the road of the polar ice sea.
Although it can't be said that there is no danger at all, at least, Ling Xiao can basically know what might happen.
But here, for the first time, Ling Xiao had a feeling of being controlled by others!
Shangguan Yutong suddenly spoke, and said quietly: "Ling Xiao, do you know why my sister left the family since she was a child and never went back?"
Ling Xiao shook his head, Shangguan Yutong's origin has always been a mystery, and Ling Xiao only knows that the family behind her is also a big family, in addition, he only knows that Shangguan Yutong's teacher is Baihuamen, he went to school in the Imperial Academy, and then stayed in school to teach, he was elegant and cold in front of others, and he was enthusiastic and hot in front of himself, but Shangguan Yutong rarely mentioned his family's affairs.
"My family is an ancient family! The family is not big, and there are some strong people at the level of the Sword Emperor, and like other family sects, there are also some secret methods to improve their strength. Shangguan Yutong said, with a look of pride on his face.
Song Mingyue was slightly stunned, and said in her heart that it was no wonder that she always felt that Shangguan Yutong had a similar aura on his body, it turned out that he was also from a great family, and there were some powerhouses at the level of the Sword Emperor...... It can't be a small family! It's just Shangguan Yutong's modesty!
"However, my family has a legend, and at the same time, it is also a curse! It has been around since ancient times!" Shangguan Yutong said this, glanced at the statue, and had a complicated look in his eyes: "It is said that it is the ancestor of the Shangguan family, who used to be extremely strong, and practiced a kind of exercise, this kind of exercise can be passed down from generation to generation......! Tens of thousands of years apart, it can also be inherited! This is like a kind of awakening, every thousand years, the chosen person will naturally awaken, and then, within a short period of time, there will be a great breakthrough! It is even possible to break through to the realm of the Sword Emperor within ten years!"
"That's a good thing! How can it be a spell?"
Song Mingyue asked curiously.
"If it's just like this, of course it's a rare good thing!" Shangguan Yutong sighed, and then said, "The problem is that none of the people who are chosen will live past the age of thirty. ”
"Ah, this, what's going on?" Song Mingyue was surprised.
"Hehe, I don't know, anyway, judging from the family records, there hasn't been a single disciple who has been inherited and has been able to escape this curse! There are already more than a dozen, all of them are of this fate, no matter how they die, in short, they have not lived past the age of thirty!"
"Then sister, you...... Is it also a disciple who has been selected and accepted the inheritance?" Song Mingyue looked puzzled, because according to Shangguan Yutong's statement, the selected inheritance disciples would be very strong, but why did Shangguan Yutong not reach the cultivation of the Demon Sword Master until now?
Shangguan Yutong smiled bitterly: "I should indeed be the one who was chosen, because every year ago, the people in the chosen family were born at exactly the same time! But because my parents loved me, in order to let me avoid this inheritance, after I was born, they sent me to the master, and the master was a person from the Condensation Palace, so I also entered the Condensation Palace." Indeed, I have not obtained any inheritance, and after so many years, nothing has come to the door, so in another seven or eight years, when I am thirty years old, if I can live to be that old, I will be able to return to the clan! Then, this spell will naturally be dissolved! It also confirms one thing, as long as you leave the clan, you can avoid the curse!"
"What about this...... What's going on?" Song Mingyue pointed to the scroll in Shangguan Yutong's hand.
"Alas, what should come is always impossible to hide, and it is born from the heart...... Hehe," Shangguan Yutong said with a helpless wry smile: "Before Ling Xiao took this scroll, there was no portrait on it, because I was here, so ...... In other words, this statue should be an ancestor of my Shangguan family, and it is likely that ...... It is also the source of the spell. ”
Ling Xiao then understood, why Shangguan Yutong's expression on his face was so complicated after seeing this golden statue, when he saw his ancestors, he should bow down, but in the face of that curse, if he could still face it calmly, he would not complain about his ancestors...... That's hell!
"Sister, could it be, this spell was not dropped by your ancestors, but ...... Your enemy?" Song Mingyue, who was born in a big family, also knows some legendary things, and she doesn't believe that someone will curse her children and grandchildren!
No matter how vicious and ferocious the demonic beast is, it will not eat its own children, let alone the human beings who are the head of the hundred spirits.
Shangguan Yutong shook her head slightly, she didn't know, but she finally didn't escape the fate of accepting the inheritance, and moreover, she even came to the idol of her ancestors!
Shangguan Yutong closed his eyes, shed two lines of tears, held the scroll in both hands, knelt in front of the golden statue, suddenly, a huge but soft force pushed Ling Xiao and Song Mingyue out of the distance, and then, from the top of the golden statue, suddenly burst out of a ball of golden and dazzling light, enveloping Shangguan Yutong inside!
Ling Xiao wanted to break in, but suddenly a mountain of power slammed into Ling Xiao's body, and at the same time heard a low shout: "You have obtained the Shangguan Family's Supreme Treasure Essence Golden Moonlight Armor, how can you interrupt the inheritance!"
Ling Xiao's body was like a kite with a broken string, throwing it out, hitting the wall behind it, and then falling down.
Song Mingyue hurried over, looking at Ling Xiao with a shocked expression, "Husband... You, are you alright?"
Ling Xiao shook his head, this Pure Gold Moonlight Armor was indeed unique, his body hit the hard wall so violently, and he was not injured!
Seeing that Ling Xiao was not injured, Song Mingyue's mood eased slightly, but she still asked nervously on her face, "Just now, who was talking?"
Ling Xiao secretly muttered in his heart, what kind of person was Shangguan Yutong's ancestor, and even a wisp of residual divine consciousness could be so powerful! At that moment just now, Ling Xiao suddenly felt that he was facing an invincible immortal, not a human being.
That's right, others don't know, but Ling Xiao knows too well, that god statue is left with a wisp of divine consciousness, and it can't even be counted as a clone! It can be so powerful, can it be said that this person has already become a god? Even those sword saints who have entered the holy realm must not have this kind of ability, right?
Leaving his own divine consciousness on the statue, in Ling Xiao's cognition, at least the cultivation of the distraction period is needed, what kind of cultivation is the distraction period equivalent to in this world? Ling Xiao According to the comparison of strength, thinking about it, I am afraid that only the peak realm of the martial arts of the continent can be compared with the sword god.
The ancestor of the Shangguan family was a sword god?Ling Xiao suddenly felt a burst of amusement, but thinking about the scale of this ruin, even if it was a powerhouse like the Sword Saint, I am afraid it would not be able to open it up!
Ling Xiao's face gradually became serious, if this was true, then it seemed that the ancestor of the Shangguan family should even be a powerhouse who lived before the Great Emperor of the Holy Domain!
"Husband, look, what is this?"
Song Mingyue pulled Ling Xiao's arm that was deep in thought, and pointed to a huge crystal ball with a diameter of one meter in the corner, only to see that above, many people were running in front, and a large group of demonic beasts behind were desperately chasing after them, and then, the number of demonic beasts seemed to be increasing! And they were all powerful! Therefore, some of the Sword Emperor powerhouses who were left behind, as long as they were surrounded, they would be torn apart by those crazy demonic beasts!
The two of them hurriedly got closer and looked at each other, and judging from the familiar faces, it was clear that they were the people who had just fled! The two looked at each other, could this be what was happening?
Then Song Mingyue pointed to a Sword Sect powerhouse who was caught in the sea of demonic beasts: "Look, this is a Sword Sect of the Sun family in the Tianshan Mountains!"
The crystal ball distorted the face of the Sword Sect a little, but the expression of grief and indignation seemed to be able to pass through the crystal ball into the hearts of the two of them, and after slashing a demonic beast that pounced on it with one sword, countless elemental attacks overwhelmingly attacked the Sword Sect!
The Sword Sect of the Sun Family of the Tianshan Mountains opened his mouth and roared angrily, and his body exploded with a bang! Killing all the demonic beasts within a range of dozens of meters around him! Flesh and blood were splattered everywhere, and the whole scene was extremely bloody!
Song Mingyue forcibly endured her churning stomach, her face turned pale, and she muttered, "It's terrifying, these demonic beasts are really terrifying! Those are all powerhouses above the Sword Sect!"
Ling Xiao was also surprised, he couldn't imagine that the ancient civilization had reached such a point, and the things over there could be reflected through the crystal ball!
At this time, they suddenly heard Shangguan Yutong moaning softly, and the two quickly turned around and saw that the golden light had disappeared.
The legacy ended so soon?
Ling Xiao thought in his heart.
