In the claustrophobic dungeon, the old man raised his hollow eyes like rotten wood, and his shriveled finger bones were faintly visible, as if they were only wrapped in a layer of dry skin, without a bit of flesh and blood. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

The black robe was stained with blood and dragged on the ground, leaving a trail of blood. The black qi gathered in the old man's body, eating away at a guard who had just died, and the three stone pillars nearby were still tied to three guards who had also just died.

The second prince, Chu Tianba, trembled and knelt down on the mossy stone slab of the underground palace, and said resignedly: "Ancestor, this is already the third, do you want it?"

Three, refers to three corpses, corpses that have been eaten by black qi.

The old man was unmoved, huddled in a ball, and let the black qi suck the flesh and blood, and after a while, he spit out a mouthful of dirty gas, and said in a muffled voice: "Good job, three, it's enough for the time being, you must pay close attention to the young man with the body of the sun reported by Hongxue, as long as I get the body of the sun, I can see the light of day again, and I don't need these useless guards to continue my life." ”

"Of course, you have done this well, and when I recover, you will be the new monarch of the Chu State. "The old man was extremely happy to learn that the body of the sunshine had appeared again, and promised to help Chu Tianba win the throne when things were done.

Chu Tianba's mouth promised, his heart was painful, in order to gain the support of the old monster, he didn't know how many guards he killed to continue the life of the old monster.

These guards were all Chu Tianba's personal guards, and they were lured to the underground palace by Chu Tianba to kill them without knowing it, and they didn't even know the reason for their death.

Chu Tianba also knew the current situation, the civil and military officials were all biased towards him, and the most powerful Nangong family was also pulled over, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't get the support of the Chu Clan Elder Pavilion.

Without the support of the Chu Elder Pavilion, even if he won the throne, he would only be a puppet like the old monarch, and he would not have the right to freedom of action.

He knew in his heart that those old guys of the Chu clan, especially the long-bearded elders, were more inclined to Chu Tianyu, and he thought about getting rid of Chu Tianyu, but he didn't know Chu Tianyu's whereabouts.

Chu Tianba guessed that it might be the Elder Pavilion that hid Chu Tianyu.

Therefore, Chu Tianba pinned his hopes on the mysterious withered old man who claimed to be the ancestor of Chu in the underground palace, he had never seen the face of the old man in the twilight, and every time he entered the underground palace, he knelt respectfully from a distance.

Chu Tianba didn't want to kneel, let alone whisper, but it wasn't until one time that the old man at dusk released a cloud of black qi and instantly devoured the guards beside him that Chu Tianba knew that there was an old monster living in the dungeon who had lived for an unknown number of years.

In order to take the throne, he needs the help of the old monster, not so much relying on it as the cooperation of the two, each taking what he needs, for his own purposes.

Chu Tianba knelt on the ground with a respectful face and said, "I'll go to the Star Chess Pavilion to pay attention to the movements of the secret realm." ”

In the Xingqi Elder Pavilion, several elders surrounded the two broken pieces of life and death jade, and they talked endlessly.

The strength of the chief elder white eyebrows has reached the strength of the advanced realm of the Spirit Breaking Realm, and his eyebrows are white from birth, so white that even his hair is white.

Bai Mei is not tall, but no one dares to challenge his position as the chief elder of the Star Chess Academy, because his eyebrows can kill, and he is still white eyebrows stained with blood.

Bai Mei stiffened his face, stared at the shattered life and death jade suspiciously, and said, "Long beard, did you see with your own eyes that after that young man dripped into blood, the life and death jade was shattered?"

Long Beard touched the beard that hung down to his waist and affirmed, "I didn't see that young man, but it is certain that it was because of the young man's spirit blood that the Jade of Life and Death was shattered." ”

After hearing this, the other elders all showed incredulous expressions.

"I didn't expect that the six ancient spirit clans have been destroyed since the catastrophe of heaven and earth ten thousand years ago, and the bloodline of the spirit clan has been destroyed one after another, and now there are people from the spirit clan who have awakened the bloodline to appear in the capital, it is incredible, is it possible that the spirit clan will become strong again?"

"Excluding the sluggish Chu people, which clan will it be? Qin, Yao, Hai, Gu, or Jiang?"

"The Qin clan relies on the Shangwu Continent Qin State will not let the bloodline awakened clansmen risk coming to the capital, the medicine clan occupies the Medicine King Valley, and if there is a big event, it will only send people from the Medicine King Valley out, and it is impossible to send the Spirit Clan bloodline awakening clansmen, the Sea Clan is mysterious and unpredictable, located in the vast sea, no one knows whether the Sea Clan still exists or not, the Gu Clan and the Jiang Clan have long been destroyed, how can the dead be resurrected. ”

"If it's not the Elder Spirits, who could it be?"

Bai Mei slapped the table and ordered: "No matter where this person from the Spirit Clan comes from, you must keep an eye on it, the Spirit Clan's bloodline, that is the spirit vein that can break the seal of the Lock Demon Tower, and you must not be sloppy." ”

Several other elders also realized the importance of the matter and were ready to deal with anything that might happen.

After discussing for a while, several elders of the Xingqi Academy took advantage of the night to ascend to the stargazing platform of the Xingqi Pavilion together, preparing to cast a spell to open the secret realm.

The stargazing platform is cast in the way of yin and yang, half of which absorbs the brilliance of the sun and half of the white light of the stars, gathering the aura of the sun, moon and stars to draw a gossip map.

Several elders sat in different hexagrams of the Bagua Array, the Qian's position was the sky, the Kun's position was the earth, Bai Mei sat in the Qian's position to control the secret realm and open the overall situation, and Chang Xu sat in the Kun position, together with the elders of other hexagram positions to cooperate with Bai Mei.

"Dry is the sky, Kun is the earth, the sun, moon and stars, the universe is reversed. ”

Several elders of the Star Chess Pavilion sat in different hexagrams in the Bagua Array of the Stargazing Platform, and after chanting a mantra for a while, they each played a ball of aura.

The aura gathers and soars into the sky.

The stars trembled slightly, and a bright moonlight bombarded down, straight into the stargazing platform of the Xingqi Pavilion, and in an instant, the darkness was dispelled, as if the day had reappeared.

The entrance to the secret realm of the Star Chess Pavilion was opened, and the moonlight floated.

Several elders sat motionless on their respective hexagram positions, closing their eyes and concentrating, like petrified statues, cooperating with a rather tacit understanding to maintain the entrance to the secret realm.

The person in charge of the Xingqi Pavilion saw that the secret realm had been opened, and immediately issued a proclamation, allowing everyone waiting to enter the secret realm immediately.

"The joint spell casting of the elders of the Star Chess Pavilion has opened the secret realm, please go in quickly, life and death are fate, I wish you good luck. ”

Seeing the magical moonlight shining on the stargazing platform of the Star Chess Pavilion, the people waiting had already guessed that the elders of the Star Chess Pavilion had borrowed the power of the moonlight to open the secret realm of power.

Without further ado, solve it quickly.

A team rushed to jump into the secret realm, full of expectations, hoping to catch a few treasures and become famous in the world after they came out.

Elder Niu Li, the leader of the Martial God Academy, shouted loudly and said, "After entering, follow the team closely, and let's go." ”

Captain Tietou, Sword Idiot, Butcher, Scholar, Black Hammer, and Substitute all jumped into the entrance of the secret realm with Elder Niu Li one after another, while Jiang Ling stood on the stargazing platform and paid attention to it, he found that the elders of the Star Chess Pavilion were sitting petrified in the Bagua Array, maintaining the operation of the formation, which was very strange, but he couldn't say why.

"Let's go in!" Jiang Ling plunged headlong into the secret realm.

In an instant, the sixteen people of the Martial God Academy held hands and shuttled through the secret passage, and when they got out of the secret passage, they were surprised to find that except for their teammates, the other teams around them were gone.

"The rest of the team was scattered, don't be surprised. Niu Li has entered the secret realm, and he still has some impressions of the environment inside, he said lightly.

Of the sixteen people in the Martial God Academy, only Niu Li had advanced through the secret realm, and the others had entered for the first time, so Niu Li's words became the truth at once.

The sixteen people of the Martial God Academy came out of the secret realm passage and were standing in a col with gravel piled up and sand and dust floating, everyone gathered together, and as far as the eye could see, there was a dense forest a few miles away.

Elder Niu Li said quietly: "Our current location is on the edge of the secret realm, and there is a forest a few miles away, which is called the Forest of Death. ”

"Could there be ghosts in the Forest of Death?" the butcher glared wide-eyed and looked into the distance.

"What are the ghosts afraid of? When the time comes, won't you just wield the enhanced version of the pig-killing knife and kill all the ghosts?" the scholar took out his brush and sword, sarcastically mocking the butcher.

"Dead Xiucai, you are amazing, I want to see if it is your chrysanthemum that stabs the ghost or the chrysanthemum that the ghost stabs you after you go in. The butcher replied with an unhappy face.

Jiang Ling's head spirit bone expanded the detection range, and he found that this secret realm was really different, and the aura of the light land was more than twice as abundant as that outside.

Niu Li coughed dryly and said, "The reason why the forest in front of you is called the Forest of Death is because thousands of years ago, hundreds of years ago, those masters who ventured into the secret realm died there, there were no ghosts, but there were rare fierce beasts, and even demon beasts that could speak. ”

The chain mail on the iron head's body returned to the secret realm again, and it seemed to have a sense of induction, shining, indicating that something unusual was about to happen.

Iron Head asked with interest, "Elder, are we going through the Forest of Death?"

After Black Hammer was persuaded, he was in a good mood and let go a lot, and he also asked, "Master, where will the other teams be scattered?"

Niu Li pondered for a while, recalled the last experience, and said: "Our goal is to pass through the Forest of Death and reach the Lock Demon Tower, and when we get there, we will obtain more precious treasures, as for the other teams, it is estimated that they will also be scattered to a certain place, regardless of them, in the secret realm, there are no friends, only interests." ”

Speaking of this, Niu Li deliberately looked at the sword idiot, and said slightly apologetic: "Sword idiot, when your father died in the Forest of Death, I and the old drunkard were also very guilty, your father was separated from the team, and he accidentally found the chain mail that the iron head is wearing now, and he wanted to bring it back to the team, but he was robbed and killed halfway, and when we rushed there, the man in black ran away, and your father still died of excessive blood loss." He didn't die in danger but he killed, specifically by killers disguised as other sects. ”

The sword idiot finally knew the cause of his father's death, he looked at the chain mail worn by the iron head, his eyes were wet, and he said fiercely: "I won't repeat the mistakes of the past." ”

Niu Li was also very worried that the sword idiot would be angry because of his father's death, so he left the team and searched for his father's body alone, and after getting this answer from the sword idiot, Niu Li breathed a sigh of relief and said: "You cooperate with the iron head to take care of the team, and when you go out, I will accept you as an apprentice." ”

It is a great honor to be accepted as an apprentice by Niu Li, and there are many people in the Southern Spirit Domain who are vying to worship Niu Li as a teacher, but Niu Li only accepts the Black Hammer alone.

This time, Niu Li personally promised that as long as he went out, he would accept the sword as an apprentice, and all of a sudden, he was envious of others.

Black Hammer secretly encouraged himself: "Hmph, when I catch a few treasures, I will still be the master's most proud apprentice." ”
