The red lotus bloomed in the quiet room, and the temperature soared, but the wooden planks of the tables and chairs in the room were not damaged at all.

Karmic fire is a type of heart flame soul fire, which usually does not kill enemies with the power of flames, but often directly burns the soul.

The fire lotus disappeared in a blink of an eye, and along with Zhao Sheng's figure.

"Not good!" Seeing this, the short-bearded old man's expression was very ugly. Immediately snatched the door out.

At the same time, in a secret room under the Great Sun Temple, the ground suddenly sunken, and an amiable old man emerged from the entrance of the cave and landed on the floor next to him.

This person is none other than Zhao Zhongque

He is a member of the Foundation Realm clan of the Nantian Zhao Clan, and his strength and qualifications are not ranked in the family at all.

Back then, in order to get a chance to be promoted to Jindan, Zhao Zhongque did not hesitate to smuggle into the Ghost God Realm and join the Anti-Heaven Alliance to lurk.

This lurking is a hundred years.

Zhao Zhongque is now 190 years old, and he sees that his life is approaching.

His greatest wish now is to return to his long-lost hometown before he dies, and it is best to be buried in the family cemetery in Longshou Mountain after death.

"It's a pity...... The 100-year gate has been missed. In this life, it is difficult to see the beautiful scenery of Xinglongyuan. Zhao Zhongque's expression was slightly lost, and there was a surging sadness in his heart.

Bang bang bang!

There was a sudden knock on the door of the secret room, and Zhao Zhong's eyes lit up, and he looked at the door with a look of vigilance.

"Who is it?"

The voice of questioning fell, and the door of the secret room opened silently, and an ordinary old man walked in from outside the door.

"Who are you? Quickly reveal your identity, otherwise you will blame the old man for being ruthless! ”

When Zhao Zhongque saw this person, his expression became even more cold, and with a flick of his right hand, a ray of silver light suddenly flew into the air, turning into a three-inch silver-white flying sword, and the sword at the tip of the sword was uncertain, aiming at the old man's head.

Zhao Sheng smiled slightly, spread out his palm, and slowly stretched it out, and instantly saw a layer of blood light suddenly appear in his palm.

The blood light quickly filled the entire secret room like flowing water, enveloping Zhao Zhongque and Zhao Sheng.

Suddenly, a seasonal movement originating from the depths of the bloodline emerged in the hearts of the two of them at the same time.

Zhao Zhongque sensed this, and the vigilance on his face was greatly reduced, but there was still a little bit of vigilance, and he couldn't help but say tentatively: "You... You are also a descendant of my Zhao family?! Which lineage does the ancestor come from? ”

Zhao Sheng nodded and said loudly: "Not bad!" The old Zhao Beixuan, the ancestor is indeed from the Nantian Zhao family. Thousands of years ago, my clan was unfortunately exiled in the Ghost God Realm, and they have been displaced for nearly a thousand years. If I hadn't been born with a spiritual root, so I would have embarked on the path of cultivation by chance, I am afraid that my soul would have returned to the netherworld sooner rather than later. ”

"Zhao Daoyou, you came too suddenly, and the old man was unprepared. Dare to ask you, is it to recognize your ancestors and return to your ancestors? Zhao Zhongque asked cautiously.

Zhao Sheng stepped into the secret room, and at the same time shook his head and said: "It's still early to recognize your ancestors and return to your ancestors, and the old man is not here for this, but to remind you."

Hearing him say this, Zhao Zhongqian felt a little confused in his heart, and was about to ask again, but saw a magic talisman flying from the opposite side.

"Look at this, and then talk about it."

Zhao Zhongque stretched out his hand and made a move, the illusion talisman obediently fell into his hand, and the spiritual power poured into the talisman, and a three-dimensional picture appeared in the secret room.

In the picture, Zhao Zhongque and a handsome and feminine young man are talking, and the facial features of the two are delicate and lifelike.

Zhao Zhongque only glanced at it, and was shocked: "This... Where did you get this from? ”

"Information source, you-"

Zhao Sheng had just said a few words, and suddenly stopped talking, while Zhao Zhongque's eyes moved, and his eyes turned to the door.

At this moment, a blue light flashed at the door of the secret room, and the short-bearded old road suddenly appeared there.

When he saw the situation in the room, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and quickly asked Zhao Zhongque, "Elder Zhao, it's okay if you're okay."

In the Anti-Heaven Alliance, Zhao Zhongque's identity is a bit special, because he was born in the Nantian Zhao clan.

The Nantian Zhao clan is one of the top forces that have supported the Reverse Heaven Alliance behind the scenes.

The short-bearded old man was born in the Haoran Sect, so he naturally knew very well how the Nantian Zhao clan was in the Heavenly Pillar Realm, and his power was monstrous.

Zhao Sheng saw that someone was coming, so he decided to make a long story short, and immediately said to Zhao Zhongque: "You have been targeted by the people of the Shendu Wang family. Here's the information for the people who came, you can take it and take a look. ”

Speaking of this, Zhao Sheng's cuffs were raised, and a thumb-sized crystal bead flew out, and then was grabbed by Zhao Zhongqing.

"I'll come back to you in the future. Today's business, let's take my leave. ”

After speaking, a red fire lotus rose from under his feet, enveloping Zhao Sheng's body and blocking the sight of the two

The divine light in Zhao Zhongque's eyes flashed, and the Zhuji Divine Consciousness spread out from the center of his eyebrows, but when he touched the red fire, the Divine Consciousness was instantly annihilated.

Suddenly, the fire lotus is gone, and people have gone to the underworld.

Zhao Zhongque's eyes showed a look of shock, and he exclaimed: "Karmic Fire Red Lotus?!" This person is actually a thief of the Heavenly Dao Sect. ”

That being said, he had some hope for someone to come.

"That's right! Xiao Dao just wanted to remind Elder Zhao, but he might as well let this thief go too fast. The short-bearded old man echoed.

After speaking, he said again: "Elder Zhao, this stronghold is no longer safe. Otherwise, let's change places! Otherwise, once someone touches the door, there will inevitably be heavy casualties. ”

Zhao Zhongque thought for a moment, nodded and said, "You are right. Recently, there are a number of important materials and several important people in the alliance who need to transit through Chu Guocheng. In order to avoid accidents, this base is temporarily unusable. According to the emergency plan of the alliance, the reserve base will be activated immediately. The rest of the personnel were withdrawn in batches and dispersed to the prefectures below to secretly lurk, waiting for a signal to reawaken later. ”

"Elder Zhao has arranged it very properly, and Poor Dao will do it."

As he spoke, the short-bearded old path had turned into a blue light, and disappeared into the underground secret passage in an instant.

In the secret room, Zhao Zhongque was silent, his divine sense penetrated into the crystal bead, and in an instant, a picture and several pieces of information poured into his mind at the same time.

... Wang... Li Jing is a spy of the Heavenly Prison Division, and has signed a soul contract... Communication...

……

After reminding Zhao Zhongque, Zhao Sheng returned to Zhao's mansion and showed his face, and at the same time pointed out Zhao Hongyun by the way.

With the on-demand broadcast of him, a martial artist, Zhao Hongyun's martial arts cultivation can be called leaps and bounds, and he has only practiced martial arts for three years, and his internal qi has already entered the room.

If his body is not fully grown, his strength is not inferior to that of a first-class player.

In the past few years, due to Zhao Sheng's covert protection, the lives of Zhao Xing and Zhao Tai's families have become more and more prosperous, and the business of Zhao Mansion has also been booming.

A few years ago, the Wamu Gang he set up was also expanding in power, and several market gangs and a large number of gangsters had taken the initiative to join in, and their sphere of influence included the entire Wamufang and the surrounding seven or eight streets.

The Wamu Gang Leader and several Dharma Protector Elders were all innate martial artists, and there were also two loose cultivators in the middle stage of Qi refining who were secretly in charge.

These two casual cultivators were subdued by Zhao Sheng, he only revealed a little divine sense, and then he casually sent out two foundation-level double cultivation exercises, which made the two of them happy and convinced of him.

With the protection of the Wamu Gang, even if Zhao Sheng does not show up, the safety of the Zhao Mansion does not need to worry about him.

After showing up, Zhao Sheng ordered his subordinates to retreat and enter the bedroom alone to rest.

It is said that it is resting, but in fact people have returned to the divine hell.

On this day, it was Zhao Sheng's turn to patrol the sixteenth floor of the prison, and at the same time a cell was assigned.

The forbidden enchantment cracked, the double prison doors opened one by one, and Zhao Sheng, dressed in black armor and holding a soul whip, stepped in.

Inside, the cell looked cramped, and a huge majestic body like a beast in the depths of the cell took up most of the space.

The prisoner was covered with dense golden hair, his head was as big as a pot, there was a bloody mouth on it, his nose was like a lion's nose bulging, his eyes were as big as copper bells flashing with fierce light, his head was full of blond hair and fluffy and unassuming, and the whole person was like a lion, fierce and wild.

Even if he is on death row in the Divine Prison, even if he is full of myeloid sucking nails, this flirt still reveals a sense of unruliness.

"Boom, finally someone is here again. This king is impatient to wait. Whip me a few lashes to relieve the itch, these broken nails suck the king all over his body. ”

Zhao Sheng ignored this person's nonsense, only took a few steps forward, and reached out to pull out a myeloid nail.

"Haha, happy! Pull out a few more roots, and let this king loosen quickly. ”

Zhao Sheng took out a porcelain bottle, stretched out the nail head of the myeloid suction nail into the bottle, and poured spiritual power into the magic weapon, only to see that the nail head quickly condensed a drop of pith blood beads that were as red as a diamond, and dripped into the bottom of the bottle.

He inserted the nail back into the prisoner's body, and pulled out another one to concoct it in the same way.

After a while, there was a small half bottle of crystal marrow blood in the bottle.

During the blood collection, this third-order god disciple who was like a golden lion king quickly scolded in pain from arrogance, and then screamed again and again, and finally his breath was dying, and he no longer had the initial arrogance.

Zhao Sheng withdrew the blood vial, and there were a few more bottles of colorful pills in his hand.

He didn't care whether the prisoner lived or died, but just forced a few bottles of pills into the prisoner's mouth, and then connected a few tricks to force the prisoner to swallow it.

"Woo, when this king goes out, he must break your body into ten thousand pieces. Emperor Fuxian save me! ”

The prisoner's face was full of hideousness, and he suddenly roared loudly, and his body struggled hard, causing the chains all over his body to vibrate, and suddenly burst into dazzling lightning.

】

Zizi!

A smell of meat quickly filled the cell, but this third-order divine disciple known as the "Golden Lion King" seemed to be unaware, his huge body struggled violently and swayed, and with the power of his physical body alone, he also brought out a turbulent flow of air.

"Hey, you're very energetic! Here, a new package for you. Zhao Sheng teased, and then pinched the magic trick with both hands, and a stream of spiritual light flew out one after another, submerging into the body of this fang.

In an instant, the Golden Lion King's body stiffened, and he lost consciousness, and then a fist-sized bulge gradually bulged from the center of his eyebrows.

Seeing this, Zhao Sheng stopped his movements, and then took out a black egg the size of a sesame seed from the Nakong seal.

Sticking out and cutting a hole in the bulge, blood burst out.

Zhao Sheng flicked his fingers, and the black egg lightning sank into the bulge from the bloody mouth.

He unleashed a rejuvenation technique and healed the wound.

At this time, the bulge was visibly reduced, and in the blink of an eye, the prisoner's chest had returned to normal, but his blonde hair had turned white, as if he was much older.

The black egg is the egg of the ghost Gu, not only this one. Zhao Sheng directly auctioned the entire ghost nest from the black market auction house.

Ghost Gu originates from ghost things, it is a strange Gu in the ghost god world, after this Gu is born, the body is between life and death, the most secret.

The reason why Zhao Sheng secretly planted a ghost Gu for the Golden Lion King stemmed from a bold plan by him.

As for what the plan is? At this point, it's just the beginning, so let's not talk about it for now.

Go out, close the cell, and restart the enchantment.

Zhao Sheng took the blood vial, walked out of the prison floor generously, and handed over the harvest to the prison captain Ren Zhong.

There are only a few prisoners on the 16th floor, and each prison guard is only one prisoner, which is still more than enough, so the work is very easy.

A shift lasts for four hours, and the prisoners cannot be brought in every day for "interrogation." Therefore, most of the time, the prison guards had to patrol back and forth in the middle of the prison corridors, which was extremely boring.

At this time, veteran prison guards usually have a little privilege to sneak around.

As long as things are not delayed, the prison warden will often turn a blind eye.

Don't look at Zhao Sheng's qualifications, but with a pair of fists, he is invincible in the Qi Refining Realm prison guards, and he has also won the privileges unique to the old qualifications.

The immortal cultivation world has been respected by the strong since ancient times, and it is no different in the divine prison!

……

And just like that, another half a year passed.

With Zhao Sheng's reminder, Zhao Zhongque successfully set a trap for Wang Hengxi, killed a wave of Wang family monks, and captured Wang Hengxi alive in one fell swoop.

At the same time, Zhao Zhongque also secretly discovered Li Jing's horse feet, but he did not immediately arrest this person, but did not move, and released some information that seemed to be true and false through Li Jing.

Zhao Sheng, who was secretly observing the trend of things, secretly praised in his heart after witnessing all this.

Judging from Zhao Zhong's lack of this person's ability and meticulousness, as well as his cultivation in the later stage of foundation building.

Now Xinglong Zhao is full of talents, and the overall strength is advancing by leaps and bounds. Otherwise, he would not be willing to send a member of the late foundation building clan to do such a dangerous thing.

Sure enough, in the secret meeting half a month later, Zhao Sheng successfully learned a lot of secret news from the gap in Zhao Zhong, some about the war between the two realms, and some about the Nantian Zhao clan, but most of them were talked about in general terms.

Even so, it was enough to make Zhao Sheng happy.

The reason why the Xinglongyuan Zhao family has the reputation of "Nantian Zhao Family" after a thousand years is mostly due to the fact that there is a great man in the clan.

Zhao Sheng didn't expect Jing'er to really be able to reach today's height.

Descend the dragon and subdue the demon Dazhenjun!

This is the reputation that Zhao Xuanjing gave to all the gods in the Heavenly Pillar Realm after he broke through the Heavenly Pass and successfully promoted to the realm of transforming gods.

The ancestor of the Transformation God Realm sits in Xinglongyuan, and the Zhao family's development speed is so fast and its power expansion is so strong that there is naturally no need to say more.

For more than a thousand years, the Xinglongyuan Zhao clan has rapidly expanded from a second-rate force to a real behemoth, and has simply suppressed the two major forces of the Danding faction and the Imperial Beast Sect in southern Xinjiang, and the sphere of influence is not limited to southern Xinjiang.

Due to the ancestral teachings left by the ancestors, the Zhao clan has continued to branch out and deviate from the branches for thousands of years, and now the Zhao clan has spread all over the Tianzhu Realm, and there are hundreds of millions of bloodline clansmen.

What Zhao Zhongque said was only public information, and he didn't say a word about the specific situation within the Zhao clan, such as how many Yuan Infant Ancestors, how many Jindan and Zhuji people there were.

Zhao Sheng naturally knew that the other party was still suspicious of him, and to put it bluntly, he didn't trust him.

However, Zhao Sheng not only did not get angry, but appreciated Zhao Zhongque even more.

When asked when the War of the Two Realms would end, Zhao Zhongque said calmly: "On the bright side, the War of the Two Realms officially ended 1,223 years ago. But in fact, although large-scale wars have stopped, small- and small-scale infiltration wars in the shadows are still going on, and they have continued since a thousand years ago. ”

Zhao Sheng had already had a premonition about this, so he was not surprised, and quickly asked again: "That... The end of the war between the two realms, could it be that the Heavenly Pillar Realm was defeated? Otherwise, how could there be so many disciples of the major sects in the Anti-Heaven Alliance. ”

Zhao Zhongque shook his head and said in a heavy tone: "In the end, this battle didn't really tell the winner. Although the space-time rift in the Heavenly Burial Plain has been resealed by the Realm, but-"

At this point, he suddenly stopped.

"But what?" Seeing this, Zhao Sheng immediately asked.

Zhao Zhongqi stopped talking, and suddenly asked, "Zhao Daoyou, do you believe that there are real gods in the world?"

"......" Zhao Sheng was speechless and choked.
